PARENTS are demanding a meeting with Red Hill Consolidated School principal Leanne Marshall over the serious gastro outbreak among pupils and staff just before the Easter holi-days.

More than 100 pupils and six staff were affected and the school was closed a day earlier than the scheduled break.

Balnarring primary school, a few kil-ometres from Red Hill Consolidated, has also had problems with contami-nated water recently.

A parent said junior students were directed to drink only from tanks sup-plying the grade 5-6 area.

The problem was resolved only after a fi ve-month battle with the Education Department, the parent said.

Red Hill parents now want to know why the school was not closed earlier, after it ran out of water.

They say children were unable to wash their hands after using the toilets – which could not be fl ushed – and the school was not providing water to the students.

Gastroenteritis can be caused by vi-ruses, bacteria, parasites and fungus and transmitted through improperly prepared foods, contaminated water, or close contact with an infected person.

One Red Hill parent claimed a group was told the school would not spend money on what “falls out of the sky”.

“Should a school be operating with-out water?” she asked.

“We were not informed,” another said. “There is a serious ongoing com-munication problem at the school. We are fed up with not being kept in-formed.

“They will be hoping it has all gone away over the holidays.”

The school is due to reopen on 11 April.

The News was unable to contact Ms Marshall.

Parents say they learned through unoffi cial channels that the school tank water level was allowed to drop below the required 50 per cent and that pumps and fi lters had not been ad-equately maintained.

Reasons given for the lack of water ranged from a plastic bag being stuck in the piping to an electrical fault.

Later, an Education Department offi -cial assured them the water was “fi ne”.

POLICE were called in to clear 15 grandmothers before allowing them into pre-arranged meeting at the Hast-ings offi ce of Flinders MP Greg Hunt.

The members of Southern Penin-sula Group of Grandmothers Against the Detention of Children presented a 400-signature petition to Mr Hunt which calls on the federal government to improve its treatment of refugees.

Ann Renkin said 15 members of the group were “checked out by two local and two federal police” before meeting Mr Hunt who “appeared unmoved by the arguments presented”.

She said the high number of signa-tures collected over a four-week period “refl ects the consternation of many or-dinary Australians who are concerned about the negative effects of long-term detention on the health and wellbeing

of the refugees in these centres”. “The condition of the centre on Na-

uru, where the Australian government is spending many thousands of dol-lars, was also a matter of great concern which we put to Mr Hunt.”

Mr Hunt described the 24 March meeting with the grandmothers as “an open forum where members of the group were invited to share their con-cerns with me”.

“It was an open and honest discus-sion and I appreciated them taking the time to share their views with me,” Mr Hunt said.

Blaming the former Labor govern-ment for the number of children in de-tention, he said the federal government “is determined to reduce the number of children in detention to zero”.

“The latest update is that the number of children in detention in Australia has dropped to just 17,” Mr Hunt said.

“Regional processing centres, such as Nauru, are open centres where asy-

lum seekers are free to move around the island at their will.

“All people transferred and accom-modated at offshore processing centres are treated with dignity and respect and in accordance with human rights stand-ards.”

The grandmothers’ petition urges the Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull and Immigration Minister Peter Dutton to let the 267 refugees from Nauru cur-rently in Australia stay; process their refugee claims in Australia; close the Manus Island and Nauru detention centres; and to provide permanent pro-tection for refugees.

The grandmothers say reports from the Human Rights Commission, and health and educational professionals, show that ongoing detention among refugees offers them little hope for the future and causes mental and physical illnesses.

Ms Renkin said Mr Hunt told the group that the government had cut to

29 the number of children in centres. But the delegation emphasised that the children were still in detention – and that this number did not include those on Nauru.

The group voiced its concerns over the time it takes to assess a refugee’s status, which “compares badly” with those of similar countries, such as Canada.

When asked about the reported det-rimental effects on the physical and mental health of children in detention, he said several times that it “was worse to die at sea”, Mrs Renkin said.

“He did not agree government poli-cies were causing harm and was not prepared to discuss numbers in Nauru.

“He repeated several times that the current government had reduced the numbers of children and families in de-tention, and that the ALP had had much higher numbers when in government.

“He asked where the grandmothers were when this was the situation, and intimated that we were ALP support-

ers, which we disputed.” Mr Hunt told the group he had

worked in refugee camps overseas in “appalling conditions”. He said condi-tions on Nauru were satisfactory and listed facilities there.

Mrs Renkin said the minister “gave us time and the opportunity to ask questions and state our positions … but he did not seem to change his attitudes or take note of facts and comments we made during the conversation”.

“His answers and comments were repeated several times, and he seemed unable to move with the conversation,” Ms Renkin said.

“He seemed impervious to the hard-ships the refugees face and that they are in limbo about their futures.”

Mr Hunt agreed to take the petition to the Prime Minister and Mr Dutton in Canberra.

Police checks before MP meets granniesStephen [email protected]

A LOVE of stamps was nurtured in Jon Fladeby when he was a young boy in his native Norway.

The seven year old was encouraged by his grandfather to appreciate his country’s stamps and to develop and maintain a worthwhile collection. It became an absorbing hobby and the basis of a lifelong interest.

As a teenager and then getting married, meant there was a lack of time and opportunity.

Mr Fladeby’s love of stamps remained “on the shelf” while he and his family established them-selves in Australia in the early 1970s and moved to Mt Martha when he retired in the early 1990s.

Fortunately, a visit from his mother and sister bringing with them a container-load of possessions, including his original stamp collection, brought the passion fl ooding back.

“I was reunited with my stamps and became en-thusiastic again,” the former research scientist said.

“A neighbour at the time was the president of the Peninsula Stamp Club and things snowballed from there.”

Now, as secretary of the same club, the philat-elist has thousands of valuable, mostly-Norwegian, stamps all securely stored in a bank’s strong room.

So extensive is Mr Fladeby’s collection that he regularly exhibits overseas and is now preparing for an international exhibition in New York next month.

Of special interest are Norwegian stamps from the

1870s, dating from before the country’s switch from the former shilling to the decimal currency kronor.

“The best is the last of the pre-decimals,” Mr Fladeby said.

The country has a long history in stamps. The fi rst postage stamp in 1855 depicted the coat of arms. In 1871, stamps with a posthorn design were intro-duced and stamps of this type, with periodic rede-signs, have been used ever since. The posthorn is the logo of national post services in many countries.

To get to the 28 May-4 June New York exhibition, Mr Fladeby’s and other exhibitors’ stamps will be accompanied by a special stamp commissioner, who is based in Canberra, both for their safety and to negotiate Customs.

The exhibition is run by the Fédération Interna-tionale de Philatélie (FIP), which was founded in 1926 to be the world federation for philately based in Switzerland.

His previous showings have been in Calcutta and Delhi, as well as Singapore, Bangkok and Manilla.

“Exhibitions are designed to promote stamp col-lections, as they are wonderful to look at,” said Mr Fladeby, who also buys and sells when inclined.

“From 40-60 dealers arrange to buy and sell stamps, as well as promote them and give talks on special issues.”

Awards are based on points earned and to help make all the effort worthwhile.

“I certainly get a lot of satisfaction from exhibit-ing and it gives me and my wife [Leslie] the chance to take a holiday to somewhere we have never been, this time the east coast of the US.”

The good mail: Mt Martha’s Jon Fladeby will exhibit his stamp collection in New York next month. Picture: Yanni

AT ROSEBUD HOTEL

Continued from Page 1The Education Department’s senior

media advisor Alex Munron said on Friday that the school became aware of water fl ow problems after school hours on Thursday 17 March.

He said debris was found blocking a pump valve and causing the low pres-sure and the water was shut off for 10-20 minutes the following morning to repair a water pump.

“That same day, following calls from parents, the department con-tacted the school to ensure there was water available for students. By this time water fl ow had been restored to the entire school,” Mr Munro said.

“The school’s water level is regular-ly monitored and as a precaution water was carted in, but at no time did the school run out of water.”

The school water supply and food preparation were prime suspects.

Mornington Peninsula Shire issued a statement saying the departments of education and health were working with it “to investigate and respond to [the] outbreak”.

It continued: “As of Tuesday 22 March, the school reports that there were over 106 pupils and six staff ab-sent from the school due to illness.”

The outbreak highlighted “the im-portance of hygiene measures like hand-washing,” the statement said.

Once authorities were satisfi ed there was no further risk, “the school will communicate with the community to confi rm arrangements for the normal commencement of schooling after the holidays”, the shire statement said.

A parent said the school needed to be accountable for its spending deci-sions.

“Half the school has recently been painted, the staff room has a new kitchen, there are new fl at-screen TVs everywhere, but it seems provision of something as basic as clean water for children has been a low priority.”

Parents worry over gastro outbreak

PENINSULA Health’s clinical director of emergency medicine Dr Shyaman Menon knows timing is everything when it comes to medical emergencies.

Many elderly Mornington Penin-sula residents use a personal pendant alarm and emergency button to call for immediate care if they are in medical trouble.

Until now, the personal alarm pen-dant has been limited to use at home, operating through an extra socket to an existing phone line.

Out and about: This new pendant alarm could work in any location.

Health service trials new ‘go-anywhere’ alarmBut this is set to change with a

new alarm pendant designed to work anywhere – in the supermarket, at the park, even on the golf course.

“This is an outstanding techno-logical development which could potentially revolutionise healthcare, particularly in the elderly,” Dr Menon said.

“The fact that a personal alarm sys-tem is being trialled to operate in any location has the potential to reduce the time from symptom onset to hospi-tal presentation for a broad range of

medical conditions.”Peninsula Health’s clinical director

of aged care medicine Dr Peter Lynch said falls, faints and “collapsing at-tacks” posed a major problem for the elderly.

“Injuries sustained during a fall or faint could jeopardise a person’s well-being and level of function,” Dr Lynch said.

“A fall or faint may lead to frac-tures, lacerations, internal bleeding, all requiring increased health care,” Dr Lynch said.

“While a personal alarm system can’t prevent a fall, it can ensure the patient is urgently given the emergen-cy response and treatment they need.”

The pendant will operate anywhere if the user has an android phone con-nected to Bluetooth. It can be worn around the neck or on a watch band.

The new technology will be trialled by 100 clients this month.

“We eagerly await the results of this initial pilot study but the potential for this technology is huge,” Dr Menon said.

A CHARITY golf day at Portsea Golf Club, Friday 22 April, will raise funds for Southern Peninsula Food for All’s new storeroom at Rosebud.

In its 25th year, the organisation has packed and distributed more than 51,000 weekly food parcels for the needy all over the peninsula.

At $150 per person, the Ambrose tournament is an opportunity to play on a links course among sand dunes adjoining Point Nepean National Park.

Mornington Peninsula Shire mayor Cr Graham Pittock will host the day which includes a breakfast roll and coffee before the shotgun start at 8.30am. After the game there is a buffet lunch in the club-house, recognition of sponsors and presentation of prizes, as well as a silent auction.

“With the demand for emergency food parcels continuing to grow each year, Southern Peninsula Food for All has been forced to fi nd larger premises to pack food parcels for those in need,” Cr Pittock said.

“I encourage any member of the community to participate by play-ing, sponsoring or donating.”

Entries close Friday 15 April. Call shire communications manager Mark Kestigian on 5950 1200 or email [email protected]

Time for breaky before teeing off for charity

MAJOR changes are being made to Mornington Peninsula Shire Council strategic plan just over year before its stated expiry date.

The 2013-17 Council Plan has been revised following a number of changes in the composition of the council and its senior staff.

The mayor Cr Graham Pittock says the revisions acknowledge work al-ready completed under the plan “and seeks to be more specifi c on major ini-tiatives to progress the goals of council and its community”.

The current plan was adopted under the leadership of long serving CEO Dr Michael Kennedy, who ended his 15-year tenure in November 2014.

His replacement, Carl Cowie, states

that the new organisational structure introduced since his December 2014 appointment was designed to “better support and implement the council’s vision”.

“With constrained revenue oppor-tunities [caused by the state govern-ment], our primary goal is to look for better ways to deliver high quality ser-vices as effi ciently as possible and to extract the best value for our commu-nity,” Mr Cowie states in the revised council plan.

“Delivering value to our community is our priority focus. The shire has also embraced SeeChange; an ethos that puts our customers’ needs and expec-tations at the centre of our daily work.”

Cr Pittock said revising the plan would enable “the continued delivery of council's vision for the community, in an increasingly effi cient and cus-tomer-focused way”.

He said feedback from the public would be welcome.

A shire news release council moved to update the plan in November last year “to better refl ect is current strate-gic framework”.

"The Council Plan is an important strategic document used to commu-nicate our goals to the community, to guide the development of strategy, and to prioritise projects and plans,” Cr Pit-tock said.

"The revised Council Plan incorpo-rates the signifi cant policy and strate-gic work completed by council during the current term of offi ce, expresses present major initiatives, and acknowl-edges current challenges.”

During his acceptance speech after be-ing elected mayor Cr Pittock listed the council’s commitment to carbon neutral-ity among its “current challenges”.

In keeping with this priority Cr Pit-

tock, Cr Hugh Fraser and renewable resources team leader Jess Wingad rep-resented the shire at the United Nations climate talks in Paris in December.

Cr Pittock and Cr Fraser are yet to table reports of their Paris trip with council.

Other challenges listed by the mayor include: Balanced economic, transport and port development. Protecting the green wedge and sup-porting reusable water. Quality planning to protect the amen-ity and character of our townships. Finalising a rating strategy.

The deadline for written submissions to the revised Council Plan 2013-2017 is 4 May and should be mailed to An-drew Wood, Corporate Planning Offi c-er, Private Bag 1000, Rosebud. Details www.mornpen.vic.gov.au/revisedcoun-cilplan

FISHING is good for the soul and sometimes the sole and that certainly proved to be the case again last Friday (1 April) when That’s the Thing about Fishing founder Glenn Cooper hosted a fi shing expedition for disabled and disadvantaged children at Frankston pier.

Budding anglers from Frankston, Hastings, Morning-ton and Patterson Lakes enjoyed a morning out casting rods into the waters off Frankston beach.

Mr Cooper, dubbed ‘Guru’, has run the fi shing events for several years.

“The kids pay nothing, get fed and have a great day out,” he said.

Special needs groups from around the south east bussed in to take part in the School Holiday Autumn Clinic.

Prizes were handed out for the best and biggest fi sh caught on the day but it was mostly about providing a great day’s entertainment out in the fresh sea air.

See thatsthethingaboutfi shing.org.au for details about its work helping people battling mental health issues, disability groups, youth in trouble, men and women’s health groups and people suffering depression.

Mornington Peninsula’s No.1 Solar Company.Unbeaten on value, quality and workmanship. Deal direct with the electrician.

PLANS have been unveiled to com-plete a major piece of the Martha Cove marina and residential jig saw puzzle-like development at Safety Beach.

Known as the Martha Cove Village Centre, the 6.4 hectare site includes a “marina hub” with a cafe and support facilities and services for the marina, one 1000 square metre shop, several small shops and a 200-seat restaurant.

But by far the largest part of the site is devoted to housing: 215 apartments and 100 “townhomes”.

A public space – Anchorage Park – is separated from the marina itself by a block of three-storey apartments and lies between the three-level homes to be built on lots 01 and 06.

In 2002, City Pacifi c estimated de-veloping Martha Cove as one project would cost $650 million, including 900 residences and 600 marina berths.

Since then the company has col-lapsed and parcels of the original Mar-tha Cove land have been sold and de-veloped by separate companies.

The latest proposal is outlined in a large, glossy 168-page Martha Cove Village Centre Development Plan Re-port.

The plan shown to Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors outlines a proposed staged development and is described as being “a holistic tool different from previous documents for the centre”.

The proposal is described as “a contemporary interpretation of the peninsula character”, and cites devel-

opments in Florida, Sweden, France, Spain, Perth and Queensland (Paradise Point) under the heading “Project Ex-emplars + Precedence”.

Federal MP, developer and mining magnate Clive Palmer has a prop-erty at Paradise Point, which is at the Broadwater on the Gold Coast.

The village centre for Martha Cove is also described as “a habitat of mod-ern lifestyle inspired by the spirit of the Mornington Peninsula”.

The proponent for the Martha Cove village centre is listed as Denarke Pty

Ltd ATF Martha Cove Vineyard No. 1 Trust, a company which is also selling housing sites and boat berths at nearby Brindabella Point, one of the residen-tial arms extending into the marina. Denarke bought the land in 2014.

The village centre site is proposed to be subdivided into 13 “superlots”, either for apartments, “townhomes” or shops.

In one part of the document setbacks are described as “minimal” so they will “contribute to the urban character of the village centre”. Further on in the

document most superlot setbacks are described as “zero”.

There are also extra opportunities with each superlot development, rang-ing from tree planting to adding granny fl ats, studios and fl ats above garages.

The design, which “echoes age-old patterns of waterfront villages”, in-cludes four three-storey “touch point” buildings (apartments) with semi-cir-cular frontages.

The developers say “interim activi-ties” will be held in the shops if they initially prove to be economically un-

viable.An electric punt is proposed to pro-

vide access to the southern part of the marina.

Councillors were shown the docu-ment during a briefi ng by Denarke representatives on 27 January.

The developers want to amend an existing planning permit and, accord-ing to statutory planning manager Ni-all Sheedy, have been asked to provide more details.

The developers say provisions of the Mornington Peninsula Planning Scheme do not “directly control” use and development of the site, but con-cede “it does still contain some use and built form controls that cannot be exceeded”.

The developers want to increase building heights to 10 metres, two me-tres more than allowed under the cur-rent planning permit.

They point out that building heights relate to natural ground levels which, for much of the site, is above the ex-isting levels because of earthworks. There is no depth restriction for cel-lars.

The developers say the privately owned green wedge land to the east of the proposed village centre offers scope for “extensive passive and ac-tive recreation activities”.

A boat launching ramp, car park-ing and marina-related buildings are already operating within the green wedge land.

They say the “vision and master plan” was developed with the clients and project team engaging with the shire’s design review panel.

THE play Dead Men Talking, featur-ing Max Cullen and Warren Fahey as Henry Lawson and A B “Banjo” Pat-erson, will be held 7.30pm, Thursday 21 April, at the Pearcedale hall.

As authors and playwrights, Lawson and Paterson emerged at a time when storytellers could talk to ordinary people in their own language and at their own levels.

They took the old bush stories and

songs and gave them back in a col-loquial literary catalogue that bridged the gap between bush and city.

The one act stage musical devised by Cullen and scripted by the two men, shows Lawson and Paterson having a casual drink at the Leviticus Bar & Grill, Heaven's Gate, and yarn-ing about their legacies. They come across as slightly cantankerous, yet grateful for their old friendship.

They discuss each other’s lives, in-cluding their famous “War of Words” in The Bulletin. They recite poems, sing songs and generally banter and laugh about life’s changing circum-stance.

Tickets are $35, with profi ts going to Pearcedale CFA. Bookings: 5978 7892 or email [email protected]

A DVD of the show is also avail-able.

Literary gems: Actors and authors Max Cullen and Warren Fahey, as Henry Lawson and A B “Banjo” Paterson, will perform Dead Men Talking at Pearcedale hall this month.

A tale of two wordsmithsA NEW centre has been added to Australian Unity’s Peninsula Grange Retirement Community. It was opened last week by Dunkley MP Bruce Billson.

The centre, in Racecourse Rd, Mornington, means residents can experience “resort-style living” in one of Victoria’s most famous coastal regions, says Australian Unity Independent & Assisted Living CEO Derek McMillan.

“Residents can enjoy the backdrop of contemporary coastal living now made even better by superb commu-nity facilities,” he said.

“The bayside location is the obvious

drawcard for having our facility on the Mornington Peninsula. More than being picture perfect, we think life behind the scenes for all residents is equally as important.”

Mr Billson said: “Older Australians deserve access to great facilities and this addition to Peninsula Grange will add to the experience of residents here. Who wouldn’t want to live here on the beautiful Mornington Peninsula?”

The retirement community is along-side the Peninsula Grange Aged Care residence. It has an indoor heated pool, gym and a library, communal dining area with bar, games room and multi-purpose room.

Living it up: Bruce Billson hams it up with Peninsula Grange Retirement Community resident Norman and CEO Derek McMillan.

DELEGATES from the Peninsula Ad-visory Committee for Elders (PACE) attended the fourth National Elders Abuse Conference in Melbourne last month and said it delivered a number of positive outcomes.

“It was wonderful to hear the news from Attorney-General George Brandis that they are going to organise resources to look at senior abuse across Austral-ia,” PACE chair Jeanette Lane said.

“Age and Disability Discrimination Commissioner Susan Ryan also gave an outstanding speech on the progress of initiatives being planned which earned her a standing ovation from delegates.”

The topic of elder abuse has special relevance for the Mornington Penin-sula, where more than 10 per cent of the population is aged over 75 years.

PACE was established in 2006 on the recommendation of the Elder Citizens in the Community Strategy to advise the shire on how best to meet current and future needs of the elderly.

Ms Lane said she was delighted to hear that the Mornington Peninsula was “leading the way” in educating the community on elderly abuse. “The work that has been done and problems that have been solved over the past fi ve years by PACE on seniors’ abuse has put the Mornington Peninsula way

ahead of other shires,” she said. “This is according to an interactive

panel of government and police rep-resentatives from all states outlining their respective achievements.”

On World Elder Abuse Day last June, PACE members set up stalls at the Plaza Rosebud, and Benton Square, Mornington, and spoke to residents on seniors’ abuse and handed out information and advice to assist those in need.

“Communicating information to elderly residents [suffering abuse] is one of the most diffi cult aspects in reducing the problem,” Ms Lane said.

“The conference has enabled us to see where we stand relative to our peers across Australia and internationally.

“It has also provided an opportunity to make new contacts and exchange information to our mutual benefi t.”

PACE runs programs on elderly abuse at Rosebud, Hastings and McRae. “With frightening statistics from Seniors Rights Victoria report-ing that more than 90 per cent of all elderly abuse cases are by a relative, it is imperative that we provide this service and draw attention to the prob-lem,” Ms Lane said.

Older Victorians experiencing elder abuse can get help from Seniors Rights Victoria, call 1300 368 821. The offi ce is open 10am-5pm, Mon-day to Friday. Visit seniorsrights.org.au

STANDING in the open doorway of a pitching helicopter, spraying machine gun bullets while ducking enemy fi re, was once a day at the offi ce for Vietnam war air gun-ner Ian “Slug” Wilson, of Mornington.

He was one of 40 Royal Australian Navy and nine Australian Army personnel to fl y combat missions as door gunners on helicopter troop carriers with the 135th US Army Assault Helicopter Company 1967-1971.

It was dangerous work for the crews and, while the confl ict fi nished a long time ago, this veteran is still coming to grips with the emotional scars that have changed his life.

First it was withstanding the terror of war and fl ying air missions against a determined enemy, and then it was the ignominy of coming home to an Australia that had turned its back on the war and those who participated.

A presentation ceremony of “retro-spective recognition awards” at HMAS Cerberus last week has gone some way towards easing the pain and reuniting those who fought and those who sent them there.

Mr Wilson, one of seven veterans hon-oured, received his wings and a certifi cate which reads: “In recognition of service while participating in sustained aerial fl ight in support of allied combat ground forces in the Republic of South Vietnam.

“During the period, he participated in aerial missions over hostile territory to support operations against communist aggression. During these fl ights, conducted

by day and night, in fair weather and foul, he displayed a high order of air discipline and acted in accordance with the best traditions of military service in a role for which he volunteered to contribute to the accomplishment of the tasked mission, in spite of the hazards inherent in repeated aerial fl ights over hostile territory.

“By his professionalism and devotion to duty, he has brought great credit upon himself, the Royal Australian Navy and Australia.”

Mr Wilson, 72, who was an aircraft mechanic seconded to the US forces dur-ing the confl ict, said frustration at the lack of public recognition on coming home was “still in the back of my mind”.

“We were blamed for going there and it took a long time to get recognition from the Navy,” he said yesterday.

“Even some RSL clubs were pretty nasty.”

He has received awards including the Air Medal, and the US military force’s “Wings”.

A Somerville resident for 20 years, Mr Wilson worked as an aircraft mechanic at Tyabb airport, Bib Stillwell Aviation and later Boeing after returning from Vietnam in 1970.

But the onset of post traumatic stress dis-order had caused him to relive the confl ict in recent years, bringing on panic attacks. Although now a TPI pensioner his days are busy: “I drive for Peninsula Transport As-sist and join in at the men’s shed and I’ve volunteered over the past 12 years at the Phillip Island Vietnam Veterans’ Museum,” he said. “You’ve got to keep active.” Time heals: Vietnam Veteran Able Seaman Rtd Ian Wilson receives his Helicopter Flight Vietnam Gunner Wings from

Commander Max Speedy (ret), during a ceremony at HMAS Cerberus last week.

WILL Lewin (left) had a good reason to grin – his horse, Willice Park Magpie, pulling a beautifully restored conveyance, had been twice awarded at the Red Hill Show on Saturday, 26 March.

“Magpie”, to his friends, is a gypsy cob cross, said to be “arguably the most personable horse in the world”. He was pulling a long shaft brake containing his owner, plus Red Hill ward

councillor Tim Wood (centre) and Mornington Peninsula Shire mayor Graham Pittock.

Cr Pittock nominated Magpie and his rig as the Mayor’s Choice. They were also declared Cham-pion Exhibit on the oval in the Grand Parade.

Prizes for the ever-popular “heavy horse” categories were donated by the Hawkes family of Boneo, for many years local produce growers and devotees of working horses. David Harrison

‘Planning disaster’So Mornington Peninsula Shire fi ned a woman $15,000 for illegally clearing land (“Court win may signal shire’s new hard line”, The News 22/3/16). Well whoopee-doo! I received no response to my objection concerning demolish-ment of an iconic Norfolk pine in a planned development over the back of my place. Without notice, chain saws started ripping into it.

At a meeting urgently requested by my neighbour and me, the town planner informed us of a bushfi re overlay which entitles anyone to clear private residential land without a permit or notice presumably anywhere in Mornington.

Seemingly with no restrictions in acts of mass vandalism, good solid old houses, some with beautiful gardens containing fabulous oak trees and Norfolk pines among others, are being destroyed by developers racing in like sharks at a feeding frenzy. They are being replaced by as many two storey units that can be squeezed on a block, many overshadowing neighbouring back yards.

With square metres being measured in dollars, so-called double garages can scarcely fi t two cars without thumping doors against each other. Parked cars now clog streets making opposite passing impossible.

Kids have nowhere to safely play where once there were large back yards specifi cally planned for that purpose.

Mornington is going through a planning disas-ter which will permanently obliterate its ambient residential seaside character. Good one council.

Austin Sadler, Mornington

‘Amazing’ developmentAs a fairly new resident of lovely Mornington I was amazed the developer was allowed to build what I regard as a three-storied monstrosity in Barkly St. Surely this prime location would have been better utilised with buildings that matched surrounding houses.

I hope this area will not become the problem area for police in the coming years.

R Finnis, Mornington

Disturbing developmentsI have been in, and visited Mornington for more than 50 years, and have now lived in this pleas-ant and friendly town for 12 years. The town has developed from a small village to a vibrant bayside spreading community, pleasant, and friendly place to be.

However I am distressed to observe the con-struction in the remains of Pearson St, Morning-ton, which appeared initially to be a single row of units, but has now become a four row block of boxes, reminiscent but worse than the Housing Commission developments of the 1960s.

We now see a mirror image beginning to ap-pear on the other side of Pearson St.

What form of council or control has allowed these so-called villa units to be dumped in the middle of Mornington? What horrors come next? Edmund Burke, Mornington

Crossed linesFirstly, I checked the date to make sure it wasn’t an April Fools Day joke, (“Dream sites for trainspotters”, The News 22/3/16). If you seri-ously think that living in a 1.1 hectare pocket of up to 34 dwellings, jammed between the railway line, the Somerville station and Frankston-Flinders Rd would be a desirable option, you are delusional.

Where are all these train afi cionados who enjoy kilometre long freight trains rumbling by all night. Who would build observation decks in order to watch trains? It was tongue in cheek, wasn’t it? Jennifer Ross, Somerville

Draft master planYour correspondent “Ban a help for boats” (Let-ters 29/3/16), overlooks the fact that the Morn-ington Peninsula Shire Council resolutions of 25 November 2013 and 14 December 2015 provide for council “in principle” approval, “input from further consultations” and, more recently, coun-cil approval of the “public exhibition of the draft Rye Foreshore Landscape Master Plan”.

This has now taken place. Also, there has been extensive consultation with Rye community

groups and agencies. The results of these consul-tations will be brought to council.

A major innovation of this draft plan has been its coordination with traffi c planning for the Rye township area. Council’s traffi c strategy engi-neers have provided expert traffi c management to the plan. They have built upon the foreshore master plan’s recommendations to work with Vi-cRoads on developing streetscape enhancements options for the Rye township.

VicRoads engineers have provided “in princi-ple” support for the traffi c management recom-mendations of the draft landscape master plan.

The state government has just announced a new four-year $10 million Port Phillip Bay Fund to support projects including water quality improvement, foreshore upgrades, dune stability works, amenity upgrades and wetland improve-ments.

Council’s detailed multi-disciplinary and inter-agency work developing this draft Rye Fore-shore Landscape Master Plan, involving many stakeholders and extensive community consulta-tion, will well place council in any application for funding from this new fund.

Hugh Fraser, councillor, Nepean Ward

Core promise, or notOne billion dollars over 10 years sounds reason-able and is better than the previous policy of government to destroy the renewable energy agency or the clean energy investment fund. One million dollars a year sounds great, but when compared to the billions handed to the worst pol-luters in the land for spurious carbon abatement ever year, it’s a pittance.

Hopefully, these funds will not be given to shonky private enterprise schemes dreamed up by people intending to rort the system. We have seen what happened to the privatisation of our TAFE education institutions.

Will Flinders MP Greg Hunt now become a little greener also and not allow any more reef destroying coal mining.?

And the biggest question of all, are these pro-posals core or non-core commitments?

Rupert Steiner, Balnarring Beach


Clear the airWinter is upon us and here we go yet again.

May I ask readers to be aware, sensitive and responsive to the smoke emitting from their log heater’s chimney this winter?

The fl urry of smoke can and does fi nd itself drifting into neighbours’ homes throughout the day and bedrooms at night. This is very unpleasant, not to mention unhealthy and surely could be avoided by regular maintenance.

Keeping our windows and doors closed is clearly unreason-able.

Direct approach to a neighbour may be not be prudent. Martin A Cooper, Mornington

New way for justiceAt a time of justifi able public interest and concern about the effectiveness of public spending, Australian Red Cross is launching a report calling on a new way to do justice – a way that redirects fi nite taxpayers’ funds into a more effective and humane system.

Known as justice reinvestment, at its heart is a system that channels some of the funds spent on imprisonment into crime prevention and community safety.

It’s more effective, more humane and it works.The report highlights the growing costs (currently about $3.5

billion a year) and inhumane effects of the climbing imprison-ment rates in a time of falling or steady crime rates. It also high-lights the failure of current approaches to address the underlying causes of crime or make communities safer.

We are calling for state and territory governments to adopt fi ve recommendations to improve the criminal justice system in Australia, in line with the justice reinvestment approach to achieve lower incarceration rates, reduced prison costs and stronger, safer communities. We also recommend that all gov-ernments commit to a signifi cant reduction in the appallingly high incarceration rates of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

It’s not a question of being hard or soft on crime; rather it’s being smart on crime.

Please read the report at www.redcross.org.au/justicereinvest and talk to your local elected representatives if you agree we can no longer afford to ignore this issue.

Penny Harrison, executive director,Australian Red Cross, Victoria

Call for helpFor the fi rst time since beyondblue was established in 2000,

we’re asking the community to help us continue to meet rising demand for our 24/7 support service by holding a beyondblue bash to raise funds.

We’ve had people who have walked from Melbourne to Syd-ney, paddled a board along the coast from Brisbane to Sydney and run backwards in a marathon, but a beyondblue bash can be easier and less physically demanding than any of those feats.

We’re encouraging people to come up with their own original ideas. The simplest are often the most successful. You don’t have to be able to bake, you could put a loose change jar in the offi ce, make a gold coin donation to wear casual blue clothes to school or work, ask your friends to knit blue squares to be made into a rug to be raffl ed at a community event, mark the boundary lines or goal squares in blue to raise money at your sports club’s beyondblue Bash. The possibilities are endless – but the results of your fundraising could be life-saving.

Every year more than one million people in Australia have depression; two million have anxiety. Every day around eight people die by suicide.

And because depression or anxiety can affect anyone at any time, it may be you or a family member who needs our help in the future and our support service will be there to assist.

Last year, contacts with the support service increased by 38 per cent. It costs an average $48 for one of beyondblue’s mental health professionals to respond to a person in need. We want to keep this free counselling service running. One call could save a life. One beyondblue bash could save many.

To become a beyondblue fundraiser go to www.beyondblue-bash.org.au to register.

Georgie Harman, CEO beyondblue

Earlier aboardI must correct a correspondent Mike Fogarty (“Back on board, briefl y”, Letters 22/3/16) when he writes that 1966 was the 50th anniversary of the entry of RAN Supplementary List Midship-men to HMAS Cerberus. The fi rst intake was actually 1 March 1964 when 24 young men arrived at Cerberus as part of the ini-tial Short Service Commission Seaman Offi cers training course SOTC1/64. We celebrated our 50th anniversary at Cerberus two years ago. J R Diffen, Torquay

MALCOLM Geier has been appointed the new chief executive offi cer of Port of Hasting Development Authority.

He replaces Michael Kennedy, the former CEO of Mornington Peninsula Shire, who held the position for six months.

Mr Geier has spent the past decade at the Port of Portland, the last six as business development manager.

The state government curtailed the activities of the authority after its election in November 2014, seeing a dramatic cut in its budget and loss of most of its staff.

Ports Minister Luke Donnellan, when announcing Mr Geier’s appointment, said the government supported Hastings being used as a “bulk port”.

He said Portland had seen “signifi cant increases in exports and volume” during Mr Geier’s tenure.

“The Port of Hastings is an important asset for Victoria’s grow-ing import and export market and offers signifi cant development opportunities for bulk industries, including the refi ned fuel, oil and gas industries,” Mr Donnellan said.

“Infrastructure Victoria will provide the government with advice regarding the preferred location for Victoria’s second container port. The advice will assess both Bay West and Hastings.

“Whilst Infrastructure Victoria are conducting their second container port assessment the government expects the Port of Hast-ings to pursue non-container related business with the support of regional councils and businesses.”

Film aids refugeesA FILM being shown in Mornington next week will aid the Refu-gee Council of Australia and Amnesty International.

The fi lm On the Banks of the Tigris: the Hidden Story Of Iraqi Music was produced by Melbourne fi lmmakers Marsha Emerman and Majid Shokor.

It was released in October to some acclaim at Australian and for-eign fi lm festivals, with limited release in local cinemas, but won fi rst prize at the Baghdad International Film Festival.

The plot: “When Majid Shokor escaped from Iraq, he discovered that many of the songs he loved as a child in Baghdad were written or performed by Christian and Jewish Iraqis.

The movie will screen noon-2pm, Sunday 17 April, Mornington Cinema, 1 Main St, Mornington. It will include a question-and-answer session with the makers. The cost is $17.

THREE Commonfolk Studio artists drew inspi-ration from the Mornington Peninsula’s natural beauty for their fi rst group exhibition, Safe Keeping.

The exhibition combines the work of glass art-ist Sarah Dingwall, silversmith Kate Macindoe and artist Emma Morgan to explore the concept of preservation as well as their desire to protect an object or moment.

“Though we each make our artworks through different mediums, we noticed we all had similar themes to do with nature and preservation,”

Morgan said.Inspired by the natural world, the artists’ work

refl ects their connection with places, memo-ries, ideas and objects through their respective mediums.

“We’re really inspired by the beauty of the Mornington Peninsula as we have all grown up here,” Macindoe said.

Their exhibition opened on Friday night at The Nook, 18 Progress St, Mornington, and is open 10am-5pm until Thursday.

IT is too early to know whether homes along the Frankston line will be bought by the state govern-ment if elevated rail ultimately is built along sec-tions of the rail line.

The Labor state government offered to buy about 130 homes backing onto elevated rail, dubbed sky rail, along three sections of the Cranbourne-Pa-kenham line where rail over road structures will be built.

The Level Crossing Removal Authority, a Depart-ment of Transport division tasked with overseeing the separation of rail and road at 11 level crossings along the Frankston line, says early site investiga-tions are underway at eight locations between Chel-tenham and Frankston and it is too soon to say that Frankston line residents will be offered the same buyout at taxpayers’ expense.

LXRA project director Adam Maguire said tech-nical investigations, including environment assess-ments, will be done in the fi rst half of the year before the authority announces options for level crossings removals along the Frankston line in mid-year.

“These technical investigations are part of the de-velopment of feasible options for each of the eight sites, and will be presented to the community for their feedback later this year,” Mr Maguire said.

“Following this, further work will be undertaken to inform the development of the recommended option by the end of 2016, when the investigations currently underway will also assist in determining the relevant planning and approvals required under

various local, state and federal legislation.”The environmental assessments will include an

Environment Effects Statement for each option for removing level crossings as part of a public process, according to the LXRA.

Liberal opposition spokesman for planning David Davis said the government’s offer to buy homes from residents who will live near elevated rail on the Cranbourne-Pakenham line is a “panicked po-litical fi x”.

“If Sky Rail is going to create the utopian neigh-bourhoods that Premier Daniel Andrews and Trans-port Minister Jacinta Allan said it would then why do they need to buy out local residents?” he asked. “The fact is, the Andrews Labor government has been lying all along about the impact of sky rail and has admitted it with this panicked and rushed an-nouncement without any details.

“Surely this compensation would be better spent instead in doing what residents actually want; for this ugly and intrusive sky rail proposal to be aban-doned and instead remove level crossings by putting rail under road.”

Mr Maguire said any buyout scheme along the Frankston line is not even under consideration at the moment. A fi nal decision on how best to re-move level crossings at eight locations along the Frankston line will be announced at the end of this year.

“The government’s voluntary purchase scheme relates to the Caulfi eld to Dandenong level cross-ings, and arrangements for other projects will be determined on a project-by-project basis.”

Three road under rail level crossing removals are underway at Bentleigh, McKinnon and Ormond.

Give me land, lots of land

AT the hinterland heart of the peninsula, this excellent 21-hectare rural holding has dual access from Coolart and Frankston-Flinders Roads and offers a great lifestyle to pursue a variety of agricultural endeavours. About 12 hectares (30 acres) are sown to fi rst grade hay however the slope and aspect of the property would make it suitable for a vineyard or market garden. The property is currently an alpaca farm and would easily support similar livestock also. Eight paddocks are serviced by two dams and there is a 22,500-litre gravity fed water tank. The property has an

impressive number of quality outbuildings including a large heavy machinery shed with high-span clearance, a secure workshop with sliding door, a shearing shed, which could possibly be converted to stables, and a double garage under the roof line of the main home. The well-maintained brick home receives a welcoming amount of natural light, with an expansive view of the land and gardens from most rooms. There is a bright kitchen with plenty of cupboard space and appliances include a wall oven and electric hotplates. A tiled meals area fl ows through into a handsome

lounge room with striking Canadian redwood walls and a fantastic built-in bar, and from here you step out to the undercover patio which receives plenty of shade for cool afternoon drinks after a days work. A second lounge room can be closed off from the main area which makes this space suitable for a home offi ce or a library. The home has four excellent bedrooms; the larger main bedroom has an ensuite and walk-in robe with other bedrooms sharing two more bathrooms.

this week in Rotary

The Rotary Club of Rosebud Rye has a strong commitment to the growth and devel-opment of our young generation. We are proud of the programs which we offer.

School Scholarships Awards

Each year our members commit $4200 to awards for selected students from 5 local state primary schools-(Rye, Tootgarook, Rosebud, Boneo and Eastbourne) and Rosebud Secondary College. There are a range of awards which recognise- general achievement, outstanding effort, outstanding leadership, contribution, service and music ability. Teachers, who know their students so well, select the students. The scholarship is awarded at the end of year school celebra-tion and awards ceremony. The scholarship goes towards their following year’s educa-tion costs.

If you know anyone with anxiety, you may know how debilitating it is. Left untreated, it can lead to low self esteem, poor self image, helplessness and depression. For the past four years the Rotary club of Rosebud-Rye have sponsored an early intervention project and given every grade 3 student in our local schools a copy of ‘A for Attitude’ written by a local author, Julie Davey. ‘A for Attitude’ is a book full of inspiration and encourage-ment through the development of positive and empowering strategies to apply when dealing with difficult personal situations.

This has been a wonderful initiative for our young people and has been welcomed by parents, teachers and students alike. This book is a useful resource which supports any wellbeing program run in schools, as-sists with behavior management and links with the curriculum. Teachers can use it in class and as students can take it home to share with family members.

Projects coming up!

These two programs sponsored and run by Rotary offer outstanding opportunities for students in secondary years.

Rotary Program of Enrichment (RYPEN)

RYPEN is a program for young people aged 14-17 years. The program fosters personal development and leadership skills while working in small teams. The ideal candidate is a teenager who will benefit from confi-dence building, encouragement and a chance to learn about his/her own innate capabili-ties. Participate attend a weekend camp that is held once each year.

National Youth Science Forum (NYSF)

The National Youth Science Forum (NYSF) is dedicated to exposing year eleven students who are heading into year twelve and are thinking about a career in science, engineering and related disciplines to major scientific institutions and researchers, NYSF

assists participants to make more informed choices for their future endeavours. They are also given training in time management, interview skills and public speaking. For further information email Claire Burns, Director of New Generations: [email protected]

THE court appearance last Tuesday of a Pearcedale man with 54 counts of burglary, theft and brings Pearcedale property owners Maree and David Brann closer to ending a frustrating chapter in their lives.

Their Middle Rd house was robbed three times just before Easter with Mornington Peninsula detectives lat-er recovering “a signifi cant amount of property”.

Detective Senior Constable John Melhuish, of Somerville police com-plex, said the man, 34, was appre-hended on Good Friday and charged with 16 burglaries on peninsula prop-erties from 29 January-24 March.

He was remanded in custody last week and will appear at Frankston Magistrates’ Court again on 14 April.

Stolen from the couple’s property were 150 items, including tools, welding and gardening equipment and chainsaws from a garage which was systematically ransacked, as well as personal items and a family heir-loom jewellery box much loved by Mrs Brann who is “over the moon” at its return.

“The fi rst robbery was on 18 March and the thieves returned on 23 and 24 March to get more,” Mrs Brann said.

“We had just got back from Thai-land and found the padlock to our six acre, mostly bush, property cut and then realised we had been robbed,” she said. “They did a lot of damage.”

The couple had taken precautions

against robbery. But sliding door locks, deadlocks and heavy duty pad-locks proved no defence against the intruders who peeled back sheets of roofi ng to gain entry to the handy-man’s garage.

Locks on the house were changed after the fi rst robbery, but that proved no deterrent. “We thought the big shed was safe and that no one could get in, so we left on the Sunday and

then a neighbour called to say she saw the gate was open.”

On return, they found three locked farm gates forced open and screws to panels on the shed removed.

“We just kept getting hit,” Mrs Brann said. “Our neighbour said she saw a man stealing a tub and that was only 50 minutes after we had left.

“We are paranoid now about leav-ing the property, even to the extent of

texting neighbours about when we are going and when we plan to return.

“It’s done my head in.”After the alleged offender’s arrest

on Good Friday, detectives on East-er Sunday were able to return Mrs Brann’s silver jewellery box and sev-eral power tools and chain saws. More “big ticket items” were found dumped in a laneway in Langwarrin South.

Detective Melhuish estimates only

a third of the couple’s stolen goods have so far been recovered.

Security at the property is being increased with new alarms installed Thursday.

“I can’t tell you how wonderful the police have been,” Mrs Brann said.

Detective Melhuish urges property owners to engrave their names on tools and other valuables to make re-turns easier.

YOGA AND WELLNESS PROGRAM FOR PEOPLE WITH PARKINSON’SNext term commencing: 17th April – 26th June 2016

YOGA involves a set of postures and controlled breathing to help attain good physical and mental health. Many studies have proven that these exercises help achieve good health.

Studies have also shown that regular practice of yoga for people suffering from Parkinson’s can help control the disease and improve the condition.

Stiffness in the body’s core is one of the most debilitating symptoms of Parkinson’s disease because it hampers the ability to walk across a room or simply stand upright. Restorative poses and gentle twists that strengthen the trunk are believed to reduce stiffness and improve mobility.

• Visible reduction in tremors• Improvement in the steadiness of gait

(immediately following yoga session)• Improved control of body movements• Improved mobility and range of movement• Improved balance• Reduced depression, anxiety and fatigue• Reduced stiffness• Improved sleep• Increased mindfulnessThere are 3 components to any good yoga

• Controlled breathing (Pranayam)• Postures (Asanas)• Meditation (Dhyan)Yoga for people with Parkinson’s disease

can be done in a chair or on a mat. Pillows and bolsters can be used for support. Loose comfortable clothing should be worn.

An effective yoga and lifestyle program can make a huge improvement in the quality of life for people with Parkinson’s disease!

Our program:Our yoga classes are run by Dr Sanjay

a neurologist with special interest in movement disorders which includes Parkinson’s disease.

Dr Raghav has successfully conducted yoga classes for Parkinson’s patients in collaboration with Parkinson’s Victoria.

believes Yoga is an important tool in keeping yourself healthy in mind, body and spirit.

• Relaxation and meditation• Yoga• Wellness information which will assist with

coping with PD

• Comfortable loose clothing.• Drink bottle with water.• You will be provided with a Yoga mat at

each week, or you can purchase one for $30.00.

Cost and how to book:Our yoga classes will operate during school

terms. Sessions are booked as a group booking, not single sessions. Most terms will operate for a 10 week period. A ten week program will cost $150. Many leading health insurance companies in Australia offer a health rebate if you attend a

program (yoga) that improves your health and wellbeing. Please check with your insurance provider beforehand.

Places are limited to 15 per session - bookings are essential. Consent forms and dates for our terms are available on our website – www.sjog.org.au/frankston Classes are held at our hospital Sundays 5pm - 6pm in our Pomegranate gym.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Frankston youth go to universityFrankston youth go to universityCompiled by Melissa WalshWE are pleased to note that two members of families residing in Frankston, have, by passing the Senior Public examinations and ma-triculating, become undergraduates of the Melbourne University.

They are Miss Elsie Young, daugh-ter of the proprietor of this paper, and Sydney Plowman, son of Dr Plowman.

***MESSRS Brody and Mason will hold their monthly sale at Somerville. on Wednesday next, when they will have a good yarding of stock, including a number of pigs.

***MESSRS Alex Scott and Co will hold a clearing sale at Shoreham, under instructions from Mr Geo. Baynton, on Wednesday next, commencing at half past one o’clock,consisting of dairy plant, horses, cows, household furniture and effects.

***MESSRS T. R. B. Morton and Son, in conjunction with Messrs Alex Scott and Co, will hold an extensive sale, at their rooms, 72 Swanston street, on Friday, 28th April, of rich farm and orchard areas, seaside blocks, etc. situated at Red Hill, Shoreham and Flinders, on Western-port Bay, on the beautiful Morning-ton Peninsula, in the estate of the late John Bayne, Esq , under instruction from the Trustee Executors and Agency Co.

For full particulars see our adver-tising columns.

***A MOVEMENT has been started in Victoria to form a farmers’ union, which is intended to embrace all rural producers. The proposal is to estab-lish branches in each district. There will be divisional councils in each of the Federal electoral divisions, and the bodies and branches will be represented on a State council.

The objects of the movement are to protect the interests of farmers and rural producers on the land, in the city, at wharfs and in markets; to secure “fuller aid more aggressive representation in each of the houses of Parliament,” and to secure unity of action by producers-industrial, com-mercial and political.

The offi ce of the secretary is at 49 Elizabeth Street.

***HOW the Tide of the War is Run-ning.

Dr Fitchett, in the April number of “Life,” is very confi dent that the tide of the war has turned and is begin-ning to run strongly in favor of the Allies.

He does not appear to think that the War is ended, or even that the end is in sight, but his opinion is that the effect on the whole war of the Rus-sian victories in Asia Minor, and the German repulses at Verdun, will be immediately left.

One section of Dr Fitchett’s History of the Month, in “Life” deals with

the Verdun attack; another is devoted to “The Bewildering Geography of the War,” a third to “Some of the surprises and puzzles of the Great War;” and still another to a review of Sir Ian Hamilton’s famous despatch describing what he calls “The Great Adventure of Gallipoli.”

The general articles in “Life” are particularly timely and well illus-trated, while the regular departments are well maintained.

“Life” is sold locally for seven-pence but if unobtainable, a postal note for 3s 6d sent to T. Shaw Fitch-ett, 376 Swanston St, Melbourne, will bring it by post for six months.

***PRIOR to Private F. Burton going to the front, members of the Frankston Football Club felt it incumbent on them not to let him depart without some small recognition of his valu-able services as a player, and at very short notice, as it was only known a day or two ago that he was on his fi nal leave, and booked to sail on Tuesday last, a number of his friends assembled at the Mechanics’ Institute on Saturday evening to bid him good bye. Dr Plowman was voted to the chair.

Apologies were received from Captain Sherlock and Mr Gray. Mr W. Richardson, having explained the object of the meeting, said that Private Burton had been connected with football since boyhood and had always proved himself a reliable player and a good sport. He had no

doubt he would display the same spirit now he was going to play the sterner game of war.

Cr Oates was pleased, yet sorry, for the object they had met. Fred had always been a reliable man and had always played the game fairly. He felt convinced that when he got to the front he would give a good account of himself.

On his return he would receive a hearty welcome. Mr R. Croskell expressed the opinion that Private Burton would prove a bitter pill to the enemy. He would be all there. He wished him God Speed.

Messrs E. K. M’Comb, M. Brody, W. Hartland, E. M. M’Comb and A. Walker also spoke in eulogistic terms of Private Burton, and wished him a safe return.

The chairman had known Private Burton since boyhood, and spoke of him as always taking a keen interest in football. He was pleased to assist at the send-off. He held the man who volunteers to be worthy of all esteem, and wished him a safe return, covered with glory.

Mr Richardson, on behalf of the members of the Football Club, then presented Private Burton with a wristlet watch, accompanied by their best wishes for his safe return. Pri-vate Burton feelingly responded.

The presentation was totally unexpected and while thanking them heartily for it, hoped that he would be able to maintain the high opinion expressed of him by them.

***THE funeral of the late Mr A. C. Westway, of Somerville, took place on Saturday afternoon, the remains being followed to the place of inter-ment (Frankston Cemetery), by a large number of relatives and friends.

The members of the local branch-es of the M.U.I.O.O.F. and I.O.R. preceded the hearse, and impressive services were held at the grave by Rev R. Jackson, of the Methodist Church (of which body deceased was a member) and the two societies.

Mr N. McDonald reading the I.O.R. service and Mr A. Rivett, the service of the M.U.I.O.O.F. The funeral arrangements were conducted by Mr H. Gamble, of Frankston.

***A FAREWELL afternoon tea to Miss Watson will be held at the Red Cross Room, Mechanics’ Hall on Wednesday afternoon April 12th. All subscribers to the fund and friends of Miss Watson will be welcomed.

***AUSTRALIAN Expeditionary Forces. Recruits wanted. Every man physically fi t is wanted. Conditions of enlistment. Age— 18 to 45 years. Minimum height—5 feet 2 inches. Chest measurement — 33 inches.

By Stuart McCullough‘BIG ups’. Until the moment these words were uttered, I’d been having a perfectly pleasant time. We were driving to Bittern, listening to a self-declared ‘youth orientated’ radio sta-tion. I’d been heartened by the fact that songs which, ostensibly, were written, performed and directed to-wards young people did not sound like something that made me want to hand my ears back on the grounds that they were clearly defective. Rather, these were songs that sounded like songs and not a computer malfunction. Af-ter the music stopped, a voice that sounded as if she may not yet be old enough to drive uttered the words that would cause my sense of wellbeing to instantly unravel.

When the music stopped, I had no idea what to expect. It’s fair to say that I did not see it coming. Without hesita-tion, the announcer stated that before the next song, she wanted to offer ‘big ups’ to a listener who happened to driving back to Byron Bay. It was all I could do to not pull the car to the side of the road, get out of the car and shake my fi sts at the sky.

It was a statement of such over-whelming randomness, I could barely function and my mind was awash with questions. Did the listener call in and specifi cally request on-air ‘big ups’ or were they bestowed on him regard-less? Will ‘big ups’ result in acceler-ated advancement through high school or University? Having received ‘big ups’, what do you do with them? Put

them in a vase? Frame them? Once I might have known the answers to these questions. For there was a time not so long ago that I understood youth culture because I was part of it rather than, as I am now, a spectator from an ever-increasing distance.

Luckily, I had resisted the urge to pull over and we continued on along Coolart Road before taking the turnoff for Bittern. The last time I’d been there I’d been as young as the radio announcer. As we approached the town, there was a blue sign pointing to the right, indicating that this was the direction you took if you looking for the Bittern Recreation Centre. I re-member it well.

Our band played there just the once. It was a school dance and it was the

era before the DJ ruled supreme. There was a small stage and a PA we’d rent-ed that might have been the right size if, in fact, we’d been playing Festival Hall and not Bittern. We’d used the afternoon to sound-check and waited anxiously for our schoolmates to be-gin arriving for what would, without doubt, be the greatest night of their lives.

Usually, school dances are incred-ibly uncool. If there’s a band, they’re usually only there to crank out ap-proximate versions of songs from the radio. The mere act of recognition can often be enough to send the audience into a frenzy. We, however, were not that kind of band. Rather, we decided that the best way to entertain an au-dience of teenagers, teachers and the

occasional parent was to unleash our catalog of original compositions on an unsuspecting crowd. Right away, it was clear that our music was having a profound effect.

So overwhelmed were our school-mates, they immediately vacated the dance fl oor. Presumably, this was in order to fully appreciate every nuance of the set list. Given how long we’d worked on those tunes, I couldn’t blame them for feeling a little awe-struck. Besides, it’s hard to really take in the lyrics if you’re dancing. You’re much better off crossing your arms and closing your eyes and letting the poetry of it all wash over you. When it was over, I can’t recall anyone say-ing that they thought they liked it. I certainly can’t recall anyone offering

‘big ups’.For reasons I can’t quite put my

fi nger on, I wanted to turn right and visit the Bittern Recreation Hall. I sus-pected it might be a lot smaller than I remembered, as that’s the way it is with most things these days, including the jeans that seemed to fi t perfectly just two years ago. It in a more ideal world, there would be a plaque, if not a statue, commemorating if not the time 20/20 Vision played the school dance at the Bittern Recreation Hall, then at least celebrating the moment we fi nished and turned our amps off.

I didn’t turn. Rather, I kept on driv-ing through Bittern. It might well have been the scene of one of my greatest musical triumphs, but there’s nothing left to indicate it. In a post ‘big ups’ universe, where praise can be heaped upon you for no more than sending a text message to a radio station, it’s too much to expect that our concert should be remembered other than for the tinnitus that some of the audience members no doubt still experience to this day. Later in the afternoon, we drove back through Bittern one more time and I turned the radio way up. Perhaps it’s enough for me to tell that story one more time to my wife, even if she’s heard it all before. For the past is a powerful thing. We reconstruct it to give ourselves comfort I think. And as we cruised on past the Bittern Recreational Hall, the thought of that night all those years made me happy. If nothing else, that deserves ‘big ups’.

Deborah Conway has never shied away from hard work. With a career spanning three decades, she continues to be a creative force in the industry, singing songs that chronicle the essential elements of life, love, loss, memory, the mundane and the spiritual.

A signifi cant and eloquent contributor to Australian music, Conway’s natural talent and gutsy attitude has ensured a strong following from the moment her band, Do Re Mi released the iconic Man Overboard off their debut album Domestic Harmony in 1985, to present day collaborations with her husband, Willly Zygier.

Grounded, focused and unfazed by the notoriety, Conway, a mother of three, continues to be an inspiration to young women around the globe.

“I have always been a very strong personality which is in part because of my father. I always felt I could be in charge of my own destiny and every part of my growing up indicated my future depended on the decisions I made,” said Conway, who moved out of home at 20. “I was modeling at the time but had always been interested in music. I loved singing and performing and was a natural show-off. I dabbled in different bands, and then joined a Melbourne band called the Benders, which was an interesting grounding. We did heaps of shows in the eight months I was with them. When the drummer left the band to go to Sydney, I was a friend of his and decided to make the move and joined Do Re Mi.”

Conway’s ability to think outside the square meant the band knew they had to do things differently to get people coming to gigs, so they decided to make an EP before performing on stage.

“We decided to do it differently, making the album and sending it to radio stations. Then we started performing live at venues and the audience had already heard the music on the radio.”

While modeling would have continued to be a lucrative career, Conway says she knew it was mainly a means to an end.

“I modeled from 18 to 23 as a way to pay the rent and earn money to play music. The watershed moment for me was getting the feature fi lm, Running On Empty. That, combined with recording the soundtrack for Sweet and Sour, meant I could give up the modeling money.”

Stepping out as a solo artist in 1991, Conway’s departure from Do Re Mi opened up yet another creative element to the iconic singer-songwriter’s repertoire with her debut solo album; String of Pearls’

themes of youthful refl ection and tongue-in-cheek irreverence embodied in It’s Only The Beginning, and Release Me. Another gutsy move, the sojourn into a solo career won her the ARIA Award for Best Female Artist that year, making her a rare female agitator in a time when the music industry was male dominated.

When it comes to longevity, Conway has a simple philosophy, saying it’s all about integrity.

“I’m just me and I don’t have a studied plan to go by but what I think is extremely valuable is your integrity. That stuff is very important to me and that’s the way to be an authentic person is to hold those values,” said Conway. “It affects your song writing and what you represent.”

As for raising a family, the 55-year-old singer says it’s been relatively easy for her to juggle kids and career as she basically makes her own hours.

“All women who decide to have a family have to make those decisions as to how much time they can afford to take off work, still more women than men make those decisions. I

had it easy, I make my own hours, I am self employed and I decide when I want to work being a performing artist,” said Conway, who is mum to Syd, 21 Alma, 18, and Hettie, 16. “The girls are all musical – they get it from both sides of the family. The oldest two are pursuing university degrees in aspects of music and the youngest is doing VCE music in year 11. Whether they become musicians they are all musical and they get it from the genes.”

Being married to Willy for eight years and together for 26, the musical couple have always encouraged the girls to play an instrument.

“From the age of four, they were encouraged to play the piano.

We wrote a song for them... we were going to go to Tamworth and play it there for the very fi rst time. It came about when we were on a long drive to Jarvis Bay and thought we could keep them entertained. They fought all the way along,” she said with a laugh. “But they do actually sing together like angels.”

Working and living together with husband Willy, Conway says there is no demarcation

between cooking and writing.

“Its only the geography that changes. We have been working together for close to 26 years, since I employed him as the guitar player on the tour for the 1991 album String of Pearls. We rarely run out of things to talk about but when we need to fi ll up our creativity we go to a gallery or a bike ride or walk.”

Being Jewish and atheists is just another way this inspirational couple manage to think outside the square, and their love of the poetry around the Talmud inspired their 2013 album, Stories of Ghosts.

“Being Jewish is a large part of our lives. We observe Shabbat dinners on Friday night and fi nd it extraordinarily rich in history and tradition. Jews have been doing the same thing for a long time and there is something very precious about that,” said Conway. “In Stories of Ghosts we were really interested in exploring this kind of thing, and the poetry in the Talmud has been a wonderful resource for many creative artists.”

It was 2004 when the creative couple decided to make their fi rst independent record, another brave move that paid off.

“We really cut ties with record companies and used a distribution company. We could handle the recording process but the challenge was marketing. We weren’t being played on the radio and were trying to fi nd a way to get our music into people’s homes,” said Conway. “So I thought ‘why not just walk in?’ We decided to do it like Tupperware but called them Summerware Parties. We offered a deal that if people bought 30 CDs or more, we would come to their home and do a gig for 20 minutes. It was fantastic, they invited their friends and they got to experience pure music right in front of them with voices and a guitar. It was very successful. You have to be creative as the industry is not like it was... people don’t even buy CDs any more.”

Always looking for a way to break down the walls and inspire musicians, Conway is resilient and determined, organizing Shir Madness in Melbourne last year as festival director.

“Last year we did a festival in Melbourne called Shir Madness and we will do it again in 2017. It was a huge thing so had to put our own record on hold for it,” said Conway, who is currently working on a new album “We sold out on the day. It was like a mini womad in Elsternwick.”

Deborah Conway will be performing as part of PURE GOLD LIVE SALUTES – THE BEST OF THE ’70s, ’80s & ’90s at the Palais Theatre on Friday, 13th May.

PENINSULA LEAGUEBy Toe Punt MANY believe there will be daylight between Frankston YCW and the rest of the competition in MPNFL Penin-sula Division this season.

Such talk would obviously upset op-position players and clubs, however, it really could be justifi ed if you opted to mount an argument.

YCW are a team that had 33 to 11 scoring shots in the 2015 Grand Final against the second best team and won the fl ag by 13-points shy of 100.

This is a club that won 15 of 18 games in 2015, scored an average of 125 points per game and conceded just 48 points.

Regardless of the stats, there will be teams challenging. Mt Eliza will be there again and Pines have recruited extremely well.

Let’s start with the reigning premier. While many clubs did their best

to smash and grab players from the Stonecats during the off-season, they all recommitted.

Lachy Wallace and Anthony Barry have had interrupted pre-seasons in the VFL and are expected to play the fi rst few with the Stonecats.

Benny Tellis hangs up the boots af-ter a superb career but Ricky Morris comes back.

Brad Ulms is probably the only no-table out in a team that had 12 play-ers nominated in the 2015 Team of the Year.

Frankston YCW will be the bench-mark.

Seaford is the club that gets to play YCW in Round one.

The Tigers were comprehensively beaten on Easter Saturday by a Pines team that had no midfi eld rotations in the second half.

The Tigers are a relatively new outfi t that will rely on getting games into the kids and rebuilding.

Mt Eliza is the interesting story un-der Edithvale premiership coach, Troy Shannon.

The Redlegs fi nished on top of the ladder last season with 16 wins from 18 games, however, bowed out of the fi nals in straight sets.

Shannon is a wonderful coach. He brings the best out in his players, gets in the trenches with them and is a wonderful teacher of the game. The

Redlegs need someone to educate the very talented kids coming through – and there are a heap of them.

The Redlegs do have concerns in attack. They have lost their only two key forwards in Scott Lockwood (Sor-rento) and Justin Van Unen (won’t be available for at least the fi rst month and even then he may land at Rich-mond in the VFL).

Defender Jack Egan joins Lock-wood at Sorrento and ruckman Blair Whelan has also left.

Daniel Gormley returns from Dromana and the big win was that Rohan Heasley turned his back on Queensland and decided to stay. David Hand comes with big wraps from the EFL, Matt Jackson and Matt Stanley are stars from the EFL and Matt and

How far Frankston YCW?How far Frankston YCW?Jay Neratzoglou return.

Those who discount the Redlegs are kidding themselves.

What a game to kick off their season against Pines, the other team right in the mix.

Pines is already out of the blocks with a big 69 point win over Seaford on Easter Saturday.

Aaron Edwards was the star of the competition last season and he started 2016 in even better fashion than where he left off. He booted fi ve goals in a blistering opening term before fi n-ishing with seven for the match. He played as much through the middle as he did in attack.

Tim Bongetti booted six goals in the second half while Paul Scanlon was a bull through the middle.

Together with Luke Potts, Scanlon was on ball for the entire second half due to a lack of rotations through in-jury.

We were all told to hold onto our hats with Paul Scanlon and Tim Bongetti and they didn’t disappoint.

Guy Hendry booted three goals also for Pines, highlighting the overall po-tency of the Pythons up front.

Defensively, Pines stood up again. The back six average no more than 15 games between them but due to the improvement, along with the willing-ness of the mids and forwards to work back to support, the Pythons are yet to concede more than 56 points in four matches (including practice matches).

Karingal will get away to a fl ier this season beating old foe Langwarrin.

The Kangas will be the new whip-ping boys of the competition after los-ing the likes of Rikki Johnston, Jarryd Amalfi , Ash Collins, Matt Dimkos, Dale Eames, Mith Gill-Furness, Ethan Rahilly and skipper Scott Sienkie-wicz, while Luke O’Neil has retired.

The Bulls have landed forwards Chris Hay and Leigh Poholke, mid-fi elders Call Dixon and Luke Duhig and defenders Anthony Joel and Dun-can Proud.

The Bulls have an outstanding bunch of kids coming through too, who went

deep in last year’s Unders fi nals.Mornington tackle Bonbeach.The Dogs have lost Paul Dadds and

Mitch Stansborough to Crib, the No-lan brothers have gone, as has Adam Symes and Ben Wells is in the VFL.

Bonbeach led at half time by nine points on Good Friday against Ed-ithvale before the Eagles booted fi ve goals to one in the third to set up their win.

Elliott Macquire from Old Men-tonians had an immediate impact on Peninsula Division with a best on ground display for the Sharks while Wonthaggi recruit Chris Wylie booted two goals and was a big unit in attack. Shane McDonald booted a couple in his return game for the Sharks while recruits Jack Williams and James Murnane were standouts.

On Sunday, Edithvale and Chelsea will play their traditional clash.

The Eagles started their season in wonderful fashion against Bonbeach, winning by nine points.

The talk around the Eagles has been doom and gloom in the off season with the likes of Brett O’Hanlon, Brad Tagg, Tim Mavris, Jordy Derbyshire and Jarrod Garth all leaving the club.

However, they still have the likes of Tim and Steve Mannix, Mark Mul-lins, Mick Meehan, Tommy Turner, Jeremy Heys, Zac Muschialli, Todd Woodbridge and Matt Kremmer run-ning around, with a sprinkling of new talent.

Chelsea have a new coach in Brett Dunne, their fourth coach in as many seasons.

The Gulls have certainly added some talent to the list, however, have lost a few in ruckman Rory Gregg, Robbie Lancaster, Alex Smout, Ryan Stewart, Hudson Thomas and Jayden Attard.

The upshot is that there are only three teams who can win the fl ag – YCW, Pines and Mt Eliza. The rest will fi ght it out for fourth and fi fth with Langwarrin fi nishing on the bot-tom.

SOUTHERN PENINSULA scoreboard

NEPEAN LEAGUEBy Toe Punt THE 2016 MPNFL Nepean Division season gets into full swing this Satur-day and already there are a couple of teams under pressure.

One of them is Rye. The Demons were nothing short of ordinary in their Good Friday clash with Rosebud, a match played out in a draw.

This Saturday, Rye tackles the side many believe will go one better in sea-son 2016, Somerville.

The Eagles were potent against Ty-abb on Easter Saturday with Tommy Shaw booting nine and Luke Rowe seven, while a further nine players hit the scoreboard.

Rye’s defensive pressure hasn’t been good for a number of years and one questions whether they can hold the Eagles.

The Rye midfi eld doesn’t work hard enough to push back and defend and its defenders are undersized.

Somerville’s concern is its inabil-ity to stop teams from scoring. It will more often win in a shootout but it can’t afford to give sides such as Ty-abb an opportunity to kick 72 points.

If the Eagles have learned anything from last season in a bid to go one bet-ter, it must be to restrict opposition from scoring and shutting them down.

In a 16 round season, it’s hard to come back from 0-2. This will be something Rye will need to face on Saturday night.

The other side under pressure is last

year’s premier, Rosebud. The Buds too were ordinary against

Rye at Easter and must improve a lot to knock over Dromana this weekend.

When you lose three players from your front six (Tom Baker, Lachy Armstrong and Cade Williams) and three of your best from the middle (Ja-son Bristow, Paul McDonald and Rob Forrest), things are going to be tough.

They tackle a Dromana side that has rediscovered its hunger, passion and spirit – all words that best describe new coach Rikki Johnston.

Beau Cosson is a revelation, Wil-liams comes up against his old side, Adam Hunter got going in the second half last week (although he should be playing off half back) and will im-prove as time moves on and the Tigers are full of spirit after beating Sorrento.

Like Rye, Rosebud will be 0-2 after two matches.

Crib Point and Red Hill will be a fascinating game.

The Magpies have done well in the off season, picking up some quality in the likes of Taylor Stratton as coach, Kain Stratton, Paul Dadds and Mitch Stansborough from Mornington and Matt Hogan from YCW.

At Red Hill, the talk has been more about the losses and less about the ins. The Red Hill Football Club has lost 22 players from its 2015 list, nine of them starting 18 players, who include Paul Wintle, Jake and Josh Mold, Ben Macguiness, Matt Vagg and Jarred Eames.

The Hillmen have picked up some

good players though, especially the Marchetti brothers from Cora-Lynn, as well as Jackson Dalton, who has been kicking bags in practice matches.

Former Frankston YCW premier-ship player Benny Poole is also a sen-sational get while Nick Walsh is hard as a cat’s head in defence.

As noted already, there’s no time to get going in a 16 round competition. Teams need to hit the ground running. The winner of this match may still not play fi nals. The loser defi nitely won’t.

Devon Meadows was the fl yer late last season and it has recruited very well in the off season.

Former Frankston YCW leader and Team of the Year MVP Stevey Roberts is without question the pick of all re-cruits across the competition. Despite coming off knee injuries, he is unques-tionably a star.

Justin Volk from Tyabb is a good get too, as is Andrew Kiely and ruckman Jesse Bowe. Callum O’Hare is a great get (back from a knee) and Curtis Barker will be as he gets himself fi t.

The Panthers need to be mindful of being too top heavy in attack with Kiely, Dylan Hand and Glenn Michie. Kiely is a sensational defender and should be parked at centre half back or full back. Those who have seen Devon in practice matches believe there is not enough defensive pressure.

Pearcedale was disappointing against Frankston Bombers on Good Friday.

There were a couple of stand out performances from Joel White across

half back and Dylan Hoare through the middle. The Dales were missing a few also, most notably Pat Heijden, which leaves Michael Williams as the only key target.

Travis Bravo needs to be left inside the attacking 50m arc to be of most value at his new club.

Devon Meadows are a big show for the fi ve this season and will start their journey positively.

Sorrento simply must bounce back at home against Hastings.

The Sorras were pretty good in spurts against Dromana but it wasn’t enough to get them over the line.

Put simply, the Sorrento team needs to start operating as a team and less as a group of talented individuals.

Previous coach Troy Schwarze would simply put his 22 on the fi eld and allow them to beat their opponent and win the game. It worked more of-ten than not.

New coach Nick Jewell will pro-vide structure, discipline and a team ethos – the sooner all Sorrento play-ers embrace this and charge forward, the sooner it will get its season back on track.

New recruit Nick Corr is an absolute gem. The key is to play Corr high and Scott Lockwood deep – they will be lethal.

Hastings has picked up Mark De-vereaux (returned) and Nathan Gray, who comes with massive wraps from the EFL. Luke Smith from Seaford is also an outstanding get, while coach Brendan Dunne is fi t and fi ring from

all reports.Tyabb booted 11 goals against

Somerville in a consistent perfor-mance over four quarters.

The Yabbies start from a long way back.

Frankston Bombers are widely tipped to be playing fi nals, given their favourable draw and strong recruiting in the off season.

Dale Sutton is without question the pick of the recruits, while Jarryd Amalfi gives them the run, carry and long kick from half back. It frees Beau Muston to play through the middle or pinch-hit in attack.

Ryan Kitchen proved his worth taking strong contested marks and Nathan Lonie is a star who provides composure, experience and a sure kick. Josh Chapman looks set to have a really good season also.
