plaza, jobs to growHOPPERS CROSSING

Hundreds of construction and retail jobs will be created in Wyndham through a $370 million expansion of Werribee Plaza.

� e redevelopment – announced last week by the centre’s owners, the Paci� c Group of Companies – will take two years to complete and will add 35,000 square metres to the Derrimut Road shopping centre.

� e expansion will include a two-storey Myer store, 120 new shops, a Target store, a new fresh food precinct including Woolworths and Aldi, two gold- class cinemas, outdoor eateries and 1500 additional parking spaces. A 10-bus interchange is expected to be completed in a few months.

� e centre’s name will be changed to Paci� c Werribee.

A Paci� c Group spokeswoman said 300 to 500 jobs would be created during construction, with 1500 retail jobs to follow.

Werribee-based employment agency WISE Employment said the expansion would bene� t the city’s long-term unemployed by o� ering entry-level jobs.

Westgate region disability services manager Peter Gallagher said construction, retail and hospitality were major sources of employment across the region.

“Generally, construction roles that come about as the result of such investments can give people who don’t have experience in the

� eld the opportunity for entry-level labourer positions,’’ he said.

‘‘� ese opportunities can provide the necessary training and experience to lay the foundation for the possibility of ongoing employment .

“An investment of this level can give those currently employed in the retail sector

additional experience and possible promotion to management.

‘‘Such promotion then opens the door for more entry-level positions .”

� e centre’s owners originally announced a major expansion in

2009, but planning changes and an economic downturn delayed progress.

General manager Fiona Mackenzie said the new centre had been designed to meet the needs of the growing Wyndham community.

“ � is plan has been developed to meet our customers’ needs and create a � rst-choice destination when it comes to retail and lifestyle experiences in the west.” \

MY TOWN

If you’re on social media or have visited a homewares shop lately, you will have noticed the current predilection for

wisdom.Modernised proverbs proclaiming

ways to achieve happiness and snappy one-liners discussing life’s journey are all over the place.

Accompanied by inspirational photos, it seems we need reminding on a daily basis how, for what and why to live our lives.

� e only one that’s ever rung true with me is the one about kindness. Recalling words to the e� ect of “be kind to everyone you meet because you don’t know what they’re going through”, it’s always been something I’ve tried to do.

However, sometimes you come across people who are just a nasty piece of work (NPW). NPWs aren’t evil at heart – it’s more that they just want to spread a little bit of misery wherever they go.

� e NPWs I’ve encountered have no appreciation for others’ e� orts and, while they bask in admiration when things are going well, they point the � nger when they’re not.

� ey take immediate o� ence to the smallest comment or perceived slight and hold that grudge for as long as they can.

� eir � rst words when they see you will be to point out a minor failing or make a “friendly” suggestion about how you can improve yourself, your life or your family.

But next time you encounter a NPW, remember the modern proverb: Be kind, smile, don’t let them get under your skin and say something nice – even though you might feel like smacking them in the chops.

Because you just don’t know what they’re going through in their lives.

And it will probably really annoy them. \

ambo call-outs pinpoint hot spotsHEALTH

Point Cook, Werribee and parts of Hoppers Crossing are among Melbourne’s most vulnerable suburbs during a heatwave, research reveals.

A Monash University study released last week used ambulance call-outs during heatwaves to pinpoint urban populations most at risk of the e� ects of stress and dehydration.

Professor Nigel Tapper’s research found that residents in Werribee, Point Cook and sections of Hoppers Crossing were extremely vulnerable.

� e number of elderly people living in a suburb, the proportion of land covered by

buildings and the amount of open space were key factors in determining vulnerability .

“In areas that are covered by buildings, urban warming occurs that can increase local temperatures by around four degrees ,’’ he said. “� is can take the temperature over the threshold where human health is threatened.”

Professor Tapper urged town planners to include more street trees, shady parks and better building designs in future housing developments.

Wyndham mayor Bob Fairclough said the council would use the research to manage risks across the municipality.

He said the council wanted the state

government to approve new landscape guidelines that would result in more open spaces and trees being included in precinct structure plans for new communities.

“Wyndham City also undertakes work directly to increase open space and add to the number of trees in the municipality,’’ he said.

‘‘Heat impacts are considered when planning local parks and

open spaces, and our street tree policy aims to increase the green

canopy and recognises the health bene� ts of more trees, including a reduction of the heat island e� ect and general reduction in temperatures from their shade.” \

Wyndham Lodge resident Vincent Hindson (pictured) credits cool drinks, extra fans and the occasional ice-cream with keeping him cool during recent heatwaves.

With research warning that elderly people are particularly vulnerable during hot spells, the nursing home’s sta� have been doing all they can to keep residents healthy.

Baptcare spokeswoman Fiona Collie said Wyndham Lodge was air-conditioned, but sta� regularly checked up on residents to ensure they were coping.

She said residents were reminded to increase their � uid intake to prevent dehydration and were o� ered ice-creams and icy poles.

“For those living on their own, without close family, Baptcare will call them to advise a heatwave is predicted and o� er tips to cope with the heatwave and what to monitor in their own health.” \ LL (M

a royal sense of rhythm

WERRIBEE SOUTH

Point Cook performer King Bell shares a joy through his music despite personal pain.

Born in the Congo to parents from Angola, he’s an exile from his African homeland and only returned there last month a� er 33 years.

“� e poverty was unbelievable, but they dance, they sing, they enjoy – these people know how to live,” he says.

� e singer, percussionist and dancer – who is performing in Werribee zoo’s Rhythm of Africa series – imbues his performances with band Soukous Ba Congo with this love of life .

Bell moved from the Congo to Angola only to face forced conscription into the national army, despite being a member of the National Ballet of Angola .

He � ed to Brazil from Angola in the late 1980s and was o� ered asylum elsewhere .

“� e UN [United Nations] told me I would go to Australia, but I thought they meant Austria. I’m so glad I was wrong,” Bell says.

Since arriving in Australia he has appeared at WOMADelaide , the Port Fairy and Queenscli� music festivals, and he won the 2003 Boite Australian World Music Act with his band.

Rhythm of Africa is on the next two Saturdays, from 4.30-9pm. \

tip lowers wyndham property values: landownersWERRIBEE

Landowners in Wyndham’s west fear the Wests Road land� ll will bring down property values.

� e landowners, many of whom have land that was assigned to be within the urban growth boundary in recent years, fear that no one will want to live in the municipality’s west if the tip continues to expand.

As reported by the Weekly, the council is seeking Environment Protection Authority approval to expand cell 4C at the tip to 24 metres above ground.

� e EPA has granted approval for cells 4A and 4B to be built to the same height.

Landowners Lindsay and Karen Ingram believe the expanding tip is beginning to a� ect all of Wyndham.

“It is a severe nuisance because of odour, stigma, truck tra� c, noise pollution and the blowing of trash in the wind,” Mr Ingram said. “People won’t want to move to the area.”

Western Region Environment Centre director Harry van Moorst said a 2005 US study found that land� lls which accepted at

least 500 tonnes of rubbish per day decreased property values by an average of 13.7 per cent.

“� e Wests Road land� ll accepts more than 1 200 tonnes of waste per day,

is very visible at 24 metres above ground level and has had growing numbers of odour complaints since rising above ground, according to its opponents. It is also near several

proposed new housing estates,” he said.

But council chief executive Kerry � ompson said it was “extremely di� cult” to analyse the e� ect the tip had on property

values, because it had been at the current site for more than 30 years.

RMIT property valuation expert Matt Myers said the e� ect of land� lls on property values was in� uenced by distance, odour, the type of tip, its proximity to urban areas and its visual impact. However, he said it would be di� cult to measure the di� erence that the construction of a third cell at 24 metres above ground would make to property values . \

■ Let’s not forget that Melbourne is growing in population and the Werribee South intensive agriculture precinct comprises 3000 hectares of land worth an estimated $200 million.

It generates a large percentage of the total annual Victorian production of vegetables .

The precinct is 40 kilometres from the centre of Melbourne, where the population is 4.35 million people and expected to grow to 8 million by 2050.

It would seem that the council has made the right decision in protecting our food bowl for future generations to enable our children to enjoy the quality of vegetables that we have taken for granted.

Let’s improve the plight of farmers and focus on opportunities that will help them improve pro� ts to keep feeding this wonderful city for many more generations to come VISION \ VIA WEB

JOB WELL DONE

■ I congratulate Wyndham City Council for a well organised and enjoyable Australia Day celebration.

The entertainment had a mix of local talent and a rock band with a fantastic sound and banter .

With free rides, face-painting for the kids and a big screen with the tennis, there was something for everyone. The video of Wyndham’s 150-year history was a great way for people to learn about how this city started, and the � reworks had everyone enthralled.

All the staff and the volunteers involved deserve recognition for a job well done. ANDREW ELSBURY \ WESTERN METROPOLITAN MP

SENIORS’ CONTRIBUTIONS

■ Senior citizens are critici sed for every conceivable de� ciency of the modern world, real or imaginary.

However , it was NOT the senior citizens who took: The pride out of appearance,

The courtesy out of driving,The romance out of love,The commitment out of marriage,The responsibility out of parenthood, The learning out of education,The service out of patriotism, The civility out of behaviour,The re� nement out of language,The dedication out of employment,The prudence out of spending or God out of government and school.

So, before you critici se senior citizens, take a long hard look at yourself and ask what you have contributed to this great country.BILL HUTTON \ WERRIBEE SOUTH

My shoutCongratulations to ABC managing director Mark Scott for refusing to apologise to the Royal Australian Navy for reporting claims about the mistreatment of asylum seekers.

The media’s role is to hold such institutions to account. The ABC didn’t accuse the navy of mistreatment, it just reported claims by asylum seekers and gave the navy right of reply. To suggest this was a betrayal of “Team Australia” is ludicrous.

A robust society needs a balanced media free to question those in authority without fear.

We’re often accused of bias or shoddy reporting when we publish negative stories about of� cials or organisations. If that’s the only response we get, that means we’re probably doing it right.

Sometimes we do get it wrong. And sometimes we give air to trivial issues. But that’s more forgiveable than failing to hold those in power to account. \

slow council response to dog attack ‘pathetic’WERRIBEE

Wyndham council o� cers have come under � re a� er a dog attacked a loved family pet, ripping its chest open and leaving its owners with a huge vet bill.

Emma Leunig said her boxer Harry was mauled in Riversdale Drive, Werribee, on January 30 and despite reporting immediately, it took a week for council rangers to visit.

She said council sta� apologised for the delay and said it was because they were “understa� ed”.

“� is is a dangerous dog and even if the owners have moved it from their property, it is somewhere out there in the community posing a threat to children, pets and people,” Ms Leunig said.

“Harry is a rescue dog, but to my husband and I, he’s our son.”

Ms Leunig said she was walking Harry on lead about 9.30pm when the other dog “charged” through the open door of a house in Riversdale Drive and attacked without warning.

“It hit Harry with such ferocity that I didn’t have a chance to protect him,” she said.

“It grabbed his shoulder then Harry’s chest and latched on, trying to shake him.”

People from the house jumped on the attacking dog, kicking it

savagely, but it hung on, she said.When it � nally let go, a man

she presumed was the owner yelled at her to run, so she said she picked up Harry and ran

while calling her husband for help.Harry underwent emergency

surgery at Melbourne University’s Werribee veterinary hospital and was kept overnight because vets suspected he’d su� ered a heart attack.

“It was a horri� c attack, but where is the council follow-up?” Ms Leunig said. “It’s pathetic.”

Wyndham council did not respond before the Weekly went to print. \

assault pair avoid jailCOURT

Two friends who were involved in a confrontation with a Werribee man on a Fitzroy street when he was fatally stabbed by a passerby last year have avoided jail for their role in his “senseless” death.

� e Supreme Court heard last Wednesday that Shaun Wright , 21, became involved in a confrontation with Sydenham man Deyar Musa , 21, and Burnside woman Shewit Wubneh , also 21, a� er he threw a piece of wood at their car about 3.30am on March 17.

Justice John Dixon said there was no evidence of any damage to the car, but Musa wanted Mr Wright’s details for a possible insurance claim.

Mr Wright ran away when he was confronted by Wubneh and others.

He was later spotted near the Tankerville Arms Hotel in Johnstone Street, where Musa stopped the car and set o� a� er him.

Musa and Wubneh again confronted Mr Wright and asked for his identi� cation details.

� e court heard that Mr Wright tried to get away from Musa, who had grabbed and punched him. Wubneh then kicked the lower

part of Mr Wright’s body two or three times before picking up an umbrella and swinging it at him.

A passerby then attacked Mr Wright several times to the neck and body with a broken bottle.

Musa and Wubneh � ed the scene a� er seeing that Mr Wright was bleeding .

Mr Wright collapsed on Johnston Street, where he later died. � e cause of death was a stab injury to the neck.

� e passerby has been charged with Mr Wright’s death and faces a

separate trial.Justice Dixon accepted that Musa

and Wubneh, who pleaded guilty to a� ray and assault, did not intend, or cause, Mr Wright’s death. But he said the “pointless and tragic loss of life” that followed their conduct was “so easily avoidable”. “� e confrontation you initiated did rapidly escalate out of your control and it resulted in the senseless death of a young man for failing to give you his particulars in relation to an incident where a hire car was not damaged,” he said.

Musa and Wubneh were both sentenced to a 12-month community corrections order and 100 hours of unpaid community work. \

gillard spills all about pm’s cupTARNEIT

Victoria University student Sam Wharton has been delving into the private AFL passion of former prime minister Julia Gillard.

� e � nal-year sports management student quizzed Ms Gillard about her love of the Western Bulldogs and why she created the Prime Minister’s Cup competition between the Footscray club and Greater Western Sydney in 2012.

Mr Wharton, 24, posed questions to the former PM as part of the university’s summer school program.

“She was working as a lawyer at Slater and Gordon during the Footscray Fightback Campaign,” he said.

� e then-principal of the � rm, Peter Gordon, drove the 1989 campaign to stop the merger of the Bulldogs and Fitzroy.

“I found out she [Gillard] was part of the campaign, fund-raising and helping out the club, and she has been a strong supporter since,” Mr Wharton said.

He said Ms Gillard told him she created the PM’s Cup because both teams were working-class clubs.

Mr Wharton will present the club with his research and hopes it will be displayed in the Bulldogs’ museum. \ SH

the gene. Mrs MacPherson said they knew something was wrong with Brody when he was constantly feeding and unsettled and wouldn’t put on weight.

But they never imagined it could be cystic � brosis.

“It was out of the blue. We have no family history of cystic � brosis. We knew nothing about it before he was diagnosed,” she said.

While Brody won’t be able to take Kalydeco until he is six, Mrs

MacPherson hopes the government will subsidise it so the family can a� ord to buy it when the time comes.

“If we can keep him as healthy as possible for the next six years, there

will be something to help him,” she said. “Kids can lead a normal life on Kalydeco. .”

Cystic Fibrosis Australia chief executive David Jack said Kalydeco was the most important development in the treatment of the disease since the discovery of the cystic � brosis gene in 1989.

He said he was con� dent that once pricing negotiations concluded, Health Minister Peter Dutton would deliver a listing date . \

A Tarneit couple are hoping a new cystic � brosis drug will be added to the Pharmaceutical Bene� ts Scheme sooner rather than later, prolonging the life of their son and the lives of hundreds of children battling the disease.

In December, the pharmaceutical bene� ts advisory committee recommended that Kalydeco be placed on the PBS and subsidised by the federal government. � e drug, which costs a single user about $300,000 a year, has been found to signi� cantly improve the lung function of cystic � brosis patients aged six and older .

� e committee will meet next month to decide when the drug should be listed and how much it will cost.

Brody, the son of Kate and Steve MacPherson, was diagnosed with cystic � brosis in December when he was four weeks old. Doctors discovered he had the rare gene G551D , which does not allow salt and � uid to � ow through his body.

� e result is a build-up of sticky mucus in his lungs and digestive system.

BRIEFSbracks touts west precinct potentialWERRIBEE

� e state government should recognise Werribee as a key growth and development precinct , according to former Victorian premier Steve Bracks.

Mr Bracks, who will address a sold-out Committee for Wyndham breakfast on February 19, said the area had substantial attractions for business, industry, education and health service .

He said Melbourne’s west – “particularly the corridor around Werribee” – had signi� cant advantages over other metropolitan regions in Melbourne.

“It has superior logistical advantages, which we undersell but could pro� t from much more,” he said.

“We have access to three major highways, standard-gauge rail and a curfew-free airport.

“Most capital cities would lust a� er such a logistical superiority, and that gives us an advantage in the choice of location of industry, where development will occur and how we can capitalise on that .”

Mr Bracks said the government should recognise Werribee as a key development precinct, invest in infrastructure and actively encourage industry to the area.

“A key issue is the improvement of

infrastructure in the west where growth has outstripped the necessary infrastructure.

‘‘ It’s important that we address the freeway system, the road system o� the freeway, the separation between road and rail, and improved rail access into the city.

“� is is one of the precincts that should be developed.

“Victoria has the Parkville precinct with biotechnology and the Monash precinct with IT, and we’ve got Werribee with life

sciences such as horticulture and animal health. It requires signi� cant intervention from government, which should say, ‘� is is a precinct we want to develop’.”

Mr Bracks, who is patron of Western Melbourne Tourism, said Werribee’s numerous attractions could also be a boon for future employment growth.

“Don’t underestimate the pull of tourism,” he said. \

toyota warning for pmJOBS

A Toyota worker made redundant three years ago says Prime Minister Tony Abbott should “think very carefully” about new jobs for workers hit by the closure of Toyota’s Altona manufacturing plant in 2017.

Former union shop steward Fadi Hassan told � e Weekly he was still out of work three years a� er being made redundant.

“Mr Abbott, he’d better think very carefully how he’s going to � nd jobs for all these people,” he said.

“I am 50 years old and nobody wants to take me, you know.

“I have no disability, I have no sickness, I don’t even have blood pressure, and I can’t � nd a job.”

Mr Hassan’s comments were echoed by community leaders, who expressed their disappointment at the federal government’s inability to save the plant, which is one of the west’s biggest employers.

Hobsons Bay councillor Luba Grigorovitch, who heads a Victorian union, posted on Facebook that “by his own admission, Tony Abbott couldn’t answer the phone when Toyota rang as he was too busy announcing the anti-union witch-hunt .”

“First of all, when I think of what kind of anxieties that our employees may have hearing this decision about their future, it is extremely heartbreaking,” he said.

“Because of that I did want to come here directly for myself and to speak with my own

Hobsons Bay mayor Sandra Wilson said the council was committed to the long-term economic success of the city.

“� ere are many opportunities for new investment, diversi� cation and the creation of new jobs,” she said.

Toyota Australia president and chief executive Max Yasuda said on

Monday that 2500 workers directly involved in manufacturing would be impacted when the plant stopped building cars in Australia at the end of 2017. � e plant has been building cars in

Australia since 1963. Australian Manufacturing Workers Union

organiser Darren Dwyer said 200,000 jobs could be a� ected.

He said the closure became inevitable a� er previous departure announcements by Ford and Holden.

“� at supplier base can’t really support one company,” he said. “And that was really probably the end of it.

“� is was the last one. � e industry’s gone now.”

� e Weekly asked Toyota global president and chief executive Akio Toyoda his thoughts on union claims that 200,000 people could be a� ected by Toyota’s decision.

words directly to our people.“� erefore, when we knew when this

decision was going to be made, even though it was a short lead time, I had made arrangements to prioritise being here.” \

Hoppers Crossing’s Les Porter spends much of his time volunteering for Wyndham City Salvation Army. “I aim to do God’s work by assisting

people in the community,” Porter says. We asked him:

What’s your connection to the community?I’ve been volunteering with Wyndham City Salvation Army for 15 years. I help with children’s services such as playgroup and Mainly Music, a program for preschoolers. I founded the ‘Wyndham 1000’ four years ago. It involves a 1000-kilometre ride around Wyndham on my adult tricycle. So far, we have raised more than $50,000, which the Salvos use to provide welfare services to Wyndham residents in need.

How do you spend your downtime?I like to train for the Wyndham 1000 along Werribee River. I love the birds and watching the trees and flowers changing with the seasons. My family and I enjoy spending time in Wonthaggi and have a caravan there. I’m starting a Wonthaggi 500 in March, based on the Wyndham 1000, but I’ll also work with the Salvation Army down there, with schools and community groups.

What’s your favourite place to get coffee and a bite to eat?Coffee Pot in Watton Street. They make good coffee and food. The staff are always friendly.

What would you like to change in your neighbourhood?I’d like to see an improvement in the roads and transport as they’re not appropriate for city traffic and our growing population. \

Four years ago, I started practicing Bikram Yoga after my brother recommended me. After two weeks the benefits started to appear.

No more muscle aches, back pain was gone and the excess weight was disappearing. Now I feel fantastic, have a greater senseof calmness and mental clarity. The instructors are supportive, informative and most of all friendly along with all the other students.

Thank you Bikram Yoga you’ve changed me and my way of life for the better.

I do Bikram Yoga at Werribee, do you?

Pupils at St James the Apostle Primary School will have a safe place to leave their bicycles after the school was given a parking rack for 20 cycles by Bicycle Network in recognition of its commitment to healthy living. The Hoppers Crossing school regularly takes part in the network’s Ride2School days and encourages pupils such as Arden (pictured, front) to make active travel a normal part of the school day. Bicycle Network’s ‘behaviour change’ general manager, Tess Allaway , said the school had “walked the walk”. “We know that childhood is the critical window for creating lifelong active habits and building resilience. St James the Apostle school is getting its students off on the right foot.” \ LL

chance for kids to be part of class act

It will be lights, camera and action for children at Point Cook when new acting classes start at a local primary school.

Actors Lelda Kapsis and Nick Colla are launching classes at St Mary of the Cross Catholic Primary School later this month for pupils in prep to year 12.

“Acting is a fantastic opportunity for kids to develop empathy, build self- esteem, express themselves creatively and be part of a community,” says Kapsis, who has specialised in stage productions and earned a Green Room Award nomination for a musical. “Whether students hope to pursue a career in the � eld or are just looking for a creative and social extracurricular activity, these classes can be extremely enriching and a whole lot of fun.”

� e classes will include theatre sports and voice and movement skills .

Colla, who has appeared in television dramas Neighbours, Blue Heelers, City Homicide and Winners & Losers, has a close association with the school; his father Leon is the principal. \ SH

bowled along by world record questHOPPERS CROSSING

Players from Hoppers Crossing Bowls Club braved the heat last � ursday to help Daylesford man Frank Peniguel’s world record quest.

Mr Peniguel is travelling around the country as part of an attempt to set a Guinness World Record for the most lawn bowls clubs played at by an individual in 12 months.

� e Hoppers Crossing club was stop 39 on a journey that began on January 10. Mr Peniguel hopes to play at 900 clubs this year.

His journey has got o� to a slow start, with some clubs cancelling games because of the heat.

But he’s con� dent he will make up for the lost time as he makes his way around Victoria before heading to Tasmania next month.

Mr Peniguel’s world record attempt began as a desire to travel around the country in his Kombi van, playing bowls along the way for fun.

“I was getting ready for retirement at 70 and then one day I wondered if there was a world record for the most lawn bowls clubs played at, so I contacted the people at Guinness World Records and there wasn’t.

“Sixteen months later, I’m on the road.”

Mr Peniguel hopes to encourage more young people to play lawn bowls.

“Sixteen per cent of all bowlers over 70 don’t

resume playing and they are not replaced,” he said. “Anyone of any age can bowl.” \

If it wasn’t for this property’s angular roof, its street frontage would suggest it was a modest brick veneer on a leafy block. But its contemporary extension

paints a different picture and is sure to impress buyers looking for something stylistically urban and edgy without sacrificing space.

Living rooms include a carpeted lounge room near the entrance, a light-filled dining area beyond the floating staircase and a

big living room at the back which has exposed timber joists, two ceiling fans and storage closets.

The main bedroom is close to the entrance. Its huge fitted dressing room is any fashion lover’s dream and takes advantage of the space that was once a foyer; it also has decorative cornices and links to a spa en suite and tall mirror-fronted built-in wardrobes.

A downstairs powder room off the passage can also be accessed from the en suite.

Ascend the open-tread staircase to four first-floor bedrooms. One large bedroom has vaulted ceilings and attic storage while the three remaining bedrooms all have built-in wardrobes. Two also have built-in shelving.

On this level there’s also a separate toilet, open-plan rumpus room and sparkling bathroom.

Back downstairs, splashes of burgundy add a pop of colour in the kitchen while access to two small elevated decks open up the space.

The main entertainment deck is well shaded by established trees and is bordered by a brick wall which is part of the house’s original exterior.

Step down to a brick-paved pathway which leads to the private backyard, a carport with peaked roof and a garage with roller door.

The property’s south-side position ensures a shady front yard while the backyard is bathed in sunlight. \

HOME BUYERS \ Knowing your limits is key to a successful � rst home purchase. By MARK BUNKER

Look long before you leap

There’s plenty to think about for buyers purchasing their � rst home, and the process can o� en prove arduous and stressful. But there are ways for � rst-time buyers to avoid becoming

overwhelmed and making decisions later regretted. It comes down to doing your research and asking yourself some fundamental questions:

What do you need? Know exactly the type of property you need to purchase, and weigh up the reasons for buying it, considering things such as investment, location, price, � oor plan, room to extend, etc. Knowing your needs allows you to streamline your property search, shortening the time spent. Buyers can also tell agencies what they need and have the latter do some searching around – buyers’ agents/advocates, for example. Be realistic. A growing family can’t live in a small apartment forever. A single person generally doesn’t need a high-maintenance block of land. Figure out the style of property that best suits your lifestyle. Bigger or newer is not always better.

What about the area?Is the property handy to work or lifestyle perks such as a beach, or walking tracks? Is there a railway station nearby? Is the council planning for services upgrades? Are things like crime and pollution driving residents away? Understand the demographics of the area and spend time inspecting changing tra� c conditions at di� erent times of the day on the street you intend to buy on.

Know the supply-to-demand ratio of the area: is it easier to buy in it than sell? Investigate property cycles.

What’s your personal situation? While we can’t see into the future, it’s important to plan

for hurdles along the way, especially � nancial. Have a bu� er account for unexpected costs, such as increases in council and strata fees and interest rates. � ere are always maintenance costs to consider. Knowing your limits is key to a successful � rst home purchase. \

First-home dreams: Research can avert a nightmare. (SUPPLIED)

H omebuyers who want to live close to the city for work but away from the hustle and bustle can do so at Williams

Landing, developed by Cedar Woods.The suburb is 19 kilometres from the CBD,

which is now more accessible with the new $110 million Williams Landing railway station and Palmers Road Freeway interchange.

Williams Landing has a suburban feel, with parks, gardens and reserves dotted around its four residential pockets, while residents also have access to a 24-kilometre bike trail and – in future – their own nine-hectare oval.

Shopping will be easy, with building having started on the new Williams Landing town centre. It will be home to a supermarket, medical centre and 20 specialty stores and is expected to open in 2015. A major home improvement warehouse has already opened.

Nathan Blackburne, state manager of Cedar Woods, says the easy access to Williams Landing from the city makes it an ideal location for families.

“The vision for Williams Landing is coming to life in the town centre and residential

neighbourhoods,” Mr Blackburne says. “There’s strong interest from families wanting to build premium houses in the suburb and from business people wanting to be involved in the town centre.”

Land in Williams Landing ranges from 336 square metres to 519 square metres and is priced from $259,000 to $359,000.

There are 45 homes from 15 builders available to explore in the Cedar Woods display village.

For more information on building a house in Williams Landing, contact the sales team. \

ProfiLE \ jake wilkinson is up to new tricks, writes sue Hewitt

Most youngsters get up to mischief, but Point Cook teenager Jake Wilkinson gets up to magic.

It started when he was 11 and watched a television program revealing the tricks of stage magicians.

“I got a couple of coins and started practising making them vanish and appear – and it worked,” he says.

Now 16, the year 11 Bayside College student hopes to conjure up a career of magic. He’s been practising his tricks professionally at various shows and parties for the past two years.

Following in the footsteps of Australian illusionist Cosentino, who finished second in the 2011 series of television’s Australia’s Got Talent, Wilkinson auditioned for the show last year and will try again this year.

“There were three auditions and I got through two, but didn’t make the final cut,” he says.

Wilkinson says he is often compared to Steven Frayne, the magician known as Dynamo.

“Dynamo is from Manchester [England] and so am I,” he says. “I like to take the best from people like Dynamo and Cosentino and make the magic my own.”

Wilkinson’s tricks involve cards – including “mind reading” what card a participant will choose – and linking and unlinking metal rings.

A favourite with audiences is putting a bottle on one side of a table and a glass on the other, covering each with a metal tube and switching their location. He has mastered the Harry Houdini trick of getting out of a straitjacket. But

unlike the great illusionist, he’s not allowed to test his skills under water.

Wilkinson regularly performs for children at The Brook on Sneydes, a Point Cook venue, but now he’s branching out to adult shows.

“There is a trick behind every bit of magic,” he says. But when asked how he transfers a ball from

his hand to a child’s palm, he answers: “magic”. After all, he has spent too many years learning and practising the tricks to give away the secrets so easily. \

MotoriNg \ rod easdown tries out the name game

How many Volkswagens are called Herbie? Being a big, boofy insensitive bloke, I don’t really hold

with naming my car, and I must admit to becoming quite impatient with people who call their Volkswagen Herbie. But some people do get it right. The guy over the road has twin BMWs that he calls Donner and Blitzen. And my favourite is the Mercedes with the personalised plate “Was his”.

Then there was a mate of mine who bought a 15-year-old jet-black Cadillac in San Francisco and drove it to New York, where he sold it for $200 more than he paid for it. He called it Darth Vader because it spent much of its time revealing his dark side.

A survey by the Auto Alliance, an organisation of 12 car companies in the US, found that about a quarter of owners name their vehicle, largely based on its appearance.

The under-35s are more likely to name their car, and women are more likely to do it than men. But men are more emotionally attached to their cars and those who do choose a name usually go for one that’s famous, such as a historical or movie character. The name tends to be female, be it complimentary (Sweet Sue) or not (Black Betty).

Now an insurance company has used the

Things you didn’T know abouT moToring … Rear-hinged car doors, like those on the Rolls-Royce Phantom, are commonly known as suicide doors. Rolls-Royce prefers the term coach doors.

survey to publicise a touchy feely approach it is taking in its phone room, where operators will have the car’s name on their screen when the client calls in. So they get “Hullo Mrs Smith, how’s ‘The Diet Coke Man’ today?”

Of course, there’s complementary advertising as well, one featuring a 10-year-old sedan named Lola driving beautifully along a country road while the soundtrack is a cover of the gutsy old Kinks standard, Lola. I didn’t get it.

For all of those uncaring folk who haven’t named their cars, the insurance company has introduced a website nickname generator that makes suggestions after quizzing car owners about their hobbies and the car’s model, colour and odometer reading.

The odometer reading was the bit that got me so I asked the company. It seems that the older a car gets, the more emotionally attached (read silly) its owner becomes.

Nor is it a money thing; people are generally more fond of faithful old bangers than new, highfalutin’ plushmobiles.

I gave the nickname generator a go, feeding in the details of the road test car I was in at the time and some stuff about myself. It suggested Barbie. So that’s something I’ll never do again in my life. \

BasketballWerribee Devils are back for a second season in the Big V basketball men’s championship. The Devils will tip it off in a home clash with the Eltham Wildcats at the Werribee Sports and Fitness Centre on March 16.

FootballWyndham All Abilities Football Club is on the lookout for new players for the Football Integration Development Association’s new season. The club calls Warringa Crescent in Hoppers Crossing home and that’s where its pre-season training will begin on March 13 from 4.30pm. The team is open to men and women aged 14-45 with a disability. The regular season will commence on April 6. \

VFLWerribee Tigers are hoping that mature-aged ruckman/key position player Dylan Reid can � ll a void in its big-man department. The Tigers’ ruck stocks were hit hard with Ben Brown drafted into the AFL and youngster Darcy Fort moving to Footscray. Reid, 25, has been super-impressive with Aspley in the NEAFL competition in recent seasons and his experience will be a valuable addition to the Tigers’ squad. \

four-way test in the westBowls

Hoppers Crossing is jousting with three western rivals for premium home � nal positions in Bowls Victoria’s division 3.

In an incredibly tight race, Hoppers, Melton, Altona and Werribee all have 11 wins, four losses and a draw.

� e third-last round was supposed to o� er an insight into which of these clubs would poke its head in front in the race for the top two, but matches were cancelled at the weekend because of the heatwave.

Hoppers president Daryl Marendaz was pragmatic about an unavoidable situation.

“I suppose that’s all right – we’ll share the points,” he said.

Hoppers Crossing had displayed great consistency this summer – until its shock home loss to Sunshine VRI in the last round.

Marendaz is con� dent it was just a blip, even if it did cost his side top spot.

“� ey’ve had a pretty good year,” he said of his out� t. “� ey’ll give a good account of themselves for the � nals.”

Hoppers Crossing is keen to seal promotion this season.

Skips Dennis Hewitt, Keith Vanderpol, Bill Russell and Grant Baxter will leave no stone unturned in their bid to see the club achieve its goal of returning to division 2.

Marendaz says it’s important for his club to play at a higher level to attract younger players.

“We’ve got a pretty good loyal membership, but it would be nice to have a few more younger ones,” he said.

“If we can win that division, we might pick up another couple of players because success breeds success.

“� e higher you go in the competition, the more that will come.”

Hoppers Crossing will face Melton on the

road in a top-of-the-ladder showdown on Saturday.

� e game will have a huge bearing on the � nals make-up and provide one side a psychological edge.

“It would be nice to go up there and knock them o� on their own turf,” Marendaz said. \

cat in a hot spinvtca

Sanka Abeyruwan has spun Hoppers Crossing into a winning position against Old Mentonians in the Victorian Turf Cricket Association’s senior division.

� e exciting young Cats leg-spinner snared 5-48 o� 18 overs in the heat at Hogans Road as the visitors were dismissed for 177.

Abeyruwan, 21, arrived from Sri Lanka with big expectations and he’s starting to deliver.

He took a while to settle in and understand the local wickets, but in the past two matches he has taken consecutive � ve-wicket hauls to have 22 wickets at 18.9.

� e ever reliable Darrel Brown claimed 2-41 o� 14, while Dinesh Daminda took an e� cient 1-25 o� 14, including the prized scalp of Mentone opener Ross Zelem for 87.

� e Cats faced 13 overs before stumps, � nishing on 1-28, with opener Cameron Nicol (7) and Ryan Latham (13) still alive. A further 150 will see the Cats claim their third win in � ve games.

In west B1, the Wyndhamvale Falcons fought back late on day one to get within touching distance of victory against Kingsville Baptists at Wyndhamvale Reserve.

� e Falcons managed only a meagre total of 149, Stuart Crowe top-scoring with 34.

� e bowlers, led by Jae Styles (4-18), hit back to have Kingsville reeling on 9-82 at stumps.

Seabrook (3-43) is locked in a tight battle with Deer Park-Ardeer (158) at Bruce Comben Reserve.

It’s a must-win game for the Brookers, who are clinging to a spot in the top four by just one point.

� ere’s plenty still to unfold in the match between top-of-the-table Point Cook (5-103) and Barkly Street Uniting at Maribyrnong Reserve. \ LJ


tough ton a tiger tonicvsdca

Tim O’Brien’s steely resolve on a baking-hot Saturday has given Werribee the upper hand over Williamstown on day one of the Victorian Sub-District Cricket Association western derby.

O’Brien refused to yield to the inconsistent bounce of the Chirnside Park pitch or the Melbourne heatwave, producing a rock-steady 106 not out to create a slight wedge between the two sides.

� e top-of-the-ladder Tigers � nished on 9-238 from 65 overs, an imposing total on a day when 15 overs were lost to the heat policy.

Tigers captain Shaun Dean was thankful

Nick of time: Werribee’s Tim O’Brien timed his century run to perfection. (WAYNE HAWKINS)

that O’Brien had the concentration to battle it out and prop up the innings.

“Every time we looked to accelerate, we had to consolidate again because we’d lose a few wickets in a row,” he said.

“When wickets were falling around him, he brought the innings back and pulled the ascendancy our way.”

� e Tigers were at a crossroads on 3-59.� e cavalier David Wolfe had come and

gone for an entertaining 31, while Dean lost an arm wrestle with Matthew Inness to be out for 16.

A 66-run fourth wicket partnership between O’Brien and the free-wheeling Michael Freeman turned the tide.

Freeman scored at a run-a-ball to

contribute 40 to the partnership, with O’Brien simply letting him go to work.

“When ‘Frees’ came in, the game could’ve gone either way,” Dean said.

“ But he came out and really punished them.”

When the heat got the better of Freeman, O’Brien picked up the slack .

It was O’Brien’s second century of the summer, but it did break a barren run of scores in his past � ve digs, in which he’s averaged just 6.25.

� e Tigers will be taking aim at their 11th straight victory when the Seagulls’ run chase start s on Saturday. \

centurions split honours with ‘payback’ saintsvtca

Werribee Centrals secretary Chris Du� n declared it “honours even” a� er the opening day of the grand � nal rematch between the Centurions and St Andrews.

� e sides that squared o� in last summer’s Victorian Turf Cricket Association west B1 � nal have reignited their blossoming rivalry in the north A1.

It is a critical game for the Centurions, who are in fourth last spot on the ladder, a position that would send them back to the bottom tier with the Saints if the season ended today.

� e Saints, occupying last place and with their relegation fate sealed, are yearning for a bit of payback – and what better way than to put a spanner in the works of the Centurion survival hopes.

To spice things up even more, former Centurions player-coach Phil Crea is in the enemy camp with the Saints a� er making a mid-season switch .

“ We have to come away with a win to get further away from the relegation zone,” Du� n said. “And they want to extract some revenge for the grand � nal . We had a couple of guys that played for our club before who are

now playing for St Andrews, so it was always going to be a big battle.”

� e Centurions eked out 8-128 on day one, a respectable total considering it was shortened to 41 overs because of Melbourne’s heatwave.

� e tailenders have some work to do upon resumption of play on Saturday if the Centurions are to post an imposing total.

“� e guys were a bit disappointed ,” Du� n said.

“� e most important thing is we bat the [19] overs we’ve got le� ... anywhere upwards of 140 or 150 will be a good total.”

Shaun Jennings was the shining light for the Centurions with 54. He featured in a face-saving 72-run � � h wicket stand with Luke Allister (21).

Allister has a knack of � guring in important partnerships at just the right times for Werribee.

“� ere’s been a few times when he’s been able to put on a crucial partnership for our side and get us out of a bit of trouble,” Du� n said.

� e Centurions must get it right on Saturday or face a nerve-racking � nal round a week later. \ LJ

bees’ ‘toil’ gets them into premier league

Werribee City is one of 30 clubs to have been invited into the inaugural National Premier League Victoria (NPL) competition .

� e Bees will join Green Gully Cavaliers, Melbourne Knights, St Albans Saints and Sunshine George Cross as the western suburbs’ representatives.

Bees sports director Giorgio Pastorini said “hours and hours” of toil was needed to make the submission a successful one.

“� e club is excited to know we’re in,” he said.

� e structure of the inaugural NPL is yet to see the light of day outside Football Federation Victoria headquarters.

Pastorini strongly believes it will be a two division promotion and relegation system for year one.

“We presume they will make two divisions, but we don’t know which one we’ll be added in,” he said.

“We should be in the top one given that we gained promotion last season, but you never know.

“We don’t know anything else until this week because they are really giving us information drop by drop.”

� e NPL itinerary will be released on February 26. \ LJ

GIANT BATS LET WIN SLIP AWAY Baseball

Werribee Giants frittered away chances in the batter’s box and wasted a quality start from young pitcher Wes De Jong to lose 4-3 to the Williamstown Wolves in Baseball Victoria’s summer league division 2 western derby at Presidents Park on Sunday.

“� e di� erence in the game was that we had 14 strikeouts and they only had � ve,” Giants coach Phil Balzer said.

De Jong produced one of his best outings of the season in unfavourably windy conditions.

He departed the game two outs into the eighth inning with the scores level a� er a strong 97-pitch battle with Wolves starter Jason Lester.

“It was a challenging game given the conditions,” Balzer said.

“� e wind was blowing across the � eld towards le� � eld. � at made it di� cult to catch � y balls. � ey were swirling around.

“Usually in those conditions, pitchers don’t do that well, but both pitchers did an outstanding job to keep the opposition down to only a few runs.”

De Jong is a strong candidate to play US college baseball, according to Balzer.

“He’s been pretty strong in almost every

outing this year,” he said. “He’s quite accurate with his pitches; he’s learning from one outing to the next and he doesn’t make many mistakes.”

Matthew Howe was the only Giant who took to the visitors’ pitching. He hit two-from-three and had a walk in a stand-out performance.

� e Giants had extra innings in sight when a squeeze bunt was laid down with Andrew Christou at third base, but Jason

Christou ploughed into Wolves catcher Jason McDonald a split second late a� er a jaw-dropping play by pitcher Josh Lee.

“Andrew was charging home and the pitcher dove forward and in one action just � icked it up to the catcher,” Balzer said.

“It was a miraculous play; I’ve never seen it done before. ”

� e Giants will be hoping to bounce back against St Kilda on the road on Sunday. \
