Coffs Harbour Regional Conservatorium Director, Pat Brearley gave News Of The Area insights into the four ensembles. “With term two coming to a close, the Classical Showcase Concert saw four ensembles take to the stage on Thursday 17 June and perform an exciting and inspiring performance from students of all ages. “Conservatorium ensembles continue to expand and this term, audience members enjoyed performances from the Junior Academy, the Coffs Con Youth Orchestra, q Coffs Conservatorium Youth Orchestra.

Junior Academy performed with confidence and excitement and are certainly students to keep an eye on in the near future, soaking up the vital experience and opportunities provided through the program. “The Adult Chamber Ensemble (ACE) followed the Junior Academy and performed an expanding program, including a traditional New Zealand Sea Shanty featuring Mahler on the drums and guest vocalist Kerrie. “After a large stage reset, the Youth Orchestra took the roof off with their energy, excitement and passion for their music. “Conservatorium violist Felix put his exceptional arranging skills to use, arranging the opening and closing pieces (soundtracks to the game Ark and movie The Dark Knight) and pieces by Mozart and Schubert filled out the program. “This concert showed once more what a valuable asset to the community The Coffs Harbour Regional Conservatorium really is,” said Pat.

Coffs Harbour Police arrest four on drug supply charges FROM Page 1 Motorcycle Gang (OMCG). Detective Chief Inspector Guy Flaherty told News Of The Area, “These arrests are significant in that they relate to the ongoing supply of cocaine and methamphetamine in the Coffs Harbour area; in
particular the links to organised crime.” Detectives attached to the Coffs/Clarence Police District, assisted by officers from State Crime Command’s Strike Force Raptor – involving nearly 60 police officers - have had this investigation ongoing since Nov 2020 and in the last month have seized over a kilo
of cocaine and over $400k in methamphetamine. Charges for large commercial supply of cocaine can carry up to 20 years in jail, said Mr Flaherty. “These are significant operations, and it is fair to say that this operation is ongoing. “There will be further arrests made.
“It’s a clear signal to those who want to be involved in the distribution of drugs, in particular cocaine and methamphetamine, that the police may currently be investigating you and you may get woken up at a time that is convenient to us and very inconvenient to you,” said Mr Flaherty.
q Detective Chief Inspector Guy Flaherty said four arrests had been made on Wednesday morning.

Police intelligence and covert operations indicate that during COVID there has been increased demand and reduced supply of drugs and that’s increased the cost of drugs within the area. “We anticipate that this will impact the supply.” Police intelligence does show that when they take out one set of drug dealers another set will take up in their place. Mr Flaherty continued, “This is a clear indication to the community that if you are involved in the use of drugs you need to consider where
the drugs have come from. “We have identified premises where drugs are made in acid…these drug dealers do not apply themselves to work health regulations and standards and leave themselves in the position to make money out of others’ misery, and they put their end users at further risk as a result of the chemicals they use to make those drugs.” Also seized were three cars, a Harley Davidson motorcycle, jet ski and two trail bikes, believed to be the proceeds of crime.

Green Light for Coffs Conservatorium Extension By Andrea FERRARI
EXTENSION plans are coming to fruition for the Coffs Harbour Regional Conservatorium (CHRC) building in Bray Street as 2021 records the largest number of new enrolments. The Coffs Conservatorium Extension Project will see much needed additional teaching spaces as well as the only purpose-built early childhood music space on the Coffs Coast. The past five years have seen exponential growth for Conservatorium programs and student numbers. CHRC employs 25 staff, has programs available six days a week, a busy concert calendar, and offers an exceptional level of music education and performance opportunities within the region. With this comes the need to expand to accommodate the Conservatorium’s growing community. In 2018 CHRC purchased the adjoining building which in a past life was a café. The building will house
two large teaching studios, a purpose-built early childhood music room, a waiting/foyer area, and a board/meeting room plus additional storage capacity and bathroom facilities. Significant work will also be undertaken to the existing drum room, making it into a state of the art drum and percussion room with dual air lock doors and a floating floor, assisting q
with sound proofing and recording potential. Pat Brearley, Conservatorium Director, told News Of The Area, “I’m incredibly excited about this new phase for the Coffs Conservatorium. “We strive to deliver the best opportunities to our community and the extension project will see some fantastic facilities be made available to the entire region. “It will create further employment opportunities

Council in favour of future $44m CBD highrise COFFS Harbour City Council has recommended approval of a proposed $44 million residential and retail highrise development slated for the Coffs CBD area in its assessment report for the approval authority, the Northern Regional Planning Panel. The development application for the 13-storey highrise will be determined by the Northern Regional Planning Panel due to the development’s high cost of more than $44 million, which sees it classed as ‘Regional Development’. The proposed development will be located opposite C.ex Coffs at 1531 Harbour Drive and
The site is located within the Coffs Harbour CBD and adjoins a twostorey vacant commercial building (formerly The Kitchen Shop), the Cinema Walk Arcade, Jack Simmons Centre, Harbour Drive and Vernon Street. The proposed development is also located to the west of the approved twelve-storey Gowings Hotel development located above Coffs Central Shopping Centre. The development is expected to encourage further redevelopment in the City Centre in response to expected district growth, the Pacific Highway bypass, and City Centre developer incentives for employment generation and residential projects.

The competition has run every year from 1989-2021 and grew to be one of the largest of its kind in NSW. Its objectives were to encourage people to do something healthy while helping to beautify our city, to be conscious of the need to care for our environment, and to be ‘water wise’ in their gardening practices. Judging was always done
by an independent, qualified judge from out of town to ensure the integrity of the competition.

SAWTELL Rotary Club and the Sawtell RSL are teaming up with Coffs Coast Days for Girls to present an information session about the program on July 17. Days for Girls (DFG) is a notfor-profit organisation that has a network of teams and chapters around the world and our local team is the Coffs Coast Days for Girls. DFG aims to address the issues that impact on girls in developing countries who do not have ready access to female hygiene products. This lack of access means that girls often stay home from school or their workplace and miss out on educational opportunities and earnings. Days for Girls provides appropriate care kits which include specially designed reusable pads and cleaning and information resources that among other things allow girls to thrive at school, and
improved education then leads to a better standard of living. Coffs Coast Days for Girls is a dedicated small team led by Merran Storrie and Theresa Peppernell. They source material, cut and sew the pads and liners as well as bags, the kits are assembled with underpants, moisture proof bags, hotel size soap and sent to those in need, the kits last for three years and allow girls to attend school every day for every month. An information day is being held at the Sawtell RSL from 2pm on Saturday July 17 to inform the community about this work, seek donations in kind and to ask for volunteers. Volunteers may sew kit components but if you are not a sewer there is plenty of opportunity to cut cloth, pack kits and iron items. You could also host a fundraiser. Gerry De Gabriele from Sawtell Rotary Club told News Of

Councillor expenses policy to go on public exhibition By Emma DARBIN COFFS Harbour City Council’s draft Councillor Expenses and Facilities Policy has been placed on public exhibition for community comment. Council has reviewed and amended the policy and has also developed a draft Councillor Induction and Professional Development Policy. These policies provide details of what resources, facilities and professional
development is available to the Mayor and Councillors. At Council’s recent meeting on Thursday 10 June, councillors unanimously agreed to give public notice of Council’s intention to adopt the Councillor Expenses and Facilities Policy and publicly exhibit it for 28 days until 9 July. The Councillor Expenses and Facilities Policy is required by the Local Government Act and establishes accountability and transparency in providing facilities, resources
and reimbursing expenses incurred by the Mayor and Councillors. The policy has been amended to display current monetary limits set for travel, seminars, conferences and professional development for the Mayor and Councillors. The payment by Council of expenses and facilities provided within the policy are in addition to Councillors annual wages. Expenses include general travel expenses, accommodation and meals, professional development, ICT expenses, and carer

Councils are also required to develop an induction program, as well as an individual ongoing professional development plan for each Councillor and the Mayor. The draft Councillor Induction and Professional Development Policy details the development, delivery, evaluation and reporting on the induction and professional development programs provided to the Mayor and Councillors. The policy states its purpose is to “demonstrate Coffs Harbour City Council’s commitment to ensuring that the Mayor and Councillors have access to induction and ongoing professional development which will assist them to develop and maintain the skills and knowledge required to effectively perform their civic role and responsibilities”. Council will develop an induction program for new and returning Councillors, as well as a supplementary program for the Mayor, to ensure they are provided with all the information they need to effectively fulfil their roles in the first few months of Council’s term. A Council report on the policies stated, “policies are an important communication tool used by Council for providing our community and general public detail on strategic aims, commitments and obligations”. “Policies are important for ensuring transparency and accountability in local government. “These policies demonstrate a commitment to ensuring elected Councillors are provided with adequate resources to fulfil their role.” The draft Councillor Expenses and Facilities Policy can be viewed at https:// haveyoursay.coffsharbour.nsw.gov.au/.

Community consultation on vaccines SIXTY per cent of North Coast residents who responded to a community consultation on COVID-19 vaccination either plan to be vaccinated or have been already. A further 18% said they would probably have the vaccine, 10% said they probably wouldn’t and 12% rejected the idea of COVID-19 vaccination. Healthy North Coast, which delivers the Australian Government’s PHN program from Tweed Heads to Port Macquarie and inland, partnered with 89 Degrees East to develop the short online survey. It ran from 14 April to 15 May 2021 and attracted more than 1,000 respondents. Healthy North Coast CEO, Julie Sturgess, thanked all participants for sharing their thoughts and feedback. “These responses from across the community help us to understand local sentiment, what people are thinking and how we can best serve their needs,” Ms Sturgess said.
“We’re interested in people’s views on vaccination and we’re carefully studying the feedback we’ve received, to help shape the local rollout of the vaccine program. “In the meantime, Healthy North Coast will continue to support our primary health carers and the community to stay COVID-safe right across the region.’ Key findings from the survey include: • 22% of 35–44-yearolds say they would ‘definitely not’ get the COVID-19 vaccine • healthcare workers are more likely to be ‘vaccine champions’ (43%), as are over 65s • The local government areas of Byron, Clarence Valley, Coffs Harbour, Lismore and Port Macquarie-Hastings indicated strong support for getting a COVID-19 vaccine, with more than 60% of respondents saying they had had a vaccine already or were definitely intending to. • More than 30%

of respondents from the local government areas of Bellingen, Kyogle, Richmond Valley and Tweed said they probably wouldn’t or definitely wouldn’t get a vaccine. The survey found 56% of people who support vaccination intend to get the jab when the vaccine is available to them. This compares to 42% from a national survey in April. Ms Sturgess said it was understandable there was a level of vaccine hesitancy. She said Healthy North Coast would continue to provide the community with evidence-based information and guidance while supporting the Australian Government’s national vaccine rollout. “As we look to analyse and understand the survey results with other health sector partners, we expect to provide additional information on the findings and how they can help us tailor our approach to local communication, resourcing and engagement,” she said.

Create your own silk scarf By Andrea FERRARI
COFFS Harbour Creative Arts Group (CHCAG) hosted two one-day workshops at the Coffs Harbour Showground Gallery, on June 19 and 20, where participants discovered the mysteries of eco-dyeing, using foliage, natural dyes and heating processes to create complex
and rewarding patterns on paper, fabric, and the pièce de résistance, a silk scarf. Tutor Kerrie Stewart supplied all the required materials, although students were welcome to bring any sourced foliage for their own experimentation. “Absolutely no skills (artistic or otherwise) are needed to participate; we

encourage people to simply come with an open mind and a willingness to learn and apply what they’ve learned. “The tutor is always there to guide, suggest, and instruct,” Isabella Brandli, CHCAG told News Of The Area. “The fun started with learning various eco-dyeing techniques on drawing and watercolour papers, cards, and fabric pieces, building the students' knowledge and enthusiasm for their final

More Police on the Coffs Coast COFFS Clarence Police District welcomes two new probationary constables after their graduation at last week’s Goulburn Police Academy ceremony. Minister for Police and Emergency Services David Elliott congratulated the 192 new recruits who bring a fresh boost to the Force. “Congratulations to the men and women of class 347 on their graduation. “They join the NSW Police Force at its strongest and most efficient,” Mr Elliott said. “After eight months of world-class training, the attesting officers join their stations on Monday 21 June and invigorate the policing capabilities of this state.” The NSW Government has committed to invest $583 million to introduce 1500 extra police over four years to enhance community safety across NSW and is investing $60 million over four years to upgrade the Goulburn Police Academy.
Class 347 includes 137 men and 55 women. Some recruits entered the NSW Police Academy straight from school or university, while others left established professional careers and trades. The new probationary constables come from diverse backgrounds. Twenty-one recruits were born overseas in countries including Jamaica, the Philippines and China. Many are from non-English speaking backgrounds, with seven recruits fluent in a second language including Arabic, Chinese and German. Seven recruits are Indigenous with one recruit coming through the Indigenous Police Recruitment Our Way Delivery (IPROWD) program. “Our new police officers have chosen a career of service and will be a vital asset to the people of the Coffs Coast,” Member for Coffs Harbour, Gurmesh Singh said. “I would like to take this opportunity to thank the new officers for their contribution and congratulate them on the start of their exciting careers.”
q Art tutor Kerrie (centre) with happy students showing off their hand-crafted silk scarves piece: a silk scarf, measuring 30 x 180cm. “It's an exciting atmosphere as foliage is selected and put into position, the natural dyes are chosen, and then anticipation while the scarves undergo the final heating process before the big reveal.” Classes are strictly limited in numbers to ensure there’s time for Kerrie to discuss the techniques, display and review finished items, and for each
participant to ask questions, and take full advantage of Kerrie's vast knowledge and experience. “Although the placement of foliage on the scarf and the use of natural dyes gives some indication of the final result, the end process (heat) and how it all comes together, produces an always-thrilling and somewhat unexpected product: a beautiful silk scarf that's all your own work, with some magic included.” The Coffs Harbour
Creative Arts Group has more one- and two-day workshops happening later this year: Drawing and Sketching Portraits from Life, Landscapes/ Seascapes Drawing in Charcoal, Exploring Acrylic Inks, Hemp Paper Making, Aquatic Themed Painting, Drawing Portraits and Painting Portraits. Check out their website or Facebook page for upcoming exhibitions, classes, workshops, and demonstration days.
Pedestrian left in critical condition after being hit by car in Sawtell POLICE are appealing for witnesses after a man was hit by a car south of Coffs Harbour last week. About 6.50pm on Thursday 17 June 2021, emergency services were called to the intersection of First Avenue and Bridge Street, Sawtell, after reports a man had been hit by a Toyota Corolla travelling south. The driver – a 45-year-old woman – stopped to render assistance prior to NSW Ambulance paramedics arrival. The 43-year-old man was airlifted to
Gold Coast University Hospital in a critical condition. The driver was taken to Coffs Harbour Health Campus for mandatory blood and urine testing. An investigation into the circumstances surrounding the crash has commenced by officers from Coffs/Clarence Police District and the Traffic and Highway Patrol Command. As inquiries continue, anyone who may have dashcam footage or who may have witnessed the incident is urged to come forward.

Lions’ Support for Health Campus By Andrea FERRARI DONATIONS of $146,000 from Woopi Lions’ fund-raising events has gone to support patients at Coffs Harbour Health Campus. The Woolgoolga Lions Club is positive proof that you don’t need to be big to make massive changes in your community. This small service club has donated tens of thousands of dollars to local, national and international charities and organisations in the past six years. Their latest donation includes a $16,330 bladder scanner for Community Health at Coffs Harbour, Woolgoolga, and Bellingen and $16,776 worth of mobility equipment for the Coffs Harbour hospital’s Stroke/
Rehabilitation Unit. Stoma/Continence Nurse Consultant Mandy Hawkins said her team was indebted to the Lions for the bladder scanner. “The Lions’ donation significantly reduces the risk of infection, trauma or discomfort for our patients,” Mandy told News Of The Area. “It assists us in providing a more comprehensive assessment and, therefore, more effective management and improved health outcomes for our patients. “We can’t believe how lucky we are to have the support of the Woolgoolga Lions they have changed our service for the better.” Stroke/Rehabilitation Nurse Unit Manager Karen Longworth was also grateful for the support.

“Our patient numbers are growing within our community so to have the Lions come to us and say ‘we’re here to help’ is just amazing. “This single donation means we can add much-needed rehabilitation equipment to our unit to better meet the growing demand. “The Woolgoolga Lions Club members are now part of our rehab team. “Their generosity will make an enormous difference to the recovery and rehabilitation of our wonderful patients.” Club President Jean Vickery, named NSW Community Hero of the Year earlier this year, said the donations were made possible because of the dedicated Lions and community volunteers who coordinate and participate in a range of community and fundraising activities, including the operation of the waste transfer station at Woolgoolga each weekend on behalf of Coffs Harbour City Council.

‘Together We’ll Fix It’ team announces Housing Strategy By Andrea FERRARI HOUSING supply and demand is a key issue of the Housing Strategy just released by the ‘Together We’ll Fix It’ team, headed by Coffs Harbour Mayoral candidate, Rodger Pryce. There is no better time than now, to get more residential land on to the market, Rodger said.
q Rodger Pryce asks Council to release more land for housing.
“Council owns quite a large amount of land in different parcels, some of which would make ideal residential land estates. “I also see no reason why, as a Council, the community should not invest in acquiring land from private landowners at a fair market price, engaging private enterprise to produce blocks of land,” said Rodger. “We know that housing is primarily a State and Federal matter. “We need to be on our elected representatives’ doorsteps, working as closely as we possibly can.
“Our team is not yet elected, but already I have been engaged in dialogue with our State Member, constantly seeking ways to ease the crisis. “The Bray St/Argyll St initiative can only be the beginning; we need to keep our government’s focus on this urgent issue.” “Recently, homelessness is spreading through to other sectors of our community, where quite simply, there are no properties to rent. Homelessness NSW’s Regional and Rural homelessness online forum in March cited inclusionary zoning as a medium-term action to ease the precarious housing situation, calling individuals to lobby NSW Government and local councils to create a meaningful level of affordable housing.

It's a simple equation of supply and demand, Rodger told News Of The Area. “This is a crisis placing those who never imagined not being able to find a place to live, into a world of uncertainty. “The only solution is more accommodation to ease the supply, lessen the demand.” Commonwealth Bank chief economist Stephen Halmarick said at a Committee for Economic Development of Australia (CEDA) web conference on Tuesday June 15, “It’s really going to be important to focus on the supply side…to accelerate the construction of new residential property.” “We’ve done it before in Coffs LGA, we can do it again,” said Rodger.

Japanese collaborations with Coffs Harbour By Andrea FERRARI
EMBASSY of Japan in Australia’s Deputy Chief of Mission, Mr Shutaro Omura visited Coffs Harbour for The National Cartoon Gallery’s Opening Night of Manga Mania on June 18 and spent the day learning more about Coffs Harbour as a visitor destination. Mr Omura toured the Japanese Garden within the Botanic Gardens and afterwards spoke with high school students of St John Paul College on Hogbin Drive,
who are studying Japanese. My Omura told News Of The Area, “I was gratified to learn that the Japanese Garden constitutes an important attraction of the Botanical Garden which provides tranquillity and sense of pride to the people of Coffs Harbour. “Everything from tea house to wooden gates and stone lanterns reminded me of what Japanese gardens are like in Japan. “I could also sense in many parts of the Garden friendship and goodwill between Coffs

and Sasebo (Coffs Harbour sister city). “Visitors would certainly appreciate the beauty and delicacy of Japanese gardens. “Maintenance of Japanese gardens is always challenging in particular overseas because of the difference in climate and species of animals and birds living nearby. “I was impressed by the dedicated work by gardeners and volunteers in the Japanese Garden in this regard. “If I have a chance, I would like to come back to the Japanese Garden again to see

these manga on display are the creations of artists whose artistry and storytelling reflect that of their own country and culture through this unique Japanese medium. “Over the course of this exhibition, I hope that these award-winning works encourage you to read manga and inspires those budding comic book artists out there to dive into the world of manga,” said Mr Omura. Many young fans of Manga Art were also at the opening inspired to return for a series of workshops planned for the school holidays.

Lions launch new youth volunteer program By Emma DARBIN
A NEW youth certificate program has been launched to reward community-minded students who volunteer within their local area. The Lions Young Leaders In Service award program was recently established by the Lions Club of Woolgoolga and Woolgoolga High School. The Lions Club of Woolgoolga said it is challenging young people to realise the rewards of service to their local community. “As adult volunteers, we
know that community service leads to personal fulfillment and experience that is important to success,” Lions Club of Woolgoolga President Jean Vickery said. “We also know that young people who volunteer become adults who serve. “Our current initiative challenges young people to achieve significant levels of community involvement.” By meeting the challenge, local youths aged between 12 and 18 will be eligible for the Lions Young Leaders In Service awards.
A free Lions community bbq was held on Sunday 13 June at Woolgoolga Community Gardens with local volunteer groups involved in the new program to allow interested participants to learn how to become involved in local community service activities. "There were many community groups in attendance at the community bbq who expressed their interest in supporting students to achieve their service award,” Woolgoolga High School teacher Karen

THE Regional Seniors Travel Card program is to be extended for an additional two years in 2022 and 2023 at a cost of $246 million. First introduced as a trial in 2020, the program has issued cards to over 660,000 people so far and can be used for pre-booked NSW Trainlink Regional trains and coaches, fuel and taxis. To be eligible for the $250 prepaid Visa card, people must have reached the Age Pension Age, live in a designated regional area and be receiving one of the following• The Age Pension
through Services Australia or the Department of Veterans’ Affairs • A Disability Support Pension or a Carer Payment from Services Australia • A Service Pension issued by the Department of Veterans’ Affairs • A Disability Pension through the Department of Veterans’ Affairs under the Veterans’ Entitlements Act 1986 • A War Widow(er)’s Pension issued by the Department of Veterans’ Affairs. Commonwealth Seniors Health Card (issued by Services Australia or the Dept of Veterans’ Affairs) are
also eligible. State Treasurer Mr Dominic Perrottet said, “I was initially sceptical about this program, but after the success of the trial I am now a true believer, and I am very pleased to be able to extend that trial now that it has been proven to work, this card makes a difference in the lives of our older regional residents.” Member for Coffs Harbour Mr Gurmesh Singh noted that the trial program was initiated in Coffs Harbour and that the feedback that he had received indicated that it had had a huge impact on the local community and
welcomed the extension of the card. More information
Private Land Clearing Shows Weak Environmental Protection By Andrew VIVIAN
THE Coffs Harbour Greens are concerned about what appears to be extensive land clearing in Nana Glen. Up to 20 hectares appears to have been cleared in the Bucca Bucca Creek catchment. Greens spokesperson, Jonathan Cassell, was alerted to the clearing activities from a member of the community
and is concerned by the failure of the current state government to protect intact ecosystems on private lands and support farmers to move towards sustainable practices. Mr Cassell said, “This clearing of land may in fact be legal since there are unfortunately now many ways to legally clear endangered communities and species habitats with unclear
regulations. "We cannot ignore that we have a problem with land clearing in NSW with the Local Land Services Act overriding threatened species protections for rural lands including the clearing for agriculture and forestry.” The Department of Environment, Energy and Science reported that since 2017 there has been a 60%
increase in land clearing in NSW as a result of the scrapping of vegetation laws. "There is a worrying silence about land clearing on the Coffs Coast that threatens to impact our water catchments, biodiversity, tourism jobs and our community’s resilience to climate change,” Mr Cassell
about eligibility and which regional areas are included in this initiative can be
said. “As we move to a zeroemissions world, farmers should be paid money in NSW to sequester CO2 and protect our water and air by retaining vegetation,” he said. The Greens, and others, are concerned that not enough consideration is being given to the impacts of land clearing on the safety of our drinking water, food security and the recreational values intact ecosystems offer the
found at www.service.nsw. gov.au. entire community. Mr Cassell said that for the long term benefit of farmers, local economies and wildlife, the government should take its lead from emerging carbon markets, particularly internationally. "If we do not stop the widespread clearing of land in NSW, our Australian bush and the viability of farming will suffer irreparably and that would be as a direct result of current policies,” he said.

Gurmesh Singh, Member for Coffs Harbour told News Of The Area, “Post COVID we need to open out our economy with events like this that drive ongoing, long-term success of the area. “The Grant allows this
event to come back bigger and better to place Curryfest firmly on the events map.” Pam Fayle, Chair of Curryfest, told News Of The Area, “This event probably brings in around $2 million. “Our past figures show that on average people stay three-and-a-half days: they book accommodation, buy things locally and eat out. “It affects the whole Coffs Harbour area.” Pam warns that many of the nearby accommodation venues are pretty well booked-up for the dates, with Curryfest day-long event happening on Saturday 25 September. Friday is going to be spectacular, too, according to Pam and Gurmesh, with L-Fresh The Lion, a well-known Sikh hip hop performer, playing at a venue to be confirmed, and again on Saturday on the main stage. “He’s a great young bloke,” said Gurmesh, with Pam adding, “Having him enables us to appeal to a younger crowd.” “I remember attending my first Curryfest about ten years

New Life Farm emerges after wipe-out
By Andrea FERRARI
EMERGING from flood damage, New Life Farm market garden in Sapphire Beach has reopened
after eight weeks repairing, reworking and future-proofing the farm. “Drought, bushfires, floods in February and December 2020
and then the third flood in March 2021 wiped us out with no food to sell,” Darren Smith, Farmer at New Life Farm told News Of The Area. Turning the closure into an opportunity has driven the five-generation family-owned farm to rework some practices and install structures to create a more resilient produce-growing operation. “We'd planned for some infrastructure improvements to try to future-proof ourselves

and be able to sustainably continue to grow. “This included building a large grow tunnel, correcting some drainage and starting works on a new garden that would be more flood-resilient. “We created a new pick-up area that had been on the cards for the past five years, it's now allweather and easy for customers to collect their produce from the farm. “It was all hands on deck with Al (partner) and Mum and Dad chipping in every day. “We were very fortunate to qualify for some flood relief funding via the NSW Rural Assistance Authority which was to cover the cost of labour to help us get back up to speed. “We wouldn't be in the position we're in now without it, we're very grateful for the assistance.” The farm has reopened its
online farmer's market store with regular customers returning in droves. "We opened the shop on Sunday morning and were sold out within the day." The farm has big plans for the future, the third market garden in the growing. The family will be “implementing all the lessons we've learned in gardens one and two”, said Darren. “There are plans for a more extensive orchard, with varieties of fruit that will grow well in this climate. “We’re working on some portable grow tunnels to further secure our growing ability through all weather.” Darren’s great, great grandmother, Sarah Jane Wake nee Stringer, bought the farm in 1910, hence the farm’s address of Wakelands Road.

Bellingen documentary getting out there THE ‘Bellingen: The Promised Land' film documentary by Mid North Coast veteran talents, Peter Geddes, former journalist and Bellingen resident in the 1970s, and Pete Gailey, lifetime film editor, continues its emergence into wider availability with a showing in Bowraville Theatre last Sunday June 20. It's a gem of a film sharing the untold story of Bellingen’s hippie history and the conflicts with the town’s residents during the 1970s and 80s. Pete Gailey rhetorically asked News Of The Area, “After eleven sold-out showings in Bellingen in December 2020 and January 2021, the Screenwave International Film Festival

The slowly, slowly local approach is slowly gaining traction and feedback is enthusiastic.

Councillor to hang up hat after 30 years By Emma DARBIN LONG serving Coffs Harbour City Councillor Keith Rhoades has announced he will not be contesting the upcoming Local Government Election in September, after taking time over the weekend to make the decision. Cr Rhoades is the longest serving Councillor ever elected to Coffs Harbour City Council, first elected in 1991 and receiving community support to be re-elected at every election since then. He has also held the position of Coffs Harbour Deputy Mayor in 2000, and was then elected as Coffs Harbour City Mayor in 2004 where he continued to serve until 2012. “It’s been a fantastic trip there’s no doubt about that, I’ve seen a lot of things happen in this town, I’ve seen it grow,” Cr Rhoades said prior to making his decision. “I have the passion to continue, but I just got to answer those questions in my mind ‘is there anymore you can achieve, is there anymore you can do?’ “It was a hard decision to make, as Local Government has been a large part of my life.” In 2008, Cr Rhoades was elected to the Board of the Local Government Association of NSW, then elected by his peers to serve as the State President of Local Government NSW, a position he held for the next seven years.
“With water restrictions common in our area at the time, a solution had to be found,” Cr Rhoades said. “We now have the Shannon Creek Dam In 2010, he was appointed to the Board of Supply, which has secured the usage and the Australian Local Government Association future growth of both areas for the next 70 and during that time he served two years as years.” the Vice President of the association, before But, without a doubt his favourite standing down in 2017. project was his commitment to During his 30 years of service, seek the support of his fellow Cr Rhoades has been involved councillors in 1992 to in numerous decision making construct the Coffs Harbour recommendations, but he says International Sports some of his favourites include Stadium, now known his support for the Coffs as CEX International Harbour Airport upgrade in Stadium. 1993. “Support from “Coffs Harbour Regional State and Federal Airport is now recognised as Governments over one of the best in regional the years now has the Australia,” Cr Rhoades said. stadium classed as the He served on the Coffs best sporting facility Airport Development/Focus in regional group for 29 years.

balance program, specifically designed for people aged 50 to 100+. It aims to improve strength, balance, coordination and endurance through regular resistance and balance training. COTA NSW (Council on the Ageing NSW) has partnered with Mid North Coast Local Health District (MNCLHD) to launch the program. The classes will be delivered by local exercise professionals who have completed specialised training to be accredited as a Living Longer Living Stronger instructor. Firstly, participants have a one-to-one assessment with their instructor who then develops a program tailored to each individual’s needs to safely maximise
“The facility now injects well over $40m to the local economy each year.” Despite his integral and unwavering support for these important projects, Cr Rhoades said “no one councillor can achieve results without the support of the majority of their fellow councillors”. "I found it easier to work with colleagues on common sense projects and this made the decision making process easier,” Cr Rhoades said. “But there was opposition along the way to most issues and I respected that. “I thank all those I have worked with, both elected members and staff, over the past 30 years and feel privileged to have known them.” Cr Rhoades also wished to thank all the community members that supported him at past Council elections and throughout his time as a Councillor and Mayor. “But my biggest accolade goes to my wife Trish and my family for all their support over my time as a Councillor,” Cr Rhoades said. “I could have not done it without them. Cr Rhoades wished all the candidates standing for the upcoming Coffs Harbour Local Government election well. “I enjoyed my experience in Local Government and wish all candidates well in the upcoming election in September,” he said. “If you stand on a platform of achieving local outcomes for your local community and not introducing party politics you may well succeed. “There is no place for party politics on Coffs Harbour Council; Local Government is about local people making local decisions on behalf of local residents.”

Charges range between $50 - $85 for the assessment
and $8 - $15 per hour for classes. “We are excited to be able to refer people to the Living Longer Living Stronger program once they have finished our active ageing programs such as Stepping on and Healthy and Active for Life Online,” MNCLHD Health Promotion Coordinator Trish Davis told News Of The Area. “It’s so important that older people in our community can continue along their health journey with a program like Living Longer Living Stronger to achieve healthier outcomes, improved wellbeing longterm, as well as the added social benefits.” Starting in July, contact Mid North Coast Physio now to book your assessment.

Regional and Rural Tourism infrastructure funding announcement By David TUNE
ON Wednesday June 16, the NSW Deputy Premier Mr John Barilaro and Member for Coffs Harbour Mr Gurmesh Singh held a media conference at Sealy Lookout to announce a new State Government fund of $30m for tourism infrastructure in regional NSW. The fund will be available in two streams, with Stream One offering grants between $200,000 and $5 million for projects delivering unique
and high impact visitor experiences, while Stream Two grants of between $50,000 to $500,000 will be aimed at projects that will improve the accessibility and inclusion of tourism experiences for people with disability. The funding of the Regional Tourism Activation Fund comes from the Government's $2 billion Regional Growth Fund and is aimed at increasing tourism opportunities in the state and encouraging people to

travel and holiday in regional NSW while overseas travel is restricted. Mr Barilaro said, “We have an opportunity to showcase regional and rural NSW and take advantage of the pandemic influenced boom in tourism, and to upgrade our infrastructure and give people a reason to come off the highway and holiday.” Mr Singh said that the recent NRL match at the stadium and upcoming Super W Rugby tournaments put the region on the map and often lead to people returning for holidays and tourism experiences.
Funding could go towards projects like the already approved upgrades to the Nyanggan Gapi café and other cultural tourism offerings around Niigi Niigi (Sealy Lookout) and surrounding areas. Coffs Harbour Mayor Denise Knight told News Of The Area that one possible area that might benefit from the funding was the Jetty precinct and Jetty itself. Applications open 16 June and close on 11 August 2021. For more information, go to: www.nsw.gov.au/ RTAFund.

Council designates projects for potential grant funding By Emma DARBIN
THREE important regional projects will be submitted to the latest round of the Stronger Country Communities Fund for potential funding, following a recent resolution made by Coffs Harbour City councillors. The projects include sports lighting at Ayrshire Park, Boambee ($165,500), female change rooms for hockey ($495,500), and the West Coffs Cycle Way project ($543,500). Council staff had originally proposed nominating to allocate only $223,500 to the West Coffs Harbour Shared Path, Gundagai Street cycleway project and to allocate $320,000 to the Woolgoolga Beach Reserve Carpark construction in Carrington Street. However, Cr Sally Townley moved an alternate recommendation at Council’s meeting on Thursday 10 June to remove the proposed funding for the Woolgoolga Beach Reserve Carpark and transfer it to the West Coffs Cycle Way project. “We’ve had a few goes at trying to get the West Coffs Cycleway project across the line,” Cr Townley said at the meeting. “It’s a big project and it
requires big chunks of funding. “We’ve had a couple of goes at trying to put those chunks and I would recommend to councillors that we perhaps use this opportunity to get more of that project completed.” Cr John Arkan questioned allocating the cycleway project two lots of funding and removing the funding for the Woolgoolga Beach Reserve Carpark in Carrington Street. “I adore the West Coffs Cycleway and I understand it needs a lot of funding,” Cr Arkan stated. “There is funding of $223,000 this time and some funding to fix that massive problem over there in Carrington Street that Woolgoolga is facing. “I would suggest a little for both would be an appropriate way, as opposed to taking away a project altogether in this round of funding.” Cr John Arkan said Carrington Street needed “a lot of work done to it now” and likened the street to a “mud slop”. “That street there needs a lot of work really quickly,” Cr Arkan said. Cr Keith Rhoades also spoke against the alternate recommendation. “I come from the school
of if there’s a pot of money, try and give it to as many as you possibly can,” Cr Rhoades said. “The community would get a feeling of, ‘there’s a little bit of something in there for me’.” Cr Rhoades said he believed the West Coffs Cycleway project would attract government funding to assist with its completion. “I believe the worthiness of that project, it will attract government funding to see it’s progress completed in shorter than the anticipated time,” Cr Rhoades said. “It is a good project, there’s no doubt about that, but when you look at those facilities for the Carrington Street Reserve Carpark project there's a lot in there for a very broad and strong cross section of our community.” Cr Michael Adendorff supported the additional funding for the West Coffs Cycleway project and said the completion of the project was “long overdue''. “I’m pleased to see it’s moving in the right direction,” Cr Adendorff said. Cr Paul Amos said Woolgoolga had already had its fair share of funding lately. “The West Coffs Cycleway from memory has been
over three decades. “While many will say this is a radical action, I know it is an obligation,” the protester said. The protesters and their supporters say that Forestry Corporation has no social or cultural license to log native forests and often fail to oblige by their own regulations. Protesters point to other forests in NSW which have been protected through community direct action. A spokesperson for the
group said, “The power has never been with the politicians or corporations but has always been in the strength of the people.” The protester who locked themselves to the harvester was removed after 9 hours by Search and Rescue and arrested. The protester will face court on 5 July, along with four people who were given notices to attend court arising from the protest at the Forestry Corporation

Cr Arkan urged councillors to support the

original Council staff motion to fund all four projects. “It’s a balanced approach of allocating funds across the LGA,” Cr Arkan said. “The balanced approach I think councillors is important, the funds were allocated in a fair and balanced way. “I can guarantee that the removal of $320,000 from the Woolgoolga Carrington Street area will put a dampening on a really big problem there at the moment.” Cr Townley’s alternate motion to only apply for funding for the three projects and remove the Woolgoolga Beach Reserve Carpark funding allocation was approved. Council endorsed that the following three projects
be submitted to the Stronger Country Communities Round Four for funding, including sports lighting at Ayrshire Park, Boambee ($165,500), female change rooms for hockey ($495,500), and the West Coffs Cycle Way project ($543,500). The NSW Government has committed $100 million through Round 4 of the Stronger Country Communities Fund to support community projects that increase the liveability of regional NSW communities. This includes up to $50 million for projects that enhance female sporting facilities and increase female participation in sport. Successful projects will be announced in September.

According to the group’s spokesperson, none of the protesters have been arrested or been in court before and some are in their 50’s. He said that a growing number of people are showing that they value native forests, healthy waterways, wildlife, sacred land and the future, and pointed to the success of Camp Nunguu. He said that the success of the camp, established three months ago in the
media@newsofthearea.com.au
Newry State Forest, seems to have resulted in Forestry Corporation changing its schedule to log Wild Cattle Creek. More than 500 people have stayed at Camp Nunguu and another 500 visitors have arrived for film nights and other activities, including Bob Brown. The spokesperson said that citizen scientists were doing animal, plant and environmental surveys in Wild Cattle Creek to ensure that environmental regulations were being followed.
He said that this is because the Environment Protection Authority had only previously acted when protesters provided evidence of illegal activities. He claimed that the company logging in the area is the same one that had stop work orders against them last July. He said, “We are simply there to protect a publiclyowned forest from potential breaches of environmental laws and ongoing destruction of our forests. “We’ll keep resisting as long as we can,” he said.

Red Cross Distinguished Team Awards By Andrea FERRARI
RED CROSS Volunteer Emergency Service Teams in Bellingen, Coffs Harbour and Woolgoolga have each received an Australian Red Cross Distinguished Team Award. The awards originally presented in Sydney (World Red Cross Day) by Mr John MacLennan, Chairman of NSW Red Cross were presented again at the RFS Headquarters in Coffs Harbour as many could not travel to Sydney due to COVID concerns. This prestigious award recognises team participation, dedication and commitment
to working with people and communities so that Red Cross can achieve its purpose, to support and empower people and communities in times of vulnerability by mobilising the power of humanity. Team Leaders Angela Slater (Bellingen), Maureen Hammond (Coffs Harbour), Annette Dodsworth (Woolgoolga) and their volunteers proudly attended a local recognition event to accept the awards from MP Gurmesh Singh and Coffs Harbour Mayor Denise Knight. During the 2019-2020 Black Summer bushfires, teams provided support
across multiple sites in Bellingen, Coffs Harbour and Grafton LGA. Members also supported other agencies, made outreach calls to check on the welfare of impacted community members, assisted in applying for grants and linked other agencies to help gain access to their services and support. Team members are continuing to support their communities in the aftermath of the fires, promoting Emergency Preparedness and attending Community Recovery and Wellbeing events. “Earlier this year the Woolgoolga team were called

Council takes action to fix tip odour By Emma DARBIN
OFFENSIVE odours emanating from the Coffs Harbour Waste Management Facility will be addressed by Council under a series of new measures, including increasing the height of the landfill site by 4 metres in the interim. Much debate ensued on the issue at Coffs Harbour City Council’s meeting on Thursday 10 June, with many councillors of the belief that Council must take responsibility for its past mishandling of the issue. The Englands Road Landfill site at North Boambee Valley has been operating as the primary landfill for Council since the 1960s and is now reaching its end date. Council staff had recommended that the landfill site be increased in height by 10 metres, from 32 metres to 42 metres. Cr Sally Townley, however, moved an alternate recommendation that Council commit to seeking a 4 metre rise in the landfill height at the Englands Road facility in the interim, and meet with Bellingen Shire Council and Nambucca Valley Council to discuss landfill height options, pathways to transition to secure and sustainable waste and resource recovery actions, and progress towards a sustainable waste
management solution for the region. “I think we all agree that our transition to a secure and sustainable waste management option for our community is long overdue,” Cr Townley said. “This (motion) is something that we’ve got to go forward, it's some sort of commitment that we’ve got to the community. “The time is now, a little bit less conversation, a little more action.” Cr Townley likened increasing the landfill height by eight or ten metres to putting on a bandaid. “Putting an 8 metre or a 10 metre height on the landfill is literally just putting a bandaid,” Cr Townley said. “The solution is not just to make the landfill higher, but it’s a whole integrated regional solution. “I hope we all take some sort of responsibility in some way for not driving this harder and faster and earlier.” Cr Townley also questioned Council at the meeting over its failure to disclose to the public the amount of money it has spent on legal fees against Council’s waste management contractor Biomass. “Why is it a secret that we’ve spent $4.3 million dollars on legal fees and we’re not disclosing it, when the Local Governor General regulation requires us to
disclose a summary of all the amounts incurred by Council in relation to legal fees?” Cr Townley asked at the end of the Council meeting. “We’re required to disclose that annually.” Council’s Group Leader Government Services stated, “yes, that is required to be disclosed in the annual report on litigation matters on an annual basis”. Cr Michael Adendorff called on Council to report on the current odour issues at the tip and the measures to be implemented to control the offensive odours emanating from the facility. “This is a multifaceted endeavour and there are aspects that are out of our control, which is in the control of Biomass, but I think we need to take responsibility for what is outside of our control and we need to find a holistic solution to this problem,” Cr Adendorff said. Cr Keith Rhoades questioned what action Council had taken in the past two months to fix the “obnoxious odour problem currently being emitted from the tip”. “That’s what the community wants to know,” Cr Rhoades stated. Council’s Director of Sustainable Infrastructure Mick Raby said the odour issue had been investigated and the findings indicated it was “a one off issue with the landfill”. “It's a section of the landfill that was filled and closed off about 12 months

ago,” Mr Raby said. Council has been undertaking a “recapping process” to address the odour issue. “We are making positive progress, the gas readings are continuing to fall,” Mr Raby said. Cr Rhoades also called on Council to provide the community with an “end date” to the offensive odour emanating from the tip. “It’s been going on for so long, we’ve got to have an end date,” Cr Rhoades stressed. Mr Raby said he couldn’t provide a specific end date but that the Council was making “significant progress”. “We will fix it, it will be fixed, whether that takes a week, a month, six weeks I honestly couldn’t commit to,” Mr Raby said. “I would suggest it’s a matter of weeks rather than months.” Cr John Arkan was
against raising the height of the landfill in the interim and believed this action would not fix the problem. “I don’t think we should be raising that wall again a little bit or a lot,” Cr Arkan said. “Are we really gonna fix it in that spot; the odours are there because possibly it’s full. “I would suggest the odours haven’t got an end date because we haven’t got an end date and that’s possibly because that area is full, it’s not the space for a tip anymore.” Councillors voted 5 votes to 1 in favour of Cr Townley’s motion with Crs Paul Amos, Michael Adendorff, George Cecato, Sally Townley and Keith Rhoades voting for the motion and Cr John Arkan voting against. Council will now seek a 4 metre rise in landfill height at England’s Road as an interim
Woolgoolga’s Lillipilli Exhibition call to artists By Andrea FERRARI
WOOLGOOLGA Gallery’s major annual Lillipilli Art and Craft Exhibition - a legend in the NSW’s North Coast art world announces its entry closing date, inspiring a flurry of painting in preparation. With entries closing on August 13, September will be a big month for Woolgoolga Gallery as the almost 40-year long Lillipilli Art and Craft Exhibition opens. “We are expecting around 200 entries, going by what is happening in other galleries, and with the lock down last year everyone has been keenly painting,” Sherilyn Hawley from Woolgoolga Gallery told News Of The Area. “Landscapes usually have the most entries.” The volunteer-run exhibition attracts prize
money of almost $5,000. There will be six sections each with first and second prizes, plus a major prize for the grand champion. There will be five independent judges and a people’s choice award. A renowned event in the art calendar, drawing entries from all over NSW and interstate, Lillipilli was always managed by Woolgoolga Art Group, previously held in two different locations in Coffs Harbour. “This was in the 80s - it was brought back to Woolgoolga in 2014,” said Sherilyn. Woolgoolga Art Group, Gallery Co-ordinator, Jane Mann said, “The exhibition is a win for the gallery and the Woolgoolga businesses who sponsor the event as it brings visitors to town to see the art and visit our

measure, commence the preparation of documents required for a development application, and meet with Bellingen Shire Council and Nambucca Valley Council to discuss landfill height options, and pathways to transition to secure and sustainable waste and resource recovery actions. Council will also progress towards a sustainable waste management solution for the Coffs Harbour LGA, receive bimonthly reports on progress towards a new waste management solution and report on odour emissions, investigate and report within one month on measures being implemented, their results and future measures at the facility to control offensive odours emanating from the facility, and investigate and report on the existing facility being converted to a waste transfer station.

No ashes for attorney
JOAN was married to Patrick for 15 years. Joan has three children from a previous marriage, being Brian, Angus and Julie. When Joan began developing early signs of dementia, Joan and Patrick appointed each other as their enduring power of attorney. The usual provisions of their power of attorney allowed the spouse to “confer benefits” on him or herself. As Joan’s condition deteriorated, she told Patrick to “enjoy himself” as she knew his life would be centred around caring for her. It was not long before Patrick took over Joan’s affairs as her attorney. Out of Joan’s investments, Patrick purchased a new car to drive her to appointments and to do the weekly shopping. Over the following years, Patrick also took respite holidays by himself; a cruise that they always wanted to do together, and a holiday Turkey, where they had honeymooned and a trip to the Ashes, a life-long dream for Patrick. When Joan dies, it is revealed that Patrick had spent over half of her investments, which otherwise would have been inherited by her children. Brian was very angry and as Joan’s executor, audited Patrick’s actions. Although many of the expenses Patrick claimed were reasonable, and he thought he was acting with the blessing of Joan in taking overseas holidays, Patrick was required to pay a considerable amount of money back into Joan’s estate, as only reasonable gifts and living expenses are permitted. Joan’s power of attorney could have included a power for Patrick to pay for respite holidays. It is important to consider all the options when recording your attorney’s powers, to ensure all parties are clear on the powers that are granted.

Don’t judge egg selection DEAR News of the Area, I WAS reading the letter to Jasminda on Friday June 18’s ‘On the Couch’ and I feel I have to comment. How dare Liz speak
to that customer on their choice of eggs? Did she consider that person may not be able to afford the Free Range Eggs as they are much more expensive?
Perhaps Liz should speak to the companies that put those products on the shelf (not the store manager, as they do not have a choice what goes on the shelf). I purchase free range myself but that is my choice and I can afford them. Belittling a person is not the way to go Liz. Regards, Susan TIERNEY, Arrawarra.
Spotted: Australian Zebra Finch
DEAR News Of The Area,
ON Wednesday last week my wife and I were walking on the promenade at Grange over Sands, Lancashire around 3:30 pm when she stopped me as she had spotted a tiny bird just in front of us on the
ground by the railings. It was grey with orange legs and red patches either side of its beak. It showed no fear and we watched it for 20 mins before it flew off. Another man who stopped looked it up on his
smartphone and declared it to be an Australian Zebra Finch. Shortly after another passerby confirmed this observation. I had left my camera in the hotel as it was an overcast day! Regards, Marjorie and Robin HIGGINS, Barnoldswick, Lancashire.

This graph highlighted the vast difference between the predicted and observed temperatures. In view of his eminent qualifications I believe he

Just another misunderstanding DEAR News Of The Area, MY heart went out to Francesca Montanara in her task of sourcing a venue for the huge numbers involved in the Coffs Harbour and District eisteddfod dance sections this year in D block theatre at the CHEC. As a past president of the Eisteddfod society I am fully aware of the annual difficulties in finding
a venue which largely depends on the good will of the various schools and appropriate facilities ready to accommodate large numbers of dance studios and school groups involved in such a complicated undertaking. It would have been kinder of the journalist to acquaint Ms Montara with the facts which indeed offer a light at the end of the tunnel rather than to allow her to confuse the Cultural and Civic Space with the Coffs Harbour Entertainment venue

drying clothes because I like to match the pegs and hang the clothes depending on who owns them and then play the
'match the sock' game, which never ends well because of the sock-eating washing machine.
I have, however, stopped putting the
washing away.
Now I just place piles of clean clothes
outside each person's bedroom where they invariably sit until desperation kicks in.
I feel that this is going to be a short-
term dilemma, because eventually they
will all leave home, or, if they don't, I will
leave home and join a commune where everyone wears easy-care clothing or
maybe no clothing depending on where the commune is located.
Desperate times call for desperate
measures.
I would simply implement a clothes-
washing roster for your offspring, or else wait until they have their own children and then bask in the joy of their appreciation even if it is 20 years too late.
Carpe diem, Jasminda.
(CHEV) of 600 - 1000 seats, the planning of which is a result of the Hawkridge Building Consultants' report. The CCV was never meant to house an entertainment venue, and to imagine one in place of the council rooms is nonsense too small and on the top floor. A real entertainment venue is on the horizon and much depends on any incoming council's vision and will to see it to the end. These things can be so easily snatched away. We need to think about the value placed on the arts when it's time to vote in September. Regards, Margaret ENGLAND, Korora.

Ukulele back with jamming at Sawtell By Andrea FERRARI
UKULELE players from the Coffs Coast were able to jam together again at 63 First Avenue for the first time in over a year since COVID restrictions deemed singing a ‘risk’ activity. Last Saturday (June 19) over 30 locals came together for the Sawtell Ukulele Jam. “We’ve been running the jams for the past four years, once a month at 63 First Ave,” Uko Ono’s Stephanie Sims told News Of The Area. “The jams are open to anyone who wants to come along for a sing and a play and the room just vibrates with joy.” Locals will no doubt have seen the Sawtell Ukulele Group perform at events such as the Sawtell Chilli
Festival, Fun Day, Summer Sessions and last year at the Coffs Stadium with Elton John. “We like to keep our repertoire a little left of centre and each month before the Jam we are running a ‘Bowie Workshop’ where we work through a different David Bowie song – so expect to hear a Bowie Medley when the group perform again,” said Stephanie. During the jam you’ll hear everything from ‘ZipA-Dee-Doo-Dah’ to ‘Midnight Special’ – people just call out songs from the ‘Ukulele Club Songbooks’ and the group pumps them out. The jams are also a great way for people to meet and make new friends. Two new Coffs Coast residents who moved to the
area, Vanessa and Efram, were so glad to ‘find their tribe’. “We hoped we would find a local ukulele group, choir and salsa classes when we moved here – today just about fit the bill,” said Vanessa. Another member commented, “Today I felt like I was in a band even though I’m only a beginner. “There’s definitely safety in numbers.” If you want to join in the fun, the next Sawtell Ukulele Bowie Workshop is on Saturday 17 July from 11-12.30pm followed by workshop at 1.30 – 3.00pm – check out the Uko Ono website for more details: https://www.ukoono.com. au/jam-sessions-for-2021/.

Woolgoolga Pizza Place still open and operating By Emma DARBIN
WOOLGOOLGA Pizza Place has responded to last week’s News Of The Area story on the store’s possible future transformation into a vet clinic by stating that it is still open and operating as a pizza outlet. A development application to transform Woolgoolga Pizza Place into a veterinary hospital at a cost of $138,000 was lodged with Coffs Harbour City Council on 2 June by Woolgoolga Vet Clinic (King Kookaburra Pty Ltd). Woolgoolga Vet Clinic is currently operating at 4 Market Street, Woolgoolga,

MANY local residents burn with white-hot anger at domestic cats roaming through their properties at any time of the day or night, pooping in their freshly turned vegie patches, flower beds and children’s sandbox, scaring and killing the native wildlife in their gardens, spraying their plants and buildings and even wandering into their houses. But currently in New South Wales, there

The pizza business has been up for sale for a while. “Because of COVID we’ve had so many people coming through,” Jill said. Woolgoolga Pizza Place is currently open from 12 noon to 9pm Wednesday to Sunday. A Council spokesperson said under the EP&A Act an applicant can lodge a development application for a property providing they have the property owners consent. “In regards to this DA, Council has received the current property owners consent for the DA to be lodged,” the spokesperson said.

for a year before moving to Booral on the Karuah River. However, his father was forced to find other work at Hinton, on the Hunter River where he met Rev. Ebenezer Henderson and the family was baptised and admitted into the Baptist church. The Fuller family, together with fellow church friend Mr John Bailey, moved to the head of Carr’s Creek, Grafton in 1862 to share a farm. Aged 25, Robert junior was second in the party of four which travelled to the Kempsey land office in February 1881. He chose lot 7, comprising 60 acres, on the north side of Coffs Creek to

within the central business area. Woolgoolga Pizza Place Owner Operator Jill Walsh wished to clarify to readers that the pizza business has not sold and is currently still operating as a pizza outlet. “They have not signed a contract,” Jill said of the potential new owners. “We definitely haven’t sold, we’re still making pizzas and we have a few interested people in the property. “We’re still operating, we’re still here.” Jill has owned and run the pizza business for the past 37 years, since it first opened in July 1984.
start farming in Coffs Harbour and was Peterson’s westerly neighbour. He married Elizabeth Wingfield of Grafton in 1884 and they went on to have four boys. In addition to farming, he also owned a team of bullocks and made two trips to Grafton each year for groceries and small orders for other settlers. Sadly, Elizabeth developed ‘a painful liver complaint’ and she passed away at Mrs Shephard’s house, on 10 June 1898 and was one of the earliest burials in the Methodist section of the Coffs Harbour Historical Cemetery. Robert and his four sons, aged
between 7 and 13, left the district, possibly to reside with his parents in Grafton. In 1903 however, all three generations of the Fuller family were back farming at Bonville Creek for a few years before moving to Myrtle Creek, halfway between Grafton and Casino. In 1914 his eldest son died after an operation for appendicitis and his two youngest sons enlisted to fight in WW1. During the 1920s he purchased property at Keith Hall, near south Ballina and remained there, dying on 15 August 1938 and was interred with his wife in Coffs Harbour.
Confine Domestic Cats in NSW
is absolutely nothing a person can do about it, because the definition of a “nuisance cat” puts a virtually impossible burden of proof documented “repeated” physical damage on the offended property owner. The argument that roaming domestic cats are “just doing what cats do” is ridiculous. All animals roam if allowed to, otherwise councils wouldn’t employ rangers to round them up. We don’t allow dogs or domestic stock to
roam freely through the neighbourhood, so why are domestic cats exempt? It beggars belief. To try and stop this, I have started an online petition to confine cats to their owner’s property. Confinement is recommended by the RSPCA and is in line with best-practice animal welfare. The petition has received nearly 5600 signatures in two weeks.
www.newsofthearea.com.au
It can be found by typing in “Confine Domestic Cats in New South Wales.” If you are as sick and tired of domestic cats roaming at will, sign the petition. You will never get a better chance to make your feelings known. Regards, Allen GREER, Mudgee, NSW.

Jane Austen’s final manuscript has been brought to life with lovely detail, making it a perfectly diverting period drama. What better way to wile away a winter’s Saturday evening than to dip into a world where top hats and flowing gowns are the backdrop to everyday life, and romance is always promising to bloom? When you’re lounging in your tracksuit after ordering takeaway pizza, it’s the epitome of escapism. Tonight, in the penultimate episode, Lady Denham (Anne Reid) is close to death, and the tensions between Edward (Jack Fox), Clara (Lily Sacofsky, above) and Esther (Charlotte Spencer) reach boiling point.
Scripted dramas and reality TV may be all the rage, so where do you go to soothe the soul with life-affirming stories and comic warmth? If you haven’t already made the discovery, it’s this unique interview series. With different interviewers each season – journalist and professor of global affairs Stan Grant and Paralympian Kurt Fearnley have asked the questions – this round boasts singer and drag queen Courtney Act (right). Through five episodes, kicking off tonight, she chats with some notable young people who are keen to make a difference. Tonight Lisa Origliasso, one half of pop duo The Veronicas, delves into sexism in the music industry and the pivotal role of family.

After a brilliant fourth season – which included an episode where Diane (Christine Baranski, above) lived in a alternate reality where Hillary Clinton was inaugurated as the US President, rather than Donald Trump – all hands should be waving high. Tonight, season five premieres, which is a welcome relief after season four was cut short thanks to the pandemic. Original cast members Cush Jumbo and Delroy Lindo are returning, while two new faces arrive: up-and-coming Aussie Charmaine Bingwa and the venerable Mandy Patinkin. 2506

Hockey Coffs Coast welcomes all comers By Aiden BURGESS
IT was a night out with her father which led to Ashton Rose playing the game she loves. “I had never played hockey before this year, and I was out having dinner with dad,” she said. “Dad wanted to come watch the hockey which was very random. “So we came here to watch a game at night, and I met half of the Bellingen team and they said ‘ok, you're joining our team we start next week'.” After never having played hockey before, the 19-year-old joined the Bellingen Bullrouts team which plays in the Hockey Coffs Coast’s women’s competition.
The new hockey player told News Of The Area about the support she had received starting out in a new sport. “I’ve only been playing for eight weeks and a lot of them have taken me under their wing being a new player,” she said. “That’s the thing about hockey, other teams coach you through the game when I was lost on the field, they stood there and helped.” After playing football for the Sawtell Scorpions for four years, the Bellingen player said hockey was now the sport for her. “I love soccer but hockey is something different and I love learning new skills, and Bellingen is an amazing club and has been so supportive.”
Rose’s team the Bellingen Bullrouts won their third division match 3-0 against the Orara Owls during the latest round of the Hockey Coffs Coast season. Hockey Coffs Coast Round 11 results.

Former Sawtell Swimming Club member qualifies for Tokyo Olympics
q Former Sawtell Swimming Club member Maddy Gough (right) is on her way to Tokyo.
By Aiden BURGESS MADDY Gough has realised her Olympic dream with the former Sawtell Swimming Club member qualifying for the upcoming Tokyo Olympics. The 22-year-old booked her ticket to Tokyo and a spot on the Australian Swimming team after breaking the Australian record for the Women’s 1500m freestyle at last week’s Australian Swimming Trials in Adelaide. Gough still holds the Sawtell Swimming Club records for the 15-year-old girls 100m butterfly and 400 metre freestyle, and the 16-year-old girls 400 metre freestyle that she set before moving to the TSS Aquatic in Southport to further her swimming career.
Sawtell Swimming Club board member Paul Stevens said club members couldn’t wait to watch a former club member compete on the biggest stage in world sport. “All our members will be excited to watch Maddy represent Australia in Tokyo and it will be inspiring for our young swimmers knowing that one of our former members is now an Australian record holder and Olympian,” he said. Stevens said the star swimmer moved to Queensland to pursue her swimming dream. “She used to swim and train at the club before moving to the Gold Coast in 2015 as her parents saw her potential,” he said. Stevens told News Of The Area there was a sense
of excitement at the club as one of their own would compete at an Olympic Games. “It’s pretty exciting and there is a buzz at the club because she’s come from a small club,” he said. Tim Raven coached the new Olympian at Sawtell Swimming Club before she moved to the Gold Coast, and told News Of The Area that it was no surprise she had qualified for Tokyo. “I definitely knew she was capable, and she has found her niche as she was always good at the shorter distances but she proved she was exceptional in the 800m and 1500m,” he said. “She’s such a good kid and really good to coach and easy going, and she had that natural ability as she just glides through the water.
“She’s worked really hard as she swims 50 to 60km a week even when the national trials were on.” Georgina Mallia’s son Luke used to swim with Gough as a junior, and said she could always see the potential his fellow squad member had. “She was always so
dedicated to swimming and very quiet and humble, and she always did seem to have the potential to make an event like the Olympics.” Gough has previously represented Australia at swimming making her debut at the Pan Pacific Championships in Tokyo in 2018, where she placed
6th in the Women’s 1500m freestyle, 4th in the Women’s 400m freestyle, and 7th in the Women’s 800m freestyle. She then represented Australia at the World Championships in South Korea in 2019 where she placed 5th in the Women’s 1500m freestyle.
boarding school and play for the Southport Sharks. The 18-year-old’s parents and younger sister still live in Coffs Harbour and she is a regular visitor to town whenever her football commitments permit. This year has been a breakthrough one for the former Breakers player, having been inducted into the Gold Coast Suns Academy and earning a place in the Queensland team for next month's 2021 NAB AFLW Under 19 National Championships. AFL North Coast’s Community Football and
Competition Manager Paul Taylor said Wynne would have the chance to nominate for this year's AFLW draft. “Casey has been invited to be part of the AFLW Draft Combine which is the physical and skills testing program that precedes the national draft,” he said. “Following the Combine players will have the chance to nominate for the draft which is their path to landing a contract with an AFLW club.” AFL General Manager Women’s Football Nicole Livingstone said the talent available in the 2021 NAB AFLW Draft, which could include Casey Wynne, will make for an exciting season
six of the NAB AFL Women's Competition. "We look forward to recognising and celebrating the many talented footballers who will be selected as part of the NAB AFLW Draft next month," she said. "What we're seeing year on year is great talent coming through women's football pathways across the country, and I can't wait for football fans to witness the next generation of talent to impact the NAB AFLW Competition." The NAB AFLW Combine will be held prior to the 2021 NAB AFL Women’s Draft which will take place on Tuesday, 27 July.
Former Coffs Harbour Breakers junior takes big step towards the AFLW By Aiden BURGESS CASEY Wynne has taken a huge step towards playing in the AFLW. The former Coffs Harbour Breakers player has been invited to take part in the 2021 NAB AFL Women’s Draft Combine.

Sawtell/Toormina Saint included in Allies team for National Championships
q Sawtell’s Angus Anderson has earnt selection to the Allies squad for the Under 19 National Championships.
By Aiden BURGESS
ANGUS Anderson has taken his place amongst some of the best juniors in Australia. The former Sawtell/ Toormina Saints player has made the Allies squad as he vies for selection for next month's NAB AFL Under 19 National Championships in Queensland. The Allies representative team comprises the best junior players from NSW, Queensland, ACT, Northern Territory and Tasmania, as they take on representative teams from Vic Metro, Vic Country, South Australia and Western Australia at the national championships. Anderson and his Allies squad will attend a training camp this weekend where they will vie for selection for the 2021 NAB AFL Under 19’s Championships which begin on 8 July.
Anderson’s inclusion in the Allies squad comes as a result of a number of standout performances for the Sydney Swans Academy Under 19 team in the NAB League, where he captained the team and was awarded best on ground in his side’s win against the Gippsland Power Anderson joined the Swans Academy after trialling for the Southport Sharks VFL team which saw him included on the supplementary list. The 18-year-old had an outstanding AFL North Coast season playing for the Sawtell/Toormina Saints in 2020, as he was awarded the under 17’s best and fairest as well as runner-up in the seniors best and fairest. AFL North Coast Community Football Manager Paul Taylor said the young midfielder was
an example for other North Coast juniors of what they could achieve if they put in the hard work. “Not only has Angus demonstrated his commitment to pursuing representative opportunities, he continues to show his commitment to local footy, turning out for the Sawtell Toormina Saints Senior team at every possible opportunity,” he said. “Last year's winner of the AFL North Coast Under 17 Best and Fairest and runner-up in the Senior medal is not only forging his own path towards the elite game, he's also showing the current crop of North Coast Force players that there's a pathway to the top from local footy if they're prepared to work hard enough.” The hard work has certainly paid off for the
of the game which threw us about. “But at the end of the

THE Northern Storm defeated Kempsey Saints 2-1 to move into third spot of the Coastal Premier League last Saturday at Korora Oval. James Gorrie opened the scoring as he dribbled through the Kempsey defence and side footed the ball home to open the scoring. Kempsey Saints fought back in the second half but a Myk Watson goal sealed the three points for the Storm to leapfrog over Port Macquarie United into third place.

France and Frewen nod the Bombers to Victory By David WIGLEY
THE Boambee Bombers defeated Port Macquarie United 2-1 in last Saturday’s clash at Ayrshire Park to consolidate their position in the top two of the Coastal Premier League. Bombers captain Mitchell Brewster whipped in a dipping corner kick which Luke France nodded home to open the scoring and Tom Frewen came off the bench to nod the Bombers to victory and take the three points. Bombers captain Michell Brewster was pleased to see the team bounce following dropping points on the road. “Over the last few weeks we’ve had some pretty poor results so to bounce back like we did today against a quality side like Port was crucial for us going forward. “I feel like we played well in patches today and our structure in defence kept Port’s forwards fairly quiet for the majority of the game. “Although we didn’t create as many chances as we’d like today the boys made the most of our opportunities from our set pieces. “In the second half we started slow which we then paid the price for and that’s something we can’t afford to keep doing in the near future. “While we aren’t at full
strength at the moment we should have a few boys returning from injury soon to bolster the squad for the up and coming rounds,” said Mitchell. Bombers coach Adrian Pickup gave News Of The Area his assessment of the match as the team entered the second round of the competition. “Port United started the stronger with Boambee being a bit slow to start again, Port started to pass the ball around and found out how hard that is to do

After a slow start to the season they have rocketed up the ladder in recent weeks to third spot. Macleay Valley Rangers: 16 points. 5 wins. 1 draw. 4 losses. After an up and down start to the season, the Rangers have climbed up the ladder winning 3 of

on a very bouncy Ayrshire Park. “Again the Boambee defence was up to the task and kept any chances that Port created were long shots. “We grew into the game and once the players passed the ball around the game turned in Boambee's favour in the second part of the first half. “Boambee created a few chances and were rewarded for their efforts with another classic headed goal from Luke France. “From a series of corners, Luke’s header from beyond the far post was a classic France header. “Once we were one nil up, I expected Boambee to dominate but Port took the game to Boambee but again the defence held strong, half time one nil to Boambee. “(The) second half

was again end to end but a strong left hand attack saw the number 11 for Port inside the box and a very strong left foot put the ball past the young Boambee keeper, a great strike. The next period of the game saw both sides continue pushing the ball around without testing either keeper. An injury to Christian Penny brought on centre forward Tom Frewen for the Bombers, who got his head on the end of a cross, beating all defenders and the keeper to put Boambee 2-1 up. “Port again continued to press and had a few chances but again the Boambee team defended well,” Adrian said. “Yes another win to Boambee but yet again another game that wasn’t up to the standards the players want to play, but
the 100% effort again was outstanding,” said Adrian. Port United coach Nathan Wade was disappointed with the result and thought his side deserved more. “Very disappointed with the result, we dominated good periods of the game and we played extremely well,” Nathan said. “They also played well and to their credit their tall guys put two headers in from corners, our team deserved a draw at the very least but sometimes that’s football,” said Nathan. The three points consolidated Boambee’s position in the top two whereas Port United dropped into fourth position.

Touching Harts in NAIDOC Week By Judith MCNEILL
THIS NAIDOC week (411 of July 2021) the Coffs Harbour Touch Association will be joining forces with the well-known Hart family to run the Larry and Rod Hart Touch Carnival. As the upcoming carnival comes into its 4th year, Kristy Hart reflects upon her dad and uncle, who were the inspiration for the NAIDOC week event. Kristy’s father, Rod Hart, and his brother, Larry Hart, were talented sportsmen known for their prowess on the league and touch footy fields, as well as in the boxing ring. They played for the Sawtell Panthers, Coffs Harbour Comets and Orara Valley and were part of winning premiership teams. However, it was their contribution to the Indigenous community and the greater Coffs Coast

Kristy exudes pride as she explains how they used sport to better the lives of those around them. ”Every year they trained and led the Coffs Harbour Raiders for the annual Koori Knockouts. “They brought people together and made the community proud. “Wherever the team played, everyone would travel to support them.” Uncle Larry was the oldest sibling, and he was wellknown for his leadership and game management. With a smile, Kristy remembers how Larry’s “gamesmanships antics could always put the opposing teams off their game.” Rod and Larry were both aware of how sport could bring people together and uplift those that were struggling. When players had no transport to games, they would go out of their way to do pick-up and drop-off.

“The money dad made refereeing footy games, he would put towards the fees of players that couldn’t afford registration,” explains Kristy. Rod was also involved in the now-defunct ATSIC board and the Local Aboriginal Lands Council representing the Coffs Harbour community. Through their sporting endeavours, Larry and Rod made lifelong friendships and connections to their community, especially their Indigenous brothers and sisters. After their passing, Kristy and her cousins, Toni-Anne Hart and Relle Donovan, made it their mission to ensure that the Hart brothers’ legacy continued. In 2018, with the help of Relle’s husband, Anthony Donovan, they organised the inaugural Larry and Rod Hart Touch Carnival. That first year, it was held at Fitzroy Oval, a location important to the local Gumbaynggirr people. Also known as ‘Old Camp Yaam Nguura Jalumgal’ the

The Larry and Rod Hart Touch Carnival has been an annual event ever since, and in 2021 it will be hosted by the Coffs Harbour Touch Association at the Sawtell Toormina Sports and Recreation Club. Kristy and her family hope to attract even more players and teams to the carnival, as it is a great way to “develop new friendships and have fun just like Uncle Larry and Dad did when they played touch footy or league. It’s a good time to catch up with everyone over a game of touch, a sausage sandwich and cuppa.” Kristy also comments that the carnival is perfectly timed during NAIDOC week, a time for Australians to celebrate the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. “Uncle Larry and Dad were two great Aboriginal men, who gave so much to
