Naidoc Edition
THE annual NAIDOC edition of Dubbo Photo News is here! Was it on again, off again? We flicked the switch to be ‘on’ and then official activities got bumped to November due to COVID-19. Our decision to go ahead anyway exactly reflects a mood running through all the stories inside, about our Aboriginal community members and organisations, which is positive and hungry for independence. Ngali Shaw, pictured here, is a case in point. He’s a young man who is writing his own story – not the one history or society might like him to have, but the one he wants. On Tuesday this week he released a new album and a music video from its first single. Inside this edition you’ll find more stories about people and organisations who are doing it for themselves, like the school student who is one of just nine in the state to be awarded a traineeship named after Australia’s first female Aboriginal pilot. How inspirational is that! Or, the man who lost his way to drugs and alcohol and is now mentoring others toward a better life, or the young couple redefining Aboriginal culture and economy in ethical and sustainable ways. These stories counter stereotypes and go a long way towards breaking down barriers. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/EMY LOU

IN BRIEF
Official NAIDOC Week 2020 celebrations to be held in November
Local businesses wins rail project contract
DUBBO PHOTO NEWS is aware National NAIDOC Week 2020 celebrations this year have been rescheduled to November due to COVID-19, however our annual edition is pre-planned well in advance, and given the Black Lives Matter movement which has generated important conversations around the world, there is no time like the present. This year’s NAIDOC theme is “Always Was, Always Will Be”, and it invites all Australians to embrace the true history of this country, a history which dates back thousands of generations. “It’s about seeing, hearing and learning the First Nations’ 65,000plus year history of this country – which is Australian history,” the National NAIDOC Committee says. “We want all Australians to celebrate that we have the oldest continuing cultures on the planet and to recognise that our sovereignty was never ceded.” Keeping work on the Regional Rail Project local will help stimulate the economy and create jobs, according to the NSW State Government. Dubbo MP Dugald Saunders, Dominic Wilson (MAAS) and roads minister Paul Toole are pictured at the construction site. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/KEN SMITH Published by Panscott Media Pty Ltd Dubbo

By LYDIA PEDRANA LOCAL company Maas Civil has won the first major contract for works on the new multibillion-dollar Regional Rail Maintenance Facility. CEO Wes Maas said he was thrilled the Dubbo-based business had been awarded the tender where they are responsible for bulk earthworks ahead of major construction later in the year.
“It’s a great project, being the size it is and being local, there’s not many projects this size in our local region,” Mr Maas told Dubbo Photo News. Mr Maas expects the first stage of the project, which is already underway, to take three to four months and provide jobs for 30 to 40 staff. Announced earlier this week by Member for Dubbo Dugald Saunders and Minister for Regional
Transport and Roads Paul Toole, Mr Saunders said keeping the work local would help create regional jobs and stimulate the economy. “The Regional Rail Maintenance Facility will be a real boost for the Dubbo economy, and I look forward to other local businesses getting involved,” Mr Saunders said. “One of the major advantages of having projects like this in our electorate is the ability to keep our workers in work, especially in the
wake of prolonged drought and the COVID-19 pandemic.” According to Mr Toole, the project is expected to generate 200 jobs during the construction phases and approximately 50 ongoing roles once it opens, including apprenticeships and traineeships. “The $2.8 billion Regional Rail Project will create new opportunities for regional NSW businesses and suppliers such as MAAS Civil,” he said.

MALLETS MAKE MARK ON NEW COURT
Cancer Council slams vaping

“Three, two, Whistle...” and 60 coloured balls were stroked smoothly towards the centre peg on Australia’s first purpose-built synthetic croquet court which was officially opened this week. Dubbo Croquet Club president Patricia Shanks said the unusual tip off exemplified the shared nature of the local club. “Everyone is important here at Muller Park so we all hit off at the same time to share the historic moment in Dubbo Croquet Club’s 98 year history.” Next week Dubbo Photo News will share our exclusive photos taken from a drone in a special feature to celebrate a momentous occasion. Pictured is Bryan Smith in front of the brand new croquet surface with plenty of other club members in the background. Organisers are hoping the new facility will attract plenty more players to a game which is social as well as sparking gentle exercise. Below: as they say, “If you build it, they will come!”
NSW’S Cancer Council is at odds with the manager of Dubbo’s brand-new vaping shop. Cancer Council NSW Tobacco Control Unit Manager Alecia Brooks said young Australians represent the largest relative growth in e-cigarette, or vape, use in the country and claims the Federal Government’s plan to block the importation of liquid nicotine, which is used in e-cigarettes and already illegal to sell in Australia, will be of benefit to young Australians targeted by the industry. She’s slammed the tobacco industry for directly promoting the use of e-cigarettes to youth, and in turn, building a nicotine-addicted culture. “Restricting access to liquid nicotine to people with a medical authority will help to protect young people from nicotine addiction, those same young people who the tobacco industry and e-cigarette retailers are aggressively targeting to build a new addiction-based industry in Australia,” Ms Brooks told Dubbo Photo News. “This specific measure will close a loophole between provisions in the Poisons Standard to protect people from the harms of nicotine and opportunistic commercial interests in the tobacco and related industries, flouting the Poisons Standard to build an e-cigarette industry in Australia.” Madyson Young manages the Dubbo Super Vape Store which opened its doors last weekend and says the industry isn’t trying to target younger people but rather offer a better alternative for people looking to quit smoking and says the push for sweeter flavours for vaping is part of that strategy. She says those pushing to restrict access to liquid nicotine “don’t understand how beneficial it is for a lot of people because a lot of people have tried the Nicorette gums and the

sprays and the patches but it just doesn’t work, it’s adding more stress, it’s just affecting your mental health”. She added that by “coming to vaping you’ve got that same kind of comfort because you’re still getting that hit at the back of your throat”. “Some people want that throat hit to keep them off the cigarettes, some people like to start off vaping by going nicotine-free, but others do need nicotine for that transitional step. “All of the products that we sell are nicotine-free but unfortunately at the moment you do have to import nicotine from overseas so banning the importation from January 1, 2021, is causing a lot of uproar in the vaping community,” she said. There’s also disagreement between the two camps about the health effects when it comes to using nicotine-free products for vaping. Because e-cigarettes haven’t been around long, data about the long-term health effects is still being collated, but Ms Brooks from the Cancer Council warned that e-cigarettes are “not risk free”. “They (e-cigarettes) may expose users and bystanders to chemicals and toxins such as propylene glycol, glycerol or ethylene glycol that cause adverse health effects, and may increase the risk of developing cardiovascular, cancer and respiratory diseases,” she said. “E-liquids or vapour may also contain potentially harmful chemicals which are not present in smoke from tobacco cigarettes.” Madyson Young maintains that’s incorrect. Dubbo Super Vape Shop owner Miriam O’Hare told Dubbo Photo News she believes it’s important that vaping continues but says it does need to be regulated. “That is why regulated vape shops are so beneficial to the public who are trying to quit smoking,” she said. “Having fully trained staff to help them is so important.”

COVER STORY
TRIVIA TEST
A path for legends By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY FROM his bedroom in West Dubbo to the world, local rapper Ngali Shaw released his second album “A Path For Legends” on Tuesday this week. It’s now instantly available on YouTube, iTunes, Spotify and many other online platforms for audiences around the globe to hear and enjoy. Find him by searching his stage name, 2KTrilla. The first single off the album is called Same Block, which the talented 20-year-old wrote last year. He completed the filming of its music video clip well before the horrific murder of George Floyd in the USA ignited a global Black Lives Matter uproar. Same Block is a prophetic expression of something very similar. Though reluctant to focus on his own experiences of racism and harassment, the former Delroy High School student chooses to let his music and lyrics do the talking. “I write about everything that’s going on. Self-harm, love, breakups. It helps me get through because I don’t really talk to people, so I put it into song and write it down. Hopefully other people who are going through the same thing can relate, can just listen to it and get through it,” the rapper told Dubbo Photo News.
To create his songs, he sits at a small desk in his bedroom, working with a laptop, a mic, software and a need to perform. As a member of an Aboriginal dance group at Delroy, he was once offered a scholarship from Dubbo Ballet Studio when they collaborated on a project together and, for a while, he bucked the family tradition of playing football or planning to join the Air Force as three of his siblings have done, and spent many hours honing his dancing skills. His inner rap music kept tugging at him however, and for a time he performed locally as “Air” before switching to 2KTrilla when his uploads clashed repeatedly with a popular Swedish band also called Air. He was influenced to become 2KTrilla by rapper Rick Ross who first made up ‘trilla’ as a word. “He combined the words True and Real and made it Trilla, and I thought I’m going to put that in my name. One of my favourite rappers has 2K in the front of his name, so I went with 2KTrilla,” Mr Shaw said. Though his career is moving quickly in the right direction, Mr Shaw sings about his cultural roots and sometimes in Wiradjuri, and though he’s learnt that from an app, it does speak to cultural losses. One of his Wiradjuri verses says “I’m sick of how we’re living to-

As he grows into the role of a rap star, there’s a pretty good chance the boy from Bunglegumbie Road’s future is on a path for legends.

Warruwi Gambling Help for healthier communities WARRUWI Gambling Help’s vision is to decrease harm caused by gambling to individuals, families and communities by raising awareness about gambling related issues and local interventions for Aboriginal people. Warruwi Gambling Help collaborates with communities on their local gambling issues and shares information on how these can be addressed as well as advising on local gambling services, community engagement, consultation and client support. We encourage discussion between Aboriginal community members and service providers to talk about gambling issues and the impacts on mental, spiritual and physical health, relationships, finances and safety, plus acknowledging gambling as an important issue within the Aboriginal
1
community. Acknowledgement opens the door to strategies to tackle the problem. Warruwi Gambling Help offers workshops covering Aboriginal gambling awareness patterns, trends, cultural barriers, impacts and findings from research across Australia. “This is an opportunity for us all to come together as a community and have a yarn about gambling,” the organisation says. Warruwi Gambling Help program is an Aboriginal-owned service which has 100 per cent Aboriginal staff and is managed by the NSW Aboriginal Safe Gambling Service. If you or someone close to you is running into trouble because of gambling, they can help. Call their free helpline and have a yarn on 1800 752 948.
MOTORISTS are advised of continued changed traffic conditions at the intersection of the Mitchell and Newell highways in Dubbo for work to take place as part of the intersection upgrade. The slip lane from the Mitchell Highway onto the Newell Highway (adjacent to the former location of Hungry Jacks in West Dubbo) will remain closed until mid-2021, weather permitting. West-bound motorists turning left (south) off the L.H. Ford Bridge onto the Newell Highway will need to make the turn from the roundabout. The closure of the slip lane was put in place earlier this month and Transport for NSW monitored traffic impacts of the changes and will keep the slip lane closed to utilise the area during construction. Work is scheduled from Monday to Saturday, weekly, between 7am and 6pm with some work scheduled after hours to minimise impacts and improve the safety of workers and road users. Traffic barriers and reduced speed limits of 40km/h will be in place for the safety of workers and motorists while work is carried out. Transport for NSW suggests, “Please drive to the conditions and follow the directions of signs and traffic control.”

Dubbo Regional Theatre now open to the public
Naidoc Edition
THE Dubbo Regional Theatre and Convention Centre (DRTCC) reopened to the public on Wednesday, July 1, for the first time since March. As coronavirus restrictions have started easing in NSW, DRTCC staff are looking forward to welcoming patrons back. DRTCC manager Linda Christof says that staff have been busy working behind-the-scenes during the closure period, making sure things are COVID-safe when the public returns. “If you’re coming to visit us at the DRTCC, you’ll notice things are a little different, with floor markings at a safe distance, sanitiser stations, and a table for you to sign-in so that we can keep a record of who’s coming and going,” Ms Christof said. Many shows have been postponed or cancelled, but the first season show set to return to the stage is the cabaret extravaganza Club Soda, which can easily be presented with social distancing requirements.
Alison Salt’s mother purchased prints of Thomas Dick photos depicting Aboriginal life in the Hastings area more than a century ago. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS
By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY LOCAL Wiradjuri woman Alison Shaw has an extraordinary collection of photographs her mother bought in 1973. They are prints from the original Thomas Dick collection which the Australian Museum acquired in the 1940s.
Photographer Thomas Dick is renowned in Australia for what is regarded as a magnificent visual record of Aboriginal life in the Hastings district which he recorded in the late 1800s and early 1900s. In 1923, he said he set out to collect and write the history of the Hastings Aborigines, and
“get together, not only a fine collection of photos, but also a fine collection of implements, etc, and not the least was a remarkable amount of information”. “I secured all of the marks on the sacred trees, and their meaning, all of the rules of the ‘Waipara’ or man-making ceremony,” Mr Dick said.

JOBS
Dubbo the hub of decentralisation By JOHN RYAN “IT’S a fantastic day for our regional city of Dubbo – 100 brand new jobs through the Department of Regional NSW to be based here in Dubbo.” That was the headline announcement from Dubbo MP Dugald Saunders when he revealed a major job win for the city. Dubbo Photo News asked Mr Saunders if these were 100 completely new jobs, or will there be people coming from other departments to make up the hundred. Or, whether it was a rebranding exercise to rename a department and shuffle the deck chairs. “These will be 100 new jobs, people may come from other roles they have in Sydney to create that new job in Dubbo, but these will evolve over the next couple of years,” Mr Saunders said. “We’ve talked about decentralisation for some time and this sets a new benchmark. “These will be jobs that help continue to deliver for regional areas, both through infrastructure projects but also importantly through investment opportunities. “We already have staff in Dubbo doing exactly that, but this expansion, I guess, heightens and shows the commitment that we as the Nationals in government

have to regional NSW.” The state government said that the office for the newly created Department of Regional NSW is aimed to put regional communities at the forefront of government decision making. “People in regional NSW face unique challenges that vary from town to town which is why the NSW Government established the Department of Regional NSW, to put our communities front and centre,” Mr Saunders said.
“More than three quarters of the Department’s staff are already based in the regions and establishing a base in Dubbo is a further commitment to having people living in the areas they’re supporting, while providing jobs for our region. “We will have staff who understand the issues affecting regional cities like Dubbo, and who know the local challenges and benefits of smaller towns and regional life – they will be in a po-
sition to help deliver the support, infrastructure and programs that communities like ours need.” The Dubbo office will be one of four, with other branches to be set up in Queanbeyan, Armidale and Coffs Harbour. With a federal by-election for the electorate of Eden-Monaro scheduled for July 4, this announcement of 100 new state government jobs in Queanbeyan is a timely boost for the broader Coalition brand.
New lights for Dubbo Netballers at Nita McGrath Courts
NEW lights are shining bright at Nita McGrath Courts in Dubbo following the installation of eight new light poles and an upgrade to the existing lights, as part of Dubbo Regional Council’s capital works renewal program. Dubbo Netball Association president Karen Weekes said the lighting upgrade was very much welcomed by the Association. “Dubbo Netball Association commenced training under COVID-19 restrictions on Monday, June 22, enjoying the newly lit courts. The new lights provide a great benefit to our association and our local clubs,” said Ms Weekes. “The additional capacity they provide will allow more teams to train at night, especially during COVID-19 restrictions on public gatherings. They also offer us the more flexibility to run our competitions during summer and winter,” she said. Dubbo Regional Council engaged local contractors O’Brien Electrical Dubbo Pty Ltd for the supply and installation of the new sports lighting.

REDI.E employee ray of hope for Murrin Bridge community
Get to know our CEO, Tracey Shillingsworth
I joined REDI.E in November 2018 and was very excited to work back in Western NSW, a region where anything is possible. I have seen some incredible changes starting with our families, our new hires and catching up with our Elders. I have seen our youth progress to young adulthood, from starting their journey in life, to developing aspirations and hearing their success stories - and the challenges they have had to overcome. For me, it has been very inspirational to see the progress that has been made in our communities. And while I understand that everyone faces their own challenges, at REDI.E, we focus on spreading the message that you can do anything you set your mind to. How do I know this? Because I have moved through my career starting from a clerical administration role - to middle and senior management - to a CEO.

We work with traditional owners of the country, so our team members have the opportunity to broaden their understanding and gain unique knowledge from the oldest surviving culture in the world. We have many nations, languages and dialects, and there are so many wonderful communities for people to learn about their survival, history and identity. My aspirations for anyone who works with us is for them to take what they learn and educate their family, friends and others.

You will join a vibrant, energetic team of professionals who are committed to creating real and meaningful opportunities for people in our region. Let’s work together for a united community.
A REDI.E Employment Mentor has organised food and clothing donations for the Murrin Bridge community. After spending a couple of days doing outreach in the Murrin Bridge community, Che Dionysius realised they were struggling and needed some help. With limited local resources, she came up with a plan. She went to the supermarket and purchased a range of different things out of her own pocket and put together six food hampers with some essential ingredients. Che also spoke to her friends and family about the situation in Murrin Bridge. Some of them decided they would also like to help and donated clothes. Che travelled back to Murrin Bridge and distributed the donations. Upon receiving her hamper, one of the community members told Che she had spent her week worrying about how she was going to feed her family, until she got paid. Emotions were running high as the other donations were handed out, with some of the recipients crying, saying how much this meant to them. With one remaining hamper left, Che decided she would donate it to all the REDI.E participants IURP WKH ORFDO RIÂżFH &KH DOVR donated nine packets of vegetable seeds for the job seekers to grow in the community garden. Che looks forward to more trips to Murrin Bridge in the future, to continue this relationship and lend a helping hand.

Janaya awarded Elsa Dixon Aboriginal Traineeship Naidoc Edition
IN BRIEF
Queensland makes history with first female Indigenous mayor HISTORY was made in Cherbourg, Queensland recently when the community elected its first female mayor, Ms Elvie Sandow. “I was raised by my two grandmothers and they were strong women,” Mayor Sandow said. “So, I dedicate this to them, my late grandmothers. I am strong because of them.” Mayor Sandow brings to the job much experience in Cherbourg Aboriginal Shire Council procedures having worked for the council from 1993 to 2014. When she was elected as a shire councillor in 2000, she resigned from her council job and took up a position in the Gundoo Early Childhood Centre where she ended up as chief executive officer. Now that she’s mayor, Mayor Sandow said she can’t continue at the centre. “Our main priority is to get employment back into our community for our local people.” “My passion is early childhood education because you’re laying the foundation for these children and you’ve got to understand children are our future. To make a difference in their lives, that’s where you got to start,” she said. “[Young people] need to understand education is important, getting out there, doing traineeships. But it’s getting out there and wanting to do it and having support from family as well.”

The Elsa Dixon Aboriginal Employment Grant (EDAEG) supports Aboriginal people through the creation of training and employment opportunities, subsidising salaries and the development and support costs of Aboriginal employees in public service agencies and local government authorities. With encouragement from her Girls Academy mentors, Tracey
Piggott and Abbie Merritt, Jenaya applied for the Elsa Dixon Aboriginal Corporate Traineeship. “When Tracey told me about the traineeship opportunity, I was immediately interested and wanted to know more” the 16-year-old said. “With help from Tracey and Abbie, I re-arranged my subjects and prepared for the interview process which took place via Zoom earlier this term.” Jenaya was awarded a twoyear traineeship, which involves placement each Tuesday at the Department of Education Office in Dubbo.

She was also involved in the establishment of the Foundation for Aboriginal Affairs, the Aboriginal Legal Service, Aboriginal Black Theatre, Tent Embassy, Children’s Service, Housing Company and Detoxification Centre. Careers advisor Vicki Kenyon and the Dubbo College careers team were notified of the trainee-

Tracey Piggott expressed how proud Girls Academy were of Janaya’s achievements. “Girls Academy understands the importance of setting goals and working towards achieving them” Tracey said. “We’re proud to be able to offer our girls these opportunities. We never under-estimate the ability of our girls to achieve their dreams, they make us proud every day.”

It’s time to get involved It’s time to be heard “We encourage increased interest in local Aboriginal Land Council across communities. Self-sustaining and not reliant on funding from the Government. Stand on our feet, with new, economically viable, sustainable projects which Councils in my region can create for their communities.”
- NSW Aboriginal Land Council Central Region Councillor Grace Toomey
What is the New South Wales Aboriginal Land Council (NSWALC)? The New South Wales Aboriginal Land Council (NSWALC) is the State’s peak representative body in Aboriginal affairs. It aims to protect the interest and further the aspirations of its members and the broader Aboriginal community. It does this by working for the return of culturally significant and economically viable land, pursuing cultural, social and economic independence for its people and being politically pro-active and voicing the position of Aboriginal people on issues that affect them. The Constitution, Objects and Functions of the NSWALC are set out in Part 7 of the Aboriginal Land Rights Act (1983). These essentially give NSWALC the mandate to provide for the development of land rights for Aboriginal people in NSW, in conjunction with a network of Local Aboriginal Land Councils
through land acquisition either by land claim or purchase, establishment of commercial enterprises and community benefit schemes to create a sustainable economic base for Aboriginal communities, maintain and enhance Aboriginal culture, identity and heritage (including the management of traditional sites and cultural materials within NSW). NSWALC also acts as an advisor to, and negotiates with, Governments, and other stakeholders, to ensure the preservation of Aboriginal land rights. The State’s Land Council network operates as a two-tiered structure, comprising the peak body, NSWALC, which operates from Parramatta, five zone offices at Dubbo, Queanbeyan, Coffs Harbour, Broken Hill and Gosford, and 119 Local Aboriginal Land Councils, which are governed by elected Boards.

Will lower fuel prices ‘appen from an app?
Polly’s Petrol Pollywaffling NARROMINE
DUBBO
By JOHN RYAN
It’s enough to make you cry into your fuel tank – Dubbo motorists being smashed at the pump. PHOTOS: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS
By JOHN RYAN A WEEKEND drive to Narromine would have netted Dubbo drivers about a $15 saving if they put unleaded or diesel into their fuel tanks. Dubbo Photo News checked out service stations in Narromine and Dubbo and the results showed just how skewered the industry is when it comes to a lack of transparency and any sort of real competition, according to local fuel campaigner Wayne Gilbert. Mr Gilbert operates a Dubbo Bobcat business and has spent months holding Dubbo MP Dugald Saunders to account on the issue. He says politicians should come clean and admit they can do nothing to ensure parity fuel prices for regional areas.
On Saturday, you could buy E10 in Narromine for 95.9 cents, in Dubbo it was up to 120.9. Unleaded in Dubbo was as much as 121.9, in our smaller neighbour just 97.9, a whopping difference of 24 cents per litre. Back in the old pre-metric days that would translate into $1.09 extra for each and every gallon of unleaded you pumped into your vehicle. Diesel, a fuel which was traditionally cheaper than petrol, has lately been far higher, but while you could pick up that for 97.9 in Narromine, in Dubbo you could have been forced to pay up to 123.9 cents, a 26-cent differential. Dubbo Photo News sent Mr Saunders a series of questions on this vexed and long-running issue, where country people have
traditionally paid far more for petrol and diesel than their city counterparts. We asked Mr Saunders what actions he’d taken since we last talked on this issue to hold the fuel companies and retailers to account. “I have gone on the record previously to encourage fuel retailers to be reasonable when it comes to their prices at the bowser,” Mr Saunders told Dubbo Photo News. “Both myself and other members of parliament have encouraged people with concerns to write to the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) and outline those concerns.” To be blunt, Dubbo Photo News also asked, “Is there nothing you can actually do when it comes to this very long-running issue of
country people being continually ripped off?” Mr Saunders replied: “I think we all know there are times when the retail price of fuel products exceeds what seems like a reasonable level, and that is extremely frustrating, however the price of fuel is not something that is controlled, or is able to be controlled, by the NSW Government. “In saying that, I would encourage people to download the Fuelcheck app and search for the cheapest prices available in their regions, because a good way to send a message is by continually steering clear of those retailers whose prices are beyond reasonable. “Pollywaffle,” Mr Gilbert told Dubbo Photo News when he learnt about the replies to our questions. “Not acceptable,” he added.
MOTORISTS in our region are saving up to $500 a year on the cost of fuel by joining the one million people in NSW who have now downloaded the NSW Government’s free FuelCheck app. That’s the claim made by Dubbo MP Dugald Saunders who said the app provides motorists with realtime information on petrol prices for all fuel types and service stations across NSW. “We know that every dollar counts at the moment – which is why every driver should have the FuelCheck app downloaded to their smart phone,” Mr Saunders said. “The app stops the guessing game by giving motorists real-time prices of fuel in our local area so they can make sure you’re getting the best deal. “In recent times I have told people that if they aren’t happy with the price of petrol, they should contact the ACCC. The other way to put pressure on petrol companies to do the right thing and not price gouge is to shop for the best price and buy your fuel where the deal is best for you,” he said. Mr Saunders says that by taking a few seconds to check the app when you hop in the car on your way to fill up you stand to save money. Local fuel critic Wayne Gilbert believes the government should actually look at measures to bring pressure on fuel companies to be transparent and competitive rather than providing information on which servos are ripping people off less than others. He says it’s no good for people in Dubbo to know petrol or diesel might be 20 or 30 cents cheaper per litre in Bathurst, Tamworth or Sydney when it’s impractical to drive those distances to fill up. “People can download the app but that’s not going to have any impact on suppliers,” Mr Gilbert told Dubbo Photo News.

Will circus lessons get the ‘curriculum cut’?
By LYDIA PEDRANA CIRCUS lessons were singled out by the NSW Premier as an elective subject that should be scrapped when the State Government overhauls the school curriculum. But the NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA) couldn’t confirm whether or not Dubbo’s long-standing Circus West, which runs a two-year elective course for students in Year 9 and 10 at Delroy Campus, will be collateral damage in the reform. Dubbo Photo News pressed NESA for clarification on whether lessons in circus skills would remain as an elective subject, and whether Circus West, which is in its 29th year, would be affected. “The NSW Government is undertaking the first full curriculum reform in 30 years,” a NESA spokesperson told Dubbo Photo News. “This starts with a commitment to reduce the number of elective courses by 20 per cent by 2021. “This will allow schools to focus on depth rather than breadth when it comes to teaching and learning.” The revamp comes after a twoyear review by Professor Geoff

amounts into education and the results need to match this. We need to make a change if we want NSW to improve by global standards.” She also told the Daily Telegraph that “lessons in circus skills, puppetry and wearable art should not be done during school hours.” Local mother Shona Coleman is against the State Government’s
decision to remove creative subjects from school. “I think these subjects help kids broaden their minds and also help with calmer, fun experiences,” she said. “School is so important to children of all ages but if we just put English, Maths etcetera in the teaching methods, then that is when children become bored and lack concentration. “I know if my boys didn’t have PDHPE and Sports, then I would struggle a lot to get them to achieve at school.” Tasha O’Donnell took circus classes herself when she went to school and would love her children to do the same. “I know when I took them in high school it was amazing; they helped build confidence,” she said. “I do place a high value on numeracy and literacy but at the end of the day some children struggle, and those extra subjects give them a place to relax and succeed in something that isn’t all about tests and scores. “Taking them away is a bad idea through and through.” The changes are expected to be fully implemented by 2024.
Vale John Summers, former principal By JOHN RYAN THERE’S been an outpouring of emotion from friends, colleagues and the broader Dubbo public education community following the sad news former Dubbo South High School principal John Summers passed away on June 16. Mr Summers was principal at the school for the decade 1989 to 1999. He’d emigrated from England and began work in NSW’s education department in the early 1960s as an English and history teacher. Former Dubbo High School principal Jim Carey said Mr Summers was a great friend and colleague. “John was a great intellect, a true mate. I am absolutely shat-
tered,” Mr Carey said, emphasising the positive effect his good mate had on education throughout the Dubbo community. “John was an innovative principal who championed the introduction of vertical integration for students, a strong advocate for students to work at their ability level and encouraged them to accelerate their learning. “I also recall during John’s term as principal, his team of staff led Dubbo South to their first victory in the 1991 University Shield, a prestigious statewide rugby league competition – this is a feather in his cap, and a level of achievement that was not repeated until 2011,” Mr Carey said. After his retirement Mr Summers remained active among the
community as a member of Rotary and a lecturer for the University of the Third Age. Robin Higgins worked with John Summers at Dubbo South High School and recalls the positive influence he radiated during his appointment. “John was a highly respected man, he held great command, was proud of his school and encouraged all to achieve,” she said. “He will long be remembered by the staff, students and wider school community.” Current Dubbo College South Campus principal Linda MacLeod said Mr Summers was fondly remembered in the school as a great principal and school leader. “Our thoughts go out to his family at this time,” she said.

46,000-yearold caves accepting submissions A PARLIAMENTARY inquiry into the destruction of 46,000-year-old caves at the Juukan Gorge in the Pilbara region of Western Australia is now accepting submissions. The inquiry will address the operation of the Aboriginal Heritage Act 1972 (WA) and approvals provided under the Act, as well as the consultation that Rio Tinto engaged in prior to the destruction of the caves with Indigenous peoples. It will also look into the sequence of events and decision-making process undertaken by Rio Tinto that led to the destruction, the loss or damage to the traditional owners – Puutu, Kunti Kurrama and Pinikura people – from the destruction of the site, the heritage and preservation work that has been conducted at the site, and the interaction of state indigenous heritage regulations with Commonwealth laws. The effectiveness and adequacy of state and federal laws in relation to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultural heritage in each of the Australian jurisdictions will be studied. Other issues the inquiry will look at include how Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultural heritage laws might be improved to guarantee the protection of culturally and historically significant sites, and opportunities to improve indigenous heritage protection through the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999. Standing Committee on Northern Australia chair Warren Entsch said that it was inconceivable that such a valuable heritage site could be destroyed in complete accordance with the law and without any means for Traditional Owners or their representatives to effectively intervene. The deadline for submissions is Friday, July 31.

Former Peak Hill Central School Peter Peckham promotes student designs art for new $1 coin cultural tours on the Today Show
PEAK Hill Central School students and staff have been celebrating the news that a design by former student, Wiradjuri artist Scott “Sauce” Towney, has been chosen to feature on a special one-dollar coin issued by the Australian Mint. His ‘Emu in the Sky’ artwork is part of the Star Dreaming series of coins issued by the Australian Mint. It shows a constellation taken from Aboriginal astronomy which
is the silhouette traced by the dark spaces in the Milky Way which resemble a giant emu. Indigenous Australians were the first astronomers and have been using the stars as navigation maps, calendars and to tell stories for tens of thousands of years. Just 5000 of the coins have been minted at $70 each and are not in general circulation. The coins are crafted from 99 per cent pure silver. PHOTO: AUSTRALIAN MINT

CAREER TRAINING
Top-scoring in on-the-job training By JOHN RYAN ONE Dubbo company is quietly offering opportunities to unskilled workers who’ve struggled with drugs and alcohol, have missed educational and training windows or who have run up against the criminal justice system. Complete Asset Management (CAM) provides service, labour hire and rail construction service across Australia, supplying to companies like ARTC, John Holland, the major corridor owners plus companies like Laing O’Rourke as far afield as South Australia, Queensland and Victoria as well as New South Wales. The company runs its own fleet, with light vehicles, plant and crane trucks as well as buses to move the teams around to, often, remote worksites “We manage projects and do it ourselves or we supply labour to the companies that are doing subcontracting – we’re the full package, we give them everything they want including having our own protection officers which are integral to the rail, they protect the worksites on the rail,” CAM’ director Alan Herbert told Dubbo Photo News. Mr Herbert worked as a 240volt electrician for the western area in the rail and says that experience taught him a lot about the industry including how tracks were constructed. What started out in 2008 as a labour hire company changed focus in 2014 when the industry changed from big companies having their own big crews. “In 2014 our direction changed, and we decided to go further into the rail construction and by doing that and building the company up, we’re now winning major jobs across NSW. We just won a major job for a grain loop at Coonamble, we’re also in some major construction sites in the Inland Rail project here plus we do a lot a of major projects down in the Hunter Valley,” Mr Herbert said. “At the moment and probably for the last two years we’ve had 16 fulltime staff and we run generally at 80 people per fortnight, that’s what we pay per fortnight, we’ve been up to 140 but our average is between 70 and 80. “We don’t look at per centages but we’re probably running 85 per cent Indigenous and Islander when it comes to employees.” That success story had its beginnings in 2010 when Mr Herbert was approached by Clive Hunter who worked for Laing O’Rourke. “He was really interested in creating Indigenous participation in the rail industry and he said what about putting together an entirely Indigenous re-sleepering team for a job between Dubbo and Stuart Town,” Mr Herbert said. “It was amazing, we gathered 30 odd blokes and we put them through a little bit of training, they had no idea about the rail,
CAM Director Alan Herbert is a firm believer that teaching people how to work safely is the key to building stronger communities. Above left, A CAM crew onsite keeping the nation’s railways working.

they were raw, everybody was just learning, and we put them out there and away they went. “The feedback after that three months, one of the supervisors told me it was the best crew he’d ever had, that they were happy to be out there working. It worked, whatever it was it worked.” Mr Herbert said that became a new mantra for the company and from that time on he said it hasn’t mattered who walks through the CAM gates, everyone is given the same chance. “We’ve had guys that have had drug problems and they’re clean now, we’ve had guys who’ve been in jail, many times, a lot of blokes, but they always get a chance – you walk through that door you’ve got an opportunity,” he said. “I’m brutally honest about what happens here, how the system works, how the company works, what we expect out of you and if
those guys can respond to that, Indigenous, non-Indigenous, whoever walks through the door, it puts it back onto them to say that if you can fulfill these rules, or stick to these rules for me and have this work ethic that I want, that the company wants you to have and the rest of the workers need you to have, then you’re welcome to stay here. “We’ve had guys who’ve walked in here, now I’ve got their brothers working for me, cousins, and they all come and all work here and they like it and I speak to them all the time and I’ve said everybody’s treated the same.” CAM models itself on the analogy of a big family which includes assistance in how to manage money and save for the future. Partnering with Regional Australia Bank, they have financial support advice for all the workers. “We’ve got blokes who’ve come
here three years ago and now they’ve got their own houses and that to me is massive, you know,” Mr Herbert said proudly. “To see their wives being happy, the girlfriends being happy, the kids being happy. “The blokes are proud of what they’ve done because they’ve worked very, very hard, they work hard here, it’s not easy, you work hard but you’ll get the results if you stick to it and I think that’s why a lot of the stuff we do, the word of mouth, they get treated fairly, everybody gets treated the same and we give a sh*t about the people who walk through our door.” Mr Herbert said it’s important for businesses to look past the short term for the most qualified employees on paper and try and build up a home-grown workforce – a bit like a footy team that has a nursery system and pathways for juniors as opposed to the team which just gets out the chequebook “You never know what the skills of a bloke are until you see how he works so in the rail industry you can have an opportunity very quickly,” he said. “Some people are a bit hesitant sometimes but when they step up they go, oh, that wasn’t too bad, they get a bit more money for the extra responsibility and it gives them a bit of respect about what they’re doing and they think this is pretty good and then they want
to do more and it’s pretty easy in the railway to go forward.” Now the company is looking for the rail giants to work with them to upskill the next, home-grown generation of rail workers, offering to help them subsidise three or four extra workers on every 20-person crew so they can learn on the job while not being part of the actual contract. “On the job training is the best thing you can possibly get, you can have all the skills you like but being out on the rail and learning where everything fits together, how it all works, the safety aspects of the work,” Mr Herbert said, pointing out that the best way to help people is to create the opportunities and structure so they can pull their boots on every morning and go to work in a protective and nurturing environment. “We give them all the tools, we teach them everything they need to know, we give them the back-up support and the boys in the crew will help them out,” he said. “Don’t eat McDonalds every night mate, there’s a barbeque here, we cook, thrown in a bit of money, we cook veges every night, so we make sure you’re right to go the next day. “At the end of the fortnight they get a really good decent rate of pay and think if I keep doing that’s the difference, that respect they win for themselves and that respect and standing and that flows through the community.”

Teamwork makes things work By JOHN RYAN BRETT Lake has worked on and off for Complete Asset Management (CAM) in Dubbo for about five or six years and says he’s thrilled at the way the company will give everyone a chance to have a go. “I’d been basically labouring all my life but I ran into CAM Director Alan “Herb” Herbert, down the street there one day and he just asked me how I was going, we’d known each other for about 15 years and he’s always said the door’s open here if I was looking for an opportunity,” Mr Lake told Dubbo Photo News. “In this company here at the moment there’s a big percentage of Aboriginal workers so he’s willing to give people an opportunity and it’s then basically up to them.” Mr Lake says it’s incredibly important that people can walk in the front door without skills for the job and find a company that’s willing to look towards the long term upskilling of a local labour force and nurture people who may not have had opportunities of career advancement in their lives. “Oh that’s the good thing about it, they come in here and they help people who don’t have much education and the blokes in the field, they’re just as handy too, they’ll
guide you through and help people learn the difference between right and wrong,” he said. “It doesn’t matter with the education, they’re willing to help and they do a pretty good job there – if you’re willing to have a go, I recommend that you come and see these guys, they’ll bring you up to speed with the training and give you the opportunity to make something of yourself. Working while he’s being interviewed, putting new handles on dozens of tools as part of regular maintenance, Mr Lake said he’s seen many people walk through the door with little in the way of formal education, and weighed down with a history of struggling to obtain decent worthwhile employment. He said they’ve had their lives completely turned around in multiple positive ways. “That’s the good thing about it, Herb doesn’t look for your HSC or your previous history or track record and stuff like, he’s willing to give you a go if you’re willing to dig in and have a go,” he said. “Everything they teach you here, it’s all by the books, everything’s done correctly and you can just come in green and they’ll show you everything they can here at the shed and when you get out
there on the job site the blokes are willing to help and they’ll just kind of feed you through the system and make sure you’re right. A major part of the success, he said, was how hard yakka in an outdoor work in a crew, working with people who become your mates, makes the days seem far shorter and much more fun. “You meet a lot of characters and also the amount of travelling that you do, it’s a good way to see around NSW, the pay’s good and the blokes, you make friends from the job sites and you all get along, have a good laugh and get the job done, there’s no dramas. He likens the CAM culture to Footy team where people may feel tired or sore, but they’ll get out of bed at 4:30am and go to work ork because otherwise they’ll bee letting their team mates down. “You can’t let your mates down, if you do see a bloke lagging a little bit, we all chip in there and help each other out,” Edition Mr Lake said. “I’ve lagged myself there and I’ve had a couple of blokes help, that’s part of the he crew I ‘spose and that’s what at Brett Lake says many people just need an opportunity to drastically change makes it worthwhile and makes their lives for the better.

The secret is simple By JOHN RYAN
DUBBO couple Phil and CheD rie Thompson started their company Native Secrets to share comp culture and traditional knowledge. The couple began with a licencing agreement with another company until they managed to get their own up and running. Cherie told Dubbo Photo News they decided to take the plunge as they realised, they had a unique product that people really liked. “Native Secrets is now possibly Australia’s only skin care company that is a part of the total supply chain,” she said. “From managing biodiversity offsets, manufacturing essential oils to producing high quality natural products that help heal the skin naturally.” Native Secrets products are infused with the cypress essential oils and the range includes shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lotion and hand sanitiser. Essential oils include white cypress leaf and wood oil as well as Buddha wood and lemon scented gum. The products can be found Australia-wide and can be sourced locally at Dubbo’s Taronga Western Plains Zoo, Dubbo Information Centre, Old Dubbo Gaol, Majo’s Health Food store and Wellington Caves as well as via the website www.nativesecrets.com.au. There’s free shipping for locals by using the code: DUBBO2830 As a result of COVID19, Native Secrets has made significant changes to its core business.

“We have pivoted to COVID-19 emergencies supplies such as hand sanitiser, gloves and masks,” Mrs Thompson said. “During this quiet period, we have been able to work on the busines and collaborate with a new manufacturer to focus on a new range, rebrand and find new wholesalers. We have also developed an export strategy; watch this space.” She says the vision behind the company is simple, to be Australia’s leading supplier of native essential oil and to establish Native Secrets as a leading global supplier of Australian natural ingredients and products that improve human health and wellbeing as treading gently in the environment. A big part of the Native Secrets’ ethos is based around Indigenous employment and the creation of opportunities for people living in local communities? “The essential oil manufacturing model we created can be replicated in any community particularly in remote and rural areas,” Mrs Thompson said. “Generally speaking, where there is an opportunity to manage land, whether it is a biodiversity offset, abandoned mine sites or unused land, using essential oil manufacturing means people don’t need to leave their community and can potentially develop a sustainable busines locally which in turn helps the environment. “This model not only creates jobs but more importantly, creates safe places for cultural knowledge transfer between elders, youth and community.”

Bila Muuji is about enhancing and supporting member services in achieving health outcomes for Aboriginal people in communities. It represents the member services by assisting them wherever possible, whether that’s in clinical practice, funding opportunities, partnership development,
workforce enhancement, advocacy and support on a regional perspective. This will be especially apparent when the Career Pathways Project report is released in coming weeks. Bila Muuji is a major partner in this national workforce research project that was funded by the Lowitja Institute and included a collaborative effort between, Western Sydney University, the University of New South Wales and Aboriginal Medical Services Alliance Northern Territory. Once the findings of this project is made public, Bila Muuji will support our ACCHOs to begin implementing recommendations locally. Bila Muuji was gifted a Dental Bus from Kimberley Aboriginal Medical Service, which features a dental chair and accommodation for a team of six dental staff to provide services, student training and dental promotion opportunities across our large catchment area. Businesses and organisations interested in partnering with Bila Muuji to assist us in mobilising the dental bus, acquire a dentist(s) to activate our plans and vision for engagement of remote and very remote Aboriginal communities are invited to partner with us.

CRIMINALS in Wellington and Dubbo have been put on notice, with an additional 72 closed circuit television (CCTV) cameras installed in the Dubbo Local Government Area. The NSW Government contributed $250,000 towards the project, which had an overall cost in excess of $800,000, and saw 44 new units installed in
Wellington and 28 in Dubbo. “The safety of our communities is paramount, and we know that CCTV cameras are a huge deterrent when it comes to crime,” Mr Saunders said. “Not only that, but they also provide our police with additional material to use in the location and prosecution of people who commit crimes.
“Between Dubbo and Wellington there are now 167 cameras across 41 sites, and the upgrading of the CCTV network in Wellington also includes a new and improved backhaul radio link allowing access to the system from the Dubbo Police Station.” The camera project was completed by local contractor Simtec Security and Surveillance.

life, which entails helping the wider community have a greater understanding of Aboriginal people’s cultures, histories and knowledges,� Ms Riley told Dubbo Photo News. She joined the NAIDOC Committee in 2018 because National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Week “is important to celebrate our cultures nationally�. “The theme this year is: Always Was. Always will Be. The theme for 2020 has been developed to shine a focus on the length of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander occupation of Australia,� Ms Riley said.
“In our narratives Aboriginal people talk of continuous occupation of being here when time began, we are part of the Dreaming – past, present and future. Anthropologists and archaeologists have dated our sites to being hundreds of thousands years old, in fact recording some of these sites as being the oldest on this planet. “Additionally, the NAIDOC Theme seeks to get teachers, students and community to explore and learn about, and appreciate the wealth and breadth of Indigenous Nations, languages and knowledge of this continent. “Exploring and learning
about Indigenous understandings of the environment, plants, animals, greater astronomy and cosmology, waters, land use and protection, Indigenous sciences and maths. “We need to question ourselves and understand how does learning this knowledge expand current western teachings to have a greater understanding of the world around us as individuals, as a community of learners and activists in looking after our environments?� she said. Ms Riley encourages all Australians, especially students, to visit the NAIDOC website. “Teaching ideas on the site, which relate directly to supporting teachers in addressing the Australian Curriculum include Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Histories and Culture cross-curriculum priority; with provision of content that can be used across multiple learning areas and stages/grades from Foundational Studies to Year 12. The material in the NAIDOC site may also be relevant to VET and University students undertaking Indigenous Studies,� Mr Riley said. The NAIDOC website is: www.naidoc.org.au

Striking resemblance between fact and fiction Film reveals life in a remote Indigenous community
Naidoc Edition
By LYDIA PEDRANA FOR a fictitious, yet truthful reflection of what life is really like in an Aboriginal mission, watch Ivan Sen’s award-winning film, Toomelah. The film reveals the challenges faced by young Gamilaroi people in the NSW Toomelah community who have been robbed of their culture by government policy, yet remain disconnected from modern Australia. The gritty screenplay follows a 10-year-old boy, Daniel, who has been kicked out of school for trying to stab a classmate with a pencil. His father is an alcoholic, his mother is a drug addict and his aunty has only just returned to the mission after being a victim of the Stolen Generation; so, Daniel looks to the neighbourhood gang for guidance. Before long, Daniel is a trainee gangster; doing daily drug runs and keeping tabs on his boss’ rival, who has just been released from jail. Tensions come to a head and the two gang leaders clash over a turf war with Daniel caught in the middle. Set in Toomelah in North Western NSW and Queensland, where Mr Sen’s mother was also born and bred, all bar one of the cast are first-time actors from the local community. While it may have been released eight years ago, NITV screened the 106-minute drama over the weekend, and it caught the attention of former Dubbo local Andy McQuie. As a former Park Ranger Mr McQuie has worked with about 10 different Aboriginal language groups over the past three decades across the Northern Territory, South Australia and New South Wales. Having last taken a trip to Toomelah in 2018, Mr McQuie urged others, who may never get to visit a remote Indigenous community, to watch the film. “I wasn’t aware the film even existed and having worked a bit with the Toomelah mob over the past few

years, I know first-hand that it’s an accurate portrayal of life and struggle in Western NSW, and other mission towns around Australia,” he said. “I’m pretty sure (sadly) that nothing much has changed on that ‘mish’, since the film was made. “It’s a world many Australians just don’t ever get to see, and whilst it remains hidden away, those who don’t get to see it may find it hard to understand the idea of institutionalised racism, intergenerational stress and trauma, substance abuse, child prostitution and loss of culture and identity.” Along with initiatives such as NAIDOC week, Mr McQuie believes seeking and sharing stories and knowledge is key in achieving justice for the traditional owners of the land. “I think it’s important for people to see that and understand that there’s a long way to go to closing the gap,” he said. “We can only do that by having better education, which leads to more empathy and which leads to us as voters forcing political change so that there is more community driven action and more money, time and effort spent on closing the gaps between Aboriginal and non-Aborigi-
nal Australia. “It’s a major injustice that we are still doing to our traditional owners of the land, and things like NAIDOC week help that – but also just promoting NITV as a really important medium
for getting accurate information out to mainstream Australia and the rest of the world, in fact.” Toomelah is available to stream on SBS On Demand for the next three weeks.
IN BRIEF
Take travel warnings seriously warns Australian Medical Association
AUSTRALIAN Medical Association NSW president Dr Danielle McMullen is asking everyone to treat travel warnings issued for interstate journeys with the same gravity they’d accept advice about international travel. “State leaders are using similar language to that used by the Department of Foreign Affairs on international travel when there are safety issues overseas. “As such, people in NSW and Victoria should treat it with the same sort of seriousness, particularly while there is a significant increase in coronavirus cases in Melbourne. “As the experience in Melbourne has shown, COVID-19 is very hard to contain. “We all need to remain vigilant to stop its spread and travelling to and from hotspots is something that’s being recommended against. “We’ve worked very hard to get to this point and it will be wasting a good deal of sacrifice on the part of many if we lose control of coronavirus in more places. “This goes double for people thinking of travelling from hotspots to rural or regional areas. “If you get sick or make other people sick outside of major centres, there may not be the medical support you or they need locally. “So, please, if this sounds like your travel plans, reconsider your need to travel,” Dr McMullen said.

A mighty handover – Mitre 10 By JOHN RYAN FOR decades Brennan’s Mitre 10 has been a name synonymous with hardware in Dubbo but now the changing of the guard will see two new central west families take over the reins. The Petrie and Fergus families run nine regionally based hardware stores from their Mudgee base and director Phillip Petrie says they’re looking forward to the Dubbo expansion. “We’re very much about being mighty helpful in all those towns,” Mr Petrie told Dubbo Photo News in as he took a break from the massive stocktaking task earlier this week. He said Brennan’s has been an institution in Dubbo and the similar business ethos and culture makes it a perfect fit. “It is, we’ve known the Brennan family for a long time, and they run a great business and we’ll be very happy to carry on the tradition of great service they’ve provided to Dubbo.” He said a major challenge is combatting the quantity of scale from big box retailers by ensuring customers get personal and informed service. “For starters you need a lot of energy and you need great people and our business has built itself on building long term relationships with our staff, our customers and our suppliers,” Mr Petrie said. “When we build those relationships, it makes it a really strong business and people come back to us again and again because we

provide that mighty helpful component, but we also do it at a competitive price every single day.” He praised the Brennan’s model which placed a priority on staff that are friendly, who want to help and who know what they’re talking about? “Long term staff, they know their product, they know their customers and they genuinely want to help people solve their problems, it’s not just a number coming through the door, they’ll know your name, they’ll find a solution for you – they’ll be part of your solution for the problems you’re trying to solve,” he said. Heading up the Dubbo store will be 24-year-old Brad Petrie. “With the Fergus and Petrie families working together we’ve got numerous children – Mike and Annette (Fergus) have five
children and my wife and myself have four children and we’re fortunate that our son Brad is joining the business here. Brad’s been working in Port Macquarie for the last four years and he’s joining the business in Dubbo as our store manager.” Brad Petrie said he’s very excited and is relishing the challenge. Wise beyond his years, he told Dubbo Photo News you don’t fix what’s not broken. “The shop works here and it’s doing a good job so what we have to focus on is keeping that consistent and making sure that the customers that are coming here are happy and for anyone new coming through our door, that we’re able to service them and that we’re competitive in the market,” Mr Petrie said. And he admitted he’s pretty
Petries Mitre 10 timeline Petries Mitre 10 came into existence in 1986 as a result of the sale of Lonergan’s enterprise to Malcolm and Carmel Petrie. It started with 10 employees, most of whom had joined Petries Mitre 10 from Lonergan’s and was located in Mortimer Street Mudgee. The business grew quickly in the first few years and employed a staff of 18 by 1989. Construction was started on the current premises in Church Street in 1992 and the building was opened in October 1992. Phil and Annette Petrie and Mike and Annette Fergus took the reins in 2009. Development and expansion of the Petries Group: z 1986 Mudgee z 2003 Bathurst z 2008 Orange z 2010 November – Gunnedah z 2011 February – Young z 2012 December – Taree z 2013 February – Port Macquarie z 2015 May – Coffs Harbour z 2017 July – Port Macquarie Distribution Centre z 2020 July – Dubbo Currently the company employs approximately 300 staff. The Company Directors are Phillip Petrie and Michael Fergus, and both are working directors.
much had hardware hardwired into his system from a very young age. “Growing up, from 12-years-old I’ve been putting together wheelbarrows in Mudgee and I’ve been in and out of each of the businesses whether they be in Orange or Port Macquarie, Mudgee. “It’s just I like helping people who come in with their Do It Yourself (DIY) projects.”
Western Women’s Legal Support offers free service in Dubbo
OFTEN issues can be complex for women escaping, or at risk of, domestic violence. Problems such as potential homelessness, debt and personal safety can be overwhelming for women in this situation. For women dealing with domestic violence, telling their story to just one service provider can be traumatic. Unfortunately, many women in this situation find themselves telling their story to multiple service providers as they try to find the assistance they need. Western Women’s Legal Sup-
port assists women to find the help they need. Their team includes caseworkers, solicitors and an Aboriginal support worker. The service works with women to navigate the system, addressing legal and non-legal issues. The team provides practical assistance and advice that can n help stop problems from esca-lating even further. Western Women’s Legal Support is based in Dubbo Edition and is a free service assisting women throughout the central al and far western region of NSW. W.

IN BRIEF
White Ribbon returns under new leadership and local strategy THE rate of domestic violence-related assaults in western NSW is 3.6 times the state average. Good news then, that social change and justice campaigner, Brad Chilcott, will lead White Ribbon Australia out of its recent financial troubles to drive domestic violence awareness and action as its new executive director. Prior to his appointment, Mr Chilcott was the Founder and National Director of Welcoming Australia and has been a public advocate for mental health, LGBTIQA+ rights, international aid and education. He sits on the Board of Reconciliation SA and the Advisory Board of the Community Refugee Sponsorship Initiative. Mr Chilcott was the founding Convenor of the Family and Domestic Violence Advocacy Network in South Australia. “Change is needed. The violence experienced by Australian women demands it. White Ribbon Australia must represent more than a pin and piece of ribbon, and as a nation, we must do more than talk about a national crisis,” he said.

No child under 16 should ride or be a passenger on adult sized quad bikes, police say.

NEWS OPINION AND ANALYSIS by JOHN RYAN
Alleged vandal charged ON the evening of June 16, several motor vehicles were broken into within the Baradine township and now police are pleased to be able to tell the community an alleged offender has since been located and charged. A number of items have been recovered and police are seeking out people who may have had items stolen from their vehicles. If you have any information or footage relating to this matter, please contact Coonabarabran Police on 6842 7299.
Roos on roads EVERY 90 minutes, on average, a driver in Australia collides with a kangaroo and Dubbo is the state’s number one hotspot when it comes to wildlife collisions. Here are some incredible statistics when it comes to cars colliding with animals. According to data compiled by insurance giants NRMA and AAMI, in 2019 there were 236 vehicle v wildlife collisions in and around Dubbo, 162 in Armidale and 136 in Mudgee. In 2018, Dubbo stood at 261, Goulburn was in second place with 176 and Mudgee was again third at 148. 2017 was a bit kinder to drivers and animals, with Dubbo seeing 197 such collisions, Mudgee 143 and Goulburn 123. 2016 was also down, Dubbo stood at 161 for the year, Goulburn 123 and Mudgee 98. What this means if you’re driving around Dubbo is to be careful on our roads. July and August are the danger months so with July having just started, thankfully – to begin putting the second half of a dreadful 2020 behind us – please exert more than normal care while behind the wheel, especially around dawn and dusk when ‘roos seem more anxious to hop out of scrub on roadside verges to cross the road. International travel is currently banned for all practical purposes so we may see many city-siders making the trek out west, it’ll be interesting to see how that goes.
New Wello CCTV rolls out GREAT to see 44 new CCTV cameras installed around Wellington’s CBD. That, coming on top of the recent drug busts in the town. Hopefully it’ll help keep some of the local crooks a bit more honest than normal. Three levels of government contributed to the project with Federal MP Andrew Gee saying he was pleased to see the project go ahead. “The Australian Government is always looking for ways to increase community safety and security. CCTV cameras are just one of the ways we can deter people from doing the wrong thing in our local community. It also helps us nab offenders when crimes are committed,” Mr Gee said. “I’d like to give a big shout-out to our police, who helped determine the best locations to place

the cameras to provide maximum benefit for our community,” Mr Gee said. The new and upgraded camera network now provides a key link between the Dubbo and Wellington Police, with the camera feed streaming live from Wellington streets to the Dubbo Police Station 24 hours a day, seven days a week. “I’ve been hearing from some Wellington residents that drug supply options have been re-established in the town. My fingers are crossed that police still have plenty of arrests to make in this ongoing operation,” Mr Gee said. But what we really need is a far greater presence of local cops in the town, on the beat and embedded in the community 24/7 – just like these new cameras.
Collins Avenue house up in flames FIRIES from Dubbo 280 station rushed to a Collins Avenue house just after 5.30am on Saturday, June 27, when reports came in that a house was well alight. They extinguished the blaze and ascertained no-one was inside at the time, but the house was extensively damaged. The cause of the fire is currently under investigation.
Alleged fish poachers charged AN illegal fisher has been apprehended during a weekend operation near Warren which was a joint effort between NSW Department of Primary Industries’ Fisheries officers and NSW Police Rural Crime Unit. Acting Director NSWDPI Fisher-
ies Compliance, Dr Andrew Moriarty said, said two men, a 49-yearold from Dubbo and a 58-year-old from Wongarbon, were apprehended on Saturday, June 27, on the Macquarie River, downstream of Warren following covert surveillance of the alleged offender. “The ongoing investigation focussed on the use of setlines, and illegal fish traps and officers observed the men using a number of illegal fish traps from their camp at the river,” Dr Moriarty said. “The men were seen to take nine Golden Perch and one Murray Cod, and were apprehended by NSW Fisheries officers with the assistance of NSW Police Rural Crime Investigator officers. “Seven fish traps, nine Golden perch, one Murray cod, one grapnel (grappling hook) as well as one of the offenders’ boat, motor and trailer were all seized during the operation. “The men are both facing proposed charges under the Fisheries Management Act 1994 for unlawfully using traps and possessing fish illegally taken. The man from Dubbo is also facing an extra charge of failing to prevent fisheries offences while master of the boat – the maximum penalty for each offence is $22,000 and/or six months imprisonment.” Dr Moriarty said the man is known to NSW DPI fisheries officers. “Blatant disregard for fisheries rules and regulations have serious consequences,” he said. “Fisheries rules and regulations are in place to protect and conserve fish stocks and fishing opportunities for current and future generations, and this type of illegal fishing detracts from all the hard work fisheries officers and the community do to ensure access to healthy fish stocks for the community of NSW.” To report illegal fishing you can call the Fishers Watch phone line on 1800 043 536 or report online via the FishSmart NSW app or at www.dpi. nsw.gov.au. Well done to all concerned – so much work is going into building up native habitat and fish stocks that this alleged poaching is the last thing our poor old rivers need.

Drugs allegedly found in speeding car ON the evidence alleged just below, it doesn’t look like it pays to speed. On June 26, highway police say they detected a Ford Falcon sedan allegedly travelling at 163km/h in a 100km/h zone on the Castlereagh Highway near Walgett. The officers stopped the car and spoke to the 31-year-old female driver, who was accompanied by a 51-year-old man.

Woman extradited from New Zealand over the 2016 alleged murder of Robert Dickie POLICE last week travelled to New Zealand to extradite a woman over the alleged murder of a man from the state’s Central West four years ago. Robert Dickie, aged 71, was last seen leaving his Elong Elong home on Tuesday, June 14, 2016. His family reported him missing two days later and inquiries were commenced by detectives from Orana Mid-Western Police District under Strike Force Gavin. During the course of the investigation, detectives determined that Mr Dickie had been murdered. Despite a number of forensic searches, his body has not yet been located. Following extensive inquiries, Strike Force Gavin officers applied for and were granted an arrest warrant for a woman in September 2017. After inquiries revealed the now 47-year-old woman was living in New Zealand, detectives requested assistance from New Zealand Police, who arrested her at a home unit in Auckland on Tuesday, April 7. The woman was taken to Auckland Police Station and processed on the NSW arrest warrant, before appearing at Auckland District Court, where her extradition to NSW was approved pending travel restrictions under COVID-19. Earlier this week, detectives from Orana Mid-Western Police District travelled to Auckland and, after being granted clearance for the extradition, escorted the woman on a flight, and arrived at Sydney International Airport about 10.45am on Thursday, June 25. Due to the current Public Health Orders for returning international travellers, the woman was detained at the airport while the arrest warrant was executed, and she was charged with murder. She was refused bail and appeared via audio visual link (AVL) to Central Local Court.

Learning tool at Senior Campus hand crafted by TAS teacher Dubbo College Senior Campus Aboriginal education officers Sue Sharp and Donna Williams are seen hard at work assembling an incredible, hand-made puzzle which outlines Aboriginal nations. With over 500 different nations around the continent, this puzzle is destined to become a great learning tool for the students. It shows a clear depiction of how signiďŹ cant and large the Wiradjuri nation (where Dubbo is now located) is compared to other nations on the eastern side of Australia. The puzzle was created by the school’s technological and applied studies (TAS) head teacher Nigel White who hand-crafted the puzzle. PHOTO: CONTRIBUTED

HAVING a legal problem can be confusing and overwhelming. Many people find themselves needing legal advice but can’t afford to see a solicitor. Often, people ignore their problem which only makes their situation worse. Some people take advice from friends or family which may not lead to the best course of action. Western NSW Community Legal Centre is a free service that helps people with a wide
variety of family and civil law matters. The Centre’s solicitors also travel throughout the western NSW region providing face to face service. The Centre can also help people attending court for a traffic matter. Having a solicitor to explain the court process and assist people, who don’t have legal representation, can help to get better outcomes for people in stressful situations.

Voice of reason Mike Nolan grew up in Dubbo but has strong ties with the Wellington area, which has drawn him back as the CEO of the Local Aboriginal Lands Council. He talked to NATALIE LEWIS about land management, preserving indigenous heritage and wiping out the town’s drug culture. MIKE Nolan comes across as being a gentle person, but when he talks about a topic that he’s passionate about, there’s fire in his belly. With family connections to Wellington, he’s pleased to be working in the community where his grandfather grew up. “I’m a Dubbo boy, my grandfather was born at Blacks Camp,” he explains. Accustomed to working in bigger places, Mr Nolan said it’s nice to feel like part of a community, particularly where he has that personal link. “It’s good to work at a local level. Most of my positions have been regional so it’s nice to focus on one community, it’s been a pleasant change.” With a background in natural and cultural resource management, Mr Nolan has worked in administrative roles, but also as a regional chief ranger in the Northern Territory. “I was overseeing management of three national parks and three nature reserves; it was quite a big operation.”
In the role, Mr Nolan was responsible for staff and for looking after the local landscape. He has a firm view of how communities should be caring for their surroundings, giving back to an environment that has given so much to them. “We should be taking more notice of cultural knowledge and about people managing the land,” he said. “For starters, we should not view it as a resource. We rely on it and it relies on us to be healthy.” Mr Nolan said people’s connection to land used to be a lot stronger than it is now and it has evolved over many thousands of years. “It was certainly a different landscape than what it is now. The land relied on us to be healthy and tradition allowed healing of the land.” Traditional practices such as cool burning need to return to assist natural processes like germination. “I’d like to see more traditional practice in that area,” he said. “It’s a practice that needs to be looked at more thoughtfully then adopted. We have things like cer-
Naidoc
tain native trees that will only reproduce under cool burning. “Another one of my beliefs is to respect cultural heritage so that Aboriginal culture is respected and valued by the wider community. It’s breaking down the barriers with those landowners and managers to identify and protect values. There’s a lot of myths around protecting and valuing that need to be addressed.” Representing the township of Wellington, Mr Nolan is able to have more influence and input into matters that affect indigenous culture and the broader population. “We are the peak body in relation to Aboriginal issues. We look at economic development and employment opportunities. We also manage 32 social housing homes and the former Nanima mission with 21 residents.” Asked how they have fared through COVID-19, and Mr Nolan is frank about what has had the greatest impact. “Aboriginal communities are resilient,” he said. “We had a high unemployment rate; I don’t think there’s been a lot of change. “Culturally, COVID-19 has been a big issue, on the social side, limiting numbers for funerals and birthdays. That has been hard.”

gThe Wellingbton Local Abands original Lands urrently Council is currently discussing a move to the former Wellington Visitor Information Centre. If they shift, the organisation will be housed in the new Wiradjuri Cultural Centre but that is still in negotiation with Dubbo Regional Council. “We are always keen to share our knowledge of heritage and history,” Mr Nolan said. “Any opportunity to get that is a good thing. The more information we can share the more barriers we can break down and build a relationship.” Wellington didn’t host a Black Lives Matter event, but Mr Nolan said many people attended the Dubbo gathering. “Deaths in custody is still an issue in the community, building a relationship with the police is important. The Royal Commission into deaths in custody didn’t achieve anything. I was born a ward of the state, we had the welfare coming around. We were taught to run from authority, including police. It was a very different relationship than the non-Indigenous people had and I was born in 1967.” Mr Nolan believes there are still a lot of bridges to be built in this regard.

“There’s new blood in the local police. But a lot of the police that work here don’t have a vested interest. We don’t see them at the footy or shopping or at the café. We are only seeing them when something bad happens in town. “We need a 24-hour police station funded and staffed. I’m feeling positive that the police are cleaning up the drug culture. Drugs are killing our youth and culture. We just need to keep on top of it.” Mr Nolan said that too many people are going to jail unnecessarily. “A high percentage of jail is over licensing and fines. People shouldn’t be going to jail over these things. We just need more options than locking people up. We need the option of a rehab centre.” Overall, Mr Nolan is really enjoying his role and immersing himself into the Wellington community. “I’m quite positive about where we are,” he said.
NURSE OF THE YEAR
An asset to the community By NATALIE LEWIS WITH health care workers at the frontline of services in the community, being named as the Nurse of the Year was a humbling moment for Wellington’s Tessa Ponder. “I was very humble and a bit overwhelmed to be nominated and awarded nurse of the year for Wellington Health Service,” she said. As a registered midwife and Wellington Nurse of the Year Tessa Ponder nurse, Ms Ponder has worked as a Child and Family Health Nurse with Wellington Health Service Manager with families in the WellingSally Loughnan.

describing it as an ‘enormous privilege’. “Supporting families with their babies from birth to five years is a great joy,” she said. “There is no template for children, each child and family have special unique talents and challenges as they navigate those early years.” Ms Ponder explained that working with local families is a wonderful learning experience. “When working in partnership with families I find I am often learning. Children are amazing, surprising and can show us so
much.” In addition to visiting families and children, Ms Ponder said the great joy of her work is the support she receives from others. “The friendships from colleagues from all disciplines at the Wellington Health Service; my child and family health colleagues throughout the Western Local Health District and all those in the community who collaborate to provide services for children and families of Wellington. “It is well known that it takes a community to raise a child. The community of Wellington has

many wonderful people and services that are passionate about Wellington and contribute so much.” In congratulating Ms Ponder, the Wellington Local Health district described her dedication to the role. “She is incredibly dedicated to the children and families, very passionate about her work and always continuing her professional development to benefit the community. Tessa is very kind and understands the community’s needs. She is an absolute asset to Wellington.”

we have consulted with our country universities, our stakeholders and our communities; and
•
we have seen the proposed legislation.
Only then will we make a call on how we will proceed. On another note, with regard to CSU, I am still very keen to see an independent, external audit carried out so everyone in the community knows where the vital country institution stands. I'm a big supporter of CSU and that's why I think an audit would help clear up a lot of concern about it's future.

By JOHN RYAN An artist’s rendition offers a glimpse into Wellington’s nearly completed Maranatha Gunyah. Combining childcare with aged care, the facility is set to become Australia’s first purpose-built centre offering intergenerational care and learning. The custom furnishings were designed by STEP4 in consultation with Maranatha Gunyah’s committee chairman Terry Frost and childcare director Dixie Robinson,
who had a strong vision of the resources and furniture that would work for the children and older residents. STEP4’s client relations and centre support Prue Gardner said a lot of centres have a unique approach, but this was a whole new level to include a learning space for adults and children to work together, negotiating play sessions and learning areas simultaneously. As a former early childhood educator, Mrs Gardner says the future of intergen-
erational learning is bright. “It’s really great for children to have that connection with older people, to take in that knowledge they have. There's something so special about the history they bring to our children’s lives. “A lot of time and research has gone into it, so I think it’s a really special place,” Mrs Gardener said. STEP4 is an Australian supplier of resources, equipment and furniture to the childcare, early learning and school sectors.

How a bronze statue brought reconciliation for two men By LYDIA PEDRANA THEY call themselves the “odd couple,” but Riverbank Frank Doolan and Dr Paul Roe both yearned for the same goal. Reconciliation. The men didn’t get off to a great start when they first met in Bourke back in 1980 after Dr Roe, an historian from the city moved to the bush to set up Cornerstone Community, a Christian mission, alongside Laurie McIntosh. Although he grew up with Christianity as a part of his life, Mr Doolan described himself as an “angry Aborigine” at the time Dr Roe came to town. “I remember the first meeting with Paul at the North Bourke pub and I was into him and letting him know why I thought he didn’t need it (a Christian community) and Paul, to his credit, he listened, it must have been a pretty wild introduction to the outback, but he was a gracious man and they did what they did and continued anyway and we had this relationship where we kind of faced off or kept each other at arm’s length,” Mr Doolan told Dubbo Photo News. “Everything happen in Bourke, Paul and Laurie set up Cornerstone, he raised his family there and in spite of Riverbank Frank’s prediction, Cornerstone not only proved it worked well, it has been a great success. Several years later, a friend convinced Mr Doolan to revisit his faith and go back to church – the same church as Dr Roe. Still maintaining their distance “like a couple of cattle dogs circling each other,” it wasn’t until Dr Roe asked Mr Doolan for his thoughts on an iconic Indigenous figure did their relationship shift. “One day he sidled up and says, ‘what do you think about William Ferguson?,’” Mr Doolan recalled. “William Ferguson was my childhood hero and I got cold shivers to be precise, I thought he was having me on, then I realised he actually knew about William Ferguson’s story and was interested in it, as was I.” William Ferguson, the son of Scottish shearer, William Ferguson Senior and Indigenous woman, Emily Ford, led a civil rights movement during the 1930s and 40s. Appalled by the unfair treatment of Aboriginals, Mr Ferguson went on a mission for justice, fighting on both a state and federal level for Indigenous people to be accepted citizens and receive better education and care. He teamed up with another Indigenous leader, William Cooper, to declare Australia Day a Day of Mourning in 1938 and together, Mr Cooper and Mr Ferguson created Aboriginal Sunday, the predecessor of NAIDOC Week. Sadly, both men passed before Aboriginal people were served

justice with a resounding ‘Yes’ vote in the 1967 referendum. Mr Ferguson’s son, John, used to attend Dr Roe’s church in Bourke and before he died, he asked the historian to share his father’s story. On a separate, unrelated occasion, John had a similar conversation with Mr Doolan. “John Ferguson took me to his father’s grave in Dubbo and pointed down and said, ‘Dad’s buried there, I still remember the afternoon,’ and I got cold shivers again,” Mr Doolan said. “I told him, ‘one day Uncle John, everybody in Australia will know who your father is,’ and I cried as I might to get that known, and nobody really wanted to know about it. “It was ironic and interesting, and I thank God for his sense of humour, because it wasn’t until Paul Roe that the story gained traction.” The pair worked for almost two years to have a bronze statue of William Ferguson erected in the centre of Dubbo’s main street in 2019 – a monument many locals have probably walked past without noticing nor understanding. And that’s when Mr Doolan and Dr Roe’s acquaintanceship began to evolve into a friendship. “I’m not the easiest person to get on with and I’m the first to admit that, and I was trying as I might to find fault in the situation or why we shouldn’t be working together again,” Mr Doolan said.
“Paul was gracious and gave more than he needed too, and we worked for about 18 months on that thing (the statue) and over that whole time, we developed a greater understanding of who each other was, of Indigenous needs as opposed to broader Australian needs and just a healthier respect for each other.” Dr Roe also asked Mr Doolan for forgiveness. “There were things in Bourke, I developed attitudes for various reasons, things that the kids did to us, stole my car, or trashed it, and you can get pretty pissed off with it all and you try to do something kind and you just get a back-hander or whatever, you feel very discouraged after trying and trying and trying to do things and getting nothing back but cheek or being called a ‘white so-and-so,’ and so I knew that at moments I had probably had a racist, dismissive attitude too, so I had to apologise and I thought I’d apologise to Frank,” Dr Roe said. “I said to Frank, ‘I admit that
` History cannot hurt us, really it can’t, we can learn from it, if we have the courage, but it can’t hurt us, and we don’t need to live in denial. a – Frank Doolan
I have had wrong attitudes and there was no excuse for that, would you accept my apology?’ and he did, and we shook hands. “Now I’m trying to act in a practical way by doing things like get the statue up or tell the story or go with Frank to schools to actually write a new story, not to pause and stay in the sorry state, but move forward and say, ‘what can we do about it?’” Mr Doolan described that moment as both “poignant” and “a bit painful”. Today, the “odd couple” retell the story of William Ferguson and his legacy to school groups and make a habit of gripping one another’s hands each time they meet. “Even in this time of COVID and elbow shakes, things have changed a lot, a handshake, it’s pure and simple, it’s a gesture of peace, it stems from the earliest of times,” Mr Doolan said. “When we do that (shake hands) especially when we go into schools and do it in front of young Australians, we find that it frees a lot of them up in that it seems, or appears, to have a profound effect on them and that to me tells me that even though we live in modern times, we are so much more enlightened, so much better informed and all the rest of it, even the simple act of a black man and a white man clasping hands can still make a catch in the kid’s throats.” The memorial statue of William Ferguson, made by local art-
ist Brett Garling, now stands tall near the rotunda in Macquarie Street, honouring his work in Aboriginal rights activism. In light of the vandalism and destruction of statues around the world off the back of the Black Lives Matter movement, Mr Doolan echoes Mr Ferguson’s urge to move forward. “My people would hate it if anybody were to vandalise that iconic figure and the same principle applies with Churchill and Captain Cook,” he said. “History cannot hurt us, really it can’t, we can learn from it, if we have the courage, but it can’t hurt us, and we don’t need to live in denial. “Really, what we need to do is learn how to live in this country and live together.” And for Mr Doolan, the same goes for NAIDOC week. “I think NAIDOC is an important thing, it just is a week-long of festivities that highlight an Indigenous perspective and we should do these things comfortable in the idea that we are a multicultural nation,” he said. “I’m really grateful that it is occurring but in reality too we represent 2.6 per cent of the total population and Australia is a multicultural nation, so with that in mind I’m happy that we are celebrating NAIDOC, I ask everyone to come and celebrate with us and enjoy it, but I say to you, that the bottom line is this, simply, I am you are, we are Australian.”

Drugs hurting indigenous culture
says it was either that or go back to jail. “It was a three-month program so I thought I would give it a go. “I was 29 and it was the first time I had put drugs down since I was 10. I felt like a Bunsen burner was burning my whole body. It was the worst two weeks of my life. “There were men there who said it was going to get better. I saw them living a good life. We would sit around the fireplace and tell stories.” The experience not only brought him closer to his heritage, it saved his life. “After six weeks, I was coming back into contact with my culture and had a fire in my belly to look up what our people went through.” After being kicked out of school halfway through Year 8, Mr Amatto went back to study at the age of 38 and did a Certificate IV in Community Services. He’s been clean and sober for 10 years. “My mob saw a different man. I even won an award because of the work I do.” He was named TAFE Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Student of the Year and now spends his time helping others in the same predicament. “Telling my story, I want to show how important culture is for an indigenous man to heal.
“A lot of drug and drink is because you don’t know any different. That’s the reason that I do what I do. If you haven’t lived the life, it’s hard to see what’s happening. “We’ve got to start talking about it, it saddens and it hurts me. I see my mob in the struggle. They are left there on their own and drugs are part of the problem. What is there for people struggling with alcohol and drug addiction? Mr Amatto said Wellington has been flooded with ice, heroin and cocaine from Sydney. “Ice is the number one drug flooding our community. It’s a sad reality because I know the feeling it’s a very lonely, dark feeling.” His message now is that communities like Wellington need rehabilitation centres instead of jails. “We need more cultural rehabs. A lot of rehabs at the moment won’t take people with a criminal record. There’s no beds. If you commit a crime, there’s a bed straight away but if you want help, you have to wait for three months. With the cost to build one jail, we could have 40 rehabs.” Mr Amatto says more counselling services for struggling indigenous people goes a long way but there is still more work to be done. “By the time I was 22 or 23 I wanted to stop but there wasn’t enough help, I could speak to a counsellor but there was a lot of stuff to it. “I look back and I wish there was a lot more support. Today, there are indigenous support workers and drug and alcohol workers. “I was a kid that wouldn’t listen. I couldn’t focus. I saw DV in my home and in the community. There are still a lot of kids in that lifestyle today.”

That’s where I started in the Commonwealth Public Service. Then I got a staff sponsorship to do a degree in Agriculture which I did. Then after that I worked with Primary Industries setting up projects within Aboriginal communities all over Australia plus Torres Strait and Tasmania. What about the world today, doesn’t make sense? With the Black Lives Matter (movement), I think it demonstrates that all people have got to come together to close the gap for good. It’s not only in America, these things happen all over the world with Indigenous people from whichever country. I think we’ve got to get back to knowing culture, learning about culture, how Aboriginal people lived and how they were treated in the early years. It was rough in the early years, we had to be off the streets by 6pm and there was a lot of open racism back then. I think it is still around but it’s not as visible as it used to be. When I first started school, we lived 7km away and we had to walk every morning when a 20 seated bus would go past with half a dozen non-indigenous kids on it. So, we walked rain, hail or shine to get to school. After the 1967 referendum things haven’t really changed. It created a
lot of social issues when Aboriginal men and families were put off the farms because virtually all they were working for prior to 1967 was meat, sugar, tea and flour. When the farmers had to pay them an equal rate of pay as the non-indigenous workers, a lot of them were put off the farms and properties and ended up on missions. Once they couldn’t provide for their families it created a lot of alcoholism and a lot of conflict with the law. I think a lot of that still carries over from generation to generation. I think it’s time the world healed, and I think learning each other’s culture is a big step in that direction. If you were prime minister for a day, what would you do or change? The main objective I would have would be to get Aboriginal people recognised in the constitution. I think we’re the only Indigenous people of a country that are not in the constitution or treaties. So, I think that is what I’d do. What is your proudest accomplishment? My proudest accomplishment was getting a degree in Agriculture. After I got the degree, doors opened, and
By NATALIE LEWIS WELLINGTON’S drug culture has had a profound impact on the tight-knit town, particularly its indigenous community. Former resident and proud Wiradjuri man Jeff Amatto remembers a childhood where life was relatively carefree. “It was great growing up on Nanima,” he said. “I miss it a lot. It was a massive part of my life. We did a lot of hunting, rabbiting, fishing, and I was fortunate to go to preschool with my cousins,” he said. Going to primary school in town was when life began taking a wrong turn for Mr Amatto, who sadly started taking drugs from a young age. “I became disconnected from culture,” he said. Amatto.

WORDS OF WISDOM Peter Peckham How did you start your cultural tours? I had 18 years in National Parks with the Office of Environment and Heritage. For five years I was manager at Cultural Heritage and prior to that I worked a lot in the Northern Territory, I gained a lot of cultural knowledge there. When I was 15, I went droving and sheering so I was always meeting with older Aboriginal men and they passed knowledge on to me. I worked in the Public Service in Canberra and then came back to Dubbo 21 years ago. I was offered a redundancy five or six years ago, so I took it and I bought a bus and organised my First Lesson Cultural Tours. I know most of the sites from the Queensland border to Victoria. I mainly do around Dubbo, but I do a tour around Coonabarabran, it’s a threeday tour. We visit Pilliga Pottery; we stay overnight there. Then we go to Sculptures in the Scrub, Sandstone Caves and other significant sites in the Warrumbungles. Then we overnight in Pilliga Pottery again and the next day we go to the Pilliga Hot Bore Baths and people have a swim there in the hot water and then we make our way back to Dubbo. I’m currently working with Phil Thompson in Native Secrets; they
take the bookings and we always have bookings available through the Dubbo Information Centre. The possum is very important to my family. Traditionally, once a baby was born, they would add possum skins together and it eventually ended up as a full-size blanket. It’s waterproof and prior to European arrival you could sleep anywhere with it and it kept you warm. As part of my tours, I found a website in New Zealand that produces cloaks, jumpers and coats made from possum skin, so I decided to buy one of those. I use it on my tours as an educational tool. How important is it for people to learn about Aboriginal culture? I think it’s very important that all people learn about Aboriginal culture. We are closing the gap, but I think the best way to do it would be to come on a cultural heritage tour, not just with me but there’s other Aboriginal tour operators along the East Coast of NSW. As far as I know I’m the only registered inland Aboriginal operator this side of the Blue Mountains. I invite all nationalities to come and learn a bit about Aboriginal culture. What did you get up to when you were growing up? I was brought up in Pilliga and our pastime was riding horses on weekends and after school. I went droving at the age of 15 for
` I started realising there wasn’t a lot of cultural stuff happening and our culture was sliding out the door. a

Mr Amatto says that locking people up only makes the problem worse. Jails feed the issue. “Jail is not working for us. What’s in place now is not working so let’s try something else. Let’s try to dig deeper to get a solution. “If you lock up a dog, it goes mental. “The drug culture in jails would make a glass eye cry. “It’s actually much worse than it seems. There are men who come to jail with a traffic fine and end up an addict. It doesn’t help the drug culture – untreated drug and alcohol addiction makes it worse.” Mr Amatto believes the government has a lack of knowledge of what actually happens in correctional facilities. “They haven’t got any idea what happens in the system and the trauma that leads up to the crime. They have never lived the experience.” From a cultural perspective, Mr Amatto wants to help others who may be suffering as he did. “This problem is not going away and we need to support their needs at a crucial time,” he said. “Rehab is not a magic wand but it’s a lot better than what the jail gives. My words are starting to get out there, it’s having a big ripple effect. Rehabs are kicking goals; people are starting to listen. There’s still a long way to go. “It’s not just affecting one person, it’s the family, kids, mum, dad, cousins. It’s the broader community. That’s why I do what I do.” Read more of his story on Facebook: Jeff Amatto "More Cultural Rehabs Less Jails".
I went to conferences in Canada and America. I’ve also travelled all over Australia with my work. I am also proud of working with and for Aboriginal people on their own land in the Northern Territory. I’m happy with myself and the life I’ve had. This is my favourite place, the Wiradjuri country.

ISSUE
Continuing to create during coronavirus By LYDIA PEDRANA THIRTY-SOMETHING, an empty calendar, and living back in her childhood bedroom on the outskirts of Dubbo. While it’s not exactly where talented artist and performer Bethany Simons imagined she would be, when COVID-19 pressed pause on the performing arts industry, she decided to make the move home from Melbourne, where she has been for the last 12 years, and wait out the global pandemic with family in the bush. “It wasn’t in my plan, but things happen for a reason
` We’re seeing some creative solutions... but countless independent practitioners remain unsure of whether there will be a platform for us to make and present new work in future. a

and I trust the bigger plan,� she told Dubbo Photo News. “Regular family time is beautiful; it feels like a life reset. “The Melbourne I know and love is not operating at the moment, so I’ve started to re-imagine what I can offer while I’m here.� In March, before the virus restrictions took hold, Ms Simons had quit her steady part-time job as Program Director of an arts advocacy organisation to pursue a career as a fulltime artist. “Just before COVID hit, I was rehearsing a show that was one week away from opening at Sydney Recital Hall and Melbourne Recital Centre, both of which are

large concert venues,� she explained. “As the first gathering restriction was announced, the venues closed, and our show was called off. “Putting something like that together takes months, so it was disappointing to lose it all a week out from performance.� One by one, the rest of Ms Simons’ planned gigs toppled as the entire “already vulnerable� industry fell victim to the insidious coronavirus. “Theatres are dark. Festivals are frozen. Venues and companies are folding. The unemployment rate is overwhelming,� Ms Simons said. “We’re seeing some creative solutions and the recently announced arts relief package is a step towards supporting the industry, but countless independent practitioners remain unsure of whether there will be a platform for us to make and present new work in future.� But like a true creative, Ms Simons won’t letting a pandemic stop her from sharing her imaginative, innovative, inspired work. While back in town and restricted from seeing her beloved nephews, she created a kids’ YouTube series called Simon Says as a way to stay in touch with them. Geared at children, but appealing to adults, each five-minute episode of Simons Says centres on imaginative play using household objects – like wooden spoons, milk bottles and egg cartons – and features an original song. “It made me feel productive and playful again. I love spreading the joy,� Ms Simons said. “It was filmed at home on an iPhone (thanks, mum), and much of it was improvised. “The fast, creative process was fun, so I may end
up making more but whatever happens I’m glad to have something concrete to show for my time in lockdown.� Now six episodes deep, her nephews believe she should pitch the series to ABC Kids (and this scribe absolutely seconds that motion). Along with the series, Ms Simons has also been guest drama teaching at local schools, coaching storytelling, assisting video projects, teaching singing online, and was recently interviewed by ABC TV for a COVID-19 time capsule project called New Normal. She has also been filming golden oldie sing-alongs for local nursing homes and songs for online church services along with her sister, Jessica, and Mum, Sharon, or ‘Shaz’ as her kids fondly refer to her. Ms Simons’ is also being mentored by a “one of a kind� local legend, soaking in his wisdom, knowledge and insights. “Having regular time with Uncle Riverbank Frank has been a major bonus of this unexpected season at home,� she said. “His stories, poetry and reflections on community, justice, life and faith are profound. “It’s hard to put into words what I’m learning; it’s an honour to listen.� For now, Ms Simons is finding it tough to look too far into the future, but she has vowed to continue making the most of this forced quiet spell. “While I’m here, I have plenty of creative ideas to sort through and will keep seeking opportunities to learn and engage with the community,� she said. “It feels good to be home.� To watch Simons Says and more of Bethany’s work, visit: www.bethanysimons.com

Gin Gin Weir needs to provide a great outcome for the river
Let’s build a bridge together Frank Doolan ❚ OPINION G’DAY people. This is a poem I wrote in the late 1990s when I was working with the kids at Mt Druitt. I hope it’s as relevant for you now as it was for them then. I call it ‘Bridges’.
‘Bridges’, by Uncle Riverbank Frank Doolan Now listen up you fellas Listen up and settle down ‘Cause there has to be some changes Right here in this town There’s too much aggression It desecrates the land Let’s build a bridge instead Let’s try to understand We’re all indigenous From somewhere on this earth We’re all connected to This tiny bit of dirt Culture can live side by side It only takes respect Let’s build that bridge together It’s not completed yet Away with prejudice and gang violence This is not the U.S.A. There’s culture in this country And an easier better way We can make it happen Providing there’s respect Let’s build that bridge together It’s not completed yet. In spite of what’s going down in other parts of the world, remember, as brother Archie Roach sings, “Let Love Rule”.
Support for Sir Roden Cutler Park development idea The Editor, Firstly, thanks to Mr Wally Flynn for his recent letter to the editor outlining the history of Sir Roden Cutler Park. The Sir Roden Cutler Park Entertainment & Events Development committee obtained through a local contractor a much more realistic costing of approximately $3.5 million to complete this project. Dubbo City Regional Council are not spending $17 million on this project, it was just a projected costing by an independent consultation at the request of Council. The proposed annual running costs of $10,000 could be shared among the multiple community groups and associations that use facility. The potential tourism dollars this facility could generate would easily recoup any expenditures for construction and management of this worthwhile community initiative. The architectural plans for this development

would be developed taking advantage of the beautiful aesthetics of the park and adding a valuable assess to Dubbo and our tourism profile. The proposed building built in sections: z 14 x 8 metre stage, suitable for large functions including outdoor opera; z P e r f o r m e r s /g u e s t s change rooms and toilets; z Kitchen facilities for event preparations for parties, gatherings, markets, etc; z Public toilet block would back onto the Tracker Riley Cycleway providing long overdue additional toilets for the park; z Proposed access to park via river; z Car and bus parking spaces located behind the Big 4 and has also be accounted for in these plans. Research of many Dubbo groups and businesses indicated the need for this development at Sir Roden Cutler Park in Dubbo – to date Dubbo lacks a large outdoor cultural entertainment venue able to attract large events with world class acts and entertainment. Garry Braithwaite, Dubbo
The Editor, Planning of the Gin Gin weir is moving ahead, and recently a referral document to do with the upcoming Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) was out for public comment. It was great to see that an alternative to the enormous gated weir option was proposed by WaterNSW – that the crumbly old weir be replaced where it is at the same height, and not be a ‘re-regulating’ structure. This would be a great outcome for the river, given any new structure would have to include a long overdue fishway. Replacing the current weir would mean that the water level upstream would stay where it is, and not rise by up to six meters. The huge old river red gums in the 30km upstream stretch of river from the weir would not be drowned, and 30km of vulnerable and threatened native fish habitat and spawning sites wouldn’t be destroyed. Vital, life-giving tributary inflows would remain free to flow, delivering the irreplaceable ecological services to the river that only natural inflows can. If the current weir was replaced at the same height, there would be no structure standing in the way of the vital small and low flows that reach the Macquarie Marshes in most years. Australia could show that we take our international responsibility to protect the resilience of the Ramsar-listed wetlands seriously. Replacing the current weir would be a relief for people too. The community of Warren would have fewer concerns about the possibility of the river being cut off next drought. Landholders along the creeks, in the Macquarie Marshes, in Carinda, and unregulated irrigators in the Lower Macquarie wouldn’t be facing an uncertain water future like they would be should the gated re-regulating weir currently proposed go ahead. Healthy Rivers Dubbo very much looks forward to seeing plans for the alternative replacement weir and fishway, should the NSW National Party decide that the proposed gated re-regulating weir is just too damaging to the Macquarie River. Peter Duggan, Healthy Rivers Dubbo Letter writer John Thornton provided this photo showing flora and fauna in the Macquarie Marshes area which depend on good river management.
Proposed Re-regulating Weir not the right solution The Editor, The new weir proposed at Gin Gin is being promoted as a way to improve efficiency for water deliveries in the Macquarie Valley. Construction details indicate that it will not be the typical weir we are used to seeing – it will be massive in size with an operational mechanical gate enabling water to flow over and/or under it, or even providing a means to blocking the river entirely. Improved efficiency is another way of saying less water in our rivers, which may seem like a good idea to improve water security in our valley, however the projected yield would represent a very small fraction of the Burrendong Dam storage capacity, therefore unlikely to make any noticeable difference. Furthermore, when the excessive cost to construct the weir are factored in, plus the ongoing burden to the public for running and maintenance costs, the use of public funds for this project must be questioned. Further downstream, the Lower Macquarie River is already managed so it is typically dry for most of the year, and when it does flow it contributes to the Barwon/Darling river system providing benefits to communities, farmers and the environment. As per licence agreements, if the flows are sufficiently high, it also gives irrigators in the lower unregulated parts of the river a chance to turn their pumps on. Therefore, what appears to be a harmless amount of water withheld upstream or taken out of the system by the proposed weir will have a significant negative impact to many downstream users and cause further harm to the environment. If this weir does proceed, it will again demonstrate what we are doing wrong with how we operate and manage our rivers, by taking the water from the many who benefit from its presence downstream and handing the water to a minority few upstream, while disregarding the environmental and socioeconomic harm throughout a system already in distress. The proposed new weir is unnecessary and unfair. John Thornton, Grazier, Macquarie Marshes

Rotary Club of Dubbo South standing ‘Side by Side’ with LeaderLife Contributed by BRETT MCCARTHY THE Rotary Club of Dubbo South continue to provide generous support to LeaderLife. After a successful fundraising event in September 2019, the Club has again rallied behind the young people of Dubbo and donated a Side by Side Buggy to LeaderLife’s Soil2Soul program. “We are extremely grateful to those people in our local community who consciously support LeaderLife and create opportunities for the amazing young people in our programs. All kids can thrive when surrounded by good mentors and the right environment,” LeaderLife Program coordinator Mel Singh said. Soil2Soul is a social enterprise developed by LeaderLife and a group of young men who identified the need for supported and meaningful pathways to training and employment. Since its commencement in early 2020, the young people in the Soil2Soul program have achieved some remarkable things. They have been working on a lime farm at Narromine

Many of us dream of flying, but it appears this local crow spotted by Dubbo Photo News reader Lindsay Foggon, is dreaming of a nice pair of long human walking legs. Can’t we all just be happy with what we’ve got? PHOTO: CONTRIBUTED BY LINDSAY FOGGON
“Rolo” is a giant Dogue de Bordeaux, or French Mastiff in more common terms, and at a junior four years old he loves going for weekend drives so he can stick his enormous head out the car window and feel the wind on his face. It’s a far cry and far more relaxed from the calling of his ancestors who were prized for their ability to pull heavy carts and guard castles of the European elite. PHOTO: JOHN RYAN

Naidoc Edition
ceremony and all present were invited to walk through the smoke. Students then broke into four groups and rotated through various sessions including Ms Jenadel Lane discussing NAIDOC posters and themes and why they are celebrated. Elizabeth Wright performed a short song in language about the RISE symbol while Mr and Mrs Trindall, along with Mrs Una Lake, discussed the theme of NAIDOC and what it means to Aboriginal people. The games sessions were staged on the oval by Will Robinson, Kimberley Forrester and Clontarf, traditional Indigenous games along with explanations of how they are linked to the survival of Aboriginal people.

Dubbo Photo News July 2-8, 2020
MEET THE BOSS Ann Maree Chandler Company: Indidg Connect I got involved in business... because I wanted to see more acceptance, equality and equity for Aboriginal people in Dubbo. To listen to people about what they wanted and to create plans and pathways and to see that become their reality. Our business is known for... high impact real conversations based around doable action. Our bestselling product is... our Garrariwibirra (Networking) Workshops. Through these we breakdown communication barriers, create understanding and acknowledgement. These are available across the board and are an invaluable tool for bringing the Aboriginal and the broader community together to achieve our common goal of success and independence. My role in the business is... working with Aboriginal people to create plans to better their circumstance, build wealth from the income they already receive
and access better opportunities. I also work with the broader community on a consultancy basis to meet their needs. According to my staff, working for me is... meaningful and dynamic, lots of fun and always different. I spend my down time... learning, training and thinking. In my opinion, the biggest issue facing small businesses is... self-belief and marketing. I’m most proud of... being able to stand up for what I believe in even though sometimes that has meant I am not liked or shamed. When you were a child, what did you want to do when you grew up? I remember when this question was asked at school the first time and it was profound to me. I just wanted to help people; I couldn’t think of anything else. The best piece of career advice I can offer is... to upskill yourself, always keep time set aside to relax and be kind. And if I wasn’t in my current role, I’d... be very sad.

CONGRATULATIONS TO DUBBO DIRT BIKE CLUB The Dubbo Dirt Bike Club will potentially attract thousands of visitors to Dubbo for major motocross competitions, thanks to $242,385 in funding from the Federal Government to upgrade its facilities to national championship standards. The project includes the installation of a new amenities block and spectator grandstands, plus an upgrade to the race track and start gates – these improvements will put Dubbo on the motocross centre-stage. This is something that our local riders and spectators can be truly proud of.

The idea of Go Figure is to arrive at the figures given at the bottom and right-hand columns of the diagram by following the arithmetic signs in the order they are given (that is, from left to right and top to bottom). Use only the numbers below the diagram to complete its blank squares and use each of the nine numbers only once.
Place a number in the empty boxes in such a way that each row across, each column down and each small 9-box square contains all of the numbers from one to nine.

By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL THE local club built on passion and “hundreds of thousands of volunteer hours and donations” has been given a massive funding boost. Federal member for Parkes Mark Coulton announced that $242,385 will be spent on the track under the Coalition Government’s Building Better Regions (BBRF). Upgrades to the track and surrounds will potentially attract thousands of visitors to Dubbo for state and national titles. It is money that will be well spent according to DDBC president Bec Eade. “The most exciting thing is we’ll be extending the number of gates from 30-40 so it sets us up for higher level and elite riders so we can cater for every level of competition,” the “biker’s mum” enthused. “We’ll also be installing sun protection shelters and extending our spectator hill so our visitors can get a bird’s eye view and there’ll be a new amenities block with toilets and showers and disability access.”
Bec says the club has over 200 members and attracts riders from as afield as Broken Hill, Wilcannia, Bourke, Cobar, Cowra, Bathurst, Orange, Gunnedah and right up the north coast as well as from the larger cities. “The club is extremely grateful for the assistance Mr Coulton has provided, not only financially but in the personal interest he has shown in our club. He and his staff have been very supportive and enthusiastic all the way through,” Bec added. The new facilities will have mutual benefit for the Morris Park Sports Car Club when the new facilities are completed. “We’ve consulted with the Speedway right from the start and there may well be some joint events in the future.” Bec Eade and Mark Coulton (back) with riders Nate Henderson, Tyler Eade, Ty Henderson, Ryan Eade and Justin Harrow. The first competitions will be on the 26th July and the Mac Daddy Cup will be run around September. This event is the Dirt Bike Club’s major fund-raiser, with over $11,000 donated to charities in honour of Mitch Mackay, a young rider who died from g cancer six yyears ago.

TENNIS
Six Love a thing of the past By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL WESTERN tennis players competed in the second round of Regional NSW Universal Tennis Rankings (UTR) over the weekend. Some of the best players from across the region gathered at the Paramount Complex in Wingewarra St, playing a series of matches where players of all ages get a rating of their ability against an international standard. The novel system assesses players of all ages with the aim of ensuring future tournaments will pit people of equal ability. Matt Edwards who is the Tennis NSW Club Development Manager, Western explained UTR. “If people play matches where they lose 6-0: 6-0 or win by similar margins nothing positive is obtained. In fact, quite the opposite, it can be a real turn off for everyone. “By putting this novel system in place we are sure more people will stay involved in the game for longer. There’s no fun in one-sided competitions but when players are more evenly matched they are much keener and their skills improve,” Matt added. Matt says Ash Barty’s rise to the top and the emergence of young male players like Alex De Minaur, John Millman and Alexei Popyrin has attracted new people to the sport. “I think the virus has also played a part too because families are looking for other activities. Our courts are full during the week with different competitions and there seem to be more people wanting to have a social hit.” Matt heads up the Paramount Coaching team. “Lyndall Murray and my son and I are here every day training players of all abilities. We cater for juniors, adults and Pee Wees. We offer advice on equipment and do individual as well as group sessions,” Matt smiled. Tennis at Paramount goes back to 1923 when players served on the original sand courts in Bultje St. In 2004 the Club took on 12 extra synthetic surfaces when they took over Dubbo City and the club now boasts an enviable complex. For more information on the UTR program or other programs contact Paramount Tennis Club on Facebook.

Dubbo Photo News July 2-8, 2020 ATHLETICS
Dubbo squad throwing with style By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL NOW that restrictions have been lifted a little, Dubbo throwers have been lifting their discus and shot putts a lot. The squad run by Dave Low and Sarah Ryan has been impressive after the break, literally throwing themselves into their work. They have high hopes that when competitions resume they will be sharing podiums with the state’s best. “They are all state and national level throwers (Discus, Shot Put and Javelin) who are working towards a clinic at the Australian Institute of Sport (AIS) in October, “ Sarah told Photo News. Dave Low attributes some amazing increases in distances being recorded to additional sessions the youngsters have put in with a highly qualified father and son team from Newcastle. “We train the squad locally with the support of Harradine Performance. Ken Harradine and son Benn, a three-time Olympian and Commonwealth Games gold medallist at Del-
hi in 2010, have been incredible. They saw our kids at the Country Championships here at the track earlier in the year and keep in touch on the phone and Zoom on a regular basis,” Dave said. The “top team”, as Dave described them, were in Dubbo recently to run a number of sessions. “They assessed each athlete, helped us prepare strength and conditioning programs and ran them through techniques to improve their skills. The improvement for each one has been considerable and they know that with continued effort they’ll extend their already impressive portfolios through, school, Country, State and National levels,” he added. Dubbo truly is a track and field nursery with athletes from Narromine, Gilgandra and Mudgee being mentored by local coaches. “Our most recent addition has been a young lad from Coonabarabran who won a silver medal in the CHS High Jump last year but is now trying his hand with the discus and shot,” Dave said.

HARNESS RACING
On the Trot – Coffee’s Photography honoured in Race 1 By GEOFF MANN BRILLIANT sunny conditions were perfect for the second winter meeting at the Dubbo Showground Harness Racing track on Sunday. The eight-race card kicked off with a tribute to the Coffee family who have dedicated their lives to fostering and promoting the sport. Parkes’ trainer Andrew Cassell piloted Lou Cee to an impressive win in the Coffee Photography Pace, with Sharon Coffee capturing the moment as the two-year-old bay filly cleared away to win by nearly seven metres.
The Coffee girls have been recording history through the lens since their late father Lester became involved in the formation of the Dubbo Club in the early 1960s. “These are the salt of the earth people who keep our sport alive,” long-serving committee member Graham Phipps quipped. “If we can’t get to the races we check out Coffee Photography on the web and all the race finishes and some profiles are there in brilliant colour,” Graham added. Western racing continues at Bathurst and Parkes this weekend.

Play a croquet a day
By GEOFF MANN IN 2001 the Gulargambone Rugby League club celebrated its 21st in style. Sadly, the Galahs won’t be laughing so much; the drought and Coronavirus have combined to suspend the big “4-O” until next year. The Western Plains competition will go ahead after Bourke, Walgett, Nyngan and Warren confirmed their willingness to play, although that decision came after defending premiers Coonamble joined Cobar, Brewarrina and Gular on the sidelines. The 19-year-old grey and white Galah will still be seen on multiple old guernseys with a belated “40th” to be stitched on next season.

By JOHN RYAN CHARLES Campbell has had an interesting life with a background of civil service across the middle east. He worked in military hospitals in that region as a civilian employee in defence and had a stint as the consul’s warden in Oman. He ran education services in the hospitals which included a creche for the children of the workers, a school for the children of expatriate workers of all nationalities, involvement in a college of nursing as well as out-

reach to refugees on the border during the Irani-Iraq war and the educational components for community medicine programs for about 100,000 Bedu. Now he’s putting some of those educational skills to good use on Dubbo’s croquet courts. “I’m just a croquet player who happens to be interested in mentoring other people on how to enjoy this game because it’s very good for general development,” Mr Campbell told Dubbo Photo News. “It’s great for you if you have problems with balance or other physical difficulties – this ac-
commodates very easily so it can be taken up by anybody in any physical condition, in any medical state at any age and you can play it for life.” He says people who may be struggling with movement can enjoy the game as a non-contact pastime which is easy on the joints but combines plenty of attributes which will assist in many areas of life. “I can have you playing a game in an hour – think of any other sport where you can get that sort of quick instruction, and then be on court having a decent game,” he said.

“Being able to tailor it to an individual so it’s not a case of here is the one way that you must play, here are ways that I can find out how your body works in order for you to play as well as you can and enjoy it. “Croquet is much more than just hitting a ball through a ridiculously narrow hoop: as well as skill there is strong element of strategy involved in each game – it is sometimes described as a combination of snooker and chess on grass.” He’s also promoting the sport as a work party with a difference.

which is the most attended activity in town each weekend, provide us with the perfect tool,” Darren summed up the situation. “Through WACHS and other government departments and with the assistance of our local councillors, we embarked on a strategy of engagement.”
WHEN the Wellington Cowboys ended a 25 year premiership drought to claim the Group 11 crown in September, the excitement was palpable. The win came just after the town on the banks of the Bell and Macquarie Rivers had clinched the Central West Rugby Union New Hogs on Bikes pour into Holland Cup and the town’s soccer Kennard Park team had seized a Dubbo title.

with Group XI and Country Rugby League to invite NRL stars to games. “We also encouraged official NRL Ambassadors like Souths flyer Nathan Merritt to join us at training and in the odd game and negotiated to get a couple of ex-NRL players to lead our young players, male and female. “The Cowboys also partnered with a number of health providers to hold awareness days that involved testing for a variety of illnesses, at our home games. We embarked on awareness projects around food and nutrition, anti-smoking, effects of alcohol and some other diseases that are more prevalent in Aboriginal families,” Darren explained. This pro-active approach has had many unexpected outcomes. “Some of our young ones are now looking to stay at school so they can start careers in fields they didn’t know existed. Others have decided to go back to study and training to help out and employment now has a much wider base than physical or domestic roles. “Our staff and others are pro-

fessionals with a range of tertiary qualifications so they are mentoring youngsters. They are real life role models. Not everyone of our kids is going to be an NRL star like Kotoni Staggs, Blake Ferguson, Brent Naden, Josh Addo-Carr or Tyrone Peachey but they now realise they have skills in other fields like medicine, law studies or education and bring those back to their hometown,” Darren added. One of the most inspiring stories has come from 2019 premiership-winning coach Justin Toomey-White. “Justo has been amazing with the way he has confronted a shock medical condition. Shortly after being named the Group XI Player of the Year for the third time, the big forward’s world came crashing down. He was diagnosed with bowel cancer and has undergone 18 months of surgery and treatment.” Justin didn’t let that stop him. “In fact he was on the front foot, speaking to others and driving a Bowel Cancer Awareness Day at one of our games. He told the blokes it was their responsibility to look af-
ter their health so they could be better dads and live longer lives,” Darren shared. In fact, the young man who had shown plenty of promise as a youngster and was snapped up by the NRL, returned to Wellington. Justin had a shot with the Bulldogs but when that didn’t work out as he hoped, he came home then went to the Central Coast for a couple of seasons before returning to play and coach. “A real measure of the man is that he turned a bad situation into an opportunity to lift others and he has been magnificent in his leadership through this challenging personal time. I am very thankful for Justo and some others in our community. Some have overcome health problems, others have addressed their anti-social behaviors and are now becoming the people they can be,” Darren said with admiration. Terry Fahey, Blake Ferguson, the Shaw brothers and so many others have forged their careers on the football field, now another generation is making their mark, using sport as the lever to lift others.
