They came here with all the hopes and expectations and their future has gone to this.” Greater Dandenong mayor Jim Memeti, who said his thoughts were with the bereaved family, said the council needed to review safety around the playground installed at the site in 2011. “It’s been like that (at the banks) for decades. It’s something that needs to be looked at,” he said. Councillor Matthew Kirwan said the council would take “strong notice”
of a coronial investigation report’s findings on park safety. “We would have to balance whether as a recreational area and natural site we want to fence it all off,” he said. “What is really clear is Dandenong being such an important hub of new migrant settlement ... we should look at how to educate new residents what the area is like.” Councillor John Kelly, who lives near the park, said the playground met “all the safety standards but that’s not
to say there’s not things we can do to improve it”. “I remember when the plans were made up, we were very mindful of safety because it was next to the creek. “Now in hindsight maybe we should do things to make it safer.” Inspector Bruce Kitchen, of Dandenong police, didn’t comment on the park’s safety except to say police would raise it in a report to the state coroner. He said the family “took their eye

Police would like to speak to anyone who was in Rotary Park on Lonsdale Street between noon and 4pm last Wednesday, specifically the west side of Dandenong Creek.

SAFETY around a playground near the banks of Dandenong Creek is set to come under scrutiny after the drowning of a three-year-old boy last week. Ishnael Baqaie, of Doveton, had been last seen by family members playing on a concrete ledge next to Rotary Park playground on the south side of Dandenong Park about 2.30pm last Wednesday. The playground’s creek-side flanks are fenced, however the bank of the concrete-lined creek is unguarded between the Lonsdale Street bridge and a nearby footbridge. Ishnael was reportedly spotted as he was swept away by fast-flowing stormwaters under Lonsdale Street bridge. His body was found the following afternoon after an extensive search several kilometres downstream near Greens Road. The Afghan-born family are believed to have settled in Sydney a few years ago, and moved to Doveton in the past month. The Bureau of Meteorology had issued a flood warning for the creek the day before the tragedy. Afghan Australian Association of Victoria president Khaliq Fazal said new arrivals were unaware of the creek’s fickleness - most of the time a benign stream, but after heavy rains a torrent. He called for “proper fences” all around the park’s creek section, and multi-lingual signs warning of the dangers. “Whether you’re a child or an adult, you shouldn’t be able to go in the creek,” he said. “It’s the responsibility of the council and (park authorities) to make sure these areas are secure and incidents are not going to happen again. “The whole community is mourn-

Pancakes too hot By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS A TERRIFIED neighbour’s pleas for Pancake Parlour’s Dandenong restaurant to close off its car park to after-hours drunks, drug dealers, hoons and arsonists have fallen flat for years. Maria Papasavvas’s bordering fence has been set alight three times by the car park’s after-midnight visitors, and troubles are escalating, she says. The most recent fire started from an incinerated stolen car late at night two months ago. The blaze spread into her backyard and destroyed her chicken coop, chickens and vegie patch before being extinguished by fire crews. Ms Papasavvas remembers waking to the fierce blaze and running naked into her backyard yelling for help. “Everything was on fire and the fire brigade was hosing it down. My vegie patch was black, my three chickens were dead. “What if no-one’s at home and the fire spreads to my garage and then my house?” Often she is kept up at night by sounds of drunkenness, shattered glass and squealing tyres in the car park’s darkest secluded corner, metres from her home. Her eldest son, who resides in the backyard bungalow, sometimes sleeps inside the main house out of fear. “My family is in danger,” Ms Papasavvas said. “It’s been going for years and getting worse.” Police often increase patrols after incidents but Ms Papasavvas says the most effective solution would be a gate to close the car park after hours. She has unsuccessfully asked Pancake Parlour for years. “Why is it so hard?” she said. Inspector Bruce Kitchen, of Greater Dandenong police, said he would recommend a gate and perimeter fence that sealed off the site. “That’s what I’d do if it was my

of the Pancake Parlour, said he had been advised by police several years ago not to gate off the car park after hours because it would hinder drivethrough police patrols. He said he’d be reluctant to fence off the property because it would

By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS A MAN is contesting charges of dealing ‘ice’ in a Pancake Parlour carpark in Dandenong while his family dined inside. Police prosecutor Leading Senior Constable Carly Dare told Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on Monday that Joe Raso was found sitting in his wife’s car in the car park with $3290 cash and a “bulge” in his pants about 9.25pm on 3 April. A “nervous” Raso allegedly
told police at the time he’d won the money at Crown Casino, and that they could search the car but not his pants. As police tried to cuff Raso to search him, he allegedly pushed police away, fled and threw a package from his pants into bushes. Police chased down Raso and subdued him with OC foam, LSC Dare said. She said police searched where the package was flung, and found
a medium-sized bag containing two zip-lock bags of “a crystal substance” - each weighing an ounce or 28 grams. Magistrate Jack Vandersteen said Raso, with five prior convictions for “the same thing” in the past two years, risked facing the “maximum penalty” for trafficking if he pleaded not guilty. He said the street value of ‘ice’ was between $500-$1000 a gram depending on purity - amounting to a package worth up to $56,000.
Raso’s lawyer told the court Raso’s wife and children were inside the restaurant at the time of the incident. She said her client disputed the substance in the bags and whether police had fingerprint evidence. Police told the court a forensic analysis of the substance was yet to be completed. The case was adjourned for a contest mention at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court tomorrow.

Foster runs into McCrae
trict Historical Society periodical ‘Gippsland Gate’, Dr McCrae eventually sold his run to Leslie Foster. Feeling he had been thoroughly fleeced by Dr McCrae on the land sale, Foster denounced Dr McCrae to all and sundry in the upper strata of Melbourne society. Not long before Christmas 1843, Dr McCrae was riding his horse up Queen Street when Foster waylaid him and “whipped him so severely that McCrae fell off his horse in a most undignified manner”. Newspapers of the day record the legal proceedings under Judge Jeffcott. Ironically, when naming streets after the early settlers of Dandenong the councillors of the time arranged for Foster Street to run into McCrae Street. He got into financial difficulties during the depression of the early 1840s, and in about 1845 moved to Sydney, where he practiced medicine. Farquhar McCrae died in 1850. A drawing in black pencil and watercolour by his sister-in-law, the artist and diarist Georgiana McCrae, hangs in the National Gallery of Australia in Canberra.
WHAT’S IN A NAME? WHAT’S IN A NAME DELVES INTO THE FASCINATING STORIES AND PERSONALITIES BEHIND SOME OF THE CITY’S BEST-KNOWN STREET NAMES. THIS WEEK THE JOURNAL LOOKS AT CENTRAL DANDENONG’S MCCRAE STREET, NAMED IN HONOUR OF ONE OF AUSTRALIA’S FIRST SURGEONS, FARQUHAR MCCRAE.
The portrait of Farquhar McCrae by his sister-in-law Georgiana.
An early picture of McCrae Street.
ALTHOUGH he never lived in Dandenong, Dr Farquhar McCrae lent his name to one of the city’s key thoroughfares. Born in Scotland in 1807 into a wellto-do family, Farquhar McCrae underwent medical training in Edinburgh and Paris, before being commissioned as an
assistant surgeon in the British Army. On 29 February 1839 Dr McCrae left Leith, Scotland, on the Midlothian with his mother, wife Jane and sisters Margaret and Thomasine. The party arrived in Port Phillip Bay on 15 June 1839.
As a surgeon and a squatter, he quickly established himself in Port Phillip society, soon becoming a magistrate and member of the Melbourne Cricket Club. In 1839 he leased what was known as the Eumemmering Run. He employed men to run the Dandenong station, never
settling there himself. He is also believed to have purchased land where the Dandenong Town Hall stands. Instead Dr McCrae built La Rose in 1842, a mansion later known as Wentworth House in Pascoe Vale. According to the Dandenong and Dis-
ratepayers in the James Street area. Cr Hill "This is prevalent all over town". Cr Miller said the West ward had its problem, too with wandering horses, most of which seemed to be along Alexander Ave. "One ratepayer rang the police to complain and they told him to shoot the horse as it should not be there," Cr Miller said. "He felt that he would then be open to a charge of using a firearm on a Sunday."
The Dandenong Redlegs appear certain to be booted out of senior football in Victoria following the decision to abolish the Victorian Football Association. The Dandenong club, which has struggled financially since winning the 1991 VFA premiership is unlikely to be allocated a licence to compete in a new competition to be run by the Victorian State Football League.
LOOKING BACK 100 years ago 10 September 1914 The Dandenong Park Mr Woodcock, the shire engineer, must be complimented on the splendid work of improvement recently effected to the Dandenong Park. The wretched neglect so long permitted, reducing it to an eyesore and a disgrace to the community, is now happily remedied and we feel sure the money thus expended will more than justify itself. For many years the park has been much patronised by large numbers of picnicing parties, whose visits have been
of undoubted profit to the town. With the improved state its popularity will assuredly increase and to further ensure this prospect, provision should be made before the summer season sets in for a water supply immediately in the park for the convenience of picnic parties. 50 years ago 16 September 1964 Horses on footpaths Dandenong Council last week decided to refer to the police a complaint about young people riding horses on footpaths and nature strips. The complaint was from 19

Cr calls for rate hike By CASEY NEILL
KEYSBOROUGH residents should pay extra rates to meet growing demand for new facilities. This was the suggestion from Councillor Sean O’Reilly at last week’s council meeting. He called for a greater focus on developing services within the growing suburb, particularly Keysborough’s south. “One view that council could take is that these people chose to live in Keysborough, and have paid less to rent or own in Keysborough due to its relatively little infrastructure,” he said. “This view could be that as these people have chosen to live in Keysborough, they will be content with
things as they are. “However, a more responsible and pro-active view should be taken by council.” Cr O’Reilly said the council should be delivering community infrastructure in a timely fashion, rather than waiting for deficiencies to arise and then retrospectively filling the gaps. “One option that could be progressed only after local consultation and agreement by the Keysborough community, is to charge a higher level of rates in Keysborough to fund the catch-up of its local infrastructure,” he said. He said the council had started planning for a Keysborough South community hub. “However we need to make sure
that funds are prioritised in future budgets,” he said. “If these infrastructure needs are not met, residents of Keysborough will be largely dependent on cars to access some services, which adds to traffic and parking congestion.” Cr O’Reilly said the council should acknowledge that new developments in Keysborough offset the need for greater development - with associated traffic and parking issues - in its existing activity centres of Dandenong, Springvale and Noble Park. He said residents had not yet formed a lobby group to push for new facilities, but the council needed to prepare. “They will come knocking at our door,” he said.
“Keysborough is the elephant in the room that will need to be addressed.” Cr Matthew Kirwan, who grew up in Keysborough, said residents in the new Keysborough estates already paid the Keysborough South Maintenance Levy, which he had opposed. “So it would be unfair to charge them a further rates levy to have the same level of community services and facilities that other people of Greater Dandenong already have,” he said. Community services director Mark Doubleday said the council acknowledged Keysborough needed additional facilities and “there are processes in place” to make it happen.

Two women badly burned in gas explosion Capri Blinds
A GAS-FUELLED explosion in Springvale South has left two women with severe burns and promoted a safety warning. Springvale Fire Brigade Senior Station Officer Josey Sensi said staff and volunteers from the Springvale and Dandenong CFA brigades responded to a fire at a home in Olympic Avenue on Sunday 7 September. She said the home’s elderly occupants were trying to change a barbecue LPG cylinder. “This resulted in gas leaking from the cylinder,” Ms Sensi said. “LPG is heavier than air and this meant the gas pooled and travelled three metres at ground level until it found an ignition source. “In this case, the pilot light of the

“Fire crews’ quick actions prevented the fire from spreading further to the house,” Ms Sensi said. She said crews also provided a high level of first aid for the two patients until Ambulance Victoria arrived, and liaised with Victoria Police, the Office of Gas Safety and other agencies to manage the scene. “The CFA recommends that when handling LPG, or any other pressurised gas, that it be done in a clear area, away from any possible ignition sources,” she said. “If you’re not confident of the use of a barbecue LPG cylinder, please get professional advice.” Ms Sensi said it was also a timely reminder to keep an extinguisher, fire blanket and a working smoke alarm for such emergencies.

A TYRE-fitter seemed to do some discredit to his profession when police caught him hooning with a shredded tyre among a crowd in an industrial estate. Such was the tyre’s parlous condition, police told Dandenong Magistrates’ Court last week the 24-year-old was driving on a wheel rim. Worse still, his passenger was sitting on the unroadworthy car’s window sill, holding on to the inside door handle. Magistrate Jack Vandersteen fined the driver $1500, disqualified him from driving for nine months and ordered him to attend a road trauma seminar.

GREATER Dandenong councillor Maria Sampey has dropped her code-of-conduct action against colleague Angela Long. Cr Sampey said she couldn’t “deal with” the Municipal Assoication-convened panel hearing the case, accusing one of the panelists of a conflict of interest. That panelist refused her pleas for him to stand down ahead of next month’s scheduled hearing.
DANDENONG’S civic square is a step closer to getting a name. The council has shortlisted 30 names from more than 160 suggestions submitted. More names will be culled from the list before it’s sent to the Office of Geographic Names about mid-November. The council will put the names the office approves out for the public consultation, and will announce the final selection early next year.
LIGHTS, sirens and evacuation instructions rang out across Dandenong Plaza last Tuesday - but nothing was amiss. The shopping centre and Dandenong Primary School participated in a two-hour simulation exercise involving police and CFA. “It was a training drill which centred around a scenario of a petrol tanker collision and fuel spill in Foster Street,” Senior Sergeant Brett Shenton said. It was designed to test police, plaza and school evacuation procedures.
A PETRIFIED pooch found himself in a tight spot during last week’s wild weather. Greater Dandenong SES controller Paul Daniel said the unit received a call to rescue a dog trapped between a fence and a shed in Noble Park. The pup’s owner managed to coax him out. Mr Daniel warned owners to ensure their pets were safe when thunder and lightning hit. The unit escaped the strong winds and heavy rain with only three call-outs, out of hundreds across the state. “That’s a story in itself. We were extremely fortunate,” Mr Daniel said.
GIGGLES met a public question time query at last Monday night’s City of Greater Dandenong council meeting. The resident asked if councils were illegal, given the referendum to include local government in the Constitution didn’t go ahead at last year’s federal election. “Councils are indeed legal. They’ve never been illegal,” CEO John Bennie responded. He explained that councils drew their power from State Government legislation and the referendum was designed to make it easier for the Federal Government to fund councils directly.
SEAGULLS are ruffling more than feathers at Dandenong Hub shopping centre. Councillor John Kelly said he’d been subjected to swooping, as had several customers. “It was scary actually,” he laughed. “I was standing against the fence so they couldn’t actually hit me.” The council is looking into the issue.

DANDENONG police weren’t fazed by a tirade of abuse thrown over the counter last Tuesday. “C’mon!” a man shouted, after waiting a few moments for an officer to assist him. “Oh get f*****, smart-a*** c****,” he yelled as he stormed out of the station. An officer came to the desk and spoke to the justice of the peace on duty. “Yeah, I’ve dealt with him many times,” he said calmly.

I DON’T ride a motorbike, but I’m also completely puzzled as to why riders are being singled out. Why not instead do random roadworthy checks for all vehicles, irrespective of type, much like random drug and alcohol testing is done now? Checks could be done for unlicensed drivers, illegal modifications, noise violations and anything else that’s quick to assess. It would give police the opportunity to pass on safety messages face-to-face, which would have a much bigger impact than through advertising. It may even tip people off to issues that they need to see a mechanic about. I think an ongoing program like this would lead to a substantial improvement in road safety at modest cost.

Senior Constable Peter Evans, Sergeant Max Walker and Constable Laura Wood. 127189
Special delivery By CASEY NEILL A SPRINGVALE police officer saved a baby girl’s life last Wednesday - just two weeks after starting at the station. Constable Laura Wood, 23, from Dandenong, was in the watch-house when a panicked man ran into the foyer about 9.30am on 10 September. He’d been driving his pregnant wife to hospital along Springvale Road but pulled into the police station carpark when the baby’s head appeared. Const Wood grabbed gloves, towels and blankets and told Sergeant Max Walker about the situation, while colleague Senior Constable Peter Evans called an ambulance. “When I got out here the baby had fully come out and she was holding the baby,” she said.
“I noticed the baby wasn’t crying so I told the father, who was leaning in, to pat the back or to rub the back to make sure it was crying. “After a few pats and rubbing the back it was starting to cry.” Const Wood graduated from the Victoria Police Academy just nine weeks ago, and had never witnessed a birth before. “I don’t really expect this, it’s not the first thing that came into my head when I came into work today,” she said. “But I joined this job to help people and it was great that today I was able to help a new baby come into the world.” Sgt Walker was nervous when he realised the baby wasn’t breathing. “We have basic first aid
training but we’re obviously not paramedics,” he said. “I’m a father of three so I’ve been down this path before. “I knew to stay calm, offer assurance to the family - which is what we did - make sure the airway was clear and apply basic first aid.” He said the parents were shocked. “It was such a quick event,” he said. Sen Const Evans said a toddler in the back seat of the family’s wagon “seemed to take it all in his stride”. “It was a great way to start the day. I think we’ve been smiling all day,” he said. The couple and their baby were taken to Dandenong Hospital.

Man’s road rage By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS A DRIVER screamed abuse at another driver, punched her car and then fled on foot during a road-rage incident in central Dandenong. Dale Scott Tremelling, 30, pleaded guilty in Dandenong Magistrates’ Court last Monday to yelling at a driver he was going to “f... you up”, spitting on her window and punching her car causing $514 damage near Dandenong Plaza on an August afternoon last year. Police told the court Tremelling then abandoned the car he was driving on the corner of Stud Road and Clow Street.
Defence lawyer Rainer Martini said the accused, a father of four, had not committed any other offences since 2008; his past criminality linked to a “loss of control”. Tremelling had “struggled with drugs for a significant time” but had “done well” on a two-year methadone program, Mr Martini said. “He feels he has been under control for a significant period of time. “If you take the incident on its face value (there was) a loss of control ... it was reprehensible behaviour, short in compass.” Magistrate Jack Vander-
steen placed Tremelling on a 12-month community correction order - including drug and behavioural treatment - and forced him to pay restitution costs to the other driver. He said Tremelling should take into account the other drivers’ feelings, that they may have a hospital appointment or have cancer. The accused would have got two months’ jail had he pleaded not guilty. “You can’t justify yelling, screaming and damaging other property,” Mr Vandersteen said. “Just drive away, keep your mouth shut and your hands in your pockets.”

Child porn on lost mobile By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS A MAN was busted for possessing child pornography after his lost mobile phone was handed in to his employer. Jonathon Charles Brattle pleaded guilty and was placed on an 18-month community corrections order and the sexual offenders register for eight years, at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on Monday. The court was told Brattle’s phone was handed in to the Mulgrave firm’s office after being found in a work vehicle on 26 September 2011. A child-pornographic photo was discovered on the phone by a work colleague and handed to police.
Police later found a film and seven photos - which they ranked in the least-serious category one. Police prosecutor Leading Senior Constable Carly Dare said Brattle told police the material been downloaded from a ‘pure naturism’ site. Magistrate Jack Vandersteen said Brattle would have faced a three-month jail term had he pleaded not guilty. He took into account Brattle’s lack of relevant prior or subsequent convictions, his cooperation with police and the delay in being charged. “Having this hang over your head would have caused a lot of stress and anxiety,” Mr Vandersteen said.
He noted the systematic exploitation and abuse of children that underlay such pornography, which was only for the exploiters’ benefit. The victims were “young, vulnerable and from vulnerable backgrounds”, he said. Their adolescent development was impeded due to the abuse, falling into drinking, drug taking and dropping out of school early. As part of his community corrections order, Brattle was ordered to perform 150 hours of unpaid work and will be subject to treatment and rehabilitation for alcohol abuse. His phone and its images were ordered for destruction.

Mystery of body in street By CASEY NEILL
Peter Danh was found dead in Prior Road, Noble Park, last Thursday night. “At this stage we can see that he has some head injuries, but we won’t know the full extent of his injuries until a post mortem has been conducted later today. “A witness that we have spoken to has told us that he heard some arguing and multiple voices around about the time this man was found, some car doors opening and closing. “We are appealing to anyone in the Noble Park area that has heard any cars driving away very fast, or any tyres screeching to contact Crime Stoppers or the local police station and pass on their details. “That would advance this investigation quite a bit.” They’re also appealing for anyone who saw Mr Danh that evening to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential crime report at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au.

SPRINGVALE man Peter Danh was found dead in a Noble Park street on Thursday night. Homicide Squad detectives are investigating the 36-year-old’s final movements, after a motorist on his way home made the discovery in Prior Road about 10.20pm on 11 September. Neighbour Emina Vehabovic said her husband heard a car in the street shortly before the body was discovered. “Everybody’s family here. We have lots of friends here. They’re nice people,” she said. She’s lived in the street since 1997 and said it was quiet, except for one home. “That house used to be lived in by two ladies, older ones,” she said. “That was a long time ago, maybe seven years. “After that, every two or three months it’s changed. “The police are there all the time.” Ms Vehabovic urged any neighbours with information to come forward to prevent similar violence in the future. Detective Sergeant Graham Ross said a motorist saw the body, stopped and called triple zero. “The initial uniform police who attended have assessed it as a possible hit-run, so the Major Collision Unit was called in,” he said on Friday. “They’ve been here this morning. They’ve assisted us with examining the scene and their assessment is it does not appear to be a hit-run at this stage. “The Homicide Squad has been contacted and we have attended with crime scene services who have examined the scene. “We are treating the death as a suspicious death at this point, until our investigations show otherwise.” Det Sgt Ross said it was possible Mr Danh was killed elsewhere and dumped in the street. “That’s one scenario that we have to look at,” he said.

By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS FOR such a jolly largerthan-life character, former Springvale mayor Peter McCall can tell several sad tales - but there’s a point to their poignancy. As guest speaker at Gateway Industries’ AGM last week, Mr McCall, 74, lamented that men’s increasingly common malaise was depression. Men make up the vast majority of Australia’s official suicide rate of more than 50 a week. And it starts because “blokes don’t communicate”, he said.
Mr McCall, an ambassador for beyondblue handpicked by his friend and the organisation’s chief executive Jeff Kennett, is an exception to that precept. Last week, he stunned his Gateway audience with a series of anecdotes that started with him as a police constable 35 years ago. One quiet Sunday night, he responded to a reported overdose in a rundown dwelling in Fitzroy. Inside he found a 15-year-old “figure of a female”, a heroin addict who had fled her sexually abusive home where her mother 1139004-PB24-14

had practically pimped her to strangers. She had since been living on the streets, injecting herself into her eyeballs. The girl asked Mr McCall not to let her die. He said he wouldn’t, and put his arm around her shoulder. She died in his arms “without the opportunity to take her rightful place in society”. “That’s why I’m here tonight,” he told last week’s audience. “She sits right here on my shoulder. She’s my driver to work in the community.”
Former Springvale mayor Peter McCall. The ebullient raconteur said he must be a “magnet for tears” - at a similar forum last week a 55-yearold farmer who was “not a sook” came to him with tears running down his face.
The farmer, who milked 780 cows twice a day, revealed his father and two younger brothers had all died by their own hand. “Blokes don’t communicate. Blokes are lonely. They keep to themselves,” Mr McCall said. He believes things aren’t helped by social media and smartphones. “Today we’re more connected but more isolated than we have ever been in our lives,” Mr McCall said. If you or anyone you know needs help, contact Lifeline on 13 11 14 or beyondblue on 1300 224 636.
Gateway to their success IT HAS been a big 12 months for Mark Hutton since he started working at Gateway Industries in Dandenong. Addressing the company’s AGM on Wednesday, he spoke eloqently of how he had blossomed from a shy, nervous recruit to now speaking in front of school assemblies, university students and the BHP boardroom. “I can share and be a spokesman for other people with a disability,” he said. “It’s helped me spread the word, to educate about other people’s needs.” He later told the Journal his message was acceptance, respect and support, honed with the help of his mentor and Special Olympics Australia manager Anne Monaghan. He wants to change minds. “We do things that everyone else does. We struggle and might do things a bit slower but we’re all normal people,” he said. Mr Hutton said there should be more media coverage of sports events involving competitors with intellectual disabilities. “If any media could get behind us that would be my dream.” He and work colleague Peter Christoforou are training in basketball and ten-pin bowling respectively ahead of Special Olympics national titles next month. They are hoping to have a shot at qualifying to represent Australia at world games in LA next year. Gateway has sponsored some of the pair’s $5600 participation costs - though more donations are needed. As part of their work at Gateway, they and 47 other staff mow lawns, tend parks, pick up litter and package items for councils and businesses. Established by Rotary in 1983, the enterprise states its charter is to help its workers “build a quality of life”. Mr Hutton told the meeting he’d felt shabbily treated at his former ‘hospitality’ workplace, working 11-hour days, six days a week and being “challenged physically and emotionally”. His new welcoming workplace had “restored his faith” in people. He quickly realised his bosses were caring, and the factory was filled with happiness and pride, he said.
Mark Hutton and Peter Christofrou. 127211 Picture: ROB CAREW He said he’d since learnt to understand people with other disabilities and respect other people’s needs. “I could be myself,” he later told the Journal. The AGM heard that the disability enterprise had returned to a modest profit in 2012-'13. It faces uncertainties through a current High Court case over disability awards and the upcoming and as yet undefined National Disability Insurance Scheme. However, Mr Hutton is proof Gateway’s social dividend is rich. To sponsor the athletes’ sporting campaign, call Alan Warwick at Gateway Industries on 9793 9988. -Cam Lucadou-Wells

Skills on show By CASEY NEILL A PRIVATE movie screening has given adults with disabilities a chance to showcase newfound skills. Dandenong-based disability support service Wallara launched its Wallara Ambassador Program last year. Wallara corporate partnerships and communications manager Karen Scholey said the aim was to build leadership and public speaking skills in 14 young people with different abilities. “We also wanted to involve these service users more deeply in the running of our service
and provide them with handson involvement and roles in our events,” she said. Participants attend training one day per week for a year, onsite at Wallara’s headquarters in Potter Street, Dandenong, and out in the community. It covers leadership development, public speaking skills, personal confidence building, advocacy, and brainstorming barriers. Ms Scholey said national facilities management company Access Group Solutions was inspired to give the ambassadors a real training experience, to showcase the skills they had developed through the program.
So on 23 July at Reading Cinemas at Dandenong Plaza, the ambassadors took to the stage and hosted a pre-release private movie viewing for a select group of Wallara families and friends. “The ambassadors did a fantastic job of welcoming the guests, introducing the movie and telling the audience a little more about the great things happening around their service,” Ms Scholey said. To find out how to support the ambassador program, call Ms Scholey on 9792 2985 or email kscholey@wallara.com. au.

Dandenong adult disability support service Wallara started Picture This to get students thinking about what social inclusion for people with disabilities really meant. The competition last year received 60 entries from five schools. Corporate partnerships and communications manager Karen Scholey said there were a large number of entries from schools across the south east again this year, including photographs, paintings and drawings. “The judges were really impressed with the high standard of the entries which made judging a difficult process,” she said. Ms Scholey said they even-

Natasha and Jithmi with author Alice Pung.
Print connection By CASEY NEILL AUTHORS connected with Lyndale Secondary students during Book Week, and inspired them with their personal stories. The theme for the annual literary celebration was ‘connect’ - about enjoying the experience of exploring a story and creating bonds. Teacher and librarian Andy McLuckie said the culturallydiverse Dandenong North school used Book Week to promote the value of reading and literacy through quizzes and competitions. Archie Fusillo has written more than 20 books for young people and on 20 August had students and teachers laughing in the aisles one minute and feeling misty-eyed the next with vivid tales of growing up Italian in Fitzroy in the ’70s. “Archie’s real life stories
struck a chord with our students, many of whom are living their own version of the immigrant experience today,” Mr McLuckie said. Phillip Gwynne won the Children’s Book Council Book of the Year award for Deadly, Unna? and on 22 August spoke to students about reading to discover and connect to the world beyond their doorstep. “Phillip also drew on his own experiences as an unremarkable student from an impoverished background to illustrate the fact that it is never too late to turn your life around and realise your potential,” Mr McLuckie said. Cambodian immigrant Alice Pung spoke about her childhood in Braybrook in the 1980s, named after Lewis Carroll’s creation because her father saw Australia as a true ‘wonderland’.
“Although resident attitudes towards Asian refugees and immigrants were sometimes less than welcoming during this period, Alice was able to rise above the racist barbs directed at her and her family,” Mr McLuckie said. She focused on her studies and completed a law degree at the University of Melbourne, wrote award-winning memoir Unpolished Gem, and edited Growing up Asian in Australia. The Lyndale library visiting speaker program will conclude for the year with former Richmond and Geelong AFL premiership player Brad Ottens on 17 September. “Brad Ottens will be our eighth guest speaker for this year and next year we hope our program will be even bigger and better,” Mr McLuckie said.

Oh, wot a tale A SCIENTIST, a besotted lab assistant and a manufactured ‘perfect’ woman are all in a day’s work for Carwatha College students. For five weeks, 20 students from years seven to 12 at the Noble Park North school have been participating in WotOpera to unlock their creative potential. They’ve written a 20-minute opera, including the music, and built and painted sets for a performance. Their story is about a scientist named Dr Felix who is working for a dictator. Dr Felix builds himself the perfect women with the help of his kind assistant, Aria, unaware that Aria has feelings for him. Is his perfect woman, Amythest, as perfect as he thinks? Will he ever discover Aria’s feelings for him? Audiences will have to check out the performance to find out. Carwatha will take to the stage along with students from Nossal High School, Albert Park High School and Mac.Robertson Girls’ High School. WotOpera will be on stage at the Drum Theatre, corner Lonsdale and Walker streets, Dandenong, from 7pm on Tuesday 16 September. Tickets are $5 for children and $10 per adult. Visit www. drumtheatre.com.au for more information or to book.

Man in road rage attack A ROAD rage attack in Springvale has left one man in hospital. Detective Sergeant Shane Pola said two cars were travelling in opposite directions on Ellen Street, Springvale, about 11.55pm on 5 September. Cars parked on either side of the street left room for only one car to pass through. An altercation about which car had right of way ensued and both drivers got out of their cars. Sgt Pola said a man of Asian appearance, aged about 20 years old, wearing a black hoodie and driving a green Holden assaulted the other man. The victim, a 28-year-old Springvale man, was taken to hospital.

EYES DOWN 8PM $500 JACKPOT MR. JACKPOT LINK JACKPOT John Gulzari says he'll bring a new voice to State Parliament. 126804
Picture: ROB CAREW
Vote one refugee By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS DECLARING himself as the first Afghan refugee to run for State Parliament, John Gulzari said it was about time Dandenong’s 5000-strong Hazara community had a voice. Human rights, especially for asylum seekers, is high on this Greens candidate’s agenda, having had firsthand experience of the Taliban’s murderous reign in Afghanistan and fleeing to Australia by boat. “It was a terrible journey,” Mr Gulzari said. “I won’t recommend anyone to take such a journey. And of course people won’t risk their life unless they are desperate due to war and persecution.” Before he became a citizen in 2007, he languished on a temporary protection visa, which excluded him from job-seeker or study allow-
ances, travelling overseas or family reunion rights. He nonetheless worked several jobs in Dandenong, paid for his own studies and set up a real estate business. Now he stands determined to help bring more “cultural representation” into parliament. “As an Afghan refugee, it is symbolic and important to change people’s attitudes about asylum seekers and create greater diversity within Victorian politics. “The Dandenong community is so welcoming and embracing of other cultures and that needs to be expanded across Victoria.” He said Hazaras were making a lasting, prominent contribution in business and cultural activities around Dandenong. “Which is why it is very important they have a voice alongside the
other voices,” he said. “I have spoken to the community through door-knocking, at community stalls, at many events. “They are dissatisfied, they want change, they want action, rather than the laziness of the old parties.” Mr Gulzari said low-cost, accessible public transport was particularly important for new arrivals. “Dandenong needs better public transport and in particular it needs better buses to help connect outlying areas to the train line. “Whether it is in Dandenong or Narre Warren, people say how much they need better bus services.” He supports the Greens’ policy to exempt refugees from university and TAFE fees. “The privatisation of TAFE from both the old parties has increased fees and put it further and further out of new refugees’ reach,” he said.
More funding was also needed for refugee and migrant advocacy and support agencies - “a huge part in helping refugees when they arrive”. Mr Gulzari as a self-described human rights activist has eschewed the “old parties” Labor and Liberal and their “ruthless, shameful and heart-breaking” asylum-seeker policies. Contrary to popular opinion, Mr Gulzari said the Australian Government didn’t have a “proper processing system” for asylum seekers to queue up “anywhere in the world”. He labelled offshore processing in Manus Island and PNG as a breach of human rights. He stood for the Greens because it was the “only party which is dedicated to achieving equity, fairness, and sustainable action and change within the region”.
Pearls of wisdom from some special ladies By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS WELL-EARNED pearls of wisdom from a Dandenong group of venerable women have been recorded in a booklet. ‘Dandenong Community Stories’ shares tales and insights from six members of the Wahines social group, which regularly meets at Dandenong Neighbourhood House for bingo, cards and outings. One of the subjects, Dorothy Parker, was born in Scotland during World War II. She remembered little about her early years on rations except that they were tough. Her advice to new migrants is: “Face your fears and be involved in the community. “There is no better way than just to smile at people and share a conversation.” Another Wahine, Ivanhoe-born Carol Hebbard, reflects that travelling makes you into a better person. Lila Connor says she’s learnt of “the power of smiles and kindness”, while Greek migrant and single mum Joanna Patsis said “love and hard work” gets you through life’s ups and downs. According to the booklet, Ms Parker overcame a two-year bedridden bout of rheumatic fever as a child. She watched her friends walking to school and making snowmen from her bedroom window.

“Thankfully, penicillin was discovered and I got better,” she told the students. At 29, she shipped to Australia with a husband, three children and 12 boxes of clothes. It was “by far the best decision I have taken”. She got stuck in as a volunteer at Scouts, Dandenong Hospital and as high school treasurer, which helped her to meet people and adapt. A visiting group of community development students from Spring-
vale Learning and Activities Centre felt a need to treasure the Wahines and their stories within a booklet. Trang Chau, one of the booklet proponents, said she and other students had originally visited to hone their communication skills with a range of cultures. “At first when we met them, it was quite hard. “Being Vietnamese, we can be shy to speak with other people because we get really nervous.”
126796
What they discovered among the Wahines was a common love for Greater Dandenong’s multicultural community. They also appreciated each other’s difficulties as migrants adapting to a new culture. “We had to be patient before we asked questions. “We first talked with them, had a joke and a bit of fun.”

Spruikers of the market THE entertaining spruiking competition was staged as part of Market Week, which was celebrated across Melbourne’s three pre-eminent markets, Dandenong, Queen Victoria and Prahran.

Market Week activities also included masterclasses on fish filleting, butchering and food styling in The Kitchen as well as cooking demonstrations on Brazilian and Korean cuisine. The week of festivities culminated on Sunday with a Full Moon Festival. Thousands of shoppers enjoyed the Chinese and Vietnamese cultural celebration, which featured dancing, feasting and delicious mooncakes. Children made lanterns and watched a puppet show.
The competition gathered together Dandenong Market spruikers for a combined full-song assault on judges’ and shoppers’ ears. 12732

We don’t mind if you change our plans. It’s called layout flexibility. Arden Homes is a different sort of company creating very different homes. Firstly, our homes are architect designed and inspired to bring a new sense of space, light and sweeping architectural proportions. You sense the difference immediately. Innovative sun courts, picture windows and full length windows and views that connect inside and out are hallmarks of our design. We insist on luxury standard inclusions such as porcelain tiles, Smeg appliances, Franke sinks, quality carpet, and stone benchtops throughout. Secondly, we limit the number of houses we build, and are up-front about the pricing of display home extras. “Arden let us swap rooms around so our new home is exactly as we want it.” – Sharon and Michael, Croydon And best of all, we encourage layout flexibility. It means you can work with us to switch and swap rooms and features to suit your lot size, orientation and family needs. Visit an Arden display to see and feel the difference. And ask us how we can tailor the design to make one of our stunning homes your unique dream home.

Students face the heat
Round about way to safety By CASEY NEILL
Students master the fire hose. Hampton Park Secondary College principal David Finnerty is on the Operation New Start Casey management committee and chairs the Dandenong management committee. “After eight weeks on the program, many of the kids come back changed people,” he said. “I tell them it can be two steps forward and one step back, but they come back to us re-engaged and believing in themselves again. “These are essentially good kids who, for all sorts of reasons, didn’t get the break they deserve. “This gives them that break and provides them with critical life skills that see them through some of life’s challenges that confront them as they re-establish themselves in the community. “They then come back to us more positive and ready to give school another go.”

SAFETY improvements are on the cards for a dangerous Dandenong intersection. Last month the Journal reported that Lamis Albyati frequently witnessed crashes at Scott and Thomas streets and was calling for lights - more than five years after the roundabout that previously controlled the intersection was removed. City of Greater Dandenong acting engineering services director Oliver Vido at Monday night’s council meeting said a traffic engineering consultant was investigating designs for a splitter island on Thomas Street. He said this would provide a refuge for pedestrians and provide a vehicle for additional traffic signage. Mr Vido said the council would also get a new estimate for installing traffic signals, and had asked police to increase their presence. He reitereated that an independent road safety audit found the intersection’s design complied with standards and was consistent with many others in the area. “The independent observations of accidents have highlighted that these have been caused by drivers failing to comply with the road rules, not directly associated with the intersection design,” he said.

VULNERABLE youths from Greater Dandenong got a little hot under the collar last month. They took part in a hot fire training day at the CFA’s Bangholme College on 21 August. CFA District 8 fire-fighters donated their time to help mentor the more than 20 students, aged 14 to 15, as they tried their hand at fighting fires and took part in realistic search and rescue drills. The day was part of Operation New Start Casey and Operation New Start South East. Dandenong CFA, Headspace and 14 schools run the Casey group and Dandenong High School runs the other program on a site in David Street. Schools can refer students to take part who are aged 14 to 16, at risk of dropping out of school early or in need of extra support. Dandenong Fire Brigade senior station officer Darren Padgett said the training day helped at-risk teenagers learn new skills and build confidence. “We are passionate about getting involved because we don’t want to see kids on the streets or fall through the cracks at school and we want to try to keep young people out of trouble,” he said. “We do hot fire drills with the group, including using fire extinguishers and show them how we use breathing apparatus. We even set up search and rescue drills. “The kids get a lot out of it - I think the program starts to give them hope and shows them that they can do something really positive with their life too, if they make the right choices. “Some of the kids have come from quite challenging backgrounds and so this is all about helping them turn their life around and getting them back on the right track.”

Joe’s reward By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS
IT MAY sound like a bit of charitable backscratching - a charity stalwart being crowned with the Rotary Club of Springvale City’s community service award last month. Joe Rechichi has been given the Paul Harris award for his long community service, including 20-plus years with Springvale Benevolent Society. On call 24/7 as president of the volunteer-run charity, Mr Rechichi makes house calls with food and other necessities to needy families.
The charity spends about $100,000 a year as well as giving away donated food, blankets, furniture and whitegoods. It helps about 5000 individuals - including asylum seekers, working poor and single parents. It runs on donations, from private sources and all tiers of government - with administrative costs kept to a bare minimum. “We give out to the community everything it needs from everything that we receive,” Mr Rechichi said. Rotary Club of Springvale
City vice-president Loc Lam said Mr Rechichi had been awarded for tirelessly heading the “popular” charity for the past 10 years. Mr Lam’s club of 10 members pulls its own weight, raising funds at its fortnightly Sunday markets at Sandown Greyhounds car park. Springvale Benevolent Society holds its AGM at Springvale Senior Citizens Club, 3 The Crescent on 23 September at 7pm. To join Rotary Club of Springvale City, call Mr Lam on 0425 806 006.

Open invite to thieves By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS ALARMINGLY in many cases, victims have given an open invitation to home burglars and thefts from motor vehicles. According to state crime stats 2012-'13, half of thefts from cars showed no sign of forced entry. In about 20 per cent of house burglaries, entry was gained through an unlocked door or window. Last week, the State Government launched a ‘Help Yourself’ campaign in Dandenong to give security tips to would-be victims.
South Eastern Metropolitan region MP Inga Peulich said residential burglary, theft from motor vehicles and personal theft - which comprise 30 per cent of Victoria’s reported crime - were often opportunistic. “Through the adoption of simple precautions, many could be prevented,” Mrs Peulich said. She took a swipe at the State Opposition’s scrapping of its crime-prevention shadow portfolio. “There could be no starker indication of how little Labor cares about community safety
and community crime prevention than removing its own Shadow Minister,” Mrs Peulich said. Joanna Palatsides, Liberal candidate for Dandenong, said “everyone needed to play their part” to drive down crime. Details: helpyourself.vic. gov.au Ms Peulich also announced a $9950 state grant to Greater Dandenong council for antigraffiti measures, such as instructional videos to prevent and remove graffiti on public and private property.

BUSINESS SOUTH-EAST
Remembering Clarence By CASEY NEILL CLARENCE Reardon was just seven months old when he succumbed to a month-long battle with whooping cough on 19 March 1902. The following day he became the first burial at Springvale Botanical Cemetery. Last Thursday, Southern Metropolitan Cemeteries Trust (SMCT) named a new $12.9 million function and administration centre in his honour. Health and Ageing Minister David Davis joined Clarence’s fourth cousins, Patricia Mourant and Bronwen Sanneman, to open the centre on 11 September. “I think it’s lovely to respect the past when you’re building for the future,” Ms Mourant said. “There are so many modern things now that don’t take into account the past.” Cultural heritage manager and historian Celestina Sagazio said other cemetery features were named after trustees. “What a wonderful thing for a little boy to have the centre named after him,” she said. Ms Sagazio said Springvale was very remote when the cemetery opened. “A lot of poor people and babies and wards of the state were buried here in the very early years because this cemetery undercut Melbourne General Cemetery,” she said. “The railway opened in 1904 but was never very popular, so they never got the patronage that they wanted.” She helped to track down Clarence’s family members. “I tried to do my own research and, pardon the pun, I came to a dead end,” she said. The Genealogical Society of Victoria completed a full search and discovered volunteer Wilma Mourant - Patricia and Bronwen’s mother, who was overseas last week - was “a descendent of the first wife of the grandfather”.
The Clarence Reardon Centre is designed to reflect the surrounding landscape. 126886
Sisters Bronwen Sanneman and Patricia Mourant visit the grave of their fourth cousin, Pictures: STEWART CHAMBERS Clarence Reardon. 126886 “I thought we would never find them,” Ms Sagazio said. “The GSV are the experts and they came good.” The cemetery recently cleaned and stabilised the historic grave. “Just recently we were given permission from the Department of Health to use non-core funds -
proceeds from tours, publications, donations - for the restoration of monuments,” Ms Sagazio said. “That’s something that most of us have been arguing for for 20 years or more.” SMCT CEO Jonathan Tribe said naming the centre in Clarence’s honour was symbolic of its role as a custodian of history. “We could think of no better way of honour-
ing his short life and, by doing so, acknowledging that our cemetery has served the community for over a century,” he said. The function and administration facility is one of the largest investment projects the trust has undertaken. Construction started in July 2013. The carbon-neutral complex includes seven botanical-inspired function rooms, a commercial kitchen, and a cafe-florist with alfresco dining deck and children’s playground. The first floor is SMCT’s principal headquarters. The building was designed to blend seamlessly with Springvale Botanical Cemetery’s expansive gardens, with surrounding trees reflected in its specially treated glass facade. Each function room accommodates up to 50 guests and the flexible floor plan can combine with adjoining rooms to accommodate larger gatherings.
Advertorial
PRINCIPAL OF YELLOW BRICK ROAD DANDENONG DELWYN RAYNER, EACH WEEK SHARES A COLUMN ON WEALTH MANAGEMENT AND FINANCIAL MATTERS FOR THE JOURNAL.
Do you know your credit history? Here is why you should A story in the newspapers recently told of a company that offered a free credit score and had its web site crash from all the traffic. I’m heartened by the story because it suggests there are many people out there who are interested in how the financial services industry scores their credit worthiness, they know it affects their ability to borrow in in the future and, I assume, they want to do something about it. A credit score tracks your application and repayment of debt. Obvious debt includes a mortgage, car finance and credit card, but phone companies and other utilities also run credit accounts. A credit reporting agency receives information from finance companies, banks and utilities, and adds it to your credit file. Those things worth reporting include There are a few steps people can take: Clean up: start by getting your repayments organised for credit cards, bills and loans. You can’t change history but you can influence your financial future. Job and house: take the easy points on a credit score and don’t change address or job for a year before applying for a mortgage. Applications: take the easy points on a credit score and don’t change address or job for a year before applying for a mortgage. Get a report: you can go to the web site of a reporting agency such as Veda to access your credit report. Once you know your score – and the reasons for it – you can start planning. Note that obtaining your credit report does not impact your credit score. Broker: some mortgage brokers provide a free credit report because it will help determine which lenders will consider your loan application. If you’re working with a mortgage broker, be sure to ask about this service. 1154211-CG37-14
arrears on a bill (usually more than 60 days late), missed loan repayments, new applications for credit, and defaults. Most of this information remains on file for about five years. Credit reports collect change of address, change of job, court writs and insolvency action. They also capture information such as when someone becomes a guarantor on a loan. While an agency collects your credit history and gives you a score, it’s the lender you are dealing with who makes the final credit scoring and decides what kind of risk you represent. New home buyers, especially, can become nervous when they approach a mortgage lender – they can’t remember their credit histories and what might be in a credit file to hinder their chances.
Build the positive: changes introduced this year mean you get to build a score on positive credit behavior. This means that every repayment made on time is a small positive mark on your credit file. It’s worth thinking about how to take advantage of this. Credit reports are a fact of life if you want to borrow money – they can be really helpful, so learn how they work and start planning. Good luck.

Panthers Hawks unite By JARROD POTTER DANDENONG Cricket Club has voted to merge with Hawthorn-Monash University Cricket Club. In a 61-nil vote, the Panthers decided at a special AGM on Wednesday night to unite with the Hawks ahead of the 2015-16 season. With Hawthorn-Monash University Cricket Club forced from its university home - on account of a new residential development at the Clayton campus - Dandenong put its hand up to join forces with the Hawks ahead of next year’s season. Dandenong Cricket Club president Michael Findlay said the move to merge was necessary to consolidate the Panthers’ base as the premier club of Greater Dandenong and surround-
ing council areas including Bayside and Monash. The Panthers’ decision also prevents Greater Dandenong splitting its resources to fund two premier teams if Hawthorn-Monash University had aligned with Sub-District team Noble Park. “It was mooted that they’d be moving to either Noble Park or Bayside area and we believe that within the Greater Dandenong area, there is not the depth of elite cricketers to benefit two clubs,” Findlay said. “Bayside area is one of our big recruiting areas and we thought the expression of another club in the medium term would pose problems for us. “There is also the possibility with the local council having to fund two premier local cricket facilities there
Armstrong makes the grade
Dandenong Cricket Club has plenty to celebrate after a vote by the Panthers to merge with Hawthorn-University Cricket Club passed unanimously. 110335 Picture: JARROD POTTER would be a drop-off in what the council could provide to us in terms of facilities.” The new club will likely be called Dandenong-Hawthorn Cricket Club and pending Hawthorn-Monash University Cricket Club’s vote on the matter in two weeks it will create a powerhouse club in the south-east suburbs. “I think they’re (Hawthorn-Monash University) fairly confident they’ll
vote in favour of merging with us,” Findlay said. “We’ll be looking at colours, logos and a nickname over the next year leading up to July next year. “It will consolidate premier cricket around Shepley Oval and allow us to be more pro-active in recruiting and coaching.” The Panthers will benefit from the
upgrades to Shepley Oval - with the gym, change rooms and offices set to be completed by the end of September ahead of a cricket-season opener against Essendon at home on 4 October. Dandenong Cricket Club needs volunteers for the upcoming season to help out as team managers and scorers - to get in contact with the club, contact Dandenong on dandenong@club. cricketvictoria.com.au.
Cougars raise their game By JARROD POTTER
William Armstrong was thrilled to make the School Sport Victoria cross country team... even if he could not compete at the nationals. 125789 Picture: JARROD POTTER
By JARROD POTTER EVEN though he could not compete at the nationals, Haileybury crosscountry runner William Armstrong was thrilled just to make the School Sport Victoria Cross Country team. Armstrong, 17, from Southbank, earned his place in the state crosscountry squad after a high-ranking performance at the state finals earlier this year. A back injury curtailed any chance of Armstrong attending the national finals, held last month in Albany, Western Australia, and although he was unable to compete, he was excited to earn his place on the team. “I was relieved and happy to make the team,” Armstrong said. “I had a back injury following the race, so I had to pull out, but I made the team so that was my goal and I’m pretty excited about that. “There’s always next year.” His goal of making the team was
forged as a kid, as he always wanted to improve his running while he was moving up the age-groups and the rankings. “I guess it was just a lot of training and dedication and it’s been a goal of mine for about two years now,” Armstrong said. “I’ve always wanted to do it ever since I was a kid, but I’ve really focused on doing it the last two years… it took a lot of training and listening to my body, and not missing out on any sessions.” He’ll switch his focus to athletics over the summer where he will run his pet event - the 3000 metre run. Last year he earned a fourth place finish in the All Schools Athletics Championships in the 3000m and hopes to make it onto the dais this year. Armstrong wanted to thank Tom Watson, a former student and his running coach, school coach Kate Richardson along with his parents Anne and David for their support.
SEEKING a new challenge inspired Keysborough championship coach Craig Smethurst to switch across to the women’s team. Smethurst, who led the Big V Youth League-2 Men to a 76-61 victory over Coburg, will now coach the Keysborough Big V women’s program as he hopes to push the Cougars up the Division 2 Women’s ladder following a lacklustre three-game-from-15, 2014 season. The newly appointed women’s coach said the challenge of coaching the new senior team and pushing them up the ladder was motivation enough to make the change. Keysborough women’s program went through three coaches in 2014 and Smethurst hopes to provide more stability for the team next season. “It’s a new challenge for me coaching the women and it’s a senior team as well,” Smethurst said. “I saw the girls wanting to do a lot better and it was a tough situation to be in this year and a tough way to start for the team. “I suppose I’ll be taking a lot of the culture and the processes we’ve had with the Youth League and senior men and transplant that to the women’s game.” Smethurst’s charges are already training ahead of the new season - next March - highlighting how seriously the Cougars want to improve. “If we put the right group of people on the court we’ll get success,” Smethurst said. “We have a core group of seveneight girls who are returning and have been training together and are straight back into it. “Coming off the year they had, they don’t want to be complacent.” The wish list for Smethurst at the
Keysborough’s Big V women’s program received a boost this week after championship-winning coach Craig Smethurst signed on to coach the Picture: JARROD POTTER Cougars in 2015. 125368 recruiting table will be to gain some older talent as the Cougars struggled to have many in the line-up with significant experience in 2014. Smethurst said leaving the Youth League Men’s team behind was a tough decision, but knows the team is in good hands with newly appointed coach Andre Solomons. “We had a fantastic group - I said it after the finals it takes talent to be successful but the thing we have on top of that are great people,” Smethurst said. “They all come from great families and great upbringings… that made it very easy to coach them. “They generally respect each other on and off the court - really driven to succeed and they’d run through a brick
wall for each other.” Nathan Vogt was re-signed as BIG V Division-2 Men’s senior coach following the team’s fourth place finish after its elimination from the finals by eventual premiers’ Shepparton. Keysborough is staying active in the off-season with two women’s teams in Division 1 of the Wednesday night competition Melbourne Metropolitan Basketball League (MMBL). The Cougars are hosting try-outs for their 2015 teams with prospective players encouraged to attend.

TAC CUP - preliminary final
Kyle Gray excelled in Dandenong’s defence while the rest of the lineup faltered against Calder. 127325
Cannonball run takes toll By JARROD POTTER HARDER, better, faster, stronger. Dandenong could not match Calder Cannons in any area and were left to lick its wounds and bow out of the TAC Cup premiership race following a 53-point preliminary final defeat. From the opening bounce the Cannons had control of the clash. Dandenong trailed in every facet - on the statsheet or the scoreboard - as the minor premiers showed exactly why they earned top spot in the TAC Cup this season. The Stingrays struggled to maintain possession as Calder forced turnovers and intercepted seemingly at will. Dandenong’s run-and-carry - a highlight of its prior pair of finals’ victories this season - was also absent and it left Calder with free reign to take possession and charge of the match. Calder trio Josh Cauchi (4 goals), Damien
Pumas avenge loss
Cavka (3 goals) and Hisham Kerbatieh (2 goals) shredded the Dandenong defence leaving a lot of problems for the Stingrays to counteract. Through the midfield the Stingrays could not stop Cannons’ mighty ruckman Mark Kovacevic, who towered over Dandenong ruck’s Aaron Pawel and Harrison Prior. To their credit the Dandenong duo had the hardest job of the day and toiled in the ruck to negate Kovacevic from getting even more of the football. Only a couple of back-to-back goaling efforts from the Stingrays in the second and third terms kept the match from blowing out early. The last chance for Dandenong was from the first bounce of the final term, but Calder found its way to the goals and kicked truly via Cavka to seal the game and book its grand final ticket. Captain Jack Lonie kicked three goals to keep the Stingrays’ scoreboard ticking over. Leading the charge for Dandenong were its defenders - Mitch White (24 disposals) racked up
PREMIERSHIP glory did arrive within Greater Dandenong this season as one team managed to hold aloft the cup. Following Lyndale’s senior team losing to Mount Waverley last weekend in the Southern Football League (SFL) Division-3 preliminary final, all eyes turned to the Pumas reserves to get the job done over Carrum Patterson Lakes and avenge the senior boys. The Pumas struck hard after half-time, snaring six goals in the
possessions while Kyle Gray (21 possessions) was exceptional as one of the Stingrays’ tall defenders. Dandenong coach Craig Black said the cannonball run from the Stingrays through the finals started to tire the troops, while Calder remained fresher following a weekend off, but he was impressed by his defenders who stood strong all afternoon. “They’re a really good footy team, I think that’s why they finished on top… I think the last couple of weeks really caught up with us,” Black said. “Mitch White was really good for us, Kyle Gray, Daylan Kempster and our skipper Jack Lonie kicked three goals and worked pretty hard. “He’s (Gray) really stood up when we need him in important games… its really good for the kid to hopefully get an opportunity… he showed just how good he can play.” Looking back on his first season at the helm of the Stingrays, Black was excited to get through
third term to build the buffer to 46 points by the final change. The bigger cats in the final pounced in the last term - the Pumas mauled the Lions at the stoppages and around the goals to boot seven goals and take an emphatic 16.10 (106) to 5.9 (39) win. Justin King lived up to his name as the forward monarch reigned supreme with six goals while Jared Henshaw (4 goals), Jeremy Vigliarolo, Brian Grundy and Nathan Welsh (2 goals apiece) rounded out
the Pumas’ goalscorers. Best on ground for the Dales was David Luong, while King, Edward Faamausili and Matt Smith also featured prominently. It was Lyndale’s first reserves’ premiership since 2000 when the club also earned its last senior premiership. The Division-3 senior grand final was marred by a melee that broke out in the crowd, forcing the cancellation of the game at halftime.
to a preliminary final and hoped it would help a couple of his charges get their names called at the draft. “It’s an absolutely fantastic program to be involved in,” Black said. “To actually be the coach is even better, but we have wonderful staff and we made a prelim, so it’s still probably a good year, we just hope they get taken in the draft. “The boys - the 60 we have on the list - are really good, compete really hard so I’m proud that we got this far - good luck in their journey whether they play VFL or they get drafted.” Calder will face Oakleigh Chargers in the TAC Cup grand final, held at Etihad Stadium on Sunday from 10.30am.

breakthrough goal in the 30th minute as Joel Nikolic headed home the first from a set piece. Nikolic doubled the lead just after the resumption - shooting cleanly from the penalty spot in the 47th minute, before Nicholas Symeoy kicked the final nail into the Dandenong City coffin for the afternoon. Dandenong’s efforts almost reaped goals at the other end following the Moreland goal-spree as Dario Matkovic continue to toil and set up chances.
EVEN though the Police Paddocks are usually full of kangaroos and passing wombats, a Zebra infestation took hold on Saturday as Moreland knocked off home-side Dandenong City 0-3 at Frank Holohan Soccer Complex. The City boys were keen to move up the ladder with a win, but Moreland let nothing penetrate its defences. Moreland’s attack almost reaped dividends early in the clash before the

Undisciplined efforts from Steven Topalovic and Goran Jozeljic left the pair with double yellow cards and the referee sent them from the field in the 76th and 79th minute respectively. The pair are now set to miss next week’s clash against St Albans. Springvale White Eagles were bested by the NPL1 ladder leaders Avondale Heights 0-3 following a comprehensive victory by the visitors to the Serbian Sports Centre. Defensive errors cost the White Ea-
gles dearly as the visitors walked past Springvale’s last line with ease. Goals to Daniel Slovacek, Zoran Pajic and Michele Crazia eviscerated any chance of the White Eagles taking a point. With two matches left in the inaugural NPL1 season, Springvale White Eagles faces Whittlesea Ranges away on Friday night while Dandenong City heads off to play St Albans Saints on Sunday. Dandenong Thunder played its last
match of the NPL season on Sunday afternoon when the Thunder clashed with Heidelberg United after the Journal went to print.

50 years of the 500

MOTOR-MANIA gripped Greater Dandenong over the weekend as the annual Wilson Security Sandown 500 touched down at Sandown Racecourse. The week-long festival of V8 Supercar racing - celebrating its 50-year anniversary since the first Sandown 500 in 1964 - culminated on Sunday afternoon with the 161-lap enduro. Sandown, serves as the final lead-in race before the biggest race on the calendar the Bathurst 1000. Jamie Whincup and Paul Dumbrell returned to defend their title earned in 2013, and took pole position for the main race after leading the 20-lap second qualifying race from start to finish. Whincup/Dumbrell took the 500-kilometre race win last year ahead of team-mates Craig Lowndes/Warren Luff and Ford Performance Racing’s Will Davison and Steve Owen. For race results and all the pictures from Sandown, go to the Dandenong Journal website www.dandenong.starcommunity.com.au.
CELEBRITY greyhound Bunga Bunga stole the show last Thursday night at Sandown Park, collecting her first city win in just her 18th start. Trained by the Greenough kennel, Bunga Bunga flew out of box one stopping the clock at a fast 5.08 to the first split. Once she settled at the head of the field it was game, set and match. She then went on to extend her early lead to win by three lengths in a smart 29.76. The win was her second on the trot, having won her previous race at Cranbourne. Owned by Triple M’s Hot Breakfast team, Bunga Bunga has always shown ability ever since winning on debut at Warragul, however, keeping her on the track has always been an issue for connections. A rise in distance could be imminent for Bunga Bunga, having already had a stint over the journey earlier in the year. Bunga Bunga or ‘Marsha’ as she is known
