The Wizard awaits you

(Mathew Lynn)

We’re off to see the wizard, the wonderful Wizard of Oz. We hear he is a whiz of a wiz, if ever a wiz there was. Dorothy, Tin Man, Scarecrow and Lion will be skipping down the yellow brick road to Bacchus Marsh, in lieu of Emerald City, next weekend. The Community Theatre Company has been busy putting together the Wizard of Oz musical, featuring a live orchestra and all the well-known songs, including Over the Rainbow, Follow the Yellow Brick Road and If I Only had a Brain. The first show will be from 1pm on Saturday, August 22, at the Impresario Theatre, 5 Grant Street, with several other shows throughout August and September. For more information, click your heels three times and call 5367 6864. JESSICA DOYLE (DOROTHY), LUCY (TOTO) AND DAVID HEATON (TIN MAN)

Sacked without warning By Sumeyya Ilanbey Five cleaners at Melton Waves leisure centre turned up for work to be told they’d been sacked. Australian Services Union organiser Melissa Wainwright said the workers were shocked when they were handed a termination letter on Thursday, July 30, saying they were no longer needed and would be replaced by contract staff. “To say these workers are shocked is an understatement,” Ms Wainwright said. “To have your employment terminated is bad enough, but to have it done when you aren’t expecting it is something they are really struggling with.

“They can’t understand why management would treat them with such disrespect, seeing there was absolutely no consultation regarding a move to use contracted staff.” Ms Wainwright said the union was “disgusted” with Belgravia Leisure, which manages Melton Waves on behalf of the council, for treating staff who’d shown “loyalty” over years “with such disrespect”. “We will be ensuring that our members are supported through this process, including exhausting all industrial avenues. Staff at Belgravia Leisure deserve to be treated respectfully and with transparency.” Belgravia Leisure regional manager Drew Hildebrandt told Star Weekly the cleaners’

positions had been made redundant after “a review of the operation at Melton Waves”. “The operational review determined that further efficiencies were required to protect the interests of the business and the rest of the staff team,” Mr Hildebrandt said. But it wasn’t until after they were sacked that the five cleaners were told about possible future employment opportunities. Mr Hildebrandt said Belgravia Leisure could “redeploy” the staff to other positions at the facility, but this would require skills training and more qualifications. “Each staff member has been informed that we will welcome the opportunity to work with them on this, should it be a desirable option

for them,” Mr Hildebrandt said. “Some were considering a move outside our industry.” Mr Hildebrandt said: “Our ability to re-employ them at other Belgravia sites [as cleaners] was not possible as no available positions were available, with the majority of the management operating contract cleaners.” Melton council was informed of Belgravia Leisure’s decision to sack employees but was not consulted, recreation and youth manager Adrian Burns said. “Council will continue to monitor the cleanliness of Melton Waves and will address any future issues regarding facility cleanliness with Belgravia should they arise,” he said.

Worker discovers bodies in car By Sumeyya Ilanbey Police are continuing investigatiions into the discovery of two bodies found inside a car on the side of the road at Plumpton last week. About 11.30am last Thursday, a Melton council worker made the grisly discovery on Taylors Road, near Vere Road, Plumpton. Detective Senior Sergeant Stuart Bailey, of the homicide squad, said the man in his 50s and a woman in her late 40s were found in the car. The man had a bullet wound to his upper body.

Detective Senior Sergeant Bailey said the woman’s body was found lying on the rear seat of the car, while the man was found slumped in the driver’s seat with a longarm firearm nearby. The front passenger window of the 1999 silver Ford sedan appeared to be pitted with bullet holes. “The cause of death for both these people is yet to be established,” Detective Senior Sergeant Bailey said. “We currently have ballistics and other forensic teams to establish what has occurred.” He said personal information about the pair

would not be released to the media, but he did confirm the two were known to each other, and most likely knew the area. The car had been sighted about 12.15pm last Wednesday on Taylors Road, but police believe it could have been there since last Tuesday. A post-mortem was conducted late last week. Detective Senior Sergeant Bailey said there had been some reports to police about the deceased, but he would not release details. The council worker who initially called police

was said to be shocked after making “what was a fairly gruesome discovery”, Detective Senior Sergeant Bailey said, and has since been receiving counselling. The owner of a property near where the car was found said randomly parked cars and the sound of gunshots are a regular occurrence in the area and neighbours generally don’t take much notice. People facing personal problems can contact Lifeline on 13 11 44, beyondblue on 9818 6100 or Suicide Line on 1300 651 251.

Victoria Vassallo took part in the sleep-out to raise money. (Kristian Scott)

Kids in the cold show their warmth at Catholic Regional College slept rough last Friday night as part of the St Vincent de Paul Victoria’s School and Community Sleepout. Twenty-three students and five staff slept at the school hall, with no heating and heard from guest speakers from Victoria Police and Macaulay Women’s Health. Teacher Margaret Rowe-Watts said the overnight sleepout encouraged students to appreciate what they had, with the simplest being a warm bed. “[I’m doing this] for two reasons,” Ms Rowe-Watts said. “One is to provide an opportunity for students to help others and

gain an appreciation of the wonderful things we have. The second is to raise funds.” Ms Rowe-Watts said the school, which is heavily involved in social justice programs, was all about carrying out its “Catholic ethos”. “Our faith is based on the fact that we should do good for others,” she said. Ms Rowe-Watts said the students and staff also spent a few hours of the night outside, before heading home at 7am on Saturday. “It’s an amazing effort from the kids and wonderful to have their parents’ support,” she said.

For tens of thousands of Victorians, a home is a corner on the side of a road or a damp spot under a bridge. There’s no fireplace to escape the winter blast or an airconditioner to escape the scalding heat in summer. Coming home doesn’t mean being welcomed with a hot chicken soup or the luxury of lazing around. For our homeless, how long has it been since they called somewhere home, or how long before they call a place home again? To raise awareness of the plight of 22,773 men, women and children experiencing homelessness in Victoria, students and staff

Third time was not lucky for Xhelil Memedi, who had applied to Moorabool council to develop a nine-lot housing subdivision at Darley. An application for the 305 Ross Street subdivision first went to council on October 8, 2009, and a permit was issued on January 13, 2010 to another developer. At the time, the condition was that development start by January 13, 2012, and be finished within two years. An initial extension of time, for two years, was granted on March 2012, and a second extension, for a year, was granted in January last year. But Cr John Spain last week led a move to refuse any further extension of the permit, now held by Mr Memedi. “The application is for a third extension of time and, since the permit was issued on 13 January, 2010, no works have commenced,” Cr Spain said. “The proposed development is not in keeping with the emerging character of the precinct. [And] the proposal would detrimentally affect nearby residential amenity.” But Cr Pat Toohey disagreed, asking fellow councillors to extend the time limit again, warning the issue could end up at the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal. “The responsibility we have is to be conscious of where we spend ratepayers’ dollars. This would be wasted energy for our planning department and of resources to defend something VCAT would approve,” Cr Toohey said. Councillors Spain, Tonia Dudzik, David Edwards and Allan Comrie voted to refuse a permit extension, while councillors Toohey, Sullivan and Tatchell supported it.

Grants help cull invaders Melton landowners along the environmentally significant western volcanic plains can get help tackling weed and pest animal species, thanks to a new round of Landcare grants. Expressions of interest are now open for round three of the Valuing our Volcanic Plains grants, co-ordinated by Port Phillip and Westernport Catchment Management Authority with federal government, national Landcare program funds. Federal Environment Minister Greg Hunt encouraged home owners to apply for grants of up to $20,000 to help protect threatened species. “The partnership between Port Phillip and Westernport CMA, Melton council, and landholders in these important native grasslands is a great way to deliver local on-ground action,” Mr Hunt said. “Reducing invasive weeds and pest animals will help restore these valuable, threatened native grasslands to their natural state.” Ian Taylor, who runs a native plant nursery at Wildwood near Sunbury, recommends landowners of all kinds of properties apply for the grants. “There are plenty of people doing good work … and this grant program can help accomplish a lot more than you might have been able to do otherwise,” Mr Taylor said.

The scene of a hit and run in Taylors Hill. (Supplied)

Drug link to hit-run A man in his 40s from the north-western suburbs is in hospital with life-threatening leg and facial injuries after being struck by a car in Taylors Hill. Police are investigating the incident on The Esplanade, which occurred about noon last Monday after an earlier altercation between several men in Streeton Avenue, Caroline Springs. It’s believed the man was injured on The Esplanade following a pursuit involving two vehicles.

The man, believed to be suffering serious leg and facial injuries, was found on the road and taken by ambulance to The Alfred hospital. A black Ford Territory believed to have been involved in the hit and run was found rolled over on Taylors Road outside Gilson College. Nobody associated with the vehicle was found at the location. Police would not confirm if a gun was used during any of the incidents. Inspector Kerin Moloney said the incidents were drug-related.

“We’re exploring the connection to cannabis, there’s no doubt about that,” he said. “We’re exploring a burglary component. “I would have some confidence there was some sort of criminal behaviour between the parties involved.” He said the three incidents occurred in a period of 10 to 15 minutes. “This is normally a very quiet neighbourhood,” he said. “The three incidents are linked as we normally don’t get these sort of incidents within a short period of time.”

A dream to come true

Overflow sends water to river

(Shawn Smits)

By Sumeyya Ilanbey Freedom … what does it mean to you? For one Maddingley woman, it’s being in the middle of the ocean, feeling the sea breeze and seeing the vastness of the world on a horizon. Angela Tull has type 3 spinal muscular atrophy and has been in a wheelchair for most of her life, so the notion of freedom is paramount. “Freedom’s a huge thing for me,” Ms Tull says. “Anybody who’s been so confined, whether it’s to a wheelchair or confined to a bed, it’s that entrapment feeling that you try to escape.” About 10 months ago, Ms Tull’s doctors told her she had less than 18 months to live. She was told to get her “affairs in order”, but for the mum-of-two that meant creating as many memories as she could with her children, Jessica, 20, and Justin, 19. “I want my kids to remember me for who I am. I was always an active mum, even in the wheelchair – I was at the school doing their readers and I coached the school golf team,” she says. “My kids have always seen me up and about and doing everything, but these five years have just been so hard.” Ms Tull’s eyes light up as she speaks about her children, but they fill with tears when nostalgia takes over. To help create lasting memories Ms Tull, her two children and two carers will travel to Tasmania on a cruise later this year. But the family needs to raise $5000 to cover the expenses. To help out the Tulls, visit http://www. gofundme.com/yxzw4s. “For me, the ocean means freedom,” Ms Tull said.

INGLISTON FARM CROSSING REMOVAL

Water from the Melton Recycled Plant has been released into the Werribee River after recent rains put storages at capacity. Western Water’s customer and community relations general manager, Graham Holt, said storages at the plant were full because of the rains and a decrease in demand for recycled water. In 2013-14, Western Water and its customers used almost 90 per cent of the recycled water from the plant for farm irrigation and non-drinking purposes at new homes and industrial developments. Mr Holt said the Environment Protection Authority, catchment management authorities and local environment groups had been notified of Western Water’s decision to temporarily release diluted class-C recycled water into the river. “The health of the Werribee River is a priority … we have been working for many years with community and Landcare groups to improve this and surrounding waterways,” he said. “We have worked closely with Southern Rural Water to ensure the recycled water is released in a controlled way to minimise changes to water quality and ensure recycled water is not diverted into the Werribee irrigation district.” Mr Holt said Western Water was looking for more customers of recycled water “to benefit the community”.

Noel Heafield grew up with stories about the Country Fire Authority. It’s the best job in the world, his brothers would say. The 37-year-old Ballan man can now witness first-hand the triumphs and tribulations of being on the frontline. Mr Heafield graduated on July 31, and has been posted to the Belmont Fire Brigade in the Geelong region. “It’s been great so far – everyone looks out for each other and there’s a great deal of mateship and camaraderie.” Mr Heafield is the third of three brothers to join the CFA. All three started their careers in Geelong. Eldest brother Tony was stationed in Geelong city as a new recruit in 2011. Today, he’s senior station officer at Ocean Grove.

In 2003, middle brother Terry graduated from recruit training and was stationed at Corio. He’s now operations officer for CFA District 23, based in Wangaratta. For all three brothers, the CFA has been a career change. Noel was a zookeeper, Tony a fitter and turner and Terry an information technology manager. Terry said the career change was a welcome change of direction. Asked if he has aspirations to follow in his brothers’ footsteps by taking up a leadership position within the CFA, Noel says he has “shorter-term goals”. “At the moment I’m just focusing on being the best I can be,” he said.

Pair fail to break in

Two men tried to break into two Kurunjang homes in the early hours of Tuesday, July 28. About 2.30am, two men smashed the window of a Sirius Way home. The home owners awoke to see two men running to a white sedan parked nearby. Police believe the same offenders tried to break into an Archer Drive home an hour later.

Police are appealing for help over a daylight attack on a man at a car wash. The man had just had his car cleaned at the Barries Road premises on July 28 when a white sedan pulled up nearby. A male offender told the victim to get out of his car before his car keys were snatched from him. A number of males got out of the white car and began punching the victim, who managed to grab his keys back and run to a fast-food store for assistance. Crime Stoppers: 1800 333 000

Melton housing affordable, but … By Sumeyya Ilanbey Melton has been dubbed the most affordable Melbourne metropolitan municipality. Yet 50 per cent of people on Centrelink benefits are unable to afford to live there, according to a Department of Health and Human Services report. The department defines “affordable” as paying no more than a third of the renter’s net income. The rental report, for the March quarter, found 51.7 per cent of houses in Melton were affordable to households relying solely on Centrelink income. Melton was followed by

Wyndham (50.6 per cent), Cardinia (40.6 per cent), Nillumbik (31.2 per cent) and Brimbank (29 per cent). Melton continued to be an affordable-rent municipality for both two-bedroom flats ($240 a week) and three-bedroom houses ($275). “The proportion of all new lettings that were affordable across the state decreased to 17.9 per cent in the March quarter, compared with 22.2 per cent in the December quarter, 2014,” the report states. “It is a slight increase on the March quarter, 2014 (17.8 per cent).” The report says metropolitan Melbourne continues to register very low levels of rental

affordability. “The proportion of affordable new letting in March, 2015, was 8.3 per cent,” it says. The report found the proportion of affordable houses in regional Victoria had decreased slightly to 59.1 per cent, compared with 62.2 per cent in the December quarter. However, the proportion is higher than in the March quarter, 2014 (56.2 per cent).” More than 65 per cent of Moorabool flats and houses were affordable in the last quarter, according to the report. But some municipalities in regional Victoria, such as Loddon and West Wimmera, attained 100 per

cent affordability. The report also compared the number of active bonds held by tenants in each municipality during the past five years. In the five years to March, 2015, the highest increases in active bonds have been in municipalities on the outer fringes of Melbourne – in Nillumbik (87.1 per cent), Melton (73.4), Wyndham (71), Cardinia (65.6), Hume (64.7) and Whittlesea (63.4). Meanwhile, in regional Victoria, Moorabool (54.1 per cent), Pyrenees (50), Mitchell (45), Baw Baw (42.5) and Buloke (37.7) recorded the highest increases in active bonds held by tenants.

A lifetime of learning Gail Larkin remembers the early days of Kurunjang Secondary College – chalkboards, typewriters and plug-and-cord phones. The school has improved vastly since it was opened in the 1980s with only a handful of year 7 students now studying in portable classrooms. Ms Larkin speaks of her 29 years at the school as time that has passed in the blink of an eye, even though “it feels like a lifetime ago since I started”. Now the college has interactive whiteboards, iPads, the internet, thousands of students and dozens of staff – something she could not have envisioned when she started working with the Education Department in 1973. Ms Larkin worked at Tottenham Technical School for 13 years before starting at Kurunjang Secondary College. “It’s been an interesting career to say the least,” Ms Larkin says.

“There has never been a dull moment.” The human resources manager says the Education Department, teachers, students and schools have improved since her teenage days working as a typist at “Totty”. “You see the teachers grow and that in itself is a wonderful thing to see – people growing in their roles and growing in what they do,” Ms Larkin says. “And I’m also constantly learning; I’m always picking up something new as the systems change. “It doesn’t matter how long you’ve been in a job, every day you’re learning.” At a ceremony recently Education Minister James Merlino presented Ms Larkin with an award celebrating her 42-year commitment to the Education Department.

Rate cap short on detail: council By Sumeyya Ilanbey Melton council has slammed a draft report by the Essential Services Commission into municipal rate capping, stating â€œinadequateâ€? detail has been provided and some matters â€œhave not been fully dealt withâ€?. The draft report proposes to cap rates at the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and Wage Price Index (WPI), but Melton council chief executive Kel Tori said the report failed to acknowledge the broader pressures faced by councils.

â€œCouncil officers believe that itâ€™s better than a straight CPI cap in that it recognises the significant component of council expenditure that is wage costs,â€? Mr Tori said. â€œBut it fails to acknowledge the cost pressures from contractors and other service providers, which council must engage to deliver the 100-plus services it provides to the community.â€? If the draft report is approved, rate increases will be capped at 3.05 per cent in the 2016-17 financial year and decline thereafter â€“ 2.85 per cent in 2017-18, and 2.8 per cent in 2018-19.

â€œWe are not proposing to adjust the cap to reflect other cost pressures faced by local councils, such as the costs of materials or construction,â€? the ESC report states. â€œSimilarly, in order to keep the cap as simple as possible, we have not attempted to adjust the cap to account for structural differences between councils, for cost pressures beyond councilâ€™s control, and infrastructure renewal.â€? Councils that need to increase rates above the CPI plus WPI formula will need to justify a â€œvariation processâ€? to the ESC. â€œWe are â€Ś concerned at the impact

the implied efficiency factor will have on council in the longer term, in its stewardship responsibilities for infrastructure assets,â€? Mr Tori said. â€œ[With a rate cap] at 3.05 per cent, the loss in revenue in year one will be about $1.8 million; in year two about $3.8 million, and in year three, about $6 million â€Ś so, across three years, a cumulative impact of $11.6 million.â€? Melton council will consider the draft report at its meeting tonight. Moorabool council chief executive Rob Croxford said officers were still analysing the ESC report.

Student chases equality Sophia Dâ€™Ambra is on a mission to eradicate education disadvantage, starting with Melton Secondary College. Ms Dâ€™Ambra is a Teach for Australia (TFA) associate on the cusp of graduating. Sheâ€™s been completing her studies while undertaking a placement at the Melton school as a Victorian Certificate of Education legal studies teacher. â€œIâ€™ve learned more about the challenges public schools face,â€? Ms Dâ€™Ambra said. â€œIâ€™ve learned a lot about how teachers think creatively, how they use their resources and how to work collaboratively with other staff members.â€? TFA recruits outstanding graduates who have scored highly on their ATAR and during their undergraduate studies across a range of fields, including law, science and economics. The associates are then deployed to the stateâ€™s most disadvantaged schools. Ms Dâ€™Ambra said that in order to create an equitable education

system, it was important to work with the stateâ€™s most disadvantaged communities. â€œItâ€™s sad that we have such an inequitable system in Australia,â€? she said. â€œI have a drive to be a part of a group of people who are trying to change that; it motivates me.â€? Melton Secondary College principal David Reynolds said the associatesâ€™ passion was invaluable in the classroom. â€œThe associates come with a stronger sense of commitment and enthusiasm to the work of teaching and to the task of getting the absolute best outcome for students,â€? he said. The state government announced last week it would commit $12.9 million to the 2016 TFA program, with Melton Secondary College one of the schools associates will be stationed at.

Judge rejects burglar’s appeal A Supreme Court judge has dismissed a Ballarat man’s appeal against his sentence, adding that the sentence imposed was a “generous one”. Christopher John Gladigau, 48, pleaded guilty last year to 10 burglary and theft offences in Ballarat, Bendigo and Bacchus Marsh, and was jailed for five years. At the time of sentencing, County Court Judge Gerard Mullaly said Gladigau’s “regular resort to crime was a consequence of his lifelong addiction to heroin”. Judge Mullaly said many items of sentimental value had been stolen during March and April 2013, with the monetary value of stolen items just under $100,000. “This sort of offending has a corrosive effect on our community,” Judge Mullaly said at the time. “Ordinary people become fearful that their homes, and even themselves, are not safe. The community is heartily sick of house burglaries and the fact that illegal drug use is behind it only makes the impact on the victims all the more frustrating.” Gladigau’s lawyers, from Victoria Legal Aid, appealed the sentence on the basis that the judge was given the incorrect information. “There is an error in the aggregate sentence first imposed in that the applicant was sentenced on the basis that the estimated monetary value of the items stolen was $96,914 when, in fact, that estimated monetary value ought to have been $64,744,” the lawyers said.

“The learned sentencing judge erred by imposing a sentence on charge 24 [seven days’ imprisonment], which exceeded the maximum penalty available for that offence [five penalty units].” Supreme Court judge Simon Whelan dismissed Gladigau’s appeals last week, saying “the sentencing judge’s reasons, if anything, understate the applicant’s criminal history”.

‘‘

Applicant has at least 40 prior convictions for … - Judge Whelan like offences

’’

“The number of times upon which the applicant has been before courts and been convicted of offences involving burglary and theft is quite extraordinary,” Judge Whelan said. “The applicant has at least 40 prior convictions for burglary or like offences.” Judge Whelan said he did not believe Judge Mullaly treated the value of the property as of significance. He said the matters which were significant were the 10 home invasions in the space of a month. “Given the applicant’s history, the view the sentencing judge took as to his remorse and his prospects of rehabilitation seems to me to have been a generous one from the applicant’s point of view,” Judge Whelan said. Gladigau is serving a five-year sentence, with a non-parole period of three years.

Lucky they’re with . . . The Melton State Emergency Service unit has been given new equipment as part of the annual AAMI equipment handover program. Melton SES members Wayne Stylianou and Rodney Fraser collected 10 tactical focus torches, a domestic resource kit and a fridge for their unit headquarters. SES chief executive Stephen Griffin thanked AAMI, which has been a partner with the SES since 2002. “I’m looking forward to hitting the road and seeing all the equipment distributed to help volunteers protect their communities,” Mr Griffin said.

AAMI general insurance sponsorships executive manager John Bennetts said he was pleased to be able to help out the SES crews. “We have 1450 pieces of equipment to hand over to volunteers across the state,” he said. “We’re so happy to be able to provide this support and it’s a great opportunity to get out and meet the volunteers who provide this invaluable service to our communities.” Melton was one of 34 volunteer SES units to receive new equipment.

When ‘violence’ is self-defence By Ben Cameron Women’s Health West has called for better police training after the force claimed there had been 57 family violence incidents in Melbourne’s west in June in which females were the perpetrators. Giving evidence at the Royal Commission on Family Violence last week, WHW Family Violence Services manager Jacky Tucker said the claim signalled that police needed more training to “accurately identify the perpetrator”. “We recognise on occasions that it may be difficult for police to ascertain who is the primary aggressor when they attend,” Ms

Tucker said. “My experience is that, when a woman is referred to us as a respondent, they are most likely to have used violence as self-defence and are, in fact, the primary victim of a perpetrator. “We received 733 police referrals [in June]. For 676 of these, the police identified male perpetrators. “For the remaining 57, the police identified female perpetrators … but only six were assessed by us as likely being the perpetrators,” Ms Tucker said. She said it was a myth that women were always submissive when victims of family violence. “Because a woman is angry, there’s some

‘‘

It may be difficult … to ascertain who is the primary - Jacky Tucker aggressor

’’

reason that anger is then transferred to identifying her as the perpetrator, where in fact she is not.” She said there had been “dramatic” change in the family violence sector in the past 10 years. “I think the relationship between police and family violence services, specifically women’s services, has changed from what used to be seen as a nearly combative relationship,

to really viewing each other as partners in responding to family violence. It’s just a different mindset.” Star Weekly revealed last month that family violence referrals by police to WHW had more than doubled in the past two years. Ms Tucker said referrals had jumped from 708 in 2006, to 8170 in the past year, with 750 to 900 referrals a month. “I keep thinking we will reach peak numbers, but it just keeps increasing,” she said. “Increased demand on police services is therefore a sign of progress. What we don’t know is whether violence against women is also increasing – there is no data that allows us to gauge that.”

Lara Jennings knows the ins and outs of teaching … and its ups and downs. The Melton mother not only juggles a toddler and a newborn, she’s also juggling a home-based business that has just been nominated for an AusMumpreneur award. Ms Jennings decided to start her Offspring Education business early this year after noticing a gap between school and home learning. “We’re about bridging the gap between the home and school environment,” she said. “We provide early-learning resources to early-learning centres, schools and kinders. And we also work with home-schooling parents and parents who want to be more engaged in their child’s learning.”

10 MELTON & MOORABOOL STAR WEEKLY \ AUGUST 11, 2015

The response to the business and resources has been great, said Ms Jennings, who strongly recommends parents engage in their child’s learning. “A lot of people don’t realise parent engagement is actually the most important influence on a child’s academic achievements,” she said. “That influence can be anywhere between 40 to 50 per cent – it’s a massive influence.” Ms Jennings said the AusMumpreneur award nomination had “validated” she was on the right track. Winners will be announced on September 5. AusMumpreneur awards details and votes for Ms Jennings are at ausmumpreneur.com Sumeyya Ilanbey

Sharing is supporting By Sumeyya Ilanbey There are plenty of people who could benefit from the Parkinson’s Support Group at Melton, but it has only about 10 regular members and wants more. The group meets on the second Tuesday of every month, inviting guest speakers to talk about the many issues that affect people living with Parkinson’s Disease, and those caring for them. Group secretary Evelyn Meijer, who has family members affected by the disease, said people really appreciated hearing about the experiences of others in the same situation. “They really enjoy coming to the meetings because they’re able to talk to people with similar problems,” Ms Meijer said. “And they also get information from health specialists.” At next Tuesday’s meeting, the group will hear from a Djerriwarrh Health Services counsellor, before members head out to lunch. And at the September meeting, Ms Meijer says a representative from Carers Victoria will speak. She says members are particularly looking forward to this event next month. “If some of the people are lacking self-confidence, there are plenty of us there to get their confidence back up. But there are a lot more people who could come, and many who could benefit from the support group.” The group meets at 10.30am at the Melton Community Health, corner of Yuille and High streets. ■ Details: 8745 0147

Time’s up for black spots Two notorious Melton roads will be remodelled thanks to federal ‘black spot’ funding. Safety upgrades along Boundary and Sinclairs roads will be carried out after Melton council secured $2.165 million of road safety funding. There have been 13 crashes on TOTAL these roads in the past five years, four ofTOTAL them VALUE serious. VALUE $196 About $1.5 million will be used to $196 extend culverts and install guardrails, driveable end wall culverts and reflective guide posts on Boundary Road, from Mt Atkinson Road to the Dukelows Road intersection at Mt Cottrell. And $670,000 has been allocated to install guard fences and driveable end walls on Sinclairs Road, from Taylors to Neale roads, at Rockbank. There have been four crashes – one serious – on this section of Sinclairs Road, and nine crashes – three serious – on Boundary Road, from the Mt Atkinson to Dukelows roads intersection. Melton mayor Sophie Ramsey thanked the federal government for the “significant” funding. “These works will go a long way in making these locations safer for our community,” Cr Ramsey said. Detailed design is under way, and tenders for construction will be advertised later this year. Works are due to start in March and be finished by May \ 2016. \\

Come relax with a drink by the fire or enjoy the view of the valley

Right up to par With a restaurant that offers views of the course and the Lerderderg Valley, Bacchus Marsh Golf Club is really something special. The club’s former bistro is now a restaurant and, with a total change to its menu, now offers gastropub food including weekly burger specials and seafood baskets incorporating both fresh and fried seafood. New manager Josh Landells is also changing the way patrons are served. “We’ve introduced full table service to phase out congestion at our bar,” he says. Using only local produce, head chef Sharon Reale is excited about the new menu. “I’ve been working at the club for years and I look forward to exploring the new menu options,” she says. With lots of dishes to choose from, there’s something for everyone. For entree, the traditional bruschetta – lightly toasted bread slices topped with finely diced tomatoes, basil and Spanish onion and finished with a light drizzling of olive oil – or a trio of dips are both crowd pleasers. For the mains, a generous serving of barbecued pork ribs with salad, wedges and sour cream are a must. And whether it be pulled pork, Moroccan lamb or spicy chicken, the weekly burger specials are also a hit. Then you can finish the evening with either homemade sticky date pudding or a mini-pavlova. Bacchus Marsh Golf Club also offers function spaces. “We hold functions inside and we’re working on developing a space outside,” Mr Landells says. Over the coming summer season, the club will showcase live bands and other activities. “The Sunday sessions will be suitable for the entire family,” Mr Landells says. “There will be things for the kids to do and a chance for mum and dad to relax.” Bacchus Marsh Golf Club, Links Road, Bacchus Marsh. Opens 10am10.30pm Monday-Thursday, 10am-midnight Friday-Saturday, 10.30am10.30pm Sunday, and noon-9pm on public holidays. Inquiries: 5367 2226 or www.bacchusmarshgolfclub.com.au

Large windows and a tasteful neutral toned interior give this property broad appeal. Two of the four bedrooms have built-in wardrobes; the main has a huge walk-in wardrobe and en suite. A spacious L-shaped lounge room near the front entrance provides a versatile living space. The adjoining family-meals area has polished floorboards, and the kitchen is kitted with a stainless-steel underbench oven, gas cooktop, breakfast bar, stone benchtops and a feature-tile splashback. Ducted cooling, gas heating and ceiling fans help combat seasonal extremes. The large carport parks two vehicles, and there’s rear access to the large backyard, complete with established gardens, a large entertainment area and garden shed. Tucked away in one of Brookfield’s many secluded courts, this location offers easy access to Woodgrove shopping centre, schools, parks and Melton train station.

This brand-new house with its clean white interior exemplifies contemporary living. Finished in polished white floor tiles, the large family-meals zone has ample room for the whole family; another living area at the rear provides even more. The kitchen has a stainless-steel dishwasher, underbench oven, gas cooktop, large pantry and breakfast bar. Dark grey benchtops and a matching splashback provide great contrast to the modern white cabinetry. The main bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe and en suite; the other two bedrooms have built-in wardrobes, with a children’s retreat/study nestled between. Extras are ducted heating, split-system and a lock-up double garage with internal access. An alfresco entertainment area at the rear is ideal for entertaining, and overlooks the low-maintenance backyard. Part of the newly emerging Atherstone estate, this property is within a short drive of schools, shops and Melton train station.

These lead past the carpeted lounge room into a large family-meals zone and kitchen with 900-millimetre stainless-steel cooker, dishwasher and breakfast island with a built-in wine rack. Three of the four bedrooms have built-in wardrobes. The large main has walk-in wardrobe and en suite with double-basin vanity unit and spa. An open study/children’s retreat is nearby.

BACCHUS MARSH 263 Main Street, 3340 First National Rayner: 5366 3611 Price: $845,000 Hidden behind a picket fence and dense planting across the double-fronted block, this circa 1967 clinker-brick residence comes with about 1.21 hectares of land which, considering it’s a mere 700 metres from the town centre, makes it a rather remarkable mid-town oasis. The back half of the block is a vast stretch of grassland dotted with natives and exotics.It’s essentially a blank canvas for imaginative use – perhaps run a pony, plant an orchard (the soil is market-garden fertile), lay a mini-motorbike track, build a chook hotel, get into vegies. And note the

property’s 3.9 megalitre water right. The front section of the block begins with a cobbled driveway, edged with bulbs and agapanthus, that wends past lawns planted with cypress species and a rose garden, then loops around to the back – with a double carport and a trailer shelter on the way. The gardens out back, clearly a labour of love, include a wooden bridge over a large water lily-planted pond. This lovely spot in which to contemplate or share a wine or morning cuppa has a Japanese ambience with its maples, camellias and dense,

multi-hued foliage. The house, with its ’60s look intact, has a carpeted entry foyer, on the right of which is an L-shaped lounge-dining room with plenty of windows and a wood heater set in a stretch of bricks with mantelpiece. On the left, a hallway heads to the three bedrooms (each with wardrobes and ceiling fan) and a separate shower room with spa bathroom next door. Joining with the dining zone, the kitchen and meals area – the kitchen with electric cooktop, wall oven and pantry cupboard – has a big window that brings the outside

in. The laundry with enclosed toilet is next door. The house is linked via a covered pergola to a freestanding unit with living room, small kitchen and a bedroom with en suite/laundry combination. Whether a teen retreat, guest quarters or rental option, this is a great addition to the property. Ducted heating and cooling, hardwood floorboards under existing carpet, a hedge-rimmed dog enclosure, four vegie planters and fruit trees are other features.

NEW HOMES AND LAND – Don’t wait, insulate To keep your home warm this winter, and reduce heating costs, don’t overlook the importance and benefits of insulation. Archicentre Victorian state manager David Hallett says good quality insulation installed by a professional, reputable installer is the most important step people can take in saving energy costs and creating a comfortable environment in their homes. “Ceiling insulation, wall insulation and floor insulation is paramount to the energy-wise home experience,” he said. “Lining the roof, walls and floor can reduce heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer. “People now apprehensive about ceiling insulation shouldn’t be … they should just use a reputable installer and make themselves aware of the quality Australian-made products which can be safely used when installed properly.” Mr Hallett said it was important, both environmentally and economically, to restore community confidence in the insulation industry, installers and Australian manufacturers. Some insulation points to consider when buying or building a home are the orientation of the home to maximise the northern aspect – where exposure to the sun is best controlled. Eaves and pergolas can be precisely designed to block the summer sun and still allow the desirable winter sunshine to penetrate.

North-side deciduous trees that shade the house during summer will allow the sun prime access once they have lost their leaves in winter. Materials with a high thermal mass, such as stone, brick or rammed earth, take a long time to heat up and a long time to cool down. With their high thermal mass, concrete slabs can reap huge benefits from prolonged exposure

‘‘

Lining the roof, walls and floor can reduce - David Hallett heat loss

’’

to the winter sun, radiating warmth at night when it’s needed most. Glass is a very poor insulator, so for an energy efficient design, locate windows away from the western sun, and in some areas, the eastern sun. Less grand ways to insulate include placing tight-fitting pelmets over curtains and close-fitting blinds to trap air and create a layer of insulation to reduce heat loss on winter nights. Door and window seals can help, as can reversible ceiling fans that can push warm air down in winter.

Using a reputable insulation installer is important. (Supplied)

51 MELTON & MOORABOOL STAR WEEKLY \ AUGUST 11, 2015

SPORT Panthers take two steps forward in club rebuild From the outside, two wins for the season may not look like much but for Melton South president Peter Earl it offers plenty of encouraging signs. The Panthers have almost completed the first year of their rebuilding phase after a number of experienced players departed the Ballarat Football League club at the end of last season. The initial stages of the rebuild were marred by injuries to key players, with Craig Searle, Angus Storey and Frank Holzer restricted to watching from the sidelines for portions of the year. But with one of the youngest lists in the competition, the Panthers fought on bravely despite being out of their weight division. Melton South is ninth on the ladder, one place higher than last year. “In some of the games we have lost, we’ve been right in it for three quarters,” Earl said. “I assume that next year we will finish three or four games higher than this year. That will create a bit more of a buzz around the place and we can continue to grow naturally like that. “It will only take us to get a couple of those big guys back and then the younger guys get a little bit more competitive.”

Earl placed a lot of the credit for Melton South’s fighting qualities on the shoulders of first-year coach Mark Pedersen. Pedersen joined Melton South from VFL club Coburg and has tried to instill a new level of professionalism at the Panthers. “Mark is really enjoying his role and the boys really respect him,” Earl said. “He gives them a spray when they need it but he also looks a lot at the positives and what we’re improving on. “Mark knew where we were financially, where we were with players and that we were basically going through a rebuilding structure. “Most sides go through it at some stage and he has done a great job guiding it.” Earl confirmed the Panthers would welcome back injured forward Blake Henderson next season. An off-season recruit, he has missed the entire season with injury. Following on from a bye last week, the Panthers take on top-of-the-ladder Redan on Saturday and are hosting their past players’ day to coincide with the fixture. Earl encouraged all the club’s past players to attend the event at the club’s home ground. Liam Twomey

Cobras see a ray of light By Liam Twomey Finally there’s light at the end of the tunnel for Bacchus Marsh. After a brutal July and early August, the Cobras will take on a non-finals bound side this weekend when they play Ballarat Football League struggler Ballarat. The contest should provide some well-earned respite for Bacchus Marsh after matches against four premiership contenders in the space of five weeks. Bacchus Marsh began the run in fifth place on the ladder. But losses against Redan, North Ballarat City, Darley and East Point have dropped the club to sixth. But far from being deterred by the results, Bacchus Marsh football manager Steve Denham said that taking on the cream of the crop was a great learning experience for the club’s young side. “We can only get better by playing those top sides,” he said. “We know where the competition is at and we know where we have to get to. We need to try to bridge that gap over the next couple of weeks and over summer. “I think when people say Bacchus Marsh is on the way up, it’s said after a couple of wins that aren’t against top sides. It’s a massive difference playing against those top teams.” While Bacchus Marsh failed against the league leaders, the Cobras did secure one vital win during the horror stretch, toppling seventh-placed Sunbury to keep the club’s finals hopes on track. Denham said the ability to put the disappointment of a number of big losses behind them showed great maturity in the playing group. “Over the last 10 to 12 years, we have really been a bottom-three side,” he said. “Before, we might have had one or two wins a year; now we have five, six or seven which really helps their confidence and they know they have what it takes. As we progress further and further and the boys continue to develop, we will only get better.” To secure a finals place, the Cobras need to beat second-last Ballarat this weekend then bottom-of-the-table Sebastopol in the final round of the home-and-away season. Tim Hughes and his Bacchus Marsh teammates face a must-win clash this week. (Darren Howe) 52 MELTON & MOORABOOL STAR WEEKLY \ AUGUST 11, 2015

Devils tighten grip on third place Darley continued its charge towards the Ballarat Football League finals with a 75-point win against Sebastopol on Saturday. The Devils completely controlled the contest from the outset, racing to a 37-point lead at half-time. With the likes of Dane Grenfell, Steven Kennedy and Rhys Ellis firing on the Darley forward line, the dominance continued after the main break. The Devils slammed on nine second-half goals to secure a 19.10 (124) - 8.1 (49) win. Grenfell finished the match with six goals, and was clearly the leading forward on the ground. He looks to be hitting top form at the right time of year, booting 13 goals in the past two weeks. Anthony Chiu and Shane O’Bree were also impressive for the Devils, while Rowan Marshall was named best-on-ground for Sebastopol. The win maintains Darley’s hold over third place on the BFL ladder. The side is one game ahead of the fourth-placed Lake Wendouree, and will take on the fifth-placed East Point this week. In other weekend results, Melton’s poor 2015 season continued with a 38-point defeat at the hands of Ballarat. The Bloods started the match well and held a 10-point lead at quarter-time, which extended to 17 points at half-time. However, a late fade-out cost Melton dearly. Ballarat kicked 12 second-half goals in a dynamic, attacking performance. The Swans also took control at the defensive end, allowing the Bloods to score just two majors. The 17.14 (116) - 11.12 (78) loss is Melton’s 10th of the year, putting the Bloods in eighth spot on the BFL ladder. They take on the second-placed North Ballarat City this weekend. Liam Twomey

Jet’s Knight in shining armour By Lance Jenkinson Lachlan Knight has been a travelling road show this football season. The young gun has played for the Western Jets in the TAC Cup as well as featuring for the Yarraville-Seddon Eagles in the Western Region Football League and Williamstown in the AFL Victoria development league. Knight has been particularly thrilled to be able to represent his home club, Yarraville-Seddon, at senior level. The 19-year-old got his start at the Seddon Hawks before their merger with the Yarraville Eagles and has always felt loyal about the club. Even when he had the chance to go to division 1 junior clubs, he stayed at Seddon and battled away in often struggling teams. “Loyalty is more important to me,” Knight said. “The club has done a lot for me and I’m thankful of the opportunities it gave me from an early age.” Just the chance to pull on the boots this season has been welcomed by Knight. In the last practice game before the 2014 season, he suffered a serious shoulder injury that ended his season there and then. It was a bitter pill to swallow for Knight, who was in his top age TAC Cup season, the year that is often decisive in whether a player will be drafted as a teenager or have to go the long route to the AFL via the state leagues. Knight was lucky enough to be invited back to the Jets under a rule that permitted the club to bring back a 19-year-old under exceptional circumstances. Come back he did, fitter and stronger after a successful surgery and a strict adherence to his rehab regime. “I went to a really good surgeon, which obviously helps – my parents were straight on the front foot there,” Knight said. “I worked with the rehab team at the Jets and saw a

physio weekly and that really helped. I’ve had no impediments and I almost feel stronger, so it’s been a blessing in disguise.” Knight made a slow start to this season as he tried to get back to match fitness. It did not help his cause that his side was on the end of some heavy early season losses. But the longer the season has worn on and the more game time he enjoyed, the better Knight has got. Knight started his career at the Jets mainly as a rebounding defender but has moved into a midfield role this season. The Yarraville resident has relished the chance to throw his weight around at the coal face and is one of the side’s most forceful midfielders. It has been a tough season for the Jets, who sit bottom of the ladder with three games to go. They have been more competitive in recent times, losing their past two matches by just a kick. With it being such a young side with a large number of bottom-age players, Knight has taken on extra leadership responsibilities as one of the elder statesmen, which he thinks will help his football career going forward. “With the younger side, it makes it very important,” he said. “They’re all learning, they’re all developing their footy. “It’s very important that our leadership is up to scratch so they can learn and improve as footballers and people. “Looking at last year, the added responsibility of being in the leadership group sort of drove me to come to training every week despite missing all of last year with injury. “It really helped me develop, not only as a footballer but as a person.” Knight and the rest of the top-age Jets have three games left to leave an impression on the TAC Cup, starting with Saturday’s away clash with the Sandringham Dragons.

Burras get mojo back

Sport shorts RDFL

Kilmore finally got its first win of the Riddell District Football League season by defeating the Melton Centrals on Saturday. Having struggled all year, it looked like it would be business as usual for the Blues when the Centrals held a seven-point lead at the main break. But Kilmore produced some of its best football for the season in the second half, booting seven goals in grabbing an 11.7 (73) - 7.6 (48) win. On what was a tough day for his side, Liam Toohey fought hard for Centrals and Nathan Richardson booted three goals.

Finals have arrived early for Diggers Rest and Melton Centrals in the Riddell District Netball League. The local rivals will square off in a winnertakes-all bout this weekend with a place in the post-season on the line. When they met earlier in the year, Diggers Rest came out on top by two goals in a thrilling contest. After her team enjoyed a bye last week, Burras coach Amy Carroll said it was ready for the challenge. “They are a really strong team and won the premiership last year so we really respect them,” Carroll said. “I think we will just play our game and do what we can.” Diggers Rest endured a slow start to the season, having to face most of the top sides in the early rounds. But the Burras have rediscovered their best form in the past three weeks, defeating Wallan by 25 goals, Sunbury by 47 and Kilmore by 37. Having qualified for last year’s finals series in the final round of the season, the Burras know all about cutting it fine. Carroll is hoping history is about to repeat itself. “It’s hard starting the season with those really tough teams,” she said. “It would be nice to cruise your way into the season, but unfortunately we had the tough ones up first. “In terms of being more consistent over the season, we’re definitely better placed this year. “The last few games will be tough, but we’re prepared for that.” Saturday’s match is at McPherson Park from 1.30pm.

Melton Centrals were in top form in the Riddell District Netball League on Saturday, smashing Kilmore by 50 goals. The Centrals were led by 28 goals from Monika Dimovski, with Lauren Chalwell scoring 19. Goals proved a lot harder to come by for Kilmore, with none of its shooters able to put any scoreboard pressure. In other games, Riddell defeated Rupertswood, Lancefield got the better of Rockbank and Romsey smashed Sunbury.

BNL

Forty-one goals from Melton shooter Madelyn Gray wasn’t enough to get Melton over the line in its Ballarat Netball League clash with Ballarat. The Bloods lost 64-43. Melton trailed by five goals at half-time and it looked like a tight finish was in the offing. But a dominant attacking display from the Swans put the result beyond doubt. Melton is eighth on the BNL ladder. Courtney Sherwell and her Diggers Rest teammates face a must-win match this week. (Shawn Smits)

Thorougbreds into grand final By Liam Twomey Melton is through to the men’s Big V basketball division 1 grand final after a brilliant performance against Shepparton on Saturday night. Despite being forced to travel for the away contest, the Thoroughbreds were at their brilliant best from the opening moments, controlling both ends of the court on the way to the 85-76 win over the conference premiers. Melton coach Julie McCallum was full of praise for the way her side approached the match. “It was awesome,” she said. “We put together almost four quarters. “Our defensive effort was really good and we were able to shut them down. They started to implode. “We had spoken a lot about our defensive effort and intensity and just working that little bit harder to get over the screens and fight for the ball. “We really wanted it more than we did the last time we played them. The boys were pumped, they really came to play.” Some outstanding shooting highlighted the opening term, with Melton making almost all their possessions count on the scoreboard. The Thoroughbreds were converting at almost 50 per cent from the field and knocked down four three-pointers to push the lead to nine points. There was no letting up on the pressure from there as Melton continued to do the little things right to extend the margin to 15.

With the result beyond doubt, Shepparton was able to add some respect to the scoreboard, winning the final term by six points. But it mattered little for Melton. Shane Moroney was outstanding for the Thoroughbreds, scoring 25 points off the bench while Jeff Crowe scored 19. “Shane was fantastic,” McCallum said. “Every week he comes off the bench and he’s really too hard to guard. He did that again. He just went hard. “Jeff did well, Cameron [McCallum] did well in the middle and Ivan [Harris] was good as well. It was an all-round team effort.” Melton will now turn its attention to a best-of -three match grand final series against Latrobe City, which booked its place with a 22-point win over Geelong. McCallum said there were a lot of similarities between her side and Latrobe. “Latrobe is going to be really tough,” she said. “Similar to us, they go deep. They have six or seven players who can really play. “We can’t just focus on one or two. We have to go back and look at tapes and spend the week preparing for how we are going to shut down their key players. “It will be really important that we get on top of them.” The first match of the series will take place at Latrobe this week, with the rest of the series to be played at Melton. Shane Moroney top-scored for Melton on Saturday night. (Shawn Smits)
