The way we were Wyndham’s population has now overtaken that of the Greater Geelong municipality, making it the second-largest city in the state, but back in the 1920s the shire of Werribee was home to only a few thousand people. According to the Victorian Municipal Directory and Gazetteer: Melbourne of 1927, about 7500 people lived in the 1927 shire area during the early ‘20s. Nowadays, Wyndham’s population has topped 250,186 residents, according to population experts .id Consulting. Watton Street of the 1920s is a far cry from the bustling main street it is today. Imagine ambling down the street in your horse-drawn buggy or T-model Ford. Businesses at the time included Douglas’ Cafe, Lowman’s Fruit and Confectionery Mart or L.J. Jelliss’ paint store. You can take a walk down memory lane and get a snapshot of Wyndham’s past thanks to the State Library Victoria online digital archive. It features hundreds of historical photos of Werribee and Point Cook. Watton Street, Werribee, circa 1920-1954. (Rose Stereograph Co. State Library Victoria, www.slv.vic.gov.au)

Wyndham crime rates fall By Alesha Capone The number of crimes reported to police in Wyndham has dropped to a three-year low, according to the latest data from the Crime Statistics Agency. Statistics released last week reveal that police responded to a total of 14,131 crimes in Wyndham last year – 8.78 per cent lower than the 15,373 crimes recorded in Wyndham during 2016. In 2015, 14,331 incidents were reported to police. Thefts, down from 5961 offences to 4632 offences; burglaries and break and enters (1867 to 1472); property damage (1151 offences to
1137); arson (130 offences to 83); and drug crimes (673 to 650 offences) all decreased in Wyndham between 2016 and last year. Crimes which rose in Wyndham for the same period included assaults and related offences (up from 1179 offences to 1305 offences), sexual crimes (from 244 to 329) and weapons and explosives crimes (from 379 offences to 395). Wyndham’s Acting Police Inspector Jason Templar said the crime rate represented an equivalent of 6151 crimes for every 100,000 residents. In comparison, the Maribyrnong municipality recorded the equivalent of 9133
infocus T U R N T O
crimes for every 100,000 residents, Brimbank was 8437 crimes for every 100,000 residents, Melton 7420 crimes for every 100,000 residents and Hobsons Bay 6437 crimes for every 100,000 residents. Acting Inspector Templar described the latest statistics as an “outstanding” result for Wyndham. “It’s the safest municipality to live in, in the western suburbs,” he said. “The members at Werribee and Wyndham North stations are dedicated to reducing crime in the area and have worked tirelessly to drive crime down across the past 12 months. “I’m very happy with the result.”

Acting Inspector Templar said Wyndham police had contributed to the drop in crime by adopting a “more pro-active approach” to policing. He said this involved officers patrolling in high-risk locations such as CBDs, shopping centres and train stations. “It’s more about focusing on identifying areas where we need to have a visible presence to deter crime, rather than just responding to crime,” he said. He said police were also involving the community in policing, through regular pop-up police station events and Coffee With a Cop sessions.

Carjack attempts prompt warning By Alesha Capone Police are advising motorists to keep their car doors locked at all times after receiving reports of three attempted carjackings in Wyndham. A Victoria Police spokeswoman said the first incident occurred on February 28 about 9.45pm. “It is believed two women were in their vehicle, exiting a fast food drive-through, when a man approached the vehicle and attempted to open the passenger door,” she said.
The man did not gain entry to the vehicle and the victims drove away before reporting the matter to police. The second incident occurred on March 2, also about 9.45pm. “It is believed a woman was driving along Dohertys Road when a vehicle collided with her from behind,” the police spokeswoman said. “The victim was then approached by two men who demanded she get out of the car. The victim drove off.” The spokeswoman said police had also
received a report that two men, aged in their 20s, were travelling in a vehicle along Sayers Road when they stopped at a set of traffic lights. A group of five males surrounded the vehicle and began tapping on its windows and body before the men drove away. The spokeswoman said the exact date of this offence was unknown, but police believe it occurred about 10pm. She said police did not know whether the incidents were linked. The unknown males involved in all three
incidents were described as being of African appearance. Wyndham police last week said offenders attempting to open vehicle doors while people were seated inside, was a crime trend they had identified. Police said it was also occurring at traffic lights and carparks in areas around Derrimut Road and Heaths Road, Hoppers Crossing. Police patrols have been increased at selected locations in response to the reports. Crime Stoppers: 1800 333 000.
Fire damages centre shops An electrical fire has been blamed for the closure of two clothing stores at Pacific Werribee Shopping Centre last week. Pacific Werribee security and CFA firefighters responded to a small electrical fire in the Cotton On store about 10pm on Saturday, March 10. Centre manager Patricia Gardiner said the Cotton On store and neighbouring Lorna Jane tenancy received water damage, resulting in both stores being closed to the public early last week. Ms Gardiner said Lorna Jane re-opened its doors last Tuesday. “Cotton On … will re-open in the coming weeks,” she said. A third Pacific Werribee premises, Billy’s Place, remains closed until further notice. “The Billy’s Place tenancy closure is a commercial matter,” Ms Gardiner said. Charlene Macaulay

Dreams come true for young musos music Sue Butcher, who has worked hard over the past two years to make the tour happen. “I’ve always wanted to do this, ever since I started as a graduate teacher 25 years ago,” Ms Butcher said. “The kids that we have here now, they’re really good players and they’re really into music … I thought, now’s the time.” Wyndham Central year 9 student Holly Darcy said students had to audition twice before making the cut. “It was long and tiring – there were so many rehearsals for it,” she said. “It was so good to
know that we finally got through. It’s going to be a once-in-a-lifetime experience.” Band captain Roberto Lay, also from Wyndham Central, said the Disneyland show would be part of a jam-packed week-long schedule that would also include performances at Knotts Berry Farm and on the USS Midway aircraft carrier in San Diego, as well as workshops and sightseeing at Universal Studios and Hollywood.

Council ‘bail-out’ not an option By Charlene Macaulay Wyndham council has put developers on notice that it will not take over the running of big-scale attractions in new estates once the going gets tough. Councillor Mia Shaw said she was increasingly concerned by the emerging problem of developers building grandiose community assets and then handballing the management to an owners’ corporation. “If you look around ours and other growth areas, it seems large developers are building
regional-scale, or non-local-scale assets, purely to drive up sales in their estate. Some might say this is fair and is only market forces at play, but stand back and think about the consequences,� she said. “Think about the pirate ship incident [in Point Cook], and now this one [at Ecoville]. “Are the competitive urges of developers in our growth areas leading to legacy assets that are poorly designed and unsafe? “I think there is evidence this might be the case, and perhaps we need to be having discussions with the Victorian Planning
Authority about this emerging trend in the future.� Cr Shaw’s comments arose during a recent debate where the council rebuffed a request from the Ecoville owners corporation to take ownership of Ecoville Park and fix up the site following more than 18 months of vandalism, crime and anti-social behaviour. Fellow councillor Kim McAliney, who was one of the councillors to vote against the proposal, said that accepting the offer would have set a dangerous precedent “for similar owner corporations who may get the
impression that council will bail them out when they no longer have the interest in taking care of their common propertyâ€?. On the flip side, councillor Josh Gilligan said an exception should have been made where Ecoville was concerned. “What about Jubilee, where they’re going to build an aquatics centre ‌ are we saying if that goes belly-up, we’re going to leave that community completely on their own?â€? he said. “Sometimes, you do have to bail out situations such as this one. It is in the community interest to do so.â€?
Hiking in the thrill zone A not-for-profit hiking and adventure group that encourages women to be body-positive is making great strides in Wyndham. Barwon Heads resident Richelle Olsen founded Escaping Your Comfort Zone in 2016, by creating a Facebook event for plus-size women who wanted to go hiking. Last year, she received a Sports Innovation grant from VicHealth to help develop the group, which now has about 800 members across Melbourne and Geelong. “I’ve always been an adventurer,� Ms Olsen said. “I’ve done aerospace camp, cycled from Canada to Mexico, which took me 5000 kilometres, and my size has never stopped me. “You want to be a cheerleader to tell people, ‘Yes, you can do it!’ because there are so many other messages in the world.� Last year, more than 250 hiking and activity events organised by Escaping Your Comfort Zone’s 21 volunteer leaders took place in
Victoria. One of the volunteer leaders, Kylie Harris of Werribee, described the group as “amazing�. “It’s just had a positive effect on my life – making new friends, meeting like-minded women and seeing new places, doing things I probably wouldn’t have otherwise done,� she said. The two women said that although the group was initially aimed at plus-size women, it was open to all women. Ms Olsen said that most of the group’s hikes were ideal for beginners. She said some hikes were pram-friendly and that children who could walk for 90 minutes were welcome to accompany their mothers.

Wollahra school a step closer By Charlene Macaulay A new primary school in Wyndham Vale is one step closer to fruition. The state government last week announced a $236.8 million funding package to buy land for 14 new schools across the state, including the Wollahra Primary School slated for Wyndham Vale. Werribee MP Tim Pallas said the funding would buy land for schools across Melbourne’s booming inner and outer suburbs including Rockbank, Deanside, Mickleham, Cobblebank,
Seddon, Clyde North, Wollert, Cranbourne West and Pakenham. School sites were identified following analysis of demographics and enrolment data at existing schools. Mr Pallas said land for Wollahra Primary School is likely to be acquired by February next year, with the final location yet to be determined. “The Victorian School Building Authority will then manage the design and construction,” he said. “It’s no secret that Werribee is booming, and we have got on with the job of delivering

the new schools local families are crying out for. When it opens, Wollahra Primary School will be a great local school that the whole community can be proud of. “This investment will break the cycle of short-term planning for new schools and give families the certainty they need that their kids
can attend a great local government school where they can get a great education – no matter where they live.” Wollahra Primary School was one of three new Wyndham schools that received funding as part of the 2017-18 budget, with more than $13.8 million apiece allocated to the construction of a new Sanctuary Lakes South P-9 school and the Truganina East P-9 school. The state government will start running community consultation on the project in coming weeks. From March 28, go to engage. vic.gov.au to have your say.
Weerama all smiles The Weerama festival celebrated its 40th anniversary with a colourful and vibrant parade along Watton Street on Sunday. Festival president Marcel Mahfoud said that despite wind and rain being forecast, plenty of people turned out for the street festival. “Everyone was all smiles and you can tell the people in the parade really value that part of the festival,” he said. DanceMax Studios students led the parade in sparkling pink costumes. They were one of several local dance schools to join in. Mr Mahfoud said he received great comments about the young performers at Weerama. “Some of the feedback about the youth talent in the area was amazing, including the all-girl rockband Cash,” he said. Mr Mahfoud described several of the parade floats as “fantastic”, including one created by the Werribee Garden Club.
The garden club float, which was themed “Fun in the garden with Alice”, was reminiscent of a scene from Alice in Wonderland. The float was dedicated to the memory of Pam Strong, a life member of the garden club who died last year. Mr Mahfoud said Pam had served on the Weerama committee as treasurer. “The garden club’s float was really special, both for us and the garden club,” he said. Volunteers in this year’s Weerama festival included personnel from two Wyndham CFA brigades. Alesha Capone

Rebirth of a sewer line
Funding boost helps families in need
By Charlene Macaulay Meet the men tasked with turning a disused open sewer line into a diverse parkland. Taewook Cha and Jon Shinkfield have been busy developing the next stage of the Greening the Pipeline project, an initiative by Melbourne Water, Wyndham council, City West Water and VicRoads that aims to convert 27 kilometres of a heritage-listed sewer line into parkland that spans multiple suburbs. The sewer line, constructed in the 1890s, runs from the old pumping station at Spotswood to the western treatment plant at Werribee. The project was kicked off with a 100-metre pilot park at Williams Landing. Mr Cha and Mr Shinkfield are developing a master plan for a 3.7-kilometre stretch spanning Williams Landing, Hoppers Crossing, Truganina and Laverton North. Mr Cha, an architect, said the project had much in common with another on which he worked, the New York High Line, a 3.75-kilometre elevated park and walkway created on a former New York Central Railroad spur. “[The High Line] started with the original industrial artefact, and the main idea was to keep it and then build up from it,” he said. “The most interesting, beautiful thing about it is the structure itself, and it’s about to be reborn into something completely different, but equally important.” Mr Shinkfield said the idea was to repurpose the existing sewer line, rather than covering it up. “It’s the most fantastic piece of industrial heritage that allows for play, for education, for a variety of pop-up uses and opportunities, community places or events,” he said.

Help is on the way for Wyndham families facing disadvantages – thanks to new funding from the state government. Werribee MP Tim Pallas last week announced a $22.1 million expansion of the Supported Playgroups program, which aims to help parents experiencing family violence, breakdown or social isolation to improve their skills and gain more confidence in looking after their children Mr Pallas said the additional funding meant that about 416 families would be able to access a supported playgroup in Werribee. The playgroups are run by trained facilitators, who provide specialist training advice to parents and referrals to services. Earlier this month, Consumer Affairs Minister Marlene Kairouz visited Werribee to announce government funding for six full-time financial counsellors for the area. The government has committed more than $715,000 for five general financial counsellors and one specialist family violence financial counsellor. They will work at Anglicare Victoria in Werribee. People who need to access the service can call the Werribee Financial Counselling team on 9731 2500. National Debt Helpline on 1800 007 007 or see moneyhelp.org.au for advice. Alesha Capone

I
t pains me to do this, but I have to raise the gender equality issue once again. I heard on radio this week that we are not employing some essential service people because they are not women and that until the gender balance is equal, recruitment is being compromised. An AFL club has launched a gender equality action plan. Part of its charter is to achieve a minimum 40 per cent female representation across the club and more than 40 per cent females across its men’s and women’s teams. I am not Einstein but even I know 40 per cent is not an equal share. I wish them luck getting 40 per cent female members into their men’s teams, and I would hope they are shooting for 100 per cent in the actual women’s teams. You can make figures tell any story you like, as our politicians prove on a daily basis. Like their figures, these ones don’t add up. Personally, I think we are missing several other areas where gender equality (GE) really needs to be addressed immediately. I have observed we do not have GE in stupidity and rudeness. Our ratio is also sadly lopsided in
driving, both good and bad. There are clearly more stupid men, more rude women and – as for driving – women are overwhelmingly the worst, according to my research. Yes, I am being frivolous – because this agenda is demeaning to the very people it is supposedly supporting. How do the people in power not see this? This needing to be seen to be doing the politically correct thing is stopping us from nurturing and developing the skills and talents of both sexes. At least we have got our stuff-ups in gender-equal proportions. I totally support equality in the way we treat people, the amount we pay them and the opportunities we create. Let us treat each applicant for a position equally then decide based on merit who gets the position. Seems pretty simple, doesn’t it? Hopefully the days of women having to be better, rather than as good as, are behind us. There is no doubt women do many things better than men, especially when they do it their way, and not the way the blokes do it. Be yourself, that’s what makes you different. ■

Office development snapped up By Alesha Capone and Charlene Macaulay The first strata office development in the Williams Landing town centre has sold out in less than seven months. Cedar Woods Properties Limited last week announced that the 47 office suites and a ground-floor medical centre at 111 Overton Road had been been snapped up by buyers in just under seven months. Cedar Woods chief operating officer Patrick Archer said construction of the five-storey
development was due to start soon, with completion scheduled for March next year. “With the infrastructure upgrades, greater levels of amenity and established communities, Williams Landing is now on the radar for commercial buyers who are looking for new opportunities outside of the Melbourne CBD market,” Mr Archer said. He said that most of the businesses destined for 111 Overton Road would be information technology and professional services outfits, including accountancy firms, financial planners, lawyers and architectural designers.
A selling agent for the building, Matthew Romanin from Knight Frank, said the strata offices’ proximity to the Williams Landing train station made it an attractive option for buyers. “Compared to the Melbourne CBD, Williams Landing is far more affordable and still offers a vast array of amenity such as the shopping centre, connectivity to Williams Landing train station and other public transport options,” he said. Cedar Woods is in the planning stages of its next strata office building, 101 Overton Road.
Last year, Target Australia announced that it would relocate its national headquarters from Geelong to Williams Landing. Target has signed an agreement to lease for 10 years a 12,860-square-metre office building, comprising eight levels, next to the Williams Landing train station. The building, which will house 850 employees, will cost $37 million to build. Cedar Woods sold the development to Centuria Property Funds for $58.23 million. Construction of the Target building is due to finish later this year.

and achieve at a high level, it highlights the ‘I can do it’ attitude for all participants,” Ms Jenner said. “Kids don’t have to be super athletes to achieve success in the sport of tenpin bowling.” At the end of the 10-week program, each child is presented with a bowling ball. Participants choose the colour of the ball and coaches advise them on a ball weight. The ball is custom drilled to fit each child’s hand span. Youngsters who compete in the 10 for 10 program can progress into a bumper or junior league. The WYNCITY Bowl and Entertainment Centre is at 36 Wallace Avenue, Point Cook.

Point Cook school design unveiled By Charlene Macaulay
Work will now begin on creating detailed architectural designs and a master plan for the school. Point Cook South Senior Secondary College is an interim name that is likely to be changed before the school opens its doors. Ms Hennessy said that once open, the school would accommodate 1100 students in years 10 to 12. “The design incorporates community feedback and the latest in architecture techniques to create a great new local school that families can be proud of,” she said. But Point Cook parent Caryn Auld has questioned the timeline for the project.
This is your first look at a new Point Cook senior campus catering for years 10 to 12. Altona MP Jill Hennessy last week unveiled initial designs for Point Cook South Senior Secondary College that include a three-storey building with performing arts and physical education facilities, two mixed-use basketball/ netball courts and a sports oval. Star Weekly understands the state government has faced challenges in acquiring a site for the school, but is finalising arrangements for compulsory acquisition of a parcel of land.

Ms Auld, who has one child in grade 6 and another in year 7, said Labor had first promised this school in the lead-up to the 2014 state
election. She was disappointed to find that the original completion date of 2020 listed on the Victorian School Building Authority website had been changed to “to be confirmed”. “I am left to wonder what the point of conducting a community engagement evening in 2017 was if no land has been acquired and no proposed construction date forth coming,” Ms Auld wrote in an email sent to Ms Hennessy, Education Minister James Merlino and Premier Daniel Andrews last week. “With many prep–9 schools at capacity … where do you expect all these children to go for their senior school education?”
The drums beat for diversity Tarneit Senior College celebrated diversity and harmony on Monday. Students and staff staged an event for Cultural Diversity Week, thanks to a National Youth Week grant. Performers from Cultural Infusion, including African dancers and drummers and Bollywood performers, worked with students to create works showcasing their identities and backgrounds. Students will celebrate Harmony Day later this week, expressing their pride in the school community’s cultural diversity.

Council to boycott pokie venues By Alesha Capone Wyndham council staff will be forbidden from organising council events and social outings at venues with poker machines, under a tough new draft policy. Last week the council released the proposed Wyndham Gambling Harm Minimisation Policy and Action Plan 2018-2022 for public consultation. If the council adopts the policy unchanged, it will “explicitly prohibit” staff holding events, activities, programs and social outings in
venues that have electronic gaming machines (EGMs). There are seven hotels and six clubs in Wyndham which have poker machines, with a total of 893 EGMs between them. The council’s draft policy also proposes banning access to online gambling at council-owned internet access points. The chair of the council’s Gambling Reference Advocacy group, Cr Josh Gilligan, said in the 2016-17 financial year, Wyndham’s pokies earned a total of $97.8 million, the seventh-highest earnings among municipalities
in the Melbourne metropolitan area (Brimbank topped the state with $134 million). “This is a problem that needs a strong commitment to drive change, which is exactly why council has developed this policy and action plan,” Cr Gilligan said. “We’re calling for reform … including mandatory pre-commitment measures and $1 maximum bets, the removal of machine features which are misleading and addictive and a reduction in … venue operating hours.” Cr Gilligan said as well, the council would not support any applications for EGMs to
be installed at venues on council-owned or managed land. Figures from the Victorian Commission for Gambling and Liquor Regulation show that in 2016-17, each poker machine in Wyndham earned an average of $599 per adult resident. The average loss for Melbourne metropolitan area was $562 per adult. The Gambling Harm Minimisation Policy and Action Plan 2018-22 will be open for public consultation until Wednesday, April 4.

Have a jab at cat care Cat and kitten owners in Wyndham are being urged to vaccinate their pets against the feline panleukopenia virus. Dr Thurid Johnstone, a lecturer in small animal medicine and specialist veterinarian at the University of Melbourne U-Vet Werribee Animal Hospital, said the illness (also known as feline parvovirus) was highly contagious. Last month, the RSPCA Victoria and Victorian division of the Australian Veterinary Association issued a warning about the virus, after it was detected in two stray kittens found in the greater Melbourne metropolitan area. Dr Johnstone said it was important for cat owners to ensure their animals were vaccinated against the illness, which can affect a cat’s immune and gastrointestinal system. The disease can be fatal. She said symptoms of feline panleukopenia included vomiting and diarrhea. Cats with the disease could “become very sick, very quickly.”
She said that the vaccination provides excellent protection from the disease and most kittens could have it from six weeks of age, followed by boosters. Dr Johnstone said the disease could be spread through feaces, particles on a cat’s fur or if a cat licked a food bowl it shared with another cat. Humans could also unknowingly bring the virus into a home after coming into contact with particles on a surface, their clothes or shoes, she said. “This virus can survive up to 12 months in the environment and is very resistant to physical cleaning and many common household disinfectants” Dr Johnstone said. She said for this reason, vets recommended cats who only lived indoors should also be vaccinated for the illness. Alesha Capone

Call to give kids a chance By Charlene Macaulay Give them a chance. That’s the word from Hoppers Crossing foster carer Kerry Post, who has looked after 48 children in her 11 years in the role. Mrs Post said many people were scared to become carers because they fear they’ll be taking on difficult children. The reality, she says, couldn’t be further from the truth. “People think kids come in because they’ve got major issues. The kids don’t, it’s their families. “The kids are great … to go from family to family and they’ve got no idea what they’re walking into, and they’re all really, really well-adjusted kids. “They just need a chance, and a place to stay for a month or two or six before they can reunite with family.” Mrs Post and her husband, who have two children of their own, signed up to be foster carers when they saw an advertisment at their daughter’s primary school. “We had the room and I’ve always worked school hours for my kids so I’m there for them in the morning and afternoon, so why not?” The family has had two of her son’s friends with them for the past 18 months, and still take on emergency and respite cases. Sharon Tyrrell from Uniting Wyndham said as the population across the western suburbs has exploded, so has the need for foster care. “It is really important to do everything we can to place children and young people in the community where they live. “That’s where their friends are, where they go to school or kinder, and where they take part in activities like sport that can be crucial to helping them deal with their family issues.” Details: vt.uniting.org/fostercare

Court finds failure in cultural advice The Supreme Court has found that cultural advisers provided “negligent advice” to Wyndham council in 2010 during a roadworks project. The court ruled earlier this month in favour of a damages claim against Terra Culture, which was found to have breached its contract with the council. Justice Peter Vickery found that a cultural heritage expert, who was required to advise the council, failed to “exercise reasonable care, skill and diligence”. Between 2008 and 2010, the council planned, and partly began, construction of a sealed extension of McGrath Road, from Black Forest Road to Bulban Road, development of land to the east for a wetland and excavation to the west for a series of culverts. During this time, the council hired Terra Culture Pty Ltd to provide cultural heritage services in respect of the proposed works. The court found that Terra Culture was liable for advice it gave a council officer during a January, 2010, telephone call, in which the council was advised it did not need to prepare a cultural heritage management plan for a certain area of the works, despite indigenous artifacts having recently been found nearby. The council is awaiting the court’s decision on whether financial compensation will be awarded.

For Mick Jefford, footy is a continuing joy. (Joe Mastroianni)
Still kicking life goals Footy runs in Mick Jefford’s veins. The 61-year-old, who played for Braybrook Football Club in his younger years, joined the Werribee Masters Football Club 26 years ago because he missed the game – and hasn’t looked back since. “Once you play football, you miss it when you stop,” Mr Jefford said. “A club like this, you know everybody … you know more guys by their nicknames than you do by their real names. “It’s more the social aspect of it for the guys down here, I think. It helps you keep fit and you enjoy playing the game, but it’s more the social side of it.” Club secretary John Crennan said: “It’s a club where, once people are there, they stay around.”
Werribee Masters has more than 70 players aged 35 and above on its books. The club, which counts former Wyndham mayor Henry Barlow as one of its past players, is gearing up to celebrate its 35th anniversary with a reunion to coincide with the season opener. Mr Jefford said at least 100 past players – with some flying in from interstate – would come down to the home ground to see the club’s three teams in action. The Werribee Masters Football Club will host its 35th anniversary reunion on Saturday, April 7, from 1pm at Wyndham Vale Reserve, Honour Avenue, Wyndham Vale.

Cruel blow still haunts Porky By Goya Dmytryshchak Graeme “Porky” Brooke still hurts – but not physically. The first cousin of Australian boxing great Lionel Rose gets emotional when he talks about how his boxing dream ended. His story has been immortalised in Stolen Glory: The Tale of Porky Brooke, a film from Welcome Stranger Productions directed by Altona Meadows’ Aaron Ellis and produced by Lester Ellis jnr.
‘‘
It hurt a lot, the way I went out of boxing
’’
Aaron interviewed boxing royalty from Melbourne’s west for the film, including his uncle, Lester “Master Blaster” Ellis, and Williamstown’s Barry “Boy” Michael, who broke Porky’s unbeaten record. Porky, now 54 and living in Keilor Downs, is described in the film as a prodigy. He worshipped Rose and left school at 16 to follow him in to the ring. Porky had 18 straight wins before winning the Commonwealth lightweight title at Melbourne’s Festival Hall in 1984 aged 21. His battler parents, Graeme snr and Gwen, had put their Flemington house on the line to finance his bid for the Commonwealth title. Porky had a shot at becoming world champion when he was made to undergo non-compulsory medical tests that detected an irregularity. Speaking to Star Weekly at the Team Ellis Gym on a gritty Keilor East estate where he mentors young boxers, Porky said he believed he was targeted for testing because of a falling

“The boxing board made me go for a head scan, memory test and an EEG. Well, the head scans were good, memory perfect, but something small was showing on the EEG.” Porky went to court to fight to get his licence back. But he was delivered a knockout blow, barred from boxing at age 22.

“There’s a lot of politics in boxing,” Porky said. “It eats at me and it hurts, just what the boxing board did to me … I don’t want to swear.” Stolen Glory: The Tale of Porky Brooke will premiere at Yarraville’s Sun Theatre in May.

High-rise hotel wins big tick Werribee’s tallest development has been given the green light. Wyndham council earlier this month approved plans for a $49.5 million 12-storey hotel, education precinct and carpark development to be built on the corner of Synnot Street and Duncans Road. The high-rise development will include retail, cafe, lobby areas and carparking on the ground floor, carparking on levels one to five, an office and education centre on level six, more office space on level seven and a 150-room Holiday Inn hotel on levels nine to 11. The hotel, which is slated to open in 2020, will include an all-day restaurant and bar, gym, meeting facilities and a function room for up to 400 people. There will also be 362 carparking spaces on-site, 167 of which will be public. Once complete, the development is expected to generate 300 full-time equivalent jobs. The site – which is currently a 70-space carpark – is one of four carparks owned by Wyndham council that will be converted to high-rise complexes in coming years in a bid to rejuvenate the heart of Werribee. The council received 19 objections to the planned development, with concerns raised about the loss of carparking, over-development of the site, overshadowing and traffic congestion. Councillor Kim McAliney acknowledged that the building was four metres higher than the preferred height for that area, but said

she was confident the setbacks were not too close to surrounding buildings and that the development would not overshadow open space or nearby residents. Councillor John Gibbons said the development would be a game-changer for Werribee’s CBD. “This is a high-quality development that will set the scene for what can be achieved in a city centre,” he said. Wyndham city economy, innovation and liveability director Kate Roffey said the existing carpark was expected to close in the third quarter of 2018 to allow construction to begin. “To help accommodate for the loss of parking spaces during the construction of the Gateway catalyst site, council has created 329 extra parking spaces by opening the Cherry Street and West End car parks,” she said.

Karlee finds her own way Karlee Rawnsley has had a harder start to life than most. Along with her younger sister, she was placed in the care of their paternal grandmother, Jan, when Karlee was nine because her dad was struggling to look after the pair on his own. “It came down to a choice of someone in the family taking them, or them going into foster care, so I took an early retirement from work and took them on,” Jan said. One of the first things Jan did as primary carer was to take the girls for a paediatric assessment, where it was discovered that both had been born with foetal alcohol syndrome. For Karlee, the diagnosis meant she was about 18 months behind her peers developmentally. But rather than use the diagnosis as an excuse, Karlee used it as an incentive.
Now 17, the year 12 Tarneit Secondary College student recently received a Mayoral Youth Award for showing great adversity in spite of her challenging beginnings. She hopes to become a lawyer for the defence force. “Doctors said I wouldn’t make it to VCE, but I’ve got classes where I’m an A student across the board,” Karlee said. Jan added: “Watching her grow into the wonderful young woman that she’s becoming has been an absolute joy and pleasure. “She has exceeded every expectation. It is a testament to her hard work. She wouldn’t have made it this far if she hadn’t dug her own heels in and got on with it.” Charlene Macaulay

Ryan wants action on irrigation By Charlene Macaulay Lalor MP Joanne Ryan has called on the federal government to fund its share of Werribee South irrigation upgrades as a matter of urgency. Ms Ryan said she was incensed to discover that federal agriculture and water resources minister David Littleproud met the Victorian Farmers Federation in Werribee South last month without making any funding announcement for the region. “If he wants to stand in amongst our lettuces
and get his boots dirty, then he needs to back that in with a commitment to our local growers, and for our very important industry,” she said. Southern Rural Water (SRW) wants a $31.1 million upgrade to the Werribee irrigation district to pipe all channels south of the Maltby bypass and save about 5000 megalitres of water each year, which is currently lost through leaking channels. Two thirds of the project has been funded through SRW and the state government, with works beginning mid-2017.
A SRW spokeswoman said the state government had last year been unsuccessful in receiving the rest of the funding through the federal government’s National Water Infrastructure Development Fund. “The Victorian government has resubmitted the bid and, with SRW, is now waiting on the federal government’s decision, which is expected within the next few weeks.” A spokesman for federal agriculture and water resources minister said: “The Coalition government has established $2.5 billion of
funding to fast-track investment in critical water infrastructure to stimulate projects the state may not otherwise build.” Responsibility for the National Water Infrastructure Development Fund sits with minister for infrastructure Michael McCormack. A spokeswoman for Mr McCormack added: “The Werribee and Bacchus Marsh application for capital funding is currently being carefully considered as part of a competitive, merit-based expression of interest application process”.
Sports honour for Anna A Werribee lacrosse official has netted a glowing recommendation. Anna Lewer was recently named a finalist in the Victorian Sport Awards’ Victorian Community Official of the Year category for her referee work in lacrosse. The nomination followed her receiving the 2017 Lacrosse Victoria Official of the Year award. Lewer has spent the past 15 years officiating women’s games for the Altona Lacrosse Club, and last year also took on the Men’s State League – the highest grade possible. “It unusual to get a female to [be an official] for men’s games,” she said. “That’s quite challenging for referees, because the men can be quite aggressive and know their rules – it’s a bit more of a challenge than division three [where I started].” Although Lewer missed out on the top gong last week, she said she was thrilled to have been nominated. “I was really surprised, and humbled [to be
nominated]. It’s nice that you’re appreciated and that people remember you. “When I started playing, everyone had to have a turn at refereeing, because there weren’t even referees going around. “Everyone was nominated to do at least one game per season and eventually I did more and more refereeing.” Sport minister John Eren said the awards recognised and celebrated Victoria’s home-grown sporting heroes. “We’re proud to honour our selfless and dedicated individuals, clubs and organisations,” Mr Eren said.

Mayoral Column There has never been a better time to get out and work on improving your fitness in Wyndham. The Cancer Council’s Wyndham Relay for Life is on this weekend, which will see hundreds of local residents lace up their runners for a good cause. I’ll be participating this year and I’m sure together we will all raise lots of money for cancer research, prevention and support services. Aside from that, Premier’s Active April is also just around the corner. The free and fun initiative encourages people to commit to 30 minutes of physical activity every day for the month of April. You can check out their website at www. activeapril.vic.gov.au and even download an app that will allow you to compete with your friends and see what local events and activities are happening. The newly redeveloped Chirnside Park Hub is also set to open very soon. This extremely impressive facility will not only be home to the Werribee Football Club and the Werribee Cricket Club and support grassroots sport, it will also be able to host finals and major sporting events, while the North Melbourne Football Club’s community engagement project, The Huddle, will also be run out of it. Community groups will even have the opportunity to hire spaces within the new pavilion. I encourage all of you to head down check it out and maybe do a couple of laps of the oval. With so many opportunities to dust off the cobwebs over the next month, I hope to see some of you out and about, getting fit and healthy in our great City. Regards, Peter Maynard

Walk down memory lane By Alesha Capone Back in time – 50 years or a century ago – Wyndham was a very different place. For the children of today, it can sometimes be hard to picture what the municipality looked like in those days or how people lived. Photography is one way to gain an insight to those times, whether you want to see old bluestone buildings, the Point Cook RAAF base or members of the Australian Women’s Land Army working in the fields around Werribee during World War II. The State Library Victoria has a digital archive of historic images showcasing such scenes – and many other pictures of the state’s past – that can be viewed by anyone with an internet connection. A state library picture librarian, Madeleine Say, says the archive is “the premier resource” for images relating to the people and history of Victoria. “The library has been collecting images relating to our social history for over 160 years,” Ms Say said. “State Library Victoria was a pioneer in digitising material and we now have over 300,000 digital images available via our website. “This material belongs to the Victorian people and it is our goal to make it available and accessible to as many people as we can.” Ms Say said images from the collection were used for exhibitions, television programs, books, blogs, online databases and web applications.

West program kicks goals

Cops set to hit the trail By Charlene Macaulay They’re all smiles now, but these Wyndham police officers will be flexing their muscles, raising their heart rates and working hard later this week to help people living in poverty. They’re among 44 officers from the Westgate division – which covers Wyndham, Maribyrnong and Hobsons Bay – who will be working to conquer the Oxfam Trailwalker fundraiser.
In teams of four, they’ll walk 100 kilometres in less than 48 hours. The trail kicks off this Friday on the outskirts of Melbourne’s CBD and will wind its way through the Dandenong Ranges and Yarra Valley National Parks, before finishing in the Warburton Valley. The annual event is held in 11 countries, with money raised going towards Oxfam’s efforts to fight poverty and injustice. Sergeant Kylie Power, who is part of team Gunna Get There, said police officers had been
taking part in arduous training sessions around the You Yangs and Geelong to be game-ready for the event. She said the 11 Westgate teams had so far raised more than $16,000, including a $3000 donation from Avalon Airport. To donate to one of the teams, go to bit. ly/2tUxlVr and select one of the following teams: Stumblin On, Blue Heelers, Section 10, Dragons, The Pretenders, Time Poor, Gunna Get There, Hell on Heels, Gunna Do It, Powerhouse and Dreamers.
Terry Charles credits the Sons of the West program with helping him through a tough time in his life, and he is encouraging more men to get involved. Mr Charles, 51, a Western Bulldogs supporter his whole life, said he was at a low point several years ago as he struggled with depression and the effects of heavy medication. He said it was Sons of the West, a free program for men focusing on healthy living and healthy lifestyles, that helped him out of a slump and gave him a leg-up. Mr Charles is now an advocate for the program, which welcomes men aged 18 and over to get involved. “Last year we even had an 85-year-old man with a broken leg join in the group – if he can do it, anyone can,” Mr Charles said. “Get out there and do it. It’s a lifesaver.” The program gives men important health prevention strategies and what they can do to be on top of their health. Ewen McRae

The chances of raising $200,000 from the Werribee district community in the near future will determine whether Werribee hospital authorities will apply for a Government grant of $445,000 for construction of a 40-bed geriatric ward at the hospital. The hospital has land and a small reserve of capital to back its proposal but needs the assured support of the community to ensure an early commencement of the project.
The Werribee Board of Works sewerage farm has been quarantined by the Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs because of a chemical pesticide found in some of the animals on the farm. Water Resources Minister, Mr Wilkes, confirmed that several head of cattle tested in a random sample from the farm contained more than the acceptable level of the pesticide dieldrin.
Inmates at Port Phillip Prison will remain locked in their cells for up to 23-hours a day until negotiations between management and senior officials are resolved. The private jail will operate on a restricted basis while the Community and Public Sector Union (CPSU) and prison operators Group Four work to reach agreement on staffing issues and work conditions at the Laverton North prison.
Wyndham’s only community health centre could lose staff and be forced to drop services following a decision by the Australian Taxation Office to strip such centres of their charity status. On February 29, the Victorian Healthcare Association notified its members that the tax office considered community health centres to be government rather than charitable organisations.

MY WYNDHAM Lorraine Havard is a lifelong Wyndham resident and long-time Relay for Life supporter. The 70-year-old retiree, who moved from Werribee to Little River five years ago, keeps herself busy with exercise, travel and her grandchildren. She tells Charlene Macaulay the full story.
I’ve been here for five years. Otherwise, I lived in Werribee all my life. I sold the family home after 12 years of being solo … we had the big family chat … I’ve got my little cottage here and my son’s over there [next door]. I love the peace and I love animals. I’ve always been a bit of a country bumpkin, so the tranquility and the animals are just my cup of tea. I imagine it’s similar to when you grew up in Werribee? Yes, it was very small. Werribee’s very big now and busy. Tell me how the Relay for Life team, Cactus Moon Prickles, was born. My husband and my brother died of cancer … my friend Cynthia Reynoldson, she does line dancing, her dad had died from cancer, too. Relay for Life was all in the papers and it was really intriguing to us. With her Cactus Moon Line Dancing Club and our passion, we thought we could get something happening. That was 16 years ago. We sold chocolates, we did raffles, sausage sizzles, trivia nights, bus trips – and we’ve
raised about $65,000 over that time. And that was with no corporate help. We did it all by ourselves, this group of little ladies. What’s kept the team going for 16 years? Just the passion. As long as I can, I’ll do something. Everyone is affected by cancer. You’re talking two or three people in each family now who are battling this terrible thing, cancer. That whole event is a healing place. Whether you walk at one o’clock in the morning or three o’clock in the morning, there’s always someone to chat to and the family get involved. The last two years we’ve partnered up with Bright Sparks (another Relay for Life team) because they were our neighbours for all the time we’ve been doing Relay for Life. They were struggling with fundraising to provide the tent, so we joined up and became friends. This is the first year that you won’t be running your own team at the event. Why is that? We’re starting to get on, but we’re still fundraising. This year, when we did the tin rattle at the intersections, two of us raised more than $400. We don’t care which team the money goes to – it all helps in the fight against cancer.

FOOD REVIEW
CONSIDER THE SAUCE Kenny Weir says a few tweaks have transformed Sahra’s Sahra’s Kitchen is the final regular Racecourse Road Somalian eatery to be covered by CTS. We’ve held off for a couple of reasons. We’ve eaten here a heap of times, but truth be told it has long seemed to operate, at least partially, as something of a community hub for the local Somalian community. While we’ve always been made to feel welcome, it has presented as being a little less open and viable for members of the general public. Plus, the last time I stepped in here, they’d run out of rice! There’s no such problems this time around as Bennie and settle in for a mid-week dinner. Indeed, the place had been tidied up and refreshed. There’s cool, matching furniture and even some artwork on the walls. We find the service prompt and cheerful. Sahra’s Kitchen is definitely open for your business. And there’s rice in the house! The menu is quite long and varied, running to breakfast dishes and a tuna sandwich. There’s even a transnational touch in the form of an injera meal. I’m told that’s unavailable this night, so Bennie and I opt for our regular rice/pasta with meat ($15). But first, soup – of course! Here the lamb-based concoction is cloudy – almost like a “cream of” soup. It’s delicious. There’s nary a trace of meat yet the whole thing is profoundly and deeply flavoured with lamb.
SAHRA’S KITCHEN Address: 303 Racecourse Road, Flemington Phone: 9044 7337 Bennie’s pasta combo with lamb and my rice combo with lamb are excellent, matching in every way the quality found elsewhere on this magical strip. Bennie’s spaghetti and its tomato-based sauce is not as wet as some, nor as dry as others, and a touch more oily. He slurps up every strand with glee. My rice is fine but plain. All the lamb is tender and wonderful – even the more hunka chunks. A friend commented this week how he finds the Somalian food at one of his new faves varies depending on who is manning the stoves. We like that about all our favourite Somalian joints, that the food is hardly ever the same. It varies depending not just on who is in the kitchen but also on the hour of the day and the day of the week. In this case, we are blessed with plentiful amounts of pan-tanned veg – onion, carrot, capsicum and even some broccoli. If not the best part of our meals, the vegetable factor is certainly the crowning glory.

Tune in to positive plans on hearing March is World Hearing Month, with the theme this year being “Hear the future … and be prepared”. According to Alice McConchie, audiologist and owner of Attune Hearing in Hoppers Crossing, in developed countries such as Australia, hearing loss is preventable in 49 per cent of children and 37 per cent of adults who suffer from it.
A
lice explains that a new report released by Hearing Care Industry Association reveals more than 1.3 million Australians are living with hearing loss that could have been prevented. “We strongly believe that prevention is better than cure and that early intervention is key,” she says. “While many Australians regard hearing loss as an inevitable and innocuous consequence of ageing, current research suggest it’s largely preventable and [that] untreated hearing loss has consequences for health. “During Hearing Awareness Month, we’re on a mission to educate on prevention and early detection of hearing loss, as well as effective intervention for all middle-aged Australians. “We encourage people of all ages to have their hearing checked this month so they can know their ‘hearing numbers’. While normal vision is regarded as 20/20, normal hearing in adults is 4 x 25 (25-decibel thresholds across the four key speech pitches) in each ear.”
Alice invites people to come into her clinic for a free screening during March. Why Attune Hearing? Here are Alice’s reasons: • Because we care. • We are Australian-owned. • Attune is built on medical foundations, so we are supported and support medical professionals seeking to determine hearing health diagnosis and assist with ongoing hearing needs. • We are independent from hearing aid manufacturers, so we provide the best, unbiased choice in brands, styles and prices to suit your lifestyle. • Attune never sacrifices patient care for the sake of a sale – your hearing health is always our priority Attune Hearing, 211 Heaths Road, Hoppers Crossing.

College’s learning curve takes off Thomas Carr College’s Magis Program is dedicated to creating the very best learning environment so students will be challenged and shine brightly.
(Supplied)
T
he program is designed to cater for the needs of the academically gifted or talented student who demonstrate above-average abilities and high levels of task commitment and creativity. Deeply rooted in the wisdom and tradition of Ignatian spirituality, the Latin word, magi, means “the greater, the excellent, the best”. Through this specialist curriculum, well-practised teaching expertise and a culture of high expectations, students are stimulated, challenged and motivated towards higher levels of achievement. Each year, one class of year 7 students will be selected to embark on the six-year Magis Program, which is designed to enhance intellectual potential and development. Accelerated courses involve a combination of a faster-paced curriculum and more complex, abstract material that encourage development of higher-level thinking. College principal Andrew Watson says that while the Magis Program will align with the current curriculum from years 7 to 12, many new opportunities to extend students will be presented. “Students will be encouraged to participate in a range of advanced academic activities, focusing on literacy
and numeracy, while being extended in the various college electives,” Dr Wason says. “The ability for Magis Program students to complete the VCE (Baccalaureate) will also be central to this program. “The VCE (Baccalaureate) is an additional form of recognition for those students who choose to undertake the demands of studying both higher-level mathematics and a language in their VCE program of study. Advanced studies in LOTE will allow students to take up this opportunity.” Dr Watson says gifted or talented
students experience a sense of wellbeing, positive development and engagement when provided with supportive and challenging learning environments, along with opportunities that are responsive to their individual strengths and interests. A key feature of the Magis Program is that it allows students the chance to complete Advanced Standing Studies in partnership with tertiary institutions. Each year, the college also offers scholarships to two students in year 7 and two students in year 10. Scholarship
applications for 2019 are now open and close on April 10. To apply, go to aus.edutest.com.au/ Parent/Landing?s=RSm8QS8QiFqcHpXvMU rlrg%3d%3d For further information on scholarship applications, contact the college registrar.

Wine and fine dine a Werribee icon Whichever way you look at it, Shadowfax is a star in Werribee’s firmament. Producing award-winning drops since 1999, the boutique winery has evolved into a destination eatery, a tasting bar and weekend gathering place to hear live music.
T
he stunning architecture of the Cellar Door building, designed by Wood Marsh, and the wonderful outdoor terrace and landscaped gardens are what reward first-time visitors to Shadowfax. But once those visitors are inside, other surprises are rolled out. Shadowfax handcrafted wines come from its own vineyards in Werribee and the Macedon Ranges. Passionate winemaker, graduate scientist and oenologist Alister Timms, who grew up on his family’s Bellarine Peninsula vineyard, says Shadowfax wines star on the lists of many well-known Australian restaurants. “Our renowned varieties include Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Minnow and Shiraz, as well as a selection of highly limited single-vineyard wines from our Little Hampton vineyard in the Macedon Ranges,” Alister says. “Minnow, which comes from our Werribee vineyard, is a unique combination of carignan, mataro, cinsault, grenache and mondeuse noire. “And look out for our highly anticipated chardonnays and pinot noirs from the Macedon Ranges, to be released later this month.” General manager Phil Strachan, an Aberdeen export, says the winery’s 100-seat restaurant is popular for good reason. “Chef Ben D’Arcy, heading up a team
of chefs, brings his experience from some of Melbourne’s top restaurants,” he says. “Dishes are Italian-leaning, with handpicked vegies from our garden a feature, and wood-fired cooking is another Ben specialty. “The restaurant’s contemporary-industrial fit-out also makes it a great setting for weddings and other occasions.” Restaurant and Cellar Door Manager Matthew Ehmke has likewise come from industry heavy-hitters. He’s worked at the likes of Donovans in St Kilda and Redhill’s Ten Minutes by Tractor and Montalto Vineyard, so visitors can expect high standards throughout their Shadowfax experience. Wine buffs and lovers of Shadowfax’s wines would be mad not to join Shadowfax’s Wine Club – a brilliant way to receive a regular delivery of new and in-demand wines as they’re released. Shadowfax Winery, K Road, Werribee. Opens 11am-5pm daily. Inquiries: 9731 4420 or visit shadowfax.com.au

We even have a six-seater pram for our community walks – that certainly turns heads.” Kieran and Karen agree that it’s really all about lots of fun while learning. “We run themed days, we throw parties, we have pets and we have community visitors,” Karen says. “Our goal each day is to teach children new skills, prepare them for school and ensure they have fun doing so.” The final word? “We want to be known as the best early learning centre in Victoria and we’re confident we can make this happen.” Kids World, 14-16 Walls Road, Werribee.

ieran and Karen Armstrong took ownership of Kids World last November, heading up a team of professional educators who love their jobs and have been at the centre for many years. Kieran, who has been in early education for a decade, has a psychology degree, majoring in child and adolescent development. Karen is a practising nurse and midwife, with a diploma in children’s services on the way. Their qualified kindergarten teacher, Lalaine Ortega, has been preparing Kids World children for school for the past seven years. Above-average credentials and experience? Tick. But Kids World is different in other ways, too, explains Kieran. “We draw our inspiration from the Montessori and Reggio teaching philosophies which, in essence, are based on self-directed activity, collaborative play and structured age-appropriate hands-on learning tailored to each child’s interests,” he says. “We also focus strongly on our parents. For example, we have a morning coffee brew ready on their arrival and offer an afternoon snack on their way out the door. We even usher them out under an umbrella if it’s raining! And our busy parents won’t

It’s all smiles at Hoppers Crossing When Dr Sarojani Maskey left Wyndham after working as a dentist in the area for more than seven years, she didn’t know how much she would miss the place … so she returned, opening Dental@Hoppers about two months ago. She and her family are happy to be back and ready to offer locals a top-notch affordable dental service.

‘I
love Wyndham but another reason I returned was to allow my daughters to get their education here. My youngest daughter is starting prep at Truganina South Primary School and my elder daughter is in year 11 at Suzanne Cory High School and I wanted to be around for them more instead of spending time travelling to work in another area,” Dr Maskey explains. With the assistance of dental nurses, Mandy and Salu, Dr Maskey, who can speak nepali, hindi and English fluently, offers general and cosmetic dentistry, as well as denture services. Dental@Hoppers accepts patients with private insurance from all health funds. The clinic also looks after children from two to 17 years old through the Child Dental Benefit Scheme – parents can access a $1000 voucher from Medicare to contribute towards costs for two calendar years. A passionate dentist, Dr Maskey aims to educate her patients and encourage them to take care of their oral hygiene and health. “As I have two children, I understand the importance of educating children about their oral health, and I have a lot of
patience and strive to do this as much as possible,” she says. “It’s not just the lovely children who visit our clinic that might get a gentle ‘talking-to’ about oral health, it’s the adults as well. Prevention of dental problems is so important. “But if dental problems do develop, we’re
totally committed to solving them – and in a very calm, relaxed way.” Dr Maskey says as well as the convenience for patients of being open every day, the clinic is state-of-the-art and has the latest technology such as an intra oral camera to help better treat and educate patients.

Now it’s even kooler for Tarneit kidz Kool Kidz Tarneit is open again following bright new renovations embracing spaces that foster play-based learning and social awareness.
O
wner and approved provider Sam Johnson says the results can already be seen after a revamp of Kool Kidz Tarneit, the fresh look enabling a change in direction for the service. “We have actively steered away from a technology focus in early childhood following research and have reinvested into the importance of play-based learning and inquiry-based learning – renovating the rooms to incorporate an interdisciplinary learning approach,” she says. “The children learn about ‘big ideas’ through the whole room being focused on this by setting the stage for learning.” “Since this change in direction, the children are running in every day, socialising more, learning how to play respectfully and communicate well whilst having a lot of fun. “The only tears we see are at home time as they do not want to leave!” “It is really wonderful to see children develop and learn and not even being aware of it, learning vital skills such as problem solving, communication and social skills that are fundamental to achieving a productive and happy life and being a fully-rounded little person.” The new look childcare service has lighter colours and furnishings but it feels homely with touches of greenery, soft cushions and couches in every room, ready to have a snuggle with the children. By creating a home away from home, Sam hopes to support children so they
feel at ease quickly and learning will follow naturally from this. The service also has special incursions included in the cost every day of the week, including Hey Dee Ho/Fiction Factory on Mondays, Yoga on Tuesdays, Mini Maestros on Wednesdays, Little Action Heroes on Thursdays and Activ 8 on Fridays. Details about the incursions are available on the website. Kool Kidz Tarneit is also the only long day care centre in Tarneit to receive the coveted “exceeding standards” status from the Department of Education. Sam says she and husband, Ian Johnson, started the business after accessing day care services themselves for their two daughters. She said they wanted to offer the kind of centre they were looking for, which was an extension of their family and community. “After realising how valuable this service is in supporting families, Ian and I decided we wanted to support and help others just like us,” Sam says. “We emigrated from the UK with no family to lean on and this kind of care really saved us at the time. We wanted to offer this experience and service to our local community.” Kool Kidz Tarneit, 642 Tarneit Road, Tarneit. Opens 6.30am-6.30pm Monday-Friday. Inquiries: 9748 2004 or visit koolkidzchildcare.com.au

"Kool kidz Tarneit is an incredible centre. The atmosphere here was amazing and we can not wait for it to be rebuilt so we can return again. While attending my girls have made some amazing memories and great relationships. I would highly recommend this centre to everyone in the area."
Sam is the owner and approved provider of Kool Kidz Tarniet, an exceeding rated childcare and kindergarten service that is loved by the community. As mother of two daughters and with 15 years experience teaching, Sam knows what goes into creating the best possible early learning environments for children. Sam has lived and worked in the area for the last 10 years and has become a proud member of the Tarneit community. Her Kool Kidz service is respected as one of the best in the area.

Heathdale loves learning One of the biggest decisions parents make is choosing the right school for their child. Each school is different. Heathdale Christian College principal Ross Grace believes his school provides a unique learning community for families in the Werribee area.
A
chieving a particular vocation through education in school is one important aspect of life, says Mr Grace. “However, when it comes to the development of a child, Heathdale Christian College believes a school can do more than this,” he says. “We teach students from a biblical worldview, beginning with the belief that God created children unique, gifting them with individual characteristics and potential “It’s from this springboard that our purpose statement is founded and is why our programs are developed – to give opportunities for each child to develop their purpose.” The college’s 2017 year 12 VCE, VET and VCAL scores illustrate the great outcomes of the curriculum and co-curricular programs. With the widest initial subject selections at VCE level in the western suburbs, the college saw last year’s dux achieve 95.65 and multiple students receive university early offers due to outstanding results and community and leadership skills. In its extensive creative and visual arts programs, the college had a perfect subject score in music industry studies, along with student nominations in Top Arts and Top Acts. Heathdale’s programs are structured from four-year-old kindergarten through to year
12 to enable each student to have a strong base of literacy and numeracy – evidenced through well-above average NAPLAN results. The largest range of subjects occur through years 7 and 8, as students learn up to three languages (Latin, French and Mandarin), compete in sports, study science, maths, creative and visual arts, and participate in leadership opportunities and community service programs. “In short, the College tailors its curriculum and co-curricular programs, all based on God’s Holy Bible, for each student to pursue and launch into the next phase of their life,” Mr Grace says. “Teachers encourage students to learn life-long behaviours, such as integrity, honesty, respect, love, honour and truth. “Our College continues to grow, now with two strong campuses in the western suburbs. I invite any parent who is looking for more than vocational education to come and speak with us to find out about our unique and distinctive style of Christian education.” Heathdale Christian College, 175 Derrimut Road, Werribee.

Designed with the child in mind Wyndham Early Learning Family Day Care is highly regarded by the families that use its service, one client even calling it “the best day care in the west”.
T
his fantastic accolade is one of many and director Fiona Jardine puts it down to choosing the best educators and finding educators whose values align with her own. Fiona is an organised and loving mum and now a business person building success upon success to run a family day care service with more than 35 accredited early-leaning educators. Wyndham Early Learning Family Day Care is smaller in size compared to other similar family care-style services and this is no accident. “I cap the amount of educators and homes I invite to be a part of my business so the quality stays high,” Fiona says. “We offer care for up to 13 years of age too, so families with larger families can keep all the children together, which is great for working mums and dads. “Educators provide education and care within their homes and can care for up to four pre-school children and three school-aged children.” The service is approved for child care benefit and rebate through Centrelink. Educator Debbie Macleod has recently been awarded the National Educator of the Year 2017 Family Day Care Australia Educator Awards. Lorraine says she has only been with
Fiona Jardine, Kayla Kovanovic, Debbie Macleod, Lorraine White, Vilma Harraden and Lilianne Addamo. (Damjan Janevski)
Wyndham Early Learning Family Day Care for eight months. “I made the call to Fiona and true to her word she was on my doorstep within 20 minutes,” Lorraine said. “Both Fiona and Kayla [Fiona’s coordinator] made the new transition to their wonderful service effortless, which is what we as early childhood educators look for.” Lilianne Addamo has been using Wyndham Early Learning for almost two years now.
We are recruiting educators for 2018
“When I decided to go back to work full-time, I knew I needed to do some deep investigation and research to feel confident and at ease with my decision,” Ms Addamo said. “Within two days [Fiona’s] team found a great match for us – Vandana. She’s just lovely and the kids love her.” Wyndham Early Learning Family Day Care offers small nurturing group settings for your child to thrive in, including long day care, casual care, before and after school
care and school holiday care. “Any family that enrols with us each month enter into a draw to win a $50 Coles/ Myer voucher,” Fiona adds. “So give us a call and see if we are a good fit for your family. We hope to speak with you soon.” Wyndham Early Learning Family Day Care, 1 Flourish Way, Werribee. Opens 8am-4pm Monday-Friday. Inquiries: 9749 7918

Lifestyle a big part of the care Just shy of one year after welcoming its first residents, St Vincent’s Care Services Werribee has quickly grown into a supportive and relaxing community where a high-quality lifestyle is key. It’s the kind of place that has recently introduced, for example, an egg-hatching program, with residents delightedly watching over and caring for 12 chickens until they hatched. The private resident rooms feature en suite bathrooms and quality contemporary fittings and furnishings, with options for residents to add their own personal touches. A number of rooms have interconnecting doors – perfect for couples. Co-located with St Vincent’s Private Hospital Werribee and public health services, St Vincent’s Care Services allows residents to enjoy peace of mind, with access to visiting GPs and allied health professionals, including physiotherapists and expert clinical care available if required. The St Vincent’s holistic approach to aged-care encompasses not just clinical care, but also incorporates leisure and lifestyle or social activities, as well as pastoral and spiritual support tailored to each resident or client’s preferences. While the Werribee aged-care establishment is yet to reach its first birthday, St Vincent’s Care Services has a legacy of care that was created by the Sisters of Charity more than 175 years ago with the founding of the first St Vincent’s hospital in Sydney.

pen to anyone from Hobsons Bay, Wyndham, Melton and Maribyrnong, the expo is a RoadSafe Westgate Community Road Safety Council initiative. RoadSafe Westgate chairman Jim Giddings says his group is committed to supporting older drivers to continue driving on the road longer and to drive safely. “We can all be better drivers with a few simple things, like keeping up with new road laws and making sure our health is as good as can be,” Jim says. “Getting rid of bad driving habits and keeping our cars in good condition are other vital ingredients.” The expo will give senior drivers the chance for a free and confidential one-on-one session with one of the three registered driving instructors – this is designed to identify any “short cut” habits drivers may have adopted. Each expo participant can have a professional, such as a VicRoads roadworthy officer, advise on how to keep cars in roadworthy condition.

The door to a fantastic new kitchen The kitchen has forever been the heart of the home and, as such, home owners generally want this room to shine. It’s the spot where friends congregate for a chat and coffee and the engine room for crafting meals to nourish the family.
B
ut what do you do when your budget won’t allow that complete kitchen revamp you’d love to have? The team at Dream Doors provides a very clever solution. Dream Doors, a company founded in 1999 in the UK and launched in Australia five years ago, delivers a concept of giving kitchens a radical uplift by adding top-notch new benchtops, door fronts, drawers and door furniture – working around the kitchen hardware already in place.

design, Dream Doors brings its knowledge and experience to the process. “There are many different factors to consider, the most obvious being the functional and aesthetic design.

Wyndham Park PS - A learning community Actively upholding the values expressed in the school’s motto, “Aspire Learn Achieve”, has enabled Wyndham Park Primary School to grow enrolments to approximately 400 students from diverse socio-economic and cultural backgrounds since 2011. Principal Laban Toose believes the students thrive on the school’s values of respect, responsibility and safety.
“O
ur purpose is to provide an opportunity for every student to grow academically, socially and emotionally through living the school’s motto and values,” Mr Toose says. “The school’s beliefs revolve around the growth of every student, supported by best-practice teaching in literacy, numeracy and student wellbeing initiatives that make Wyndham Park Primary school a purposeful learning environment. “We are committed to the School Wide Positive Behaviour philosophy that drives our solution-focused attitude in the ways we interact, behave and learn. “We also offer our students state-of-the-art buildings in which to learn, and wonderful surrounds that include Heathdale and Glen Orden Wetlands, a full-sized sports oval with synthetic surface and plexipave basketball courts.” Information Communication Technology plays a vital role in Wyndham Park’s engaging learning activities in all curriculum areas. The award-winning Robotics Program is another example of full embracing ICT across the whole school. Student growth is supported by a detailed Intervention Program, delivered by highly trained teachers and education support staff. It targets individual student learning goals in the following areas: Literacy, Numeracy, English as an additional language and social and emotional learning needs by using detailed evidence based and referral processes. The student classroom program
is enriched by specialist Physical Education, Spanish and Arts programs. The school is part of the Wyndham extended Schools Hub, which has been developed to provide the best possible support for every child and family through partnerships with local agencies, including The Smith Family, Maternal and Child Health Services and Wyndham Community Education Centre. The school aims to nurture positive relationships within the community through: • Fostering a more visible presence of parents and community involved in the classrooms. • Families being given opportunities for learning to assist their children’s academic learning. • Offering support such as translators to help families feel more comfortable when discussing their children’s learning. • Continuing to develop and implement multiple sources of communication. The school aims to support the social and emotional wellbeing of all members of the school community through: • Enhanced transitions. • Use of common language (BSEM). • Partnering and working with external agencies to support our entire school community.

Skin rejuvenation’s smart choice After a fresh look? Let the team at Hoppers Lane General Practice Clinic help take away those frown lines and wrinkles with Botox, fillers or Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy options.
T
rusting your skin rejuvenation treatments to a general practitioner is the smart option. The clinic offers discreet injectable services and other cosmetic services such as Botox and fillers in a professional, medically-led environment. Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy (PRP) is a treatment used for decades to help heal sports injuries and to assist in the healing process following major dental surgery. More recently its cosmetic benefits have been too great to ignore. Practice manager Laura Paton says PRP enhances wound healing to rejuvenate skin. “The results, even after one session, can be pretty remarkable, although three sessions every six to 12 months are recommended to sustain best possible results. “We have three GPs that specialise in Botox, fillers and the PRP procedure. “They are all incredibly well-educated, having trained in cosmetic-specific procedures. “What sets our clinic apart is that you are often being treated by a doctor with more than 11 years of education under their belt, not to mention years and years of clinical practice. “Our doctors understand intricately how the muscles, tendons and fatty tissues all intersect and also understand the risks. “They are the obvious first choice when undertaking any cosmetic procedure as
Botox
and
they will ensure you get the best possible treatment and value for money.” Laura says that you can get a free consultation to talk in-depth with a GP to understand the different procedures and know the costs so you can be well prepared. “If you call to book, you can usually get in within 24 hours, which is great,” she says. Hoppers Lane General Practice is open until 10pm Monday to Friday, so fitting in an appointment is a breeze even when life and work keeps you busy. For the month of April, filler costs $550 for one vial (normally $650) – so if it’s something you’re considering, now is a great time to book an appointment. Hoppers Lane General Practice Clinic also assists patients with management of chronic diseases such as diabetes and asthma, along with travel medicine, skin checks, minor procedures, vasectomies, sports medicine, immunisation, home-health assessments and occupational health issues including workplace injuries and health checks. Hoppers Lane General Practice Clinic, 242 Hoppers Lane, Werribee. Opens 9am-10pm Monday-Friday and 9am-5pm Saturday and Sunday. Inquiries: 8731 6500 or visit hopperslanegp.com.au

Fillers
The anti-ageing properties of the botulinum toxin (sold as Botox and Dysport) are likely behind many a well-preserved face in Hollywood. When injected, Botox relaxed muscles, prevents skin from creasing and causing wrinkles. It’s effective for “expression lines”, such as frown and surprise lines on the forehead and crow’s feet around the eyes.
Rather than just smoothing or tightening skin, an injectable filler aims to change the facial profile to a more youthful one. The injection of filler materials under the skin can fill in deep folds, such as nasolabial fold (also called “bracket lines”, running from the corner of the nose to the corner of the mouth, create fuller lips and pad out hollow cheeks and eyes.

irector of Campus, Christ the King, Natalie Meddis says that preparatory years 7 to 9 are fundamental in setting study habits and academic skills. “The single-sex setting encourages our girls to challenge a national trend indicating that girls are less likely to take STEM subjects at an early age,” Natalie says. “Our female students are encouraged to develop strong skills in STEM-focused subjects, with an emphasis on the development of skills, throughout their early years of secondary education.” Several students are happy to share their experiences at the College. “I’m excited to participate in science activities at our school,” says Aliyah, a year 8 student. “We’ve had workshops conducted by university students, as well as work experience programs.” Natalie says that by the time year 10 comes around, the girls feel confident and engaged with STEM and therefore more likely to continue. “We’re enjoying a rise in the number of girls taking physics, chemistry, specialist maths and maths methods,” she reports. Francis, a former student, tells her story. “Starting off at an all-girls school created a focused environment for me to learn, but I never felt alienated from the boys,” she says. “We visited the all-boys campus often enough for electives, which made it
easier when it came time to transition to co-educational classes.” Natalie says the single-sex/co-educational structure is part of the college’s focus on a personalised learning for all,designed to increase bonds between the school of 1500 students and their families – and it means students are known by the staff. Nikita, a year 9 student, says: “When I walk into Christ the King campus, every day I feel this blanket of safeness that, no matter what I’m feeling, there is this unity with the staff and students so I can be and act like myself without getting judged – and that’s the best anyone could ever ask for.” The college has a range of wellbeing programs, including counselling support and programs such as Rock and Water, enabling students to view their teenage years as opportunities. The all-girls campus is undergoing a major refurbishment, with a performing arts centre being built, with upgrades to science and technology rooms scheduled for 2019. Enrolments for year 7 in 2020 are now open. Tours of the all-girls campus or any of the sites can be arranged by contacting the college registrar.

Werribee City’s winning partnership Werribee City Football Club will have a new major sponsor on side this season – Benlor Real Estate. Reigniting the Fabretto family’s connection to the community, the partnership will give the club great support and confidence for the future.
B
enlor’s founder, Benny Fabretto, was the first president of the Italian Sports Club of Werribee, back in
1971. As the Fabretto family becomes involved once more with the club, its soccer ground will be renamed as Benlor Ground in honour of the new major sponsor. Benny’s son and company director, Ben Fabretto, describes his pride in bringing the family business back to the Werribee community. “It’s nice for us to return to the club, as it’s a highly regarded part of our community,” he says. “It’s a pivotal part of the culture in Werribee. The club has 7500 members, really making it the heart and soul of the town. “Sponsoring the club is all about supporting the community and reconnecting the family to Werribee City. “My dad was a driving force in establishing the club and he is still a member today. I’m looking forward to having my sons be part of the club, too, when they’re older. “As part of the sponsorship, Benlor will be donating 10 per cent of our selling fees to WCFC when club members sell their homes with us.” The soccer club’s chairman, Giovanni Inserra, says Benlor’s funding will give local
players more potential to succeed than ever before. “Our vision is to develop a senior team made up of talented, young local players who have improved through our junior coaching system,” he says. “This gives kids the opportunity to play senior football at an elite level. “Other clubs are focused on winning … they can lose sight of giving young players genuine opportunities. We want to be successful in the right way. We’re going to do this by giving juniors quality coaching.” Club marketing manager Vincent Sanza believes Benlor’s sponsorship will have a huge impact on its ongoing development. “Benlor is the crown jewel of our club,” he says. “Their funding will go towards junior development. It’s quite a big relief to have a major sponsor like Benlor on board. “This club is where Benlor belongs – it’s their second home. It makes sense for them to come back here. Finding a connection that was once lost and rekindling it again with the soccer club is a great thing to have.” Italian Sports Club of Werribee, 601 Heaths Road, Werribee.

Village Green – the latest in Newgate’s home haven at Tarneit Village Green home sites will be released this Saturday in the recently launched Newgate estate, one of the most sought-after residential projects in Tarneit.
Open day
Between 10am and 5pm on Saturday, March 24, people will view the sites for the first time as they enjoy barista coffee and delicious Indian street food. There’ll be activities to entertain the kids, as well. A bank representative will be available to answer inquiries regarding finance for a variety of lot choices, with the mixed streetscapes and flexible design guidelines making it easy to build a dream home at an affordable price, starting from $435,000 for a house-and-land package.
Who is the developer?
Newgate is the latest project of multi-award-winning developer Central Equity Land, a company with more than 30 years’ experience and a keen understanding of what’s important to locals. Featherbrook Point Cook is one of its developments – one that has won several industry awards. Central Equity marketing manager Jeremy Vile says Newgate is proving very popular with buyers. “This is because it’s so well positioned, within easy reach of established services and planned developments,” he says. “New home sites are selling very quickly … we encourage prospective home buyers to make their inquiries soon.”
Convenient location
On the corner of Sayers and Davis roads in Tarneit, Newgate offers easy access to schools, shopping, transport and recreation facilities.
44 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ MARCH 21, 2018
The Village Green release is within a walk of proposed primary and secondary schools, a neighbourhood town centre, parks and open spaces. Two new train stations are planned for the area, both close to Newgate, and the 167 bus route stops near Newgate and travels between Tarneit and Hoppers Crossing stations with stops at Pacific Werribee. Newgate is within easy reach of Westbourne Grammar, Thomas Carr Catholic School and Al Taqwa College. The Grange P-9, Tarneit Senior and Tarneit P-9 are close by and Newgate is also currently zoned for the new Tarneit Rise Primary School.
Newgate amenity
Native trees and vegetation will be a key feature of Newgate’s streetscapes and landscaped open spaces. Most homes will be within a stroll of a park or recreation area. They will include Newgate Park, four other neighbourhood parks, soccer fields, cricket ovals and a variety of landscaped creek reserves, wetland areas and a conservation area. These natural features will be complemented by the estate’s location near Werribee River and Davis Creek parklands. To register for exclusive open day event information, including the Newgate Masterplan and Village Green stage plan, go to newgate.com.au Newgate Sales and Information Centre, 171 Davis Road, Tarneit.

SPORT Devils import injects scoring power
Blake Allison gets the offence humming for the Werribee Devils. (Sean Rogasch/Werribee BA)
Tyrone Remy had a solid all-round game with 10 points, five rebounds and four assists. Trailing by two at half-time, Werribee put the foot on the accelerator with a 28 to 20 third period, which was the catalyst to its victory. Werribee will hit the road on Saturday night
to face the Ringwood Hawks in its last game before the Easter break. In women’s division 1, Werribee Devils took out a low scoring game 49-33 over Warrandyte Venom at the Warrandyte Sports Complex. Despite shooting just 25 per cent for the game, the Devils found a way to win on the back of a stellar performance from Sam Moodie, with 13 points, 18 rebounds and three assists. New import Alyssa Bennett found the going tough, hitting just two-from-13 from the field for six points and 10 rebounds. Georgia Tauschke was important for the Devils off the bench with 10 points and 11 rebounds. Werribee is back on the road in round two, where it will travel to play the Camberwell Dragons on Sunday. Lance Jenkinson
Cats in an upbeat mood By Lance Jenkinson Hoppers Crossing has achieved too much this season to let its CV Women’s Community Cricket north-west one-day grand final loss to Craigieburn dampen the mood. The Cats suffered a major letdown in the season decider, losing by eight wickets in a one-sided affair at DS Aitken Reserve on Sunday. More was expected from the Cats after they ousted previously undefeated minor premier Geelong in a semi-final and also took home the Twenty20 title earlier in the season. It was not to be the Cats’ day, with Craigieburn dominating in all facets. But Hoppers Crossing captain Brianna Herman and her teammates were still ebullient in the aftermath. “We’ve gone from last season, winning only about five games, to winning a T20 final and knocking off the undefeated team,” she said. “I think everyone is in pretty good spirits knowing that whatever happened today, we’ve still achieved that. It’s easily a 10-out-of-10 season for us.” Hoppers Crossing laid a strong platform with the bat through Kayla Koropeckyj and Shannon Wilde. Koropeckyj top-scored with 22 off 73 balls and Wilde helped take the shine off the ball with eight from 45. From a strong position of 1-47, the Cats lost their final nine wickets for 13 to be all out for 60 in 33.2 overs. “The top order did really well,” Herman said. “When the first couple of batters dropped, the rest of them dropped.” Hoppers Crossing did not wave the white flag. The Cats’ bowlers made Craigieburn work for its runs, but it was never going to end favourably with such a small total to defend. Craigieburn reached the target two down in the 27th over. Herman was pleased with the fight shown by her bowlers in a tough situation. “Everything was kept at the body, on their toes and making it hard for them to play,” she said. Herman is enthusiastic about Hoppers Crossing’s future and has urged the players to stick together and grow. “If they all keep playing together, all they’re going to do is improve,” she said. “There’s going to be a high chance that we’re up there every season in the coming years.” Herman is hopeful that Hoppers Crossing will get to welcome back last year’s captain, Ashleigh Mills. Mills sat out this season after having a baby. She was superb for the Cats last season, with 324 runs at 36 to go with seven wickets.
IN THE DOGHOUSE ■ The
two founding clubs of the old FDFL competition, Parkside and Braybrook, are both admired and loathed for their success and survival. Both have experienced the highs and lows of football and in recent years have almost disappeared. Braybrook heads into the 2018 season with a new enthusiastic coach in Jason Hamilton and a bit of the old Brooker swagger back at Pennell Reserve. The club is hosting a “Braybrook – I Lived There” reunion on Saturday, April 7 from noon when the seniors will play St Kilda City in a practice match. There will be drinks, food and top class entertainment with Fabulous Phil Golotta belting out classics from 5pm. For more details contact Brian Leiper brian.leiper@bigpond.com
■ The
Albion Football Club made the news last week for all the wrong reasons. Social media was awash with news of a racial scandal at the club involving a top official. I don’t want to get into the intricacies of this incident, but just an observation in general about racist behaviour: surely everyone now gets it that it is totally 100 per cent not acceptable in any form. The slightest tinge of it will be the demise of clubs in a very short space of time. Albion has other issues which are clouding its future as a club without this. There are some incredible people who have put their life into the club over the years and they, along with the current coaches, players and volunteers, deserve the chance to be part of the 2018 season and beyond.
■ The
Western Bulldogs could add yet another trophy to the cabinet this weekend when the AFL women’s team plays in its first ever grand final. What an amazing effort by senior coach Paul Groves and his charges after a few nail biting results during the competition, none better than the two-point win over Melbourne to secure the grand final berth. The girls head to Ikon Park Carlton this Saturday at 1.05pm for the chance to create history. After a drought it is raining cups at Whitten Oval, with the women’s cup set to join the AFL and VFL cups by Saturday night. Good luck to all when they take on the Brisbane Lions Saturday.
■ The
following day the AFL season gets under way for Bulldogs fans in Canberra, when the Dogs take on the GWS Giants. Footy always throws up a few surprises. Let’s hope the red, white and blue are part of it this year. Kevin Hillier

New import Konor Kulas has made a huge impression on debut for the Werribee Devils in a 109-101 victory in the Big V basketball men’s state championship season opener at Eagle Stadium on Sunday. Kulas, a 201 centimetre forward, scored 33 points to go with 13 rebounds, immediately endearing himself to the Devils’ faithful. Kulas, an American who has played professionally in Germany, went to the free throw line 19 times for 16 makes. While Kulas was the standout, it was an even Devils performance with plenty of contributions. Deng Chan had a major presence with 15 points, 10 rebounds, five assists and two steals in just 21 minutes. Bryan Nagy, with 17 points, five rebounds and three steals, and Dominic Bruno, with 11 points and three assists, each hit three three-pointers.

Brasher’s bold progress Dylan Brasher’s cricket career blossomed from the moment he scored a century in his first tournament with a Victorian team. Playing in the title-winning Victorian under-12 team in 2014, Brasher went out and scored 110 not out against the ACT in the final match and was immediately on the radar for underage state team selections. “The under-12 one was a bit unexpected because it’s hard to get picked when the trials are all over the place,” Brasher said. “It has snowballed from there.” Brasher has been consistently picked for Victorian teams since. The Taylors Lakes resident has produced some big innings in big games for his state. None bigger though than his 112 against South Australia at the under-17 national championships in September. Brasher, playing as the vice captain, had a superb tournament with 252 runs at an average
of 36, but it was his century against SA that had tongues wagging. “I probably wasn’t hitting them as well early, but as soon as I got to 50, that’s when I knew I was hitting them out of the middle alright,” Brasher said. “That 100 is probably the highlight so far.” Brasher has also enjoyed some great moments with the Western Spirit at the state championships. As a bottom-age player in the under-18s, the 16-year-old made a massive 304 runs at 76, including 107 against the North West Wizards and 91 not out against North East Breakers. He was the top run scorer at the tournament. Brasher has been blessed with quality coaching and helpful teammates throughout his junior career. The Spirit has played a big part in his development, as has his current club Footscray and junior club Taylors Lakes.
Brasher is a year 11 student at the Maribyrnong Sports Academy. He credits the school for the development in his game between years 7 to 11 and his evolution as a leader. His ambition is to earn a first XI position for Footscray in the Premier Cricket and begin a push towards a state contract with the Victorian Bushrangers. The Australian baggy green is the ultimate dream. Brasher is the March nominee for the Don Deeble Rising Star award. The award, hosted by Sunshine Western Region Sports Club and Star Weekly, recognises young athletes who have achieved at state and/or national levels. Brasher will receive $1000, donated by the Yarraville Club Cricket Club, and other prizes to help him in achieving his sports goals. Lance Jenkinson

Seabrook fights for every ball By Lance Jenkinson Seabrook skipper Leigh Edwards reckons his team’s Victorian Turf Cricket Association west A1 grand final against Grand United is turning into a classic. The two best sides after the home-and-away rounds are locking horns to determine the premiership winner and neither has given too much ground after the first weekend of a four-day battle at Crofts Reserve in Altona North. “Every single ball so far has been fought the way a grand final should be,” Edwards said. “It’s been a good, tough contest all the way and it’s going to go down to the wire.” Energy-sapping heat, forceful winds and a constant battle between bat and ball made it a tiring weekend for the players. Edwards said he was physically and mentally drained at stumps on day two, but he was happy that Seabrook got what it wanted out of the first weekend, a first-innings lead, albeit a tiny 24 runs. “It gives us security going into the second week,” he said. “Any bad weather or anything like that, we’ve got the first-innings lead, which helps.” A defence-minded Seabrook posted 175 off 91.1 overs. Walgama Eranga was the only Saints batsman to get away, making 55. Eranga played a faultless innings until he threw his wicket away with a rash shot. “He got us through tea and would’ve batted 45 or 50 overs for those runs,” Edwards said. “He played a false shot and got out, but didn’t look like getting out before that. “He’s a class above, a first class player from Sri Lanka and we’re very lucky to have him.”
Andrew Hodgart (25) and Luke Rappazzo (20) added steel through the middle order. Hodgart is regularly one to stick around and make like a pain for opposition teams, but Rappazzo also showed patience to bat a long time and drew praise from his captain. “He batted probably 30-odd overs and did a fantastic job,” Edwards said. “He was the last man out with a silly run out, a mix up, but he really dug in when times were tough.” Seabrook’s bowlers were able to keep the free wheeling Grand United at bay before their total was breached. United was bowled out for 151 in 47.5 overs – 24 short of the target. While the Saints poked and prodded for their runs, United was more aggressive in a contrast of two styles. “They just played their natural game, which is aggression, whereas our natural game is defend and work through our innings,” Edwards said. “We went head-on and at the end of the weekend, we’ve got a lead after the first innings, which is fantastic, but it’s been a great contest all the way through. “Both teams have proved this is why we’re in the grand final because everyone is up for the fight.” Vishva Weerakoon did the damage with the ball for Seabrook, taking five wickets. His new ball partner in crime, Hitesh Bavarva, claimed three scalps. “They both bowled out of their skin today on a wicket that was really low and slow,” Edwards said. “There wasn’t much in it for the quicks, but they bent their backs and did a fantastic job.” Seabrook is 3-40 in its second dig – an overall lead of 64. Walgama Eranga plays an extravagant shot during his innings for Seabrook on Saturday. (Mark Wilson) 12380789-ACM10-18 10063563-01
Venue switch for Werribee Werribee has been forced to re-locate its final VFL practice match against Essendon to RAMS Arena in Craigieburn this Saturday from noon. The game was supposed to be played at the redeveloped Avalon Airport Oval, but issues beyond the club’s control have forced the game to be moved. Werribee communications co-ordinator Mitchel Brown said the club was disappointed the new-look ground would not be available for a dress rehearsal. “The club hopes its supporters and members understand that a project of this size will always encounter minor issues, especially so close to completion when the fit-out takes place in readiness for full-time occupancy,” he said. Werribee’s first game at Avalon Airport Oval will take place on April 14 when it plays Casey Demons under lights in round two of the VFL season. 88 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ MARCH 21, 2018
Werribee will be keen for a good showing when it takes to the field against Essendon. Werribee was never in the hunt in its most recent practice match, going down to Geelong by 67 points at GMHBA Stadium last Saturday. Trailing four goals to one at quarter-time, Werribee never recovered, conceding nine of the final 12 goals of the match. But it was an inexperienced Werribee side that fronted up. The Black and Gold’s were without the resting Kurt Aylett, Andrew Hooper, Josh Corbett, Ryley Barrack, Ethan Petterwood and Nick Coughlan. Werribee has secured the services of young gun Cassidy Parish, the reigning Geelong Falcons best-and-fairest winner. The 18-year-old ball magnet is the younger brother of Essendon midfielder Darcy Parish. Lance Jenkinson
