Bulldogs’ grand victory
(Marco De Luca)
Point Cook pulled off an upset victory over Yarraville Seddon in a David versus Goliath battle in the Western Region Football League division 2 grand final on Sunday. The Bulldogs, who were the underdogs, inflicted minor premier Yarraville Seddon its first defeat on the biggest day of the season. Questions raised over the WRFL’s decision to put the Bulldogs, who crossed from the Victorian Amateur Football Association this season, straight into division 2, bypassing the division 3 clubs, were put to rest when the Bulldogs saluted in the grand final by seven points. It was a big weekend for Point Cook football, with Point Cook Centrals winning its first premiership in division 3 on Saturday, while Hoppers Crossing moved through to this Saturday’s division 1 grand final. ■ For

Council’s secret tip land grab By Alesha Capone Wyndham council has purchased a 2.5 hectare property near the Wests Road tip in Werribee, but has refused to say how much it spent. The council’s purchase of the land was only revealed recently when VCAT heard a case between the council and the Western Region Environment Centre about the proposed expansion of the tip. Tribunal documents said that for the purpose of odour modelling, 10 “sensitive receptor locations” had been identified near the tip, the
closest within 170 metres of the site boundary to the west. “This property has been recently purchased by the council with conditions allowing the current occupier to remain in the dwelling for the immediate future, following which the council would assume occupation of the property,” the documents said. Star Weekly asked the council why it purchased the land, what its plans for the site were and how much was spent acquiring the property. The council’s chief financial officer Binda
Gokhale, said the property, located in the vicinity of Wests Road, was purchased in June, 2016. “The property comprises of a dwelling and sheds and is zoned as Farming Zone,” Ms Gokhale said. “The property was sold to council with a long-term lease to a local resident. Council is always seeking and considering opportunities to augment its landholdings and this acquisition will assist in the long-term management and operations of the RDF (refuse disposal facility).” Ms Gokhale said there were “no specific expansion plans for this site”. In response to
a question about how much the property had cost, Ms Gokhale said: “The purchase price was based on assessed market values at the time of purchase.” Western Region Environment Centre director Harry van Moorst said the centre did not oppose the purchase of the property. But he said the centre would like to know if the council was considering the purchase of other properties within the tip’s odour zone. Mr van Moorst said that in recent years a number of residents and business located near the tip had complained about odour issues.

Man killed in Ring Road crash A 34-year-old Hoppers Crossing man died following a horrific accident on the Western Ring Road on Tuesday morning. The man was a passenger in a truck when he and the driver, a 23-year-old Hoppers Crossing man, stopped in the emergency lane on the Western Ring Road near Furlong Road, Greensborough-bound, about 7.20am. Detective Senior Sergeant Gerry Clancy told 3AW the pair had gotten out to adjust the straps on their load when the 34-year-old was hit and killed by a passing crane truck. “From what we can gather, the crane truck
was straddling the far left lane and emergency lane and has collided into the rear of the truck,” he said. “It pushed the truck a number of metres and veered off the road. “The crane truck is a left-hand drive, it’s mind boggling as to why he didn’t observe the stationary truck.” A man in his 20s and man in his 30s were taken to Sunshine Hospital in a stable condition with no obvious injuries. A witness who was driving along the ring road about the same time said the truck looked like it had pulled over into the emergency lane
after a large, black plastic tank fell off the back just before Ballarat Road. “The black tank was in the middle of the left lane and everyone was slamming on the brakes to avoid it and it was causing chaos. The truck pulled up further along,” he said. The horrific crash caused all Greensborough-bound lanes to be closed to traffic, with cars diverted to Ballarat Road during the peak hour rush. “There were hideous scenes out there this morning,” Chris Miller from VicRoads told 3AW.
Mr Miller said many of those in the traffic control centre saw the horrible crash. He urged those who might have been driving past and saw the scene to seek support. “It rattled us all this morning – it was not a nice scene,” he said. “There were lots of people driving past, they could have had kids in the car. There are support services out there.” He said those who felt affected by the incident should call the Road Trauma Support Services Victoria on 1300 367 797. – The Age

Children will enjoy an artistic twist on a festival tradition at Saltwater Community Centre in Point Cook next week. Some Asian communities celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival, also known as the moon or lantern festival, to mark the end of harvest and the fullest moon of the year, about September 24. One of the festival’s traditional activities is the sharing and eating of round mooncakes.
The state government has announced that volunteer firefighters in the Hoppers Crossing CFA will remain based at their current station at 115 Derrimut Road, rather than moving to a new station in Tarneit. The Minister for Emergency Services James Merlino made the announcement in a statement last week. “The Hoppers Crossing Fire Brigade has a proud history of serving the community for more than 40 years,” Mr Merlino said. “This decision will also help the brigade recruit new volunteers in Melbourne’s fast-growing western suburbs.” The Hoppers Crossing Fire Brigade was established in 1977 and has 72 volunteers. In the 2017-18 financial year the brigade attended 1592 callouts as either the primary or secondary response brigade. The state government is building a $5.4 million CFA fire station at 417 Derrimut Road, Tarneit, which is expected to open in December. In June, during CFA operations officer Alex Batty said the Tarneit station had been designed for 30 career staff plus volunteers. But, according to last week’s announcement, the volunteer firefighters will stay in Hoppers Crossing, while the Tarneit station will house career firefighters. Mr Merlino’s statement said Hoppers Crossing Fire Brigade’s volunteer members had expressed “a strong wish to remain at their existing home”. Two volunteer brigade appliances will remain at the Hoppers Crossing station.

Kevin Hillier calls for a Wyndham council overhaul
G
uilt by association is often unfair, but sometimes it just has to be the call. Our current council should throw the keys on the table and walk away. At the very least, some leadership needs to be shown or this group will be remembered as the most flawed to represent us in history. We have councillors in court for various reasons, councillors on leave to allow them to run for political positions, councillors using their position and their media space to not so subtly campaign for political parties … the list goes on. The whole lot should quit and, as has happened in the past, administrators should be appointed. This is not a two bob dog and pony show. This is a multi-million dollar business that is being run as if it is a community service club from the 1950s. Let’s banish the robes and orb and replace them with business skills, work ethos and vision for the future. The business of council has outgrown those who generally take on the job, because those with the necessary skills are in demand
elsewhere in the workforce. While this does not apply to every single councillor, it does cover the majority. The City of Wyndham is a big business and should be run accordingly.
W
e all love a good underdog story and sport continues to supply manna from heaven. The Point Cook Bulldogs Football and Netball Club was still celebrating its win in the inaugural WRFL netball competition a few weeks ago when its senior men’s team won the WRFL division 2 flag on Sunday. The Bulldogs – in their first season in the WRFL, having transferred from the VAFA – defeated the unbeaten Yarraville Seddon Eagles. It’s a truly remarkable achievement. If Hoppers Crossing was to win the WRFL division 1 flag this weekend against the might of Deer Park, that would eclipse anything seen in recent years. Deer Park is going for its sixth premiership in a row. Sport, though, has an amazing ability to produce the unexpected. We can only wait and see. â–

Khan’s court appeal dropped By Alesha Capone Wyndham councillor Intaj Khan has withdrawn an appeal over his conviction for the incomplete and late filing of ordinary returns. Cr Khan was convicted and fined $26,000 at the Sunshine Magistrates Court in July on two counts of failing to submit on time ordinary returns between February, 2016, and February, 2017, three counts of failing to disclose companies in which he held office and three counts of failing to disclose companies in which he held a financial interest. At a County Court appeal hearing on Friday,
Judge Sarah Dawes warned Cr Khan’s defence lawyer that her “client is at risk”. She said she found Cr Khan’s “blatant disregard of his obligations to the community as astounding”. Defence lawyer Sarah Keating told the court Cr Khan admitted to failing to submit his ordinary returns to the council on time. She said that, in relation to failing to disclose companies in which he held office or held a financial interest, these companies were all “shelf companies” that had never traded or been active. She said Cr Khan had made an “honest and reasonable mistake” in not declaring his
interest in, or positions at, these companies and described his offences as at the “lower end” of the scale. She said Cr Khan held a leadership position at two registered training organisations. She said the organisations employed up to 25 people, whose jobs could be in jeopardy if he could not retain his leadership role. Ms Keating said the convictions could have a “significant” impact on Cr Khan when travelling. She told the court that Cr Khan, a 45-year-old father of five, had qualified as an engineer after studying at a Queensland university, had “a good work ethic” and had made “a significant
contribution to the community as a councillor”. But Judge Dawes said: “I don’t accept the submissions and your client is at risk.” She questioned how Cr Khan’s offending could be described as “at the lowest end, when it’s persistent offending”. In regards to Cr Khan serving as a councillor since 2012, she asked: “Isn’t it critical that someone in that position has an understanding of what their obligations are under the Local Government Act?” Ms Keating and Cr Khan conferred for a short period, after which Ms Keating told the court that the appeal was withdrawn.
Music man’s high note As a music producer and songwriter, Jhay Cabrera – aka Jhay C – usually works behind the scenes to help create a hit song. But the Point Cook resident will be in front of the cameras for a new Channel Seven television show called All Together Now, in which he appears as one of 100 music experts. The show gives singers 90 seconds to impress the experts, with the winner receiving a $100,000 prize in the final episode. Although the release date of the program is yet to be announced, eagle-eyed viewers may have spotted Cabrera on promos which have been airing for the show in recent weeks. Cabrera said he believed television audiences would enjoy the program because of its “fun and lightheartedness”. “It’s about having the best time and singing along with singers who truly connect with you,” he said.
Working as a producer and engineer in Melbourne and Sydney with Studios 301, his songs have featured in more than 100 television shows including American Ninja Warrior, Devious Maids, The Young and the Restless and Stuck in the Middle, and the Hugh Jackman film Logan. The theme song of Channel Nine’s drama Doctor Doctor is also one of Cabreras. He even reached the US top 20 with the song Slay by Nia Sioux from Dance Moms and the ARIA top five with Beautiful, by Sarah De Bono from The Voice. “I always get a pleasant surprise when my kids hear them [my songs] on TV and tell me, ‘That’s your song dad’,” Cabrera said. Alesha Capone Jhay C will be appearing in the new TV show All Together Now. (Damjan Janevski)

Council declines carpark plan By Alesha Capone Wyndham council has rejected a proposal to buy land for a long-stay carpark in Williams Landing. Responding this month to a petition signed by 194 residents, a council report stated the council would face a “significant financial risk” if it bought land to build a carpark. The petition, presented to the council in December last year, requested the council buy
land in the Williams Landing town centre to develop into a long-stay carpark, introduce paid parking in the town centre and permit parking in surrounding residential streets. A council report acknowledged the petition was the result of a lack of parking available at the Williams Landing station, concerns associated with parking at the Target headquarters and extensive development expected in the area. But it stated the council would face a
“significant financial risk”. “Apart from the cost, its location may not suit the final form of the town centre and could create additional unknown traffic issues,” the report stated. The report also labelled the request for permit parking as “premature”. It stated the council would continue to advocate to the state government for improved car parking conditions, additional bus services and cycling facilities for commuters
at the Williams Landing station. Cr Mia Shaw said a lack of parking at train stations was an issue affecting not only Williams Landing, but other stations in Wyndham. But she said ratepayers should not have to foot the bill to build more carparks. “I would never support ratepayers’ money being used to actually fix a problem that is within the realm of the actual state government,” Cr Shaw said.
Triple treat for writer Young Point Cook resident Margaret has been recognised as a talented wordsmith, winning three prizes in an international competition run by Western Union Writers group. The Werribee-based group’s annual Imagination Creation contest for young writers is open to entrants from around the world. This year, the competition received more than 485 entries. Margaret, 12, won first prize in the story category for those aged 11 to 14 and second prize in the age group’s poetry section. She also received an award aimed at recognising a promising young Wyndham author. Margaret said that when she opened a letter from the Western Union Writers about the competition results, she was not expecting to learn she would receive three prizes. “It was a surprise for me, but a good one,” she said. Margaret said her winning story, of about 1000 words, was based on raising awareness
of depression, while her poem was called Momento Mori. “I remember back in grade prep, I started writing stories and the teacher complimented me,” she said. “I said to mum, ‘I want to be a writer’.” But she said that nowadays, she would prefer to keep writing as a hobby. “I like the flow of it – making something out of nothing,” she said. Margaret said she often submitted her stories to websites and was helping a friend to create a web comic and an animatics video for YouTube. Alesha Capone

DPP fights killer mum’s sentence By Melissa Iaria, The Age The Court of Appeal’s decision to reduce the jail term for a woman who killed three of her children and tried to murder another is being appealed by the Director of Public Prosecutions. Akon Guode was last year jailed for 26 and a half years, with a minimum 20 years, for murdering her four-year-old twins, killing her 16-month-old son and trying to murder a fourth child by driving them into a lake in 2015.
Four-year-old twins Hangar and Madit and 16-month-old Bol all drowned, but their older sister, now eight, was rescued by residents and emergency service workers. Guode appealed against her sentence and the Court of Appeal last month cut the jail term to 18 years. She must serve 14 years before she is eligible for parole. Chief Justice Anne Ferguson found Guode’s state of mind was disturbed when she drove into the lake, as a result of the traumatic birth of her youngest child, Bol. Guode underwent life-saving surgery after Bol’s birth.
Chief Justice Ferguson and judges Phillip Priest and David Beach said they had not “lost sight of the fact that three vulnerable children lost their lives” and a fourth nearly did, but the Sudanese refugee’s situation was “pitiable”. In war-torn Sudan, Guode saw her husband killed and was then raped until she was unconscious. She fled in 2003 with three daughters to Uganda. The appeal judges found Guode “fatefully and irredeemably breached” her children’s trust when she drove them into the lake, but “her capacity to make calm and rational
decisions was severely compromised by a mental condition”. On Friday, Director of Public Prosecutions Kerri Judd QC filed an application to appeal the decision to cut Guode’s sentence. Guode has already served three years, meaning she could be released in just over a decade although she faces being deported on release. Guode pleaded guilty to two counts of murder, one of attempted murder and one of infanticide. AAP, with Adam Cooper
College doco a big hit A documentary starring a young pupil from Al-Taqwa College in Truganina has won an award at an international film festival. The five-minute doco, in which six-year-old Saida appears, is called Hear In My Shoes. The film won the Judges’ Choice – School Documentary award at the 10th annual international Focus On Ability Short Film Festival earlier this month. Hear In My Shoes focuses on the struggles that Saida, who has a hearing impairment, can face and how the school community can help her, for example by speaking clearly and tapping her on the shoulder before talking. The documentary was made by Obayda Kannouj and Pongky Nataatmaja from the college’s media department, along with the Student Services Department, Miriam Haroun, head of grades foundation one and two, other staff and students. Ms Kannouj, Mr Nataatmaja and college
deputy principal Mohammad Hallak attended the festival’s awards ceremony in Sydney, where they were presented with the award in front of 650 people. The school won a Toshiba electronics package valued at $7000. Ms Kannouj said that in addition to raising awareness, the short film had made teachers and students more aware of the daily struggles Saida faced. “She’s been treated like a star and all the students just want to be her friend,” Ms Kannouj said. “The short documentary is a strong communication tool – it speaks to the heart … in an entertaining and straightforward manner. “The video led to students feeling empowered since it developed ways they can best communicate with Saida.” Alesha Capone

A Good Month for Werribee Opening the Expanded Werribee Mercy Hospital It has been a very exciting month for Werribee. It was a privilege to attend the opening of the Andrews Government’s $85 million expansion of the Werribee Mercy Hospital.
Completing the Duncans Road Interchange Long have I advocated for the completion of the Duncans Rd interchange! And now it’s now becoming a reality with the start of construction. Good roads reduce stress; they make people’s lives easier. That’s why the Andrews Government funded the $1.8 billion Western Roads Upgrade, a record investment in improving roads and reducing congestion in Melbourne’s west.
This marvellous facility includes Wyndham’s first Critical Care Unit with 8 critical care beds, 6 new operating theatres, 64 extra inpatient beds, and a multilevel car park. Additionally, local residents will soon have access to the $200 million Joan Kirner Women’s and Children’s Hospital in Sunshine also funded by the Andrews Government. This will meet rising demand for maternity and paediatric services in Melbourne’s west.
This will be the second entry point recently added to the Princes Freeway, with the completion of the Sneydes Road full-diamond interchange in 2016. It has been a good month for Werribee, as we deliver the things that matter— whether it’s world-class hospitals, first-rate schools, boosting community safety, or better and safer roads.

Ms Sanjeevan won the Handmade Business Award category of the competition, which is run by The AusMumpreneur Network to celebrate mothers in business. “It was a total shock for me, I was not expecting it at all,” Ms Sanjeevan said. Ms Sanjeevan, along with her husband Jeeva, founded Light & Glo. Designs – which makes and sells boutique-style fragrance candles – in 2015. Ms Sanjeevan, a former doctor, said she used her scientific knowledge to create candle scents – for example, a peppermint and menthol candle which opens up people’s airways. The mother-of-three said Light & Glo.
Designs started after she made candles to give guests at her second son’s baby shower, and a friend requested more candles for Christmas. Ms Sanjeevan said she never dreamt the company – which also exports to New Zealand, Vanuatu and the United Kingdom – would become so successful. In 2016, the business opened a warehouse in Hoppers Crossing, which has five employees. Last year, Light & Glo. Designs won the New & Emerging section of the Wyndham Business Awards (WBA). This year, Ms Sanjeevan received the WBA’s Young Business Person of the Year gong and the company also won the Manufacture Small category. Alesha Capone

Bail breach stats on the decline By Alesha Capone Hundreds of bail-breaching offences have been committed in Wyndham within a 12-month period. Data from the Crime Statistics Agency reveals that in Wyndham, Victoria Police recorded 300 breaches of bail conditions between April last year and March this year (compared to 340 breaches within the previous 12 months). Out of the 300 offences, 163 involved people
failing to answer bail, 128 involved people contravening a conduct condition of their bail and nine involved people committing an indictable offence while on bail. Werribee was the top suburb for people to breach bail and bail conditions, with a total of 211 offences, followed by Hoppers Crossing on 55 offences. Point Cook, Wyndham and Tarneit recorded eight bail-related offences each. Wyndham Police Inspector Martin Allison said if a person charged with an offence was
released on bail, the onus was on them to stick to their reporting duties and conditions. “Beyond court attendance, a vast range of bail conditions can be set and include curfews, requirements to reside at a particular address or reporting requirements,” he said. “It’s encouraging to see breach of bail offences falling in Wyndham, which indicates more people are abiding by their bail conditions. “Another reason contributing to the reduction of bail-related offences could be that police are remanding more offenders rather
than releasing on bail.” Inspector Allison said police and the courts considered breaching bail as serious. “Local police, including those in Wyndham, target offenders wanted for failing to answer bail, prioritising offenders identified as being a high-risk to the community,” he said. “If someone has an outstanding warrant and wishes to avoid being arrested they should attend a station and get the matter sorted.” Anyone with information can contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
Fashion awards return The glamour and style of Fashion Awards Australia will be on show in Wyndham next month. The annual awards, of which Wyndham Cr Heather Marcus is the director and founder, will be held at the Encore Event Centre in Hoppers Crossing on Friday, October 12 from 7-11pm. The awards aim to recognise secondary school and TAFE students who are studying textiles or fashion, along with new and emerging designers. Everything from sustainable recycled wear through to formal gowns will be featured on the runway. Categories include garments made of calico, upcycled, wearable art, evening wear, costume/ fantasy, day wear, cocktail and long gowns. Cr Marcus said Fashion Awards Australia was a not-for-profit event that is run and organised by a team of hardworking volunteers. “The awards attract entrants Australia-wide
and have staged gala presentations for the past 20 years,” she said. “The committee members are amazed by the amount of dedication and hard work by the teachers and students that is extended to make these awards so successful year after year. “Teachers have remarked in the past that students who participate in the awards receive invaluable experience and that they will have a clearer picture of their future career.” Tickets to the event cost $85 per person.

MP flags election house change Western region MP Rachel Carling-Jenkins will contest the seat of Werribee in the November state election. Dr Carling-Jenkins will leave the upper house of Parliament to run for the lower house seat of Werribee, which has been held by Treasurer Tim Pallas since 2014. Dr Carling-Jenkins, who has spent four years serving as upper house western region MP, said she felt there needed to be “true competition” for the seat of Werribee, which has long been considered a safe Labor seat.
“I have grown to love the community of Werribee since opening up my office here almost four years ago,” Dr Carling-Jenkins said. She said that in the lead-up to the November 24 election, she would focus on “prioritising the needs of Werribee which are often forgotten”. Dr Carling-Jenkins said concerns often raised by constituents who contacted her office included a lack of police resources to cope with a growing population; the state government’s “limited vision” for schools, despite the high birthrate in Wyndham; and the specific infrastructure needs of the west.
“It is time for Werribee’s needs to be put front and centre – an independent member can do just that,” she said. Dr Carling-Jenkins said she had a “vision” for Werribee’s CBD of a Yarraville-style precinct to be built outside an upgraded Werribee station. Dr Carling-Jenkins was first elected to Parliament as a Democratic Labour Party member in the Western Metropolitan Region at the 2014 state election. Last year, she resigned from the DLP to join the Australian Conservatives. Last month, she left the Australian Conservatives to become an independent.

Young voice of Wyndham Fifteen-year-old Darby is hitting the airwaves at community radio station 88.9 Wyn FM. The year 9 student at Warringa Park School in Hoppers Crossing has joined the station’s Thursday morning breakfast show. The program, titled Seemed Like a Good Idea at the Time, airs between 6am and 10am with co-hosts Troy Boon and Jacqui. Darby said he emailed the station earlier this year, in the hope of getting work experience. “I’m really into radio and broadcasting,” he said. Mr Boon said that upon seeing Darby’s email, he invited him into the Werribee-based station for a tour – and asked him to join the show. Mr Boon, who started in radio at the age of 13, said Darby “reminded me of me”. Darby is not the only young voice on the radio show – Mr Boon’s 11-year-old daughter
Kyra also sometimes joins them for the program. Darby said he did not mind getting up at 5.30am in order to be at the station on time. “I’ve really enjoyed just the whole experience of getting up early, reading the weather and general co-hosting duties,” he said. “It has been a really good experience.” Darby, who said he was a “big fan” of Channel 7 and sports presenter Bruce McAvaney, said he hoped to work in radio or television in the future. “Mainly I’m into behind the scenes and production, but I’m also interested in being in front of the camera,” he said. Alesha Capone Darby has been co-hosting the Wyn FM breakfast show. (Damjan Janevski)

Jubilee celebrates water park By Alesha Capone Construction has begun on a $15 million private indoor water park in Wyndham Vale’s Jubilee estate. The attraction is set to become Australia’s first privately owned water park. Wyndham council approved plans for the water park in 2016. To be named Club Jubilee One, the water park will include a 25-metre lap pool, a leisure pool,
two indoor water slides, a gym and a junior fun zone with water cannons and ground sprays. The estate’s developer Lotus Living has appointed McCorkell Constructions to build the water park, the first of three recreation centres planned for Jubilee. Residents of the estate will receive a membership to the park. Lotus Living project director Daniel Smith said the water park had been designed to appeal to all age groups.
‘‘
We want to give our residents a place they can - Daniel Smith enjoy
’’
“This concept is an industry first and we want to continue to create a more unique community,” Mr Smith said. “In designing and creating the water park, we want to give our future residents a place
they can enjoy with their kids, grandkids and generations to come.” Jubilee will be home to more 7000 dwellings once its construction is completed, with about 20,000 residents expected to move in across the next 15 years. Plans for the 482-hectare estate include a 5.4-hectare town centre with 8000 square metres of commercial space; a 1.2-hectare neighbourhood centre and 77 hectares of parklands, sports fields and cycling paths.
Gifts perk up ambos The Werribee Craft Festival has donated a coffee machine and hamper to a Wyndham ambulance branch. Festival committee members Anne Marshall and Betty Parker presented the machine to paramedics from the Manor Lakes branch of Ambulance Victoria last Thursday. Ms Parker said the festival’s committee had spent $1000 raised through last year’s craft event on the coffee machine and hamper of vouchers and food. Paramedic team manager Dianne Angleton said the coffee machine was a “marvellous donation”. “It’s a wonderful gesture and we are completely thrilled,” she said. “It’s very appropriate for what our paramedics do, as we are a 24-hour branch and do drink a lot of coffee.” Ms Parker said the Werribee Craft Festival, a not-for-profit organisation, had been putting the profits from its annual event back into local charities and the Wyndham community
for four decades. The festival, which started in 1978, will celebrate its 40th anniversary this year. Donations raised by the festival in past years have helped organisations including the Wyndham Community and Education Centre, the Heathdale Community Centre, the Werribee Cancer Support Group, cat rescue group Purrs of Point Cook, the Country Women’s Association, Werribee RSL, the Werribee South Coast Guard, dance groups and retirement villages. This year’s Werribee Craft Festival will be held on the weekend of November 10 and 11 at the Encore Events Centre in Hoppers Crossing.

Students from Wyndham Central College in Werribee will showcase their Pasifika culture at a concert this weekend. The My Island Dream (MID2018) performance will be held in Sunshine North on Saturday, September 22. Ten schools from the northern and western suburbs, including Tarneit P-9 College and The Grange P-12 College, will participate in the show, which will feature singing, dancing and acting. The annual My Island Dream production is Melbourne’s biggest Pasifika event for schools, and aims to bring together students to celebrate their culture. The event was started in 2016 by the Westside Pasifika Youth Committee, Brimbank council and Vaiusu the Creators Space.
It features students whose families come from Samoa, Tonga, the Cook Islands, Fiji, Tahiti, Hawaii, Aotearoa, Niue and Tuvalu. Event director and Vaiusu owner Fipe Preuss said My Island Dream helped youths honour their identity, connection and community pride. “The youth have been working really hard within the schools and showing great leadership,” he said. My Island Dream will be held from 3-6pm (doors open 2pm) on Saturday at the Enjoy Church, 41 Lance Road, Sunshine North. General admission tickets: $10.

Werribee man Gary Dancey has been on a journey of recovery across the past decade after falling from a ladder and developing a bleed on his brain in 2008. Mr Dancey bravely pulled through several challenges, including about 10 operations, memory loss and learning to walk again. Next month he and a group of friends will tackle the half-marathon section of the Medibank Melbourne Marathon. Mr Dancey, 51, said he had been busy training in the lead-up to the event, which raises funds for several charities. He said that since his accident, he had suffered from recurring weakness along the left side of his body, but this had not put him off participating in the half-marathon. Mr Dancey said the accident occurred on February 20, 2008, while he was working as a carpenter in Sydney. He fell about three metres from a ladder, hitting his head on the ground. Paramedics had to use a defibrillator on Mr Dancey, who had passed out, before rushing him to hospital. Once there, surgeons removed part of his skull to relieve the pressure on his brain. Mr Dancey said that through extensive rehabilitation, he had been able to piece his life back together and had become “more easygoing” and “more compassionate”, especially towards people with a disability. “I’m now a bit more understanding – they don’t want people to feel sorry for them,” he said. The Medibank Melbourne Marathon will take place on Sunday, October 14. See melbournemarathon.com.au to register; entry fees vary from $25 to $210.

More than 200 school pupils visited the Werribee Open Range Zoo to celebrate Love Your Locals Day earlier this month. The youngsters, from 14 schools across Wyndham and Brimbank, took part in the day to learn about wildlife conservation and sustainability in the west. The children heard talks from experts about how Zoos Victoria is working to save local wildlife such as the critically endangered eastern barred bandicoot and orange bellied parrot. The pupils also presented their own ideas on sustainability and creating a safe habitat for animals. In addition, each school had the opportunity to name an eastern barred bandicoot from the zoo’s breeding program. Love Your Locals Day is a collaboration
between Werribee Open Range Zoo, Wyndham and Brimbank councils and primary schools. The zoo’s learning experiences manager, Michelle Howard, said that the Love Your Locals program aimed to support young people to create a greener western region by connecting with local wildlife. “With 30 per cent of Victoria’s animals listed as threatened, the conservation action of our young students is vital to fight species extinction,” Ms Howard said. “The Love your Locals program is a great way for students from a range of primary schools to come together and share the work they are doing to raise awareness about local species .” Alesha Capone

Works are streets ahead Work on three major road upgrade projects in Wyndham is now under way. The Minister for Roads Luke Donnellan and Tarneit MP Telmo Languiller visited Leakes Road in Truganina to mark the start of the works at the site, on Friday. The works are part of the $1.8 billion Western Roads Upgrade. Eight kilometres of new lanes are being added in each direction on Leakes Road, between Derrimut and Fitzgerald roads, along with 18 intersection upgrades. On Derrimut Road, an extra lane is being installed in each direction between Sayers Road and Dohertys Road, plus nine intersection upgrades. On Dunnings Road and Palmers Road, an extra lane will be added in each direction between Princes Freeway and Point Cook Road. There will also be 10 intersection upgrades and a bus lane in each direction from Wallace Avenue to Dunnings Road.

Ramp tickets go online Wyndham council will replace the manual ticket machines at the Werribee South Boat Ramp with an online system. Wyndham’s smart city portfolio holder Cr Aaron An said the council would scrap the ticket machines in favour of the PayStay app which allows motorists to buy parking tickets on a mobile phone. Cr An said the ticket machines would sometimes stop working, creating frustration for users. “With this new system, which is used in areas like Melbourne’s CBD, people will be able to use their phone to pay for parking or purchase a ticket from council in advance,” he said.

“We expect to introduce PayStay parking at the Werribee South Boat Ramp by mid-October. “Signage at the boat ramp will be updated to reflect the changes and wi-fi will be installed to ensure users can access the PayStay app and council’s website.” Cr An said the council would also write to all annual boat ramp ticket holders to notify them of the opportunity to renew their permits via the council’s website, rather than visiting the council’s offices.

Werribee Shire Council has approved in principle the establishment in the future of a large shopping centre on Housing Commission land with a frontage to Heaths Road. The site is midway between Tarneit and Derrimut roads on the south side of Heaths Road.
Under-age drinking, vandalism and street gang brawls will become rife in Laverton. That was the angry claim made by the centre manager of Laverton TRY Youth, Ms Loreen Visser, when she heard last week that the Werribee Council has decided to axe TRY Youth Services in Laverton.
An $80 million residential development at Point Cook announced last week is expected to open the doors for a further $20 billion expansion. The Urban Land Corporation (ULC) last Friday unveiled details of its 1799-lot Boardwalk housing project at the Forsyth Road/Princes Freeway site.
A new report by the RACV has called for $412 million of road network upgrades across Wyndham to keep up with the municipality’s growth. With more than 7000 residents moving in last year, Wyndham is Victoria’s fastest-growing local government area.

MY WYNDHAM Point Cook’s Katelyn Matheson, 20, started her cupcake business two years ago. She now has 20 employees, stores in Point Cook and Craigieburn and one set to open at Melbourne’s QV Centre this week. She chats with Alesha Capone.
I spent a lot of my time with my grandma in the kitchen. I learnt her secret sponge cake recipe, along with other secrets which have inspired me in my baking journey. How did you get started in business? It started out when I took some time off from TAFE, where I was studying a pastry chef course, after getting injured from falling down some stairs. I got bored just sitting on the couch, so I began baking at home. I started making a lot of cupcakes, it got pretty crazy, I was making about 5000 every week. I started doing some pop-up stores in Point Cook and people would also drive into my street to pick up the cupcakes, sometimes we would have a line of cars waiting. My neighbours, the poor things, came over and said, ‘What are you selling here?’ I gave them some cupcakes and explained. I still give them cupcakes, which they love. They say, ‘You’re the best neighbour’. After our first cafe came on board – the
owner tasted the cupcakes and loved them, so put in an order – I became so busy that my mum quit her job and started working full-time for me. She still works for me and my brother works part-time in accounts. And now my partner is involved full-time as a baker too, which is awesome. How long have you lived in Point Cook? My parents built a property here when I was five years old, then we moved to Williamstown for two years, and then moved back. I remember when my parents built the house out here, there was only one other house on the street. I remember it was all paddocks. What do you like about the area? I love the community feel, as soon as we opened here there were was such a strong sense of community. I also love the cafes, pretty much I love all the food out here. There is a good choice here – at the Point Cook town centre, I can have something different for lunch every day.

FOOD REVIEW
CONSIDER THE SAUCE Kenny Weir can’t wait to go crusin’ for more Ceylon fusion COLOMBO MIXED RICE
Meet Isuru Madusanka and Chiran Hemadasa – heroes of Melbourne food and restaurants. Not just the western suburbs, and not only in the cheap eats field. Though they are both of those, too. No – what they are doing at their fine establishment, Fusion Ceylon, warrants acclamation beyond any geographical or price restrictions. CTS has been a fan of the place since its doors opened a few years back. But there’s no doubt – based on the visits being used to compile this story – that the Fusion Ceylon crew has lifted its game; a lot. The food is cooked with flair and imagination, and presented beautifully, all the while fully retaining its funky Sri Lankan/Asian soul. And as the use of the word “fusion” in its title hints, there’s a lot of wok cooking going on here. That means wait times will rarely stretch beyond 15 minutes. Prices are ridiculously low. Much – but by no means all – of the fun and games is to be found on the regularly changing specials list. Singaporean chilli crab with egg fried rice and vegetable chop suey is a dream. The superb rice is fab, fluffy and freshly prepared. The simple vegetables on the side are very good. The shellfish component consists of three blue swimmer crabs. Even with that number, the amount of your actual crab meat to be had is modest – and getting at it is messy, sticky
FUSION CEYLON Address: 27 Watton Street, Werribee Phone: 0433 696 726 fun. But, hey, it IS all about fresh crab, the mess goes with the territory. The mild sauce has good flavour and the price is $16.50. Speaking of finger-lickin’ … spicy Kentucky-style fried chicken with biryani dazzles. I’m told my three pieces are coated in a mix that contains cumin, cayenne and cardamom. The taste, though, is rather muted – if anything I’d like to see this fried chicken really turbocharged with spices. There’s a tangy tamarind-based sauce to go with the poultry. And another gravy to go with the top-shelf biryani rice. On the side is a sticky eggplant pickle. This dish, too, costs an amazing $16.50. Colombo mixed rice ($13.50) comes from the regular menu. It comes with three meats (pork, chicken, beef), shrimp and a fried egg, with a plump skewer of chicken slathered with house-made tomato sauce on the side. This is a great Melbourne restaurant.

From there, we visited Linderhof Palace, a smaller, less opulent version of France’s Palace of Versailles, but nonetheless riveting in itself. Our tour concluded with a walk through the quaint village of Oberammergau, with its wood-carving shops and homes with painted murals. The following day was spent walking through
Munich’s CBD, including lunch (and a large beer) at Hofbrauhaus, then a stroll through the Viktualienmarkt (an incredible food market) and main shopping drag at Marienplatz. For those who have not been to Germany before, you will be amazed by the low prices and range of food and other items compared to most other European countries.
Our next stop was a tour of Dachau Concentration Camp – scene of more than 41,000 deaths, primarily during WW2. Incredibly moving, incredible waste of life. An experience to remember, always. On our final day we boarded a train for a trip to Salzburg in Austria, birthplace of Mozart and setting for the film and musical The Sound

It’s not the first city that springs to mind when planning a European vacation. But a visit to the southern Bavarian city of Munich should be on most travellers’ bucket list. The birthplace and home to Adolf Hitler’s Nazi party, Munich (or Muenchen – ‘by the Monks’) is the capital of Bavaria and Germany’s third largest city (behind Berlin and Hamburg). Primarily known for its breweries and world famous annual Oktoberfest beer festival, Munich is also the launching place for other delightful destinations. Our journey starts with a three-hour bicycle tour through the city (e-bikes are preferred), taking in historical landmarks, university campuses and points of interest. It’s a great way to explore and learn about a new town. Our tour took us through the English Gardens – a huge, informal public park where you can either enjoy a beer or watch surfers catch a wave on the man-made Eisbach River. Check out the top-rated tours from Tripadvisor to find a suitable tour, including a Hitler and Third Reich walking tour which takes you to the locations of some of Hitler’s famous speeches and Nazi landmarks. One of our highlights was a small group, full day tour to King Ludwig’s castle at Neuschwanstein – the castle that inspired Walt Disney’s Sleeping Beauty. Built on a hill at the base of the Alps, the 19th century castle is well worth a visit. The scenic 90-minute drive from Munich is a treat in itself. The rolling green pastures are littered with lazy, overfed cows and neat, classic Bavarian homes complete with window shutters and neatly stacked wood piles.

This one-stop hub is proving very attractive to residents in Melbourne’s metro west community. Mark Edmonds, Deputy Chair and Spokesperson of the Central Geelong Marketing Committee explains why. “Central Geelong has over 600 professional service providers offering expert and professional advice,” he says. “With two major hospitals there is a broad range of specialist medical and allied health services while major financial, legal and insurance businesses offer expert advice.” The city is well placed for the Wyndham area – within an easy 30 minute drive, plenty of affordable parking with great shopping, restaurants and cafes as well. It makes perfect sense to make Central Geelong your professional services centre.” The Central Geelong professional service providers, many with years of experience and each offering high-level expertise, are diverse in range. Ranging from architect firms and a shipping agency operation to artists and social assistance services, the list of professions in this vibrant hub numbers more than 600. While visitors take advantage of the convenience of accessing services, they can also check out the many eateries that are springing up in Geelong Central. There is also great shopping, cafes and restaurants, all close by in the walkable waterfront city.

Precious days at wool museum
STAR WEEKLY FEATURE
The Masters of Design has arrived in Geelong, with a bold new exhibition at the National Wool Museum to celebrate the city’s status as a UNESCO City of Design. Masters: Art of the Precious Metal Object is a premiere Australian exhibition showcasing spectacular design, exceptional works and authentic practice from 11 masters of contemporary Australian goldsmithing, silversmithing and enamelling. Curated by award-winning Victoria Edgar, a Geelong-based gold and silversmith, alongside NWM director Padraic Fisher, the Masters: Art of the Precious Metal Object exhibition reveals exquisite artistry. Mr Fisher says the exhibition features more than 60 pieces from 11 of Australia’s master gold and silversmiths and enamel artists. “Many of the works have been especially created for the exhibition,” Mr Fisher says. “Visitors can see the work of master Australian designers who include Kate Case, Joungmee Do, William Griffiths, Daehoon Kang, Helen Aitken-Kuhnen, Johannes Kuhnen, Leslie Matthews, Karl Millard, Philip Noakes, Debbie Sheezel and Christopher Sherwin. Running alongside Masters: Art of the Precious Metal Object is an exhibition celebrating the career of one of the first independent and most influential Australian interior designers, Marion Hall Best. Described as electrifying, vital and avant-garde, Best’s interior decorating schemes were unashamedly modern. Her interior decorating style vibrated with colour through her signature glazed painted finishes on walls and ceilings. With her work appearing in popular magazines and newspapers, exhibition display rooms and in her two shops in Queen Street, Woollahra (1939–74) and Rowe Street, Sydney (1949–61) as well as in private collections, Marion Hall Best was inspired by the modernist movement and colour theory of artists of the interwar years. She is attributed with introducing international modernism to the Australian market through importing furniture and furnishings from all over the world. Marion Hall Best: Interiors is a travelling exhibition from Sydney Living Museums.

The great fun of Geelong fishing? It’s really catching … It’s snapper season and, according to Charles Neal, Geelong Fishing Charter’s owner, they bite well at night. Charles, who captains the Corio Princess, reckons one of his night fishing cruises is just the thing whether you’re four or 104, able-bodied or physically challenged. “My new boat, purpose-built and flat-level, is designed to provide easy access for wheelchairs, strollers and walking aids, so if anyone thinks they have to miss out on their spot of fishing, that’s no longer the case,” Charles says. “We even have a disabled toilet on board – we’re the first to do this. “Our night cruises are fantastic for people who, because of sport or family commitments or the like, can’t get their fishing fix on the weekends. We leave from St Helens dock at 6pm and return at 10pm, from Tuesday to Thursday – weather permitting. “I’ll have the pizza oven on so there’s a hot slice of pizza ready and waiting for people when they board. We also have a barbecue and something sweet, such as scones and biscuits, as well as a fully stocked bar.” Charles says the bay looks absolutely beautiful at night. “Geelong at night, viewed from the bay, looks like a different city,” he says. “It’s a lovely town and the views are just great. “Aside from that, we make it very easy for people to relax. Everything is supplied. I’ve got a wonderful crew and any fish caught are cleaned and iced down, ready to take home.” The Corio Princess also takes to the bay every weekend – 8am-noon and 1-5pm – with pizza, snag in bread, rods, tackle, bait and Charles’ very own snapper burley included. Private charters for 15 to 30 people can be booked for any time. Social and sports clubs, business groups, birthday parties, school holiday kids and families, as well as nursing homes, are taking advantage of the bay’s good fishing – and they all find it just downright relaxing and loaded with fun. The cost is $70 for adults and $35 for 10-15 year olds; kids under 10 (accompanied by an adult) get the whole shebang for free. Bookings are essential. Geelong Fishing Charter.

Dive into AquaPulse School holidays are looking good for Wyndham kids, with AquaPulse pushing the excitement button in all its pools and two of Victoria’s largest waterslides. The incredible water world at AquaPulse is not only about flat-out fun, says health and fitness group manager Rod Gaut. “We also run women’s only swimming sessions on Thursday evenings,” Rod says. “These are designed to empower women of all ages and abilities to improve their health and wellness in a safe and private environment. “Another major attraction at both AquaPulse and Eagle Stadium are the spacious, well-equipped gyms, constantly manned by friendly, down-to-earth fitness coaches. We have a dedicated group of regulars who are always ready to welcome new members – and love meeting up for a chat and coffee in our cafe after breaking a sweat.” A WynActive “access all” membership gives access to both gyms, as well as the outdoor pool in summer. Fun and energetic group fitness classes, specifically designed for everyday people, couple with a variety of famous Les Mills classics, such as BodyStep and BodyPump. Low-impact aqua aerobics classes are also on the fitness menu. “Wyndham’s young families are loving our onsite childcare facilities at both venues. We have a caring and professional creche team whom kids enjoy getting to know, while parents get their own health and fun fix.” Physio4U, based on the ground floor of AquaPulse and open 4-7pm on Mondays, provides handson therapy for a range of conditions – from headaches to workplace injury rehabilitation. WynActive members get 25 per cent off initial consultation until the end of September. Kayla Michelle, an accredited dietitian, is also on the ground floor of AquaPulse. Kayla’s dietitian and nutrition services help clients achieve results via customised plans. She says lots of WynActive members are determined to become fit and healthy and make positive life changes. “These are the kinds of people I love working with,” Kayla says. “Those who want to manage weight, build muscle, manage diabetes and heart health or need advice on food intolerances will all benefit from tailored advice and education.” And a birthday party room is for hire, with guests getting priority access to waterslides as part of the cost. For more information, call AquaPulse on 8734 5678, Eagle Stadium on 8734 5677 or visit wynactive.com.au or facebook.com/WynActive.

A happy learning curve
The three-year-old kinder program at AquaPulse and Eagle Stadium has proven so successful that a new session has been added, says creche co-ordinator Coral Cotton. Enrolments are now being taken for this year’s final term and the first in 2019. Designed especially to help prepare three-year-olds for school, the program provides teaching about important life skills, such as independence and self-help, in a safe and nurturing environment. Coral believes a few hours away from parents each week helps kids build confidence and cultivates essential socialisation skills. “Kids in this special program get to take part in fun group activities, while simultaneously learning how to work in a group and with other personalities,” she says. “Activities such as cutting with scissors and playing with play-doh develop fine motor skills and strength, as well as teaching kids how to be patient, share, concentrate and follow instructions. “We’re running the program as a shorter day, from 12.30-3.30pm, to ensure the environment doesn’t overwhelm little ones.” Restructured programs run during school terms and include: • AquaPulse – 12.30-3.30pm, Monday or Tuesday.
Kids in this
special program get to take part
in fun group activities.
• Eagle Stadium – 12.30-3.30pm, Wednesday or Thursday. Enrolment packs can be found at the service desks in both centres or on the website. “If parents want to ask questions about the program, they’re welcome to email me at ccotton@westernleisureservices.com.au,” Coral says. “Interest can also be registered online and we’ll be in touch. Or parents are welcome to drop into either of the creches between 9.10am and 11.50am on weekdays or during kinder hours, Monday to Thursday.”

As footy fever reaches boiling point all over Melbourne and school holidays kick off, there’s not a better place for kids to be than Sanctuary Lakes Shopping Centre. If they’re Richmond fans, it gets even better – Dustin Martin will be in da house. Everyone’s favourite Tiger, Dusty will be at the centre on Wednesday, September 26, and he’ll be signing autographs and striking a pose for photos from 1.30pm. Centre manager Emily Grass says she’s expecting lots of excitement around Dusty’s visit in the lead-up to the grand final. “Dustin is such a cult figure in footy, with his distinctive tattoos and extraordinary talent on the ground,� she says. “I’m sure it won’t be just kids wanting to see him – there’ll be plenty of parents wanting to see him up close, too.�
Dusty a top draw for grand times
The centre will have free footy activities taking place from Monday to Friday, September 24-28. “During that week, between 11am and 2pm, our Craft Village outside Aldi will be the scene for all kinds of craft activities,� Emily says. “Kids can let their creative juices flow, making something to take home that shows their support for their favourite team. “We also have free face-painting, giveaways and loads more.� While the kids are happily entertained, parents can take advantage of shopping in peace. Anchored by Coles, K-Mart and Aldi, the centre offers a wealth of retail experiences. As well as well-known bakeries for coffees and pastries, there are eateries galore, with cuisines such as Malaysian, modern-Asian, Indian, Mexican and Aussie on the menu. Simpler options include pizza, kebabs, fish ’n’ chips and sushi – grab something to take home for a quick and easy dinner after expending energy dragging the kids away from all the activities. Perhaps mums can use the time to get their hair or nails done with several salons to choose from, or have a browse and check out what’s hot for spring/summer.
it won’t be just kids wanting to see Dustin Martin‌

In Melbourne, the sale of a house during a campaign rises from 63 per cent to 84 per cent when it is advertised in a newspaper. Data has been collated to create an industry service called Media Maximiser, which tags almost every property that comes on to the market with its original price, where it was advertised, when it went on the market and was finally sold, and the difference between the asking price and the final deal. This research is the first from a non-newspaper publisher that provides statistical evidence of the value of print.The amazing results have given publishers further evidence that print is still a powerful tool.2

This house, chock-full of style across about 35 squares, promises a fine family lifestyle. Adults are spoilt here, with their own suite behind double doors from an impressive entry way. It has floorboards, twin walk-in robes and an en suite with dual basins and spa, along with double sliding doors to a tranquil courtyard. Farther along, there’s an open floorboarded lounge room, while an open study and expansive porcelain-tiled living hub flank a covered deck. A theatre room is behind double sliding doors. Like the rest of the house, the kitchen is sleek. A massive waterfall stone island bench is the focal point, supported by 2pac cabinetry, large walk-in pantry and an Ilve six-burner cooker. Three other fitted bedrooms share a dual-basin bathroom. Included are heating and cooling, designer lightfittings, ducted vacuum, water tank and double garage with internal access.
On a corner block of about 730 square metres, this one can be leased as two separate residences or developed for business use – or the block could hold multiple dwellings, STCA. Families looking for a forever-home, with the bonus of an integrated self-contained unit for parents, teen or older offspring, will also be interested. The main house has a spacious L-shaped lounge-dining room that connects with a tiled family-meals zone. The kitchen, with brekkie bench, has a 900mm cooktop and a wall oven. Of the three bedrooms, the main has a walk-in robe and en suite. A covered timber deck abuts a spacious concrete patio, while the yard is blessed with an array of fruit trees.

This recently built house in Jubilee estate is a winner for a young family, downsizer or a savvy investor who can be confident about purchasing in a growth corridor. On about 250 square metres, the house has three fitted and grey-carpeted bedrooms, the main with a split-system, walk-in robe and en suite. The colour palette all through is soft-grey, complemented by white roller blinds. As well as a study nook, there’s a tiled family-meals zone accessing a covered alfresco area which looks out to lawn, mulched garden beds and pebbled areas. The kitchen has plenty of storage in grey woodgrain-look, Caesarstone benches, grey splashback tiles, a dishwasher and a 900mm cooker. The property also has ducted heating and cooling, security alarm and a remote-controlled garage with internal access. Leased until April 2019 at $320 a week.
In independent over-55s Federation Village, within a walk of Watton Street’s cafes and boutiques, this sparkling north-facing residence is a treat. Residents have access to facilities, a pool and lawn bowls among others, while security is another drawcard. The property, with a covered alfresco area (also serving as a carport) and pretty gardens, has a spacious living area with matte floor planks and venetian blinds at windows, as all through. The kitchen has ample white cupboards, a brekkie bench topped with charcoal laminate, a white glass splashback and underbench oven. Laundry facilities are tucked away.

Constructed of sandstone bricks, this Belani Builders-designed 42-square residence perches on nearly 755 square metres in prized Wattle Grove estate – five minutes from Watton Street and station and a stroll from several good schools. Families will love the property for its five bedrooms, one of which could be set up as a TV snug – not that there’s a scarcity of living space, because there are three distinct areas for varying occasions. Another big family drawcard is the solar-heated pool out back. It’s flanked on two sides by lawn and, on another, a slightly raised timber deck for setting up

sun lounges and summer drinks trays. This entire area links with a gabled pergola with shelter blinds. Beyond a pristine front garden, entry to the house is under a fretworked verandah to a long walkway laid with Victorian ash floorboards. A taupe-carpeted open lounge room is a step down from the walkway; it has a burgundy accent wall and elegant cream drapes and matching pelmet. The same window treatment is in the main bedroom opposite. This has walk-through robes and an en suite with an enclosed toilet and a raised bowl atop soft-chocolate laminate.
The ash floorboards continue into the large living hub, which has a gas log fire set against a soft-grey accent wall, the same shade as the drapes in here. Double doors then reveal a spacious rumpus/theatre room decorated the same way. This room, as does the hub, opens to the aforementioned pergola. The large kitchen, with access to the drive-through double garage via a walk-in pantry, has an island bench topped with Caesarstone, loads of Tassie oak cabinetry, dishwasher and Ilve 900mm cooker. The first of four secondary fitted bedrooms is downstairs. It neighbours the

With interesting shapes and angled ceilings, bedrooms share a skylit shower room and separate toilet, while there are two spacious in-roof storage areas. The property also has ducted heating, refrigerated cooling, ducted vacuum and large garden shed. Carole Levy 43 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ SEPTEMBER 19, 2018

PRAYER TO THE VIRGIN MARY (never known to fail). O most beautiful flower of Mount Carmel, fruit of vine, splendorous of Heaven, Blessed Mother of the Son of God, immaculate Virgin, assist me in this my necessity. O Star of the Sea, help me and show me herein, you are my Mother. O Holy Mary, Mother of God, Queen of Heaven and Earth, I humbly beseech you from the bottom of my heart to succour me in my necessity. There are none as that can withstand your power. O show me, here, you are now my Mother. O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee. (3 times). Holy Mary, I place this course in your hands (3 times). Thank you for your mercy towards me and mine. AMEN. (This prayer must be said 3 days and after that the request will be granted and the prayer must be published.) MC.

SPORT Heberle ends his career on a high note “It was hard work across the board from all of us for the full four quarters.” Heberle was quick to praise Point Cook coach Ian Denny. Denny has created that team-first approach at the kennel. “He’s a fantastic mentor,” Heberle said. “He puts the club first 100 per cent of the time and it’s never about him. “He’s an inspiration to all the players. “Across the board, we just love and respect him. “He’s a great man and we can’t do it without him.”
■ Well done to Point Cook Centrals on their historic grand final win last Saturday at Avalon Airport Oval. The club has come back from the brink, to now be headed to division two in 2019. The mistakes of the past should be the guiding light into a new era for the club, which has gone through a metamorphosis in the past two years. The truth is, the workload will increase on the committee and the workers around the club because the bar has been raised. There is time to celebrate and that is well deserved, then the new ball game starts.

Epic flag for Point Cook By Lance Jenkinson It was three cheers for Point Cook and three years of tears for Yarraville Seddon after the Western Region Football League division 2 grand final. The Bulldogs produced a gigantic upset with a seven-point victory in an epic season decider at Avalon Airport Oval on Sunday, consigning the Eagles to a heartbreaking third consecutive grand final defeat. With the Bulldogs having been on the receiving end of two heavy defeats to Yarraville Seddon in the home-and-away rounds and a semi-final loss two weeks earlier, few gave them a shot of winning the David versus Goliath grand final. Bulldogs coach Ian Denny was a believer, though – and so were his players. “We always thought we were a chance,” Denny said. “We kept believing … we only had to beat them once.” What an epic grand final it turned out to be. After Point Cook had skipped away to a 34-point lead 10 minutes into the second quarter, Yarraville Seddon reeled in the margin to a more manageable 10 points by half-time. From that point on, it was a decider that had everyone on the edge of their seats. The momentum swings were constant. Yarraville Seddon made Point Cook pay for its inefficiency in attack early in the third quarter, drawing level after goals to Matthew Taylor and Jesse Varsamakis. Then Point Cook wrestled the game back on to its terms with goals in quick succession to Matthew Poland and Alex Grigg. The Bulldogs had ramped up their defensive pressure to the levels they were producing in the early stages of the match. But they wasted a number of scoring opportunities, finishing with 2.6 for the third quarter, so you had to wonder if that would come back to haunt them when Jack Hargreaves goaled for Yarraville Seddon before three-quarter time to cut the margin to 10. The fourth quarter was full of tension. Taylor kicked his second of the game for Yarraville Seddon to reduce the margin to three. The Eagles were doing all the attacking, but they could not find a way past Point Cook defensive mainstays Nick Weir, Todd Caulfield, Jed Eastwood and captain Mason Kip. “They held it together for most of the day,” Denny said of his defence. With the scoreboard stuck on a three-point margin in Point Cook’s favour, the game was crying out for a match-winner. Up stepped Bulldog veteran full forward Kirk Heberle. He gathered the ball in the forward pocket, sidestepped a tired Yarraville Seddon
IN THE DOGHOUSE
■ The other Point Cook football team, the Bulldogs, did the impossible, defeating Yarraville Seddon Eagles in the division two grand final last weekend. What a fairytale finish to the club’s first season in the WRFL, knocking over the previously unbeaten Eagles. President Ivo Havard – no stranger to club success in the west – and his hard-working committee have had their decision to leave the VAFA vindicated in the best possible way, with a premiership cup. Senior coach Ian Denny, in his fifth year at the club, is a smart football operator and has built great support on and off the field. Whether the club takes the giant leap to division one is yet to be ratified but I hope it does, as I believe it will be a strong force in the future of the competition. ■ The first season of senior women’s football in the WRFL saw the all-conquering Manor Lakes team rightly crowned premiers, defeating a gallant Caroline Springs in the grand final under lights at Avalon Airport Oval. The conditions were not the best but the women gave it their all in the biting cold to finish off a historic season. The competition will blossom on the back of the growing participation and interest. ■ You would have forgiven the Hoppers Crossing senior players if they were looking for a solarium to do their post match recovery rather than the icy waters of Williamstown beach last Saturday afternoon. The Warriors won a close fought slog against the Altona Vikings at Point Gellibrand in challenging conditions. The low scoring encounter (3.9 (27) - 3.12 (30) was indicative of the weather more than the skills of the two teams. The grand final between Hoppers Crossing and Deer Park looks a one-sided affair but sport history is littered with the casualties of supposedly unbeatable teams.

defender and snapped around the corner for what would be a game-sealing third goal. Jessi Lampi claimed the Rex Swann Medal for best-on-ground. “He’s just a contested ball mongrel,” Denny said. “They go at him all the time, they all try to clean him up, but he still makes the game happen.” Matthew Poland arguably had claims on the medal, but only one is handed out. Poland accumulated possessions at will in the midfield for the Bulldogs. Point Cook’s first senior WRFL premiership was won in its inaugural season in the league.
The Bulldogs transferred their seniors from the Victorian Amateur Football Association in the off-season. Denny believes this is just the start of something big for Point Cook. “There’s a massive amount of kids coming through this club,” he said. “In five years time, there’s going to be an absolute juggernaut coming at the Western Region Football League. “Our job at the moment, as gatekeepers of the time, is to try and put us in the best position to make that pathway successful for those young blokes coming through.”

Kirk Heberle embodied what made Point Cook great in its first season in the Western Region Football League division 2. Instead of focusing on his own superb game-sealing snap goal that got the crowd to its feet and secured a seven-point win over Yarraville Seddon in a grand final upset at Avalon Airport Oval on Sunday, the full forward deflected questions about that inspirational goal and went on to praise the teamwork that lifted the Bulldogs to the premiership. It was Heberle’s last act in his football career as he announced his retirement after the game. “It’s not about individual stuff for me,” he said. “I’m just happy to go out a winner and you couldn’t ask for anything more. “We put a bit of breathing space [with that goal], so it was just keep doing all the one per centers that we did all day and if we did that, we’d get the result and we got it in the end.

Manor Lakes ends the season with a perfect storm Manor Lakes is invincible. The Storm have completed a perfect season in the inaugural Western Region Football League senior women’s competition, securing the premiership with a 51-point win over Caroline Springs at Avalon Airport Oval on Saturday evening. The Nathan Smithwick-coached team went through the home-and-away rounds with a 13-0 record and an out-of-this-world percentage of 2708.93 with a league-best 1517 points for and a stingy 56 against. There were no hiccups in the finals either, with the Storm easily beating Caroline Springs in the semi-final and the grand final to make it a flawless 15-0 season. “It’s unbelievable to go through the season 15-0, it’s ridiculous,” Smithwick said. “We’ve got the most competitive team that you’ll ever come across.
Alysha Bettels emerges with the football for Manor Lakes in Saturday’s grand final. (Damjan Janevski)
“They don’t like losing one bit. “It showed in the grand final.” Aside from some early pressure, Manor Lakes had the grand final on its own terms.
The Storm held Caroline Springs to just one goal and managed to post eight of their own in wet and windy conditions. “They did come out hard,” Smithwick said. “They were very physical and started well. “Once we settled, we put the scoreboard pressure on and that was the end of that.” Gemma Anderson was the best-on-ground in the grand final. The Manor Lakes midfielder was arguably the player of the finals series. “She was definitely best-on in both of our finals games,” Smithwick said. “If the VFL coaches aren’t looking at her, they should be looking harder. “Her skill level is double above this competition. “Her smarts in the wet, she’s kicking goals from the boundary line, taking overhead marks, you name it she can do it.”
Vice captain Lindsay Newton was a fine two-way player in defence for Manor Lakes. Newton was good with her one-on-one defending and breathtaking with her ball movement in transition. “She set the game up for us,” Smithwick said. Cara Dunshea threw her body on the line time and again in a stellar captain’s game. Alysha Bettels was impenetrable in defence and a major reason why Caroline Springs could not get any scoreboard pressure. Jaimi Paten and Jessica Court were the others to standout for the Storm. Smithwick paid tribute to every player who stuck to their task. “You can just keep going and name them all,” he said. “They all play as a team and as a coach that’s all I’m after.” Lance Jenkinson

Warriors win right to final

Sharks create history By Lance Jenkinson Point Cook Centrals have snapped up their first senior premiership in the Western Region Football League. The Sharks have faced some uncertain times in their six years as a senior club, undergoing a name change in the off season to better reflect their geographic base. But the struggles were proven worth it when they secured a first flag with a 25-point win over Wyndham Suns in a brutal division 3 grand final at a rain-swept Avalon Airport Oval on Saturday. Sharks coach Darren Findlay was as elated as anyone at the club, but confessed to feeling “a bit of relief”. “Really happy for the club to come from where we’ve come from – this is one for our club in general,” he said. It was all Point Cook Centrals in the first quarter. Only errant kicking for goal – 2.6 for the quarter – stopped the Sharks from opening up an unassailable quarter-time lead. Staring a 17-point deficit in the face at quarter-time, the Michael Boothey-coached Wyndham Suns upped the ante in the second 74 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ SEPTEMBER 19, 2018
quarter and nearly had the game on level terms at half-time, trailing by four points. Daniel Hovey was superb for the Suns in the second term with a long-range set shot goal and a nice snap goal. Hovey’s influence on the game waned thereafter, though, when he picked up an injury in a collision and was forced to the bench for treatment. Wyndham began the second half promisingly with Paul Tomelty, Josh Stephens and Hayden Iannacone influential in the midfield, while captain Asher Kirk detonated a number of Point Cook Centrals forward thrusts from centre half-back. Then came the key period in the match, midway through the third quarter. Brydon Coles snapped an eye-catching goal to spark a run of four unanswered Point Cook Centrals majors. The big moment of the game came soon after when forward Michael Szulc marked on the 50-metre arc, only to be felled by Suns veteran Aaron Borg with a mistimed spoil that got Szulc flush on the jaw. Borg’s careless act generated a 50-metre penalty, with Szulc slotting home the goal.
“I was pretty lucky wearing a mouthguard,” Szulc said. “He got me right in the jaw. Look, it’s footy, it’s hard footy.” After a period of dominance, Point Cook Centrals led by 24 points at three-quarter time. If that margin was not enough to kill off Wyndham, Dean Henderson’s dribbled goal early in the fourth did the trick. It was officially party time for the Sharks. Brent Sheean, who worked tirelessly on the ball for Point Cook Centrals all game, won the Henry Turner Medal for best-on-ground. Szulc, Henderson, Coles and Tyler Huynh were never too far away from any of the Sharks’ good moves. But Findlay was not about to focus on individual feats. “In all honesty, we had 22 contributors, which was really important for us,” he said. “You need that to win a premiership.” It was a special day for all involved at Point Cook Centrals, but particularly the 22 players who will go down in history as the first senior premiership team for the Sharks. “It’s something the club hasn’t done before, so it’s exciting for everyone,” Szulc said. “To win the premiership is awesome.”
Hoppers Crossing will return to the Western Region Football League division 1 grand final for the second time in three seasons. The Warriors advanced after a nail-biting three-point win over Altona at the Williamstown Cricket Ground on Saturday. The terrible conditions resulted in one of the lowest scoring matches of the year. Both sides kicked just three goals apiece, but Hoppers Crossing got over the line by three handy points. Jayden Post threatened to tear the game apart for Altona, kicking the opening two goals to give his side a 13-point lead at quarter-time. But the Vikings could only manage one goal through Josh MacDonald thereafter, which came in the third quarter. Two goals to Jackson Viola and one to best-on-ground Ashlin Brown secured the win for Hoppers Crossing. The Warriors are unlikely grand finalists. Even Warriors coach Steven Kretiuk thought making the season decider would be a stretch when he faced an off season full of departures and injuries. This young Warriors team was fast tracked and gets the chance to stand in the way of history. Their grand final opponents, Deer Park, are going for a record breaking sixth consecutive premiership. Hoppers Crossing is out to spoil the party. However, Deer Park deserved to be hot favourites, having thrashed Hoppers Crossing in week one of the finals by 48. In other games at Avalon Airport Oval this Saturday, Caroline Springs and Altona will contest the reserves grand final at 11.40am, and the under-19 grand final between Hoppers Crossing and Altona will begin at 9.15am. The division 1 senior grand final will begin at 2.25pm. Lance Jenkinson

Heptathlete makes her mark It has been a landmark year in the career of heptathlete Celeste Mucci. The 19-year-old from Altona took enormous steps towards her dream of competing at the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo. She represented the Australian open age team for the first time at a major event, competing in the Commonwealth Games on the Gold Coast, and was one of the standouts on the Australian team at the IAAF World U20 Championships in Finland. Mucci is delighted to see her hard work pay off. “The goal is always to get better and better,” she said. “To see the improvement coming along during the season, it makes me want to keep going and keep improving.” Mucci’s effort to get a gig to represent Australia at the Commonwealth Games is her proudest moment so far. The Williamstown Athletics Club representative will never forget the thrill of competing at a home games.
More importantly, the rookie was not out of place, only just missing out on a medal. She recorded a personal best score of 5915 to finish fourth. “To compete at Gold Coast was great. It was one of my favourite competitions so far.” The best of the best heptathletes in Mucci’s age group converged on Tampere in Finland for the under 20 world championships. Two years ago, Mucci finished a creditable 17th, but she had improved vastly since then because of her extra training, experience in competitions and natural progression. Her fifth-placed finish at this year’s event was in line with her upwards career trajectory. “It was such a good improvement from two years ago,” Mucci said. “It shows how far I’ve come, so I was really happy with that.” Mucci also demonstrated her leadership skills. The Altona Little Athletics Centre product was co-captain of the Australian team and wore the honour with pride.
Mucci has enjoyed a break and is beginning preparations with coach Darren Clark for a big summer season. Her aim is to continue improving across all seven events that make up the heptathlon. “Next year is set up so I’ll be in really good form for 2020 trials,” she said. “That’s been a goal for such a long time and we’re planning towards that.” Mucci is the September nominee for the Don Deeble Rising Star award. The award, hosted by the Sunshine Western Region Sports Club and Star Weekly Weekly, recognises young athletes from the western suburbs who have achieved outstanding results at state and/ or national levels. Mucci will receive $1000, donated by the Yarraville Club Cricket Club, and other prizes to assist her in achieving her sporting goals. Lance Jenkinson

The Tigers finally broke their premiership drought with a hard-fought 1-0 win over Bayside in the Hockey Victoria Vic League 2 grand final at the State Netball and Hockey Centre on Sunday. Tigers defender Jayden Street said the ribbing had played a positive role in the flag campaign. “The guys from the premiership team 25 years ago have let us know every year since,” he said. “At the start of the year we said, ‘No, that’s not going to happen any more, it’s this year, it’s our time’. “It’s been a long time, but we’ve made it happen.” Of course, the biggest supporters of the current players are the greats of Werribee. Nearly all members of the 1993 premiership
team were in attendance to see the Tigers get that elusive premiership “We had almost the whole flag team from 25 years ago come out and support us,” Street said. “They wanted us to win it as much as we wanted to win. At the ground, we probably had 4-to-1 spectators to what Bayside had. That’s how much it means to the club.” After qualifying for the finals in fourth, Werribee had to the run the gauntlet in September. The Andrew Purcell-coached Tigers beat third, second and first in cut-throat finals en route to the premiership. “We finished fourth, so we had to go the hard road,” Street said. “We knew that if we got to the final, we deserved it. We went through all the top teams to earn the title. “We beat everyone and no one can say we didn’t deserve it.” In a tense final, it was not until 10 minutes to go that Werribee took the lead. Captain Sam Huxtable flicked the ball, it deflected off a Bayside defender and then fortuitously into the roof of the net.
“We needed a goal and said ‘Hux, do your thing’,” Street said. “He’s the leading goalscorer in the league and he knows when it gets to the point of the game that we need him to score, he steps up and he delivers.” Huxtable’s goal sparked huge celebrations for the Tigers, but they still had 10 minutes to defend their lead. “We probably celebrated too much … we conceded a corner 30 seconds later,” Street said. “I said to everyone at the corner, ‘That’s what you get for celebrating too much’.” Bayside had one last opportunity to find an equaliser. Awarded a penalty stroke, all that stood in their way was Werribee goalkeeper Aaron Durajski. Durajski pulled off the save and preserved a match-winning lead for the Tigers. Werribee kept a clean sheet with the veteran defender drawing most of the praise. “He’s the pillar of our defence,” Street said. “He holds it all together.” Werribee will join its women’s team Vic League 1 competition in 2019.
Soccer
Hoppers Crossing could not have achieved any more in the Football Federation Victoria women’s state league 2. The Reds sealed the promotion and title double as the dominant team in the north-west division. With their job done during the season, the Reds advanced to the state league finals, where they conquered the best of the south-west. The Reds cruised to a 3-0 win over Whitehorse United at Egan Lee Reserve on Sunday.
Football
Werribee forward Josh Corbett has won the Fothergill-Round-Mitch Medal as the VFL’s most promising young player. Corbett, 22, played only nine of a possible 18 games, but did enough to beat an impressive field that included Collingwood’s Marty Hore, Essendon’s Nick Hind, Footscray’s Will Hayes and Williamstown midfielder Michael Gibbons.

Honda Civic is back to its best By Alistair Kennedy
AT A GLANCE MODEL RANGE
The arrival of the 10th generation Civic in mid-2016 sparked a significant revival, with sales more than doubling in 2017, albeit from a relatively low base. The new Civic hatchback is always the biggest seller in Australia. Our test here is of the topline sedan. Honda Civic comes in six variants, VTi, VTi-S, VTi-L, RS, VTi-LX and the high-performance Type-R. All are available as either a sedan or hatch with the exception of the Type-R which is hatch-only.
Civic VTi 1.8-litre petrol sedan or hatch: $22,390 (CVT) Civic VTi-S 1.8-litre petrol sedan or hatch: $24,490 (CVT) Civic VTi-L 1.5-litre turbo-petrol sedan or hatch: $27,790 (CVT) Civic RS 1.5-litre turbo-petrol sedan or hatch: $31,790 (CVT) Civic VTi-LX 1.5-litre turbo-petrol sedan or hatch: $33,590 (CVT) Type-R 2.0-litre hatch: $50,990 (six-speed manual)
Styling
Both sedan and hatch have the coupe-like profile that’s clearly aimed at attracting younger and less conservative older buyers to the Honda brand. The Honda family grille is flanked by narrow headlight clusters that sit above large honeycombed air intakes. The entry-level Civic VTi sits on 16-inch steel wheels, all others step up to alloys, 16-inch in the VTi-S, 17s in the others.
Engines / transmissions
Civic VT-i and VTi-S are powered by the well-established naturally-aspirated 1.8-litre in-line four turning out 104 kW and 174 Nm. The Civic VTi-L, RS and VTi-LX get an all-new 1.5-litre turbocharged twin-cam, direct-injected, four-cylinder with variable valve timing. It produces 127 kW of power and peak torque of 220 Nm between 1700 and 5500rpm. There is no manual gearbox, with all models getting a CVT in place of the previous conventional five-speed automatic.
Note: These prices do not include government or dealer delivery charges. Contact your local Honda dealer for drive-away prices.
Honda Civic has a bold and sleek look that will appeal to young buyers. (Supplied)
Infotainment The dashboard display is a 7.0-inch colour touchscreen in all models but without any physical buttons for the more commonly-used functions such as audio and air-conditioning. This can lead to a potential increase in driver inattention. Apple CarPlay comes with Siri Eyes Free mode and Android Auto with Google Voice for hands-free operations. The standard 180-Watt audio system has eight speakers, while the RS and VTi-LX feature a 542-Watt premium audio with 12 speakers.
Safety
In addition to common features (airbags, enhanced brakes and stability/traction control), all Civics get a multi-angle reversing camera; emergency stop signal; low tyre pressure warning and hill start assist.
Driving
Our test car was the top-of-the-range Honda VTi-LX sedan which, with its raft of safety equipment at an affordable price, is likely to be the preferred choice for family buyers.

The dashboard is logically designed with a tachometer and digital speedometer directly in front of the driver and a large infotainment touchscreen in the centre of the dash. The new 1.5-litre turbocharged engine pulls strongly with little effort. The quiet engine and underbody streamlining contribute to one of the quietest small cars that we’ve driven. Fuel consumption is officially listed at 6.0 litres per 100 kilometres on combined city/ highway. We averaged 7.4 L/100 km during our week behind the wheel.
