Vivien Griffin to retire

Can do de-amalgamation

Division 9 Cr Vivien Griffin has announced that she will not

contest the March 2012 election, retiring after 14 years in local government. Cr Griffin’s division included the Eumundi Green areas of the outskirts of Eumundi, Doonan, Verrierdale, North Arm, Valdora, and Weyba Downs.

Cr Griffin will be remembered for her notable contribution to the Eumundi community as the elected member, particularly as a guest speaker, a judge for events, and an advocate for progressive projects but she will be best remembered as the councillor who moved the motion in council to restore the car parking lease

Campbell Newman gave a “can do” message about

de-amalgamation at a press conference following his meeting with representatives of the Noosa Independence Alliance.

Mr Newman said that in the first 100 days of a LNP Queensland government, a boundary review commission would be set up to advise on a boundary for a “new” Noosa council and to assess the finances of the proposed de-amalgamation. A report will be produced and made available to everyone within the proposed boundary and they would be invited to vote on de-amalgamation. Mr Newman said a vote was necessary as

there had to be a process for all councils seeking any form of de-amalgamation. He agreed that Noosa was at the front of a likely queue.

Mr Newman said he personally was “exceptionally supportive” of de-amalgamation and complimented the Alliance on the thoroughness of their campaign.

Whilst the Free Noosa campaign proposes the inclusion of Eumundi, Verrierdale, and Doonan in the new council area, the boundary review commission will provide advice to government on that. EDV president Johanne Wright encourages 4562 readers to consider the matter carefully (see From the Treetops on page 6).

Campbell Newman in the flesh last week was a contrast to the

TV image with a relaxed, confident person on show at the office of the Member for Noosa. Mr Newman was clearly impressed by the case that had been made for a separate Noosa council years ago and now through the Free Noosa campaign. His understanding of the workings of councils was predictably very well informed.

It will be a lively time as residents of the Eumundi, Doonan and Verrierdale areas consider their preferences if indeed Mr Newman and the LNP are part of the next statement government.

Caplick Way is the re-named section of Eumundi-Noosa Rd that connects Eumundi to

the roundabout on the Noosa side of town.There are several distinct sections: we have the

school and police station precinct, the southern residential section, and the northern section combining residential and non-residential.

Caplick Way is the busiest thoroughfare in Eumundi and yet the sound-scapes are rural and residential. From our back patio we can only see trees and hear the occasional cow bellowing. In the morning there is the sound of a distant rooster and now and then a dog barking. More than 80 different species of birds visit the garden bringing seasonal notes to listen out for.

Recess time at school brings another layer of sound as children come out to play. School sports days bring waves of excitement and cheering.

The most evocative sound for me is the night goods train heading south. On a still night it is possible to follow the sound of the train as it weaves its way through the hills, sometimes disappearing altogether and then seeming to re-appear heading in a different direction.

There are many things to listen out for on Caplick Way and they all add counterpoints to the day.

How to survive a market downturnQ: I’m worried about the latest looming recession and what it will mean for my business. We are already struggling and it looks like things will get worse. What can I do to survive?

Offer something of value that people need: It might sound simple but when people pull back on spending because of reduced incomes they will look for value. Does your product meet your customers’ needs? Do you have a strong value proposition*? Are your customers raving about you because you go the extra mile? How would your customers describe you to others? The extra value you offer might not cost you anything more than a little effort, but it will mean the world to your customer.

Know your customers: How well do you know your customers? They will buy from you and then keep coming back (and bring others with them) if you know them by name, you remember their likes and dislikes and you communicate with them in a way that connects and delivers the key messages that they want to hear to satisfy their needs and wants. How do you speak to your customers? And are you interested in developing a warm and lasting long term relationship with them?

Some other suggestions next issue!

*The value proposition of a good or service is its apparent realistic promise of how much value the customer can expect to get from it. It is not only what the seller promises, but how much the customer believes it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Value_proposition

The residents of Eerwah Vale and Ridgewood received an

Information Update from Powerlink dated 1 August which “terminates” the threat of huge powerlines and a large substation in the valley and powerlines across their land.

These are the words that are the basis of the cheering in all parts of the valley and beyond:

“It is important to make clear that the need for the network upgrade has been deferred. The Powerlink Queensland project known as the Woolooga to Eerwah Vale Transmission Line, and the Eerwah Vale Substation Project, which was required before 2014, have been terminated.

Powerlink has ceased work on preparing a request to the minister for designation of the Final Alignment proposed in the Environmental Impact Statement

(EIS) prepared for that project.”PAGE president Jack Connolly

said, “Now the residents can get on with their lives without having to worry about the massive impact on their lives and the huge loss to their property valuations.

“This is not only a common sense win for the community, but it is a great environmental win for the Sunshine Coast, protecting a healthy koala habitat and population and other diverse fauna and flora.

“Powerlink have been saying for four years that their project was needed by 2014 or the lights would go out. Now, they suggest 2019 before it is needed. Powerlink could do well to adopt other PAGE research and accept the timelines based on efficiently using the existing network,” he said.

Tallgums’ Australian Nougat Company stand was busy at the annual Regional Flavours food event at Southbank recently. Owner Susie Chandler said, “The Regional Flavours event was a huge success with lots of foodies visiting and buying and plenty of positive feedback on our nougat products particularly our cranberry and macadamia nougat and generous comments about the Sunshine Coast as a mecca for good local products.”

Hundreds of market visitors and families attending sporting commitments were caught in a Saturday morning police blitz of attendees for the annual Bike and Hot Rod Expo at Eumundi Showgrounds.

Vale Pearl Smith – 22 October 1921 to 18 July 2011 Daughter Sue Shields

Pearl arrived in Eumundi in 1951 when her parents, John

and Rose Rapp, came from Maleny to make a home and a business in the bakery. Over the counter, Pearl met the young farmer Ian Smith and as a child I grew up with the story that, “your father bought his bread by the slice”, as he seemed to be in the bakery so often. This counter courtship was the beginning of a unique love story.

Pearl and Ian were married on Valentine’s Day (14 February) in 1953. They ignored some particularly poor advice from Pearl’s doctor that she had only a decade to live because of her lung problems and got on with building a life on the farm on Eumundi Range Road – dairy at that time. After my brother and I were born she got her driver’s licence- not nearly as involved back then.

As the butter factories in the area closed one after the other the dairy herd was replaced with Herefords and Pearl and Ian supplemented their income by picking ginger – not the best thing for her to be doing considering her health but they were always happy working side by side.

After a few “empty nester” years from ’76 to ’81, the first grandchild, Dale, arrived in ’82 and then the rest followed: Kate in ’83, Jane in ’86, Karen in ’88, Tim in ’90 and Sheila in ’93. So then Pearl’s life took on a new and much enjoyed pathway as a grandma.

As the family reflected on Pearl’s life, we all recalled her cooking expertise – peach blossoms, strawberry tart, mock chicken sandwiches and scones, to name a few – recipes her children and grandchildren have taken with them to their own homes. Pearl was also an excellent seamstress and I can remember many outfits made for herself, her children and the grandchildren, including a mini safari suit for Dale.

Looking around Eumundi we see a number of buildings that played a significant part in Pearl’s life: The Museum (once the Methodist/Uniting church) where she and her sister Olive taught Sunday School; the CWA rooms where she met with many other ladies; and the cattle saleyards out of town where the CWA catered for the workers, buyers and sellers with sandwiches and a cup of tea. And of course the school – as Peter and I received our education, Pearl was there baking and serving sandwiches and cakes at any event that required food to be supplied.

After the death of Ian in 2002, she spent three years next door to the farm with me, then almost six years being cared for at Carramar. At Carramar, while she didn’t win any sprint races she did keep staff on their toes with her wit and dry sense of humour. It is these characteristics, along with many others, that she will be dearly remembered for.

It is now official, Campbell Newman has followed in the

footsteps of Lawrence Springborg and John Paul Langbroek in confirming the LNP support for de-amalgamation of Noosa. What is most significant for those of us who live in our beautiful hinterland area is that the boundary will be determined first and then those of us within the new boundary will vote – what a fantastic outcome! This is beyond expectations. Now it is up to us to stand up and be counted.

When I talk to my friends and colleagues in the EDV area, I find so much in common with our Noosa cousins – we share the same values about community, about preserving our unique village heritage and fabulous rural areas, about having a say in the key decisions that affect us and feeling that we will be listened to and respected for our views. I urge all of us to really think about our shared community of interest.

Even basic things like where we go to shop, where we access professional services such as doctors, which beaches we swim at, are all so relevant in building a picture of whether we want to be in part of the north of the Sunshine Coast or link to the south of the Sunshine Coast. I know that I want to be part of a low-rise, village-based shire that lives and breathes local community and not part of a fast-growing, infrastructure-poor, high-rise, “big daddy” southern shire that wants to “harmonise” all services so diversity disappears. For our future we need every person who lives in the Eumundi Green area to think deeply about the opportunity presented and to actively participate in the boundary commission process.

We can and do appreciate diversity and can best achieve this by saying YES TO BE PART OF NOOSA! More will come in the next few months about how you can have your say.

to the community. A Maroochy Council decision had seen the car parking arrangements commercialised and taken away from the community.

In the election campaign for the first councillors for the amalgamated council, most candidates for Divisions 9 and 10 indicated their commitment to restoration of the car parking to the community. Some months into the new council’s term, the opportunity arose to extend the lease with the national car parking company or to consider a new set of arrangements. Cr Griffin lead the campaign within Council that resulted in all councillors voting to return the paid car parking lease to the community, overturning the staff recommendation.

“I have always been upfront about my environmental values and believe it is possible, and indeed imperative, to deliver on both economic and environmental outcomes for the Sunshine Coast. Already we have seen the first solar farm on the Sunshine Coast in my division, and a second application has been lodged.

“At the same time as working at the regional level, I also needed to respond to longstanding and neglected needs in Division 9,” she said.

Cr Griffin noted that her announcement meant that there would be at least four new

councillors coming onto council. “People need to do the math. The former Caloundra has 3 councillors; the former Maroochy has 7; and the former Noosa has 2 – a mayor will have no power. If former Maroochy councillors nominate and are successful, we will be back to the bad old days, only writ very large across the entire region,” she said.

She warned there was a clear and concerted push to swing the pendulum from sustainable development to development at any cost. “The campaign that is being run is quite obvious, but our economic competitive advantage is as a lifestyle region, not an Ipswich or a Gold Coast. We need to protect our lifestyle to protect our economy.

“People need to realise that we are now the fourth largest council in Australia, with an annual budget of $638M and a capital works program of $189M. I encourage residents to check out candidates with a high-powered microscope.

“I encourage candidates with strong track records of achievement in business or the community to nominate, but they should be very up front about what their values are. Instead of broad motherhood statements, residents need to know exactly what candidates will do and where they stand and why they should be believed,” she said.

Division 1 Cr Lew Brennan said that the aim of the prize is to encourage and promote the region’s young and emerging artists, to foster creativity and to raise awareness of the creative educational opportunities on the coast.

“We are delighted to have received over 70 entries to our first ever Sunshine Coast Tertiary Prize,” Cr Brennan said.

The standard of work is very high and bodes well for the future of the Coasts creative sector.”

Sunshine Coast Tertiary Prize entries will be exhibited at the Butter Factory Arts Centre in Cooroy until 11 September.

EducationGrowing, harvesting, preparing, sharing… at North Arm State School

As a Stephanie Alexander Kitchen Garden school,

students from Years 4-7 participate in lessons in the kitchen as their learning focuses on preparing food that has been grown and can be shared around a common table.

The students have had a semester in the kitchen and are showing wonderful cooking skills. They take control of their stations, sharing responsibility, problem solving and experimenting with taste and texture. It is great to see those children who claim “I don’t like ...” being persuaded to have a taste and finding that the particular food tastes alright.

Ingredients8 cups broccoli florets2 tbsp butter1 chopped onion3 cups vegetable stock2 cups milk

MethodStart by adding butter to large

pot. Sauté the onion until soft. Add broccoli and stock. Allow this to simmer approx 10 mins.

Puree the mixture in a food processor before returning it to the pot, add milk and heat through.

Sunshine Coast Tertiary Prize winners

Eumundi’s Peta Moore was the winner of the 2D prize in

the Sunshine Coast Council’s inaugural Sunshine Coast Tertiary Prize, announced last Thursday at the Butter Factory Arts Centre in Cooroy. Peta said she was thrilled and honoured with the win.

“My painting, Beating of my heart, was inspired by my love of the outback and long time association with the land. Studying at TAFE has helped me gather the skills to put my feelings about the bush onto canvas,” Peta said.

The 2D and 3D prizes were judged by Artworkers Alliance director Kevin Wilson who said that Peta’s painting was a very strong abstract work that showcases a great sense of colour, tone, texture and line.

Sculptor Peter Kennedy won the 3D prize with his figurative ceramic piece Essentially Earth. The unfinished feel and expressionist nature of the piece encourages questioning and interpretation by the viewer.

An engaging group of students entertained a good crowd of market shoppers on Hiroshima Peace Day. The students were from

Hiroshima International College and visiting Eumundi to promote peace, raise some desperately needed funds for the Japanese Red Cross for victims of the tsunami. A master of calligraphy painted a banner and the children played and danced providing one more vibrant experience for visitors to the Original Eumundi Markets.

The Pacific Chamber Players, based on the Sunshine Coast and with prominent players from the Coast and Brisbane, will present Le Tour d’Europe in Maroochydore, Caloundra and Cooran during August.

be a number of Century Specials (April, mid-year and on the actual weekend of its opening). They’re planned to be great fun and very entertaining and it’s hoped that all Eumundi Green readers, including those folk who normally don’t attend theatre, will get behind it.

The Indee has formed a special production committee to cover every aspect of the late September staging of Hans Christian Andersen. The youth theatre side of things (The Indee Young Players) is well into rehearsal for the six plays within a play. Included are the well-loved tales of Thumbelina, The Little Match Girl, The Ugly Duckling, The Princess and the Pea, The Little Mermaid and The Emperor’s New Clothes.

ventures depended on evidence of feasibility as a fundamental foundation for any project and that she believed Council should consider whether it could play the vital role to better the chances for any longer-term incubator project. She agreed to propose that council prepare a feasibility study as soon as possible so that the work would be done before the end of the year.

Later Cr Griffin advised that the minutes of a meeting of councillors of 3 August noted that “Council request the Chief Executive Officer to conduct a feasibility study on the viability of an arts inclubator on the Sunshine Coast, including role, function, location, stakeholders, governance and commerciality, such study to be completed by end December 2011 in time for consideration of a funding application to the Regional Development Australia Fund to progress the concept.”

Tina Cooper invites anyone with ideas, concepts, relevant experiences with other projects to call at her gallery so that no worthwhile input into the feasibility study is missed.

Arts Scene

Just two weeks away from the Lux Radio Theatre Weekend and it’s

another solid cast assembled for this live radio drama production. Appearing in The Third Man will be Eddie Ellis, Bob Stuart, Marion Johnson, Carol Hoger, Richard Luscombe and Grant Marks. Our live sound-effects on-stage man will be Josh Watson.

Three shows only, 7.30 Friday and Saturday nights, 2 and 3 September and 2pm Sunday 4 September.

The Third Man will head the bill but the first half supporting show should be just as entertaining, with archival footage of the radio stars of the 40s-50s filmed during some of their most memorable broadcasts.

The Eumundi School of Arts stage and auditorium will replicate the old Macquarie Radio Auditorium, from where so many of these outstanding shows emanated. As usual the licensed bar and Lyn’s Coffee Shop will be operating, with Lynn offering $1 pies all weekend.

Tina Cooper from Tina Cooper Gallery hosted a meeting

recently of individuals and organisations interested in joining together to explore the possibility of an arts incubator being established in Eumundi. Division 9 Councillor Vivien Griffin attended the meeting together with Council’s creative planning and programs manager Christine Ballinger.

The concept discussed was chiefly about how to attract funding that would allow the development of a shared set of facilities for a variety of art endeavours that would lead to more viable commercial enterprises.

The need for such a facility has been heightened in recent times particularly the stringent industrial requirements for glass blowing and ceramics. There have been many discussions over years trying to match the Sunshine Coast’s reputation as a melting pot for art with a facility that might allow artists to get a start, to develop and to be secure in their art to earn a good living.

Cr Griffin said that applications for large capital grants for such

Bike & Hot Rod Expo

The annual Sunshine Coast Hinterland Bike & Hot Rod Expo at Eumundi Showgrounds included the expected thrills and spills

plus family fun and entertainment on a perfect winter’s day on Saturday 6 August. The event was well attended by locals and visitors despite some discouragement from hold-ups with a police blitz for road worthy and breath tests.

The event organisers made a very generous donation of two computers and some educational games to the Out of School Care facility at Eumundi State School as well as a donation to the AGL action rescue helicopter. The computers have been delivered leading to many smiles from grateful children.

Next Tuesday 23 August at noon the public artwork

commissioned by Sunshine Coast Council as part of the top of town intersection upgrade work will be unveiled and dedicated at an informal public celebration hosted by Division 10 councillor Paul Tatton in conjunction with the Eumundi Chamber of Commerce.

Council called for submissions for the public artwork rather than to construct a standard street railing along an area that needed a creative non-standard solution. There were challenges with different levels from the intersection works and a view that the top of town view for Eumundi could not be boring.

Steve Weis of Kin Kin was the artist chosen from Council’s selection process and in time Forest Dreaming was created forming the 18m balustrade made up of 400 linear metres of forged steel. Steve explains his work in the artist’s statement on this page

I was asked to create a forest fence around Food@Eumundi; something that would respond to the character of Eumundi and its timber-cutter heritage. As an artist and healer, I have various levels of sensitivity that I engage in both feeling and expressing.

The rolling tree lines, the architecture of timber, the

fertility, the ancestral heritage, the egalitarian culture of a market park in a hill valley….

This fence is an improvisation

a strong, enduring and elegant balustrade based on the timber theme so important to the early identity of Eumundi,” Cr Tatton said.

“The finished product is a very

picturesque, safe and functional artwork that will really add to the visual look and feel of Eumundi.

“This artwork is in line with Council’s placemaking charter that aims to value-add to capital works projects by protecting and preserving the local history of the Sunshine Coast’s community of communities” he said.

Jessica and Scott Hardy of Food@Eumundi report that they have received many positive comments about Forest Dreaming particularly noting that the practicality required has not been at the expense of creative talent, something that the hinterland has “oodles of”.

Jessica said, “We look forward to sharing with the business operators and residents of Eumundi on Tuesday. The rainy construction period was rough for everyone even the workers so it’s good to be able to take a little time out to acknowledge Forest Dreaming.”

in forged steel coated with organic sealant.

There was no drawing. There was no plan, only a sense.

The labour involved one artist, two work experience students, and one woofer (Willing Workers On Organic Farms program www.wwoof.com.au). Several months of work, ample steel, gas and sweat, were made worthwhile by the fence itself, as it took me on a journey from simplicity to diversity.

I felt the need to create a seed...seedpod...seeds of creation.

They remind me of wild wisteria’s velvety pods.. One grew wings, because they were irresistible to me.

Considering the nature of the

wild, the landscape of the timber cutters’ world, I was aware that they were forever amongst the vines and sticks of the forest proper.

The Lizard Dreaming is a favourite symbol from my Inner work. The symbol represents the oneness in all. The seeds are potential. I invite you to attribute your own calling to the seeds of the pods.

Impression of forest floor litter, bursting with life, guided by experience and opportunity: this was my journey with fire and steel.

My gift to you is the dreaming. I hope you may feel inspired. Please enjoy to your heart’s content, with my blessings.

Editor’s note: Last week’s round of Market Chef had an extra dimension for a few people. One of the Market Chef competitors was once a very premmie baby who weighed just 700 grams. Mother and son were airlifted to a Brisbane hospital which had just installed Australia’s a state-of-the-art humidicrib. For years the baby struggled and was assisted with calipers and full time oxygen. The market manager and the father were business contacts when the baby was born, and, 15 years on, their paths unexpectedly crossed again as both proudly watched a fine young man doing very well at Market Chef.

Health and LifestyleWhat children learn from dad

As Fathers Day approaches it is the perfect time to reflect on

the positive role fathers play in the lives of their children, and the very real influence they have in creating happy, responsible, and kind children.

Fathers who love, value, encourage, and compliment their daughters on the person they are and on what they achieve, help their daughters to develop higher self-esteem, confidence, and respect for themselves. This means these young women of tomorrow are less likely to give in to unwanted sexual pressure, to suffer image problems, or to form unhealthy relationships. They gain the very real benefit of starting life with a caring male role model who demonstrates healthy, respectful relationships towards women.

Fathers are also an integral part of their sons’ healthy emotional, physical, and cognitive growth. Fathers who love their sons and show that love in caring and consistent ways, will produce young men with fewer problems in their relationships, with their peers, with schooling, and with delinquent behaviour.

Boys will model themselves on their father and, by watching

Winter is drawing to a close and bringing with it a resurgence of flu cases. This year, Qld has the highest number of reported cases alongside South Australia and New South Wales. There has been a major increase of flu cases this year, much higher than the last few years, and we are seeing cases in our district.

How can we prevent catching a flu? Our main line of defence is by keeping our immune systems strong by eating well, drinking

plentiful water and getting enough rest and recreation.

These form the basis of a healthy immune system as well as good clean fresh air and some winter sun. It is when we are under periods of undue stress and feeling “rundown” that we commonly catch colds and flus as the body needs to utilise more of our vitamin and mineral requirements in such times thus leaving our immune system running below par.

Those at a higher risk of contracting a flu are able to have a yearly vaccination for flu prevention.

Those with chronic conditions and all clients over 65 are able to receive this as a Medicare-funded vaccine.


In the SpotlightAvril Greenough’s life of change Caroline Arnett

The dedication of people working behind the scenes

who happily roll up their sleeves when they’re needed, provide the life-giving fuel that drive the engines of our community.

Avril Greenough is one such hard working lady. With a gentle composure and big heart, she is a quiet achiever that offers her support wherever she can.

One of the three principals of Noosa Hinterland Realty, Avril owns the rental component of the business and feels extremely proud that she, Richard and Audrey are surviving the economic struggle against all odds. “ We may not be out there with the big banners etc., but we are here to offer a service.”

Avril was born in Stafford, England and grew up mostly in Blackpool, Lancashire. Joining the police force, it was there she experienced her “inspirational period”. “It was great,” she says, “I had a fabulous time… in those days we were groomed to be officers of the law… it was great to have that training and that

discipline, which has stood me in good stead for the rest of my life.”

She met her husband in the police force and they married young. After two years of working, they emigrated to Australia in 1973. Her husband had spotted a billboard with a guy wearing budgie-smugglers offering teaching scholarships in Australia for which they applied.

Within five months and with

very little money, they found themselves living in Goulburn NSW, which Avril admits was a bit of a shock having arrived in the middle of a bleak winter. With a transfer to Dubbo and a job offer in Sydney, they promised their brood of four small children that they would find a suitable place to call home. Their roots became firmly grounded in the beautiful town of Bowral for 20 years.

In 2000 Avril and her husband parted ways and it wasn’t long before she began yearning for a change. In 2002 she came to the coast and bought an investment house then promptly took off on a yearlong adventure around the world. “I’ve always been a resourceful and independent person,” she says, “but that year challenged me in lots of ways… it felt very rewarding.”

Upon her return she headed up to Eumundi, having done much of her research on the Internet. “Choosing to live here was a head/heart decision,” she says.

Among Avril’s greatest joys are her children and six grandchildren. Her personal pact being that she visits her interstate grandkids every three months to remain very much in their lives.

Looking into the future, Avril would love to see more of our great continent. “I’d love to do the great Australian pub crawl and stay at ‘locals’ all around the country, listening to old stories,” she says pensively. “That’s what I’d really like to do.”

Bits and Pieces

There is another way to put the microbes to work at your

place. Build a large compost pile, and while it is working to become humus, get steaming hot water without the expense of energy inputs.

All you need is 100m of the high pressure black poly-pipe and the ingredients for a large compost heap. You need to get the carbon nitrogen ratios right so gather green waste and the brown stuff such as leaves or hay. Layer the pile while rolling in coils of the poly pipe. The pile will take three months to cool down and at the end of that time you have wonderful compost for the garden and no electricity bill for

the hot water. If you check the internet there are ways to make the pile work for 18 months and to make methane gas to store and use as well. The two-metre pile will give you four minutes of really hot water with a recharge time of about five minutes.

Ask your local permaculture group to help, there may well be a workshop coming up. This is the perfect solution for that outside shower in the middle of your banana circle or bamboo clump. Permaculture seeks a quality of life that does not cost the earth.

Eumundi Family Medical CentreThe Centre is developing much as envisaged by our original concept of the provision of a community medical service. A regular clientele towards the maximum number of patients per day for our business model has been achieved by the initial three day per week service. This ensures the quality of care we are aiming for to be provided by a single doctor. Several weeks ago the Centre commenced opening four days per week, our preferred means of achieving increased patient numbers and community service. Dr Carlos Sanchez is supported by two registered nurses providing treatment and support. We now seek to open a full �ve days per week by o�ering a part-time speciality. Our objective is to focus on women's health issues. Accordingly, we are seeking expressions of interest from local community GPs with a special interest in this �eld to work at our centrally located, fully computerized and accredited centre. Hours are negotiable and can be tailored to match the GP's schedule. In the �rst instance interested GPs are asked to email [email protected] with CONFIDENTIAL in the subject heading.

continue to get mixed messages about the future of the Mary Valley.

Recently there has been talk in the community about changes to legislation to remove any reference to the Traveston Crossing Dam. However, a quick check of state government maps has indicated that the proposed Mary Valley dam sites at Kenilworth and Traveston Crossing are still identified as “restricted areas”.

Peter believes this uncertainty needs to be cleared up, not only for the people living in the Valley but for those people considering purchasing property in the Mary Valley region.

facilities for tuff trucks, 4WD, winch pull and hill climb events. Cabins, camping areas, three sewage treatment plants and a licensed kiosk operating 10am to midnight seven days a weeks are part of the major proposal.

The development application is yet to be assessed by the Gympie Regional Council and closing date for submissions to Council is Thursday 8 September.

blocks of land that join previously fragmented core habitats to build strong resilient landscapes. Last week, council made its biggest, most significant land purchase since amalgamation - over 500 acres (213 ha) in the Obi Obi behind Montville.

The block will form a protected link between the Maleny National Park and the Kondalilla National Park. Environment Portfolio Councillor Keryn Jones said there is a mix of remnant and regrowth vegetation on the blocks providing habitat for fauna, with cleared areas also providing foraging opportunities.

In Parliament, Member for Nicklin Peter Wellington has been calling

for the state government to remove the previous proposed dam sites in the Mary Valley at Kenilworth and at Traveston Crossing from current government documents. He has also written to the “alternative Premier” and leader of the Liberal National Party to ask, if his party forms government, would he give a commitment not to build the dam at Traveston Crossing, and to remove all restricted sites in the Mary Valley from the government regulations.

Ever since the Federal Government stopped the proposed Traveston Crossing Dam, the public

One night some friends phoned to say there was a mouse

in their house, climbing up the curtains and jumping from wall to wall. In early winter we occasionally have house mice coming into our place and we knew mice don’t behave as described. It had to be an Antechinus, a very agile mouse-sized marsupial and brilliant climber. But we were hoping it wasn’t a female because in the past we’ve had mum Antechinuses present us with litters of up to a dozen babies which we then had to rear.

The little critter turned out to be something quite different and unusual. It was a feathertail glider, Acrobates pygmaeus, Australia’s smallest possum species, named for its acrobatic ability and its pygmy size.

The household cat was taking a gastronomic interest in the glider so it had to be rescued before it became a prey item and, hopefully, without stressing it too much. That was not easy: the little creature was amazingly quick and elusive. A net helped, and after 48 hours’ care and observation, with the glider showing no ill-effects, it was released into very suitable habitat

Nature Notes

adjacent to the house it had entered.

Feathertail gliders are distributed along the eastern part of Australia, from below the Cape right down to Victoria, but absent in Tasmania. They prefer the wet forest environment where they are not uncommon but not often seen because they are nocturnal, of tiny size, and quick moving. (We have something small and agile coming to our Calliandra bush some nights, but have never managed to get a good look – its just too quick – but we think it’s a feathertail and once we found a dead one). Their gliding membrane, extending from elbow to knee allows them to glide for up to 25 metres and the distinctive tail, shaped like a long, narrow feather is thought to act as a rudder.

Feathertails’ diet consists of nectar, sap, manna (a sweet, white exudation from some eucalypts due to insect attack) and small insects. Nesting is communal in small leaf-lined tree hollows and generally they have two litters of three to four young in a year.

At our July meeting we looked at photos on the “age” theme:

some aged portraits and others of a quite different interpretation of the theme in aged buildings and an ancient Hill’s Hoist, and we had a look at and discussed some different lens types.

It was a chance to say a big thank you and goodbye to Ian who was at his last meeting before leaving to join Sue on Elcho Island – I’m sure we’ll see some fabulous pictures from there in the future.

Slide Didjeribone player and self-professed noise-maker

Tjupurru, an international success, visited Cooroy’s Noosa High to help close the cultural gap and illuminate students with his unique communication style. Tjupurru is not a didgeridoo player but is mixing cultures, technologies and sounds from over thousands of years to make sound he calls, 21st century Didjetronica.

Dance teacher Ms Jacqueline Twigg, who brought her students to the presentation, said the performance was incredibly engaging and entertaining. “Students felt connected to Tjupurru because he was ‘one

Educating children is a family, school and societal affair.

That is why Jonathan Anstock’s education workshops are open to not only teachers, but parents, carers and interested parties as well. Jonathan has recently returned from the Middle East having been a teacher advisor for Education Queensland International. He has been a teacher since 1971. He relocated to Doonan and now offers workshops that show how child

School Captain of Noosa District High School and top art

student, Eumundi’s Lily Parsons, was invited to participate in a full day writing workshop at GoMA, Brisbane, and have her work published, after her submission to Write About Art was successful. Lily was previously a student of Eumundi State School.

Write About Art is an initiative of Flying Arts in association with Eyeline Publishing and Arts Queensland and aims to encourage young writers from state and non-state schools who want to write about art, craft and design. Lily was one of 30 selected out of 54 applicants from across the state and will now work with an industry mentor to hone her writing skills and produce a polished piece of writing for publication in leading visual art journal, Eyeline Magazine.

Following on from looking at lenses, our theme for August-September is “close-ups” – anything of interest that you can take a picture of close up: flowers and bugs spring to mind, but there are many potential subjects of which to take close-up detail.

Our next meeting will be Tuesday 6 September at 7pm in the Imperial Bistro back room. Bring along interested family or friends – they’ll be very welcome.

of them’ for an hour,” she said. Students loved hearing about his escapades at school and how he discovered his instrument by playing vacuum cleaner tubes while on detention.

He made some wonderful music and spoke a lot about how the sounds are produced; and while he was entertaining the students he embedded a lot of information about kids in Indigenous communities. He made it okay to have an easy and open dialogue about some of the issues in community schools and talked about how music helps kids to engage with learning on the path to literacy.

development readiness can be integrated with the early stress-free development of faculties, particularly numeracy and literacy.

Jonathan will be holding a series of workshops in Noosaville.

Teachers are provided with a certificate of attendance and participation so it can count towards their continuing professional development requirements.

Bookings can be made online at www.qtpd.com.au.

Follent from Eyeline Magazine said they were impressed with the quality of Lily’s submission.

Flying Arts runs a number of workshops and residencies for senior students through their Vizarts for Youth & Education program. Further details can be found at www.flyingarts.org.au.

A few issues back I talked about some of my favourite utilities I

carry around on my memory stick. This prompted a reader (Alan) to send in his favourite tools and utilities and some of them are so good I’ve started using them and you might like to check them out too.

Firstly, Lastpass. This is superb. It remembers all those random passwords you have on your computer to log into various sites, and you just need to remember your one master password. It works across different PCs too, so you don’t need to type in your password again on a new PC or your laptop etc. As Alan writes, “www.lastpass.com is an online password manager which is secure. All data is encrypted and they do not store your passwords on their servers, so if the site is hacked, unless the hacker has your master password, they cannot access your data. It integrates in most modern browsers and smart phones. Username and password are automatically filled in when you go to a stored web site. As

Computer Coop Nathan Woodcock

Nathan Woodcock Systems [email protected] Ph 1300 995 502

passwords are stored online, you can use it on any computer and if Lastpass is not installed you can go to the web site, login and there are all your passwords.”

Despite some trouble in May with poor communication about a potential security issue (which did not result in the hacking of anyones passwords), I still use and recommend Lastpass.

Speaking of passwords, Alan also suggests www.passwordmeter.com and http://howsecureismypassword.net/ – to test the strength of any password – and lastly, PhraseExpress (www.phraseexpress.com) which stores text for use in any application, e.g. “Yours sincerely” can be stored and then entered into any application by pressing a user-defined keystroke, e.g. WinKey+S. There is also a program launcher where the user can define keystrokes to run programs, e.g. WinKey+W runs Word, WinKey+X runs Excel etc. There are lots of other features too. Enjoy!

The Hyatt Hotel at Coolum will be hosting a timber racquet

tournament on 21 August from 11am to 5pm.

The Hyatt Coolum Timber Challenge is a major event in what will be a series of tennis tournaments held throughout Australia, using the weapon of a bygone era.

Timber challenge tournaments, and the first charity focused novelty tennis event, began right here in Eumundi. The idea of local residents Paul Curtis (right) and Chris Etheridge was to promote a social day of tennis with an atmosphere of yesteryear.

Eumundi State School’s rugby league team had a comfortable

22-4 win over Coolum 2. “Man of the Match” went to Zander Davies with great ball skills, some hard tackles, and good hit ups. Last week’s “Man of the Match”, Taine Fell, was classy in the halfback position while Isaak McLean and Tom Coleborn ran onto the ball strongly, both scoring two tries. Jayden Murchie also scored with a conversion by Aaron Pollard.

The inaugural Eumundi Timber Challenge was hosted by Eumundi Tennis Club in February this year.

Event organiser Paul Curtis was approached by the Hyatt tennis centre following the success of the Eumundi tournament.

“It is a true community event and creates the fun and frivolity of community sport in days gone by,” said Paul.

“The timber town of Eumundi will always be the spiritual home of the Timber Challenges Tournament and our Eumundi Challenge will be considered the Wimbledon of these events,” tournament director Chris Etheridge said.

Other inter-school sports matches were football where both the boys and girls teams had wins over Cooroy State School. The boys won 9-1 with Jack Whisker and Jack Townsend showing the way. The girls won 2-0. Holly Dekuyper stood out with some clever ball play.

The school’s netball teams did not fare quite so well going down to experienced teams from Coolum and Tewantin.

Proudly supported by Eumundi & District Historical Association

The building that houses Discover Eumundi was built in 1911 and was opened on 2 December 1911.

Used as a church for many years the Eumundi and District Historical Association bought the building and relocated the Eumundi Museum to it in 1996 when it outgrew its previous site across the street.

Many Eumundi people would have attended Sunday school, been married and christened in it over the many years. To celebrate the 100th birthday we are planning a number of events and a display on the history of the building. If you have memories, photos, wedding or christening gowns relating to its use as a church we would like to hear from you.

Help us celebrate a signi�cant milestone of a much loved heritage building in Eumundi.

Locals Home and AbroadYinchuan, Northern ChinaVerrierdale’s Ed and Cher Boyd share a little of their experiences on a visit to a niece teaching English there.

The day was meant for shopping because I realised I had

packed for the wrong weather! I needed lighter clothing as it was much warmer and more humid than I had expected. We headed up Jiejang Xi looking for “camping shops” as they might have the lightweight clothing I wanted. Being Saturday, the streets were more crowded than we had been experiencing. “Street walking” is just that – on the street, off the street, wherever you can fit, as the need to dodge parked cars, bicycles, footpath sellers, bike repair men, shoe shine stands determines your path.

We were extracting money from a Bank of Agriculture ATM when war broke out! Crackling gun fire,

cannon booms and screeching filled the air. Startled, we rushed outside to discover it was A WEDDING! Fireworks filled the street with smoke and a gas fired “cannon” rent the air with such force it pressed through my body.

The bride’s car arrived, adorned with plastic floral wreaths and glitter was exploded in the air from large canisters. I chuckled as the bride, in her sweeping white gown and trailing veil, had to be carried through the revolving doors of the hotel as the dress and veil kept getting caught.

And so it continued across and up the street. We weren’t sure if some sort of competition for attention or “face” was happening. One seemed to outdo the other with coloured smoke, rockets or floating love hearts. Red banners, lanterns and flags, the bigger the better, added to the exciting spectacle of it all.
