GALSTON HIGH SCHOOL TEACHER WINS MASTERCHEF Well done to Elena Duggan,

the Head Teacher of Creative and Performing Arts at Galston High School, for her wonderful achievement in winning Masterchef 2016

So many people in our community watched the show each week, following Elena’s progress. Facebook was alive with comments of encouragement. The nail-biting and highly emotional finale was an amazing demonstration of human selflessness and portrayed a

true spirit of generosity. Those who watched, particularly her students, witnessed something quite amazing when Elena stopped and took the time to help her opponent when he struggled to complete some of the tasks in the final moments of the competition. What an inspiration to us all.

“The school is absolutely thrilled for her. Students and staff have been enjoying watching and following her successes. Obviously, we are disappointed that she will be putting her teaching career on hold, but this is a fantastic opportunity for her and very well deserved.” commented Lisa Pieper, Deputy Principal at Galston High School.

Elena’s prize pool was $250,000 plus a monthly food column with Delicious Magazine.

LETTER FROM THE EDITOR’S DESKAugust already! I don’t know about you, but this winter has been cold

for me. The rain has been lovely though. Soon, it will be spring and time for all of us to come out of hibernation. It will be time to get out into the garden if you have one and you can. The birds will be singing and the bees buzzing. One of my favourite times of the year.

It will also be time to think about Christmas before we know it. Scary thought isn’t it? I love Christmas though. Love spending time with loved ones and maybe getting away for a little summer holiday.

This issue of the Hills to Hawkesbury Living magazine sees our regular sections full of informative and interesting articles and events.

IVOR JONES AND FRIENDS MEMORIES

DAYS IN THE SCHOOL PLAYGROUND

Back in the 1970s Cat Stevens recorded a song called “Remember The Days In The Old School Yard”. Do you remember that song? Well I do and I also remember some of the games that were played in the school playground some 60 plus years ago.

As a young child of around eight or nine years old I can recall playing games such as tag, hop-scotch, jacks and marbles. As I lived in the UK at the time I can also recall the game of Conkers. Naturally many girls played games such as elastics and skipping to rhymes. Then there were games such as tunnel ball, playing on the monkey bars, putting a ball into a stocking and bouncing that against a wall. There were also girls bouncing two or more balls against a wall and catching and throwing them again. Such games provided exercise and improved dexterity or co-ordination.

Can any readers remember the rhymes they said when skipping, playing elastics or bouncing balls

against the wall?

Marbles was a great game and some boys (and perhaps girls also) used ball bearings on occasion to smash their opponents marbles.

The various games that came into and out of fashion from time to time depending on the season included Yo-yos. Remember “Walking The Dog” or “Rocking The Cradle” and all the other movements you could do with the Yo-Yo?

Hula hoops were also a craze that came into fashion and went out again just as quickly, swaying your hips to keep the hula hoop up spinning around your waist or spinning it around your arm. There were also the boys who threw the hoop with a flick of the wrist to make it spin and as it hit the ground to return to you.

Other activities that took place in the playground were the swapping of cards. Remember the cards you would collect from packets of bubble gum? Or if you are older you may remember the cigarette cards. Cards came from a number of other outlets or products as a way of improving

sales or marketing. You may have even swapped lunches with fellow students. On the subject of food, what about the small bottles of milk that were delivered to the schools so that students would receive a supply of calcium to strengthen their bones and teeth. The milk would be delivered in the morning and often sat in the warm or hot sun so when you got to have your bottle the milk would be warm and not cold.

They sure were fun filled days.

Of course not everyone had fun at school. Discipline was much stricter back then. Many a boy would receive six strokes of the cane. Sometimes this may have been for some very minor matter. I don’t know how many people have told me “that never ever hurt me”. I must say that is also the case in my experience, but I do recognise that some teachers were sadistic and vengeful who took great pleasure in inflicting punishment.

So if you don’t remember Cat Stevens hit song from the 1970s “Remember the days in the old school yard”, perhaps your memories maybe along the lines of

“School days, school days,

Dear Old Golden Rule Days

Reading and writing and ‘Rithmatic’

Taught to the tune of the Hickory Stick.”

So what do you remember of the days at school? Write your story and send it in.

NOW WHAT ABOUT YOUR MEMORIES OR YOUR STORY.

If you have some great memories, or perhaps you belong to a local community organisation and would like to share your organisation’s history or story with us then feel free to share your memories or experiences by writing to PO Box 1278, Baulkham Hills, NSW 1755 or email to [email protected].

MEET ALIVE 90.5 PRESENTER GRAHAM JOHNSON

Ex-magistrate & former Chairman of Alive 90.5 FM, who presents

Early AM Attitude & Night Moves and has been presenting since the 1990s.

Early AM Attitude Saturdays 6am to 8am

Every Saturday morning at 6am Graham Johnson presents the “Early A.M. Attitude program”. The program has been on air continually since March 1996 and gets its name from a track by smooth jazz legends Dave Grusin and Lee Ritenour.

Start your Saturdays on the right note with this 2 hour program featuring smooth jazz from Australia and around the world.

Graham maintains a website for fans of smooth jazz music – SmoothJazz905.com. The site has items of news, photos, and a whole lot more. Graham also uploads the most recent “Early A.M. Attitude” program to this site so that you can replay it at any time.

Here’s what a few listeners have said:

• “My wife and I listened to your show while having breakfast. It is the perfect accompaniment to this beautiful spring morning

that we are having”. – A.W. –California, USA“I’ve been listening to “Early AM Attitude” via the internet; great show and I love the mix of artists.” – C.R., Sacramento, California, USA

Reward your good taste and join the smooth jazz fans from Australia and around the world who regularly tune into this program. It’s the place to have your musical attitude adjusted each time you listen.

Name of show: EARLY A.M. ATTITUDE, Saturday 6-8am. Graham Johnson presenter. Email: [email protected] Website: http://www.alive905.com.au

Graham Johnson – Night Moves Saturdays 7pm to 9pm

After arriving at the station at 5.30am on Saturdays to present the “Early A.M. Attitude” smooth jazz program between 6 and 8am, Graham returns to the station to present “Night Moves” between 7 and 9pm. It features many of the older smooth jazz hits that don’t get much airplay these days. Fans of the former “Sound of Style” format will love this music.

If you would like to view playlists for this program go to Graham’s website http://www.smoothjazz905.com/night-moves.php where you can hear a replay of the current program. Great smooth jazz on Alive 90.5.

Ray Cunningham - Part Three of Three LIVING LEGENDS

PART THREE OF RAY’S STORYThis is the final installment

of this three part series on Ray Cunningham.

1961 and after a trip back to Australia, the Cunningham family returned to the Iban people and to the small town of Pakan in the north west Sarawak region of Borneo. Pakan, although small (it consisted of 12 Chinese shops), was a strategic centre for many Iban villages and was about two days journey by boat from the next major town Sibu. By now Evelyn and Ray had two children; Kathy, who was less than a year old and Gwen aged two. The mission’s funds were running low, and while the family managed to obtain a small block of land they could not afford to build a house. With some local timber and a friend’s help the family managed to erect a basic dwelling. Soon the small family needed to extend the building. One day a Chinese carpenter called Lee Tung Ming came and offered to work for Ray. Without any funds, Ray declined the offer, but Tung insisted on helping for free. Tung was a Christian who had been praying that God would send a “light” for the Iban people. He now saw a group of Iban worshipping God every Sunday in Pakan. “Uncle Tung Ming” was soon building and living with the family and the young girls came to love him as an uncle. The unusual thing was that Tung only spoke Chinese and Iban which made communication interesting. Tung Ming went on to build a medical centre at Lawas.

In 1962 the confrontation with communism began to manifest itself in the areas in and around the Cunningham family.

Between 1962 and 1966 Indonesia and Malaysia fought a small, undeclared war which came to involve troops from Australia, New Zealand and Britain. The conflict resulted from a belief by Indonesia’s President Sukarno that the creation of the Federation of Malaysia was an attempt by Britain to maintain colonial rule behind the cloak of independence. Most of the infiltrations occurred in the border area between Indonesia and East Malaysia on the island of Borneo, right in the area where the young Cunningham family were. Indonesia’s campaign sought to

exploit the ethnic and religious diversity in Sabah and Sarawak compared to that of Malaya and Singapore, with the intent of unraveling the proposed state of Malaysia.

During this time, Ray came to know an English Engineer, Mr Panton, who was managing road construction in the area. During the Confrontation, it soon became evident and Mr Panton disclosed to Ray that he was working for British Intelligence. He provided Ray with guidance on what to look out for and asked Ray to supply information to him quickly on any agitation by the communists. Mr Panton also suggested that the Cunningham family prepare to leave. Ray declined at the time, committed to the Iban people.

Ray received first hand reports of infiltrations and skirmishes such as one of a village of 600 people being forced out of their homes, robbed of their food and held hostage by a group of more than 200 North Kalimantan National Army (TNKU) soldiers. The TNKU eventually headed off upstream with their loot from the village. Two local Gurkha scouts had managed to escape during the siege and raised the alarm. The British were subsequently able to ambush the TNKU further upstream. Only two of the TNKU were able to escape and many body parts were seen flowing down the river from the battle.

In 1963 the handover of the Sarawak region from the British to the Malaysian government was imminent. The local people were very uneasy. There were frequent incursions from Indonesia and the danger of a communist rebellion. Many of the Iban people started to wear their old war swords instead of the usual bush knife. The tense situation was obvious to all. One night some local Chinese men invited the Cunningham family to join them inside a barbed wire barricade to protect them. Ray thought that was the wrong way to approach the situation and would just make them a target. The next day the special police organised a meeting between the Chinese leaders and Iban chiefs. They asked Ray to speak. When Ray heard that the leaders of both sides were in favour of sacrificing a pig and sharing the blood with vows to keep the peace, he rejected that idea also. Ray talked to them about freedom, which he likened to a fire. There had been a dangerous brush fire only the day before. “We have a responsibility to keep fire in the hearth where it is safe and good.” While there had been some extravagant talk about freedom from colonial rule, there were enough sober minded people listening to appreciate the dangers of reckless independence. It was significant that the Cunningham were

remaining in their place and trusting God. The people agreed to keep the peace and exercise restraint.

When the day came to end British rule and begin Malaysian rule, 30 August 1963, the changeover was calm.

With the end of British rule, the previous religious divisions were dissolved and all foreigners on visas were asked to leave the country. Evelyn and Ray were committed to their cause and had permanent residency from the beginning. This left the Cunninghams as the only foreign Christian missionaries in the area. They continued to faithfully minister to the people.

In 1973 the family moved to Miri a large town to work on a translation of the bible into the Kenyah language and a particular dialect. A battalion of the Malaysian military was stationed in Miri, mainly made up of Kayan, Kelabit and Kenyah tribesmen. The girls, Kathy and Gwen, continued their schooling via correspondence and the Cunninghams joined a Malay speaking congregation that met at the barracks. Soon enough the new church needed a place to meet and the Shell Oil Company donated the church land on Canada Hill overlooking Miri. By 1974 a church was built and Ray was the first pastor. In 1978 Ray and Evelyn moved to Sibu and continued their work, again working with the Iban, equipping them to become self-sufficient with the gospel.

In 1991, Ray and Evelyn retired to Australia.

The Christian faith continued to grow throughout Sarawak. Muslim missionaries also sought to win over the local people. They came to the Iban promising gifts, money and a mosque. In one instance, in Roban, the local people came to their chief and said, “these people promised many things, but they have only given us one of their promises, the

Mosque”. The chief allowed the people to raze the mosque.

In 2015, Ray Cunnigham at age 92, returned to the island where he had fought for Australia, where he and Evelyn had raised a family, served the people and spent most of their lives. Today there are thousands of Christians in Sarawak. The Iban people gave Ray a seat of honour at their “Big Gathering”, a congregation of over 4,000 Iban. Each of the visiting speakers were interpreted from English into Iban, except Ray, who was able to deliver his address to the people in their native tongue. Ray was also able to hand over to the people, master copies of literature he had translated into their language during that time. The gathering included performances, dances and singing.

What struck Ray was the extraordinary unity, bonding and peace across the Iban groups. Groups that used to be at war with each other and were bound by spiritual fear even so far as to not cross rivers and borders. Ray observed a strength of maturity about their faith and their unity above their denominations and that they have been careful to avoid being politicised.

What a contrast, what a hope to the fear, violence and division we see in the world around us today.

IS CELEBRATING 30 YEARS!

MYSTICAL MYANMAR“This is Burma, it is quite unlike

any place you know about” I am quoting the words of Rudyard Kipling- penned over 100 years ago. If you are looking for somewhere to go that is a little different from the normal tourist trail - now is the time to visit Mystical Myanmar (formerly Burma) while this astonishing country still retains it’s time warp charm and it’s people confident and full of optimism for the future, as a nation emerging from the harsh conditions imposed by the previous ruling military, but now on the cusp of great change. Visitors to Myanmar will discover a nation raw and real and delightfully offbeat. From riding in a horse-drawn cart past ancient temples to witnessing the one legged fishermen of Inle Lake and the lakes stilted houses. One of the best ways to experience Myanmar is by cruising the Irrawaddy River, Myanmar’s largest and most important river, opening up to explore it’s ancient temples, historical monuments, fascinating villages and most scenic of waterways. Cruising ranges from 8 days to full touring options of 16 days taking the traveller from Yangon to Mandalay or round trips Yangon (formerly Rangoon) to Yangon. Yangon is home to thriving bars and restaurants set amongst the architectural remnants of British colonial times, and probably the most developed city in the county. You will follow a path less travelled

into Mandalay, Burma’s last royal capital and see the “World’s Largest Book” amongst other attractions . Take to the skies in Bagan, following the Irrawaddy to the central plains, Bagan is synonymous with hot-air balloons, as this is one of the best ways to appreciate the World Heritage – listed site of more than 2,000 religious monuments spread across the dusty plains- and just so spectacular at sunset ! Most males in Myanmar will spend some time in a monastery, so you will witness many orange clad Monks during your journey. Australian tour companies are now venturing into Myanmar and some such as Scenic and Insider Journeys support many organisations within the country and will give their guests an opportunity to interact with the people on a very personal basis by sharing a meal and seeing the very real way that this emerging tourism industry is helping local life escape the poverty of the past. If you are looking for something “off the beaten tourist track” now is the time to visit this magical, mystical destination and be spellbound by this country’s hidden treasures. Singapore Airlines and Thai Airways operate daily flights to Yangon via Singapore and Bangkok respectively.

HILLS DISTRICT 2016 VARIETYBash, commencing on Sept 30th in Warwick

and concluding on the 9th October at The Bathurst 1000 V8 Supercar race.

What is the ‘Variety Bash’? The Variety Bash started in 1985 when adventurer Dick Smith took a group of intrepid motorists from Bourke to Burketown in their old cars, raising money for charity along the way. All the money went to Variety, The Children’s Charity to further its support of children who are sick, disadvantaged or who have special needs.

The Bash has been staged by Variety annually in every state of Australia since 1985 and still encapsulates the spirit of this original idea. Each team fundraises throughout the year, all vehicles must be 30 years or older and must be non-performance modified. The Bash is not a race or a rally, but a channel for everyone wishing to make a real difference to Australian families doing it tough – all the while seeing and experiencing the splendor of the Australian Outback.

Funds raised are donated to children who are sick, disadvantaged or who have special needs by the way of goods and services. In this way Variety is able to fill a vital gap between what families, schools and communities are able to afford and what our children need to lead engaged and fulfilling lives. An Appeals Committee assesses each individual request for assistance throughout the year. During the event we, as participants, are fortunate to witness numerous heart swelling and tear jerking

moments as evidence of the amazing positive life changing impact Variety has on Aussie kids and their families. It is definitely the type of event and the type of charity that has our team keep coming back to support year after year, inspired by making such a difference.

How can you get involved?

• A tax deductible donation to our 2016 campaign will be receipted by Variety The Childrens Charity. In exchange for your donation, we would like to offer advertising space on our vehicle, at all fundraising events we attend and also at the many towns during the ten days of the event

• Donation of any prizes we can then auction during the event.

• Donation of giveaways for kids as we make our way around the Bash route, these may include anything from lollies for fun, to hats, stickers, toys, school equipment and everything in between.

As a team, we have always made the utmost effort to make as much of a difference as possible for not only Aussie kids and their families…but also to the fundraisers participating in the event who have personally invested a lot of time and money to support Aussies less fortunate. We have created a fun and colourful theme that

stands out, dress up and are always in the thick of the action by participating fully in the spirit of the Bash.

We are also very proud of our achievement of twice reaching the goal of being in the top 10 fundraising teams. Not only does this help the kids as much as possible and generates a lot of publicity for the car and therefore our sponsors, but is quite a feat considering there are normally between 100-200 teams entered each year.

Our goal this year is to set a new record for the first VW Kombi to drive the track on the morning of the actual race with the V8 Supercars and especially due to the colourful nature of our theme and our tendency to make a big impression within the media, we intend on using this incredible opportunity for publicity to spread the wonderful work Variety does and all our sponsors who support as year after year so we can do what we do.
