THE remains of more than 100 Kaurna an-cestors were laid to rest at Smithfield Me-morial Park yesterday morning in a historic reburial.

For years, the remains of about 4500 Ab-original ancestors have lain in boxes and stored in a Netley warehouse belonging to the South Australian Museum.

But yesterday, 130 ancestors were brought back home to Kaurna land and laid to rest at Wangayarta.

In what is a world-first, a two-hectare plot of land at the Evanston South cemetery has been dedicated to the Kaurna people, the traditional custodians of the land that locals walk on to-day.

Emotional scenes played out as the ances-tors were repatriated on Country.

Alan Sumner welcomed the crowd of about 100 people in Language.

He said there was “a lot of feelings today”, a mix of sadness and celebration.

“We collected our people that have been sitting in boxes for many years, and today we are sending them home,” he said.

The remains of the ancestors were disturbed during the construction and development of Adelaide in the 1830s, dug up from the final resting places and shipped off into storage.

Mr Sumner said the remains were collected and brought to Wangayarta on Monday.

The first ancestor placed in Wangayarta was a man from the 1800s.

He is known as the first Kaurna man taken to the SA Museum, but not all of his remains were able to be brought back.

“In fact, a lot of the remains of our Old Peo-ple are not there today,” Mr Sumner said.

“…to see the bones, the fractures, the skulls

that have cracks in their heads. I am sorry I have to say this today, this is part of our truth telling.

“If we don’t learn to tell the truth, the hard truth of our nation’s history, we can’t move on together. This is part of our shared histories.”

About two years in the making, it has been a collaborative project between Kaurna Yerta Aboriginal Corporation (KYAC), the South Australian Museum, Adelaide Cemeteries and Department of Premier and Cabinet Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation.

A CHRISTMAS performance in Gawler by cover band Acoustic Juice on Saturday has been postponed.

The band was scheduled to play a din-ner and show gig at Gawler Civic Centre as part of Gawler Council’s Christmas program on Saturday, which also features a Kids Zone and Twilight Market.

But Gawler Mayor Karen Redman told The Bunyip yesterday that “by mutual agreement”, council, Gawler Apex Club and Acoustic Juice had decided to post-pone the performance.

“Acoustic Juice were set to provide a unique Christmas experience, in lieu of the cancelled 2021 Gawler Christmas Carols,” Ms Redman said.

“However, low ticket sales in a busy Christmas period, during an uncertain COVID-19 South Australian event land-scape, have resulted in the decision to postpone this ticketed event until 2022.

“We’ll work together to reschedule a date in 2022 to appropriately host Acous-tic Juice in Gawler.”

On the band’s Facebook page, it said the performance was postponed until “next year sometime folks”.

A CONFIDENTIAL report into the be-haviour of former Gawler Councillor Ian Tooley was tabled at last month’s council meeting.

The matter was heard behind closed doors with members of the gallery and council staff removed from the chamber, with debate lasting an hour.

Only Kelledy Jones Lawyers direc-tor Michael Kelledy, Local Government Association Mutual Liability Scheme (LGAMLS) manager Robyn Daly and LGAMLS retained counsel Andrew Harris QC were present for the matter.

The resolution on the item has been kept in confidence.

The report in question was conduct-ed by lawyers Thomson Geer and in-vestigated the behaviour of Mr Tooley, following a resolution by council in April last year.

Faced with the prospect of removing Mr Tooley from council after missing three consecutive meetings without a leave of absence, elected members chose not to endorse his removal but instead conduct a report into his “repeated and sustained” behaviour.

Previously the report had not been en-dorsed by council but remained a confi-dential document.

Mayor Karen Redman attempted to sub-mit the report, which was still confidential at the time, as evidence of Mr Tooley’s pattern of behaviour as part of her Code of Conduct complaint against him earlier this year.

However, this was rejected by Mellor Olsson, the lawyers investigating the Code of Conduct complaint.

“As such, we do not consider it appro-priate to make any comment on the report or set out any of the detail of it,” the law-yer’s report read.

“It is, however, our view that we should not conduct a review of, nor rely on, the matters contained in the Thomson Geer re-port for the purposes of our investigation.

“The reason for this is that the scope of the Thomson Geer report was limited in nature and was not an investigation.”

Mellor Olsson recommended that a “comprehensive investigation” on the matters raised in the report be undertaken.

Mr Tooley has consistently denounced the report as a “witch-hunt” and a “waste of ratepayers’ money”.

He resigned from council in July.

Behaviour report tabled in confidence

Small win in crossing battle

CONCERNED motorists have had a small win after going vocal about safety con-cerns surrounding a Kudla level crossing.

Last month, The Bunyip re-ported on the frustrations of residents who felt the Dalkeith Road level crossing was a safe-ty hazard waiting to happen.

A group of five people voiced their concerns with the width and uneven surface of the road over the rail tracks.

The Department of Infra-structure and Transport (DIT) told The Bunyip at the time that

an assessment of the road was due to take place that week.

When contacted last week, a DIT spokesperson said work had been identified following the assessment.

“Following an inspection of the Dalkeith Road level cross-ing in November, some minor works have been identified to improve the ride over for road users,” they said.

“The department is aware of community concerns regarding the crossing, and is now assess-ing how to progress with im-provement works.”

A petition calling for up-grades and repairs of the level crossing has attracted 715 sig-natures since it was launched about five months ago.

Local resident Matt Gaffney,

who started the petition, said he was cautiously optimistic about this latest update to the issue.

“(I’m) certainly happy they (DIT) are taking note and look-ing to make improvements to

the crossing; I guess time will tell what sort of improvements that will be,” he said.

“My initial thought was ‘this is amazing’, but I also thought ‘I’ll believe it when I see it’.”

RAIL services to Gawler will not resume until April or May next year, according to information leaked to the Labor Party.

Member for Light Tony Piccolo on Monday told The Bunyip that a whistleblower from inside the Transport Department had advised that the line would not reopen until “late April or early May”, more than 18 months after originally sched-uled.

Mr Piccolo said information pro-vided to him suggested that signal

testing was scheduled to being on February 11 for a month-long pe-riod.

Following that, testing of over-head wiring would also commence and last for a month before on line testing by drivers ahead of services resuming.

However, Transport Minister Co-rey Wingard has refuted the claims.

In a statement provided to The Bunyip, Mr Wingard said he had “no intention of working towards a Labor timeline”.

“We’ve been very open and trans-parent about the fact the project has been impacted and therefore de-

layed by the COVID-19 pandemic,” he said.

“We’ve stated publicly the line will reopen early in the New Year and we’re working very hard to make that happen.

“Labor has pulled a date out of their backsides. With all the con-tinued uncertainty around COVID and potential future outbreaks, my priority is getting the project fin-ished as soon as possible in a safe manner.”

The issue was raised in Parlia-ment during Question Time last Wednesday. Opposition Leader Pe-ter Malinauskas asked Mr Wingard

four times about the timeframe for services to resume. But the minister did not clarify, instead pointing to “public statements” that it would be completed “early next year”.

Mr Malinauskas asked whether services would not resume “un-til April 9” and a supplementary question regarding whether the line would be operational before the March election, but was again referred to public statements previ-ously made.

Mr Piccolo said Mr Wingard was “playing silly games” and he need-ed to “come clean” on the project’s timetable.

“If I can find out the dates, I am sure he knows the dates,” he said.

“The fact that he is not being hon-est with the people of the electorate just says a lot about his indifference to what is happening in this area.

“I don’t think he fully under-stands how much people are hurting at the lack of rail.”

Mr Piccolo said Freedom of In-formation requests had been lodged for the release of the timetable con-cerning the Gawler line electrifica-tion project, but were denied.

He said the matter had been re-ferred to the Ombudsman for adju-dication.

‘Come clean’ on Gawler rail

THE BUNYIP’S ANNUAL CALENDAR WILL BE INSIDE OUR NEXT EDITION

BRENDAN SIMPKINS

A LONG-awaited upgrade of Tambelin railway station will be undertaken by Labor if it wins election next March.

The announcement came on Friday, with Member for Light Tony Piccolo committing to an investment worth $530,000 to signifi-cantly enhance the station.

Labor’s focus will be on the station’s car-park, which for many years has been left as dirt and stone.

If a Labor government were elected, the funds would be used to build a “kiss-and-ride” facility as well as all-day and disabled parking.

Sealing of the carpark would be undertak-en, and new kerbing and lighting would also be installed.

Mr Piccolo said the investment was about future-proofing the station, with additional growth forecast for the area as more housing developments came online.

“This is going to be important to actually improve carparking here; you can tell it is a growing area,” he said.

“You want people to get off the roads and use public transport… so to make this more attractive for people to use but also safer, this just provides better access to the station.”

Mr Piccolo also announced that he would relocate the shelter on the western platform closer to the disability boarding assistance space.

Currently the shelter on that side of the plat-form is about 100 metres away from the des-ignated space, meaning people in wheelchairs or who require assistance boarding the train must brave the elements during extreme heat or rain.

The issue had been brought to the attention of Mr Piccolo by Evanston Gardens resident

Mark Payne, who is physically impaired. When the trains are running, Mr Payne regu-larly commutes along the Gawler line.

Mr Payne welcomed both the relocation of the shelter and the upgraded carpark.

“(Moving the shelter) would make it a lot easier for me, for people with prams and the elderly as well,” he said.

“The thing is… there is a shed on the (east-ern) side. Whoever designed this originally,

all they had to do was put a shed (on the oppo-site side) and make it a bit deeper. They made it a bit deeper but didn’t put the shed.”

The State Government earlier this year an-nounced a “station refresh program” to pro-vide upgrades to numerous stations across metropolitan Adelaide.

Along the Gawler line, 14 stations are set to be upgraded, including Tambelin.

GAWLER-born parliamentarian John Dawkins MLC said goodbye to the Legis-lative Council last Thursday, bringing an end to a 24-year career on North Terrace.

Giving a valedictory speech to the chamber, the President of the Upper House said fare-well alongside fellow long-standing Liberal and MLC, Treasuser Rob Lucas.

The pair will retire from state politics at next year’s election, and last Thursday’s sit-ting day was likely to be Mr Dawkins’s final appearance.

Both houses are not likely to sit again until after the next election in March.

Mr Dawkins was elected in 1997 and was a member of the Liberal Party up until last year,

when his pursuit and subsequent appointment to President of the Legislative Council drew the ire of colleagues.

Following his appointment, Mr Dawkins was expelled from the party, becoming an in-dependent.

He said it was a “wonderful privilege” to serve as President, and thanked fellow mem-bers of the Legislative Council.

“As I said, I think we are also very privi-leged that in this place we have members of parliament who have good relationships with each other across the divide,” he said.

“As many have heard me say before, when new members have come to this place…I tell them that if you think you are not going to make friends on the other side of the aisle or with the crossbench, then you are making a great mistake because the friendships you

develop here are very valuable to the way you operate in this place but also outside the building just as much.”

Mr Dawkins also served as Whip for the Liberals and as the Premier’s Advocate for Suicide Prevention, and has been a vocal ad-vocate for surrogacy.

“I give credit to the government for allow-ing me to go and do a lot of that work, and the health minister has been very supportive in that regard,” he said when speaking about his time in suicide prevention.

“I think those structures are there, they are working really well and we have now put them into legislation, as they should be. I am very grateful for that.”

Mr Dawkins thanked wife Sheila, daughter Leah and son Tom.

GAWLER Council will spend more than $1 million converting its street lights to LED after a funding application was rejected.

More than 2500 street and pedestrian lights across the council area will be con-verted to LED at a cost of $1.3 million.

The project was included in this year’s bud-get, with council set to contribute $800,000.

It was hoped the outstanding amount would be covered by the Federal Govern-ment, with an application for $500,000 be-ing submitted as part of round five of the Building Better Regions Fund.

But council was recently told the applica-tion was unsuccessful.

Council has chosen not to abandon the project, instead opting to fund the entirety of the project out its own pocket.

Brought to the attention of elected members at November’s council meeting, Cr Paul Koch sought clarification on the project’s status.

The cost had been adjusted to include the full amount as part of council’s quarterly budget review, and outcome of its funding bid was revealed in a grants update.

GAWLER-born John Dawkins MLC is proud the nation-first Suicide Prevention Bill was passed by State Parliament last week.

The former chair of the Pre-mier’s Council on Suicide Pre-vention was a prime mover in having Parliament pass the Bill.

South Australia became the first state or territory in Australia to enact formal legislation de-signed to reduce the incidence of suicide.

Mr Dawkins, who was Presi-dent of the Legislative Council until his retirement from poli-tics last week (see below), said the Bill was a major step for-ward for suicide prevention in the state.

He said he had long advocated for the legislation and was proud the Bill had finally passed.

“Suicide impacts so many fam-ilies and communities, and its consequences can be devastat-ing,” Mr Dawkins said.

“This Bill will ensure a co-or-dinated and effective approach to suicide prevention, with govern-ment agencies, non-government organisations, and community groups all playing a role.

“As the first Bill of its kind in Australia, this legislation sets a precedent for other states to fol-low in addressing suicide preven-tion.

“I commend the efforts of the Premier’s Council and the Issues Group on Suicide Prevention.

“I also thank my former staff Karen McColl and Tanya Malins, whose commitment in staffing the office of the Premier’s Advo-cate for Suicide Prevention and dedication in advancing this na-tion-leading legislation has been outstanding.”

Mr Dawkins said the Bill was

introduced to Parliament follow-ing extensive consultation with experts, stakeholders and com-munity groups.

“It builds on much of the work that has been initiated since the creation of the Premier’s Advo-cate for Suicide Prevention office in 2018,” he said.

Mr Dawkins said the Bill aimed to promote best-practice suicide-prevention strategies across the state.

It allowed for a whole-of-gov-ernment approach to suicide pre-vention, ensuring all government departments and agencies prior-itised preventing suicide in the community.

Among its functions, the Bill establishes a Suicide Pre-vention Council as an ongoing statutory body to oversee and advise on suicide prevention and post-vention (an interven-tion conducted after a suicide) programs.

The council will comprise members with diverse expertise and perspectives, including those with lived experience.

The council will be respon-sible for the preparation and implementation of a state sui-cide prevention plan, which will include provisions to ad-dress risk factors for the gener-al community as well as popu-lation groups at higher risk of suicide.

The Bill also establishes a suicide register, containing data related to deaths by suicide. The register will provide im-portant information to enable timely support for those affected by suicide and ensure policies and programs are targeted to reduce suicide.

The Bill will be delivered to the Governor of South Australia for approval next week.

CHILDREN with disabilities will be able to enjoy a more accessible Apex Park, if Labor forms government at next year’s state election.

To coincide with International Day of People Living with a Disability on Fri-day, Member for Light announced his party would spent $60,000 to upgrade the popu-lar playground to make it more disability- compliant.

Upgrades would include water, acoustic and sensory elements to make the playground more user-friendly for children with intellec-tual disabilities.

Labor will work alongside the Apex Club of Gawler and Gawler Council to add the up-graded elements.

Mr Piccolo said the improvements would allow children with disabilities to enjoy the park.

“We think it is important that playgrounds are inclusive and that they cater for all chil-dren,” he said.

“This is probably the first stage of what we hope to do over the future.

“As this happens, we will look at over op-tions to ensure we have a much more inclu-sive society.

“…this is a very practical way of showing that families, if they have a child living with a disability, that the playground here should be for them as well.”

Mr Piccolo said the park was chosen be-cause of its close proximity to facilities and central location. The adjacent park is also used regularly for events by Apex and other community groups.

Gawler disability advocate Paige Carter has, in the past year, brought to the forefront

the lack of disability-friendly playgrounds in town.

This year she combined with Cr Nathan Shanks to get a motion passed to install a pic-ture exchange communication (PEC) system board installed at Apex Park.

Recently community consultation was held in relation to the draft design of the board, which was designed by speech pathologist Kiera Stone.

Mr Piccolo said this announcement was

building on work already being done at a lo-cal level.

Apex president Bronte Rhodes said mak-ing the playground more accessible had been something the club wished could happen for a number of years.

“It is finally coming to an end result which we are extremely happy with,” he said.

“We are custodians of this area in a sense, and we are proud of it. We are always doing something to keep it continuing.”

Continued from front pageThe land was dedicated by Adelaide Cem-

eteries, which funded the initial construction of earthworks and mulches.

A grant of $300,000 was awarded by the State Government, which was used for the co-design process and for the bulk of the construction work.

In an emotional speech, Head of Human-ities at the South Australian Museum and University of Adelaide Professor John Carty said sorry on behalf of the two institutions.

“There is no reconciliation without truth, and so it is important as we stand here in solidarity that we also stand here in the truth,” he said.

“The truth here is pretty simple; there are hundreds of Kaurna ancestors sitting in box-es on shelves in our museum.

“…so many of these ancestors were dis-turbed from their resting places by the build-ing of the roads we all drive on, the offices we work in, the homes we live in. The devel-opment of our town, our society was built on the disturbance of Kaurna Country.”

Mr Carty said the Old People had been treated as “species for study” by Adelaide University scientists, curators of the muse-um and the medical profession.

Wangayarta has been specifically de-signed by the Kaurna community and deter-mined by Kaurna principles.

The grassed area is shaped like a tradition-al Kaurna shield and the burial mounds were based on traditional practices.

Native trees and plants dot the land, while the soil has been collected from all corners of Kaurna Country, so that the Old People can smell their Country and “be at home”, provid-ing access to food, medicine and shade.

Inappropriate imageI WAS greatly disturbed when I saw the photo of Sts Peter and Paul’s Catholic Church used to beautify the newly built toi-let block on Julian Terrace (“Public toilets set to open”, The Bunyip, 1/12/21).

How inappropriate. I find it insensitive and disrespectful to the thousands of Gawler res-idents who, over more than 120 years since it was built, have, and many still do, worshipped there.

It was there they were baptised, in that church they prayed in their time of need and sought comfort from their God, there they pledged each other life-long love in marriage and it was from there they fare-welled their loved ones at the end of their life. And now its image adorns a toilet block! Whoever had that idea lacks an understanding of the powerful language of images and its impact on people.

After all, don’t we say that an image speaks a thousand words?

Proud of new vetsON November 26, I was very proud to rep-resent Mayor Karen Redman and the Town of Gawler at the 2021 valedictory ceremo-ny at the University of Adelaide Rosewor-thy Campus’s School of Animal & Veteri-nary Sciences, when 64 people graduated in veterinary sciences after six years.

Head of school and Dean of Roseworthy Campus, Professor Wayne Hein, welcomed graduates, parents, partners and family friends.

The event began with doctor of veterinary medicine graduating student Sonia Treagus entertaining all present with violin music that was magnificent - by far the best I have heard for some time.

This was followed by a welcome to country

by Uncle Rod O’Brien (Kaurna) and keynote speakers Professor Darren Trott and Dr Eve Manthorpe and the acknowledgement of the graduates.

Student responses were made by graduates Emma Davy and Emma Maley.

The veterinary oath was supported by state Chief Veterinary Officer Dr Mary Carr and the graduates.

Light Council Mayor Bill O’Brien and fed-eral and state politician also applauded the calibre of excellence being implemented at Roseworthy Campus.

I personally wished as many of the gradu-ates as possible the best for the future.

League of its ownGAWLER Petanque Club (GPC) host-ed the second round of the South Austra-lian Petanque League at our Hallam Drive grounds on Sunday.

The weather was perfect and we had 22 teams of triples from all over Adelaide com-peting plus our members and volunteers.

About 80 people enjoyed a very entertain-ing day with a fully-stocked bar and delicious lunch.

My thanks go out to all our helpers who made the day run smoothly.

Winning team on the day was Petanque D’Adelaide club. Well done.

Our thanks go out to member for Light Tony Piccolo, who has supported our club for many years.

Petanque is a game originating in France but played competitively all over the world.

It’s suitable for any age or ability and is fun, friendly and easy to learn. Please consider vis-iting us on a Sunday morning.

The first three visits are free and we have social evenings as well.

News that more than 160 people have signed a petition calling for Gawler Council to investigate retaining two tennis courts in Church Hill as open space drew attention on social media this week.

Kylee Carmody: I agree this is definitely a resource that should be preserved for public use. Especially given the courts on Victoria Tce are not open all the time, and if you want to use them, you need to pay.

Brian Lloyd: Must be kept. We use them as a group Mondays and Wednesdays and I use them Tuesdays and some Thursdays as well, among other users.

EDITORIAL

Reburial a defining moment for so many

THE reburial of the remains of 130 Kaurna people at Evanston South yes-terday carries a significance that will reverberate for decades to come.

The world-first, moving Kaurna Wangay-arta ceremony at Smithfield Memorial Park yesterday involved members of the Kaurna community, the South Australian Museum and Department of Premier and Cabinet.

Those 130 “Old People”, whose remains have been stored in the museum’s ware-house at Netley for decades, were finally returned to their country.

The remains had been disturbed during the building of Adelaide in the 1830s, dug up and put in boxes and left in storage.

As Indigenous man Alan Sumner said, there were “a lot of feelings today”.

It was bittersweet – sadness and celebra-tion.

“We collected our people that have been sitting in boxes for many years, and today we are sending them home,” Alan said.

Yesterday’s emotional event came a couple of days after South Gawler Cricket Club was the scene of an impressive and respectful Welcome To Country and In-digenous smoking ceremony before its A1 clash with Gilbert Valley.

Saturday’s activities were part of South’s second annual Indigenous Round. The idea came from Indigenous South player Michael Cooper when he became Aboriginal liaison officer.

Cooper told The Bunyip the club was making a commitment to its Indigenous players, and he was proud of how the round had been received by all involved.

The cricket Indigenous Round and yes-terday’s dignified reburial at Evanston South are both significant steps towards the nation’s goal to fully embrace our First Nations people.

For many Indigenous people, changing attitudes of white Australians is a fight that is seemingly neverending.

In 2021, Aboriginal sportspeople are still targets of horrifying abuse, on arenas or from cowardly online trolls.

Indigenous AFL stars such as Eddie Bet-ts and Adam Goodes say the effort to push back against these racist attacks is simply draining.

Shamefully, Australia still does not have enough First Nations representation in high-profile sport, local government, pol-itics, the media – you name it.

But yesterday’s reburial and Saturday’s cricket Indigenous Round in the Gawler region can give us all hope that the tide is slowly turning.

Nice to have new toilets and they do look nice but pity we cannot use them yet. The others have been taken away and I needed to use them this morning (Saturday) on my walk and all locked up! Great! Debbie

Wonderful news to see Xavier College and St Brigid’s merge. It’s a natural fit. Good luck for the future. JM, Evanston

So lovely to see Gawler’s caring side with Christmas hampers being donated to the needy. It doesn’t cost a lot to make someone’s day this Christmas. Jess

Pothole disgraceI WOULD like to praise the current Liberal Government for a slice of its promises to improve the Horrocks Highway and Port Wakefield overpass and duplica-tion.

However, if you travel on the section of Queen Street, Williamstown, between the CFS station and the primary school, it’s a game of dodging the pothole craters.

I have had emails from the Member for Schubert and the Transport Minister saying there is no funding available at this time.

Considering they promote Williamstown as the gateway to the Barossa, it’s an absolute disgrace. Similarly, the road from Springton to Eden Valley is a minefield of large potholes.

In their defence, it was a massive problem inherited from the previous inadequate rabble in a 16-year period of road neglect.

It would be acceptable if the Transport De-partment could at least keep the roads patched and in a safe order.

BRENDAN SIMPKINS

GAWLER was last week caught up in South Australia’s latest COVID-19 out-break, with Gawler Health Service listed as an exposure location.

The hospital was added to the growing list of sites on Friday, alongside 15 other loca-tions across Adelaide.

However, authorities said there was no need to panic, with the health advice listed as “low-risk casual contact”.

Under SA Health’s new health advice cri-teria, visitors to the location during the speci-fied time only need to monitor for symptoms,

with testing required if symptoms develop.The case visited Gawler Health Service on

Tuesday, November 3, between 8.45am to 6pm.

It is not known if the case was a staff mem-ber or a patient of the hospital.

On Monday, December 6, there were four new cases of COVID-19 in the state, bringing the to-

tal to 45 active cases since borders reopened. Of the active cases, 24 are close contacts while 15 acquired their infections interstate.

Four people had contracted COVID-19 from overseas, while another two are under investigation in quarantine.

Currently only one person has been admit-ted to hospital because of the disease.

Hospital’s low Hospital’s low risk contactrisk contact

INDEPENDENT Frome candi-date Cate Hunter has called for a solution to the risk of closure of Kapunda Hospital’s emergency department and other regional EDs in the electorate because of the threat of COVID-19 after the reopening of borders.

“Residents of Kapunda and other regional towns like Eudun-da have expressed their grave concerns to me around this,” Ms Hunter said.

“With conflicting media re-ports about whether the emer-gency departments are open or closed, it’s unacceptable that re-gional communities should suffer

this kind of uncertainty around the accessibility of their town’s hospital.

“This, as I understand in the case of Kapunda Hospital, is due to a shared air conditioning sys-tem between the emergency de-partment and the aged-care facili-ty on the same premises.”

Ms Hunter is calling on the State Government to act on itds commitment to regional com-munities and invest appropriate funds to upgrade regional hospi-tal facilities, especially during the heightened risk of the pandemic.

Kapunda’s ED previously went through a temporary clo-sure last year after an outbreak of COVID-19 in the Barossa Valley.

“The government needs to prove its commitment to the health of regional communities and invest appropriate funds into our vital regional hospitals in order to fully separate such fa-cilities and keep our elderly safe from the risk of COVID-19, as well as have our emergency de-partments open and available for the use for which they are intend-ed,” Ms Hunter said.

“The current measure, which is to redirect patients to neighbour-ing hospitals at Gawler, Tanunda and Angaston, places these fa-cilities under extra pressure and enforces delays in the treatment of patients due to significantly in-creased travel times.

“At the same time, this can leave facilities like the emergen-cy departments at Kapunda and Eudunda languishing.

“One of my major focuses, should I be elected as Member for Frome in the upcoming election, is improved access to healthcare facilities for all residents of our region.

“Upgrading our regional hospi-tals is part of this.”

Ms Hunter, who also a Clare and Gilbert Valleys Councillor, moved to Kapunda with her hus-band Tony and their three chil-dren earlier this year.

FOUR people have been arrested after a pursuit with a stolen car in the northern suburbs.

Police will allege that about 3.20pm on Wednesday, December 1, a woman had parked her Range Rover stationwagon at her Klemzig home when she was approached by a man armed with a knife.

He threatened the woman, who had her two young children in the car with her.

He was accompanied by another man, who also stole personal property from the woman’s home, including a green Holden ute.

The victim and her children got out of the car then the suspect drove off in the station- wagon, while the other suspect drove off in the ute. The woman and her children were not injured.

Just before 5am on Thursday, witnesses reported seeing the green ute being parked in Oratanga Road, Modbury North.

The suspect then covered the ute with

a tarp before joining three other suspects in the stolen Range Rover, which was near-by.

The stationwagon drove off, but was spot-ted by patrols on Montague Road heading east about 10 minutes later.

It was pursued along other roads including Wright. Nelson and Kesters roads.

Road spikes were deployed but the sta-tionwagon managed to drive around them on Martins Road.

The stolen car collided with a patrol car near the intersection of Whites and Diment roads at Salisbury North. A police officer in-side the car suffered minor injuries.

The Range Rover was abandoned and all four occupants were arrested.

A 25-year-old Elizabeth Vale woman, a 20-year-old Nuriootpa man, a 15-year-old Hope Valley boy and a 19-year-old Mans-field Park man will face numerous charges including aggravated robbery, illegal use of a motor vehicle and theft.

Four held over stolen car

Four times over limitA MAN has lost his licence after being caught almost four times over the legal lim-it on Sunday.

About 9.20pm, police were called by mem-bers of the public in relation to a motorhome being driven erratically on Port Wakefield Road at Port Wakefield.

The vehicle was intercepted on Port Wake-field Road at Two Wells.

The driver, a 45-year-old Hillbank man, submitted to a breath test and returned a read-ing of 0.213.

He lost his licence on the spot for 12 months and his motorhome was impounded for 28 days.

He has been reported for drink-driving and will be summonsed to appear in court at a later date.

Deli robbed at Gawler SouthA MAN has been charged following a theft at Gawler South on the weekend.

Just after 10.45am on Saturday, December 4, Barossa police were called to Dodd’s Deli on Adelaide Road after reports cash had been stolen from the premises.

Following an investigation, police attend-ed an Evanston Park address and arrested a 27-year-old man.

He was charged with theft and bailed to ap-pear in the Elizabeth Magistrates Court at a later date.

A MAN has died following a fatal crash at Mount Crawford on Tuesday morning.

About 5.45am, police and emergency ser-vices were called to Forreston Road at Mount Crawford after reports a car collided into a tree.

The driver of the vehicle, a 21-year-old An-drews Farm man, died at the scene.

The passenger, a 21-year-old Andrews Farm woman, was taken to the Royal Adelaide Hos-pital, where she was being treated for non-life threatening injuries.

A four-year-old and a five-year-old, both from Andrews Farm, were also in the car. They were taken to the Women’s and Children’s Hospital, where they were being treated for minor injuries. Forreston Road was closed between Martin Hill and Warren roads for several hours while Ma-jor Crash officers investigated the cause of the collision.

The man’s death is the 93rd live lost on South Australian roads compared to 87 at the same time last year.

Paver, wine drive to help health

THE people have spoken – and they still want the Rotary Club of Gawler Light’s colourful riverbank Christmas display to shine.

In August, The Bunyip reported the service club’s members asked them-selves: “Does the public still think the Christmas display is still relevant today?”

The response to the club’s survey on its Facebook was overwhelmingly positive, club president Marie-louise Lees said last week at the display site near the Mill Inn Bridge, on the banks of the South Para River.

“There was only one person who didn’t think the display was still rele-vant,” she said.

“It’s a really significant display that brings a lot of joy to the people of Gawler.”

Five Rotarians spent about 10 hours putting up the display, which features Father Christmas and his reindeer, lights and music equipment on the weekend of November 27 and 28.

Each night Christmas music is played from 8pm to 9.30pm and the lights remain on until 11pm.

Rotarian Roger Freeman said the festive display was begun in 1994 by Gawler Women’s Apex Club.

When the Apex club was unable to continue staging the display, the Rotary club took over the role from about 2004.

Ms Lees thanked Rotarian Dave Perry for installing the impressive

lighting, Steven M. Clark Lawyers at 1 Adelaide Road for “being very generous in allowing us access to the site”, and artist Zana Thiele for her artwork.

In August, a Rotary club spokes-man told The Bunyip: “It’s not a question we have asked the commu-nity previously and have always as-

sumed that yes, it’s an important part of Gawler’s Christmas and therefore it must go on.

“What we would like to do is gen-uinely ask whether displays like ours still have a place in the community or do we do it to make us feel good?

“Is it still suitable in its current style or would it be better to move

into the electronic world and provide a light display reflected off a prom-inent building in Gawler for all to see?”

The display will run until about a week after New Year’s Day, with the nightly music switched off after Christmas Day.

SOUTH AUSTRALIA.

NEW Attorney-General Josh Teague and Treasurer Rob Lucas were among high-pro-file guests at a well-attended yet informal “Pollies in the Courtyard” event hosted by local members of the state Liberal Party at Gawler’s Cafe Nova on November 26.

Other VIPs included MLCs Heidi Girolamo and Nicola Centofanti.

The event, which included light refreshments, was the first of similar events scheduled to be hosted by the Light state electoral committee and Spence federal electoral committees lead-ing into the 2022 state and federal elections.

Each member had 10 minutes to give attend-ees an insight into why they entered the politi-cal arena and what they hope to achieve during their time in Parliament. They also answered questions from the audience.

Ms Centofanti reminisced on her time in Gawler, before sharing her experiences as a veterinarian across the state.

Former Speaker Mr Teague, who was elect-ed to the House of Assembly at the 2018 state election, spoke candidly about the life of a first-term member and the roles he had held.

Ms Girolamo, who filled the casual vacancy caused by resignation of David Ridgway on Au-gust 24, is the newest member of Parliament.

She is already serving on nine committees as well as being a small business owner, wife and mother.

Mr Lucas is the longest serving member and will complete 40 years of service to the Parlia-ment and the people of South Australia when he retires at the next election.

He shared many joyous stories of his four decades in Parliament, emphasising the strength of the state’s economy despite the COVID-19 pandemic.

“The politicians mingled with the attendees, who enjoyed the opportunity to engage one-on-one with our up and coming leaders and our outgoing Treasurer, who has given outstanding service to the people of South Australia and the Liberal Party,” a Liberal spokesman said.

“It was a well received and enlightening eve-ning, which left attendees feeling very impressed with the next generation of members and optimis-tic about the future of the party and our great state.”

TRIBUTES have poured in for Gawler-born and raised theatre producer, director, writer, performer, publicist, art critic, entrepreneur and journalist Matt Byrne, who died last week. He was 63.

Byrne was recently admitted to the Lyell McEwen Hospital with pneumonia after re-portedly battling illness for 12 months.

Dozens of tributes have been posted on Facebook, many from amateur theatre actors who were given their break by Byrne.

Byrne, who started as an actor at the North-ern Light theatre Company at the Shedley Theatre at Elizabeth, was a prolific writer, ac-tor and director of local theatre shows through his company Matt Byrne Media.

His original comedies were a staple of the Adelaide Fringe for many years.

Productions that he directed and starred in included 12 Angry Men, Wicked, Saturday Night Fever, My Kitchen Fools, We Will Rock You and Hott Property.

Last year he performed The True Story of Dad, about his beloved late father Kevin, who was as passionate about AFL team Port Ade-laide as his son.

Byrne’s last production was The Odd Cou-ple at Holden Street Theatres in November 2020.

He also worked as a journalist at Messenger Newspapers in the 1970s and ’80s and also at now-defunct evening newspaper The News.

In 2016, Byrne was awarded the Richard Flynn Award for sustained excellence and contribution to theatre in South Australia.

GAWLER’s 16 Days of Activism cam-paign to fight domestic violence (DV) will conclude with a twilight vigil and remem-brance service tomorrow.

The event – to remember courageous women and children who have been killed through DV – will be held from 5.30-6.30pm at Gawler South Playground and Park, on the corner of Adelaide Road and Fifth Street.

Those attending will hear the bells from a nearby church toll. People are asked to BYO chair if needed.

The 16 Days campaign has been co-ordi-nated by the Gawler Domestic Violence Net-work, in collaboration with the Zonta Club of Gawler and other local organisations.

Last Saturday, people dressed in orange,

which symbolises a brighter, violence-free future, met at Gum Tree Plaza to hear Gawl-er Mayor Karen Redman speak about DV.

Those attending then walked down Murray Street to Walker Place then to Pocket Park to learn about the Gawler Memorialisation Mo-saic Mural Project.

People were given orange cupcakes and listened to the women’s Pleasin’ Choir sing, culminating in everyone joining in with I Am Woman.

Zonta members had earlier installed “Gawler Says NO” banners throughout the town and “oranged up Gawler” with bows, ribbons, poster and displays.

For more details on the vigil, contact Kim Wright on 0408 192 143.

SO, Christmas is coming. Not that many sleeps away now!

Can you remember your excitement as a child waiting for presents?

Giving is good. It is good to give and receive.

Christmas focuses this for us. The tradition of giving and receiving gifts,

is based on the fact that the wise men that we read about in the Bible, actually gave gifts to the baby Jesus.

Gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. These men gave to acknowledge the birth

of Jesus. Their giving marked the birth of a baby

boy, born in an animal shed, lying in a cattle feeding trough for His cradle, as the one who was the King and Saviour of the world.

Amazing, extraordinary and wonderful!Here is something to ponder. God sent Jesus to this world, His gift to the

human race.Jesus came as a baby and as a man, showed

us His love by all the things He did for us.He went to the cross to die for each and

every one of us.And He rose again from the dead. He is

alive. Our part is to receive the gift.Why? So we can have forgiveness from

our sins. Why? Because God loves us so much that He sent

His Son into the world for us, and by putting our trust in Him we can live forever.

No wonder that we give one another gifts

to remind ourselves of the wonderful giving of God.

In the giving and the receiving this Christmas, I pray that the real meaning behind the gifts will come home in fresh ways to you, your family and to those around you.

At Gawler Baptist Church, we pray that you and your family have a wonderful Christmas.

CONSTRUCTION of Riverbanks College B-12 at Angle Vale is now complete.

Riverbanks is one of four new public schools to open its doors in term 1 next year as part of the State Government’s $1.4 billion education building program.

On Monday, more than 70 of the school’s newest staff members took part in workshops. They also familiarised themselves with their new contemporary teaching spaces before they welcome the first cohort of students at the start of next year.

The school will open with progressive en-rolments from 2022, starting with preschool to year 8.

About 500 students will attend the school on day one, with 1675 students expected to attend by 2026.

Premier Steven Marshall and Education Minister John Gardner met the team of spe-cialist and generalist teachers and support staff as they toured the new facilities.

Mr Marshall said the government was building what mattered, delivering world-class learning environments across the state that would “support young people to excel and inspire curiosity and success”.

“The breadth of Riverbanks College B-12’s build is absolutely incredible and the growing number of families in the north will greatly benefit from access to state-of-the-art early learning and education facilities at their fin-gertips,” he said.

“Local jobs have also been supported throughout the process, with a number of lo-cal businesses engaged to supply materials and services to support the build, as well as, of course, providing a well-deserved feed for those working on site.”

Six of Riverbanks’s new secondary years

teachers are in the group of 167 teachers from stand-alone primary schools who secured a high school teaching role in an SA public school for 2022 as part of the move of year 7 into high school.

The move has also seen more than 500 tem-porary teachers appointed into permanent sec-ondary roles across the state for 2022.

“Year 7 moving into high school has pre-sented opportunities for teaching staff to se-cure permanent roles, including more than 150 primary teachers moving to a secondary setting for the first time,” Mr Gardner said.

“This process has also provided job securi-ty for many of our valued educators on con-tracts, meaning we can retain more high-qual-ity teaching staff in our public schools.”

Riverbanks College B-12 principal Joe Pri-olo said: “Our team have come from public and independent schools across the state and, between us, we have a wealth of experience in the delivery of quality learning and a shared passion for successful learning and life out-comes for all our students.

“We have recruited highly skilled and highly experienced members of our leader-ship, teaching and paraprofessional teams, all of whom are passionate about realising our moral purpose of meeting the needs of every child, every day.”

The school provides areas for high-quality learning in the early years, primary, and se-nior school and offers connections between internal and external spaces.

Community inclusion is a key feature of the build, with many school spaces available for community use outside of school hours such as the sporting facilities and gymnasium and 300-seat performing arts centre.

Riverbanks staff raring to open

A $40 MILLION health and education hub will provide health services to the north-ern suburbs and feature a state-of-the-art residential care home designed in line with key findings from a royal commission.

The development, known as Healthia, developed by aged-care organisation ACH Group, will be Australia’s first residential-care home built to limit the spread of infectious viruses such as COVID-19.

The hub next to the Lyell McEwin Hospital and in the Playford Health Precinct, is a joint venture by ACH Group, Northern Adelaide Local Health Network (NALHN), University of South Austra-lia, and Playford Council.

Healthia will include a 96-place residential-care home comprising eight small-scale homes, each with 12 private rooms, on more than 15,000 square metres.

The design incorporates findings from the Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety and best practice in dementia care.

Infection-prevention mea-sures include mechanical sys-tems that increase provision of fresh air to indoor areas and minimise recirculation and the spread of air droplets.

Each bedroom will have

direct access to the outdoors and living and dining areas will be more spacious for greater social distancing.

The first sod on the hub was turned last Thursday. Construc-tion starts this month on the hub, which is expected to be fully operational and welcome its first residents by June 2023.

UniSA will co-locate with a general practice and stu-dent-led allied health clinic open to the public on a full-time basis on weekdays.

Students will also under-take placement in the resi-dential care home.

ACH Group chief exec-utive Frank Weits said the aged-care organisation was proud to lead the partnership.

“Healthia will improve the health and lifestyle outcomes for Adelaide’s northern com-munity and reimagine residen-tial aged care,” Mr Weits said.

“The royal commission fa-voured the small-scale house-hold model for residential care as the home-like design promotes better quality of life for residents, especially peo-ple living with dementia.

“Healthia has been de-signed around a village mod-el. Within each home, there are spaces you typically see in every house, including a kitchen for residents to pre-pare and cook meals in, and a dining room and living

area to come together in.” NALHN chief executive Ma-ree Geraghty said Healthia’s location in the Playford Health Precinct would complement the Lyell McEwin’s role as a major provider of acute health-care in the north.

“The establishment of a vi-brant health precinct will allow us to increase collaboration with other service providers such as ACH Group, which in turn, will help ease pressure on our hospitals and reduce length of stay,” Ms Geraghty said.

UniSA’s Dean of Clini-cal Education and Equity, Professor Esther May, said Healthia would give students vital practical learning expe-riences during their degrees.

“We look forward to collabo-rating with ACH Group and the local community on innovative models of care,” Prof May said.

“UniSA’s health clinic will offer student-led ser-vices under the supervision of practicing clinicians.”

Playford Mayor Glenn Do-cherty said he welcomed con-struction of Healthia, which was an important contributor to the Playford Health Precinct.

“We’re thrilled to have Healthia in the precinct to care for our older residents in a suit-able home environment while creating new job opportunities in the expanding health sector,” Mr Docherty said.

WITH so many amazing destinations on our doorstep, South Australians are spoilt for choice.

We’ve got the Riverland area that traces the path of the River Murray, the beachside beauty of the peninsulas – Fleurieu, Yorke and Eyre – and the more arid but just as spectacular Gawler and Flinders ranges.

With overseas travel off limits, locals have been looking for other ways to spend their holiday dollars, with four-wheel-drive (4WD) and camper sales booming.

Multi-award-winning retailer, The Dirt Off Road Campers in Mount Barker, specialises in quality Australian manufacturing, with a large range of off-road hybrid style campers on display.

Owner-operators Mike and Anita Pavey are well versed in Outback travelling.

They have worked as key contributors to 4WD, camping and caravan publications, with travel a core requirement.

Since launching the business in 2014, they have helped hundreds of families discover off bitumen touring.

“National parks are a great resource, as they limit camping to balance recreation with conservation,” Anita said.

“You see more wildlife and there’s a better opportunity to soak up the beauty of an area.”

Mike and Anita advise buyers new to the market to look for a brand that has been around for a long time, with a proven record of reliability and one with a national dealer network,

so help is always at hand. “The servicing dealer is key to your buying experience – you want someone with a solid reputation for after-sales service,” Mike said.

“Servicing, repairs, and warranty.

“Look to Google reviews for a background check and dive deep beyond the influencers to the real customers.”

Awards, particularly those from peak industry bodies such as the Caravan and Camping Industry Association of South Australia, give an indication of a dealer at the top of their game.

LONG-TERM improvements to Owen Road near Hamley Bridge are being con-sidered by a State Government depart-ment, as photos circulating social media show multiple potholes, rough shoulders and a crumbling surface.

The speed limit along the troublesome stretch of road, just past Templers, was re-duced from 100km/h to 40km/h and 60km/h on Thursday last week in response to its se-verely deteriorated state.

A Department for Infrastructure and Transport (DIT) spokesman said repair works began on Monday.

“In the meantime, speed restrictions of 60km/h are in place over a 3.5km section of Owen Road, north of Horrocks Highway,” the spokesperson said.

“‘Traffic hazard ahead’ signage is in place to give motorists advanced warnings of the poor road condition.

“The department is also investigating lon-ger-term improvements to Owen Road to en-sure it remains safe for all users.”

For Magdala resident Jo-Lene Coffey and her family, the state of the road has been a growing concern for several years.

“Ultimately it’s just patch repairs and nothing substantial that actually resolves it and prevents it from happening in the fu-

ture,” she said. “...the main issues are during harvest season because you have a lot of heavy vehicles going up and down.

“Over time, things deteriorate, roads are patched, the trucks drive on them again and it’s just like a vicious, neverending cycle.”

Ms Coffey has begun circulating a petition calling for a more significant, and perma-nent, upgrade to Owen Road.

“(Last week), someone was heading to-wards me and they actually had to swerve off of the road otherwise they would have hit the pot hole, because it was over that whole lane,” she said.

“The roads are very narrow so even when you are on a reasonable part of the road, if you have a semi-trailer coming the opposite direction, there is really little to no room, and if you swerve just a little bit you end up on the gravel.”

The petition, which is addressed to mul-tiple authorities, including DIT, Infrastruc-ture and Transport Minister Corey Wingard, and Light Regional Council, can be found at chng.it/Z5zyKfrM.

As of Monday afternoon, it had already gained 650 signatures.

Anyone who notices a road maintenance issue requiring immediate attention can re-port it to the (24-hour) Traffic Management Centre on 1800 018 313.

THE annual general meeting of the Baros-sa Region Residents’ Association was re-cently held at Langmeil Winery.

Founded in 1987, the association has been reinvigorated in recent years, with a grow-ing membership of more than 200 and a re-newed commitment to its original vision of conserving the unique character and heritage of the Barossa.

In his report, president James Lindner rec-ognised honorary and legacy life members, expressing gratitude for their investment in the establishment of the association, and their ef-forts in laying a foundation for preserving the character of the Barossa, which underpinned and secured the economic growth of the region.

In articulating the group’s vision, Mr Lind-ner reiterated the immediate primary focus as “the strengthening of the Barossa Valley Character Preservation Act (2012), and, along with like-minded Barossa associations and lo-cal councils, to drive a sub-regional plan”.

“We hope that once we show we are a trusted ally, we can all come together to amend the Character Preservation Zone to

have clearer strength around the character of the region that encourages appropriate development in appropriate areas,” he said.

“We hope this will continue to protect the agricultural and natural landscapes that un-derpin the region’s economic prosperity well beyond our lifetime.”

Mr Lindner underscored the association’s commitment to being a trusted voice for res-idents and reminded those attending of the power of their collective voice.

Guest speaker and association founding member Robert O’Callaghan provided an insight into the group’s birth, as a response to the historical economic challenges in the wine industry, and imminent threat of subdi-vision of viticultural land.

The AGM endorsed the following commit-tee members for 2021-2022: James Linder (president), Cherie Hausler, Craig Hunter, Barbara Ludlow, Leanne Pfeiffer, Trevor Ryan, Michelle Tsujimoto, Eva Tscharke, Charlotte Williams, and Cathy Wills.

WHETHER you want to wake up to the blissful sounds of the Adelaide Zoo or looking to get away from it all, to feel like you are in the tropics, Aspen Holiday Parks have the perfect locations for you.

Aspen Holiday Parks have two properties in South Australia - Adelaide Caravan Park and Highway 1 Tourist Park, both with

numerous appealing features. Adelaide Caravan Park in

Hackney is just minutes from the Adelaide CBD and walking distance to the Adelaide Zoo.

It is a great base for a spot of shopping at Rundle Mall, taking in the culture of the Art Gallery of South Australia and the South Australian Museum.

And the Adelaide Hills wine region is only 30 minutes away.

Adelaide Caravan Park caters for everyone, with caravan sites and cabins, which range from one and two-bedroom cabins, accommodating up to six guests.

If you’re looking for accommodation further north, Aspen has you covered at Highway 1 Tourist Park.

The park on Port Wakefield Road in Bolivar is the ideal location to stay and enjoy all the

wonders of the Barossa Valley, while still being close enough to enjoy the nightlife of Adelaide.

Experience plenty of fun for the whole family with two pools at the property, two playgrounds and a large recreational room.

A spokeswoman said Aspen Holiday Parks had a knack for choosing beautiful spots around Australia.

“We have seven Holiday Parks,

three in New South Wales, one in the Northern Territory, two in SA and a Workforce Village in Karratha, Western Australia,” she said.

“Check out all our locations and what we have to offer at aspenholidayparks.com.au.”

We look forward to welcoming you soon.

ARIA Award winner for Best Live Act, Lime Cordiale, is the latest big name to join the iconic outdoor summer concert series A Day on the Green.

The Sydney pop-rock outfit, which formed in 2009, will be joined by Thelma Plum, Client Li-aison, The VANNS, merci, mercy, and Teenage Dads, in the Baros-sa, on April 12, 2022, as part of its expanded 12-stop festival The Squeeze.

The Squeeze day-long festival will take in Western Australia,

South Australia, Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland, in-cluding three A Day on the Green events, and has been programmed by Lime Cordiale with help from long-time managers Michael Chugg and Andrew Stone.

“We share a great vision with Chugg Music to be able to achieve something more than just making records,” a Lime Cordiale spokes-man said.

“This project is for the music industry and the hungry music lovers.

“We’re staying true to what we first set out to do, which is to showcase musicians that are more than just hype and hold an event that has more than just music.”

The Barossa A Day on the Green is being hosted by Peter Lehmann Wines, Tanunda, on Sunday, April 10, with tickets for The Squeeze festival going on sale last Friday.

A second Barossa A Day on the Green is planned for Saturday, De-cember 3, 2022, featuring US band The Killers as part of its Implod-ing The Mirage Tour.

MEMBERS of Tourism Barossa (TBI) and Barossa Grape & Wine Association (BGWA) have agreed that the two organisations are bet-ter together by voting in support of a functional merger.

As of January 1, TBI and BGWA will operate as Barossa Australia.

Tourism Barossa chair Jon Durdin said the merger was a great outcome for tourism operators and the Baros-sa in general.

“Barossa Australia offers a united approach that will deliver a stronger, more unified voice for all our stake-holders and members, and the wider Barossa community,” he said.

BGWA chief executive James March said the Barossa Austra-lia model brought together both

organisations with a mandate to promote the region’s brand, am-plify regional voice, grow the regional economy and generate member value.

The first six months will fo-cus on building the strategic pri-orities of the new organisation and recruiting a senior tourism professional to lead destination development.

The merger, the outcome of a two-year process and following extensive community consultation and engagement, has been led by a joint steering committee with the vision for the Barossa to be global-ly recognised as Australia’s world capital of wine and most desired destination.

C O M M U N I T Y members who attend-ed a recent forum about suicide preven-tion will be among the first to support an initial network for the Light Regional area.

The Suicide Pre-vention Community Forum was held at the Kapunda Bowling Club last month, at-tended by 13 commu-nity members, as well

as three council repre-sentatives, and federal MP Tony Pasin and Liberal candidate Pen-ny Pratt.

The forum was fa-cilitated by Wellbeing SA’s Justyna Rosa and Tanya Malins of the Office of the Premier’s Advocate for Suicide Prevention. Ms Rosa provided a practical overview of how com-munity-led suicide pre-vention networks could

operate, based on local priorities and prefer-ences.

Support, including $5000 seed funding and equipment, is of-fered to communities from Wellbeing SA.

Planning is now under way for a fol-low-up meeting with community members to progress the estab-lishment of a Suicide Prevention Network in the Light region.

TANUNDA Lutheran Homes’ robot proj-ect was officially opened by Member for Baker Tony Pasin on Friday.

The aged-care facility celebrated the ar-rival of three robots with a naming cere-mony conducted by Pastor Ian Lutze, the TLH chaplain, introducing Axil, Robbie and Speckle.

Mr Pasin said the implementation of the technology was made possible through a fed-erally-funded grant of $890,671 via the Aged Care Support Improvement Fund.

“This Improvement Fund is aimed at im-proving provider governance and operations to ensure service continuity and longer-term sustainability through undertaking business improvement activities; I certainly believe this project is achieving this outcome,” Mr Pasin said.

“Tanunda Lutheran Homes are leading the

way, being the first aged-care organisation in South Australia to utilise the autonomous mobile robot (AMR) system.

“Thanks to the robots, there is even more time for resident-carer relations. The robots will save staff time, meaning more time can be spent doing what really matters.

“Now more than ever, we must make long-lasting changes to underpin the long-term sustainability of the industry and im-prove the lives of older Australians.”

Tanunda Lutheran Homes chief executive Lee Martin said with the support of Indus-trial Technology, Tanunda Lutheran Homes was paving the way forward.

“In a first for South Australia (in the aged care sector) robots will complete back-of-house tasks, saving staff from physical trol-ley movements and thereby optioning their time with residents,” he said.

BAROSSA Enterprises’ Munzberg Activity Centre at Nuriootpa was of-ficially opened last Friday, the 2021 International Day of People with Disabilty.

The $1.5 million Tolley Road centre, new home to Barossa Home & Community Op-tions, was opened by Human Services Minis-ter Michelle Lensink.

The occasion also served at a site open day of Barossa Enterprises’ production facility,

which helps people living with disabilities in local jobs and activities.

Special guests included Geoff and Helen Munzberg and their daughter Alison, after whom the activity centre was named, and Lib-eral candidate for Schubert Ashton Hurn.

Guests were welcomed by Barossa En-terprises chief executive Garry Velt, who thanked the State Government for helping to fund the Munzberg centre, and president An-drew Murphy.

A DEVELOPMENT ap-plication has been lodged for Tanunda Oval’s brand new playground, as on-site works for the broader rec-reational precinct upgrade kick off next week.

Official plans for the play-ground show an impressive nature-inspired play space with foosball table, kegel sculpture parkour, dual ca-ble way (flying fox), a bas-ketball/netball court, a ball/sensory wall, along with two large hammocks and a sepa-rate under shelter picnic area.

Play equipment includes a slide, wheelchair accessible carousel, in-ground trampo-lines – including one suitable for wheelchair access – and a sandpit with water-play func-tions.

It comes as Barossa Coun-cil on Monday announced the

official start to the $2.965 million redevelopment of the broader Tanunda Recreation Park precinct.

Key elements of the multi-layered project include widening of the main oval to create a regional-level facili-ty, new irrigation, multi-pur-pose junior sports oval and recreational space, three new cricket practice nets, plus bowling and cricket club storage, extensive landscap-ing and tree replanting, as well as the new playground.

The upgrades are jointly funded with the State Gov-ernment through the Office for Recreation, Sport and Racing and the Attorney General’s Department.

Tree removal will be the first sign of onsite works, with the project to be delivered through stages into 2022.

Barossa Mayor Bim Lange said there would be no net

loss of trees and that phased replanting would occur during uutumn 2022, and through to 2023.

“We are doing our very best to retain public access to the park throughout the works and minimise disruption wherev-er possible and safe to do so, but the scope of the work is complex and we apologise for any inconvenience during this time,” he said.

“We believe the commu-nity will see the long-term benefits and welcome the ex-citing improvements to this much-loved community and recreation precinct.”

The new playground has been earmarked for the north eastern portion of the oval precinct, on the corner of Park Street and Bilyara Road.

The existing playground to the south is earmarked for the future junior oval and will be decommissioned at a later date.

NEXT WEEK

TWO Wells resident Craig Bles-ing began brewing beers in his shed simply to enjoy the chal-lenge of making a tasty brew.

Two years later, it has grown into a passion for developing and refining his brew-making skills to the highest quality.

Craig said he “loves the process of brewing and creating a product people enjoy”.

“So many elements come to-gether to produce a multi-dimen-sional flavour palate,” he said.

“One change to the process can change the whole profile of the beer.”

Craig’s attention to detail re-cently paid off, winning first place for his American India Pale Ale (IPA) and first for his Dark Ale at the 2021 Gawler Show.

Both beers also won Best Exhib-it awards for their category.

Craig’s proudest brewing mo-ment was winning a gold medal at the Australian Amateur Brewing Championships in October for his

IPA, The Sneaky Preacher. “Be-ing able to enter at all was a thrill ,but winning the gold for the IPA category was a complete surprise,” he said.

He gained automatic entry into the Australian Championships after he came second in the State Amateur Brewers Show of SA for his IPA.

He used feedback received from the judges to improve his process and was pleased with the success.

He also gained recognition at the state awards with a second in Belgian Dark Ale and American Strong Ale categories and a third in American Pale Ale.

A professional drone pilot, Craig has dabbled in engineering and science-based projects his en-tire life.

Now part of Craig’s passion is to design and build his own brew-ing equipment, from stainless steel brewhouse through to the electron-ic equipment that controls the fer-mentation temperature to ensure the best quality of beer.

His brewhouse has become in-famous within the amateur craft brewing community, with several brewers coming to play in Craig’s brewhouse.

This opportunity has enabled the sharing of new skills, varied brewing

techniques and developing relation-ships in the brewing industry.

Craig said he got a kick out of the positive feedback he received from family and friends.

It inspired him to make better beer and challenge himself to at-

tempt new styles. With a dream of opening a brew pub to serve beer to customers who enjoy differ-ent styles, awards and feedback from judges in recent competi-tions suggest it’s time to realise that dream.

THIS WEEK’S NUMBER ONES

YOUNG south Australians view the COVID-19 pandemic as the most important issue facing the nation today, Mission Australia’s Youth Survey has revealed.

The poll of 2255 15-to-19-year-olds shows COVID-19 (47.7 per cent), equity and discrimination (36.4 per cent) and the environment (34.8 per cent), are the most important issues facing the nation for the state’s young people.

The Youth Survey, now in its 20th year, was conducted between April and August. The findings contained in the Youth Survey Report 2021 highlight the impact of the pandemic on young people.

This is the second year the survey has detailed compelling evidence of the impact of the

pandemic on young people in terms of challenges, concerns, experiences and creating barriers to achieving their goals.

Almost 32 per cent of young people who identified barriers to their work or study goals said COVID-19 was a barrier to academic achievement, along with mental health (51.2 per cent) and academic ability (39.2 per cent).

Mission Australia’s state director Mychelle Curran said: “Young people are showing they’re aware of and care about social, environmental and personal issues affecting themselves, their peers and their country.

“The findings shed light on how young people are coping with the pandemic. Listening to and acting

on these detailed insights is vital as we round out our second year of COVID-19 pandemic.

“Now is a critical time to make sure young people are heard. Young people can and should be actively involved in advising and designing solutions that will address issues that affect them, other young people, and Australia.

“The Youth Survey is a way of amplifying the voices of young people, and they are telling us that they want to feel heard in political and decision-making processes.”

“These responses are given in the context reactions to the COVID-19 pandemic such a lockdowns.”

The survey responses reveal the pandemic and associated public

health responses had a negative effect on young people’s health, wellbeing and education.

The top three areas South Australian young people identified as being negatively impacted by COVID-19 were participation in activities (65.5 per cent), education (52.3 per cent) and mental health (43.1 per cent).

Compared with SA males, females reported greater negative effectsof COVID-19 across all areas.

“Without the right supports and policy settings in place, there is

a real concern the pandemic will have long-term impacts on young people,” Ms Curran said.

Following COVID-19 as the top national issue, young people said equity and discrimination and the environment were also key national issues, and close to one quarter (23.5 per cent) were extremely or very concerned about climate change.

Ms Curran said these figures taken together with survey respondent comments showed climate change was taking a psychological toll on young people across Australia.

Pandemic biggest issue for state’s youth

RENEE CHAMBERLAIN, GAWLER YOUTH ADVISORY COMMITTEE CHAIR

THE Gawler community truly is one that is tight knitted and full of kind hearts.

I have been lucky enough to receive opportunities that have come straight from those banding together to maintain a good support foundation for those who need it.

As we’ve seen throughout 2020 and 2021 in response to COVID-19, a community setting is more important than ever.

Although the virus still evidently looms, life goes on.

Students in all grades have endured these challenging years whilst trying to maintain a core focus on their education, from online school to lockdowns to cancelled learning experiences.

However, we’ve all made it to the end of another school year.

This year’s year 12s are celebrating moving onto their future endeavours after having persevering and completing their studies, leaving them to decide a new path such as an apprenticeship or traineeship. Those wanting to further their education at university now have an anxious wait until Monday, December 13, when the year 12 ATAR results are released.

One thing we know for sure is that this generation is accustomed to change and have learnt to be versatile.

Thankfully, Christmas is coming, and that never changes.

After the year that has been, on behalf of the Gawler Youth Advisory Committee, we would like to wish everyone and their families a safe and merry Christmas.

HEWETT Primary School student Charlotte has been announced champion of the 2021 Gawler Show’s poster competition in front of her classmates.

Charlotte was presented with a certificate and her prize – a family pass to next year’s Show – at Friday assembly.

The year 6 student won Best Exhibit (for her year level) and overall Champion, for the school poster category, which was open across all local primary and high schools.

This year’s competition called on students to use their

imagination to both promote the show and incorporate this year’s United Nations theme of Peace and Trust.

Charlotte said she was excited to use her winning tickets to go to the Gawler Show next year, which will be the first time she has been.

She and her classmates worked on their posters over several weeks, first researching the meaning behind this year’s theme.

“I tried to incorporate things that showed peace and trust, like the dove,” Charlotte said.

“I put in a lot of colour to make it bright and stand out different from the others.”

Charlotte’s winning poster

has now been turned into the annual Gawler Show Christmas card, sponsored by the Woithe family.

Runner-up in the school poster year 6 category was Daeja Krause, followed by Nadia S. and Kobe Sweetman.

Winner in the year five category was Curtis L., with Olivia M. in second place and Peyton B. third.

Gawler Show entries administrator Donna Noble said she was excited to see what students came up with for their posters next year, which will be themed on the International Year of Artisanal Fisheries and Aquaculture.

MORE than 800 notices have been issued to landowners to undertake maintenance of land by Playford Council ahead of the bush-fire season.

Council’s fire prevention officer inspected 2125 vacant properties, with 601 notices is-sued to undertake maintenance, 287 to rural properties.

A total of 70 were issued in high fire-risk areas and 65 to residential properties where a service request had been received.

It comes as council improves its emergen-cy response plans to help in case of bushfire emergencies – an issue raised by Councillor David Kerrison at last month’s ordinary coun-cil meeting.

Council recently introduced a crisis man-agement response framework (CMRF).

It said this was the overarching structure for managing the operations of the organisation in preparation for, responding to, managing during, and recovering from an unforeseen event or crisis.

The three components which make up the CMRF are workplace emergency manage-ment, community emergency management and business continuity planning.

After Cr Kerrison’s question on notice, council administration explained: “As part of the introduction of the CMRF, the existing community emergency management plan and recovery management plan, which are public-ly available documents, were updated to re-flect current processes.

“Both these documents include internal op-erations manuals which provide guidance to council staff on their roles and responsibilities in emergency management; provide a frame-work for council to operate when responding to incidents of different natures and scales; man-age arrangements for the provision of council resources to support the emergency services, and enable a co-ordinated response to an emer-gency by supporting broader state emergency management arrangements.”

Renewal, upgrades Renewal, upgrades for playgroundsfor playgrounds

JACK HUDSON

PLAYFORD Council is set to upgrade and renew more play-grounds after significant improve-ments were made in 2020-21.

Council renewed Honeysuckle Reserve at Hillbank and Kevin Tay-lor Reserve at Blakeview in addition to the playspace upgrade at Fremont Park.

Playford Mayor Glenn Docherty said he was pleased with the up-grades made in the past financial year.

“Our city has more than 1000 hectares of open space,” he said.

“Fantastic parks, playgrounds, sporting ovals and reserves are lo-cated throughout Playford.

“They provide space for families

to gather and have fun, socialise, exercise and be connected to nature.

“The City of Playford will con-tinue with its renewal and upgrade program this financial year.

“We will be renewing the play-grounds at Dauntsey Reserve (Eliz-abeth), Michael Crescent Reserve (Hillbank) and the Munno Para Lin-ear South Reserve.

“We will also be installing shade sails over the playground at Eyre Sports Park.

“Major upgrades to the play-grounds will occur at Burdell Re-serve (Elizabeth Downs), California Avenue Reserve (Craigmore), Wil-lison-Goodman Reserve (Elizabeth South) and Mandeville Reserve (Davoren Park). The playground at Angle Vale Sports Centre will also be upgraded.”

CFS - Clint’s Fine ServiceJACK HUDSON

MANY know him as a Playford Coun-cillor, but Clint Marsh has played a key role at Dalkeith Country Fire Ser-vice (CFS) brigade for 15 years.

Now he has decided to retire to focus more on family and local government, ending a volunteer career that included a stint as captain of “the busiest brigade in the state”.

Mr Marsh joined the service at 17, with Dalkeith being one of South Aus-tralia’s most respected brigades, to help the community in addition to completing his school SACE certificate.

“The highlights that I have had were within a matter of three to four years,” he said.

“I was lured into the domain of fire-fighting, it became a passion of mine to further progress, which I never had an interest in to start off with.

“I was very heavily involved in football and needed something else to take on.

“Very quickly and within two to three years, it really took over my life.

“I started to commit all my personal time with the Dalkeith CFS.

“Being given the opportunity and guidance by long-term serving vol-unteers of Dalkeith, I was really taken under the wings of being able to go up

to the State Training Centre as a course assistant.

“I was taken to an event where they would demonstrate new technologies for road-crash rescues.

“My experience and exposure were really given a broad opportunity to take on.”

Mr Marsh said Dalkeith brigade had been through challenging times.

“… I actually was appreciative in be-ing a part of those challenging times, because we were changing from a rural brigade to a peri-urban brigade, meaning that our risk base changed significantly in what we would respond to,” he said.

“I look forward; I had to step away from the brigade to let them pursue new adventures going forward.”

Mr Marsh said he was now putting his focus into two important areas – family and involvement with local government.

“My sole drive now is local govern-ment,” he said.

“I really do have a passion, and I can’t go 80 per cent. I always have to go 100 per cent.

“Through social media, and through my engagements, if I’m going to commit to something, it has to be 100 per cent.

“I'm taking on a new journey now of local government and really working with the Deputy Mayor (Peter Rentou-

lis) and our new administration in driv-ing core focus for council.

“And you know, add a bit of family time in there as well because I can tell you from being captain of the busiest brigade in this state with a councillor of the ward one growth area, whilst work-ing full-time as a ‘firey’ as well, I had very little time for the family.”

Mr Marsh said he “definitely took on the little comments that everyone used to tell me out in the public, that while your kids are young, cherish the time with them”.

“I have seriously taken that advice on and it’s proved very worthy,” he said.

“But I’ll always be there to support Dalkeith. I’ll always be there advocating for them, now as a resident, or I’ll be ad-vocating for them as a councillor.”

He said he would miss the CFS and the camaraderie “and that is what Dalkeith and the CFS is all about”.

“I won’t miss going to incidents at all, waking up in the mornings or having your family or friends over and you’re hav-ing to get up and leave the situation that you’ve got to at home,” Mr Marsh said.

“But I miss the camaraderie of vol-unteering, the element of being able to work together to then come back to this station and being able to just switch off on firefighter mode.”

Clint Marsh is retiring from

FOR Rotary clubs across the world, De-cember is Disease Prevention and Treat-ment month.

The Rotary Club of Gawler Light said the service club organisation’s biggest world-wide project was “End Polio Now”, run under the banner of the Global Polio Eradi-cation Initiative.

This is a public-private partnership led by national governments with six partners – the World Health Organisation (WHO), Rotary International, the US Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF), Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and Gavi, the vaccine alliance.

Its goal is to eradicate polio worldwide. During the last week of November, the world has only reported one case of the wild polio virus (WPV), in Afghanistan.

It is one of the last two known locations of the WPV, the other being Pakistan. There have only been four recorded cases of the WPV in the world in 2021 - quite a remarkable achievement as civilisation ap-proach a world of zero cases of WPV.

“While we have fewer cases, there is still a risk that if we do not continue with the program of immunisation then it could es-cape and start to reinfect the world,” a Ro-tary Club of Gawler Light spokesman said.

“The journey so far has taken over 33 years to effectively remove the WPV from most continents.

“Its success now relies on raising funds and sponsoring volunteers to go into the last remaining countries and continue the immunisation of children using the oral vaccine.

“Some of us, as children, were intro-duced to this vaccine in the early 1960s. I can remember lining up to received my oral

sabine dose in primary school followed by the sweets we were given afterwards to take away the taste.

“We regularly saw children using crutch-es and wearing calipers on their legs mov-ing around the town and having to go to special schools for fear of passing on the disease to others.

“So, what can we do to help with the eradication process? Both Rotary clubs in Gawler conduct fundraising events at the Gawler Cinema in either October or De-cember to raise awareness of the End Polio Now campaign.”

Funds raised are donated to the campaign, and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation matches each Rotary dollar raised with $2 of its own to ensure the disease is finally eradicated from the world in the near future.

“We continue to inoculate for polio in Australia even though we have been de-clared disease free for some time its re-turn is not guaranteed while we still have the WPV in the world,” the Gawler Light spokesman said.

Gawler Cinemas will screen festive fantasy A Boy called Christmas as Gawl-er Light’s fundraising event on Sunday at 3pm.

Tickets can be bought online for $15 at www.trybooking.com/BVGBC and at Gawler Cinemas.

Raffle tickets will also be on sale at the event to raise additional funds.

“Come along and have some fun and sup-port the journey towards the eradication of the WPV in the world,” the spokesman said.

The Rotary Club of Gawler Light meets at the Gawler Arms each Tuesday at 7.30pm. More details are availble at www.gawlerlightrotary.org

Rotary aims to end polio scourge

WITH the fantastic sounds of The Birds and the Bees, photographic art display by Daniel James Down and an energetic poetry perfor-mance by SA legend Ni-gel Ford, the curtain came down on Gawler's 2021 MAP (original Music, Art & Poetry) event on Sunday,

The event – filled with hap-py hearts and smiling faces –was held in the beer garden of Gawler’s PA Hotel.

“It is very rewarding to see

such positive reactions from people who are listening to and connecting with music and spoken word for, on most occasions, the first time,” MAP convenor Martin John-son said.

“People enjoy new ex-periences, especially those provided by artists creating songs, poetry and artworks.

“There was laughter and hearty applause throughout the performances, both for the band and spoken word

poet Nigel Ford. “The dis-play Gawler in Photographsby Evanston-based Daniel James Down added a visual dimension to the afternoon, which appealed to both vis-itors to the town and locals.

“It was a tremendous and very rewarding afternoon.”

Martin said MAP sincere-ly thanked the support of local business, the PA Hotel licensee Staci McKenzie and “friendly staff”.

SCHOOL’S IN

St Jakobi Lutheran CampusTHIS term, the year 4/5 module travelled to the South Australian Maritime Muse-um as part of its maritime explorers unit.

A highlight was students experiencing a 30-minute river cruise aboard the Archie Badenoch, where they heard about a num-ber of significant historic ships undergoing processes of restoration.

They also toured the museum and ex-plored some of the challenges faced aboard a ketch during the 1700s.

The Encounters session exposed students to some of the significant Dutch, British and French visitors to our shores before colonisation.

Students shared their knowledge of how these interactions impacted the First Na-tions people who are the traditional custo-dians of this enormous, diverse land mass we now call Australia.

Kapunda High SchoolEXCITEMENT is growing in the school community as the triple-storey “Building A” nears completion.

The year 11 students are keen, in partic-ular, to move in as next year’s senior stu-dents. Internal fittings and furnishings are under way, as are the external landscaping.

Meanwhile, the temporary classrooms behind the gym have left the scene and the shipping containers have been moved to

their new home at the Trade Training Cen-tre in Hawke Street.

The student toilets have been completed and are now in use.

“Building B”, the middle school suite, has already been used for senior school ex-ams, transition visits and more.

PAUL WEBB, GAWLER HISTORY TEAM CHAIRMAN

WHAT a fabulous night we had for the last meeting of 2021.

The "show and tell" night attracted 46 members, with 13 of those presenting the item/s they had brought along, and then giving us the background to them.

The items were quite diverse, including an antique cruet set, American Civil War-style quilt, photos/articles on bottlebrush/sweet peas, and "guess who painted this picture?"

I thank every one of the pre-senters for the effort they put in on the night.

GHT members presented Bev Thom with a red, aromatic rose ("Mr Lincoln") in memory of Brian.

GHT member Milton Va-doulis donated this rose and we thank him very much for this. Bev thanked the members for the rose, as well as for all their support.

We also thanked our very generous sponsors for their sup-

port in 2021, allowing that they have been supporting us way before this.

We welcomed a new member in Anne Webb (aka my wife), and Claire Rundle joined on the night. A very warm welcome to both of you. We continue to grow the GHT team. However, I was also informed of the pass-ing of member Pat Harbison – vale, Pat.

We now have a well-earned break over Christmas and our next guest speaker night will be

on February 3, so no January meeting.

David Tucker will talk on the History of Gawler National Trust.

Some people have already registered, but because it is still some time away, I will send out a reminder to book closer to the actual date. However, if you wish to book sooner, please contact me on 0438 881 803.

So, though it is a wee bit ear-ly, I wish all our members a very happy and safe Christmas, and an even better new year, and thank them for their very valuable support.

Show and tell night a winner

THE Rotary Club of Gawler celebrated the ninth birthday of ju-nior member Harrison Clinch, son of past pres-ident Leanne Clinch, at its meeting last week.

Harrison’s great-grand-father Harrold Marsh was the club’s ninth presi-dent, his grandfather Bob Clinch was secretary for many years, and his mother Leanne was the first woman inducted into Gawler Rotary.

In 2008-09, she was the first female president, so it is not surprising that Har-rison attends regularly and is a great contributor to service activities.

Guest speaker at the

meeting was Alan Murray, who spoke about UCare’s financial planning and counselling services for veterans.

Alan spent nine years in the Australian Army and following his discharge, studied accounting.

He then spent 30 years in accounting, administra-tion and management po-sitions in government and industry.

After his retirement, Alan trained as a financial counsellor. It was during this time he identified a need to provide support for the veteran communi-ty, focusing on improving financial literacy.

The Veterans’ Well-being Pilot Project was

developed in 2020 and UCare Gawler now offers financial wellbeing edu-cation to ADF members and veterans on the base at Edinburgh and through ex-service organisations throughout South Austra-lia.

Alan emphasised it was a free and non-judgmental service emphasising edu-cation rather than advice.

Yvonne Thomas spoke about the Gawler Ucare’s Christmas hamper appeal, which provides Christmas hampers to those in need in the Gawler community.

Following Yvonne’s ap-peal for support, president Mark Smeaton announced Gawler Rotary would do-nate $500 to the appeal.

December 2021 • Week 2

FOR ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY

You need to be on your toes at the moment to work out what is going on. A favourable as-pect to Pluto may help to bring some secrets out of the closet. Romance: Don’t assume that other people are always right. You need to hold your ground without upsetting your partner.

CAPRICORN Dec 22 – Jan 19

You might be surprised how popular you are at the moment. An unexpected phone call later in the week will bring you back in touch with yet another old friend. Romance: Your ability to understand your partner’s feel-ings will help to bring you closer together. Don’t expect to see eye-to-eye over everything, however.

AQUARIUS Jan 20 – Feb 18

Rely on your intuition as far as possible this week. A favourable aspect to Neptune will help you to be especially sensitive to the energies around you. Romance: A new relationship will gradually get off the ground. Your feelings towards this person might not be quite as clear as you imagine, however.

PISCES Feb 19 – Mar 20

News from a friend will help to cheer you up. You need something positive at the moment and this is just what you have been looking for! Romance: Do your best to keep a recent friendship on a platonic level. This person may want more from you than you are prepared to give at present.

ARIES Mar 21 – Apr 19

A phone call from a friend will intrigue you. It won’t be obvious at first why this person has called. When you find out, you may wish that they hadn’t, unfortunately. Romance: Don’t let a recent concern about your love-life take energy from other areas of your life. You need to keep a proper balance.

TAURUS Apr 20 – May 20

A difficult aspect to Neptune could make you a little unrealistic and dreamy this week. This will be a good time for abstract thinking, but you may find it difficult to put your thoughts into action. Romance: Your partner may be slightly on-edge at times this week. Do your best to steer around any problem areas.

GEMINI May 21 – Jun 21

Relax before you say something which could upset someone. You may be a little tense at the moment, and will relish the chance to get into an argument. Romance: A close friend may suddenly start to become a little erratic. Before you criticise this person too harshly do your best to find out the reasons.

CANCER Jun 22 – Jul 22

A recent spending spree may have made a bigger dent in your wallet than you realise. Be especially careful with money, at least until you get your next pay cheque. Romance: Your ability to empathize with your partner will help you to avoid getting into an argument. When you can see things from their perspective it will be difficult to disagree with them.

LEO Jul 23 – Aug 22

An opportunity to meet old friends will help to give your social life a boost. Don’t be shy about accepting an offer from a person whom you hardly know. Romance: Your feelings towards a new admirer may be much stronger than you realise. Time spent in each other’s company will bring your emotions to the surface.

VIRGO Aug 23 – Sep 22

You must give yourself a chance to rest. You have been working far harder than necessary recently and should not feel guilty about giving yourself the chance to do something just for fun. Romance: Do your best not to get into a rut. A difficult aspect to Uranus may help to bring some unusual people into your life.

LIBRA Sep 23 – Oct 22

An improvement in your partner’s mood will be welcome. You might be surprised just how much difference a few days makes. Romance: A favourable aspect to Venus later in the week will help you to be a little more understand-ing of your partner’s faults. A softly-softly approach will work best.

SCORPIO Oct 23 – Nov 21

A difficult aspect to Pluto will help to bring some long-standing secrets to light over the next few weeks. Don’t be worried about the consequences, but don’t make light of other people’s concerns, either. Romance: A person who has a strong emotional hold on you may be pushing you to do something which is not in your best interests.

SAGITTARIUS Nov 22 – Dec 21

Three bedrooms in heart of Freeling

NEW research by the ACOSS/UNSW Poverty and Inequality Partnership shows renters on low and modest incomes are in the grip of a housing pincer, especially in regional Australia, as surging rents and the Commonwealth’s “neglect” of social and affordable housing creates acute stress.

The report notes while some states have recently increased their investment in social housing, they simply lack the financial fire-power to make up for a decade of neglect.

Four state Governments – Victoria, Queensland, Tasmania and Western Austra-lia – have announced significant self-funded public housing construction programs as a component of post-pandemic stimulus in-vestment, providing an investment of nearly $10 billion over the next few years.

While these programs will add more than 23,000 needed new homes to the stock of public and community housing over the next four years, more than 155,000 households are registered on social housing waiting lists across the country, with more than 400,000 households in need of affordable housing.

The report reveals that across Australia, newly announced social housing construc-tion will be patchy. For example, while Vic-toria and Queensland can anticipate social housing net growth of 8300 and 4400 units over the next three years, this will be little more than 400 in New South Wales.

ACOSS said even where states had stepped up, the Federal Government “must resume its historical role as the main funder of social housing development to come close to meet-ing demand; shifting this responsibility to the states is untenable”.

According to the report, regional rent rises are now outpacing metropolitan areas, par-ticularly in NSW, Victoria and Queensland, surging ahead by 12.4 per cent (to August 2021) and raising the prospect of growing homelessness in these overheated markets.

For regional Australia, the proportion of tenancies that low-income tenants can afford

has declined from 41 per cent to 33 per cent this year.

This percentage looks set to deteriorate further with the end of affordable rents for homes developed under the National Rental Affordability Scheme (NRAS).

ACOSS chief executive Dr Cassandra Goldie said the situation was getting dire for a wide range of Australians.

“Community organisations across the country are telling us about the growing lev-els of despair experienced by people trying and failing to find affordable accommoda-tion for their families in both metropolitan and regional areas,” she said.

“The situation for those on the waiting list for social housing feels increasingly hope-less, as individuals and families struggle to keep a roof over their heads in the face of ris-ing private market rents or are forced to stay in circumstances that are not healthy or safe.

“We need the Federal Government to step up and step back into this space and do some heavy lifting to both address the massive social housing shortfall and meet the future needs of a growing and aging population.”

Mission Australia chief executive James Toomey added to this, saying “Australia re-mains under a dark cloud when it comes to providing long-term housing solutions to ad-dress our stark nationwide shortage of social and affordable homes”.

“Alone, our states and territories simply don’t have the resources to address Austra-lia’s social and affordable home shortfall,” he said.

“With the recent ational review stating such a large investment is needed to address the shortage, our Federal Government holds the key. We need a national plan to end homelessness, where the Federal Govern-ment takes a lead role in investment, and that can also leverage private investment to cre-ate significantly more social and affordable homes.”

States’ housing step-up ‘no substitute’ for federal action

ANGASTON’S young bowling superstar Kate Argent-Bowden added another im-pressive piece of silverware to her trophy cabinet on Friday, taking home Bowls Australia’s Under-18 Female Bowler of the Year.

The win caps off a stunning year for the 16-year-old, who became the youngest play-er to ever win the South Australian Women’s Singles championship, while also taking home gold in the under-18s singles and triples.

With the year she has had, Argent-Bowden said the award was not a total surprise, but

it was humbling to be recognised on such a large stage.

“Since it was just over Zoom last year for the first time, I had kind of forgotten about it until after the Australian Open,” she said.

“Generally speaking, the winner of the Australian Open usually takes out this award, but it was still amazing to get that phone call from (Jackaroo coach) Gary Willis. I just had a cheesy smile on my face the whole time.”

Unfortunately, due to the timing of the Jackaroos reactivation camp in early January, Argent-Bowden will likely not get the oppor-tunity to defend her state singles title, but she said she was buzzing for the chance to finally go on a camp with the national team.

“I’ll still enter the state singles just in case the camp gets cancelled due to COVID-19, but I’m extremely excited to get up to the Gold Coast for it,” she said.

“I made some pretty good friendships from the Australian Open because the people were absolutely lovely and really welcoming, and it’s a great chance to play against all the Jack-aroo players.

“So far, everything I’ve done with the Aus-tralian squad has been over Zoom – we have calls at least once a week – so to finally get a chance to catch up in real life will be a lot of fun.”

Heading into year 12 next year, Ar-gent-Bowden had to recently make the diffi-

cult decision of putting her potential football career on hold, withdrawing from Central District’s squad and pulling her name out of contention for the state team.

“I just didn’t really have enough time to do it all – going into year 12, and working, and trying to manage somewhat of a social life,” she said.

“I just felt like I didn’t really want to go all the way with my footy, and I just play it for fun.

“I’m still going to play seniors at Angaston, but I’ll be dropping out of all the serious stuff for the time being to focus on bowls because things are going well and I’d like to see how far I can take it.”

TODAY at the Gabba, Redbacks wicketkeeper-batsman Alex Ty-son Carey, born and raised in Loxton, South Australia, will receive the 461st baggy green in Australian Test cricket.

He will be presented before the first Ashes Test against England.

Carey’s story is a long and wind-ing one, but I’m sure that Carey wouldn’t change a thing.

As a teenager, he played both Australian football and cricket.

As he got older, he started to play football at a higher level, playing for Glenelg in the South Australian National Football League (SANFL) reserves compe-tition as a 15-year-old.

In 2008, Carey was included in South Australia’s squad for the 2008 AFL Under-18 Champi-

onships, but he did not play any games.

He was also in the AIS/AFL Academy intake for 2008, before he continued to advance in 2009 and played for South Australia in the 2009 AFL Under-18 Champi-onships, in addition to winning the SANFL reserves premiership with Glenelg.

Carey turned down a rookie contract offer from the South Aus-tralian Cricket Association and moved to Sydney in 2010 to join the Australian Football League’s (AFL) new expansion club, the Greater Western Sydney Giants, who were playing in the TAC Cup

for the season to prepare for their entry into the AFL in 2012.

Carey captained the side, which made it to the finals and, despite missing the final four rounds due to injury, won the team’s best and fairest award.

He played for them again in 2011, in the North East Australian Football League, but wasn’t given a place in GWS’s inaugural AFL squad for the 2012 season, forcing a return to Adelaide.

Recently, footy legend Kevin Sheedy (a reasonably useful grade leg-spin bowler himself) explained the situation: “Over a coffee at the Rooty Hill RSL, after the 2011

season, I broke the news to Alex that he would be delisted.

“I told him we’ve got 20 mid-fielders, have a crack at cricket, mate.”

In April 2018, Carey was award-ed a national contract by Cricket Australia for the 2018-19 season

On May 8, just a month later, he was named vice-captain of the Australian T20 team.

In April 2019, he was selected in Australia’s squad for the 2019 Cricket World Cup.

Carey was named by the ICC as wicketkeeper in the Team of the Tournament for the 2019 World Cup.

In July 2021, Carey was named as Australia’s captain for Austra-lia’s first ODI against the West Indies in the absence of Aaron Finch, who was suffering from a knee injury at the time.

Now Carey, having already rep-resented Australia at the ODI and T20I levels, joins an exclusive group in achieving the trifecta of captaining at the highest levels.

I’m sure his pay packet and trav-els around the world would com-fortably beat anything that he may have eventually received at GWS – plus, with the added honour of representing your country, Carey should be forever grateful that he was delisted.

IN the best game of the young season, Gawler Rangers was matched against Woodville in division two baseball on Sat-urday, ultimately going down 3-5 after the Karbeethan Reserve clash went down to the wire.

After a huge two-run home run from Travis Schreier had tied the ball game at 3-3 in the bottom of the seventh inning, there was still time to play, and Woodville scored twice in the top of the eighth to deny the Rangers a result.

Neither side scored in the first three frames as Gawler pitcher Jake Rodda was well on top, conceding just one hit for five strikeouts in the period.

Woodville managed a run to go ahead in the top of the fourth, but the Rangers responded in the bottom of the dig, as Noah Okeil, Mor-ris O’Handley and Travis Schreier collected hits for a run to again tie up the ballgame.

An error in the fifth inning contributed one unearned run, as Woodville scored twice to go 3-1 up – a score-line that held up until the bottom of the seventh, when Schreier struck.

Rodda pitched six innings for three hits, with just one walk for five strikeouts.

At third base, Nathan Schreier had a great game, taking a catch and executing six assists, including gunning a runner for an out at home in the final inning. As for his brother Travis, it was his first division two home run, and third of his baseball career.

This Saturday, the Rangers travel to Ingle Farm to take on the winless Northern Dis-tricts.

There was some senior men’s joy at the

club when the Rangers’ division eight side knocked off top team Woodville 6-3.

A big first inning saw Gawler score three times, after hits to James Mustard and Link Ryan, and a huge two-run double by Jimmy Hope.

Woodville chipped away with single runs in the next three frames to tie up the ballgame, but the Rangers set up the win with a three-run rally at the bottom of the fourth.

Walks to Richard Stirling, Paul Casson and Luke Kluet loaded the bases, before a wild pitch scored the first run, Craig Alderslade hit a sacrifice fly to left-field for the second, and Ethan Pike had a RBI single.

With Woodville unable to score over the final two innings, it left Gawler as the upset winners, with pitcher Luke Ryan going the distance, conceding seven hits in six frames for four strikeouts.

The junior league division two team re-mained undefeated after a 12-3 victory over Adelaide.

A five-run third dig set up the win, and featured hits to Will Griffiths, Deakin Filko, Ross Oxford and Danle Andrews.

Oxford went the distance from the middle, pitching a complete game for eight hits and nine strikeouts.

Division two: Gawler Rangers | Woodville 3-5 (hits: Nathan Schreier 2, Travis Schreier 2 (hr), Rhys Argent, Noah Okeil, Morris O’Handley, Leighton Mells, Jake Rodda).Division three: Gawler Rangers | Woodville 0-17 (Josh Cedamon, Bailey Murray-Billings, Brenton Pike).Division eight: Gawler Rangers d Woodville 6-3 (hits: Link Ryan 2, Ethan Pike, James Mustard, Jimmy Hope).Junior League: Gawler Rangers d Adelaide 12-3 (Will Griffiths 2, Danle Andrews 2, Hudson Lee, Deakin Filko, Ross Oxford, Beth Lee).Little League: Gawler Rangers d Southern Districts 9-4.Minor League: Gawler Rangers | Kensington 9-3.

GAWLER horse racing’s “roy-alty” was able to celebrate a win together for the first time this sea-son at Wednesday’s Bung “Fritz-mas” race meeting.

Gary Searle earned the moni-ker of King of Gawler many years ago, but this season, he added the “Queen”, wife Nichole, and “Prin-cess”, daughter Breanna Callanan to the training partnership.

When sprinter Secret War won the LJ Hooker Gawler Colts, Geldings & Entires Benchmark 58 Handicap (1100m), Nichole revealed despite the partnership having a number of win-ners around the state, it was the first time all three had been on course at a meeting to celebrate the victory.

“With a team at Port Lincoln, each time we have had a winner, either Gary or Breanna have been away,” Nichole said.

“So, it was good today that we are all here.”

The Searles made it a double later in the day when Carry The Musket outstayed his rivals to win the Bung Fritz Association “Fritzmas Day” – Merry Christmas Benchmark 62 Handicap (1719m).

Both winners were ridden by sta-ble apprentice Ellis Wong, and Se-cret War could be headed to bigger events in Melbourne according to trainer Gary Searle.

“I’ve always thought he would be well suited to those 955-metre races at Moonee Valley,” he said.

“He jumps brilliantly to put himself up the front and I think he would take some running down.”

At Gawler, Secret War – a heav-ily-backed $1.50 favourite – flew out from gate two to assume the early lead.

Despite moving to the centre of the

track in the home straight, the six-year-old ran strongly though the line to score by nearly two lengths from Olive Grove ($8.50), which is also trained at Gawler by Aimee Bush.

It was the gelding’s fourth win from only nine starts.

Carry The Musket then proved he is an improving young stayer with a gutsy win in his event.

Runner-up Tatalina ($4.40) put a length on the Searle runner with 200 metres to go, but with Wong riding hard, he responded and came through to score by a head.

Hobo Road ($8) was more than a length away in third.

It was just Carry The Musket’s second win, but his second in a row, having won his maiden at Morphet-tville on Melbourne Cup day.

Trainer Gary Seale part-owns the winner with Gawler businessman Danny Dare and prominent owner John Martin.

The race was part of the TAB Southern Speed Series, and the trainers indicated the final would be a goal for the stayer.

Further down the card, Tanunda

jockey Barend Vorster gave 10-year-old gelding Sylvan Crest a perfect send off for Strathalbyn trainers Wayne Francis and Glen Kent.

Sylvan Crest ($3.90) scored by nearly three lengths in the Trimboli Services Benchmark 52 Handicap (1516m), with Kent revealing post-race that the event was the last for the ageing racehorse.

“He’s done a wonderful job during his career and today was his seventh win,” he said.

“He loves Gawler, and it was his third win at the track and trip from

just nine starts – and he was placed four other times.

“Now he can life a live of luxury on our property at Strathalbyn… he is a very calm horse and will be per-fect for helping teach younger hors-es, and he is perfect for youngsters learning how to ride.”

The next Gawler meeting will be the annual Christmas At The Races day on Saturday, December 18.

An excellent crowd is expected to be in attendance, with The Terrace restaurant already booked out and a number of marquees ordered.

TOP South Australian reins-man Mark Billinger won three of the Southern Cross finals at Globe Derby Park on Saturday, then announced he was taking a holiday.

Billinger said he was planning to have a year sabbatical, but it is pos-sible he may never drive again.

At Globe Derby, Billinger drove two-year-old trotter Mercenary, two-year-old filly Encipher and three-year-old filly Treachery to victory in their respective races.

“Following the five winners last week and three features tonight, I felt It was a good time to take a break,” Billinger said.

“I just haven’t been enjoying coming to the trots as much as I would have liked.

“Some Saturdays, I would like to go out with a few mates and enjoy life rather than being locked in to coming to Globe Derby Park.

“I also have a few holidays planned which hopefully I can take, one to Hawaii and another to Thai-land.

“Rather than driving at random times, I felt it best to have a break,

and I’ll see how I feel in about 12 months.”

Billinger is the king of the South-ern Cross series, having won 22 heats and finals since his first suc-cess 30 years ago.

The Southern Cross Series pro-vided two good results for Da-vid Battye and his Buckland Park Homestead.

Firstly, he bred and owns Merce-nary, which is trained in Victoria by Kelvin Barker.

Mercenary ($1.50 favourite) travelled well for Billinger, but the driver was careful not to dis-rupt the two-year-old’s rhythm in scoring a long-head win from My Bad Habits ($5) with Graywoods Diamond ($4.80), 37 metres away third.

Battye also owns and bred Tup-pence ($1.22 favourite) which turned in a tough effort to win the Three-Year-Old Pacing Colts & Geldings Southern Cross final (2230m).

Driver Danielle Hill was happy to sit parked on Tuppence before drawing clear in the home straight to score a one-and-a-half metre win from Sanur Beach ($81) with Ar-tillery ($6), two-and-a-half metres away in third.

Penfield trainer Jill Neilson also had an action-packed night, grab-bing a Globe Derby Park double.

My Used To Be ($1.20 favourite) led throughout in the TAB Three-Year-Old Trotters Southern Cross final (2230m) scoring by three-and-a-half metres from Ten No Spur ($9) with Lovelorn ($6), a stable-mate of the winner, nearly 15 me-tres away third.

Neilson then won the Two-Year-Old Pacing Colts & Geld-ings Southern Cross Consolation (1800m) with Just Chai, driven by Danielle Hill.

The night’s most impressive win-ners were Encipher and Treachery, both trained in Victoria by Emma Stewart.

Encipher was bred and is owned in Kadina by Tyson Linke,

The $1.35 favourite showed great speed from gate six to cross and lead in the Two-Year-Old Pacing Fillies Final (1800m).

Once in front, driver Mark Billinger gave her a comfortable time dashing away to win by five-and-a-half metres from Elegant ($3.20), with Flirting ($16), more than 15 metres away third.

Encipher rated a smart 1:56.2 and dashed home her last 800

metres in a swift 55.3 seconds. Treachery is a daughter of Lov-elist, which was unbeaten in five runs at Globe Derby Park and won both the Two and Three-Year-Old Southern Cross finals in her years.

Her daughter has now repeated the feat and stays unbeaten from four runs at Globe Derby Park.

Billinger drove Lovelist to her wins and said she was a smart filly – but feels Treachery was even better.

Billinger rides off into sunset

TOP-RANKED, undefeat-ed Angaston was pushed all the way in Saturday’s Barossa & Light Bowling Association division one game away at Nuriootpa, with the two sides sharing the points 82-82.

Illustrating the hard-fought nature of the contest, each team only won one rink each – both by eight-shot margins – while the other two rinks were tied.

The draw was Angaston’s second of the season, allow-ing Kapunda to pull even in the wins column, despite hav-ing two more losses.

Kapunda took full advan-tage of the opportunity to close the gap to the league leaders, impressively win-ning away from home against third-placed Tanunda 119-80.

The away side swept all four rinks, with the crews skippered by Ian Otterspoor (37-21) and Adrian Green (36-20) doing the most dam-age.

Eudunda put some space between itself and the league’s bottom tier when it collected its third win of the season at home against Freel-ing 95-82.

The two sides shared the rinks 2-2, but an im-pressive 29-12 rink from the Eudunda four of Judith Milde, Daniel Doering, An-drew Pfitzner and Tait Rog-ers opened up the winning margin.

Mount Pleasant remains at the bottom of the table along with Freeling after a 86-105 loss away at Lyn-doch, despite John Webb’s crew winning its rink 15-28.

The Lyndoch crew of Dar-ren Cook, Rob Idel, Dylan O’Leary and Wayne Wil-liams led the way, taking their frame 33-14.

In division two, Kapun-da held onto top spot after a nail-biting 70-69 home win in its clash against fellow top-three side Tanunda.

Kapunda only won one rink on the day, but the 25-13 result from the four of Peter Earl, Richard Atkins, Terry Noack and Grant Wilton got the job done by the barest of margins.

Second-placed Nuriootpa is breathing down Kapunda’s neck after banking another solid 73-62 win at Freeling, taking two rinks and drawing the third.

In division three, Tanunda and Nuriootpa appear set to battle it out for top spot all season after both collected their seventh win on Satur-day – three clear of the chas-ing pack.

Nuriootpa defended its home turf against Eudunda with a 55-49 win, while Ta-nunda was successful on its trip to Angaston.

AN important away win against third-placed Semaphore keeps Gawler's Thurs-day division one ladies firmly in touch with the top-four.

On yet another blustery day, the ladies took all rinks to finish the match 13 shots up.

Most impressive of the rinks was the four of Val Clark, Jackie Goodrich, Kay Skuse and skipper Dawn Warland, who won by seven shots against a previously undefeated crew.

The team has an opportunity this week to further improve its position when it hosts new-ly-promoted and lower ranked Blackwood.

Gawler’s division three side did itself proud with a tremendous one-shot win over top team Two Wells.

Although winning only the one rink, it was by a sizeable nine-shot margin courtesy of the four of Gail Harris, Val Blows, Mona Lacey and Wendy Wright.

Travelling to Modbury this week, Gawler has a good chance to add to its win column with the Modbury grass similar in speed and line to the Gawler carpet.

On Saturday, second-placed Marion had home-ground advantage and a bit too much class for Gawler's division two team.

The 18-shot loss was a reflection of where the two sides sit, but the three points scored by the Gawler team keeps it within one win of the top-four.

Leigh Robert's lads did well to grab a draw, and the crew of Terry Haycock, Teresa Dean, Phil Marsden were superbly led by Darren Hunter for a day out, rolling their opponents 28-10.

In a battle for third spot, visiting side Hope Valley collected a surprising 15-shot win over Gawler's division four team.

Despite home turf advantage, the locals could only manage to take Darrell Turner's rink, and the 14 points scored by the visitors sees Hope Valley and Gawler change positions, with the former leapfrogging the latter into third.

A game clear of Playford Red, it now faces bottom side Playford White to get back in the winner's circle and further consolidate its top-four position.

Despite winning three of the four available rinks, Gawler’s division five side snuck home by only four shots against lower-ranked visit-ing team Modbury White.

Maintaining its top-four spot courtesy of the 14 points it scored for the match, it is a timely reminder of having to be on your game each and every time you take the green.

Shirley Branson continued her good season, guiding her charges to a seven-shot win, while the four of Marsh, Betton, James and skipper Cousins – who seems to be relishing the role – were too good for their opposition, finishing nine up.

The standout performance for the Gawler club came from its division six team, who knocked off top-ranked Playford Red on its own deck.

With the rinks split, it was the big result from Chris Cufone, Brian Barker, Barry God-frey and Bill Anderson who did the damage, taking their rink in grand style 26-9.

The nine-shot win sees the side with a win-loss count of 4-4, and with a home game against bottom side Clearview on deck, an im-provement of its current sixth position is on the cards.

LACHLAN STACE

LEWISTON trainer Kevin Be-wley had a busy week at the greyhound track – with runners nominated at Murray Bridge on Tuesday, Gawler on Wednesday, Angle Park Thursday and Gawler on Friday.

He opened up his winning ac-count at Gawler on Wednesday

when his greyhound Imperial Mas-ter led nearly all the way from box seven to win by a head in a time of 23.33.

He backed it up on Thursday night at Angle Park, where grey-hound Finnis Storm took out the opening race on the program at in-credible odds of $101, running a time 31.66 over the 530 metres in a massive upset.

Bewley returned to Gawler on Friday and added to his success with a win courtesy of Raging Crit-ter, leading all of the way from box one in the second heat of the Mas-ters series in a time of 23.19, qual-ifying for the Masters Series Final next week in the process.

Friday was a big day for Gawler Greyhound Racing Club president Mike Wittholz, who scored a double.

He only had two runners engaged in the race meeting, and they both got the job done.

His first winner for the day was in race four when his young-er greyhound, Universal Value, scored his third career win from just eight starts.

He pounced on the early leaders at the midway point, taking over to run home strong in a time of 23.26.

Wittholz struck again in race eight when veteran chaser All Out Crazy made it career win number 32, running a time of 23.00 in the process.

Racing returns to Gawler on Wednesday afternoon and Friday afternoon this week, and spectators are invited to head up to Nixon’s Function Centre for a feed while enjoying the racing.

CLUB NOTES

NetballGAWLER AND DISTRICT: Seniors Round 7: A-grade – Sandy Creek Blue 35 d Central District 23.

Sandy Creek Blue played a solid, consistent game against Central District, who did not have half of its regular team on court. Sandy Creek’s two-goal margin at � rst quarter progressively increase for a convincing win.

Sandy Creek Green 30 | Willaston A2 32.An evenly matched game after a slow Willaston start

in the � rst quarter, with the Donnybrooks capitalising on a few turnovers to equal the score in the second quarter. Neck and neck, goal-for-goal, the score remained even to � nish the third, but it was Willaston that was able to inch ahead slightly to win by two.

Dragons 36 d Willaston A1 30.Dragons had a comfortable lead for the � rst two

quarters, keeping Willaston at bay, but an impressive third quarter from Willaston was able to slow down the Dragons, winning the quarter 6-11 to set-up an exciting � nish. Unable to sustain the momentum, there was an equal reply in the fourth from Dragons and Willaston went down by a modest six goals.

B1 grade – Xavier Saints 33 d Freeling 16; Sandy Creek 24 | Willaston 31; Kapunda 29 d Mallala 25.

Mallala 20 | Lutheran 26.Good start by Lutheran with great pressure in

defence forcing errors by Mallala in the � rst quarter. Back on track in the second, Mallala kept inching closer, with the third quarter an even match, separated by only one goal.

The last quarter saw the two teams matching each other goal for goal, however, capitalising on a few forced errors gave Lutheran the edge for the game.

B3 grade – Willaston 32 d Barossa District 16; Gumnuts Purple 27 | Central District 30; Gumnuts Jade 34 d Sandy Creek 23.

Juniors Round 7: Under-11 division two – Barossa District 8 | Sandy Creek 11.

Barossa District and Sandy Creek both had a good start to the game, with both teams working hard to gain possession.

Sandy Creek took the early lead, and then surged ahead in the second quarter to have a strong � ve-goal lead at half time. Barossa bounced back in the third quarter and out-scored Sandy Creek to minimize their lead to one going into the � nal quarter, but a consistent last quarter saw Sandy Creek hold on for the win.

Freeling 7 d Willaston 6Both Freeling and Willaston fought hard for the ball

the entire game, exchanging the lead throughout, with Freeling winning by one in the � nal quarter.

Xavier Saints Yellow 0 | Xavier Saints Green 4

SoftballGAWLER AND DISTRICT: Division one: Giants | Kangas 1-12

Both sides started well defensively with neither team scoring in the � rst inning.

Kangas were then able to get some runners on base, and with � ve successive safe hits managed to pull away to lead by four runs.

Carlijn Hill was once again dominant in the pitcher’s circle, only allowing four safe hits for the game with four strike outs.

Brooke Clark was the standout batter for Giants with two safe hits, ‘batting 1000’ for the game.

Carlijn Hill also batted 1000 for Kangas, including a triple, while Bronwen Smith hit a triple and Jenny Freeman smashed a home run for Kangas.

Bluejays | Two Wells 4-13Two Wells batted � rst, getting its runs on the board

early with some nice hitting from Heather Baldock, Jacqui Baldock and Krystal Doudle securing Two Wells’ � rst three runs.

Two Wells then set the tone defensively, holding Bluejays scoreless in response.

Bluejays pitcher Staci McKenzie returned the favour to keep her side in it, holding Two Wells scoreless in its second innings, and then fought back with their own three-run response thanks to Emma Young, Staci McKenzie and Ellen Stephens.

Two Wells powered back to put the game away with a ten-run innings with some lovely bats from Krystal Doudle, Sally Green and Nikki Ruediger, with the innings � nished o� by a massive home run from Jodie Chammen.

Division two: Kangas Grey d Two Wells 14-8Two Wells started strongly with a seven-run innings

after some solid hits to left � eld from Amelia Benn and Ethan Packham, but Kangas � red right back with their own seven-run dig after beautiful safe hits from Kim Storton and Kelly Varcoe.

Two Wells failed to score in its second innings and

Kangas took this chance to pull away, again batting well to score seven runs with aggressive base running.

Two Wells player Emily Klopp managed a � nal run for the game with a nicely timed hit to left � eld and her players pushing her around the diamond.

Giants | Kangas Blue 0-16It was a dominant batting display by the entire

Kangas line-up with four batters batting 1000 and 21 total safe hits for the game.

Monica Roach smashed two home runs, with one each to Tammy Warner and Jasmin Mulvey.

The standout batter for Giants was Mikayla Johnson, who also registered a hit with each of her at-bats.

Vanessa Silvy battled hard in the pitcher’s circle for Giants, achieving three strike outs for the game while Jess Wheatley only allowed three safe hits and achieved two strike outs as the Kangas pitcher.

Under-14: Giants Black d Trinity College 7-3A strong � elding innings by Giants restricted Trinity

College to three runs, with the Giants then responding with a seven-run innings themselves set up the win.

Sebastian Farrugia was Trinity College’s best batter with two safe hits to centre � eld, while Giants had a number of strong batters – Riley Hartup, Jett Donaghy, Ashia Scott (home run) and Tyler Hunt-Collins, to name a few.

Kangas d Giants Red 14-0Despite Giants Red getting two runners on base,

Kangas held them scoreless in the top of the � rst innings, setting the tone for what was to come.

In the bottom of the � rst, a massive homerun over centre-� eld by Blake Rosenzweig brought in three runs for Kangas. Then, with runners in scoring position, Mataia Silvy from Giants Red took a pop-� y catch as pitcher and threw to second base for a spectacular double play.

Giants Red couldn’t score in the second innings with some strong pitching by Chelsea Varcoe.

Under-17: Kangas d Giants 9-8 It was an interesting game with Kangas only going

ahead in the last innings. Kangas were able to bat well, whereas Giants mostly got on base through walks.

2ND SEMI FINAL Sept 3Willaston

A NEW team has been born into the Barossa, Light & Gawler Football As-sociation’s women’s ranks after Ka-punda and Freeling made the decision to merge their women’s programs.

The team will play under a new, yet-to-be-announced name – with BL&GW chairperson Adam Butcher confirming the team would represent the Light re-gion – and will wear newly-designed playing uniforms that are expected to incorporate the red colour associated with Kapunda and Freeling.

The idea came from Butcher after both clubs struggled with numbers in under-16s and seniors, and he said he feels it is necessary to keep up with the growth of the rest of the league.

“With the way this league has been

progressing, it was going to make it harder for those clubs to be competitive with the population base of the towns,” he said.

“I sat down with Tor Eaton from Freeling and Peter Tralaggan from Kapunda and put forward the idea of merging the two clubs, but only for un-der-16s and above because both towns have a primary school that they can get under-13s from.

“You only need 15 or 16 girls for an under-13s team because they play 12-a-side, whereas for under-16s and seniors on the full oval you really need 22, and that was making things hard.

“Another problem the two clubs faced was that there were already quite a few girls from Freeling playing at Kapunda already since Freeling couldn’t get a team up for 2021, and even towards the back end of the year for Kapunda it was hard to get a team together, so splitting them back up was not really an option.

“This felt like a way to bring the two towns together and secure female foot-

ball in the area for the future.” Freel-ing’s Tor Eaton may have been the perfect person to pitch the idea to since her daughter, Sophie Eaton, took home the 2021 under-16 league medal while playing for Kapunda.

Eaton said she did not want a situa-tion where local girls felt they couldn’t achieve their goals playing at their home club.

“We need to keep up with the other teams in the BL&G, and realistically we are probably the smallest town in the league,” she said.

“We want to be competitive, and we want our girls to be serious in the sport, but ultimately it’s all about enjoyment, and we want them to be able to come back year after year because they decide it’s a positive, sustainable place to be.

“Freeling and Kapunda work very well together, and I know we have a very committed core group of people who just want to see it grow, so this is a very exciting time.”

Bilney, Launer and McIver highlight reserves actionLIAM PHILLIPS

A SIX-WICKET haul from Gawl-er Central’s Cameron Bilney helped the Tigers restrict Truro to a score of 151 at the Dog Track on the first day of their two-day Barossa & Light Cricket Associa-tion A2 clash.

It was a solid start for the visitors,

making their way to 1/72 before Bilney broke through, taking three quick wickets to make it 4/80, be-fore his fourth made it 5/98.

With momentum firmly on the Tigers’ side, Bilney (6/34 with five maidens from 19 overs) and Stewart Brading (2/33 from 13 overs) made light work of the middle and tail or-ders to salvage a strong first day.

Eudunda-Robertstown’s Blake

Launer is in rare form, backing up last match’s 194 runs with another 145 from 118 deliveries, including 24 boundaries.

Launer and Angus Handke (75 from 107) led their side to a com-manding score of 318 for Kapunda to try and chase on Saturday.

As impressive as Launer was with the bat, the Willaston bowl-ing combination of Mitch McIver

(6/17 with seven maidens from 18.3 overs) and Luke Dunn (4/26 from 10 overs) was just as dominant, re-moving Greenock for 66 runs in 37 overs.

With plenty of daylight remain-ing, Willaston easily chased down the target in a dozen overs to de-clare at 2/85, with Dylan McIver sitting on 37 not-out, to take an eight-wicket first innings win and set up a potential outright result on day two.

Freeling’s Austin Poulton scored more than half of his side’s 111 to-tal away at Hamley Bridge, eventu-ally getting caught on 61 from 75 deliveries.

Poulton was Freeling’s only play-er to score more than eight runs as Angus Hudson dominated with the ball, taking 5/22 with five maidens from his 13 overs.

Hamley Bridge is firmly in the

driver’s seat after reaching 0/35 in the 16 overs before stumps.

In A3, Kapunda’s Mark Johnson led the way with 70 runs from 88 deliveries as his side posted a total of 7/242 against Light Pass.

With the ball, Lyndoch’s Ryan Muirhead was game-breaking, tak-ing 5/8 from just seven overs as his Dockers fought to defend a meagre score of 112. Long Plains will pick up on day two at 5/23.

In A4, Willaston’s Zac East be-came the talk of the town for Sun-day’s footballers versus cricketers event at the club after notching 111 from 83 deliveries, sending four balls over the rope for six.

Defending a 40-over score of 232, East then took 4/11 with three maidens from his eight overs to help hold Mallala to 9/178, winning by 54 runs.

Trinity holds serve on day one at Goodwood

TRINITY Old Scholars was able to hold Goodwood to a competitive score of 217 on day one of their two-day Adelaide Turf Cricket Association A1 showdown at Goodwood Oval.

Four TOSers ended up taking multiple wickets, led by Thomas Clements (3/42 from 10 overs) and Matthew Claughton (3/65 from 19 overs), as Trinity respond-ed strongly to slow Goodwood down af-ter the hosts started 3/144.

In B1, Trinity Old Scholars posted a respectable 161 after winning the toss and choosing to bat at home against Brighton.

Clayton Cameron top-scored for the TOSers with 43 from 89 deliveries, while Daniel De Ruvo (27 from 77) and

Grady Hudd (21 from 36) were a handy opening combination.

Trinity was able to snag two wickets before stumps to grab the ascendan-cy, with Liam Beazleigh (1/5 with four maidens from seven overs) and Todd Watt (1/4 from three overs) doing the damage.

In LO 4, Trinity went down by three wickets against Hope Valley after get-ting sent in to bat first, scoring 5/167 in 40 overs.

Tarryn Matthews starred for the TOS-ers, scoring 64 not-out from 68 deliver-ies, while Jacob Snook (36 from 65) and Matt Knight (26 from 50) were solid in support.

With the ball, Trinity just couldn’t find a way to remove Hope Valley opener Brett Madigan as he raced to 81 before finally falling, but the damage had been done.

Matt Knox (2/26 from nine overs) and Matt Knight (2/40 from six overs) were Trinity’s only multiple wicket takers.

LACHLAN Woods stole the show on Friday night when he opened and carried his bat on the way to scoring 103 not-out from 120 deliveries in Kapunda/Eu-dunda/GV’s home under-17s con-test against Tanunda.

Woods scored well over half of his side’s 7/173 40-over total, with Douglas Jenner (21) his closest teammate.

Samuel Roestenburg was the only Tanunda bowler to take multiple wickets, finishing with figures of 2/19 with two maidens from seven overs.

South Gawler’s bowlers have a big job on front of them this Satur-day after being tasked to defend a total of 73, with Zac Piddington (24 from 87 deliveries) and Cameron Kerr (12 from 28) the only Lions to reach double figures.

Nuriootpa/Light Pass’ Malakye Kohlhagen showed why he also

plays in the A1s, taking 3/4 with four maidens from his six overs.

Greenock will return to Sandy Creek this Saturday to defend 9/130 after Hayden Schiller (28 from 32 deliveries), Ryan Paley (25 from 57) and Benjamin Teusner (23 from 52) led the way for the Schlungers.

Ryan Sibbick was the Cockatoos’ best bowler on the day, taking 3/5 from his two overs, while Harrison Pringle was also incredibly effi-cient, finishing with 2/11 with three maidens from his eight overs.

In under-15s, Sandy Creek’s Har-ry Rosenberg notched an impres-sive 60 not-out as he and opening partner Beau Graham (34 from 33 deliveries) combined for 94 of the Cockatoos’ 119 runs.

The best junior bowling figures from the weekend belong to Wil-laston’s James Power, who took 4/1 with one maiden from just 2.4 overs.

With seven overs to face be-fore stumps, Willaston’s top-or-

der crumbled, falling to 3/8 before time was called as Jed Laycock (2/2 with three maidens from four overs) made life miserable.

Kapunda’s Jack Ryan scored a stylish 66 from 55 deliveries as his side posted a total of 156 against Tanunda.

Elijah Murch (26 from 50 deliv-ers) and Thomas Johnson (25 from 38) were both handy for Kapunda, while with the ball Tanunda’s Noah Schulz led the way, taking 3/22.

Mallala had five players make their way into double figures af-ter winning the toss and opting to

bat against Nuriootpa/Eudunda, but none scored more than Corbin Branson’s 17 as the Magpies’ 40 overs ended on 7/95.

Ethan John was only Nuriootpa/Eudunda player to take more than one wicket, finishing with 2/8 from six efficient overs.

WILLASTON Cricket Club raised more than $500 for the McGrath Foundation on Sunday with its third annual cricket players versus football players T20 match.

Willaston Cricket Club president Jarrod Hicks said the day was a success, with more than 250 people making their way to the ground, and he put up a nice score himself to mark the occasion.

“It was an excellent day – we started at about 9.30am and we counted 287 people through the gate, which was great,” he said.

“We raised $510 for the McGrath Foun-dation ‘Pink Stumps Day’, which is a great cause and one that is very close to a lot of people within our club.

“Our first game was the B-grade cricket team versus the B-grade football team – the footy club got on top early and had the cricket players four-down for 30 runs, but the cricket-ers rallied and ended up posting 190.

“There was a 100 hit by myself in that game, and then the footy boys came back out and made 126 headlined by Ash Fry belting balls over the boundary.”

The next match on the card was the Wil-laston women footballers against the junior cricketers, and despite strong performances

from Lauren Smith and Caitlin Wendland, the cricketers snatched the victory in the very last over.

The headline act was a runs-fest, with both sides score well into the 200s as former Aus-tralian representative Mark Cosgrove and lo-cal media personality Matt Knight suited up for some action.

Hicks said more than 50 sixes were hit on the day, and while all eyes were on the play-ing surface, he acknowledged the stars of the show were working behind the scenes.

“Obviously being the president, you under-stand what a big effort it is from the volun-teers at the club to run a day like this smooth-ly,” he said.

“There were people like Malcolm Chomik and Christina Bosco who spent all day in the canteen, and Jeff Rendell, who lost his wife earlier this year to cancer, was cooking the barbecue all day.

“A big ‘thank-you’ obviously has to go to the players for coming out, but the volunteers are just as important and they make you really thankful for the kind of community we have down at Willaston.”

Hicks also said it would be “one of the last big hurrahs” for the current concrete pitch before the process of installing a turf wicket began in a couple of weeks.

A STRONG middle-order batting perfor-mance carried South Gawler to a respect-able total of 191 on day one of its two-day Barossa & Light Cricket Association A1 contest against Gilbert Valley in the Lions’ second annual indigenous round.

It was a slow start for the Lions after winning the toss and opting to bat, losing James Korb-er (two runs from 21 deliveries) and Nicholas Gil (zero runs from three deliveries) to be sit-ting at 2/6 soon after play began. South finally found its footing after falling to 4/30 as Shane O’Donoghue (35 from 67 deliveries) and Ty-son Golder (42 from 86 deliveries) mounted a 73-run partnership, with David Golder coming in next to top-score with 48 from 71.

Kobe Barker chipped in with 20 more runs after coming in at number-eight, before Gil-bert Valley’s Andrew Bruce cleaned up the tail on his way to figures of 5/59 from his 22 overs.

Gilbert Valley will resume play this Satur-day at 0/12 after Caleb Schwartz and Ashley McInerney navigated the last eight overs of play safely.

Doecke carries AngastonSaturday’s top A1 batting performance

came in Angaston, where Luke Doecke opened for the home side after winning the toss, and stuck around for over four hours on his way to a score of 116 from 175 deliveries against Sandy Creek.

Doecke was supported well by Greg Bain (49 from 53 deliveries) at number-three, with the two setting a platform of 1/110 for the Blues to launch from.

Four more Angaston players would go on to score between 15 and 25 runs as the hosts posted an impressive total of 272.

With the ball, the Sandy Creek duo of Rhys Handtke (4/66 from 20 overs) and Ashley Coleman (4/67 from 19 overs) did most of the heavy lifting, with the Cockatoos to pick up on day two at 0/10 after getting through five overs before stumps unscathed.

Docker bowlers break through

Lyndoch has all but secured a first innings win against Mallala after an inspired 20 overs of bowling before stumps.

Winning the toss and batting first at home, the Dockers needed a big performance from Trent Burge (81 not-out from 122 deliveries) to post a competitive total of 164, but after getting bowled out in 50 overs, the Lyndoch attack had 20 overs to strike before the end of play.

Mallala openers Matthew Birchmore and Cameron Curnow combined for 36 runs, but when both were dismissed by Tim Gogoll, things spiralled quickly.

The next six batsmen to the crease fell for a combined 10 runs, as Mallala finally reached the end of play at 8/51.

Gogoll took 4/26 from his nine overs, while George Clarridge took 3/20 with four maid-ens from his nine overs.

Jungfer stars for TigersNuriootpa’s Travis Jungfer starred in the

first innings of his game against Tanunda, scoring 74 not-out to guide it to a total of 178.

Henry Slattery and Beau Ryan were both handy for the Tigers, scoring 29 runs each, while Christian Gattermayr (4/34 from 14 overs) and Mitchel Boschen (3/16 from 10 overs) led the Tanunda bowling attack.

After Tom Giles took a late wicket before stumps, Tanunda will start day two at 1/16.

Schlunger four deliverIn Light Pass, the Greenock quartet of Kyle

Noack (77 from 185 deliveries), Ben Thiel (50 from 67 deliveries), Will Schluter-Prouse (32 from 48) and Ben Verne (32 from 39) scored nearly all of its 219 total.

Alex Crossley was impressive for Lighties with the ball, taking 5/69 in his 17.5 overs, with his side due to pick up on day two from 0/13.

SOUTH Gawler Cricket Club hosted its second annual Indig-enous Round when its A1 side welcomed Gilbert Valley Crick-et Club on Saturday.

Before the bat-flip to deter-mine who would be batting or bowling for the day, respected member of the Aboriginal com-munity Robert Taylor performed a Welcome To Country, and con-ducted a smoking ceremony for

both sides and spectators. The idea came up when Michael Coo-per – an Indigenous player for South Gawler – was asked if he would like to take up the newly formed role of Aboriginal Liaison Officer.

Cooper said the club is making a commitment to its Aboriginal players, and he is proud of the steps taken forward this year in the second edition of the new tra-dition.

“As a club, we have a few Ab-original players coming through,

and we identified that we could be putting some supports in place to provide some guidance for them from Aboriginal people,” he said.

“The president and vice-presi-dent sat down last year and pulled me aside and asked if I would be interested in starting in the new Aboriginal liaison officer role, so it was an opportunity to work through what an Indigenous Round could look like and what we could get out of it.

“We really wanted to make an impact this year with a Welcome

To Country rather than an ac-knowledgment of country, and we wanted to get the stumps painted rather than a sticker.

“We want to create a safe envi-ronment for Aboriginal people to come through and play cricket at our club, and I’m proud that South Gawler has taken this step towards actual reconciliation.”

The artwork was donated by Jess Turner – a close relative of Cooper – and she said she want-ed to illustrate the link between South Gawler Cricket Club and

the Aboriginal community. “I’ve been doing indigenous art since around year 12 as a way to relax from school, but originally be-ing from Port Augusta it was my background up there that got me involved in extending my art out a bit further,” she said.

“I wanted this to represent a bit of Michael Cooper as a person, as well as the club, so we’ve obvi-ously got the blue and white rep-resenting the club, and the bails on top are in Aboriginal flag colours to kind of tie the two together.”

B&LCA SCOREBOARD

THE SANFL has announced that the 2023 SA Country Football Championships will be hosted in the Barossa Valley after The Barossa Council was the successful bidder.

The news came as part of the announce-ment that Whyalla would host the event for the first time in 2022.

SANFL general manager of football Matt Duldig said the championships were a signif-icant event for community football, providing SA’s best crop of male and female country footballers with the prestige of representing their region.

He said the event would be a boon for the hosting regions, providing significant eco-nomic and social benefits for clubs and the

broader community, with the 2021 event in Victor Harbor generating an approximate $1.25 million for the local area.

Barossa Mayor Bim Lange welcomed the announcement, saying events like these re-confirm the Barossa as a premier sports tour-ism events destination.

“We’re excited to be partnering with the SANFL to deliver the 2023 event and will be

working collaboratively to identify potential event locations, taking advantage of the sig-nificant investment we’ve made in local facil-ities and venues as part of The Big Project,” he said.

“It’s a great opportunity to capitalise on the tourism benefits of events, and we look for-ward to delivering a carnival of the highest calibre.”
