By Charlene Macaulay A Western Metropolitan MP has taken Local Government Minister Natalie Hutchins to task for not acting on rumours of dummy candidates and bribery throughout the 2016 Wyndham council election campaign. Speaking in Parliament last week, upper house MP Bernie Finn also called on Ms Hutchins to suspend all 11 Wyndham councillors and appoint administrators while a Local Government Inspectorate investigation into the election takes place. “The minister may well recall that last year I did warn her that if she did not step in prior to the council elections in Wyndham, there would be trouble ahead,” Mr Finn said. “At the moment all candidates, including all the councillors elected in October last year, are under a cloud. “I am asking her to remove the councillors in the interests of giving the council some certainty, and I am asking her to remove the councillors in the hope that the residents can be sure that their council is on the up and up. “The council election in October last year lacked integrity – the investigation that is currently being undertaken by the inspectorate shows that it lacked integrity – and in my view the residents deserve better.” Star Weekly asked Ms Hutchins’s office last week if the minister had powers to intervene during the Wyndham council election campaign, and if she would

consider appointing administrators, but these questions went unanswered. Mr Finn’s comments come after the Local Government Investigations and Compliance Inspectorate announced it was investigating allegations of bribery, unlawful nomination and deceptive conduct among several candidates during last year’s Wyndham council election campaign. The investigation follows a joint expose by Star Weekly and The Sunday Age in January that revealed councillor Intaj Khan was under investigation over his council election campaign, where he was re-elected to Wyndham council on the preferences of a team of dummy running mates, some enrolled – but not resident – at properties owned by him. Chief municipal inspector David Wolf said based on information already received, and anomalies identified during the investigation to date, it was necessary to speak with all 95 candidates who nominated. Star Weekly understands the Inspectorate has already spoken to 20 parties – including eight candidates – as part of the investigation. The remaining candidates have been called in to attend compulsory interviews, which will be held in Hoppers Crossing between June 7-16, to confirm their candidate eligibility and identify any unlawful activities. Mr Wolf said the department had already been “overwhelmed by the response from candidates who are very keen to tell us what occurred during the election”.

New services on the right track By Charlene Macaulay Wyndham Vale and Tarneit train stations are set to get 44 extra services – but Regional Rail Link commuters will have to wait until the end of August for the changes to take effect. The state government last week announced that it would add more than 140 new V/Line services across the state from August 27, including the new Wyndham services. Thirty of the new Wyndham services will run on the weekend –14 on Saturdays and 16 on Sundays – meaning commuters will only have to wait 40 minutes between trains.

Currently, weekend train services are spaced an hour apart. There will also be 10 new services for weekday nights and a late night service will now run each weeknight. Meanwhile, five existing train services that currently start in Warrnambool will start at Wyndham Vale under the changes. Werribee MP Tim Pallas said the extra services catered for the growing commuter demand in the area. “These new services will make a real difference – reducing waiting and crowding for local passengers, particularly on weekends,” Mr Pallas said.

‘‘

The services will better connect local passengers to - Telmo Languiller work

’’

Tarneit MP Telmo Languiller added: “The new services will better connect local passengers to work, education and each other – and get them home safer and sooner at the end of the day.” The timetable changes come six months after the state government added 23 new train services along the Wyndham part of

the Regional Rail Link, including 19 services along the Geelong line that stop at Wyndham Vale and Tarneit train stations; two morning peak services that stop at Tarneit; a morning peak train from Wyndham Vale to Melbourne, and two Sunday services to and from Waurn Ponds. V/Line figures released in 2016 revealed that Tarneit train station was the second-busiest on the RRL network – behind only Southern Cross – with 2300 passengers boarding on an average week day. An average of 1300 passengers board at Wyndham Vale on week days.

It is believed one of the offenders was armed with a gun, and the others armed with baseball bats or similar weapons. Detective Sergeant Eyries said the victims were assisting police with inquiries, but could not confirm if the parties were known to each other. “What I can say at this point of experience, these are generally not of a random nature,” he said.

A 34-year-old man and 23-year-old woman were also taken to The Alfred with assault-related injuries; all are in a stable condition. The armed crime squad was yesterday investigating the circumstances surrounding the incident, and spent the morning studying CCTV footage from security cameras at a neighbouring property. Detective Sergeant Andrew Eyries said police were looking for between two to four offenders, all of whom had their faces covered throughout the attack.

One man has been shot and three others injured during an early morning shooting and assault by a gang of masked intruders in Tarneit. Police were called to a Conway Street property about 4.15am on Tuesday after residents reported sounds of a disturbance and a gunshot. Paramedics treated a 31-year-old man with what is believed to be an upper body gunshot wound at the scene. He was transported to the Royal Melbourne Hospital and reportedly in a serious but stable condition and may require surgery. A 32-year-old woman was also treated for upper

Wyndham council has warned pet owners to ensure their dogs are vaccinated after a case of parvovirus was detected in the area. Officers from the council’s animal management team recently found an adult dog showing symptoms of parvovirus in Werribee. Canine parvovirus usually attacks a dog’s gastrointestinal tract and can result in symptoms including abdominal pain, vomiting and diarrhoea. It can be spread when a dog comes into contact with contaminated faeces or soil. Vets recommend puppies be vaccinated against the virus at six to eight weeks old, followed by a second vaccination at 12-14 weeks and an annual booster shot. The council’s city operations director Stephen Thorpe said the dog, found in Werribee, was taken to the Wyndham City Pound and had since tested positive to parvovirus. Mr Thorpe said there was no need for other dog owners to panic. “Several dogs have been tested, but this is the only case of parvovirus that has been detected in Wyndham,” Mr Thorpe said. “The affected dog received immediate medical treatment and is now making a steady recovery.” He said that the Wyndham City Pound had “very stringent hygiene practices”. “Every time an animal leaves the facility each cage is sanitised,” Mr Thorpe said. “Every responsible pet owner should vaccinate their pets as it helps to safeguard [their pets] against a range of diseases and viruses.”

Speed cameras dish out fines Police have urged drivers to slow down as new statistics reveal fixed speed cameras in Wyndham continue to catch thousands of drivers every month. Figures released last week on the state government’s Cameras Save Lives website showed several cameras in the west were among the top-20 highest earning in Victoria between October and December. Eight cameras covering the Princes Freeway – located on the Geelong and Melbourne-bound sides of the Forsyth Road bridge – issued a total of more than 5600 fines. The combined revenue from the cameras, which are on the border of Hoppers Crossing and Point Cook, was more than $1.26 million. Between July and September 2016, the cameras earned $2.6 million. Also on Victoria’s latest list of high-earning fixed speed cameras was another on the Western Ring Road. The camera, which covers the third north-bound lane of Boundary Road in Laverton North, issued 2725 infringements valued at $625,100. Within the previous three months, the camera issued penalties totalling $509,052. Near Wyndham, in Altona North, four westbound cameras on the West Gate Freeway – east of Millers Road – issued more than 3050 infringements between October and December. The four cameras earned $774,771 within the three months. Between July and September, the cameras earned $683,798.

4 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ MAY 17, 2017

Fixed speed cameras in Footscray and Brooklyn were also listed among the top-20 highest earning in the state, between October and December. Wyndham police Inspector Marty Allison said speed cameras played a “critical part in road safety and changing driver behaviour”. He said motorists had already died on Wyndham’s roads this year – including a six vehicle accident on the Western Ring Road, near Forsyth Road, in March.

‘‘

I think everyone has a responsibility to slow down

’’

- Marty Allison

“I think everyone has a responsibility to just slow down and be more courteous on the roads … we will see a reduction in our road trauma if everyone slows down,” Inspector Allison said. “Even on a 10-kilometre journey, you would save only 30 seconds if you increased your speed from an average of 100km/h to 110km/h.” A Department of Justice and Regulation spokeswoman said that speed contributed to about 30 per cent of deaths on Victoria’s roads each year. “To be honest, we’d be happy if no one received a fine, because it would mean that people are sticking to the speed limit and obeying the road rules,” the spokeswoman said.

Taking it up a gear Truganina’s Cameron Gatt is hoping to make it third time lucky when he takes on the BMX world championships in the US this year. The eight-year-old will battle it out against the world’s best in South Carolina this July after winning his first national championship in Brisbane recently. Mum Michelle said Cameron gave his all at the competition. “It was really full-on, they just pumped [the competitors] through one race after another, he didn’t have time to sit down between motos. “His legs were like jelly by the end. When he crossed that finish line, he couldn’t stand up, he worked that hard.” While Cameron was happy to take out his

first national championship, he has his sights set on bigger things. “It’s my dream to get W1 – world number one,” he said. “This was a step to getting there.” Cameron, who placed third at his first world championships in 2015, is particularly keen to right the wrongs of last year’s world championships, where he broke his collarbone during his warm-up. The injury put him out of action for four months. Cameron competes with Geelong Thunder BMX club and trains up to five times a week under the guidance of father and son team Fraser and Brandon Te Hiko. Charlene Macaulay

All things point to online growth Point Cook residents are logging on and topping the online shopping charts. Last week, Australia Post released a report which revealed Point Cook was Australia’s number one online buying location in 2016, based on the amount of internet shopping parcels sent to households in the suburb. There was a 13 per cent growth in the number of parcels sent to Point Cook across the 12 month period, compared to the national average growth of 11.5 per cent. In addition, Hoppers Crossing placed sixth on the list of Australia’s online shopping hubs, behind Cranbourne in fifth place. The Australia Post report revealed that foreign sales accounted for just over 40 per cent of all online purchases in Australia last year, compared to 25 per cent five years ago. Australia Post’s ecommerce general manager Ben Franzi said it was clear the nation’s love affair with online shopping “continues to bloom�. Between January and June last year, Point Cook ranked second nationally for online purchases in the categories of health and beauty, department and variety stores and media, such as music and books. As well, Point Cook topped the nation for internet sales of homewares and appliances. Point Cook came fourth nationally, and first in Victoria, for buying fashion online.

Kevin Hillier says it’s crunch time for the council system

T

he investigation into the last Wyndham council election may hold the key to the future of local government beyond the borders of Wyndham. Surely the state government is viewing this as a test case as to the wisdom of continuing to have elected councillors, as opposed to appointed commissioners. If the system is corrupt, there is little alternative. I wrote last week that this investigation needed to be done promptly to remove the cloud hanging over the current council and councillors. Hopefully, those in charge will start the process with the 11 elected councillors, and clear them or not, so they can get on with the business of running the city. Bureaucrats are notorious for not getting things done quickly. But while every ‘i’ needs to be dotted and every ‘t’ crossed, there is a need for expediency here. If a councillor is found guilty of impropriety, boot them out and replace them according to

the rules of the voting system. Get on with it. Ratepayers deserve a resolution that is fair, prompt and just. The 95 being investigated also deserve a quick outcome. I have no doubt this investigation is going to find areas that need further investigation and legal clarification. I hope that does not get in the way of the business of the City of Wyndham. If it does, it will be the state government’s call to take the appropriate action. If that means sacking the council, then so be it. If those 11 individuals are doing it for the right reasons, they will see the big picture and accept what is best for the city. Such a sacking will be unfortunate for those who have abided by the rules, but that may be the best outcome for the city in the short term. Unfortunately, it is too late for an amnesty to be put in place and I am not sure one was ever offered. That’s a pity, as it might have saved a lot of time and money and not sullied the reputations of some decent and honest people. ■

Healthy attitude helps By Charlene Macaulay A team of Werribee Mercy Hospital employees is doing their bit to help fit out the hospital’s planned critical care unit. Vicki Catalfamo and her colleagues have spent the past few months hosting Bunnings barbecues, cake stalls and Easter raffles, raising more than $13,000 in the process. Next up, the team will be hosting an already sold-out fashion show at Hotel 520, with a

parade of outfits from Werribee’s Tonia T Boutique, a live auction and DJ. Ms Catalfamo hopes the fundraiser will add another $5000 to their efforts. “It’s our heart and soul here at Werribee Mercy – it’s not just a job,” she said. The CCU is part of an $85 million state government-funded hospital upgrade that will include eight critical care beds, 56 inpatient beds and six operating theatres over four storeys at the northern end of the hospital, above the

Catherine McAuley Centre. The hospital will be six storeys once works are complete. Earlier this year, the Werribee Hospital Foundation and the Mercy Health Foundation created an appeals committee to raise $2 million over the next 18 months to fit-out the new critical care unit. Via its partnership with Mercy Health, Star Weekly will provide regular appeal updates. Details: aevans@mercy.com.au

Young people suffering from substance abuse, depression, obsessive compulsive disorder and other mental illnesses can now receive in-patient care at Hoppers Crossing. The Wyndham Clinic Private Hospital (WCPH) has expanded its mental health unit to include a 10-bed in-patient unit and day programs for young people aged 15 years and above. Previously the clinic only provided in-patient mental health care to adults. WCPH is one of only two Melbourne facilities to offer this type of treatment and has already treated patients from as far away as Alice Springs and Tasmania. Youth program clinical director Alberto Veloso said WCPH’s approach focused on early intervention. “Most in-patient services for young people are crisis-driven,” Dr Veloso said. “Our mental health programs are very much focused on early intervention to prevent crisis and to give young people an opportunity to learn the essential skills they’ll need to cope with their disorder and regulate their emotions.” Dr Veloso said the clinic worked closely with patient families and referring health professionals to develop therapy and management plans. “Biological, psychological, social and cultural factors are also taken into account when we formulate the management plans for young people,” he said.

Porn habit lands burglar in jail By Alesha Capone An ice addict who used a stolen credit card to access internet pornography unwittingly helped police to identify him as a burglar. The man, 21, faced the County Court earlier this month. He pleaded guilty to crimes including criminal damage, obtaining property by deception, theft, aggravated burglary, making a threat to kill, handling stolen goods and

possessing a drug of dependence. The court heard he committed the offences last year, mostly within Wyndham. Judge Liz Gaynor described a burglary that the man committed at a Hoppers Crossing home in September, as the “most serious” of the man’s offences in 2016. She said he turned off the power at the house before forcing his way inside, while armed with a wooden baton. When the owner of the house came to

investigate the noise, the man demanded his car keys and other property. He told the owner he would kill him if he called police. The man later used a credit card stolen from the victim to pay for internet pornography. Judge Gaynor said police obtained an email address from these transactions which helped them discover the man’s identity. He was also charged with committing other burglaries in Hoppers Crossing and Tarneit. In a separate incident, in 2015, he broke into

a unit and used a broken glass bottle to stab the male occupant four times in the stomach. The man admitted to using “a gram or two” of ice every day. Judge Gaynor sentenced him to a total sentence of four and a half years in jail. He has already served 235 days of this term in pre-sentence detention. The man will have to serve a minimum of two years and three months before becoming eligible for parole.

Zebra foal steps out

She is a star with plenty of stripes and a sweet face. Meet Ziwa, the first zebra foal born at the Werribee Open Range Zoo in the past five years. Ziwa was born to mother Zaide on April 28. Ziwa, Zaide and the rest of their zebra herd met the media during a feeding session last week. Keepers at the zoo say they are “delighted” with Ziwa’s progress and health. Keeper Lance Weldhagen said the foal had been doing well under the watchful eye of her mum. “This is Zaide’s first foal and she has been the perfect mother,” he said. “Zebras are very protective of their young … she is keeping a close eye on Ziwa and making sure she does not stray too far from the herd.” Ziwa was named after a wildlife conservancy in Uganda. Werribee Open Range Zoo visitors can see Ziwa every day by going on safari. Details: zoo.org.au/Werribee Alesha Capone

Orchestra pit going up

An artist impression of the new Target headquarters in Williams Landing. (Supplied)

Wyndham Cultural Centre in Werribee will get a new orchestra pit “lift” valued at $295,000. Wyndham council will provide the funding for the lift and its installation in the coming year. Wyndham chief executive Kelly Grigsby said the lift would allow the orchestra pit to be raised and lowered, so large instruments could be safely transported into the theatre. “It will also allow the configuration of the entire theatre to be more flexible, meaning more seating can be made available,” she said. The council will spend an additional $185,000 to upgrade the cultural centre and $30,000 on an external storage room. The council is planning to upgrade service areas within the cultural centre, including the green rooms, toilet facilities, foyer and café. An expansion of the Wyndham Art Gallery has also been proposed to allow the gallery to host up to 20 exhibitions a year. A council report stated that expanding the gallery would result in “greater capacity to draw the interest of top-tier artists to exhibit”. At a Wyndham council meeting earlier this month, Cr Heather Marcus welcomed the funding news. “Encouraging creativity is so important,” she said.

Perfect landing on Target “Target’s move to Williams Landing signifies the increasing breadth and depth of economic activity occurring in Melbourne’s western growth corridor and reinforces Williams Landing’s appeal as an attractive and growing commercial centre,” Mr Blackburne said. “We are seeing a number of businesses recognise the benefits of this new town centre.” An analysis by economists MacroPlan Dimasi shows that the suburb has the potential to accommodate more than 13,000 jobs by 2031.

The location for the new Target national headquarters has finally been revealed. Developer Cedar Woods last week announced Target had signed a 10-year lease for a 12,600 square metre office over eight levels on the corner of Altair and Kendall streets in Williams Landing, opposite the Williams Landing train station. Building will start on the $37 million development, which will house 850 employees,

next month. The new headquarters are expected to be operational by Christmas next year. In January, Star Weekly reported that Target was relocating its national headquarters from its Geelong base after 92 years to come to Williams Landing. Target would not reveal the location of the new site at the time. Cedar Woods chief operating officer Nathan Blackburne said Target’s move to Williams Landing would likely encourage other big businesses to follow suit and relocate.

Budget cuts ‘fail’ Wyndham: MPs By Charlene Macaulay Federal changes to education funding and a one-year extension on kindergarten spend have been met with a frosty reception by Wyndham council and MPs. Lalor MP Joanne Ryan branded the federal budget, which was handed down last week, as full of “hot air”. She said school funding cuts and no irrigation funding for Werribee South market gardeners was a huge blow for the electorate. “There’s no good news for Wyndham,” she

said. “All we got was cuts, cuts and more cuts.” Werribee MP Tim Pallas said 14 schools in his electorate would be $8 million worse off collectively under the federal government’s new education funding model. Victorian department of education analysis shows Manor Lakes P-12 College faces a funding cut of up to $1.5 million under the new model, Warringa Park School up to $1.2 million, and Werribee Secondary College up to $1 million. “Families in Werribee deserve better than a government that hacks away,” Mr Pallas said.

Meanwhile, Wyndham councillor Josh Gilligan expressed his disappointment at the government’s decision to only extend kindergarten funding for another 12 months. Cr Gilligan called on the federal government – which funds five hours of kindergarten per week – to make an ongoing funding commitment, which would ensure all children had access to 15 hours of pre-school education in the year before beginning school. On the flip side, Wyndham mayor Henry Barlow applauded the government’s decision to

lift its indexation freeze on financial assistance grants from July. The federal government froze indexation on the grants – which are given to local councils to fund infrastructure and services such as roads, libraries and childcare – for three consecutive years, resulting in an estimated $3.8-$4 million shortfall for Wyndham council. Liberal Party senator Scott Ryan said Lalor residents would benefit from $1.8 million in road upgrade and maintenance funding, $30 million for planning for the Melbourne Airport Rail Link, and small business tax cuts.

As precious as a diamond Some things are just meant to be. Just ask Joan and Gordon Gulliver, who met after being set up on a blind date – that neither of them wanted to go on – and recently celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary. “I had just finished national service and I was at home, feeling pretty washed out and jaded when a friend of mine, who worked in the same organisation as Joan, told me I was going to a ball … he said, ‘we’ve got a little office girl here that thinks that you’re taking her, you’ve got to go’,” Mr Gulliver said. “We both ended up going, and we just seemed to click, and it went on from there.” Mrs Gulliver added: “My friend told me that Gordon had broken up with his girlfriend and was broken-hearted, and it wasn’t true! I had no intentions of going.” The couple dated for a year before getting married on April 27, 1957 at the Barkly Street Methodist Church in West Footscray.

Mr Gulliver, then 22, thought his 19-year-old bride had stood him up at the altar when Joan was 30 minutes late, but no – the blushing bride lost track of time taking photos at the house before the ceremony. The couple spent their married lives living all over the western suburbs – first in Yarraville, then Spotswood, before moving to Werribee in 2001 and, most recently, Tarneit. The Gullivers have four children, 11 grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. Today, the couple prefer to go on cruises, but still make time to watch their beloved Western Bulldogs in action. For their 60th wedding anniversary, Mr Gulliver surprised his wife with a diamond necklace.“I love her more now than I did before, a different kind of love,” Mr Gulliver said. Mrs Gulliver added: “It was meant to be.” Charlene Macaulay

By Alesha Capone Point Cook fireys have a new piece of training equipment, thanks to generous residents. The CFA unit has purchased a smoke machine to help simulate emergency situations for firefighters training in the use of breathing apparatus in smoke-filled buildings. The unit was able to purchase the smoke machine thanks to the efforts of residents who live in Santander Crescent, Point Cook. During last year’s annual Christmas lights display in the street, organised by resident Emma Lindell, the homeowners collected donations for the CFA. Unit secretary Graeme Prentice said it had been the third time the street’s residents had raised funds for the CFA. Mr Prentice said previous funds donated by the Santander Crescent residents had helped the unit to buy a portable radio. He said the radio was a valuable piece of equipment for the unit, just as the new smoke machine was proving to be. “The smoke from the machine is non-hazardous but the firefighters utilise the same equipment and techniques as they would in a real fire situation,” he said. “Not only can the brigade train in entering smoke-filled buildings, they can train in the use of their specialised equipment for clearing a building of smoke and check the set-up to ensure that it is working efficiently.”

Park becomes a play haven The fun factor has been boosted at a Hoppers Crossing park, thanks to new playground equipment. Wy nd ha m council has installed a slide, a timber swing set, a “row boat” seesaw, a timber climbing frame and monkey bars at Snowgum Court Park. Council family friendly city portfolio holder Mia Shaw (pictured with son Gus), said rubber surfacing had been used so children who fell would not hurt themselves. “Studies show that playgrounds with different features for little ones to play on – like this one at Hoppers Crossing – are important in the cognitive, physical, social and emotional development of children,” she said. Cr Shaw said that when the council conducted community consultations in 2015 to plan for the city’s long-term future, many residents had identified parks and open spaces as one of Wyndham’s most important features. “Community members talked about having these places to unwind after a long day and recalled many fond memories with family and friends,” Cr Shaw said.

When giving is truly receiving By Charlene Macaulay When Herbert Hahn suffered a back injury three years ago, he struggled to find work. Undeterred, the Werribee resident signed up to be a volunteer at Glendale Aged Care in Hoppers Crossing, where he visits dementia patients each fortnight. “It’s nice to give them some hope and a friend,� he said. Mr Hahn, a former pastry chef, said he would never forget the reaction when he made a black forest cake for a resident’s birthday.

“He had tears in his eyes because he was so happy about the cake – he really enjoyed it,� he said. “It’s nice to know I’m making an impact.� Fellow Glendale volunteer Graeme Morrison joined the team in 1993 when his father-in-law became a resident. Mr Morrison, also from Werribee, helps run the singing group. “It doesn’t take much encouragement to get people to sing,� he said. “I’ve met some wonderful, wonderful people here that I wouldn’t have met if I hadn’t volunteered.� Mr Morrison said his volunteer work had

been a lifesaver in more ways than one – in 2014, he suffered a heart attack after helping run Christmas Carols at the home, and was saved by the paramedics who were quickly called to the scene. Mr Hahn and Mr Morrison were among 45 Glendale volunteers honoured at a morning tea on Friday to celebrate National Volunteer Week. Glendale volunteers Herbert Hahn and Graeme Morrison.

Last week I used this column to acknowledge the wonderful work that volunteers do in Wyndham and how we all benefit from the generous commitment of thousands of locals. As a result of this column a current opportunity for mentoring young men in Wyndham has been brought to my attention. It is so worthy I thought I’d outline and promote it to you and your family and friends. What really got my attention is the fact this opportunity states that if you can be a friend you can be a mentor! Teenage boys (aged between 12 – 20 years old) are in need of a male mentor and are less likely to use drugs or alcohol, or find themselves in trouble with the police if they have a mentor. They will be more likely to go to school and develop good relationships with their family and friends. I had strong male role models growing up and I know how important this can be. By connecting a disadvantaged young teen to a positive role model (you!) the cycle of disadvantage can be broken.

Hoppers Crossing is set to get a brand new skate park. Construction of the skate space, which will be located behind the Youth Resource Centre along Derrimut Road, is expected to be completed within the 2017-18 financial year. Sports development portfolio holder Peter Maynard said the project would create a space for skateboarders, rollerbladers and scooter riders. “Just as our football and basketball courts allow residents to keep fit and improve their skills, this space will be a valuable asset to the community,” Cr Maynard said. The park, valued at $260,000, has been funded in the 2017-18 budget. For more information about the project, go to www.wyndham.vic.gov.au Charlene Macaulay

School’s in for outdoor fun All across Wyndham, kids have found plenty of ways to keep active and enjoy the autumn sun Bowled over by the green scene

Senen, Cooper and Ella have been on a roll at Werribee Bowls Club. The grade 5 pupils from Christ the Priest Catholic Primary School in Caroline Springs were among those who enjoyed taking part in the School Sport Victoria annual regional lawn bowls final. Werribee Bowls Club Summer Fun Bowls co-ordinator Rhonda Edwards said the club hoped to involve Wyndham schools in next year’s event. “We are looking to engage with local schools to have our students undertake some basic coaching,” she said. “It’s not all about winning – lawn bowls is a non-contact sport suitable for all ages, abilities and cultures. Involvement in sport is about exercise, being a team player, social skills, communication and making long term friends.” Details: werribeebowlsclub.com or 9741 3229

On the right paths

Students from a Point Cook school were cheered on by an Olympic champion last week. Stella Maris Catholic Primary School pupils took part in the CUA School Fun-Run, with Australian Olympic gold medal swimmer Mack Horton greeting them as they crossed the finishing line. The event was held to help Stella Maris pupils raise money to help develop the school’s ovals and outdoor area. “I’m excited to see the kids enjoying their sport and combining it with an opportunity to raise some much-needed funds for their school,” Horton said.

Truganina South Primary School pupils are stepping out – and pedalling to improve their health and safety on the roads. During the school’s Active Paths launch day, pupils walked and rode to school on footpaths with special stickers placed on them. The stickers urged the youngsters to, “Stop, look, listen, think” before crossing the road, or that they were a “Hop, skip and jump away” from the school. Some of the stickers, provided by the Bicycle Network’s Ride2School program, also showed the distances between the school and particular streets. The Active Paths event also included a breakfast, dancing and a photo booth for students and their families to enjoy.

MY WYNDHAM Kiran Aslam, a henna tattooing artist who lives in Tarneit, says she enjoys the creative expression her art form offers. The 27-year-old talks with Alesha Capone. How long have you been doing henna tattooing as a profession? For three to four years. Back in my country, Pakistan, I would do it for my friends and family – they really liked it. Then I moved here around two and a half years ago, and I did it for my neighbours and Pakistani friends. They told a lot of their friends and I had a lot of people come to me. Word of mouth spread and I made a Facebook page. More people saw it and they would contact me. Mostly I go to their places. For weddings, I’m with them all day and do henna tattoos for many of their guests. It takes four to five hours to do it for a bride. I also do it for pregnant women, on their baby bump – it’s like a baby blessing – or for a baby shower. Mothers really love it, and so do I. I also do hen’s parties and birthdays, children’s birthdays as well – they often like to get a small design, like a flower. How did you get started in the art form?

What do you enjoy most about henna tattooing? I like that if a design comes into my mind, I can draw it and be creative. I can be calm and forget what else is going on in my mind. I also like to see people’s reaction to my artwork. That’s

(Damjan Janevski)

I started it as a hobby, because I really liked it. It takes a lot of practice to get good. Through doing it for my friends and family, my speed at henna tattooing also became good.

what I look forward to – it really makes me feel good. Are there times of the year, which are important to different cultures or religions,

when you become really busy? Indians have Karva Chauth and Muslims have Eid, so I get really busy around then – there are many Hindus and Muslims in the area.

Do you mostly do henna tattoos for Wyndham people or is there demand across Melbourne? I find it’s from everywhere. I sometimes go to Frankston, to Dandenong and the city as well.

The three State Ministers involved in the Werribee West drainage scheme were entertained by the shire on Thursday at the civic centre. The shire decided to invite the three to thank them for the work they had done to evolve a scheme for the area.

Werribee MLA Ken Coghill has ordered his opposite member, Werribee Liberal spokesman Cr Peter Hudson, to resign as a councillor or party spokesman because Liberal Party policies are now “in direct conflict with the interests of Werribee”. Dr Coghill said Cr Hudson must decide which hat he wears when it comes to issues affecting Werribee.

Hoppers Crossing’s Senior Constable Timothy Lewczuk will be given a guard of honour and buried with full police honours at the Werribee Lawn Cemetery on Thursday. Hundreds of residents and police are expected to attend the funeral service at the Police Academy, Glen Waverley.

A bitter battle is looming between Wyndham Council and the Geelong Football Club over an application for 90 poker machines at the Cats’ proposed community and sporting club development in Point Cook. As revealed exclusively in the Banner in March, the Cats’ facility – its planned Melbourne base – features a function room, bistro with outdoor dining area, sports bar, cafe, lounge/bar and gaming room.

Weekend away? What a capital idea

(Pictures: Charlene Macaulay)

By Charlene Macaulay

LAKE BURLEY GRIFFIN

Imagine a place where there’s virtually no traffic, plenty of sightseeing to be had and great restaurants to boot. While it may not be an obvious travel destination, there’s more to Canberra than politicians and cold weather. In fact, there’s a lot to like about our nation’s capital. Only a quick one-hour flight, or easy seven-hour drive up the Hume Highway from Melbourne, Canberra is perfect for a relaxing few days away. While it’s somewhat small and quiet by this Melburnian’s standard, I’m quickly won over by all the greenery (or to be more precise, the yellow, red and burnt orange leaves) from the trees lining the streets, and the parks that seem to be, well, everywhere. There’s plenty of walking trails to be had, and many hotels encourage getting out and about by offering bikes for hire. If you’re a keen walker, head down to Lake Burley Griffin, where you’ll come across a variety of landmarks and memorials – such as the National Police Memorial and the International Flag Display. There’s also Mount Ainslie to the north, and Black Mountain to the west, both of which offer up great vantage points of the city, and a good view of the sunset. A quick tip: avoid paying the entrance fee at Black Mountain’s Telstra Tower, the views are just as good if you walk up the mountain yourself. A must-see in Canberra is the Australian War Memorial, where you can easily spend a full day exploring its various exhibitions that cover the many conflicts our armed services have been involved in across the world. Stick around for the Last Post ceremony, which is held each day at 4.45pm by the Pool of

PARLIAMENT HOUSE

Reflection. The event includes the story behind one of the 102,000 Australian service men and women whose names are on the Roll of Honour at the war memorial.

A big thank-you from Homestead Financial Group As Homestead Financial Group celebrates 20 years of operation in Melbourne’s western region, Managing Director Vernon Fettke is focusing on the appreciation and gratitude he and his team feel for being trusted to help clients throughout the Werribee, Melton and Sunbury regions. “My team and I are privileged to help people in every type of financial circumstance

Advertising feature

Homestead is where the heart is At a time when the financial planning sector continues to cop a caning from all sides – government, the public and investigative journalists – let’s not forget the good guys found in the profession.

and to see people’s lives literally change with the right help.

In a chat with Vern Fettke, Managing Director of Homestead Financial Group, Carole Levy discovers the ‘good guys’ do indeed walk among us……but you be the judge.

“We thank our clients, our communities and the many organisations we interact with

Vern, who has offices in Werribee, Melton and Sunbury, decided in 2014, with the full support of his team, to counteract “all tarred with the same brush” perceptions of financial planners among the public.

for the past two decades of success. And I hope we continue to provide meaningful employment for people who are as invested in ethical, expert and people-oriented business practices as we are.”

“That was the year the financial s*** first hit the fan,” he says. “It was depressing for us to hear and read reports of unethical behaviour and worse, so we decided to be proactive and uphold the reputation we’d gained during, at that time, our 17 years’ operation.” Vern and his team developed the “Financial Services Oath”. In November 2014, gathered in a public hall in the presence of more than 120 clients, family members, community leaders and government members, he and his crew took part in a solemn oath ceremony [pictured]. Present on the day, MP Joanne Ryan later described the oath as *“a statement of integrity—not a marketing ploy but a solemn oath, a statement of honest intention and service.” Vern would love to see the Financial Services Oath adopted as industry-wide practice and, through constructive ongoing talks with universities, hopes one day to see every graduate of financial planning courses take the oath as part of their graduation ceremony.

HOMESTEAD TALES Quite remarkable – and true - anecdotes emerge, when prompted, about Homestead’s business approach. Vern thinks it’s all down to “common sense” and adherence to his company’s adage: “If we can’t add value to your life, it’s under control. See us if and when you aren’t doing a good job”. In other words, they don’t drum up profitmotivated scenarios. Three true stories that Homestead staff shared perhaps best exemplify the company’s attitude of being a genuine help, in good times and bad, and meeting people’s needs in all kinds of financial circumstances. Take **Jack, for example. His life had hit a truly rough patch and he believed he’d wind up living out of a cardboard box under the local river’s bridge. When he contacted Homestead, he said he felt suicidal and could see no way out. Why did it occur to Jack to approach a financial planner at such a time? It seems an odd choice at first blush, but Jack had heard on the local grapevine that the Homestead team were good, clever people who might be able to help. And that’s what the team did; they got Jack’s life back on track through sound financial advice and expert, hands-on help with the processes. Vern still has Jack’s heartfelt letter of thanks. The second account involves **Mary who, at 85, lived in a retirement village, caring for her husband Joe who had Alzheimer’s disease. When Mary was diagnosed with a terminal condition, she called Vern who had helped her previously with more general financial issues. Mary died within seven days, but in that week Vern visited her every day, sometimes twice. He organised, with Mary’s grateful assent, for Joe to move full time into a high-care nursing home, completed legal paperwork, refined Mary’s will, organised Centrelink red tape and got all financial affairs sorted and watertight. Vern went on to represent Mary and Joe’s daughter at VCAT in organising guardianship of her dad, and provided guidance about the daughter’s new role as executor of the family estate. And how about the man with a big tribe of kids who lost his job through redundancy. **Darren was about to lose the family home, he had zero cash flow and had fallen sick to the point of being unable to work.

Vernon Fettke [on left] taking a financial oath with his team

Homestead’s solution? As a man with long-held community connections, Vern recalled that Darren had worked in the ‘90s at a company known for allocating shares to employees. The team dug around and discovered that Darren held shares valued about $60,000. Darren had forgotten their existence, but the crew’s persistence got his family back in positive financial territory. And the family shouted themselves to their first-ever holiday. **All names are changed to protect identity *Source: www.aph.gov.au/Parliamentary_Business/Hansard

Hoppers Crossing Secondary College’s theme for 2017 is “Dream big and be resilient in the face of adversity”. Principal Wayne Terrill explains how this student-sponsored theme applies in the education of about 1400 students. “Our college promotes resilience in all students and staff,” he says. “This year’s theme builds on a partnership formed last year with the Resilience Project team, whose members have been working with students on developing skills to foster a positive mindset.” The college encourages students to learn from and build upon their weaknesses. A feedback policy is in place across the entire college, which allows students from Year 7 – 9 to resubmit a learning task to improve their grade. Students are awarded the higher of two marks if an improvement test or task has been undertaken. Students have the opportunity to dream big about becoming tomorrow’s leaders with a Student Representative Council and an established High Resolves Program. They can also become involved with Youth Parliament and School for Student Leadership programs. Global leadership is also encouraged, with learning opportunities available in China, Italy and North America. These programs allow students to develop leadership skills on a global platform. Last year, the college recorded its most impressive VCE results in 32 years and a school-wide median study score of 29. The VCE program incorporates potential tertiary study at Melbourne, Monash and Deakin universities – more than 80 per cent of 2016 year 12 participants received their top tertiary preferences. The college has students who are performers on another stage, too. “Our students are active participants in the

Wakakirri Secondary Schools Challenge, a national dance competition whereby students choreograph routines, design costumes and assemble stage sets,” Mr Terrill says. The college was awarded Victorian Story of the Year for the past three years, receiving accolades for staging, performance and

choreography. Last year, it was H.O.P.E – Hold On, Pain Ends, a Snow White adaptation with the male lead working through mental health issues. To find out about enrolments at this college that dares to dream big, call enrolment co-ordinator Kim Firkin.

A dynamic Catholic learning community, Thomas Carr College strives for excellence and ensures opportunities to develop are a key focus. College learning and teaching director Stephan le Roux says the college is dedicated to equipping students with knowledge, skills and attributes that will enable them to take their place in a globalised world with confidence. “Our college is committed to providing an engaging and innovative learning environment and developing the capacity for independent thought and informed decision making,” Mr le Roux says.

Wyndham Central College’s mission is to prepare students for life after year 12. Assistant principal Concetta Faranda says the college aims to close the gap between school, university and work, supporting students to achieve success – both at school and in society. “Advancement Via Individual Determination (AVID) is a teaching system that’s been part of the US curriculum for 30 years,” she says. “The program is a university-readiness system, teaching students to think critically and develop their reading and writing skills. “AVID is a research-based instructional model for effective teaching which accelerates student learning. It’s designed to increase school-wide learning and performance. “Since introducing AVID at the college in 2013, we’ve seen exceptional success. There’s been an improvement in all areas of teaching and learning, and in VCE results. AVID’s success here has seen Wyndham Central become the first secondary college in Australia to be awarded AVID certification – achieving the status of a Highly Certified AVID School.” Ms Faranda says improving critical reading and thinking enables students to “break down” texts to deepen understanding. “At all year levels, AVID is aimed at explicitly teaching skills and strategies that will support and enhance student learning at secondary school, and can be used in post-secondary studies and beyond.” Underpinned by the WICOR (Writing, Inquiry, Collaboration, Organisation and Reading) teaching model, AVID is taught by AVID-trained teachers and undertaken by all year 7-12 students. Year 9-12 students, who are willing to work hard and show determination to succeed, are eligible for additional support through AVID Tutorology as an elective. “In the AVID elective, our partnership with Victoria University enables tertiary students to facilitate small group tutorials, supporting

our students to expand their knowledge and understanding of rigorous concepts and text.” Statistics show that students who undertake the AVID method for three or more years have tripled their success rate of entering

and completing a university program. “Resolving problems, thriving on discussion and helping passive learners become active and independent learners, with a set of skills to be lifelong learners, are all part of the program.”

AVID is a schoolwide program that uses research–based, best teaching and learning strategies to actively engage the student in their learning. While all students at Wyndham Central College are AVID students it is also offered as an elective from year 9. In all classes AVID’s focus is on WICOR: Writing, Inquiry, Collaboration, Organisation and Reading. Students: • Are assisted to be organised by using the AVID binder, planners and graphic organisers. • Reflect on their learning using learning logs. • Use the Cornell note taking system to help embed learning and achieve better results. • Engage in Socratic discussions and philosophical debates. • Problem solve in collaborative study groups and tutorials. • Are explicitly instructed in critical reading strategies to understand complex text. • Use vocabulary building strategies to build academic language. AVID students are given the strategies to become critical thinkers and to take responsibility for their learning.

MacKillop College’s theme for this year is ‘Peace for our common home’ aligned with a quote from Mary MacKillop, “Remember, we are but travelers here” circa 1866. Principal, Rory Kennedy, says the College is unashamedly Catholic and has grown out of the charism of Saint Mary of the Cross MacKillop. “As a community we strive to encourage all individuals to reach their full potential as lifelong learners by providing and innovative, challenging and collaborative learning and teaching environment,” he says. “The College vision statement ‘Celebrating all life, Challenging all people, Dreaming the new day’ captures the spirit of the College. We are a community where people are important and valued. A place where all can dare to be the best they can be. A community firmly in the here and now yet with an eye to the opportunities and challenges that the future might bring us.” The College was established in 1970 with an initial enrolment of 102 girls, named after Saint Mary of the Cross MacKillop, co-founder of the congregation of the Sisters of St. Joseph of the Sacred Heart. Since then, the College has educated a large portion of the Catholic Community and is proud of its current status. Mr Kennedy says the College is committed to each student’s intellectual, emotional, spiritual, physical and psychological growth by fostering leadership and empowering them as faith-filled, discerning citizens of its school community. “Our College has outstanding facilities that are complimented by beautifully maintained gardens, sporting fields and recreational areas. Our emphasis on contemporary learning strategies is supported by up-to-date and extensive digital infrastructure and a dedicated ICCT centre.” MacKillop boasts innovative and technologically rich state-of-the-art learning areas including a unique Science wing, a 400 seat Auditorium, an outstanding Sports Centre with gymnasium and an exceptional Creative

Arts Centre. MacKillop College offers a broad and comprehensive curriculum, including a Gifted and Talented program and support to students who experience learning difficulties. Successful policies have been established that supports student wellbeing. The pathways available are diverse with MacKillop offering VCE, VCAL and VET subjects as well as the SEDA Sport Development Partnership Program. The College introduced the Trade Training Development Program Certificate II in Engineering Studies Mechanical and Fabrication Streams as another opportunity for senior students. From Years 7–10 a strong core and elective program establishes good learning and study practices. Stimulated by innovative, challenging and collaborative lessons, students from Year 7–10 study subjects across all learning areas including, Religious Education, Creative and Performing Arts, Design and Technology, English, Health and Physical Education, Humanities, Digital Technologies, Languages, Mathematics and Science. “MacKillop promotes excellence in the programs offered which include our unique and dedicated Year 9 Campus providing experiences that have been designed to foster close links with the local community and to raise awareness of local, national and international citizenship and responsibility,” Mr Kennedy says. “With a comprehensive and well-balanced curriculum, programs have been designed to prepare students with the tools and skills needed to effectively problem solve, research and channel inner creation. “Our curriculum incorporates intensive learning within a positive, dynamic and adaptive learning and teaching environment. This promotes a culture of enquiry and the creative exploration of ideas.” In addition to the new Chapel, the College recently opened a new building, named after

Sr. La Merci, which boasts an innovative and contemporary learning environment with multiple learning spaces. These digitally rich General Purpose Learning Areas (GPLAs) will support students with appropriate learning to assist them in becoming ICT proficient and productive community members in this 21st Century. “MacKillop endeavors to provide an outstanding education that integrates faith, life and culture.

Building sites and workmen’s sheds have become commonplace at Good News Lutheran College as the Tarneit educational facility goes from strength to strength. Beginning 20 years ago with just 26 students, the co-educational college is developing rapidly and these days caters for 884 pupils and more than 100 staff. With the construction of an 11-classroom, double-storey specialist middle school building scheduled to be finished within months, it’s clear the growth of the college will continue for some time yet. Community Development Coordinator, Wes Cusworth says specialist education buildings provide the platform for diverse and high-quality tuition, although the college places equal importance on the development of the whole individual, with character development among the most valued outcomes. “The college pastoral team facilitates weekly chapel services that help the students reflect on the ‘value’ of the week,” he explains. “GNLC also offers strong pastoral care support in line with the Christian faith that underpins every decision at the college. “Our school is known for innovative and progressive educational methods. The Information and Communications Technology (ICT) department is just one area in which this priority is realised, with students introduced to modern technological methods at an early age with a view to equipping them for the years ahead.” Technology for student use has an impressive ratio of 1.5 devices per student. Equipment includes university-level design desktops, Window Surfaces tablets, iPads and modern laptops. A fast-speed internet backbone ensures ICT equipment is utilised at optimum levels. “Our students enjoy 3D printing capacity, along with state-of-the-art physical design technology,” Mr Cusworth says. “An extension of the ICT program is the use of Bee-Bots at

This striking abode on about 740 square metres, a bold take on the modern-brutalist style, is opposite a park in the sought-after south side of town. Packed with glam and architectural interest, the house has four bedrooms that share two luxe bathrooms and a powder room. Along with a lounge room near the front door, there’s a fantastic living hub with sophisticated designer pendants a standout. The slick kitchen, a dream for cook and entertainer, is beautifully equipped and loaded with pizzazz. A covered deck faces a backyard that’s simple and stylish. Other features include lovely floorboards, ducted heating, refrigerated cooling, under-house workshop/storage and a double garage. Watton Street boutiques and cafes are a three-minute drive away.

This four-bedroom, two-bathroom house, carefully maintained by the original owner, present as a fantastic opportunity. The easement-free block of about 5620 square metres can be considered for a multi-residence development, subject to council approval. The block is well able of accommodating up to 25 townhouses – or perhaps the new owner will want to use the land to construct a new dream property in a popular pocket. The land also lends itself to medical, leisure or childcare centres, a place of worship or lifestyle living development. Titled, fully serviced and ready to build on tomorrow, the massive block is close to Westbourne Grammar and Al-taqwa College, while Wyndham Village shops are an easy drive away.

SPORT Consistency the key for Falcons City West Falcons have held Boroondara Express at bay to record their second win of the Victorian Netball League championship division. The Falcons started slowly before hitting the front towards the end of the first quarter. Once in front, they stayed there, winning 53-48. For Falcons coach Marg Lind, the Monday night win was pleasing. Both sides had a shorter break than usual and with other netball commitments, many of the Falcons had played three games in six days. “It was a really good win,” Lind said. “It was a big increase in workload. “They had a pretty good line-up, with Emma Ryde and Samantha Gooden from Melbourne Vixens and Collingwood in goals.

“We were in control for a lot of the game and got it out to 10 goals in the third quarter.” “They re-jigged their line-up going into the last. We threw a few balls away late so it should have been a six- to seven-goal lead.” Kath Knott finished with 42 goals from 47 attempts, while Stephanie Puopolo shot 11. The win is the Falcons’ second of the season. After a disrupted first game, they have had the same combinations for the past two games. “We’re not quite there,” Lind said. “We’ll get better connections and get better working together. Steph and Kath haven’t played together for five or six years and their games have changed in that time. We’re trying to get them in sync. “Steph hasn’t played with Maggie [Lind] and only played with Molly [Jovic] at Victorian

Fury. They are starting to come together.” With the Falcons sitting at 2-1, Lind said they were happy with the start of the season. “I thought we had a tough draw first up,” she said. “MU [Melbourne University] was always a danger game and Blaze [DC North East Blaze] and Boroondara are always difficult. I’m happy with two wins – it settles us down.” In division 1, a 20-goal last quarter got the Falcons over the line against Boroondara. The Falcons led by one goal at three-quarter time before shooting 20 goals to 12 in the final quarter to win 59-50. Tharjini Sivalingan shot 28 goals for the Falcons, including 18 from 20 attempts in the final quarter. Tara Murray

IN THE DOGHOUSE ■ Scott

Korczynski is the latest member of the sacked coaches’ club after being terminated by Caroline Springs Football Club. A few months ago he was the toast of the Lakers as the coach of their WRFL premiership-winning division 2 side. Five games later, he is on the scrapheap. We all know that is the cruel reality of football. What was wrong here was the way it was handled. You can argue about the timing, which I personally think was poor. What does not sit right with me is sacking someone over the phone. I wonder how the club would have felt if Scott had called them and said: “Sorry, got a better offer. I quit. Good luck for the rest of the season.” The situation deserved a face-to-face resolution. A player walkout was mentioned as a likely scenario if the coach was not sacked. That may have been the case – and if so, it must mean big changes at the club. It may as well not have a committee because the club has made it clear to everyone – including prospective coaches – that the players run the place. Last time I looked at the ladder, those players were responsible for zero wins and five losses. In all honesty, I doubt the majority of players were on the verge of walking out. I am not for one moment saying there were not problems that needed to be addressed. Clearly there were. One of the things that footy in the west has always prided itself on is respect. It was sadly lacking here. The aftermath will have long-term effects on the Lakers.

Kick-starting US career By Ewen McRae Caitlin Greiser is steadily climbing the ladder to soccer stardom. The 18-year-old from Caroline Springs is coming off a mammoth 12 months that has included winning club awards, training with W-League club Melbourne City, and travelling to the US to play in front of college scouts. The result is Greiser will be packing her bags for Miami in January to embark on a full athletic scholarship to Barry University, while still setting her sights on W-League contracts and national representation ambitions. It’s a long way from playing futsal at her local centre. “They told me to go try outdoor instead of indoor, they must have thought I had some sort of skill,” Greiser said. After starting at Green Gully Soccer Club, she moved to George Cross for two seasons before making the move to current club South 94 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ MAY 17, 2017

Melbourne. Each new club was seen as a stepping stone to push her talent. “I wanted to open up my opportunities to go play a higher level, so each club stood out for that at the time,” she said. “When I first came to South Melbourne I was in the under 16s, and the coach asked me to train with the reserves and seniors. That year I played more senior games than reserves so they gave me plenty of opportunities.” The striker has already made her mark at the club, scoring eight goals in a game last season to set a club record. It also put her on the radar for a trip to the US earlier this year, which set her career on a new path. “My coach, Socrates [Nicolaidis], took 18 or 19 girls over and we played two tournaments,” Greiser said. “We won every game in the first tournament but lost every one in the second one, but the improvement was enormous. Then I got

contacted by eight different colleges and two offered me scholarships. “So I’ll be there [Miami] for four years, and coming back in the breaks to hopefully play here. I want to play in the W-League one day, so this will help with that, hopefully.” Greiser trained with Melbourne City at times last year, getting the chance to meet stars such as Tim Cahill. The long-term dream is to make it as a striker for the Matildas. Greiser is the May nominee of the Don Deeble Rising Star award. The award, hosted by the Sunshine Western Region Sports Club and Star Weekly Weekly, recognises young athletes from the western suburbs who have achieved outstanding results at state and/ or national levels. Greiser will receive $1000, donated by the Yarraville Club Cricket Club, and other prizes, to help her in achieving her sports goals.

WRFL interleague sides had a mixed bag of results at the weekend, with the under-19s recording a gutsy three-point victory over the Northern Football League and the seniors on the receiving end of a 125-point thrashing. That margin is embarrassing for the competition. I wonder where interleague sits in the minds of the modern player. Is it something that is best left for under-age football? Other leagues seem to embrace the concept vigorously at senior level. I spent last Saturday in Wangaratta, where I found it is very important in local footy there. But I fear suburban footy is these days less based on geography than it has ever been, leading to a decrease in parochial passion. Maybe in five or six years, when the WRFL points system balances out the dollars, we will see more local passion for the interleague jumper.

Jets’ lack of targets exacts a losing toll A lack of dominant forward targets inevitably cost Western Jets a shot at victory as they went down to Greater Western Victoria by eight points at the weekend. While the Jets had 15 more forward 50 entries across the match, they lacked targets to make the most of that domination, fading late in the game to lose 11.5 (71)-9.9 (63). Jets coach Torin Baker said that while there was plenty to be proud of in the game, the result was disappointing. “In terms of the way we wanted to play the game, it was a good performance,” he said. “Our clearance winning ability was good and the amount of ball we got forward of centre was where we wanted it. But we had some real issues with our forward entries and then having enough forwards that could do the job on the day … in the end we just couldn’t do the job.” The game was an arm wrestle from the opening bounce, with Zak Butters’ early major

cancelled out by the Rebels as the teams traded blows in the opener. Neither side was able to stretch out beyond a 17-point lead all day. The Rebels led midway through the second quarter, but the Jets hauled that in by the long break and established their own nine-point buffer by the final change. Jets captain Nick Stuhldreier (34 disposals, 11 tackles) continued his strong start to the season with plenty of midfield presence across the game, while Connor Thar (28 disposals) was solid across half-forward and Josh Mould held down the defence with aplomb. Unfortunately, the Rebels made better use of their final quarter chances, kicking 4.2 to the Jets’ 1.2 to take the win. But Baker said his young side was on the right path. “We’re playing a reasonable amount of bottom-aged players at the moment,” he said.

“With that in mind, the season is probably tracking where it should be. “It’s just we’ve lost two games now where we had opportunities to win – maybe we should have pinched a couple more wins. “We know we’re not a top three team – and we’ve lost three games to the top three – but I’m really pleased with the way the players are approaching every game. “We feel we’ve been competitive for long times in every game. The effort is there, just not the results yet.” Ewen McRae

WRFL cops a thumping By Ewen McRae The Western Region Football League has been comprehensively humbled by the Northern Football League. Saturday’s interleague encounter was beset by poor kicking for goal by both sides early, but once the NFL players started kicking straight the gulf in class soon became apparent. The 24.17 (161)-5.6 (36) scoreline at Preston City Oval told the story. WRFL coach Anthony Eames said it was a valuable experience for his young side. “We gave it a good crack early, and even after quarter-time, but they [NFL] were just able to capitalise better on mistakes,” Eames said. “I think our group, especially the young blokes who have come through the junior ranks of the competition, will learn a lot from that game.”

Werribee City is officially out of its form slump after knocking off second-placed Moreland Zebras in National Premier League 2 on Saturday. After breaking through for their first win in six weeks in the previous round, the Bees showed that result was no flash in the pan by coming from behind to register the important 2-1 win over the Zebras. It was a performance that left coach Sergio Sabbadini satisfied with a winning plan. “We had the win the week before so we kept the same game plan,” he said. “We played well to get the result we wanted. “We set up to beat them on the counter attack and they fell for the trap and left themselves a bit exposed at the back – so that all worked out quite well.” The match started as most pundits expected, the high-flying Zebras grabbing the lead when Amir Osmancevic jumped on a loose ball in the box to beat the keeper and open scoring in the ninth minute. Werribee City replied immediately, with Domenico Marafioti slotting a calm penalty after the Zebras brought down an attacker in the box straight after the re-start. Scores remained locked until the break, and while the Zebras had some good chances to restore their lead it was the Bees who scored next, Marafioti volleying home from close range to give the visitors their first lead of the game after an hour of play. Luke Gavalas was kept busy in the Bees’ goal in the final half hour as the Zebras pushed hard for an equaliser, but the hosts couldn’t find an opening as they fell to their second loss of the season. Sabbadini said it was good to see his players get their season back on track in recent weeks. “I think the guys realised that the season would be over if we didn’t start winning soon,” Sabbadini said. “I think they played with a bit more freedom this week after a win the week before, so hopefully they keep that momentum going. “I think if we play like we did this week and last week, we’re not afraid of anybody – we just need to bring that sort of form with us and we can beat anyone.” Werribee City will return to its home pitch this weekend to host Ballarat City.

I think we dropped off across the board with our - Anthony Eames skills

’’

Just one major was kicked in the opening stanza, at the end of which the NFL led by four points. That was as close as the WRFL side would get. The NFL had two more majors on the board inside three minutes of the restart. Hoppers Crossing’s Jordan Staley kicked the first WRFL goal, but the Northern men slammed on seven more goals before half-time. Staley added a second major, his side going into the long break staring down the barrel of defeat at 67-18. The experience of the NFL shone through after the break as the side kicked 14.10 to just three goals for the rest of the match. Reece Miles kicked two goals in the third for the WRFL, while Sunshine’s Ben Christodoulou kicked the last goal of the game. Down back, Braden Ferrari and Liam Cavanagh toiled hard under an avalanche of defensive 50 entries. “They [NFL] are a polished and experienced outfit,” Eames said. “I think we dropped off across the board with our skills. “We still kept having a dip, but let ourselves down with our skill level and they were good enough to capitalise on that after quarter-time. “We over used it a bit by hand and once they got their tails up they were hard to stop.” Despite the loss, Eames said the interleague experience was a positive one for his young charges. “I think those that want to improve got a look at the work that you have got to do to get to that level,” he said. “There’s a lot of strength work required … a couple more big pre-seasons will do our boys the world of good. “I think if our boys are able to do that, and get more experience at this level, then they will be better footballers in the long run.”

Titans fail to overcome first half fade-out While the Western Region Football League’s top two divisions took a break for the interleague weekend, division 3 delivered a top-of-the-table thriller between Tarneit and Parkside. In a classic game of two halves, Parkside was kept scoreless after half-time yet managed to come away with a 13-point win to take top spot on the ladder as the only unbeaten side after five rounds. The 9.10 (64)-7.9 (51) scoreline only told part of the story, with Tarneit football manager Adam Taylor left with conflicting emotions by the end of it. “We weren’t really in it in the first half and then it was a remarkable effort to get back in to it in the second,” Taylor said. “We went into the game knowing we were up against it with the side they are. We had quite a few guys out, so it was a solid effort considering all that.” It was all going to plan early on for Parkside, with key forward Jason Cloke (three goals)

providing a strong target up forward and the defenders locking down their opponents to keep the home side to one goal in the first term. By the first break the Magpies had stretched out to a 30-9 lead, and they more than doubled that in the second quarter as they threatened to rout the Titans. Going into the long break with a 64-10 advantage had many in the crowd thinking it was game over, but the Titans had other ideas as they turned the game on its head in the third quarter. Not only did they keep the visitors scoreless but they kicked four goals of their own to close the gap to 29 points at the final change. But the poor start eventually caught up with the home side. Despite keeping Parkside scoreless again, the Titans could muster just 2.4 for the term as they suffered their first loss of the season. Taylor said the Titans would spend more

time addressing their deficiencies in the first half rather than focusing on the second-half comeback. “When you only kick one goal to half-time, I think you have to focus on that,” he said. “If we performed better in the first half you get yourself in a position where you may win, so the onus from the coach will be on that. “We hope to get some play-makers back next week to get us back on the winning track against Wyndham Suns, who we have a nice little rivalry with.” Ewen McRae

Point Cook grabbed its second win of the VAFA division 3 season on Saturday, outlasting Swinburne University on a day of errant goal kicking from both sides. While Point Cook had just four goalkickers across the day, they were able to kick slightly more accurately than their university opponents, winning 9.16 (70)-6.15 (51). Point Cook is eighth ahead of an important clash with La Trobe University this week. Five Western Jets have been shortlisted for places in the Vic Metro squad for this years’ under-18 national championships. Tristan Xerri, Nick Stuhldreier, Cameron Rayner, Buku Khamis and Lachlan Fogarty are part of the 47-strong squad invited to trial for the side. The squad numbers will be reduced in the lead-up to the championships in June and July.

Hockey

Werribee has continued its winning start to the Vic League 2 season, grabbing a goal in each half against Melbourne High to keep a firm grip on top spot. Holly Stewart and Sue Jones both hit the scoreboard for the Tigers, while they conceded just their third goal of the season as they took the win 2-1.

Basketball Eric Vuong is a rising badminton star. (Damjan Janevski)

Badminton star rises By Ewen McRae Badminton may not be in the bright lights, as are many other sports in Australia, but for Point Cook’s Eric Vuong it is the only sport that matters. Vuong is about to head to the Gold Coast to compete in the Sudirman Cup, the world mixed team championships of badminton. The tournament will give him the chance to put his name in the frame for a return there in 2018 for a home Commonwealth Games. The 21-year-old will be part of the 14-strong Australian team and among 1500 competitors from around the world at the Sudirman Cup. “I’m feeling pretty good – our preparation has been good and now it’s just getting ourselves ready,” he said. “We don’t play many games when we’re there, so you have to make each one count. We have a good chance to beat each country in our group, but it’s so close that we could lose them all.” 96 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ MAY 17, 2017

Vuong and his Australian teammates will take on Singapore, Austria and the US in the tournament, which will be the highest level at which he has played. He started playing badminton in primary school before proceeding to Western Suburbs Badminton Association and quickly rising through the Victorian ranks. “I wasn’t the best early, but they must have seen something in me,” Vuong said. “I think a year after I started playing tournaments, I was representing Victoria so it wasn’t until then that I thought I was good. “The early results weren’t the best – I was a bit of a late bloomer – but I slowly improved and the results started to come.” His progress hasn’t been without hard work, with Vuong currently training six days a week, often involving multiple sessions in a day combining on-court play, gym workouts and cardio fitness. Unlike other racquet sport practitioners,

badminton players tend to specialise in either singles or doubles, with Vuong concentrating on his doubles play in recent years. That’s allowed him to play men’s and mixed doubles events. “I think more of my talent was in doubles and mixed rather than singles,” he said. “It’s too hard to play all three events – just too hard to specialise – so for me it was an easy choice.” After the Sudirman Cup, Vuong’s focus will turn to qualifying for the Commonwealth Games team, which would involve him returning to the same Gold Coast arena in 2018. “I definitely want to make that Commonwealth Games team, but to do that I have to perform at this tournament and some other ones after that,” he said. “I think I have a good chance to make the team, but it’s going to be a big 12 months for sure.”

Werribee Devils proved no match for Waverley Falcons when they clashed in State Championship Big V action on Saturday. The Devils had a better shooting percentage than their opponents across the match, but were not able to create enough opportunities as the Falcons bolstered their hold on second place with a 79-71 win. For the Devils, Jeremy Smith (25 points, six assists) and Jordan Hughes (17 points, five three-pointers) were solid all game. The Devils will host last-placed Whittlesea this weekend.

Soccer

Hoppers Crossing slipped to its second loss of the State League 2 season on Saturday, going down to Corio in an entertaining contest. Taira Matsumoto hit the scoreboard in each half, but Corio was able to respond each time as it levelled at 1-1 before half-time then over-powered the home side to take the win 3-2. Hoppers Crossing will travel to Sporting Whittlesea this week. FOR MORE SPORT, VISIT Web: starweekly.com.au Wyndham Star Weekly @starweeklysport @star_weekly

VOLKSWAGEN GOLF GTI

the GTI is more liveable than most of its rivals, thanks to electronically adjustable suspension with normal, sport and comfort mode, as well as a ride and handling balance that prioritises comfort and stability over ultimate body control and track-day nous. Still, it’s not as thorough an update as it

could have been - we’ve experienced better GTIs in the Performance and 40 Years, but Volkswagen has chosen not to inject that level of dynamic focus into its standard GTI. Updated styling, extra power and improved tech will no doubt bring repeat customers and help attract new ones, but it feels like the

olkswagen’s Golf GTI has earned more than a few plaudits across its four decades of history, crafting a reputation as the hot hatch by which others are measured. The brand’s seventh-generation GTI arrived in 2013, bringing a significant increase in performance, as well as a lighter, stronger platform and more polished interior. This year’s model was always going to be impressive. The new car builds on a solid foundation with more power, sharper styling and an updated interior that offers technology rarely seen in cars priced under $100,000.It’s also a more focused-looking car that adds an extra dollop of aggression to a model that already offers significant aesthetic appeal. The emotional pull continues on the inside, where classic GTI touches in tartan seat trim and a golf ball-inspired gearknob meet modern additions such as an Audi-sourced dash that offers customisable views including beautifully rendered maps, in-depth trip computer info and a lap timer for track day junkies. We can’t say the same about the central infotainment screen, with its annoying lack of a volume knob and hit-and-miss gesture control. While you could accuse the regular Golf ’s cabin of being a little too demure, the GTI’s red-stitched flat-bottomed steering wheel, pin-stripe ambient lighting and well-bolstered seats make the hatch feel genuinely special in a way none of its c$40,000 rivals can match. It feels appropriately brisk on the road, effortlessly overtaking and powering out of bends with most of the gusto you’d expect from a modern performance car. While not the quickest car in its class,

brand is resting on its reputation. While the Golf GTI remains a well-rounded and impressively capable car, I can’t help but feel that the world’s largest car maker missed an opportunity to raise the bar. David McCowen
