BEVERLEY BLARNEY

Edition 356

June 2014

No Charge

The 99th Anniversary of the Gallipoli Landing was commemorated in Beverley with two services and tremendous community participation. The dawn service, conducted by Mr Peter Bremner, saw the marchers form up outside the Beverley Post Office before marching to the Cenotaph to be welcomed by a crowd of approximately 150 who joined the ceremonial observance. The conclusion of the dawn service saw the marchers and community members invited to join together at the RSL Hall for the traditional cooked gunfire breakfast of bacon, eggs and baked beans. The hard working RSL social committee served up 149 breakfasts and it was

pleasing to have community members assist with the clearing away and washing of dishes. Mid morning saw marchers forming up outside the RSL Hall and marching to the Cenotaph where around two hundred people had gathered for the 11 o’clock commemoration. This service was ably conducted by Mr John Lane, with Mrs Judy Moulton providing organ music for the hymns. Mr Rick Barrett-Lennard recited the ode, Mrs Joan McQuinn led the prayers, and singers from the Beverley Station Singers Choir and the Beverley District High School Choir each performed items. Student Councillors, Georgina Fisher and Evie Wilkinson recited the moving poem “Not a Hero” by Clyde Hamilton. The address given by RSL President Mrs Irene Oram listed all locations in which 102,784 Australian Service Personal have sacrificed their lives since 1885 when the first soldiers served in the Sudan. Wreaths were laid on behalf of the RSL, Beverley Shire Council, Beverley District High School, Hospital Auxiliary, Volunteer Fire Brigade, and Beverley Post Office. The Australian National Anthem was sung and the words of the New Zealand National Anthem were recited by the community. Once again this year, we displayed the New Zealand Flag during the ceremony. At the conclusion of the service, the marchers and the community were invited to the RSL Hall for light refreshments and a good deal of socialising with old mates. This year also saw a game of two-up enjoyed by some enthusiasts (yes it was licensed and our local constabulary had copies of the paperwork). The RSL Committee extend thanks to all those in the community who helped make this day of commemoration such a special event and allowed it to run so smoothly.

ANZAC DAY IN BEVERLEY

2 Beverley Blarney, Edition 356 – June 2014 www.beverleywa.com

President Report June 2014

Federal and State Budgets A raft of measures announced in the recent State and Federal Budgets create challenges for us all, and Councils will face ongoing tough decisions as they work to finalise their own budgets. Indexation of Federal Financial Assistance Grants (FAGS) has been frozen for the next three years, no longer rising in line with CPI and population increases, thus declining in value. FAGS assist to maintain a range of infrastructure such as parks, Council buildings, swimming pools and roads. The State government has abandoned a local roads funding agreement with Councils, cutting $56m in funding over the next three years. Local Government is responsible for almost 90% of the roads in the state and it is a constant struggle to keep up with maintenance and upgrades. The RforR Country Local Government Fund is no more. You may also have heard of the effect a State Government June 30 staff spending freeze has had on our local hospital and school.

Say Hello to the Wheatbelt The Wheatbelt Regional Blueprint has been released for viewing and public comment. I would encourage you to do just that as Regional Blueprints for the Wheatbelt, Great Southern, Southwest and Peel will be a new focus for Royalties for Regions funding.

Town Entry Statements This project is being progressed after a lull in activity since the initial design competition. Main Roads are currently reviewing the preferred sites along Great Southern Highway to consider all safety issues prior to implementation.

Trails Masterplan Council has endorsed the Trails Masterplan and is considering a 14/15 budget allocation to further this project.

Shire Councillors Technology Update Shire Councillors have recently been provided with Galaxy Tablets and will receive Shire related information, media releases, notices and correspondence via email, and access reports, agendas, minutes and other large documents via a “Drop Box”. We are in a learning/transitional phase with the aim of being fully functional early in the new financial year. If you see a Councillor a little

distressed we will need your patience! Eventually this should mean less paper, saved administration costs and timely delivery of information; pending adequate 4G coverage of course, which is still an issue for some of us.

Multipurpose Community Building? I would like to provide some preliminary information to the community as a recommendation from the 2013 Community Resource Centre Feasibility Study was to build a Multipurpose Community Centre. This would embrace an array of facilities and services including CRC, library, tourist centre, toy library, hot office space and early childhood learning and care centre. It would also then resolve a growing problem for Council in lack of Shire office space and storage. The consultant who carried out the study also undertook the Recreation Feasibility Study which was a catalyst to get the Beverley Function and Recreation Centre underway and access grant funding to do so. Council has cautiously supported development of a Business Case Plan for further consideration, particularly in terms of cost, even though it is becoming more apparent there is a need. More information will be provided in due course.

ANZAC Thankyou and congratulations to the RSL for arranging a successful ANZAC service in Beverley. Once again our “flower fairies” provided a fresh wreath for laying on behalf of the Shire and Citizens of Beverley, which was undertaken by Deputy Shire President Cr Chris Pepper.

Avondale The Avondale Farm Project Association have been proactive in supporting a bright future for Avondale. This has included oversight of the museum and more recently taking on responsibility for both the resident clydesdales, Robbie and Comet. If you are interested in supporting AFPA and/or becoming a National Trust Avondale volunteer leave your name at the Shire or contact AFPA President Sue Martin on 9646 4073. Avondale Warden Vacancy – this important position is being advertised on page 9 in the Blarney and includes accommodation at the property. Emergency Lighting for the Beverley Airfield The local St John Ambulance team have initiated a project to provide lighting at the airfield to enable night time access by the Royal Flying Doctor Service. Fundraising efforts and donations within the community have been impressive. Fundraising is continuing and further donations are welcomed. For information contact Beverley SJA President John Lane on 0429 965 654. Beverley Show – Saturday 23rd August 2014 The Shire Council will again have a presence at the Beverley Show. Councillors and staff will be on hand through the day to discuss Council plans, listen to constituent comments and concerns, and provide an array of Shire related information. See you there! Dee Ridgway Shire President

Avondale Farm Project Association Dina’s retirement from Avondale We were all sad to see Dina Barrett-Lennard leave Avondale in April after nearly 20 years of putting Avondale first. We wish her all the best in her new job at Muresk. We had a “farewell to Dina and Rob” barbeque to demonstrate to them both how much their hard work has been appreciated. Photo courtesy of Kelly Mann.

AFPA AGM AFPA held its AGM on the 12th of May at Avondale Homestead. A warm welcome to our new members who joined at the AGM. We are confident that with this keen and energetic committee, we can plan and implement more activities at Avondale in the coming year. So, watch this space for upcoming events. Avondale opening days Avondale is open to the public every 3rd weekend of the month on Saturdays and Sundays from 10am til 4pm. We are also open every public holiday weekend for the same hours until November this year when it will close for the Christmas break. We have a long weekend coming up at the end of May so we will be open on the 31st May, and the 1st and 2nd of June. Avondale is a wonderful place to visit. Our picnic area is a great to bring friends after looking around the homestead, checking out the stables, talking to the horses, and browsing though the museum. The free barbeques are a bonus when it comes to planning lunch. Entry to Avondale is free although we ask for a $2 entry fee to the Museum as this goes toward parts for the tractors and machinery so our volunteers can continue to maintain them. Workshop on cleaning and conservation techniques On Saturday June 21st Greg Manzie, conservator and museum consultant from Glyde Gallery Conservation will be presenting a workshop on Cleaning and Conservation Techniques of objects and photos at the Machinery Museum. Greg will be working with a sheaf of wheat that was thatched into a haystack in 1938 at Cookalabbi Stud in Coomberdale (Coomberdale was a siding between Moora and Watheroo) by Arthur Topham. The Sheaf was donated to Avondale in 1979. The workshop will also include a demonstration on how to work on historical photos. The cost for the workshop is $25 and will run between 10am and 4pm, morning tea will be provided. Contact no: 0419 195 943 Cake Stall Our first cake stall for the year was held on Saturday 24th May. It was wet and windy but this did not deter the rays of sunshine selling the produce who all had a fantastic morning. A big thank you to everyone including: Mitch Kerr for donating a beautiful and realistic painting of the Clydesdales for the raffle and to Max Hunter for donating wood for a second raffle, to Mitch Kerr and Marian Burn for collecting and artistically packing the horse poo, to a new Beverley resident, Anne Bolger for donating some wonderful knitted baby blankets and jumpers, to everyone who donated cakes and to those who bought them. The winner of the Clydesdale painting was John Pratt and the winner of the firewood was Jenny Ware. Congratulations to both of you. Robbie and Comet both say a big neigh…… to everyone who contributed to a very successful morning. We still have some horse poo for sale at $4 a bag. Please ring Marian on 0427 477 734 to purchase and arrange pickup. Photo on left: “Comet’s way of saying thank you to everyone” Photo courtesy of Greg Manzie.

Station Gallery and Platform Theatre News

Station Gallery Now that the busy events calendar is coming to the season’s end, the committee of Beverley Station Arts can afford a little time on maintenance at the Gallery and Residence. This includes spending the Volunteer grant received end of last year on some much needed furniture – both outdoor and indoor.

Above: Marylou, Pauline and Kathryn assembling the new sofas for the Station Residence We are fortunate to also have the Shire staff helping with the upkeep of the Station and surrounds which regrettably includes the removal of the gum tree central to the Platform Theatre due to falling limbs making it a safety hazard. We will be replacing the gum with a less risky tree but it will be a while till we see the shade such as we had become come to value on those hot afternoons. Artist-in-Residence

We said goodbye to Janet Pfeiffer soon after her encaustic painting class which was so informative and a load of fun. And then Lisa Riley arrived full of enthusiasm to paint the fabulous cloud formations we’ve been seeing this month. Unfortunately she lost some of her impetus as was called back to her day job but

has still been able to come back and man the gallery Thursdays through to Sundays, and has enjoyed much country hospitality in that time.

Above: Janet Pfeiffer at her encaustic painting workshop Developing that great idea of yours into a Novel or a Play West Australian novelist & playwright Marlish Glorie will be conducting a number of workshops at the Beverley Train Station as part of her writer-in-residency in July.

The Station Singers did themselves proud at Anzac Service in Beverley singing Lest We forget - a song written by the talented Kelly Newton Wordsworth which she will be singing herself at Supreme Court

Gardens next Anzac Day.

Twenty two members and one visitor (nice to meet you Suzanne) met at the Dead Finish for the May meeting of the Garden Club. We welcomed two new members (Val and Vicki) and settled down to business at 10.30am.

We needed to tweak our programme a little because the bonsai people can’t come until September and our visit to Pingelly Friendly Club is scheduled for October 7th. We discussed the dispensing of some funds and it was unanimously agreed to donate to the St. John Ambulance fund for the lights. Because of the change of programme it was decided that we would have a casserole lunch for the July meeting and incorporate a bring and buy. This will be held at the RSL hall, a delightful venue. Our next meeting will be the mosaic workshop which will be held on June 3rd on the verandah of the Dead Finish. Members wanting to participate will need to bring a pot (not plastic), tiles or old crockery, tile cutter, tea towel, old rags, tiling glue (or liquid nails or Selleys all fix), old knife or palette knife, empty ice cream container. We are beginning at 9.30 am and you will need to bring a picnic lunch. A busy bee will be held on June 12th to tidy up the garden at the Dead Finish. The welcome rain has bought most of our members out into their gardens and planting is well under way. Remember to compost as much as you can, it gives years of life to a garden and recycles lots of stuff that otherwise would go into the rubbish. Those of you who like bulbs might like to order through the school and support the fundraising they are doing. It is always good to support local initiatives. Potatoes, peas, broad beans, broccoli, silver beet, spinach and a broad spectrum of flowers such as alyssums, carnations, everlastings, carnations, nemesia, poppies, sweet peas are all able to be planted now. Please feed your fruit trees, especially the citrus as they are surface feeders and need feeding 4 times a year. They will reward you for it with juicier fruit. Seeds are available locally at the IGA and the hardware store and just for interest sake this week I found six different types of potatoes at the nursery in the middle of Northam. Gardeners who enjoy architectural plants might like to try globe artichokes. There is one in the Dead Finish potager garden and it looks splendid. If you don’t eat artichokes the flowers alone are worth growing the plant somewhere in your garden. They are huge and a gorgeous purple.

Happy gardening

BEVERLEY SUB CENTRE

Thank You! The Beverley Sub Centre committee would like to thank all the wonderful people who supported the auction held recently at the Freemason Tavern. Approximately $5,000 was raised which is a tremendous result, with all proceeds going toward the Airstrip Lighting Community Appeal. We want to warmly thank Amanda and Greg for all their assistance with the auction which enabled it to be such a success. Also, a big thank you to everyone who donated the items for auction, and what a great selection of items they were! To those who attended and bid for those items, thank you, and we hope you enjoy your purchases. RFDS The volunteers have been very busy with call outs recently which included the Royal Flying Doctor using the airstrip twice in the last fortnight. Fortunately, these were in daylight hours as until the airstrip lighting is installed they cannot land here at night. The fundraising for the lights is progressing well so we still hope that this will happen sometime during 2014. Airstrip Lighting Appeal Several donation tins are located throughout the town. These locations include the Newsagency, Bakery, Top Pub, CRC, IGA, Country Kitchen and the hospital reception. Your loose change can go a long way for greater emergency service care in our wonderful town. Please continue to give generously. On Friday 23 May our President John Lane was grateful to receive a $3,000 donation from the Sandgropers Caravan and Motorhome Group who visited Beverley last year. These were leftover funds from their trip to Beverley and we are very pleased they chose to put it towards the “Light up the Strip” Appeal. We would also like to acknowledge the Beverley Hospital Auxiliary who generously contributed their donated portion of funding towards the appeal. Photo: Eric, Terri, John, Joy and Barbara


Beverley District High School Ciao and benevenuti (Hello and welcome) to our news for this month. By the time you have read this article, the Faction Cross Country event will have been completed. We hope the students ran great races and that the expected 10-15mm rain held off until after the event. Australia’s Biggest Morning Tea was also held on that day and we hope that lots of funds were raised for such a worthy cause and of course everyone would have been well and truly fed with the generous donations of cakes, etc. NAPLAN has been and gone and results will come parents’ way towards the end of the year. We are sure every student in Yr 3, 5, 7 and 9 put in their best effort. Just a reminder if you would like to have a paperless society, please think seriously of subscribing to the school newsletter by pressing the subscribe button on the Beverley DHS webpage-www.beverleydhs.wa.edu.au. The webpage has been revamped so go and have a look at it. We are open to suggestions, so please send them our way. Year 7 - 8 Technology Students have been busy improving their machine sewing skills by making heat packs. Seams and hems were used to sew a calico inside channelled bag filled with wheat and dried lavender. Then a pretty cotton fabric outer cover was made. Heat packs are a first aid item which is heated briefly in the microwave before being placed on an injured part of the body to help relieve pain.

May was a very busy and productive month for the group. Easter saw the airing of a large number of beautiful quilts made by members and displayed at the Dead Finish Museum. Eight members participated in an overnight retreat at a property on Valentine’s Road after the Easter break. Skills learnt at a recent dying workshop were demonstrated and the fabric was used in a new technique to create “convergence quilts”. These retreats are a great way to bond new and old friendships with plenty of chatter, coffee, good food, walks and patch working. The group was also successful with our submission to the Shire for a grant to extend our knowledge of using the quilting frame at Avondale. Four members have already travelled to Perth for a workshop, with 3 to 4 more workshops planned over the next few weeks. New members are always welcome and we meet Tuesdays at Avondale.

First of all, the Beverley Playgroup Inc. Committee, wishes to thank our beautiful community for their support and generosity and, our members who donated cakes and / or their time for our Cake-Stall held on Saturday 17th May! We raised a massive $440, which will help us run programs, such as the Boogie Roos, at low cost to our members and get new toys and equipment. Over the last few weeks we had lots of new members and the attendance has been fantastic! It’s heart-warming to see that we have so many young ones in town. The all play great together and love the activities. The more the merrier! Upcoming this month and new to Playgroup: a Baby Group! The aim is to get parents with new-borns and young babies together to meet, socialise and share tips and ideas. We will run the group for 3 weeks only on Thursday at the end of the normal Playgroup session, starting on 19th June. It’s free and we arranged our locals Physiotherapist, Speech Therapist, Child Health Nurse, Occupational Therapist and Dietician to come over to answer queries parents may have. Dianne, Child Health Nurse, will bring the scales to weight babies if parents wish. Jenette, our President is organising a date with Sandra from the Boogie Roos for the 3rd term, probably on 31st July, and we hope to book another one for the last term. For those who didn’t come last year, Boogie Roos is an award winning program for babies and young children (2014 International What's On 4 Junior Awards: Most Outstanding Activity Leader 0-5 years and Best Local Baby and Preschooler Activity 0-5 years winner). For an entire hour Sandra puts the music on and makes children wriggle, jump and dance with props such a pompoms, parachute etc... It’s a lot of fun and keeps the little ones active while parents can watch the action and catch up. We still have more in store for the rest of the year, so keep tuned. Finally, we are still welcoming new members, so any parent / carer with babies or children up to 4 years old can attend at anytime and are entitled to 3 free sessions before joining. We hope to see you there J

BEVERLEY COMMUNITY REFERRAL INFORMATION AND PARALEGAL SERVICES

1. Budget cuts are the hot news of the day:- For all who are interested in

TV and radio reports and how Australian, both indigenous are effected. See CRANA Aboriginal Corp. for more details.

2. This publication will mainly touch on Centrelink Age Care and Disability Pensions. Disability Support Pensioners:- Statistics and research indicate to us that there are 800,000 currently receiving benefits. This figure is now increasing by 10,000 each year. In recent days this Minister and the Treasurer have stated, that there will be a complete shake up of the whole system. a. All recipients will be reviewed and accessed if needed. b. Those under 35 years of age will be assessed i.e. they will be

sent to a body (newly formed) of independent doctors. c. Their words used “those who are capable of working MUST

WORK and if not will be put on Newstart Allowance”. Therefore one could loose around $200/- plus per fortnight.

Other public statements made: There will be some pain, everyone must share the burden. Nothing is Free. 3. The comments, on the other hand by organisations such as: Human Rights, Disability, Indigenous, Health Professionals, Dental Practitioners, Careers, ACOSS, parents and so the list goes - too numerous to mention. All without exception clearly state: That once again, the most vulnerable, disadvantaged, needy, not so fortunate in our Australian community are being targeted and forced to share and carry the economical burden which, we are told is around 36 billion dollars. Saving from the Disability Support Pension. 4. AGE CARE: Now that one has to stay in the workforce till age 70. Because of the age hike, the question is who will have the capacity to work. If those unfortunate, will end up in age care residences. Some residence are complaining, due to lack of funding are battling to keep their staff. 5. My final comments based on my line of work: some 15 years ago, words like reviews, assessment, shake up, lead to investigators with latest IT equipment and some were taken off the Disability Support Pension, as footage taken proved they were capable of working. As a former, long term Shenton Park patient, it is proper to keep an accurate record of your incapacity and seek medical advice, remember all this will now be tested. i.e. as to what you are capable of doing and not doing. Mal G Roberts

CRANA Aboriginal Corp. Inc. Budget cuts once again, the most disadvantaged in our community will have to pay the high price. This will have a devastating effect on both indigenous and non-indigenous Australians. HEALTH: Some family and children services have been slashed and other services have been withdrawn and indigenous staff have been sacked. (TV/radio reports). EDUCATION: Special services to cater for the needy, disadvantaged and programmes to support children with a disability, have been disadvantaged as their funding has been reduced or cancelled. MEDICAL: In spite of all the research, evidence, statistics and known facts which prove, that the life span of indigenous people is far shorter, by approximately 10 years sooner than non indigenous, especially children, who have a 40 % higher mortality rate. Yet the services provided were sub standard and will furthermore deteriorate, placing a further burden on their culture and life expectancy. Last month TV reports pointed out that family members who travelled from up North, to visit critically ill patients (family members) would normally stay at the YMCA, which has been closed. These indigenous families had to sleep in the open parks for many days, around the Perth area. AGED AND DISABILITY SUPPORT PENSIONS: Some will be reviewed and assessed. RESEARCH AND LAND CORPORATION: Whole programmes have been cancelled, departments have been closed down. CEO and other staff members have been made redundant. Some staff worked diligently for well over 20 years, they did not receive any notice or even a phone call, they heard about their departments demise, through the media. These are real life true cases. ABORIGINAL LEGAL AID SERVICES: Funding has been drastically reduced, which is causing concern right throughout the legal, social, community and human rights organisations. If anyone if denied justice i.e. by cutting legal aid, they have no representation in the courts. This will result in more incarcerations as prison residents. What experts in this field say, that more funding is needed to prevent one from going to prison, less funding will have the opposite effect.

Some learned experts state, that in the indigenous culture, when adults are incarcerated in prisons and detention centres; causing a feeling of loss of culture, identity, connection to their land and sadness, which, is unbearable and in some cases does lead to suicide. From what has been said, the cutting of Aboriginal Legal Service funding may have very serious consequences for some indigenous families. MEDICARE CO-PAYMENTS: $7 for visit to the GP, for emergency, blood test, x-rays and the list goes on. A fair question is how many sick and needy would be able to afford this added burden of money extraction which is unaffordable. RECONCILLIATION, CLOSING THE GAP, CHANGES TO THE CONSTITUTION: Reality is that in spite of research, which shows, that the majority of Australians would like to see these issues of concern dealt with, there has been much talk and little or no action. Once again promises are made and never kept. CONSUMER ADVOCATES: Are advising indigenous people not to release personal information, including bank account details. Do not commit to verbal contracts over the phone, unless you understand the terms and conditions, TV reports showed some Kimberley region residents were being influenced by door knockers and did not understand what they were signing for. If in doubt come and see me, I will secure legal advice. Mal G Roberts Mitch Henry Director President NB The real effects of the budget cuts will be known and felt in the next 3 months.


Make a Movie, Make a Stand, Make a Difference.

This year, WA Police is encouraging all Western Australian high school aged students to actively become ‘Community Safety Champions’, as part of the innovative Students Advising Youth Project (SAY Project) for 2014. Supported by local Lions Clubs and Murdoch University, students are encouraged to produce a short (90 – 105 seconds) film about making their community “drug free and drug aware”. The top film will win $1,000 cash and an all-expenses paid trip for them and a guardian to fly to Canberra and attend Parliament to present their film to a Government representative. $1,000 prizes also available for 2nd, 3rd and 4th placed film makers.

About the SAY Project.

In 2013, Acting Sergeant Tam McKeown initiated the SAY Project to encourage young people to be educators among their peers to deliver messages about key community safety issues such as illegal drugs, road safety and alcohol abuse.

Supported by the Department of Education WA, the Project aims to provide students with a strong anti-drug education during the research component of this year’s subject, and in addition, students will actively promote and market their own anti-drug films through both local networks and social media in their communities. Informative podcasts have been produced to assist you and your students to learn more about participating in the Project. View the SAY Project Podcasts.

Schools and community / youth organisations are required to complete and submit a registration form no later than 24 July 2014. The promotional poster is also available online for distribution in your school or community / youth organisations. How to participate in the SAY Project – Key dates

We thank you in advance for your support in promoting the SAY Project among your students andyouth. Together we can harness their enthusiasm, innovation and creativity to empower them to become educators of other youth on these prevalent issues affecting our community.

We have high hopes that this Project will benchmark itself and showcase the innovative role that our young people can play in relation to enhancing community safety.

Thank you in advance for your support.

THE BLUE LINE Beverley Police Station

57 Hunt Road, Beverley WA 6304

Hello Everyone,

What’s with the meerkats? Well, since the road works at the top of Vincent Street x Hunt Road were started (surely they aren’t finished?) that’s what myself and Ian have become. Everyone, even those in our community who use gophers, all sound as though they are hooning when approaching the junc on. I tear my head off my shoulders when I hear cars turning on to or off Vincent Street and poor Ian has pulled his hammy 3 mes sprin ng over the front counter since the road works turned the road into a gravel pit. It’s. Driving. Us. Bonkers !!!!!!!!

Anyway, enough of our meerkat tendencies, I’d like to take this opportunity to congratulate the motorists of Beverley for driving impeccably and for the most part s cking to the posted speed limits. We’ve been doing quite a bit more traffic enforcement in and around town and have had to either issue ckets or cau on very, very few Beverley motorists. That said, don’t forget the speed limits, they are there for a reason and as annoying as they might be they are a lot less annoying than receiving a cket or paying a visit to hospital, or both.

There’s not much to report on the crime front since the last Blarney. We are travelling very well with very few crimes being reported to us so we all must be doing something right. Let’s stay vigilant and con nue to report anything you think seems a bit out of the ordinary. We are all ears……….

I know I’ve men oned this before but I’ll men on it again as this me it happened to me. The scammers are back

bombarding email accounts again. I recently had a very official looking email from ANZ land in my work email inbox. They

were asking me for my account details and password as there was a ‘security issue’ with my account. All I had to do was

click on a link. Now there’s just one problem with this request, I’ve never been a customer of the ANZ. I asked a friend in

our computer crime department what was the likely consequence of me clicking on the link (I had no inten on of doing so)

and he replied; “It’ll bugger up your computer”. So when a bloke who loves computers and smells like he washes

infrequently tells you something like that you take no ce and pass on the advice to everyone in town. So that’s what I’ve

just done.

Speaking of technology, whilst we love speaking to everyone face to face we can’t always be there so, are you aware of the

online repor ng capabili es on the WA Police website, h p://www.police.wa.gov.au?

In July 2013, WA Police implemented the Check My Crime portal which allows a person to check the status of their incident

a er it has been reported to police and also permits them to add addi onal stolen or damaged property to the report.

In March 2014, the Report My Lost Property portal was implemented. This enables members of the public to complete a

report of lost property without having to ring the police or a end a police sta on.

These are just two of the online repor ng services that members of the public are able to use. Other reports and forms

include, but are not limited to, firearms‐related ma ers, hoon, crash and graffi reports and the ability to register a party.

Apparently more op ons will be coming so as soon as I hear about them I'll let everyone know! That’s all for now folks,

Ian’s s ll here for a couple of weeks yet and I’m busy sor ng out his replacement. The fields are ge ng greener and the

rain is ge ng we er (is that possible?). So rug up and light the fire because it’s ge ng

colder !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Take care everyone, The 2 Ians.

BIG ENOUGH TO DO THE JOB SMALL ENOUGH TO CARE

BEVERLEY JUNIOR NETBALL CLUB NEWS

Wow, what an amazing group of players that we have this year. The Year 5 and under group has 16 players and the Year 7 and under group has 20 players, enough for 4 teams. The numbers for 2014 are astounding and have allowed the girls the opportunity to enjoy plenty of me on court with matches being played each weekend. Due to the number of players the coaches have decided that the Thursday training sessions will be weekly. Training is to commence at the courts at 3.30pm‐4.30pm. These training sessions are for skills development, theory and fitness. Training prior to games against other towns will be 3.30pm‐5.00pm and will be a quick training session followed by a game. This allows those players that have a scheduled bye the opportunity to s ll get on the court that week and have a game. For parents that do not have the roster of byes please see your coach and we can organise a copy for you. The teams have played two games against other towns, the first being against Quairading which unfortunately we didn’t come away with a win but they never stopped trying. The second match was against Cunderdin in which both teams did have a win, which thrilled all of the players. A team of 9 players (13 and under), represented Beverley at the 2014 Wheatbelt Regional Carnival in Northam, pictured below. The team played a total of 8 matches over the day, they didn’t make it to the semi finals but gained valuable experience and had a great day out. This is the first me Beverley has been to this carnival

and we will be heading back over to Northam in August for the 12 and under division.


BEVERLEY LIONS CLUB As you may be aware, the Beverley Lions Club is closing down. I do not believe that it is any one or anybody's' fault. It is simply a sign of the times. All service clubs are struggling and have been struggling for a while already. Pat Thompson and I are the only active members left and it has fallen to our lot to do the hard yakka involved in closing down the Beverley Lions Club. We have now received permission to sell off all the assets that are left in the Club. The most significant of these are the following: The trailer which had been

fitted out to carry all the catering equipment including tables, chairs, and pergolas, gas BBQ's and catering equipment. We are hoping to be offered in the region of $3000 to $3500 for the trailer.

We also have one 3.5 KvA inverter generator for $300.

The RSL has agreed to make us an offer for some of the catering equipment and the tables and chairs plus one (at least) BBQ of the three on hand.

The electric urn has been sold for $100.

Should you are interested in any of the items please feel free to contact me to arrange to view what is in the trailer. Regards, Lynn Isaacs 0447 051 659

Small Landholder News With Jodie Whitfield Small Landholder Information Service Department of Agriculture and Food, Western Australia

As the rain starts to fall, we can’t help but take a sigh of relief - but that does not mean our jobs for now are finished. With the rain replenishing our paddocks and starting to soak our soils there is plenty to get done! This season’s lambs will need to be ear marked and branded with a red tag. Lambs should also be vaccinated with a 3 in 1 injection and this should be repeated at weaning. As the temperature drops and the rains continue, it is important to provide stock with young, access to sheltered areas away from the cold and wet conditions. This will reduce the risk of animals getting hypothermia. All owners of livestock (cattle, sheep, goats, alpacas, etc.) must be registered, even if you only own one. If you are not currently registered please call the Brands Office for assistance on 9780 6207. Pasture growth rates will start to decline as temperatures decrease and it may be necessary to move stock from paddocks with low levels of food on offer (FOO) to protect these paddocks from overgrazing and ensure good growth rates in spring (see SLIS’s ‘Rotational grazing for small landholders’ available at agric.wa.gov.au/small_landholder). Through June, the sowing of oats for hay production can still be undertaken. Match varieties to the season length you have remaining for your area. This ensures that the timing of hay cutting occurs at the right stage of the plants’ development for the best quality and quantity of hay. For those with an orchard, once the last of the leaves have fallen start pruning stone and pome fruit. It is also important to control winter weeds in your orchard. Be careful if you are using mulch as a method for controlling weeds as it can encourage collar rots if it is put hard up against the stem of the tree. Winter is also a great time to plan any changes or improvements you would like to make to your property (see SLIS’s ‘Developing a property plan for small landholdings’ landholders’ available at agric.wa.gov.au/small_landholder). Before any problem on your property gets too big, make sure you deal with it. Leaving it to potentially get worse will only hinder you in developing the property you want. Visit our Facebook page at facebook.com/DAFWAsmalllandholders for up-to-date information and great tips on managing your property. We would love you to like us! Our seasonal e-newsletter keeping you on top of what you need to know for the coming season has just been emailed out. Sign up now at agric.wa.gov.au/small-landholder-information-service-e-newsletter to start receiving your copy. Until next time, Jodie

BEVERLEY HISTORICAL SOCIETY

March Meeting: There were 9 members in attendance with 3 apologies. Easter Opening: Once again we had an extended opening over the Easter weekend with some beautiful Quilts featuring fabrics and designs from other countries as far apart as Japan, Indonesia, New Zealand, The Netherlands and Isle of Harris, Scotland - all made by members of the Beverley Quilters and Patchworkers group. Congratulations to these artistic people and thank you for displaying them in the Dead Finish Museum. The Historical Society put together displays and stories on the theme “Journeys” including the story of one man’s extraordinary emergency effort to get from Babakin to Bally Bally to see his wife and child in 1910; and another, in verse form, describes an early outing in a Chrysler vehicle from town to Quajabin (County Peak). This latter display will remain at the Dead Finish Museum and is well worth the reading. WWI Project – Remembering Them: We have made some advances with this project by deciding on the themes of the 3 panels to be made by the WA Museum for Beverley. The Coordinator of the Project, Naomi Lam, is to attend our May meeting. Family Research: A student at Notre Dame University made some

enquiries about postcards sent by Jim Edwards of Anbrook after WW1.

A family member wants information about Una Elaine Cherrill born in Beverley in 1912.

Donations: Copies of speeches made by Dee Ridgway, Terry

Waldon and Paul Brown at the official opening of the new Recreation Centre

2 Dinner plates with WA wildflower designs used by the State Steamships on their voyages up and down the WA coastline.

The Beverley Times: Members adjourned to the Beverley Shire Office after the meeting to be given a demonstration of the digital Beverley Times. It is fascinating to look up specific dates, people or events from 70 years of publication of our news-paper with a few keystrokes. Thank you, Sheridan. Next Meeting: Venue: Dead Finish Museum. Date & Time: 12th May 2014 - 10:30am Special Guest: Naomi Lam, WA Museum. Welcome: Anyone interested in local history For more information contact the Secretary on [email protected] .

BEVERLEY HISTORICAL SOCIETY

April Meeting: There were 10 members, including a new member, in attendance with 4 apologies - at the earlier time. Special welcome was made to our two guests from the WA Museum: Naomi Lam and Jessica Needle. Reports were presented on a series of workshops and a museums meeting attended by Society members. Workshops at York Archives Centre Two members had interesting sessions over three Saturdays on the following three topics: 1. Archiving Basics; 2. Dealing with Paper and Books; 3. Digitising. They were very well organised and the presenters were experts in their separate fields. Wheatlands Museums Meeting in Merredin Four members from Beverley representing the Dead Finish & Aeronautical museums travelled to Merredin for the Wheatlands Chapter of Museums Australia meeting, held in one of the old buildings on Merredin Railway Station that make up the Merredin Museum. The meeting heard reports from the 13 museums present. We then had a presentation on the Merredin Trails that are designed to attract locals as well as tourists. After lunch we walked to the local Art Deco Courthouse and the Cummings Theatre where we saw and heard about the history and conservation of both these buildings. Family Research: A family member requested information about the

birth of a Gladys Winifred Edmonds born 3rd March 1910 (not 16th March as family thought) and died 1981.

From Victoria, a descendant (named Beverley) of Thomas Kilpatrick– has been put in contact with family members in the district.

A family member of a Thomas Henry Gard who died in 1934 seeks the location of his gravesite.

WWI Project – Remembering Them: Naomi Lam addressed the meeting about this project funded by Lotterywest. Our Museum will obtain 5 panels about WW1: two are generic to all participants in WA while three will contain local Beverley information. As well, we will receive a modern secure showcase in which to display memorabilia from WW1. The meeting concluded with a light lunch. Next Meeting: Venue: Dead Finish Museum. Date & Time: 9th June 2014 – 2pm Welcome: Anyone interested in local history For more information contact the Secretary on [email protected] .

Get ‘Back to basics’ with FOODcents®

Australian’s are busy and many of us think we don’t have the me or money or priority for regular family meals. Chasing convenience and me, we are relying on takeaway and ready made meals more than ever before. In fact, the average family spends $3640 a year on takeaway! Takeaways and ready made meals might seem like good value but it’s all in the marke ng. Have a look at the price per kilo of fresh foods and compare to convenience foods – you might be surprised at the true cost of healthy op ons. Did you know that all of your healthy groceries are GST free? FOODcents® is a program that helps families to achieve a healthy diet and to save money on their grocery shop. The program is based on the simple concept that the healthy foods we need are cheaper and more versa le than the processed products we have come to rely on. Over the last two decades FOODcents, has been quietly educa ng thousands of West Australians that healthy ea ng doesn’t have to cost the earth. “FOODcents is all about promo ng simple, healthy home cooking using loads of fruit and vegetables and only choosing packet foods that don’t have a long ingredient lists.” Challenge your family to go ‘Back to Basics’ in the kitchen this week. Buy more fruit and veg, choose packet foods without long ingredient lists, take packed lunches and enjoy quick meals like beans on toast when me is ght. You might be surprised at the money you save. For more informa on visit www.foodcentsprogram.com.au or email [email protected]. …………………………….. If you are involved with a club or group who want to improve their food literacy through knowledge and skill development then FOODcents is the program for you. The program is prac cal and appropriate for adult groups from various cultural, linguis c and social backgrounds. Please contact Karen Hansen, Regional Educa on Officer Wheatbelt on ph. 9690 1746 or email [email protected] for further informa on. FOODcents week from 19‐25 May 2014 celebrates its 20th anniversary.

BADMINTON Wednesday’s ‐ Town Hall

All Welcome ‐ Men and Women


WARRIORS WELLBEING – June 2014 The Myth that Men Don’t Talk.

As blokes we get told all the time, “Men just don’t talk!” One of the things that never cease to amaze me in the job we do, is that given the right circumstances blokes will disclose their issues and tell their story. Every bloke that I have met has a story and/or issues and wants to talk about it.

Blokes do talk, firstly we have to acknowledge the differences between how the genders go about this. There are also some other factors that need to be considered in how we go about talking with blokes.

The differences are real and we need to acknowledge some of the communication differences between blokes and ladies:

Blokes only talk one third as much as ladies in a day (approx. 7000 to 21,000 words).

This can be explained by the fact ladies think and speak in a narrative way where blokes prefer dot points.

Single word responses to questions like - Yes, No, good, bad and grunting are considered responses by blokes.

Blokes find it uncomfortable to talk about their emotions. We have been conditioned not to and are hard wired differently, often focusing on problem solving, providing and protecting, rather than how we feel, let alone talking about it.

Some other factors that need to be considered by both blokes and ladies may contribute to having a more productive outcome when having “that talk”:

Choosing the right environment to communicate is essential. This is not when we are distressed and out of control, but when we have calmed down. Also, avoid being under the influence of alcohol, which can act as a “mood enhancer” and alter our state of mind.

Timing is also an important factor to consider. Agree on a designated time to talk, avoid times when you are preoccupied with other tasks, or when there are a lot of things happening.

Be prepared to listen – The most important part of talking is LISTENING. (I think this is an OXY MORON!) Having respect, connection and some empathy with whom you are talking will give you more chance to become and active listener.

Getting help with having a talk with your bloke – Don’t be afraid to seek help in having a talk with your dad, husband, son or mate i.e. use and independent person, your GP or a counsellor.

Considering the above factors and “giving permission” to blokes that it’s ok to talk about things that cause us discomfort or pain may assist with blokes talking, but sometimes this does take time.

From little things big things grow (just like this year’s crop), Blokes do talk – Sow the seed towards a meaningful conversation.

Cheers

The Words of the Preacher

“Jesus. . . .said. . . . ‘Verily, verily, I say unto thee, except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.’ Nicodemus saith unto Him, ‘How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter the second time into his Mother’s womb, and be born?’ Jesus answered, . . . ‘That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, ye must be born again.’ “ John 3:3-4 and 6-7 “Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever. For all flesh is as grass and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away: But the word of the Lord endureth forever. And this is the word which by the Gospel is preached unto you.” 1Peter !-23-25

BEVERLEY TOURIST BUREAU Since the last Tourist Bureau report, two volunteers went to Merredin as representatives of the Aeronautical Museum to the Annual Museums Wheatbelt Chapter meeting. A dozen Museums were represented and one person from each group gave a report on their museum and it’s progress for the previous year. These were varied and interesting and as always there is something to learn by listening and talking to others. A common factor with all groups was the shortage or lack of volunteers. We in Beverley are not alone in getting com-ments such as “Why weren’t you open on …………? It was an early start to the day and a long drive but informative, friendly and very welcoming from our hosts mem-bers of the Merredin Railway Museum. Our tourist bureau is still having regu-lar visitors from WA and interstate who invariably are informative themselves about their hometowns or countries. Ongoing talks have been held this month with the Shire and members of the CRC, and the decision has been made to hand over the business side of the bureau to the CRC, so the volunteers can concentrate on the job we originally were asked to do i.e. meet and greet and hopefully answer queries although I must admit that they are not always entirely related to tourism. Three weeks ago I had a phone query for a dentist and this man assured me the dentist was in Bever-ley. We do not give out information of home addresses even of fictional char-acters. I suggested he call the dental clinics in York for info about the name he had given me. More about our changes in the next report. Once again thank you to all of our volunteers.

BEVERLEY REDBACKS HOCKEY CLUB The 2014 Season is in full swing and what a fantas c start to the year the girls had. With 3 games down, the girls have worked extremely well as a team and we can see that all teams within the compe on this year have stepped up and are hungry for the win.

Round 1 Wongan Hills vs Beverley 3rd May We travelled to Northam and faced the Wongan Hill Dri ers. In what was a hard fought game, the girls came out winners, keeping Wongan scoreless. Our fitness and training clearly showed, as the girls worked well together as a team to achieve the win.

Round 2 York Vipers vs Beverley 10th May The girls traveled to York to face the York Vipers. In a day that felt more like Melbourne weather, the girls fought hard but unfortunately were not able to score against a strong York side. We welcomed 3 new players to the team who gave us some fresh legs when needed. The girls fought hard all game, with both a acking and defense working extremely hard.

Round 3 Beverley vs York Cougars 17th May We hosted our first game of the season with everybody happy to have a smooth field to play on. With the team working extremely hard at keeping the ball down our end of the field for the majority of the game, the York girls managed a sneaky goal in the first half. Even though the girls had many opportuni es, we unfortunately could not get a score on the board.

Lyme Disease. We freak out when our beloved pets get a tick, but little do we know that even the smallest of infected ticks can pass on numerous life-threatening infections to humans. Lyme disease has nothing to do with citrus. It was named after a town in Connecticut in the USA where this chronic disease was first identified. It’s become a global disease epidemic, which is often a mystery for Australian doctors. As vectors, or carriers of infections, the bite from infected ticks can pass on diseases with mysterious names like Borrelia, Rickettsia (tick typhus), Babesia, Bartonella and Lyme disease. The spirochetes of the Lyme-causing Borrelia bacteria are the corkscrew-like causative agents much smaller than the bacterium itself. They tunnel into cells and spread the bacteria DNA throughout the body, causing the debilitating infection. These spirochetes protect infected cells with a complex defence of bio-films and cysts, making chronic infections harder to treat. Lyme is one of the fastest growing tick-borne infections in the world. Each year 300,000 (0.1 per cent) of people in the USA are infected. Similar epidemic figures from around the globe suggest 21,000 Australians could be infected annually. The symptoms of Lyme disease can vary greatly from person to person: joint pain, extreme fatigue, numbness, tingling, stabbing pains, night sweats, cognitive dysfunction, air hunger and recurring fevers caused by the body’s responses to the infection. Yet Lyme disease is not officially recognised in Australia. Negative test results are controversial, as many Australian and overseas types of the disease are not included in the testing. Chronic Lyme is also known as a great imitator with vague symptoms. It often mimics symptoms of Motor Neurone Disease (ALS), or Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, Multiple Sclerosis, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia (Acknowledgment Francene Lee Taylor)

The Lyme Disease Association of Australia highly respects the fact that there are many stakeholders in the current evaluation of Lyme disease or Lyme-like illness in Australia – pathologists, Infectious Disease Specialists, specialist

GP’s and more. The patient perspective however is quite different. To quote our lead author “WeliveLymediseaseeverysingledayandwhileanyoneelsecouldwalkawaytomorrow,wecan’t”. Whilst we value and desire scientific rigour, as patients, we already know Lyme disease is here and we want effective and affordable

diagnosis and treatment. (Acknowledgement Lyme Disease Assoc.Australia)

Well done to Amy and Tom who went to the Kellerberrin Showjumping Spectacular. They did quite a few rounds and heights and finished off at 70cm! Amy and Tom were 3rd in the 45cm Equitation and 3rd in the AM7 60cm (apparently it could have been 1st, but Amy forgot the jump-off course and lost time).

Tealah and Cherry went to the Avon Valley's Dressage and Zone Showjumping Day on the 5th of April. Tealah rode the Dressage Pre B test, Showjumping 35cm and 45cm. She came second in the 35cm. Super!

Out and About This month saw two of our riders out flying the Pony Club colours.

GOOD LUCK!! Quite a number of riders will be out in June attempting their first One Day Event hosted by Avon Pony Club, and also at Avon competing at the Novice Games and Novelties. We look forward to reporting the results next Blarney!

See you all for our next rally on the 15th of June, gear checking @ 8.30am Sharp! Please contact Mrs Pauline Appelbee via email [email protected] or phone 96471181 so that she knows who will be attending the rally!
