The Dandenong Journal continues itsproud tradition of almost 150 years inDandenong.
MMP is proud of the achievements of theWeekly and its predecessors and wishes tothank readers and advertisers for their kindsupport over many years. We hope that theFrankston area will continue to be wellserved by local press.

Angst over kinder spots, feesBY ALECIA PINNER
FRANKSTON parents wanting to enrol theirchildren in three-year-old kindergarten nextyear are likely to face higher fees and lessoptions on centres.
Parental fees for four-year-old kinder aresubsidised by the state government and untilrecently four-year-old fees were being used topay for staffing and costs of three-year-oldkinder, which is not subsidised.
Due to federal government changes tokindergarten structures, children will berequired to attend kindergarten for 15 hours aweek instead of 10 hours and 45 minutes andmore staff and resources are required. Thetransition is under way and will be completenext year.
Although government subsidies haveincreased to cover the hours, the Departmentof Education and Early Childhood Develop-ment recommends against the four-year-oldsubsidy being used to pay for three-year-old
kinder. Rising fees and decreasing demand forthree-year-old kinder meant that CommunityKinders Plus, which runs 11 centres aroundFrankston, decided not to run three-year-oldsessions next year.
Following outrage from parents wanting toenrol their children next year and disappoint-ment from some kinder committees, five CKPcentres will continue running three-year-oldkinder next year, but these places will becharged at $400 a term.
CKP CEO Jane Spencer told the Weekly shesympathised with parents facing changes to thekindergarten system.
She said there were other options, such aslong day care with highly qualified teachers forthose who could not afford or find a place andfees for four-year-old kinder would notincrease next year.
‘‘It is very emotional. We have been trying towork out ways to reduce the fees. We have a lotof highly experienced staff and three-year-oldstaff cost a lot of money. We value three-year-
olds but it is becoming an elitist program, onlysome people can afford it. We’re trying to offerdifferent options to different people. Victoria isprobably the only state in Australia which doesthree-year-old kinder.’’
More staff were needed for the new four-year-old sessions as staff had been workinglonger hours without breaks and getting sickmore often in the transitioning system, shesaid.
Former Riviera Preschool committee mem-ber Louise Zedda-Sampson said she was dev-astated the three-year-old sessions would closein a lower-socio economic area.
‘‘Other organisations have listened to com-munity requests and have managed to main-tain both programs. Three-year-old kinder is acompletely different service to day care. It is ashort, gentle introduction to a structuredenvironment. It is an extension of playgroupfor families; that is where kids start to buildrelationships and family’s network and getsupport.’’

Last goodbyeFarewell from the Weekly’s Mornington office crew. The Weekly’s heritage stretches back to 1984 when the Mornington Peninsula Independent was started. The
venture expanded to include the Frankston Independent and the Hastings Independent, which were later joined by the Mornington & Southern Peninsula Mail. The
papers were sold to the Fairfax Community Network in 2006, and rebranded as the Weekly in 2010. Metro Media Publishing took up a 50 per cent stake last year. I
never thought I’d quote singer Celine Dion, but goodbye is indeed the saddest word. The Weekly’s Mornington office closed on Friday and it was bittersweet for us
looking at the montage on the last cover and remembering the stories behind the amazing pictures. We thank our readers for their long-standing support, feedback
and news tips. We’ve been there to share your inspiring stories, challenges and dreams and to document the changes helping shape our community. It’s been a great
ride and all of us, from editorial to sales, take away fantastic memories of our moment in local history. Sandra Bull, Editor — Mornington

Estate divides shireBY SAMANTHA ROBIN
A CHANGE to Mornington PeninsulaShire’s planning scheme aimed at stoppingfurther subdivision in Mt Eliza’s Woodlandestate will likely rest in the hands of PlanningMinister Matthew Guy for approval.
At a council meeting last week, councillorsvoted to adopt the amendment which limitsblock sizes to a minimum of 2500-square-metres.
Residents of the estate are divided overwhether subdivision should be allowed thereand it appears councillors too are divided onthe issue.
Mayor Lynn Bowden was forced to exer-cise her casting vote after councillors weresplit 5-5. Cr David Garnock was absent fromthe meeting.
Changes to the amendment will not be re-exhibited to the public.
Cr Bev Colomb raised the question as towhether there were any legal ramificationsassociated with not re-exhibiting the amend-ment.
Shire manager strategic planning AllanCowley said that as far as he was aware, itwas allowable to pass the amendment with-
out re-exhibiting. ‘‘Mandatory controls needto be put in place to keep that protectionthere,’’ Cr Colomb said.
Further recommendations to the amend-ment mean the shire will also review its streettree policy and implement additionalstrategies to protect the neighbourhoodcharacter of the area.
Cr Andrew Dixon said the C162 amend-ment was not sufficient to protect neighbour-hood character.
‘‘The issue has been plaguing me for awhile. There is a lot to protect in the area butlocking it off doesn’t seem to be a fair deal tome. It is effectively locking the entire area offto my generation.’’
He said the amendment would contributeto making it ‘‘the Beverly Hills of Victoria’’.
‘‘It will become a pocket for the wealthierpeninsulans [sic].’’
The question of bushfire managementoverlays and the right to remove vegetationon properties were also raised.
Mr Cowley responded that human life wasobviously the most important priority, farabove neighbourhood character.
Mr Guy will have the final decision onwhether the amendment will be approved.

Timely supportBottlemart Langwarrin owner Jason Sawan and brother Mark took advantage of the Queen’s
Birthday long weekend to raise money for Langwarrin fire brigade. After talking to members of
the brigade, Jason was inspired to organise the fund-raiser. Mark got on board with his royal role,
dressing up as the Queen in a purple skirt, jacket, wig, robe and crown to promote road safety
and tin rattle the store for donations. Customers also dressed up and the men raised more than
$1350. The brigade will spend the donation on a portable ring cutter tool, which is used to help
release stuck fingers from car doors and plug holes. Brigade captain Glenn Jacob appreciated
the support of the local business.

INBRIEF
Elderly man’s home burgledA man was seen acting suspiciously in the
driveway of an elderly man’s Carrum Downs home
before leaving the premises 40 minutes later with
two canvas bags, filled with stolen goods. Police
said a man entered through the back door of the
85-year-old’s Gamble Road property between
10.30 and 11.45am last Friday week. A camera,
photographs, jewellery, passport and beer and
food from the fridge were stolen. A nearby resident
reported seeing the alleged thief, who was wearing
blue workwear and a high-visibility work top.
Information to Senior Constable Johann Mayer at
Frankston CIU on 9784 5590.
Kathie’s Clowns raise $2000Frankston Police Cycling Club raised almost
$2000 for the Frankston Hospital’s paediatric ward
by taking part in a 520-kilometre relay ride in April.
Eight riders, cycling under the team name Kathie’s
Clowns, rode from Echuca to Port Fairy, with the
assistance of three support crews.
Theft from cars declinesFrankston police have reported a 15 per cent drop
in thefts from cars in the past 12 months. They
reminded the community to keep their car doors
locked and take valuables with them. Detective
Senior Sergeant Stephen Fyffe said Frankston was
one of very few police service areas in the state to
achieve this kind of reduction. He said number
plates were the item most commonly stolen
from vehicles.
Two held over school burglariesA second man has been arrested in relation to a
spate of school burglaries in Frankston, the
Mornington Peninsula and Casey. Laptops and
tablets were stolen during the overnight incidents,
which happened over the past two months. Some
schools were targeted more than once. A 19-year-
old Crib Point man was charged with 16 offences
and the second man, a 23-year-old of
Hastings, was charged with 12 offences over
the thefts.

Job satisfaction: Lynette Elligate with one of her clients. Picture: Gary Sissons
A nice day at the officeThe difference between the best and worst jobs can simply be a matter of perspective, SAMANTHA ROBIN reports
When choosing a career path there aremany aspects to consider. Job security,flexible working hours or a large pay
packet are among many factors to be considered.But have you ever wondered how your job andworking conditions stack up?
American website CareersCast recentlyreleased its annual list of the best and worst jobs.Using data from government agencies it ranked200 jobs from best to worst in terms of five keycriteria: physical demands, work environment,income, stress and hiring outlook.
Surprisingly, the top career was being anactuary — a finance expert specialising in riskanalysis for insurance premiums.
High ranking careers included biomedicalengineer, software engineer, audiologist,financial planner and dental hygienist.
Hearing Life Mornington audiometristLynette Elligate says being able to give people abetter quality of life by helping them to hearagain makes her job extremely rewarding.
“The working environment is good, theworking hours are generally 9-5pm and thereisn’t much overtime,” she says.
The job involves conducting hearing tests andrehabilitation as well as fitting hearing aids,mostly for the elderly.
Mrs Elligate got into the profession by chanceafter working as a receptionist in the field andbeing encouraged to get the necessary qualifica-tions to take on her own clients.
“I wanted to be a nurse originally but realised Ididn’t have the stomach for it.
“This way I am still helping people and I cansee the difference it makes in their lives. Most ofthe time I love what I do.”
The difficulties of the job are dealing withpeople who can’t communicate well, whichMrs Elligate says can be stressful. But she findsthe career rewarding.
“Sometimes clients come in not being able tohear and by the time they leave they can hearagain so that gives you a good feeling.”
At the other end of the scale, careers rated asthe worst jobs included meter reader, dairyfarmer, oil rig worker and actor.
Main Ridge Dairy proprietor and farmerDamien Noxon says he can understand whydairy farming was near the bottom half of the listbut didn’t expect it to be among the six worstjobs.
Early starts, long days and few holidays are allpart and parcel of life on the land.
But Mr Noxon says there are many positives.‘‘Most people would see 5.30am starts as a
negative but I see it as a positive, I love that partof the day.
‘‘I chose dairy farming as a way to sustain aliving off the family property. It is a verysatisfying pursuit working off the land and withthe animals.’’
Mr Noxon milks goats and uses the milk forcheese which he sells from his property as well asretail and wholesale.
He also offers tours of his farm, where people
can see all aspects of production from thepaddock to the plate.
While not your typical dairy farmer, he admitsthere are challenges facing the dairy farmingindustry in Australia. ‘‘Dairy farmers in Australiaare struggling big time due to financial hardship.It is hard work: the typical dairy farmer wouldstart at 5.30am and finish at 6pm, 365 daysa year.
‘‘I probably wouldn’t recommend it as a career.The return would not be there for most people. Itis a lifestyle thing and you really have to love it tomake it work.
‘‘I wouldn’t say I have the worst job in theworld. If you have the right mix of scenarios tomake it work it can be a good job.’’
Mark McCrindle, from McCrindle Research,says when considering a career path it is import-ant to move into a industry that is expanding.
“One thing people need to think about is mov-
ing into growing industries rather than shrinkingones — retail and manufacturing industries areunder strain at the moment,” he says.
“We will have multi-careers in our lifetime andbeing able to adapt and up-skill is important.”
Mr McCrindle says there is no one perfectcareer. “It’s about finding the best fit for eachperson, based on skills and temperament.
“We can’t future-proof our careers by choos-ing an industry for life, but by keeping an eye ontrends and keeping skills honed we can respondto what is needed.’’
He says career developments, however, aren’texclusively linked to technology.
‘‘There is a massive need for traditional trades,and with population growth this will continue tobe an area of high demand.”
The top search results in Google are for jobsthat pay well, involve travel, make a differenceand help people — indicating that money is not
the sole motivation for jobseekers.“The top job of actuary for a lot of people
would be a nightmare. It might pay well and is ina growth area but it is still a desk-bound jobdealing with numbers. While actor is near thebottom of the list, many people in the industrylove it beyond anything else.”
Mary Toogood’s profession, service techni-cian, wasn’t on the list but she says it’s somethingmore people should consider.
Removing and rotating sanitary bins may beperceived by some as among the worst jobs, butshe says it’s under-rated. ‘‘I don’t have to pay formy travel expenses or phone and I can work thehours I want,’’ she says.
Having previously owned a hairdressing salon,she says her current job is much easier and lessstressful.
‘‘Try being a hairdresser and having to removenits from someone’s hair and constantly dealingwith people’s problems.’’
Mrs Toogood rotates the sanitary disposal binsfor large and small companies on the Morning-ton Peninsula from Mt Eliza to Portsea. Her roleincludes about 30 jobs a day and she drives about1000 kilometres a week.
Mrs Toogood gets up early and beats traffic bystarting at 5.30am but is finished by 1.30pm.
Running up and down stairs keeps her fit. ‘‘It’sgreat exercise, it saves me having to pay for agym membership.’’
She says people are especially nice to herbecause of her profession. ‘‘They think herecomes the poor sanitary removal lady, I’d betterbe nice to her. I get to meet some great people.’’
When people ask what she does for a living shejokingly responds: ‘‘I do period furniture.
‘‘I don’t have any qualms, it’s a part of life.’’
PROUDTRADITION
NEWSPAPER reporter was the worst-ratedjob on the CareersCast list. The ability toaccess news instantly from smartphonesand computers has eroded the tradition ofopening a newspaper delivered to yourdoorstep and reading the latest headlinesas you eat breakfast.
For this newspaper reporter, it is sad tosee that tradition gradually slip away, andeven sadder that this article is appearing inthe last edition of Frankston Weekly.
We will miss our readers, letters to theeditor and conversations with thecommunity about their trials and triumphs.
My colleagues and I have gone to greatlengths to bring you the most relevant,interesting and thought-provoking stories inthe community.
We hope you have enjoyed our articlesand appreciate your support.
As I bid you farewell I can only urge you tocontinue to be curious about the worldaround you and engaged in the community.
Thank you; it has been a pleasure.— Samantha Robin

Living with MS?Multiple Sclerosis is a chronic disease that aff ects the central nervous system, often striking young adults at a time when they’re leading busy lives. It’s estimated that more than 23,000 Australians are living with MS, with three out of every four people diagnosed being women. While a cure is yet to be found, there are a number of treatments available, including oral and injectable therapies that could help manage certain forms of the disease.If you’re living with MS, talk to your doctor about treatment options that might be right for you.

FRANKSTON Peninsula Heat captain MattChasemore has refused to concede star EnglishmanMatt Lineker will not play for the club next season.
Lineker has relocated to Geelong and has indic-ated to the Heat that he is highly unlikely to returnnext season.
But Chasemore says the opening batsman willnot play for another Premier Cricket club andwould still be chased by the Heat.
‘‘As far as I’m aware he won’t play for Geelongor another club,’’ he said.
‘‘He will have to drive from Geelong — he did agreat job — and I’m going to push all the boundar-ies to try and get him to come back.
‘‘It is a big commitment for him to drive fromGeelong for training on Tuesdays and Thursdaysand he knows my philosophies about not training.
‘‘He’s a great player and we’d love to have himback.’’
Chasemore has confirmed Mornington Penin-sula Cricket Association star Justin Grant is firmlyin his plans for next season.
Grant signed with the Heat last month afterdominating for Mt Eliza last summer in Provincialdivision. ‘‘I’m excited because I’ve heard greatthings about him,’’ he said.
‘‘I’ve spoken to him and he seems like a reallygood guy — hopefully, the local comp will under-stand that he won’t come in and dominate.
‘‘It can take a few seasons to click but he did playa second XI game for Victoria, so he can obviouslyplay cricket.’’
The Heat have also lured home-grown talentMick McClean back to Jubilee Park after a stingwith rival Premier Cricket club Camberwell.
McClean scored 636 runs at 42 for the Magpies’2nd XI last season but failed to fire in the senior
line-up with 63 runs in five innings last summer.‘‘He went over to Camberwell because of work
and now he’s come back to try and fill a battingspot,’’ Chasemore said.
‘‘He’s a Frankston boy and his dad’s our juniordevelopment co-ordinator and he’s coming back tohave another really good go at it.
‘‘I’ve spoken to some other batsmen but nothingis confirmed yet.’’
The Heat are seeking sponsors for next season.For information, call the club on 9789 3084.
