...continued from Front Page

You can comment on both projects by completing an online survey at: http://communitymaps.ghd.com/surfcoastshire/easternreserve/

Your feedback will help inform the development of a revised masterplan for Eastern Reserve and provide a basis for considering the future use of Hesse Street Reserve. Survey feedback will be updated weekly and available to view here.

At the community consultation session held last Wednesday 26th March, around 30-40 local residents dropped by to review the 2007 Masterplan, and add their ideas on what still needs to be done plus new ideas for what else should be included.

Some of the suggestions raised;

• renovate the tennis courts and clubhouse in conjunction with a new Scouts Hall, with funds from a joint Scouts, Tennis Australia and Shire project.

• a second bowling green (land was allegedly reserved for this purpose in 1987 by then Winchelsea Shire)

• add a playground near the tennis courts and/or the netball courts

• a meandering walkway from tennis courts to Hesse Street pavement

• relocate and renovate the cricket nets

• open up the rear of the Eastern Reserve new buildings for more parking, better access and disability spaces.

Council has already moved to acquire land for the eventual building of a second oval or cricket ground, as can be seen by the shaded area on the Master Plan. The Victorian Lands Minister is currently considering the proposal.

The Master Plan review and survey are being run with the assistance of consultants GHD, an international network of engineers, architects and environmental scientists.

Thursday 27th February saw the beginning of Winchelsea Probus Club’s monthly outings.We kicked off at 7-30 am for the long trip through Melbourne to Woori Yallock in the Yarra Valley to Rayners Stone Fruit Farm. It was an interesting trip as I for one had not been on the Eastern Freeway before nor experienced the Mullum Mullum Tunnel. It seems equally as long if not longer than the Burnley. Despite all the critics Melbourne’s roadways are a marked improvement on what they were years ago. Trouble is,we on the western side still desperately need another river crossing, but enough politics.

We stopped for morning tea in Williamstown where we experienced something very strange- RAIN- Finally we arrived at Rayners and after a look around the amazing array of jams, pickles, chutneys and fresh fruit we all hopped aboard a tractor driven train, for want of a better description and took off with the owner of the farm, Len.

He drove us around the orchard where they boast about producing over 300 fruit varieties. Many known to us but a few exotics which they are trialling with great success. The farm is in a sheltered area with good climate and little frost so they can produce different varieties all year

round and pick every day. He stopped at the end of a row of trees where our first tasting was a delicious plum so juicy we all had it dripping down our hands and clothes!!

And so he proceeded and we tasted delicious peaches, nectarines, apricots etc until we wondered where we were going to put lunch. Len had many amusing stories about the trials and tribulations of being a fruit farmer, the usual pests ie rabbits, kangaroo, birds are a constant problem but mostly live in harmony with the humans. He even gave Lyn Davis an unexpected treat of a ride in a “cherry picker”.

After a most interesting tour we enjoyed a delicious lunch of home made pies or quiche and delectable scones jam and

cream for those who could fit them in!! After lunch we were shown the kitchen where they hold bottling classes and bottle much of their own fruit.

A most enjoyable day with the usual quiet trip home full of nodding heads. Many thanks to John our trusty driver from Hutchensons and Gwen and Les for organising another wonderful day...

CommunicationSince the establishment of a local weekly paper, the Winchelsea Star, communications have improved.

Barney Parsons tells of his job as Copy Manager for the Star.

“To give Joan Worland relief from her duty as Copy Manager for a month”, I took on the role. Joan found it difficult to get involved in the role again and as she had other jobs on. It was a huge task to follow in her footsteps as she had done it so well for 12 years.

Joan and I often conferred both while she was Copy Manager and later when I did it. Our main question was ‘Got anything we can put in as we are short of news’. Often with one or two worthwhile articles and a flurry of phone calls, a little prod and up came a paper worthy of any small town’s weekly newspaper.

Sunday nights came quickly. The job of putting together the news, sport, advertisements and ‘fillers’ in some format, ready for the Sub-Editors, was often concerning. I knew well that the Repertory Society needed to have something in, Joe Blo needed to advertise their function, football news would be late but essential and so on. Then a phone call to ‘keep me half a page, will have it to the typist by noon’ was oh so common.

Thanks must go to the ‘Subbies’ for the hours put into their job so conscientiously in order to make the typist’s work as easy as possible. Counting words to establish the number of lines needed for the article firstly and allocating a place on the page, aiming to get the more important articles early in the publication. Photos were also important to place them with their article - often caused headaches. ‘You cannot have photos back to back, they don’t print’, was the order of the day.

Where there is a down side there always has to be an up side. Work completed and that often got quite late, a cuppa and a chat made it all well worth while.

As part of the original Self Study team, the lack of local information was to me one of the most important aspects, so

the Star aimed to fill this void. Council meetings, sports presentations and everything in between were important, so I aimed to fill the role of news collector and photographer. Sincere thanks to

everyone who

made the job as Copy Manager manageable. I must conclude with a special mention again of the work done by Joan Worland”.

Joan Worland has provided the following list of people that she remembers as having contributed over the last twenty years to the successful operation of the Winchelsea Star.

EDITORS Alec Wainwright, Pam Barron, Julie Cornwall (Hayes), Theresa Napthine, Anna Jennings.

SUB-EDITORS Toni Worland, Jan Keane, Stewart Mathison, Peter Walsh, Alison Parish, Wendy Hole, Kevin Caine, Judy Lewis, Betty Terrier, Joan Worland, Tim Bracher, Jon Breedveld, Steve Funston, Pru O’Mara, Marg McDonald, Morven Warner, Barbara Walters, Jim Fields, Judy Lewis, Lorraine Armstrong, Florence Vesey, Dianne Porter, Jan Budge.

SECRETARIES Bob Keane, Helen Lord, Len Monk (Interim secretary), Maureen Webb

(Secretary to the Editor), Pauline Partridge (Secretary to the Editorial Board), Dorothy Bracher, Jon Breedveld, Barry Doyle, Jim Bracher, John Rowley (Current).

COPY MANAGER Joan Worland 12 years, Barney Parsons, Robyn Janssen

TYPISTS Suzanne Warner (Plunkett), Barbara Schroeter, Judy Kelly, Wendy Hole, Joan Caldow, Margaret Reid, Pam Barron, Ross Jennings.

TREASURERS John East, Barry Doyle.

PRODUCTION MANAGERS Stewart Mathison, (Stewart is the longest service officer with about 18 years as Production Manager). Harry Swinson.

DISTRIBUTION Bess Lewer, Margaret and Geoff Walker, Kevin Bennett, Jack Stanesby, Alec McFarlane, Tracy Drayton, Vince Fedelle.

COLLATORS Senior Citizens Club members and Armytage Court ladies.

PRINTERS Merryl Hill, Geoff Orchard, Pam Barron.

PHOTOS Peter Koster, Robyn Janssen, Vivian Swinson, Ricky Budge.

ADVERTISING MANAGER Mick O’Mara, Graham Miller, Katy Kelly.

In conclusion, Theresa Napthine sums up:

“The Oxford Dictionary tells us that ‘A community is a body of people living in one place or district, a group with common interests, fellowship’. The Winchelsea Star has measured up to this criteria.

Twenty years ago, we, the members of our community accepted the local paper as part of our life style. We rely on local information for reports of past events, sporting, academic, cultural activities, birth, deaths and marriages etc. All integral facets of a rural town and proud of it.

We also claim something better than most country towns - we publish the “Winchelsea Star” every week..

Letters to the EditorDear Editor.

Open letter to C.E.O , Mayor and Councillors of Surf Coast Shire.

I am inquiring why Winchelsea Community has not been included in the following shire publications or open community consultation.

1. Bike Safe Victoria overview / planning.

.2.Disabled access and Accessibility maps ie. as prepared and printed for Torquay , Lorne ,Aireys inlet , Anglesea etc

3.Community meeting 26 Feb for Hesse Street Reserve and Eastern Reserve

existing master plan date 2007 includes Winchelsea Common why is it not included in 2014 review for public information and input.

4.Disabled parking and traffic management plan for Hub Eastern Reserve.

5.Traffic management plan for main shopping area.

6.Traffic management plan for relocation of public toilets to include safe access to swimming pool , Willis St and tourist information.

Vic Roads dual highway project through Winchelsea is not an excuse for council to disregard its responsibility to ratepayers of Winchelsea (especially the YOUNG and ELDERLY).

The Barwon Hotel have made good use of their old menu boards by contracting a local Anglesea lad (Tamas Leeman) to paint some landscapes on them. There has been much discussion among the customers since they were completed, with comments ranging from the specific detail to the origin of the subject matter.

The artwork is a focal point for the main dining room, adding character and old world charm to the Bistro and is well worth a look next time you’re nearby.

World Day of Prayer Friday the 7th The inter-church World Day of Prayer service at 2:30 pm at St Thomas Church. This year the service is brought to us by the Women of Egypt and is based around the theme, ‘Streams in the Desert.’

The following is an excerpt from the service introduction that has been written by the World Day of Prayer committee in Egypt.

“Streams in the Desert In many minds Biblical Egypt is associated with the Pharaohs who treated the Israelites

as slaves until Moses led them out to freedom. Pharaoh’s daughter also played a heroic role in the Biblical story of salvation, when she dared to contradict her father’s command by rescuing the infant Moses from drowning and bringing him up as her own son. When the Baby Jesus was threatened by Herod’s infanticide, Egypt was a safe place of refuge for him and the Holy family.

In early Christianity St Mark organized the first Egyptian church and established the first Theological school. The Egyptian church sent missionaries to other parts of the world, including Ireland, Holland, Switzerland, Nubia, the Sudan, and Ethiopia.

Today the Church in Egypt is still strong. In fact World day of Prayer is a wonderful yearly celebration for Egyptian families on the first day of March.”

Why don’t you come along to the service this Friday at 2:30 pm and join with us and the women of Egypt in prayer for their country.

God bless, Wendy Gravolin

John Bumford

This week at St Thomas’

News from St John’sThank you to Father Philip Gambin who celebrated Mass with us on Saturday night. We appreciated having Father Gambin join us in the hall to enjoy the pancakes, ice cream and homemade strawberry jam or maple syrup on offer, along with a cuppa.

Thank you to everyone who helped us in serving the pancakes, cuppa etc as well as washing up afterwards. Many hands make light work as the saying goes. Well done Sam who helped us, great to have one of our young ones joining in the house work, and Father Gambin proved that he knows his way around the kitchen.

Father Gambin will be back on Ash Wednesday, 5th of March, to celebrate

Mass at 5p.m. to commence the season of Lent.

Sacramental Program. Will commence at 3.45pm – 4.45pm in St John’s hall, on Wednesday the 5th of March, we look forward to seeing the children and their parents for the first session. A cuppa will be available in the hall for parents and refreshments for the children.

We are very greatful for John Bumford who comes along and plays the organ during our Masses, and John has kindly offered to play our hymns before the start of Mass so that we can come along and receive some encouragement to improve our vocal skills. Unfortunately St John’s

does not have a strong vocal presence in our parish. Please feel welcome to join with John in this wonderful offer.

World Day of PrayerFriday the 7th of March at 2.30pm, will be held at St Thomas’s in Barwon Terrace.

The theme this year is “Streams in the Desert” and the service has been prepared by the World Day of Prayer Committee from Egypt. Afternoon tea will follow.

Angus Jennings - Prep

I played prehistoric park.

Matilda Salmon - Grade 1/2

Tomorrow after school my mum and I are going to Hamilton to get my flower girl dress. I am going to see my Aunty Sue. Then I am going to have a sleepover at my Aunty Sue’s house. Then the next day we are going to a party with my Aunty Sue. Then we are going home from Kat’s party.

GOLD RUSH by Cooper Cameron - Grade 3/4

Hi my name is Cooper. I am a bushranger. I like stealing at night because most people are sleeping. I hunted for gold in Melbourne. I wanted to become rich. I did this in 1851.

On a fine night I saw a family hiding gold in some cupboards. Once they went to sleep I tiptoed there without waking them up. Once I stole the precious gold and ran the whole way home. I hid the gold in some sacks and had some snacks and went to sleep.

When I woke up the gold was gone! “Oh no where’s the gold?” “It can’t have gone very far”.Soon I started looking I heard policemen but realised I was in a

trap! “Stand down soldier. Oh no he’s a bushranger. Arrest him!’

I was soon tied to a small boat sailing away to a small island. I heard a crash the boat sank from hitting aniceberg. I had no escape!

All children should learn to play sport by Hayley Steed - Grade 5/6

What are your children doing right now? Are they watching TV, or playing their IPods? Well if they are get them outside into the fresh air to learn some sport.

I’m worried about the amount of children who don’t play sport. Aren’t you?

Firstly, I think it is extremely important to learn sport at a young age so you are fit and healthy throughout your life. Sport makes you stronger and being strong is very useful as you grow up into adulthood. Plus if you aren’t fit and healthy and don’t play sport you will probably be obese and you will get teased which is very upsetting.

Secondly, Sport is very useful because it makes you understand the importance of responsibility and respect for others which can help you later in life when you are wanting to get a job. Some people could become a sport captain at school which could also help to achieve a good

job. If you don’t play sport and you aren’t fit and healthy you will probably be stuck working at a supermarket checkout for the rest of your life with minimal life skills and the willingness to work with others.

Thirdly, not only is sport educational and good for your body but it is extremely fun because you meet new friends. Plus you get to spend extra time with them. It is good because you can learn new skills and play with your friends at the same time.

Fourthly, if you want you can even compete in competitions or perform in concerts. You can receive rewards like trophies, medals and ribbons, which you can be proud of and your parents will be to. You can sit all your achievements in a trophy cabinet and make your family look at them all the time. This can give people the sense of accomplishment and the feeling of achieving their own goal.

Finally, I believe that it is really important for all children to learn a sport because it is fun, good for your body and will help you later in life. So get outside right now and have some fun in the sun!

Emilys Health Corner

Healthy ChildrenHave you ever wondered why more and more children are starting to see chiropractors? Isn’t Chiropractic just for ‘sore necks and backs’ and‘when we get older’? These are valid questions, and the answer is simple: whether we have a large spine or a tiny little spine, if that spine is creating nerve distress then our amazing bodies may not operate smoothly….

So how do ‘little kids’ get nerve irritation or nerve distress you may ask. Well think about how many times kids fall on their backsides, off bikes, down stairs, off the couches, sleep on their tummies, slouch in their chairs, carry heavy back packs, have prolonged poor posture ( playing with

their iphones, pads and pods!) just to name a few of the ways!

To give your child the best start at life, and to prevent problems arising in later years, it’s a great step to get them checked by a chiropractor. While research to support how effective chiropractic for children is not yet extensive, parental satisfaction with results achieved is compelling in its own right.

10 reasons parents take their children to see a chiropractor:

1. To encourage good neural plasticity (brain and nerve development).

2. To support their child’s overall health and wellbeing.

3. To help strengthen their child’s immunity and potentially reduce the incidence of colds, ear-aches and general illness.

4. To assist with colic and Irritable Baby Syndrome.

5. To help with asthma, breathing difficulties and allergies.

6. To encourage good spinal posture.

7. To help improve their child’s ability to concentrate.

8. To assist with behavioural disorders.

9. To help alleviate digestive problems.

10. To assist with bed-wetting and sleep issues.

Submissions to The StarThe Winchelsea Star welcomes YOUR news, information, articles and items for publication. This newspaper aims to reflect its own community.

Naturally, any article submitted for printing must comply with legal requirements such as for libel, discrimination, racism etc. Ideally, submissions fit within one page (allowing for adverts) and at most two pages. With a photo or two, this is around 700-800 words per page. Photos make for a much better article - please do not edit, crop or retouch photos, the Star team will do this as required. If you are able to ‘resize’ the photo(s), aim for around 1000 pixels (px) for the longest side. Many phones and computers can automatically resize photos when being emailed, be sure NOT to choose the small (or “email”) size as this is too small to use in a printed page.Note also that there is no need to submit carefully formatted and laid out

documents, as all formatting is stripped out when the article is imported into The Star. Please also note that any submissions in hard copy (ie. printed or hand-written) or ‘locked’ formats will incur delays as they have to be typed and/or scanned - the Sunday deadline applies to material that can be readily copied-and-pasted. Please send the article wordage separately from the article photos and images. In other words, when submitting an article, attach a document of words only and then also attach the associated images. Include image captions at the end of the article.

Tennis elbow is one of the most common injuries sustained in racquet sports and can afflict both the professional and social player. It is also common amongst trades people whose occupation requires gripping activities such as the use of tools. Tennis elbow has other medical diagnostic labels such as lateral epicondylitis, extensor tendinitis or extensor tendinopathy.

Basically this injury is an overuse or repetitive strain injury of the forearm muscles at the point where their common tendon attaches to the lateral epicondyle of the humerus bone at the elbow.

The onset of symptoms can be slow and gradual or can happen quickly - often with a miss timed backhand or over exuberant smash. In these cases where the pain comes on quickly there will often have been an underlying problem brewing but not symptomatic.

Usually in the early stages it will cause no pain during sport but will ache and be tender after cooling down or the next day.

In more advanced cases it will restrict playing, causing reduced power and grip strength and will even be sore doing simple things like pouring a drink.

Management of this injury needs a multi-faceted approach. The cause needs to be identified and modified or changed. The common contributing factors are changing racquets or having a grip that is too large or small, over training or a big increase in playing load too quickly or poor technique.

Other treatments that help to settle this condition down are ultrasound, electrotherapy, anti-inflammatory medication (either tablets or gel), massage and ice.

A regular stretching program should be undertaken for prevention and in rehabilitation when this injury is sustained. Later, a specific strengthening regime should be prescribed.

Persistent cases sometimes respond well to cortisone injection but an athlete must never have more than three injections as it can destroy the tendon. A tennis elbow strap can help to reduce the load on the tendon insertion and allow continuation of sport.

A Physiotherapist is able to provide the appropriate assessment, diagnosis and treatment for tennis elbows.

If you require physiotherapy, please give our Colac Clinic, located at 26 Miller Street, a call on 5232 2400 and make a time to see one of our committed and caring Physiotherapists. We also offer Podiatry, Massage Therapy, Exercise Physiology, Hydrotherapy and Clinical Pilates at our Colac Clinic.

Two musicians called Robert will come together for a once only performance of music for cello and piano at Barwon Park in Winchelsea on Sunday 23 March.R2R: The Two Roberts features Julliard-trained cellist Robert Ekselman and Team of Pianists partner Robert Chamberlain, playing works by Marias, Stravinsky, Ravel and Rachmaninoff.
