This week our staff and I have been eagerly planning for school holiday programs, our

monthly digital technology sessions, our upcoming spring markets and our future events

for 2020.

I’d like to warmly welcome you all to connect with me and share your ideas on what

you’d like to see upcoming in Wagin on a community, social and business level, your

input is valued.

During Mariana’s time as Coordinator, her goal has been to accommodate a range of

useful, informative, accredited and upskilling programs for Youth (school-age children),

Mums and bubs, local and surrounding businesses, seniors, training and development

programs and on a high note community service, where raising awareness in multiple

situations could better the life of someone's loved one.

Mariana has been employed at the Wagin CRC since 2012 and has worked in a variety

of areas throughout the establishment. Mariana would like to thank the wonderful

committee for their input into the Wagin CRC, their passion, support and drive to

develop our community towards bigger and better improvements. Their time is valuable

and highly appreciated. So a huge thank you to you all again. A huge

acknowledgement to all the past committees; with the experience of being a

Coordinator, I have understood the importance of the committee, and the huge

impact that having resourceful, useful and engaging committee members has made

to help us drive and direct the CRC's improvements; we would not have this brilliant

establishment if it wasn't for all of the past members as well. To all the wonderful and

challenging staff I have worked with and managed over the years up to the present;

I’ve had an amazing ride, it hasn't all been roses, but I'm sure we have all learnt some

valuable, memorable and life lessons. I started as a caterpillar and have developed

into a butterfly on this amazing journey I have experienced.

Ka kite a koutou ano, (Take care and see you all again)

LIFE MEMBERSHIP RECOGNITION The Wagin Football Club has recognised their long serving sports

trainer, Sharon Roderick, with Life Membership. Sharon was awarded

the Club’s highest honour at a glittering presentation night at the

Darkan Town Hall. With her family present, it was a very special night

and occasion for Sharon who was presented her life membership

medal by fellow life member and club stalwart Stuart Johansson.

Sharon commenced as a volunteer sports trainer with the Club in

1997, other than having four years off when she had her two boys

Ben and Daniel, she has been the main stay in providing Wagin

football players excellent sports training services. Sharon has not only

been a trainer for the Wagin League and Reserve teams but she also

has provided training services for the Wagin Junior teams over many

years.

Sharon’s dedication and commitment over seventeen plus years as

a trainer for the Wagin Football Club is unparalleled and she

becomes the Club’s first sports trainer to be awarded with Life

Membership. It was a very popular life membership

acknowledgement by the Committee, one that was greatly

deserved.

MINERS STRIKE IT LUCKY AGAIN

There has been another lucky strike at the Beta

Hunt gold mine in WA’s Goldfields - 12 months

after the Kambalda mine made global headlines

with the discovery of spectacular and rare gold

specimens.

Since Saturday, 1,750 ounces of coarse gold has

been recovered from 274 kilograms of rock - worth

about $3.9 million at today’s gold price.

While most of WA's gold mining industry is lucky to

see specks of the precious metal, the miners at

Beta Hunt have encountered large clusters of

visible gold.

It is the third lucky strike at Beta Hunt since last

September's lounge room-sized area which was called the Father's Day Vein, named after the day it was

found.

Last year's motherlode produced more than 27,000 ounces - the equivalent of about 760 kilograms of gold -

which made Canada's RNC Minerals more than $40 million and saved the mine from closing.

In June, another rich pocket contained about 987 ounces of coarse gold in 238 kilograms of rock - worth

about $2.2 million.

The latest find was made by truck driver Chris Lemonis, who spotted some large chunks of visible gold while

emptying 45 tonnes of rock out of his tray.

Senior mine geologist Zaf Thanos said he received a call over the radio and the team went to investigate.

"As the truckie was leaving he caught a glint of something he thought was gold ... we've come out for a look

and we found a piece weighing over 100kg," Mr Thanos told the ABC.

It took three men to lift the gold-covered rock onto the back of a ute and the ABC watched as it weighed

in at 128 kilograms on a set of bathroom scales.

WAGIN SHEEP DOG TRIALS

BY NAN LIOYD Wagin had a new trial this year, run by Central Districts

Sheepdog Club. Centrals run their annual trial in

conjunction with the Wagin Woolorama in March but

this trial was run in conjunction with the Wagin

Gymkhanarana.

The Gymkhanarana is a fairly new event which also

featured a dog and handler obstacle race as well as

many horse events. The next edition of the Wool Press

will contain a write up covering the events of

Gymkhanarana.

WA had experienced some warmer than usual

temperatures of late, but for this trial the temperatures

plummeted to below average. Wednesday before the

trial it was wet cold and miserable. On the first day of

trialling, although the rain had cleared, the max

temperature hovered around 10 degrees. The next two

nights saw some chilling frosts followed by slightly

warmer days, but all in all it was quite good trialling

weather thankfully, as the sheep were not easy.

They were 18 month old merinos with about 2 months

wool on them, and they were very hard to settle. They

could run very fast and did so regularly. They would also

split and due to this there were many crosses as they ran

around behind the dogs before the dog could decide

what to do. Getting past the winding pegs was difficult,

as they made every effort to get back to their mates

behind the fence. Many battles ensured here, some

winners and many losers. The kelpies handled them

better, with two wins, two seconds and a third.

The open

final was

an

exciting

affair, and

came right down to the wire. There was a tie after the

first round with the third dog only a point behind. Peter

Gorman eventually taking out the event on the last

run of the day.

Thanks to Wagin Grainfeeds, Midalia Steel and Chris

English for their sponsorship of this event.

In the Novice there were 39 runs with 12 scores, the

improver saw 36 runs and 13 scores and the open had

60 runs with 29 scores.

LIVESTOCK TRUCKS HIT HIGHWAYS The WA Livestock and Rural Transporters Association says it expects to see

an increase of sheep trucks on the state's roads this week.

The Northern Hemisphere summer ban on live sheep exports ends on the

22nd of September.

Animals are now being carted to feed lots near Perth in preparation for

shipping.

Association president David Fyfe says an increase in trucks will be

noticeable.

"There could be 60-70 truck movements, they'll be coming from all over the state but there'll be a

quite noticeable amount of sheep on the main highways into the city which, for us, is great," he

said.

BALINGUP TAVERN FIRE

A neighbour raised the alarm just after 4am on Monday

morning, potentially saving the life of the manager who

lives on site and was asleep.

15 fire fighters battled the flames and the blaze was

extinguished at around 7:30am.

Police say that while the fire is still under investigation,

there appears to be no suspicious circumstances.

It's expected the tavern won't re-open for at least six

months.

ARE YOU 'GRANDCHILDLESS'?

If your children don't have kids, does it bother you?

In 2017 the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) estimated that sometime between 2023 and 2029

the number of couples living without children would overtake the number of those living with them.

Australian woman Elizabeth Cook longs for a grandchild, so much so that more than two years ago

she signed up to Find a Grandparent, an organisation that matches want-to-be grandparents with

families who do not have any.

With the forever declining numbers in grand children is this an avenue you’d be whiling to take to

fill the void?

MEDIA RELEASE 26 September 2019

Activists face jail

Federal Member for O’Connor Rick Wilson has welcomed new laws that will protect farming families from

activist invasions.

The Criminal Code Amendment (Agricultural Protection) 2019 introduces new offences for using the internet

to incite trespass, theft or property damage on agricultural land.

“Militant animal activists have invaded farms across the country trespassing, threatening and harassing

farming families, including in O’Connor,” Mr Wilson said.

“This Bill makes it a criminal offence to publish material, via a carriage service like the internet, if you intend to

incite trespass, property damage or theft on agricultural land.

“Animal activists who use the personal information of family farmers to incite trespass risk imprisonment of up

to five years.

“The Morrison Government is serious about deterring those who want to disrupt and intimidate our farmers,

fishers and foresters in their homes and on their properties.”

Agriculture Minister Bridget McKenzie, said anyone convicted of the offence would face up to five years in

prison.

“Australians expect the farmers who feed and clothe us – and many millions around the world – should not

be harassed, or worse, as they go about their work,” Minister McKenzie said.

“The time has come for activists to understand that they can’t just descend on someone’s home and place

of work, interfere with their business and steal their animals.

“We’re not banning protests—we’re banning militant animal activists from inciting others to break the law.”

The Government amended the Bill to include adding wood processing facilities to coverage under the Bill, a

move which has been welcomed by The National Farmers’ Federation (NFF) and the Australian Forest

Products Association (AFPA).

The Bill will be presented for Royal Assent through the regular process.

Warrior Wellbeing Article

THE BLOKE WHISPERER … (Talking to Blokes About

Health And Wellbeing)

Getting blokes to talk openly and frankly about health issues can sometimes be a struggle,

especially if they feel like they can’t show vulnerability, or they don’t want to worry others with their

problems. Whilst I’m the first to admit that talking about fishing and footy is great, we need to be

open to broadening the range of topics that we are happy to cover in general conversation.

The importance of this is bought into sharp focus when you see that blokes are on the wrong side

of the ledger in terms of all the preventable cancers, cardiovascular disease, suicide rates,

workplace accidents/deaths and motor vehicle trauma. There’s some serious stuff we need to talk

about, but currently, many of us aren’t!

Sometimes when trying to address this, the old adage about getting in touch with our feminine side

gets wheeled out, but it’s important that we realise that men and women are hard-wired differently.

We communicate differently, show our emotions differently, take risks and like to win, however if a

bloke feels in a safe place he will talk. The following are some useful tips when chatting to blokes:

Shoulder to Shoulder Talk: Blokes tend to feel much more comfortable talking side by side.

A shared task or sport is often a great starting point. A few explanations have been offered

as to why this is our favoured stance: Blokes can find direct eye contact challenging; They

place less emphasis on reading someone’s face and tend to take others by their word.

Steer Away from the Language of Failure: Blokes can be quite sensitive to turns of phrase like

“suffering from” or “needing help”. This to them may suggest that in some way they are failing

themselves or their family. Therefore rephrasing “seeking help” to “taking control” may help

your cause.

Don’t Make it a Big Conversation: If you are concerned for a bloke in your life, it can be

tempting to prepare yourself for one big chat. This can feel like an ambush and be

counterproductive. Instead, mention health and wellbeing in passing, even if initially it is

framed around someone else. Once the topic is introduced, let it run its course. It may take

a couple of conversations to explore or explain your concerns and get him talking

comfortably.

Persist: If it’s worrying you, it’s probably worrying him. A bloke’s initial reluctance to engage

may just reflect a nervousness around the subject matter. A second or third approach won’t

go astray. After that it’s probably time to give him some space with the option to take up the

offer when it suits him.

Mr Fix It: Guys tend to be task oriented and prefer that approach when talking about and

tackling problems. They want to have a clear purpose, therefore a general discussion around

feelings just doesn’t cut it! Conversations that are goal oriented and have a clear direction

are the most effective.

Of course, every bloke is different, but if we start to play to our strengths rather than highlighting our

weaknesses, inevitably the lines of communication will become stronger. If we can achieve this

then the health and wellbeing outcomes for men can only improve.

FOX BAITING PROJECT— PREVIOUS 1080 TRAINING ACCEPTED

We have had some feedback regarding confusion around the fox bait project we currently have running.

If you have previously completed your 1080 accreditation, you will NOT be required to do so again to take advantage of this program.

You should have a number that goes with your accreditation, and you can quote that on the EOI form which will inform the organisers that you don’t require further training.

If we can generate further interest in local fox baiting, we will be looking to hold a training event in Woodanilling for those who need it.

Please see the expression of interest form over the page, complete and return to either [email protected] or the email listed on the form.

SWCC Regenerative Agriculture Survey

Help guide future funding investment

Regenerative farming is a holistic concept that is proposed nationally and internationally to transition agriculture to

becoming a truly sustainable industry. The term “regenerative” is more accurate than “sustainable” because the practice regenerates and stabilizes soils, increases biodiversity, captures carbon, improves the water cycle and provides ecosystem

services, by reducing or eliminating many conventional/industrial farming practices such as excessive ploughing and the

widespread over-use of inorganic fertilisers and pestic ides (herbicides, insecticides, fungic ides etc.).

Regenerative agriculture is one way in which farmers can remain profitable by

ensuring their farm products meet global demands, which is why the State

government through the Department of Primary Industries and Resource

Development (DPIRD / DAFWA) has started looking into these practices.

The seven regional natural resource management (Landcare) organisations in WA

have been funded by StateNRM to conduct this survey to find out what the key

barriers are that might stop farmers and others from actually taking up regenerative

agriculture. The results will be provided to DPIRD to help guide their future priority

research.

The survey is anonymous and does not ask for any personal or financial information.

It is only two pages long and should not take more than 10 minutes to complete.

Thank you in advance for your input into the survey, which will help inform State

investment into the sector

We would welcome your input into helping guide investment into APPROPRIATE

areas by having your say at the following address:

has had a tough

season losing 2

crucial players in

Ata Elliot and Kristy

Ball to injuries during

the year, but were

able to pull up

players from the A2

team during the season. The girls came out

firing and left Pingelly stunned in first quarter to

be up by 6 goals, however Pingelly crawled

their way back to level the scores by 3 quarter

time. The final quarter was going to be a

tough battle and unfortunately the girls

couldn’t get the win going down by only 2

WAGIN MEN’S B GRADE HOCKEY GRAND FINAL

BY TRAVIS HAMERSLEY Wagin Men’s B grade took on their long term rivals, Warriors in the Grand Final on the weekend.

This is the third time in a row these two teams have played each other in the Grand Final with Wagin coming

out victorious on the previous two occasions. This year though, Warriors had a new look, younger team.

Wagin went into this game as the underdogs as they had to fight their way into the grand final game from

4th position. A gutsy fightback from 3 nil down vs All Blacks, to win 5-4 got Wagin into the Preliminary final

against Dumbleyung. Wagin won the Dumbleyung game 3-1 with some of their best hockey of the year.

Warriors played their familiar fast paced, high pressure style of hockey and immediately put the Wagin team

under pressure. Warriors kept attacking the D of Wagin, trying to get a short corner or a deflection into goal.

Wagin defence worked hard to get the ball out of the defensive 25 and give the forwards something to

attack with.

The pressure from Warriors eventually got through the Wagin defenders and they put the first score on the

board with about 3 minutes to go in the first quarter.

Wagin came out after quarter time with a plan to get more control of the ball. This worked in their favour and

led to Wagin having multiple shots on goal and short corners. Wagin couldn't convert these chances though

and after a penalty stroke actually conceded another goal to Warriors. Wagin went into half time down 2 nil.

After a needed break Wagin started the 2nd half well. Some excellent ball movement from half backs up to

the forwards resulted in Wagin getting a short corner. Wagin converted this into a goal to bring the score

back to 2-1 to Warriors at 3 quarter time.

Both teams lifted the intensity for the last quarter. Wagin put pressure on Warriors defence and succeeded in

getting some short corners awarded. However they could not convert them into goals.

Warriors scored a late goal to put the nail in the coffin with about 6 minutes to go in the game. Wagin never

gave up and gave it their all right up to the final siren. Final score was Warriors 3 to Wagin 1.

While Wagin was disappointed with the result they were proud of the effort they all put into the game and

are looking forward to getting the premiership shield back next season.

The Wagin Hockey Club held their wind up on Saturday the 21st of September and a massive thankyou goes

out to all of those that helped organise the event. Without the help of club members and volunteers these

occasions wouldn.t be able to go ahead. The following players took out the awards for each of their

respective grades and a huge congratulation goes out to Dwight Kellow and Emily Holt for receiving life

membership of the Wagin Hockey Club.

BRAIN TEASERS

Kings and queens may cling to power, and the jester’s got his call,

But, as you may all discover, the common one outranks them all. The answer is THE ACE IN A DECK OF CARDS.

You use a knife to slice my head,

And weep beside me when I’m dead.

What am I? The answer is ONION.
