Three trips to town for me in the week meant

buying two of the regional papers.

Wow! The big media conglomerates must be

raking in the cash. Those papers were at least half

full of full-page colour advertisements mostly

from the large retail groups.

After leaving Google, Tim Hwang wrote “Subprime

Among other things, he noted large retail groups

reduced digital spend into traditional media increased

their messaging reach.

Obviously, the large retailers have noticed and

are pouring promotion into regional media.

It is surprising then that the Chronicle has raised

the sale price of its physical paper, as that is where

even skimming readers glimpse all the ads - unlike

Vietnam veterans remembered for service and sacrifice

60 YEARS SINCE FIRST INVOLVEMENT IN VIETNAM WAR AND ANNIVERSARY OF THE BATTLE OF LONG TAN

Community members gathered

last Thursday to pay their

respects to those who had served

during the Vietnam War.

The Toowoomba RSL Sub

Branch and Darling Downs Vietnam

Veterans welcomed attendees

to the commemorative service

held at Mothers’ Memorial

on Thursday morning.

The ceremony marked 60

years since Australia’s first involvement

in the Vietnam War

and also the anniversary of the

Battle of Long Tan.

Vietnam veteran Jim Danskin

spoke about the conflict while

Long Tan survivor Lindsay

Morrison read the Roll of Honour

of fallen servicemen from

Toowoomba and the Darling

Downs.

Mr Morrison said it was great

to see the extent of community

support for the veterans of the

Vietnam War.

“It took me until 2005 to tell

people that I had served in Vietnam.

"I had lived in Toowoomba for

20 years before my neighbours

even knew that I was a Vietnam

Veteran.

Vaccination bus comes to Darling Downs

The Spring VaxBus is delivering

COVID-19 and influenza

vaccines across the Darling

Downs region from August 23

to September 16.

The bus is delivering

COVID-19 Pfizer vaccines for

children and adults, Novavax

vaccines for adults, and Influenza

vaccines for everyone aged

five years or older.

The Spring VaxBus can provide

COVID-19 and flu vaccines

during the same visit. All vaccines

are provided for free, and

no bookings are required.

Darling Downs and West Morton

PHN CEO Lucille Chamlers

said people were expected to get

more active as we move into the

warmer months.

“Getting vaccinated against

COVID-19 and the flu is the

best way to keep ourselves and

others well,” she said.

“The goal of the Spring Vax-

Bus is to make vaccination accessible

to as many people as

possible.”

The Spring VaxBus has 26

scheduled stops, and all vaccines

will be administered by

the Oceana Immunisation team.

“It’s good now that we can

talk openly about it,” he said.

The Battle of Long Tan took

place in a rubber plantation near

Long Tan between Viet Cong

and the People’s Army of Vietnam,

and the 1st Australian Task

Force on August 18, 1966.

Looking back on his experience

at Long Tank, Mr Morrison

said he and the other soldiers at

the base didn’t know the attack

was going to happen.

“It was totally unexpected. We

didn’t know that there were that

many enemies there, we thought

there would only be a mortar

crew,” he said.

“I was sitting on the side of a

Vietnam dug trench listening to

Little Patty and Col Joy having

a concert back at base and we

didn’t know it was all going to

happen.”

Mr Morrison said he felt proud

that it was being accepted by the

public but also sad remembering

those who didn’t make it back

home.

He said the growing public

support and ceremonies like this

helped him put the conflict behind

him.

The schedule has been designed

with flexibility in mind

to ensure maximum coverage of

the community.

To enquire about in-home

vaccinations for vulnerable people,

or to confirm the exact time

and location of the bus, community

members can call 1300 117

792.

While Medicare cards are not

required for vaccination, participants

will require a legal form of

identification which can include

said he was surprised with the

community numbers attending

Thursday’s event.

“It’s absolutely terrific and I

was quite blown away with the

numbers in attendance here today.

WWII veterans, these Vietnam

veterans are now becoming

more in focus of remembering

the fallen,” he said.

HIGH COUNTRY HERALD - AUGUST 23, 2022 - 3

Three arrested after reckless joyride

Three people were charged after a stolen ute

was allegedly driven dangerously between Ipswich

and Toowoomba last week.

It was alleged a Toyota Hilux was stolen during

a break-in at a Laidley residence just after 2am on

Monday, August 8.

It was further alleged the Hilux was sighted in

different locations driving at high speed and on the

wrong side of the road.

At around 8.30am on Monday, August 8, the

vehicle was driven straight at a police vehicle on

Stone Gully Road at Coolan, forcing the officers to

take evasive action and pull away from the road.

Polair continued to monitor the ute as it proceeded

onto the Warrego Highway towards

Toowoomba, allegedly continuing to travel dangerously

and at a high speed.

The two occupants of the vehicle abandoned

the ute on Sixth Avenue in Toowoomba and were

picked up by two other people allegedly driving a

black Toyota Rav4.

The Rav4 was then allegedly driven dangerously

on Toowoomba Streets including crossing onto

the wrong side of the road and through a service

station.

Polair continued to track the vehicle until it

travelled into the carpark of Grand Central shopping

centre where the four occupants exited and

ran inside.

Officers immediately attended the location and

took four people into custody.

An Ellen Grove man, 29, was charged with

three counts of dangerous operation of a vehicle

and one count each of burglary, receiving tainted

property, unlawful use of a motor vehicle, possession

of dangerous drugs, driving unlicensed, driving

uninsured, driving unregistered, and offence to

possess medicines.

A Toowoomba woman, 27, was charged with

two counts of unlawful use of a motor vehicle

and one count each of burglary, receiving tainted

property, unlawful use of a motor vehicle, driving

unlicensed, driving uninsured and driving unregistered.

A Newtown woman, 35, was charged with two

counts of unlawful use of a motor vehicle and one

count each of burglary and possession of tainted

property.

All three appeared in the Toowoomba Magistrates

Court on Tuesday, August 9.

A Rockville boy, 15, was charged with unlawful

use of a motor vehicle.

Council cuts red tape to

aid housing supply

Toowoomba Regional Council has endorsed

seeking Ministerial approval to remove regulations

to aid new housing supply.

Planning and Development Committee chair Cr

Megan O’Hara Sullivan said this was one of four

measures the council would use to simplify and

speed up the approval process for new housing

across the region.

Cr O’Hara Sullivan said the simpler process

would streamline development mostly in emerging

areas in Cotswold Hills, Torrington, Glenvale

and Drayton. Around 430 hectares of land or 3700

lots (mostly 700sqm, in keeping with sizes agreed

to by the development industry) would be available

for new dwellings.

“This move will create a simpler, shorter and

lower-risk process for the development of land

with access to existing or planned infrastructure,”

she said.

“It also creates more options for the management

of stormwater for medium density development

on sites that slope away from the street, making

them more feasible for redevelopment.

“The council has taken this action to encourage

the development of new housing stock on appropriately

serviced and located land in the planning

scheme area to assist with addressing our current

housing shortage.

“Senior TRC planning officers consulted with

their state government counterparts and other development

industry professionals to devise a range

of measures and other policies to enable developers

to offer greater housing choice across the region.”

Cr O’Hara Sullivan said the council continued

to investigate options and hold discussions about

suitable council-owned land that could be developed

by social housing providers or private developers.

“We will continue to lobby the state government

and community housing providers to find solutions

for the urgent provision of social housing and

affordable housing for the private rental market,”

Cr O’Hara Sullivan said.

TRC Planning and Development Committee

portfolio leader Cr Bill Cahill said the council’s

initiatives were designed to assist in the provision

of more rental accommodation in the region’s existing

urban areas, as well as making it easier for

developers to provide new housing lots for owner

occupiers in the short term, (especially given the

demand for new owner occupier homes that has

been driven by federal stimulus incentives).

“History and statistical evidence show us that

these measures look to give us the greatest yield

for new dwellings on the ground,” Cr Cahill said.

“The council is also looking to unlock the latent

capacity in our existing infrastructure networks,

particularly around in-fill development. This also

delivers a more cost-effective solution as we encourage

more dwellings to be built.

“We acknowledge that housing supply and

housing rental stress are key issues being experienced

in our community, that have been compounded

by the COVID-19 pandemic and other

economic changes.

“These challenges are not unique to the

Toowoomba Region and reflect challenges being

experienced across Australia.

“The council continues to meet with the development

industry as part of ongoing discussions to

address housing supply concerns across the Region.

“The council must manage growth sustainably

and responsibly and is actively planning for the

future in developing a new Toowoomba Regional

Growth Plan and planning scheme.”

The council’s additional housing incentive measures

(that were endorsed in June 2022), include:

• Reducing application fees by 50% for building

new infrastructure associated with new subdivisions

for a period not exceeding 12 months from

June 2022, • Bringing forward an incentives policy

for adoption, that in principle reduces the infrastructure

charges normally applicable to a medium

density development. The details of this incentives

policy are yet to be determined and endorsed by

the council.

National Wattle Day - September 1

GOLDEN WATTLE AWARD RECOGNISES

CONTRIBUTION TO AUSTRALIA

Since 1992, the first day of

spring, September 1, has been

proclaimed as the nation’s National

Wattle Day. This was

done to unify individual State

and Territories Wattle Days that

had been celebrated between

July and October depending on

when the local wattle flowering

was at its best.

There are 1070 Acacia species

native to Australia. The Golden

Wattle (Acacia pycnantha) was

officially gazetted as Australia’s

national floral emblem in 1988.

The Golden Wattle Award is

presented to an Australian or

Australians who have brought

‘gold’ to Australia during the

year by their contributions to the

land and/or the people.

Previous winners include

Olympic swimmer Emma McKeon,

Australian health and medical

professionals, and Craig

Challen and Richard Harris, the

doctors involved in the rescue of

the Wild Boars Football Team

from the cave in Thailand.

Golden Wattle - 1070 species native to Australia

The Aboriginal and Torres

Strait Islander nations have used

acacias for a wide variety of

purposes, including food, medicines,

digging sticks, weapons,

musical instruments, firewood

and dyes. A number of wattle

species are suitable for garden

planting. Obviously, if you wish

to plant one, check that the size

is suitable for your garden, and

that the species can grow in your

locality, as some are not frost

hardy. Acacia are a good source

of pollen for help with bee populations,

and the seeds are a food

source for different bird species.

So, if this has germinated an

interest in our national floral emblem,

what are you ‘Wattling’

for! • Check out http://www.

Two people

arrested in

Harlaxton

murder case

Detectives from Toowoomba

Criminal Investigation Branch

and the Homicide Unit arrested

and charged two people last

week for the alleged murder of

Thor Morgan.

After five months of investigation,

police officers arrested

the man on the morning of Monday,

August 15 and he appeared

at the Brisbane’s Magistrates

Court that afternoon.

Three days later, detectives

arrested a 24-year-old Nobby

woman as part of the investigation

and she appeared at the

Toowoomba Magistrates Court

later that day.

At approximately 2.50am on

March 15, Mr Morgan was driving

a vehicle on Ruthven Street

when a firearm was discharged

from a stolen dual cab.

Mr Morgan would be later

found at a Coonan Street address

with a gunshot wound to his

head. Mr Morgan passed away

as a result of his injuries at the

Princess Alexandra Hospital on

May 16.

Following an extensive investigation

as part of Operation

Uniform Tyne, police dive squad

officers recovered a firearm from

a northern branch of the Condamine

River on July 26, which

police allege was used in the incident.

Detective inspector Heath

McQueen said information from

people coming forward helped

police recover a rifle from the

Condamine River.

“Throughout investigations

we often rely on members of the

community to provide information

to police to help us progress

investigations,” he said.

“There was at least one other

person in that motor vehicle

with the 24-year-old male who

has been charged with murder

today, and that person has assisted

that offender with destroying

evidence in attempting to cover

up this offence.

“Now is the time for any persons

who may have information,

or may have knowledge or may

have even been involved in the

commission of this offence to

come forward, take the opportunity

to sit down and provide that

information to detectives from

the Toowoomba Criminal Investigation

Branch.”

The 24-year-old man has been

charged with one count each of

murder, arson of a motor vehicle,

unlawful use of a motor

vehicle and unlawful possession

of weapons. He appeared at the

Work starts on upgrades for Mt Kynoch

Soil was turned at the Mt

Kynoch Water Treatment Plant

last week to celebrate the beginning

of the new Stage 4 upgrades

for the facility.

Upgrades to the plant will see

an increase in its filtration capacity

adding another 16ML to

its current 49ML per day limit.

The Toowoomba Regional

Council has invested $28

million in the project which is

required to implement modern

water treatment processes

and proven water security until

2031, in line with population

growth forecasts.

Infrastructure construction

company Fulton Hogan was

awarded the contract in November

2021 after completing a successful

early contractor involvement

phase.

Works will include replacing

mechanical and electrical equipment,

improved chemical management,

new chemical dosing

systems, and remediation to increase

the longevity of the existing

concrete tanks.

Water and Waste Committee

chair Cr Rebecca Vonhoff said

this project was to ensure there

was safe drinking water for the

future.

“We will be introducing an

ultraviolet light barrier which

is important for the treatment of

water,” she said.

“At the moment we’re relying

on filtration but ultraviolet light

is especially important for protozoa

removal.”

Cr Vonhoff said there would

be times where the upgrade

works would impact on the water

supply.

“That’s all going to be managed.

It’s a complex system but

there are huge storage tanks,

they’re going to be filled. We

know when peaks and troughs

are and that’s going to be taken

into account with the operation.

“During construction, residents

in the vicinity may notice

an increase of traffic to the site

and occasional movement of

heavy machinery.

“Water quality will be continually

monitored to ensure it

meets stringent water quality

guidelines during the upgrades.”

The Stage 4 upgrades are expected

to be completed by February

2024. - Sean White

Staff and children at Maclagan

Windermere Kindergarten

invited members of the Maclagan

Men’s Shed to join them

for a thank you morning tea on

Wednesday, August 17.

Recently the Maclagan Mens

Shed have worked on several

projects for the kindergarten

from restoring its picnic tables

and creating a new street library

for the service and the morning

tea was to show appreciation for

their work.

The street library will be a

new addition at the kindergarten

where members of the community

can exchange books together.

Maclagan Windermere Kindergarten

teacher director Lisa

Strohfeld said it was amazing

to have a group within the local

community like the Maclagan

Men’s Shed who were so willing

to help.

“We hold a working bee every

June/July and we asked the

men’s shed if they would like to

help in restoring our picnic tables.

They were more than happy

to help,” she said.

Maclagan Men’s Shed president

Russell Duggan said the

group held a demonstration for

children.

“Our members showed the

children how to correctly and

safely use the tools that we have

at the shed,” Mr Duggan said.

“It has been fantastic to see

the delight on the children’s faces

during the demonstration.

“The Maclagan Mens Shed is

a place where men can gather to

talk while we also help the local

community however we can.”

Tributes flow for

hit-run victim

Tributes and condolences

have been posted to Oakey

woman Trudy Wright Dodd and

her family after she died in an

alleged hit and run two weeks

ago.

Ms Dodd’s body was found

by a passing motorist on the side

of 4AK Road on the morning of

Saturday, August 13.

Investigations indicated Ms

Dodd was struck by a car sometime

between midnight and 8am

that day.

Toowoomba detectives investigating

the matter received

information from the public and

were able to locate the vehicle

believed to be involved in the

matter.

Detective inspector Heath

McQueen said the driver of the

vehicle was assisting police

with their enquiries.

“The Forensic Crash Unit has

a lead investigation and will

progress it as it goes forward,”

he said.

Family and friends took to

social media, remembering the

contribution Ms Dodd made to

the community.

started a GoFundMe to help Ms

Dodd’s three children to cover

the funeral costs; raising $8650

in 16 hours.

Spies in the Suburbs: After dark museum event

The public is invited to a unique night at

Cobb and Co Museum this Friday, August

26, to hear first-hand the poignant account

of a peculiar childhood in 1950s suburban

Brisbane.

Sue-Ellen Doherty and her two siblings

were trained by their ASIO agent parents to

memorise car number plates, spot unusual

behaviour on the street and avoid drawing

attention to themselves.

The children became unwitting foot soldiers

in Australia’s battle against Soviet infiltration

during the Cold War. They attended political

rallies, stood watch on houses owned by

communist sympathisers, and insinuated

themselves into the UFO Society.

Hear from Sue-Ellen herself, along

with With My Little Eye author Sandra Hogan,

a book written about the Doherty family.

The doors open at 5.30pm for a 6pm start.

• Cost for the talk and night time tour is $25

and includes a drink on arrival and a delicious

tasting plate. It is an 18+ event.

CHRISTIAN COMMENT

The Bible covers many subjects

Are you a book reader? Studies on the brain

have shown that reading something in print results

in a far greater comprehension of what is read,

than reading from a screen does.

This is especially helpful while studying. Using

printed books rather than a screen helps in retaining

what is learned, as the brain processes the two

methods differently.

It has been found that when reading from a

screen many of the fine details can be missed.

Curled up with a good book allows the imagination

to ‘see’ the characters and places in a story

book, in a way that reading from a screen does not.

Reading to children also has myriads of benefits

and can result in everything from them developing

a high IQ, to improved imagination and creativity.

It also of course, creates a bond with the child,

spending time together enjoying a good book, and

helps to create a love of reading.

Reading online is becoming more and more important.

The continued development of our brain

right throughout life can be greatly enhanced if we

take time to read books. Reading is also proven to

increase relaxation and reduce stress.

In a fast paced world, reading is a great way to

unwind and relax.

Did you know that there are 66 books in the Bible?

Did you know that apart from the four Gospels

that cover the earthly life and ministry of Jesus,

most of the books are written about everyday

people like you and I?

Are you aware of the many subjects the Bible

covers? History, genealogy, law, philosophy, love,

proverbs, wars, prophecy, worship, salvation and

songs, to name a few. Then there are adventure

stories, signs, wonders and miracles, how to live

in peace and joy and instructions for right living.

The Bible covers stories of men, women and

children from the nameless to famous kings and

prophets. It records battles won, love lost, acts

of both bravery and cowardice, and personal triumphs

and failures of many kinds.

If you have a Bible on your bookshelf that is

unread, perhaps it is time to read it and discover

it’s value for yourself. There are numerous other

benefits of reading the Bible and Psalm 119 records

many of them. Verse 105 gives one aspect:

"Your word is a lamp to my feet, and a light to my

path.” If you don’t have a Bible of your own and

would like one, please contact David Hiscock on

0448 982 919. - Contributed by John 15 Christian

Culvert replaced on Kingsthorpe-Haden Road

Upgrading of a major culvert

on the Kingsthorpe-Haden Road

(between McDonalds Road and

Kann Street, Haden) is expected

to be completed by October

2022, weather permitting.


Infrastructure Committee

Chair Cr Carol Taylor said the

project was originally due for

completion in April however due

to an historical find - an early

stone and timber culvert structure

- and ongoing wet weather,

completion has been delayed.

“A project milestone has recently

been reached, with traffic

switched over from the eastern

From the

on the eastern side,” Cr Taylor

said.

“The culvert replacement project

was jointly funded by the

Australian Government’s Bridges

Renewal Program Round Five

and the council. The project will

help to improve drainage and

road safety.

“Thank you to the community

for your patience while the

council completes this important

culvert upgrade.”

49th Toowoomba Swap Meet TOOWOOMBA SWAP 2022

Toowoomba Showgrounds

Sat 3rd - Sun 4th September 2022

Operated by the Darling Downs

Veteran & Vintage Motor Club

Darling Downs Veteran and Vintage Motor Club display on Saturday, September 3.

After recent postponements,

the Darling Downs Veteran and

Vintage Motor Club is excited to

welcome swappers to the 49th

Toowoomba Swap Meet.

This year’s swap meet will be

held at the Toowoomba Showgrounds

on the weekend of Saturday,

September 3.

Toowoomba Swap Meet publicly

officer Pat Murphy said the

annual event was usually held

on the first weekend of February

but the club now would continue

with the new September date.

“I have been with the swap

meet for about 40 years and it’s

great to see this event will continue

on,” he said.

“Swap meets are great places

where people are able to meet

like-minded people and may find

a great bargain.

“I know I will be on the lookout

for parts for a ‘33 Plymouth.”

The Toowoomba Swap Meet

is the biggest event of its kind

organised by a single club in

Australia and has attracted more

than 10,000 people to the event

for many events.

Vendors from all over Australia

will travel to the showgrounds

where they will be

selling a variety of wares from

antique items, clothing, car parts

and more.

Mr Murphy said the event had

been held at many venues around

Toowoomba since the first swap

meet was held at Hampton Street

at Glenvale in 1973.

“The Toowoomba Showgrounds

is the ideal site for the

swap meet because there are

plenty of undercover sites for

vendors and attendees,” he said.

“While internet trading has

affected swap meets around the

world, it can’t replace the personal

touch of interacting with

vendors in person.

“Swap meets are a great way

for people to meet like-minded

people to gather information,

and purchase new and second

hand items.”

The Darling Downs Veteran

and Vintage Motor Club has also

organised vehicle display on the

Saturday.

The Toowoomba Swap Meet

will begin on Saturday, September

3 at 6am with admission being

$15.

Admission on Sunday, September

4 is $5 and fathers accompanied

by one of their children

aged 13 and under will be

admitted free.

Singers appreciate Heritage Bank grant

The Yackatoon Singers, a group within Crows

Nest Arts Council, are very appreciative of a grant

received from the Crows Nest Heritage Bank for

the purchase of a heavy duty carry case for their

new Yamaha digital piano.

The case will serve to protect the piano in

between group rehearsals, and will assist in

transporting the instrument safely to other venues

where the group performs.

Yackatoon means “happy place” and this

certainly applies to the group which gets together

for singing, fun, and friendship.

The singers meet every Wednesday evening in

the Crows Nest RSL-Community Hall from 7 to 9

where they rehearse a wide range of pieces from

traditional to modern. The group sings at events

such as ANZAC Day and Christmas Carols, and

also entertains at the Crows Nest Aged Care

Facility.

New members are always welcome at practises.

No audition is required to join the group which

caters for all levels of singing experience.

secretary, on 0409 728 976.

LIVING HISTORY with MAX and PAM BACON

Oakey State Wheat Board

depot pictorial

During the 1940s Stan Bacon engaged Ted

Mathies from Silverleigh to cart his wheat from

the farm at Greenwood to Oakey Wheat Dump.

Ted arrived at Stan’s farm on one occasion at 4pm.

Ted said, “If we hurry, I think I can get another

load to Oakey before the weighbridge closes at

5pm.

Stan’s brother-in-law, Arthur Jarvis was present,

and Stan assumed Ted would load one side of the

truck while the two smaller men would look after

the other side of the truck.

Ted was a big man and to Stan’s amazement

he suggested, “You two little blokes get up on the

truck and stack while I load.”

With the load complete Ted still had six miles to

cover to reach the Oakey weighbridge.

A three-bushel bag of wheat weighed 180

pounds (82 kg). Stan’s father, William Bacon had

delivered wheat on bullock wagons to Port Augusta

and Port Germain in South Australia during

the 1890s. In those days a 4-bushel bag of wheat

weighed 240 pounds (109kg). At Port Germain the

jetty was over a kilometre long.

Wheat was delivered to the sailing ships at the

end of the jetty by a little train.

Prior to the building of the jetty, the wheat was

delivered to the sailing ships in rowing boats. How

the world has changed.

two lumpers on the stack. On this day, one of the lumpers was Percy (Morris?) who was an

amateur wrestler. The wheat was kept off the ground with a floor of bull oak poles which are

visible on the ground. This huge shed belonged to the Australian Wheat Board and was built

about 1954 to store an oversupply of wheat. Farmers had finally caught up with the shortages

of supply following World War Two. Oakey businessman, Doug Peters, said he was only nine

stone when he worked as a wheat lumper.


TRC progresses future of Jondaryan Woolshed

DEVELOPING APPROPRIATE OPERATING MODEL

Toowoomba Regional Council has

committed to a further analysis of the

benefits and risks associated with a

variety of operating models for the

Jondaryan Woolshed.

The analysis will be presented at a

future meeting of the Environment and

Community Committee.

At its meeting on Tuesday, August

16, the council received the Jondaryan

Woolshed Operating Model Analysis

Report July 2022 and resolved to make it

available to the public.

TRC Environment and Community

Committee Chair Cr James O’Shea said

the council was investing significant time

and resources in getting the operating

Maclagan kindy's

major fundraiser

returns

Maclagan Windermere Kindergarten

The Maclagan Windermere Kindergarten is excited

to hold its major annual fundraiser after two

years of interruption.

The service will hold its cent sale on Saturday,

September 10, at the Maclagan Memorial Hall.

Teacher director Lisa Strohfeld said the fundraiser

was a tradition of the kindergarten nearly 50

years old.

“The last time we were able to hold this fundraiser

was back in 2019 before the pandemic,” she

said.

“This fundraiser helps us sustain the centre so

we can continue to help the families in the district,”

she said.

“We service a large area with families coming

from Cooyar, Kulpi and Kaimkillenbun. Without a

kindergarten in Maclagan, families would have to

travel quite a distance for child care.”

“In the lead up to the cent sale, we’re still welcoming

any donations. A local craftsmen has donated

a special knife for our auction.”

A special presentation has also been planned for

Mrs Strohfeld during the event in recognition of

her 15 years of service to the Maclagan Windermere

Kindergarten Association.

The doors will open at 5.30pm and the program

will include a multi-draw raffle, auction, food, bar

and more.

Entry is $10 per adult with two sheets of tickets,

lucky door ticket and supper. Children enter free.

Ticket calling is scheduled for 7pm. - Sean White

model right into the future.

“Council, in conjunction with the

Friends of the Jondaryan Woolshed and

other key stakeholders, is developing

an appropriate operating model for the

woolshed into the future,” he said.

“This is a big part of our community

and we want to make sure we get it right.

"We know the community has a

connection with the facility and want to

see it restored and open for use.

"However, a lot of work needs to take

place for this to happen and the cost to do

this is quite significant.

“As an interim measure, Council has

employed an on-site facilities manager.

There is still work to be done in

determining what the re-opening looks

like for visitors and the community.

“No decisions have been made to

move any displays at this point in time.

"While Council intends to review

the myriad of displays at the woolshed,

the priority to this point has been on

the operating model with a full and

comprehensive review of displays yet to

be undertaken.

“TRC looks forward to continuing

work in determining the best way

forward for the Jondaryan Woolshed into

the future.”

across South East Queensland to see the talent that

calls this part of the region home,” she said.

“Fortunately we have one more weekend of the

InStudio Art Trail this weekend with 12 artists

opening up their work space to the public.”

Artists open this weekend will display a wide

arrange of media from painting, sculpting, mosaics,

model making, glass art and more.

Emu Creek plane crash

Emergency services raced to an Emu Creek property on the

weekend after reports of a small aircraft crash.

Paramedics arrived at the Pierces Creek Road property after a

private plane clipped a tree and fell 10 metres on Saturday morning

at 8am.

The couple were able to safely get out of the plane before paramedics

arrived.

Both patients were taken to the Toowoomba Hospital with facial

and head injuries in stable conditions.

Cost-saving generator inspected

at Wetalla

Inspections were made on the

new cost-saving generator project

for the Wetalla Wastewater

Reclamation Facility last week.


Water and Waste Committee

portfolio leader Councillor Nancy

Sommerfield and LGI CEO

Adam Bloomer inspected the

newly arrived generator for the

facility.

The new gas-fired generator

will use methane gas collected

from the Hermitage Road

landfill site to supply up to 70

per cent of the power to run the

wastewater plant.

Cr Sommerfield said it was

exciting to see the project take

the next step.

“This project began with discussions

during the 2012 to 2016

era where Cr John Gouldson

and myself raised the issue as a

potential opportunity for our region,”

she said.

“Since we started the test flaring

with LGI at the Toowoomba

Waste Management Centre

site in June 2020, the project

has been investigating the flow

of gas that could be reliably

sourced from the landfill cells

to run the generator. This testing

was required to determine the

appropriate size of the generator.

“Testing has proven the gas

LGI CEO Adam Bloomer and TRC Cr Nancy Sommerfield

field (Hermitage Road) can support

a 1000 kilowatt generator.

The generator was placed in

position at Wetalla earlier this

month with work now proceeding

on the final installation, electrical

connection and commissioning

of the unit.”

Cr Sommerfield said the

wastewater plant was the council’s

largest user of electricity in

the region.

“The council will mitigate the

effects of methane gas emissions

from the landfill while reducing

on fossil fuels to power our

Wetalla Water Reclamation Facility,

which is one of the council’s

highest energy users.”

LGI CEO Adam Bloomer said

LGI had been working closely

with the council, describing the

project as a win-win for both organisations.

“The site, on Hermitage Road,

has been flaring for the past couple

of years and has flared some

7.5 million cubic metres of landfill

gas so far which is a massive

reduction in emissions for the

council,” he said.

“The generator is expected to

be up and running in September,

it will be running a 1 megawatt

output initially with the potential

to do more in the future.”

Funding for this project has

been received under the Federal

Government Emissions Reduction

Fund for the carbon abatement

achieved through this contract.

Watts News

During the last month, I have been fortunate to catch up with many

Highfields locals, including the new Chamber of Commerce President,

Sarah Mengel and I’d like to congratulate Sarah on her appointment

and wish her all the best.

In last month’s column, I highlighted the Parliamentary Estimates*

process. To say that I was underwhelmed by the responses received

from the Palaszczuk Government during Estimates Hearings is an

understatement.

I sit on the Transport and Resources Committee/Estimates Hearings

and in doing so, I was able to directly ask the Director-General for

Department of Transport and Main Roads about the planning and

corridor identification to the north-west Toowoomba for a second road

to Highfields.

My take on the response is that the Labor Government does not

care about the people of Highfields. A sum of $2.422 million has been

allocated to investigate a major new north-south transport corridor for

Toowoomba to address growing traffic problems stemming from the

New England Highway through to Toowoomba city, however…

the current suggested location and linkage is via Charlton and not

via Boundary Street.

I ask you, for those residents who today are caught in the congestion

of a morning and seeing lower speed limits along that Highway as well

as problems in and out of various schools, how does a link more than

15kms away help to alleviate these concerns?

Good planning will make an enormous difference to the community

going forward. I have been informed that consultation with key

stakeholder groups with transport needs will commence soon and if

the stakeholder consultation outcomes support the current location

and planning that, the Department will commence consultation with

potentially affected landowners.

If both stages of this consultation identify no significant barriers

to proceeding to corridor protection, then the Department intends to

protect the corridor by mid-2023.

Now is our time to ensure that the corridor is beneficial for our

growing area.

I am truly very humbled to be the representative of Toowoomba

North. This is a growing area

and Highfields, and surrounds,

is leading the charge with

developments and I intend to ensure

that we get a positive outcome for

the community.

Until next month,

Trevor

Oakey Show goes ahead this weekend

After being postponed from

its original date at the start of the

year, the Oakey Show will finally

welcome guests through the

gates this weekend.

The 114th Oakey Show will

open this Saturday with a new

program that has something for

all the family to enjoy.

With the outbreaks of

COVID-19 at the start of the

year, the Oakey Show Society

thought it would be best to postpone

its original March date.

Oakey Show Society publicity

officer Diane Marsh said it was

disappointing having to interrupt

the event’s usual scheduling but

the show society was glad they

could put an event together for

2022.

“Last year was one of our

largest shows we have held

and, with the delay this year, we

wanted to make sure there was

still something for local families

to enjoy,” she said.

This Saturday’s show differs

from former shows in that there

won’t be the usual sections that

are seen at an agricultural show.

“We’ve focused on putting

together a fun day filled with

entertainment for everyone to

enjoy,” Mrs Marsh said.

“Instead of our usual horse

section, we have organised a

T-Shirt Fun Day for horse and

pony riders of all levels to come

down have some fun.”

Even though the 114th Oakey

Show will be held in August,

Mrs Marsh said the annual

event would return to its original

scheduling in March next year.

“The Oakey Show is a community

event where rural and

urban families can come togeth-

Something for families

er and celebrate achievements

in our local community,” Mrs

Marsh said.

FARMING

MLA partners with Agcotech and University of Sydney to reduce methane

PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN AGCOTECH

AND THE UNIVERSITY

OF SYDNEY

Carbon neutrality is as much about

production as it is about reducing

methane output in cattle and sheep.

Both go hand in hand, where

new additional pasture technologies

increase profits, improving rumen

function and lowering greenhouse

gasses.

Meat and Livestock Australia and

Agcotech have formed a partnership

with the University of Sydney to

further develop pasture supplements

that deliver new mitigants that

directly suppress methane production,

while improving breeder

condition and weaning rates.

MLA are also continuing to

improve GHG accounting systems to

help red meat businesses demonstrate

a carbon neutral or low carbon status

at farmgate.

Managing Director at MLA,

Jason Strong said, “The partnership

between Agcotech and the

University of Sydney is one example

of an investment that aims to

bring profitable livestock methane

technologies to market through the

Emissions Avoidance Partnership.

“MLA is also leading the Environmental

Credentials for Australian

Grassfed beef project, in a

consortium with World Wildlife

Fund-Australia and the University of

Queensland. This project is funded

through the Federal Governments

Landcare Grant program ‘Smart

Farming Partnerships’.

“This investment will enable

grassfed beef producers to

demonstrate their environmental

credent-ials and reduce their

emissions to access market

opportunities and participate in

carbon neutral and low carbon

supply chains,” Mr Strong said.

Agcotech Chairman, Charles

Olsson believes the Australian Red

Meat industry is leading the world

in all classes of Environmental,

Social, and Governance policy, and

this newest collab between MLA,

The University of Sydney and

Agcotech, will potentially take the

red meat industry to a new level on

the international playing field.

“Australia has dominated the red

meat market with best practice on

farm welfare, and now looks forward

to repeating performance to achieve

CN 30. I fully support this huge goal,

and believe with the right motivation,

we can shift the red meat industry to

even higher levels of production and

control methane at the same time to

be the envy of the world,” Mr Olsson

said.

Agcotech already has two products

already released into the Australian

market, and one product released

into Asia. Various methodologies

exist for Australian farmers:

• A new energy supplement that

intends to meet ‘additionality’, under

the existing beef herd methodology

method. This method is classified to

reduce “’methane intensity’ aiming

at increasing liveweight gain during

dry seasons, allowing animals to be

turned off earlier: also aiming to

identify nonperforming breeding

cows allowing them to be shipped off

the property earlier, all adding up to

a reduced carbon footprint and more

productive herd.

• A direct abatement pasture

product that achieves a modest

carbon dioxide reduction in methane

produced by cattle, mainly for

southern regions in Australia (NSW

and below), while also improving

pasture digestibility. This method

will allow graziers to participate in a

Voluntary Carbon Market, offsetting

emissions against their footprint to

begin a pathway to Carbon neutrality.

It is hoped over the next 4 years,

this joint investment in new or

existing combinations of methane

mitigants combined with patented

feedblock technology, will allow

higher levels of direct methane

More rain predicted through to October

Favourable growing conditions for the winter season

have been predicted for most of Queensland. Those at

the recent ABARES Toowoomba conference were provided

with more details of the possibility of rainfall for

the August to October period.

A Bureau of Meteorology prediction shows much of

Queensland had more than an 80 per cent chance

of exceeding median rainfall. This included much of

Southern Queensland. The smaller areas were given at

least a 70 per cent chance of exceeding median rainfall.

The Australian livestock in-dustry has invested

in additional on-the-ground measures to further

support the Indonesian biosecurity response to foot

and mouth disease and lumpy skin disease.

Meat and Livestock Australia will provide

$1.3 million to fund an Indonesian FMD vaccine

support project for importers to purchase up to

600,000 vaccine doses for Australian cattle entering

Indonesian feedlots.

The vaccines will be admin-istered by importers

and funding provided on a cost recovery basis by

MLA.

Australian Live Exporters’ Council CEO, Mark

Harvey-Sutton, said this was another way that

the industry was helping provide security for

Indonesian importers.

of red meat sales as the trusted source of the

“Providing assistance for vaccinations is a

practical measure that will help give importers

confidence and slow the spread of FMD,” Mr

Harvey-Sutton said.

“It will help allow Indonesian importers to

continue operating with fewer hurdles and build

on our years of partnership with Indonesian

industry.”

MLA Managing Director, Jason Strong, said

MLA would also be providing local expertise

and support via the Livestock Export Program

in-market team, who will provide updated

information and act as the link between industry

and government.

“This will help with consistent messaging

regarding policy and operational matters,

distribution of training materials and key

information to industry, and coordination of

Australia/Indonesia industry meetings and

updates,” Mr Strong said.

These measures are in addition to MLA’s

partnership with the Australian Government

to deliver a practical and comprehensive

biosecurity support program to Indonesia. As

part of the program, $2 million will be invested

over 18 months, providing technical and training

support to:

• Instil long term biosecurity capacity to

manage exotic diseases • Minimise disruption

to the live cattle trade • Build the Indonesian

Government’s confidence in their feedlot sector

to manage diseases to continue trade and food

security • Assist Indonesian smallholders to

manage and minimise disease spread.

Mr Strong said the program of investment

and activities would reduce the risk of FMD

incursion into Australia and protect the important

trading relationship with Indonesia.

“The Australian livestock industry is

committed to supporting Indonesia with its

disease suppression efforts,” Mr Strong said.

“Australia remains free of FMD. It is important

that government, industry, the supply chain and

the general public continue to work together to

keep it that way.

“We have successfully done this for over 100

years and industry and government are taking

practical steps to ensure that continues.”

To The Householders of the Highfields area

and beyond:-

This is a genuine Invitation to you and

all of your household to come and listen to

a series of Gospel Meetings being held

each Sunday afternoon

during August & September.

(Except Sept. 11, when it will be held at the

Highfields Cultural Centre)

from 4pm to 5pm in the

Highfields State School Hall

located on the corner of

10459 New England Hwy & Borghardt Rd,

Highfields.

You will find these meetings to be quiet and

respectful.

The teachings shared will be totally scriptural

and there will be no collections and no literature

other than the Bible.

We would like to share with you freely the

message of the Gospel that has brought us such

peace, joy and satisfaction.

Speakers:- J. Bowman & Gary Protheroe

CROWS NEST: August 17 - PWR Electrical

Afternoon resulted in a win for Ray Weis, Joe

McDonald and John Michelmore. In a close call for

second were Kerry Lovell and Brian Gleeson.

Many thanks to PWR for their support of lawn

bowls in Crows Nest. Onya Matt! The jackpot

didn’t go off. Next week could be your lucky week.

The result of the fifth round of the 2022 pennant

against West Toowoomba on Saturday, August 13,

was a washout because of the unreliable weather.

On Saturday , August 20, we played Drayton at

home. Those results will be in next week’s issue.

Members - Please keep an eye on the club

noticeboard for Crows Nest team selections each

week. Copies of the weekly home and away pennant

draw are available at the club.

August 11 - The Thrifty Thursday was won by

Roger Haldane and Ann McDonald. The colder

weather has depleted numbers of late, so why not

throw another jumper on and join the crew on a

Thursday arvo. It’s a good couple of hours' fun and

you’ll always be welcome.

August 14 - Afternoon bowls drew a muchreduced

number of players after the AGM, so a

friendly social game was the order of the day.

August 28 - Crows Nest Men’s Network Arvo.

September 4 - Crows Nest Fuels Day. September

11 - RE/MAX Rural Afternoon.

The annual general meeting of the Crows Nest

Bowls Club was held on Sunday, August 14. Results

will be available in next week’s column.

The next management committee meeting is

scheduled for Sunday, September 11, starting at

930am.

New members and visitors are always welcome

at Crow’s Nest. Feel free to get in touch with Gary

Baker on bakescrowsnest@live.com.au or on 4698

2197. Or, you could log onto our website www.

crowsnestqldbowlsclub.com.au

Crows Nest Bowls Club - New members welcome.

Whether you’re an old hand at the game or someone

who’s never picked up a bowl before in your life,

you’re absolutely welcome at the Crows Nest Bowls

Club. www.crowsnestqldbowlsclub.com.au to learn

more about us.

FISHING

CABARLAH: There was a good roll-up at Somerset

Dam for the Cabarlah Fishing Club trip on August

13 and 14 despite the weather outlook being a

‘high percentage of rain’ for most of Saturday. The

forecast was pretty close to the mark with drizzle to

lunch time, followed by consistent rain for the next

few hours before clearing around 4 o’clock. The water

was still coloured from recent rain but everyone

stuck at it with a number of Jew fish being weighed

in by dark.

On Saturday night we enjoyed a barbecue.

Thanks to Jen for organising the tucker, to Andrew,

Bruce and Trevor on hot plate duties, and to Therese

and Merris on the buttering. The catch of the day for

most Bass, went unclaimed and the member’s draw

was won by Chris.

On Sunday there was heavy fog early followed by

lovely sunshine. A couple more fish were weighed

in with Noel landing a cracker of a Yellowbelly at

4.10kg. The tally for the weekend was 22 fish - 21

Jew and one Yellowbelly. Therese caught the biggest

Jew at 1.33kg.

Ray’s In Between Trip on August 24 is now to

Cooby Dam. Meet at the boat ramp at 1pm.

The club’s September trip is to Coolmunda Dam

on September 10-11 and the October trip is to Copeton

Dam on October 1-3.

Note: The fishing rules are slightly different in

New South Wales.
