SUN STREAMED THROUGH THE STAINED GLASS WINDOWS

What a glorious rendition of the’ Holy City’ was sung by Chris Thomas and supported by several members of the Sing Australia Choir at the Jamestown Uniting Church’s 140th celebration on 5th August, 2018, as the morning sun streamed through the beautiful Memorial Windows!

The Rev Ian Lohmeyer and his wife, Sue, who ministered in this area in the early 1980s, returned for the occasion. During those six years Ian remembered officiating at approximately 40 weddings, was one of them YOURS? Rev Ian delivered an inspiring message at the service, encourag-ing the large congregation to daily choose three things in their lives that they can demonstrate gratitude for.

The celebrations began with a Day of Prayer on Saturday 4th when several people took the opportunity to share a time of prayer.

A Family Fun night was held that evening when lots of dancing and games were enjoyed by young and old alike! A highlight was the singing of ‘Dare to be Square’ and ’Glorious’ by some members of the James-town Community School Choir, Lauren Kupke and Harrison Walters sing-ing the lead parts.

Talented Hayden Kupke played ‘Amazing Grace’ on keyboard and Messy Church Kids entertained with the singing of ‘Father Abraham’ and they were accompanied by Pete Porch on guitar.

A traditional Pleasant Sunday Afternoon was also held with a great variety of entertainment, including Mrs Neta Lawrie and Mrs Neta Cox, two previous choir members, singing ‘Whispering Hope’ beautifully, both of them having sung for well over 80 years. Other musical items were presented by Annika Hooper, Steve Jacka, John Moore, Leslie Kurlow and of course Margie Symonds, who lead the whole weekend with her won-derful musical talent.

The Whyte Yarcowie Vaudeville Troupe skits brought laughter to the gathering which concluded with Mrs. Dorrie Riddle cutting the celebra-tion cake.

The regular congregation now plans to continue to focus on offering love and support to local people, and beyond, and hopes that the 150th year will also be a time of great celebration!

In the meantime any interested people are invited to attend their bi-monthly Saturday night shared teas, next one to be held on 6th October in the Church Hall at 6 pm.

Seventeen-year-old Sophie Reynolds from Jamestown has won first prize in the Rabobank National Merino Show and Sale Wool & Sheep Con-vention fleece judging competition, held in Dubbo last week.

The Urrbrae Agricultural High School Year 11 student came up trumps from a raft of competitors aged 15-25 from around Australia.

It’s an amazing result for Sophie, in her first complete fleece judging event, which involves ranking four fleeces to set criteria and then talking about your decision making.

Sophie says she was very surprised but pleased to win.“I wanted to have a practice run before competing at the State Titles

at the Royal Adelaide Show, I certainly wasn’t expecting to win,” she says.“It’s probably made be a little nervous going into the State event.”Sophie says she has learned fleece judging during work experience and

part-time work with Simon Seppelt from Quality Wool - Quality Livestock over the past 12 months.

Simon said he was unbelievably proud of Sophie’s achievements.“It’s just great for Sophie to have this success, she’s a terrific young

woman with a really promising future in the industry.”“She’s a quick learner - a real natural for anything agricultural.”All the best to Sophie in this week’s State fleece judging event.

Jamestown Men’s Shed hosted 2018 SA Black Dog Ride team for a morning tea on the first day of their journey from Nuriootpa to Darwin to raise awareness about depression and suicide prevention.

Pictured are local motorbike enthusiasts who joined the main crew for a day of the ride: Trevor Stubing, Spalding, Dave Porter, Daryl Growden, Brenton Kaeding, Andrew Keller, all of Jamestown. They are photo-graphed with State co-ordinator of Black Dog Ride, Merv Storton.

Merv said riders on the journey share a common goal to start the con-versation about mental health awareness and suicide prevention.

The trip also raises funds projects, specifically training emergency ser-vices personnel in mental health first aid and providing mental health support for returned armed forces personnel.

Black Dog Ride began in 2009 as a ride to raise awareness of depres-sion, evolving into a national charity involving thousands of Australians who have raised millions for mental health programs and fostered men-tal health awareness around the nation. (photo & story Mel Kitschke)

Calling on people of all ages, community groups and businesses to come and be inspired to help celebrate 90 years of Royal Flying Doctor Services across Australia.

For more details please contact Damien Hunt 0400 096 531Raw, real and truly life-changing is the best way to describe Michael

Crossland…‘He is one extraordinary young man who has defied the odds of not

only life-threatening cancer as a baby but was the only survivor of a hor-rific drug trial that killed all except Michael. He continues the battle to this very day and spending nearly a quarter of his life in hospital, he is a true fighter.

Despite all of this, he has built a life of exceptional achievements. A young man who was told only what he could not do, this has not stopped him from showing the world that he could. An accomplished businessman and an elite sportsman, his life is a remarkable success. Michael is at the forefront of today’s new generation of inspirational speakers and after releasing his first ‘tell-all’ autobiography in 2016, he is now a number one bestselling author across six different countries.

As seen on Sunrise, Studio 10, Daily Edition, Australian Stories, MTV, Fox Sports News to name just a few, Michael speaks to CEOs, corporates, business leaders, schools/colleges and professional sporting organisa-tions around the world. In the past 12 months his total audience numbers both nationally and internationally exceed 250,000.’

ROSE SHOWSoroptimist members are excited about our Rose Show on Sunday

28th October. ABC radio journalist, Angela Smallacombe, will be open-ing the Show. There will be a display of a wide variety of local art. John Bradshaw, who hails from Rose Bay near Ardrossan, will facilitate a work-shop entitled “Picking and arranging Flowers.” John won the best rose at the Maitland Show and he has exhibited here previously. There will be a Devonshire afternoon tea and a raffle of garden goodies and a surprise-all included in the $10 admission. There will also be a “ What Rose is that?” competition to test your identification knowledge.

The” Over the Fence” competition will be happening again with large and small garden categories. Prizes will be awarded this year in addition to certificates. The children’s colouring competition is on again with priz-es of a worm farm for the winner’s class at school or their family, which-ever they choose.

After pruning roses, removing prunings and fallen leaves, and spray-ing to reduce the risk of fungal disease soil maintenance is important for longevity of plants and good performance of roses. An application of sea-mungus or manure helps as they are root and soil stimulants. Don’t be fooled by cool weather-the soil may not be moist- so watering is needed once new growth begins. An application of Sudden Impact in early Sep-tember will assure good blooms by Rose Show time. Mulching also helps insulate the soil from summer heat but if applied too soon it may prevent spring sun from warming the soil and promoting growth.

Entry forms will be available in the October edition of the Journal, at the Jamestown Show and from the Community Library. Over the Fence competition forms will be available from the library or from Anne Redden phone 86640888. Good gardening everyone.

LOCAL GROWERS AND VITERRA HELP DONATE TO JAMESTOWN HOSPITAL AND CAMP QUALITy

Local grain growers Craig Simpson and Des Sleep have helped contrib-ute $1000 each to the Jamestown Hospital and Camp Quality after they nominated the charities in a recent Viterra competition.

Craig, of Belalie North, and Des, of Terowie, were two of three winners across the state who nominated a community group to receive one of three $1000 donations.

Jack Tansley, Viterra’s Operations Manager for the Central region, said the prizes were offered to growers who filled out a planting survey in July to help the bulk handler with its segregations.

“The planting survey is an important tool for us to plan our operations in the lead up to harvest and we thank everyone for participating. The results are available on our website,” Jack said.

“We are also a major supporter of regional communities and think it’s great to offer an incentive which helps give back to the community.

“Growers were able to nominate any community group to receive the donation and three entries were drawn at random. We are lucky to have had two winners from the Mid North.

“Viterra is pleased to be supporting the Jamestown Hospital and Camp Quality with these donations to support local communities.”

The funds for Jamestown Hospital will be put towards community-funded renovations to the hospital’s Luke Verco wing.

Craig said he nominated the hospital because it was the lifeblood of

CHANGING OF THE GUARD ATBELALIE LODGE

Geof Bowman, the Residential Services Manager (RSM), finished on Friday 30 August 30. Geof is moving to Tennant Creek to work as the Health Services – Section Manager of the Anyinginyi Health Aboriginal Corporation. Geof was working in Indigenous health prior to commencing at Belalie Lodge and is returning to Indigenous health. Geof has appreci-ated the opportunity to work at Belalie Lodge, and especially enjoyed the interaction and support from staff, residents and the community.

Geof will be temporarily replaced by Vicki Orlando, who is contracted for three months while a new RSM is found. Vicki has extensive experi-ence as a country Aged Care RSM and recently acted in the Care Services Manager (CSM) role at Belalie Lodge, so she knows the staff and residents well.

Sharon Searle has joined the organisation as the CSM. Sharon comes from Victoria and has moved into a rental property in Jamestown with her cat and her dog, currently under training as a Pets as Therapy dog. Sharon has extensive Aged Care experience and brings a wealth of industry spe-cific knowledge to Helping Hand. Please welcome her in to the Jamestown community.

Congratulations to Enrolled Nurse Monica Malycha who recently reached her 15 year milestone working at Belalie Lodge. Monica is a pro-fessional and hard working team player, totally committed to the resi-dents.

Thank you for all your support and I wish the community of Jamestown the very best. Geof Bowman, Helping Hand

the community: “It’s really important we support the hospital and keep it up to date. Every cent counts.”

The donation to Camp Quality will go towards its Family Camps pro-gram, providing families with a break from the day-to-day stresses of childhood cancer.

Des said he chose Camp Quality after his son Russell had also raised money for the charity through a 24 Hour Sheep Shear-a-thon.

“They supported him all the way and are really great people,” Des said.

HART FIELD DAY READY TO ROLL FOR 2018

With footy finals upon us and spring just around the corner, the count-down is on for the 2018 Hart Field Day to be held on Tuesday, September 18, at the Hart Field-Site between Blyth and Brinkworth.

The Hart team has been working hard behind the scenes to pull togeth-er another huge line-up of informative and practical agronomy speakers and displays for this year’s event.

Hart Field-Site Group chairman and Spalding farmer Damien Som-merville said he was thrilled to announce the key lunch time speaker will be Canberra-based consultant Rohan Rainbow – well known in the Mid North district, having been based in Clare for 17 years.

“Rohan (pictured below) will speak on ‘Putting new technology in farmers’ hands’, giving an insight into his work on chemical use, regula-tion and new technologies on-farm,” Mr Sommerville said.

“Rohan will be part of a really strong program for 2018, which will also include Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development (DPIRD) WA research officer Georgie Troup who will team up with one of our stalwart presenters, SARDI principle oat breeder Dr Pamela Zwer to talk oaten hay, and improving yield and quality.

“We’ll also hear from Spalding grower Darren Longmire and agrono-mist Stuart Sherriff on the Harrington seed destructor and seed termina-tor.

“And a really timely topic will be the construction of the new weather station network for the Mid North and what it means in terms of access to more information for local growers.”

Be the first to hear about new lentil and faba beans with three new va-rieties to be launched at the field day by Pulse Breeding Australia, SARDI and The University of Adelaide.

New research on precision planting will be the focus for Stefan Schmitt from Ag Consulting Co and Emma Pearse from the Hart Field-Site Group.

“These and many more sessions with direct access to the professionals in the field, as well as static displays, really ensure there is a topic relevant to all growers,” Mr Sommerville said.

“The beauty of the Hart Field Day program is that you can pick and choose which sessions you want to attend and really customise the day to fit what’s happening on your own farm.

Admission is $35 (students $5), or online early bird price of $30, and includes access to all 19 sessions and more than 30 specialist speakers, as well as a comprehensive, full colour Hart Field Day guide with articles and information from each of the sessions.

Pre-registration and payment is now live online.Full catering is available throughout the day (cash sales only) and a

refreshment tent will operate after the event.Held on the Hart Field-Site Group’s trial site - 10 kilometres north of

Blyth, just off the Blyth to Brinkworth road – visitors will get a first-hand look at how the trial crops have performed so far in the 2018 growing season.

Bus and group tours are welcome and encouraged to register now.To register or for more information take a look at the Hart Field-Site

Group website www.hartfieldsite.org.au or contact Sandy Kimber on 0427 423 154 or email admin@hartfieldsite.org.au

While early registrations are encouraged, online registrations will re-main open until lunchtime on the 18th, so even if you decide on the day to head along it is easy to sign up be-fore you arrive and fast track your way through the gate. “But I think addi-tionally, it’s a great networking oppor-tunity. The field day is a chance to get together with like-minded farmers to chat about the crops, chat about fam-ily and the footy and make a day of it.”

Sponsored by Rocky River Ag Servic-es, the Hart Field Day gets underway on Tuesday, September 18, with gates open at 9am and an official opening at 10am. The first session starts at 10.30am sharp.

CRAFT ANONYMOUS COMES TO BELALIE ART GALLERY

Curated by Polly Dance as part of Adelaide City Council’s 2014/15 Emerging Curator Program, Craft Anonymous brought together South Australian regional and metropolitan textile, glass, metal and ceramic art-ists for an exhibition in the iconic Adelaide Town Hall in 2015. The exhibi-tion is now on a tour of regional South Australia throughout 2016-2018.

Featuring artists Louise Byrne, Annabelle Collett, Cindy Durant, Ro-byn Finlay, Wayne Mcara, Deborah Prior, Patricia Rose, Sera Waters and Meg Wilson, the artists employ traditional handicraft techniques such as weaving, embroidery, knitting, felting, enamelling and hand-dying are showcased within a contemporary art context; where old meets new.

Curator Polly Dance says “I believe that there is a place for craft, handi-work and the handmade within the twenty-first century art world con-text, and fortunately South Australia has a rich pool of craftoholics!.”

“The works that have been selected for this exhibition include recent work by five regional South Australian and four Adelaide-based artists whose practices transverse textile, glass, metal and ceramic media. These self-confessed craft addicts have employed traditional techniques such as weaving, embroidery, knitting, felting, enamelling and hand-dying, while framing their work within a contemporary art context; where old meets new.”

Craft Anonymous addresses ideas around the body: approaching themes of adornment, embellishment, desire/disgust, and identity: pub-lic/private, femininity/masculinity, domesticity, place, family history and a sense of belonging

Craft Anonymous aims to extend exhibition and professional develop-ment opportunities for artists and to encourage further exchange be-tween metropolitan and regional artists and audiences.

Please join us for the Opening of this Exhibition. It will be opened by Mrs Mavis Cooper OBE on Friday the 7th of September at 6pm. Light refreshments will be served Cost $10 per person

This is the final showing of this exhibition, it will be on display at the Belalie Art Gallery from Friday 7th – Sunday 30th September 2018.

The Wallabies (Older child care children) have been visiting Belalie Lodge, what a wonderful way to build community connections, and to bring joy and a smile to the faces of the children and Belalie Lodge resi-dents. They are hoping to visit about once a month.

Nature play and forest school were a bit different last week with fi-nally being some muddy puddles and some rather large puddles! which of course all he children loved to jump in. Lots of wonderful stories and anecdotes have come back from the children and staff, and every one of them is about the children embracing and enjoying nature.

Book week from 18th to the 24th of August and what great costumes we saw at our Centre and parade with the Community School to show off their costumes. Everyone did a great job walking around. We were very lucky to also have some special face painters here to really complete our costumes, so thank you to Janelle Butterick & Vanessa Jacka

The Kindy went on a long drive to Port Pirie where we saw “The Very Cranky Bear”, we stopped in Gladstone for a play on the playground before continuing on to Port Pirie. The children enjoyed the show and laughed at the singing and some of the costumes.

The kindy were able to go out to Bundaleer forest for Forest Kindy. We were impressed with how well all the children followed the rules around the camp fire as they cooked their damper. Before cooking their damper, the children had to whittle a stick to cook the damper on, learning how to use different tools safely and carefully.

Our new sign is in place on Cockburn Road, helping to highlight here the Centre is located. Thank you to Alysha Sparks for her flare in design and to the Jamestown Community School for allowing us to sign post our centre. The sign reflects our value if our beautiful country location, the fun filled, slightly crazy at times Centre and our value of Nature Play and the importance of being outdoors.

Don’t forget you are all invited to come and look around our centre on Thursday 20th September

PROBUS CLUB OF JAMESTOWNKevin Booker, a Cycloidal Vibration Therapist with SleepSmart, was our

Guest Speaker for August. He spoke about the benefits of good sleep relating to one’s health, engaging members with enjoyable, light-hearted participation, whilst delivering strategies to improve sleep quality.

The main focus is to help seniors stay active, by improving their qual-ity of sleep, which can improve their quality of life without the need for drugs.

Other benefits of “sleeping smart” can be relief from arthritis, easing pain particularly in back, knees and hips, and helping to manage diabetes, sleep apnoea, blood pressure, leg cramps and cholesterol by improving circulation, all without the use of drugs.

Kevin and our members discussed his Sleep Trivia, where we discov-ered that our brain doesn’t rest during sleep, every time we move in bed is considered broken sleep, we need more sleep as we grow older, poor health can cause weight gain, and poor sleep has been linked to Alzhei-mer’s and Dementia.

His advice is to never sleep on your stomach (putting pressure on all organs) or right shoulder, but instead to sleep on your back, when all organs are elevated.

One of our newer members, Brian Mathews, was born in Adelaide, and attended Crystal Brook Primary School, when life was pretty good there even in the Great Depression.

He recalls the wonderful celebrations held for South Australia’s Cen-tenary. He also visited the local farms, helping with milking of cows, and feeding pigs. They had great fun, enjoying picnics and playing at the Creek. His Secondary Schooling was at Port Pirie High School.

Brian’s father was a builder, who built the 5PI radio station. He was also a funeral director, and served in World War II in 1940 in the Middle East as an Ambulance Driver.

After completing school, Brian attended Muirden College in Adelaide, studying Accountancy. He had varied employment, including working at RAA Accident Insurance Claims Department, Mitsubishi, Solar Optics and Public Service at Hospital Records Department, Aboriginal Department involved with Early Settlers and Coroner’s Department.

Brian’s late wife, Judith, was a Secretary to Premier Don Dunstan. Brian and Judith bought a house in Jamestown some years ago, because they loved the town, and he’s now enjoying living here.

Visitors or prospective new members are always welcome to attend our meetings on the first Tuesday each month, commencing at 10.00am at the Commercial Hotel.

FROM OUR PASTCompiled by Jamestown Local History Group

120 years Ago:“The Agriculturist & Review”, September 1898Jamestown Hospital: The Board of Management of the Jamestown Hos-pital met on Tuesday evening last under the presidency of Mr. H. Boucaut. The principal business was the consideration of the reply of the Government to the request that they should take over the control of the Hospital. The Chief Secretary intimat-ed that the Government were eminently satisfied with the management of the Board and desired them to continue in office, promising any rea-sonable amount of assistance. It was decided to ask the Hon. Wm. Russell to obtain from the Minister the assurance in writing which he had given to the deputation verbally. The question of the appointment of a house committee was deferred until next meeting. Mannanarie Institute: At a meeting of subscribers of the Mannanarie Institute, held some little time back, dealing with the question of the purchase of a piano, urged by a deputation of ladies who waited n the subscribers, it was resolved – “That we do not see our way clear to hire or purchase a piano until at least half of the amount of cost is raised or otherwise provided for”. With a view of making provision the Secretary (and Librarian) Mr. D. T. Robinson, has been directed to write to the heads of families throughout the district asking them if they would allow one or more members their families to become subscribers, the fee being five shillings per year. There are at present about twenty five subscribers and it is desired to raise the number to at least forty. This with two or three entertainments a year, together with proceeds of a picnic promised by the day school, would place the members in a position to purchase, see-ing that all subscriptions are subsidised by the Government. 100 years Ago:“The Agriculturist & Review”, September 1918A Popular Foreman: Mr. W. Hooper, who for some time was employed at the Jamestown Branch of the Adelaide Milling Co., and recently left to take a position as Foreman of the Port Pirie mill, has owing to ill health been compelled to retire from his employment. The Jamestown friends of Mr. Hooper, will regret very much to hear that his health is so unsatisfac-tory, but hope that a change will soon restore him to good health. We cull the following from the ‘Port Pirie Recorder’, On Friday evening, just be-fore leaving work at the Adelaide Milling plant, a pleasing ceremony took place. Mr. W. Hooper, foreman, who is retiring on account of his health, was presented with a smoker’s outfit complete, bearing neat inscriptions on silver shields. The presentation was made in suitable terms by Mr. S. J. Jones, manager, on behalf of employees, all of whom assembled to take part in the function. A Large Turnip: Mr. Geo. Gullidge of Yongala Blocks, bought into the town last week, an exceptionally large turnip which weighed 12 pounds 9 ounc-es. This vegetable is of the White Stone Variety, and was grown by Mr. Gullidge from Yates’ seed, and is one of very many large ones grown on the same plot. This fine turnip has been on view in Messrs Snodgrass & Gordon’s window during the week. 75 years Ago:“The Agriculturist & Review”, September 1943.303 Rifles: The Department of the Army have announced that no further applications can be received from pastoralists and farmers for .303in. ri-fles to be used for pest extermination as the very limited quantity that was available, has now been sold. All applicants who have completed the official application form and who have already dispatched it with the re-quired remittance and Police Permit to the Impressments Officer in the State they reside will receive a rifle. In some cases applicants will not re-ceive a Martini Enfield Rifle as insufficient stocks of this type are avail-able to complete demands, but will receive other types of .303in. which have bee released to complete the applications in hand. The Army regrets that some unavoidable delay in delivering rifles must take place to stores that are urgently required in operational areas. This factor has resulted in some considerable time lapse before delivery has been effected but every possible action, subject to operational priorities is being taken to expedite the delivery of these rifles to the pastoralists who require them urgently for pest extermination.

Air Training Corps: Flt.-Lieut. W. J. Bentley and Flt. Lieut. A. P. Whittington visited Jamestown on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week to finalise ar-rangements for the formation of a unit of the A.T.C. in Jamestown. Mr. M. Pyne, M.A., Headmaster of the Jamestown High School will be in charge of the unit and will have Mr. Byerlee and Mr. M. Aston B.Sc., assisting him with instruction. Youths from 18 years of age are eligible for enrolment and those who are interested should contact Mr. Pyne for full particulars. 50 Years Ago:“The Northern Review”, September 1968Copper Drilling at Bundaleer: Three diamond drill test holes in search for copper in the Bundaleer area detected no significant mineralization. This was stated in the House of Assembly last week by the Premier, The Hon. R. S. Hall in replying to an earlier question by Mr. C. E. Allen, Member for Burra. In his question, Mr. Allen said, “Can the Premier, representing the Minister of Mines, say whether copper at Bundaleer, north of Spald-ing, was carried out by the Mines Department and, if it was, what results were obtained”. In giving his reply, Mr. Hall said, “The Mines Department undertook geochemical over an area in the Hundred of Reynolds to the north west of Spalding and located several zones where the copper con-tent of surface samples were anonymously high. Subsequently, diamond drilling was undertaken and three holes were completed. The results were disappointing and no significant mineralization was detected. Dual Purpose Civic Function: A Civic Function in the Jamestown Memo-rial Hall last Sunday afternoon, to recognize 20 year’s service to the com-munity of the Jamestown Hospital Auxiliary and to accept a Public Clock for the Hall from Dr. L. E. and Mrs. Verco, was attended by more than 300 people, many of them former residents. The Mayor, Mr. B. N. Williams, in opening proceedings, said the Board of the Jamestown Hospital had for some time been seeking an opportunity to show its recognition of the service to the community by the Hospital Auxiliary over the past 20 years and to Mrs. Verco who had been president all that time. Various speakers conveyed the thanks and appreciation of the community for the efforts of our guests. Mr. Williams said the gift of a public clock mounted on the parapet of the Memorial Hall confirmed the need of the people of the town and district to be grateful to the Verco’s who had always been ready to be involved in civic efforts. (Where is the clock now, Ed.)25 Years Ago:“The Jamestown Journal”, September 1993New Restaurant: Belalie Brook Restaurant is to open on Saturday, Sep-tember 25 and is situated at 100 Irvine Street on the bank of Belalie Creek. The building was built in 1916 and was the power station. At a later stage it became a fire station to be followed by a works depot for the council and now in 1993 is to become a restaurant with the building retaining its rustic character. Surrounded by large gum trees and the Belalie Creek on the northern side adds to the atmosphere of the building. It is planned to plant shrubs and establish a herb garden. A dream is finally becoming a reality for Don and Ellen Mudge who have searched for a number of years for such a venue to develop a restaurant. Hours of planning and lots of hard work are obvious to all who remember its previous status. The of-ficial opening by Mayor Mick Boston is on October 9. Congratulation and best wishes to Don, Ellen and family with their new venture.

SPEAK UP TO IMPROVE ROAD SAFETyPeople can now have their say on driver training and assessments in

South Australia so the industry can be improved.Member for Stuart, Dan van Holst Pellekaan, is encouraging people

to consider their interactions with driver training and assessments and provide feedback about their experiences as well as their suggestions on how it can be improved.

“When we consider road safety, the quality of driver training and as-sessments is extremely important,” he said.

“The State Government wants to develop a best practice driver train-ing and assessment model that is accessible and customer and road safety focussed.

“It is imperative the industry and its systems are reviewed and one of the best ways to do that is to listen to the community’s own experiences.”

Feedback can be submitted to DPTI.DriverTrainingConsultation@sa.gov.au or via a survey at yoursay.sa.gov.au

Consultation closes 5pm Friday, September 28 with a summary of feedback to be provided on the yoursay website site and www.sa.gov.au

Great turn out of people from the Mid North to celebrate the amaz-ing efforts of the Variety SA volunteers and support crew who devote so much time energy and money to raise funds for sick, disabled and disadvantaged children.

Two significant Variety SA grant presentations were made in James-town - for an interactive children’s storybook sculpture trail at Bundaleer Forest Picnic Ground and a shade covering for Spalding Playground.

Thank you Variety SA from all of us in the Mid North!
