The Burdekin Football Club has marked its golden jubilee with a grand celebration, the Burdekin FC 50 Year Gala Dinner, last weekend.

The club, steeped in history and tradition, extended invitations to life members, past and present players, committee members, coaches, managers, sponsors, and dedicated supporters for an unforgettable evening of reminiscing and festivities.

Guest speakers reflected on each decade of the club’s history, ably led by emcees Michael Taylor, Monica Licciardello and Callan Sunderland, while attendees listened and laughed along.

The Burdekin Memorial Hall was a room filled with passion and pride last Saturday, October 14 as Burdekin FC celebrated 50 years of club football.

Laughs were shared and tears were shed as guest speakers told stories from the last 50 years, with some attendees coming from as far as Western Australia to join their former teammates for the celebration.

“The night was an opportunity to recognise our life members, all committees, coaches, players, sponsors and volunteers,” said Burdekin FC President Laurence Dal Santo.

“From the early beginnings, the club has had strong membership and community spirit which has been achieved by our success on and off the field.

“As we look to the future, we have gone back to our original club colours of black and white for our playing strip which looks awesome.

“We continue to have the best ground in north Queensland and are looking at upgrading both our junior and senior amenities in the coming year.”

The night adopted a chat show format where emcees Michael Taylor and Monica Licciardello invited special guests to the stage to reflect on each decade of the club’s history, while ‘roving reporter’ Callan Sunderland ran amok interviewing members of the audience.

Hugh Montgomery and Richard Samwell were first to reflect on the club’s foundation years before Graeme Ferguson and Tracey Walker (Power) took to the stage to discuss 1983-1992, Felix Gabiola and Catherine West (Roncato) discussed 1993-2002, Michael Lequerica, Chris Achille and Emily Christie (Saxby) spoke on 2003-2012 and Angelo Licciardello, Kate Southern (Castelanelli), Lyndsay Gabiola and Maddison Dal Santo talked about the last decade.

Alan Chatfield and Mark Grasso spoke about the legacy of junior football at the club while Richard Samwell and Ramon Oar reflected on Masters.

Burdekin Shire Council Mayor Lyn McLaughlin also took to the stage to congratulate the club.

“Burdekin FC has been an integral part of the community for the past 50 years, fostering unity, teamwork and a love for sports,” Ms McLaughlin said.

“The club has provided a platform for skill development, healthy competition, and social bonding. Their efforts have enhanced community spirit and brought joy to both young and old.

“On behalf of Council and the Burdekin community, I congratulate the thousands of people, including committee members, life members, club members, all players past and present, sponsors and supporters who have made the Burdekin FC one of the very successful sporting associations in the Burdekin.

“The dedication, passion and hard work have made the club a beacon of excellence, providing excellent facilities, great competitions and very importantly a welcoming, friendly environment to play either a competitive or social game.”

I’ve only lived in the Burdekin for a month and I’m already feeling pride for the region, but I can’t compare it to the pride I sense from the locals I meet every day.

Burdekin pride was well and truly on display last Saturday night at Burdekin FC’s 50 Year Gala Dinner, where those associated with the club gathered, some coming from as far as Western Australia, to celebrate the memories, achievements, and mateships of the club.

I loved the chat show format of the evening where emcees Michael Taylor and Monica Licciardello riffed through the night while Callan Sunderland roamed through the crowd trying to get old anecdotes out of the crowd members: the saucier, the better.

The room was full of love for Burdekin FC and the life members, committee and players clearly appreciated an opportunity to relive the memories.

It made me wonder if I’ll ever become a life member of a sporting organisation and based on what I saw on the weekend, I certainly hope I do.

Speaking of Burdekin pride, Gracie Hosie is back in town!

I’m sure many of you will be familiar with Gracie from her work with the Water Festival, Youth Council and her many other ventures while living in the Burdekin.

Gracie moved to Brisbane this year for university but has been helping me out this week with some work experience.

Make sure to keep an eye out for some of her stories in this edition and next.

Burdekin’s local All Saints Anglican Church and Ladies Guild generously donated a total of twelve priest stoles to seasonal workers of the Solomon Islands.

Every Sunday morning, several Solomon Islanders, who travel to Ayr for seasonal work, take to the pews of Ayr’s All Saints Anglican Church to participate in services, donate to missions, and assist the parish in their worship. These small good deeds have not gone unseen, in fact, Karen Allen, the priest in charge, states, "Their presence in the church makes our worship so much more inclusive.”  

Over the years the group of seasonal workers has grown, and so has their presence in the church. Every Sunday afternoon and Thursday evening, the group performs their own service and have regularly expressed to the parish the challenges their community faces in locating resources and sacred items, such as stoles, for services back home.

Stoles are a silk vestment worn over the shoulders of a priest during service. In the calendar of Christianity there are four seasons, and within those four seasons, a priest’s stoles change from green, purple, red and white. Within the twelve stoles donated by the Parish and Ladies Guild, four sets were provided covering the Christian seasons and special occasions. The Solomon Islanders expressed great appreciation and are eager to bring home the stoles to their community parish.

The All Saints Anglican Church expresses great gratitude towards the participation of the Solomon Islanders and extends a welcoming invitation to all to their services each Sunday at 8:30am and Thursday at 9:00am.

Following years of campaigning for a $2.86 million CT scanner at Ayr Hospital, the Minister for Health, Shannon Fentiman, has responded positively to requests by opening a Business Case submission on the matter.

A public letter outlining plans was sent last week with the Minister stating that she understands “that each rural community and its population needs are unique”.

“Each requires a tailored model in order to provide appropriate health care services to reduce the need for residents to travel for health care,” she said.

“We understand that health emergencies often happen outside of business hours, which is why it is so important that a CT scanner is available to Ayr locals through Queensland Health, 24 hours per day.”

Currently, there is one privately owned CT scanner at Ayr Diagnostic Imaging (ADI), and although this services the community during work hours, it is closed in the evenings.

As a result, up to 15 patients a week are transported to Townsville Hospital for emergency CT scans.

Most of these patients are suffering from symptoms of a stroke or a significant injury and they need to travel one hour to receive a CT scan.

They are largely transported to Townsville by the Ayr ambulance and a paramedic, which removes these valuable services from the region during that time.

Member for Burdekin, Dale Last, said that while the recent news from the Health Minister is a step in the right direction, “we won’t hear the sound of champagne corks popping, yet”.

“The celebrations are definitely on hold until the machine is in place and patients are receiving their scans here in Ayr - that’s when we will know we have succeeded,” he said.

“By acknowledging the importance of a CT scanner 24 hours a day, the Minister has indicated that we have proven a need for the scanner and that is always a difficult hurdle to clear.

“It is an acknowledgement that would not have happened without community support.”

“We aren’t across the finish line and, rather than celebrating, I’ll be focussing on ensuring community support is maintained.  

“The fact that we already have staff who can operate the scanner means we have a strong business case, but it still comes down to a decision by the Minister.”

Ayr Hospital is the largest level three facility in Queensland currently without a CT scanner.

During this month's Parliamentary session, Andrew Willcox, the Federal Member for Dawson, delivered an impassioned speech directed towards the Federal Government. His address focused on the recent prohibition of commercial gillnet fishing.

In a display of frustration, the MP vehemently expressed his concern that the Federal Government's actions are stripping away the livelihoods and economic opportunities of over 90 licensed fishermen in the North Queensland region.

“In June, a joint media release from Federal and Queensland Governments have said they’re going to ban gillnet fishing… no consultation with the community, no consultation with our fishermen, and short time frames! This is going to happen by the end of this year,” Mr Willcox said.

“I was talking to one of these fishermen, and he happened to have a daughter who’s in grade 12, a straight A student who wants to go to university to become a doctor, a GP, and we certainly need more of those in rural and regional Australia.

“And now, with the stroke of a pen from Canberra, this dream is being taken away. It’s absolutely disgraceful!”

Mr Willcox also questioned Parliament about the effects on the communities, detailing that it’s not just the fishermen’s lives who would be negatively impacted.

“As we know, the fishermen operate in a tough environment, out in the sun and out in the salt. So, they need a lot of shackles, ropes, floats, anchors, all those sorts of things. Without this, the chandlery shops are going to go out of business, and the ice producers.

“The boatbuilders, the repairers, they’re all going to go out of business. The outboard sales and service, going out of business.

“When you take the supply out, the price will go up. So, then, we’ll be relying on more imported fish. So, rather than having fish from our pristine waters… we’ll be importing lesser-quality fish, and prices will be skyrocketing!”

Mr Willcox exclaimed that he will “not be taking this lying down” and has written to the Minister for the Environment and Water, Tanya Plibersek, on this issue.

“I’m calling on Minister Plibersek to come to my electorate, do some community consultation, talk to the fishermen, have a discussion, and see how the fishermen fish!”

Home Hill State High School was broken into over the weekend with the Department of Education confirming the break-in occurred overnight on Sunday, October 15, with damage discovered to the school property on Monday morning.

The incident caused much inconvenience to the school as it was to celebrate its Sports Recognition Parade on Monday morning, forcing the Parade to be postponed to this morning, Thursday, October 19 at 8:45am.

Access to the office was also limited, meaning the school was unable to accept payments and take queries throughout the day.

“The school’s administration building suffered damage to windows and interior furniture such as filing cabinets,” a spokesperson for the Department of Education said.

“No classrooms were affected, and lessons continued as normal.

“The Queensland Police Service has been contacted and the Department will continue to work closely with them as investigations continue.”

Administration staff were relocated to another area of the school while police investigated and cleaning and repairs were undertaken, although regular office administration resumed by Monday afternoon.

“Schools are important community assets that deserve to be protected,” the spokesperson said.

“We want the community to be our eyes and ears and report any suspicious activity to police or contact the School Watch hotline 13 17 88.”

On Sunday October 15, a team of seven Home Hill State High School students were named state champions for the Opti-MINDS media communications category. The students travelled to Brisbane on Friday the 13th after winning the regional level competition, automatically qualifying the team for the state finals where they competed against schools across the state.

Opti-MINDS is a program that is offered to kids in school between preschool to year twelve, providing the opportunity to embark on a proposed challenge in one of the four categories: Language literature, media communications, science engineering and social sciences.

When competing in the regional competition the students were given six weeks to prepare a solution to a proposed stimulus, whilst at the state competition the team only had a total of three hours to tackle the prompt; “influence has its own voice”. One of the team's favourite parts of the solution process was “the light bulb moment one of us had to then kick start our solution process,” Martina Bojack stated. The team’s ten minute presentation was marked on humour, creativity, audience engagement and unpredictability, all areas the students successfully excelled in.

The team had a number of support networks who assisted in sponsoring travel and guiding the team through this opportunity.

“We would like to thank Ms Flynn, Mrs Young and Mr Kingma as well as the local organisations and businesses that assisted with the cost of our travel,” said Jacob Machin on behalf of the team.

The school and the region are extremely proud of the students' efforts and to have walked away as state champions is more than what the students were expecting to get out of this experience.

The controversial closure of the Millaroo community swimming-pool outraged the small township earlier this year, but headway has now been made thanks to open discussions between Millaroo representatives and the Burdekin Shire Council.

A meeting was held this week to explore alternatives to the swimming-pool, with the Council willing to consider other community centred facilities.

They are, however, firmly sticking to their decision to close the swimming-pool permanently.

Frustrations within the community group have simmered considerably, with many Millaroo residents pleased to be working collaboratively and constructively with Council.

Some, however, are still saddened that they no longer have a local swimming-pool.

It was in May this year that the swimming-pool closed for the winter months, a letter sent to residents informing them of the change.

“Everyone used to gather at the pool,” said local resident Jody MacDonald.

“We’d bring down a Weber and a pack of sausages and we all use to spend time together as a community.”

Residents now have to drive 20 minutes to the closest swimming-pool in Clare and are worried that if rumours are true that Council also plan to close this pool, they will need to drive even further into Ayr.

Thankfully Council have confirmed $150,000 will soon be spent on upgrading the Clare pool.

In regards to the Millaroo pool, however, Council states that because it is about 50 years old and coming to the end of its useful life, there was no guarantee of structural integrity moving forward.

Council asserts that it was closed because of “public safety” and that they engaged with a “specialist sport and recreation firm to undertake a review of all Council’s swimming pools”.

“The decision was backed by relevant information and analysis,” said a spokesperson.

“The unacceptable public safety risk, coupled with relatively low usage and significant works to bring the pool up to an acceptable standard, necessitated immediate action to ensure the well-being of the public.

“In addition to the public safety concerns, the Strategy identified that the pool’s pebblecrete finish had reached the end of its useful life, the pool shell is aging and the chemical dosing equipment needed to be replaced.”

Meanwhile, Ms MacDonald says that it was Council’s responsibility to maintain the pool in the first place to ensure it did not reach this level of disrepair.

She also says that the condition of the pool was the reason it was under-used.

Despite the undercurrent of frustration, however, the community has contributed to positive talks with Council who say they are willing to “design, fund and implement alternate community recreation activities in the township”.

On the table, are other facilities that aim to bring the small rural community together.

These include a stage and soundshell at the site which will provide a location for small music festivals and other community events.

Residents are also keen to encourage more visitation to the township and would like to see comfort facilities established.

These include an Up River Trail between Millaroo and Dalbeg where chairs, BBQs and other amenities will be provided for tourists along the way.

Discussions are still underway with projects well received by Council.

It is hoped these discussions will form the basis of a community action plan for Council to work collaboratively with Millaroo residents to implement.

The Ayr Aerodrome is unveiling a new look, with the new fencing project recently completed, within the budget allotted of $285,243.

Ensuring safety and easing operations of the Ayr Aerodrome, the Fencing Project was partially funded from a $139,000 grant from the Australian Government’s Regional Airports Program Round 3, and $146,242 contribution from Burdekin Shire Council.

Burdekin Shire Council Mayor Lyn McLaughlin said the enhanced safety measures achieved through this fencing initiative not only benefits the Royal Flying Doctors, Department of Defence, Ayr Flying Services, commercial helicopter operators and flying enthusiasts but also contributes to the overall resilience of the region.

“The installation of 7125m of 1500mm high stock fence and gates has assured a harmonious environment where aircraft operators and local wildlife, such as macropods and other animals, co-exist without impacting each other within the aerodrome premises,” Mayor McLaughlin said.

“This crucial improvement will also play a vital role during challenging times like flooding, allowing for emergency landings and evacuations when highways are affected.

“I would like to thank the Federal Government for working together with Burdekin Shire Council to deliver this critical safety upgrade and improve aerodrome safety for all local, regional, interstate and defence operators.”

Students at Ayr State High School received free pairs of glasses after the school welcomed OneSight, an initiative providing free eye exams and glasses to schools and communities.

The initiative was brought to the school by School-based Youth Health Nurse Cassandra Arboit who is employed by Queensland Health and has worked with the school for over 13 years.

Ms Arboit works within the student support team which also includes the School Chaplain, Behaviour Support Teacher, Psychologist, Guidance Officers and other staff.

“My role in that is social and emotional support and health promotion with a wellbeing focus,” she said.

Ms Arboit reached out to OneSight who conducted vision screening last term, accessible to all year 7 and 10 students.

Students who required glasses were given a free pair on Monday, October 17 while students who required further appointments were given a vouchers.

146 students and 10 staff members where screened.

“Out of that, there were 55 pairs of glasses issued which is pretty awesome,” Ms Arboit said.

“We got a lot of really positive feedback; parents were very grateful.

Ayr Health Service Director of Nursing and Facility Manager Tracey Gabiola congratulated Ms Arboit on her efforts at the school.

“Cassandra’s achievement is truly amazing and a great testament to her exceptional initiative and motivation in supporting the students at Ayr High,” she added.

The Ayr Health Service has shared their gratitude with the Rotary Club of Ayr following two donations across the last two years totalling $7,000.

Director of Nursing and Facility Manager Tracey Gabiola said the funds will go towards new patient monitoring equipment and thanked one member in particular for her efforts.

“Our community is very fortunate to have the Rotary Club of Ayr support many organisations ,” she said.

“We’re also fortunate to have Amanda (Norton) who’s been an active member in that group for many years and she’s acutely aware of the various items of equipment that we need in our service, so she’s been the conduit between what Rotary can offer, whether it be support for activities or financially.”

Ms Norton works as a Clinical Nurse at Ayr Health Service while filling the role of President with Rotary Club of Ayr, saying money was raised through raffles and the iconic annual Duck Race.

“We need to help our local hospital because we know they need equipment,” she said.

“We’ve definitely had an increase in demand for our services over the past couple of years “added Ms Gabiola.

“Fortunately for us we have organisations such as Rotary who are willing to provide this service to the entire community. “

“These members are volunteers, so we’re always very grateful for any donation.”

Aligning values with the Nature Conservation (Animals) Regulation 2020, The Burdekin Shire Council is effectively monitoring and managing the presence and activities of flying foxes in Kidby’s Gully, Home Hill.

Flying foxes are nocturnal creatures, foraging at night and roosting in the early hours of the morning.

Residents can deter flying foxes by creating noise or placing visual deterrents. These activities have proven most effective within a 45-minute timeframe before sunrise.

The main concern of Burdekin Shire Council is to ensure a co-existence in harmony, between local wildlife and our community, particularly the black flying foxes, said Mayor Lyn McLaughlin.

After careful consideration of factors including legislative requirements, fruiting and flowering seasons of trees, birthing periods and environmental conditions including temperature, the Council has initiated a scheme to address the presence of flying foxes.

“We are striving to strike a balance that safeguards both the natural habitat and the comfort of residents,” Cr McLaughlin said.

“Council has transitioned from recent active disturbance activities to a monitoring and public education stance until January 2024, at which point flying fox numbers and activity will be reassessed.

"Flying foxes generally deliver offspring between September and November, followed by the creching phase during which adults supervise young one’s incapable of sustaining flight until January, management responses will be planned to align with the natural lifecycle of these creatures."

The Burdekin community is urged to promptly report sick or injured wildlife to authorised wildlife carers or contact RSPCA Queensland at 1300 264 625.

A group of passionate Burdekin residents are working hard as the link between the community and the public health system, keeping the people of the Burdekin informed with the region’s hospital happenings.

The Burdekin Community Advisory Network (CAN) is one of five networks in the Townsville Hospital and Health Service catchment area.

Consisting of members of the community, services like police and ambulance and local organisations, CAN meets monthly to discuss and advocate for funding, awareness, and efficiency in the health system.

Burdekin CAN, along with the other networks, is represented at the Consumer Advisory Council which looks at issues across the entire Townsville Hospital and Health Service catchment area from a consumer and community perspective.

Barbara Stockdale is a community member who was appointed to the board of CAN since retiring after 41 years of working with the local council.

“I wanted to be involved in something in the community but didn’t know what was already out there in terms of organisations and support providers,” she said.

“I’m still learning something at every meeting and it’s good to see what goes on in the background because I think a lot of people don’t realise how much is actually involved in the running of a hospital.”

CAN are currently campaigning to secure a CT scanner for Ayr Hospital, a campaign that has been ongoing for over three years.

The campaign has received the support of State Member for Burdekin Dale Last MP and over 2,500 locals thanks to a recent petition.

CAN will be hosting a movie night, a premiere of ‘About My Father’, on Thursday, October 26 to raise awareness for the cause.

“The aim is to get the word out to the community to make them aware and have them backing us like they did through the petition,” Ms Stockdale said.

“Even though they know they can’t assist too much, it’s just a matter of them understanding that the community needs a CT scanner to hopefully save a lot of time for the hospitals and a lot of heartache for patients having to travel to Townsville.

“If we’ve got the public understanding why we need it and they know there’s a need for it, then I think that helps the push from the political side of things as well.”
