Guides and Scouts of Berowra Unite
for CHRISTMAS NIGHT MARKET
Penny Street
had a Dream …
... former Girl Guide, wife to
Gavin and mother of three,
and a Paramedic with NSW
Ambulance Service, Penny’s
passion was to help those less
fortunate in her community
and at the same time unite the
current Guides and Scouts to
join with her in a Christmas
Night Market fundraiser.
Penny said, “The Christmas Night
Market was organised to bring
our two local ‘families’ - Guides
and Scouts - closer together in the
community while raising funds for
equipment and resources for
our youth.”
Penny sought out friends she knew
when they were all ‘young girls
in guiding’ to reunite to achieve
her Dream … for the community.
Together with Karen Finch and
Melissa Knudson … and at The
Bush Tele’s prompting, Penny took
WKLV JUHDW µVHO¿H¶(left) to promote the
Christmas Night Markets to be
held FRIDAY 21st NOVEMBER in
the Berowra Community Centre.
Penny said, “Little did we know that
RQHGD\ZHZRXOG¿QGRXUVHOYHVVWLOO
as friends and in the roles of District
Managers and Leaders, working
together once again.”

As 2014 draws to an end and we get closer to Christmas and
the New Year, I have been reﬂecting on Hornsby Shire
Council’s performance over the past twelve months. Our role
in local government is to provide a range of services to the
community, and since we are using ratepayer’s money to do
so, I believe it is vital that we are ﬁnancially responsible with
our budget. One of the achievements I am most proud
of as Mayor is the strong ﬁnancial position Council
is in – our data indicates that all of our key
ﬁnancial indicators have substantially improved in
2014. This is an excellent result, and I strive to
continue delivering high-quality services to
Hornsby Shire residents in the most
cost-effective way possible.
The next Council meeting is on
Wednesday 10 December at 6.30pm

Dogs on the Run
Story & photo by Cllr Mick Gallagher of Mt Colah
Recently I put a notice in the Mt Colah Neighbourhood Watch
asking residents how they would like their rates
spent in Mt Colah.
Among the replies were a playground on the east side/school side of the
highway, and an unleashed dog area for Mt Colah.
The nearest unleashed dog areas to Mt Colah at present are Berowra
Heights and Asquith.
“I have been to both these areas which can be busy at times,” said Lucy
Barker who has initiated an area for Mt Colah.
“I am a newcomer to Mt Colah and so having an area to meet local dog
owners in a community social setting seemed a good idea,” added Lucy.
I met up with Lucy and some other dog owners at Oxley Reserve in Beryl
Ave on Mon 03 Nov. All were keen for an area to be set aside in Mt Colah.
Whilst there, I also met up with some nearby neighbours who had some
concerns with the usage of the reserve and the need for an upgrade of the
reserve.
“Although I have suggested 2[OH\5HVHUYH,VKDOOOHDYHDQ\¿QDO
outcome to my A Ward Councillors and Hornsby Council staff on the most
appropriate area for Mt Colah,” said Lucy.
Dave Barker (formerly of Thornleigh) and Lucy (nee Power) of Baulkham
Hills moved to the leafy suburb of Mt Colah 2 years ago. Recently on

POLICE NEWS
FRONT COVER STORY
Continued ...
Crime Prevention Officer,
Snr Con Paul Cleary says:
Hornsby Police has recently taken
reports of stealing from vehicle
incidents.
Lock it or Lose it! Of concern
is a large number of these reports
involved cars that did NOT have
the doors locked. On several
occasions cars in the Berowra
area were left overnight unlocked
with one car having a handbag left
on the passenger seat. To a thief
this is way too tempting and gives
the area a name (easy target for
future thefts and possible house
breaks). So please don’t leave
spare change, property or anything
of value in sight inside your car and
remember to lock the doors.
Be Alert to Break-ins: Just
to alert everyone there has been
attempted house break-ins in
Rosamond & Silvia Streets Hornsby
last week, so they seem to be
active in the Mt Wilga Hospital area
and in the early hours too. Take
extra precautions if you can and
DOVROHDYHVRPHJURXQGÀRRUOLJKWV
on.
Door Knockers: If you are
approached by someone asking for
donations please do a little research
and don’t always rely on what you
are told by them. Scammers and
con-artists are very well versed in
what to say.
Any information please call
Hornsby police 9476 9799 or
Crime Stoppers
1800 333 000.
Please also note, a lot of
organisations and charities rely on
donations and I encourage anyone
looking to donate, to do so through
RI¿FLDO
websites;
that way
your
money is
getting to
where you
want it to
go & to
the people
who need
it.
“At the same time we will also
be collecting items for the “The
Dish” which is the Hornsby Shire
food service for people in our area
experiencing homelessness,” said
Penny.
Donations of long life foods and
personal items like toiletries will
be accepted on the night of the
Christmas Markets.
The Christmas Night Market
will be held on Friday 21st
November from 5 till 9pm at
Berowra Community Centre,
The Gully Road, Berowra.
There will be a host of exciting
markets stalls, food vendors,
HQWHUWDLQPHQWUDIÀHVFRIIHHFDUW
community stalls and heaps more!
Just the place to do some serious
Christmas shopping!
We hope to see you all for a
wonderful night.

‘in the round!’
Be on the lookout
during
Turtle
Month!
We are all being urged
to be on the lookout for
turtles during November
to help researchers better
understand how to protect
these native creatures as
they leave the safety of the
water to lay their eggs on
dry land.
The University of Western Sydney
is launching Turtle Month in
November to raise awareness
about the incredible danger facing
female turtles as they make the
transformation from graceful aquatic
survivors to slow and defenceless
landlubbers.
As part of Turtle Month, the
University is calling on people to
download the TurtleSAT app,
which gives users the chance to log
turtle sightings to help researchers
develop new protection strategies.
The TurtleSAT app is a
simple tool with a big impact.
By recording the location and
species of turtles spotted in the wild,
users are giving Australian scientists
the edge in tracking where turtles
make their nests.
“Female turtles are up against it
when they leave the safety of the
water to lay their eggs,” said Dr
Ricky Spencer, from the UWS
School of Social Science and Health.
“Drought and urban development
may have taken away all the old
nesting spots, roads and cars are
often in their way, and once the
HJJVDUH¿QDOO\ODLGIR[HVDQGRWKHU
predators can sniff them out and eat
them before they’ve had a chance
to hatch.”

BUSH TELE LETTERS
Dear Bush Tele,
Alex Kozlovski (TBTW Letters
23/10/14) is correct in noting that
the new footpath on Berowra
Waters Road – which has been built
around existing power poles – may

a solution for the local community
since Hornsby Council applied
for these poles to be relocated in
February 2014 (not in 2013, as has
been indicated.)
Council engaged its own consultant
to prepare a design for the
relocation of the poles, and this
proposal was lodged with Ausgrid
in May 2014. We asked for design
changes to ensure the plans
complied with network and safety
standards, and the revised design

Ausgrid in September.
Council has advised that it is
currently selecting a contractor to
carry out the pole relocations. The
timeframe for these works now
rests largely with Council and its
contractor.
Ausgrid will continue to assist
Council as it works to complete its
project, while ensuring any impact
on a safe and reliable power supply
to the area is minimised.
Peter Gledhill, Regional Manager,
Ausgrid
Dear Bush Tele,
I see Hornsby Council is inviting
UHVLGHQWVWRWKHRI¿FLDORSHQLQJRI
Hornsby Pool and celebrations at
Hornsby Park in November.
They are also asking people to ride
bikes instead of driving cars and
WKH\ZLOOUH¿OOWKHLUZDWHUERWWOHV
instead of buying and discarding
plastic ones.
Good move as we need to be
more environmental and socially
conscious.
I notice Hornsby Park does have
a couple of water bubblers from
many years ago but I can’t see any
shared cycle ways leading to the
pool or around the CBD despite
millions of residents dollars being
spent on roads and footpaths in
Hornsby CBD over the last few
years.
Cycle ways could have been
provided for little cost with a little
forward planning when they were
doing the roads and footpaths.
Is anybody listening?

OFFERING ETHICAL ALTERNATIVES!
‘‘Should we tell on people who
do the wrong thing?’’ ‘‘What are
secrets, and when is it OK to tell
them?’’ and ‘‘Do rules apply to
everyone?’’ These are some of
the questions being answered at
Wideview Public School in ethics
classes. Classes at the school have
been running successfully every
Wednesday since the beginning
of the school year in 2014. Since
2011, children who don’t attend
Special Religious Education (SRE/
scripture) classes have had an
option to go to philosophical ethics
classes run by the charity, Primary
Ethics. Ethics classes were
approved by the NSW parliament in
December 2010.
The Primary Ethics program at
Wideview moved from just a
possibility to reality when two
parents with children at the school
EHFDPHLWV¿UVWYROXQWHHUHWKLFV
teachers. All ethics teachers are
supported by an ethics co-ordinator
and, in Wideview’s case, this is
local resident, Judith Ellis. The
program at Wideview has gone
from strength to strength in its short
WLPHDQGQRZ¿QGVLWQHHGVPRUH
volunteer teachers from the wider
community so that classes can be
offered as an option for all students
from Kindy through to Year 6.
Isaac Truskett-Jones, a Year
3 student, is enthusiastic about
participating in ethics. “Ethics is
fun”, he said. “We learn about doing
the right thing. We make new
friends”. His older brother, Jake,
who is in Year 6 equally enjoys the
experience, saying “It’s really social.
We all get a say. The scenarios to
talk about are challenging and fun”.
Their mother, Karen, feels it is a
fantastic opportunity for the boys
to develop an insight into today’s
ethical dilemmas. “They develop
skills of empathy and understanding
of how other people feel,” she said.
The principal of Wideview, Kim
McTernan, said that he was
extremely happy with the level
of support for the current ethics
classes and wanted to ensure all
students wishing to participate were
accommodated with an increase in
the number of volunteer teachers.
He said that he liked the idea that
the children are taught to look at
ethical issues from all sides and
are then encouraged to make
8
up their own minds on the issue,
based on logic and sound reasons.
“The main focus of the school is
teaching students to be life-long
learners and the processes utilised
in the ethics classes lends itself to
this philosophy and help equip the
children with the ability to make
informed and sensible decisions,”
he added.
Mr. McTernan said that the addition
of a Kindergarten curriculum
for ethics has paved the way
for students enrolling in 2015 to
participate in ethics classes from
Kindergarten to Year 6.
Judith Ellis said that ethics is not
about telling children what to think,
but teaching them how to think. The
curriculum engages the students in
discussion and encourages them to
build their own opinions about topics
such as boasting, fairness, and
sharing, while listening to the opinions
of other students. She added that all
volunteer teachers received training
and follow a curriculum designed
for people with no experience with
teaching or discussing philosophy
with primary school-aged students.
Volunteer ethics teachers must be
able to commit to 30-40 minutes
of class time each Wednesday,
as well as a similar amount of
preparation time at home.
Anyone interested in volunteering
to be an ethics teacher should
visit the Primary Ethics website at
http://www.primaryethics.com.au
or contact Wideview Public School

HEALTH AND BEAUTY
PRICELESS
PEARLS
By Ralph Estherby
He could remember
his name, his age, the day of the
week, and what he had been doing
a few minutes before but he could
not remember the accident or what
happened immediately after…
I was visiting this young man in hospital
who had suffered a pretty severe knock
to the head after a fall of about five
metres – at first there were concerns
that he had spinal injuries but thankfully
things were not as bad as they first
seemed and he would be OK in time –
just a bit fuzzy in the memory stakes for
a couple of weeks.
It reminded me of a time when I
couldn’t remember – I was the one
who had fallen of my bike and knocked
myself out – I recall that for weeks
afterwards I struggled to remember
some words and my reactions were
slowed and I just felt like I was walking
through a fog.
This week we have celebrated
Remembrance Day – the
commemoration of the moment that
the guns fell silent at the end of the First
World War. All over the country and
around the world we slowed down for
a few moments and remembered what
had been sacrificed and achieved for
us by those who have gone before.
The only thing that ensures that this
memorial occurs and is taken seriously
is our willingness and determination to
remember.
When I left the hospital I went back to
my car – or I attempted to go back to
my car – the problem was that I was
in a Hospital that I had never visited
before and although I knew that I had
parked on level 5 I had no idea how
to get back through the ‘rabbit warren’
of corridors to where I was parked.
Eventually after two failed attempts
I circled around the building and
climbed the staircase to find my car.
So many things surround us that we
should remember: our PIN numbers;
our passwords; where we parked our
cars… but various ‘knocks to the head’
hinder us: our busyness; the complexity
of life and; how long ago did we review
the item that is important…
It would be a terrible thing if no-one
remembered next Remembrance Day,
it seems inconceivable but we don’t
always recall the good others have
done for us.
“Bless the LORD, and do not forget not
all His benefits: … He satisfies your
mouth with good things, and makes
you new” Psalms 103:2–5
Let’s make sure that we never
forget all He has done!

MEN LESS STRESSED:
New Survey Says
HOW SAFE IS
YOUR CHILD’S
VEHICLE
RESTRAINT?
Make sure your child travels safely
in the car by attending Hornsby
Shire Council’s Child Restraint
Safety Checking Day on Monday
24 November.
To be held at the Thornleigh Brickpit
Sports Stadium, parents and carers
can have their child restraints,
harnesses and booster seats checked
for safety and correct fit by an
authorised restraint fitter.
Attendance at this free event is by
appointment only by booking with
Council’s Road Safety Officer on
9847 6856 or 9847 6616.
Australian women experiencing higher
levels of stress and lower levels of
wellbeing than men.
A new survey shows Australian men are
doing better than women when it comes
to stress and wellbeing with men reporting
higher levels of wellbeing and lower levels
of stress than their female counterparts.
Released for National Psychology Week
(9-15 November) the Stress and Wellbeing
in Australia survey 2014, conducted by the
Australian Psychological Society (APS), found
that, for the first time, men have significantly
higher levels of wellbeing than women.
The annual survey provides a yearly snapshot
of the overall wellbeing of Australians,
suggesting 2014 was a tougher year for women, with the fairer sex reporting
significantly higher levels of stress.
Family and personal finance issues were identified as the leading sources of
stress for both sexes, but these factors are having a greater effect on women.
More than half (53%) of Australian women cite personal financial issues as a
major source of stress, compared to just 44 per cent of men.
Professor Lyn Littlefield, Executive Director of the APS, said identifying sources
of stress is the first step to effectively managing stress.
“Stress can have an extremely detrimental effect on a person’s mental and
physical health. It’s important to first identify the cause of stress to work towards
avoiding the source, or adopting stress management behaviours,” Professor
Littlefield said.
More than 70 per cent (72%) of Australians reported their current stress
levels had an impact on their physical health. Worryingly, more than
60 per cent (64%) reported current stress levels had an impact on their
mental health.
Women also reported a greater impact of stress on their health.
Identifying warning signs and triggers,
establishing workable routines, keeping
healthy, changing negative ‘self-talk’, practising
relaxation and getting appropriate support are
suggested by the APS as effective measures to
manage stress.
“Talking about mental health is difficult for a lot of
Australians. National Psychology Week provides an
opportunity to start a conversation, or encourage
Australians who might be struggling to ask for help,”
Professor Littlefield said.
The APS provides a free referral service for
the general public, GPs and other health
professionals who are seeking the advice and
assistance of a psychologist at
www.findapsychologist.org.au.

In Memory of
Gordon Knight
9 June 1940 - 4 September 2014
The family of Gordon Knight would
like to thank the many people who
attended his funeral and expressed
their condolences when he passed
away in September. He made many
friends in his 45 years in Berowra and
loved living here.
Gordon enjoyed finding out about
the local news via The Bush Telegraph
Weekly and many may recognise
his name as a regular contributor
to “Letters to the Editor”. His wry
sense of humour and mock outrage
translated well onto the page on many
occasions.
Those who knew him will remember
him (in his words, but correctly) as a
gentleman and a scholar. He will be
greatly missed.
Thank you
The Knight Family
ORANGUTAN … seen on Dangar Island
Islanders and visitors gathered on
Saturday 1st November at a Dangar
Island cocktail party fundraiser for The
Orangutan Project (TOP).
The event was hosted by Peter Wolfe
and Lynda Dryden at the Bali House
on Bradleys Beach on Dangar Island.
Over 60 guests heard from Gail
Browning, NSW Volunteer CoOrdinator about the role that TOP
plays in protecting the rain forest to
provide habitat for orangutans and
other threatened species, and in
rehabilitating orangutans displaced
through the spread of palm oil
plantations.
Gail informed guests about the
importance of avoiding products
containing palm oil.
“The expansion of palm oil
plantations is the main cause of
deforestation in Borneo and Sumatra,
and often leads to adult orangutans
being killed and their babies
orphaned,” said Gail.
Long Live …
The King of Coffee!
Triple H 100.1 FM Listeners crowned Black Mocha Cafe in Turramurra
as King of Coffee for the Hornsby/Ku-Ring-Gai area, announced at a
function on Monday 3rd November.
TOP funds orphanages and protects
areas of remaining rainforest. A
‘guest orangutan’ came along to
reinforce the message and was
pleased to find that all the canapés
and cocktails prepared by Lynda and
her team were palm oil free.
Peter and Lynda encourage Islanders
to safeguard an area of rainforest the
size of Dangar Island for $35 a year.
Many have taken up the challenge
already and donations are still
coming in. Supporters have passed
the $4000 mark already.
Locals Urged to Take up the
Challenge
“Other communities in Hornsby
Shire take up the challenge for their
local area and would be pleased to
advise them on setting up events,”
said Peter.
There is a chance to meet up
with Leif Cocks, President of The
Orangutan Project Australia when he
Station Manager Philippa Bird
said, “Triple H 100.1 FM listeners
from the area were invited to
nominate their favourite coffee
shop to enter the King of Coffee
competition.”
“We had more than 50 nominations,
and 30 coffee shops entered. By
the closing date, we’d received over
2000 votes and the winner, by a
margin of 100 votes, was The Black
Mocha Cafe on Pacific Highway in
Turramurra, said Philippa.
The award function was a great
success, with “The Hubbub” being
broadcast live from the Black Mocha,
to the delight of guests, who feasted
on delicious canapes and sweet treats
freshly made by Claudette Osterberg.
Co-owner, John Osterberg was on
hand to supervise the preparation of
his signature winning coffees.
Philippa said, “Thanks to the
popularity with listeners and coffee
shop owners alike, we will be running
a similar competition annually.”

It is not necessary to put up with HEEL PAIN "says Mrs. Chard PODIATRIST.
There are several causes of heel pain the most common being PLANTAR FASCIITIS
Plantar Fasciitis is simply inflammation of the big strong band on the bottom of the foot
(the plantar fascia). Symptoms usually begin as a "stone bruise" type of pain increasing to
chronic pain especially first thing in the morning or after rest. Sometimes there may be a sense
that something tears or "gives" in the arch of the foot during sport.
This kind of pain is easily treated by realigning and supporting the foot and leg which reduces
the trauma allowing the injured foot to recover.
FOOT AND LEG PAIN prevents patients of all ages from enjoying daily exercise such as
walking thus creating a vicious cycle.
Pain - no exercise - weight increase - more pain. Results in High blood pressure, Diabetes,
Joint abuse, surgical replacements etc
An easy mobility program is specifically devised for individual patients to break the cycle and
return to a healthy lifestyle.
