Four directors of those preschool are now warning the changes could force staff cuts, reduce support for vulnerable children and threaten the future of some of the shire’s most valued early education services. In a special interview with The Weekly, the directors sat down to detail the finan- cial pressures facing their not-for-profit services under the NSW Government’s new “Universal Preschool Fund” model, commencing January 1, 2027. The projected $1.34 million reduction across nine Tweed preschools was calcu- lated by local service representatives, who fear the consequences will extend well beyond budgets and will impact educators, children and families. But the educators fear another more diabolical plot is being orchestrated to undermine their preschools in favour of a public preschool model. Possums Preschool director Karen Shackel, who has worked in early child- hood education for 34 years, said she had never experienced such uncertainty. “I have never experienced a loss of fund- ing and such a troubling and scary time for children,” she said. Rosella’s Community Preschool director Lisa Bilson said her service was facing a projected $175,000 reduction in Start Strong funding next year, with additional losses expected in funding for children with high support needs. She said the impact would include “a reduction in staffing levels”, but stressed that reducing enrolments would only make matters worse. “We need to maintain our enrolments to be able to get that level of funding. If we drop enrolments, our funding also decreases further,” she said. At Possums Preschool, Ms Shackel said funding would fall by approximately $114,000 in 2027, increasing to $170,000 in 2028. “What the government is doing with the new universal preschool funding model is demanding that we maintain high-quality services and practices, but they’re only going to fund us on minimum child-to-ed- ucator ratios,” she said. She warned that reduced staffing could compromise supervision and support for children. “This is just going to put more pressure on our sector. I’m really frightened,” she said. Kingscliff Mini School director Krystal Drew said her service faced a projected $103,000 annual funding reduction, although transitional assistance would reduce the immediate 2027 shortfall to approximately $63,000. She warned that operating within the staffing levels supported by the new fund- ing model could mean losing almost half the preschool’s 21 employees. “We’re looking at reducing our staffing. We’re looking at remodelling our pre- school program, not being able to offer the quality care and services that we offer, and benefits to the families and support,” Ms Drew said. “We’ve got 21 staff. And if we were to operate at the capacity that we’re being funded for, I would lose a good, almost half of those staff.” Tyalgum Community Preschool director Tracey McCarthy said her small rural preschool faced a $29,000 reduction next year. Operating three days a week and licensed for 20 children, Tyalgum preschool has relied on a Start Strong safety-net payment to remain financially viable. “Under the new

*Redeemable for 1 month from publication date Why not slow down this deadly stretch of road Regarding your article on the stretch of M1 between Fingal and Chinderah to be listed as a black spot is stating the blooming obvious (TVW, Novem- ber 5, page 18). If I’m not mistaken that’s the stretch with a speed limit of 110km per hour before the change to 100km/hr. There has been numerous truck roll overs there too. And their answer is what? A $30-million-dollar audible and tactile warning line to drivers when they deviate from their lane. Are you kidding me? How about a speed reduction for starters. A reduction of 10km/hr can make all the difference. I always make it a habit to drive on the inside (left) lanes when I’m on that stretch. But hey, not everyone has common sense. Mike Minas, Tweed Heads Mortgage pain Mortgage holders now face another interest rate rise, the fifth this year and the eighteenth since May 2022, from 0.1 percent then to 4.85 percent now. That increase costs the average mortgage holder aged 35 to 44 with a young family an extra $19,000 a year. Many are losing more than twice that in interest and another $9,000 (on average) in the value of their home every month since April, as I predicted in a letter to the TVW after the May budget. Rising building costs and rental demands will eventually put a floor under these falling prices. The cause for all this pain is not just the Iran war and high oil prices, which were much higher in 2008, but also increased demand (spending) pushing the inflation rate up to 4.3 percent, compared to 3.7 percent in NZ. We all spend too much on unneces- sary stuff, especially imported stuff. About 20 per cent of our purchased food goes to waste and another 20 percent goes to our waist (IE as sur- plus fat). Government spending, both state and federal, much of it on needless renewables, bureaucratic regulation and abuse of the NDIS has contrib- uted greatly to inflation and the con- sequent mortgage pain.

I have resided in the Tweed Shire for over 45 years and I cannot under- stand in this day and age, that cane farmers are still permitted to burn cane. They do not do it any longer in North Queensland. There seems to be no restriction on, direction of wind and the strength of that wind when the cane is lit. Surrounding areas, some 20 kilome- tres away, wear the result of the cane burn, “the black snow”. At least three times, this season, with a southerly wind blowing, Tweed Heads and sur- rounding suburbs have had a shower of black snow. Its indiscriminate, and if you try to remove it, it turns to soot. As the Tweed Valley has become more populated, the burning of cane has now effected more and more peo- ple. As the cane industry is classified as a primary industry in the Tweed Val- ley, where is the EPA in this matter, as I consider it a form of pollution? I’m told that farmers get more sugar from it, if it’s set alight in the field. I would be interested to know the actual statistics on that reason. I acknowledge that there are differ- ent varieties of cane and perhaps dif- ferent growing conditions. However, I think that the time has come for cane farmers to be eco aware and adopt a sustainable and safer method to har- vest cane, looking forward.

In a joint statement to The Weekly, the councillors said they had “resigned from the NSW Liberal Party and will continue on Council as independents.” “What changes for the community? Lit- erally nothing. Our values, our work ethic and what we stand for don’t change. The difference is we’re now independent and free from party politics,” the statement said. “We want to be very clear: we have no political party membership pending and no intention of joining any other political party. We’re remaining truly independent. “After careful consideration, we feel this better reflects our goal of being the strongest representatives we can be for the Tweed Shire: working hard, delivering outcomes, and taking the community’s voice to Council and to the state and fed- eral governments.” The original announcement did not men- tion whether they intended to join another political party, prompting speculation on- line, with one supported suggesting they join One Nation. One supporter asked whether Cr Owen would continue to represent the conser- vative values he was elected on. “I can assure you my values will re- main as they’ve always been,” Cr Owen responded. Several locals expressed support, de- scribing it as a “great move”. Others have speculated that Cr Owen could contest the seat of Tweed as an in- dependent at the NSW state election on March 13, 2027. If he does, he could face the incumbent Member for Tweed, Nationals MP Geoff Provest, who has already been preselected to contest the 2027 election. Under the NSW Coalition arrangement, the Liberals and Nationals would not ordi- narily field competing candidates against each other in the same electorate. Rhiannon Brinsmead was elected as a Tweed Shire Council councillor in De- cember 2021, where she ran on a ticket with Cr Owen. She has served for nearly five years. Rhiannon Brinsmead was a Liberal Par- ty Senate candidate in the 2025 Federal Election for NSW on a ticket under Sen- ator Andrew Bragg. James Owen has been a Tweed Shire councillor since November 2016. In 2024, Cr Owen’s Liberal ticket won 14,262 votes, 28.5 per cent of the vote, while Community Independents, headed by Chris Cherry, received 7,574 votes, or 15.1 per cent, and the Labor Party, headed by current mayor Reece Byrnes, received 7,235 votes or 14.5 per cent. Cr Owen joined the NSW Liberal Party about 19 years ago and went on to become its NSW Country and Regional Vice-Pres- ident and a member of the State Execu- tive, which shared responsibility for the party’s strategic, financial and governance oversight. Ahead of the September 2024 NSW lo- cal government elections, the Liberal Par- ty failed to submit candidate nomination forms by the NSW Electoral Commission deadline, resulting in 140 candidates being disqualified. Cr Owen lost his position on the party’s executive when the Liberal Party went into federal administration. He was later appointed to a temporary, seven-member management committee, but that role ended when the federal in- tervention replaced the party’s traditional state executive structure. Cr Owen is also the president of Busi- ness Kingscliff.

6 Local News Thursday, November 12, 2026 Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals Council’s asset review rattles clubs THE BIGGEST review in a generation of Tweed Shire Council’s publicly owned land and facilities could result in sporting clubs and community organisations entering new rent and lease agreements to sure up the future of public assets. The far-reaching review has already raised eyebrows among some local sporting clubs where members fear a market-based rent, for example, could threaten their financial viability. However, council has stressed that no deci- sions have been made, no rent increases have been approved and clubs will be consulted throughout the process. The issue came to light after a Kingscliff resident, from a sporting club, contacted The Weekly expressing alarm about a possible asset review. “Rent based on land values would be unsus- tainable for our club, which has served our community well for more than fifty years,” the resident, who did not want to be named, said. Following the concerns raised, The Weekly contacted Council’s Director of Sustainable Communities and Environment, Naomi Sear- le, seeking clarification. Ms Searle said the review was examining how leases, licences, fees and subsidies for community facilities could be managed fairly and sustainably. “Council also has a responsibility to ensure these public assets can be maintained and managed sustainably over the long term,” she said. “The review is therefore looking at how Council can continue to support communi- ty organisations while ensuring the costs of maintaining and renewing facilities are shared in a fair and sustainable way across facility users, Council and the broader community.” Asked whether clubs could face rents based on commercial land values, Ms Searle said no model had been selected. “No approach has been determined. Coun- cil is currently exploring a range of possible models and seeking feedback from existing licence and lease holders about what a fair and workable framework could look like,” she said. “No changes or rent increases have been de- termined for any individual club at this stage.” Many Tweed sporting clubs rely heavily on volunteers, membership fees and fundraising to maintain facilities and provide affordable activities for local families, which was ac- knowledged by Ms Searle, who said council recognised these challenges and had already begun consulting affected organisations. “Affordability is an important consideration in the review,” she said. At a stakeholder workshop on October 21, Council presented existing lease and licence holders with possible funding models and sought feedback on their financial and oper- ational impacts. “No preferred model has been selected, and no decision has been made that sporting clubs will pay higher rents,” Ms Searle said. She also dismissed suggestions the review was designed to facilitate property sales. “The sale or redevelopment of Council prop- erties is not part of this review,” she said. Council is currently examining existing fa- cility costs, rental revenue and arrangements used by other councils. Feedback from sporting clubs and com- munity organisations will help shape a draft policy, with further consultation promised before recommendations are presented to councillors. “Council is already engaging with commu- nity organisations and existing facility users specifically so their experience and feedback can help shape the framework before decisions are made,” Ms Searle said. Councillor Meredith Dennis has shared her views on the review and is initially supportive of a new community assets model. Cr Dennis is also the president and a founder of Tweed Palliative Support a not-for-profit and told The Weekly she understands the cost pressures on all community organisations and their concerns about the fee model review. “However, if any organisation using council assets is charging fees, I believe it’s only fair that something comes back to council,” she said. “When I say “council” I mean the money comes back to ratepayers, which is important, as these assets are owned by the public. “We must consider that these community assets cost ratepayers and those costs are going up. “I am supportive of this model, but I do believe it requires more consultation and consideration to make it fair and equitable for everyone.” YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you use a coun- cil-owned facility? Do you support a proposed review of fees for community facilities?

The lessons are led by a group of Year 12 students from Murwillumbah High School who are completing their Certifi cate III in Fitness as part of their senior studies. The high school students planned and delivered the entire sessions, organising four engaging activity rotations designed to develop a range of physical skills while encouraging participation and teamwork. Our enthusiastic Stage 2 students eagerly participated in all four rotations, practicing their ball skills, hand-eye coordination, teamwork and cooperation. The activities provided a wonderful opportunity for students to challenge themselves, learn new skills and build confidence in a fun and supportive environment. The program also gave the Year 12 students valuable practical experience in planning and delivering physical activities, helping them develop the skills and confi dence needed for future careers in the fi tness industry. Murwillumbah Public School is proud to support opportunities that connect students across different stages of learning. Experiences like these highlight the value of community partnerships, hands-on learning and staying active while having fun! This is a great example of our local school working alongside our local public high school to ensure smooth transitions between primary and secondary learning in our community. 00654 Murwillumbah Public School HP ITV announce grant recipients The 2026 ITV grant recipients - celebrating 10 years THE ITV Tweed Community initia- tive Fund grants program is pleased to announce this year’s successful grant recipients after the program received 36 applicants at its closer in late Sep- tember. Now in its 10th year the ITV Studios community initiative gives back to pro- vide grass roots not-for-profit groups a boost of around $2,500 each to get local projects and initiatives underway. Approximately $51,000 will be dis- tributed to local groups in the coming weeks, slightly more than usual due to a small surplus in the fund. “ITV Studios have been able to fund 21 requests this year due to a small surplus in the fund,” Lanie Loughlin, Community Liaison Officer for ITV, said. “After Tweed Coast Youth Service sadly closed in 2025, ITV Studios kept a surplus in the fund, paying it forwards this year to enable an extra project to go ahead.” Applications were evaluated by an independent panel of community leaders who donated their time and service to scoring. The 2026 panellists were Karina Appo, Jennifer Booth and John Sped- ding. Congratulations to the following local community organisations who will receive ITV funding in 2026.

News of the alleged assault sparked out- rage among the local community, drawing public condemnation from more than 700 people online. Jason Keelan, who is currently displaced and living in a tent, took to social media with a confronting account of how he was struck by a shopping trolley thrown at his makeshift home while he slept, along with a photo of a deep cut to his head. “Last night I was attacked while I slept inside my home (which is a tent),” he said. “To the few young 20-year-old cowards that feel some sort of self-entitlement to attack unexpected victims, this is not moving forward. “There is no place for this type of igno- rance, as I think it stems from generational division in this town.” Jason said he had grown up in Murwil- lumbah, and that he still loved the town and its community, despite what he de- scribed as an ugly side of local attitudes. Jason had a home for many years and was a much-loved family man with chil- dren living locally, but a relationship breakdown saw him struggle to find affordable accommodation and subse- quently work. The impact of the trolley was so severe Ja- son was concerned he may have fractured skull, but said he was grateful no one else was injured, suggesting it reflected a poor influence from the perpetrators’ parents. Many commenters online expressed out- rage, with some calling the assault “disgusting” and “appalling,” with several who know Jason calling him “a gentleman.” Retired teacher Trevor Reece called for the in- cident to be discussed in local schools, saying it was an opportunity to address “ethics and humanity” and promote compassion, em- pathy and responsibility. Meanwhile, a friend of Jason’s confirmed he had been “patched up” and praised the “beautiful community spirit”

State Member for Lismore Janelle Saffin has confirmed recruitment is progressing, with the final five positions now funded and recruitment underway. The announcement marks an important mile- stone for Murwillumbah residents and sur- rounding villages, where community members have campaigned for greater police resources and a permanent 24-hour policing station in Murwillumbah. Ms Saffin described the progress as a win for the community, which has repeatedly raised concerns about police availability and response times outside normal station operating hours. “I am pleased to share an update which I requested and received from NSW Minister for Police and Counter-terrorism Yasmin Catley recently,” Ms Saffin said. The commitment to provide 15 additional police positions was made ahead of the 2023 NSW election, with recruitment divided into four phases to progressively increase the sta- tion’s operational capacity. Ms Saffin said the first three phases had been completed, with the final stage now underway. “Minister Catley has confirmed that the re- maining five positions were funded on 1 July 2026, under Phase 4, with recruitment currently underway to fill these positions,” she said. “It should be noted that the phased approach was agreed on to deliver on the 2023 election commitment to enable 24/7 operation in 2027.” Ms Saffin said the government was working to address broader police staffing challenges across NSW. “Minister Catley tells me the Command is working very hard to fill positions and increase operational capacity,” she said. “Recent financial incentives, police award enhancements and recruitment drives are all aimed at rebuilding the NSW Police Force.” The campaign dates back at least 2007, when the need for a 24-hour Murwillumbah police station was raised in NSW Parliament. Residents were preparing a month-long cam- paign encouraging people to report crime to demonstrate the need for greater police re- sources. The campaign was still active in October 2018, when a petition carrying 670 signatures was presented to the NSW Legislative Council calling for fully staffed, round-the-clock police services in Murwillumbah, Tweed Heads and Kingscliff, along with increased patrols in sur- rounding villages.

12 Local News Thursday, November 12, 2026 Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals00590 Chinderah Tavern HP 00656 Banora Dentures QP Roadside mess! A TWEED resident is calling out litterbugs and urging council to clean-up rubbish scat- tered along Tweed Valley Way, warning that the growing litter problem is both an eyesore and threat to the environment. Murwillumbah resident Justin Willment wrote to The Weekly to raise concerns about the amount of rubbish, mostly plastics, strewn along the roadside between the northern end of Tumbulgum and Bruce Chick Conservation Park, heading towards Tweed Heads. Mr Willment said the problem had become even more noticeable following the recent road- side vegetation clearing, exposing discarded items including an old oil drum, clothing, plas- tics and food wrappers. Increased roadside rubbish collection has been a point that Councillor James Owen has also campaigned for on numerous occasions. However, much of these efforts have been stifled by safety concerns and cost implications, which have been cited as prohibitive despite residents repeatedly raising the matter. Mr Willment said he believes council should act now while the roadside remains accessible, before vegetation regrows and makes collecting the rubbish more difficult. “I first contacted Tweed Shire Council by email on October 16 but received no response,” he said. He followed up with a telephone call on Oc- tober 21, reporting the issue under reference number RDS26/1954. Mr Willment said the litter was not only un- sightly along one of the shire’s major roads but could also pose environmental risks to the adjacent river and its ecosystem. “With the roadside vegetation recently cut back, I believe there is an ideal opportunity for a thorough clean-up,” he said. “I have also supplied photographs showing rubbish scattered along the roadside, including larger discarded items.” Mr Willment is now hoping Council will respond to his concerns and arrange for the rubbish to be removed before the vegetation grows back. The issue, for many including Mr Willment, also raises broader concerns about roadside maintenance and the impact of illegally discard- ed rubbish on the Tweed’s natural environment. YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you think roadsides require a consorted effort to clean them up? Or is it too dangerous? The Weekly is interested in your thoughts and letters via email: editor@ theweekly.net.au By Jonathon Howard Some examples of the layers of large and small waste Plastics of all types are strewn across Tweed's roadside, says Mr Willment

Our water. Tweed Shire Council wishes to acknowledge the Ngandowal and Minyungbal speaking people of Bundjalung Country, in particular the Goodjinburra, Tul-gi-gin and Moorung – Moobah clans, as being the traditional owners and custodians of the land and waters within the Tweed Shire boundaries. Council also acknowledges and respects the Tweed Aboriginal community’s right to speak for its Country and to care for its traditional Country in accordance with its lore, customs and traditions. 172 L a day Council’s Waste Education Officer Angie Burnheim stands in front of recycled cans at Tweed’s material recovery facility. National Recycling Week turns 30 This week marks 30 years of National Recycling Week, since it began in 1996. Australia’s national recycling rate has grown from just 7 per cent to more than 60 per cent. The Tweed community is part of this story, with more than 21,000 tonnes of material diverted from landfill just last year. Thirty years on, the message is simple: reduce what you use, reuse what you can and recycle it right. Council’s Waste Education Officer Angie Burnheim said most residents want to do the right thing when it comes to recycling. “The majority of us are keen to use our bins correctly, but knowing exactly where something goes isn't always easy," she said. "National Recycling Week is a great opportunity to get back to basics. Check what belongs in your bins, find out where you can recycle items that can’t go into your kerbside recycling bin, and think about whether something can be repaired, reused or given a second life before throwing it away.” Residents who are unsure about where an item belongs can use Council’s Waste Wizard, a quick online search tool that provides local disposal and recycling information for hundreds of household items. Visit tweed.nsw.gov.au/waste-wizard "You would be surprised by the number of items that belong in your yellow-lid recycling bin; things like pizza boxes with minimal grease, plastic punnets and trays, yoghurt and deli containers. The key is to sort items in your kitchen first and check recycling labels," Ms Burnheim said. Follow these tips to recycle right at home: • Keep recycling loose: Plastic bags are a big source of contamination in our recycling bins. Never use plastic bags to bag or wrap recycling. Place recyclable items loosely into your yellow-lid recycling bin at home. • Keep it simple: Place plastic bottles and containers, glass bottles and jars, steel and aluminium cans, and clean paper and cardboard into your yellow-lid recycling bin. If in doubt, check the Waste Wizard! (see link left). • Recover E-waste: E-waste needs to be kept out of landfill as it can leach hazardous materials like mercury and lead into our environment. E-waste also contains valuable materials that should be re-used instead of being lost to landfill. Items such as mobile phones, laptops and tablets can be dropped off for free at Stotts Creek Resource Recovery Centre (the Tip). • Keep batteries out of the bin: Whether removable or embedded, batteries contain hazardous chemicals and have the potential to spark fires. They also contain valuable metals like lithium, mercury and lead. Drop removable batteries and car batteries (up to 20 kg) off for free at Stotts Creek Resource Recovery Centre.

Become a bug detective in your own backyard From butterflies and beetles to spiders, snails and worms, a hidden world of fascinating creatures is waiting to be discovered right in our own backyards. Residents are invited to take part in Bugs in My Backyard Week, a national citizen science event running from Monday 16 to Sunday 22 November. The week-long initiative aims to create a nationwide snapshot of Australia's insects and other invertebrates. Participants simply photograph the bugs they find and upload their sightings to the iNaturalist app, helping build a better picture of Australia's remarkable invertebrate life. The project supports scientific research and improves the early detection of invasive species that can threaten local ecosystems and agriculture. Every photo submitted adds to a growing database of observations from across the country. Last year's Bugs in My Backyard Week saw more than 40,000 observations submitted by over 5,000 participants, documenting thousands of species from across Australia. Organisers are hoping to make this year's event even bigger. Getting involved is simple.

For the 13-year-old, who is facing her sec- ond battle with cancer, it was a birthday wish come true – made possible by an incredible community effort. Behind the magic moment was Kenzie’s Keep- ers, a support group of friends and family who rallied together to help make her dream of meet- ing the American pop star a reality. The campaign called on the Kingscliff com- munity to get behind Kenzie, with a plea for people to help spread the word. Kenzie is originally from South Africa and was diagnosed with a different form of cancer there in 2022. She underwent surgery and chemotherapy and by 2024 was in remission. In March that year she relocated with her family to Kingscliff, but was diagnosed with a different cancer, B-lymphoblastic lymphoma, in September this year. Kenzie, a Year 7 student at Kingscliff High School, says Benson Boone’s music had helped keep her spirits up during long hospital stays and cancer treatment. With the help of one of her Kingscliff High teachers, local Tweed singer-songwriter Fergus Hogan became involved in creating a video to catch the singer’s attention. Along with 11 of her closest friends and Ho- gan, Kenzie recorded a video set to Boone’s hit Beautiful Things, making a birthday appeal. “One of my favourite things is music and I am obsessed with yours,” Kenzie said. “My friends and I play your songs on repeat. “Benson Boone, I have one big birthday wish. Can I meet you? “I promise I’ll bring the sparkle, you just bring the Beautiful Things,” referring to Boone’s hit song. The video took off, attracting more than 600,000 views, an outpouring of support and landed Kenzie an appearance on the Today Show. Then at his Brisbane Entertainment Centre concert last Friday, November 6, Kenzie’s birth- day, Boone invited Kenzie and her friends, all wearing matching Beautiful Things T-shirts, onto the stage for his final number of the show. Introducing Kenzie to the audience, he ex- plained that the 13-year-old was celebrating her birthday and facing her second round of cancer before inviting her to sing alongside him. There wasn’t a dry eye in the house as Ken- zie stepped up to the microphone and began singing with her idol in front of thousands and Kenzie was crying too. It was an incredibly moving moment for the inspirational young woman and everyone watching on. After the concert, Kenzie’s Keepers thanked Boone for making the night unforgettable. “Even in our wildest dreams, we could never have imagined the night looking like this. Thank you for not only making Kenzie’s dreams come true, but sending them on a trip around the universe and back,” they wrote. They said Boone had given Kenzie and her loved ones a night filled with “pure joy, love and magic”. Kenzie’s Keepers motto is “Shine Your Eyes” – a reminder to look for the good and live life to the fullest. By Jo Kennett Kenzie Riddle singing with Benson Boone Photo themusic.com.au

23Thursday, November 12, 2026 Seniors 21 For our Seniors T. on Cathie THE INTERGENERATIONAL Co-mentoring project featured in The Weekly recently has been seen as a big success and well worth repeating next year. Murwillumbah High School students in Year 11 were connected with elders from the community through the Tweed Shire Council Se- nior Ambassador. They met for 8 sessions to gain an understanding of each other’s reality and find out if they could build a genuine connection across the age gap. It turns out they could. Even better, they enjoyed it and had fun! The students realised that all the elders had pro- gressed through their lives on a mixture of hard work, persistence, luck and determination, and above all a brave assessment of their own strengths and weaknesses despite what others thought. This was confidence-inspiring for students as they began to think about the challenges of their own futures. It gave the elders real satisfaction to reflect on their own progress through life and careers, and offer this as a resource to the students. The community resilience value of building con- nection was shown when one student said thought- fully, “Ohh, so we should talk to you about the floods, because we’re going to be coping with the next one and you know what happened in the last ones.” The objective of raising awareness of seniors in the community was well and truly met. An added bonus was that mutual respect between young people and elders was significantly increased as they got to know each other. In fact by the end of the programme, self respect increased for all participants, and they had greater ability to communicate across the generations. All involved realised that some of their previous prejudices about the other age group must have been wrong, and they were willing to change their views. There is one more set of profiles to be pub- lished from the 2026 project. We’re saving it until February 2027 for a feature to co-incide with the Seniors Festival 2027. That’s when we will be starting to recruit elders for the 2027 project. So if you know any elders inter- ested in participating in this cutting edge initiative in our community, please contact the editor at The Weekly, or Karen Daw- son, Senior Ambassador at Tweed Shire Council 02 6670 2400. Successful co-mentoring with Tweed Senior Ambassador Karen Dawson Eldership Cathie on T. T. grew up in Chillingham in the beautiful Tweed Val- ley and is an only child. She is currently in Year 11. She has a great love of animals. Her cows and her dogs, especially her dog Star who has been with her since kindy, are a great joy in her life. She is intrigued by their behaviour and has con- cluded that animals ‘use their body movements to communicate’. T.’s passion is psycholo- gy. She finds the study of why people do what they do and the many differ- ences between them very interesting. She hopes to pursue this as her universi- ty study. Her longer-term goal is, by becoming a very good listener, to help people improve them- selves and achieve a more productive life. Her hobbies include net- ball, which she has been playing since she was twelve. She has taken up the guitar in the last cou- ple of years. T. is finding the You and Me Co-mentoring pro- gramme ‘really fun’ to be involved in as part of her school studies. Cathie grew up in rural Victoria until she was seventeen. Her first two jobs were working in the milk bar in year nine, ten and eleven, and at the local hospital in year eleven. As an adult, she lived in several places in Australia and Europe because her husband was in the army. Although she moved around a lot she always partici- pated in the community by vol- unteering. Cathie has three children and four grandchildren. Her passion is netball, which she has being playing for fifty-six years. Though she retired from competitive net- ball twenty-one years ago she still coaches players as well as umpir- ing, which she has been doing for forty years. She is Treasurer of the Tweed Valley Jazz & Blues club in Con- dong. She got into this by going to the club and getting to know people there. She loves to be organised and on time.

Born in Murwillumbah on February 14, 1929, Harry witnessed almost a century of change across the Tweed Valley, where his family’s roots stretch back to 1907. H i s e l d e s t s o n , L e n Lesleighter, paid tribute to his father in a heartfelt eulogy sent to The Weekly, remembering a man whose life was shaped by family, faith, farming, photogra- phy, woodturning, writing and sport. The Lesleighter family is a well-known name in these parts, first arriving in the Tweed in 1907, when Harry’s grandfather Charlie and great-uncle Harry helped rebuild Murwillumbah following the devastating town fire. “Raised in a farming family at Clothiers Creek during the Great Depression, Harry operated a trucking business and banana plantations, later expanding into beekeeping, honey production and avocados,” Len said. “Although he retired from banana farming in 1989, he continued working part-time on tropical fruit and avocado farms.” Harry married his beloved wife Janice (née Wright) in May 1956, with the couple cele- brating an extraordinary 70 years of marriage earlier this year. “Together they raised a large family, with Harry be- coming known as Dad, Gran- dad, Pop and Uncle Harry. The couple have 14 grand- children and 11 great-grand- children,” he said. Len said the Billy Graham Crusade in Brisbane in 1959 became a defining moment for his parents. “Their experience there in- spired a deep Christian faith which became a guiding force in their marriage and family life,” he said. Harry attended Murwil- lumbah Presbyterian Church and publicly declared his faith through baptism at the age of 90. Len recalled that “the small Bible and study guides at his place at the dining table” were evidence of his father’s enduring faith. A talented photographer, Harry won awards, including a Brisbane Courier Mail photography competition with a beach photograph of his young daughter Sharon. He was also an accomplished woodturn- er, serving as treasurer of the Tweed Valley Woodcrafters Association and contributing to community projects, including a model of Murwillumbah’s last steam train for the local museum. “Sawdust and woodchips were a common feature of Harry’s gardens,” Len fondly recalled. Sport was another lifelong passion, with Harry playing football for South Murwillumbah and featuring in the club’s 1954 minor and major By Jonathon Howard The cover of Sunday Mail, 1970 taken by Harry

Len recalled that football and cricket were “a great way to relax after a week in the bananas.” In 2014, Harry authored a family history doc- umenting the Lesleighters’ journey in the Tweed since 1907, originally written in his distinctive copperplate handwriting. Reflecting on his father’s remarkable life, Len said his influence would be felt by many. “Harry leaves his mark on many of us here today,” he said. “We thank God for his life and especially acknowledge and celebrate his faith in Jesus Christ.” Harry’s passing marks the end of a remarkable chapter, but his legacy will live on through his family and the community he loved.

Buying ingredients, preparing a complete meal and washing up afterwards can be time consuming, particularly when you only need a single serve. Fresh ingredients are also commonly sold in larger quantities, making it difficult to use everything before it spoils. This can lead to food waste, repeated leftovers or choosing a quick snack instead of preparing a balanced meal. Keeping a selection of frozen meals at home can make everyday mealtimes much easier. There is no need to plan days in advance or worry about fresh food going to waste. You can simply choose what you feel like eating and heat only the amount you need. Gourmet Meals offers a wide variety of complete frozen meals made with quality ingredients. With comforting roasts, chicken, seafood, pasta and vegetarian options available, you can enjoy something different throughout the week without buying numerous ingredients or spending hours in the kitchen. Individual portions can also help make serving the right amount easier while reducing unnecessary waste. Having meals readily available is particularly helpful on days when shopping, cooking or standing in the kitchen feels more difficult than usual. The Gourmet Meals is reviewed by an accredited practicing dietitian approved and snap frozen to preserve its flavour and quality.

The Minns Labor Government launched Vol- ume 12 at the NSW State Library on Monday, November 9, in partnership with the Fellowship of Australian Writers NSW. This year’s theme, Neighbours, Strangers, and the People in Between*, inspired stories celebrating friendship, community and unex- pected connections. The oldest contributor, June Colin-Thome, 90, recalled almost drowning before being rescued by a stranger. “Sometimes, the people we mistrust are for- tuitously helpful,” she wrote. Another author, Richard Kuipers, 79, reflected on the friendships formed over coffee. “We are not just paying for coffee. We are investing in our friendships,” he wrote. While no Tweed writers feature in this year’s edition, previous volumes include several local contributors. Volume 10 features former Tweed Valley Weekly journalist Yvonne Gardiner’s moving account of her childhood in England and even- tual happiness in Pottsville. Tweed Heads authors Michael Henry and John Hamment also contributed stories ex- ploring their love of literature and memories of the London Blitz. NSW Minister for Seniors Jodie Harrison congratulated this year’s contributors. “Older people across the state have so many fascinating stories to share and we all benefit from their insights,” Ms Harrison said. “Seniors’ Stories ties all these stories together and leaves a lasting record for future generations to reflect and learn. “Congratulations to all 100 authors for in- vesting your time and skill into delivering this precious book which celebrates the lived expe- riences of older people.” Since launching in 2013, the initiative has published 1,200 stories, with writing workshops helping seniors develop their skills. State President of the Fellowship of Austra- lian Writers NSW, Colleen Parker, welcomed the ongoing partnership and enthusiasm of senior writers. Copies will be distributed to libraries and electorate offices, while digital and audiobook versions will be available at: www.nsw.gov.au/ community-services/seniors-card/seniors-sto- ries.

However, when the fragile vestibular organs of the inner ear and brain are damaged by illness or injury, anyone can lose their ability to balance. Balance disorders are typically under diagnosed and undertreated. More than 1/3 of adults aged 40 years and older experience vestibular dysfunction at some point in their lives. Common symptoms of vestibular disorders include vertigo and dizziness. Vertigo is a spinning or whirling sensation, or an illusion of the self or world moving. Dizziness is a lightheaded, floating or rocking sensation. Poor balance, nausea, visual disturbances, headache, hearing loss, tinnitus, and pain or fullness in the ears can accompany vestibular disorders. There are many causes of dizziness or vertigo. But most types of vestibular disorders can be diagnosed by means of a thorough medical history and clinical examination. The most common type of vertigo is Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV), and once diagnosed is easily treated with repositioning manoeuvres. Amongst other types of vertigo are Meniere’s Disease, Vestibular Neuritis and Cervicogenic Vertigo. Cervicogenic Vertigo is due to a dysfunction in the neck and can be easily treated with Osteopathic intervention. Dr Rudi Gerhardt has had substantial education in the field of Vestibular Disorders, can diagnose most of the common types, and is able to either treat the condition or refer on for further diagnosis and treatment.

‚€€ 94299 Life Quality Health QP TWEED SHIRE Council says Homestead Hol- iday Park at Chinderah was compliant when inspected in May, despite a Fire and Rescue NSW report documenting significant water supply and firefighting difficulties during a blaze that destroyed homes and displaced residents. The July 29 fire destroyed two residential units, damaged two others and left three res- idents without homes. One resident whose home was badly damaged subsequently entered permanent aged care, while another was tem- porarily displaced. Although nobody was physically injured, the fire report raises questions about the facilities available to firefighters and the park’s emer- gency evacuation arrangements. The report records several problems encoun- tered during firefighting, particularly difficulties accessing an adequate water supply. There was no reticulated water supply near the park, access to the boat ramp was blocked, preventing firefighters from drawing water from the Tweed River, and the hydrant located in the middle of the park had insufficient water pressure. The report also states there were no hydrants within a suitable distance of the fire. Firefighters encountered evacuation difficul- ties, with residents reportedly remaining in their units rather than moving to a designated safe assembly point – hindering firefighting operations. Family members have raised further concerns, saying residents did not know where the evacu- ation point was, the gate to the boat ramp was locked and no staff were onsite to unlock it. One resident reportedly attempted to angle-grind the lock to allow access. Families have also questioned whether ade- quate fire hoses were available onsite. Continue reading on page 32.

Organisers from Pottsville Beach Com- munity Hall are encouraging residents to get behind the young creatives. “Join us for the Kids Christmas Craft Fair 2026 at Pottsville Beach Community Hall,” organisers said. “A fun-filled celebration of creativity, show- casing handmade treasures, young makers and the next generation of local talent.” The event offers chil- dren an opportunity to display their creations, build confidence and experience the excite- ment of selling their handmade products. Entry is by gold coin donation. The fair takes place at Pottsville Beach Communi- ty Hall, 1 Tweed Coast Road, on Sunday, November 15, from 9am to 11.30am. SHOPPERS MAY have seen the lovely group of Lions Club members selling tickets for the annual Monster Christmas Raffle at Tweed Mall – and The Weekly can tell you now this is a great cause with some amazing Chrissy prizes on offer. The Lions Club of Coolangatta and Tweed Heads has launched the iconic raffle, featuring approximately $1,400 worth of fantastic prizes donated by generous local businesses.

Held at St James Anglican Church, 120 Marine Parade, Kingscliff, from 8am, the mar- ket will bring together volunteers from St James Kingscliff and St Mark’s Pottsville for a morn- ing of festive fun and community fundraising. Organiser Raewyn McAuley said the event was about much more than celebrating Christmas, with funds raised helping improve church build- ings that support a wide range of community services. “The purpose of this event is to raise funds for upgrades and modifications to our buildings to better support our community and the cross section of activities that occur on our premises right in the heart of Kingscliff and Pottsville,” Mrs McAuley said. St James is an important community hub, providing space for The Food Hub, Rotary breakfasts and lunches, meal handouts, free community dinners, U3A classes, Alcoholics Anonymous meetings and NSW service consultants. A major attraction will be the churches’ renowned homemade Christmas fruit cakes and other delicious baked goods, lovingly prepared by volunteers. Visitors can also enjoy freshly cooked bacon and egg rolls while browsing the market stalls and listening to the community choir perform Christmas carols with a few entertaining twists. A major raffle will feature generous prizes donated by Tweed businesses, including two beach trolley hampers, themed gift hampers and vouchers for beauty treatments, books and local cafés. Mrs McAuley said the churches appreciated the community’s support and hoped residents would once again get behind the event. The market provides an opportunity to pick up Christmas gifts and festive treats while helping maintain facilities that play an important role in supporting local residents throughout the year.

Particularly large migrations are relatively uncommon, although the butterflies migrate regularly. The butterflies are white, fringed with black, with orange-yellow markings and, if you have witnessed their migration, you might have no- ticed that they fly pretty fast, making it almost impossible to get a photograph of them in flight. Caper White caterpillars feed on native caper plants, which are found mainly west of the Great Dividing Range, but the adult butterflies can be blown towards the coast by strong westerly winds. There are far more than usual this year, and the extraordinary numbers are believed to be due to exceptionally heavy rainfall across Cen- tral Australia and western NSW, which has created ideal breeding conditions. The rain triggered a flush of fresh growth on native caper plants, providing an abundant food supply for Caper White caterpillars. When populations explode, caterpillars can strip entire bushes of foliage and, as their food supplies dwindle and summer temperatures climb inland, adult butterflies set off in search of nectar and more favourable conditions. Although their usual migration routes take them inland, strong westerly winds can help push them towards the east coast, and the westerly winds over the last week or two are believed to have swept large numbers towards the Queensland and NSW coastlines, including across the Tweed Shire. Adelaide recently saw an inundation of mil- lions of Caper Whites. Adult Caper Whites may live for several weeks, as Kris Messenger from Bugs and Slugs told Gardening Australia, meaning some of the butterflies arriving in the south of Australia may be fourth or fifth generation along the ‘multi-generational migration path’. The migration is good news for gardens. Adult Caper Whites feed on flower nectar and also help pollinate other plants, although they don’t collect anywhere near the amount of pollen as bees. Their caterpillars eat plants belonging to the caper family, not vegetable crops such as broccoli or cabbage.

The free outdoor session was held to mark Men’s Mental Health Awareness Month, bring- ing together members of the popular Kings- cliff-based Mongrel Men group for a morning focused on connection, mindfulness and sup- porting one another. Organised by Movement Gym’s member expe- rience manager Lily and Mongrel Men’s Neil, the session was led by meditation instructor Miya, who encouraged participants to reflect on the emotional burdens and pressures men often carry. Using physical stones as a metaphor for these unseen weights, the men were guided through exercises designed to help them acknowledge and release their worries. For one participant, the experience was par- ticularly meaningful. “I joined the Mongrels because I was strug- gling with loneliness,” he said. “The Mongrels saved me. I owe them a lot. Miya got us to focus on one word to take away with us today. My word was brotherhood. These guys are awesome.” The morning concluded with a healthy morn- ing tea, giving participants an opportunity to connect and share their experiences. Movement Gym also provided everyone at- tending with a free three-day gym pass. The event highlighted the growing impor- tance of Mongrel Men, a grassroots community group built around the simple philosophy of “no membership, just mateship.” The group meets every Tuesday and Thursday at 6.30am at Salt for casual beach walks and coffee, providing a welcoming, pressure-free environment where men can talk openly or simply enjoy the company of others. Beyond their regular gatherings, Mongrel Men also supports local community initiatives, in- cluding the Tweed Prostate Support Group, Team Lemonade and blood donation drives. Organisers hope the wellness session will encourage more local men to reach out, build friendships and recognise that looking after mental health is just as important as physical fitness. Men interested in joining the group can con- tact Neil on 0414 573 588 or Noel on 0411 746 537, or visit the Mongrel Men Kingscliff Facebook page.

32 Local News Thursday, November 12, 2026 Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals Minister’s response on preschool funding Continued from page 3. The directors criticised the short implementa- tion time frame, saying detailed guidelines were released only weeks before they were expected to finalise staffing, budgets and enrolments for 2027. They also questioned how services could af- ford increased educator wages while absorbing significant funding reductions. All the Tweed preschool directors are de- manding greater consultation, clearer funding arrangements and assurances that commu- nity-based preschools will remain financially viable. The Weekly put several pressing questions Tweed Valley Weekly put to Deputy Premier and Education Minister Prue Car (pictured) including: Will The Nsw Government guarantee the future of community preschools, prevent potentially devastating staff cuts and rule out shifting funding towards public school-based preschools and federally subsidised long day- care centres? The Weekly also asked what guarantees the Minister could provide for struggling rural preschools and whether she would urgently meet local directors before the new Universal Preschool Funding Program takes effect on January 1. In response, Ms Car was short and to the point acknowledging concerns and indicated changes to the guidelines could be forthcoming. “Our government remains committed to en- suring workers are paid fairly and community preschools can maximise enrolments. We’re grateful for the feedback and understand ser- vices may need more time to adjust to the new guidelines. We’re working with stakeholders on updates and will have more to say soon,” Mr Car. However, the Minister did not directly answer questions about the long-term future of the com- munity preschool model, provide guarantees against staffing reductions or confirm whether she would meet Tweed directors. Background information was provided to The Weekly, in which the government said statewide funding for community preschools would increase to between $584 million and $642 million in 2027, compared with $540 million to $625 million this year. It also confirmed up to $91 million would be available for children requiring additional learning support, with priority children funded for up to three preschool days each week. The government maintains the new model accounts for staffing, award wages and oper- ating costs, although individual community preschools remain responsible for employment decisions and meeting regulatory requirements. The background notes said the NSW Gov- ernment is not the employer of community preschool teachers and educators. Community preschools are responsible for determining staff- ing requirements and their employee salaries and fulfilling staff- ing ratios to meet regulations. Meanwhile, the directors are call- ing on readers and the public to sign a petition in support of their demands via the following: https://tinyurl.com/ t8ypmc2z Continued from page 25 One neighbouring unit exposed to radiant heat and venting gas cylinders was totally destroyed, along with a vehicle in its carport. Residents’ families believe the absence of wind and the fact that most people were still awake when the fire broke out may have prevented a much greater tragedy. “Without a doubt, if it had occurred in the middle of the night, lives would have been lost. If there had been a breath of wind, more homes would have been lost,” one family member said. “Our motivation has been to ensure this doesn’t happen again.” Council rejects non-compliance claims Asked why Council did not undertake a com- prehensive compliance assessment following the fire, a spokesperson said officers attended on July 30 to assess damage, site security, risks to neighbouring properties and requirements for demolition and repairs. Council said this was an immediate post-in- cident inspection, not a comprehensive assess- ment of the entire park against its Approval to Operate.The spokesperson said legislation did not require a full compliance assessment following every caravan park fire. Council confirmed the park’s current Ap- proval to Operate runs from July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2028, and requires an annual Council inspection. Asked why the approval was issued despite concerns about fire hydrants and fire hose facil- ities, Council rejected the suggestion the park was known to be non-compliant. The spokesperson said Council inspected the park on May 4, 2026, as part of the approval process and identified no outstanding matters. Council said an Approval to Operate does not guarantee every aspect of a park will remain compliant throughout the approval period.

It was 1964. More than six decades later, the drummer is still touring with the band that helped put British blues-rock on the international map. The Animals are heading to Twin Towns in Tweed Heads on Friday, November 20, bringing with them a catalogue of hits that helped define the British blues-rock explosion of the 1960s, and turned five working-class musicians from Newcastle into global stars. With Eric Burdon’s raw, powerful vocals and Alan Price’s distinctive organ sound, The Animals brought a darker, grittier edge to the British Invasion, with hits including We Gotta Get Out of This Place, Don’t Let Me Be Mis- understood and It’s My Life. Now 85, Steel remains the band’s vital link to those early days, joined by front man Danny Handley and a new generation of musicians. The Weekly caught up with the legend at his home in rural Northumberland. Despite a couple of technical hitches, Steel was relaxed, friendly and gracious. I told Steel that I had been at the Newport Folk Festival in 1965, when Bob Dylan first played electric guitar, and most of the audience booed. The drummer had his own (better) an- ecdote about Dylan’s switch to electric. “Eric Burdon and I first heard House of the Rising Sun on Dylan’s debut album of acoustic folk songs released in the UK in 1962. We, The Animals, recorded our version of it using electric guitar, bass and keyboard in 1964. It was a worldwide number 1 hit, and our ticket to America. “In New York, we managed to meet up with Bob at his manager’s apartment where he served shrimp salad and wine and played rough mix- es of his current project which was his first recordings of songs using electric instruments. “Dylan told us that he had been driving his car listening to the radio when he first heard our recording of House of the Rising Sun. He stopped the car, got out, banged on the bonnet and decided right there that electric was the way to go.” To wind up the conversation, I asked Steel how he stopped people talking about the past. “I don’t,” he said. “Why would I? People love to hear the stories and The Animals are part of rock history now. “I wish I could have seen Bob Dylan at the 1965 Newport Folk Festival!” The line-up may have changed, but the songs that made The Animals famous hits are still the heart of their live performances. The Animals UK House of the Rising Sun show starts at 8pm QLD time, on Friday, Novem- ber 20, at Twin Towns, 2 Wharf Street, Tweed Heads.

A TWEED family is honouring the memory of their beloved daughter, Tiffany Louise Bunn, who lost her battle with bowel cancer at the age of 36, by urging others to recognise the warning signs of bowl cancer. Murwillumbah real estate Raine & Horne Jet director Elizabeth Hickey has shared Tiffany’s story describing her a “fighter and inspiring young women” with the hope her family’s loss will encourage others to take bowel cancer symptoms seriously and seek medical advice. Tiffany, née Hollis, passed away on November 11, 2025, surrounded by her loving family, after a coura- geous battle with the disease. As the first anniversary of her passing approaches, Elizabeth said the family wanted to honour their beau- tiful girl and raise awareness of the devastating impact bowel cancer can have on younger people. “Tiffany was diagnosed with stage three bowel can- cer on November 23, 2024, following a colonoscopy prompted by persistent and unusual changes in her bowel movements,” Elizabeth told The Weekly. “Before her diagnosis, Tiffany had presented to hos- pital several times with symptoms but had been treated for gastrointestinal problems. “Just three days after her diagnosis, she underwent surgery, with doctors discovering two large tumours obstructing her bowel. “The cancer had already grown through the bowel wall and spread to her lymph nodes.” What followed was a gruelling seven-month course of chemotherapy, with Tiffany showing incredible courage, strength and determination throughout her treatment. Despite her brave fight, Tiffany passed away leaving an enormous hole in the hearts of those who loved her. Elizabeth said the family's message was now clear. “Bowel cancer does not discriminate. It does not have an age limit, and it does not only affect older people,” she said. She said Tiffany’s experience was a powerful reminder of the importance of listening to your body and inves- tigating persistent or unusual symptoms. “Do not ignore the signs. Do not assume you are too young. If something doesn't feel right, push for answers,” she said. Elizabeth said the family was also encouraging every- one eligible for bowel cancer screening to complete the free test kits sent to their homes. “If sharing Tiffany’s story encourages even one person to get checked, complete their bowel screening kit or seek medical advice, then something meaningful can come from this heartbreaking loss,” she said. For Elizabeth and Tiffany's loved ones, sharing her story is about much more than raising awareness. “It is about remembering a cherished daughter and family member whose life was filled with love and whose courage throughout her illness will never be forgotten,” she said. The family hopes Tiffany's legacy will inspire others to recognise the warning signs of bowel cancer and seek medical attention early. “Get the proper checks and do not delay – it really can mean life and death,” the family said. Forever Young Never Forgotten Bowel cancer does not discriminate. It does not have an age limit, and it does not only affect older people.

46 Local Sport and Development News Thursday, November 12, 2026 Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals Blacks Drain opens as a stronger flood crossing FOR AS long as many Tweed Valley locals can remember, Blacks Drain in South Murwillum- bah has been a major pinch point for floodwater – prompting many to ask whether the site could ever handle heavy water flow. But thanks to a significant federal and state government, as well as Tweed Shire Council, the upgrade to the Blacks Drain crossing on Tweed Valley Way has been completed almost a month ahead of schedule, delivering a safer and more flood-resilient road for thousands of Tweed motorists. Suring up Blacks Drain was extremely com- plex, according to council, but was completed ahead of schedule and by talented local con- tractor Skeen Constructions. The crossing, which was repeatedly damaged during major floods in 1954, 2017 and 2022, has been rebuilt to better withstand severe weather and reduce the risk of future road closures. The upgrade is particularly important for residents, farmers and businesses who rely on Tweed Valley Way as a major transport link. Tweed Shire Council Director of Engineering Tim Mackney welcomed the completion of the complex project which was a full month ahead of schedule. “It’s incredibly rewarding to see the Blacks Drain upgrade complete and this important crossing fully reopened to the community,” Mr Mackney said. “This was a complex project, particularly with critical underground services running through the site, and I want to acknowledge the crews and contractors who worked hard to deliver a great result.” Mr Mackney said favourable weather during construction had helped crews finish earlier than expected. “Most importantly, the community now has a stronger, more resilient crossing that is better equipped for the conditions we experience here in the Tweed.” Improvements include rigid concrete pave- ment, upgraded pedestrian access, new traf- fic safety infrastructure and concrete slope protection designed to reduce damage during flooding. Flood-resistant native lomandra has also been planted to stabilise surrounding soil and reduce erosion, with the design drawing on lessons from previous flood events. The project forms part of a $22 million disas- ter recovery package to strengthen 35 causeways across the Tweed Shire. Federal Minister for Emergency Management Kristy McBain said the early completion was a welcome milestone in the region’s ongoing flood recovery. “Completing the Blacks Drain crossing almost a month ahead of schedule is a great outcome for the Tweed community, providing it with a safer and more reliable connection while sup- porting the region’s ongoing recovery from the 2022 floods.” NSW Roads Minister Jenny Aitchison said the investment was about building stronger infrastructure rather than simply repairing flood damage. “The Regional Roads and Transport Recovery Package program ensures we aren’t just repair- ing damaged roads and crossings, but we are building them better and stronger to withstand future weather events,” she said. NSW Minister for Recovery and the North Coast Janelle Saffin said reliable roads were essential for keeping regional communities connected. “By learning from the past and building back better, we are giving our families, farmers, and local businesses the long-term confidence they deserve with transport links that are stronger, safer, and ready for the future.” Federal Member for Richmond Justine Elliot welcomed the upgrade, highlighting its impor- tance for local motorists. “As your local MP, I’m proud to have delivered funding to ensure that Tweed Valley Way is more resilient and less likely to have road closures following severe weather events.” The completed crossing marks another mile- stone in the Tweed’s recovery from the devastat- ing 2022 floods, with major restoration works also undertaken on Scenic Drive, Reserve Creek Road, Limpinwood Road, Numinbah Road, Kyogle Road and Tyalgum Road. For the community, the improvements mean a stronger crossing designed to reduce disrup- tion to travel, freight movements and access to essential services during future severe weather.
