One of the benefits of registration is that it is the the best and fastest way to ensure your pet is returned to you, should it be lost or wandering and found wearing the Council identification marker. Whitehorse Councillor Philip Daw said dogs and cats must be microchipped and registered with Council by three months of age and owner’s must renew their pet’s registration by 10 April each year to avoid a fine. “All pet owners in Whitehorse need to ensure that registrations for their dogs and cats are up to date and that their pets have registration tags attached to their collars,” Cr Daw said. Cr Daw said registering your pet greatly improves the chances of them being returned to you if they are lost. “Registration also supports a number of important services including removing wandering dogs from the streets, dealing with nuisance problems such as barking dogs, control of dangerous animals, education programs, cat curefews and Council licensing of animal businesses,” Cr Daw said. Owners of registered pets will receive renewal notices in the mail in March. Registration renewals can be paid via Council’s website, BPay or by using the prepaid envelope supplied with the registration renewal or at one of Council’s three Customer Service Centres. For more information about registration, fees or getting your pet microchipped, phone Council on 9262 6333 or visit www.whitehorse.vic.gov.au Furry friends There are 13,964 dogs and 6405 cats registered in Whitehorse. The most popular names for dogs in Whitehorse are Bella, Charlie, Max, Molly and Ruby. The most popular cat names are Bella, Oscar, Max, Molly and Coco. Councillor Philip Daw with his family cat.

Australia Day Awards FEBRUARY 2015 3 Whitehorse Australia Day Awards 2015 Each year, Whitehorse City Council recognises and promotes the outstanding efforts of people who live, work or volunteer in the municipality. Congratulations to all recipients of the 2015 Whitehorse Australia Day Awards. Joint Young Citizens of the Year WHITNEY YIP GLEN VERNAL Twenty-five year old Whitney Yip is the joint recipient of the Young Citizen of the Year Award for 2015. Sixteen year old Glen Vernal has been chosen as joint Young Citizen of Year for 2015 for his sporting achievements, mentoring of young people, leadership and community service. A businesswoman, mother, student and Parent Effectiveness Instructor, Whitney is a very busy young person, but she is dedicated to giving back to the community and helping the lives of children. She founded the Safe & Happy Kids program (safeandhappykids.com.au) almost two years ago in an effort to combat bullying and child sexual abuse. The program promotes the preservation of personal safety to parents and children up to 12 years of age through music, art and play. Whitney was also awarded Young Person of the Month in February 2014. He is an accomplished sportsman with many triumphs, including team captain for the Little Athletics Nunawading Centre in 2013/14 and winning the Les Plummer Award for most outstanding Little Athletics athlete in 2011/12 and 2010/11. Glen regularly attends school working bees, takes part in charity running events and he has supported Scout Street Orienteering in 2014 and 2013, which involves mentoring younger members of the Scout movement. He has also taken on many leadership positions within the Scout movement. Australia Day Trophy Whitehorse Showtime Scout Association of Australia – Victoria Branch Whitehorse Showtime is an annual Scouts and Guides association theatrical show performed at the Whitehorse Centre. It is one of the largest Scout shows in the world with a cast of more than 150 young people completing the 50th season of the program in 2014. There are also almost 200 people behind the scenes helping to put the performance together. The program provides invaluable experience to people of all ages in areas such as scriptwriting, singing, dancing, costume making and stage craft. The creative team spends five months bringing stories, songs and plot lines together, after which it is the production team’s job to take this vision and make the cast shine. For more details, visit www.whitehorseshowtime.org Community Achievement Award VALMA FELL MAURICE PAGRAM ALAN MEE PENNY CROSSMAN JESS GROSZEK COLIN JEFFERY Lifelong Burwood resident Valma Fell is passionate about preserving our local history for future generations. Her family history can be traced back to as early as the 1870s to when her family attended Burwood Primary School. Box Hill North’s Maurice Pagram is the hardworking President of the Blackburn North Bowling Club. After joining the club in 2004, he quickly took on a committee position and became President for two years from 2007 and then again for the past five years from 2009. Alan Mee, of Blackburn, is an outstanding volunteer for Eastern Volunteers. Mitcham's Penny Crossman has made a significant contribution through her work as a biology and science teacher at a number of schools. She was recently awarded for 25 years of service at Whitefriars College in Donvale where she has acted as a pastoral care teacher, been actively involved in international exchange programs and mentored Chinese students. Jess Groszek, of Blackburn North, has pioneered the work of Unshackled – a movement based in Blackburn which aims to bring an end to human trafficking and slavery. Glen Waverly’s Colin Jeffery has been a dedicated President of East Burwood Tennis Club since 2005 and has had a connection with the club since 1966 as both a player and committee member. Valma has dedicated much of her time to the Burwood History Group and from 1994 has been a gifted convenor, helping to research information on Burwood Cemetery and provide all sorts of local history in response to requests. Without Valma, and the assistance of her husband Frank, much of the history of Burwood would have been forgotten. Maurice put together a program that enabled the club to maintain its greens in good condition, which inspired many other bowling clubs to do the same. He has made a number of other improvements that have contributed greatly to the club, allowing it to save money and offer more to members. Alan volunteers four days a week as a driver for Eastern Volunteers’ transport service, which helps frail older residents or people with a disability with transport to medical appointments, social outings, shopping trips and community facilities. He is an unassuming, friendly, committed and dependable volunteer driver. In the past 12 months alone, Alan has taken more than 400 residents on booked trips, worked more than 480 hours and driven more than 3000 kilometres. Penny also set up a blood bank program where students can donate blood each month, resulting in more than 100 donations each year. She is an active community member who takes part in Neighbourhood Watch and gets behind local issues. Since 2011, Jess has focused on making a global issue one that can be tackled on a local level and she has reached thousands of people in Whitehorse and beyond, calling on them to initiate change in their suburb. Jess also launched Unshackled Week, an annual weeklong series of nightly seminars that mix creativity, music, information and action against human trafficking. Colin actively encourages young people to participate in tennis and arranges tournaments for various age groups. He has also fostered the local Vietnamese community to take up the sport, resulting in many new members. Colin, who is 79 years of age, is very enthusiastic in overseeing night tennis teams, midweek ladies competitions, social playing and tournament teams. 4 General news FEBRUARY 2015 Last chance to nominate Nominations for the 2015 Built Environment Awards will wrap up on 16 February 2015 T he local community is encouraged to get their nominations in now to acknowledge projects in Whitehorse that display environmental sustainability and design excellence.

Make your return to school safe, active and sustainable M ake walking, cycling, or car-pooling to school part of your new year’s resolution in 2015. Drop-off and pick-up areas With the school term beginning for another year at school for children, Council is urging parents and carers to follow the law when dropping and picking up children from school. School drop-off and pick-up can often present serious safety issues if traffic is not managed properly. Drivers need to respect road rules and parking signs including posted speed limits and designated dropoff and pick-up areas. It is important that parents park legally to provide a safer environment for children. Parking within 20 metres before a designated school crossing or 10 metres after is illegal. Double parking restricts the view of drivers, forces children onto the road and obstructs the flow of traffic. Teaching good habits Walking or cycling to school is a great way to reduce the traffic congestion around schools, keep fit, and decrease the impact of cars on the environment. Take advantage of the great weather and help your children include some exercise as part of their trip to and from school. If you live too far from school, try parking a few streets away and walking the remainder of the distance. You will be helping the environment, improving road safety around schools, and becoming healthier. Please help your children to learn about road safety by displaying safe travel behaviour for them to model. Use a school crossing or other safe place to cross the road, and remember to ‘Stop, Look, Listen, Think’ before stepping off the kerb. School speed zones and parking restrictions have been implemented around schools to improve the safety for students. Please consider the safety of your child and other children when dropping-off and picking-up from school. For more information on Council’s school road safety programs, visit www.whitehorse. vic.gov.au/Road-Safety.html Get in Now to ‘Boost Your Business’ L ocal businesses are being given the chance to “boost their business” through a week-long series of workshops, seminars and information sessions held by Whitehorse City Council’s Business and Economic Development Unit.

Sustainable Living Week Supporters 5 Free x-ray recycling service C ouncil has introduced a new free drop off x-ray film recycling service. Whitehorse Councillor Helen Harris OAM said the new service would provide residents - particularly those that have a large amount of x-ray films to dispose of - with a convenient and easy system to recycle their x-rays. “Whitehorse residents can now dispose of x-rays that they no longer require at specially marked recycling bins located around the municipality,” Cr Harris said. The x-ray recycling bins are located at: • Whitehorse Recycling and Waste Centre, Vermont South (please hand x-ray films directly to the weighbridge staff) • Forest Hill Customer Service Centre • Box Hill Customer Service Centre • Nunawading Customer Service Centre X-ray films contain silver which is fully recovered as part of the recycling process. They are processed in an EPA-licensed refinery based in Melbourne to extract the silver. Council’s contractor recognises that all x-rays and the patient packets that contain them are confidential documents and treats them accordingly. X-ray films currently contribute to the 5 per cent of hazardous waste that the average Whitehorse household disposes of in their rubbish bin. For further information about the service, phone 9262 6333 or visit www.whitehorse.vic.gov.au/x-rayrecycling.html Councillor Helen Harris drops off some old x-rays at the x-ray recycling bin at Council's Customer Service Centre at Box Hill Town Hall. 6 Family and health FEBRUARY 2015 Reading to Children S tory time with parents is a childhood memory that everyone holds dear. It’s also important for the brain development of children. Reading with babies and children can help encourage curiosity, spark their imagination and assist them to become familiar with sounds and words. Story time is a great bonding opportunity and a relaxing activity to share with your child after a busy day. Your local library has a lot to offer families. Taking your child to the library and letting them choose their books can be a fun adventure for you both. Whitehorse Manning Libraries offer a range of story times and activities for children of all ages at local branches in Blackburn, Box Hill, Nunawading and Vermont South.

Titled Irresistable, this season is filled with entertainment to delight audiences of all ages. Come along and enjoy Australia’s leading theatre companies and music icons in a season full of drama, comedy, dance and wonderful music. Music, Dance and Circus Silvie Paladino – Unforgettable featuring special guest Alex Rathgeber Silvie Paladino has one of the greatest female voices in Australia. Alex Rathgeber is a leading man of musical theatre and together they make beautiful music. Silvie and Alex will showcase songs from composers Rodgers & Hammerstein, Cole Porter, Andrew Lloyd Webber and many more. They are joined by David Cameron on piano for an unforgettable musical experience. The Floorshow Looking for a laugh from two comedians sure to have you in stitches? Dame Helen and Chad Bradley present their very own tell-all, show-all, dance-all showbiz master class! Chad Bradley is the Silvie Paladino ultimate triple threat; singerdancer-Broadway hack. Dame Helen Highwater was the original diva long before Beyoncé had squeezed into a sequined leotard. Grabbing ideas and some dancers from the audience, Chad and Dame Helen present a step-by-step guide to a kick ass show. The Pirates of Penzance Opera Gala – Heroes and Villians Pirates of Penzance, the smash hit Broadway musical and arguably the most popular of the Gilbert & Sullivan repertoire, is performed by a talented cast of six in this madcap musical adventure. This production contains all the great musical delights and comedic escapades that have had audiences on their feet with applause for over 100 years. Award winning actor and singer Philip Gould is joined by the very funny, highly acclaimed Brian Hannan and international soprano Alison Rae Jones in this feel-good musical comedy. To celebrate Victorian Opera’s 10th anniversary season, opera’s next generation of performers are bringing you an unforgettable night of opera featuring the thrilling music of Rossini, Mozart and more. From the villainous Don Giovanni to the fearless Tamino and devilishly cunning Barber of Seville, witness the colourful characters from much loved operas brought to life. The Tap Pack Inspired by the unforgettable live shows of the “Rat Pack” featuring Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jnr comes a new, highly entertaining act combining the old classics with a fresh twist. The Tap Pack are guys who can sing, joke and above all tap up a storm. For full details on all the shows at the Whitehorse Centre in 2015, visit www.whitehorsecentre.com.au, phone 9262 6555 for a brochure, or like us on facebook at www.facebook.com/ WhitehorseCentre With songs like Lady Is A Tramp and Me And My Shadow mixed with slick humour, slap stick comedy, sharp suits and high-energy tap dancing, The Tap Pack picks up where the Rat Pack left off. Beyond Beyond blends dynamic circus acts like trapeze and Chinese pole with multiple rabbit heads, rubiks cubes and blindfolds, set to a bewitching mix of show tunes, ballads and electronica, this creation delights and enchants. There is a line between human and animal, between madness and sanity, between logic and dream… We invite you to step over this line…and go Beyond. Sankofa Featuring incredible international guest artists from Asanti’s sister company in Ghana, combined with some of Australia’s most exciting afro-contemporary dancers and musicians, you will be blown Master Class away by their energy, connection to Coo culture and extraordinary talent.

Will Andy and Terry push their friend Jill to her absolute limits? And who is this shady Hector Houtkop, with a really bad pirate accent? Stripey The Tap Pack Theatre The One Day of the Year What is the meaning of Anzac Day? For war veterans like Alf ok and his friend Wacka Dawson, chance to commemorate history, m and conjure national pride. For Anzac Day flies the flag for a very one that brings the dignity of our ees and into the gutter with one the pub. On the centenary year nding, this landmark play returns on this truly Australian classic. ! ry of love that will stay with you nal words are spoken.

Tomorrow he . A wounded beast in a cage, nd. A priest enters to give him it is revealed to be Dan, Ned’s believed burnt to death. So onfrontation by two titans of y. Beautiful One Day Hamlet Beautiful One Day captures the reality of an unnecessary death in custody and the remarkable humanity, wisdom and determination of Palm Islanders to forgive. Prompted by the Palm Island community, the show looked for a way to turn anger into real understanding and new possibilities. Dark acts result in darker consequences. And there is little that’s darker and more complicated than the act of revenge. A family torn apart by murder, a son burdened with the truth and the task of avenging his father, and a country on the brink of war. Anguish, passion and desperation collide in this tragic telling of Hamlet, the Prince of Denmark, who remains one of theatre’s most fascinating characters. Head Full of Love Head Full of Love is the story of two remarkable women and the unlikely but inspiring friendship which forms between them. The Annual Alice Springs Beanie Festival is fast approaching and Tilly Napuljari is running out of time to finish her new creation. Nessa Tavistock, a Sydneysider, has run away to the Red Centre to escape her own problems back in the big smoke. With time and talk, they realise that despite their differences in language, surroundings and upbringing, they are not so different after all. Hamlet Australia Day Nothing is sacred as the national identity is put through the ringer in this thoroughly modern comedy! The Australia Day committee in the country town of Coriole is gearing up to put on the town’s biggest party – but there are a few issues. With everyone wanting a piece of the party pie, it’s proving hard yakka to work out what an Aussie celebration should look like. Master Class Inspired by Maria Callas’ famous 1973 visit to New York’s Juilliard School of Music, Master Class is an insightful look into opera’s most beloved and controversial diva. It sees Callas prod and provoke her students in a searing, funny and touching depiction of a woman who knows what it takes to walk the high wire and the sacrifices required to attain the dream. Stripey is a cracking adventure, based on a simple story adapted for the stage in the well-known, highly skilled and foot-tapping style associated with other Garry Ginivan attractions such as Possum Magic, Wombat Stew and My Grandma Lived in Gooligulch! Imagine having to keep track of 30 small emu chicks, who are running here, there and everywhere. Well that’s what Crikey, their emu dad must do and when one of them goes missing, that’s when all the fun begins. Cranky Bear Flamboyant friends Zebra, Lion and Moose each think they know how to solve the Bear’s crankiness but their shenanigans just make him even crankier! It takes a humble and empathetic Sheep with an open heart and listening ear to solve the Bear’s woes. Cranky Bear is a rollicking caberetstyle new show packed with laughter, music and mayhem. 10 Sport and leisure FEBRUARY 2015 Have your say on the future of Morack Y our feedback is sought on Morack Public Golf Course to help Council develop a plan for the future direction of the facility. Morack is an important community facility that provides recreation opportunities for the residents of Whitehorse and for people from across the eastern region. The facility features an 18-hole golf course, 20-bay floodlit driving range, two practice putting greens, a comprehensive pro-shop, and outdoor barbeque and seating areas. Council has engaged Well Played Golf Business Consultancy to develop the Strategic Plan for Morack and is inviting everyone to fill in a survey to have a say in the future planning of the golf course. Results from the survey will provide Council with valuable insights into how often people visit and why, how satisfied they are with the facility, whether people who do not use it would consider trying Morack if improvements were made and community priorities on future improvements. All responses are confidential. Whether you tee off at Morack or might consider doing so in future, please get involved – it only takes 10-15 minutes to have your say. The survey opens on Thursday 12 February and closes on Sunday 1 March at 9pm. The survey is available online at www.fluidsurveys.com/s/morack2015 Alternatively, you can collect a hard copy from the Morack Public Golf Course Pro Shop or a Council Customer Service Centre at Nunawading, Box Hill or Forest Hill. For more details you can also phone Guy Chapple of WellPlayed Golf Business Consultancy on 0417 034 684. Fill out the survey on your mobile device by scanning this QR code. Partner up and pay less P eople who work out with a partner have a higher chance of reaching their health and fitness goals, plus it’s much more enjoyable, motivating and rewarding. Studies have shown that people who exercise with friends will go to the gym more often and push themselves harder than if they went to the gym alone. Become a Wiser Driver R eflexes, confidence and awareness are important skills for drivers of all ages. But as we age some of the skills we take for granted can begin to wane. Council is running the popular four week Wiser Driver courses throughout 2015 to help older drivers stay safe on Whitehorse’s roads for as long as possible. It has also been identified that women who exercise with friends burn almost 20 per cent more calories compared to women exercising on their own. The course is also helpful for experienced drivers to upgrade their knowledge and discuss important issues facing mature drivers so they can continue to make informed decisions about their future transport options. Friends can help keep you motivated and be there when times get tough, but most importantly exercising with a friend is fun. From 2-20 February 2015, join Aqualink with a friend to reap the rewards of a healthier you in 2015 and enjoy a reduced joining fee. The seminar is offered free of charge to drivers aged 50 years and older. Choose from Total Fitness, Gym and Group Fitness memberships and the $110 joining fee will be reduced to: • Changes to the road rules Some of the topics discussed include: • Vehicle and driver roadworthiness • Building confidence and awareness • $88.00 per person – two people joining • Handling difficult conditions • $71.50 per person – three people joining • The benefits of trip planning to avoid potential dangers • $55.00 per person – four people joining • Discussions on planning for the future. You will also go in the draw to win one of two 12 month Total Fitness Memberships! The next four-week course will be held on 3, 10, 17 and 24 March from 12 noon-2pm at Mitcham Community House, 19 Brunswick Road, Mitcham. Participants are required to attend all four sessions. Other courses will be held in May, August and November 2015. Total Fitness Members have access to: • 200+ group fitness classes per week • Six group fitness studios • Two spacious gymnasiums with modern high tech equipment • Seven heated aquatic spaces, • Registered crèche at both centres To help get you started, new Total Fitness and gym members receive a personal consultation and an individual program from a qualified gym instructor and to keep you on track, Aqualink members also receive free, ongoing fitness program assessments.

Riversdale Ward Cr Sharon Ellis Ph/Fax 9890 8057 [email protected] Cr Andrew Davenport Ph/Fax 9803 7640 [email protected] By Cr Sharon Ellis As this is the first Ward column for 2015 we wish you a happy, healthy and successful year ahead. Last year was an extremely busy and rewarding year as Mayor, so I am looking forward to a slightly more relaxed 2015. Whitehorse has a myriad of events each year where the community can come together and celebrate. Australia Day celebrations are always an exciting start to each year and Carols by Candlelight are wonderful conclusion. In between times we have Music in the Park, Women’s Forums, Spring Festival and many other great events. Hopefully, I will have a chance to meet many of you during the year. Wembley Park This well-utilised soccer field has been undergoing reconstruction works over the Christmas break. Lime stabilisation works were undertaken prior to a roll-out of new turf. This fantastic club has undergone enormous growth in recent years and has experienced huge success, particularly with their women’s teams. We wish them a successful 2015 on their reconstructed grounds. Whitehorse Theatre This year’s season offers some fantastic entertainment and if you haven’t yet attended a show it is worth checking out their website. It is a popular destination for many Riversdale Ward residents and I always enjoy catching up with them at this popular venue - even if it is at the other end of the city! Councillors Sharon Ellis and Andrew Davenport at the Nunawading Civic Centre. elgar Ward Cr Robert Chong AM Ph/Fax 9894 3713 [email protected] Cr Helen Harris OAM Ph/Fax 9897 1312 [email protected] By Cr Robert Chong AM Star Rating Helps the Food Hygiene Assessment (FHA) system In 1996, Council adopted the Food Hygiene Assessment (FHA) system as the principal surveillance method of food premises. During 2014, the results of food safety performance for food businesses are: 92% of premises being compliant compared to 90.3 % in 2013 and 88% in 2012. They are better than the state average which is 80% of premises being compliant based on 2013 and 2012 data. The good result is partly due to Council applying a differential fee structure as incentive. The registration fees are based on the food premises' star rating. For example, a 5 star rating will result in a 10% decrease in the standard registration fee, a 2 star rating will result in a 30% increase in the standard registration fee and a 1 star rating will result in a 40% increase in the standard registration fee. Road Injury and Fataltiy Statistics in Whitehorse During 2009-2013 A summary of the road injury and fatality statistics in Whitehorse during 2009-2013: •R oad users aged 18 to 25 years were involved in the highest proportion of injuries and fatalities (23%). • Community members aged over 60 years are over represented in pedestrian fatality and injury crashes. • Drivers and passengers were involved in 78% of all injuries and fatalities. Pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists were involved in the remaining 22%. • Cyclists were involved in 5% of fatalities and injuries; this is half the rate for the Metropolitan area of Melbourne (10%) • The most common type of crash involved vehicle rear ends (27%) and side impacts at intersections (27%). Other common types of crashes were run off the road, head on and crashes involving pedestrians. However, it is pleasing to know over the past 10 years, the work undertaken by Council, the State Government and community organisations have resulted in a 41% reduction in road injuries and fatalities within Whitehorse. Charity Function Just before Christmas break, I was involved in organising a 2014 Singing Talent Competition to raise funds for the Eastern Health Foundation to help cancer patients at Box Hill Hospital. A total of $14,370 was raised. MORACK Ward Cr Raylene Carr Ph/Fax 9803 0913 [email protected] Cr Bill Bennett Ph/Fax 9801 1251 [email protected] By Cr Bill Bennett Welcome to 2015. I hope there was a chance to relax over the holiday season and maybe do some of the things that we all put off with our busy lives. Nunawading Community Garden Many of our community enjoy tending their plots at the Jolimont Road facility. The variety of fruit and vegetables (and flowers) grown is truly amazing. The health benefits of eating fresh produce is undoubted and the fact of growing your own makes it especially beneficial, I reckon! Of course the social interaction is also important and the helpful tips and advice and encouragement is what makes this facility so enjoyable and worthwhile. Come and have a look around if you haven’t already done so. I’m sure you’ll be impressed. Storm Damage Early in January, severe storm damage affected our municipality including areas of Vermont, St. James Primary School, Campbell’s Croft etc. Thankfully no one was injured. Crews from Council were on the spot to clean up fallen trees on local roads and ensure stormwater drains were clear. This is an important service provided by our Council and we thank them for their untiring efforts. Budget Deliberations At this time of the year, as your Councillors, we are deliberating over the 2015/16 Budget. This will be an especially challenging time as we come to terms with the new State Government policies. Your input will be sought and valued as it is your money (rates) that fund the vast majority of the services provided in our municipality. I’m keen to get your ideas about where we can reduce expenditure in particular. Until next time, best wishes Eugene and Paul at the Nunawading Community Gardens. Eastern Health Director of Oncology Professor Parente, Chair Councillor Robert Chong, and Eastern Health Foundation Director Anne Gribbin.

PRINCIPAL Sponsor MAJOR Sponsor Associate Sponsor Media Partners 8.30pm-10pm Screening of Red Dog Play Space opens W hitehorse City Council has completed the much anticipated upgrade of the East Burwood Reserve play space. The new play space at the northern end of East Burwood Reserve, near the tennis courts, has been redeveloped to create a more accessible and stimulating play environment for children in the local community. The play space features a variety of climbing, swinging, sliding and sensory play experiences, as well as a safe rubber playground surface. The play equipment includes a multi-activity combination unit with a basket swing, monkey bars, rock climbing wall and a flying fox. As well as play equipment, there are also natural play areas with native plants and a dry creek bed for children to explore natural and sensory play opportunities. Rock boulders and logs have also been placed throughout the play space to provide natural play features as well as informal seating. There is also a central gathering area away from the road but close to the play space with two new bench seats, a grass kickabout area, and new tree plantings to provide shade and enclosure. The play space was designed in accordance with the guidelines of the Whitehorse Play Space Strategy 2011. Neighbourhood houses save with solar olar panels installed at neighbourhood houses in the City of Whitehorse, have helped to significantly lower power bills and reduce coal-generated Selectricity consumption. Council provided funding for solar photovoltaic systems at Clota Cottage Neighbourhood House in Box Hill, Mitcham Community House, Burwood Neighbourhood House, the Bennettswood Neighbourhood House in Burwood, Box Hill South Neighbourhood House, Kerrimuir Neighbourhood House in Box Hill North and Koonung Cottage Community House in Blackburn North. The installation of solar panels has helped Whitehorse’s neighbourhood houses to cut their greenhouse gas emissions and reduce our collective dependence on fossil fuel. They also provide an excellent example to residents and businesses of the benefits of using renewable energy. The project was part of Council’s Energy Action Plan 2009-2014. Council offers a one-off $100 rebate for solar hot water units and $154 for solar panels as an incentive for people to take up renewable energy. For more details, phone Council on 9262 6333 or visit www.whitehorse.vic.gov.au/Solar-Rebate.html Pam Mills of Box Hill South Neighbourhood House with the solar panels installed by Council. 14 Community news FEBRUARY 2015 Chinese New Year Library events O n Saturday 14 February Box Hill Mall will be awash with dazzling colours, sounds, dance and delicious treats for the annual Chinese New Year festival.

Her project as Artist in Residence at BHCAC will involve workshops for adults with a disability who wish to celebrate, develop and continue to explore skills in drawing. Melissa will be running the program in Term 2 and Term 3 and interested people should contact BHCAC on 9895 8888 for more information. Melissa has worked as a community arts worker and coordinator of an arts and crafts studio in Edinburgh, Scotland. Growing up in the Pyrenees region of Victoria on a sheep and wheat farm, Melissa’s work explores the idea of sharing spaces in rural and urban landscapes. Last year, she was the Project Coordinator of the Shaun the Sheep Pompom Parade in the Pyrenees. The Artist in Residence program aims to provide an artist with the opportunity to develop their artistic practice and contribute to the rich cultural diversity in Whitehorse by connecting the community through art. The residency is for a 12-month period during which the Artist in Residence is required to work on a project of benefit to the local community, BHCAC and the artist. The studio provided to the artist is known as the “The Loft” and is a purpose-built studio located in the roofline of BHCAC, overlooking a large ceramics studio and the Centre’s beautifully landscaped gardens. Applications for the 2016 Artist in Residence program will open later this year. Keep an eye on the Whitehorse News and BHCAC's website www.bhcac.com.au for announcements.

Seeking Pop-up Performers A re you looking for a chance to show your talent to the world? The retaining wall at Blackburn Lake has had a makeover with a colourful mosaic mural designed to raise awareness of protecting our local waterways. Council is looking for performers for a new public space initiative in Box Hill over three Fridays in April. The mural was created by local artist Lucienne Noontil, who worked with school students to design mosaic tiles that show the wildlife found at the lake and spell out the slogan “Healthy Waterways Healthy Habitat”. We’re looking for performances suitable for a small outdoor space that are acoustic or that can provide their own amplification. The retaining wall holds the water in Blackburn Lake retarding basins, protecting properties downstream from flooding in case of a major rainfall event. The official opening event will include a welcome to country and smoking ceremony performed by a Lucienne Noontil working representative from the Wurundjeri Tribe Land with a local student. and Compensation Cultural Heritage Council. This will be followed by a guided walk to view the mosaic artwork and learn a little about the habitat and wildlife at Blackburn Lake Sanctuary. Guests can then return to the Visitor Centre and enjoy a free sausage sizzle provided by Forest Hill Rotary and fun activities such as getting close to some wildlife from Reptile Encounters, exploring the Visitor Centre display and taking part in activities organised by Melbourne Water. The artwork is a partnership project between Melbourne Water and Whitehorse Council.
