At the January meeting of the
Berowra RSL Sub-Branch, outgoing
President Mal Nearmy, tendered
his resignation due to work and family commitments. The Sub-Branch
accepted his decision with regret and acknowledges his important
contribution over the past two years.
In a by-election for the position, the Immediate Past President of the SubBranch, Mr Bob Dobson AFSM OAM JP (pictured above) was nominated
and after accepting the nomination he was elected unanimously. The

The Berowra Sub-Branch has engaged local tradesmen for the building of
an Anzac Commemorative Wall at the site of the Memorial (pictured below
- Remembrance Day 2014) near the Community Centre off The Gully
Road Berowra.
The imminent closure of the Asquith Nursery & Pre School and Asquith
Leisure and Lifestyle Centre and Seniors centre has created confusion and

“Why We are Turning our Back on
Hornsby Council ...”
Asquith resident
Joanna Beeston
writes:
Work has commenced on the Wall which will be unveiled and
dedicated on Anzac Day, Saturday 25th April, 2015. The Federal
Member for Berowra, Hon. Philip Ruddock MHR and the State
Member for Hornsby, Matt Kean have been invited to participate.
Grants towards the cost of the Wall and maintenance to the Memorial and
surrounds were received from the Federal Department of Veterans Affairs
and the NSDW State Government.
Watch editions of The Bush Tele Weekly for regular updates on
the Dedication of the Wall of Remembrance.
Philip Ruddock MP
“At the conclusion of the Hornsby
Council Meeting in December 2014,
the three Independent Councillors
moved a Rescission Motion which
stalled Council’s ability to take
any further action in relation to
the closure of Asquith Nursery &
Pre School and the privatisation
of the remaining three Council-run
childcare centres.
This motion was made after the
majority of councillor’s voted to close
Asquith and seek formal tenders
from three private operators for the
remaining three childcare centres.
As a result of the Rescission
Motion the matter is again up for
decision at the Council meeting
on Wednesday 11 February 2015.
A stronghold of community
members would like a new motion
to include an amendment to allow
Asquith Nursery & Pre School to
operate a further 12 months to
help families and staff to transitionout. Additionally they want the
proposed Storey Park Asquith
Community Centre to include
space for a child care facility as
was included in Council’s original
Strategic Plan.
People Power
If you would like to add your
voice to speak to this issue at the
Council Meeting on 11 February
2015 from 6pm, you can register
by phoning Hornsby Council:
9847 6666. We had over 20
speakers appear at the December
Council Meeting so let’s try and
better that this time.
By signing the Petition and sharing
with family, friends and community
members, the harder it will be for
those elected to represent you to
ignore you.

Laughter in the Park
Laughter in the Park
Story & photo by Mick Gallagher of Mt Colah
Laughter Yoga is held every Saturday at 9am in Hornsby Park (near Aquatic Centre) and it’s free.
Story & photo by Mick Gallagher of Mt Colah
Laughter Yoga is held every Saturday at 9am in Hornsby Park (near
Hornsby Aquatic Centre & Cafe) and it’s free.
“Anyone is welcome to join us for a half hour of laughter and light
stretching, followed by a cuppa,” said volunteer teacher Maria Keeler of
Hornsby Heights.
Laughter Yoga is practiced in a group setting, and is extremely
effective – because laughter is contagious! As participants interact, the
exercises stimulate laughter from all members of the group. One of the
objectives of Laughter Yoga is to cultivate childlike playfulness, which
KHOSVSDUWLFLSDQWVWRODXJKZLWKRXWUHDVRQ3HRSOHRIDQ\¿WQHVVOHYHODQG
age group are able to participate.
Laughter Yoga is based on the principles developed by its founder Dr
Madan Kataria, (The ‘Guru of Giggling’), a medical doctor from Mumbai,
India. It combines laughter-based activities, clapping and breathing into an
exercise routine. It is based on the body’s inability to distinguish between
real and fake laughter – both provide the same wonderful physical and
SV\FKRORJLFDOEHQH¿WV7KHODXJKWHULVVLPXODWHGDW¿UVWEXWLWYHU\TXLFNO\
turns into real, spontaneous laughter.
In our busy world we often miss the opportunity to really stop and just
laugh uproariously the way we did when we were children. Laughter Yoga
creates a space for people to have fun and release pent up stress and
tension through a good deep belly laugh. Laughter is nature’s antidote to
VWUHVVDQGVFLHQWL¿FUHVHDUFKKDVVKRZQWKDWVXVWDLQHGODXJKWHUUHGXFHV
the levels of stress hormones in the body and lowers blood pressure,
leading to improved health and wellbeing.
The Hornsby Laughter Club was established in May 2002 by Jan and
Ian Mitchell. For further information contact volunteer teacher Maria
Keeler ph: 9482 2488.

Brooklyn Students Visit
WW1 Parramatta
Story & photo by LCDR Mick
Gallagher RAN/RANR Rtd
With students back at school for
2015, Brooklyn PS students still
remember their last school days of
2014.
On Monday 15 December students
were given a pre Christmas holiday
treat with a cruise on the Hawkesbury
River to visit the wreck of Australia’s

Torpedo Boat Destroyer (TBD)
HMAS Parramatta 1 (D55).
Welcoming them aboard MV
Bay Runner were the ship’s
Master, Justin Pigneguy (ex

The wreck now lies on the northern
shore of the Hawkesbury River
below Cascade Gully opposite
Milson’s Island, and is still visible
even at high tide. 7KHERZDQG

LETTERS
TO THE EDITOR
Dear Bush Tele,
I was also disappointed that the
front cover of The Bush Tele
Christmas edition, (18/12/14),
carefully omitted any mention of
the word “Christmas”(ref Charles
Rawson 15/1/15 and Robin Roberts
22/1/15).
Magazines, schools, shopping
centres etc are always worried
about offending people of other
religions, and of no religion, but
it saddens me to see how it is
apparently OK to offend Christians,
by removing all references to
everything connected to Jesus.
In the past when Jesus was allowed
in our schools, our workplace, our
shopping centres, our country –
everyone seemed to get on with
each other a whole lot better than
we do today. Getting rid of Jesus is
not making the world a better place.
Yvonne Graham, Berowra
Heights
You can’t judge a Bush Tele
by its cover! Ed
Dear Bush Tele,
Surely we are not the only ones to
feel this way?
Dear Dog walker/s … Getting very
frustrated at encountering other
people’s doggy do-do from our
red bin… and the footpath on
occasion… please be advised that
this particular family does not want
your dog poo lurking in the bottom
of the red bin for a whole week
especially when you haven’t got the
decency to bag it! See photo.
After all, the Berowra dog park is
just across the road. Take it with
you and dispose of it there! Please
also note there is a public bin right
outside the Berowra Vet!!!

Dear Bush Tele,
I would like to publish a plea to
the parents of teenage boys in
Berowra to ask where their young
sons are on Saturday nights.
On a recent night around midnight
we were woken by a small group
of obviously drunken young boys,
shouting, swearing and when they
discovered a garbage bin left out,
they proceeded to roll the bin down
the street and then kick it about.
They then returned a short time
later and did it all again.
This happened in the Gwandalan
Crescent area of Berowra.
It used to be a safe, pleasant place
to live. It’s becoming anything but.
Parents need to exercise some
SDUHQWLQJVNLOOVDQG¿QGRXWH[DFWO\
where their sons are when they are
out late at night.
Local Resident, Berowra.
Dear Bush Tele,
The article “New Campaign to get
Drivers & Cyclists Travelling in Sync”
TBTW 22/1/15, has merit if all obey
WKHURDGUXOHVDVVSHFL¿HG7KH
Amy Gillett Foundation has a great
aim, but the awareness of many
DVWRWKHWUDI¿FFRQGLWLRQVDQGWKH
common road rules is lacking.
I cite a recent occurrence which
could have resulted in not only road
rage, but a serious accident:
,ZDVGULYLQJVRXWKERXQGRQ3DFL¿F
Highway where a group of cyclists
were riding legally in the left lane.
:KHQWKHWUDI¿FVWRSSHGEHIRUHWKH
intersection at Kissing Point Road
Turramurra, a number of these
cyclists deviated across the two
southbound lanes and also the two
northbound lanes! I was waiting to
turn right into Kissing Point Road
from the Highway and had two
cyclists ahead of me who were
joined by two more cyclists.
I do respect the right of all to use the
roads, but I do ask the respect of all
to obey the road rules, and also be
aware of the potential for not only
injury, but also the effects of trauma
on all victims. The Amy Gillett story
should not be repeated if we become
more aware of the implications of our
actions on the roads.

BUSH TELE ABROAD
Readers LOVE to send their Bush Tele Abroad photos to us for publication,
and as a result we have a bit of a ‘backlog’ ... so here are a few!
Cheryl Gurney writes:
Dennis & I enjoyed a much-needed 17 day cruise on Radiance of the Seas
around the Top of Australia and over to Benoa, then down the West coast
to Freemantle, WA. This photo above was taken onboard as we sailed
between Port Headland and Geraldton.
Trevor Piper of Berowra writes:
“In September last year Brenton, Glenn and myself explored the
Himalayas on a15 day trek to Mt Everest base camp (5500 metres), Nepal.
Travelling with 10 like-minded expeditioners from around the world, we
experienced the challenges of trekking at altitude on a once in a life trip,
with awesome panoramic views of several of the highest mountains in the
world. We hiked many ancient yak tracks whilst under the guidance of the
nepalese sherpas from Mountain Monarch Trekking.”
Photo above: From left to right - Glenn Robinson of Asquith, Trevor
Piper of Berowra and Brenton Piper of Asquith.
Gabe and Ann Lomas of Berowra took a Bush Tele with them when they
travelled to England in late 2014.
Ann says, “Here we can see Gabe (pictured above) standing in front
of the Grammar School that he attended in Steyning, West Sussex. If you
look carefully you’ll see the date 1614! Yes, Steyning Grammar School
celebrated 400 years in 2014. In fact its history goes even further back into
the mists of time..... “
The Bush Tele travelled to Cardiff, Wales, UK with long time Berowra
Heights resident, Marilyn Smith on her visit to her son, Sean Smith,
daughter-in-law, Rachael and her two Grandchildren, Jessica and Katie
(photo above).
“Sean grew up in Elizabeth Street Berowra Heights but for the past 16
years been living in Cardiff, Wales.”
The photo was taken in front of the entrance to Cardiff Castle.
Here ia a photo
(right) of our much
loved granddaughter
Brie McWhirter (of
Anne Martin and
the late John Martin
and Chris and Ian
McWhirter) in Luang
Prabang, Laos in
January 2015 with
her copy of The Bush
Tele!

HEALTH AND BEAUTY
PRICELESS
PEARLS
By Ralph Estherby
I always surprises me when I find
out that Hollywood has plans
to remake what I consider to be
classic movies. This week I came
across announcements that the new
“Ghostbusters” is going to feature
an all female cast, “The Fantastic
4” is being given a ‘reboot’ with a
twist and that Harrison Ford has
been replaced in the renewal of the
classic “Indiana Jones”.
I am not sure why the movie studios
have this passion for remaking these
classics – it would seem to me that they
were fine as they were and that they
should concentrate on new ideas and
new stories but they don’t – it is obvious
that they want to stick with a winning
story, something tried and tested – they
want to recreate something that already
has had success - they want people to
come to the cinema, pay for their ticket
and then buy the Blue Ray but I think
that there is more to it as well.
Perhaps it is that people desire
familiarity; that new ideas are harder
to sell than old trusted ones; perhaps
it points to the truth that Solomon
pointed out
“That which has been is what will be,
that which is done is what will be done,
and there is nothing new under the
sun.” Ecclesiastes 1:9
Big stories always seem to get retold
and refreshed for each subsequent
generation. We are probably overdue
for a new ‘Titanic’ or ‘Conan the
Barbarian’, I know for a fact that
‘Batman’ is again in production and
probably a lot more that I don’t even
know about… it will be interesting to
see if this trend continues in the
coming years.
I love new stories, new concepts
and new ideas but I have learned
something – men and women are
always striving for something new: new
discoveries; new understandings and
new philosophies. But no matter how
hard they try they cannot ignore the ‘old
truths’ and the ‘old stories’. They may
need ‘refreshing’ as a new generation
looks at them with new eyes but the old
truth is still truth…
A lot of people discount the message of
Christ because it is old…it has a lot of
old tradition attached and occasionally
looks like it is out of date – but just like
the movies made for a new set of eyes,
the story behind the packaging is still
valid and worthy of a fresh look.
I don’t know when the last time was
that you had a look at the Gospel – the
message of Christ – but perhaps it is
time for some fresh eyes?

MATT KEAN MP TO HELP WITH
DEERUBBIN CLEAN-UP
LOCAL RESIDENTS JOINED MILSON
ISLAND SPORT AND RECREATION
CENTRE STAFF LAST WEEK TO CLEAN
UP MOONEY MOONEY’S DEERUBBIN
RESERVE.
The reserve is a popular boat launching site with locals and visitors but become
a dumping ground over recent years and was in a heavily polluted state when
the camp’s staff invited Hornsby State Liberal MP Matt Kean to join them for a
mass clean-up effort.
“It’s appalling to see so much litter and dumping going on at this normally
beautiful spot next to the Hawkesbury River,” Matt Kean said.
Matt Kean thanked the staff at Milson Island Sport and Recreation for taking the
initiative by rolling up their sleeves and organising a clean-up day to remove the
bags of rubbish which we collected.
Staff organisers are hoping to make the clean up an annual event and are
calling on interested members of the community to volunteer their time to help
rehabilitate the surrounding local bushland.
Anybody who spots illegal dumping is encouraged
to contact local councils, the Environment Line on
131 555 or NSW Police or Crime Stoppers on
1800 333 000.

KYB
WHO IS JESUS
OF NAZARETH?
This term at KYB will be studying to find
out who the Bible says Jesus is.
Nazareth was hardly the place you
would expect an important person to
come from but it would seem that God
does not work within the confines of
social norms or expectations.
We are looking forward to discovering
for ourselves just exactly who Jesus is.
KYB is a non-denominational women’s
Bible study which meets every Thursday
during term at St Mark’s Berowra from

School Costs
a financial
burden for
many families
With students heading back to
school for 2015, many families
who are already struggling with
cost of living pressures, especially
after the Christmas and New Year
period, will be feeling the pinch of
school costs.
Major Bruce Harmer of The
Salvation Army says it is
understandable parents want
the best for their children when it
comes to education.
“Most parents understand the
importance of education and
the benefits it brings not only to
their children, but also society
at large,” Major Harmer said.
“As they say, education is one of
the great equalisers in society; it
can literally bring people out of
poverty.”
SENIOR FUTSAL IS
ABOUT START.
We are running competitions for seniors on a
Monday and Thursday Night starting at 7:30pm
all levels and abilities welcome.
Futsal is a variant of Football and is played on a
smaller field and mainly played indoors. It can be
considered a version of five-a-side football.
It was developed in Brazil and Uruguay in the
1930s and 1940s.
In Brazil futsal is played by more people than
football but does not attract as many spectators
as the outdoor sport. Several futsal players have
moved on to careers as successful professional
football players.
For more information please contact Michael
9477 2310 or hornsby@pcycnsw.org.au
LEARN MUSIC WITH THE
HORNSBY CONCERT BAND
The Golden Kangaroos Hornsby Concert Band is set to leap
into a busy year of music in the Hornsby Shire with community
concerts, Baby Proms, parades and street performances.
It is a dynamic community band and new members of all ages and
abilities are welcome in our beginner, intermediate and advanced
concert bands, marching band, stage band and several small
ensembles.
A new Discovery Band for beginners will start 16th February. Past
years have seen retired people and teens, grandparents, parents and
younger family members all learning together.
The Golden Kangaroos new Associate Conductor, Jeanne Hope, said,
“I would like a dollar for every time someone has said to me –
‘I used to play such and such...’ or
‘I gave up playing and really regret it....’, or
‘I’ve always wanted to play an instrument.....’
Well, the Discovery Band is an opportunity to learn with us!”.
“The rewards are many - learning an instrument is a stress buster, it
improves your mental, physical and emotional health, and by pushing
yourself you become a stronger happier person,” said Jeanne.
The band has some instruments available for hire and this is a great
chance to learn in an encouraging environment. And for those who
used to play and had to give up for whatever reason, this is a way to
get back to the pleasure of playing music with others.
The bands rehearse at Beecroft Community Centre on Mondays
and Tuesdays.
To register visit http://www.goldenkangaroos.org.au, ring Paul on
9868 3289 or email membership@goldenkangaroos.org.au
The Economic and Social
Impact Survey, commissioned
by The Salvation Army, shows a
significant number of its clients
found their limited economic
resources had a negative impact
on their children’s wellbeing.
42% of Salvation Army clients
could not afford up-to-date
schoolbooks, equipment and new
school clothing;
38% were unable to afford for
their children to participate in
school activities and outings; and
56% could not afford for their
child to participate in out-ofschool activities (e.g. sports).
Major Bruce Harmer says the
costs associated with the start
of the school year can mean
the difference between a good
education and a not so good
education.
“We all recognise school is a
place of learning,” Major Harmer
said. “However, the educational
experience of students from a
low socioeconomic background
can be seriously impeded if their
parents are unable to afford
the basics such as new school
uniforms, books, pencils, pens
and backpacks, which not only
contribute to their learning, but
also self-worth and esteem.”
Parents who are in need of
back to school assistance at this
time are encouraged to contact
their local Salvation Army for
assistance.
Local contact details are available
from salvos.org.au.

Play Footy with your Mates and Train with the Greats
AFL season is getting closer, so now is the time to register your child to play with
Hornsby-Berowra Eagles.
Boys and girls who play AFL with the Eagles develop new skills, make more
friends and can even train with the Sydney Swans.
For parents and players, every AFL season is brimming with proud moments. Like
the magical thrill when your son or daughter kicks their first goal.
As proud father David recalls, “We couldn’t wipe the beaming smile off Tim’s
face for days”.
With Hornsby-Berowra Eagles every child discovers the power of working as a
team. And as manager Paul Stafford explains, “… that means they share the
glory that comes with a game well-played.”
One of the many highlights of the season is when the Sydney Swans turn up to
Eagles games.
The children’s faces light up when their sporting heroes offer game-changing
advice.
There are many special moments in every child’s AFL season, but 9-year-old
Harry has a favourite, “I kicked a ball with Adam Goodes at the SCG!”
If your son or daughter is aged 5 or over and would love to join the thrill of AFL
in 2015, register with Hornsby-Berowra Eagles now to avoid missing out.
Photo: Harry and Tim with Mike Pyke. Berowra mates Harry and Tim get tips
from Sydney Swans ruckman Mike Pyke.
