BLACKALL SHOW RESULTS INSIDE
More to follow next week
Last Friday night, the Prince of
Wales hosted a karaoke night with
all door takings donated towards
sending 11 Blackall State School
students to Brisbane in July as
part of a dance troupe.
The students have been
auditioned via DVD and have been
selected to perform as part of the
Creative Generation State Schools
Onstage 2011 variety show at the
Brisbane Convention Centre.
Rehearsals have begun using
a teaching DVD sent out by the
organisers, with Naomi Dolinski
rehearsing the students, supported
by Birrali Schefe from Roma.
Building on dance skills
developed as students of Dance
Blackall over the previous years,
the primary students will perform
two dances and the secondary
students will perform three
dances.
There will be four performances
of the show over two days which
include vocalists, a massed choir,
featured dancers, symphony
orchestra, drama and massed
dance performances.
Tickets for the event are on sale
now through Ticketek.
Fundraising by dancers and
their parents so far has included
a cake stall, raffes, dagwood dog
stall and the karaoke night, with
further raffes and catering in the
pipeline.
Trip organiser Alison Mobbs
said it was wonderful for Blackall
students to have opportunities to
experience being part of a large
scale performance with other
young people in Brisbane.
So many of our young people
struggle with settling in to the urban
life of university. Experiences like
these open their eyes up to what
to expect and what the world has
to offer, Alison said.
It is hoped that the group will
be able to access PCAP funding to
assist with transport.
Karaoke for a cause at the Prince of Wales
Kellie Harlow, Toni McErlean, Helen Hansen & Kym Hancock gave their
best performance at the karaoke night.
Dance teacher Naomi Dolinski was pleased
with the turn out for the event.

From the Editor
Regionalism and all it encompasses
is the thrust of all governments, state
and federal. The Blackall Tambo
Regional Council is not immune
to the forces exerted by these two
spheres of government.
The Blackall Tambo Regional
Council is a member of a regional
body, the Remote Area Planning and
Development Board which meets
monthly by teleconference and face
to face twice per year. The RAPAD
board which has seven member councils is highly
regarded by both state and Federal Governments.
The board has placed great emphasis on
strategically based data and submissions for the
betterment of the councils in the Central West Region
with success in gaining some notable extra funding
for the inter-linking road network. The submission
was a collaborative effort by the Transport and
Main Roads Department, Out Back Regional Roads
Groups and RAPAD. Currently this submission is
with the federal government and we may be fortunate
enough to have them match the state government
funding of 20 million dollars over fve years. Skilling
the Outback is also a division of RAPAD, being an
accredited training organisation which will be of great
assistance for those in need of training to enhance
their skills.
An historic meeting took place on April 28 in Blackall
when the Blackall Tambo Regional Council and the
Barcaldine Regional Council met for an informal
discussion on issues which mutually affect us such
as roads, tourism, pest management, digital
TV issues and waste management. While
the meeting was informal by agreement
there was an opportunity to agree to hold a
further meeting in late September. I foresee
a mutually benefcial outcome from these
meetings for both regions.
The public announcement of the
recent large rises in valuations, set by
the state government Department of the
Environment and Resource Management,
for both Blackall and Tambo have been
unprecedented to say the very least. Council has a
revenue policy in which there are deferential rate
categories to ensure urban landholders are rated
at an equable, sustainable and accountable level
to ensure that the cost of living in both towns is
affordable and that Council only generates suffcient
funds for its needs. In the past council has used the
CPI as the indicator for rises.
Should individual landholders have an issue with
their valuations there is an objections process through
the Department of Environment and Resource
Management which is available to them. Council has
a map on display, of all valuation changes for your
perusal.
The Heartland Festival program for the Festival of
2011 has been published. Lighting Up the West is
the theme and I am sure this will happen over the
time of the festival. Running from May 27 through to
June 5, there will be plenty to see and do and lots of
fun entertainment.
--Jan Ross
FROM THE MAYORS DESK
Coming into the busiest part
of the year the Blackall social
calendar has positively exploded
with events.
It is therefore important that
I get plenty of notice of whats
happening around the district so
that I can make sure not to miss
anything out.
With tourist season picking up,
theres also many visitors coming
through, including a few notable
ones. Author Sue Williams popped
by the Visitor Information Centre
last week while researching her
latest book.
Terri Irwin was also in town,
making a brief appearance at
Outback Chemist on Friday
morning.
If theres anything in the paper to
which you would like to respond,
I strongly encourage you to write
a letter to the editor. I have been
enjoying starting to receive letters
as I feel they are an important part
of any community newspaper.
This is a local newspaper and
therefore it is important to feature
local opinions. Sometimes its only
through hearing from community
members that we can fully
understand how signifcant an
issue is with the Blackall Tambo
district.

Despite overcast skies, the

I understand that Desert
Fish by Cherise Saywell is
classifed as a young adult
novel, however if you are
looking for chick lit- think
again!
This is a beautifully written
debut novel about a young
girl, Gilly, and her longing for
a more fulflling life. Set in the
1970s, Gilly lives in a small
country town in Australia
and is inhibited by lack of
education or the opportunity
of employment in a drought
stricken landscape. The
example for any happiness is
not set by her parents- good-
time Kerry and manipulative
Maureen.
When Pete, golden-skinned
and kind, comes into their
home, Gilly stubbornly clings
to his coming in the way
drought-breaking rains can
bring life, and fsh, to desert
pools.
There are edgy, beautiful
descriptions of Gilly and the
way in which she becomes
an adult throughout the
novel. Each character in this
story is easily recognisable
as someone we have known.
They are deftly described
and the motivations for their
actions logical.
Desert Fish impressed me
with its maturity of outlook
in that though the problems
were analysed clearly, the
author never tried to give a
cosy or unreal solution.
Would I recommend this
book? Yes, if you enjoy well
written themes that engage
your intelligence. Cherise
Saywell is an author of great
promise.

Western Queensland art patrons will be excited
by the news that this years Heartland Festival art
exhibition in Blackall has attracted interest from a
range of artists who havent participated before.
Exhibition convenor Jill Taylor said a number of
these were people who were well known in the art
world, such as Dubbos boot polish artist, Amber
Martin.
Amber is well known for mixing boot polish with
other media to capture the essence of rural life.
The talented 35-year-old mum has also been
commissioned as a war artist for the Australian Army
for the past two years.
With over 200 artworks promised when entries
closed last week, organisers are stunned with the
response they have received.
Last year the event attracted nearly 170 works,
meaning numbers are growing steadily each year.
It confrms the reputation of the Heartland Art
Exhibition as one of the must-see cultural events in
the region, Jill said.
This is the place to buy quality original paintings
and sculptures.
Another exciting development for this years
exhibition is the number of sculptures being sent in
for competition and sale.
The 3D section has attracted works in glass, stone
and stainless steel, silver and clay, Jill said.
It gives patrons a great variety to choose from over
the days of the exhibition.
The frst glimpse people will get of the works
entered, and the frst opportunity to buy, will be
opening night on Friday, May 27.
Beginning at 6pm, the evening is the opening event
for the 2011 Blackall Heartland Festival.
The night, and the festival itself, will be opened by
patron Gina Fairfax.
She will be busy earlier in the day choosing the
Patrons Prize, which will be presented on the night,
along with the announcements of winners in the
various competition sections.
There will also be an opportunity to take tickets in
a raffe of an Auckland harbour boat scene done in
watercolour and pen by feature artist Cees Sliedrecht,
as well as another of a handcrafted Marshal Milne
necklace.
The exhibition will remain open at the Blackall
Cultural Centre until June 2, opening between 10 am
and 3 pm each day for a gold coin entry donation.
The opening night entrance fee is $15 and there
will be substantial fnger food and a bar operating.
For further information contact Jill Taylor on 0448
154 275.

St Josephs Primary School is
getting students into books with
the start of reading mornings this
term.
The frst reading morning was
held last Tuesday, with them to
continue every second Tuesday
throughout the term.
Parents and community are
invited to come up to school on
these reading mornings with a
book, newspaper or magazine
and just spend 20 minutes from
8:40am - 9:00am reading.
Teacher and literacy mentor
Clare Barron said the aim of the
mornings is to show students
that reading isnt only a school
task.
Our hope is that students will
come to love, or even like, reading
and not see it as just a school
thing, Clare said.
We are aiming to encourage the
students to see that reading is a
fun past time and that reading is
used by everyone including our
mums and dads.
Reading mornings started
because of St Josephs
involvement in the National
Partnerships Program.

The Isolated Childrens Parents
Association is still pursuing the
state government for a decision on
whether Year Seven will be moved
into secondary school.
This was one of the proposals
made in the 2010 green paper
titled A Flying Start for Queensland
Children, and was rejected by
delegates at the 2010 ICPA state
conference in Charters Towers.
Queensland ICPA president
Lorraine McGinnis said the only
word from government on the
matter was that they were not
making any decision at this stage.
If they are going to go ahead we
want to see the changes properly
resourced, she said. We have
concerns about what it will mean
for small schools losing another
cohort of students, and children
having to live away from home at
an earlier age.
Ms McGinnis and the state ICPA
council met at Isisford for their
annual midyear catch-up on the
weekend, hosted by the Yaraka-
Isisford ICPA branch.
Blackall branch members Sally
Cripps, Anita Dennis and Sally
Campbell joined councillors for
dinner on Saturday night to hear
updates on various topics, such as
universal access to kindergarten,
the effect of the NBN rollout, and
the need for increases in admin
staff for teaching principals.
The other issue at the top of the
organisations agenda was the
changing of the Priority Country
Area Program to the Rural and
Remote Education Access Program
at the end of 2011.
Ms McGinnis said ICPA had had
three very favourable meetings
with the statewide implementation
team to date, but they were still to
do the funding modelling.
We believe future funding plans
have been based on 2008 school
submissions, and dont take into
account how schools beneftted
from area projects, Ms McGinnis
said.
We are asking schools, once
they know what their funding will
be in the latter part of the year,
to tell us how they feel about their
allocation.
We want to know whether they
can still fund the things they did
in the past, and undertake new
programs.
Ms McGinnis added that schools
close to the east coast were now
included in the program, and
ICPA would be keeping a close
eye to make sure that the funding
wasnt spread too thinly for the
truly remote.

Year seven move still on state ICPA agenda
Blackall ICPA secretary Anita Dennis enjoyed dinner with federal and state ICPA
councillors Peter and Paula Heelan from Clermont at the ICPA state council
dinner in Isisford on the weekend.

There are several workshops
coming up in the near future
across the western district. RCS
held an Applied Grazing workshop
in Emerald from May 9-12 and
a Ruminant Nutrition workshop
on May 13, also at Emerald. The
Qld Government is considering a
fnancial management workshop
to be held on June 8, with more
details available soon whilst
Westpac is planning a fnancial
management workshop.
MLA have offered to run local
workshops if they have the
numbers. Other presenters such
as RCS may do so as well. Anyone
interested should contact the
council EDO on edo@btrc.qld.gov.
au.
A wide range of government
business assistance measures
were outlined at a workshop on
April 7. More details of these will
be summarised over the next few
weeks in the Barcoo Independent.
Many of these government
programs are not all that relevant
for the size and nature of
businesses in the central West, as
has been frequently pointed out to
agency representatives. However
business owners are urged to look
carefully at what is available.
The Regional Roadmap from
Regional Development Australia
is now available on the internet,
see http://www.rdafcw.com.au/
regional-plans-.html.
A key issue here is that projects
not included in this roadmap will
probably not get Commonwealth
funding. However, just because a
project is in the list doesnt mean
it will get funded.
Projects to be funded via the new
Regional Development Australia
Fund need comprehensive
business plans and need to
show how the project will beneft
the wider region. For a list of
projects advanced by Councils in
the region, look at the Six Pillars
component of the Roadmap.
This Roadmap is Edition One and
it will be reviewed annually. The
community is urged to participate
in workshops and other activities
to be organised later in the year.

Even cane toads have uses
in the gardening practices of
Leonie Shanahan and people who
attend her sustainable gardening
workshop during the Blackall
Heartland Festival will fnd out all
about that and more.
Known as a pioneer in the
development of edible gardens,
Leonie will have lots of information
on topics such as compost and
worm farms, the design aspects
of companion planting, and food
as medicine throughout the
day at The Worm Turns healthy
gardening workshop.
She has a passion for health and
decided to change the eating habits
of children with positive actions by
setting up Edible School Garden
programs in schools, giving
children hands on experience.
Leonie has now set up 20 schools
in the Sunshine Coast area and
has taught and changed the eating
habits of thousands of students.
Leonie said her goal was simple.
I realised early on that if children
grow it, they will eat it! I believe
there is an urgent need to spread
this gardening knowledge in order
to improve the health of our kids
the next generation.
Workshop organiser Lindy
Hardie is getting excited about
the day, which takes place on
Tuesday, May 31, frstly at the
CWA Hall then at the home of Jim
and Jill Taylor.
After Leonie runs through the
ideas behind permaculture and
organic gardening the workshop
will move to 14 Bedford Street
for a healthy lunch and a
practical demonstration of no-dig
gardening.
Attendees will see how to create
a compost heap that should be
ready in 18 days.
The $25 entry fee will give people
a sample bag full of vege seeds,
bulbs, some healthy snacks and
information sheets, as well as
morning tea, lunch and attendance
at the workshop.
Copies of Leonies book, titled
Eat Your Garden, will also be
available on the day.
This book is the culmination of
years of questions from children,
parents, teachers and other
gardening professionals, and
those answers put down on paper
for all to read and learn from.
Leonie speaks at many
garden expos, shows and garden
club outings so this is a great

x Department of Environment & Resource Management
issued valuations on 3 May 2011 to each land holder in
the Blackall-Tambo Regional Council. For more than
70 years, the unimproved value methodology was
used in Queensland as the basis to determine statutory
land valuations. Since the introduction of the Land
Valuation Act 2010 (the Act) in September 2010 the
statutory land valuation system has changed to include
two valuation methodologies:
Site value for non-rural land
Unimproved value for rural land
Annual valuations issued were assessed using the two
different methodologies and will take effect on 30 June
2011.
The site value methodology is already used in other
Australian jurisdictions and is more aligned with market
value, making the valuation for non-rural land simpler
and easier to understand
Site Value reflects what the land would be
expected to sell for on the date of valuation in its
current condition, including site improvements
such as leveling, filling, or drainage works that
have been carried out.
This methodology is used to value all non-rural
land.
Unimproved value reflects what the land would
be expected to sell for on the date of valuation in
its unimproved condition. It excludes site
improvements such as leveling, filling, or
drainage works that have been carried out.
This methodology is used to value rural land
Valuations are on display at both offices of Blackall-
Tambo Regional Council from 3 May 2011 to 1 August
2011.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
I wish to voice my support for
some sort of compromise being
reached by whatever means, to the
impasse that Barron Agencies has
in gaining access to conducting
business on appropriate days
at the Blackall Sales Yards.
The missing vested interest not
mentioned here is the people of
Blackall, who own the Blackall
Saleyard Complex and it must
be understood that the Council
really only act as custodians for
a public asset that should be
for the advantage of the whole
community.
Whilst I myself dont use the
facilities, apart from stealing a bit
of manure occasionally, I think
you will fnd that the community
of Blackall would rightly expect
this facility to be available for fair
trade for all as long as they can
offer fair and reasonable business
practices and have a commitment
to Blackall, and let the vendors and
buyers make their own decision as
to who, what and where they give
their own respective support.
I dont think anyone could
argue that Jeremy and Clare
Barron and their children do not
have a commitment to Blackall.
Does the argument come back to
certain groups trying to protect
their own business (for which I
dont blame them, because all
businesses rightfully protect their
own interest), but really to the
people of Blackall that can not be
a consideration, leave that to the
competitive environment.
Unless there is a registered
lease over the facility, then the
council must work to a resolution
of this impasse and due loyalty
and respect should be given to
someone who is willing to invest
back into our community.
Over the years I have had total
confdence in Blackalls future, to
the extent that I have purchased
when nobody wanted to purchase
real estate. That is now proving
to be a very wise and proftable
investment. No business or group
of people have the exclusive right
to any facility in Blackall except
under a legal binding lease that
might have been in existence
before this impasse came about.
I would be correct in observing
that never has anyone purchased
the right to conduct any business
from the people of Blackall, so dont
expect the people of Blackall to
guarantee any exclusive business
opportunities. Just because an
understanding and arrangement
has worked before doesnt mean it
will continue to do so. The people
of Blackall own this facility and
the Council must act to get the
best return for Blackall without
giving favour to what might be the
current status quo.
Jeremy has given to community
organizations like the Blackall
Senior Rugby League and Clare
has given loyal service as a teacher
at our local school, therefore
Blackall must repay this loyalty
and demand a resolution to this
impasse post haste.
While fully understanding the
existing businesses rightfully
working to protect their own
business models, the saleyards is
Blackalls asset, so I urge all parties
to work to some compromise to
ensure we all can feel confdent in
our shared future. The old saying,
Theres no friends in business
holds true, but we must help
nurture those that try.
