2015 ANZAC Day Service at Caroline Springs
Wow! What a fabulous turnout at the
Dawn service. When I woke at 4am
Saturday morning and heard the
rain I half expected it would be
cause to have many not come along
said Peter Burquest, President of
Caroline Springs RSL Sub Branch.
If that were in fact the case, imagine
the crowd, as it was the police
estimated in excess of 3,000 in
attendance. Itʼs just great to see our
community grasp the significance of
the day.
The committee of RSL Sub Branch,
take this opportunity to thank the
public for their generosity over the
badge selling week prior to Anzac
Day, as well as the fantastic efforts
of the volunteers. Of course thanks
must go to all the businesses and
.

sponsors
[too
many to list but
they know who
they are] for
looking after the
RSL Sub Branch
once again.
Thanks to the
Schools in the region for their
cooperation in providing the
students to take part in the
Ceremony. Thanks to those schools
for inviting us to attend their
Ceremonies through the week
leading up to the day. We had a
pretty tight schedule but managed to
satisfy several, Said Mr Burquest.
A great day was also had at
Caroline Springs FC on Sunday
26th April. Last year we were invited
to perform an Anzac Day Ceremony
for them and this year we continued
with what we hope can become a
yearly event. A good crowd in
attendance and though we tried to
rev the team up, unfortunately they
run out of steam in the last quarter.
From a presidents point of view one
could not be happier with the effort
the committee of this progressing
Sub Branch has put in, not only over
the weeks preceding Anzac Day
03 8390 0555 | 3/2-8 Lake Street
but from our inception. Thanks to all,
including CS and District Lions Club
who gave us a hand to set up,
Caroline Springs Scout group and
Kororoit Creek Primary choir, Said
Peter.
Iʼve probably forgotten someone but
if I have Iʼll put that down to being
absolutely drained.
Cheers, Peter Burquest (President
CS RSL Sub Branch)

Using medical advice to choose lifestyle changes
Paleo, sugar-free, gluten-free, dairyfree, meat-free, low-carb – so many
people are making significant dietary
lifestyle changes without a full
understanding of the food their body
needs to stay healthy now – and in
the future.
Active Medical GP Dr Victor Sammut
says the desire to make dietary
changes is often fuelled by body
image concerns or as a response to
avoid further complications later on
from diabetes, high blood pressure,
arthritis, obesity, sleep apnoea and
other disorders.
“It is fantastic that people are taking
the initiative in doing something about
alleviating their symptoms such as
eczema, asthma, digestive problems
and low-energy and mood,” Dr
Sammut said.
“But it is important to work together
with your GP to make sure that the
changes you make are not depleting
your body of essential nutrients and
making your symptoms even worse,”.
“Low vitamin and mineral levels, such
as iron, in your body can affect your
mood, energy level and lead to
serious
conditions
such
as
osteoporosis and joint issues in the
future.
“Yes, itʼs important to make positive
dietary changes – but not without first
having the appropriate tests done to
show exactly what your deficiencies
are. Otherwise, youʼre just guessing.”
Dr Sammut said the same approach

Mothering is not for the faint hearted
The role of mother encompasses so many other roles: carer, chef, taxi driver, events
coordinator, house keeper, teacher, nurse and the list goes on and on. God has placed in
mothers such a capacity to show love with whatever skill is needed at the time!
Mothering is not for the faint hearted! From the moment your first child is born your life has
changed forever. You discover a new set of emotions joy, fear, love that you never new you
had. When my first daughter was born I really had no idea what it was to be a mother but
somehow you just do it and learn as you go. By baby number six I felt like I was swimming,
trying to keep afloat. The endless nappies, mess, fatigue, noise. As each baby came along,
life got fuller, crazier and I wouldnʼt change it for anything!
To be a mother is a God given privilege with huge responsibility. The Bible tells us, “Children
are a heritage from the Lord and a reward” (Psalm 127:3). To be able to mould and guide a
young life is not easy but I have found that where God has given us a task to do He gives us
the guidance and help to do it. Even when we make mistakes children are very forgiving and
loyal and so is God!
I donʼt have nappies to change anymore but life is no less full. As my girls get older I am still
needed to be there for them, to listen, to soothe, to give advice, to be a constant for them in
a world that is full of pressures. I need Gods guidance all the more.
I thankfully have had my mother to help teach me be a mother. Many donʼt have this, or their
experience of their mother has not been a positive one. We need to help each other.
Here are three things I have learnt that may help you:
1) Lighten up on myself! I am not perfect I will make mistakes but I will never stop trying to be
the best mum I can be.
2) My children donʼt need to have the best of everything to survive. We have loved second
hand clothes! My girls love it if someone gives us a bag to rummage through as much as
they love going and buying something new. I realized to that they donʼt need a gourmet lunch
everyday to confirm Iʼm a good mother.
3) God is my help. Short prayers of ʻHelp Iʼm sinking!” do work! So many times when I have
prayed that prayer at moments of feeling totally overwhelmed God has answered with help.
Maybe a friend has called at the right time or a child has said something that melts my heart!
To mothers who are feeling overwhelmed, hang in there, talk to other mums and go easy on
yourself. Realize that it is a privilege to be a mother and there is help to do it. To those who
havenʼt had a good example to follow, forgive your mum and choose to do better. To those
who support mums, keep loving them they need you. The Bible is also clear that we need to
honour our mums. Exodus 20:12 says “Honor your Father and your mother,” This is the only
command that comes with a promise, “so that you may live long and that it may go well with
you” (Deuteronomy 5:16).

ANZAC DAY CENTENARY – LEST WE FORGET
This year marked the 100th anniversary of the
landing at Gallipoli, a day that history we will not
forget.
I had the honour today to join the Melton and
Caroline Springs community to pay tribute to those
men and women who have fought and died in
service of our nation.
The Anzac Day
C e n t e n a r y
celebrations
recognised
not
only the original
Anzacs
who
served at Gallipoli
and the Western Front, but commemorate more
than a century of service by Australian servicemen
and women in wars, conflicts and peacekeeping
operations.
With thousands of residents attending the
ceremonies in Melton and Caroline Springs, it was
inspiring to see so many people acknowledge the
brave men and women who have served, and
continue to serve, our nation during times of war
and peace.
On this significant anniversary we remember the
bravery, courage and sacrifice of all who served
and give our eternal gratitude to the sailors,
soldiers, airmen and women, past and present, who
have given so much for us and our country.
Australians have fought and fallen
in Europe and Africa, in Papua
New Guinea through to Korea,
Malaya, Vietnam, and more
recently, Iraq and the mountains
of Afghanistan – defending
nations and keeping us at peace.
We salute their service and
honour their memory.
Lest we forget.

BRENDAN OʼCONNOR MP

Snap Send Solve allows citizens
anywhere in Australia to easily capture
and report on common issues including
Litter, Hard waste, Parking, Street
Cleaning, Trees, Noise, and also provide
a general request or general feedback.
Thanks to the high technology in the
iPhone, reports submitted by citizens
automatically contain exact GPS
coordinates of the issues and optionally,
a photographic record.
Already in use by nearly 30,000
Australians, Snap Send Solve has
drawn critical praise from users and
currently has a 5 star rating on iTunes.
One user commented, ʻI used the app
recently when I was walking along my
street - I took a photo of a pile of rubbish
that had been in front of the local preschool for over a week and sent it
instantly. Within 24 hours the rubbish
had been removed.ʼ
If you do not have artwork let us know and we can get it designed for you.
The app is being recommended by
many councils around Australia.

Gideon Kowadlo, a director of Outware
Mobile,
the
Melbourne
based
developers behind Snap Send Solve
said 'the app uses an advanced
mapping system to match a location to
a council so the citizen doesn't need to
know anything about their position to
report a problem to the right council.

Caroline Springs Fire Brigade
Only working smoke alarms save lives
At the end of daylight saving, change your smoke alarm battery with a long life battery when
you change your clock. House fires occur more frequently during the winter months. It makes
sense to begin winter with a working smoke alarm.
If you have a hard-wired smoke alarm, these still have a battery as a back up and the battery
needs to be changed as well.
It's absolutely crucial that every Victorian household has a working smoke alarm as these
have been shown to reduce the likelihood of death in a house fire by 60 per cent.
Smoke Alarms
Smoke alarms are inexpensive and easy to install. When choosing an alarm for your home, be sure to select one that
meets Australian Standard AS 3786.
There are two types of smoke alarms - ionisation alarms that predominantly detect the presence of extremely small
particles of smoke, and the newer photo-electric alarms that detect visible smoke.
Research indicates that although both types of alarms give occupants time to escape; photo-electric alarms are
consistently more effective at detecting smouldering fires in homes.
CFA urges all householders to supplement their existing ionisation smoke alarms with photo-electric alarms
that comply with and quote Australian Standard AS3786.
Maintenance
Despite the regulations, research suggests only 45 per cent of properties attended by fire
services had smoke alarms and, of those, 31 per cent were not working.
You can ensure your smoke alarm is constantly protecting your family by keeping it in
good working order.
Test it weekly by pushing the test button with a broom handle to make sure it
beeps
Dust the alarm with a vacuum cleaner brush
Change the battery at least once a year. It's easy to remember if you do it when
you adjust your clock for daylight saving
For more information on the recommendations for smoke alarm usage and fire escape plans visit www.cfa.vic.gov.au.

Caroline Springs Police Station
Community Update
Hello Readers,
Welcome to all our new and regular readers of
the Caroline Springs Community Update.
As this article goes to print many sectors of the
community have just recognised ANZAC Day.
For many this is a very special day and a
chance to reflect upon the sacrifices our family
and friends, past and present, have made. Our
thoughts are also with our current serving
members. It was encouraging to see such a
turn out at our local services even with
inclement weather.
This month I would like to talk about personal
safety. This may be from a family violence
perspective or simply getting about in the
community. For example going for a run, living
on your own or using public transport, to name
a few. I encourage people to visit this site,
www.police.vic.gov.au to seek information on all
areas of safety. If you do not have access to a
computer please feel free to call into your local
station a request the specific information you
were after.
In particular, Victoria Police recognises the
impact that Family Violence has on all members
of the community and a large number of
resources are available on our website. I have
taken an excerpt from this page in order to
explain what family violence means.
The Family Violence Protection Act 2008
defines what 'family' means and what family
violence is, for the purposes of establishing
whether crimes have been committed.
Broad family, past relationships and 'family-like'
relationships are included in the law. Many
people are surprised at what is defined as family
violence these days. While family violence
includes serious physical assault by a live-in
partner it also includes psychological and
emotional abuse, sexual assault and economic
abuse among other behaviours.
You may not know whether the family violence
you are concerned about is a criminal offence
or not, but that is the responsibility of police to
determine. . If something has happened, or is
continuing to happen, that makes you fearful or
doubtful we encourage you to come and speak
with us as soon as possible.
Even if there is not enough evidence to charge
someone with a crime, any form of family
Page 44
violence is unacceptable and Victoria Police
also have non-criminal options that they can
use to keep you safe and to make sure that the
perpetrator is held to account and can get the
help they need.
The message that we would like to reinforce
with this article is the importance of coming
forward and getting help and accessing
support services. The community can access
many local services via council or alternatively
look at the “Support and Welfare Information”
on the Victoria Police Family Violence site.
From the Melton Highway Patrol, operation
Crossroads, ran over the Easter period. This
operation was about reducing road trauma and
arriving safely. Unfortunately there was a fatal
car accident over this period and a number of
other collisions resulting in injury.
Speed
related offences still featured high on the
results, over 40% of the total offences
detected.
From Acting Senior Sergeant
FILBEY; “Speeding offences continue to be the
most detected offence, and it is disappointing
to see so many motorists not just creeping over
the speed limit by a few kph, but intentionally
driving at speeds well above the posted limit
thus putting themselves and other road users
at risk.”
In total about 100 offences were detected and
these were by Police on the roads enforcing
safety.
Last month I mentioned the intersections at
Melton Highway and Gourlay Road and also
Melton Highway and Plumpton Road. Both of
these intersections still remain the most
significant in the area for collisions.
Last month I also spoke of the intersection at
Troops Road North and the Western Freeway,
Rockbank. This intersection continues to be
overly represented in our collision figures and
there is plans for Vic Roads to upgrade this in
the not too distant future but in the mean time
we ask the community to remain cautious
when travelling through it.
In respect to hoon driving, please be aware
that the community can report cases to Crime
Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
A final reminder also for any members of the
community who are just embarking on their
driving journey or are a parent of someone who
is; you may be interested in attending a
Community Road Safety Forum. You can learn
more about the road rules and the effects of
road trauma on our community. The event will
be held at Catholic Regional College,
Performing Arts Centre, 109 Bulmans Road,
Melton, on Wednesday the 6th of May at
6:45pm. There is even a chance to win 6 free
driving lessons. For further information please
contact me via email.
A reminder to all readers that if anybody needs
to report an incident which requires Police
attendance then please dial “000”. Contacting
the station directly or sending an e-mail is not
appropriate in this case.
Phone/e-mail
messages should NOT be left for the reporting
of crime.
Opening hours for Caroline Springs Police
Station are Monday to Friday 9:00am – 5:00pm.
If for any reason you may need to attend the
Caroline Springs Police Station, please
consider calling first. Our priority will be to
always place a patrol unit on the road to answer
emergency calls. Please be aware that
regardless of the station operating hours we do
provide a 24hr police response. Should you
need to attend a police station please consider
any of the 24hour stations in the area, Melton,
Keilor Downs or Sunshine.
Before I go I am happy to hear from anyone in
the community about a safety or policing issue
they have experienced. If there is an issue you
would like to discuss with me or explain in
future updates please email my office at
[email protected] or
alternatively feel free to call me on 9361-4700.
A further way to keep updated with current
events in our community is to visit the Victoria
Police
Facebook
page,
www.facebook.com/victoriapolice
Remember to take care of each other and donʼt
forget that community safety is everyoneʼs
responsibility.
Thanks for reading.

Council welcomes funding for
Melton town centre works
Melton City Council has welcomed the announcement of
$200,000 in State Government funding to go towards the Melton
town centre revitalisation project.
The funding will go towards stage 1 and 2 of the project that will
deliver works in the vicinity of the Courthouse and Palmerston
Street, Melton.
Justice of the
Peace Available
Cr Sophie Ramsey, Mayor of the City of Melton, said the
revitalisation of the Melton town centre was a priority for Council.
“On behalf of Council I would like to thank the State Government
for this funding, which will help us to enhance the amenity and
pedestrian access in the centre of Melton,” the Mayor said.
There is now a Justice of the Peace
available to witness and certify all
documents free of charge at the
following locations:
“The Melton Town Centre Revitalisation Project will provide
much improved pedestrian and bicycle access to the Melton
Library and Learning Hub and create a place for events, play,
relaxation, performances, outdoor dining and a safer precinct for
all.”
Council has also submitted an application to the Federal
Government for $6.75 million through the National Stronger
Regions Fund (NSRF), for stages 1- 4 of the project. The
outcome of the application is expected to be known in May.
