AGM: Steels Creek Community Centre

Many thanks to those that attended the AGM last Thursday evening.  It was, as predicted, a quick meeting, with reports from each of our groups as well the financial run down for the past year.  Our committee executive for the next 12 months is Kerry Guthrie (President), Maree Rothwell (Vice President), Julie Wilcox (Secretary) and Craig Irvine (Treasurer). Tara Bennett and Amanda Williams have also come on board as a general member and Exchange Hub representative respectively.

SC Exchange Hub: 27th September 10am to 11am 

The next Exchange Hub will be held on the 27th September.  There will also be our monthly Community Centre busy bee at 9 am on the 27th.  All are welcome.

Bushfire Resilience Inc

As you would have all experienced yesterday, there was some wild weather about.  Quite a bit of debris being blown about the place, and a good reminder that as the warmer months approach, we need to look to fire preparation for our properties. 

Some of you will be aware of BRI and the webinars they produce on fire safety. Below is an information sheet on who they are and what they do, with a QR to take your to their website.  There is also a flyer with the first of the webinars for the season. This information has also been put to the Steels Creek Community Facebook page (early September)

Dixon’s Creek Landcare: Tour of local business

Yarra Valley Equestrian Landcare: Workshop, Saturday 13th September 2025, 9am

As landowners we are all concerned about how the future of hotter drier years will affect our properties and our animals. We need to be proactive in learning about climate change and its effects so that you’re not caught out.  By understanding what to expect and planning for ongoing weather changes, we can prevent expensive damage and repairs, and as horse owners, we can ensure our horses remain happy and healthy.
Climate change is here and more change is on the way, so the reality is we need to be ready.  We invite you to be part of this informative upcoming one day session;
                                                    “Building climate resilience on horse properties”
Topics include;
-overview of changing climate impact and this year’s drought conditions;
-feed and water budgeting – managing your water resources;
-long term planning and property design using the good years to prepare for the bad;
-managing fodder supplies, unexpected pest plants from interstate fodder supplies;
-making use of novel fodder sources and potential health issues;
-incorporating shelterbelts and using regenerative agriculture principals.

Maroondah Aqueduct Bridge closure, Eltham-Yarra Glen Road

Below is a screen shot of the Victoria Transport web page relating to the upcoming closure.  This information was taken today but it does not mean it won’t change between now and the 21st September.

The map of the detour roads has also been updated, in part, due to some serious lobbying by members of our community, to have the highlighting of Steels Creek Road removed.

SC Exchange Hub: Saturday 23rd August 10-11am

This morning will also be our monthly busy bee, from 9am.  There are always plenty of little jobs around the centre that need doing and anyone able to join in an assist is always appreciated.

Yarra Ranges Council News – Two heritage bridges complete!

The Yarra Valley Trail extends ever longer with the 1km section north of McIntyre Lane ready to ride from mid-August. Excitingly, this section of the trail includes two restored iconic rail bridges.

The old trestle bridges have been rehabilitated and made safe to ride with the addition of steel reinforcements. The horizontal steel beams have been clad in a timber facia, re-milled from the original bridge timber to ensure the bridges’ historical charm is maintained, while meeting modern safety standards.  More information on this project and others planned can be found here

Maroondah Aqueduct Bridge closure, Eltham-Yarra Glen Road

The next stage of the repairs to the aqueduct bridge has been rescheduled for the September school holidays and will result in the road being closed between Steels Creek Road and Mt Wise Road.  According to the Transport Victoria website the closure dates are 20th September to 5th October, however, please be aware these dates could very well change.  There is quite a lot of information regarding these planned works on the Transport Victoria webpage (much more than can be put in this newsletter) so please click here for a more detailed outline of the impacts for this work.  I think it is fair to say, we may experience greater road traffic on Steels Creek Rd during this period.

Downhill run to Christmas!! (I can hear the groans already……..LOL)

And we are back for the second half of the year. There does not appear to have been a great deal of action in the valley over the past month, apart from the very welcome rain fall.  After a flurry of excavator activity up and down Steels Creek Rd cleaning out dams, they are finally starting to fill once again. Good news indeed.

Remember, the Grapevine is here to get information out to the community, so please make use of this community resource.  The aim is to have two publications a month, issued on a Tuesday, though if there is no news, no issue.  We also have the Community Facebook page for more immediate updates and notices.

SC Exchange Hub: Saturday 9th and 23rd August 10-11am

The 23rd August will also be our monthly busy bee, from 9am.  This past Saturday, we spread a load of mulch, very generously donated by Emanuel, new owner of Yarra Valley Garden Supplies.  Ivan, in continuing his “Best on Committee” form, spoke to Emanuel and engage his support/sponsorship in kind for the community centre for which we are very grateful.  So if you are looking for garden supplies, venture on down to Yarra Valley GS and chat to Emanuel.

One of the areas we mulched.

Ritchies Card: Community Fundraising

Don’t forget to nominate the Community Centre as your Ritchies Community Benefit Program recipient. The Community Centre has ongoing costs associated with keeping the doors open so all proceeds are gratefully accepted.  Thank you to those who have already nominated the Community Centre as their special recipient.

Please click here for more information on the loyalty card and how to nominate your association for support.  It really is worth it for the community centre and the committee does appreciate your support.

AGM Season:

This is a heads up that AGM’s are about to be schedule for all associations in the coming months.  All need to be held before the 30th November each year.  Now I know everyone is groaning because, really, who likes an AGM??  However, they are a fundamental part of every incorporated association, and also a good way to hear about what has happened within the particular association over the past 12 months. So please look out for the official notices when they come out and seriously consider coming along, to support the work each committee does for their particular association.

Have something you’d like to promote via the Grapevine? Or maybe something to sell, buy or swap? You can submit an article online here or send an email to thegrapevine@steelscreek.vic.au.

A couple of quick notices before a mid year hiatus of  Grapevine Goodness!                              (The next grapevine edition will be on the 29th July)

SC Exchange Hub: Saturday 28th June 10-11am

The bimonthly get together is on again this Saturday.  If you have any excess goods to bring along (hay, maybe???!), come down for a cuppa and a chat, starting at 10am for an hour.  Potentially, Ivan will be there from 9am for the monthly working bee.  We have just had our annual council inspection and have had positive feedback on how well the community centre and the grounds have been maintained.  A very big part of this is due to Ivan’s hard work on a regular basis (far and above the busy bee mornings) and we appreciate and thank you, Ivan,  for all your efforts.

Ritchies Card: Community Fundraising

Many of you will be aware of the Ritchies Community Benefit Program, and already have your nominated association in place.  Thank you to those who have nominated the Community Centre and we do receive an amount of money each month, which is greatly appreciated and does assist with keeping the centre doors open.  If you have not gotten around to signing up for a Ritchies card, please consider doing so and have the community centre as your nominated association. If it is already in place, you can change your nominated association at any time, to share the love around (so to speak!)

Below is an extract take from the Ritchies website;

Ritchies have paid over $54 million to over 5,000 clubs, schools and charities from 1993 to the present day.  Our program is such an easy way for organisations to raise funds with no costs involved.  

For an organisation to qualify for a payment, you only require 10 people who nominate the organisation to spend $50 a week to reach the minimum of $2000 for the month. (excluding tobacco, gift cards, and phone recharges). The minimum payment is $10, and there is no maximum, so the more people who nominate your organisation the better. 

Please click here for more information on the loyalty card and how to nominate your association for support.  It really is worth it for the community centre and the committee does appreciate your support.

Winter has finally arrived!!

There will be no Grapevine for the month of July, so if you have a notice to submit please send it through for next Tuesday’s issue (24th June).  

Steels Creek Resilience Gaining Momentum

A pathway to strengthening the resilience of the Steels Creek community was the subject of an open invitation community meeting on Thursday June 5th. It was great to have a cross section of community members with newer arrivals and long term residents actively engaging.
The evening commenced with insights of Resilience Canopy’s facilitator training from Fiona Martin which opened up a discussion on the opportunity to move ahead with a community resilience program.
The open forum agreed the following:
           1. There is sufficient interest and opportunity to work with Resilience Canopy to deepen our understanding
           2. It is crucial that as many Steels Creek Community voices as possible are heard as part of the journey

Thank goodness for the cool change this afternoon! With the recent hot weather and warm northerly winds, bushfire is a substantial risk to the valley and we have had a couple of fire events in the last week – one in Christmas Hills and one along the Yarra Glen-Healesville in Tarrawarra. 

This is a timely reminder to connect with your neighbours to ensure any newbies are on the relevant fire tree Whats App groups.  Peta Whitford very kindly put together the following map with contact details of each fire group co-ordinator for each area.

Busy Bee: Saturday 22nd February @9am

The plan is to have a busy bee session at the Community Centre on the 4th Saturday of each month except December. It is simply an hour of working on the various projects to maintain the community centre facility grounds, and open to all who wish to get involved.

Stoke the fire, peeps………Winter has hit!! 

Community Centre: upkeep of our garden area

Many thanks to those that turned up on Saturday morning for a bit of gardening in our “Flag Pole Garden”.  It is quite amazing how much you can get achieved in an hour and already it is looking quite tidy. There is still more work to be done and we will, in due course, send out a message for the next busy bee. A couple of pics of the action with some of our volunteers.

SC 4Reel: Movie Night Friday 14th June from 6pm

“Keeping Mum’ is this months movie choice – Walter (Rowan Atkinson) a well- meaning Vicar is obsessed with writing a perfect sermon. He is oblivious to his frustrated wifes’ (Kirsten Scott Thomas) dalliance with (Patrick Swayze), his wayward teenage daughter and bullied son. Into this troubled household enters a new housekeeper (Maggie Smith) with her own unique way of solving problems. Great cast; fun; and tongue in cheek humour.

Birdlife Australia – The early May Mother’s Day bird walk was a great success.

The weather gods put on a brilliant sunny Autumn day without a cloud or a breeze. Our guide was Will Mitchell from the Birdlife Australia Birds on Farms Project and the walk was attended by 18 local Landcare members and visitors.  A total of 28 bird species were spotted.

Big thanks to Graeme Hamilton for instigating the walk and allowing us to begin the walk from his property and to Jane and Adam from Rangiora who’s property creek-line we traversed for much of the walk.  Many thanks to Will for his time, guidence and knowledge. We ended the walk with a pleasant chat and morning tea at the tennis center.

Keith dug deep into the vaults for this one!  It’s an oldie but definitely a goodie – “Malcolm” (1986)

Nadia Tass’s film, released originally 38 years ago, struck a national chord with Australians as a genuine expression of Aussie humour.  This charming comedy is the story of Malcolm a “slow witted” young man with a genius for mechanical devices.  It is interesting to see the sensitive treatment by the Director of what we know of today as someone who is on the Autism spectrum.  A really enjoyable movie, a bit slow to start but it builds into a lot of fun.

Peta Whitford OAM: 2024 Australia Day Honour recipient

You may recall from our 15th February Grapevine edition, the announcement of Peta’s OAM award for services to  Australian Orienteering and to services to the Steels Creek Community.  Last Friday, Peta made her way to Government House to receive her award.

“My BIG day, Friday 19^th April 2024

Last Friday was the ‘Investiture for the Presentation of Australian Honours and Awards’.  I was fortunate to have been nominated and accepted for the Medal of the Order of Australia, General Division (OAM) 2024.

Unbeknown to me, some 4 years ago, an idea was moulded and people contacted for their support to have me nominated for an OAM. I had no idea, until late 2023 when I needed to accept my nomination! It was all “don’t tell anyone”!

In total, there were 94 Awards presented at Government House, Melbourne, of which 58 were OAM’s. The Presentation ran like clockwork with staff to guide you every step of the way. Interestingly the presentations were done alphabetically – so I had a while to wait! I was 51st, with 7 people after me. As I took my allocated seat, the woman next to me said “You must be a ‘W’…..!

I was allowed 4 guests, I was proudly joined by husband Ian, daughter Tarli, son Jarrah, and long time teaching friend Carl.  So Friday 19^th April will always remain a day of being very privileged and honoured, with very happy memories of working with so many good Communities and Orienteering groups.  Peta Whitford”

Congratulations Peta, from us all in the Valley.

Peta, with her medal

SC Exchange Hub: February 24th 10-11am

Everyone is welcome to the community centre on Saturday for Exchange Hub.  Feel free to bring along anything you wish to swap or sell, and catch up with other valley residents.

SC Community Centre: Hiring of the centre

The community centre was recently hired for a family function for approx 25 people.  The family were grateful to have been able to hire the centre as it suited their purposes perfectly and wanted to pass on their positive experience, to encourage others to consider the centre as a venue for an event.  Hiring of the centre helps the committee to maintain the building and contributes to ensuring the centre remains available for use to the wider community.  If you would like to enquire more about hiring the centre, please contact Maree Rothwell on 0414 278 649.

The community centre is not only available for functions/events, as other activities can be easily held there, such as our current groups of Art, Stitchers, Bookclub & Gardening Group.  If you know of someone looking for a venue to host an activity, please suggest the Community Centre, and pass on Maree’s contact details.

Happy New Year!!

Back online with the Grapevine for 2024 though it has not been a smooth start, with some technical difficulties being experienced over the past few weeks.  My apologies for the pre Christmas  message coming out early January.

Going forward, the grapevine will still be a regular publication but it will depend on content available for inclusion so may only come out every second week. Please remember this publication is for the community and we would encourage groups and residents to make use of it to promote events, sell items, and other community notices.
