  • A Social Geography of the Mornington Peninsula (Dr Ian Manning)
    A social geography of the Mornington Peninsula (Dr Ian Manning) This article was prepared for the George Hicks Foundation as part of a background paper for a meeting of philanthropists interested in work on the Mornington Peninsula. An evaluation of the costs and benefits of providing educational assistance to disadvantaged families living on the Peninsula is provided in a separate posting. The Mornington Peninsula Shire is known as a place where people can live near the sea, perhaps within walking distance of the beach or on a bluff with a view over the bay, or perhaps among the hills within easy driving distance of the beach. The peninsula faces Port Phillip Bay across a crescent of beaches along which there is a near-continuous strip of urban development, backed by a range of hills which, once over the ridge, slope down to Westernport Bay to the east and Bass Strait to the south. Paradise? Yet not for all residents. As will be shown below, the peninsula has its disadvantaged families, some of them scattered across the shire and some of them concentrated in two main pockets of disadvantage, one centred on Rosebud West and the other on Hastings. Geographically, the peninsula contrasts sharply with the western shore of Port Phillip Bay, where a basalt plain comes down to the sea and separates Melbourne from Geelong. Though similar in distance from Melbourne to the City of Geelong (that is, 60-110 km), the peninsula lacks Geelong’s historic, independent city centre; instead, the peninsula shades from outer suburb to peri-urban; built-up to semi-rural.

    June 1946 MEM. NAT. Mus. V1cT., 14, PT. 2, 1946. https://doi.org/10.24199/j.mmv.1946.14.06 THE SUNKLANDS OF PORT PHILLIP BAY AND BASS STRAIT By R. A. Keble, F.G.S., Palaeontologist, National Jiiiseurn of Victoria. Figs. 1-16. (Received for publication 18th l\fay, 1945) The floors of Port Phillip Bay and Bass Strait were formerly portions of a continuous land surface joining Victoria with Tasmania. This land surface was drained by a river system of which the Riv-er Y arra was part, and was intersected by two orogenic ridges, the Bassian and King Island ridges, near its eastern and western margins respectively. \Vith progressive subsidence and eustatic adjustment, these ridges became land bridges and the main route for the migration of the flora and fauna. At present, their former trend is indicated by the chains of islands in Bass Strait and the shallower portions of the Strait. The history of the development of the River Yarra is largely that of the former land surface and the King Island land bridge, and is the main theme for this discussion. The Yarra River was developed, for the most part, during the Pleistocene or Ice Age. In Tasmania, there is direct evidence of the Ice Age in the form of U-shaped valleys, raised beaches, strandlines, and river terraces, but in Victoria the effects of glaciation are less apparent. A correlation of the Victorian with the Tasmanian deposits and land forms, and, incidentally, with the European and American, can only be obtained by ascertaining the conditions of sedimentation and accumulation of such deposits in Victoria, as can be seen at the surface1 or as have been revealed by bores, particularly those on the N epean Peninsula; by observing the succession of river terraces along the Maribyrnong River; and by reconstructing the floor of Port Phillip Bay, King Bay, and Bass Strait, and interpreting the submerged land forms revealed by the bathymetrical contours.

  • Death of Johnny and His Burial on the Foreshore at Mccrae
    10. Death of Johnny and his burial on the foreshore at McCrae Johnny’s death and burial occurred in a later and different era, the gold rush period, 11 years after the Protectorate moved from the Mornington Peninsula. I came upon the location of his grave when seeking information from George Gordon McCrae’s journal about George Smith. Then George Smith turned out to be the earliest legal licence holder of the foreshore where Johnny was buried. I was struck with the intimacy, the connectedness of these people, black and white, in those far-off days: here are the same people, Bogy Bogy/Pereuk and George Smith, first met with in the Protectorate era. And when I went down to the lighthouse precinct to estimate what George Gordon McCrae might have meant by ‘a little to the south of the present lighthouse’, it seemed obvious that Johnny was buried either beneath a public car park or possibly beneath Point Nepean Road. We must walk unknowingly over Aboriginal graves on the Mornington Peninsula, but it is quite a different matter to park vehicles and trailers on a grave once we know it is there. This chapter brings together all the information gathered about Johnny’s death and the location of his grave site. Aboriginal Affairs Victoria will act on the matter. The most well-known account of Johnnie’s death comes to us from the journal of Georgiana McCrae: it survived almost by accident, being included in a portion of Georgiana’s diary ‘Scrip scrap’ which had become separated from the rest of her journals and was found damaged and disordered in her desk:1 it is a brief and moving account.

  • Site: Cape Schanck
    Site: Cape Schanck About Cape Schanck: Cape Schanck is located at the southern tip of the Mornington Peninsula and separates the waters of Bass Strait from Western Port Bay. This site provides students with an amazing real-life view of coastal features such as caves, wave cut platforms and stacks. The site can be used to: • discuss the physical processes that have caused this environment to be in a constant state of change and; • evaluate the management strategies that have been put in place to ensure the sustainability of this environment. The bonus of this site is that students will hopefully be stunned by the views and the power of the ocean. Such experiences tend to make students more open for discussion about how to protect these environments. To access this site travel along Boneo Road, then turn into Cape Schanck Road. There are ample parking spaces and toilet facilities are available. There is no charge for entry. There is a walking track to a viewing area followed by a board walk with several steps down to the base of Cape Schanck. Note: The later part of this walk is not accessible for those in wheel chairs and may not be suitable for those with other disabilities. If possible it is best to visit this site at low tide as more of the features are visible. Here is a map to the carpark. Some information about Cape Schanck can be found at the Parks Victoria website Fieldwork Activities: Please note that not all of these activities need to be completed.

  • Mornington Peninsula National Park Visitor Guide
    Mornington Peninsula National Park Visitor Guide Mornington Peninsula National Park is renowned for its historic features, outstanding scenic headlands and sandy beaches along the Bass Strait coast. It is popular for swimming, surfing, diving, fishing, walking and nature sightseeing. Parks Victoria aims to protect the natural and cultural features of the park while encouraging visitors to appreciate and enjoy the area. Mornington Peninsula National Park is part of an Aboriginal cultural Bushrangers Bay landscape in the traditional Country of the Bunurong People.
