By Sophie Fitzgerald The curtains will rise early this month as the Scone Community Amateur Dramatic Society (otherwise known as SCADS) prepare for the commencement of its 118th prestigious production which will launch itself during the Scone and Upper Hunter Horse Festival. Simon William’s comedy, ‘Nobody’s Perfect’ will be performed at Scone’s ‘Old Court Theatre’ in Kingdon Street with the cast of five having worked tirelessly under the leadership of director Gillie Hayes in rehearsal and preparation for the show. Gillie had first performed for SCADS in 1962 when Scone’s Courthouse was first converted into the impressive theatre, which has recently been undertaken by the Upper Hunter Shire Council to assist in restoration. The first production saw NBN’s cameras capturing the historical moment as Gillie played the leading role in ‘Bold Lover’, and since then, she has continued to be actively involved as a performer and director. ‘Nobody’s Perfect’ is a delightful comedy about a statistician who wants to become a writer and resorts to subterfuge to have his novel published by a feminist publishing house. Living in the same house as his teenage daughter and ‘out there’ father creates some humorous situations. The local on-stage cast consists of Damien Saunders, Nicole Wild, Liza White, Phil Charley and Michael Cook with a backstage crew of four. The ten performances will consist of one matinee show on 19 May and the remaining performances on the 11, 15, 16, 23, 24, 25, 30, 31 May with the finale being held 1 June. So whether you are a theatre connoisseur or comedy enthusiast, make sure you head to the office of Kate Mailer Solicitor in Liverpool Street, Scone to purchase

  • Robyn Parker MP Minister for the Environment Minister for Heritage
    Robyn Parker MP Minister for the Environment Minister for Heritage MEDIA RELEASE 17 April 2013 HUNTER REGION SHINES DURING NATIONAL HERITAGE WEEK The Hunter will celebrate two centuries of agricultural history today when the NSW Heritage Minister, Robyn Parker announces the listing of Tocal College on the State Heritage Register this afternoon as well as releasing a comprehensive study into the region’s pastoral homesteads. NSW Heritage Minister, Robyn Parker will visit Tocal College this afternoon with the Chair of the NSW Heritage Council, Professor Lawrence Nield to mark this significant event. Ms Parker said Tocal College and the Hunter Homesteads Project report showed how important agriculture was in the settlement and growth of the Hunter Valley – and remains today. “The 1965 Tocal College complex is a modernist masterpiece and one of Australia’s leading agricultural learning institutions, set in the grounds of one of the country’s oldest pastoral homesteads and a still thriving farming complex teaching new generations about agriculture,” Ms Parker said. “It takes inspiration from the colonial farm buildings of the original 1841 Tocal homestead, with carpentry detailing that emulates the craftsmanship of builders a century and a half ago. “The soaring roof trusses of the hall have the grandeur of a Gothic cathedral and were inspired by the Tocal barn designed 100 years before by Colonial architect Edmund Blacket. “The astonishing spire of the chapel is a feat of engineering, while the interior of the chapel is designed to maximise light and sunshine.” Ms Parker said the popularity of Tocal College and the Tocal Field Day in May showed just how important agriculture remains to the story of the Hunter.

  • The Transformation of the Open Forest and Indigenous Grasslands
    Chapter 6: The Transformation of the Open Forest and Indigenous Grasslands Hunter’s River, without any flourish, is a fine settlement; the whole country appeared as if it wanted mowing – large flocks and herds are fast accumulating and many settlers are investing considerable property in building, fencing and clearing. All are rising into that desirable condition of having bread enough and to spare. In a few years they will constitute a powerful squirealty, truly enviable, if they preserve the free, guileless, open and generous character of an English country gentleman. (Monitor: 23/6/1826). Introduction The European settlers walked into manicured indigenous parkland with a rich diversity of grasses and forbs, see Box 6.1. The transformation of this grassland was to be rapid and irreversible. This chapter deals with that transformation and brings it to the context of the present day where a range of exotic grasses, eucalypts and cattle compete to dominate the landscape together with a changing series of influences from humans. The transformation of the landscape has been significant and the factors involved are complex. Chapter 3 on the Indigenous influences concluded with a description of the vegetation of Tocal as we believe it would have been prior to the arrival of Europeans. This analysis and map should be seen as the starting point for the contents of this chapter. Europeans inherited a rich and diverse grassland system, dotted with trees and a broad biodiversity of plant life. The River would have been fringed with a significant rainforest and wetland vegetation complex, which imparted stability to the ecosystem.
