Life began in this peaceful country village because his mother had been evacuated from London due to the bombing raids by the Luftwaffe, and sadly Harding never knew his father who was serving in the Royal Navy and went down with HMS Penelope when she was sunk in the Mediterranean in February 1944 with dreadful loss of life. Philip's mother was subsequently remarried to William (Bill) Orton who had been serving in the Middle East with the Royal Corps of Signals. They had two further children and in 1951, tiring of the austerity of postwar Britain, the young Orton family - Philip retaining his father's name at the Harding family's request - decided to emigrate to Australia. The long sea voyage was made in the SS Largs Bay, named after a place meaning nothing to the young Harding, but which he would come to know years later. First Australian landfall was made in Fremantle appropriately on New Year’s Day 1952, the family finally disembarking in Melbourne and making what was Philip's first flight, in a Convair, to Hobart as his stepfather was contracted to work in Tasmania as a teacher. Growing up in New Norfolk, Harding first attended St Virgil’s College as a boarder, which was a challenging experience as a 10 year old new immigrant of whom there were then very few, and subsequently Hobart High School as a day boy. After two and a half years the parents decided that opportunities would be better on the mainland and moved to Adelaide where both Bill and Molly continued teaching careers, initially in Salisbury North. Having some influence in the Education Department, Mr Orton managed to get the young Harding enrolled at Adelaide Boys High School, then a very new school and where Philip completed his education between 1954 and 1957, winning a Commonwealth Scholarship and Leaving Bursary to study medicine at the University of Adelaide, along with the Hugh Cairns scholarship, awarded to an Adelaide High student who is to study medicine. These well resourced scholarships enabled the young medical student to take up residence at Aquinas College in 1958 and it was in the second year of his medical course that life with the RAAF began when, along with university friends Peter Jolly and Ian Favilla, he joined the Adelaide University Squadron, then based at Barton Terrace North Adelaide which was, for Philip and Peter at least, just a short walk from Aquinas. This was obviously a good recruiting exercise as all three had careers of some duration in the permanent air force: Ian Favilla’s life story including Vietnam service appears elsewhere in this book, and Peter Jolly served with distinction as a pilot, flying instructor and eventually commanding officer of 34 Squadron. On completing preclinical studies in 1960, Harding spent a University vacation in Alice Springs with fellow third year student John Campbell, whose father was a veterinary pathologist and also provided the pathology services to the hospital there. Campbell was another early associate who had a distinguished military medical career, this time in the RAAMC as is also detailed in the pages of this book. The visit to Alice Springs was a particularly important life event as it was the occasion of Harding meeting his future wife Rosemary McGrady, a member of the well-known Central Australian Gorey family. It also opened the way to a long professional association with Alice Springs in later life. In 1961 Harding completed a B Med Sc(Hons) in physiology and at the end of 1964 graduated MBBS. In January 1964 he and Rosemary were married, their life together being helped more than a little by his being commissioned into the RAAF undergraduate scheme. Following internship at the Royal Adelaide Hospital (RAH) in 1965, Philip was promoted FltLt and posted to 4 RAAF Hospital at Butterworth, Malaysia. Butterworth was a multiservice base with Army as well as Air Force personnel, both Australian and British as well as a few Malaysians. The Emergency was long over by then and life generally pleasant in the tropical environment

  • At the Time When Our First Colonial Surgeon Dr William Wyatt Strode The
    William Wyatt Oration Dr Philip Harding 17th July 2002 I thank you for the privilege of speaking to you today. I have chosen to deviate from the tradition of Foundation Day addresses and to speak on a contemporary social issue, but at the same time to view it from the perspective of the people and forces responsible for the development of South Australia and indeed the foundation of this hospital 162 years ago this week. It is now 309 days since 11th September 2001 and much has changed in our world. There have been economic burdens, inconvenience and frustration; but above all, a change from our comfortable sense of safety and security to one of uncertainty and suspicion. Obviously, these feelings have been most manifest in the United States; but they have occurred in Australia and last September they became focused on the flow of refugees arriving on our shores, mostly from that very part of the world where the trouble had arisen. Ragged, desperate and terrified people suddenly became potential terrorists. We saw increasing efforts to deflect these arrivals - the so-called "Pacific solution". At the same time, we began to hear international criticism of our treatment of refugees, and were confronted with reports of mental illness, suicide attempts and hunger strikes amongst those detained at Woomera and elsewhere. Since 1999, a large number of boat loads of people seeking refuge or asylum has come to our northern shores mostly by way of Indonesia. Whilst there was the impression of a huge invasion, the fact is that the numbers were but a small proportion of those arriving in countries with land borders or even in the British Isles.

  • 3.0 Adelaide Park Lands & Squares Tulya Wodli
    3.0 ADELAIDE PARK LANDS & SQUARES 3.0 ADELAIDE PARK LANDS & SQUARES 3.1.26 Tulya Wodli/Park 27 Report TULYA WODLI: 435 3.0 ADELAIDE PARK LANDS & SQUARES Tulya Wodli/Park 27 Historical Overview: Site Context Arising from Light’s plan, Tulya Wodli/Park 27 today consists of land bounded by the North Adelaide Railway Line, the River Torrens/Karrawirra Parri, and Port Road and excludes land presently occupied by SA Transport (railways land), Adelaide Gaol, and Thebarton Police Barracks. Originally Tulya Wodli/Park 27 consisted of only a small portion of the present Tulya Wodli/Park 27 and has experienced several administrative boundary changes over the years. Prior to 1899, and Pelzer’s appointment as City Gardener, Tulya Wodli/Park 27 consisted of land that is now the lower Golf Course portion of Park 1, together with the triangular portion of present Park 27 along Park Terrace that was known as Park 27A and comprised 14.2.35 acres (5.7ha). At the time of Pelzer’s appointment the majority of the land from and encircling the Police Barracks across to Morphett Street was used as a ‘Plantation of Olives’, as the Corporation’s Sheep & Cattle Market, a small portion as Railway Reserve, and a rectangular tract next to the Sheep Market as Park 25A. There was no Park designation or reference number that described the present area north of the Police Barracks, nor the land between the River Torrens/Karrawirra Parri and the Port Adelaide railway line. Instead, this land was directly associated with the Corporation’s Slaughter House and Cattle Yards functions, and was principally used as agistment paddocks associated with these functions.

  • Adelaide Botanic Gardens Conservation Study
    5.0 ASSESSMENT OF CULTURAL SIGNIFICANCE Section 5.0 ASSESSMENT OF CULTURAL SIGNIFICANCE Figure 5.1 Extract of Western Wild Garden landscape design prepared by landscape architect Allan Correy in 1964. 199 ADELAIDE BOTANIC GARDEN CONSERVATION STUDY 5.1 KAURNA / ABORIGINAL VALUES In terms of Kaurna and Aboriginal cultural significance to the place, anthropologist Norman Tindale first described the Kaurna tribe as occupying the Adelaide plains and consisting of several groups of people or ‘hoades’ (Tindale 1974, p.213; Tindale 1987, pp.5-13), thereby geographically locating the Kaurna country and epithet ‘Kaurna’. William Wyatt first used the term Kaurna when describing the tribal associations of ‘Encounter Bay Bob’ (Wyatt 1879, p.24), but its origins may lie in ‘Bob’s association with the Kouandilla district of the Adelaide tribe’ (Wyatt 1879, p.23). Cowandilla is a contemporary derived nomenclature applied to a tract of the northern Adelaide plains. There appears to have been several districts within the larger ‘Adelaide tribe’ territory which spread from the Gawler River in the north to the Willunga basin in the sought flanked by the Mount Lofty escarpment to the east (Hemming 1990, p.126-142). When interviewed in 1927 Ivaritji claimed that she belonged to the ‘Dundagunya tribe’ which is probably a corruption of the contemporary name Tandanja that Tindale ascribed as occupying the area encompassed by the City of Adelaide (Gara 1990, p.64; Tindale 1987, p.10). The term Tandanya refers to a site south of Adelaide associated with the Red Kangaroo Dreaming, and Tindale claims the Tandanya clan of ‘Kaurna’ was named after the Red Kangaroo and that their main totem was the emu (Hemming 1990, p.137).

  • The Creation of the Torrens : a History of Adelaide's River to 1881
    The Creation of the Torrens: A History of Adelaide's River to 1881 by Sharyn Clarke This is submitted for the degree of Master of Arts in History School of Social Sciences University of Adelaide CONTENTS List of Paintings and Maps Introduction 1 Chapter One: Conceiving the Torrens t4 Chapter Two: Black and White 4t Chapter Three: The Destruction of the Torrens 76 Chapter Four: Meeting the Demand for Progress 105 Chapter Five: The Torrens Lake 130 Conclusion 157 Bilbiography ABSTRACT The River Torrens in Adelaide is a fragile watercourse with variable seasonal flows which was transformed in the nineteenth century into an artificial lake on a European scale. This thesis presents the reasons behind the changes which took place. The creation of the Torrens covers both physical changes and altering conceptions of the river from a society which, on the whole, desired a European river and acted as though the Torrens was one. The period of study ranges from the Kaurna people's life, which adapted around the river they called Karrawirraparri, to the damming of the river in 1881, Being the major river forthe city, the relatively higher population density meant huge environmental pressure, an inability to assess its limits lead to it being heavily polluted and degraded only a decade after white settlement. Distinct stages in the use of the river can be observed and a variety of both positive and negative responses towards it were recorded. By studying the interactions with, and attitudes towards, the River Torrens, and the changes it has undergone, we learn much about the societies that inhabited the river and their values towards a specific and crucial part of the natural environment.

  • Reconciliation Action Plan 2019 / 2020 Acknowledgement of Country
    Reconciliation Action Plan 2019 / 2020 Acknowledgement of country Welcome to The Wyatt Trust. As we come together today we pause to acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the land on which we meet, the Kaurna people, and to pay our respects to Elders past, present and emerging. This is the land of their dreaming. It is a land to which they have been connected for tens of thousands of years. The earth echoes with their stories of hope, loss, sorrow, resistance and daily life. We acknowledge this deep connection to the land and that the dispossession and treatment that occurred, still impacts on the lives of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People today. 2 Wyatt Trust Reconciliation Action Plan 2019 – 2020 | Designed by Jordan Lovegrove, Ngarrindjeri Contents Foreword 4 Our Work 6 Why are we Developing a RAP? 7 Wyatt’s Reconciliation Journey to Date 8 Our RAP Team 12 Partnerships and Current Reconciliation Activities in Place 13 Relationships 14 Respect 16 Opportunities 18 Governance and Tracking Progress 20 Our RAP Artwork 22 3 Foreword Inspired by the life and work of our founder, Dr William Wyatt, it is the vision and aspiration of The Wyatt Trust that all South Australians will have opportunities to participate in the community and live with dignity and hope. The evidence of Dr Wyatt’s life speaks of a life of compassionate service to others, particularly through the avenues of education, health and natural science. It also speaks to the deep regard Dr Wyatt had for individuals, his concern for Aboriginal people and his considered personal interactions.

  • Street Names: Humble Monuments
    1 LH0211-04 HUMBLE MONUMENTS: THE STREET NAMES OF WEST TORRENS 1 A study of the origin of street names is one way of accessing the history of an area. Streets may carry the names of some of the prominent early business or landowners in a district, and thus reflect the kinds of land use or industries that developed there over time. Street names can also pay tribute to individuals who lived or worked in area for many years and whose contribution to the life of the district might otherwise be overlooked. Street names may also tell of events in the wider world, in particular of wars and those, including local residents, who fought in them. This is not to deny that streets may carry names that are either bland or self- aggrandising: a study of West Torrens shows the propensity of some property developers for naming streets after themselves or their families. Nonetheless, though not as immediately engaging as statues, plaques and other monuments, street names are a simple, inexpensive and enduring way of remembering the past. LANDOWNERS Prominent early large-scale landowners are well represented in the street names of West Torrens. Sir John Morphett (1809-1892) established his 54- hectare (134-acre) estate Cummins at what is now Novar Gardens in 1841- 42. Although much of the property, excluding the house itself, was subdivided for residential purposes in the 1950s and 1960s, local street names have strong echoes of the Morphett family. Streets surrounding the Cummins home include Coach House Drive, Old Drive and New Drive (the Cummins driveway was diverted after the Holdfast Bay railway went through the southern part of the property in 1879).

  • 4 Monitoring the Use of Kaurna
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Sydney eScholarship 4 Monitoring the use of Kaurna Rob Amery1 Abstract Kaurna, the language of the Adelaide Plains in South Australia, was probably last spoken on an everyday basis in the 1860s. Fortunately, reasonable documentation has enabled its revival some 130 years later (see Amery 2000). The use of Kaurna in the public domain has now emerged as the dominant function of the language. Kaurna is used for a variety of naming purposes, the giving of speeches of Welcome to Country, acknowledgement of Kaurna land or for public performance. Requests for names, translations and information about the Kaurna language were initially dealt with on an ad hoc basis. The establishment of Kaurna Warra Pintyandi in 2002 allowed for these requests to be dealt with in a more orderly fashion. Currently six to ten requests are addressed in the regular monthly meetings. This article analyses how protocols and processes for dealing with the myriad of requests has evolved. A database has been established which is being mapped on Google Earth. This helps us to monitor and plan for the use of Kaurna in the public domain. There are lessons here for others starting out on the long journey of getting their language back. Kaurna was probably last spoken on an everyday basis in the 1860s, though the ‘last speaker’, Ivaritji, died in 1929.2 Fortunately the language was reasonably well documented by German missionaries, Clamor Schürmann and Christian Teichelmann, who arrived in Adelaide in October 1838.

  • Ama in South Australia 1879-1979 the South Australian Branch of the Australian Medical Association
    AMA IN SOUTH AUSTRALIA 1879-1979 THE SOUTH AUSTRALIAN BRANCH OF THE AUSTRALIAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION A CENTENARY HISTORY 1979 THE SOUTH AUSTRALIAN BRANCH OF THE AUSTRALIAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION A CENTENARY HISTORY 1979 Published under authority of the South Australian Branch of the Australian Medical Association. National Library of Australia ISBN 0 9598715 9 4 Printed by Specialty Printers Pty. Ltd., Adelaide, South Australia. iv PREFACE Published to commemorate the Centenary of the South Australian Branch of the Australian Medical Association, the purpose of this book is to record the main events and leading personalities associated with the foundation and development of the Branch throughout its first hundred years. Although every effort has been made in its compilation to ensure accuracy while maintaining a broad perspective, any attempt to include detailed lists of the members or persons involved on councils or committees has been purposely avoided. Those men principally concerned with the events described and the institutions they represented have generally emerged in the narrative because of the importance of their contributions and in many instances have warranted more detailed attention. This applies especially in respect to the Royal Adelaide Hospital, its foundation and progress, and to the late Sir Henry Simpson Newland, who stood astride the greater part of this century like a colossus, whose influence in the affairs of the Association was unparalleled and whose deeds in fostering its development were incomparable. The interested reader is referred for further information on these two subjects to the excellent books by Mr. J. Estcourt Hughes, published in 1967 and 1972. It would have been impossible to separate the progressive development of the Branch from the contributions made by individual members of the profession to the organization of health services in South Australia since the Province was established in 1836.
