  • Swan River Belonging: Social and Emotional Interactions with an Urban River in the South West of Western Australia
    Swan River Belonging: social and emotional interactions with an urban river in the South West of Western Australia Marie Seeman Bachelor of Arts (Hons) in Anthropology, University of Queensland This thesis is presented for the degree of Master of Arts at the University of Western Australia. School of Social and Cultural Studies Discipline of Anthropology and Sociology 2008 Marie Seeman 1 ABSTRACT In this thesis I explore concepts of belonging in relation to the Swan River of Perth, Western Australia. The primary focus of my research was on the various ways in which people expressed their social and emotional connections to a waterway often referred to as the 'soul of the city'. The people consulted derived from two main groups: a local inner city catchment group and a collection of artists. Drawing on literature such as Kay Milton's theories of emotion, culture and the environment to explain my ethnographic data, I show how and why people's interactions with the Swan River are motivated and enacted. This thesis demonstrates that human relationships with rivers such as the Swan are complicated by themes that include nostalgia, memory, aesthetics, space, proximity, ecological concerns and development issues. By drawing on a range of methods (participant observation, interviewing) and travel modes (walking, cycling), I found that current day practices were affected by historical decision making for both indigenous and non-indigenous groups. My research conveys the value of doing socio-cultural research on rivers in urban and in other contexts,

  • Swan River Cycling Tour
    Tour Information Swan River Cycling Tour Discover the beautiful Swan River foreshore on bicycles and have an amazing wildlife experience right in the heart of the city. This guided tour will take you on an enjoyable bike ride along purpose built bicycle paths on the banks of the Swan River. Along the way you will pass by the iconic Blue Boathouse, Eliza sculpture, Elizabeth Quay and Bell Towers. It is then onto Kangaroo Island, where you will find kangaroos roaming freely around the islands parklands, followed by a return journey via South Perth foreshore offering a range of excellent photo opportunities. Participants should have basic cycling skills to complete this 20 km journey over mostly flat terrain. Heirisson (Kangaroo) Island Heirisson Island, commonly known as Kangaroo Island is an important area for Noongar people. Once comprising of a small chain of islands and surrounding mud flats, this area is known as Matagarup, which refers to the place where the river is only leg deep. Where the island currently stands was a much smaller island known as Kakaroomup. This area was a main crossing point from one side of the river to the other, where Noongars could wade through the water. A statue of Whadjuk Noongar warrior Yagan was erected on the island in 1984 to recognise Yagan’s strong leadership and resistance fighting during the early years of the Swan River Colony. In 1998, five female western grey kangaroos were introduced onto the island, followed by a female with a male joey in 2000. Elizabeth Quay & Bell Tower Located on the north shore of Perth Water and centred on the landmark Swan Bells, Elizabeth Quay is named in honour of Queen Elizabeth II.
