G. Waterhouse, o. B. E. Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II graciously conferred upon our President the high honour of Companion of the Most Distinguished Order of Saint Michael and Saint George, in recognition of his service to horticulture. Our picture, courtesy of The Sydney Morning Herald, shows Lady Cutler (wife of the Governor of New South Wales) and the Professor's good friend Mrs Donald Woodrow, congratulating him after the ceremony at Government House, Sydney, on September 10. This issue of the Journal contains a loose Voting Form for the biennial election of Directors. May I urge American and Australian members in particular (the regions where a ballot has become necessary) to exercise his or her vote immediately, and to airmail the completed form to the Hon. Secretary as soon as possible. The 1977 International Camellia Society Congress will be held at Nantes, France, in conjunction with the International Floralies. As we go to press, I am informed that groups from Great Britain, the Channel Islands, the United States, Italy and Japan will be going to Nantes, whilst I am delighted to report that at least 50 Australian camellians will attend. Let us hope that members from every corner of the globe will make a great effort to be in Nantes on May 16, 17 and 18, so that international togetherness of the most joyous kind - our love of camellias - will create many lifelong friendships. 4 A Message to Members FROM THE PRESIDENT By the time this Journal is in your hands, another year will have elapsed, and you will have elected your President, three Vice-Presidents, and a number of the Regional Directors for 1977 and 1978. I felt highly honoured when Mr Harold Hillier nominated me for a further term as President. I only hope that I shall be able to justify his confidence and goodwill. We now have three Vice-Presidents, each from a different region, and as only three have been nominated and have accepted nomination, they can be declared elected.

  • Sir John Northcott
    30 Sir John Northcott (1 August 1946 – 31 July 1957) Chris Cunneen The 30th representative of the Crown in New South Wales, John North- cott, was the first Australian to be State or colonial Governor.1 It was only after extraordinary pressure from the Premier William McKell that King George VI, advised by the British Government, agreed to the selection. Birth and military career John Northcott was born on 24 March 1890 at Creswick, Victoria, eldest son of English-born parents: his father, also named John, owned a general store in the nearby town of Dean, his mother was Elizabeth, née Reynolds. Young John was the eldest of four sons and one daughter. Educated at Dean State School and Grenville College, Ballarat, he was a keen member of the school cadets. He was also an enthusiastic horse rider, so in 1908 he enlisted in the Ninth Light Horse Regiment, a militia unit. Deciding on a full time career in the Army he passed the entry examinations and in 1912 joined the Permanent Military Forces as a Lieu- tenant on the Administrative and Instructional Staff. He was posted to Tasmania. On the outbreak of World War I he transferred to the Aust- ralian Imperial Force and in August 1914 was appointed Adjutant of the 12th Battalion, based at Anglesea Barracks, Hobart.2 Northcott’s service record at this time described the 24 year old as five feet eight and a half inches tall, with a fair complexion and blue eyes. His Battalion left for Egypt in October 1914. On Sunday, 25 April 1915, Northcott was one of the first to land at Anzac Cove, Gallipoli.

  • Comprehensive Secondary Schools in Australia 137
    136 Education Researchand Perspectives, Vol. 34, No.1, 2007 Comprehensive SecondarySchools in Australia: a View trom Newcastle, New South Wales AlanBarcan Conjoint Fellow, School ofEducation, University ofNewcastle, NSW Abstract The two most significant events in government secondary schools in Australia between the end ifthe Second World War in 1945 and the cultural revolution ifthe late 1960s and early 1970s were the vast expansion in enrolments and the curricular changes entailed, in part, by these. Between 1953 and 1964four ifthe six states introduced comprehensive high schools. In the ten years after 1974 the other two states folloioed suit. In all states the internal structure if comprehensive schools also changed. The examination system, the curriculum, and the provision for higher ability students all came under public scrutiny. This epoch closed with the reforms if 1989-93. Thereafter, comprehensive schools existed in name but lost their dominance and changed their characteryet agazn. The following analysis focuses particularly on New South Wales. After discussing the concept ifcomprehensive secondary schools, it surveys the long­ established system ifsecondaryschooling to which the early comprehensive high schools offered an alternative. Theirprogress in the six states between 1953 and 1984, is then examined. The cultural transformation ifthe late 1960s and early 1970s is seen as reshaping the context and nature ifcomprehensive schooling. The final section examines in some detail the comprehensive system as it operated in Newcastle, New South Wales, from 1953 onwards and the conversion in the 1970s ifthe specialisedsecondaryschools in the inner city into comprehensives. The study closes with a general survey ifthe reforms ifthe late 1980s and early 1990s which relegated comprehensive high schools to a relatively minorposition in New South Wales secondaryeducation.

There is survive in these conditions. a need for low-maintenance perennial plantings that can tolerate The thesis looks into the difference between traditional the dry conditions in urban areas. Especially areas close to horticultural perennial plantings and designed plant communities, traffic, such as the middle of roundabouts and traffic islands need such as the German mixed plantings. easily manageable vegetation and they are therefore normally covered in grass or mass plantings of shrubs.
