  • 75Th ANNIVERSARY 2020
    75th ANNIVERSARY 2020 What better time is there to note the history of one of Lane Cove’s icons than a 75th Anniversary? 2020 marks that celebratory year for Lane Cove Music. On 26th March 1946 Reverend Louis Blanchard, Minister of St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church Longueville, was inspired to call a meeting to form a music club with the object of providing first class classical and semi-classical music and entertainment for church members and friends. Initial meetings were held at the Manse, the Vestry and the Church Hall. The idea was so well received that a group was formed as an organisation of St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church Longueville and named the “Longueville-Northwood Music Club” with a constitution being drawn up and adopted on 22nd May 1946. Until the end of 1959 concerts were held in the Masonic Hall at 231 Longueville Road, now the Shinnyo Australia Buddhist Temple. Rev. Louis Blanchard 1973 The current name Lane Cove Music dates from 2007, the abbreviated version being in step with the trend set by other music clubs, omission of ‘club’ being deemed to sound less exclusive at a time when all clubs were seeking a membership boost. For expediency the capitals ‘LCM’ or words ‘the club’ will be used henceforth in this text. At that initial meeting in March 1946 it was agreed there would be five concerts held in the first year – subscriptions to be one guinea, being one pound one shilling (£1/1- in pre 1966 currency) with a fee of four shillings for visitors. By the third meeting the Executive Committee had been elected with Rev.

Much of of sub-tidal macrophytes in Sydney Harbour using this wealth can directly or indirectly attributed to aerial photographs. Mangroves and saltmarsh are estuarine flora. In estuaries, the main vegetation restricted to intertidal regions in Lane Cove River, types are seagrasses (worth AUS$19,000 ha.yr−1), Middle Harbour, and Parramatta River. saltmarsh and mangroves (AUS$9,990 ha.yr−1 combined; Costanza et al., 1998)).

Seagrasses are the only estuarine plants that can live totally submerged in oceanic water. While not truly grasses (i.e. not in the family Poceae), they are angiosperms (flowering plants). The term seagrass itself refers to a taxonomic grouping with much convergent morphology (Connell and Gillanders, 2007). Like most angiosperms, seagrass roots provide a mechanism for nutrient uptake. Unlike many terrestrial plants, however, a complex rhizome system linking individual shoots across several square km provides much of the structural support needed in high energy submerged environments.

    THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT LOF A NE COVE BY LYNNE McLOUGHLIN WITH PLANT SURVEYS BY VAN KLAPHAKE The Natural Environment of Lane Cove ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I wish to thank those people who have so willingly assisted in assembling materials and information for various parts of this book detailing the natural environment of Lane Cove. In particular, I wish to thank Susan Butler, Lane Cove Council Bushland Management Officer, for her great support and encouragement for the project from its inception as environmental education material, through the production of the Teachers’ Guide, to its present form. Susan also produced all the maps, assisted with illustrative material, co-ordinated the production of the listings for the appendices and acted as editor for both the Teachers’ Guide and this publication. Special thanks are due to Van Klaphake who surveyed, identified and listed the plant species of our bushland reserves, assisted by Sandy Coe. Van also drafted the vegetation maps, contributed to the birds and the animals listings and assisted with the mushrooms listing. Thanks also to Jon Kingston and Simon Pitcher for their painstaking work in preparing the listings for the extensive appendices. Assistance was also much appreciated from Sheila Walkerden, for information and listings on birds, John Diversi, for listings and information on reptiles and Dennis Ormsby, for material on mammals.
