  • WVCC Submission Draft Woden Town Centre Master Plan
    Submission Draft Master Plan for Woden Town Centre (2015) PO Box 280 Woden ACT 2606; e-mail: [email protected] www.wvcc.org.au Facebook: /WodenValleyCommunityCouncil Twitter: WVCC_Inc WVCC submission on the Draft Master Plan for Woden Town Centre (2015) The Woden Valley Community Council (WVCC) is a non-political, voluntary lobby group for the Woden Valley community. We focus on a wide range of issues such as planning, community facilities and infrastructure, parks and open space, public transport, parking, education, the environment and health. Community Councils are officially recognised by the ACT Government and are consulted by government on issues affecting our communities. History The WVCC was formed in 2001 as work begun on the Woden Town Master Plan which was subsequently released in 2004. The WVCC invested a significant amount of work into the development of the 2004 Master Plan, however it was not incorporated into the Territory plan and had ‘No statutory status’. After some ad hoc development proposals at various sites around the Woden town centre over the years that were not compliant with the 2004 Master Plan, we welcomed the announcement that a new master plan planning process would start. Consultation with the WVCC started in late 2012 with the Environment and Planning Directorate (EPD) presenting at several WVCC public meetings on this issue. WVCC appreciates the extensive community consultation that preceded the Draft Plan, the results of which have been helpfully consolidated and recorded in the Community Engagement Report Stage1) of October 2014. One issue of concern to the WVCC is that a community stakeholder workshop, similar to the meeting held with lessees and traders, was not conducted.

  • NON-STATUTORY BACKGROUND INFORMATION for UNIVERSITY of CANBERRA, STUDENT RESIDENCE GROUP 2
    NON-STATUTORY BACKGROUND INFORMATION For UNIVERSITY OF CANBERRA, STUDENT RESIDENCE GROUP 2 As of 14 July 2008 IDENTIFICATION OF THE PLACE • University of Canberra Student Residence Group 2, Block 1, Section 3, Suburb of Bruce, ACT. Within this block, the area under provisional registration includes a 6m curtiledge to the west and south of the Residence Group 2 block building, extending along the southern border to within 6m of the buildings of the Residence Group 1 block and incorporating the parklands between Residence blocks 1 and 2. The northern boundary of the registered area is marked by the southern edge of the footpath extending through to the main campus. HISTORY OF THE PLACE The University of Canberra Student Residence Group 2 was designed by John Andrews International in 1973-74, for the Canberra College of Advanced Education (CCAE), construction being completed in 1975.1 The CCAE became the University of Canberra in 1990. Colleges of Advanced Education were a new type of tertiary level education that emerged in Australia in the 1960s to provide vocational training and be equivalent to universities in stature although different in kind. By 1970 the Canberra College of Advanced Education was established with Dr Sam Richardson as the first Principal and a site in the Belconnen suburb of Bruce, dedicated on 28 October 1968 by the Prime Minister John Gorton. The development of the CCAE also coincided with the introduction of free tertiary education by the Federal Labor Government under Prime Minister Gough Whitlam 1972-1975 that also provided extensive funds for the initiative. Hassell, McConnell and Partners were engaged as architect planners by the National Capital Development Commission (NCDC) with Professor Gordon Stephenson of the University of Western Australia as master-planning adviser to the College.

  • Department of Tutorial Classes, Sydney University, 1919 to 1963 Darryl Dymock and Ann Kelly Griffith University
    24 Meeting diverse expectations Meeting diverse expectations: Department of Tutorial Classes, Sydney University, 1919 to 1963 Darryl Dymock and Ann Kelly Griffith University The University of Sydney has offered some form of organised adult education since the late 19th century. In 1914, that provision was formalised through the establishment of a Department of Tutorial Classes, the appointment of a Director, and a partnership with the Workers’ Educational Association (WEA). Right from that time, however, there was ambivalence and sometimes direct opposition to the role and sometimes to the existence of the department. As a result, successive directors of the department had to tread for extending the academy into the adult community, while also satisfying the demands of the WEA. This paper reviews the period of three directorships of the Department of Tutorial Classes, between 1919 and 1963, and argues that the liberal adult education approach adopted by the university from its earliest days was sustained over those 45 years mainly because ongoing disagreement within the university about the purpose of the department and the status of the director, as well as continuing external pressure from the WEA, ensured that the status quo prevailed, even when there were innovative adult education developments elsewhere, and opportunities for change presented themselves. Darryl Dymock and Ann Kelly 25 Introduction University adult education was introduced into Australia more than a century ago as a means of extending the knowledge and expertise of the academy to the general public, through means other than formal tertiary courses. All the sandstone universities and others such as adult education programs.

  • Remembering Edouard Borovansky and His Company 1939–1959
    REMEMBERING EDOUARD BOROVANSKY AND HIS COMPANY 1939–1959 Marie Ada Couper Submitted in total fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2018 School of Culture and Communication The University of Melbourne 1 ABSTRACT This project sets out to establish that Edouard Borovansky, an ex-Ballets Russes danseur/ teacher/choreographer/producer, was ‘the father of Australian ballet’. With the backing of J. C. Williamson’s Theatres Limited, he created and maintained a professional ballet company which performed in commercial theatre for almost twenty years. This was a business arrangement, and he received no revenue from either government or private sources. The longevity of the Borovansky Australian Ballet company, under the direction of one person, was a remarkable achievement that has never been officially recognised. The principal intention of this undertaking is to define Borovansky’s proper place in the theatrical history of Australia. Although technically not the first Australian professional ballet company, the Borovansky Australian Ballet outlasted all its rivals until its transformation into the Australian Ballet in the early 1960s, with Borovansky remaining the sole person in charge until his death in 1959. In Australian theatre the 1930s was dominated by variety shows and musical comedies, which had replaced the pantomimes of the 19th century although the annual Christmas pantomime remained on the calendar for many years. Cinemas (referred to as ‘picture theatres’) had all but replaced live theatre as mass entertainment. The extremely rare event of a ballet performance was considered an exotic art reserved for the upper classes. ‘Culture’ was a word dismissed by many Australians as undefinable and generally unattainable because of our colonial heritage, which had long been the focus of English attitudes.

  • Australian Historians Networking, 1914–1973 Geoffrey Bolton1
    10 Australian Historians Networking, 1914–1973 Geoffrey Bolton1 TheOxford English Dictionary defines networking as ‘the action or process of making use of a network of people for the exchange of information, etc., or for professional or other advantage’.2 Although recently prominent in management theory, the art of networking has been practised over many centuries in many societies, but its role in the Australian academic community has been little explored. This essay represents a preliminary excursion into the field, raising questions that more systematic researchers may follow in time, and drawing unashamedly on the resources of the Australian Dictionary of Biography. Beginning on the eve of the First World War, the essay is bounded by the formation of the Australian Historical Association in 1973, at which date the profession provided itself with 1 This essay is a lightly edited version of the paper prepared by Geoffrey Bolton for the ‘Workshop on Biographies and Autobiographies of Historians’ held at The Australian National University in July 2015. Professor Bolton had intended to make further revisions, which included adding some analysis of the social origins of the Australian historians who participated in the networks he had defined. In all essential respects, however, we believe that the essay as presented here would have met with his approval, and we are very grateful to Carol Bolton for giving permission to make the modest editorial changes that we have incorporated. For biographical information and insights, see Stuart Macintyre, Lenore Layman and Jenny Gregory, eds, A Historian for all Seasons: Essays for Geoffrey Bolton (Melbourne: Monash University Publishing, 2017).

  • Science Vision Science at Canberra College Is Specifically Designed to Develop a High Level of Skills and Knowledge to Transition Seamlessly Into University
    Science Vision Science at Canberra College is specifically designed to develop a high level of skills and knowledge to transition seamlessly into University. At Canberra College students are strongly encouraged to work independently and are given many experiences to develop essential skills in scientific method and the opportunity to apply knowledge in practical open-ended investigations that have real world application. The courses prepare students for the real world and to meet the recognised prerequisites for study in Science-based professions as diverse as Marine Biology, Engineering, Medicine and Astrophysics. What Subject Should I Choose? Students planning careers in science-based professions should seek early advice to ensure that they have an appropriate enrolment package. Students, who intend studying Science at University, should enrol in at least one T Science course such as Chemistry, Physics, Biology or Human Biology. You may enrol in up to three. Curriculum All science courses at Canberra College incorporate the Australian Curriculum for all students and provide robust training in preparation for university. Accredited students are catered for in Biology and Human Biology in combined classes with tertiary students. Assessment for accredited students is focussed more on real world applications but still provides sufficient skill for later tertiary studies. Extra-Curricular Program Students are actively encouraged to participate in our strong extra-curricular program. This program provides opportunities to open the world of science in ways not possible in college classes alone. These activities stimulate passion in their chosen area of interest. All major activities are credited as R units and provide points for students on their Senior Certificate.

  • Canberra College Students Qualifying for This Honour
    Principal’s Report - AUGUST 2015 I I welcome you all back to the business end of the year, particularly for our Year 12 students. I trust that all students returned rested and revitalised for the semester ahead. At our first week assembly I talked about the importance of feedback as it has two purposes; summative performance and also suggestions for improving performance. Last semester every student received a formal written summative report. This complements the feedback that students received throughout the term through the variety of learning and assessment activities as well as performance in the exams. Seeking and giving feedback also improves the performance of both teacher and student. Parent, teacher and student feedback along with performance data for the college collected over the past 4 years has now been analysed by an external panel as part of the review and validation process. The college validation report will be published before the end of term 3 and will contain a series of commendations and recommendations which will inform our planning for the next 4 years. I thank the students, staff and parents who contributed to the panels deliberations. In the next few weeks student, teachers and parents will be asked to complete the annual online school satisfaction survey. This is an important guide for us in our planning for whole college improvement. Please make the time complete this survey as we value your input and suggestions. Our staff and students continue to excel in a variety of areas. I acknowledge and congratulate; Jim Phillips who has won a promotion to Executive Teacher Science and PE at Lake Tuggeranong College.
