Beverage List April 2019 In February, 1788 - the first grapes were planted at Sydney Cove from cuttings obtained from Rio de Janeiro and the Cape of Good Hope. These were later moved to Rose Hill, Parramatta. In 1789, on his voyage to Botany Bay, Governor Phillip wrote; In a climate so favourable, the cultivation of the vine may doubtless be carried to any degree of perfection; and should not other articles of commerce divert the attention of the settlers from this point, the wines of New South Wales may, perhaps, hereafter be sought with avidity, and become an indispensable part of the luxury of European tables. The first known record of successful European grape production in Australia dates from 1791, when Captain Watkin Tench wrote: On 24th January two bunches of grapes were cut in the Governor's garden from cuttings of vines brought three years before from the Cape of Good Hope. The Governor's garden was located in what is now Sydney's Macquarie Street, one of the busiest streets in the city. Shortly after, John Macarthur established the earliest commercial vineyard in the coastal region around Sydney at 'Camden Park' Gregory Blaxland arrived in New South Wales in 1806 and bought Brush Farm at Ermington on the Parramatta River. He had brought vines from the Cape of Good Hope and the species he planted seemed to be resistant to blight. By 1816 he was making commercial quantities of wine, taking a sample to London in 1822 where it was awarded a silver medal, the first of Australia’s wine exports. The wine Blaxland exported had 10 per cent of French brandy added to allow it to endure the voyage to England. In 1928 another of Blaxland’s wines received a gold medal from the same Society. Both viticulture and viniculture has come a long way since 1788. Our wine list at Parliament House reflects the history and diversity that regional New South Wales has to offer. We raise a glass to the pioneers who helped establish NSW as a premier region for winemaking in Australia.

  • Colonial Signals of Port Jackson
    Colonial Signals of Port Jackson by Ralph Kelly Abstract This lecture is about the role signal flags played in the early colonial life of Sydney. I will look at some remarkable hand painted engraved plates from the 1830s and the information they have preserved as to the signals used in Sydney Harbour. Vexillological attention has usually focused on flags as a form of iden - tity for nations and entities or symbol for a belief or idea, but flags are also used to convey information. When we have turned our attention to signal flags, the focus has been on ship to ship signals 1, but the focus of this paper will be on shore to shore harbour signals and the unique system that developed in early Sydney to provide information on shipping arrivals in the port. These flags played a vital role in the life and commerce of the colony from its foundation until the early 20th Century. The Nicholson Chart The New South Wales Calendar and General Post Office Directory 1832 included infor - mation on the Flagstaff Signals in Sydney, including a coloured hand-painted en - graved chart of the Code of Signals for the Colony. 2 This chart was prepared by John 3 Figure 1. naval signals 1 Nicholson, Harbour Master for Sydney’s Port Jackson. It has come to be known as the Nicholson Chart and is one of the foundation docu - ments of Australian vexillology. 4 The primary significance of the chart to vexillologists has been that this is the earliest known illustration of what was described on the chart as the N.S.W.

  • Black and White Children in Welfare in New South Wales and Tasmania, 1880-1940
    ‘Such a Longing’ Black and white children in welfare in New South Wales and Tasmania, 1880-1940 Naomi Parry PhD August 2007 THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES Thesis/Dissertation Sheet Surname or Family name: Parry First name: Naomi Abbreviation for degree as given in the University calendar: PhD School: History Faculty: Arts and Social Sciences Title: ‘Such a longing’: Black and white children in welfare in New South Wales and Tasmania, 1880-1940 Abstract 350 words maximum: When the Human Rights and Equal Opportunities Commission tabled Bringing them home, its report into the separation of indigenous children from their families, it was criticised for failing to consider Indigenous child welfare within the context of contemporary standards. Non-Indigenous people who had experienced out-of-home care also questioned why their stories were not recognised. This thesis addresses those concerns, examining the origins and history of the welfare systems of NSW and Tasmania between 1880 and 1940. Tasmania, which had no specific policies on race or Indigenous children, provides fruitful ground for comparison with NSW, which had separate welfare systems for children defined as Indigenous and non-Indigenous. This thesis draws on the records of these systems to examine the gaps between ideology and policy and practice. The development of welfare systems was uneven, but there are clear trends. In the years 1880 to 1940 non-Indigenous welfare systems placed their faith in boarding-out (fostering) as the most humane method of caring for neglected and destitute children, although institutions and juvenile apprenticeship were never supplanted by fostering. Concepts of child welfare shifted from charity to welfare; that is, from simple removal to social interventions that would assist children's reform.

  • Malcolm Pearse, 'Australia's Early Managers'
    AUSTRALIA’S EARLY MANAGERS Malcolm Pearse1 Macquarie University Abstract The origins of managers and management have been studied comprehensively in Great Britain, Europe and the United States of America, but not in Australia. Most scholars have looked at Australia’s history in the twentieth century to inform the literature on the modern enterprise, big business and management, but the role of the manager or agent was established in many businesses by the 1830s. There were salaried managers in Australia as early as 1799, appointed to oversee farms. The appointment of managers in Australia from as early as 1799 continued the practice of British institutions in some industries. But in other contexts, management practice departed from British practice, demonstrating largely adaptive, rather than repetitive features. As the wool industry dominated the economy, the range of industries grew and managers or agents were appointed to businesses such as public companies, which were formed from at least 1824. During the 1830s, there were managers of theatres, hotels, merchant houses, and in whaling, cattle, sheep, shipping and banking activities. As banking expanded during the 1830s and 1840s, so did the number of managers. Bank managers were appointed both with the entry of new banks and with branch expansion. As banks expanded their branch network, the number of managers increased. The establishment of branches continued another British institution in the colonial context and further reinforced the manager’s role. The rise of the salaried manager in Australia was harnessed to the rise of the public company and began as early as the 1840s but was more evident during the second half of the nineteenth century, when public companies grew bigger and prominent in strategically important industries such as grazing, sugar, water, engineering, electricity, banking, insurance and shipping, river and stage coach transport.

I would ask you to keep in mind that this Academy is a place of learning. Please be considerate of the other occupants of the building who may require a quiet environment for their after hours study. ~h/~ JUNE HEINRICH PRINCIPAL THE HISTORY OF BRUSH FARM Brush Farm Estate had its beginnings in 1800, when William Cox, then Paymaster for the New South Wales Corps, purchased nine farms in the area, as well as other farms in an area known as Dundas. He built his house around the site of the present Dundas Town Hall. He soon established Brush Farm as one of the leading agricultural estates. D' Arcy Wentworth bought the property in 1804/5 who in turn sold it to Gregory Blaxland in 1807, who used it as a staging post on his expedition across the Blue Mountains with William Wentworth and William Lawson in 1813. Blaxland decided to build a new house in about 1820 on the highest part of the farm. The historic house situated within the Academy grounds is that house and is' one of Austalia'soldest houses. Blaxland kept the property until 1831 when he sold it to his son-in­ law, Thomas Forster, whose son, William, took over owneJship in 1844.

  • The Administration of the Juvenile Correction System Reverted to the Institutional Practices More Characteristic of the Middle of the Nineteenth Century
    1 . ‘UNENLIGHTENED EFFICIENCY’: THE ADMINISTRATION OF THE JUVENILE CORRECTION SYSTEM IN NEW SOUTH WALES 1905-1988 Thesis for Doctorate of Philosophy University of Sydney Peter Quinn, January, 2004 2 Certification I certify that this work has not been submitted for a degree to any other university or institution and, to the best of my knowledge and belief, contains no material previously published or written by any other person, except where due reference has been made in the text. Peter Quinn January, 2004. 3 ABSTRACT This work traces the history of the juvenile correction system in twentieth century New South Wales, focusing on the evolution of major reforms aimed at curbing delinquency. The study begins in 1905 with the Neglected Children and Juvenile Offenders Act. It concludes in 1988, when another set of significant reforms, designed to deal with perceived inadequacies of the established system, commenced. The main focus of the thesis is the government system of corrections. Although there was an active non - government correction system, this sector was increasingly absorbed by the larger public sphere. The principal argument is that, although there were sporadic periods during which changes to the system were made, its progress through most of the twentieth century was characterised by an underlying attitude which regarded the boys and girls it dealt with, particularly those committed to institutions, as belonging to an inferior, delinquent class. As such, they were treated as the progeny of a criminal class destined for the most part to remain part of that class. This idea of a delinquent class coloured all aspects of the way juveniles were treated, specifically lack of resources, the dominance of economic considerations over the welfare of children, excessive regimentation, harsh discipline and illegal punishments.

This report follows the release of Part 1 in May 2013, which identifi ed the preferred fi rst stage of the Network comprising two lines from Parramatta; one to Castle Hill and the other to Macquarie Park. This is the start of a Light Rail Network that will grow and evolve to meet the future economic and social needs of Western Sydney, with future lines to Bankstown and Rhodes via Sydney Olympic Park already identifi ed. Part 2 of Council’s study further investigated the fi rst stage lines in terms of transport and land use. We undertook an initial engineering feasibility and identifi ed preferred alignment and stops as well as refi ned the cost. We also investigated the land use change potential to accommodate population and employment growth that could be anticipated as consequence of the Network.
