Of the many themes and issues that emerged during the course of the three-year project, one of the most important concerned the role of SASMI/SAIT in the freld of higher education. The relationship that developed with the University of Adelaide influenced the direction of the School's glowth, the extent of its freedom and independence of action from the state government, and the part it played as a provider of education to the general community. In addition, the unparalleled cooperation with the University in the teaching of engineering and the applied sciences distinguished SASMVSAIT from other technical colleges/schools of mines in Australia. The development of the School was also affected by events occurring within the state-controlled education sector and the relationship with the Education Department. Another factor which marked out SASMI's distinctiveness, in Australian terms' was its maintenance of an extraordinary degree of autonomy and freedom from state interference' This freedom was partly assisted by, and also contributed to, the ongoing relationship with the University of Adelaide which aided SASMI's status as a tertiary institution. Ilowever, while emphasising its higher-level work in technical and technological education, SASMI successfully fulfrlled its self-appointed function as a 'People's University'. The Schoot did this, not by catering predominantly for the working classes, but by enabling a broad spectrum V of the Adelaide metropolitan population to have access to a variety of educational programmes, from certifrcates at the Adelaide Technical High School through single-subject technical and industrial classes to associate diplomas and degrees of the University of Adelaide. Before the large-scale expansion and diversification of higher education, SASMI played a key role as an educational provider in areas not covered by either the University of Adelaide or the Education Department. Although other such multi-purpose institutions existed, SASMI/SAIT's independent status and particularly its joint agreement with the University was not repeated elsewhere in Australia. VI STAIEME\ïT This thesis contains no material which has been accepted for the award of any other d,egree or diploma in any university and that, to the best of my knowledge and. belief, the thesis contains no material previously published or written by another person, except where due reference is made in the text of the thesis. Also I consent to the thesis being made available for photocopy and loan if applicable if accepted for the award of the degree. vil ACKNO\ryI,EDGEMN\TTS Numerous people have, both directly and indirectly, assisted in the completion of this thesis. I would like to begin by thanking my supervisor, Dr Wilfred Prest, who made the suggestion of developing a thesis from my research project in early 1986. His comments have been of particular help in the final stages of constructing and editing the manuscript. During the time in which I was involved in the research and production of the South Australian Institute of Technology's centenary history, 'The People's lJniversity', Mrs Helen Pearce, Mr Gordon Young and my husband, Dallas Simpson, provided considerable assistance and support. They also, along with Mr Paul McDonald, read and commented on the thesis. In this connection, I would also like to thank Mr Tony Denholm and Dr Roger Hainsworth of the University of Adelaide's History Department. In locating necessary material for the thesis, I would like to acknowledge the help of Ms Susan \Moodburn, the University of Adelaide's archivist and the staff of the David Murray Library at the South Australian Institute of Technology. In addition, I would particularly like to thank Ms Lin Martin, Manager, Information Systems at the Institute, who provided all the diagrams and charts from my raw dat/ for Appendix One. Her help was much appreciated. Finally the production of this thesis would not have been possible without the capable endeavours of Mrs Judi Hurley, who was responsible for the typing and word processing. Her patience and efñciency \ryere noteworthy. To conlude, I would like to issue a general vote of thanks to the South Australian Institute of Technology for its support of the 'The People's University'project from 1986 to 1989. viii INITRODUCTION The main purpose of this thesis is to chart the origins and development of an unusually long and successful relationship between two distinctly different ed.ucational bodies, the South Australian School of Mines and Industries/South Australian Institute of Technology (SASMI/SAIT) and the University of Adelaide. Based on the need to share scarce resources' the two institutions managed to maintain an effective joint agreement for eighty years. Such an arïangement \À¡as unparalleled in the history of Australian higher education; indeed, it was modelled more upon British experience than any domestic examples of cooperation. The j oint agreements between SASMI/SAIT and the University of Adelaide in engineering and the applied sciences showed that institutions could work together if they were compelled by external pressures and for the sake of mutual self-interest. Although regarded as separate, if not sometilnes antagonistic, educational institutions, they both served the needs of capitalist industry which exercised 'a major influence on the character and structure of the education system'.1 In addition, despite their apparently different educational missions, the University did not cater exclusively for the social elite and the school for the working classes. There was a significant middle-class component to the student body at both places. That is, their clientele was not mutually exclusive. This'overlap also applied to the respective curricula of the two bodies. At the bottom of the University's and at the apex of SASMI's professional work were the engineering and applied science courses which attracted sons of the bourgeoisie and the skilled working classes. Lacking adequate funds, however, both institutions could not separately offer facilities in these aïeas and they ryvere therefore forced to combine their resources. This sharing of resources also suited a state government unable and unwilling to support the development of two fully competitive institutions. While some competition between SASMI and the University could not be prevented, the joint agreement muted it and allowed them to avoid engaging in a destructive rivalry. When pressure to expand technological education in South Australia increased after

  • BRG 18 Preliminary Inventory ______
    _____________________________________________________________________ WOODS BAGOT ARCHITECTS PTY. LTD BRG 18 Preliminary Inventory __________________________________________________________________ Edward Woods (1837-1913) arrived in South Australia during 1860 and began working for the architect Edmund Wright. He helped design the GPO and Town Hall before starting out on his own in 1869; his first commission being St. Peter's Cathedral. By 1884, he had been appointed the colony's Architect-in-chief, and was an inaugural member of the S.A. Institute of Architects formed in 1886. Walter Bagot (1880-1963), a grandson of Henry Ayers and a student of St. Peter's College, became articled to Woods in 1899. He later studied architecture in London before entering into partnership with Woods in 1905. The following year, Bagot assisted with the formation of the first school of architecture in Adelaide, under the auspices of the School of Mines. Herbert Jory, James Irwin and Louis Laybourne-Smith joined the practice as partners in ensuing years; Laybourne-Smith (1880-1965) was also Head of the School of Architecture for 40 years and instrumental in its foundation. Woods Bagot have been a very influential in South Australia, with early emphasis on traditional styles and in ecclesiastical architecture. The firm designed Elder House, the Trustee Building, Bonython Hall, Barr Smith Library, the War Memorial, Carrick Hill and a number of churches in Adelaide and the country. Later commissions included John Martins, the Bank of NSW, CML and Da Costa Buildings, ANZ Bank and the Elizabeth City Centre, while more recent examples include Standard Chartered, Commonwealth Bank, Telecom and Mutual Health buildings.

Tasmania . 170 Chapter 1: Introduction In Australia there are four Catholic cathedrals designed in the Romanesque style (Canberra, Newcastle, Port Pirie and Geraldton) and one Anglican cathedral (Parramatta). These buildings are significant in their local communities, but the numbers of people who visit them each year are minuscule when compared with the numbers visiting Australia's most famous Romanesque building, the large Sydney retail complex known as the Queen Victoria Building. God and Mammon, and the Romanesque serves them both. Do those who come to pray in the cathedrals, and those who come to shop in the galleries of the QVB, take much notice of the architecture? Probably not, and yet the Romanesque is a style of considerable character, with a history stretching back to Antiquity. It was never extensively used in Australia, but there are nonetheless hundreds of buildings in the Romanesque style still standing in Australia's towns and cities. Perhaps it is time to start looking more closely at these buildings? They will not disappoint. The heyday of the Australian Romanesque occurred in the fifty years between 1890 and 1940, and it was largely a brick-based style. As it happens, those years also marked the zenith of craft brickwork in Australia, because it was only in the late nineteenth century that Australia began to produce high-quality, durable bricks in a wide range of colours.

Now that the twenty-first century is in its second decade, it is timely to attempt to gain a clearer historical perspective on the twentieth century and its buildings. The architectural practice HASSELL, which originated in South Australia in 1917, has established itself nationally and internationally and has received national peer recognition, as well as recognition in the published literature for its industrial architecture, its education, airport, court, sporting, commercial and performing arts buildings, and the well-known Adelaide Festival Centre. However, architectural historians have generally overlooked the practice’s broader role in the development of modern architecture until recently, with the acknowledgement of its post-war industrial work.1 This paper explores HASSELL’s contribution to the development of modern architecture in South Australia within the context of growth and development in the twentieth century. It examines the need for such studies in light of heritage considerations and presents an overview of the firm’s involvement in transforming the urban landscape in the city and suburbs of Adelaide. Examples are given of HASSELL’s mid-twentieth century industrial, educational and commercial buildings. This paper has been peer reviewed 56 FJHP – Volume 27 ‐2011 Figure 1: Adelaide’s urban landscape with the Festival Centre in the middle distance.

On retiring from my own professional career I wanted to make good the omission and give voice to his silence, so I have spent many hours tapping out the story of his life. Perhaps not wanting to suffer a similar if more appropriate exit, I wrote my own memoir. Kind people read them, making various suggestions. One friend told me everyone was writing schoolday stories; no one wanted to read about missionaries nowadays, but perhaps, a document on my years as an architect, and his in the mission field, might work if I identified the necessary unifying themes.

By the mid 1950s a new purpose-built town had been constructed in the Australian desert, named “Woomera”, with a population of 7,000 at its peak. No expense was spared in establishing the testing grounds, laboratories and infrastructure – which included a security cleared film laboratory and production facilities at Salisbury near Adelaide – to support the Anglo-Australian Joint Project’s research and experimentation.

Christine Garnaut, University of South Australia An ‘Innovation’ at the South Australian School of Mines and Industries: A Town Planning Course in the Architecture Department 1949-1955 The Architecture Department at the South Australian School of Mines and Industries offered Australia’s first tertiary course in town planning commencing 14 February 1949. Described by one Adelaide newspaper as an “innovation”, the postgraduate program was open to qualified architects, surveyors and engineers. Its introduction marked the achievement of a key ambition of the newly established Town Planning Institute of South Australia (TPISA) to provide a local opportunity for appropriately qualified individuals to train in planning. South Australian architects Gavin Walkley and Louis Laybourne Smith played a prominent part in developing the planning course and securing its delivery through the Architecture Department. This paper examines the background to its introduction including the particular circumstances of post-war expansion in South Australia that fuelled the demand for locally trained planners; the role of professional bodies, notably the South Australian Institute of Architects and the TPISA; and the contributions of Walkley and Laybourne Smith.
