Coming Events Next Meeting - to Be Held on Tuesday the 9Th March 2021 at the Kensington Hotel Fellowship Night Rotary Club of St Peters - Weekly Bulletin – 20210302 – 2nd March 2021 PO Box 340, Marden, SA, 5070 Phone: 08 8411 0277 President – Bill Winslow Secretary – Pam Vaughton Email [email protected] Website https://portal.clubrunner.ca/stpeters Facebook https://www.facebook.com/StPetersRotary/ Weekly Meetings - The Rotary Club of St Peters meets on Tuesdays at 6:00 PM at the Kensington Hotel, 23 Regent St., Kensington, S.A. 5068. Visitors are welcome. Coming Events Next meeting - to be held on Tuesday the 9th March 2021 at the Kensington Hotel Fellowship Night Report of Meeting 3166 held on Tuesday 2nd March 2021 at the Kensington Hotel Sergeant John Bested called on Tony Camporeale to give the invocation and loyal toast. President Bill Winslow welcomed everyone to the meeting. Guests included James Stevens MP, Rotarian partners Rhonda Heilbronn, Betty Owler, Jim Williams and Jim Eccles. Also present were Kaye and Rickie Cooper from Broken Hill who are friends of Pam Vaughton and Jim Eccles. Guest Speaker Brian Kretschmer introduced James Stevens MP, Federal Member for Sturt. James commenced by saying how fortunate we have been to be in Australia during the COVID-19 epidemic and how Australians have been so willing to sacrifice their lifestyles in order to keep everyone safe. He acknowledged the work that Rotary have done with the Polio Plus project which has all but eliminated this disease from the world and he hopes that this will help to encourage Australians to get vaccinated for COVID-19, the use of which has proved very safe. James said Australia has had time to take a cautious approach, by delaying the availability of the vaccines until all the medical checks have been done. Rotary Opens Opportunities Page 1 of 5 Rotary Club of St Peters - Weekly Bulletin – 20210302 – 2nd March 2021 James then spoke about the importance of the submarine contract to South Australia which will employ up to 7,000 people and also the Royal Commission into Aged Care, which should result in improving the wellbeing of Australia’s increasing numbers of elderly people who require assistance. He said money needs to be spent on services rather than fees and administration. He said he was not impressed by the ‘bear pit’ in Canberra and the Federal Government Parliament ‘theatre’ which is used by some MPs to gain publicity or a nightly TV news grab. John George thanked James for addressing the meeting. President’s Remarks President Bill said the birthing kit assembly night had been a great success and he reminded members of the forthcoming visit to the clipper ship restoration project on 30th March. Visit to the Clipper restoration project - The City of Adelaide Rotary meeting - Tuesday 30th March - $15 to tour and then a meal at a local hotel afterwards. The Clipper Ship City of Adelaide is the world's oldest clipper ship. Built in Sunderland, England, and launched on 7 May 1864. City of Adelaide was built by William Pile, Hay and Co. for transporting passengers and goods between Britain and Australia. Between 1864 and 1887 the ship made 23 annual return voyages from London and Plymouth to Adelaide, South Australia. During this period she played an important part in the immigration of Australia. On the return voyages she carried passengers, wool, and copper from Adelaide and Port Augusta to London. https://www.cityofadelaide.org.au and the District Conference on the 16th to 18th April.

Rotary Opens Opportunities Page 2 of 5 Rotary Club of St Peters - Weekly Bulletin – 20210302 – 2nd March 2021 Romaine Dawson spoke about how our club is supporting the Trinity Gardens school in the Pedal Prix. Hi Romaine, I'm not sure what details you are looking for, but I can tell you there are 20 students from years 6/7 in the team and we train weekly. We will be racing on Friday 18 June in a 6 hour race 10am - 4pm (Pending covid testing on the track) at Victoria Park, Adelaide. Then on Saturday 31 July in a 12 hour race from 9am-9pm at The Bend, Tailem Bend and also on Saturday 11 September in a 6 hour race 10am-4pm at Sturt Reserve, Murray Bridge and Sunday 12 September in a 6 hour race 10am-4pm at Sturt Reserve, Murray Bridge. I hope this helps. The races are usually around a 3km or so track and we race in a category suited to Primary school. Thanks, Christine McCauley, (Trinity Gardens School) The Music Awards night should go ahead on the 26th May and that the club is willing to support participants in the RYLA and RYPEN programs. Phil Smith reported on the birthing kits assembly – HELD ON 25th FEBRUARY AT THE ROTARY SHED Last Thursday evening a group of 15 Rotarians & partners met at the Rotary Shed to undertake the assembly of 200 birthing kits. This event was planned for earlier in the Rotary year but had to be rescheduled when it was shut down due to Covid 19 concerns. On arrival at the shed participants had to wash their hands & glove up in preparation. The procedure for the birthing kit assembly was then explained by International Chair, Phil Smith. We used the production line method for our kit assembly. To enable the production to run smoothly two hundred birthing sheets had already been folded & inserted in their plastic bags. Also the strings had been cut & tied in groups of three. The procedure was quite straight forward with each of the components (soap, gloves, gauze, scalpel & string) being added along the assembly line. The package was then rolled up & inserted in the plastic bag with the birthing sheet. The air was squeezed from the bag & it was then sealed. The completed birthing kits were then packed into two boxes, each containing 100 birthing kits. It was a very tight squeeze but Arthur & Lucy were determined to get them in. The two boxes were then sealed ready for collection. The assembly of the kits took a little over an hour which we considered to be quite good. The assembly line method had worked well. It was lots of fun & judging by the chatter everyone really enjoyed the event. Hands on events are a great tonic for a Rotary Club. Following the assembly a light supper was enjoyed by all. Thanks are extended to the Rotarians & partners who assisted in making this event a great success. Phil Smith, Chair, International Committee.

We had a fantastic visit to the clipper ship “The City of Adelaide” with a very enjoyable lunch overlooking the water in Port Adelaide. If you missed it, you missed a great afternoon. Check out the pictures in this newsletter. We had a lovely party at Marty’s house for Australia Day. Ray Winterfield brought his guitar and we had a sing -a-long. We shared good food and fun. Another “no cost” function to members. We, again, had a really memorable Coral Sea celebration. This is so important to our association and the other associations which help us remember the connection with Australia and America. My only wish is that more of our members would take part and share this auspicious occasion with us. Check the newsletter pictures. We have said “Good-bye” to Nancy and Bill Schaff as they have moved to Hawaii. They always came to functions, gave good support for ideas and helped when needed. We will miss them but wish them all the best. Dr. Lage is still on her travels back and forth across the US. From the reports I have heard, she is enjoying herself very much.

  • Oznishambles As City of Adelaide Arrives up the Creek in South Australia
    OZNISHAMBLES AS CITY OF ADELAIDE ARRIVES UP THE CREEK IN SOUTH AUSTRALIA On 17 October 2013, HRH the Duke of Edinburgh was guest of honour at the Renaming Ceremony of the Historic composite, Iron and wood clipper ship City of Adelaide at the Old Royal Naval College in Greenwich, London [http://cityofadelaide.org.au/our-news/our-news-articles/107-2013-news/818- city-of-adelaide-greenwich-itinerary-16-20-october-2013.html ]. Two days later, under an open general export licence the tug Dutch Pioneer towed the clipper to Dordrecht in the Netherlands for an aggressive course of decontamination in order to meet Australian import regulations, before the ship finally left EU jurisdiction on 23rd November 2013. The export of the ship took place in spite of both the UK and Dutch Customs authorities being presented with a legal opinion, from Richard Harwood QC, that the export required the ship's new owners, Clipper Ship City of Adelaide Ltd (CSCoAL) to obtain an individual export licence. Campaigners in the UK archaeological and historic ships communities believe they have firm grounds for concluding that the Australian project is financially precarious. In order to secure federal funding to transport the ship CSCoAL appear to have signed up to an undertaking to make no further applications for Federal finance for the preservation of the ship. Nor are the Australian State or Australian heritage shipping experts supportive of the project. Further, it can be argued that viable British-based bids to take on the conservation and management of the ship were side-lined by the national authorities responsible for her protection.

  • The COROMANDEL and Others
    THE STORY OF THE 'COROMANDEL' IN PARTICULAR, 1834 3 MASTED SAILING SHIP. The COROMANDEL and others. In particular I have searched information regarding the 'Coromandel' ship, which, in 1836 was commissioned by the South Australian Company to transport emigrants to the new colony of South Australia and its soon to be established capital city of Adelaide. I have listed in these pages all details found, including a number of passengers. I have ascertained most who sailed in her, (but I certainly may have missed and/or misspelled some names). The ship sailed from St. Katherine's dock, London in 1836 arriving and disembarking the majority of her passengers at Holdfast Bay, Glenelg on January 17th 1837. Her journey was longer than planned as Captain William Chesser, her Master called in at Cape Town, Cape of Good Hope, South Africa and rested his many sick passengers back to good health with fresh fruit, vegetables and good water. Upon his return to Britain later in the year, he was called to task for the extended journey & brought before the Colonial office & the South Australian Company for interrogation. I have not, with any positive proof satisfied myself as to our "Coromandel's " final resting place, because the name was in popular use as a ship's name, and others so named have confused many people of her true journeys & destiny. She was definitely 662 tons, she was definitely built in 1834 in Quebec by George Black & Sons and she was a barque with sails set as 'ship' meaning all were squaremasted. There was a Coromandel ship that foundered in New Zealand, but I have not seen the description nor sketches of that ship.

  • The Creation of the Torrens : a History of Adelaide's River to 1881
    The Creation of the Torrens: A History of Adelaide's River to 1881 by Sharyn Clarke This is submitted for the degree of Master of Arts in History School of Social Sciences University of Adelaide CONTENTS List of Paintings and Maps Introduction 1 Chapter One: Conceiving the Torrens t4 Chapter Two: Black and White 4t Chapter Three: The Destruction of the Torrens 76 Chapter Four: Meeting the Demand for Progress 105 Chapter Five: The Torrens Lake 130 Conclusion 157 Bilbiography ABSTRACT The River Torrens in Adelaide is a fragile watercourse with variable seasonal flows which was transformed in the nineteenth century into an artificial lake on a European scale. This thesis presents the reasons behind the changes which took place. The creation of the Torrens covers both physical changes and altering conceptions of the river from a society which, on the whole, desired a European river and acted as though the Torrens was one. The period of study ranges from the Kaurna people's life, which adapted around the river they called Karrawirraparri, to the damming of the river in 1881, Being the major river forthe city, the relatively higher population density meant huge environmental pressure, an inability to assess its limits lead to it being heavily polluted and degraded only a decade after white settlement. Distinct stages in the use of the river can be observed and a variety of both positive and negative responses towards it were recorded. By studying the interactions with, and attitudes towards, the River Torrens, and the changes it has undergone, we learn much about the societies that inhabited the river and their values towards a specific and crucial part of the natural environment.
