  • Beaumont House
    Promoting the enjoyment, knowledge and benefits of gardens and gardening Open Gardens South Australia Welcomes you to Beaumont House Sunday 28th March, 2021 History Beaumont House was originally built for the first Anglican Bishop of Adelaide, Augustus Short, and his family who lived there from 1851 until they moved to Bishop’s Court in 1857. He named it Claremont and chose the location because of the views and cooler climate. His early plan shows garden to the west, north and east of the house. He is recorded as planting fruit trees and olives (supplied by Davenport), and early sketches show shrubs and succulents under native trees bordering a driveway. In 1857, Sir Samuel [as he became] and Lady Davenport moved into the house, renamed ‘Beaumont House’. A keen horticulturalist, he was a friend of George Francis and Richard Schomburgk, the first two directors of the Botanic Gardens of Adelaide, and also of Ferdinand von Mueller, who later became Director of the Melbourne Botanic Gardens. He served on the Board of the Botanic Gardens from 1864-78. The Davenports were farmers and their property extended from high in the hills down to Beaumont Common. Trees planted by them exist in the garden today, including Aleppo, stone and pencil pines, almonds, figs and pears, and palms (cotton, Canary date and European fan), the Wigandia and olives. No records remain of what flowers they planted, but in their earlier garden at Macclesfield, honeysuckle, roses, broom, violets, mignonette, foxgloves, catchfly and geraniums grew. Davenport was an ardent promoter of agriculture and new industries in South Australia.

  • The Construction of the Geography
    THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE GEOGRAPHY CURRICULUM AS A SUBJECT FOR THE SENIOR YEARS OF STATE SECONDARY SCHOOLING IN WESTERN AUSTRALIA: A HISTORICAL ANALYSIS OF DEVELOPMENTS FROM 1917 to 1997 By WILLIAM JOHN MORTIMER Bachelor of Applied Science, Bachelor of Education, Master of Education Administration, Doctor of Education A thesis presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The University of Western Australia Graduate School of Education 2020 ABSTRACT This thesis provides the first comprehensive study of senior secondary school geography curricula in Western Australia for the period 1917-1997. It was conducted in relation to four sub-periods: 1917-1944, 1945-1957, 1958-1974 and 1975-1997. The focus was on three main research questions: what were the background developments that influenced the process of constructing what came to be the dominant approach to the subject?; what was the construction of the subject in the sense of ‘construction as product’, particularly in terms of the stated aims, content and assessment approaches?; what were the issues, conflicts and compromises that arose following the introduction of the subject for senior secondary schooling in each sub-period? Further, the emphasis was on the ‘preactive curriculum’ as represented in the officially prescribed syllabi in order to increase understanding of the influences and interests functioning at that level. The results of the study are considered in relation to three hypotheses. The first hypothesis states that “curricula, both ‘whole curricula’ and ‘subject specific curricula’ including in relation to geography in Western Australia, have been influenced by international trends, nation-wide developments and State developments”. It was deemed to be largely upheld though not totally, for senior secondary school geography in the State for the overall period studied.
