The problems facing the Trust with regard to classification are associated with change, in regard to a more comprehensive understanding of heritage, more rigorous assessment expectations, establishment of other lists since the first Trust register was published, and a general reduction in the available volunteer work force since the 1970s and 1980s. The report is divided into three parts containing research, issues discussion and a draft policy on classification. Part A The research has been limited to the Australian National Trusts and State, Terri­ tory and Commonwealth legislative procedures. Other Registers in New South Wales have been considered. Part B Issues are discussed under the following four sub-headings (i) Should the Trust continue its classification role?, (ii) What should the Trust classify?, (iii) Criteria for classification by the Trust, and (iv) Process for classification by the Trust. Each issue is followed by recommendations leading towards a policy statement. Part C The draft model policy on classification is intended to be a stand alone docu­ ment. The Report concludes that the Trust should maintain its Register and continue to identify and assess heritage in New South Wales, as it is the only independent and comprehen­ sive state based heritage register in New South Wales. The Trust should also retain its existing committee structure, and establish work programs which seek to address heri­ tage places otherwise under-represented in the Trust Register, and those places not clearly the responsibility of a government authority. These places include Migrant, post­ contact Aboriginal and twentieth century heritage places. Specific attention should also be given to identifying the heritage of specific geographical areas of New South Wales and typological studies. Work programs will need to address the availability of the volunteer work force. In striving for consistency and minimising duplication of heritage resources, the Trust should use the State Heritage Inventory (SHI) Historical Themes and Evaluation Criteria, when formally adopted by the Minister of Urban Affairs and Planning. Should the State Heritage Inventory be established as an effective State Government managed heritage list, the question of the Trust classification role should be revisited. Appendices form an important part of the Report. Examples included in Parts A and B may require reference to the appendices. Graduate Project - Catherine Macarthur 1995 UNSW National Trust of Australia (NSW) Classification and Criteria INTRODUCTION 2 INTRODUCTION The Report investigates the role, criteria and process for classification of heritage items for placing on the National Trust of Australia (NSW) Register. The problems facing the Trust with regard to classification are associated with change, in regard to a more comprehensive understanding of heritage, more rigorous assessment expectations, establishment of other lists since the first Trust register was published, and a general reduction in the available volunteer work force since the 1970s and 1980s. Heritage Registers and Legislative Change It has been found that identification of heritage items and maintaining of a heritage regis­ ter or list, is currently undertaken by a number of government and non-government bodies. The National Trust of Australia (NSW) was the first heritage register in Australia being first published in 1967. The introduction of Federal and State heritage legislation in 1975 and 1977 respectively, and the subsequent New South Wales Heritage System Review in 1992 has resulted in greatly changed responsibilities for heritage management in New South Wales. Community and professional bodies have also established their own heritage lists. With the exception of the National Trust of Australia (South Australia), all National Trusts in Australia continue to actively maintain a register. A number of State and Territories governments have also recently established heritage registers. The New South Wales Department of Urban Affairs and Planning has stated that a State Heritage Inventory will be established, however it is not intended to be a register necessarily affording statutory protection. Part A outlines the nature of the above lists and relevant assessment criteria used. Until such time as the State Heritage Inventory is properly established and purpose clearly defined, the New South Wales Trust Register should be actively maintained as it is the only State based independent heritage register in New South Wales. Even when operational the State Heritage Inventory will be subject to political change in regard to management and funding, a fact which further supports the existence of an independent classification role for the New South Wales Trust. Part B discusses the reasons for the National Trust of Australia (NSW) continuing to maintain a Register and other related issues. Under Represented Heritage A number of sectors of heritage in New South Wales are identified in this report as being under represented in the Trust register. Of these, post-contact Aboriginal sites, migrant heritage places, and twentieth century places were highlighted as categories requiring greater Trust recognition. Typological heritage studies resulting in classifications will also continue to be a highly relevant activity for the Trust. Heritage Assessment Criteria Assessment Criteria for assessing heritage significance have been developed in detail at a State, Territory and National level over the past five years. Recently introduced heritage legislation in most States and Territories in Australia has generally incorporated assess­ ment criteria based on recent criteria development, and consequently a number of National Trusts have adopted the same or similar criteria for compatibility and con­ sistency. In many cases the State or Territory assessment criteria are a modified version of the assessment criteria established by the Australian Heritage Commission for the Graduate Project - Catherine Macarthur 1995 UNSW National Trust of Australia (NSW) Classification and Criteria INTRODUCTION 3 Register of the National Estate. In New South Wales the Heritage Act 1977 New South Wales was written before recent criteria development, and as such does not include

  • REDFERN PARK Tree Management Plan
    REDFERN PARK Tree Management Plan Final - Adopted 23 October 2006 REDFERN PARK DRAFT TREE MANAGEMENT PLAN EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Redfern Park Tree Management Plan (TMP) was prepared as part of a suite of Tree Management Plans for the City of Sydney’s parks. The TMP forms part of the Redfern Park Plan of Management and informs the Masterplan. A major focus of the TMP is to implement a program of tree removal and replacements that will reinforce the strategies recommended in the 2006 Masterplan. The Tree Management Plan includes a survey of all of the existing trees within the Park (124 trees) and contains relevant heritage, environmental and arboricultural data relating to individual trees as well as distinct groups of trees such as the street tree planting around Redfern Oval. A Safe Useful Life Expectancy (SULE) analysis of the tree population was prepared. From this assessment the following removal and replacement strategies were recommended: • Staged removal and replacement of the boundary planting of Fig trees surrounding Redfern Park, over the next twenty years; • Twenty seven (27) trees to be removed within the Park over the next fi ve (5) years; • Eleven (11) of these trees to be removed from within the Park during the Redfern Oval upgrade; • Paperbarks in Elizabeth Street to be retained until a row of advanced Fig trees are planted within the boundary of Redfern Oval; • Removal of the street trees in Chalmers Street during the Redfern Oval upgrade; and • Removal of selected trees on Phillip Street during the Redfern Oval upgrade; The Tree Management Plan recommends a series of improved techniques to ensure best practice tree monitoring and arboricultural maintenance.

  • History on a Bus
    History on a Bus USING SOCIODRAMA TO ADDRESS RACISM AND RECONCILIATION HELEN KEARINS ABSTRACT In Sydney’s Redfern Park on the 10th of December 1992, the launch of the International Year of Indigenous People, the then Australian Prime Minister Paul Keating delivered a ground breaking speech that gave great hope to people working for reconciliation with Aboriginal Australians. One of those inspired to continue this work, Helen Kearins developed a workshop that assists participants to own racism and move beyond it towards genuine reconciliation with Aboriginal people. In this article, adapted from her 2011 AANZPA Accreditation thesis, she demonstrates the efficacy of sociodrama in this work. KEY WORDS Aboriginal Australians, racism, reconciliation, sociodrama, warm up, White Australians Setting the Scene On my way to or from work in Sydney, I often drive past Redfern Park. Many Australians associate the suburb of Redfern with a stereotype of Aboriginal poverty and dysfunction. Apart from the fact that the stereotype is grossly inaccurate, I have a very different association with Redfern Park. It was here on the 10th December 1992 that Prime Minister Paul Keating gave a speech, often referred to now as the Redfern Park Speech, to launch the 1993 International Year of the World’s Indigenous People. I was there. The speech was significant because it was the first time that an Australian prime minister had acknowledged that, “...the problem starts with us non-Aboriginal Australians”. He went on to say, “It begins I think with an act of recognition” and to name the elements in need of recognition. He emphasised the opportunity provided by this international year to address the injustices suffered by indigenous Australians and to continue working towards reconciliation.
