During your independent investigation around the Sanctuary look for ways that the Wurundjeri people lived on country and record these observations in the box below.

Identify and explain how did indigenous people impact upon their environment? Indigenous people changed the landscape using fire stick farming which also assisted hunting Aboriginal people used their knowledge of the seasons to optimise hunting, gathering, eel farming and more Aboriginal people used organic local materials to create tools to assist them with hunting and gathering their food i.e. eel traps, woven grass baskets, rock fish traps etc. They only ever took what they needed from the land and had a deep respect and spiritual connection to the land and their surroundings. 2. How are humans impacting on natural resources in today’s society? How does this affect wildlife? When the land is disrespected, damaged or destroyed, this can have real impact on the wellbeing of people, plants and animals. European settlers and modern day humans have caused land degradation by: •Introducing poor farming practices causing land degradation •Introducing noxious weeds •Changing water flow courses and draining wetlands •Introducing feral animals •Destroying habitat through urbanization, logging and farming practices 3.

  • Corroboree Moderne
    Corrected draft May 2004 CORROBOREE MODERNE ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dressed in a brown wool bodystocking specially made by Jantzen and brown face paint, an American dancer, Beth Dean played the young boy initiate in the ballet CORROBOREE at a Gala performance before Queen Elizabeth 11 and Prince Phillip on Feb 4 1954 . “On stage she seems to exude some of the primitive passion of the savage whose rites she presents” (1a) “If appropriations do have a general character, it is surely that of unstable duality. In some proportion, they always combine taking and acknowledgment, appropriation and homage, a critique of colonial exclusions, and collusion in imbalanced exchange. What the problem demands is therefore not an endorsement or rejection of primitivism in principle, but an exploration of how particular works were motivated and assessed.” (1) CORROBOREE "announced its modernity as loudly as its Australian origins…all around the world" (2) 1: (BE ABORIGINAL !) (3) - DANCE A CORROBOREE! The 1950s in the Northern Territory represents simultaneously the high point of corroboree and its vanishing point. At the very moment one of the most significant cultural exchanges of the decade was registered in Australian Society at large, the term corroboree became increasingly so associated with kitsch and the inauthentic it was erased as a useful descriptor, only to be reclaimed almost fifty years later. Corroboree became the bastard notion par excellence imbued with “in- authenticity.” It was such a popularly known term, that it stood as a generic brand for anything dinky-di Australian. (4) Corroboree came to be read as code for tourist trash culture corrupted by white man influence.

  • Benevolent Colonizers in Nineteenth-Century Australia Quaker Lives and Ideals
    Benevolent Colonizers in Nineteenth-Century Australia Quaker Lives and Ideals Eva Bischoff Cambridge Imperial and Post-Colonial Studies Series Series Editors Richard Drayton Department of History King’s College London London, UK Saul Dubow Magdalene College University of Cambridge Cambridge, UK The Cambridge Imperial and Post-Colonial Studies series is a collection of studies on empires in world history and on the societies and cultures which emerged from colonialism. It includes both transnational, comparative and connective studies, and studies which address where particular regions or nations participate in global phenomena. While in the past the series focused on the British Empire and Commonwealth, in its current incarna- tion there is no imperial system, period of human history or part of the world which lies outside of its compass. While we particularly welcome the first monographs of young researchers, we also seek major studies by more senior scholars, and welcome collections of essays with a strong thematic focus. The series includes work on politics, economics, culture, literature, science, art, medicine, and war. Our aim is to collect the most exciting new scholarship on world history with an imperial theme.

  • 3 Researchers and Coranderrk
    3 Researchers and Coranderrk Coranderrk was an important focus of research for anthropologists, archaeologists, naturalists, historians and others with an interest in Australian Aboriginal people. Lydon (2005: 170) describes researchers treating Coranderrk as ‘a kind of ethno- logical archive’. Cawte (1986: 36) has argued that there was a strand of colonial thought – which may be characterised as imperialist, self-congratulatory, and social Darwinist – that regarded Australia as an ‘evolutionary museum in which the primi- tive and civilised races could be studied side by side – at least while the remnants of the former survived’. This chapter considers contributions from six researchers – E.H. Giglioli, H.N. Moseley, C.J.D. Charnay, Rev. J. Mathew, L.W.G. Büchner, and Professor F.R. von Luschan – and a 1921 comment from a primary school teacher, named J.M. Provan, who was concerned about the impact the proposed closure of Coranderrk would have on the ability to conduct research into Aboriginal people. Ethel Shaw (1949: 29–30) has discussed the interaction of Aboriginal residents and researchers, explaining the need for a nuanced understanding of the research setting: The Aborigine does not tell everything; he has learnt to keep silent on some aspects of his life. There is not a tribe in Australia which does not know about the whites and their ideas on certain subjects. News passes quickly from one tribe to another, and they are quick to mislead the inquirer if it suits their purpose. Mr. Howitt, Mr. Matthews, and others, who made a study of the Aborigines, often visited Coranderrk, and were given much assistance by Mr.

It certainly has not let us A motto is a phrase describing the motivation or intention of an organisation. The crest of the down today and I know it will MMBW bears the motto, ‘salas mea publica merces’ not let us down in the future.” (‘public health is my reward’). 1891 Melbourne and Metropolitan Board of Works (MMBW) was established with a charter to build and maintain an underground sewerage system and operate Melbourne’s water supply. 1991 MMBW merged with the Mornington Peninsula District Water Board, Dandenong Valley and Western Port Authorities, Dandenong- Springvale Water Board, Pakenham Water Board, Lang Lang Water Board and Emerald Water Board to form Melbourne Water. At this time, Melbourne Water has three operational regions – Maribyrnong, Yarra and South East. 1995 The Victorian Government split Melbourne’s water industry into three retail water businesses (City West Water, Yarra Valley Water and South East Water). Melbourne Water was established as the wholesale water business and Melbourne Parks and Waterways (the predecessor to Parks Victoria) was set up to manage parks. Melbourne Water retains responsibility for the collection, storage and wholesaling of water and for the treatment and disposal of sewage, as well as responsibility for regional drainage and waterways within the Melbourne Water operational boundary.
