The works involve the demolition of several existing improvements to accommodate the construction works. The construction works comprise a new WACA pavilion, playing field extensions, new community amenities and an external piazza to establish the WACA as a community destination with cricket and sport at its heart. Heritage advice was sought from Griffiths Architects in the early schematic design phase of the project, to provide heritage input to the project and identify any possible impacts, as outlined in the HIS. In 2016, Griffiths Architects prepared, Western Australian Cricket Association Grounds, Heritage Assessment for GHD on behalf of the WACA. The assessment concluded that; the place has mainly historic and social values and the only object that is of any longstanding heritage significance is the re-located manual scoreboard. It is both rare and part of the theatre of cricket when in use. On the basis of these values, it would be possible for the place to meet threshold for entry in the State Register, as only one State value needs to be met. The Heritage Council would prepare its own assessment and make its own judgement at some future time. If made available, HCWA might draw on the evidence provided in this assessment as part of its assessment. No formal assessment has been undertaken, but WACA ground was included in the Heritage Council of Western Australia’s (HCWA) database in 2003 as a place to be assessed. It is included in the City of Perth’s Municipal Heritage Inventory (MHI) and the MRA’s Heritage Inventory as a Category 3 level place. It was thought at that time that the MHI assessment was prepared, that heritage values attached to the place were mainly historic and social. At that time no values were attached to the physical fabric, but by their nature MHIs are a first pass. In this respect, the Griffiths Architect report of 2016 is a more useful document. Places in italics throughout the report are include in the State Register of Heritage Places. The WACA is located in the vicinity of the Queen’s Gardens (Heritage Place no 4572), Gloucester Park (Heritage Place no 021170) and the Western Australian Police Service Complex (Heritage Place no 02170) all of which are State Heritage list registered places. Trinity College does not appear to be picked up on any heritage registers. This HIS will use the statement of significance for the WACA Grounds from the Griffiths Architects report of 2016 and from their register entries of the above places to identify any possible impacts the proposed works will have on their heritage values, and determine if any mitigation is required. Heritage Impact Statement | WACA Ground Improvement Project I December 2020 2 Summary Based on the drawings provided and considering the heritage values of the adjacent heritage places, together with the values attributed to the WACA Grounds, this heritage impact statement demonstrates, that there are no significant heritage impacts on State Heritage values arising from the proposed developments at the WACA Grounds, As a result, no mitigation is required, and there is a potential for these works to provide positive impacts to social values, with the possible increase in visitation that these works may bring, being beneficial to the future of the WACA Ground. Heritage Impact Statement | WACA Ground Improvement Project I December 2020 3 Location WACA Grounds and Stands, Perth is located on the block of land bounded by Nelson Crescent to the north, which changes to Nelson Avenue, Braithwaite Street to the east, Hay Street to the south and Hale Street to the west. Beyond the roads that bound the grounds, are a public carpark to the north, Gloucester Park, harness racing sports ground complex to the north, Trinity College to the east, the WA Police Service Complex – an administrative and police complex to the south, and Queens Gardens - a public park is located to the west.

For the full documentary evidence, please refer to the original document in the Appendix. The amalgamation of the Perth and Union cricket clubs formed the Metropolitan Cricket Club (MCC) in 1878. This powerful new club was to revolutionise the sport in the State, since it was instrumental in forming the Western Australian Cricket Association. The officers of the MCC were ordered in October 1885 to “consider the question of forming a Cricketing Association, and to make their report upon the subject as soon as possible”. This was evidently achieved with some speed since a November meeting of the committees of the various cricket clubs in Perth, held at the United Service Hotel, unanimously passed the following resolution: “That it is desirable to form a Cricketing Association of the recognised Perth Clubs, subject to the Municipal Council’s letting an adequate portion of the Recreation Ground for the exclusive right of playing thereon by such Association”. The West Australian Cricketing Association was officially established on 25 November 1885, with John James becoming President on 14 January 1866. The four initial members were Perth CC, City Temperance CC, Metropolitan CC and Union CC. In June 1886, the Football and Cricket Associations of Perth passed a resolution pledging to obtain a ground for themselves, partly because of the playing conditions on the New Recreation Ground, but mostly because they were banned from charging admission there. Again there were concerns expressed that any site near the Causeway was too far distant from the town to be practical. It was not until late 1889 that land for the WACA Grounds & Stands was granted to the Association. On 19 December, a deputation from the WACA met with Governor Frederick Broome, just two days before he was due to go to London to request Responsible Government for the State. Evidently in no mood to waste time, Broome had the Commissioner of Crown Lands, John Forrest, draw up a 999- year lease for fourteen acres two roods of Perth Reserve A27, near the Causeway, to be used for cricketing purposes. The WACA Committee was satisfied with the nature of the soil, “a stiff red clay”, and announced that it would not take much expenditure to make it “one of the finest grounds in Australia”.

  • Leviathan Mr Stirling Tuckey Tells of the Era of “Leviathan”, a Cargo Vessel That Worked Between Fremantle and Mandurah
    Leviathan Mr Stirling Tuckey tells of the era of “Leviathan”, a cargo vessel that worked between Fremantle and Mandurah. Black Bess There would be only a handful of people in the township of Mandurah today who would remember the Leviathan. Most of them would remember her as “Black Bess” or just plain Wilson’s boat, but she and her builder deserve to take a place in the early history of Mandurah for it was the venture of an old man, helped by his two sons, who worked hard for many long hours, days, months and even years, barely existing at times for lack of money or even food, to accomplish a purpose. This was to provide for Mandurah a seagoing vessel to carry cargo to and from Fremantle and help put Mandurah on the map. Well do I remember the day when she was launched! The chocks were knocked from beneath her hull and with quite some persuasion she slid down into the creek barely deep enough for her to float. From the “big bridge” she looked immense. She must have been the biggest ship ever to be within the Mandurah bar. 3 PINJARRA Road Mandurah, Western Australia | T: (08) 9550 3681 | E: [email protected] Leviathan Continued Fremantle to Mandurah Before the Great War the only means of transport between Fremantle and Mandurah was by sea (cargo only) or rail to Pinjarra and then by horse and coach or some other form of horse transport to the township. The road to Fremantle was for the greater part a track through the sand, except for patches of stony outcrop for miles north of Mandurah.

Established 1967 President's Report It is my pleasure to report on another highly successful and buoyant year for the Australian Cricket Society in 2020-21. Despite all the challenges of lockdowns and the nation’s roller- coasting battle with Covid-19 we have been able to complete a dozen functions in the last 12 months, albeit the majority by ‘Zoom’, allowing us to make another substantial donation to our gold charity partners the Ponting Foundation. Among the Zoom guests were Test offspinner Ashley Mallett, authors David Frith, Dan Liebke, Craig Dodson and Wes Cusworth and leading Australian women Annabel Sutherland and Rachael Haynes. We were also pleased to hold our annual dinner, which Covid- 19 had precluded from being held in 2020. Cricket’s fraternity and friendships were never more important than in July when our dinner guest, Test fast bowler James Pattinson was in touch on the Wednesday, telling me that a personal issue precluded his attendance for the Friday. There was just 48 hours to go and Victoria’s head coach Chris Rogers stepped in. Chris Rogers demonstrating how high the Master should be raising his arm when bowling! Pic by Johann Jayasinha - SNNI The ultimate insider in Australian cricket, a champion player and an even better bloke, Chris spoke for an hour about the Vics and the Aussies and also about his memorable 2013 Ashes trip when he broke through for the first of his five Test centuries at Durham.

  • Osborne Park Hosptial, Perth, Western Australia
    Pathway to Excellence® Case Study: Osborne Park Hospital, Perth, Western Australia Established in 1962, Osborne Park Hospital (OPH) provides comprehensive specialist health care services to patients and families throughout Western Australia (WA). The 150-bed facility features three main clinical areas: rehabilitation and aged care, surgical services, and women’s and newborn services. Several years ago, nursing leaders sought new ways to revitalize the hospital’s mature workforce, motivate and engage younger nurses, and validate the exceptional work of the nursing staff. ANCC’s Pathway to Excellence Program offered the perfect vehicle to achieve these goals. The journey gave OPH the opportunity to benchmark against international norms and positively transform the practice environment. In addition, the prospect of being the first Australian hospital with the Pathway to Excellence designation was very motivating. In 2014, OPH became the first hospital in Australia and the second hospital outside of the United States to earn the Pathway credential. The achievement led to several significant quality and safety improvements. A nurse-driven hand hygiene compliance campaign focused on improving the hospital’s handwashing rate over a two-year period. Strategies included staff education, a new jewelry and nail policy, regular updates via newsletter, notice boards and competitions, and targeting staff groups with low compliance rates. As a result, the hospital’s hand hygiene compliance rate improved from 55% to more than 88%, significantly above the Australian national average of 72%. OPH is regularly among the top-performing hospitals in WA for hand hygiene and recently received the WA Health Award in the Performance Improvement Category.
