  • Pdf Covenanting Congregations in Victoria
    COVENANTING CONGREGATIONS IN VICTORIA In Victoria, covenanting covers a range of relationships – between congregations, between parishes and between clergy. Both metropolitan and country churches are involved. Some covenants are longstanding; others have been developed much more recently. The Trinity Declaration and Code of Practice between Anglican and Uniting Churches provides guidelines and ongoing support for cooperating congregations. Christ Church Kensington has been a joint Anglican-Uniting parish for twenty years. The members always worship together and there is no distinction between them. One of the tasks has been to keep the two traditions alive – hard work! There has been heartache, as being a joint congregation has not always been easy. However, the congregation values its ecumenical nature and its openness, flexibility and inclusiveness. Children especially value their place in the congregation. Besides membership from the two founding traditions, members have come from other traditions; there are several Catholics among the members. The increasing gentrification of Kensington has placed the congregation in communal change, but members value the opportunity to witness to the rest of the church. Until recently there have been two clergy, one from each tradition, but currently there is an Anglican priest. In Melbourne, one of the oldest covenants is that between three traditions at Toorak . In this suburb, St John’s Anglican, St Peter’s Catholic and Toorak Uniting churches are in the same street, in close proximity, encouraging a tightly knit community. The Toorak Ecumenical Covenant has been renewed annually at Pentecost for seventeen years. The congregations pray for each other at every service and together each month.

Queens Bridge Street (originally called Moray Street North, along with City Road, provided the main access into South and Port Melbourne from the city when the only bridges available for foot and wheel traffic were the Princes the Falls bridges. The Kearney map of 1855 shows land north of City Road (then Sandridge Road) as poorly-drained and avoided on account of its flood-prone nature. To the immediate south was Emerald Hill. The Port Melbourne railway crossed the river at The Falls and ran north of City Road. By the time of Commander Cox’s 1866 map, some industrial premises were located on the Yarra River bank and walking tracks connected them with the Sandridge Road and Emerald Hill.

First we saw a “Bing Bong” house which was a relic of the closer settlement commission of the early 1900’s. These houses were very cheaply built and were clad inside and out with galvanized iron sheeting which went bing bong as it expanded and contracted in the sun. We then crossed the river and visited the Gonn Crossing location, en route the original Gurnett Homestead was pointed out to us. We had lunch at the Murrabit hall where the history and construction of the “Bing Bong” houses was explained and Ian McDonald spoke of the history of the district and his families involvement in local history. At Gonn station we saw the old station burial plot where there are headstones for John Capel, his horse and dog but none for his cook or the station hands buried there. Ian showed us the bridge from Gonn to Campbells Island which was built after Ian and his brother sank a punt load of sheep they were trying to bring back from the island. He then showed us a number of features and told us stories of life on the station.

  • Financial Impacts on the Tourism and Events Sector in the Gannawarra As a Result of the COVID-19 Pandemic
    LC EIC Inquiry into the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the tourism and events sectors Submission 051 Financial Impacts on the tourism and events sector in the Gannawarra as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic: Domestic Overnight Visitation in the Gannawarra is estimated at $42.2M. Murray Regional Tourism (MRT) research for the Swan Hill region (which includes Gannawarra Shire) shows a decline of 26.2%. This equates to a loss of approximately $11M. A Murray Regional Tourism report assumes “a loss of one job per $100,000 visitor expenditure loss”. The estimated loss of $11M for the Swan Hill region equates to a loss of around 110 jobs. The Cohuna Waterfront Holiday Park reported a 40% reduction in the occupancy rate during the pandemic and this was similar across many of the accommodation providers. A number of the accommodation and hospitality providers operating in small regional towns were not eligible for business support packages and received no financial assistance from COVID-19 initiatives. A large number of events were cancelled across the Gannawarra because of COVID- 19 restrictions. Cancellation of these events reflects a loss of around $850,000. Ski Racing Victoria hosts four Point Score events annually at Lake Charm. REMPLAN analysis shows these events to be worth $38,000, resulting in a loss of $152,000. Community groups have been significantly impacted as a result of COVID-19 with limited ability to raise funds. Groups have had to use limited cash reserves to continue to operate. Without events, many groups have limited capacity to contribute to their many community based projects.
