  • Rosetta Head Well and Whaling Station Site PLACE NO.: 26454
    South Australian HERITAGE COUNCIL SUMMARY OF STATE HERITAGE PLACE REGISTER ENTRY Entry in the South Australian Heritage Register in accordance with the Heritage Places Act 1993 NAME: Rosetta Head Well and Whaling Station Site PLACE NO.: 26454 ADDRESS: Franklin Parade, Encounter Bay, SA 5211 Uncovered well 23 November 2017 Site works complete June 2019 Source DEW Source DEW Cultural Safety Warning Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples should be aware that this document may contain images or names of people who have since passed away. STATEMENT OF HERITAGE SIGNIFICANCE The Rosetta Head Well and Whaling Station Site is on the lands and waters of the Ramindjeri people of the lower Fleurieu Peninsula, who are a part of the Ngarrindjeri Nation. The site represents a once significant early industry that no longer exists in South Australia. Founded by the South Australian Company in 1837 and continually operating until 1851, it was the longest-running whaling station in the State. It played an important role in the establishment of the whaling industry in South Australia as a prototype for other whaling stations and made a notable contribution to the fledgling colony’s economic development. The Rosetta Head Whaling Station is also an important contact site between European colonists and the Ramindjeri people. To Ramindjeri people, the whale is known as Kondli (a spiritual being), and due to their connection and knowledge, a number of Ramindjeri were employed at the station as labourers and boat crews. Therefore, Rosetta Head is one of the first places in South Australia where European and Aboriginal people worked side by side.

AVAILABLE FROM Adult Literacy Information Office, Level 1, 6-8 Holden Street, Ashfield, New South Wales 2131, Australia. PUB TYPE Guides Classroom Teacher (052) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC09 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Adult Basic Education; *Adult Literacy; Basic Skills; Foreign Countries; Instructional Materials; *Integrated Curriculum; Learning Activities; *Literacy Education; Mathematics Instruction; *Mathematics Skills; *Numeracy; Student Evaluation; Teaching Guides IDENTIFIERS Australia ABSTRACT This resource includes units of work developed by different practitioners that integrate the teaching of literacy with the teaching of numeracy in adult basic education. It is designed to provide models of integration for teachers to develop similar resources on different contexts or themes. The units follow slightly different formats. Unit lengths vary from a few sessions to the basis of a semester's work. The way in which literacy and numeracy are integrated also varies; in some units there are literacy and numeracy activities on the same theme or context, and in others activities are more closely woven. The nine sections are on these topics: water, gardens, reasonable force, aboriginal land, work, women in Australia, tourist spots, juggling pool, and banking. Components of each section include the following: learning outcomes; topics; resources; future directions; teacher notes that correlate in a column format whether the activity is primarily literacy or numeracy or both, activities, resources, and assessment; and handouts. Units list additional resources that can be used to extend the students' understanding of particular mathematical skills.

  • News from the 120Th Meeting
    News from the 120th meeting The South Australian Heritage Council (Council) meeting of 5 August 2021 was held via electronic means on Kaurna Country, apart from one member being located on Barngala Country (Port Lincoln). Welcome to this edition of our SA Heritage Council News. There was a remarkable array of places on the August agenda. There are several brewery buildings listed already and a sprinkling of memorial groves and parks, but we now have a first – a brewery garden is provisionally entered. Council members were treated to some wide ranging reading in preparing for the meeting. The Council added provisional listing for an air raid shelter that illustrates the “climate of fear” in our state after the bombing of Darwin in World War II and an underwater fossil cave of international significance. Joining these provisional listings was a plaque lamenting the loss of Colonel William Lights “Theberton Hall” cottage in 1926. Confirmed listings spanned more than 130 years of our history, an 1837 Whaling Station is joined by a 1940s piggery built largely for Japanese Prisoners of War and a 1969 modernist church. We hope you enjoy finding out more and your feedback is very welcome. Keith Conlon Chair, South Australian Heritage Council Image: West End Brewery Garden. Source DEW files. 1 | P a g e South Australian Heritage Council Summary 2020-21 The Council agreed to once again publish a report on its work of 2020-21. The façade of the former Sands and McDougall building on King William Street graces the front cover. The report details the 20 places considered in relation to the South Australian Heritage Register consisting of 13 listings and 7 rejections.
