Aquinas College Chapel

The Aquinas College Chapel, formally known as the Chapel of St Thomas Aquinas, is a heritage-listed building located on the Aquinas College property in Salter Point, in the city of Perth, Western Australia. The building is owned by the Christian Brothers as part of the Aquinas College property. History The chapel was officially opened on 12 August 1966. The single-storey stone and concrete chapel was listed of the permanent register of heritage places by the Heritage Council of Western Australia on 17 December 2010. The Chapel was one of the first Catholic buildings constructed in Western Australia in response to the impact of liturgical changes arising from the Second Vatican Council, with the Chapel's form and plan implementing the Council’s theological emphases on inclusiveness in worship. Completed in the Late Twentieth Century Organic architectural style, the Chapel features innovative use of traditional materials and a curved form and design to complement its natural setting. Materials included the rare use of red Mount Barker stone, which had a limited distribution and is no longer quarried.

Araluen Botanic Park

Araluen Botanic Park is located in a sheltered valley in the Darling Ranges, approximately 30 kilometres (19 mi) south of Perth, Western Australia, in the suburb of Roleystone. The Botanical Park covers an area of about 59 hectares (150 acres). There is a small entry fee to the park, and it is open every day of the year. There is a mixture of exotic plant varieties, however the park also contains many remnants of native bush. History Jack Simons bought the property in 1929 on behalf of the Young Australia League (YAL) to use as a holiday camp. The site was officially opened in November 1931 by state attorney-general Thomas Davy. It was named in honour of Henry Kendall's poem "Araluen", referring to Araluen, New South Wales, and said to mean "running water" in an Indigenous language of New South Wales. The YAL put the Araluen Botanic Gardens up for sale in 1985 (but retained Camp Simons). A private investor was going to redevelop the land, however the local communities rallied the state government to purchase the park. Encouraged by strong community support, the state government purchased the park in 1990. The Araluen Botanic Park Foundation became incorporated in July 1990 with the aim of working with the Western Australian Planning Commission to restore the park. Since 1995, the foundation has managed the park under lease from the commission. Facilities Facilities include a gift shop, cafe with tearooms and function centre, parking, toilets, a miniature train and walkways. The old swimming pool is now a lake and the diving board has been removed. Events Araluen hosts annual events, including the Tulip Festival in spring and the Fremantle Chilli Festival in summer at Fremantle Esplanade and the Fremantle Fishing Boat Harbour. From 1997 till 2007 an annual folk music festival was also held each spring in Araluen. Children's activity days are held during school holidays. Araluen recently sponsored the ANZMAC Mid-year Doctoral Colloquium Event. References External links Official website

Armadale Health Service

Armadale Health Service is a 271-bed public healthcare facility in Mount Nasura, in Perth's south-eastern suburbs. The campus includes Armadale Hospital, a general hospital with an emergency department with 47 acute-care spaces. The campus also includes Armadale's Community Health Service, Mental Health Service, and Aged Care and Rehabilitation Service. The hospital is the only one in Western Australia to reserve spots for dialysis patients. History Before a hospital was established in Armadale, anyone in the area requiring medical attention beyond what the local doctor could provide had to travel into Perth. In 1924, the government made available an annual subsidy of £A 50, equivalent to A$4,600 in 2022, to encourage the establishment of a private hospital. In 1946, the Armadale Kelmscott Road Board planned to purchase the private hospital, and open a public hospital at the site. An incorporated society would be formed to own and run the premises. In March 1946, the hospital building was taken over as a district war memorial hospital. It was initially operated under a lease while funds were being raised to buy the building. The hospital was extended with a new block, including an operating theatre, that was opened by The Minister for Housing, Mr. Wild, on 8 February 1953. It was subsidized by a government grant of £A 4000, equivalent to A$159,000 in 2022. A major redevelopment occurred between 1999 and 2001. In February 2005, the hospital took over the adjacent private facilities, previously known as the Galliers Private Hospital and the Galliers Specialist Centre. In 2007, the emergency department was expanded to twice its previous size. In May 2024, Minister Mark Butler announced that an urgent care clinic will be built to reduce pressure on the Armadale Health Service. References

Arthur-Pieman Conservation Area

The Arthur–Pieman Conservation Area (APCA) stretches along West Coast Tasmania, covering over 1,030 square kilometres (400 sq mi). Much of the reserve is between the Arthur River in the north, the Pieman River in the south and the Frankland and Donaldson Rivers to the east. It is a dynamic landscape which is being continually reshaped by wind, fire and water. The area has a rich Aboriginal heritage which has left markers in the landscape, such as middens, hut depressions, artefact scatters and rock art. These special places and their associated cultural landscapes show that Aboriginal people in the past had a special relationship with the land - a relationship which continues with Aboriginal people today. The Arthur–Pieman Conservation Area provides a range of opportunities for recreation, from surfing and diving to recreational off-road driving and fishing.

Arts Centre Melbourne

Das Arts Centre Melbourne, ursprünglich bekannt als Victorian Arts Centre, ist ein Zentrum für darstellende Künste. Es besteht aus einem Komplex von Theatern und Konzertsälen in Melbourne, Victoria, Australien. Das Zentrum befindet sich in der St. Kilda Road 100 im Southbank District und zählt zum denkmalgeschützten Gebäudebestand, erfasst im Victorian Heritage Register. Geschichte Der Bau des Arts Centre Melbourne begann mit der Genehmigung eines Masterplans im Jahr 1960, entworfen von Roy Grounds. Dieser sah eine zweistufige Entwicklung vor: zuerst die National Gallery of Victoria, danach einen Theaterkomplex mit einem markanten Turm (Spire) als Symbolbauwerk. Aus dem Standort, auf dem einst ein Flussbett lag ergaben sich große technische Herausforderungen. Erbaut wurde es schließlich zwischen 1973 und 1984. Parallel zur Konstruktion und nach dem Tod Grounds im Jahr 1981 übernahm der Filmausstatter und Designer John Truscott die Innenraumgestaltung. Das Arts Centre Melbourne umfasst außerdem mehrere architektonische Besonderheiten. So war für die Spire zunächst ein massiver Kupferkegel geplant, der jedoch nach Windkanaltests verworfen wurde. Unter dem Playhouse Theatre wurde ein „vomitory“ angelegt, ein Zugang, über den Darstellende im Zuschauerraum erscheinen können. Über der Hammer Hall befindet sich ein Beobachtungsraum mit Tapete von Florence Broadhurst. Im State Theatre befindet sich eine Lounge mit einer hinterleuchteten Wand aus Harz, die mehr als 464.000 Murmeln und über 2300 Objekte enthält. Die von Truscott entworfenen Innenräume verwenden zudem Spiegel, reflektierende Flächen und goldfarbene Elemente, wodurch die unterirdischen Räume größer wirken sollen.
