Southern Vales Christian College

Southern Vales Christian College is a Christian school located across two campuses in South Australia. It is a ministry of Harvest Church. The original campus is located in Morphett Vale with a second campus opened in Aldinga. Southern Vales Christian College first opened in September 1980 as Morphett Vale Christian Community School operating as a ministry of the Morphett Vale Baptist Church (today known as Harvest Church). A second campus in Aldinga was opened in early 1991. Both campuses are promoted as having extensive experience with special needs students. Controversy On 27 August 2021, Nine News Adelaide reported that Southern Vales Christian College has a policy against hiring homosexual teachers. While the college defended the policy based on Australia's religious discrimination laws, South Australian Premier Steven Marshall said, "South Australia has always been a diverse, accepting, respectful state and we don’t want to have discrimination here in our state."

Cairo Flats

Cairo Flats, also colloquially known as Cairo Bachelor Flats or Cairo, is a heritage-listed apartment building in the Melbourne inner city suburb of Fitzroy. Cairo Flats derives its name from the Egyptian capital city. While several theories have been proposed regarding the reason for this name, no official documentation exists to substantiate any of them, leaving the matter open to speculation. Cairo Flats is situated opposite the Royal Exhibition Building in the Carlton Gardens, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. As a result, Cairo also sits within the World Heritage Environs Area (WHEA) overlay that surrounds this precinct. The building was designed in 1935 by modernist architect Acheson Best Overend and completed in December 1936 by Blease Macpherson & Co. Cairo is a U-shaped, two story building comprising 28 apartments, mostly studio flats. Overend was influenced by modernist architect Wells Coates and the "minimum flat concept". Each apartment was designed to "provide maximum amenity in minimum space for minimum rent". Internally, all features were designed to be minimal and fully integrated. Designed for the middle-class bachelor, wardrobes, dressing tables, cupboards, shelves, kitchen tables, chairs and the bed were all incorporated as built-in elements, so that only a suitcase of clothing was required when moving in. Externally, the building's cantilevered external concrete stairs are noted as an unusual innovation and feature. Amongst a plethora of examples of blocks of flats in the modernist style, Cairo stands alone as a building designed in the 1930s with the purpose of providing high quality housing for bachelors in Melbourne. Architectural historian Professor Philip Goad included Cairo Flats in his Australian Modernism: Top 10 series, highlighting the building's significance in promoting a new way of living. The site on which Cairo sits was previously home to Uxbridge House, a private residence and then private hospital, which fell into a state of disrepair and was demolished to make way for Cairo. All that remains from the time that Uxbridge occupied the site is the original Hanover Street Brick Wall, which dates from the 1870s. Cairo has been the residence of architects John Mockeridge and Frederick Romberg. In 2025, it was one of the buildings featured in the Open House Melbourne program.

Tailem Bend Solar Power Farm

The Tailem Bend Solar Power Farm is a solar power farm near Tailem Bend in South Australia. It has 108MW of generation capacity but is limited to supplying 95MW to the national grid. An additional 85MW is proposed in stage 2. It is developed and owned by Singapore-based Vena Energy, a new name for the former Equis Energy following acquisition by Global Infrastructure Partners in January 2018. The output will be sold to Snowy Hydro for retail sale under its Lumo Energy brand. Stage 2 is also expected to provide battery storage. The solar farm covers 200 hectares (490 acres) of land with more than 390,000 photovoltaic solar panels. The panels are mounted on fixed-angle racks. The site is a joint development between Equis and Snowy Hydro. Snowy Hydro also had plans to establish a 28MW diesel generator at the site. UGL was contracted in February 2018 to build the first stage, which was expected to be connected to the power grid in the first quarter of 2019. A second stage to generate an additional 111MW is also being planned. The Tailem Bend solar farm received its generation licence on 30 January 2019, and was expected to start commissioning in February, with full production from mid-April. Its theoretical capacity is 108MW, but the licence limits it to 95MW to ensure it can deliver reactive power to the grid. The 95MW Tailem Bend solar farm began production on 4 March 2019 and officially opened on 30 May 2019. Vena Energy expects to proceed with the completion of stage two of the Tailem Bend solar farm, which will be similar in scale to the first stage. Vena Energy also has plans for a Tailem Bend Battery Energy Storage Project. The plan for a nearby diesel generator has been dropped. References

The school was established at the Belgrave Heights Presbyterian Campsite, and began as a Primary School. In the early 1990's, the school's enrolments declined from approximately 45, to a total of four students. This led to a temporary arrangement with Hillcrest Christian College, which allowed the school's numbers to increase again. In 2002, the school began transitioning into both a Primary and Secondary School progressively adding secondary year levels. In 2004, Andy Callow was appointed to the position of school principal. At the start of 2022, Andy Callow was replaced as principal by Peter Cliffe. In 2013, a Kindergarten was opened providing a purpose-built facility for early years education. Facilities include a gymnasium, cafe, and kitchen; primary school building; sports courts; technology and arts centre, and a playground.

Opening in 1957, the school's catchment area covers most of the City of Belmont and the eastern part of the Town of Victoria Park. As of Semester 1, 2020 the college had an enrolment of 929 students between Year 7 and Year 12. In Semester 1, 2011, 69 students enrolled were Indigenous Australians. From 1957 until 2000, the college was known as Belmont Senior High School. Catchment area Belmont's catchment area has been specified by the WA Department of Education to include the suburbs of Ascot, Cloverdale, Kewdale, Redcliffe and Rivervale. Students in Carlisle and Lathlain have the choice between Belmont City College and Kent Street Senior High School. Belmont's feeder primary schools are Belmay, Belmont, Cloverdale, Redcliffe and Tranby. Its neighbour high schools are Kent Street Senior High School to the southwest, Cannington Community College to the south and Governor Stirling Senior High School to the northeast. History The school opened in 1957. Its catchment area grew substantially after the Court government's closure of Kewdale Senior High School in 1999, but between 2000 and 2005, there was a decline in the percentage of students enrolling from the feeder primary schools, with the school population shrinking from 790 to 520 in this period. During this period, there were also a number of violent incidents at the school which attracted negative media attention. From 2005 to 2006 onwards, the school instituted a number of reforms focusing on improving the school culture and the efficiency of administration. These included the school-wide implementation of the "Choose Respect" initiative to address bullying, which won a regional award for excellence in 2007 and saw Belmont teachers presenting at Safe Schools events in other states, and a restorative justice initiative for peaceful conflict resolution. The school also formed a special agreement with the University of Western Australia during this period for its academic students, and with the City of Belmont for its vocational students. In 2010 the college became one of the first 34 schools in WA to become part of the state government's Department of Education internal Independent Public Schools scheme. The system retained direct accountability to the Director General of Education while allowing the school to have some control over its resources.
