The mace was presented to the University by former Chief Commissioner of the Ballarat City Council, Vern Robson, at a ceremony on 02 February, following a national competition for its design, sponsored by the Council. (The Flag, Issue 2, July 1996) Nineteen artists responded to the competition which called for a design that would embody a distinctive Australian image reflecting the heritage of the city and in relationship with gold, an Aboriginal element and the history of the University. The winning entry, dominated by a poppet head, was submitted by Central Victorian artist/sculptor Trefor Prest, a sessional lecturer in sculpture at the University.(The Flag, Issue 2, July 1996) The Herald Sun of 03 February 1996 reported 'the new mace shows importance elements of Ballarat's heritage as well as the university's focus on the future. The artist emphasises the egalitarian nature of Australia as embodied in Ballarat's famous slice of history - the Eureka uprising. ... The mace has a poppet head at the top of the shaft - an unusual element for a mace - but it represents Ballarat's mining history and the University's evolution from the Ballarat School of Mines. An opening egg at the top stands for the nurturing of development and learning. The mace's straight shaft is depicted as the tree of knowledge and, incorporating a bark canoe scar, Ballarat's Aboriginal heritage. At the end of the shaft is a surveying device, which represents precision and accuracy ads embodied in the university's academic pursuits.' Bob Morrell of the University organised the national competition to design the mace and said 'It is in keeping with the university's logo, 'proudly flying the flag', which incorporates the Southern Cross.' This item is part of the Federation University Art Collection. The Art Collection features over 1000 works and was listed as a 'Ballarat Treasure' in 2007. Trefor Prest lectured in Sculpture at the University of Ballarat from 1995-1996.The mace symbolises the office of the Chancellor. The design of the mace is the outcome of a national competition and represents the cultural diversity of Australia. The poppet head on the top of the mace refers to gold mining, which underpinned the development of Ballarat. The protruding spikes recall the Eureka Stockade. The 'egg' shape enfolds and nurtures the development of knowledge and learning. The shaft with the three 'branches' represents the Tree of Knowledge, and includes a bark canoe scar which recognises the integration of black and white Australian traditions. The lower part of the shaft culminates in a device suggestive of scientific or surveying and measuring technology. This represents precision and accuracy embodied in the academic pursuits of Federation University Australia.art, artwork, trefor prest, prest, mace, federation university, university, eureka stockade, aborigines, scarred tree, mining, university mace, ballarat -

Nillumbik Shire CouncilPhotograph, Siri Hayes, Toxic Haze Suspension, 2023
... ...nurture...Nillumbik Shire Council melbourne Praiseworthy Alexis Wright photogram debris photography laughing waters Garambi Baanj ecosytem environment Birrarung Diamond Creek Eltham caretaker nurture index Unique state chromogenic photograph (photogram) Toxic Haze Suspension Photograph Siri Hayes ...Found objects including rubbish (thoroughly cleaned), floral and faunal debris collected whilst walking along the Birrarung and Diamond Creek in Eltham were scattered over light sensitive colour paper to create this photogram. The toxic haze hanging over 'Praiseworthy' in Alexis Wright’s award winning epic novel, informs this work and is used as the beginning point for composition: establishing a sensation of human suspension amongst virulent natural cycles that grow under, over and through human generated toxic effluvium. In both Wright’s and this work, untold colonial damage to place and culture are expressed as the result of racist and exploitive systems of domination. The work stems from years of research in the expansive Escarpment project in which I have been working alongside InPlace director Eugene Howard at Garambi Baanj to investigate the possibility of artists working as active caretakers of place and navigating ways creative practice can nurture natural spaces to derive art materials. I engage with the Diamond Creek and Garambi Baanj ecosystems by looking and actively removing rubbish that are transformed into artwork through creative endeavour and processes. Where previously I have framed landscapes from a distance using European compositional devices. In this work I am in with ‘touch’ place, that are also my materials, and look out from amongst it." Of Anglo descent Siri Hayes was born on Boonwurrung Country and has mostly practiced on Wurundjeri Woi wurrung Country in Eltham, where she lives with her artist husband and two children. Hayes works across photography, video and textiles as materials to investigate the photographic paradox in which illusion and the indexical or physical connections to the real, coexist. She is particularly interested with creatively interrogating the slippages between these but is also intrigued with how materials can embody engagement with place. Hayes has exhibited for over 20 years in solo and group exhibitions throughout Australia as well as in Japan, Canada, Finland, France and Poland. These include 'Photography: Real and Imagined,' 'Negotiating this World: Contemporary Australian Art,' 'Melbourne Now' and 'Stormy Weather: Contemporary Landscape Photography' all at the National Gallery of Victoria, 'Future Primitive' at Heide Museum of Modern Art, 'Boundary Line' at TarraWarra Museum of Art, and 'Contemporary Australian Portraiture' at the National Portrait Gallery. Hayes’s work also features in over 20 public Australian collections including the National Gallery of Australia, National Gallery of Victoria, Heide Museum of Modern Art and many reputable collections. She has received several photographic prizes including the National Photographic Purchase Award, an Australia-Korea Foundation travel grant and the Olive Cotton Award for Excellence in Photographic Portraiture. In 2008 she was a finalist in the inaugural Prix Pictet exhibited at the Palais de Tokyo, Paris, France an award for international photography that engages with environmental themes. In 2010 Hayes was artist-in-residence at the. Australia Council studio in Barcelona, Spain. Hayes completed a Bachelor of Fine Arts (photography), a Graduate Diploma of Visual Arts and a Master of Fine Art all at the Victorian College of the Arts. She also works in higher education as a lecturer in photography and visual art at the Victorian College of the Arts and has guest lectured at many other universities and institutions since the early 2000’s. Hayes is a member of the Paradoxa Collective who are four contemporary artists including Penelope Aitken, Anna Farago, Susan Wirth and Hayes that share an interest in peri-urban landscapes, connecting to the land through practical restoration and regeneration activities combined with site-informed art making who often use natural and found materials to create works that reflect on connections between places and people. She is also working onsite at Garambi Baanj alongside InPlace director Eugene Howard on the Escarpment - a multi-year project that investigates how artists might work as active caretakers of place and navigate innovative ways creative practice can nurture natural spaces to derive art materials.

The clearest historical reference comes from Les Cameron’s account of growing up in St. Albans in the 1950s–60s. He states that the St. Albans Community Youth Club was central to community life and it "Nurtured a variety of other groups, including the junior football competition.”The St. Albans Community Youth Club was central to community life in St. Albans from the post‑war population boom of 1950's and onwards.

It was one of their first projects, and their aim was to nurture continuing interest in the School among former and current students. They named it "The Ruytonian." At first, The Ruytonian was produced twice yearly, and always bore a plain cover with a simple name banner. Initially, it was the work of volunteer editors from the ORA, but in 1913 they handed the publication over to the first student editors, Esther Gibson and Lucy Tickell. Since that time, the style and content of The Ruytonian has continuously evolved. The biggest shifts occurred in 1942 when it transitioned to a yearly publication, and in 1969 when it moved to a larger A4 format with a cover image specifically selected for that year.The record has strong historic significance as it pertains to the fourth oldest girls' school in Victoria, Australia. Ruyton was founded in 1878 in the Bulleen Road, Kew, home of newly widowed Mrs Charlotte Anderson (now High Street South). Due to the age of the record dating back to 1909, we can infer it is one of the few remaining complete, intact and original examples of The Ruytonian from this period. Therefore, it can be considered an outstanding representation of its type, and is a reference example for research in early Victorian school history.
