A fashion designer and a scientist walk onto a sandbar ... the rest, they hope, will change history. Kit Willow and Tim Flannery are conservationists from different walks of life, but with a shared environmental purpose and passion.

They met our journalist Jane Rocca on a Climate Council research trip to Heron Island in the Great Barrier Reef. Willow’s label, KITX, was among the sustainable brands invited by the Duchess of Cambridge to a Commonwealth exchange program this year – from a garment studio to Buckingham Palace and Heron’s shores, the world is listening. ●

COVER STORY

Fashion designer Kit Willow and scientist Dr Tim Flannery share an eco-minded mission.

THE FABRIC of LIFE 10

DOM A IN REV IEW

“We are powerful entities on the planet ... and it’s time to man up and realise you have to change.”

DR TIM FLANNERY

W

hen Australian fashion designer Kit Willow launched a sustainable fashion line Kitx in 2015, she put the planet before large profits and modelled her new business on a win-win ideology.

It was during a year off after departing Willow, her first fashion brand, that she had her business epiphany. She wanted to reinvent her own fashion wheel by sourcing ethical fabrics, working with mills that minimised water waste and pollution, and one where artisans were able to give back to their communities.

“I had to create a brand that minimised the use of materials and its impact on the environment,” says Willow, who was inspired after meeting industry expert Jochen Zeitz in 2013 – the man behind the B Team with Sir Richard Branson – who found profitable ways for business to be eco-friendly.

“With manufacturing being one of the planet’s greatest pollutants, I knew I had to do something,” Willow says.

“But, I personally wanted to address sustainability without compromising desirability, and there were no Australian brands doing it.”

Discarded plastic found on the ocean floor is repurposed into a sultry, black body suit in Kitx’s resort collection for 2019. It’s an achievement she’s proud of. The luxury garment is made from econyl – a sustainable generation process developed by Italian company Aquafil, which produces 100 per cent recycled textile yarn.

“They remove fishing nets from the ocean and turn it into a nylon thread, which is then made into a fabric using solar power in Italy,” says Willow.

“That’s a great example of a win-win. We’re reversing negative impact into a positive and taking something that doesn’t belong in the ocean and

harming marine life, and turning it into a thread. I really feel this is where technology and commerce needs to go in the future.”

Her mission to save the planet one eco-frock at a time has also caught the attention of acclaimed Australian scientist, writer and conservationist Dr Tim Flannery. He has written more than 27 books on climate change and last month hosted a Climate Council research trip to Heron Island on the Great Barrier Reef alongside Willow to discuss the impact of fossil fuels and carbon emissions on coral life.

“It’s what I call a wicked problem,” Dr Flannery says. “It has taken us 200 years to get where we are.

We built a life on fossil fuels and now there’s costs for doing that.

“If people don’t believe we have an influence on the planet, I think they’re not seeing the big picture,” he says.

“Just look at the earth at night – it’s lit up like a Christmas tree. We are powerful entities on the planet and the atmosphere is 500 times smaller than the ocean. We are changing the composition of the atmosphere, and it’s time to man up and realise you have to change.”

T

hroughout history, protest has always been a powerful tool of self-expression and freedom. Bob Dylan did it through folk songs while 6000 French students spurred a social uprising in Paris in May 1968. Willow says a new revolution is happening in 2018 and consumers are voting with their conscience.

“Consumers are ready now,” she says.

“There is a global awareness now which is stronger than ever. More people are asking for sustainable choices. If my business model is successful then others will think of doing business

Wo r d s

JA N E R O C CA ●

Ph o t o

this way – that’s when I know I will have achieved what it set out to do.”

Willow was one of the designers featured at the Commonwealth Fashion Exchange at Buckingham Palace this year – an initiative founded by film producer and eco-activist Livia Firth – in which she and craftswomen from the Solomon Islands combined on a dress that used no dyes or machines.

She still works closely with artisans and sources through trusted bodies such as Fashion Revolution and Artisans of Fashion.

“Working with artisans is the key to low impact.

The weaving is made by hand, it’s got the human touch and it’s old world. We have to keep that going,” says Willow.

Fabrics with minimal impact on the environment include organic cotton (because no chemicals or pesticides were used), hemp, linen and silk. Viscose and cellulose fibres that have been consciously grown (no forests were cut down in collecting the wood pulp to make it) – are better choices than pollutants like polyester and nylon.

What does the Great Barrier Reef have to do with fashion and politics? Plenty, according to a new Climate Council report that estimates a repeat coral bleaching is likely every two years by 2034 under current greenhouse gas pollution rates.

“We have to go from a carbon-emitting economy to a carbon-absorbing economy one,” Willow says.

“And we have to listen to scientists like Tim Flannery, and put them on a pedestal. Warming oceans is no accident – it’s linked to carbon emissions, and we need to take notice of what we’re doing to the planet and start making decisions that limit the devastation. If you don’t have a sustainability strategy as a business, you’re dead in the water.” ●

Add a little dark drama to dinner Squid Spaghetti Mussels, parsley, white wine, chilli & squid ink

Serves 2 15 minutes

T

his is a really fun, simple, visually exciting and incredibly tasty pasta. It’s quick to make, and with a nice cold glass of white wine on the side it’s a joy to share with someone special. You should be able to get squid ink in good supermarkets or from your fishmonger, but if not you’ll find it’s just one click away online. ●

Jamie Cooks Italy by Jamie Oliver is published by Penguin Random House © Jamie Oliver Enterprises Limited

250g mussels, scrubbed, debearded, from sustainable sources 150g dried spaghetti 2 cloves of garlic ¼ of an onion ½ a fresh red chilli Olive oil 2 anchovy fillets in oil, from sustainable sources 100g baby squid, cleaned, from sustainable sources 100ml Greco di Tufo White wine 2 teaspoons squid or cuttlefish ink, from sustainable sources ½ a bunch of fresh flat-leaf parsley (15g) Cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil Method ■ Pick through the mussels and tap any that are open – if they don’t close, discard.

Cook the pasta in a pan of boiling salted water according to the packet instructions. Meanwhile, peel and finely chop the garlic and onion, finely slice the chilli and place it all in a large frying pan on a high heat with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and the anchovies. Fry, stirring regularly, while you finely slice the squid into rings, keeping the tentacles whole. Stir the wine and squid ink into the pan and let

it reduce by half. Add all the squid and the mussels, pop the lid on and leave for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the mussels have opened (discard any that remain closed).

■

Meanwhile, pick and roughly chop the parsley leaves. Once cooked, use tongs to drag the

pasta straight into the frying pan, letting some starchy cooking water go with it.

Sprinkle in the parsley, then toss over the heat for 1 minute, loosening with an extra splash of cooking water if needed.

Dish up, drizzle with a little extra virgin olive oil, and tuck right in. ●

V and radio personality Ash Pollard made a name for herself as a contestant on My Kitchen Rules three years ago. Now, the curly haired blonde returns with a cooking show on Network Ten, Foodie Adventures with Ash Pollard, where travel, recipes and celebrity dinner parties make the upper cut.

Born in Tasmania, raised on the Gold Coast and a former Melbourne gal, Pollard now calls the NSW Central Coast home after starting a job as host of a morning breakfast radio show on SeaFM. She relocated north in December last year, leaving behind friends and boyfriend Peter Ferne to try her luck on air and further her media career. Pollard still has a soft spot for Melbourne, though, the city that inspired her to become a chef. She gets back every other weekend for love and pleasure.

“I moved to Melbourne when I was 24. It was a melting pot for cuisine discovery,” says the 32-year-old.

“My interest in food was spurred after I met Camilla [her teammate on the Network Seven cooking show] and being around her passionate family, who love to cook,” she says. “Nobody in my family really has a passion for food like I do, although mum makes exceptional desserts.”

It was a former boyfriend who encouraged Pollard to consider MKR. But these days she has mixed feelings about becoming famous via reality TV. She says the competition to be seen and heard in a flooded market of runner-ups means getting

noticed is harder than ever. “After telling my ex I didn’t want to be on a reality show, I suddenly found myself writing an application,’’ she says. ‘‘The next minute I was on TV and it changed my life within a month.’’

Pollard’s enthusiasm for her new life is infectious.

The go-getter dreams of having a regular cooking show and a metro-radio spot in the next few years.

For now, she’s focused on her new TV series, which combines travel to regions like Piedemonte in Italy, and Monaco, where she learns recipes from locals – avoiding tourist traps for an authentic experience.

She has spent the last three months filming episodes abroad and in Melbourne, recreating recipes for friends and a celebrity guest. Her dinner guests have included comedian Joel Creasey, model Kris Smith and former footballer Dane Swan. singer

“I love entertaining people,” she says. “It’s my happy place, and food and recipes is one way to bring the best of all those worlds together.”

Pollard speaks highly of a meal in San Daniele, Italy, and tasting a life-changing pasta dish. “I walked into a restaurant and nobody spoke a lick of English,” she says. “It was very rustic and a beautiful Italian experience. I ended up going into the kitchen to learn how four ingredients turned into the best pasta I’ve ever tasted in my life.

“All you need is fresh fettuccini pasta, cream, prosciutto and a smattering of poppy seeds – a random but thoughtful addition. Simple, but so tasty.” ● FOODIE ADVENTURES WITH ASH POLLARD \ Network Ten, Saturdays, 4.30pm.

SUNDAY SESSIONS

Time to raise a glass

Everleigh in Fitzroy is the ideal place to find a barstool and toast a new season. The bar has created a Grapefruit Collins that adds freshly squeezed citrus to a Tom Collins for the ultimate spring cleanser.

If you really want to crank it up a notch, enquire about The Starling Room, a private space you can access for groups of 15 people or fewer on any night of the week.

The relaunched rooftop at Bomba in Lonsdale Street is another place for an after work or sunset tipple. Apart from the skyline views and Spanish tapas on offer, it’s a place to cosy up to the floral cocktail notes of Dewy Dilligence. This is where Dill Gin, beetroot and apple, dry white sherry, lemon and orange blossom combine for a thirst quencher.

Donovan Cooke’s Ryne in St George’s Road, Fitzroy North gives us the Blood & Sand – a juxtaposition in title and flavour. Think vodka, blood orange, cava and citrus sugar for a spring spritz winner. A glass rimmed with sugar evokes sandy shorelines and is the ultimate pick me up for northsiders.

At Frank Camorra’s Bar Tini, Yuzu Yuptae (a yuzu and Spanish Grappa sour) is the spring cocktail of choice. For those less fixed on fruity, there’s still enough bitterness to keep the drink stiff without caving into floral consequences. Herbal grappa from Galicia in the north-west of Spain does a salsa dance with roasted yuzu gel (proudly made in Victoria). When combined with lemon juice, egg white, sugar syrup and a few dashes of Angostura bitters and double-strained into a cocktail coupe, you’ll be angling for more than just one.

A nod to Australiana comes in the patriotic form of the Bloody Bramble – a showstopper at St Kilda’s Stokehouse. Think Four Pillars Shiraz Gin, known for its sweet spice, with elements of juniper and eucalyptus. The bartenders use rosella flower in the form of a syrup, as well as candied as a garnish, to make it the perfect drink to sip in the sun.

So, whether you’re a traditionalist cocktail connoisseur, a sucker for a spritz in a highball or keen to dabble with new seasonal flavours, spring is a time to rethink your bar strategy and find a new flavour sensation. ●

MUSIC

Navigating new seas

A

fter winning 17 ARIA Awards with Powderfinger – over a career that spanned 1991 to 2010 – Darren Middleton stepped away from music and suddenly found himself reassessing his life.

At first, he walked away content to be taking some time out, but then he found it hard to reacquaint himself with music.

“I hit many emotional brick walls and got a bit depressed when Powderfinger ended,” guitarist Middleton says.

“I had to fall in love with music again, but I was depressed and had to get myself out of that place and learn to appreciate it again,” adds the father-of-two.

His third solo album, Tides, is unlike anything he’s released before. It’s upbeat and gritty with an old-school pop craving, and features Vika and Linda Bull, Kelly Lane on backing vocals, Luke Hodgson (Meg Mac) and Louis Macklin (Jet).

But more than rubbing shoulders with some of the best in the business, Middleton wanted to channel a new energy with people he knew but hadn’t worked with before.

“I purposefully wanted Tides to be different,” he says. “My first two albums were an excavation of the soul and filled with lots of home truths but I wanted this one to be more energetic and rougher around the edges. That’s why I got Davey [Lane, of You am I] involved.

“My first two albums were an excavation of the soul ... but I wanted this one to be more energetic and rougher around the edges.”

“He’s a good friend, we play in another band, Arc, together and when I first moved to Melbourne seven years ago we lived a few streets apart.”

Middleton, who also writes film scores with friend Simon Walbrook via their company Sonaire, says he left Brisbane for Melbourne as there were more work opportunities there.

He wrote the score for Heath Ledger’s Two Hands movie and has also mixed tracks for Architecture In Helsinki, Kid Loco and Princess Superstar.

As a kid, Middleton discovered a love for the guitar when a mate gave him his to mind one evening after soccer training. He was 15 when he taught himself how to play.

Tides, which was recorded straight to tape for a vintage feel, explores themes of human vulnerability and bullying.

Wo r d s

DARREN MIDDLETON

“There is a song about my son’s bullying and I see no harm in talking about it,” Middleton says.

“Over the course of a few months we noticed our son wasn’t motivated and his confidence shattered.

He wasn’t talking to us, but did open up about being bullied by a bigger kid. As a parent, you start off angry and concerned, but the recipient of the bullying doesn’t want you to tell a teacher.

“Eventually it was resolved and our son stood up for himself. It was pretty heartbreaking when you first hear about that.”

Middleton, who has also a daughter, says his life experiences find a way on to his records.

“Whether you do it consciously or subconsciously it’s ever-present,” he says. “There’s always an element of truth in the songs I write – be it personal or just observations.” ●

TRAM ROUTE 59 \ STOPS 32 - 47

Essentials for village life

W

alking around Essendon off tram route 59 is like being in a maze. Shops blend into houses, so it’s easy to mistake a whitepatioed cafe for a family dwelling.

There are many villages dotted throughout. With walking shoes on, I’m spending the day winding through the area and enjoying my pick of the many lounging spots. From a tucked-away cheese shop to a shopping promenade, there’s plenty of choice.

Along the large Moonee Ponds shopping strip, there’s something for everyone. I swing by The Source Bulk Foods and load up a paper bag of goodies for the road. I could choose from the array of energy balls or fruit-and-nut blends, but opt for chocolate-coated macadamias.

Farther afield, on either side of Essendon train station, are two more shopping villages. Each has a

quaint array of cafes, shops, and local necessities.

Near these, I discover my favourite stop on the journey, previously a one-storey home, now Copper and Spoon cafe. The interior resembles a house, but now the front room has a food-filled counter, and the corridor leads to other dining spaces.

Farthest from my starting point, at stop 47, I find a place of respite and a touch of foreign escape at pastry shop Parisian Baker, serving up a wide selection of sweet and savoury goodies. Opting for petite and carefully constructed desserts and an obligatory almond croissant, I eat them windowside; my last lounge room of the day.

Visiting homewares store Visual Addict on the way back to the tram, it’s tempting to buy up big and take a piece of Frida Kahlo paraphernalia for my own home. ● B E C D I C KI N S O N

TRAVEL \ ANT WERP It’s hard being the second child and Antwerp should know. Belgium’s biggest port city often plays second fiddle to big brother Brussels, especially when the European Parliament is sitting. However over the past few years Antwerp has been slowly, but steadily, becoming the country’s capital of cool.

The creative scene Sure, as a historic European city, Antwerp has the obligatory town square with Instagram-perfect buildings, uneven cobblestones and lofty churches, but what sets it apart is the thriving creative scene emerging from the laneways, warehouses and industrial neighbourhoods.

From the second-hand stores of Sint-Andries to the converted warehouses of Het Eilandje and openair market of Het Zuid, Antwerp is full of young artists, entrepreneurs, international students and creative types.

The architecture

SHUTTERSTOCK

From the stepped gables in the old town square to the Gothic spires of the Antwerp cathedral, the city is a showcase of historical styles. Central Station, built between 1895 and 1905, is considered one of the world’s most beautiful. The art deco Boerentoren was the first skyscraper in Europe. For a modern fix, try Zaha Hadid Architects’ Port House.

The fashion Antwerp’s association with fashion really started in the 1980s with the Antwerp Six. Their avant garde designs and distinct point of view brought Antwerp into the spotlight. Since then the city’s streets have brimmed with new designers, fashion houses and some of Europe’s best vintage fashion shopping.

Belgium’s second largest city has a definite cool factor.

The food Yes, Belgium’s staples of mussels, waffles and chocolate are delicious, but Antwerp’s food scene offers much more. The city has 17 Michelin-starred restaurants, including two-star The Jane, set in an old church, and Graanmarkt 13, which has a slowfood restaurant by notable chef Seppe Nobels plus a concept store, accommodation and a “fast slow food” truck out the front on Saturdays.

The museums Antwerp’s diamond trade is still one of world’s largest and, to celebrate, the new diamond museum DIVA has just launched. Nearby Rubenshuis was the Baroque painter’s home in the 16th-century. The Museum aan de Stroom covers the city’s history. ●

little imagination can go a long way. Picture Como House in South Yarra all dressed up by the sharpest talents in interior design. For three days, the historic property will be transformed by 25 designers, using all their gifts to create a snapshot of their individual styles.

Interior designer Tigger Hall has been planning Como by Design – one of the most exciting design events in decades – for the past 18 months, persuading international stars and the best local design talent to take part. “It’s a wonderful challenge for a lot of interior designers to work in a space that is not their own,” Hall says.

And after years of muted greys and neutrals, the colour revival is here just in time, Hall says.

Beautiful textiles in vibrant colours will be woven into the exciting design showcase where visitors can see, feel and appreciate the mansion anew.

“Australia has been lacking colour for such a long time and this event will be a jewel box of colour,” the Melbourne-based designer says from London.

United States has become much more colourful, but Australia is catching up.

Como by Design is a chance to see the work of Melbourne designers side by side, as they transform the sitting rooms, drawing rooms, bedrooms and bathrooms of the National Trust house.

“I would love to show younger designers how beautiful antiques and ‘brown furniture’ can be, and how you can sow an element of tradition into a room,” Hall says.

British doyenne of interior design Nina Campbell is among the guest speakers. Campbell has worked for royalty, and celebrities including Rod Stewart and Ringo Starr. She will be signing copies of her new book, Nina Campbell Interior Decoration: Elegance and Ease.

There will be 10 seminars in the Como ballroom for guest speakers and local experts to share their knowledge. Talks include how to collect art, how to display art, how to use colour in your home, design aesthetics and how to curate design. The session on the bespoke world of artisan craftsmanship should

be particularly interesting, Hall says, as Melbourne has a rich collection of creative craftspeople.

High-profile garden designer Paul Bangay and international designer Thomas Hamel are also among the speakers. Other participants include Chalmers Le Fevre, Brownlow Interior Design and gardener Julian Ronchi.

Danielle Serpanchy, who left a career in finance to follow her creative passions, says she designed her contribution around the themes of femininity, journey and heritage to honour the women of the Armytage family, who owned the property for almost 70 years.

The idea of a “show house” event has been run successfully in New York, Los Angeles and London for years, and Hall, who is known for her fondness for textiles, fabrics and colour, hopes that visitors will be inspired by the displays.

She hopes to make this a bi-annual event with the next show-house planned for Sydney. Profits go to youth charity The Prince’s Trust, of which Hamel and Bangay are ambassadors. ●

Smarter, not harder, gets results

H

ow much should you exercise a day? This is one of the most-asked questions of me.

Gone are the days in which it was commonly believed that in order to get results or enjoy the benefits of exercise, you needed to train for an hour a day.

I’m a big believer that the quality of your workouts is more important than the quantity, and this has long been my approach when it comes to training.

Instead of trying to log as many hours in the gym as possible or double up on your daily workouts, you need to make every workout count, as opposed to counting every workout.

During my time in the fitness industry, I’ve learnt that consistency, variety and intensity will yield better results than volume.

Obviously, if you’re training for an endurance event or the like, you may need to train longer, harder and more often but for the average Joe or

Sally, it’s about training smarter, not harder. So how much should you exercise a day?

I definitely think we should aim to do something active every single day, but this doesn’t mean you need to push your body to the max seven days a week. Adopting a balanced attitude and giving your body the rest it needs is imperative if you want to avoid injury or burnout.

Personally, I try to do three to five challenging workouts a week that are either high intensity interval training (HIIT) or strength-based.

I complement these with two lower-impact, lower-intensity workouts that could be anything from walking my dog to a swim, a yoga session or even just some nice mobility work on the foam roller.

I believe that 28 minutes is the magic number.

The reason for this is three-fold. It is long enough to get brilliant results but short enough to genuinely

train at high intensity and, very importantly, and often overlooked, it’s under that 30-minute psychological barrier so many of us have. We stop telling ourselves we don’t have time and our consistency is better than ever.

So, move every day and aim for quality not quantity with your higher-intensity sessions. Of course, some days I go for a little bit extra, but knowing my minimum requirement is 28 minutes means I get it done. ● ● 28bysamwood.com

s director of Geelong Grammar’s Institute of Positive Education, Justin Robinson admits his long-term hope for how wellness is taught in schools could actually end up costing him and his colleagues at least their titles.

“Part of our hope is that the name will disappear – positive education will just be called ‘education’, because no matter where you’re educated you’ll learn numeracy, literacy, all the academic and creative skills,” Robinson says.

“But you’ll also learn about resilience and gratitude and relationships, and the social and emotional skills that will help you throughout life.”

Robinson believes schools chart their direction in keeping with society’s needs; in the early 1900s, for example, education was framed around the

industrial revolution, when people needed to obey rules and carry out repetitive jobs.

Today, with the rise of ill-being evident in growing rates of anxiety, depression and suicide, schools need to be proactive in providing wellbeing skills and knowledge. “Partly as a result of a fairly safe, peaceful society – and then also through increased ill-being in the developed world – the response has been, ‘Let’s build a science around wellbeing’,� he says. “Hence, came positive psychology; ‘Let’s try to study hope, study optimism, study resilience, study how you build relationships, study how you find meaning and purpose in your life. Let’s add some of that scientific rigour and method to trying to work out how you help a young person develop social and emotional skills so as to cope and contribute in society,’ � he says.

Geelong Grammar’s focus on positive education dates back more than a decade, while the institute – a resource that has helped train nearly 15,000 teachers from all over the world in wellness education – has been operating for the past five

years. Through a project called Positive Education Enhanced Curriculum, a carefully sequenced curriculum framework sets out more than 400 lessons covering students from early learning through to VCE. Robinson notes that before wellness was actively taught in schools, its principles were embedded for children through participation in youth groups, sporting clubs and the like – effectively a case of the village raising the child.

The structured model of teaching wellness relies on a similar sharing of the load, with parents, teachers and students all on board.

Embedding the teaching element, so that a lens of wellbeing sits across everything at school, can be done without fuss and with an eye to the small

things, such as teachers not having special chairs that differ from those of students and perpetuate notions of power. Or committee meetings (uniform, parents’ advisory, and so on) breaking with the norm by placing a single item on the agenda – wellbeing – and discussing it.

Buy-in to the program continues at Geelong Grammar, with Robinson reporting that every staff member – from the principal to teachers, gardeners and cleaners – has completed a three-day positive education discovery course. “Which shows them how important we think wellbeing is, and to have this common language to help nurture the wellbeing of those around us. It’s in the water now; it’s just something we do.� �

EDUCATION & INNOVATION

Taking practical steps

I

n the not-so-distant past, “wellness” was an unfamiliar concept that had nothing to do with the classroom; these days, it’s a staple of many – if not most – schools, with educators across Australia weaving wellbeing programs and topics into their curriculum.

This year, Mentone Girls’ Grammar went a step further by introducing a new resource to complement their wellness component.

SHE Journals are diaries and wellbeing planners that were designed by a team of the school’s teachers and senior staff, and handed out to every student at the beginning of term one.

Content varies for different year levels, and the books are divided into sections such as mindfulness and life skills.

Joanne Frost, the school’s vice-principal and head of wellbeing, says the journals were created because teachers “saw a need”.

“We were doing a lot of things with a lot of different resources, and now we’ve got everything in one place,” she says. “It’s a support to underpin some of our program.”

“Some” and not “all”, because the school’s wellbeing program must be dynamic in order to respond to issues as they arise in the community and the wider world.

So far, the journals have been a huge success, with other schools keen to adapt them for their own students. Frost says students – particularly those in years 7 and 8 – have really engaged with the initiative, telling teachers they “love” their journals and sharing suggestions for next year’s editions.

“Girls are enjoying having the opportunity to reflect on their day,” she adds.

“It’s nice to give them permission to have that quiet time to do a bit a journaling or mindful colouring, even some goal setting for the next week.

“It’s theirs; it’s not about teachers looking at it,” she says.

Over at The Knox School in Wantirna South, staff recently revamped their wellbeing program significantly to ensure its relevance.

“It was completely reviewed to look at the issues children are facing today, particularly in light of smartphones and social media,” explains principal Allan Shaw.

“Subsequently, it’s had a much greater focus on communication skills, care, empathy, resilience and responsibility.”

A wellbeing committee comprised of the school’s vice-principal, psychologist, nurse and heads of house, oversees the program, while heads of junior, middle and senior schools also provide input and monitor its progress. Like Mentone Girls’ Grammar, the school ensures the program is adaptable in order to address issues that might arise.

HAPPY HEALTHY

&

HIGH ACHIEVING

“There is an actual program to be followed but, also, we understand that key to it is the relationships that the adults have with the students,” says Shaw.

“So, the program can be flexed by the teachers when needed, should they need to pursue a certain other topic with students because it’s topical.”

Feedback from surveys regularly conducted with parents and students shows the revamp is proving popular. “We’re seeing continuing growth in the overall satisfaction with the program,” Shaw says.

“That’s good to see.”

Essentially, wellness programs allow students to prioritise emotional, mental and physical health alongside academics, giving them the language and space to speak up if they need help.

This adds up to making wellbeing initiatives, in Frost’s words, “a no-brainer, really”. ● ERIN MUNRO

Focus on nutrition

I

t’s not news that diets heavy on sugar, saturated fats and processed foods aren’t healthy for kids’ growing bodies, but recent research is showing poor diets can be detrimental to their brain development and mental health as well.

The Food and Mood Centre, a collaborative research program run by Deakin University, has a team of researchers studying the ways that food can influence an individual’s moods, brain and mental health. Since 2009, they’ve led studies that have demonstrated a link between diet and mood disorders, such as anxiety and depression.

And while a range of research has shown that unhealthy diets can lead to children having behavioural and emotional problems, the Food and Mood Centre’s work has found that poor nutrition is

also linked to having a smaller hippocampus – a part of the brain that plays a large role in learning and memory.

“We know that nutrition impacts on neurocognitive development in children, and not just development but also function,” explains Dr Tetyana Rocks, who joined the centre at the end of last year.

“A higher quality diet during childhood has a positive effect on cognitive functioning.”

The chief executive of Nutrition Australia, Lucinda Hancock, who has engaged with the centre on campaigns supporting healthy lunches in schools, agrees with Dr Rocks. “The bottom line is a healthy diet is crucial to ensuring children learn and concentrate and are happy,” Hancock says.

So, what should kids be eating throughout a school day to optimise energy and focus? Hancock says they need a balance of the five “core food groups”: fruit, vegetables, grains, lean meats and legumes, and dairy or dairy alternatives for calcium.

“Basically, when packing a lunchbox, you should focus on filling it with core foods,” she explains.

As an example, Hancock recommends a

“Ensure that you’re not wasting room in the lunchbox on high-kilojoule snacks that don’t have any nutrition.”

LUCINDA HANCOCK

seeking further tips, the Healthy Eating Advisory Service website (heas.health.vic.gov.au) offers a range of lunchbox ideas.

From a bigger perspective, Hancock says it’s important that schools support students’ nutrition by removing junk foods from canteens, adhering to government guidelines, and participating in healthy eating initiatives and campaigns. Examples include “fruit break” and “Crunch&Sip”, set times where students pause their work to snack on fresh fruit and vegetables and drink water.

“It’s so important that the whole school environment is engaged,” says Hancock, “and takes this responsibility seriously by supporting parents in offering good choices, rather than putting up barriers.” ● ERIN MUNRO

wholegrain sandwich or wrap with cheese, lettuce, tomato and tuna. If a child is vegetarian, eggs or a legume could be substituted to add protein. For snacks, sliced fresh fruit, vegetable sticks, yoghurt and wholegrain crackers with cheese are preferable to processed, packaged foods.

“You could even have a little wholemeal blueberry muffin,” suggests Hancock. “Ensure that you’re not wasting room in the lunchbox on high-kilojoule snacks that don’t have any nutrition.”

By providing nutritious foods, Hancock explains, parents are helping to keep their child’s mood stable and prevent the dreaded sugar rush – and the inevitable crash that follows. If time-poor, try to prepare the lunchbox the night before and plan ahead by having key foods on hand. For parents

Imagining homes of the future SPECIAL PROMOTION

L

uxe, diverse experiences and technologies will shape how we live in 2040, according to Len Warson, head of Australia’s oldest and most experienced home design and build company, Glenvill Homes.

Smaller homes near high-end shared facilities and technologies that actually make homes smarter are the way of the future, he says.

Imagining our future homes is a lifelong passion for Warson. He and his father Michael are renowned as leading housing innovators who have been dreaming up better ways to live since Michael built his first home in 1958.

Over the past 60 years, Glenvill’s reputation has grown on the back of their skilfully planned, intelligently functional homes. Warson snr introduced en suite bathrooms, parents’ retreats and billiard rooms to Australian suburban homes, while under Len’s direction Glenvill became the first homebuilder to incorporate custom design and construction under one roof, creating a new standard in Australian home building.

With a perspective honed from decades of home building innovation, Len Warson says he can see radical changes ahead for housing.

In 2040 our homes will focus on living experiences rather than physical assets, he says.

“Younger people are looking for experiences,” he says. “Even if you own the most extravagant mansion in Melbourne you can’t have everything you want in your own home. So people will opt for living smaller near larger, better fitted-out shared facilities – why not live in a resort that gives you all the experiences you want?”

Warson says this is what Glenvill Group’s development business, Glenvill Developments, has set out to do at YarraBend, the visionary, riverside suburb currently under construction 6.5 kilometres from Melbourne’s CBD. YarraBend marries open spaces with cutting edge design, new technologies and a swathe of high-end amenities including a linear park, a wellness centre, an artistic and cultural hub, shared working facilities and a vibrant food and cafe district.

“YarraBend’s immediate success shows how people are looking for the best living environments, locating themselves near premium amenities,” Warson says.

“Land is becoming more and more expensive and the great Australian dream is changing so we have to change the way we live and design homes.”

GLENVILL HOMES glenvillhomes.com.au ● 480 Church Street, Cremorne ● 9573 8393

Warson says arriving home in 2040 will be very different. With car sharing we may or may not have garages; the front door will have multiple electronic features and open to a smaller, multi-functional living space.

New technologies will mean a single space could be used for multiple functions, contributing to the affordability of housing.

“You may have electric beds that fold down for sleeping and disappear during the day, and use the roof space for wardrobe storage rather than filling rooms with excessive wardrobes.”

Room heat sensors will restrict heating, cooling and lighting to occupied areas of homes, saving power; all homes will generate and store their own power and landscaping could be regulated to ensure communities have sufficient green cover and canopies.

Bricklaying will be a historic relic replaced by

high performance composite materials including solar sheeting.

“In the next 20 years housing will change more than mobile phones – they’ve already had their revolution.”

Warson says automation will be a radical space with major breakthroughs predicted once a common language is agreed for home systems and appliances.

“Smart homes now are not that smart – products can’t talk to each other. When they can we’ll see radical shifts in what homes can do.”

Foreseeing radical changes, Warson says Glenvill Homes is reinventing itself over the next six months with a relaunch planned for February.

“Our new home range will disrupt the housing market in the same way YarraBend is disrupting the concept of urban renewal.” ● LIZ McLACHLAN

You know how old rockers like to claim that if you remember the ’60s, you weren’t really there? Well, this chic little villa unit – the domestic equivalent of a Prue Acton minidress – was there in the ’60s, yet looks as if it wasn’t: it appears to have been built yesterday.

Snapped up as a passion project by a local builder, the villa is resplendent after being remodelled and lavishly endowed with the latest materials and technology. Limed European oak graces the floor, Silestone quartz the benchtops. The bathroom, with its freestanding bath, is spectacular.

Sunseekers will be thrilled to see the living and dining area has swapped its old windows for a tall, tri-fold door. With fluid access to a new, spotted-gum deck in the north-facing garden, the scene is set for year-round entertaining. If there is a suitable current slang term for “groovy”, this place deserves it. The villa is one of a well-groomed group of eight in a private court off Third Street. It’s one of Black Rock’s most congenial spots, close to the beach and zoned for Beaumaris College.

Entry is via keypad at the front gate and on to the gabled porch. The central hall neatly divides the unit into communal and private areas; bedrooms to the right, open-plan living to the left. The living and dining area is elegant in oak against white walls, and has Wi-Fi-controlled LED downlights and a study nook with black wenge cabinetry and data points.

In the kitchen, the Miele appliances and Abey pull-out mixer tap look smart against white, soft-closing Blum cabinets. There’s a concealed laundry, step-in pantry and quartz-topped island. The kitchen also has a deck of its
