The convenience of a private study and lounge for greeting guests or just to secure some private time will be welcomed. And a vast outdoor room offers additional living and entertaining options all year round.

Did we mention the sweeping staircase, the choice of 14 facades, or that the grand master bedroom features not one, but two walk-in-robes? So much to say. It simply has to be experienced. Make your move.

Caulfield Racecourse is unique in the world of sport – it’s a public park.

The day photographer Julian Kingma visited the track for this week’s cover shoot with the face of 2019 Caulfield Cup Carnival, Laura Dundovic, a few local walkers and their dogs trotted past, as frocks were fluffed and poses perfected. Larger, more powerful four-legged beasts take over the turf for the carnival this month. It is such an intimate sporting arena that punters might find a divot in their bubbly glass as thoroughbreds storm right past the swish Heath Enclosure, almost close enough to touch. Meet Laura inside. ●

odel, actress and TV personality Laura Dundovic is the face of the 2019 Stella Artois Caulfield Cup Carnival and she is most looking forward to bringing a touch of glam to the track in the city she now calls home.

“I am obsessed with ’80s silhouettes and have always loved fashion,” says Dundovic, who counts fashion labels Bec & Bridge, Dion Lee and Rachel Gilbert as her favourites.

dreaming about them. The eldest of three children who grew up in Sydney’s western suburbs, her father John worked as an architectural draftsman and her mother Shirley as a broker.

She admits she was shy and very clingy to her mother as a toddler, and discovered a love of acting in high school before battling chronic fatigue in her late teens, which wasn’t diagnosed until the age of 21.

“I was a total tomboy as a child, I preferred the company of my brothers over hanging with the girls.

I guess it was all I knew as a kid,” she says. Dundovic says growing up with

difficult battle. “I was tired and sick for a long time, I have a genetic disorder and auto-immune disease so fatigue is a massive issue for me.

“I get sick easily so my motivation to keep fit is for health, not so much a physical thing,” she explains.

Dundovic is enjoying her time in Melbourne. She now lives here with her boyfriend Quade Cooper, a star recruit for the Melbourne Rebels rugby union team, and the pair have been dating for five years.

“We met through a mutual friend and we’ve been together ever since,” Dundovic says.

“Quade loves to travel as much as I

Dundovic says. “He taught around seven of us and we became a tightknit group. Even after the course was over, Serhat would have us over for movie nights, taught us about documentaries and watching people and discovering all sorts of characters and roles we could evolve into.

“Serhat taught me that when you love what you do, you want to help others. He took great care of his students and inspired me, to not just want to succeed in acting, but to help others in life being an important message too.”

As ambassador, Dundovic will be trackside for Ladbrokes Caulfield Guineas Day (October 12) and Stella Artois Caulfield Cup Day (October 19). Racegoers will also flock to Catanach’s Jewellers Blue Sapphire Stakes Day (October 16).

Dundovic first came to attention as the winner of Miss Universe Australia in 2008, that accolade pushing her into the spotlight, securing ambassador roles with David Jones and fronting fashion campaigns for label Charlie Brown.

She loved playing soccer (her dad was her assistant coach at high school), and inherited his fix-it skills by topping her computer classes at school, but didn’t feel comfortable in her own skin until she turned 18.

“As a teenager I really didn’t like my body because I was tall and quite thin,” says the 180-centimetre model, now aged 32. “When I started modelling I still wasn’t that confident, but once I turned 18 I met boys taller than me and started to feel more comfortable within myself – I didn’t feel so lanky and awkward.”

And what I really love about Quade is his connection to his family in New Zealand. Family is important to both of us.”

Dundovic made her feature film debut as Sandra in the 2019 movie Me & My Left Brain and wants more of the silver screen life. She thanks her mentor at NIDA Serhat Caradee for being her voice of reason.

“I was in Croatia for my brother’s wedding a few months ago and posted some workout videos while overseas; some people reacted by saying, ‘Why would you work out on holidays?’” she says.

“But for me it’s about taking care of myself and doing what I love – that means training too for strength and fitness. And after experiencing chronic fatigue, I know what it takes to get exhausted easily and what I need to do to keep my health in check. I’m doing this for me, there’s really no other reason. I love to keep myself healthy and I want to be around for a long time.” ● ● mrc.racing.com

VILL AGE LIFE

O

ne of Boris Johnson’s first actions upon becoming Britain’s Prime Minister was to inject a pile of cash into his country’s worsening retail crisis.

Whatever we may think of the PM’s Brexit policies, his curious PR antics and his unkempt hair, Johnson’s move to increase to £1 billion the British retailers’ fighting fund is to be applauded.

The UK High Street Crisis has left one in 10 shops empty. Towns outside the Greater London area are struggling to retain the kind of buzzy retail energy required for a healthy community life. If ever help was needed, now is the time.

I was reminded of this a couple of weeks ago when yet another “For Lease” sign went up outside one of my neighbourhood shops. It sent a chill down this shopkeeper’s spine. Another great retail idea turns to dust and an individual, a family, a partnership or shareholders are left wondering what happened to their dreams and their investment.

No government – state or federal – will use the word “recession” when referring to the economy’s current downturn. In retail, we have been using the R-word for months. A perfect storm of unfavourable circumstances – the federal election in May, rising

A local call to arms Grassroots retail is suffering a death of a thousand web clicks. household expenses, a shaky stock market, house prices dropping, and landlords who refuse to review rents for fear their properties will decrease in value – has shaken our sector to its core.

The “perfect storm” influences are out of our control, but there is one way we can all fight back to try to save our retail ecology – shop local.

Over the 10 years since we opened our Melbourne bookstore, we have battled the influence of Amazon and Book Depository. I have watched my fellow shopkeepers – the family pharmacy, the kids’ shoe specialist, the shop that sells soaps and candles, the women’s boutique – also come under siege from online (usually international) competitors. If people stop visiting their local shopping centres, or if they use stores simply to try out their potential online

purchases then return home to click-and-buy, then businesses like mine will fold.

Online shopping means fewer people visit our villages. The sense of community and connection in places like Gertrude Street, Fitzroy, or Rathdowne Street, Carlton, High Street, Ashburton or Church Street, Brighton, will disappear.

It’s time shoppers and retailers together embrace the principles of the Shop Local movement that has swept the US in the past decade, and its Save Our High Street UK equivalent.

We need to be reminded of the many joys that accompany a visit to your local trader. It is good for us, good for our children, and good for our older folk to feel a part of the street shopping experience.

And each day I watch customers come into our bookstore and browse the stock, chat with us, chat with one another, and enjoy the space. Can shopping from home provide that same personal connection?

Shops like ours are safe, inclusive environments.

We give back to our community. We host events. We donate to local schools and kindergartens. We employ local people. We pay local taxes.

Shopping local starts with all of us. Less clicking and more strolling is the key. Ditch shopping alone and opt instead to do it with others – and among others.

Me & My Mentor

GRACE STEVENSON & B RIT BIVIANO

Y

ear 12 student Grace Stevenson and art coordinator Brit Biviano share a passion for art, particularly painting. Brit first taught Grace in year 7 and since then he has worked with her to help her develop her artistic talent. He is currently supporting Grace, Fintona’s art captain, as she completes VCE art.

I always drew and painted as a child but during year 7 my family were on holiday in Phillip Island and we visited a gallery. I loved the paintings of beach scenes and decided to try to paint. My first acrylic painting was of a beach.

From there I’ve tried to paint every day and at Fintona I’ve also studied ceramics, design and textiles. For VCE art this year I’ve done an oil painting about children wanting to become adults.

So, I’ve painted a child in adult clothes holding a remote to symbolise fast-forwarding to adulthood.

Now I’m painting an image of adults whose inner child is trapped inside them.

As art captain, I run art club on Thursday lunchtimes. It’s mostly for years 5 and 6, and I help them with activities like making friendship bracelets and dream catchers.

Year 12 is quite stressful but Mr Biviano is always ready to offer support and motivation. If I feel I can’t do something, he and the other art teachers encourage me to keep trying – and they remind me that VCE is nearly over!

Mr Biviano has encouraged me to enter art competitions, like the Centenarian Project. I was paired with a centenarian whom I met and interviewed and then did a portrait of. I really enjoyed being part of that. This year I was also a finalist in the Lester Prize youth portrait competition.

When I leave Fintona, I want to study fine art and communication design and I will carry Mr Biviano’s advice with me – to not always try to be perfect and to be confident in what I can do.

BRIT SAYS ...

At school one of my mentors was an art teacher, Mrs Baker. Art was my passion and it allowed me to take ownership and express how I saw the world.

LEIGH HENNINGHAM

GRACE SAYS ...

B R IT B IVIA N O & G R AC E S T E V E N S O N

Art was the thing I felt most confident about. I then did a bachelor of fine art at Deakin University and, towards the end of that course, I thought about teaching. I liked the idea of working with students who were perhaps like I’d been at school. Outside of school I still paint and exhibit because it’s meditative for me.

I think art and design is one of the most important things a student can study because it teaches ways of seeing which then helps with problem solving. The practical aspects of art also make students work through a process and that involves self-reflection, which I think helps develop real world skills.

Students at Fintona explore sculpture, painting, print making, photography, ceramics, textiles,

woodwork, architecture and model-making. I hope we empower them to follow an idea through and to have the confidence to say: “This is how I see the world.”

Grace has shown an interest in art since I first met her. She would bring paintings from home and I could see her ability and have encouraged that. In year 10 she painted a still life of a vase and the pain she put herself through to get that painting the way she wanted it to be stood out to me.

Grace has such determination and will to excel and working with students like her makes my job so rewarding. I enjoy coming to work when I see students who give their art everything they’ve got – they remind me how lucky I am to be in this role. ● SARAH MARINOS IN PARTNERSHIP WITH

EDUCATION & INNOVATION

Taking the lead

SIENA COLLEGE

Long-serving Siena College principal, Gaynor Robson-Garth, is preparing to hand over the guardianship of the Catholic girls’ school to incoming principal, Elizabeth Hanney.

S

ince 2007, Gaynor Robson-Garth has steered Siena College and built the school’s reputation as a place that inspires young women to pursue academic excellence and to become lifelong learners. Instilling a quest for truth, fostering a sense of community and building leadership have also been integral to Robson-Garth’s time as principal.

At the end of this year the role of principal will pass to Elizabeth Hanney, currently principal at Ave Maria College. Hanney has worked in Catholic education and Diocesan roles for 26 years and is passionate about providing young women with a future-focused, faith-based education.

I remember my first staff day at Siena College. It was the Feast of St Thomas Aquinas. Our chaplain explained that Aquinas valued a search for truth wherever it may be found. I’ve always loved that aspect of Dominican education.

It embraces critical discernment, study and being open to learning and knowledge from whatever source – no question is forbidden. Our framework also includes contemplation, prayer, reflection, building community and relationships and education for justice.

Some of the things achieved during my time here are easily measurable, such as the capital works programs. Most recently we refurbished our beautiful convent. Less tangible elements have been building leadership and empowering young women.

I’ve loved being able to give the girls a daily lived experience of women in leadership.

A principal’s role is demanding but privileged. You continue to learn and take on new challenges and I’ve had the privilege of working with an extraordinary community and a rich faith community in our school. I will miss that.

I look forward to spending more time with my family and friends – although I’m not ready to give

up working life totally. I’d love to continue to contribute to education in some way.

I leave the College knowing it is in the hands of someone I know well and whom I hold in high regard.

ELIZABETH SAYS …

Siena has a strong reputation of unwavering commitment to excellence in learning and teaching and I was drawn to that, to the sense of community between the educators here and I’m a passionate believer in girls flourishing in an all girls’ environment.

I want to help girls develop a voice and agency and to have the capacity to stretch themselves in a safe environment. We work with young women at a very formative and critical stage of their lives when they come to know who they are through their relationship with their peers and the critical adults

in their lives, such as family and teachers.

We deal with the here and now but keep an eye on the future. I am thrilled when I see young women thriving and when I see teachers becoming the very best practitioners of their craft.

I look forward to the journey of discovery at Siena. I want to celebrate the great work that has gone before me and to build on that work. I want to listen and learn and then discern the way forward so Siena continues to be an outward-looking, future-focused school.

I will seek to ensure Siena students have a love of life and friends who go with them through the journey of life. We work to enable girls to have the confidence, capacity and curiosity to take all they learn and go into the world generously. Ideally, they will contribute to their own field of endeavour, lead, seek the truth and have a sense of the sacred in their life. ● SARAH MARINOS

Dr. Tony Stubbs, Eye Surgeon, says that just about anyone can have their vision restored and be rid of their glasses for most of the time. And this is without the use of laser surgery.

Dr Stubbs formerly at the Royal Victorian Eye Hospital who has worked with the Fred Hollows eye department at the Prince of Wales Hospital in Sydney, says he began his career through the inspiration of his father, Dr Maxwell Stubbs.

“My father was a pioneer in cataract implant surgery from 1963! He has now passed away but some of his patients still come in for a check-up. Not only is this inspirational, it also demonstrates that good surgery outlasts the surgeon,” Dr Stubbs says.

A specialist who helps people who have been advised they are unsuitable for laser surgery, Dr Stubbs is also committed to demonstrating that age, corneal distortion or astigmatism are no barriers to eliminating the need for glasses.

One of my best moments was treating a 12-year-old girl who was struggling at school because of poor vision due to congenital cataracts even with the use of thick glasses. Now 10 years later, she still has 20/20 vision without glasses. That inspires me.

“Seeing my patients’ bright smiles after surgery, as they stop squinting and can read without glasses, is definitely the best part of my job.”

No referral is needed and no out-of-pocket expenses are incurred for an assessment to enable all options available to be considered.
