MIND OVER MATTER AT MEAL TIMES

The editor’s desk

KRISTOFFER PAULSEN

I have just finished a book called Love! by Zoe Foster Blake, the wife of this week’s cover star, Hamish Blake.

In her bright and breezy tome, navigating modern matters of the heart, Foster Blake – funnily enough – didn’t mention how her husband made her a replica of the White House from Lego and declared it a symbol of his affection, a la The Notebook. In this week’s cover story, Melbourne’s own Blake explains that cheeky exchange and shares the joy of his first solo hosting gig on telly – a new Nine show that marvels at Lego’s infinite possibilities. It’s one for the young and young at heart. ●

FIRST PERSON

““I am Ian Morgan ” … and I’m a brewer I’m from the United States originally and studied

at the University of Washington in a completely unrelated field. I was studying international relations with a focus on the Korean Peninsula, and in between my apartment and the library was a brewpub – a big-time brewery.

I discovered good beer there. It was one of those places where you could have the excuse of having a pint and catch up on your reading at the same time.

I finished that degree, met an Australian along the way and she dragged me over here in 2000.

We did go back to the States for a while and lived in DC, and I put my degree to some use.

But in 2007 we returned. I didn’t want to go back to a desk job and I was tossing up between archaeology or brewing. Having settled down in Melbourne to start a family, archaeology wasn’t really an option. So I started studying brewing, and eventually talked myself into a job at Holgate Brewhouse in Woodend.

I’ve been at Mountain Goat brewery in Richmond for four years, and head brewer for two. We have six brewers producing about 1.5 million litres of beer a year, so you have to be able to work well with others.

Personality and work ethic means a lot.

It’s quite a physical workplace ... you walk several kilometres by the end of the day. It’s not climatecontrolled and you’re ducking around tanks, squatting, standing up, reaching, lifting.

There’s some parallels with working as a chef or a cook, tasting along the way, having an open mind about new ingredients. There’s that creative element, and a science background is very helpful.

You’re manipulating a biochemical process feeding yeast; we’re basically yeast farmers.

A lot of people’s reaction is “you’ve got the dream job; you’ve got the best job in the world”. It’s not bad but it’s got its ups and downs. There’s a satisfaction in making something that’s going out to the public, and that people are hopefully enjoying. You get a lot of gratification out of seeing your beer on tap.

Of course you also have to have a passion for beer.

Every Friday we’ll usually carve out some time to try some other beers out there. It’s also important also to test your own product. So yes, there is a small aspect of drinking beer that’s a part of the job, but it’s serious. ●

COVER STORY Everything is awesome for Hamish Blake as he brings a childhood favourite to life on television.

The big build-up

H

amish Blake was in the US filming his Gap Year series in 2011 with his wife Zoe Foster Blake when he rediscovered his love of Lego. “When we were in America I made my wife the White House – it was something to do because we were living there while doing the show at the time,” he says.

“It kind of became this meditative thing for me to do at night, to keep working on the White House.

“I then told her it was like The Notebook, where the guy in The Notebook played by Ryan Gosling builds a house for the girl he loves, and I tried to convince her it was on the same level.

“I guess that was the first time I came back to Lego as an adult.”

Even the mention of Lego makes Blake nostalgic for his childhood in Melbourne’s eastern suburbs.

“We had this old blue Ikea tub full of Lego, for a good 10 years of my life,” he says.

“I think it’s probably pretty similar to a lot of people’s childhood.

“It was the go-to if there was nothing else to do.

“You were only allowed to watch half-an-hour of TV a day and it had to be the ABC, or whatever the rules were back in the 1980s.

“After we had already gone outside and kicked all the bark off the tree in the backyard, me and my brother were like, ‘let’s just get the Lego out and have another crack’.”

Hamish and Zoe are now introducing Lego to their own children, Sonny, 4, and Ruby, 1 – and for Blake, it’s like going back to his youth.

“I think you always maintain a healthy respect and admiration for the world of Lego, but you don’t

“Of course it’s rad to do fun stuff with Andy – it’s also great to do different things.” really get back into it until you’re a mum or a dad,” Blake says.

On the set of his new TV show Lego Masters for the Channel Nine, Blake is like a kid in a candy store.

The set at the Melbourne Showgrounds is a Lego lover’s dream, with 2.5 million pieces of Lego in all colours, shapes and sizes packed into a room dubbed The Brick Pit. It is from there that contestants from around the country will build their Lego masterpieces, with the winner taking out $100,000 in prizemoney.

It is Blake’s first solo role hosting a show without his longtime best friend and TV sidekick Andy Lee, and Lee has given Blake his blessing to go for it.

It’s apparent that Blake is a natural on his own, just as he is working with Lee. “I enjoyed hosting the show but it was not because I was looking to get away from Andy,” he says.

“I just enjoyed it for the creative challenge.

“Of course it’s rad fun to do stuff with Andy – it’s also great to do different things.”

B

lake is one of Australia’s most enduring and likeable television stars.

A Gold Logie winner in 2012 and still only 37, it feels as though Blake has been on TV screens and the radio for far longer.

For the former student of Caulfield Grammar, a career in the entertainment business was far from his mind.

“At high school, I won the maths prize and it was a foregone conclusion that I would become the dean before the end of my time at university,” he says.

“I would get my degree as a technicality, but it was presumed I would be a professor – that [idea] evaporated quite quickly.

“The thing about uni is you get there thinking you were so smart at high school, but then there are kids at uni who really loved their stuff.

“That wasn’t exactly me.”

It wasn’t all bad though for Blake at the University of Melbourne, where he was studying commerce and struggling to make all the lectures and tutorials. It was there that he met Lee, and before long they were working together at Melbourne’s

breeding ground for the stars, Channel 31. The rest, as they say, is history.

While Lego Masters sees Blake make his debut in a solo gig, he will soon return to work with Lee on a new series for Nine called Hamish and Andy’s ‘Perfect’ Holiday, which will see the boys once again hit the road, adding to their Logie-winning Gap Year series and Caravan of Courage specials.

The show will be produced by the pair’s own company Radio Karate, and filmed later this year.

It continues the TV legacy of Australia’s most popular on-air duo.

“I do miss him,” Blake says of Lee. “Our idea of a perfect holiday is to go and do silly things with each other overseas, so yeah, we are feeling pretty blessed.

“We’re chomping at the bit to get back out there together. Hopefully we will be travelling together and doing ‘Perfect’ Holiday for the next 50 years.” ●

Hamish Blake’s Melbourne Favourite cafe or restaurant …

Very tough, always keen to try new ones, but we have a local milk bar that’s the heart and soul of our neighbourhood. At the moment though, Capitano for pizza and a cocktail can’t be beat for a night out!

Place of quiet reflection ...

We live near the MCG so walking through the grounds of the ’G with my kids and or wife (or solo!) is beautiful. A lot of gum trees that close to the CBD is a very good thing.

Tales from the disaster zone LAST MONTH

W

e’ve all had them. Days when absolutely nothing seems to go right, no matter how settled and organised your life may otherwise seem.

The Full Catastrophe is a rollicking chronicle of the “stuff-ups, cock-ups and calamities” experienced by well-known Australians.

The tales of woe are pulled together by social researcher Rebecca Huntley and ABC broadcaster Sarah Macdonald who, for some years, have put on a show of the same name. It was Macdonald’s own full catastrophe that got the ball rolling.

The death of her beloved dad sent her into a black hole of despair. If that wasn’t enough, her mum fell ill and needed hospitalisation, and then she herself came down with a bad flu ... all while her husband was overseas and her kids were on school holidays.

As she concludes, “Sometimes you just have to roll in the deep, deep doo-doo of life”.

We hear from Today show presenter Deb Knight about a calamitous holiday to Japan involving a noisy apartment and a lost three-year-old.

Demographer Bernard Salt recounts the storm that enveloped him after his 2016 newspaper column in which he (tongue-in-cheek) referred to Millennials breakfasting on smashed avocado in cafes instead of saving for a house deposit.

“This thing went global, viral and feral almost immediately,” he laments.

Fashion designer Alannah Hill shudders at the recollection of a bad experience with a blocked toilet. Again, if you didn’t laugh you’d cry! ●

estaurant closures last month diverted the limelight away from their newly launched counterparts. We bid farewell to a Melbourne icon and a oneyear-old city venue that repeatedly received shining reviews. On the opening front, Sun Kitchen on Albert Park Lake is a reminder that Chinese immigrants have been nailing fine dining and service in Australia for as long as the Europeans, while three Japanese venues have joined the scene including a refined coffee and traditional snack house, a kitschy gyoza hot spot and the city's first “sushi boat” (like a sushi train, but it floats).

SUN KITCHEN \ ALBERT PARK

Gyoza is the signature dish here, fried until a crisp layer binds either 10 or 20 pieces together, with the option of melted cheese on top. Grab

a beer from the Japanese vending machine and finish with soft serve.

Must order: kimchi miso pork gyoza 287 Wellington Street, Collingwood

This Cantonese and Sichuan fine diner allows you to slurp traditional hot pot (including hot and sour noodles made from mung beans) with the cooling view of Albert Park Lake, and wine from a selection of 888 bottles.

utumn means a big change in what’s in season, with the weather in transition too – not too hot, not too cold. It’s nice to change things up and have something hearty, but not too filling or heavy like a stew or curry.

Crab cakes can be either a snack, perfect for entertaining, or a meal. The potatoes make them more substantial, but the crab still reminds you of warm summer days sitting by the garden.

I’ve made this recipe gluten-free because it was easy enough to swap out the panko crumbs for rice crackers. It’s a versatile recipe, so if you want more crab than potato, you can simply reduce the potato and add more crab meat. And, vice versa, of course.

The herbs are also interchangeable, so feel free to add in any herbs or spices you like. You can give it a more Asian flavour by using herbs such as Vietnamese mint, kaffir lime leaves, lemongrass and Thai basil. ●

Waters, 72, who is about to head on tour to showcase Dylan’s classic songbook, says: “Donovan became England’s answer to Bob Dylan, they both played in that same folk, poetrystyle and it was because of Donovan I went out and tracked down Dylan’s work in the first place.

“It was Dylan’s Blowin’ In The Wind that really got me, as it did most people,” says Waters, who

“I was into rock, pop and blues but loved the folk movement. Dylan had an awesome gift for lyrics. I remember the swirling stream-ofconsciousness lyrics of Mr Tambourine Man – it was like an abstract painting, you could make your own image out of his words.”

Waters performs with Glenn Shorrock, Wendy Mathews, Doug Parkinson and Wes Carr to reinterpret some of Dylan’s songs in

Waters, who lives in Sydney with wife Zoe Burton and their three children – Archie, 16, and 12-yearold twins Rusty and Gloria – says age has hardly slowed him down.

“A new marriage is like a second lease of life and a new family of children has done wonders for me,” says Waters, who has two adult children aged in their 40s from his first marriage.

“Most people think turning 50 is a sign to slow down or that you’re going downhill,” he says.

When Waters arrived in Australia in the late ’60s, he immersed himself in the world of theatre, taking on rock opera roles in Hair The Musical and Godspell.

In the ’70s he was a familiar face on Play School alongside Benita Collings and later Noni Hazlehurst, and won households over almost a decade ago with his role in TV comedy drama Offspring Offspring, playing Nina’s father Darcy Proudman.

“There was a time in the early ’70s where I got lured into the world of screen acting and I enjoyed it; it was a crossroads for me and I pursued it,” Waters recalls.

Food for thought

W

hen it comes to nutrition, I like to focus on the big picture – am I eating real food?

Am I eating three quality meals a day?

Keep your portions in check. Stay hydrated. It’s all about balance.

However, my inquisitive nature and growing experience in this space compels me to always look for those other one percenters. This is a recent one that was taught to me by our 28 nutritionist, Steph Wearne, and it really does make a difference.

There’s a lot to be said about the fact that HOW we eat, not just what we eat, can have an impact on our health. Too often these days we are eating when we’re stressed and eating when we’re distracted.

So many of us eat while scrolling through Instagram, have our lunch at our desk as we write emails or drink our smoothie on our way to work.

As a society that is always on the go, we rarely sit

down and eat mindfully. What you probably don’t know is that eating this way can actually compromise your digestion.

If you eat while you’re feeling stressed, it can activate your sympathetic nervous system which is responsible for our “fight and flight” survival response. This tells your body not to prioritise digestion because blood flow needs to be directed to other areas of the body, which will allow us to either fight or flee from the stress.

From reducing saliva production to decreases in stomach acid, which are essential factors in the digestion process, our ability to digest, absorb and reap the benefits of our food (even healthy food) is compromised.

To help with digestion, I encourage you all to try to slow down and pay attention while you are eating.

Not only does eating mindfully active the

internal hunger and satiety signals.” parasympathetic nervous system, which directs blood flow back to our GI tract to allow us to digest our food properly, but it can also help prevent overeating. Research has shown that mindful eating can help you feel more in touch with your internal hunger and satiety signals.

Some common contributors to mindless eating can be: ■ not recognising the difference between hungry and non-hungry eating; ■ not stopping to listen to what your body signals are telling you; ■ confusing hunger and thirst; ■ allowing yourself to get too hungry and/or eating too fast; ■ eating an amount that should make you feel full, but not feeling satisfied; ■ eating in case you get hungry later;

eating in response to emotions; and, ■ eating to ease boredom or tiredness.

A good way to practice mindful eating is to pick a snack – a piece of dark chocolate works well – and take at least two minutes to eat it.

Eat slowly and pay attention to the smell, taste, texture and flavour. You should also be sitting with no distractions to steal your attention – so put the phone down! This might seem wishy-washy but trust me, it really does have a positive impact on your eating habits.

I found that the real benefit I got from this practice was that I developed a better relationship with food. I slowed down, grazed less and found structure as my three daily meals have been clearly defined. ● ■

EDUCATION & INNOVATION

Off to a flying start

S

ince it first opened its door in 1893, Melbourne Girls Grammar has been on a mission of “empowering tomorrow’s women”.

One way in which the Anglican school is doing this is by placing a firm focus on innovation, particularly technology-based learning and skills. “We are future-focused and committed to inspiring our Grammarians and equipping them with the values, knowledge and skills to be ready to make their mark on the world,” says principal Dr Toni Meath.

Supporting this, the school has a strong STEM program that builds competencies in solving design, systems and computational problems.

“Our program fosters budding futurists who are enamoured by what could be, and who are excited to be an enterprising part of making their visions of the future become a reality,” says Ivan Carlisle, director of STEM and a former engineer.

One of the most popular aspects of STEM at the school is drone technology. Students in years three and four participate in the Queen Bee Flying Program. Last year, it gained national recognition and earned Melbourne Girls Grammar a place in the list of Australia’s “most innovative schools”.

Students learn how to operate indoor drones and work towards obtaining the school’s own version of a drone licence. The program also builds electronic and computing programming skills. The drone program is also extended to older girls at the school as part of the school’s Careers Inspiration initiative.

Melbourne Girls Grammar has partnered with the Institute for Drone Technology to provide students in years nine to 12 with an opportunity to complete their Remote Pilot Licence (RePL).

The qualification is certified by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority and allows the licence holder to fly drones for commercial purposes. Last year, six students attained their licence after studying aviation theory and regulations, learning how to professionally pilot drones, and passing a tough theoretical exam plus a practical flying exam.

“Melbourne Girls Grammar has shown great leadership in fostering a deep interest in STEM among the girls,” said Dr Joel Spencer, chief executive and co-founder of The Institute for Drone Technology. “The skill to operate a drone will be a great advantage to these girls as they move forward with their studies, their lives and their careers.”

Wo r d s

Year nine student Sophie Paterson, 14, became the youngest female remote pilot in Australia. The students who earned their RePL said it challenged preconceived ideas that aviation was a male domain.

Some also said they intended working with drones in their future careers.

“The percentage of female pilots at Australia’s major airlines ranges from about 4 to 9 per cent, and women make up as little as a quarter of the total STEM workforce. Soon, I aim to get my first commercial job involving drones, which could possibly extend into a full-time career,” said year 11 student Olivia Perkins.

Carlisle says the school will continue to work with drone technology. “While gender imbalances do persist in some areas of STEM, our students at Melbourne Girls Grammar are critically reflective of this reality and are empowered to have the confidence to pursue what they are passionate about,” he says. “Experiences such as the RePL reinforce that attitude for our students that they can do anything that they set their minds to.” ● ● mggs.vic.edu.au

Sacré Cœur

Australia has one of the highest rates of computer presence in schools in the world. And while I wait for the kids to put down the screens, we are all collectively waiting to see the impact of tech in the classroom.

Emily Hehir has taught at a high-performing regional private school with no technology, let alone iPads; an inner-city state school, where they were mandatory; and a suburban independent school in transition. Her verdict?

“Most of the time it’s not being done well,” she says. “In education there is a lot of idealism, but when you’re actually in it, you have to compromise all the time.

“Kids have got to first of all bring it, then charge it, log in, connect to the WiFi, have sufficient bandwidth, find the right links, not smash the screen, not have distracting games ... it becomes the tail wagging the dog. The learning only comes after the iPad.” A recent OECD report, Innovating Education and Educating for Innovation: The Power of Digital Technologies and Skills, confirms Hehir’s feeling

that there is a “wedge between expectations and reality” when it comes to tech in the classroom.

The massive report concludes that “despite the huge potential of digitalisation for fostering and enhancing learning, the impact of digital technologies on education itself has been shallow”.

What’s worse, it warns that “technology may do more harm than good to the teacher-student interactions that underpin deep conceptual understanding and higher-order thinking”.

So, does this mean we should turn off the WiFi and bring out the chalk?

Director of ICT at Brighton Grammar Sandra Maher says we need to teach kids how to use technology. “Many parents go, ‘Oh our kids are digital natives’ because they’ve grown up with a laptop or Xbox, and as such, don’t think they need technology in the classroom’,” she says.

“This is especially true of the iPad kids. I can spot them a mile away. They don’t know about right clicks, menus, ‘function’ keys and so on. They haven’t developed all the other skills they need to be aware of.”

PRESHIL THE PROGRESSIVE ALTERNATIVE An International Baccalaureate World School

Scholarships for Creativity and Innovation for entry into Years 7 or 11 now open.

We encourage students seeking an opportunity to further their imaginative and independent thinking in any avenue of learning. We ask that applicants submit a portfolio of work displaying evidence of creativity, innovation, imagination and their ability to contribute to the Preshil community.

Applications close 31 May, 2019.

Preshil is a candidate school for the IB’s Primary Years Programme (IBPYP) and an authorised school for the IB’s Middle Years Programme (IBMYP) and Diploma Programme (IBDP).

For Maher, fundamentals like handwriting and reading printed books remain critical, but iPads can enhance learning. “We have fantastic engagement with iPads in the lower primary school,” she says.

“We have ‘Osmo’ kits that attach to the iPad for spelling. They’re like an iPad stand with a tiny camera, and it has little [letter] tiles. The camera senses when the tiles are in the correct place, and gives instant feedback and satisfaction. Isn’t that more fun?”

It certainly sounds fun, but as a high school teacher, that’s my whole problem. Screens such as iPads are way more fun than my lessons.

“They can be a distraction, absolutely,” says Maher, arguing the importance of only using technology only “if the activity warrants it”.

Despite her misgivings, Hehir agrees. She says we need to foster a climate in which teachers can “use their judgment” as to whether they need to use the tools, and “whether to work in groups, or not.

Whether to use silent work, or not.”

“Using iPads has to be a deliberate choice, not the default”. ●

New, and blissful with the sweet scent of oak, this twostorey house opens to a pergola terrace with a manicured lawn beyond. So far, so chic. But what if the humans within want to go wild? Smell the eucalyptus! Tramp through mud!

Hear lorikeets descend in shrieking rapture on a flowering gum tree!

It happens, and that’s why canny families are drawn to this little-known corner of Camberwell. It’s zoned for Camberwell High, is on the No.70 tram route straight to town yet has Wattle Park – that native wilderness – just across Warrigal Road. Dower Street is a minute’s walk from the Riversdale-Warrigal corner, making this a strategic spot for mixing urban life with the pleasures of a tree change.

This property is designed with long-term family life in mind. Three living areas and five bedrooms (or four and a study) present awesome options from tots to teens and into young adulthood.

The central hall – wide, with engineered-oak floorboards – sets the theme of discreet luxury that is the signature of this house. To the right is a carpeted double bedroom with a walk-in wardrobe and a twin en suite with a shower. Across the hall, the study can be set up as an office, homework area or fifth bedroom as needed. There’s a bathroom down the hall.

The ground floor has two living areas. One is a carpeted lounge that can double as a home cinema. The oak-floored living and dining area (with fireplace) has stacker sliders to the terrace and landscaped garden, creating a flexible indoor-outdoor space for parties. Cooks can unleash the
