I live close enough to the grand prix track to hear the Ferrari team screaming in Italian over the aria of an F1 engine, and I appreciate the sport in the same way I admire NASA for being able to send a rocket into space – the power and scope of human achievement. It’s 25 years since the race moved from Adelaide to Melbourne and Daniel Ricciardo – the only local driver on the grid at this year’s Formula One Rolex Australian Grand Prix – shares with us what it is like to, put simply, drive that insanely fast. Journalist Matthew Clayton met Ricciardo in Barcelona for this week’s feature. ●

he racing will be hot and the action off track even hotter with a podium finish for food, beverage and entertainment stretching from start to finish line.

In 2020, Melbourne celebrates the 25th anniversary of the Formula One Rolex Australian Grand Prix at Albert Park by partying like it’s 1996, with galleries from photo archives and historic car displays, food and drink menus celebrating a quarter of a century and a ’90s-inspired lakeside bar playing the best tunes from the past 25 years.

The Albert Park track will be home to all things Melbourne culture at M-Lane, where food and art will be showcased in a laneway-inspired experience.

The AUSGP Sessions will be centre stage in M-Lane, home to food trucks, street art, pop-ups and live music.

The Lounge is the place to be for Heineken Saturday, in one of the most exclusive and stunning settings at the Albert Park grand prix circuit.

Locksmith, from UK supergroup Rudimental, and Aussie pop sensation Starley will hit the stage.

Make your trip to the GP a family affair and make a pitstop at The Kids Corner. Mini Formula One fans can lap up the Porsche Kids Track Experience, have a kick at the AFL Auskick activation, bounce on to the trampolines and check out the Warner Bros activation zone. That’s all, folks!

If you want to do F1 in style, then there are corporate and luxury VIP packages for every taste and budget. Be seen in the stylish Marriott Bonvoy Lounge, complete with a premium grazing menu curated by the Atlantic Group, plus champagne, premium wines, soft drinks and espresso coffee.

THRILL of the CHASE

DOM A IN REV IEW

COVER STORY Australian Formula One driver Daniel Ricciardo has the courage and physicality of a fighter pilot.

After a racing detox, the only local driver on the grid at Albert Park is ready for every white-knuckle moment.

Wo r d s

But that’s not to say he’s flippant or ignorant of the dangers that are part of the mix of what makes F1 so daunting, yet so thrilling. “The dangers are always there in the back of your mind – anyone that says they’re not is lying,” Ricciardo says.

“You don’t deny the dangers exist, but we’re so used to it that it’s normal. But I certainly understand how it must be if you don’t have control.

For me, I’m the one in control, but I know that when my mum is watching, she doesn’t know that I’m going to go for an overtake or not, or if I’m going to do something safe or not.

“When I’m watching MotoGP or supercross on TV, I’m like mum is, the one riding every move and watching it like any other fan does.

“It’s always more nerve-racking not being in the drivers’ seat.”

It’s a pragmatic mindset that helps Ricciardo cope with the rigours of F1 pre-season testing, which comprises six days of on-track action at the Circuit de Catalunya near Barcelona each February.

Unlike other professional athletes who can kick, throw or hit a ball to keep their eye in during their

young gun Max Verstappen as the very best drivers of those who ascend to the rarefied air of F1.

Renault, desperate to return to the top of F1 after a long period in the wilderness, secured Ricciardo’s services for the 2019-20 seasons.

A glance at the Albert Park grandstands at last year’s Australian Grand Prix – resplendent in yellow after his legion of fans brought new merchandise to mirror his move – showed that, as international sporting A-listers go, few have Ricciardo’s reach, and fewer still are almost unanimously admired as he is for his results, and the relentlessly positive approach he takes to pursuing them.

Ricciardo’s chosen profession is one that comes with plenty of rewards, but is a workplace that carries undeniable risk.

Once Ricciardo is strapped into his RS20 machine and the visor of his helmet snaps shut, he has a disarming calm when speaking to his team over the two-way radio during races, relaying information about the behaviour of his car, the condition of his tyres or the tactics of his rivals with a succinct laid-back Australian patois.

“The dangers are always there in the back of your mind – anyone that says they’re not is lying.”

JOE ARMAO

D

aniel Ricciardo’s preparation for the next Formula One season starts as soon as the chequered flag falls on the year prior.

The 30-year-old returns to his native Western Australia, switches off his phone and heads to a farm a few hours away from Perth.

A strict training regimen is put on hold, dietary considerations are few, and his typically highlyregimented timetable is eschewed for days with no plans at all.

Stopping to a standstill is what helps a man who spends his life trying to be faster than anyone else hit the reset button to come back and chase the world championship he so desperately craves.

“Getting home to Australia from Europe is where I always feel the next season starts more than the current one ending,” Ricciardo says.

“From mid-December until the new year, I try not to be on any sort of schedule, no training program, no diet, nothing. My mind needs it as much as my body. Mentally, not being on a timetable is very liberating and a way that I regain the energy I need.”

If Ricciardo’s December detox doesn’t sound like the preparation required of an elite athlete, his January schedule makes you feel exhausted just thinking about it.

Once the calendar flips to the new year, Ricciardo, together with long-time friend and personal trainer Michael Italiano, throws himself into a brutal program that enables him to stay physically and mentally ready for a sport that crisscrosses the globe to race 21 times in eight months across any number of time zones, not to mention temperature and altitude extremes.

It’s a level of commitment that sees the elite in the sport compared favourably with fighter pilots for their combination of physical fitness and clarity of thought under extreme pressure.

Elite? Ricciardo has become just that after starting his F1 career in 2011, his early promise seeing him land a plum drive with Red Bull Racing in 2014 after compatriot Mark Webber called it quits.

In five seasons at Red Bull, Ricciardo won seven races including the prestigious Monaco Grand Prix in 2018, and regularly found himself in debates alongside six-time world champion Lewis Hamilton, four-time champion Sebastian Vettel and Dutch

off-season, F1 drivers return to their day job completely cold. For all of the weights, fitness work, enhancing of core strength and mind management that goes on away from the eyes of the public, F1 drivers can’t replicate the speed and sensations they endure at the race track until they’re back on it.

“The first few years for me, when I got back to testing, it was more of a mental thing, in that I wondered, ‘Can I still do this?’” Ricciardo admits.

“There was a bit of doubt sometimes, but you knew that was going to pass even if you felt it was there. Mentally, these days I can get ready to go from the start.

“On the second lap I did [in Barcelona], I went through turn nine – fastest corner on the track – completely flat-out. So my brain was right, but physically it’s a different story.

DANIEL RICCIARDO ON HIS HUNGER FOR A HOME PODIUM FINISH

“Your body is in shock and after two days I was as stiff as a board, but that’s normal. You can do as much physical training in the off-season, train the house down, but those first days are always going to hurt.”

With testing coming to a close in late February, all eyes and most minds immediately picture Albert Park, which has opened the F1 season for the majority of its 25 years on the calendar.

For Ricciardo, like Webber before him, the season-opener is one-third exhilarating, twothirds exhausting.

The well-wishes that come with being the only local driver on the grid are balanced with the endless stream of commitments that can make actually driving the car the most peace Ricciardo will find all weekend.

It’s an intensity that, in part, perhaps explains why no Australian has finished on the podium in their home grand prix. “I love Melbourne, but sometimes I wish Melbourne would love me back,” Ricciardo grins.

Looking further ahead than Melbourne, Ricciardo admits “there’s a lot going on” in 2020.

Out of contract at the end of the season, he’ll have no shortage of potential suitors.

Clouding the picture further is that F1 is set to undergo a regulatory revolution for 2021, with next year’s cars to look markedly different to their predecessors with slimline bodywork atop lowprofile tyres tethered to 18-inch wheels, and operated under a cost cap for the first time.

Trying to be in the right place at the right time with so much in flux is, understandably, high on Ricciardo’s wish list.

It’s a balancing act, but one Ricciardo feels well equipped to handle.

Come race day at Albert Park, he’ll be primed for that white-knuckle moment when he and 19 of his colleagues react to the starting lights going out, a split second that heralds the beginning of a new season.

What happens after that is difficult to predict and even harder to control.

But any success one of our most popular athletes enjoys will have had its genesis on a dusty far-flung farm, a place where this most authentic of Australian sports stars goes to rest up, reload, and ride again. ●

aced under iconic palm trees and with the city skyline in the background, the Formula One Rolex Australian Grand Prix is revving up for its 25th anniversary at Albert Park, and its unique Melbourne features are key heading into the next quarter of a century, according to Paul Little.

The billionaire Melbourne businessman is preparing for his first race as Australian Grand Prix Corporation chairman after replacing John Harnden in the hot seat, continuing a legacy forged by long-time chair, the late Ron Walker.

“It’s an amazing location, a very historic location.

Having a Formula One road race is quite unique, there’s less than a handful of them around the world,” Little says.

“We’re the envy of every grand prix around the world when you see the backdrop of Albert Park Lake, Port Phillip Bay and the city landscape, the palm trees – those things are genuinely unique and I know Melburnians appreciate how easy it is to get to the track. It’s more accessible than any other GP around the world.

“We put on a wonderful event and the viewing public really love the way it’s presented.”

The Australian Grand Prix shifted from Adelaide to Melbourne in 1996 and Little says this year’s milestone is a time to ref lect on a hugely successful era with an eye to the future.

“The development over the past 25 years has been incredible,” he says. “This year, ticket sales have been very strong, boosting tourism and creating employment, which is good for all Victorians.

“On a sentimental note, 25 years is a great time to celebrate. Long term, I’d like to see us extend our current contract beyond 2025, I think there’s a real opportunity to do that. We’re looking at being more cost effective and environmentally sustainable, two objectives of Liberty Media [who own the global event] we embrace.

“I think we can aspire to continue to enhance the event at Albert Park to make it a better experience for all enthusiasts. All those things are front of mind for us.”

Little, former chairman of the Essendon Football Club and Visit Victoria, believes the grand prix’s success largely comes down to the support of sports-mad Melburnians and Australians who love to get behind a local spectacle.

“Melburnians, Victorians, Australians, it’s amazing how we support our sporting events so strongly and so fiercely,” he says. “That’s one of the

of 50 years, so it’s something I do love and enjoy,” he says. “The opportunity to run one of the world’s best grand prix for me was too good to refuse, it was never in doubt.

“I’ve spent my career taking over businesses that need major surgery, not minor surgery, and I think from that point of view our grand prix is a great event, with a great team, it’s rated by the drivers and Liberty as being one of the best.” ●

STEVEN SIEWERT

WHO \ Chair

What do you hope to achieve by walking the VAMFF? I don’t often walk the runway, but this is for a very good cause and I’m excited to take part. The objective is to showcase different women of different ages and show all body types. So often the fashion runway is full of gorgeous-looking, ultra-thin girls, who don’t reflect the community.

I last walked for the Salvation Army runway in Sydney wearing a red dress all in the name of charity.

Describe your fashion style?

I’m a classic. I like plain colours and don’t wear a lot of patterns – that’s because I am influenced by television and my work there.

They used to tell us no prints and no stripes for TV; but of course it’s different now.

In my era we didn’t do that, which is why I got used to wearing solid block colours. It works better for me – when I look at pattern dresses and try them on, it just doesn’t look like me.

How do you shop for fashion?

I mainly buy Australian labels; I don’t buy overseas ones. Australian fashion brands understand our climate and colour palette for the season. I remember when I lived in England for three years and came back to Australia, all the colours were wrong – they were right for a London summer but not right for a Sydney one. We don’t do drab.

I love something bright. I do like Carla Zampatti’s label and know her well. We’re old friends and friends are there to support one another. I was running Cleo magazine when I felt we discovered Carla and it’s great to see the media still supporting her.

Your style tip?

Always have a comfortable pair of shoes. I’ve reluctantly put away my ultra-high heels because they don’t go well into older years. I have a few pairs at home I like to look at fondly, but I don’t put them on because I don’t want to trip and break my neck.

Do you have a fashion gripe?

It’s hard to find elegant eveningwear – both cocktail and evening gowns – as an older woman. Once you go past 50, most women don’t usually want low cut, skimpy and sleeveless garments – there’s plenty of them on the racks in all stores and boutiques, but very little elegant wear for older

JA N E R O C CA

women. It’s a common complaint. I find Melbourne caters better for the older woman than Sydney.

Does your job keep you awake at night? And best beauty tip to survive the day after?

I have the occasional sleepless night like most people.

I put on a good moisturiser and foundation the next day and it does the trick.

I think it’s the worry that shows on your face more than a sleepless night.

I tell myself when I’m in bed relaxing that when I wake it’ll be OK. I walk a lot and I think physical exercise gives your skin a glow.

You’re an inspiration to many; where do you get your inspiration?

I get it from life now. It’s here – it’s living in the moment. There is so much to do and see and learn. I’m always curious and keen to find out something I don’t know. I think life gives me my meaning.

As you become older you get a lot calmer because you have been through so many experiences in life.

I look back and assess how I handled something and know you can’t resolve things straight away – sometimes you need to sit and reflect. ● Ita Buttrose is patron of the Priceline Sisterhood Foundation,

The time-poor but beautyconscious can get a fix at a South Yarra bar with an indulgent twist.

I

t seems like a concept straight out of Sex and the City, but it’s right here in Melbourne: when you go to a beauty salon for a pampering treatment, wouldn’t it be more enjoyable with a glass of bubbles? That’s the concept behind the new Soak Bar and Beauty, Victoria’s first fully licensed beauty bar.

It’s the brainchild of co-owner and managing director Carlie Lansdown, who first learnt that alcohol and manicures could mix when she was a partner of the similarly themed Brooklyn Beauty Bar in Queensland.

with their girlfriends – so this way, they’re able to do it in one. At Soak, it’s a whole party scene where everything’s looked after. People always have that wow factor on their face when they enter, and we’ve even had clients sitting side by side who’ve become friends and come back for treatments together.”

Certainly, Soak’s fitout looks more like a glamorous bar than a beauty salon. There’s a 15metre manicure station with a natural stone benchtop, and, apart from serving drinks (including cocktails), there are nibbles to be had, with a menu that includes cheese platters.

But she’s always been entrepreneurial; at 20, she worked on formulating a beauty mask with a cosmetic chemist – Maskd – selling it at markets on the weekend. (When she sold that formula, she was able to buy into Brooklyn.)

Since its South Yarra opening, Soak has gotten off to a successful start: Fridays and Saturdays were almost booked out with parties in the lead-up to Christmas (the space can be hired for around 55 people or so).

Lansdown isn’t surprised. “A lot of women don’t have time to get their nails done and then go out

The range of services on offer includes brows and lash treatments, hair styling and makeup, waxing, facials and tanning.

And it’s not just women getting their manis and pedis; plenty of men show up too.

And why not? The space is soothing, with its hues of blue and apricot, and brushed brass fittings.

A mural of the female form – abstract shapes by artist Katie Ford – stretches across one wall, providing a backdrop to the lounge chairs where some treatments take place. (Rest assured there are two private beauty suites as well.)

And one doesn’t have to drink to delight in Soak: there’s already been a party for a 13-year-old, minus the alcohol, of course.

So far, despite some back-to-back treatments and an indulgent bar menu (Perrier-Jouet Grand Brut champagne, for starters), no one has drunkenly crawled to the exit.

The bottom line for Lansdown? “I love working with people and making them feel good.” ●

y yoga teacher, Maggie, says plenty of people who practice yoga just hang out for the 10-minute Shavasana at the end of class.

Me, I prefer Child’s Pose – or Balasana, as more evolved yoga practitioners call it.

When I first started at Maggie’s beautiful Sorrento studio, my greatest fear was what to wear.

Child’s Pose might be my favourite position, but what about the poor bugger behind me who looks up at the wrong moment and cops a view of my bottom’s up?

Worse: what if the old Kmart leggings have a split right in the derriere?

Like all fitness activity, yoga brings its own fashion anxieties. Tight clothing or loose? All black, or do I embrace my inner Woodstock child and try the tie-dyed leggings?

Now I am more settled with yoga, fashion matters less. As our class moves into Downward Facing Dog, Maggie turns up Calling The Lama From Afar (please note the spelling of lama. Otherwise your Spotify search will lead you to songs about woolly South American ruminants).

Etiquette of activewear It’s a dilemma: is gym gear fit for purpose and out in public?

Of course, many yoga practitioners do care what they wear. So, too, people who interval train, spin, run, box, use the TRX or the bungee cord, go to Tabata or Pilates, walk the Tan or tai chi in the park.

With so many yoga, barre, Pilates and other studios popping up around Melbourne, it’s no surprise the fitness clothing market is booming.

Last month nasdaq.com reported that Lululemon, the international activewear retailer, was “fastbecoming one of the hottest stocks on Wall Street”.

Meanwhile, global fashion search engine Lyst reports that searches for activewear items are up 59 per cent since the start of January.

The question of whether we should wear our gym gear for the rest of the day is a 21st century fashion

dilemma. In the 1960s, my mother and her gang took up 5BX, but only in the privacy of their bedrooms.

In the 1980s, aerobics took off but people always showered and changed immediately after their class. Given the whacky fashions (aqua knitted legwarmers, pink stretchy hairbands), one might say: thank God they did change.

What changed? Firstly, the arrival of low-impact fitness programs meant less intense exertion and less sweat and grime.

Secondly, designers like Lululemon, Lorna Jane, P.E Nation, 2XU and The Upside brought flattering, body-hugging fabrics and styles to their ranges which meant consumers could look good when they exercised AND when they stopped.

Instagram, thirdly, has played a big role in promoting cool activewear. Followers can now see an outfit in action, right on their iPhone. They can assess: Is the outfit flattering? Does it hold in all your “bits”? Will you be able to move freely?

Will my bum look big in this?

Finally, designers have introduced cool outerwear to accompany the fitness gear. People can now cover up their figure-hugging training gear with a loose vest or a track jacket, a pair of yoga pants – or Melbourne’s favourite, the puffer jacket.

Over her years as a yoga teacher, Maggie has seen many different clothing looks and trends.

Growing awareness Practical programs help students learn the true value of giving back.

F

undraising for worthy causes is a staple within school communities, yet even with the best intentions students often don’t fully understand where the money goes, or the impact it can have. At Haileybury, that changed last year when a clever social justice program was embedded in the curriculum.

Year 6 students across the school’s four campuses raised money to purchase solar lamps from a charity called SolarBuddy. They constructed the lights themselves and sent them to Cambodia, where onethird of school-age children live in homes with no electricity, and the other two-thirds experience frequent outages.

Letters were written to accompany the lights, and in due course there was a heartwarming reply in the

Haileybury post, accompanied by photos of Cambodian children reading those letters under their new lamps – 300 in all, which over three years will provide 657,000 safe study hours.

“What is great about this program,” says Haileybury’s head of teaching and learning, Middle School, Melissa Allen, “is that the students were studying energy poverty and were then introduced to the SolarBuddy program, and then they constructed the lights themselves.

“The majority of students at the start of the program didn’t understand what energy poverty meant. To look at the difference at the end of the unit, when they’d constructed the lights, written the letter and were sharing those photos with the Cambodian students, was amazing.”

Exploring fair and just relations between the individual and society has an ancient footprint in schooling, yet “social justice” continues to grow in student consciousness as schools strive to develop strong, resilient and intelligent young people.

Wesley College is this year celebrating 20 years of the “Clunes Experience”, where year 9 students spend eight weeks living in the historic gold mining town north of Ballarat. Along with the challenges of shared living that foster greater independence, Wesley has become a real part of the community.

“Our program is very firmly connected to the local town,” head of Wesley at Clunes Ben Marsland says. “That’s one of the key elements that sets it apart from other residential learning programs.

“We’re engaged in significant events during the year, from Anzac Day services to the Agricultural Society Show and the Booktown Festival each May. “As part of our communities rotation, students offer literacy and numeracy support at the primary school and kindergarten, and volunteer at local businesses, which is a great way of learning the characters and stories of the town.”

Social justice covers considerable ground. While current Clunes Experience students are supporting BlazeAid to rebuild fences destroyed in preChristmas fires at nearby Lexton, at St Aloysius College in North Melbourne there is a focus on recycling and renewable energy through “Code Green”, a new initiative being tackled by the school’s social justice group.

“We look at issues like homelessness, the sick, caring for creation and the environment,” says St Aloysius’ Catholic mission and mercy ethos leader Michael Chesser. “Drawing from the Catholic tradition of caring for everything and everyone in society, everyone deserves to be treated fairly, including animals.”

With social justice effectively embedded in the school curriculum, St Aloysius took the next step by forming a group that meets roughly fortnightly during lunchtime. Students from years 7 to 12 attend, forging bonds across year levels while discussing real-life issues, increasing their awareness of issues and connecting with bodies such as McAuley Community Service for Women. ●

Whole new world Parents and students face complex challenges.

T

he catastrophic events of the Australian summer illuminated the uncertainty experienced by young people already grappling with challenges that are unique to their generation. Selfevidently, parents in this age of rapid change are regularly asked to navigate uncharted waters, too.

Fortunately, schools have become increasingly proactive in the social justice space – not only in broadening students’ horizons, but in guiding parents through a landscape that can feel like a desert in which answers are as scarce as water.

At Korowa Anglican Girls’ School in Glen Iris, regular Pop-up Parenting sessions tackle issues ranging from the topical – the trauma of the bushfires or the unknowns of coronavirus, for example – to more niche concerns.

Keynote speakers are enlisted, and wellbeing staff engaged to help give parents practical tools for having important conversations with their children. A “don’t plan too far ahead” approach allows scope to react to specific needs as they arise.

she founded 17 years ago, her team works with around 20,000 teenagers each year. Miller speaks to groups of parents weekly.

She is certain there has never been a generation of parents who are more conscious of their role, and who largely share their children’s trepidation about an increasingly complex world.

“The keys are connection – trying to make a time and space to have that relationship, not to think it will just tick along without you being an active participant,” Miller says. “To listen, not just talk at.

“It can be illuminating and inspiring to take that opportunity to really sit and listen and learn, and not assume that we know everything.

Because we really don’t – particularly about this new world.”

Through programs she has engineered such as Walk The Talk, which builds awareness of domestic violence and women’s homelessness, and The School Toilet Project, Miller has been heartened by the enormous capacity and willingness of young people to make positive change.

“You can throw some of the most complex, dark social issues, and if

you engage them the right way they’re up for the challenge of being part of the solution.”

Much of Miller’s work with parents is “preaching to the converted”, those who are already well connected with their children. Others who are in crisis need support, not to feel like they’re being judged or shamed.

“When parents aren’t necessarily doing the best job, it’s not because they are crap parents, it’s because they’re struggling. When we know better, we do better.”

At Korowa, the drive that Lyneham sees in girls to engage with social justice fills her with optimism.

“There’s a great sense that they want to go out into the world and make sure this negative future doesn’t happen,” she says.

“They have this innate desire to be positive about the future.” ●

with managing their own resilience and building the capacity to be a person of good character,” Korowa’s deputy principal student wellbeing Kellie Lyneham says. “Obviously that’s designed to support them, but also to help the parents to be able to work with their girls.”

Korowa’s educational and development psychologist Michelle Andrews-Luke, who has written a guide called Calm Parenting, offers sessions at times tailored to suit all – mornings, afternoons leading into school pick-up time, evenings – while the school newsletter regularly provides links to SchoolTV, an online resource that gives parents information and practical strategies.

or Janeca Cabanayan, the range of experiences that the St Columba’s College justice program has exposed her to has a common thread.

They’ve taken her out of the classroom and out of her comfort zone, offering her that invaluable teaching opportunity that immersion in a different world brings.

Whether spending a fortnight living with Indigenous communities in northern Queensland, or volunteering at night at the St Vinnie’s Soup Van, the St Columba’s liturgy captain has felt the power of seeing society through her own lens, rather than on a screen or the pages of a book. Even more powerful have been the lessons learnt from speaking to people whose world is so different to her own.

“I learnt a great deal about Aboriginal culture just by talking to people from the communities we stayed with,” Cabanayan says. “We listened to their stories of the Dreamtime and were taught the significance of the language and environment – their relationship with the land.

“It was through the conversation, through being there, that had a lasting impact on my

Inspired by experience Taking students out of their comfort zones has enriched lives. understanding of the importance of these people and their culture.”

Much closer to home, on the streets of central Melbourne, Cabanayan’s horizons were broadened by an experience that ran deeper than simply providing the homeless with a hot meal or a toothbrush. Again, the awakening in her social justice education came from simply being present – and prepared to question, listen and learn.

“It was being with people, starting conversations with those seeking human interaction, where we were able to learn empathy and overcome the preconceived notions that hinder our interactions with others, especially the most vulnerable.”

Since she was in year 4, Sobi Arulampalam has been blessed to share many experiences with

Aboriginal students from the Yiramalay/Wesley Studio School in the Kimberley region of Western Australia. What they have given her underscores the value of an equal partnership between two diverse cultures and communities, committed to bringing positive change through education.

One friendship in particular, with a student from Yiramalay with whom Arulampalam roomed during the eight-week, year 9 Clunes Experience in the central Victorian goldfields town, was especially influential in her later becoming the spiritual life prefect at Wesley College’s Glen Waverley campus.

“I have noticed growth, particularly in my peers, acceptance and understanding of cultural differences through the programs involving interaction with Yiramalay students,” Arulampalam

says. “I’ve gained a heart to pursue a ministry which supports community awareness, respect and reconciliation for those who are maligned.”

Fellow student Dylan Sinclair has been emboldened by a range of initiatives – including volunteering with the Salvation Army and co-ordinating the school’s Christmas Giving Tree donation drive – to explore more deeply an interest in becoming a teacher. As the social justice prefect at Wesley Glen Waverley, his exposure to the work of UnitingCare through the Christmas Giving Tree program has left an enduring mark.

“It inspired me to do more community and service work,” Sinclair says.

After completing year 12 this year, he knows the social justice projects he’s been part of will have made him a better person.

“These programs help to teach us students the importance of giving back and the joy that can be found in doing so,” Sinclair says.

“It makes our students more compassionate and benevolent, traits which are both heavily soughtafter in the workforce.” ●

The Harvey Street Collection offers just that; two townhomes and two apartments designed for effortless living on one of Malvern’s most iconic streets two minutes’ walk from Malvern Gardens.

Designed by renowned Cera Stribley Architects and landscape architect Jack Merlo, the four large residences each have three or four bedrooms, multiple living areas and an individual lift from a private garage for two, three or four cars.

Developer Andrew Callaghan says the design pays respect to the premium location and provides the flexibility and privacy that people are used to in large houses with layouts that provide overflow space for children or grandchildren.

“People may have coastal or country properties and, while they want less city maintenance, they still want beautiful, large airy homes with seamless outdoor entertaining spaces.” ● LIZ McLACHLAN

If you’ve seen the movie Clueless, you’ll appreciate the grand yet comforting style of this manor opposite Cato Park.

“The columns date right back to 1972!” Cher proudly proclaims of her Beverly Hills home. Here they date to 1990, but this neoclassical air gives the property a certain distinction, now beautifully enhanced by renovation.

The owners, here for 12 years, love their pool and spa, the park and Tooronga Village shopping. To have the freeway within a minute’s drive has been a bonus.

So when it came time to let go, their beloved home was worthy of a makeover to bring it right up to the minute.

The two-storey house retains the glamour of 30 years ago, notably the marble hall and the curvy staircase with handturned posts. Arches with fluted columns make an elegant entrance to the living and dining rooms.

In every other respect, this is a new house within the solid walls of 1990.

Testament to that is in the kitchen. Open the Miele oven and microwave and find the manuals therein. The butler’s pantry gleams in white stone, the Bosch dishwasher awaiting its first load. On the barbecue terrace, a Beefeater barbie hankers to be a steak-holder.

The front garden faces north, and here the kids can run riot on the synthetic lawn.

At the front is a study or fifth bedroom with a Calacatta stone bathroom next door. Across the hall, the living room is snug in grey carpet with full-length mullioned windows to the front garden. The dining room looks over the pool.
