EDITOR’S DESK Each week at The Weekly Review, we aim to bring you stories that inspire. We strive to shine a light on the best and brightest artistic talents, entrepreneurs, sportspeople and community leaders – those who set a shining example of the very best of humanity. But, every now and again, we come across a story that stands out above the pack. This week’s cover star, Dylan Alcott, has never known what it feels like to walk or run. Confined to a wheelchair since infancy, he has not let his condition define or limit him. Instead, he has become an international champion in wheelchair basketball and tennis, has crowd-surfed at music festivals, travelled the world as a sought-after motivational speaker and is now embarking on a new career as a radio DJ. For a revealing glimpse into what drives Australia’s coolest Paralympian, read Peter Wilmoth’s interview inside. ●

“Events don’t dictate what happens in your life, it’s how you perceive them.” PETER WILMOTH MEETS PARALYMPIAN, DJ & AUSTRALIAN OPEN CHAMPION DYLAN ALCOTT

ylan Alcott’s interest in music started when he sang in the Australian Boys’ Choir, although his time as a choirboy was short-lived. “I started playing sport, my voice broke, and I forgot how to sing,” he says. But his love of music was never far away, which is why he is so happy with his latest gig presenting on triple j. His passion for music has taken him to music festivals around the world, including Coachella in California, and Meredith and Splendour in the Grass in Australia. “I love them all,” Dylan says. “That’s how I got discovered by triple j. I made a bit of a name for myself six years ago when I crowd-surfed at a music festival at Soundwave. People grab the chair and get you up. I’ve only fallen a couple of times.” Dylan has had plenty of remarkable festival experiences. “I got on stage with my favourite hip hop group, the Wu-Tang Clan, and rapped with them at Meredith in 2014,” he says. “I got on stage with Queens of the Stone Age at Soundwave and went cruising around with them. It was cool, mate.” The 26-year-old started at triple j in January, hosting weekend afternoon music shows and doing guest spots in the breakfast timeslot on Mondays and Fridays. “I’ve been a big triple j fan for a long time,” he says. For Dylan, the role isn’t only about music. “It’s been a goal of mine since I was a little kid to change the perceptions of people with disabilities, and the best way to do that is through the mainstream media,” he says. “How many people do you know with disabilities in the mainstream media? We need to break down those barriers and I’d love to be that guy.” Dylan was born with a tumor wrapped around his spinal cord, which was cut out when he was two days old. The operation saved his life but damaged his spinal cord, leaving him a paraplegic. He has been in a wheelchair all his life. He spent his first three years in and out of hospital, having 15 operations. “Touch and go,” he says. “Pretty sick, yeah.” They were tough years for his parents, 8 THE WEEKLY REVIEW \ JULY 19, 2017

Martin and Resie, and his older brother Zack. “My whole family has been incredible.” “When I was a kid … imagine how hard that was for Mum and Dad. They never wrapped me in cotton wool like most kids with disabilities. When I said to my mum and dad I wanted to get the train to school when I was 15, I’m sure they were thinking ‘s--- no’ but they let me do it because my mates were. I’m sure mum was freaking out. But that’s how I got friends and became normal. I really appreciate that they did that. “I was travelling the world playing tennis when I was 15. I’m sure they were scared of that as well. For them to do that – good on ’em.” Dylan attended Brighton Grammar, where he and another boy were the only ones in wheelchairs. The school adapted to be wheelchair friendly. “We were, I guess, the test dummies,” he says. “They ramped everything, put elevators in the new buildings. They were great for me.” Apart from the occasional comment, Dylan was surrounded by a great community of kids. “I’ve got the best group of mates in the whole world,” he says. “There was a bit of stuff when I was 12 or 13. Some kids say some dumb things that hurt your feelings a bit. Some kids would call me a cripple. It was tough. But once you realise that for every d---head that gives you a hard time there are hundreds of other legends worth hanging out with, I was fine.”

t 11 he took up wheelchair tennis and at 15 started playing wheelchair basketball. In year 12 he won gold at the 2008 Paralympics in Beijing. “To win a gold medal while you are at school … not many get to do that.” He is the youngest wheelchair gold medallist, and went on to win gold for tennis at last year’s Rio Paralympics. In January, he won his third consecutive Australian Open title in wheelchair tennis, at Rod Laver Arena. Dylan says it’s a great time to be a Paralympian. “Ten years ago you had to pay to play, to travel around the world and play tennis. Now I’m fully funded by Tennis

Australia. But it’s still got a long way to go. Australian Open winners get $3.6 million. I won this year and got $12,000.” He says there’s more interest in the sport now, and notes that 5000-6000 people bought tickets to watch his match at Rod Laver Arena. “It used to be no one gave a crap. Now the sponsors are getting a return on investment because people want to watch us – they know not only do we have good stories, but we are elite athletes who are training our arses off, putting on a show for crowds. It’s a beautiful time to be involved and I don’t sit here and complain because I know that generations past got nothing.” While travelling the world playing sport, he achieved high marks at school and completed a commerce degree at University

PICTURE \ MICHAEL RAYNER of Melbourne. “I’m a closet nerd as well, so I made sure I gave academics a good run.” Away from music and sport, Dylan is busy. He is also a motivational speaker, doing gigs in Hong Kong, Fiji and across Australia. “I’m a pretty light-hearted guy who takes the piss out of himself and people respond to that,” he says. “When you get messages saying ‘Your outlook on life helped change my life’, that’s amazing.” He says there’s a long way to go in awareness of disability. “I was getting a coffee the other day and a lady came up and congratulated me on getting my own coffee. Her expectation of me was that I sat at home and had a carer and couldn’t leave the house. She’d never been exposed to someone with a disability. It’s not her fault. We need to expose more people so they realise we’re

normal people, too. I just happen to be in a wheelchair.” In March he launched Get Skilled Access, a training organisation working with Paralympians to train business and government employees how to treat customers with disabilities. “We want to make people proactive rather than reactive,” he says. “At the moment, if you travel and you go into a supermarket or a bank there’s that freak-out moment when they don’t know what to do because they either don’t want to offend us or don’t know how to approach us.” He has also launched the Dylan Alcott Foundation to help young people with disabilities to fund and mentor and “eliminate the barriers to get involved”. “Everything I do is about what I like

to call normalising disability,” he says. “People think people with disabilities are unemployable, undateable, don’t travel, don’t go out, don’t have a life, and that puts limitations on what people with disabilities can do. You can have a girlfriend, you can have a job, you can travel, you can do everything that an able-bodied person does, except maybe walk up stairs.”

e says his positive outlook is “part innate, part learned”. “You’ve got to have that inner drive to do things,” he says. “At 13, 14, I had two years when I sat at home and I was really embarrassed by my disability. I didn’t tell too many people [how I was thinking], I just got over that and thought I need to be more proactive; I need to be the catalyst

Two of the biggest legends (above) and the most fun DJs to see live. Period.

for change in my own life, get out there and meet friends, girls … “Events don’t dictate what happens in your life, it’s how you perceive those events. Whether it’s a break-up, somebody passing away, losing a job, being in a wheelchair, it’s not the event itself, it’s how you bounce back and perceive it and move on. “I was able to look at that part of my life and say, ‘It’s a part of me, it doesn’t define who I am’. So I’m going to go out there and see what I can do with it, and I realised that I can do anything.” ● pwilmoth@theweeklyreview.com.au LISTEN » Dylan Alcott presents sports on triple j Breakfast on Monday and Friday, and hosts Weekend Arvos, from 2pm on Saturdays & Sundays.

LOOK OUT FOR …

The Block returns to Channel 9 on July 30 at 7pm.

(MICHAEL RAYNER)

ulian Cress puts aside his hard hat and looks at the activity unfolding around him. This is the 13th season of The Block, the television phenomenon he co-created – and it’s the biggest project yet. Five dilapidated period homes have been trucked in from suburbs across Melbourne to a 3000-square-metre site in Elsternwick. Contestants will transform each building from a tangle of gaping holes, wires and outdated decor into stylish family homes. Julian, the show’s co-creator and executive producer, sips a lemon and ginger tea at the on-site McCafe while an army of fluoro-vested tradies dig, hammer and drill around him. “We’ve never done family houses but most of our audience is families, so it feels right,” he says. “Years ago there was a Presbyterian girls’ school here and as soon as I saw this site I wanted to do something like this. I drove around Melbourne looking for these old properties. One was a 1920s dairy farm in Brighton. It was going to be bulldozed. Now it will survive for another 100 years as a family home – that’s special.” The site was bought in November and the houses were found over summer and trucked in by March. Filming began in April. Julian is on site seven days a week for 12 hours a day. In 2002, Julian was working as a producer

at 60 Minutes when he developed the idea that would become The Block. Along with co-creator David Barbour, he persuaded Channel 9 to commission the show. “There were a lot of shows about renovating but they were always professional designers showing people how to do something. We thought, ‘why not watch real people renovating?’. That led to the idea of buying a block of apartments, putting real people in there, and following them. I’m told we’re the longest-running reality TV series in Australian history – I never expected that.” The Housing Industry Association estimates The Block has generated more than $3 billion in home-renovation-related sales. With contestants spending countless hours on site for three months, the McCafe has been a popular addition. Made from a shipping container, it has seating and a professional barista. “A show like this runs on adrenalin – and coffee. The contestants … use Portaloos and camp showers, so this is an oasis.” Next stop for The Block is Gatwick Hotel in St Kilda. “A highlight for me is the legacy we leave behind,” says Julian. “When MasterChef is all over, you are left with a bunch of dirty dishes, but we leave beautiful homes.” ● SARAH MARINOS smarinos@theweeklyreview.com.au

Ask the wine guy

THE VINE

hat’s the difference between Q Wvintage and tawny port? They start life the same way – grapes A are picked, fermentation begins and when the winemaker is happy with the

W H AT T O D R I N K W I T H B E N T H O M A S

balance between fruit flavour and sugar sweetness, the fermentation is stopped by fortification (the addition of a spirit). It’s then aged in oak and bottled to make a vintage wine, or left in the barrel to age and become a tawny. Vintage fortifieds smell and taste like grapes but tawny has caramel and nutty characters from the evaporation in the barrels that concentrates and oxidises the wine and changes the colour from red to tawny. ● GOT A QUESTION?

Bleasdale (Langhorne Creek) $69; 18.5% Bleasdale has maked fortified wines in Langhorne Creek since the 1850s. Its tawny is aged in the rafters of the winery and is made from grenache and shiraz. The components in here are at least 18 years old. It smells and tastes like brandy snap biscuit, raisins and nutty rancio, with a thick, almost oily texture that delivers a wine of balance that is sweet and vibrant. ● Enjoy with \ Stilton cheese

Chapel Hill Fortified Shiraz 2015 (McLaren Vale) $25; 18%

With raspberry, earth and cherry aromas, this is clearly a wine that’s grenache first, fortified second. It’s smooth and viscous in the mouth, with flavours of raisin, spice, berries and a hint of plum. Along with the texture, there’s tannin – quite a bit of it – adding structure that balances an underlying sweetness. ●

The smell of McLaren Vale shiraz hits immediately – blackberry, spice, dark chocolate and dark cherry – and the aromas are dialled up to 11. It’s similar on the palate, as bold blackberry, aniseed, prune and earth flavours hit with intensity before tannins take over, wrestling this hedonistic wine back into balance. ●

These days, she’s head chef alongside Matt Stone at Oakridge Winery in the Yarra Valley. As head of pastry, she strives to minimise waste and draws inspiration from native Aussie ingredients.

(MICHAEL RAYNER)

THIS WEEK I’M …

JO LOVES … CHOCOLATE HAUPIA

THE YARRA VALLEY \ A gin and tonic at Four Pillars Distillery and lunch at Meletos.

HANA \ CITY

BRUNCH \ The food at Babajan in Carlton is really tasty and colourful. The service is always welcoming and coffee is great. I’m scared to tell because I want it all to myself.

ana is not just a poke restaurant. Opened by Matteo Bruno of Meatball & Wine Bar, it’s the sort of place I’d celebrate a birthday or kick-start a Saturday night with some girlfriends. Besides, Hawaiian chef Mario Manabe is doing a lot more than raw fish rice bowls. Moreish tapioca crisps with sashimi salmon, a hint of yuzu and avocado cream are a good place to start, along with picked crab and tempura apple canapes. Tender octopus terrine resembles thinly sliced charcuterie, while cubes of tuna and watermelon mimic each other, brightened with coconut and lime. Another standout is sea asparagus, a succulent served with charred vegetables and optional Wagyu. I’d go back just for haupia, a traditional Hawaiian dessert made from coconut milk, in this case a silky chocolate version with coconut lime crumb for extra crunch. Hana is downright fun. There’s an exaggerated tropical theme, with ferns, pineapple bag hooks and neon signs that paint the room fluorescent pink. Pun lovers are also in for a treat: the cover of the drinks menu reads: “How to get Lei’d”. And with such good-looking waiters … actually, it’s probably best I stop there. ● slevin@theweeklyreview.com.au

GO-TO RESTAURANT \ Lee Ho Fook. It’s interesting and delicious. Always a crowd-pleaser. Great wines, too. INDUSTRY IDOL \ Michael James (Tivoli Road Bakery) is one of the hardest-working chefs I have worked with. He is amazing under pressure, creative, cares about the environment and treats people with respect. NATIVE AUSTRALIAN INGREDIENTS \ They are all so interesting, but I love Davidson plums. They are incredibly sour. AVOIDING FOOD WASTE \ ● Use paper mushroom bags (instead of plastic) at the supermarket when getting fruit and veg; ● Try to plan a few meals in your week. Then you don’t end up with half-onions and carrots lying around; ● Have a good dry store filled with sauces, grains, ferments and spices. Then you can always jazz up sad-looking veg into killer meals. ●

MEAT SKEWER & PITA BREAD

EATING \ A $42 burger from brand new Bosozoku off Chapel Street in South Yarra. Y It’s called the Big Lobster BLT, but other Japanese-inspired burgers start at $10. There’s also sake, karaoke and Nintendo rooms in the 200-seater. It’s weird, and I like it. ● DRINKING \ I feel self-righteous drinking Remedy Kombucha. I like how it counters the way I treat my stomach. The company has just released streamlined cans and I have a pile of empties on my desk – it’s the perfect drink for Dry July. ●

INSTAGRAMMABLE COCKTAILS

CHEEKY NEON

WATCHING \ I stumbled across Mr. Church on an international flight. It’s a recent film about Henry Joseph Church (Eddie Murphy), who is hired to help a single mother diagnosed with cancer. He wins over little Charlie with his food, but becomes so much more than a cook. I might, or might not, have cried. ●

They call this their Shakespeare shirt, $595, and its knitted knicker, the Noble, $495. In October, both will be delivered to a rack near you, just in time for summer 2017/18. ● macgraw.com.au

The Paris end of Collins Street was chock-full of global logos when Marco Siracusa searched for his new menswear S store’s ideal address. Not a crack was left for the mega-luxury temple of streetwearto-suiting. Which was lucky, because he nipped around the corner to uber-cool Flinders Lane and found this spectacular L Edwardian building. E Marco had Cox Architecture gut and refit its loft-like space in sleek stone and metal, then hired luxury buyer Wendy Jiang to vet some of most desired brands in the world: Lanvin, Ambush, Resolute Denim, OAMC, Marni, Junya Watanabe, Jil Sander, Vivienne Westwood, and dozens more. Barely a month after opening, Masons was already clocking steady traffic of in-the-know locals, cashed-up tourists and curious passers-by, sometimes popping in just for a squiz at its preposterously plush change-lounges and whisky bar (yes, whisky bar!). ●

Hot ticket

t 18, Miles Gregory was studying to become a lawyer. A night at the theatre changed all that, kickstarting a lifelong career as an actor, director and diehard Shakespeare fan. Now he’s hoping to spread the Bard love by bringing to Melbourne a working, historically accurate replica of the famous Globe Theatre where Will’s plays were first performed. “A lot of people find Shakespeare boring and I think a lot of the time we’re taught at school that Shakespeare is boring,” Miles says. “But everyone who attends the Globe will understand for the first time why Shakespeare is the greatest writer in the Western literary canon. They’ll understand the magic of the shows.” His Pop-Up Globe theatre has already enjoyed two tremendously successful seasons in Auckland. Melbourne marks its first international appearance, with a three-month residency planned in the park beside Sidney Myer Music Bowl – a patch rechristened Shakespeare Gardens for the occasion. At three storeys high and 27 metres wide,

the Globe can accommodate 900 punters, a large chunk of whom will stand for the length of each performance. Dubbed groundlings, these brave souls will be able to interact with the players on stage and even run the risk of being splashed by the buckets of fake (machine-washable) blood. “There’s something very exciting about being so close to the action, and the action being so visceral, bloody and spectacular,” Miles says. The Melbourne season – which involves productions of four plays – doesn’t start until September, but tickets are selling fast. In an attempt to appeal to Shakespeare sceptics, a third of all tickets will cost a modest $20 a pop. But while organisers have a 21st-century audience in mind, Miles says there’s no dumbing down the text to make it more accessible. “I think people are surprised by how easily and quickly they grasp what is happening, how much pleasure they’re having and how much laughter there is in the theatre.” ● mbartlett@theweeklyreview.com.au

Here’s your next binge. Starring Arrested Development’s Alia Shawkat, this 10-part dramedy is available in its entirety, courtesy of SBS. Halfway between Girls and Veronica Mars, it involves millennial Dora (Alia), who has nothing better to do than investigate the disappearance of Chantal – a young woman to whom she has a vague connection. Weirdly, Dora finds being a private detective gives her the meaning and purpose her Brooklyn existence otherwise lacks. Funny, thrilling, surprising and totally moreish. ●

Along the way, she uncovers a massive conspiracy, unreal creatures and towns lost in time. ●

Half Wild By Pip Smith » $29.99 (Allen & Unwin) allenandunwin.com

Vera Blue \ Perennial (Universal) verablue.com

The debut novel from this Australian author and poet builds a fascinating mystery around a once-famous murder case from the 1920s. Jean Ford, the alleged culprit, was once something of a Sydney celebrity. But the mystery teased out here isn’t whether she was guilty, but rather who Jean Ford actually was. Flipping between times and places, employing first person, hard facts, footnotes and half-true fictions, Pip sketches a coherent portrait of a disjointed personality. Ford was many women, flipping between personas and aliases in the course of a sometimes brutal, frequently astonishing life. ●

Heartbreak is a story in three acts on this long-awaited debut from Sydney’s Vera Blue (previously known as The Voice’s Celia Pavey). Before we hit rock bottom and climb towards redemption, opening track First Week captures the delicacy and intensity of a fresh break-up, shifting between delicate verses and surging synth chorus. This balance between the acoustic and the electronic characterises Vera’s approach here, pushing boldly into pop without abandoning her folk past. It’s a winning formula, boasting as much heart as flash and putting her extraordinary vocals front and centre. ●

learning in the digital age T

echnology in classrooms is nothing new, but the exponential growth of digital devices – especially in the past decade – has made it a much more common part of the learning experience in Australia. As technology has progressed in leaps and bounds, the curriculum, schools and teachers have all had to keep pace. Joanne Blannin, a digital learning leader with the University of Melbourne’s graduate school of education, says Australian students in years 2-10 have a new digital technology curriculum to work from. “We used to have the ICT (information communication technology) curriculum that, in the past, if you were in year 3 you could put together a PowerPoint presentation about your favourite insect and you would have achieved a successful outcome,” she says. “The difference now is students are learning about how digital systems like how a Wi-Fi router works, and how it connects to the internet.” Students also use apps to – for example – track their favourite insects, learn more about them and share the information online with classmates. Joanne says the curriculum aims to prepare students for the future workforce – for jobs that will likely involve technologies and require the types of skills that are being taught alongside how technology is used. They include problem solving; how to think critically, creatively and entrepreneurially; and collaborating with other students online.

20 THE WEEKLY REVIEW \ JULY 19, 2017

Teachers are also having to study to keep up with the latest ways to use technology. “Some schools are already working with the new curriculum easily,” Joanne says. “For others, this is brand new, with new outcomes that [many] teachers were never taught. It was not a part of their teacher education.” Technology can be part of any STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) class, but Joanne says schools are also integrating technology throughout their curriculums. “Schools can connect it to other parts of the curriculum,” she says. “If they’re learning English or history or geography, then they can connect with the idea of digital systems.” As well as devices such as laptops and smartphones, coding is becoming part of the school vernacular. In Melbourne, some schools have started coding clubs in recent years. Many such clubs run outside normal school hours. “In the past couple of years I’ve worked with about 600 schools across Australia – remote, private and Catholic,” Joanne says. “There are pockets of excellence … where the school and teachers are really ahead of the game.”

Does technology help learning? of studies has shown the effectiveness, or lack A range thereof, of learning when technology is used in classrooms.

Joanne says its benefit for students comes down to how individual teachers use technology as part of lessons. “A laptop is an inanimate object – it is what the teacher and the student do with that object that supports student learning or not,” she says. “For a teacher who has a real ability to teach and exciting ways to teach, [devices] seem to work really well because they’re just another tool in the teaching toolkit. “If you are a very traditional type of teacher, who relies mainly on speaking at the students rather than working with the students, you might find teaching with technology more challenging. “Blaming the technology [for not providing effective learning] just doesn’t seem very useful to me because the effectiveness of it really comes down to the user,” she says. Beyond making classes more immersive and fun, technology also makes learning more connected across the world. That means it is more purposeful, Joanne says. Innovations include websites such as Skype in the Classroom, which has a list of scientists or experts from all around the world that teachers can ask questions or book to talk to classes. “I had a scientist in Antarctica talk to a class on Skype and he turned the camera around to show the students the penguins out of the window,” she says. Another time, a scientist in Arizona talked to a class in Darwin about the desert. “Those things offer so much more than a textbook and an

atlas,” Joanne says. “It’s the kind of learning they’re going to need when they leave school and enter the workforce.”

The future of schools he future of eduction is already here, experts say. Joanne T says a lot of schools that got money under the Building the Education Revolution scheme in the past 10 years built

the global curriculum

open-plan classroom buildings. That followed a push towards non-traditional classrooms: rooms designed for more than a teacher at the front, speaking to students. “We know, particularly in primary school, [traditional] is not the only way that students can work in a classroom,” Joanne says. “My doctoral research is looking at teachers who do use technology and what factors help them do that. One of the factors that’s coming out very strongly is that teachers are going to have to work far more closely together.” She says a shared understanding of technology is necessary, because there’s no way for an individual to keep up with everything that is happening. “Teachers need to be able to say ‘I don’t know how to do this but if someone in our team does, then we can all do it’,” she says. More collaboration is also needed between year levels and schools, as well as work to teach to students’ skill levels and understanding, rather than age groups. “Open-plan spaces (classrooms), if they’re used well, they can really help teachers do that,” Joanne says. ● MELISSA HEAGNEY melissa.heagney@theweeklyreview.com.au

teaching for the future

(ISTOCK)

econdary schools and students across Melbourne have embraced the use of technology, especially since devices became transportable and internet-connected across classrooms thanks to Wi-Fi. This portability has added a complexity and ease to learning, allowing students to use digital devices during lessons and letting them explore the world of coding and robotics. These are skills that will prepare students for a future workforce where online literacy will be a must and creative and entrepreneurial thinking compulsory. At Kilvington Grammar School in Ormond, in Melbourne’s inner south-east, students use a podcast to communicate to the school and wider community. Kilvington Grammar’s academic dean of technology, Kirsty Watts, says the school’s podcast – K-POD – has had great feedback since its launch two months ago. Kilvington’s year 9 media studies students work on the podcasts as part of their classes. Content includes information about what is going on at the school, almost like a newsletter. “They developed the jingle, designed the logo, write the scripts, create the content, act as hosts and interviewers, and edit all the audio into the final edition,” Kirsty says. Year 9 students helped start the podcast, but Kirsty says many other students are keen to be involved. They have been exploring other ways K-POD might be used. “Now the podcast is established, we are recruiting from

other year groups and interest areas, like the debating team,” she says. “This ongoing project can give budding journalists, broadcasters, writers, editors and producers the opportunity to be part of a team, who in the past have published a printed publication.” Kirsty says students are not only learning the technical skills behind podcasting, but are also learning creativity, writing, collaboration and teamwork, and an appreciation of what makes engaging content. “As a school, we are progressive when it comes to technology and digital communication,” she says. “We are committed to ensuring our students have the tools in order to flourish in the 21st-century workforce, which is why K-POD is owned by our students.” She says Kilvington has been a leader in the use of technology in education, not only in Melbourne, but in Australia. “We were one of the first laptop schools in Australia, a beta-testing site for the program dedicated to integrating the internet into schools, and we were Australia’s first wireless school,” Kirsty says. While creating online content has been a focus at Kilvington, St Catherine’s School in Toorak is using augmented and virtual reality as part of its classes. Head of digital learning and practice Alex Borlenghi says year 7 and 8 students are taking “virtual field trips” to see the

Year 10 students learn history through augmented reality posters, which include embedded videos (in augmented reality, an image can be scanned with a mobile phone and information, video and/or links to websites will appear). Just weeks ago, St Catherine’s also introduced a new elective for year 9 and 10 students – “the augmented and virtual world”. Alex says it is the first of its kind in Australia. “It not only teaches our students to understand and use

AR and VR, but to create in both media,” he says. As well as learning about how the technology works, virtual and augmented reality offer opportunities for students to learn in more hands-on ways. “Using VR to virtually transport students to locations on the other side of the world opens up a huge variety of experiential learning possibilities. We can visit ancient monuments, some of the world’s great museums and natural environments,” Alex says. “Students can look around them in all directions and even virtually ‘walk’ through the streets of a European city, hiking trail in the Rocky Mountains or a Moroccan souk.

“Augmented reality provides different opportunities. Teachers can add digital information to real-world objects and link them to online resources. Then students themselves can add a layer of digital information to an image, poster or object. “When a World War II poster in a classroom can come alive and discuss the war with onlookers … it’s likely students are going to be pretty engaged with their learning,” Alex says. ● MELISSA HEAGNEY melissa.heagney@theweeklyreview.com.au

JULY 19, 2017 \ THE WEEKLY REVIEW 25

FEATURE HOUSE BRIGHTON \ 5/23 ST NINIANS ROAD 3

nly a swathe of parkland lies between the bay and this spectacular first-floor apartment, one of a tiny number of properties on the Brighton foreshore. And what’s that beside the Golden Mile? A golden smile – a cute grin of a beach to which one must stroll, not drive. If that’s not a sweet spot from which to see the sunset, this property’s glass-fronted terrace, with its uninterrupted view to the city, surely will be. Designed by SJB Architects, the apartment building is secluded in the no-through end of St Ninians Road and has just five dwellings. Soothingly, this residence is as efficient as it is luxurious. A lift, two living areas and three bedrooms with en suite bathrooms ensure a busy family can scoot around easily. And, if cars had souls, they’d regard the basement garage – four spaces, ample storage, elegant – as auto Nirvana. From the glass-walled foyer, take the private lift or staircase to the first floor. Left of the travertine landing, the first of three double bedrooms faces north and has beige 2pac cupboards. The walk-in wardrobe leads to a travertine en suite with shower and marble cabinet. The apartment has a side hall that serves two further bedrooms and the library before flowing into the living area. Bedroom two has a built-in wardrobe. The main bedroom has built-in and walk-in wardrobes; take care in the en suite, which has timber sliding doors to allow a peep at the marble bath (and its bather) below. The library looks smart in spotted gum, and has bookcases plus a fitted study nook and a powder room. In the living and dining area, the creamy travertine floor and stone fireplace pillar (with gas fire) delineate the dazzling panorama outside. Sliding doors lead to the terrace, which has gardenias and alyssums by Jack Merlo, and an elevated, mosaic-tiled spa. The marble kitchen – a worthy backdrop to the living area’s glamour – has a Gaggenau cooktop and twin ovens, a Miele dishwasher, wine fridge and walk-in pantry with an office nook. The property has two wine stores, a laundry, security and Foxtel wiring. ● ALISON BARCLAY property@domain.com.au
