24.01.2022 From Saturday, 14 November at 12.01am, Western Australia will transition to a safe and sensible controlled border arrangement based on the latest public health advice. Under WA’s new controlled border, the existing hard border exemption system will be removed and replaced with an updated nationwide health-based threshold that allows for safe travel into Western Australia from interstate with conditions, and subject to trigger points being met. The Chief Health Officer has ...recommended a 14-day rolling average of less than five community cases per day in each state and territory (a standard that is currently being met in each jurisdiction) is required before progressing to the new border controls. Travellers from interstate will be permitted entry to WA with conditions on arrival including a declaration, health screening and a possible COVID-19 test. Failure to follow these directions or providing false information will be enforceable by law, with penalties ranging from $1,000 infringements, to up to $50,000 fines for individuals.

19.01.2022 NEW PLAQUES FOR WONGBOREL/MOUNT BROWN Following a request from a local Ballardong Noongar Elder, Council agreed at the August Council meeting to update one of the signs on Wongborel/Mt Brown to acknowledge the existence of indigenous people in the area tens of thousands of years prior to settlement in 1830. The plaque has now been removed and will be replaced by two plaques, one acknowledging the Ballardong Noongar Traditional Owners and another with the story of the explora...tion of the York area by settlers in 1831. This attitude commonly occurred in the 1960s when it is believed the plaque was installed but is not acceptable today. On researching the details on the plaque, it was discovered that the plaque was factually incorrect. The plaque has been removed and will be replaced by two plaques, one acknowledging the Ballardong Noongar Traditional Owners and another with the story of the exploration of the York area by settlers in 1830.

16.01.2022 How did that get there????! Katie Benfield, Curator of the York Residency Museum, has had a paper published in the International Journal of Historical Archaeology with the York Residency Museum used as a case study. The paper was co-authored with several other archaeologists during the Covid lockdown. To an archaeologist, how something gets to where it is found, can be as important as what is actually found....!... Underfloor cavities can create an excellent environment that allows the survival of rare and fragile organic materials. The paper details the experiments undertaken to understand how objects slip through the gaps to become hidden treasure waiting to be found. The York Residency Museum is a mid-nineteenth-century building originally constructed as the Superintendents quarters for the York Convict Depot, then later used as the Resident Magistrates quarters, before becoming part of the York Hospital in the first half of the twentieth century.
