SUMMARY:Australian Indigenous Astronomy: 65\,000 Years of Science
DESCRIPTION:Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people developed a number of practical ways to observe the Sun\, Moon\, stars\, and planets to inform navigation\, calendars\, predict weather\, and inform Law and social structure. This knowledge contains a significant scientific component\, which is encoded in oral traditions and material culture. \nThis talk will explore the many ways in which Indigenous Australians encode scientific information in their traditions and some of the ways in which they pass this knowledge to successive generations. \nAbout the speaker\nDr Duane Hamacher is an astronomer and Senior Research Fellow at the Monash University Indigenous Studies Centre. He specialises in Indigenous astronomical and geological knowledge in Australia and the Pacific. \nTHE NORTH STEM NETWORK:\nThis event is generously hosted by St Monica’s College in support of a new North STEM Network\, to be convened by the new Whittlesea & Banyule-Nillumbik Tech Schools. These exciting new Schools bring 21st century learning to the network of local secondary schools\, and also act as a “Science and Innovation Hub” for the Victorian Inspiring Australia program. \n

SUMMARY:Discover the Eucalypts of the Brisbane Ranges
DESCRIPTION:To celebrate National Eucalypt Day in 2018\, the Royal Society of Victoria and Eucalypt Australia are offering a wonderful opportunity to explore the beautiful Brisbane Ranges National Park to the west of Melbourne with botanist\, geologist and author of the iconic “Native Trees and Shrubs of South-Eastern Australia\,” Leon Costermans. \nSetting out by bus from the Royal Society of Victoria early in the day\, a short hour’s journey will have us exploring the unique geology of the Brisbane Ranges and learning to identify some of the area’s indigenous eucalypt species\, their ecological roles and habitat ranges. The excursion will incorporate a bus tour\, a gentle bushwalk and a barbeque lunch at the Steiglitz Historic Park. \nJoin us on 20 March\, and make a deeper connection to country with one of Victoria’s most respected botanists and geologists. This excursion is subsidised through the generous support of Eucalypt Australia as part of the week-long program of events planned around National Eucalypt Day 2018 (23rd March) and the Victorian Inspiring Australia program. \nAbout Leon Costermans: \nLeon is a longstanding member of the RSV. He has been describing and publishing guides to eucalypt species endemic to South-Eastern Australia for decades\, educating and assisting generations of Victorians to develop a knowledge of and passion for our indigenous trees and plants. He was recognised by Eucalypt Australia for his lifetime contributions to the conservation of eucalypts with the award of the Bjarne K Dahl Medal in 2016.
