Welcome to the Norwoodhood by DAVID BELL

WITH the old Cheriton Street cottage narrowly saved from being sold, the Norwood Neighbourhood Association is turning it into a neighbourhood centre. Vincent city council is soon to start restorations on the cottage, so the NNA’s asking locals to come out to an ideas day on August 30 to think up plans on how to use the centre. It’s already turned the backyard into a community garden and set up a BBQ, and it’s looking at ideas like a community kitchen or a coffee window for the house itself when it opens early next year. The community vision workshop runs 1–4pm at 34 Cheriton Street and there’ll be afternnon tea and stuff to keep the kiddies busy. The saga of the railway house started back in April 2011 when the WA government tried to sell the house. Locals feared it’d be lost forever but the deal fell through due to a bungled tender, and both sides of politics lobbied to have it transferred to community hands.

The Bayswater wetland is coming back to life after decades as a site for market gardens, and then a weed-infested wasteland. “Once the land was no longer used privately, that led to weeds and they have driven out vegetation,” says Baigup wetlands interest group coordinator Penny Lee. “We need to preserve the wetland if we want to see wildlife continue to thrive.” Like many wetlands in the network along the Swan coastal plain, Baigup has important cultural significance to Aboriginal people. Those remaining face numerous stresses, as outlined in a report just released by the WA auditor-general. The report says the Swan and Canning river systems and wetlands are failing to cope with Perth’s growing population and development pressures.
