March 2021 Aldinga Payinthi College Update Last Month the Aldinga Bay Resident’s Association (ABRA) hosted a public meeting on the progress of the Aldinga Payinthi College. Many locals packed into the Aldinga Library (in line with COVID19 restrictions) or braved technical difficulties online to hear from Lee Sansom from Department for Education Lee Sansom, Inaugural Principal- Alison Colbeck and a representative from the Architects. The speakers took us through the design process, enrollments information and carparking. Locals also raised various concerns, making the meeting very insightful for all who attended. Video footage from the meeting will be available on our facebook page soon! Enrollment Information Enrollments for the 2022 school year will open soon, closing on Friday 2nd of July 2021. The 2022 limits for each year level will be: Preschool: 40 children R-2: 52 per year level 3-6: 30 per year level 7 & 8: 192 per year level Inclusive Preschool program: 4 children Supported Learning Centre: 60 students Pedestrian Lights installed As part of the increased traffic associated with the new school, a roundabout and pedestrian traffic lights have been installed (the first of any type of ‘red-yellow-green’ light in Aldinga). A photo of the new lights is on our front cover and some more shots of the upgraded intersection are on the right column of this page. Social Media Accounts opened Stay up to date with photos from the construction as it progresses through the school’s new social media accounts: www.facebook.com/AldingaPayinthiCollege/ www.instagram.com/aldingapayinthicollege/ Aldinga Bay’s Coastal Views 5

State Election Watch:
With the state election only 13 months away, candidates who will vie for your vote as starting to
be chosen for each party.
During February, the Liberal Party picked dairy farmer Amy Williams as their candidate for
Mawson, edging out two other contenders including Deputy Mayor and former Kaurna candidate
Simon McMahon.
Coastal Views contacted the Liberal party offering to do a profile on the newly selected candidate,
however the party was not able to meet our deadlines. We will endeavor to include the profile
in our next edition. We will be offering ALL Mawson candidates this opportunity and will be
republishing all profiles in early 2022.
ABRA will also hold a public meeting with all Mawson Candidates given equal opportunity to
speak, as we do at each election.
ABRA remains apolitical and will provide the same opportunities to all the Mawson Candidates

Aldinga History
by Mark Staniforth
former Butcher’s Shop on Flour Mill Road
In 1867 Lewis Fidge sold this block of land (part
of section 401) to James Waters, a laborer of
Aldinga. The land is located at what would later
become the corner of Flour Mill Road and Adey
Road. Waters sold the land to William Mills,
farmer of Willunga, in 1870, then it passed to
Mary Ann Moore and finally to Francis Hart, a
butcher of Aldinga, in 1882.
Alfred Bird purchased what was probably
already an operating butcher’s shop on this
