Back Issue August/ September 2025 (PDF Download)
Relive the beauty of the Southern Highlands with this digital back issue of Highlife.
The great escape
When Dalway Farm, only minutes from Bowral, became available 10 years ago, Sam and Susan Ballas couldn’t resist the 40 hectare property’s lush paddocks and spectacular outlook.
The nature of art
Bronwyn Berman juggles many art forms – from large sculptures to 3D works on paper to jewellery – and all reflect a love of nature. We visit her Robertson studio/gallery.
Keeping up with Miriam
At 84, British/Australian actor Mariam Margolyes couldn’t be busier, with a new show, new book and more road trip documentaries in the planning. We visited her at the house she has owned in Robertson since 2000.
Going wild
It’s a rare sight in the middle of Bowral: an energy efficient house surrounded by a colourful all-native garden, which is as welcoming for birds and other creatures as it is for humans.
The beauty of stone walls
The appeal of stone walls set against countryside is age-old and you’ll see plenty of beautiful examples on drives around the Highlands.
Musical vision
In July, 29 students from around Australia attended the 37th National Braille Music Camp at Frensham. Roma Dix, who has been involved in every camp, tells us what makes it special.
Rare beauty
Frances Simons spent a week on Norfolk Island and found it delivered on all counts, from crystal clear bays, rugged coastline and unique flora and fauna to its intriguing history.
Schools of thought
The heads of 10 primary and secondary schools tell us what sets their school apart.
