Revellers and Northbridge locals may have noticed a feature of the James and Lake Street roundabout has gone missing. The sculpture called Arch was installed to mark the opening of the Northbridge Piazza precinct in 2009, and was commissioned by the City of Perth at a cost of $99,000. But in late 2023, the public art piece was removed for repairs by the City of Perth and has not been reinstalled.

A teacher once told Indigenous artist Bobbi Lockyer to "get her heads out of the clouds" when it came to her dream of becoming an artist. Lockyer told Mark Gibson on ABC Radio Perth that growing up in Port Hedland meant students were "heavily encouraged" to take up career paths in sectors such as trades. "They do traineeships at school to do engineering or become an electrician, all those sorts of things that I didn't want to do," Lockyer said.

But the word's origins come from a very different sphere, linguist Daniel Midgely explained to Mark Gibson on ABC Radio Perth. He said the word had Dutch origins from the Dutch word vrijbuiter, which means free-booter, effectively pirate, or to plunder.

West Coast Eagles fans, I’ll chat to your new coach, Andrew McQualter on ABC Perth Breakfast, 7am Tuesday. 🦅 @WestCoastEagles @abcnews @abcsport
It was great to spend some time chatting with @AlboMP in the ABC Perth Breakfast studio. Topics included energy, jobs, GST, live sheep, youth detention, even the PM’s wedding (which won’t be until after next year’s election). https://t.co/nSHqLBQMZi
Thanks for stopping by and spending some time on the Breakfast show, Prime Minister.
