Message from the Principal

Theme: Have courage “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go”.Joshua 1:9 NIV

As we draw to the end of term 1 2018We all reflect as a community on the recent past and the difficult days for a section of our beautiful valleys community and particularly Tath-ra. The tragedy of property and loss is difficult, but we give thanks for the safety of all who fought the fires, those threatened by fire and the lives saved by so many. Since that time the outpouring of love and concern, practical help and giving has been amazing and reflects the way such a community can rise to support and deliver the help needed to re-establish hope.

During Easter I was fortunate enough to have been at the farewell of Bishop Robinson in Goulburn. In a symbolic gesture he with many other leaders of the church community, walked from one church to the park carrying a cross. The bishop took the lead and then in the park

spoke about the death and resurrection of Jesus on the cross for us. Tak-ing the supreme sacrifice and keeping his promise of new life through his resurrection, witnessed by a crowd of followers and people he saw.The Bishop humbly thanked the people of Goulburn and gave thanks for all that had been achieved in his time in office. Part of that achieve-ment has been the support both financially and pastorally of our college. We have written to him to thank him and wish him well in his move to parish work in Sydney.

Easter Sunday saw all churches and community groups gather on the beach at Tathra to hear that same Easter message of hope, also shared by the Bishop, through forgiveness and the resurrection message Jesus gave.The churches through sharing of Gods word, prayer and giving thanks for safety to the Tathra people allowed us to reflect of Gods goodness. We close the term with thanksgiving for all that has been achieved by the community, the College, each student and family who have achieved so much this term.

Deputy Principal MattersWith the term at an end students and staff alike are looking forward to a well-earned break. This has been an extremely busy term for stu-dents. Parents please contact your child’s homeroom teacher for advice about your child’s academic program especially if you were unable to attend Parent/Teacher Evening. Homeroom teachers are the first point of contact on matters of pastoral care and academic programme advice. I advise all parents to communicate through the diary and sight and sign off in it after discussing your child’s progress. Diaries are checked by homeroom teachers every Tuesday.

College UniformOn a matter of preparing for term 2, these holidays are a good opportu-nity to take stock of all things academic and ensure maintenance of the college uniform. For all requirements regarding uniform please refer to the college diary (p14A-16A). Please refer to the special section on our school uniform below.

John Lincoln Youth Community Service AwardsYou may recognise Emily Smith in this photograph. Emily was award-ed The John Lincoln Youth Community Service Award by the NSW Branch of the Order of Australia Association. It recognises outstanding service rendered to the community by senior NSW secondary school students, those who have made outstanding contributions that benefit their communities, and ultimately our country. These awards by their very nature define and identify role models at all levels within our com-munities and inspire us all to become more fully engaged citizens.As a College we will be seeking students who may fit the criteria and nominate them for this prestigious award.

ANZAC DayWe look forward to commemorating ANZAC Day. Sapphire Coast An-glican College will be represented in the annual ANZAC Day March in Bega on Wednesday 25 April. Meet in Gipps Street at by 10.15am. You will see our bannerCommencing at 10.30am in Gipps Street. 10.30am – Meet and form up in Gipps St outside Club Bega.At 10.45am – March commences down Carp St to Memorial for ANZAC Day Service at 11am12.00 – Ceremony concludesOur Junior and Senior Captains will be laying a wreath.

We are inviting all staff, students and parents to attend and march to-gether as a College. It will be compulsory to wear College winter uni-form. Please indicate your attendance to reception asap.

College UniformThe College requires the wearing of uniform in order to remove any distinctions of class, to develop a sense of belonging and to identify students attending the College. The wearing of uniform is a tangible expression of an expected range of student attitudes and behaviours. These include: > A realisation of the need to apply oneself to learning. > A realisation of the need to come under a teacher’s authority. > A realisation of the need to conform to College standards. > A sense of identity and pride in the College. A constantly non-compliant approach by a student towards the Col-lege’s Uniform Policy is often indicative of a rebellious heart (attitude) towards authority and learning, and as such is a very real hindrance to the achieving of positive learning outcomes.

Hair All students should have hair off their face at all times and if long, restrained. Senior students may, at the discretion of the College, have their hair unrestrained as long as it does not cover the face. In specific classes, eg. Hospitality, Design and Technology and sport situations, for Work Health and Safety reasons long hair must be restrained in accord-ance with that subjects’ requirements. Unnatural hair colours (eg pink, green, blue etc) and unnaturally streaked hair is not permitted. Male students must be clean-shaven at all times and haircuts should not be extreme. (i.e. No Mohawks, half shaven cuts, words shaved in or un-naturally coloured hair is permitted).

Hats College hats are to be worn outdoors at all times. Brand name hats are not to be worn.

Girl’s Winter Uniform > College pants: black boot leg College pants OR College skirt: tartan (worn at knee length) > Shirt: white (long sleeve, business style) > College polar fleece - bottle green AND/OR College jumper – bottle green > Socks: white crew (with black pants) OR Stockings: plain black, no pattern (with skirt) > Shoes: black polishable school shoes > Hat: bottle green slouch hat or bottle green bucket hat > Blazers: Year 11 & 12 only

Year 6 summarises Canberra excursionYears 5 and 6 went on their school camp to Canberra. The camp was three days long. From Tuesday the 3rd of April to Thursday the 5th of April. We had lots of fun and learnt lots about Australian democracy and Australia’s history.

National Museum of Australia by Dylan and SkyOn the first day of camp we arrived at the National Museum of Australia at 10:15 am, after a long bus drive. The museum was very colourful on the outside. And there was a huge loopy structure. We entered the Mu-seum quietly. The first things we saw was an old car towing an old cara-van. We waited for our tour guide at the National Museum of Australia.The tour guide came and lead us down a staircase into K space. K space is a fun room with touch screen TVs. On the TVs we could build our own little robots. When we finished our robots the tour guide came and lead us into another room, where we could control our own robots with joysticks. We used our robots to dig for gold and help build the Sydney Harbour Bridge. We learned that people died when they were building the Sydney Harbour Bridge.

Parliament House by Cooper and BronteOn Tuesday afternoon we went to Parliament House, out the front of parliament house there were two police men with two guns and we went inside and the security was really tight. Everything in the foyer was made out of marble and granite. We walked up the stairs to the con-ference room and we had our own debate about TV advertisements in children’s TV programs.We learnt about the House of Representatives then we went to the Sen-ate then we went to have afternoon tea and after that we went to the top of parliament house a on stood on the grass roof.

Bridge to Bridge Walk by Gwendolyne On Wednesday the first activity we did was the Bridge to Bridge walk. The bus dropped use off at the Commonwealth Avenue Bridge then we where to walk to the Kings Avenue Bridge. On the way we walked in three groups, the first group was the people at the front and they where the fast people, the second group was the people how walked normally, the third group was the group that enjoyed the scenery. On the way the National Carillon bell tower rang nine o’clock. We saw two black swans swimming in the lake. When we finished the walk we went to a big playground, we played for forty five minutes. After the playground we got on the bus and went to the war memorial.

War Memorial by Scarlett and ZacAfter the walk 5/6 went to the Australian War Memorial then we split

up into 4 groups. We went around and we learned about a dog named Sarvy. She was in war and all of the sounds from the booms and guns, scared her away for two months. And the owner and a American soldier found her and returned her back to her owner. After that she died at the age of 16 and we saw her four shoes that she wore at the war and her body was taxidermied and on display.Then we all got to go to the Discovery Zone. There was a real helicopter that was used in the Vietnam War and we got to sit in the front seat and got to press everything. After that we went too a room that had a gun with mirrors. If your in the war you wouldn’t have too risk your head too aim. Also there was a hole you could put your foot in and you could see what a trench foot looked like on your own foot.

Australian National Electoral Commission By Kyra and Melody!At 12:30 we drove to the Australian Electoral Commission and we walked to the door and met our tour guide Paul. We followed him into a room and he instructed us to sit down on the red carpet steps. In the room there were two small TVs and one big TV in the middle, there was a glass cabinet, in the cabinet there were two rocks piled on each other, a book, and a little wooden dolls table. He told us that we were going to watch a short film, we watched the film about federation and changes in laws and environment. There was also in the short film a hologram included or another name for it is pepper’s ghost.After we were instructed by Paul to go into the next room in groups and go to a certain colour. The room was full of activities and different col-ours of activities about federation and law. Then we went into another room and learnt how to vote. At the age of 18 you are legally obligated to vote or you will be fined, before you start voting you need to enrol at the age of 16 or you can do it when your 18. We enjoyed learning how to vote the most out of all of the other activities at the Australian Electoral Commission.

Questacon by Darcy and Dexter At 2:30 we went inside of Questacon and waited too start our tour. First we went too station 1 was called Colour, see the world with new life. There was a racing bug game and little pictures and you had to put on big glasses where you looked through the glasses and the pictures were coloured but before they were black.Station 2 was awesome earth experience the power and the beauty. There was an earthquake machine where you had to build a tower and try to make it strong to be able to handle the earthquake.Then there was a drop slide some of us could not go down it but that’s ok. Then there was a robot that talked and danced. After that we went too the gift shop. We learnt that taller houses are most likely to collapse in a earthquake but smaller houses are more likely to stay put.

Australian Institute of Sport by Nozi Khumalo and Lydia WeberOn the second night of camp we went to the Australian Institute of Sport, also known of the AIS. Before we started our tour we went to the D Zone. A virtual simulator where you could play some of the sports in the Olympic and Paralympic Games. On our tour we looked at the athletes gym the gymnastics gym and the aquatic centre. My favourite part of our time at the AIS was the D zone. In the D zone I did bike riding, chin ups, skiing and the rock climbing wall. I learnt that the AIS was built to give our athletes better training equipment after Australia did poorly in the 1970s Olympics.

Novotel buffet breakfast by Matthew Cameron and Zane CurvenOn Thursday at 7:45am we all went to the Novotel for a buffet break-fast. Everybody was so well behaved even though there were a lot of people in there. They had lots of yummy food including pancakes, toast, pasta and fruit like honeydew melon, apple and mango.As we were coming out of the Novotel we saw Adam Elliot an NRL player who plays for the Canterbury Bulldogs. He was just about to play his 100th game against the Canberra Raiders. Mr Lambie asked him if he would be willing to talk to us and he did. He talked about playing football professionally and how the Tathra bushfires have impacted him and how he is helping with fundraising because he is from originally from Tathra.

Australian Mint By Paige And ThomasAfter the delicious buffet breakfast we left for the Royal Australian Mint. After we entered the mint we went up stairs that had $780 worth of five cent coins inside them. It started with a complete coin and ended with a coin that had nothing on it. After that we looked where they made the collector coins which have real gold and silver in them and that’s where they make the coins that are worth $3 plus.After that we saw the Commonwealth Games medals that they made for this year and for the year 2000 Sydney Olympics. Then we walked around the coins that they had made mistakes on them and they had something really cool, it’s a hologram of coins with mistakes. After all that, people could pay $3 to make an uncirculated coin. I learnt that they made the Olympic medals. That’s why we enjoyed the mint.

National Art Gallery Shakira and ZaliWe arrived at the National Art Gallery of Australia, the bus pulled over and we saw a massive ball on cables floating in mid air. Then we went inside the gigantic building and saw a huge aboriginal fishing net. The net was used for catching eels yabbies. After that we walked over to the traditional Torres Strait Islanders headpiece and that’s when we saw the amazing dot paintings. One of our classmates Nozi Khumalo knew what some of them meant. After that we went around to all the abstract paintings and sculptures they were all so amazing but some of them didn’t make sense to us. Then we moved on to have a look at blue poles and that’s when we saw this very strange couch and we all thought it was very weird and that’s when we saw blue poles it was so emotional and it had little paintings on it that weren’t actually meant to mean anything. Then we walked down the stairs and had a little look in the gift shop and when we were finished, there we walked outside got on the bus and departed Canberra for Sapphire Coast Anglican College. We had a great time on five six camp and learned so much about Aus-tralia growing as a nation to were it is today.

We’d like to make special mention to PACER who helped make this excursion possible by subsidising some of our expenses.

Year 10 Careers in ScienceBy Jenny Weber In week 10, year 10 had a visit from Mr Matt Doolan, who is an indus-trial radiographer on the Bass Strait Oil Rigs. He works 2 weeks on and 2 weeks off. He checks all the welds and joins in the pipes and vessels on the oil rigs by using ultra sounds and radiography. He showed us im-ages of pipes that need replacing due to corrosion and wear. Mr Doolan lives with the other workers on the oil rigs during his 2 weeks at work.The first picture here is one of seals that visit the rigs. They can be quite ferocious when startled. The other picture is one of the construction of a bridge between two platforms. All the sections of the bridges and platforms are brought in by boats (some of the bigger parts are floated

down from where they are made in Asia) and then are constructed mon-ster sized cranes.In week 4, Year 10 had a visit from Miss Jacinta Dummett, who studied at TOCAL, the agricultural college near Newcastle. She lived and stud-ied there for 2 years, gaining valuable first hand experiences in sheep, cattle, chicken and dairy farming, as well as horse husbandry, quad bike and motor bike skills. She worked on several different farms during the courses and has the skills and qualifications to be a jillaroo/farmhand. Year 10 would like to thank these two wonderful visitors who have showed them science in action!

Jakome’s sporting accomplishments Jakome Roberts-Charlton has been playing FSC Representative soccer for 3 years and this season will be playing up in the U16’s. He has just been selected as 1 of 2 kids from the Far South Coast to attend the NSW State residential soccer camp during the holidays. There’s a great op-portunity for him to get to play at State level and awesome to receive elite training from the NSW team. He is also in his 2nd year of FSC Representative cricket, has been play-ing up in men’s B grade and has been asked to join men’s A grade next season. He’s also been invited to attend a week of elite coaching with Cricket ACT next week. Well done Jakome

Community announcementThe Sapphire Community Pantry opened in September last year, at the front of the Salvation Army Family Store in Bega. Almost from the be-ginning it was obvious that our premises were too small for the number of customers who came and shopped with us. We currently trade one day per week, on a Thursday from 11am to 2pm, and during that time we average over 80 customers. We have reached nearly 500 members, and we are pleased to hear from our customers how valuable the Pantry has been in helping them feed their families.We’ve now taken the big leap and rented new, larger premises. How-ever, we wouldn’t be where we are now without the support shown to us by the Salvation Army, who provided us with rent-free premises, and the Southern Women’s Group who auspiced us, providing the benefits of charity status and insurance coverage. A big THANK YOU to these organisations.Our new premises are at the former Radio Rentals building, located at 2 Peden Street, Bega - next to the back of Mitre 10, and opposite Beaure-paire Tyres. We will have room for our customers, under shelter; more stock on display; a parcel-pickup service; hospitality; and more space enabling us, with funding and donations, to run other programs such as a coffee cart and barista training for people with disabilities; training;

cooking demonstrations and much more. The only limits are imagina-tion and money.To celebrate, we are holding a free BBQ with entertainment from the Wobbles Ukulele Band and we would like to invite you to attend, enjoy a snag or vego option, fine music and a tour of the new premises.The snagfest starts at 10am, and the Pantry will be officially opened at 11:00 am.

Students donate food to those mostin needBy Alasdair McDonaldZali Smith and Lydia Weber helped unpack boxes of food for those most in need.The Sapphire Coast Anglican College students, along with science teacher and head of Flynn House, Casey Hoynes, unloaded fresh and packaged food to the Sapphire Community Pantry, collected as part of a fundraiser this week.Ms Hoynes said the students wanted to donate locally, and collected fresh produce from the school’s garden and the student’s home gardens.“It feels like you’re actually doing something for the community,” Lydia said.Zali said she hopes the donation will become a regular event between the school and the pantry.“Doing it feels better than just saying you are going to do something for the community,” she said.
