News REDEEMER REDEEMER news NEWSLETTER TO PARENTS AND GUARDIANS OF REDEEMER BAPTIST SCHOOL Greetings to all parents, guardians and friends! What a wonderful Easter Chapel service we had at School led by Year 12 reading the Easter story from the Gospel of John. The singing from the whole School was inspira- tional, supported so ably by our instrument group. It was wonderful that so many parents and family members could Term 1 Issue 1 share this occasion with us. April 2016 The purpose of this newsletter is to review the term that is almost over and to let you know some important dates for the first half of Term 2. TERM ONE IN REVIEW Parent/Guardian Information Nights Your feedback on these occasions was that we have been able to convey the School expectations and guidelines in supporting learning at home. The attendance this year was very good. We see these occa- sions as vital in creating the link between School and home. The Senior Hospitality students excelled in catering for us on all these occasions. I am sure you will agree! Module Two (Years 9 & 10) School Camp What a varied week with the most magnificent weather on the South Coast. Our students were able to complete field trips for Geography, Science, Business and Commerce, as well as strenuous activities such as climbing Pigeon House Mountain and canoeing the Clyde River from Nelligen to Batemans Bay. One of the field trips was a visit to a dairy farm where all the cows are milked by robots! This is a new project in the Nowra district and an amazing application of current technology to agriculture. The students also had an opportunity to taste milk straight from the cow (almost!). Our Bible studies this year — centred on the Apostle Peter and his life as a follower of Jesus — point the way for our lives as (continued p. 2) Telephone: 02 9630 6311 Email: [email protected] 2 Masons Drive, North Parramatta Facsimile: 02 9683 5338 Web: www.redeemer.nsw.edu.au NSW 2151 Australia a ministry of REDEEMER BAPTIST CHURCH a fellowship of renewal Redeemer Baptist School Ltd ABN 62 002 650 704 followers of Jesus today. One of our key verses on camp was from 1 Timothy 4:12, “Don’t let anyone think less of you because you are young. Be an example to all believ- ers in what you say, in the way you live, in your love, your faith, and your purity.” Each study began with enjoyable and hilarious activities!

In a period of two weeks most of the southern section of the Reserve including the whole of the Kelly wilderness area was consumed. The long drought and hot summer eventually took its toll of the Reserve. We know from past experience that periodic fires are one of the natural forces which have shaped the Australian bush and helped to produce our distinctive flora. This realisation does not, however, lessen the shock in seeing the Reserve blackened and burnt, seemingly stripped of all life forms. With rain the Reserve will recover and the mountain slopes and plains will again; be covered in their distinctive trees, shrubs and wild-flowers. As we wait for nature to take its course let us use this opportunity to take stock of the problems facing the future management of the Reserve so that we can make a fresh approach to the solution of some of the problem areas. One of the questions which must be addressed fairly quickly is the future of the Gudgenby pine plantation; the fire largely destroyed this plantation and it probably now has little or no commercial value. The remains of the plantation should be removed and the area allowed to regenerate naturally.

    Language Recovery of the New South Wales South Coast Aboriginal Languages Part B Language Material Jutta Besold A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The Australian National University Submitted January 2012 Revised May 2013 Chapter B.2 Dharumba All Dharumba stories were collected and transcribed by Andrew Mackenzie (1818- 1878) and published in the Royal Anthropological Institute of Great Britain and Ireland in the 1870s. Three of eight stories were also published in Ridley’s (1875) publication. The informants’ place of origin and name is given for some of the stories, both belonged to the Wandandian Tribe, which is based in the area of Nowra and the Shoalhaven River area down towards Ulladulla. Section B.2.2 contains all sentences collected by Mathews and Mackenzie from unpublished and published sources. B.2.1 Dharumba Texts The first three stories are the story of Bundoola. They are presented in chronological order of publication. The first published version of Bundoola and was narrated by Bimmoon, who was a member of the Ulladulla tribe, and who also provided a longer and more elaborate English translation, which is presented as part of text 3. The following version 2 offers a different version by a different informant, Thooritgal, also from the Ulladulla tribe. Another Dharrawal version of this story was told by Les Bundle in Nowra and recorded by Capell (1955), see Dharrawal Text 10. 111 1.

For further information contact the UOW Library: [email protected] Illawarra and South Coast Aborigines 1770-1900 Abstract The following compilation of historical manuscript and published material relating to the Illawarra and South Coast Aborigines for the approximate period 1770 to 1900 aims to supplement that contained in the author's Illawarra and South Coast Aborigines 1770- 1850 (Wollongong University, 1990). The latter was compiled in a relatively short 18 month period between 1988 and 1989, and since then a great deal of new material has been discovered, with more undoubtedly yet to be unearthed of relevance to this study. As a result the present document contains material of a similar nature to that in the 1990 work, with an added emphasis on items from the period 1850 to 1900. Also included are bibliographic references which bring up to date those contained in the previous work. All told, some 1000 pages of primary sources and references to published works are now available on the Illawarra and South Coast Aborigines for the approximate period 1770 to 1900, though an attempt has been made to include items from this century which outline some of the history of the central Illawarra and Shoalhaven Aboriginal communities.

  • Blue Mountains
    © Lonely Planet Publications 106 www.lonelyplanet.com 107 Around Sydney Sydney’s suburbs spread over a broad coastal plain like spilt honey, hemmed in by rugged country on three sides and the Pacific Ocean on the other. The area sustains Australia’s larg- est concentration of people, the urban melange thinning as the kilometres stretch inland. AROUND SYDNEY Beyond the city, bushwalking tracks, cycling paths, scenic train routes and roads connect a small-town smorgasbord, interspersed with gorgeous waterways, uncrowded beaches and magical national parks. The proximity of these delights to Sydney means that public transport is often a viable option – you can cover a lot of ground on day trips, with or without your own wheels. To the west, the wooded foothills of the Great Dividing Range rise to the lofty Blue Mountains, with their heaven-sent scenery and quirky villages. To the south, Royal National Park harbours lost-to-the-world beaches, rainforest pockets and precipitous cliff-scapes. Inland, fertile soils support the rural settlements of Macarthur Country and historic Macquarie towns, extending south to the dignified Southern Highlands. Occupying a hefty chunk of Sydney’s north, Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park’s dense bush- land and sandstone outcrops are cut by shimmering inlets. Further north, the landscape is defined by the meandering brown snake of the Hawkesbury River, with its ferry crossings, oyster farms and sleepy towns. Beyond here are the inland lakes and surf-centric communi- ties of the Central Coast. HIGHLIGHTS Hole up
