Issue 6 22Nd April 2021 EASTBOURNE P.S. We acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as the traditional custodians of the land that Eastbourne Primary School is built on, that is Boonwrung/ EVENTS Bunurong Land. Always was, always will be. At Eastbourne Primary School we value: Learning, Respect, Collaboration and Community. We are a RRR school - APRIL Resilience, Rights and Respectful Relationships.

Year 4 Camp Money Due 25th Anzac Day Issue 6 22nd April 2021 28th 5.30pm Principal’s Report Fathering Project It’s great to have the Eastbourne Team back together after a longer 30th break than usual. Cross Country As with all terms in schools, this term promises to have lots of exciting School Assembly things on the agenda for all our students and staff. Our school cross country will be held on Friday April 30th, NaPlan for Years 3 and 5 in early May, Year 3 (May 24th-26th) and Year 4 (May 3rd-5th) camps May will be held at the Briars and Phillip Island respectively, Mother’s Day 3rd—5th Stall and ANZAC Day arrangements are in full swing, Dementia Year 4 Camp sessions and Brain Development lessons for Year 5, Year 5/6 Puberty Education and our Whole School Social In School Performance visit, 5th are some of the things on the cards up to half way through this term.

Mother’s Day Stall Attendance Attendance at school is a compulsory requirement. Across the state we have an attendance issue that requires schools to spend large amounts of time and energy on an area we shouldn’t have too. Eastbourne Primary School has a number of students who are absent on a regular basis. This absenteeism impacts on their attainment of skills, their learning outcomes, friendships and social development and their ability to ‘do it tough’. I encourage all parents and families to make sure their child is attending school 5 days a week, 40 weeks a year. Holiday Program SCHOOL’S BSB I’d like to thank the staff who worked so diligently throughout our Holiday Vacation Care Program. DETAILS FOR ONLINE We are the cheapest program going around and our staff provide a caring, challenging, interesting PAYMENTS and varied program for all students.

If you know of someone who is trained or is training in Child or Integration Aide Care (Cert. 3 Minimum Requirement), please ask them to contact the school. We can also employ ACCOUNT 124505181 those who are in training as teachers. PLEASE USE CHILD’S SURNAME AND ANZAC Day ACTIVITY AS Due to the Covid 19 pandemic, there are still some things that are being adjusted and changed. REFERENCE The ANZAC Day ceremony is one of these celebrations that we are usually involved in. This year there will be a dawn service only which we will not be attending as a school (flowers will be presented on our school’s behalf). I encourage all students to purchase an ANZAC Day badge to support the great effort the RSL does for many members of our community.

  • Afl Queensland
    PINEAPPLE HOTEL CUP E-FOOTY RECORD ROUND 12 E-Footy RECORD 28th June 2008 Issue 12 Editorial with Marty King AFL QUEENSLAND: STRICT ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY ON RACIAL VILIFICATION It disappoints me to have to remind people that the AFL and AFL Queensland has a strict zero tolerance policy on racial vilifi cation. There have been a couple of unsavoury incidents lately, spread across the fi rst and second divisions of the State League competition, which are simply unacceptable. Under no circumstances will this sort of behavior be tolerated because there is no place for this sort of thing in our game, and AFL Queensland will do whatever it takes to ensure that the perpetrators are suitably reprimanded. This is a cornerstone of what State League football is all about. It is a family-oriented competition which should operate in an environment of respect and responsibility. AFLQ is no different to the AFL, which prides itself on setting behavioural standards that are benchmarks for the general society. It is why the AFL implements and takes very seriously things like the Code of Conduct, and general standards that relate to racial and religious vilifi cation and responsible consumption of alcohol. It is imperative that these values are upheld right across the competition, and so I appeal to all involved with AFL Queensland to do the right thing and to speak up if you are witnesses to inappropriate behavior. The overwhelming majority of people do the right thing all the time. They come to the football with their family or friends, they enjoy the contest and the atmosphere, they barrack for their team in good-natured fun, and they conduct themselves appropriately.

  • A'court, BILL (West Adelaide)
    A A’COURT, BILL (West Adelaide): Acourt was placed on Oliver and to keep this man from taking his sensational marks gives a man plenty to do. Acourt did not let him do too much, and played a good game beside.1 Father of star West Adelaide ruckman of the 1950s Fred A’Court (profiled below), Bill A’Court was a strong defender who also played with West. He debuted with the club in 1909, and was a key member that same year of its winning grand final team against Port Adelaide. He went on to play in the premiership sides of 1911 and 1912 as well. From 1909 to 1915 A’Court played 83 SAFL games and kicked four goals. A’COURT, FRED (West Adelaide): Fred A’Court was a stalwart of West Adelaide sides during the club’s nightmare decade of the 1950s, when four grand finals were contested without success, all against Port Adelaide. He commenced with West in 1949, and over the ensuing 11 seasons played a total of 159 league games and kicked 110 goals. In January 1954, A’Court applied for a clearance to VFL club Richmond, claiming that, if he made the move, he would be £15 a week better off financially, but West Adelaide refused the application and he continued to play for the Blood and Tars for the remainder of his career. A tough, tireless and talented ruckman, A’Court - popularly known as ‘Boof’ - represented South Australia eight times, kicking 10 goals. AAMODT, COLIN (North Adelaide): In a brainy display of football Aamodt showed all the fleetness of foot that enabled him to run a place in a Stawell Gift.

  • Thesis Amended to Examiners Comments
    Organizational Culture and Identity: A Case Study from the Australian Football League Gervase A. Haimes A thesis submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy VICTORIA UNIVERISTY School of Human Movement, Recreation and Performance Faculty of Arts, Education and Human Development August 2006 ABSTRACT This thesis comprises research that was undertaken between January 2000 and December 2004 into the organizational culture and identity of Fremantle Football Club, a professional sporting organization that competes in an elite national football competition, the Australian Football League. The thesis began with a review of the contemporary literature on the principal topic, organizational culture and identity. The literature was subsequently used to frame and explain the approach taken in the research, which was to explore culture and identity as distinguishable, inter-dependent concepts integral to the functioning of sports organizations. The justification for the need to explore their impact in professional sporting organizations, because of a gap in our knowledge, was also provided. The research was conducted as a single qualitative case study that enabled an in-depth investigation into how Fremantle Football Club’s culture and identity were formed and how they influenced its structure, strategy, behaviour and performance. Significantly, the research covered the entire history of the club since its inception in 1994, revealing three distinct periods in which culture and identity were strongly influenced by the values and beliefs of the club’s leaders, particularly the CEOs, as well as board members, senior management and coaches. The first period comprised a time of self-absorption with an inappropriate culture that saw it in frequent conflict with external stakeholders as on-field success eluded it.

It seems like only yesterday that we conducted our Tasmanian Team of the Century dinner in 2004, followed by our inaugural Hall of Fame induction dinner in 2005. This is just another example of how quickly a decade passes by when you work in an industry as dynamic as Australian Football. Over this decade 277 individuals have entered our Hall of Fame ‘club’ as inductees. We have elevated 40 of these men to Legend status and further elevated just 14 to become Icons of Tasmanian Football. To be one of just 14 Icons to have been identified in over 149 years of the game being played in Tasmania is very special indeed.
