  • Talkabout July 2004
    Volume 7: No 2 July 2004 SCHOLARSHIP AWARDS Our Scholarship has taken a new form for this year. There were four applicants and two outstanding students could not be separated in scholastic attainments, practice teaching qualities and personality. What a quandary ! The two candidates : Cheryl Ann Fuller and Kristil-Rae Mobbs are both students in their final year of Bachelor of Education (Primary) (Honours) studies. Our available finances for this year amounted to $4,000, so, after a discussion with the interview panel and members of the Committee, it was decided to award a Scholarship of $2,000 to each of these candidates. We are confident that these students will be worthy recipients of our Scholarships. Cheryl Fuller Kristil Mobbs It should give a warm glow to all the generous donors to our Scholarship Fund to know that they have made possible such encouragement to our future teachers. The Scholarship Fund is over $38,000. IN MEMORIAM Rest in Peace Edith Pearl Hawker (nee Morton) Kenneth James Hoare (1955-56) (1948-50) in September 2003 on 17th April 2004.

  • Acacia Program Scholarship –Rural
    2022 INFORMATION SHEET ACACIA PROGRAM SCHOLARSHIP – RURAL NSW The Public Education Foundation’s Acacia Program Scholarship provides financial assistance and mentoring/career advice to high potential students, in need, attending schools in specific schools or school regions in Rural NSW (See basic eligibility section for complete list of eligible schools). The Acacia Program scholarship was designed to assist students in need who may otherwise not have the opportunity to reach their full potential. The scholarships are available to eligible students currently enrolled in Year 10 in the listed schools, with one scholarship available in each region. The scholarship has been established to enable alumni of Australian public schools to give back to their school region, and to public education more broadly, through scholarships, mentoring and advocacy. The scholarships aims to highlight to students the diversity of careers and possibilities available to them through the Australians who sponsor the award and have access to this network. We hope to show students: • Examples of people who have succeeded who come from where they come from, who they can relate to and see themselves in; and • Examples of people who are involved in a wide variety of careers and who are doing what they are interested in doing, to show them a path into the career they want. Each scholarship consists of a bursary of $1,000 per year for two years (total $2,000) to support the students’ studies whilst enrolled in high school, plus mentoring/career information opportunities with Acacia Fellow. The scholarship is to cover educational expenses such as: . Laptop, iPad or similar device .

  • Spring Edition – No: 48
    Spring Edition – No: 48 2015 Commonwealth Vocational Education Scholarship 2015. I was awarded with the Premier Teaching Scholarship in Vocational Education and Training for 2015. The purpose of this study tour is to analyse and compare the Vocational Education and Training (Agriculture/Horticulture/Primary Industries) programs offered to school students in the USA in comparison to Australia and how these articulate or prepare students for post school vocational education and training. I will be travelling to the USA in January 2016 for five weeks. While there, I will visit schools, farms and also attend the Colorado Agriculture Teachers Conference on 29-30th January 2016. I am happy to send a detailed report of my experiences and share what I gained during this study tour with all Agriculture teachers out there. On the 29th of August I went to Sydney Parliament house where I was presented with an award by the Minister of Education Adrian Piccoli.
