Rugby Player in the Region and and Members for Their Tireless Efforts THE BulletinAPRIL 2013 The Magazine of the Nelson College Community 1 From the Acting Headmaster – Mr Tim Tucker The staff and students of the school have been busy in recent months. Even more gratifying is that the industry has been rewarded with many many fantastic results. It remains that the provision of high quality courses and the best possible education for our boys are our greatest priorities. The opening of the Gibbons Trade Education Centre is one example of the Old Boys, Community and College working together to provide the best for our boys. The Centre is a modern purpose-built facility which is providing students with the highest quality preparation for a career in their chosen trades area. I would like to acknowledge all the sponsors and supporters of this project but especially the Gibbons family. The family was personally involved in the project at all stages and willingly gave considerable time and resources to ensure the highest quality results. The Education Review Office visited the school in August 2012 to assess the quality of teaching and learning occurring at Nelson College. The ERO visit involves a great deal of investigative work from their team and extensive review of our courses and policies. Nelson College is one of only 15% of schools nationwide to receive the highest grade of review. The grade of review is measured by the length of time until the next visit – ours will be five years! Perhaps most importantly it is reassurance from the highest level that we are delivering high quality learning in a positive and motivating environment or as ERO put it, "students are highly engaged in learning" ... further evidence of the College's effective strategies to engage all students in learning and the life of the school. The words of ERO were reinforced by excellent NCEA results. These results continue a trend of steady improvement and have the shared strengths of a high level of participation as well as excellence. To identify a very few highlights, 88% of Year 11 students gained Level One, 84% of Year 12 gained Level Two and 78% of Year 13 gained Level Three. All of these were well above the national average. The boys at all three levels gained a greater percentage of Merit and Excellence grades, in some cases outperforming the average for boys in decile ten schools. We gained 24 scholarships which is the most for a very long time. This number of scholarships puts Nelson College among the top performing schools in New Zealand. Such meritorious academic achievement has been matched by the co-curricular programmes too. Boys at Nelson College were awarded 56 board of trustees medallions. These are awarded to students who gain National Representative honours or attain a national title. Boys have been selected to represent New Zealand in Softball, Volleyball, Basketball, and Shakespeare and have won titles in Rowing, Rockquest to name a few. The full list of achievements is reported later in this magazine. A busy year has passed with another one in progress. Many wonderful achievements have occurred already with medals gained at rowing’s Maadi Cup, a second place for the Softball team and third place for the Volleyballers in the top division national competitions. We also look forward to hosting the Quadrangular Tournament this year in late July. Thank you for your interest in a special school.

  • Scrublands Chris Hammer
    AUGUST 2018 Scrublands Chris Hammer Set in a fictional Riverina town at the height of a devastating drought, Scrublands is one of the most powerful, compelling and original crime novels to be written in Australia. Sales points • Set to be one of the biggest debuts of 2018 • A riveting and stunning addition to a burgeoning genre - the Small-Town Secrets Crime Thriller • A brilliant mix of page-turning plot, unforgettable characters, and an evocation of the Australian landscape that makes you feel the heat and taste the dust. • Major marketing campaign and big author tour • CATEGORY: Crime fiction Description In an isolated country town brought to its knees by endless drought, a charismatic and dedicated young priest calmly opens fire on his congregation, killing five parishioners before being shot dead himself. A year later, troubled journalist Martin Scarsden arrives in Riversend to write a feature on the anniversary of the tragedy. But the stories he hears from the locals about the priest and incidents leading up to the shooting don't fit with the accepted version of events his own newspaper reported in an award-winning investigation. Martin can't ignore his doubts, nor the urgings of some locals to unearth the real reason behind the priest's deadly rampage. Just as Martin believes he is making headway, a shocking new development rocks the town, which becomes the biggest story in Australia. The media descends on Riversend and Martin is now the one in the spotlight. His reasons for investigating the shooting have suddenly become very personal. Wrestling with his own demons, Martin finds himself risking everything to discover a truth that becomes darker and more complex with every twist.

  • “Whiskey in the Jar”: History and Transformation of a Classic Irish Song Masters Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment Of
    “Whiskey in the Jar”: History and Transformation of a Classic Irish Song Masters Thesis Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Dana DeVlieger, B.A., M.A. Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2016 Thesis Committee: Graeme M. Boone, Advisor Johanna Devaney Anna Gawboy Copyright by Dana Lauren DeVlieger 2016 Abstract “Whiskey in the Jar” is a traditional Irish song that is performed by musicians from many different musical genres. However, because there are influential recordings of the song performed in different styles, from folk to punk to metal, one begins to wonder what the role of the song’s Irish heritage is and whether or not it retains a sense of Irish identity in different iterations. The current project examines a corpus of 398 recordings of “Whiskey in the Jar” by artists from all over the world. By analyzing acoustic markers of Irishness, for example an Irish accent, as well as markers of other musical traditions, this study aims explores the different ways that the song has been performed and discusses the possible presence of an “Irish feel” on recordings that do not sound overtly Irish. ii Dedication Dedicated to my grandfather, Edward Blake, for instilling in our family a love of Irish music and a pride in our heritage iii Acknowledgments I would like to thank my advisor, Graeme Boone, for showing great and enthusiasm for this project and for offering advice and support throughout the process. I would also like to thank Johanna Devaney and Anna Gawboy for their valuable insight and ideas for future directions and ways to improve.

The Makos gained respect in New Zealand rugby by the way they played the game and were justifiably rewarded in winning the championship final in a very tense encounter against Hawkes Bay in Nelson.
