Students were given the opportunity to participate in a variety of educational programs with a focus on Austral- ia’s history, culture, heritage and democracy. The Australian Government recognises the importance of all young Australians being able to visit the national capital as part of their Civics and Citizenship education. To assist families in meeting the cost of the excursion the Australian Government is contributing funding of $30 per student under the Parlia- ment and Civics Education Rebate program towards those costs. The rebate is paid directly to the school upon completion of the excursion. Parents of children who attended the 2016 Canberra Tour will have the rebate credited to their school account and they may use it to help cover future school costs. Some of the many positive statements made by the students are included below. I think the Canberra Camp was a great experience and I highly recommend it as a great fun and exciting learning experience for other schools. Adrianna The Australian Institute of Sport was an awesome experience to see the swimming, men’s gymnastics and men’s volleyball. The new and old Parliament Houses were both very exciting to see and it was great to see where the pol- iticians, Speaker and Prime Minister sit. It was also great to sit in the Senate and House of Representa- tives. Mikayla My favourite place in Canberra was the Royal Australian Mint because it was fascinating to see how the coins were made. Bridget K My Canberra experience was brilliant! We went to Telstra Tower and I went to the outside part that was 166 metres high and 850 metres above sea level. Noah The Australian War Memorial was fabulous because there were weapons, uniforms, vehicles and much more. Jed As a student, I would highly recommend a Canberra Camp for the school, full of learning opportunities and great experiences. Kate My favourite thing to do was to test my bravery on the free fall at Questacon. It’s a vertical slide where you hang on to a bar above the slide and you have to have enough confidence to let go and slide down it. Oliver The new Parliament was fantastic. I liked seeing the House of Representatives and the Senate. I came out of there with a brain full of knowledge. Finlay Excellent is one of the words to describe this year’s Canberra Camp. Every day I woke up wondering what exciting things we’d do today. On the last day I felt we needed a longer stay because time had gone way too fast. Canberra has stunning scenery and architecture.

  • Re: Canberra Study Tour for Year 6 Students in 2020
    Re: Canberra Study Tour For Year 6 students in 2020 Dear Parents The school is offering students in Year 6 (2020) the opportunity to visit Canberra as part of their educational experience. The trip will cover many curriculum outcomes across the learning areas of Humanities and Social Sciences, Physical Education, Science and The Arts. This unique opportunity for students to visit the Capital of Australia provides them time to experience iconic places like the Australian War Memorial, New Parliament House, High Court of Australia, National Gallery of Australia, various Embassies and the Australian Institute of Sport. The Canberra Study Tour has been scheduled from Sunday 10 May to Thursday 14 May 2020. In order to progress planning for this tour we need to receive your expressions of interest to the school by Thursday 20 June 2019 as air tickets, accommodation and travel arrangements need to be booked well in advance in order to secure the best pricing. The projected cost of the trip without any fundraising will be approximately $1800 per student. This would include flights, accommodation (4 nights), all meals and entry to all venues and attractions. The Federal Government rebate and additional P & C fundraising may reduce the overall cost for parents. The anticipated final cost for parents is approximately $1250. Payment plans can be set up to assist in meeting the cost. This involves setting up a recurring direct deposit into the school bank account. We would like as many students as possible to attend and want to make it easy for families to set up a payment plan if it would be of benefit.

We believe that the social, emotional, moral, spiritual and physical wellbeing of our students is pivotal to student health, safety, learning and success. FRIDAY 28th FEBRUARY TERM 1 NO MASS WEEK 5 SORRY SERVICE Wednesday Yr 4 Level 26th February 2020 ASSEMBLY 2.30pm Yr 4 & Yr 5 Camp Reflection Dear Parents, Today we celebrate Ash Wednesday. Ash Wednesday begins the holy season, marking the start of the 40 days leading up to Easter (not including Sundays). This 40-day period is known as Lent, and it usually includes a focus on fasting and prayer. The ashes used in the Mass today originated from the burning of palms from the previous year. As we are marked today with Ash, we begin our journey through Lent and prepare for the wonder of Easter. The ashes remind us that even though we don’t always live God’s way, if we ask God to forgive us, we will receive forgiveness and love. Thank you to Fr Isuru for celebrating Mass with the school community this morning and to Mrs Nettleingham for all her organisation. Shrove Tuesday Yesterday the school celebrated Shrove Tuesday with a special morning tea of delicious pancakes. A big thank you to all the wonderful parents and grandparents that cooked and served over 500 pancakes to some very excited children.

  • The Next Chapter in the City's Heritage Starts Here
    THE NEXT CHAPTER IN THE CITY’S HERITAGE STARTS HERE Brick kilns at the Canberra Brickworks, 1926. National Archives of Australia: A3560, 167 Above: The quarry face at Canberra Brickworks 1920s. National Archives of Australia: A3560, 1145 Right: Patent for the Staffordshire kiln, 1956. National Archives of Australia: A2445, M8939B A VISION TO MAKE CANBERRA GREAT The Canberra Brickworks was established in 1913 and has played a significant role in the building of the nation’s capital. For its time, the infrastructure was leading technology, adapted from a design from England. The landmark Staffordshire kiln is now the last of its kind in Australia. The Canberra Brickworks closed several times when manufacturers were needed more urgently elsewhere. Production rates hit an all-time high in the 1950s as Canberra experienced its first population boom. By the mid-1970s, technology and housing trends had changed, new materials and modern techniques meant that the old brickworks was no longer needed and it closed in 1976. THE CITY’S FOUNDATIONS The enduring mark of the Canberra Brickworks is still evident today. Throughout inner Canberra the iconic red bricks, given their colour and parochial character by the clay used in surrounding quarries, feature in many homes and significant government buildings including Old Parliament House and Hotel Canberra (now the Hyatt Hotel Canberra). The quintessentially Canberran red brick homes line the streets of suburbs such as Reid, Ainslie and Campbell. When construction of Old Parliament House began in 1923, the project was so large that a rail system was established to transport bricks to the site.

    Black Mountain Summit Walk What you’ll find Enjoy native plants and animals and spectacular views of Canberra from one of Australia’s most well- known mountains. Walk through the Australian National Botanic Gardens (ANBG) and Black Mountain Nature Reserve (BMNR) to the summit of Black Mountain. The path climbs quite steeply through dry sclerophyll forest comprising Scribbly Gum (Eucalyptus rossii), Red Stringybark (Eucalyptus macrorhyncha) and Cherry Ballart (Exocarpos cupressiformis). Many shrubs, herbs and grasses in the understorey add colour, especially in spring, and the bird life is abundant. The summit viewing platform (812 metres above sea level) has great views of Canberra and Telstra Tower. Telstra Tower has three viewing platforms which are open from 9.00 am to 10.00 pm daily. Admission is $7.50 for adults and $3.00 for children and concession card holders. The 40 minute, 2 km Forest Track circles the summit of Black Mountain and affords excellent views across Canberra. Dogs and other domestic pets and bicycles are not allowed. Sturdy footwear and water are recommended.
