St James Girls QISSN Netball Team with Ms Romelda Aiken. St James Boys QISSN Netball Teams 1 & 2 with Ms Romelda Aiken. We are also proud of our commissioned design by Kulkarawa Meeanjinu which will be the theme design of our clothing at the Carnival and thank Struddys for their support in this art. The artwork denotes communities coming together as one. The hand symbolises Mirir (Turrbal word for God) reaching down to embrace and bring people, represented by the U shapes, together from different walks of life. The spiritual essence of this artwork is unity with Mirir imparting blessings upon each individual and the gathering of the community. We were thrilled to have Firebird Player Ms Romelda Aiken come and watch, meet and work with our three Teams on Monday along side Ms Tracey Bruce, past Australian Player. Students were very inspired by Romelda and her background. Romelda was impressed with the skills of our students. Ms Romelda Aiken with Vicky Wilberforce (left) and Cheyenne Pickering (right). The Jamaican born athlete Romalda Aiken (6’6”, 1.98 metres) reached Australian shores in 2008 and has since won three ANZ Championship ‘Player of The Year’ titles, as well as representing Jamaica in multiple international tournaments. Not to mention playing a major role in leading the Queensland Firebirds to three premierships across her Australian career to date. The unique 2020 season was notable for Romelda, where she finished first in the league for offensive rebounds (110) and second for goals scored (583) across the whole league. Determined to add another premiership to her resume, the return of her dynamic partner in crime, Gretel Bueta, might just help her do so as she enters her 14th season with the Firebirds. Off the court Romelda has completed a course in both hairdressing and IT, however, has favoured her passion for coaching in the recent years. Above L-R: Ms Ann Rebgetz, Ms Romelda Aiken and Ms Tracy Bruce. Below L-R: Ms Romelda Aiken, Blessing Tukumbane, Baraka Ruhirika and Mr Atem Atem. ONE IN FOUR CHILDREN Gala Event at St James College – A Great Success! Congratulations to Stephen Kamal, and his team, and thanks to the many who assisted - it was a wonderful evening last Saturday night and our students were very impressive! Well done to Samuel Silver as MC for the evening! Since its foundation by Stephen Kamal (a former refugee from then war torn Nuba Mountains area in Sudan) in October 2019, One in Four, has managed to deliver 50,000 books to Papua New Guinea and Sudan, as well as deliver 20 packs to Papua New Guinea that were generously delivered by the QUT Vice Chancellor. Overall, the foundation has set up 15 schools with books and have affected 750,000 lives. Professor Margaret Sheil Vice Chanceller QUT and QUT Faculty Heads attended and were strongly supportive! Stephen and friends (other Jimmies graduates) graduated from QUT. The other guests involved a range of supporters, but all were impressed by the very entertaining focussed evening and its goals. (Pictured below far left, Prof Margaret Sheil, Mr Stephen Kamal & Ms Ann Rebjetz) Congratulations to Mr Andrew Ebrington, who received a special award for his role in helping drive the agenda! St James College along with Iona College (Fr Michael Twigg) received a beautiful award trophy for our support. And a big thank you and commendations to Mr Josateki Tora with the two wonderful dance troupes, Assistant Principal Identity & Global Identity Mr Isikeli Kubunameca in facilitating as well, Deputy Principal Mr Marty Wiseman running the door prizes, Ms Janet Beaman for helping with set up, Ms Louise Pope in facilitating student assistance as well, Gregory Terrace students who helped in selling tickets and catering, staff who attended the event, Mr Bruce Bitossi who organised and helped on Saturday, Mr Tony Holloway, Mr Perry Patel and team, Mr Alex Blann in planning, Mr David Cantwell with set up and AV, Ms Maria Young and administration for organising raffle and programs, Mr Atem Atem, Ms Hope Mugalihya and all others for all their support. Those others who entertained were impressive – beautiful singers. We were all inspired by the speeches of Dr Joseph Yunis, graduate of St James and now a virologist! His story of arriving on Australian shoes as a teenager and being told TAFE was the answer, but then finding St James changed his life as then he completed Year 12 and furthered his studies at UQ. Overall, the event yielded some good funds and awareness, but also saw the incredible outcomes of the Jimmies schooling and its network and the impact of these young people so grateful for their education wanting to help and eradicate the shocking statistic of one in four children world-wide who are illiterate and not receiving an education! We also thank One In Four for their donation towards our College Bursary Fund. Dr Joseph Yunis Bursary Fund Donations We thank you for your generous support of our fund and are grateful that our number of donors has doubled from last year and that total fund amount will double. We await to hear the total count! Student Achievements On Monday 30 students in Years 7-10 took part in a whole day Debating Clinic at school with external coaches led by Mr Vadim Frolov and Mr Paddy Harten. It was terrific to see the keenness of our students and for them to develop their thinking and speaking skills! Congratulations to Fund Raisers for Immersion trip, Amir Shirvani and Alireza Bagherishahkhali, who organised a Persian Dinner Experience of Cooking and Dining on Monday evening – thank you to Feizah for teaching us how to cook the beautiful meal and then enjoy it Persian style. It was a fitting acknowledgement of refugee week and the wonderful cultural contribution of refugees to Australian society.

    Issue No. 3405 The AlloraPublished by C. A. Gleeson Pty.Advertiser Ltd., at the Office, 53 Herbert Street, Allora, Q. 4362 “Since 1935” Issued Weekly as an Advertising Medium to the people of Allora and surrounding Districts. Your FREE Local Ph 07 4666 3128 - E-Mail [email protected] - Web www.alloraadvertiser.com THURSDAY, 4th AUGUST 2016 Allora Sports Museum Proud of Laura Geitz Should the people fo Allora associate themselves with a serial heartbreaker? Of course we should! We love her and are very, very proud of her. Last year Laura Geitz and her champion Firebirds team broke the hearts of the N.S.W. fans when the Swifts were defeated by 1 point by the firebirds in the ANZ Netball Championship Grand Final. Last Sunday, not only did she re-break their hearts, but ripped them out of their chests without mercy. The coronary inducing double extra time final showed why these girls are deserving of back to back premierships. The Swifts arrived at Boondall with an unbeatable match plan with Swifts G.K. Sharni Layton (she must be the netball equivalent of NRL heckler Michael Ennis) primed to upset the long Jamaican shooter Romelda Aiken. However, they didn’t OK this match plan with Geitz! In typical Laura style, she was humble in accepting the trophy, taking no individual credit and instead praising her very talented team. We are very proud that Laura is the face of the Allora Regional Sports Museum and wish her all the best in 2017, whether she continues playing or enjoys retirement.
