Virginia has a wealth of experience and is a valuable addition to the team. Dana has picked up some classes in Media and Terry has picked up some classes in Photography. We hope the change of staff mid semester has been smooth. We also have Sarah from the University of Canberra who is completing her final pre-service placement. We are looking forward to art camp from Friday 18th to Monday 21st of May. Student response has been fantastic and we are at capacity with a waiting list. Friday to Monday was chosen to have minimum impact on classes.The intention is to run the camp as a ‘field study’ art experience where students will be able to attend a variety of workshops on topics and techniques which usually would be unavailable during their regular classes.This camp would be a valuable opportunity for students who are interested in further study in the arts to extend their art making process and to further develop their art folio. At the end of the camp we are to have completed work for an exhibition, opening at Lake G and possibly for display in a gallery space (still being investigated). Congratulations to Hayley Steel in year 12 for her work ‘Sempre’ which is a finalist (5 paintings from 1400) in the national competition the Young Archie 2018.This is a prestigious award which is hotly contested and is a credit for Hayley being selected as a finalist. Hayley was also joint winner of Lake Idol and will be performing a gig at The Lighthouse (Belconnen) in June, stay tuned for the dates.

    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Elise and the Gold Gloop by S.B. Davies S.B. Davies. At the age of six, my daughter was a good reader for her age, but refused to start reading “proper books” with chapters and no pictures. She was bored with “Horrid Henry” and fairies saving a rainbow yet once more and insisted that she was old enough to read proper books, but every one she tried was “too difficult”. It wasn’t she couldn’t read them, it was the concepts and storylines; they were all designed for nine and ten year olds. There was another problem too. She wanted to read about girls, yet all the books about girls we could find were twee and dull. My daughter is happy to read about a princess, along as she is a Ninja Princess; happy to save rainbows, as long as it involves a good sword fight or perhaps a well-planned heist. After a few months of this, my lovely daughter stopped reading. We tried most of the “first chapter books” that people recommend; all met with disinterest. So I asked her exactly what she wanted in a “proper book”. After much though, she wrote down: “Dragons, princess, zombies, vampires, ghosts, but not spiders and it should be funny and scary and have fighting in it.” We couldn’t find such a book with concepts and vocabulary suitable for a six year old – so I wrote one. I had written novels before, but not a children’s book, so I had help from my daughter to find the right level.

  • Game Day Program
    ROUND 14 GAME DAY PROGRAM V 17 JANUARY 7PM TIP-OFF NCCC GAME PREVIEW A couple weeks later than originally planned, but the first UC Capitals’ first home game of 2020 is here. The game also marks the first of four the UC Capitals are due to play within just 10 days. It’s going to be grueling and opportunities to train will be limited, but it may also spark the momentum the UC Capitals need as they look to playoffs. The UC Capitals are coming off two uncharacteristic losses to the two bottom teams, the Bendigo Spirit and Townsville Fire. Despite some lackluster offense, Head Coach Paul Goriss was mostly disappointed with the team’s defense letting the Spirit and Fire away with 94 and 102 points respectively. Fortunately, the UC Capitals held their third-place spot on the ladder but there’s little keeping the Adelaide Lightning from taking over as they sit too close for comfort behind us. Earlier in the week there was hope that Kelsey Griffin may be healthy enough to make her return as she started training again. However, in another potential setback for the UC Capitals, Griffin hurt her hamstring on Tuesday. While the injury is minor, it means the team will have to make do until she’s given the all clear. So, the UC Caps will charge ahead into Friday night’s game with the MVP on the sideline as they desperately try to find their rhythm again before they enter their toughest run of the season. The Melbourne Boomers’ star import Lindsay Allen sat out of their last game against the Southside Flyers and it is currently unknown whether she’ll be back in for Friday.
