  • 2017 MANSW Annual Conference
    2017 yenMANSW Annual Conference Adjusting Your Altitude PLATINUM SPONSORS MANSW thanks the following sponsors for their support of the 2017 MANSW Annual Conference GOLD SPONSOR SILVER SPONSORS OTHER SPONSORS Pre-Dinner Drinks President’s Reception Sponsor Presenter Gifts Welcome to the 2017 MANSW Annual Conference Adjusting Your Altitude 2017 MANSW Annual Conference Adjusting Your Altitude A very warm welcome to the 2017 MANSW Annual Conference: “Adjusting Your Altitude”. In deciding to bring the MANSW Annual Conference to the Blue Mountains this year, I wanted our theme to be related to the mountains in some way. In particular, the graphic that we have used this year stood out to me as a graphic that epitomises our work as teachers. To teach effectively, it is not enough to explain our knowledge, experiences, to talk students through the journey they will go on, all the potholes they may fall in, how to navigate, how to plan for bad weather, how to move up the mountain… you have to walk it with them, and help them on the way, adjusting as you go. We are excited to be able to welcome many educators to our conference this year, and there are many notable events to look forward to. On Friday morning we have two excellent speakers: Mark Harrison and Angela D’Angelo. Mark Harrison has a background in Mathematics and Psychology and will speak to us about Growth Mindset, in particular how understanding student mindsets can deeply influence our effectiveness in the classroom. Angela D’Angelo, one of the recipients of a Premier’s Teaching Scholarship in 2016, will continue the conversation around Growth Mindset as well as discuss her journey over the last year.

  • Here More Longitudinal ATAR Data Is Available
    AN EXTENDED CASE STUDY: THE 2020 ATARS & WHAT THEY REVEAL With a special focus on James Ruse Agricultural High School Carlingford EDITED BY PASTOR RON WOOLLEY 2 0 2 1 INTRODUCTION PASTOR RON WOOLLEY JANUARY 2021 This case study looks outside of Queensland, especially to NSW, where more longitudinal ATAR data is available. It continues to explore academic themes raised in previous papers published in ACS eBooks, and ultimately seeks to provoke further discussion on alumni outcomes of Australian Christian schooling. Alumni outcomes were the focus of the Cardus Education Survey Australia 2019-2020, which essentially concluded ‘across all sectors within Australian education, Millennial graduates contribute to the common good by promoting flourishing and sustaining civic life in various ways’. Within this context of ‘the common good,’ ACS is looking closely at sectoral differences to see what Christian schooling may further learn from other sectors. ACS has initiated a second research project, emergent out of the CESA findings and drawing on that data, to “Conduct research to help the public understand the following question/ problem: What differences are revealed in the CES Australia findings when we engage in a detailed state-based analysis of the CES Australia data sets?" 2 The purpose of this project is to seek to identify, analyse and investigate a detailed state by state breakdown of the Cardus Education Survey (CES) Australia Christian school data sets, paying particular attention to the geographical, socio-cultural, metropolitan/regional, and demographic profiles and dimensions that are evident within each Australian state and territory. As the CES Canada report of 2018 revealed “one of the main problems with existing (CES) data is… regional differences in the impact of independent schools on students’ lives have not been carefully considered”.

  • Annual Report
    Christian Schools Sports Association Annual Report Executive Officers Report 26 years ago on the 28 September 1988 the Christian Schools Sports Association was formed and became an incorporated body. Many of our founding Principals have retired in the past few years leaving the responsibility of upholding & maintaining their vision to foster Christian thought and practice through sporting events within and between schools with you and me. Many outside the Associations may ask “Why have a Christian Sports Association?” The motto of Covenant Christian School is "All Knowledge through Christ". They state: …..The Christian believes that there are no neutral facts, that everything is related to God and has significance beyond this life. ... Christian education involves every subject of knowledge.. ... Christian education requires a Christian point of view for the whole curriculum; a God-centred program in every department ... A Christian School seeks to be Christian every hour of the school day. www.covenant.nsw.edu.au/why-christian-school.html As sports teachers and coaches we have a unique relationship with our students. We have the opportunity to share our faith with them and show them what it means to be a Christian both on and off the sporting field. By doing this we are not only proclaiming the Kingdom of God but bringing glory & honour to our Lord Jesus Christ. A former coach from Washington Redskins “Vince Lombardi” was famous for his statement: “Winning isn’t the most important thing: it is the only thing” Shortly before Vince Lombardi died he declared: “I wish I’d never said it.

In Year 10 he left rowing — but after a chance passing in the corridor with his coach who was also his teacher, he came back one more time. Two years later he won his first rowing race — as a member of the Newington 1st VIII. The race was the 1997 GPS Head of the River. It would change his life but never his capacity to believe that the impossible was possible. James Chapman (Old Newingtonian ’97) Member of the Australian Coxless Fours, Silver Medallist, London Olympics 2012. Welcome, Our aim is to motivate boys to be well-rounded individuals who are fully prepared and confident in facing adulthood in the 21st century. We believe that in order to lead successful lives, boys must be motivated to learn, and this is fundamental to everything we offer at Newington. Newington’s four pillars of education — academic, pastoral, spiritual and co-curricular — are the foundations of the College’s liberal and holistic education. We encourage our boys to be open-minded and tolerant, to think freely and not be bound by traditional or conventional ideas; to be imaginative and creative; to be themselves — at their best.
