  • AUSTRALIA NEWSLETTER JANUARY 2014 FRANK L SCICLUNA - LINKING MALTA and AUSTRALIA EMAIL: [email protected] Website
    E-NEWSLETTER 26 –January 2014 26 CONSULATE OF MALTA IN SOUTH AUSTRALIA NEWSLETTER JANUARY 2014 FRANK L SCICLUNA - LINKING MALTA AND AUSTRALIA EMAIL: [email protected] Website: www.ozmalta.page4.me On Australia Day, 26 January, we come together as a nation to celebrate what's great about Australia and being Australian. It's the day to reflect on what we have achieved and what we can be proud of in our great nation. It's the day for us to re-commit to making Australia an even better place for the future. Australia Day, 26 January, is the anniversary of the arrival of the First Fleet of 11 convict ships from Great Britain, and the raising of the Union Jack at Sydney Cove by its commander Captain Arthur Phillip, in 1788. Though 26 January marks this specific event, today Australia Day celebrations reflect contemporary Australia: our diverse society and landscape, our remarkable achievements and our bright future. It also is an opportunity to reflect on our nation's history, and to consider how we can make Australia an even better place in future. On Australia Day, over half of the nation’s population of 21 million attend either an organised community event, or get together with family and friends with the intention of celebrating our national day. Many more spend the public holiday relaxing with family and friends. Yet Australia Day is much more than barbeques and fireworks. It is more than another public holiday. It is more than the pride and excitement of new citizens who call themselves Australian for the first time on 26 January after being conferred citizenship.

    Volume 7 Issue 9 Newsletter of the NSW State League Football Referees September 2019 71 Welcome to this seventy first edition of “The Referee”, the newsletter for all NSW State League Football Referees. This newsletter will enable our branch to communicate directly with our members and will cover issues and areas of interest to all referees. Please Note: This is a Grand Final Picture edition only. We wish to ensure that all information, educational resources and opportunities that our branch provides for referees finds its way to those who are likely to benefit most – and that’s you! Identify the mood or temperature of the game and use this awareness to ensure an adjustment in pace and/or increased involvement to prevent problems. “Tempo” is the key word here again. Games can go in cycles, where the tempo increases or decreases at different times in the game. As the referee seeking to maintain match control an approach which varies with the tempo of the game usually helps – for instance when the tempo is high, then being pickier over free kicks to slow the game down, playing less advantage and increasing communication with players usually helps. A low tempo game, where the players are looking to get on with playing football (fairly) allows the referee to take a more relaxed approach, allow trivial offences to go unpunished and play more advantage.

Learning about ANZAC Day helps young children to understand the life and times of Australia and its people. The ceremony and traditions are such an integral part of our culture that it gives us an opportunity to talk to children about the importance of ANZAC Day. 2 3 Mm,,,,,,MALTESE E-NEWSLETTER 370 April 2021 We are writing to let you know that, due to the current pandemic, we will unfortunately not be able to host our annual ANZAC Day commemoration on 25 April this year. Instead, we will hold a short, private wreath-laying ceremony which we will record and post on social media at @AusHCMalta and @NZinMalta later that day. We invite you to view it when convenient. Although we cannot commemorate the occasion together in Malta this year, we will nonetheless mark it solemnly and meaningfully. Ceremonies to mark the day have been held in Australia, New Zealand, Malta and in many other countries since 1916, initially to remember the first landing of the Australia and New Zealand Army Corps (the ANZACs) on the Gallipoli Peninsula in Turkey. Over the years, our commemoration has come to encompass all men and women from both our countries who have served in wars, conflicts and peace-keeping operations in many capacities.
