  • The Bishop's Synod Charge 2009 the Rt Rev'd Gregory E Thompson
    The Bishop’s Synod Charge 2009 The Rt Rev’d Gregory E Thompson Welcome to the thirtieth synod of the Diocese of the Northern Territory. I acknowledge the traditional custodians, the Larrakia people on whose land we meet in order to give thanks for God’s faithfulness to us, to hear the stories and concerns on our hearts and minds and to seek to serve Christ with our best energies and insight for our Diocese and for the people of the Northern Territory. A Cord of Grace, Goodwill and Common Purpose When I travel this Diocese of over 1.3 million square kilometres, featuring desert, coastal, billabong, urban, outstation and agency communities, I wonder at the unique gifting of the landscape, cultures and the people that are within our Diocesan community. With such breadth and beauty comes extraordinary opportunity in our mission as Christ’s people but also these qualities bring significant tensions of holding our life together in its diversity and distance. I imagine often our church and community life like a string of pearls or precious gems from the Arafura Sea to the Simpson Desert – each pearl or gem unique but each one reliant on a cord of grace, goodwill and common purpose. Without the cord running through our different communities we are isolated and vulnerable before the social and spiritual challenges before us. Without a shared sense of direction under the good purposes of God, our contribution to God’s mission is unsustainable, for the weak give up without help and the strong in their own independence are not able to receive the necessary gifts from others.

  • School Fees Report 2019 Introduction
    School Fees Report 2019 Introduction With one in three Australian families sending their child to a non- Government school, private school fees are a huge investment for parents. Edstart’s School Fees Report helps you understand the trends in private school fees across the country. This year’s report analysed fees from over 300 schools, covering tuition, compulsory additional fees and boarding fees. Overall Trends Private school fees across Australia have risen by an average of 3.1% in 2019, which is slightly down from 3.2% last year. While almost 9% of schools reduced their fees or had no fee change, we found that over 84% of schools increased their fees by more than the current inflation rate of 1.8%*. Fee inflation also continued to outpace the average wage growth rate of 2.2%. While there was a small drop in school fee inflation this year, state-based fee analysis showed significant geographic variances. NSW and Victoria continued to lead the way with the highest average school fees and smallest percentage of schools where fees remained the same or were reduced. Western Australia saw the highest percentage of schools that did not raise their fees in 2019 and the lowest average increase in fees at merely 1.58%. On the other hand, ACT showed the highest fee increase of 5.07%. These statewide trends are caused by some of the key themes that are explained further below. A Tale of Three Parts While overall school fee trends were consistent with prior years, 2019 has generated the largest variety of school fee changes in many years.

Introduction Darwin has long held the desire to have its own prestigious, top of the market education facility, attractive not only to Territory students, but also the Northern Australian region and its nearby international neighbours, some as close as less than one hour flying time to Darwin. The Darwin International Grammar School concept was first raised in the early 1980’s when a group of leading local businessmen pursued the dream of a premium, private school that they saw was an important foundation not only for their own children, but as a lasting legacy for future generations.
