  • Spring Edition – No: 48
    Spring Edition – No: 48 2015 Commonwealth Vocational Education Scholarship 2015. I was awarded with the Premier Teaching Scholarship in Vocational Education and Training for 2015. The purpose of this study tour is to analyse and compare the Vocational Education and Training (Agriculture/Horticulture/Primary Industries) programs offered to school students in the USA in comparison to Australia and how these articulate or prepare students for post school vocational education and training. I will be travelling to the USA in January 2016 for five weeks. While there, I will visit schools, farms and also attend the Colorado Agriculture Teachers Conference on 29-30th January 2016. I am happy to send a detailed report of my experiences and share what I gained during this study tour with all Agriculture teachers out there. On the 29th of August I went to Sydney Parliament house where I was presented with an award by the Minister of Education Adrian Piccoli.

  • CHS Rowing History
    CHS ROWING 1964 - 2017 Homebush Boys High School – Champion School of the inaugural season of CHS competition shown holding the Mosman Rowing Club Shield for 1 st Tub Pairs and the NSW Rowing Association Perpetual Trophy for the winner of the annual pointscore. An Historical Study Peter Bond November 2017 CHS Rowing – a History This chronicle gives a history of CHS Rowing covering the fifty one championship regattas conducted between 1965 and 2017. Historical Perspective The first NSW schools to be involved in rowing were private schools that became members of the AAGPS when that body was formed in 1892. The first GPS rowing championship was conducted in 1893 with the Head of the River regatta being continuous since then except for a period of six years during the Second World War. The first government school to participate in rowing was Sydney Boys High which joined the GPS competition in 1924. Sydney Boys HS First Four 1924 – note the poppet oarlocks The first school outside Sydney to take an interest in the sport was the Maclean District Rural School where a three man butcher boat was built by the students of the manual class in 1936. Two more equivalent boats were purchased by the school in 1937 and 1938 with intra-school racing beginning in 1937. The first inter- school regatta took place between Maclean and Grafton High in 1943 using the Maclean boats, a situation that continued until 1946 when Grafton High bought four butcher boats of their own. School regattas have continued on the Northern Rivers since that time with the Head of the Clarence at Grafton being one of the biggest school regattas in the country.

  • EXCELLENCE 3 2021 Minister’S and Secretary’S Awards for Excellence for Awards and Secretary’S 2021 Minister’S
    We Give Life-Changing Scholarships Minister’s and Secretary’s 2021 Awards for EXCELLENCE WELCOME Once again, it is a great privilege to present the winners of the Minister’s and Secretary’s Awards for Excellence. These Awards celebrate the exceptional work that occurs every day across NSW public education – by schools, students, teachers, employees and WELCOME parents. In 2021, the standard is as high as ever and perhaps even more impressive as this work has been undertaken against the backdrop of a pandemic. The Public Education Foundation is proud to manage the Minister’s and Secretary’s Awards as part of our mission to showcase the best of public schooling. We are grateful to the Hon. Sarah Mitchell MLC, Minister for Education and Early Childhood Learning, and Ms Georgina Harrisson, Secretary of the NSW Department of Education, for entrusting us with this responsibility. Of course, we had been hoping that we would be meeting on 6 September for a formal Awards ceremony, but COVID-19 means that for a second year running we are recognising our winners locally in their school environments. That does nothing to diminish the quality of the winners we are celebrating. You’ll read here about outstanding contributions and innovative initiatives from across NSW, from a Stage 5 Moving Forward program at Hoxton Park High to a Learning for Life Cafeteria at Moree East Public School. Finally, I want to share a quick reminder that our 2022 scholarship round for primary and secondary schools is now open. We’ve got hundreds of scholarships to award, including new scholarships for students starting high school and many new Acacia scholarships for regional schools in particular.

    We Give Life-Changing Scholarships 2020 Minister’s and Secretary’s Awards for Excellence Welcome It is an absolute pleasure to present the winners of the 2020 Minister’s and Secretary’s Awards for Excellence. These Awards showcase the exceptional work that occurs every day across NSW public education – by schools, students, teachers, employees and parents. One of the Public Education Foundation’s primary roles is to celebrate the best of public schooling, and the Minister’s and Secretary’s Awards do that in spades. The Foundation is proud to manage the Awards on behalf of The Hon. Sarah Mitchell MLC, Minister for Education and Early Childhood Learning and Mr Mark Scott AO, Secretary of the NSW Department of Education. In normal times, we would be meeting this week for a large Awards ceremony, but this year COVID-19 means that we are recognising our winners locally in their school environments. That does nothing to diminish the quality of the winners we are celebrating. You will read here about outstanding contributions and innovative initiatives from across NSW, from community drought relief at Trundle Central School to Wellbeing Wednesday at Canterbury Boys High. Finally, I want to share a quick reminder that our 2021 scholarship round for primary and secondary students are closing soon. We have hundreds of scholarships to award, including new scholarships for Indigenous and regional and remote students. Head to our website and take a look! We hope to see you back in person for next year’s Award ceremony. David Hetherington Executive
