For residential colleges, we recommend you check with your institution to see which ones they have associations with and which ones have availability. You will then need to apply and agree to their fee schedule. For student apartments, talk to your institution to determine which ones are close by. You can often apply online or in person. As it is a significant expense, we recommend you take a tour of the facility, talk to some residents and talk to the staff. For more information see: iglu.com.au - urbanest.com.au How do I arrange a private rental? Many international students find it hard to take out the head lease of a property as it is very difficult to show references to the agent. Rather, they rent a room in an already rented place. You can find these rooms on flatmates.com.au as well as gumtree.com.au. Never provide any deposit until you have seen the place! Make sure you fully inspect the property before signing a contract, taking note (even dated photos) of any existing damage. Sharing with housemates can be cost effective but make sure you learn as much as possible about your potential housemates before you agree to move in. You also need to pay close attention to any contract you enter into. For more informations see: tenants.org.au (for rental advice) flatmates.com.au (find a room in a place, very popular with international students) First Steps | insiderguides.com.au 12 BEFORE YOU TAKE OUT A LEASE ON A PROPERTY: First Steps First 1 Ensure you have enough money to cover the Bond 2 Arrange a Reference or Guarantor 3 Inspect the property 4 Photograph any existing damage or issues 5 Carefully read your rental agreement before signing it 6 Make sure you receive, and keep, a copy of your rental agreement 7 Establish who is responsible for utilities 8 Pay attention to details regarding the end of your rental agreement What should I recycle at home?

  • The Seven Ages of Musical Theatre: the Life Cycle of the Child Performer
    UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON The Seven Ages of Musical Theatre: The life cycle of the child performer by Lyndsay Barnbrook A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Humanities Faculty School of Music April 2016 \A person's a person, no matter how small." Dr. Seuss UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON Abstract Humanities Faculty School of Music Doctor of Philosophy The Seven Ages of Musical Theatre: The life cycle of the child performer by Lyndsay Barnbrook The purpose of the research reported here is to explore the part played by children in musical theatre. It aims to do this on two levels. It presents, for the first time, an historical analysis of involvement of children in theatre from its earliest beginnings to the current date. It is clear from this analysis that the role children played in the evolution of theatre has been both substantial and influential, with evidence of a number of recurring themes. Children have invariably made strong contributions in terms of music, dance and spectacle, and have been especially prominent in musical comedy. Playwrights have exploited precocity for comedic purposes, innocence to deliver difficult political messages in a way that is deemed acceptable by theatre audiences, and youth, recognising the emotional leverage to be obtained by appealing to more primitive instincts, notably sentimentality and, more contentiously, prurience. Every age has had its child prodigies and it is they who tend to make the headlines. However the influence of educators and entrepreneurs, artistically and commercially, is often underestimated. Although figures such as Wescott, Henslowe and Harris have been recognised by historians, some of the more recent architects of musical theatre, like Noreen Bush, are largely unheard of outside the theatre community.

  • Liberal Party of Australia, New South Wales Division Objection to Proposed Redistribution
    1 LIBERAL PARTY OF AUSTRALIA, NEW SOUTH WALES DIVISION OBJECTION TO PROPOSED REDISTRIBUTION 1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1.1. The Liberal Party of Australia, New South Wales Division (the “Liberal Party”) objects to the redistribution proposed by the Redistribution Committee for New South Wales. This objection is lodged with the Electoral Commission pursuant to section 69 of the Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918. 1.2. In summary the Liberal Party objects to the following: (a) Wentworth/Kingsford Smith/Sydney – the Liberal Party objects to the proposed boundaries between these three divisions. The primary basis for the objection is that these proposed boundaries do not give due consideration to community of interests within Wentworth and community of interests within Sydney. (b) Paterson/Newcastle – the Liberal Party objects to the proposed boundary between these two divisions. The primary basis for the objection is that the proposed boundary does not give due consideration to community of interests within Paterson, especially for the Port Stephens local government area. (c) Country New South Wales and western Sydney – the Liberal Party objects to the boundaries for the proposed divisions of Macquarie, Calare, Parkes and Parramatta (with consequential effects for some other proposed divisions in country New South Wales and western Sydney).The primary bases for the objections are that the proposed boundaries: (i) do not give due consideration to community of interests between Bathurst and Orange, 2 (ii) do not give due consideration to community of interests between the Blue Mountains and the Hawkesbury region, (iii) are based upon an erroneous conclusion about the strength of communities of interest between Bathurst area and the Blue Mountains, (iv) result in a division of Parkes which is far too large, and (v) split Parramatta CBD from the division of Parramatta.
