  • Cricket Fifteen Wesley Teams Contested the A.P.S
    Manning of Boats Rowing at Wesley College received an impetus in 1984 through the generosity of two loyal benefactors. On Wednesday, 4th April, two new boats were named at a special ceremony, one built solely and the other partly by our Boatman, Mr. Frank Steven. The gathered audience was addressed by the Principal, who spoke of the devotion and close ties to Wesley shown by Mr. Gordon Newton and Mr. Jack Joel, who donated the boats and after whom they were named. Mrs. June Newton carried out the ceremony for "The Newton" and Mrs. Karen Joel, the "Jack M. Joel". The First and Second Crews then launched the new boats and the spectators were able to see the crews row past. At the Naming of the New Boats. Cricket Fifteen Wesley teams contested the A.P.S.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract of Thesis This thesis examines the birth of secondary education for Jews in England, focusing on the middle classes as defined in the text. This study explores various types of secondary education that are categorised under one of two generic terms - Jewish secondary education or secondary education for Jews. The former describes institutions, offered by individual Jews, which provided a blend of religious and/or secular education. The latter focuses on non-Jewish schools which accepted Jews (and some which did not but were, nevertheless, attended by Jews). Whilst this work emphasises London and its environs, other areas of Jewish residence, both major and minor, are also investigated.

  • Volume 16 Issue 1 February 7Th, 2014 Year of Learning and Growing Together
    How wonderful it was to welcome our school community last week. Two hundred and ten enthusiastic Year Seven students arrived and were so excited to commence their first day at Secondary school. They were joined by our Year Twelve students who were also ‘excited’ to commence their final year of school. I always think how special it is on this day when we have students who are just embarking on their journey sharing the day with students who have arrived at the final stretch. To see them stand together From the Principal is quite poignant. On the next day, the remainder of the student body arrived with a great sense of anticipation and energy. The Xavier family was ready to begin another Volume 16 Issue 1 February 7th, 2014 year of learning and growing together. This year we welcome new members of staff to our teaching community: Renee Blyth (HSIE), Clair Bonarius (Science), Troy Garrett (Science), Meaghan Ireland (PDHPE), Maria Mazzocchi (HSIE), Caryanne Moylan (RE and Liturgy Coordinator), Belinda Pearce (English), Mark Tynan (English and RE). We also welcome Melanie Daignault and Amanda Williams to the Kirinari team. I know that they will all make a special contribution to our Xavier community. In this newsletter we have included a full directory of all teaching and support staff at Xavier College in 2014. This year there is also a new model of leadership with two new positions being created: The Leader of Learning and the Leader of Well-Being. I have invited all members of the Leadership Team to contribute to this our first edition so that you may get to know them and have an understanding of their roles within the College.

  • Masters Considered a Report That After the Matches, Xavier College V. Scotch College, and Wesley College V
    ADAMSON IN PUBLIC LIFE 181 also prohibited. At the end of August, 1917, the Head­ masters considered a report that after the matches, Xavier College V. Scotch College, and Wesley College v. Melbourne Grammar School, on the previous week "war cries" had been used. On the evidence it appeared that the Wesley "war cry" had been used by a number of boys from Scotch College and Melbourne Grammar School. The Headmasters considered that the use of "war cries" constituted a "regrettable inci- dens", and a resolution was carried that as "war cries" were used at and after two recent football matches, and there were gatherings of boys to shout at each other after these matches, thus constituting "regrettable incidents", the Pub­ lic Schools competitions for the remainder of the year were suspended. The effect of this was that there were no com­ bined sports in 1917, and no cricket premiership. As soon as the Third Term commenced the captains of the six Associated Public Schools held a meeting, and sent a letter to the Headmasters, asking if under certain condi­ tions and under certain guarantees for the future the com­ petitions might be allowed to proceed. The Headmasters held a special meeting on 22nd Sep­ tember to consider this letter, and finally instructed the Hon. Secretary of the Headmasters to write to the Captains of the Public Schools in the following terms:— "The Headmasters regret that they cannot see their way to alter their decision of 30th August, but they fully appreciate the good motives which prompted the action of the Captains, and consider that had such a letter been re­ ceived before the meeting of 30th August, it might have materially influenced their attitude." The opinion was expressed that the meeting of the Pub­ lic School Captains to discuss matters concerning the general welfare of the schools was an excellent innovation, likely to have a far-reaching influence for good in the future.

  • What Works for Boys?
    Australian Regional Conference 2017 Bucking the trend - What works for boys? - a 2-day program designed to provoke discussion around current educational issues, the research and literature about what works for boys. “Observation and theory get on best when they are mixed together, both helping one another in the pursuit of truth” - Sir Arthur Eddington, 1934 In education, “What works?” is rarely the right question, for the simple reason that in education, just about everything works somewhere, and nothing works everywhere.” - Dylan William, 2016 This conference will feature keynote addresses by leading educational researchers and thinkers and will challenge some accepted educational views. There will also be the opportunities for delegates to participate in workshops and share good practice about boys’ schooling. The program is targeted at teachers and school leaders committed to learning more about the best practices for boys’ learning. Presentations and workshops will generate informed reflection and discussion about boys’ education To maximise impact and deepen learning we encourage educators to attend as school teams. Conference Themes: Bucking the trend - What works for boys? • Learning from research • Issues in boys’ education • Shaping the culture in a boys’ school • Leading change in classroom practice • Building boys’ self-esteem and confidence Presentations will also be referenced against the following AiTSL Australian Professional Standards for Teachers: • Know students and how they learn • Know the content and how to teach
