Hook retired in 1997 as a minister in the Greater Sydney Conference, Australia. An Australian by birth Hook has served the Church as a teacher at the elementary, academy and college levels, a missionary in Papua New Guinea, and as a local church pastor. In retirement he is a conjoint senior lecturer at Avondale College of Higher Education. He has authoredFlames Over Battle Creek, Avondale: Experiment on the Dora, Desmond Ford: Reformist Theologian, Gospel Revivalist, the Seventh-day Adventist Heritage Series, and many magazine articles. He is married to Noeleen and has two sons and three grandchildren. Paul Joseph Landa was a religion and history professor in North America. Early Life, Education, and Marriage Paul Joseph Landa was born in Constantine Province, Algeria, on January 31, 1941, when his parents, Eugene and Emmanuele (Baldino) Landa were missionaries. A younger sister, Ruth, was his only sibling.1 The family remained in Algeria until World War II ended2 and then transferred to France, first at Marseille and later at Angers.3 In 1951 they moved yet again so that Eugene could adopt the role of superintendent of the Israel Mission.4 Later, in 1954, Eugene was appointed to be the secretary of the French Oceania Mission.5 For Paul the five major moves during the first fifteen years of his life disrupted his early schooling, but he endured the circumstances without any apparent disadvantage. When he was sixteen he enrolled at the Australasian Missionary College (AMC), 1957, and repeated his last year of academy level education in order to be sure of his readiness for college level studies.

    INTRODUCTION This curriculum framework is a brief statement that provides the foundational worldview from which an Adventist teacher delivers the Australian National Curriculum. It is a concise statement of principles, values and threads that undergird and guide what we consider to be real, true and good. This worldview is shaped and permeated with our belief that Jesus is “the Way, the Truth, and the Life.” John 14:6. We also believe strongly that each teacher must teach from within their own authentic Christian journey and that their experiential relationship with Jesus will permeate all they say and do. This framework endorses the notion that rather than being Christians who happen to teach, we are wanting to teach Christianly. We wish to reveal a God who loves unconditionally. “To think Christianly is to accept all things with the mind as related, directly or indirectly, to man’s eternal destiny as the redeemed and chosen child of God.” Harry Blamires, The Christian Mind: How Should a Christian Think? , p. 44 Teaching is more than imparting information. Effective Christian teaching is transformational. It will take Romans 12:1-2 as its focus and try to nurture a discipleship response to God’s love in the lives of our students. This provides the basis for the term “threads” used in the Values and Response Threads section. Threads are simply the qualities or characteristics we desire as responses from our students. They help provide cohesion and linkage to everyday living. These Response Threads, like Values, will often overlap in various subject areas, and provide a discipleship response to God’s love.

An Indigenous Australian from Kuranda in far north Queensland, Sandra took time to visit Edinburgh during the week she was in Melbourne teaching cultural awareness to medical profession- als.

Radayn has played the didgeridoo inter- nationally and has many paintings exhibited in galler- ies across Australia. Both Sandra and Radayn spoke to the Year 10 History class who are studying race relations in Australia and the USA. They concluded their visit by presenting the College with several throwing boomerangs expertly painted by Radayn. - Mr Brooks Footy Colours for CFA A number of very passionate football supporters happily exchanged their school uniform for their team’s colours and a donation to the Warburton CFA. $177.00 was raised.

World youth impact Thailand Bangkok, Thailand nd you thought you came here for a nice vacation, to visit a new country, to hang out with Ayour friends,” said Pastor José Rojas with a chuckle, addressing the more than 1300 delegates on the opening night of the World Conference on Youth and Community Service: Impact 10/40, held in Bangkok, Thailand, December 30 to January 3. Pastor Rojas, director of Volunteer Ministries for the North American Division, was the principal speaker for the event. The conference was the first international youth conference organised by the Adventist Church and attracted young people from more than 70 countries. Before arriving at the conference, most participants were involved in one of about 30 service projects across Thailand. According to Pastor Gilbert Cangy, director of Youth Ministries for the South Pacific Division, this was an integral part of planning this event. Statistics “What sparked the imagination of all the leaders was the notion that the conference would be located in a part of the world where there is hardly any Christian presence and that the whole exercise would be driven by service and evangelism,” he recalls. “Thailand was seen as a place that that would provide a great opportunity to make a difference for God.” Pastor Cangy reports that young people from around the world—including 170 young people from the South Pacific Division—were involved in a variety of service activities.
