  • The Alliance of Girls' Schools Australasia
    ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF THE ALLIANCE OF GIRLS’ SCHOOLS (AUSTRALASIA) LTD Monday 23 May 2016 BRANCH REPORTS: WESTERN AUSTRALIA All ten girls’ schools in Western Australia are members of AGSA. This year we welcomed two new principal’s to our schools at the beginning of 2015; Kim Keipe at St Hildas Anglican Girls School and Kerrie Fraser at Mercedes College. In Term 4 we also welcomed Dr Kate Hadwen as Principal to Presbyterian Ladies College. In welcoming new principals, we also said farewell to Beth Blackwood who has been Principal at PLC for 18 years. Beth has been a generous contributor to AGSA serving on the National committee during her time at the school. She has been an inspirational leader of a girls’ school in Western Australia. We are fortunate that we will maintain our contact with Beth as the new Executive Officer of AHISA another important educational group. We try and hold at least one AGSA event each term during the year. In Term 1 we held a Year 12 leaders afternoon which was opened up to 6 members of each School’s student leadership team. This event was run by Senior Staff and Student Leaders of Perth College. It provided a rich opportunity for the girls to connect and share their ideas and thoughts on student leadership especially following the Student Leadership Conference that many of our schools sent girls too. In Term 2 we held a networking and dinner at Penrhos College for senior staff. There were approximately 100 people in attendance and we had the opportunity to hear from Cynthia Griffin, US Consul General based in Perth.

  • Robyn's Education Proposal Simone
    ROBYN MOORE’S EDUCATION PROPOSAL There are speakers who speak about education! There are speakers who share their inspiring stories. Robyn Moore is a speaker who changes peoples' experience and appreciation of the privileged work they do in Education...and gets them into ACTION and "back into their lives" (at work and home) no matter what CHANGES...POLICIES...or CIRCUMSTANCES are coming at them during these challenging times! Robyn Moore changes the attitudes, behaviours and LIVES of Educational Leaders, Teachers and Support Staff, so they not only fulfill their own potential, but also become "the significant person" in students' lives …and inspire them to seize their full potential! "BIG Words, BIG People…BIG Futures!" Question: What "outcomes" do you want your speaker to produce? Passion for Education/Vocation/Profession, Motivation, Inspiration, Entertainment, Communication Skills? More access to Leadership, Re-creation of Staff Culture, Change Management Skills, Re- engagement, Teamwork, Life Balance, Relationships, Partnerships with Staff, Parents, Students and Community, Emotional Intelligence …or a specific request? Robyn's presentations are tailored to your Brief as well as being designed to: • Re-ENGAGE your staff /students/parents with their whole LIFE… (their Vocation/Job, Purpose, Family, Relationships, Community…Themselves!) • Re-ALIGN staff with your school's Vision, Values and Goals. • Re-INVENT attitudes and behaviours…attendees access personal responsibility and self- determination. The bi-products are Leadership, Integrity and Authenticity. • Re-GENERATE Passion, Energy, Productivity, Laughter and Work/Home balance. • Re-MIND your audience about what "really mattered before the circumstances changed everything!" They get to experience Possibility, Optimism and Satisfaction again…and the desire to pass this onto students.

    Senate Standing Committee on Education and Employment - Education QUESTIONS ON NOTICE Additional Estimates 2013-2014 Outcome 2 - Schools and Youth Department of Education Question No. ED0453_14 Senator O'Neill asked on 26 February 2014, Hansard page 101 Question Trade Training Centres - round 5 Senator O'NEILL: Despite this significant investment over five rounds, I am sure there is still a number of schools around the country that do not have trade training centres or actually are not part of a cluster of schools that has a trade training centre servicing a particular area. Could we have a list of such schools or school regions that are currently unserved in terms of trade training options? Mr Cook: I am happy to take it on notice. Senator O'NEILL: If possible, by electorate, just a geoshot. Mr Cook: When you say 'unserved' do you mean no children at a school are accessing a centre? Senator O'NEILL: Yes. Where there are schools that are not able to access either directly in the school or in a site created by a cluster of schools seeking the funding. Mr Cook: Happy to take that on notice. Answer Attachment A lists the schools eligible to apply for funding under Round Five (Phase One) of the Trade Training Centres in Schools Program that had not been approved for funding as at 17 December 2013. These schools may have existing trade training arrangements in place, for example through local agreements to access Trade Training Centres or by partnering with existing Registered Training Organisations.
