Nomination Form Young Lawyers Section Annual Report 2011 President Jonathan Elliot, Freehills Vice President Amanda Storey, Piper Alderman Manager Anna Alexander, Law Institute of Victoria Date 11 November 2011 President’s Report Engage with the Young Lawyers Section in 2011 It seems that 2011 has flown past! Looking back, it has been an exciting year for the Young Lawyers Section. A key focus for the YLS this year has been engagement with members. We’ve sought to find new and relevant ways to connect and keep members up to date with what’s happening in the Section. Throughout the course of the year our membership has grown to almost 6,500 young lawyers and law students. It has been my privilege as President this year to be able to meet and talk with members across the state. We come from different working backgrounds and interests but have a lot to be proud of in terms of our contribution to the profession and the community. As always, in 2011 the YLS has aimed to address issues of particular importance to young lawyers and law students. Our calendar of events has been packed with seminars, competitions, forums, networking and social events including the 2011 Australian Young Lawyers Conference and National Golden Gavel. Key areas where we have sought to make a difference this year include career development, health and wellbeing, web and social media presence and community engagement. Australian Young Lawyers Conference and National Golden Gavel In September this year the YLS hosted two landmark events for young lawyers in Australia – the 2011 Australian Young Lawyers Conference and the National Golden Gavel Competition. Both events were a huge success. The theme of the conference was “Developing Your Career” and delegates from across the country were provided with outstanding training in a range of practical legal skills. The Golden Gavel was a fun event with Justice Betty King and Mark Holden judging. I’m pleased to report that our Victorian representatives fared particularly well, winning the competition and taking out the people’s choice award. Career Development This year the YLS delivered a host of seminars to assist young lawyers at all levels build their career. In June we published the Trainee Guidelines for trainee lawyers and supervisors and throughout the year a team of young lawyers have been preparing the Young Lawyers Guide which will go to print in 2012. We also launched the monthly alternative careers column with the aim of providing ideas and information for young lawyers looking for a change of workplace. Health & Wellbeing The YLS took a lead role this year in addressing issues of personal health and sustainability in the legal profession. With depression amongst lawyers becoming a significant concern, the YLS initiated the Young Lawyers Health & Wellbeing seminar series to raise awareness and help with prevention. The seminars held throughout the course of the year targeted topics of fitness and nutrition, understanding and preventing depression and managing stress and anxiety. YLS Website and Facebook Page In August the YLS announced the arrival of its new Facebook page. 1 The page provides regular status updates from the Section including the latest news and information as well as photos from YLS events. The page has already garnered a strong following and I’d encourage those haven’t already had the chance to jump on and like our page or post a comment. Earlier in the year we launched our new website landing page. The YLS website is full of up to date information for young lawyers and law students including our various publications, calendar of events, career help and support services. Community Engagement As young practitioners we have much to contribute to the community in which we practice. I’d like to congratulate the hundreds of young lawyers who volunteer and assist with community organisations across the state. I’m pleased to report that this year the YLS raised approximately $50,000 for charity organisations including the Prison Legal Education and Assistance Project, Open Family, Hanover Welfare Services and the Stride Foundation. The YLS executive committee also took part in volunteering with Habitat for Humanity. Towards 2012 With a new year on the horizon, there’s a lot to look forward to. A huge vote of thanks to everyone who has contributed to the YLS this year. In particular, I would like to thank Anna Alexander and Claire Galofaro for the vital role they play making the YLS what it is and LIV President, Caroline Counsel and LIV CEO, Mike Brett- Young for their continued support of the Section. I’d like wish all members the very best with their career pursuits and encourage members to connect with the YLS in 2012. It’s about making the profession better for current and future members and the community engaging with us.

  • ANNUAL REPORT the Story of Our Star Our Logo, Based on the Lasallian Star, Is a Central Part of Our Long Tradition and History
    2013 ANNUAL REPORT The story of our Star Our logo, based on the Lasallian star, is a central part of our long tradition and history. It calls to mind “The Starfish Story”, by Loren Eiseley, and the difference that we can make in the life of each and every child in need. Adapted from ‘The Star Thrower’ by Loren Eiseley Once upon a time there was a wise man who used to go to the ocean to do his writing. He had a habit of walking on the beach before he began his work. One day he was walking along the shore. As he looked down the beach, he saw a human figure moving like a dancer. He smiled to himself to think of someone who would dance to the day. So he began to walk faster to catch up. As he got closer, he saw that it was a young man and the young man wasn’t dancing, but instead he was reaching down to the shore, picking up something and very gently throwing it into the ocean. As he got closer he called out, “Good morning. What are you doing?” The young man paused, looked up and replied, “Throwing starfish in the ocean.” “I guess I should have asked why are you throwing starfish in the ocean?” “The sun is up and the tide is going out. And if I don’t throw them in they’ll die.” “But, young man, don’t you realise that there are miles and miles of beach and starfish all along it.

  • Annual Report 2012
    Annual Report 2012 Yellow Brick Road Holdings Limited ABN 44 119 436 083 2012 represented a year of investing for growth in Yellow Brick Road. In a 12 month timeframe, we’ve launched a nationally recognised brand, built a network of branches across the country, and created a suite of products and services to rival any major banking institution... and we’re just getting started. ANNUAL REPORT 2012 Section One 04 Executive Chairman’s Letter 06 Chief Executive Officer’s Report 10 Year in Review Highlights 12 Building the Brand 14 The Road to Advice 16 Our Product and Service Capability 18 Directors’ Profiles 20 Executive Committee Bios Section Two 01 2012 Directors’ Report and Financial Statements Executive Chairman’s Letter 2012 has been a defining year for Yellow Brick Road with a deliberate focus on investing for growth. The GFC provided us with an opportunity to capitalise on the shrinking banking sector by building a business to challenge the major institutions and their stranglehold on the market. We’ve had the chance to be significantly competitive against the banks, and we’ve taken the opportunity and built one of the most recognised alternatives in the market on a very modest investment and in a very short timeframe. Over the past year we have invested shareholder’s funds to build a nationally recognised brand, a network of branches across the country and correlated a product and services portfolio that financial consumers want, rolled out through training programs to our network. Your company has done this in record time for a modest amount of money in relative terms and against enormous head winds that even the four big banks of Australia are now making reference to.

Not that she had probably noticed he had moved on. The wannabe actress and number one ticket holder for the Elouera Beach Car Park okay, I'm being mean — one of the Sutherland Shire's finest daughters goes through men just as vigorously as the Cronulla Sharks get through coldies after a game. Her appetite is insatiable, especially if the guy is rich and famous. Michael, sadly, was only filthy rich and wasn't all that keen on seeing his photo front and centre with Belle's in my BFF Luke Jefferson's column in The Sun. Michael and Belle broke up shortly after the action-packed Coco Man of the Year Awards, when she had been caught giggling behind a toilet cubicle with Dev — lead singer of The Dread, who had been performing that night. Michael had walked in on them unexpectedly and, well, when he wanted to leave straight away I organised him an Uber car from the event, but I managed to jump in as well. Michael had been excellent company for me during the night, keeping me calm and pouring the odd drink for me while Belle flitted around. Once it was clear that he and Belle were over for good, I accidentally on purpose found myself running into him all over town.
