the NSW Government, welcome to Penrith for the 2018 Aon Sydney International Rowing Regatta. The NSW Government is proud to be supporting this event via its tourism and major events agency, Destination NSW. This week Australia’s best rowers will go head-to-head here in Western Sydney in prestigious races such as the King’s and Queen’s Cup and the Schools Open Championship. Australia’s best will be joined by rowers from around the world, with competitors from Argentina, Japan, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Vietnam and Ireland here for the event. I encourage visitors and competitors to take some time to explore everything Western Sydney has to offer, from restaurants and shops to adventure activities and spectacular scenery in the nearby Blue Mountains. For those who are staying on after the event, I urge you to explore further afield and enjoy the spectacular coastline, World Heritage Listed wilderness areas and the historic towns throughout rural and regional NSW. I wish all competitors the very best of luck and hope visitors to Penrith thoroughly enjoy their stay. The Hon. Adam Marshall MP Minister for Tourism and Major Events 1 ROWING AUSTRALIA ROWING AUSTRALIA COUNCIL Australian Capital Territory David Bagnall Rowing New South Wales Sarah Cook Rowing Queensland Emma Brown Rowing South Australia Greg Melbourne Rowing Tasmania James Gibson Rowing Victoria The Hon.

Rowing is one of the Australia’s oldest and most successful sports, recognised as much for its tradition and appeal to athletes of all ages as for its fantastic health benefits. Rowing is a cornerstone Olympic sport and Australian rowing has a long and proud history of success, consistently returning multiple medals at major international competitions. Rowing is a part of Australia’s national sporting and cultural heritage, with international success dating back to 1867 when Edward “Ned” Trickett won Australia’s first ever sporting World Championship. Rowing continues to play an important part in Australia’s sporting culture, providing safe, fun and healthy opportunities for Australians of all ages and abilities to participate in a sport that provides unparalleled health benefits. Rowing is a sport for life, accessible to people of all ages, genders, fitness and skill levels, and currently enjoyed by over 60,000 participants and 25,000 active members ranging from young rowers at school through to those at universities and in the wider community right through to masters rowing. Rowing Australia member associations operate in seven states with over 185 schools and 156 clubs offering rowing programs. 2 MESSAGE FROM PRESIDENT OF ROWING AUSTRALIA On behalf of the Board and Council of Rowing Australia, it is with great pleasure that I welcome athletes, coaches, sponsors, officials, guests and supporters to the 2018 Aon Sydney International Rowing Regatta. It is a great honour for Rowing Australia to once again host this magnificent event, the pinnacle to the domestic rowing calendar in Australia. We are delighted to welcome teams from across the globe to compete this year, including Rio 2016 Olympic silver medallists, Ireland’s Gary and Paul O’Donovan,

    Minister for Education and Minister for Industrial Relations The Honourable Grace Grace Queensland’s top Year 12 graduates announced Education Minister Grace Grace has today congratulated the state’s top Year 12 graduates from the class of 2018 at the Queensland Certificate of Education (QCE) Achievement Awards. “These annual awards are a fantastic opportunity to recognise the hard work and achievement of our top students, as well as the teachers and families who supported them,” Ms Grace said. “In 2018, close to 49,000 young Queenslanders received a QCE. They have now turned their focus to entering university, starting a trade or moving straight into the workforce,” Ms Grace said. Ms Grace said the top award of Outstanding Academic Achiever went to Maya Lamont who attended Indooroopilly State High School. Maya received a certificate, trophy, and $5000. “Maya’s extraordinary Year 12 results placed her ahead of more than 51,000 of her peers,” Ms Grace said. “She achieved exceptionally highly in all her school subjects, the Queensland Core Skills Test, tertiary entrance ranking, and in a philosophy subject at university. “Maya hopes to work in environmental law or government in the future and advocate for causes she’s passionate about. “This year Maya will study Arts and law at The University of Queensland. “I congratulate Maya and commend the wonderfully supportive learning environment at Indooroopilly State High School that helped her to flourish.” QCAA chief executive officer Chris Rider said the awards highlighted the strength of senior schooling in Queensland. “The award winners attended 23 different state and non-state schools,” Mr Rider said.
