成人短片

On Friday 12 March, one of our Year 9 students, Hannah Rowland (C9.1), represented 成人短片's in the 's Inclusive Swimming Carnival. Hannah took out second place in two of her races - the 50m Freestyle and in the 50m Breaststroke. Congratulations, Hannah!

Also at the Carnival were our Year 9 leaders, helping out in a wide variety of ways, both in and out of the pool. This was a fantastic opportunity for our students to provide support to their peers across many different schools. We are quite sure it would have been hard for the Year 9s to remain impartial while Hannah was blitzing her way through the water!

Thank you to Year 9s Cohen, Lachlan, Riley, Demi, Hayley, Jesse, Ethan, Madison, Jacob, Dylan, Eavie, Amy and Chloe, who helped out on the day.

The aim of the Associated and Catholic Colleges of WA (ACC) is to provide quality sport and recreation activities that cater to all levels of student ability. The Inclusive Sports Program, of which today's Swimming Carnival is a part, is integral to the ACC efforts to provide students with a disability equitable access to sporting and recreational opportunities. The program is specifically targeted at students whose disabilities may hinder their inclusion in school-based or interschool sporting events.

This week, we celebrate cricket success, news from the Nipper Championship, an athletics win and the development of a future violin virtuoso!

Cricketing success!

Oscar Chadwick (W7.1) and his teammates at Scarborough Cricket Club won the Grand Final of the John Inverarity Shield (WACA Premier U13 District Cricket). Oscar opened the bowling for Scarborough, and took a wicket in the first over of the match. Scarborough won the Final by seven wickets, defeating Subiaco Floreat. Well done, Oscar!

Athletics Star

Madison Esquivel (CH9.2) recently competed in the WA State Track & Field Championships, winning Bronze in both Long Jump & Triple Jump. Madison will be representing WA in April at the Sydney Olympic Stadium. Congratulations, Madison!

SunSmart WA Nipper Championship

Ben Chadderton (5M), Hazel Foley (5M), Koga Haywood (5H), and Gabriella Jackson (5R) competed in the SunSmart WA State Nipper Championships at Scarborough Beach over the weekend. All are from Mullaloo Surf Life Saving Club in the U10 age group. The conditions were perfect and they all did a fantastic job.

The weekend consisted of many water and beach events including beach flags and sprints, a 1km beach run, board races, swim races, team events, and an Ironman/Ironwoman. Each of them placed in the Top 10 in the State for different events, with Gabby and Hazel even taking home a Silver medal for their efforts in the Team Board Relay. Ben helped his team come 5th in their Board Relay, and Koga was a star swimmer, helping his team gain 6th place in their Surf Team event.

A busy season of Sunday mornings on the beach, and midweek board and swim training, paid off. They all showed great sportsmanship, dedication, and a lot of grit and determination, while having loads of fun with friends at the same time. They are definitely super stars in our eyes!

AMEB Awards for Excellence

In early March, Daniel Ciccullo (6.1) was presented with the 2020 AMEB Awards for Excellence for the outstanding result he achieved in Violin (Comprehensive Exam). The awards presentation ceremony was held in the Octagon Theatre at The University of Western Australia.

During the holidays, Daniel also auditioned for a place in Collegium (AMEB 4+) at WA Youth Orchestra. He has been offered the 1^st violin position and will be rehearsing at WAAPA every Saturday.

Congratulations on both achievements, Daniel!

Pamela Grubb, our Director of Music, was invited to present on the weekend at one of the Kod脿ly Connect sessions coordinated by Kod脿ly WA across regional towns. Offering professional learning to music teachers in Albany, Mandurah, Geraldton, Kalgoorlie, and Bunbury, this event allows music teachers in regional areas to connect with one another and access high quality classroom ideas from Kod脿ly inspired teachers.

Pamela is passionate about music education and has completed all three levels of the Secondary Australian Kod脿ly Certificate over the last two years. Just recently, Pamela presented three sessions in Albany on classroom games, activities and choral warm-ups to music teachers ranging from early childhood all the way to secondary. The feedback from the participants was very positive and the event was a great success!

Led by Pamela, our Music Department staff continue to hone their skills in Kod脿ly methodology, with Andrew Martin, one of our Primary Music teachers, undertaking the first level of the Primary Australian Kod脿ly Certificate in the Term 1 holidays.

At Monday's Middle School Assembly, two students, Dane Arcus (6.1) and Isla Cercarelli (6.4), were acknowledged for completing their Level 1 Ignite Award, a significant achievement. Congratulations!

This prestigious youth award, which is modeled on the Duke of Edinburgh鈥檚 International Award, is a challenging program of self-discovery for young people aged 10 to 14 years old that provides opportunities to learn valuable skills, be physically active, assist others in the community and experience adventures.

The award benefits young people by fostering positive attitudes towards learning, complementing their school curriculum, whilst also building an environment for positive engagement and interaction between young people and the community. It also promotes positive self-development and leadership skills and is a great tool for participants to transition into secondary school; hence creating responsible and motivated young people in Western Australia. We currently have over 50 students in the Middle School participating. We are enthusiastic to support students through the program, and I encourage you to discuss this with your child.

For further information about the Award you may wish to visit their website at .

If you would like further information, please contact Mrs Jane Upson or Mrs Kellie Bailey, who are the Award Leaders for Ignite at 成人短片's. Alternatively you can begin your child鈥檚 journey straight away by registering .

Fill in all required details, select the Award Centre on the drop down as 成人短片鈥檚 Anglican Community School, choose the appropriate level according to their age (10- 11 years we recommend Level 1/2 and 12-13 we recommend Level 3/4.) Once paid, the booklets are sent to the school and they will be distributed to students in class.

Earlier this month, students in Years 2 to 5 participated in Primary Interhouse Swimming Carnival at the HBF Stadium. The Carnival had a new look this year with those wanting to challenge for a spot in the Interschool Swimming Team competing at the start of the day. The big events followed, with the rest of the Primary School arriving to compete in swimming and novelty events across the pool.

Some outstandingly close racing was thoroughly enjoyed by the audience as the competitors strived to earn points for their House. There was plenty of House spirit and determination on display as the students pushed for their personal bests and persisting with great determination in strokes they found challenging. Well done to everyone!

After the results were tallied, Moyes were announced as overall winners, with Challen in second, and Carnley and Watkins ending as joint third place winners!

A big thank you to everyone who supported the 成人短片's Old Scholars' Association's sausage sizzle on Election Day. It was a lovely to have number of School parents volunteering alongside our Old Scholars (including some volunteers who are both School parents AND Old Scholars!) on the day.

Despite being one of the quieter Hillarys' polling stations, the egg and bacon rolls were quickly snapped up by early morning voters, and plenty of snags were sold throughout the day.

At the Old Scholars' Association Committee Meeting last night, the Treasurer was able to confirm close to $600 was raised at the event. The funds are to be invested in the School's sustainability program, and will be used towards purchasing a pump for the Community Garden. The pump will make it easier to use the water collected in the rainwater tanks located to the side of the Art Room - great for the parents who are on the watering roster, and for the Primary School students in the Sustainability Squad.

The meeting last night was also used to confirm the Old Scholars' continued commitment to supporting the Primary School's Learning Service initiatives, by providing funds for the Cooking for the Salvos events. Dates for the 2021 events will be available soon.

A number of other activities are planned throughout the year, and the Association looks forward to sharing more information as details are finalised. While some events, such the 'Milestone Reunion' night planned for November, are designed for past students to enjoy, many activities support student and School initiatives across a wide range of year groups.
