Preparing our young people for the worldLast week I had the distinct privilege to be a member of the organising committee to host over 400 delegates from around our nation at the Association of Heads of Independent Schools (AHISA) Leading, Learning and Caring Conference at the Adelaide Convention Centre.

The conference is designed to provide senior education leaders access to the latest research, thinking and practice in schools. Head of one ninety, Nicholas Brice, and Assistant Head of Middle School, Jarrod Johnson, both presented to their peers at the conference. Deputy Principal, Greg Atterton with Nicholas Brice and Head of Kurrajong, Virginia Evans, hosted a group of 20 senior leaders on a tour of our school.

Keynote speakers included but were not limited to Vice Chancellor and President of UniSA David Lloyd, London bombing survivor and philanthropist Dr Gill Hicks and Director of the Wellbeing Research Group in the Centre for Research in Education at UniSA and the Hawke Research Institute, Dr Barbara Spears.

A consistent theme across the conference was the need to empower young people to develop adaptive and agile approaches to learning. As well as numeracy and literacy (language, digital and financial), young people will need a toolkit of transferable skills including critical and creative thinking, problem solving, communication and collaboration to be successful in their futures.

At Pulteney, we are committed to creating learning experiences that promote student inquiry, questioning and creativity. There is always further opportunity to develop and, in response to the excellent feedback we received from students, parents and staff in our community consultation last year, we are continuing to work on developing a more integrated curriculum (where linkages between subjects are made more tangible) and also utilising the many resources of the city around us. Our design of learning spaces also reflects future thinking in the styles and modes of learning that foster student success. Our Centre for Senior Learning has won yet another award, leading to Pulteney being named one of 40 Most Innovative Schools for 2016 in The Educator Magazine’s annual awards.

Intercollegiate SportsLast week the Winter InterCol Sports were hosted by Scotch College. A full report from Head of Sport, Mr Nik Sacoutis features further on in this newsletter. I take this opportunity to acknowledge the level of commitment and team play exhibited by all of our Pulteney competitors across the range of sports and teams. I extend my thanks to all of the parents, coaches and coordinators for their efforts and support over the Winter season; there are a few more games to play in some sports and I wish all who are in upcoming finals all the very best.

Jenny Hewitson Shop Manager

I also take this opportunity to extend my thanks to Nik Sacoutis for all he has brought to the sports program over the last 4 years in the role as Head of Sport. Nik has informed me of his intention to step down from the role at the end of the year and return to a teaching role. The School is now in the process of recruiting a replacement to continue to provide leadership for our sports program, including the continuation of the review that has recently commenced.

Staff AnnouncementChristina Jarvis has advised me of her resignation from Pulteney Grammar School. As many would know, Christina is currently on a year’s leave and is pursuing her dreams of living and volunteering in Africa. Currently, she is enjoying the opportunities and challenges in Musanze, Rwanda. Christina plans to pursue ongoing volunteer and paid work in conservation and service areas. She will also be back at Pulteney from time to time, as a relief teacher. We look forward to seeing her soon and hearing of her wonderful adventures in Africa!

Languages Review UpdateThe Languages Faculty, Heads of School and the Deputy Principal have spent considerable time working with me throughout the latter part of Term Two and this term reviewing and considering the many options available to us as a School with regard to the teaching of languages other than English. This was identified as a key priority in the community consultation completed in 2015.

We have established a clear vision for this review, aligned with the School’s strategic priorities, that celebrates language as integral to the globally oriented and highly interconnected world in which our students live. Underpinning this vision is the belief that all students are entitled to quality language learning.

The working party have considered the ideal “flow” of language offerings at Pulteney, considering choice of language (including Mandarin Chinese), year levels at which different languages will be offered (ELC-12), time allocation each week, continuity of languages and possible phasing over the next three years.

Once we have completed this final planning stage, I will be in a position to communicate our exciting plan for Languages to the School community towards the end of this term. I look forward to sharing it with you very soon.

Nud-loo / poorr-a-chee / koom-un-gar / pood-nit-chee-ah

We acknowledge the Kaurna people, their spiritual heritage and living culture and our walk together to reconciliation.

These are the Kaurna acknowledgements that students at Pulteney state at assemblies, Chapel services, special events such as Grandparents Morning and Speech Night. Speaking in Kaurna language shows awareness, respect and recognises the continuing connection of Aboriginal people to their country.

A Welcome to Country is delivered by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders to welcome visitors to their country. This protocol has been part of their culture for 50,000 years as despite the absence of visible borders, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander groups have clear boundaries separating their country from that of other groups.

What is Reconciliation?

It’s about respect, relationships and opportunity for our Pulteney community to specifically learn about the rich cultural heritage of the first Australians. Our Pulteney Reconciliation Plan provides an opportunity to share with our students the history of our country, pre-settlement and how this impacts on contemporary issues. Reconciliation in relation to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people is distinctly different from the broad idea of ‘respecting all cultures’. It needs to pay particular attention to competently understanding Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander history and culture.

During the school year, students at Pulteney learn about Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Reconciliation through the History and Social Sciences (HASS) and The Arts curriculum across the school. We fly the Aboriginal flag, engage in Reconciliation Week celebrations and activities and display student art work, which integrates ancient Aboriginal story telling with a contemporary approach about our school. In Kurrajong, there is a nature play area for students to explore storytelling and art work. Students utilise the Parklands to connect with nature and the land.

We collaborate with Jack Buckskin to ensure we are communicating authentic and correct information to our students and the Pulteney community.

Performing ArtsI cannot express strongly enough, the admiration and pride I hold for the young musicians of our Senior ensembles. Nor can I thank our key ensemble directors too much for their dedication, preparation and hard work in preparing students for the first four weeks of August.

As always, we have a busy start to any semester in Performing Arts. This semester has been particularly rewarding and successful to the end of week 5.

BALAKLAVA EISTEDDFODAt the start of term, preparations were well underway for 6 ensembles to attend the Balaklava Eisteddfod on Friday August 5. This is an annual event that is enjoying considerable growth with nearly half again the number of schools participating this year, making competition tight. A feature of this day is the camaraderie between ensembles, both amongst our students as well as other schools.

After an early morning start for all members, getting on buses around 6:45am, the Senior Percussion ensemble, directed by Mr Andrew Wiering, was up first at 9:00am, closely followed by the Senior String Ensemble directed by Louise Beaston. While neither were placed in the top 3 for this large open division, they performed beautifully and were a credit to our program, receiving some wonderful comments from the adjudicator.

Next up, Stage Band! Unfortunately, our director for this ensemble, Mr Jonathon Rice was unable to attend with other teaching commitments. Step in Mr Wilson! I felt the pressure was on, with this group performing well above previous expectations. Perform they did, winning Gold and their division of the competition.

Almost immediately after this performance Miss Annie Kwok directed Grammarphones in a new division for this Eisteddfod, the large Choral competition. Performing wonderfully and drawing smiles from the audience with Miss Kwok’s original arrangement of Rubber Duckie, adjudicators made one of the closest calls of the day with Grammarphones coming away with Silver, securing second place.

Our Concert Band, always one of our strongest ensembles, performed after a short break, again directed by Miss Annie Kwok. By this time most of our students had performed in one group or another and walked on stage confidently and performed at their very best, winning Gold and their division.

Finally, to finish off the day, Jazz On The Terrace performed a set in the small vocal group category. Again competition was tight and, after some wonderful words from the adjudicator, we were awarded second place with a silver.

GIG@TheGOV Six ensembles with 63 students travelled to a very successful Balaklava and less than two weeks later we were at the Gig@theGov (Governor Hindmarsh Hotel) with eight ensembles and 81 students performing, plus soloists, for our own community.

A wonderful night starting with dinner as a community at 6pm, performances began at 7:30, lasting until nearly 10:00pm. For many, the highlight of the night would have to have been the Year 11 ensemble augmented by staff, presenting Hey Jude. Our feature ensembles of Senior Concert Band, again directed by Miss Annie Kwok, started the evening with the Senior Stage Band, directed by Mr Jonathon Rice closing the evening with their second set.

A special thanks goes to the Friends of Music who ran the door and produced the raffle; also Ms Lauren Sutter and Joseph Ninio who were photographers on the night. Thanks go to all staff who directed and assisted on the night, including Miss Annie Kwok, Ms Ali O’Connell, Mr Jonathon Rice, Mr Andrew Wiering, Miss Laura Von Burg and Mr Frank Fragomeni.

ABODA band festival Finally to round off the first half of the term, last week Senior String Ensemble, Senior Concert Band and Senior Stage Band competed in the ABODA (the Australian Band and Orchestra Directors Association) festival and competition over three days.

This was the first time that we have managed to achieve a Gold ranking in all three ensemble groups. Strings performed late Wednesday afternoon, Concert Band Thursday morning and Stage Band in the evening of Friday.

While we did not win our individual division, our Gold ranking for these three ensembles put us among the top independent and state music schools of Adelaide and from around the state. Miss Louise Beaston, Miss Annie Kwok and Mr Jonathon Rice, along with the students in these ensembles, deserve our thanks and congratulations for such a monumental effort after such a busy few weeks.

YEAR 12 Drama production, LORD OF THE FLIESThis week we have the Year 12 production of ‘Lord of the Flies’ directed by Jamie Hibbert and presented at the Bakehouse Theatre. Knowing the standard of previous years, we know that this will be thought provoking, confronting and entertaining with wonderful performances by an amazing, talented and well-rehearsed company of students. I hope you have your tickets already as the show has sold out.

Kym Wilson Head of Performing Arts

From the ArchivesThis week we travel further back in time to something associated with Pulteney in 1853, during the headmastership of while WA Cawthorne.

At the March 20 1853 meeting of Trustees Mr McDermott (a Trustees) announced that he and the Dean had purchased a building in Hobson’s Place in the south west of the city, for a new school. He proposed that this be a branch school of Pulteney Street School and run along the same lines. In April 1853 the Trustees places an advertisement in The Observer and the Adelaide Times:

New Day School near Whitmore SquareThe Governors of Pulteney Street School announce that at 9 o’clock on Monday next April 4, a new Day School will be opened at the premises of Hobson’s Place, Wright Street, formerly occupied by a Wesleyan Chapel…

The management, system, course of instruction and fees will be the same as at the school in Pulteney Street and the Governors have engaged the services of Mr John Whinham as Master.

This venture seems to have simmered along for a few years but it is not mentioned again in the Trustees minutes. In August 1855 Mrs Alfred Nash, operated a school for ladies in the Hobson’s Place Schoolroom, and in February 1857 the Board of Education School Inspections listed Mrs Sutherland as the teacher at Hobson’s Place, with 32 pupils. In September of that Year Mrs Sutherland was appointed as Mistress of the Girls School at Pulteney Street School. The last reference to this schoolroom was in November 1859, when Hobson’s Place was listed as a private street owned by a Church of England school (they owed money for macadamizing the street).

Samantha Cooper School Archivist

From the Chaplain HUMILITY AND HOSPITALITY In last week’s chapel reading, Luke 14:1, 7-14 Humility and Hospitality, we heard two parables, one directed at banquet guests and the other at banquet hosts. They appeared to be inviting the listener to do a fair bit of ‘double thinking’ in order to advantage themselves. Student were quite right to point out and challenge that no one likes false humility. Everyone can discern a fraud.

Jesus advised wedding guests on the right thing to do when it comes to choosing where to sit at a wedding. However, this advice is not simply about social niceties or correct protocol. It is an admonition to humility, inclusivity and generosity of spirit. Jesus is suggesting that the ‘place of honour’ is not just about the here and now. Important metaphors about relationship and inclusivity are being explored. Year 6 students quickly identified the key ideas and words to be: humility, humble, distinguished, hospitality and generosity and played a word game ‘balderdash’ in chapel to quickly to get to the substantive meaning of this reading. A significant disassociation from any literal understanding that might encourage ‘false humility’ in order to advantage oneself.

The parable was as challenging in the ancient world as it is now. We all basically want the ‘best seat in the house’ and often the only thing stopping us getting what we want is how much money we are prepared to spend. This is not possible at the end of our life, and it really does not matter whether we believe in heaven or not, what matters is being the kind of person we ourselves would respect and identify as distinguished and respect worthy.

God invites anyone who chooses to respond, to share in God’s kingdom both hear on earth and in heaven, not only those who appear worthy. We are all holy. We should not exclude anyone. With the teaching and example of Jesus’ life in our hearts it is possible to expand the space within ourselves to include everyone.

Dear God,

Help us to know your confidence

of our innate value in this world.

Guard us against trying to make ourselves feel superior

at the expense of others.

Help us to see the strength that comes from being joyous,

generous to others

and justly proud of who we are.

Amen.

ConfirmationPulteney Grammar School Confirmation Service, Robert Henshell Gym, Friday Term 3, Week 9, 23 September, starting at 8:50 am. All members of the Pulteney Community welcome.

Snow Trip 2016 – FALLS CREEKIn the third week of the July school holidays 15 senior school students, and one Henry Raymond, were accompanied by Mr Woolford, Mr Sharley and Ms Raymond to Falls Creek for a week of alpine skiing and snowboarding. Numbers interested were down on other years and it was the generosity of Westminster School that allowed us to travel to the snow at a reasonable price. We shared travel arrangements and accommodation at Riparroo Lodge for the week. The catering during the week was outstanding, the best we have had!We arrived to a beautiful Sunday afternoon and all were able to grab their skis and boards and have a wonderful half-day with some taking the opportunity to have a first-time lesson.The weather was not great on the Monday, however, Tuesday and Wednesday proved to be much more pleasurable and, in fact, quite warm. This year the SASKI Interschool races were held at Falls Creek for the first time and we had all participants entered. On Wednesday afternoon the snowboarding races took place. Most of the Year 10’s were snowboarders and they did very well. On Thursday the alpine skiing events took place. The weather was not as favourable with visibility quite poor. Again, our students did really well. A summary of the results are below.The trip will be on again next year to Falls Creek in the third week of the July school holidays. Mr Woolford would like to hear from anyone who may be interested who will be in Years 10 to 12 in 2017. Please email him at richard.woolford@pulteney.sa.edu.au. We thank him for all his time and effort in organising the group to go to Falls Creek this year.

PULTENEY LONG LUNCHSUNDAY 23 October 2016

AUCTION DONOR FORMAs you will be aware, this year’s major fundraising event for the School, The Long Lunch, will take place on Sunday 23rd October. We anticipate that up to 550 people will attend the event. The largest fundraiser on the day is our Silent Auction, raising over $45,000 at the last Long Lunch, which is a relatively simple means of generating substantial income for the benefit of our children. I am writing in the hope that your business, or perhaps one that you might frequent, would be able to offer an auction item for The Long Lunch.

From past experience, several categories of auction items have consistently raised significant funds. These categories are:

• Family experiences (such as a family trip to Monarto Zoo, holiday house accommodation).
