From the Principal...<br />
American Diplomat visits <strong>Hobart</strong> <strong>College</strong>!<br />
Premier’s Young Achiever Award<br />
Welcome to our third newsletter for this year. With every edition I have the<br />
opportunity to reflect on what has been happening in the <strong>College</strong> since the last<br />
newsletter and I am always surprised at how much has been achieved in such<br />
a short time. This newsletter showcases the recent Careers Expo, visiting<br />
American Diplomat, Dan Callaghan, photos from the <strong>College</strong> Production,<br />
Chicago, as well as individual sporting, cultural and academic achievements of<br />
students.<br />
<strong>Hobart</strong> <strong>College</strong> is well known for its very diverse international community and<br />
we have regular exchange programs with schools in China, Japan and Korea.<br />
In early May we hosted a delegation of staff from our sister school in China<br />
- Fuzhou Number 8 Middle School. <strong>2011</strong> celebrates the 30 year anniversary<br />
of Fuzhou as a sister State to Tasmania so we have a very special relationship with this province and school. In the<br />
September holidays last year I accompanied a group of teachers and students to visit Fuzhou as part of a school trip<br />
to China and it was a fabulous experience learning about the Chinese educational system and culture. We are hoping<br />
to organise another school trip to China in June 2012 so please see Debbie Halliday if you are interested in joining<br />
this group.<br />
We are now in the middle of the musical production season and it is very exciting seeing all the hard work from<br />
the last few months come to fruition for the cast and crew of Chicago. The Performing Arts are such a vital part<br />
of a holistic education and Chicago is a fantastic celebration of what can be achieved when staff and students work<br />
together on a real life project. Congratulations to everyone involved in this production!<br />
The Mid Year Assessment Period (MYAP) begins on Monday July 25 until Tuesday August 2. The examinations, tests<br />
and practical assessments undertaken during MYAP are important milestones in the academic year. For pre-tertiary<br />
subjects they provide students with the opportunity to experience formal exam conditions and it is a valuable learning<br />
experience for students to reflect on the specific areas they need to improve on over the rest of the year. Although<br />
exams can be daunting, there is lots of support available to help students with their preparation. Encourage your son/<br />
daughter to talk to their Home Group Teacher about planning their study time and to take advantage of the subject<br />
tutorials.<br />
In conclusion, I would like to stress that it is really important to us that every student feels connected and supported<br />
as a member of our college community. We value our partnership with parents and if you ever have any concerns,<br />
please contact us and we will do our best to help.<br />

Welcome - Nigel McBrien<br />
In the last newsletter we farewelled Jo Pang; this time we welcome our new <strong>College</strong> Chaplain,<br />
Nigel McBrien who began here just before Easter, scoring his first coup by arranging for My<br />
Kitchen Rules stars Esther and Ali to attend the Food Fair. Nigel has lived in Australia for only<br />
the past two years relocating from the North of Ireland. He brings a wide range of talents and<br />
interests to his Chaplaincy role as he quietly settles into <strong>College</strong> life.<br />
Farewell - Joellen Bird After ten years of teaching drama at <strong>Hobart</strong> <strong>College</strong> Joellen<br />
Bird has decided to swap greasepaint for grandparenting as she brings her illustrious career as<br />
one of the state’s top drama teachers to a close. Joellen produced many high quality theatre<br />
productions from Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream to the confronting contemporary<br />
Australian play, The Boys. Students appreciated Jo’s exacting standards and the polish she<br />
brought to both performance and production. Working with the ensemble groups in Theatre<br />
Performance were among her career highlights. The <strong>College</strong> has appreciated the enormous<br />
commitment of time and energy that Joellen brought to her classes, plays and musicals. She has<br />
been instrumental in enriching the life of the campus through her vibrant productions.<br />
Farewell - Ian Burleigh After eleven years of teaching Design in Metal, Plant and<br />
Agricultural Science, Vet Engineering and Future Options at <strong>Hobart</strong> <strong>College</strong>, Ian Burleigh has<br />
decided to leave teaching for greener pastures, literally. As a keen farmer, vigneron and beekeeper,<br />
Ian will devote much of his time to the land and to sheep grazing. A very versatile and<br />
multi - skilled teacher he has been instrumental in setting up, developing and contributing to a<br />
variety of areas of the <strong>College</strong>. A former Fitting and Turning engineer, Ian opted for a career in<br />
teaching and he has shared his knowledge and skills with his students, giving them the benefit of<br />
his broad experinece. We wish Ian all the best in his retirement and in his future endevours.<br />
On Thursday May 5 we had the pleasure of having<br />
Dan Callahan the Political/Economic Officer at the US<br />
Consulate General’s Office in Melbourne come and speak<br />
to us. It’s not every day we get a chance like this, so it<br />
was terrific to have so many interested staff and students<br />
come along and gather in the Theatrette for an hour!<br />
Dan led an interactive discussion on a wide range of topics<br />
including the U.S/Australia Alliance and the relationship<br />
our two countries enjoy, Afghanistan/lraq and a ‘Day in<br />
the Life of a U.S Diplomat’.<br />
The audience was keen to ask some tricky questions<br />
and Kate Parrott got the ball rolling with her question<br />
about international criminal courts and the United States’<br />
role. Students were particularly interested to grill Dan<br />
on what he thought about Bin Laden’s demise which has<br />
featured prominently in the news.<br />
Dan also plugged some of the opportunities that U.S<br />
colleges and universities offer, so if you are interested in<br />
studying in the U.S in the near future, please check out<br />

We are proud to acknowledge that former <strong>Hobart</strong> <strong>College</strong><br />
dux, Stanislav Shabala, is the recipient of this year’s<br />
Premier’s Young Achiever Award. After leaving the <strong>College</strong>,<br />
Stas went on to complete a PhD at the University<br />
of Cambridge and held a research fellowship at Oxford.<br />
He is an ARC Super Science Fellow in the Astrophysics<br />
and Environmental Geodesy groups at the University<br />
of Tasmania and was awarded the Bok Prize for the top<br />
astrophysics honours thesis in Australia in 2003.<br />
During his time at <strong>Hobart</strong> <strong>College</strong> Stas won prizes for<br />
Twentieth Century History, Chemistry and Physics and<br />
the Ethnic Communities Council Prize for the highest<br />
TCE score for ESL in Tasmania as well as being the 1999<br />
Dux. His achievements at <strong>College</strong> were even more<br />
remarkable, given that, as a relatively recent immigrant<br />
from Russia, English was his second language. Physics<br />
teacher, Craig Herbert, remembers having lots of<br />
interesting conversations with Stas about the meaning of<br />
the universe, “He was a very bright boy and what we<br />
were doing at <strong>College</strong> was just laying the foundations for<br />
him to build upon.”<br />
The premier, Lara Giddings, made mention of the fact<br />
that Stas, “has excelled academically to the point of being<br />
internationally renowned in the field of astrophysics. This<br />
is an amazing achievement for any pioneering scientist,<br />
and Stas has achieved this at the age of 27.” Dr Shabala ‘s<br />
work at UTAS involves the analysis of black holes.
VET Construction and VET Automotive<br />
VET Hospitality & Kitchen Operations<br />
VET Hospitality & Kitchen Operations<br />
Certificate 1 and 2<br />
This popular course prepares students for a rewarding<br />
career in the Accommodation and Food Services industry,<br />
currently the eighth largest employing industry division in<br />
Australia.<br />
The course covers preparation and training for those<br />
wanting a career as a chef, event planner, kitchen hand,<br />
front of house, house keeper as well as part time work<br />
opportunities in cafes, restaurants and hotels. Students<br />
attain a broad variety of skills including how to understand<br />
the needs of customers from different cultures, how to<br />
deal with difficult clients, the competent use of coffee<br />
machines, the business side of running a coffee shop<br />
and the responsible service of alcohol. This blend of<br />
theory and practical units on campus combines with<br />
the experience students gain by going out on work<br />
placements. The work placements cover a wide range<br />
of different accommodation and food businesses such as<br />
aged care facilities, five star to two star hotels, award<br />
winning restaurants and local cafes.<br />
A suggested pathway into this industry is to do<br />
Introduction to Catering in year 11 (to make sure it’s the<br />
area for you !) and then continue on to Certificate 1 or<br />
2 in Hospitality or Kitchen Operations in year 12. This<br />
then leads to continuing your studies at Drysdale and<br />
specialising in your area of interest.<br />
Student Profiles:<br />
Joe is a year 11 student studying Certificate 1 and 2<br />
in Hospitality. He is currently on work placement at<br />
the Grand Chancellor and has worked in the Tasman<br />
Restaurant in front of house breakfast service. He has<br />
also done room service meal deliveries and restocked<br />
mini-bars throughout the hotel. Joe comments: “The<br />
work colleagues have been the best part of my work<br />
placement; they have made my time there very enjoyable”<br />
Thea is also a year 11 student. She has very clear goals<br />
and is currently doing Certificate 2 Hospitality and<br />
Certificate 1 Kitchen Operations. Thea plans to go to<br />
<strong>Tasmanian</strong> Polytechnic Drysdale South next year as well<br />
as continuing her studies at <strong>Hobart</strong> <strong>College</strong> by studying<br />
English Studies 3 and Business Studies 3.<br />
Thea’s goal is to be an event manager and she hopes to do<br />
an Advanced Diploma at <strong>Tasmanian</strong> Polytechnic Drysdale<br />
South and then a Degree in Business Management at<br />
UTAS. Her current work placement at the Wool Store<br />
has really helped her in making these decisions. While on<br />
work placement Thea has been involved in the planning<br />
and preparation of weddings as well as learning the<br />
accommodation computer booking system.<br />
“Work placement is great, because I learn so much more<br />
in a short space of time; I am accelerating quickly through<br />
the different aspects of the job because I am learning as<br />
I go.”<br />
4 5<br />
Hospitality students run the <strong>Hobart</strong> <strong>College</strong> coffee<br />
shop one day a week. They learn all aspects of the<br />
business, including: deciding what food to make and<br />
serve, the different types and styles of coffee, serving<br />
customers, finance management, advertising and cleaning<br />
responsibilities. Profits from the coffee shop, whilst small,<br />
are used to purchase new equipment for the cafe. These<br />
have included IPod speakers so that music can be played<br />
while the coffee shop is in operation and cookbooks to<br />
research new recipe ideas.<br />
VET Automotive - Certificate 1<br />
Certificate 1 Automotive is a course that is designed to<br />
prepare students for a career in the automotive industry.<br />
The course is quite general and it is a great introduction<br />
into the exciting careers available in this industry. This<br />
industry is massive and it is not just about vehicle servicing,<br />
it could involve anything from audio installations to paint<br />
or panel work.<br />
You may even finish up working on a formula one team!<br />
The course work consists of a theory component,<br />
workshop activities and work placements in a wide<br />
variety of related businesses.<br />
Participants are encouraged to complete up to three<br />
two week work placements in order to give them as<br />
much exposure as possible to this diverse industry and<br />
also provide them with direct exposure to employment<br />
opportunities. The industry is very supportive of this<br />
program and offer extra support for willing participants.<br />
VET Construction - Certificate 1 and 2<br />
The Vet Construction program at <strong>Hobart</strong> <strong>College</strong><br />
prepares students for a career in the building industry.<br />
The Certificate program allows students to gain the<br />
maximum level of qualification outside being directly<br />
employed as an apprentice. The course allows students<br />
to complete both theory and practical units identified by<br />
industry as being essential to students wanting a career<br />
in the building industry.<br />
Students take advantage of the excellent workshop<br />
facilities available at the <strong>College</strong> to simulate the work<br />
environment and complete practical assessment tasks.<br />
During the latter part of the year eligible students<br />
undertake a work placement that allow them to gain<br />
experience on a building site and make valuable industry<br />
contacts. Students enjoy the practical side of the program<br />
and in particular the team based activities and projects.<br />
Photos to the left show students engaged in a team based<br />
practical assessment task.<br />
After completing the Certificate ll qualification students<br />
are well placed to apply for apprenticeship positions in<br />
not only carpentry and joinery but other allied trades i.e.<br />
bricklaying, painting, plastering and tiling.<br />
By choosing other subjects that complement their<br />
construction program students gain the maximum<br />
benefits from a college based Vet program.

Food Fair Wrap-Up<br />
All who were there already know that this year’s Food Fair<br />
was a roaring success when assessed from an entertainment<br />
and community building perspective. So, the “people” third<br />
of the triple bottom line is nicely covered. One day, it<br />
would be good to have the energy, finances and expertise<br />
to introduce a “planet sensitive” aspect to the Food Fair.<br />
The other third relates to “profit” and we’re proud to<br />
announce that, now the expenses have been met and the<br />
counting has been completed, the <strong>2011</strong> <strong>Hobart</strong> <strong>College</strong><br />
Food Fair has made a profit of $1545.00 making it the most<br />
profitable of any Food Fair, probably ever! Home Groups<br />
were inspired to work together to do the best they possibly<br />
could which brought out the generosity of students, their<br />
families and their teachers who in many cases donated<br />
ingredients so that profits were maximised. Cheques are<br />
now in the process of being organised and sent to Milpera<br />
State High School in Queensland and to organisations<br />
supporting the responses to the Christchurch and Japan<br />
earthquakes. Congratulations and thank you to the whole<br />
<strong>College</strong> community.<br />
In early April, Kate Parrott (Iran), Rhiannon McMahon (North Korea), Edward Croger (Belarus) and Kristof Wing<br />
(Portugal) joined with over forty other Year 9-12 students from around the state at the United Nations Youth<br />
Assembly (UNYA) <strong>Tasmanian</strong> State Conference.<br />
Over the course of four days, delegates were educated about the inner workings of the UN, debated their hearts<br />
out at Parliament House as the Security<br />
Council, ECOSOC or the Human Rights<br />
Council, spent a day at the Menzies Institute<br />
listening to speakers from the Australian Youth<br />
Climate Coalition, Thank You Water, and<br />
YEAH!, tweeted copiously, had a reception<br />
at Parliament House with the likes of Andrew<br />
Wilkie, Elise Archer, Bill Harvey, and Scott<br />
Bacon, authored and presented a ‘Youth<br />
Declaration’ to those politicians in the hope<br />
that it will provide a voice for Tasmania’s youth<br />
and, above all, had a marvellous time!<br />
From the 40-odd delegates, ten have been<br />
selected to go to the national conference - the<br />
United Nations Youth Conference (UNYC), to<br />
be held in Adelaide during July. Two <strong>Hobart</strong><br />
<strong>College</strong> students, Rihannon McMahon and<br />
Kristof Wing have been selected for the state<br />
delegation.<br />
by Kristof Wing<br />
1.4 Billion people in this world live on just $2 a day. Could you last one week?<br />
From May 16 - 20 twenty-five students from <strong>Hobart</strong> <strong>College</strong> took up the challenge to Live Below the Line. This<br />
campaign, run by the Oaktree Foundation in collaboration with the Global Poverty Project, challenges participants<br />
from all over the country to taste extreme poverty, by living on just $2 worth of food. The World Bank defines<br />
extreme poverty as living on just $2 Australian a<br />
day (adjusted for Purchasing Power Parity) and this<br />
is the reality for 1.4 billion people - the reality of<br />
more than a fifth of the world.<br />
L to R: Jesse Lynch, Jennifer Gason, Ruby Johnston and Sylvia Reddington<br />

L to R: Kate Parrott, Rhiannon McMahon, Edward Croger and Kristof Wing<br />
The campaign not only gave participants a greater<br />
perspective on extreme poverty (as well as a deep<br />
resentment for rice, lentils and oats), it also served<br />
to raise awareness and funds for the issue. Money<br />
raised goes to critical initiatives in Cambodia, East<br />
Timor and Papua New Guinea, creating sustainable<br />
education, youth empowerment and microfinance<br />
programs to break the cycle of poverty.<br />
During the week <strong>Hobart</strong> <strong>College</strong> hosted a breakfast,<br />
in which participants cooked and ate chapatis<br />
and held a lunch time fundraiser of live music and<br />
tasty food (which, alas, us Live Below the Liners<br />
served up, but could not eat). These events raised<br />
over $250 contributing to the team’s total of over<br />
$2,200 so far.<br />
Nationally this is one of the fastest growing campaigns<br />
and has over $1.2 million in only its second<br />
year.

Kate Parrott Wins Place in Geography Competition<br />
Based on her results in the National Geographic Channel - Australian Geography Competition year 11 student, Kate<br />
Parrott, has won a place at Geography’s Big Week Out, to be held on the Mornington Peninsula in October.<br />
Biggest Morning Tea<br />
Sixteen outstanding students are offered places in the Big Week Out – the highest<br />
scoring male and female student from each State and the Territories (plus 2 extras).<br />
Kate and her fellow winners will engage in a mix of stimulating and hands-on geography<br />
activities, focussing on the challenges of managing the pressure of urban development<br />
and tourist growth in fragile environments. The purpose of the Big Week Out<br />
is to: reward high-scoring students from the Competition; serve as a showcase of<br />
the excellent work that geography students and teachers are doing around Australia;<br />
and incorporate the selection mechanism for choosing Australia’s team to the 2012<br />
International Geography Olympiad in Cologne, Germany – the best four students<br />
from the Big Week Out will represent Australia in the Olympiad.<br />

the Cancer Council. The students spent a month organising<br />
the event. A great deal of work went into planning,<br />
preparing and hosting the morning tea. Students liaised<br />
with the Music Department for entertainment and the<br />
Catering Class who made sweet treats. Students also<br />
wrote to local primary schools and businesses to invite<br />
them to the event. Over sixty staff and students attended<br />
the morning tea and the class raised a total of $185.00.<br />
As part of the process the students developed a range<br />
of work related skills that will help them in their future<br />
careers. Thanks to Coles Sandy Bay for contributing $25<br />
toward the costs of the ingredients.<br />
Students said the following things about being involved in<br />
this activity:<br />
“I learnt communication and time management skills.”<br />
Stephanie<br />
