In preparation for our annual Ash Wednesday service The service further strengthened this week’s Lenten
Village staff and students were invited to write down on message after students polished off almost 600 pancakes

a personality trait they would like to change, e.g. ‘anger,’
‘self-doubt,’ or ‘fear of failure,’ acknowledge a habit they
would like to stop or anonymously outline a situation
with friends or family that seemed to be controlling or
unhelpful.
At Chapel on Wednesday the student worship leaders
and Chaplain Adam led the College into a time of
Lenten reflection commencing with the Ash Wednesday
tradition of honoring a time to reflect and let go.
During the service College leaders hammered the red
notes onto a cross. Benson Heintze and Ariel Heinrich
encouraged the audience to leave their burdens at the
cross forever, making room for something new.

EAST WING DEDICATION
Just over 100 special guests including founding
Principal Mr Brian Eckermann and wife Elizabeth,
former Principal Mr Gavan Cramer, Mr Stuart Traeger,
Spiritual and Cultural Leader Lutheran Education
SA/NT/WA and Mr Craig Vale of ArkVale Architects
attended the East Wing dedication service on Sunday
24th February.
Guests were officially welcomed by College Leaders
Benjamin Roennfeldt and Anneka Wilksch before
Principal Steven Wilksch publicly commended Mr
Craig Vale of ArkVale Architects particularly valuing
his ability to genuinely listen, ensuring the world class
design supported the College’s philosophy for middle
school education. Thanks was also extended to SARAH
Construction, Faith’s Business Manager Mr Stephen Mr Gavan Cramer, Mr Brian Eckermann, Mr Steven
Grieger, ICT Operations Manager Lachlan Gierke and Wilksch
the Faith College Board.
For the first time, Principal Steven Wilksch shared the
news of a very generous bequest of over $500,000
from past Lyndoch residents and siblings, Daphne and
Wally Krieg. Represented on the day by close family
friends Peter and Marie Hage, proceeds of the bequest
have supported the Middle School development.
He also shared some of the spiritual symbolism within
the building including the locally sourced stones within
the polished concrete, reflecting the solid foundation
of the building and the importance of building our lives
on the solid foundation found in Jesus Christ. (Luke
6:47-49)
A time of worship followed before the ribbon was cut
by Mr Stuart Traeger signifying the official opening.
Guests enjoyed a delicious afternoon tea and tour
of the Middle School Building featuring musical
entertainment by current music students Rachael
Meissner, Ellie Schaefer, Anneka Wilksch and Nicole Ellie Schaefer and Anneka Wilksch
Poulton.
Amongst the guests, Nicole Owen (Class of 1990)
commented how she had attended the opening of
Faith (Lutheran Secondary School) as one of the first
students to walk through those doors and ‘…yesterday
it was wonderful for both myself, and my parents, to
be there for the opening of the middle school building
in which my daughter Poppy is an inaugural student.
We feel incredibly blessed to share in the history of the
school in this capacity.’

Craig Vale, Mr Stuart Traeger, Mr Stephen Grieger

YEAR 7 ELECTIVES
Game Composer elective students were challenged
to try out the software program called Mixcraft Pro
7 by composing a 30 second song using only 1 sound
manipulated at least four times. This program will be
used as the weeks progress and students will be able to
lay a soundtrack and sound effects over a game of their
choice (eg. Mario Kart) as they become more familiar
MAYOR LANGE VISIT with its capabilities.
Our Year 7 students welcomed Mayor Lange to the East
Wing on Thursday 21st February to learn about the
role of the Barossa Council and its structure.
Mayor Lange touched on upcoming projects including
a potential new township in Concordia, a truck stop
at Nuriootpa and Environmental services to address
climate change. Fire Prevention, Health programs and
community services including libraries, local pools and
refuse collection were also highlighted as part of their
diverse range of accountability.

FUTURE PATHWAYS
YEAR 12 PRESENTATION ON
JOBS OF THE FUTURE
Trish Cirillo - Pathways Coordinator
On Monday the 4 of March, The University of Adelaide
commenced their Regional Tour of schools. The
Year 12 students had the opportunity to attend a
presentation of emerging industry themes, related
jobs and courses that enable students to pursue those
possibilities.
The two presenters, Angelika and Kahlia discussed
the themes of Health Technology, Assistive Robots,
Machine Learning, Blockchain Systems and Creative
Design. They also discussed the emerging jobs, which
was very interesting.
The presenters also
discussed the new
courses introduced
at the university in
order to support
these themes and
interestingly they
spoke of how courses
focus on developing
skills that are suitable
to all occupations and flexible from one workplace
to another. Many students were surprised by the
comment made by one presenter that all courses lead
to many occupations apart from the one they are
studying for and that no study is wasted.
Transferable skills and travel are a focus of courses
offered at all universities and we too value these skills
at Faith.
At the end of the presentation, students had the
opportunity to collect course brochures and ask
individual questions of the presenters. It was a well-
attended and informative presentation.

WINES VINTAGE REPORT
Bob Mitchell Learning Area Coordinator,
Agriculture
On Monday 18 February Marianne Nelson’s class went
to the Duck’s Flat vineyard of St Hallett Wines. They
generously gave us access to pick as much Semillon
as we required. Students handpicked 1 Tonne of fruit
between recess and lunch and had the parcel of fruit
crushed and pressed by the end of the school day. Duck Flat Semillon harvest
On Wednesday 27th February, a 2 Tonne load of
Sauvignon Blanc was generously delivered to the
College, by donors Shane and Leanne Kraft who own
the vineyard across the road from the Faith Senior
Campus. The fruit was machine harvested late Tuesday
night ready for Mr Mitchell’s class to crush and press
by 1.00 pm on Wednesday.
On Friday 1st March, 29 keen and eager students met
at the Bethany vineyard of David and Kathy Liersch at
6.30 am for an early start to hand pick some short rows
in the contour planted block of Riesling. The Liersch’s
have generously donated fruit from this block over the Liersch Riesling Block at Bethany photographed by a drone
last 10 years. After a challenging week of 37 degrees
plus days, the fruit stood up remarkably well. Picking
was relatively easy due to the light canopy and crop
yield.
The students also had the opportunity to view a
trailed machine harvester in operation and witnessed
how challenging a tight, contour planted block was to
harvest. A Faith bus carried students back to the Faith
Wine Education Centre to enjoy a sumptuous breakfast
before crushing and pressing the 1 Tonne of Riesling.
Our white crush is nearly finished apart from a 1 Tonne
parcel of Eden Valley Riesling donated by Fechner
Holdings of Angaston. All fruit is ripening fast and we
expect to start are red crush beginning with Shiraz

hands-on STEM workshops focussing on innovative
design thinking, testing and refining ideas. Faith was
their last stop on their tour before they returned to
Canberra, so we were very fortunate to have them
touring in our region.
Lily Johnson and Matilda Collett
All year 9 students participated in the “Wind Tunnel”
workshop in which they were faced with the challenge
of designing an object which would fly the highest and
hover the longest in a wind tunnel. Students designed
both digital and practical prototypes using different
materials and had the opportunity to test and refine
their designs.
They had great fun testing their prototypes, they were
challenged creatively and demonstrated tenacity in the
process of refining of their prototypes. It was a great
opportunity for them to step outside of the classroom
and enjoy Science, Technology, Engineering and Math
in a different setting.

Each year Faith welcomes students from over 20 public and Lutheran primary schools from the Barossa and beyond? As the only ELC - Year 12 Lutheran school in the region, we work closely with our neighbouring schools to welcome students at all stages of their educational journey. WHAT MAKES A LUTHERAN SCHOOL SPECIAL? We call it the ‘L’ Factor… As young people grow and learn, they are influenced by family, friends, media and their school. As leaders we believe that young people who have experienced a Lutheran education have the ‘L’ factor…… the ‘Lutheran’ factor. Not only are these students identifiable because of their love of learning, but because of their social, emotional and spiritual awareness. Graduates of Lutheran schools are ‘world ready’ and often demonstrate compassion, service, love for others, confidence and a desire to make a difference in their world. It is that time of year that many of our neighbouring schools are hosting Open Days and tours.
