GETTING A HEAD-START
Having a set pathway at the end of Year 12 is one of the
attractions of a School Based Apprenticeship.
While some of us are still tucked up in bed in the
mornings, certain students from Faith Lutheran College’s
School Based Apprenticeships and Traineeships (SBATs)
program are already in a workshop, out in the vineyard
or at a Community Childcare Centre getting a head-start
on their future careers.
Students are flourishing under the support and guidance
of VET Coordinator Dianne Sanders, who undertakes
thorough counselling sessions and fills out forms with
                                                              Jacob Jaeschke – School Based Agricultural Mechanical
students prior to their commencement, to ensure

the right students are placed with their most suitable
employer.
Crucial planning and ongoing support takes place to
ensure students keep their school, work and training
commitments in balance, and scheduled site visits
identify potential areas of support throughout the
program.
The students are in their chosen workplace at least 1 day
per week and additional theory classes take the place of
1 or more school subjects and attracts SACE credits. After
successfully completing SACE, students convert to a full-
time apprenticeship.
Upon meeting some of these students it’s impressive to
learn that many of them work full time in the holidays
in addition to their school study commitments, already
displaying critical skills including respect, communication
and teamwork, dedication and diligence to undertake           Mitchell Noack - School Based Engineering Apprentice

                                                         definitely worth it. Next year hopefully I’ll go to uni to

JACK TILLEY, YEAR 12
School Based Electrical Apprentice (SBAT) at Torrens
Valley Electrical, Certificate III in Electrotechnology
(Technician) at TAFESA

Describe your average week
Monday, Tuesday and Friday I wake up a lot earlier and
go to work at Torrens Valley Electrical. The other days
I go to school and study Essential Maths and Research
Project. On school days I sometimes stay later after
school and get help from my teachers to catch up on
my school work. It’s actually hard to sit still in a class
room after running around flat out working for two
days, non-stop. I get really hungry at school as the day
is so structured.

Why did you take on a School Based
Apprenticeship?
I had the opportunity for a School Based Apprenticeship
and I took it. I got to start my apprenticeship early so I
will finish earlier than most people. I’m 17 and already
in my second year. I like earning money and gaining
experience.

How are you supported at Faith Lutheran
College?                                                      BATTERY RECYCLE BIN
Faith supports me in lots of ways. Teachers are really
good to me and are always asking me how I’m going
and are always there to help me out of school hours.
I also have meetings with my VET Coordinator every
fortnight to make sure I’m on track with my school
work, training and work.

What do you find challenging?
Trying to concentrate when I come to school is really
hard. It’s also a big thing to try and find time for
homework. The weeks that I am at trade school, I am
too tired to do school work after a day of trade school.

Would you recommend an SBAT to other
students?
If other students had the opportunity to do an SBAT
they should take it. It’s great to get a qualification at a
young age to have that under your belt for the future.
It’s good to have a break from school each week. I’m          Student Services has recently received a battery

SCIENCE VS RELIGION…
A topic of robust discussion… can the two co-exist? If so, how?
At Chapel last week Chaplain Adam Yeager explained why Science and Religion are designed to work together, and
what this has to do with music. We started with a random topic called out from our Chapel audience, and three
teachers on the stage; a Scientist (Mr Gambell), an English teacher (Ms Newbold) and an Artist (Mrs O’Dea). Each
teacher had their own blank canvas in front of them, a laptop, a pen and paper and paint.
Each teacher worked on the same topic – music.
Adam shared how Science and Religion work together while
our teachers spent 10 minutes exploring the topic of music.

WE LOOKED AT SCIENCE… THINGS
THAT CAN BE MEASURED
Photosynthesis, Gravity, Energy expenditure, Solar flares,
Ocean depths, Neurotransmitters, Heat rates, CO2
Production, Heat exchange, Population growth, Exothermic
reactions, Species growth and change, DNA replication rates.

WE LOOKED AT RELIGION… THE
IMMEASURABLE
Beauty, Love, Joy, Hope, Faith, Transcendence, Meaning
of life, Life after death, Why the universe exists, Purpose,
Wonder, The soul, Miracles.
Our teachers constructed diagrams, wrote poems and
brushed with painted colour. Although the topic was the
same, the outcomes were very different.

We heard a beautiful poem, a lifetime of music influence.
We heard a Scientific report, detailed diagrams and
description on how music works.
We enjoyed a painting, a colourful depiction of music and joy.

AND WE REFLECTED                                                            religion without science is blind.
One topic, different interpretations. Different perceptions.                                         Albert Einstein
No one was right, no one was wrong.
We bring our ideas, our gifts, our
talents and we each hold a view.
Our world is filled both with beauty and
photosynthesis. We can have faith and
solar flares.
It is not a matter of Science or Religion.
It can be both. It is both. We can
celebrate both.
Just because you can’t measure
something, doesn’t mean it isn’t there.
Science is one way of understanding
God’s creation, Religion is another.

TESTING THE LATEST
TECHNOLOGY AT
WAITE CAMPUS
Craig Moore, Teacher
On Wednesday 29th May the Year 12
Agriculture students attended Waite
Campus as a part of their course looking
into the latest technology being used in
plant breeding. Students extracted DNA
and then learned how to copy it and also
how to isolate genes through a range of
hands-on practical activities. They toured
through the $40 Million Plant Accelerator
facility which uses a range of imaging,
robotics, and automated processes in the
development of new crop varieties.         Year 12 students in the lab            Blake Dahlitz experimenting

On 21 May 8 students attended the Senior students Gifted and Talented Study Conference at Concordia College. The
aim of the day was to help students to improve their thinking skills, begin to be able to identify what is fundamental
from what is trivial, become intellectually creative, identify assumptions and distinguish between good and poor
arguments and, think systematically and rigorously about relevant modern-day issues

CELEBRATING YEAR 8 AGRICULTURE
LEARNING CONTINUES TO
THE KITCHEN TABLE
Amidst wheelbarrows, rakes, watering cans and garden
stakes, our Year 8 Agriculture students have been
working diligently in their own garden plot. During their
Vegetable Production learning unit, students chose from
a variety of winter vegetables to plant and nurture.
During a recent harvest, students could be heard
excitedly comparing the sizes of broccoli heads and
discussing potential recipes for their fresh produce to
cook at home. Winter vegetables in the garden included
broccoli, turnips, coriander, carrots, peas and radishes.      William Lindner watering his veggie patch

FAITH FARM – FEEDING AND
CARING FOR OUR ANIMALS
The rolling hills and vineyards surrounding the College provide a
constant reminder that we are in the heart of farming country. At
recess times our College farm is a hive of activity as Agriculture
students rotate their responsibilities to feed and care for our growing
animals.
The chickens are fed and watered by Year 9 students and our Year 8        Mitchell Mosey Year 8
students prepare the morning meal for the two visiting dairy calves.
In the background, the steers make their presence known, waiting
for Cattle Club and the attention they receive from students learning
to handle and guide them.
The wethers are checked and fed again at lunchtime, while students
watch in delight as the goats play impulsively in their pens.
The distant sound of the recess bell reminds students to head back
to class, farm life for the animals continues as they grow and learn
alongside the students. The Faith Farm truly is a special place.          Ebony Noack Year 8

FUTURE PATHWAYS
Viticulture Work Experience – Read Year 10 Experiences!

Trish Cirillo, Pathways Coordinator
Nicki Robins from Barossa Grape and Wine Association – BGWA together with many local vineyards and wineries
collaborated together to provide the opportunity for all regional students to participate in a fabulous week of work
experience for students to explore the many career opportunities in the Wine and Viticulture industry.
Year 10 students Oscar Jenke, Caleb Schwartz and Karlson Jaensch chose to participate in this week of work
experience to explore what opportunities might be available in their future endeavours. Please read their
experiences and learn of the varied activities they participated in.

CALEB SCHWARTZ
I applied for the Viticulture work experience week because I have enjoyed learning about the topic in agriculture
classes at school and wanted to expand my knowledge of the industry and all of the different aspects of it. I also
went to determine if a job in the viticulture industry is something that I would want to pursue or not, and felt the
week would be an excellent way of determining that.
In terms of hands on activities, during the week we took part in activities including conducting soil tests on things
like pH, Salinity, Soil type (e.g. clay, loam, sand, etc.). We participated in pruning and were taught spur and rod and
spur pruning methods. In other activities, we looked at technology including automatic planters, drones, tractors,
spraying units, pre-pruners, and phone apps and we met farmers, contractors and vineyard managers.
I enjoyed the week and enjoyed meeting people with important roles in the viticulture industry and hearing them
speak about their area of expertise. The week was well organised by Nicki and I learnt a lot about what makes up
the viticulture industry.
I enjoyed the whole week but my favourite activities would probably be the pruning, I enjoyed the hands on nature
of that topic and found it an enjoyable one. I also enjoyed visiting the Yalumba Nursery and looking at their facilities
for grafting and growing grape vines.
I do not really know what my future pathway is going to involve but through the week, I now know how I would be
able to establish a career in the viticulture industry. If I did go into viticulture I now have a more specific view on
what area I would want to follow.

FUTURE PATHWAYS - VITICULTURE WORK EXPERIENCE
KARLSON JAENSCH
I applied for the Viticulture work experience week because I was interested in viticulture and wanted to learn more.
We were able to prune, graft and do soil testing and watch a lot of different machines and people in action.
It was good to see what jobs were out there in the viticulture industry and I liked doing the grafting and liaising with
the instructor talking about where he worked and how to use the tools effectively.
This was a good opportunity to learn more about the industry and the opportunity has opened more doors for me to
continue to explore.

OSCAR JENKE
I applied for the Viticulture work experience week to see what my future could be like and to see what other people
do and bring that knowledge back to my family farm.
I participated in pruning and I asked many questions throughout the week to learn as much as I could. I definitely
enjoyed the week and I learnt a lot. I hope the program continues, as it is very beneficial.
My favourite activities of this week were doing rod and spur, spur, pruning, listening to the vineyard couples speak
about how they got to here and their homemade modifications, listening to all the people speak about what they do
in the Barossa and having tours around their facilities.
I believe this experience has opened more doors into my future and I am confident on what industry I am going into.

Thank you to Nicki Robins for arranging and working tirelessly to offer this wonderful opportunity to all regional
students. The students found it engaging and very informative. Mr Mitchell, Mrs Sanders and I visited the students
during the week and we were impressed with student interactions with industry and the programmed activities.

OPEN BOYS FOOTBALL
ROUND 1 2019
Coaches, Mr Schmidt and Mr Clarke
On Tuesday 28th June the Open Boys Football team played Nuriootpa High School in the Round 1 of the Pool A
Secondary Schools Knockout Football competition.
Wearing the new Faith colours for the first time, the team was led onto the field by Captain Benson Heintze and
Vice-Captain Todd Falkenberg.
The wet and windy conditions proved challenging for both teams, however our players adapted a little quicker
with defenders Ben Cornish and Jed Habermann working hard to keep the ball moving forward and create scoring
opportunities up forward. The heavy ball led to some inaccurate kicking though, with the quarter time score sitting
at Faith 1.4 to Nuriootpa HS 0.2.
In the second and third quarters the team began to get the upper hand, with Todd Falkenberg having a great game
in the ruck and giving the midfielders, led by Jacob Fiebiger and Max Roocke, first use of the ball. Shay Linke also
took some excellent overhead marks in the slippery conditions, helping to move the three quarter time score to
Faith 5.8 to Nuriootpa 2.4.
The final quarter saw Nuriootpa lift their intensity and add three quick goals that reduced the lead back to a narrow
4 points. However, the team responded, with some excellent defensive efforts by Jack Hannah, Ned Grieve and
Benson Heintze preventing any further scores. With a few minutes left to play Tyson Healy laid a strong tackle to
win a free kick 50m from goal. He then delivered the ball to a leading Brady Griffiths, who went back and kicked the
match sealing goal. A fantastic team effort in difficult conditions.
The team now moves on the play Cabra in Round 2 at some point in the next 2 weeks.
FINAL SCORE:
Faith 6 . 8 defeated Nuriootpa HS 5 . 4
Best Players:    Jacob Fiebiger, Todd Falkenberg, Jack Hannah, Max Roocke, Shay Linke, Ned Grieve
