Everyone’s favorite nanny came to life on the Scopus stage and filled audiences with more than just a spoonful of theatrical magic, in sold out shows.

Mary Poppins premiered with a cast, crew and orchestra of over 150 students. As the first school in Victoria to stage the show, students presented four practically perfect performances of this visually spectacular, high-energy show. Audiences were singing along to Let’s Go Fly a Kite, A Spoonful of Sugar, Chim Chim Cheree, Step in Time and of course Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Learning in Canberra

Year 6 students travelled to the national capital in Term 1 to enhance their learning on ‘How We Organise Ourselves’ and how the decisions we make have an impact on our community.

Visiting Parliament House, they gained an insight into democracy and our system of government and learned how bills are read and debated in Parliament. They were fortunate to hear from Federal Member for Kooyong and Minister for the Environment and Energy, and Old Collegian, Josh Frydenberg.

At the Australian War Memorial they paid tribute at the tomb of the Unknown Soldier and the Australian Roll of Honour, and enriched their understanding of Australian history and the sacrifices made to protect our land. While at Questacon they put their scientific knowledge to the test, and later had a taste of Israel, meeting with His Excellency Ambassador Shmuel Ben-Shmuel, at the Embassy of Israel.

Connecting through ArtOur Year 10 Visual Art students have been working with talented Melbourne artist Michael Duncan (aka Losop) to create a mural in the school grounds.

Michael spoke to students across all levels about his artistic practice of stencil painting. He then led Year 10 Visual Art students through a process of design generation before selecting

a final design in consultation with Rabbi Kennard. Students helped create the mural, learning the techniques and processes involved in stencil art. The mural explores the theme of connections, suggested by interconnected circles, and growth, referenced by the mountain form at the end of the mural. Students wanted to explore the idea of the lifelong connections made at school and the growth that Mount Scopus provides.

From the PrincipalEach year at Graduation we say farewell to another crop of Year 12 students as they end their Scopus career. But their connection and their family’s connection with the school do not end there. Our College is proud to see itself as the heart of a community that includes students, alumni, and the families of students past and present. Many people fit into more than one category, and some are simultaneously Old Collegians, parents and grandparents of Scopus, with the bond as strong as a threefold cord. Recently we have found new avenues for these bonds to be actualised. I was privileged recently to address our Grandparents and Friends Club, which holds events a few times a year for grandparents and others to learn more about what’s happening in education and at Scopus in particular. With only three events so far, the club has already become a firm and popular feature of the extended College landscape. Reunions and other connections with alumni now have their dedicated manager as part of the administration of the staff, who is working to develop further points of contact for the wider Scopus family. Old Collegians and parents, past and present, serve a vital role as part of our Careers advice events, sharing their experiences of courses and professions with each new generation that are nearing decision time for themselves. And Zooz, the group for recent graduates of Scopus (and other schools), providing a framework for continuing engagement with Judaism, Israel and the community, goes from strength to strength. In this way, Scopus is much more than a school. It’s a community and even for some, a way of life.

Rabbi James Kennard

Council update

The College is most grateful to those parents who give their time, wisdom and expertise as volunteers on the College Council, Executive and Sub-Committees.

We sincerely thank retiring treasurer Shane Gild, who first joined the Council in 2009, the Executive in 2010 and took on the role of Treasurer from 2011-2017. His advice, guidance and distinguished service are truly appreciated. Thank you also to Brendan Hayman who retired from Council and the Executive after many years of tireless work and invaluable service. Our thanks and gratitude also to Laura Davis and Zivit Inbar who stepped down from Council.

Following the Annual Parents’ Meeting we welcome new treasurer Raphael Arndt, Executive member Natalie Bassat and new Council members Debbie Green, Ilan Rimer and Ilan Kraus.

Reconciliation Week

Lew Family Secondary School students took part in a moving Reconciliation Week assembly which reflected on two significant anniversaries in Australia’s reconciliation journey – 50 years since the 1967 referendum that enabled the first Australians to be counted in the census, and 25 years since the historic Mabo decision that undid the myth of terra nullius.

In addition to a number of student presentations and songs, we welcomed guest speaker, Mandy Nicholson, an artist, archaeologist, and leader of the Djirri Djirri Dance Group, who works in the revival of Indigenous languages.

The assembly concluded with a student performance of the Paul Kelly song, From Little Things Big Thing Grow, which tells the story of Aboriginal rights activist Vincent Lingiari AM.

Softball seven Seven has proved a lucky number for our Senior Boys Softball team, winning their seventh consecutive premiership in the EISM (Eastern Independent Schools of Melbourne) summer season grand final.Setting an association record, the team and their coach, Head of Sport, Rob Scholz,

are passionate about the game and put their success down to strategic play, following their coach’s instructions and playing well as a team.

Also celebrating premierships for summer season were the Senior Girls Softball team, the Year 9 Boys Tennis A and B teams, the Year 9 Girls Softball and the Year 9 Boys Ultimate Frisbee. Year 8 Girls Softball, Boys Tennis B and Boys Indoor Cricket teams also finished top of their respective ladders.

Learning together

Each term our junior primary students at Gandel Besen House and Fink Karp Ivany Campus come together for cross-campus activities. Students recently celebrated Yom Yerushalayim and the 50th anniversary of a reunited Jerusalem together, with a host of activities organised by our Sherut girls.

Earlier in the term, Year 2 students took part in a cross-campus exhibition following their inquiry into the design process and the creation of prototypes of an original design. They loved sharing their ideas with their friends at each other’s campus and seeing what everyone had created.

Prep students also came together to celebrate Shavuot and learn about the laws and customs of this special chag.

Taking actionYear 9 students are taking action as part of their Community Project.

The project consolidates their learning in the International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme and allows them to engage in a sustained, in-depth inquiry leading to service in the community.

Students select a community they are interested in, identify a need and then take action to support that community.

Our students are volunteering with the elderly, cleaning up their school and local community, preparing meals for those less fortunate and collecting goods to donate to those in need, as well as raising awareness and in many cases funds for the causes they have chosen.

Over three school terms, they complete four assignments exploring and evaluating the activities undertaken for their chosen community.

Our students are making a difference with organisations including: C Care, Clean Up Australia, Emmy Monash, Friendship Circle, Giant Steps, Guide Dogs Victoria, Jewish Care, Cambodia Community and Service Trip, Mount Scopus bursaries and fundraising, Jewish Teen Giving Initiative, dog rescue shelters, Stand Up and The Posh Opp Shoppe.

Mutual support

For close to a decade, the College has been supporting the Posh Opp Shoppe which so generously supports students with special needs, through the Jewish Schools Intervention Program (JSIP).

Each Wednesday throughout the school year a pair of Year 9 students volunteer for a full day at the Posh Opp Shoppe. They sort and hang stock, stack shelves, clean goods for sale and generally help out where needed. The College is extremely grateful to co-ordinator of the Posh Opp Shoppe, Rosalie Silverstein and her many volunteers for their incredible work.

‘Henry Lanzer Keter Shem Tov – Crown of a Good Name’ AwardMazal Tov to Zoe Finger (OC’16) on being awarded the ‘Henry Lanzer Keter Shem Tov – Crown of a Good Name’ Award at the 2016 Graduation Ball. Recipients of this award, elected by their peers, have demonstrated above all else the attribute of caring for others, and the inclusion of all.

The ‘Henry Lanzer Keter Shem Tov – Crown of a Good Name’ Award is dedicated to Henry Lanzer AM, College Treasurer 1989 to 1996 and Foundation President 1996 to 2014, in honour of his exemplary leadership, wise counsel, significant fundraising efforts and devotion to the College and its students.

Scopus FlashbackLast year Rabbi James Kennard celebrated ten remarkable years of service as Principal. In the 68 year history of Mount Scopus College, over 12,500 students have been educated under the direction of only seven Principals.

To date Rabbi Kennard is the third longest serving Principal:

The Helen Synman Archive has developed collections dedicated to each College Principal, with related memorabilia, artefacts, news cuttings and documents being sought, accessioned, preserved, displayed and stored.

One item recently donated (courtesy of Susie and Michael Small) is the distinctive Fedora hat worn daily by former Principal, Mr Aleksander Ranoschy A”H during the 1960s and 1970s.

Save the date: Helen Synman Archive Project Roadshow: Wednesday 1 November 10am-3pm, an opportunity for alumni, parents, grandparents and friends to view the collection at work. Visitors will be encouraged to share their private collections for assessment and potential inclusion in the permanent collection.

For further information about the Helen Synman Archive contact Frankie Pinch, Project Manager, [email protected] or for further details on the Archive Roadshow, contact Judy Prager, Alumni and Families Relations Manager, [email protected]

Foundation ‘moves’This year marks 30 years since the establishment of the Foundation and we look forward to celebrating this milestone later in the year. This year will also mark the last with Marilyn Simon as its Foundation Executive Director, a role she has held for 21 years.

Together with the Executive of the Foundation, and in her previous roles in the Development Office, Marilyn has helped raise 50 million dollars for the school where she first arrived as a parent volunteer. During her 26 year tenure the school has changed dramatically, not only physically, but also in the growth of programs and opportunities for students and staff. She is well known for her friend-raising as well as her fundraising. We thank her for her many years of outstanding and distinguished service to both the Foundation and the School. Of course she will remain intimately involved as the proud grandmother of Mia, Judd, Zac and Stella.

We are delighted to announce that Marlo Newton will be the new Executive Director from January. Marlo has been in the role of Foundation Fundraising Manager since August last year and will continue to work closely with Marilyn for the rest of this year. Marlo is a former Executive Director of both JNF and UJEB. She is a Scopus graduate, serving as School Captain in 1984. She brings a unique set of skills to the Foundation, having a real understanding of the education sector with strong fundraising and communal experience.

We have an exciting year ahead as we celebrate the 30th anniversary and progress plans for the school renewal.

Sharing their s’machot

Mazal Tov and thank you to Marlon Priester, Year 4 student at Smorgon Family Primary School, who kindly requested donations to the College on the occasion of his 10th birthday.

Thank you also to the family and friends of Marlo Newton, who generously donated to the College on the occasion of Marlo’s 50th birthday.
