Performing Arts flourishes
Making Kynnections
Mount Scopus College was honoured to host
the first roundtable discussion evening of the
Kynnections Project. A Department of Immigration
and Citizenship program under their Diversity and
Cohesion initiative, the project brings together
young people from diverse backgrounds. Over
three meetings and visits to the Parliaments of
both Victoria and Australia, students learn about
the cultural identity of various Australians and
work together to promote a more harmonious
multicultural society.
The first evening focussed on cultural identity and
involved 15 Scopus Year 12 students, together
with 45 students from other schools. Speakers
included, Avi Cohen, Director of the Alter Family
School of Jewish Studies and Ivrit, John Searle,
Chair of the Victorian Equal Opportunity and
Human Rights Commission, Ahmed Dini, People
of Australia Ambassador, Yasmin Hassan, Youth
Commissioner with the Victorian Multicultural
Commission, and Chin Tan, Chair of the Victorian
Multicultural Commission.
A scene from Little Shop of Horrors
With tongue firmly planted in cheek, secondary students presented
Little Shop of Horrors to appreciative audiences. A comedy rock
musical about a hapless florist shop worker who raises a larger than
life plant with unusual eating habits that quickly becomes an overnight
sensation, Little Shop of Horrors was a huge success. The production
featured flamboyant sets and spectacular costumes, and a cast, band
and crew of over seventy students from Years 7-12, together with one
very large carnivorous plant.

Students from diverse backgrounds
came together for the Kynnections Project
Secondary students also performed Brecht – An Epic Journey,
featuring selected works by theatrical visionary Bertolt Brecht earlier
this term. The performance included Galileo, a text on the VCE
English curriculum this year, with the cast of Years 10, 11 and 12
students playing multiple roles in the three works performed.

From the Principal
Premier’s VCE Awards
At this time of year, many Year 12s are imagining their future
– through a gap year, university and beyond – but often the
excitement is tinged with a little sadness that their Scopus
days are coming to an end.
Mazal Tov to our 2012 Premier’s VCE Award winners:
And it’s not just about the fun side of Scopus – significant
though that is. The College provides its students with an ethos,
the encouragement and opportunity to learn, and a social
environment. If these were to all cease at the end of Year 12
that would indeed be a loss.
That is why the Informal Education Department, together
with the Old Collegians themselves, has been developing the
Scopus Alumni Program. A schedule aimed especially at
uni students that includes social events, general and Jewish
learning activities and a weekly Friday night minyan bring
Scopus graduates (and others) together and enables them to
continue to feel the Scopus spirit, in a modified form that suits
their age and stage of life.
The alumni program also has as its aim to give our Old
Collegians, if they wish, an ongoing connection with the
College and with the Community. Too often students feel that
after benefitting from the Jewish and communal engagement
that they have enjoyed at school, they seek in vain for
equivalent avenues of connection while at uni. The Scopus
alumni activities meet such a need.
Our Mission Statement commits us to the promotion of lifelong
learning, and the ideals, attitudes and informed choices that we
hope to provide our students should not stop at the end of Year
12. You can take students out of Scopus, but, for those who
wish, you can leave some of Scopus in the students.

Going Green
Sustainability is central to all aspects of school life, from
classroom practices to playground recycling, and is
at the core of many of our enrichment programs. Our
primary campuses compost all biodegradable materials
and students use the worm farm rich compost soil in
their garden programs. Using tank water, students plant,
water, mulch and fertilise their crops, then harvest their
produce to cook and enjoy.
www.twitter.com/MountScopus
Energy efficient lighting is installed at all campuses, paper
and cardboard is recycled and our primary school buildings
at Gandel Besen House and Smorgon Family Primary School
have their own recycled water supply systems for flushing
toilets. The College has a tank water capacity of 200,000
litres, used to water garden beds and sporting ovals, while
the planting of warm season grasses and native species has
helped reduce our water usage.
A new partnership with Jewish Aid sees Smorgon Family
Primary School students donating food cooked in our
kitchen garden program to the Sudanese community of
Melbourne, allowing students to give back through their
cooking.
Primary and Secondary Environment Captains
run awareness campaigns throughout the year on
sustainability, recycling, coastal care and waterway
pollution issues.

Parent education evenings
Each year parents of children in our early learning
centres and Gan Gani toddlers program are invited
to a series of talks on areas of interest to parents of
young children, such as nutrition, building resilience
and toilet-training.

Our most recent session focused on technology and
was presented by the College E-Learning Coordinator,
Erwin Dumenden and Prep teacher Kerry Zetzer. Their
multi-media presentation highlighted how iPads
are used in kinder and Prep at Scopus to build
positive social behaviour through cooperation and
collaboration, whilst developing the students’ selfexpression and creativity in ways that would not be
possible if that technology was not adopted.
It has been an incredibly successful semester for our sporting
teams with a number of premierships and state titles.
Both our Secondary Athletics and Swimming teams finished
in the top five schools from a pool of 22, with our swimming
team achieving its best ever result of fourth place and within
only a few points of third place.
Extra training and specialist coaches have strengthened both
teams and firmly cemented Scopus as a force to be reckoned
with in the pool and on the track.
In addition, our Senior Boys Softball team won the Eastern
Independent Schools of Melbourne (EISM) Softball Premiership
for the third year in a row, defeating Billanook College 16-6.
For the first time Scopus entered a mixed team of Years 10-12
students in the Victorian Secondary Schools Touch Rugby
Championships, where they won the U18 mixed plate division
to become state champions.
Congratulations to our U15 Girls team who are also the state
champions in the plate division of the Victorian Schools Touch
Rugby Championships and are the first female team from
Scopus to win a state title at these championships.

Arty Hero
In 2012, the
College was
fortunate to host
artist-in-residence
J.K.B. Fletcher.
‘Fletch’ worked
with Visual Arts
students, sharing
his stimulus,
techniques
and artistic
background.
Fletch ran
workshops
demonstrating
his hyper realist
Artist-in-residence, J.K.B. Fletcher

Following his time at Scopus, students produced a
composite mural of 16 individual panels of oil paintings
based on his theme of flawed superheroes. Their work,
titled ‘Arty Hero’, now hangs in the Slezak Multimedia
and Technology Centre at the College for all to admire.

If not now, when?
With the availability of iPads in
class, primary students and
teachers are able to demonstrate
learning and provoke thinking
through video. Students are also
learning about copyright and film
techniques. Teachers and students
are able to embed short videos
into class blogs to celebrate or to
extend learning.
Old Collegian, Yael Codron spoke about organ donation to senior students
Community Service is a way of life at Scopus and our students start young.
In kindergarten our children learn the importance of giving back and helping others.
Primary students have made gifts for Sudanese children, visited Montefiore Homes
to sing for elderly residents, raised money from weekly Shabbat tzedakah to
sponsor a child at Neve Michael Children’s Village in Israel for a year, and worked
weekly with young adults from Access in the community garden at Gandel Besen
House.
Year 5 students made over 150 bears for the Build-a-Bear Teddy Bear Hospital
event at Etihad Stadium on Good Friday and raised much needed funds for The
Royal Children’s Hospital.
All Secondary students take part in a structured Community Service program,
including an Ethical Living Day for Year 7 and volunteer work for all students at
community organisations ranging from RSPCA and the Asylum Seeker Resource
Centre to Jewish Care, Sacred Heart Primary School in Fitzroy and Emmy Monash.
A Refugee Awareness Day for Year 10, the Kynnections multicultural project for Year
12 and regular volunteering with the New Stars Homework Club provide a range of
experiences.
A new way our students are
sharing their learning is through the
use of QR codes (quick response
codes). QR codes are a form
of matrix barcode label that is
machine readable and can record
large amounts of data.
When scanned with a mobile
phone equipped with a QR code
reader app, our Scopus QR codes
take you to a dedicated book
trailer or short video created by
our students and teachers using
iMovie. The QR codes allow the
community to see some of the
great work our students are doing
with moving images.
To see how they work, just scan the
codes below using a QR code reader
app installed on your mobile phone.
Students also heard from a variety of guest speakers, including Old Collegian, Yael
Codron, ‘98 who spoke about her kidney transplant, and on the wider issue of organ
donation and the importance for us all to think carefully about this important issue.

weekly activities like lunch orders, tuck shop and Challah sales.
Volunteers are always needed and their work is much
appreciated. To volunteer a few hours each week,
please contact Brenda McMahon (Manager)

to meet Carlton young gun Chris Yarran!
None of this would be possible without the wonderful support of
our fabulous parent volunteers and the amazing generosity of our
sponsors. Stay tuned for some great PA events in the coming months.

Young Alumni program grows
2013 Reunions
The Young Alumni program started by a committee of Old
Collegians continues to grow with support from the College’s
Informal Education team.
Recent events have included an intimate Yom Hashaoh Zikaron b
Salon (remembering in the livingroom) evening and a Tikun Leil
Shavuot where over 80 people heard from speakers on topics
ranging from the Jewish community’s response to victims of sexual
abuse, reflections on the Boston bombings from first hand witness,
Dr Howard Goldenberg, to Jewish medical ethics and discussing
the Torah concept Na’aseh v Nishma (we will do and we will hear).
In June a Newsroom session saw journalist Michael Gawenda speak
on the Australian media’s coverage of election campaigns and how
this affects public perception. Together with weekly shiurim held at
the homes of Old Collegians, and Friday night youth minyans, young
alumni events are open to all, not just Scopus alumni.
To find out more go to ‘Alumni Sessions’ on Facebook.
Helen Lewitan, Jason Blumenthal and Carli Goldberg
The Class of 2008 held a fantastic five year reunion
at the Palate Bar in Prahran. Over 100 Old Collegians

Scopus Flashback
The items pictured are a window into the thousands of artifacts collected,
identified, digitised and archived by the dedicated volunteers who meet each
Wednesday at The Helen Synman Archive Project. Newly appointed Project
Manager Frankie Pinch, believes the Archive is “a hugely important body of
work which documents the valuable history of the College and provides a
fascinating insight into life on campus through the seven decades since the
school was founded”.
The Archive Centre assists Old Collegians with reunions, as well as helping
tertiary students with research and will shortly become available to the
broader school community and as a resource for students and parents.
In mid-2014, there are plans to mount an exhibition in the Archive Project
space, which occupies part of the former Stanton Kindergarten in Milford Ave,
Burwood.
Items donated to the Helen Synman Archive Project
The Helen Synman Archive Project is open Wednesdays (9.30pm-4.00pm)
and warmly welcomes all visitors. To arrange a visit, discuss donating
memorabilia or to volunteer your time, please contact Frankie Pinch at
[email protected] or on 9834 0087 (Wednesdays).

Class of 1961
Memorial Bursary
When the Class of ‘61 came
together for their 50 Year Reunion
they decided they would like to
acknowledge the passing of some
of their classmates and at the same
time give back to Scopus. Their
fundraising efforts, with the support
of the College, have resulted in
the creation of the ‘Class of 1961
Memorial Bursary’ which honours the
