Snippets…

June 8, 2017 By editor

Year 12 students from Forbes High School at CSU. They are (L-R) CSU rep, Maddi Collits, Finnlay Bennet, Jack Hodges-Lockwood and Mitchell Ashcroft.

 

Planning A New Life: Life after school can be a confusing time for students, however at Forbes High School senior students are offered many opportunities, support and advice to help them. Careers advisor Daniel West ensures all students have access to the right information, while a variety of experiences are also on offer. So far this year many of our senior students have participated in the annual tertiary excursion to various universities, the defence force, CSU, Sydney University Roadshow and attended the Tertiary Awareness Day.

Capture Life In Australia: Amateur and professional photographers are invited to submit images that depict their interpretation of life in Australia for one of the country’s most prestigious photography exhibitions and prizes.

Snappers across the country can enter the City of Sydney’s Australian Life photography competition for the chance to win $10,000 and have their work showcased in an outdoor exhibition.

scale portraits for the exhibition from 14th September to 8th October. Entries open today and close on 28th July. Read more about the competition at artandabout.com. au

Healing Music: Arts OutWest is looking for six experienced musicians in the Central West to work in hospitals and aged care. This is a paid opportunity and applications close 13th June with training in Parkes at the end of the month.

You don’t need to be a professional musician or have music qualifications but must be able to demonstrate accomplishment. It is open to musicians of all styles and genres – although a versatile and wide repertoire is an advantage, as well as instruments that are portable and not extremely loud. The program calls on musicians to work in flexible, fluid, responsive and dynamic ways in hospitals.

The two-day training program includes sessions with UK-based leaders in this field, Opus and with trained music therapist Kerrie Davies. The training includes practical experience in Parkes Hospital with follow up supervised sessions in other local hospitals or aged care facilities. Download the selection criteria from www.artsoutwest.org.au. Contact Arts Out- West executive director Tracey Callinan on 6338 4657 or artsoutwest@csu.edu.au
