SLAS Graduate 2011 - Alice Robinson

Since graduating St Lukes in 2011, I have continued to pursue a career in dance that has led me to travel around the world training and working as a dancer.
I competed 2 years of full time contemporary training in Sydney the years following 2011 and have performed in Hong Kong , the UK ,Europe and toured Australia. I have been a part of The Dream Dance Company , worked on Opera Australias AIDA on the harbour as dance captain and worked on a research week in London for a new West End Musical as well as other various shows and developments. Training in Vienna, Amsterdam and London recently has allowed me to gain knowledge and experience that I can then pass on to students I teach back in Australia. Teaching and sharing my choreography is also something I enjoy. In 2015 and 2016 I have held workshops at The Australian Dance Festival as well as teaching at full time schools like Brent Street, The Village, Ev and Bow , Ettinghausens and Dance Force.
Favourite memory of school is naming the frogs that hide in the park benches in year 5.

Alice.

SLAS Graduate 2002 - Hayden Anderson

Hi Robbo.

1.Where are you now?
I am living in Sydney, NSW. I have been here for 5 years, moving after a short stint in Melbourne where I was playing AFL. I am still active within AFL circles, which was a passion of mine from a young age. I am a coach at the University of Technology AFL club under the tutelage of former Sydney Swans premiership AFL player Nic Fosdike.

2. What do you do?
I am a Marine Technician in the Royal Australian Navy. I have been in the RAN for 6.5 years. The job has taken me to some amazing places around the world, including the Middle East and to various corners of the Asian Pacific. I have been studying Project Management on the side and will be transitioning to an engineering consultancy firm in 2017.

3. What year did you graduate and what did you do after graduating at SLAS?

I graduated in 2002. I joined St Luke’s in 1997 as apart of the inaugural Grade 7 class. I took some time to find my feet after school; I didn’t really know what I wanted to do. I worked in Hotels for a period whilst pursuing my AFL career. I studied education and sociology at CQU and UQ for a short period and also had the chance to complete my first teaching practical back at St Luke’s. I eventually decided that teaching wasn’t for me and moved to Melbourne where I was playing AFL semi-professionally whilst working in Hotels. In 2010 I decided to join the Defence Force which was a dream of mine from a young age.

4. What is a favourite memory or memories from your time at SLAS.?

There a various memories I have from my time at St Luke’s. Being apart of the initial SLATE touch academy was my first initiation into becoming more serious about sport in general, there was a real strong camaraderie amongst everyone within the group. I was one of the youngest members in the senior touch team and can still remember being the “grommet” on the first trip to the National Carnival. The team was stacked with superstars from the touch football and rugby league background; it was a really great experience for me and helped me mature as a young man.

Other memories would be science classes with Mr Johnston, he made the classes so fun and really engaged with me – I wasn’t the most academic student but “Mr J” always managed to keep me connected.

My time at St Luke’s was one of the best experiences in my young life, the school was so full of inspiring and influential people who really helped shaped the man I am today.

Regards,
Hayden Anderson

SLAS Graduate 2005 - Michael Sinclair.

Hi Mr Robinson.

I am currently living by the beach in Bargara with my beautiful wife, Holly. We simply love it here in this lazy little town. This year (2016) I am working as a supply teacher; sometimes at St Luke's Anglican School and serve as a Youth Leader at my church.

After graduation, I deferred university to travel Europe and save (spend every cent of my) money. I was working at an Italian Restaurant while studying which allowed me to continue travelling abroad throughout the Uni breaks. In my final year, I began working as a youth worker for a fostering organisation. I completed my teaching degree in 2011 and was offered a position as a Case Worker and later, Case Manager, where I managed a program for children transitioning from Foster Care.

In 2014, in pursuit of a career in Education, I applied successfully for a position as a teacher aide at St Luke's and was offered a term as PE teacher in the Primary. This was followed by a 12 month contract as Youth Minister in 2015. It was a fantastic opportunity and experience.

My favourite memories from school: Getting on the tennis court or touch footy with Mr Robinson, and getting up to mischief in design technology.
Michael.

All the best for the future

SLAS Old Saint 1998 - Joel Freeman

Hi Robbo,

I have been living back in Bundaberg for the past 6 years with my wife Nicole and 3 children (Taylah 12, Zachary 10 & Kadence 7). Our eldest Taylah now attends Middle school at St Lukes, I am very proud to see another generation go through the school. I have great pride in seeing Taylah don the uniform everyday & extremely pleased that she is in the same Sports house as I was. GO MORRIS!!

I left St Lukes after 1st term of Year 12 1998 to complete my Electrical apprenticeship and have now been an Electrician for the past 18 years working in a variety of different fields from mining, industrial, commercial & domestic and more recently branching out into split system Air Conditioning & Solar. My wife and I run our own Electrical Contracting business 'Rum City Electrical'

I have so many fond memories of my time at St Lukes, some of those being competing in the First 15 Rugby Union competition. The teachers at St Lukes were also fantastic and gave all the encouragement needed for success. The schools facilities were and still are first class!
It is great today to see a couple of teachers still there after all these years and a couple of them are even teaching my daughter now.

I look forward to seeing the school grow and develop as I watch each of my children go through their schooling at St Lukes.

Cheers, Joel

SLAS Graduate 2008 - Rory Oates

Hi Mr Robinson
1. I'm on the verandah with small mosquitoes daring me to stay out longer. In Broome with Emma.
2. What do I do? Complex question because I don't think I fit a specific job title but I have been working as a tour guide. A pearl farm being my latest workplace.
3. After leaving St Lukes I  worked, travelled, worried about life with responsibility, became a student again, travelled in between, fell for a woman, heartbreak, repeat, worked, travelled, repeat.
4. Nobody wants to be at school when they have to. St Lukes was no different. I would much rather have been at the beach. I can tell you in hindsight though, it is likely there will never again be a time when I can hang with so many friends everyday. Isn't hindsight so most bittersweet!
Rory.

SLAS Graduate 2007 - Nic Gibson

Hi Mr R.

Where are you now?
Currently living back in Bundaberg after traveling overseas and living in Gladstone for almost 4 years.

What do you do?
I am a University student at CQU Bundaberg, 1st year in Bachelor of Education Secondary minoring and majoring in Mathematics and Health and Physical Education. Have just started pre-service teaching at St Luke's Anglican School.

What did you do after graduating St Luke's Anglican School?
Upon finishing up at St Luke's I worked in many fields such as locksmithing and security, floor sanding and scaffolding. Most recently just finished up as a Process Technician at Rio Tinto Alcan. I have had many other labouring jobs during that time as well, until finally deciding to go back to University.
During this time I also traveled overseas to America, New Zealand and Japan. Japan being the most recent and exciting country I visited. I Backpacked for a one month period with no set times or places to be. Traveled from the top of the main land, Osorezan near a town called Mutsu, down to the southern area of Japan's mainland, Nagasaki. I traveled up and down both East and the West coasts of Japan, doing nearly a full round trip.

What is a favourite memory of St Luke's?
The general community of the school, I have always remembered St Luke's as a close community rather than a school. If I had to select one memory in particular it would have to be physics classes with my still good friend Lance Sisolo and our antics we would get up to.

Nic

All the best for the future.

SLAS Graduate 2000 - Natalie Rethamel (Natalie Warburton)

Hi Robbo
I live in Bundaberg and work in our business, my husband and I. After graduating from SLAS I attended Hervey Bay TAFE and completed my diploma in Fitness and Recreation. This enabled me to further my studies at CQU by starting to do a teaching degree. I soon found out that teaching wasn't for me. I became engaged to my husband Dale and a few years later we purchased the business Takalvans. We have now owned the business for 10 years and are incredibly proud of what we have achieved with lots of hard work and no financial backing. We have three fantastic children Jack 6, Emma 3 and Harry 1. Both Jack and Emma attend SLAS and they look forward to going every day. I am sure our children's experience at SLAS will be no different to mine. My favourite memories were of the mate ship developed through sport, especially touch football. Not everyone can be top of the class but if a school can support your talents and know you as a person the sky's the limit. I have not looked back after graduating from SLAS and I look forward to our children receiving the same level of support and guidance through their schooling. Maybe Robbo may even get to coach Emma in touch footy.
Thanks
Nat.

SLAS Graduate 2001- Mitch Davis.

Hi Robbo, I have recently moved back to Bundaberg with my family after spending 13 years living on the Gold Coast. I have been back for just over 6 months and I'm extremely pleased we made the move. I am a physiotherapist at Coral Coast Physiotherapy in Bargara. My niche areas of interest are injury management in endurance athletes, lower limb injuries and exercise based rehabilitation. After graduating from St Luke's I moved south to the Gold Coast to complete a Bachelor of Exercise Science at Griffith University. I followed this up with a Masters of Physiotherapy also at Griffith. I then spent the following years working in a sports physiotherapy practice in Robina. My favourite memory of my time at St Luke's would have to be winning Queensland All Schools touch footy competition in 2000. We trained really hard for that and it paid off. A close second would be the week of the Confraternity Shield when it was held in Bundy, a great competition with some good mates. Thanks Robbo, all the best. Mitch Davis, Physiotherapist.

SLAS Graduate 2014 - Claudia Marcus

Hi Mr Robinson! 

Q1. Where are you now?

I am living in Brisbane so that I can attend university.

Q2. What do you do?

I am a second year university student studying a Bachelor of Music (BMus) at the Queensland Conservatorium of Music. I am studying Classical Voice and also incorporating cello into some of my courses. I am a member of the Griffith Honours College which consists of the top 2% of undergraduate students at the university. I successfully auditioned for the Val Machin scenes of “The Magic Flute” this year alongside another Old Saint, Emily McWhirter-Peddlesden. Currently, I have a casual weekend job to save up for a trip to America in January next year to tour with Gondwana Chorale; an organisation that I was a part of and toured internationally with throughout high-school that is based in Sydney.

Q3. What did you do after graduating at SLAS?

I graduated St Luke’s already having an offer for tertiary study from the Conservatorium. I worked part-time over the summer break and moved to Brisbane to commence university. I began teaching piano and singing to private students and also tutored primary students in Maths and English during my first year out of high-school.

Q4. What is your favourite memory from your time at SLAS?

My favourite memories of school were all created during music and drama rehearsals and performances. I valued the fluidity of friendships between year levels within the music department. On reflection, I commenced university with the advantage of a broad musical knowledge and skill set, surpassing that of my peers from around Australia. For that I have to thank the music teachers at St Luke’s, in particular Peter Rickert and Robert Rotar whose dedication, inspiration and flair was invaluable and integral in my decision to pursue a career in music.

Regards

Claudia

SLAS Graduate 1998 - Jarod Tump

Hi Robbo,

After graduating I moved to Brisbane to start the next phase of my life. I wasn’t that interested in going to Uni so I found myself a job and worked hard, which ultimately led to where I am today. I also continued to play touch football at a fairly high level representing Qld and Australia.

Today I work for Dynamic Supplies who are a leading printer and print consumables distributor as the National account manager. My role is very challenging and fulfilling. I started out in the warehouse as a storeman and worked my way up in this business through a lot of hard work and dedication. The accounts I manage today total approximately 100 million dollars.

I live on 5 acres with my beautiful wife and baby boy. I have a border collie and a few horses. So plenty to keep me busy.

I dropped into St Luke’s last year at Christmas time and it really did bring back some great memories, too many to list. The biggest thing that I took away from my time at St Luke’s was the respect I learnt. I was only at St Luke’s for a few years, but the time I spent there set me on the right path. I owe so much to where I am now and the person I am to my time at the school.  I will always have fond memories of all the friends I made with both the students but also the teachers.

I gained a Fitter and Turner Apprenticeship with the Bundaberg Regional Council in 2003.  On completing my 4 year Apprenticeship I moved to Brisbane to further my employment prospects which began with the Brisbane City Council in 2007.   

4.What is a favourite memory from your time at SLAS?

My education at SLAS began when I entered Year 8.  A very clear memory for me regarding my 5 years at St Luke's is the interactive learning in the classroom/workshop with excellent teacher support.  My favourite subjects were "Industrial Skills"  and "Senior Technology Studies".   I had a high regard for our Teacher at the time, Mr McCulloch. 

I also established some very genuine friendships during my years at SLAS, and these friendships are even stronger today, we are now all parents ourselves and regularly keep in touch.

Having gained a broad range of experience throughout these roles and the amalgamation of four councils Mitch found an opportunity back at St Luke's as IT Manager which he commenced in January 2011.

Since being at St Luke's Mitch has completed a large number of hardware and software projects which has earned the school being featured in a number of online and magazine editorials. Most of these feature the innovative approach to cost effective deployments of enterprise scale productivity suites and cloud services to better support the school community and facilitate anywhere learning.

Mitch is quoted as saying his best memories from St Luke's are making friends who are still very much a part of his and his families lives today.

All the best for the future.
