Published for the Scopus Community Editor: Vicki Davis

Lehitraot ChaverHilton Rubin came to Mount Scopus in1990, a highly significant year in modernhistory.

It was the year that marked the collapseof the Soviet Union, the reunification ofEast and West Germany, and the finalconcert conducted by LeonardBernstein.

It was also a year in which remarkableleaders shone: Nelson Mandela wasreleased from prison, Margaret Thatcherresigned after almost 12 years as PrimeMinister of the UK and Hilton Rubincommenced his 16-year career at MountScopus College.

Hilton’s many innovations have changedthe face of Scopus. During his time here,we have seen the construction of theBesen Family Performing Arts Centreand the Slezak Multimedia andTechnology Centre, the initiation of theTalmud class, Beit Midrash, Kavanahand Derech Eretz programs, and theintroduction of the InternationalBaccalaureate’s Primary Years Programand Middle Years Program. Now, on hisretirement from the College, we arefacing the end of an era.

In the Oscar-winning movie Mr Holland’sOpus, Olympia Dukakis says somethingthat I believe encapsulates Hilton’sphilosophy: “A teacher has two jobs:one, to fill young minds with knowledge.Yes. But more importantly, to give thoseminds a compass so that the knowledgedoesn’t go to waste.” During Hilton’stime at Scopus he has fulfilled boththese jobs. With a love for people,teaching and Jewish values, Hilton hasinspired students and staff to find theirown compass for enrichment andfulfilment.

Hilton is a man who recognisesindividual difference and celebrates it!We have all benefited from the fact that,during his time at Mount Scopus, ourschool has become a place of learningthat excels at identifying and nurturingthat which is unique and outstanding inits students. This is evident in thestunning array of choice andopportunities offered in our programsoperating from Kinder to Year 12.

It is to Hilton’s credit that Scopuseducates ‘al pih darkoh’ (according toeach individual’s way).

Rashi says that man may consider threepeople his parents: his mother, fatherand his teacher. For although his parentsbrought him into this world, his teachergives him the tools and merit to enterthe World To Come. Hilton is thereforethe father of a very large family! Scopusis indebted to Hilton for all he has given,and all that he leaves behind.

We are going to miss Hilton. We wishhim hatzlacha rabbah in his futureendeavours and nesiah tova for all hisfuture journeys.

Sport soars

Sport and Physical Education haveundergone a reincarnation at Scopus inrecent years.

While the choice of sports on offer hascertainly expanded, the realtransformation has been in students’participation and enthusiasm.

Through the Eastern IndependentSchools of Melbourne (EISM) interschoolcompetition, secondary students canchoose over 20 sports. From thetraditional football, cricket and netball, tobasketball, golf, soccer, tennis, hockey,badminton and more, students canalways find something of interest.

A team of 35 coaches works with Headof Sport and Physical Education, RobScholz, to ensure students have theskills and training needed to perform attheir best.

This structured, professional approach isalready reaping rewards with secondaryteams winning a staggering 17premierships this year, included our firstever Division 1 football premiership, aswell as gold in the Victorian Volleyball AllSchools Cup.

While Rob Scholz sees it as his duty toinstil a love of sport and physical activityin students, he knows the attitudesdeveloped on the sports field can beapplied across almost every subject andcarried with them for life.

With this in mind, he has introduced aunique program for Year 10 students inTerm 4 when senior interschoolcompetition is finished. Students choosefrom one of seven activities to try for afive week period: indoor rock climbing,snorkelling, ice skating, yoga, lawnbowls, 10 pin bowling and indoor bodyboarding. From all accounts theresponse has been sensational.

Chief Rabbi inspiresChief Rabbi of the Commonwealth, SirJonathan Sacks challenged students to“write their own chapter in the story ofthe Jews”, when he spoke at Scopusrecently.

He told students how as a people, Jewsare a tiny group, but we make adifference because we empower ourchildren to carry on traditions througheducation.

“Our family tree goes back longer thanany other in civilised history”, RabbiSacks said.

Comparing Jewish and Egyptian history,Rabbi Sacks made the observation thatwhile Egyptian civilisation lives only inmuseums now, we Jews, who wereonce their slaves, have survived andflourished.

By engraving our values on the heartsand minds of our children, and they ontheir children and so on, we haveachieved the sort of immortality theancient Pharaohs only dreamed of, heexplained.

“In Judaism, the greatest honour is to bea teacher”, Rabbi Sacks emphasised.The first thing Jews do when they moveto a new area is to build schools, likeScopus, to ensure that continuity.

“Our nation lives forever througheducation”, he told students.

He concluded by inspiring them to “carrytheir faith with pride”.

Our amazing raceUnder the International BaccalaureateMiddle Years Program (MYP), ourcurriculum incorporates activities thatenable students to engage in communityinvolvement, off-campus investigationsand collaboration with other schools andthe wider community.

Recently Year 8 students raced aroundthe city to discover some of the secretsof Melbourne.

The Humanities excursion onimmigration and multiculturalism wasdesigned to enhance and enrich learningthat had taken place in the classroom. Students completed tasks in small groupsby following clues and maps. They had toread maps and learn to use publictransport to make their way from oneinteresting landmark to the next. AtBirrarung Marr, they learned to appreciatethe connection between Australia’sindigenous people and their land.

The Amazing Scopus Race tookstudents to places some never knewexisted, including a foreign bookshop,Little Italy, and the Melbourne CityBaths, as well as the Chinese andImmigration Museums, the State Libraryand Glick’s.

The excursion was structured toencompass the MYP principles of learningfocusing on cultural awareness,environment, and community and service.

Year 9 Achshav InitiativeWe are excited to introduce the inaugural Year 9 Experience for the 2007 school year.

The aim of the Achshav Initiative (If Not Now, When…) is to involve students in anexperiential and reflective program, with a focus on issues and activities outside thetraditional classroom format. The opportunities for our students will include a CityCampus, Level 1 St John First Aid Training, the Creating Conversations Drug Educationprogram, an overnight farm stay, REACH workshops and community service projects.

Each new term will provide a different educational focus for students to embrace.Students will develop independence and attain a greater understanding of the worldaround them through the different activities. Incorporating the philosophies of the IBMiddle Years Program, the emphasis will be on ensuring academic disciplines inter-relatewith the program outside the classroom and so enable our students to understand theconnection between their classroom learning and the outside world.

In a dynamic and ever changing world, Scopus strives to provide a balance in learning,because education is more than just a curriculum of traditional academic subjects. Weencourage participation by promoting a variety of physical, social and academic activitiesto engage students. Mount Scopus Year 9 students are ready for the challenge.

My first SiddurThere was an air of excitement aroundour junior campuses recently, when Year1 students received their first siddurimduring special Siddur Presentationceremonies. A week earlier their parentshad come to school to design anddecorate the covers, using an array ofJewish symbols, plenty of glitter andfabric paint. Each book was lovinglyinscribed with wishes and hopes by theparents to their child.

These ceremonies were more than justreceiving a precious gift. They were acelebration of learning that our studentsbegan on their first day of kindergartenand will stay with them for the rest oftheir lives.

Adam Segal, Head of Primary JewishStudies explains, “It is knowing that ourchildren can go into any synagoguearound the world and be able to readfrom a siddur and identify with othermembers of our Jewish community”.

Kol Hakavod to all our Year 1 students.
