3月在瓦吉恩举行的2025 Woolorama活动一直是结识新家庭、与现任寄宿家庭建立联系、以及与现任学生和昔日学子会面的绝佳机会。

Internship Opportunites for Current Students and Old Scholars

Portflio Pathway Opportunities

We have been asked by Craig Doyle, Head of Careers and Pathways, for support for Year 12 non-ATAR portfolio pathway students.

Craig is looking to match students with Old Scholars for short term intensive work experience and possibly site visits, hands-on experience in the areas of:

• Business
• 健身
• Veterinarian work.

If you feel that you could offer such a place, please contact Craig directly.

Old Scholar 3rd Year Environmental Engineering Student (Melbourne)

One of our Old Scholars is studying in Melbourne and about to start her third year of an Environmental Engineering degree at RMIT.

She is now looking to gain practical experience in the field whilst she is studying.  If you can offer her an internship or any work experience in Melbourne she would be very pleased to hear from you.

Please reach out via oldscholars@sthildas.wa.edu and we can put you in touch or supply you with a little more information.

新年10个选修医学预科课程学生支持

Helen Walker, Head of Science, would like to hear from medical old scholars who might be available to talk to the Year 10 students about their work/research and career pathways.

Class 1 – Tuesday 8 April 12.20 – 1.05pm 或 Wednesday 9 April 12.20 – 1.05pm

This would be during class time and the audience would be approximately 20 students (one class) of Year 10s. It would ideally be an informal presentation/chat with the students followed by some time for questions and may work best if we were able to get a couple of presenters in at a time to share the load.

If you might be available to help, please contact oldscholars@sthildas.wa.edu.au.

(Roxana) Anne Cooke (Bushell,1949)

14 December 1932 – 23 December 2024

Jacqueline Tuffin (De Witt, 1959)

18 May 1942 – 2 February 2025

Jackie was born in Leonora on 18 May 1942 and spent most of her childhood in Busselton and Perth. She joined St Hilda’s in February 1956 and graduated in 1959. Jackie’s younger sisters Liz Bell (1960) and Cathy Hohnen (1967) also attended St Hilda’s.

Following graduation, Jackie spent a year in the East Kimberly as a station governess, before taking up a place at the Claremont Teachers’ College. She began teacher training the following year and then interspersed travel with teaching. After spending just one year at the Università per Stranieri (University for Foreigners) in Perugia, Italy, Jackie was fluent in Italian.

She met her husband John Tuffin, also a high school teacher, in Geraldton and they married in London in 1969 and had two boys, Giles and Huw. The family lived in Kambalda, Northam, Geraldton and Perth, and they also spent 1986 in the UK on exchange, and then in 1988 they travelled around Australia. Jackie taught primary school, high school (Italian) and later, after settling back in Perth, she lectured in Women’s Studies at TAFE; a course about which she
was passionate.

Jackie enjoyed a full and very healthy lifestyle and died peacefully with John, Giles and Huw at her bedside, on 2 February 2025. On 16 February more than 100 people attended a celebration of her life where there was much laughter and talk of Jackie as a wonderful person, wife and mother.

Phyllis Hilary Gibson (Hodgson, 1945)

18 July 1928 – 24 November 2024

After graduation in 1945 Phyllis was accepted into nursing training, where she excelled and made lifelong friends.  Having achieved a registered nurse status she returned to the farm in Dalwallinu to care for her mother who was terminally ill and to assist with the farm.

1992 50th Bencubbin Reunion. Back L-R: Ann Nicholas (Troup), Zoe Whitehead (Kelly), Rosemary Gill (Cullen), Frances Moran (Eagleton), Margaret Chambers (Miss Gorie). Middle L-R: Vivienne Haynes (Duce), Dorritt Foster (Tresidder), Edith Campbell (Ball), Nancy House (Richardson), Elizabeth Goode, Phyllis Gibson (Hodgson), Seated: Miss Ellershaw, Miss Seacombe.

Whilst there, she became aware of David Gibson, who was share farming with a friend. They eventually married and had three children; Michael, Marian (Gibson , 1974) and Richard.  David was a Christ Church Old Boy, so the three children were schooled at their parents’ old schools.

Phyllis and David left Dalwallinu in 1956, moving into dairy farming in the South West before David eventually followed a lifelong dream to learn to become a pilot.  Phyllis supported him by returning to nursing, but once David had qualified as a commercial pilot, Phyllis also changed careers and became a grower of cut flowers for the commercial market.

In later years they lived in Canning Vale, where they enjoyed watching their four grandchildren grow up and then many more step grandchildren and great grandchildren.

Phyllis Hilary Gibson (Hodgson) passed away on 24 November 2024.  She was a very strong role model and influencer all her life and remained stoic to the end, in spite of the illness which took her life at 96 years old.

On Friday 14 March the IGSSA schools met at the HBF Stadium to battle out the highly competitive swimming trials.

The St Hilda’s IGSSA swim team dominated the evening and made history with one of the extraordinary displays of athleticism. For the third consecutive year, the Saints secured each year level pennant and the overall Champion School, making it five in a row! 

Notable mentions: 

• There were 124 personal bests (PBs) posted from 136 events (including relay legs). 

• Several students selflessly swam events outside their “pet” event to strengthen our overall team position.  

Three of our coaches are alumni, demonstrating their ongoing commitment and passion for St Hilda’s beyond their school years. 

• The team set four new records: 

• Eloise Sheldrick (Year 10) - 50m Freestyle: 26.64  

This time not only set a record but would have won both the Year 11 and Year 12 races. 

• Lucy Porter (Year 12) – 50m Breaststroke: 32.93. 

• Year 9 Medley Relay – Bronte Campbell, Emma Lam, Zara Callo & Georgie Curnow: 2:07.64. 

• Year 12 Medley Relay - Piper Lloyd, Lucy Porter, Tamzyn Laverack, Maddie Bogust: 2:05.41. 

Our team was strongly led by staff Clare Hart and Kobie McGurk, with support throughout the season from: 

Jack Swainson (Lead Swim Coach), Kai Els, Lexi Smith (2021), Liberty Sheldrick (2024), Louise Barton (2024)

A huge congratulations to the team on a phenomenal season. 

International Women’s Day Lunch for Engineering Australia hosted by OS Judith Uren (1973)

Year 9 students with Judith Uren (1973) and Capt Mona Shinda and Renee Sheridan (Science Teacher

On Tuesday 4 March nine Year 9 students and a member of staff attended the International Women’s Day Engineering lunch at Optus Stadium.

The event is open to people in the engineering industry and our students were able to attend for the second year running thanks to the generosity of Old Scholar, Judith Uren (1973).  Judith was St Hilda’s first engineering student and is still working in the industry whilst also being a hands-on grandmother.

The Year 9 students were truly inspired by the keynote speaker, Captain Mona Shindy (CSC), who faced many challenges in her life. She was born in Egypt and later became the first Muslim woman to wear the uniform of a senior officer in the Australian Navy as a decorated engineer, strategic advisor and advocate for change.

With degree qualifications in Engineering, Commerce (Advanced Major in Organisation and ManagementStudies) and Arts (Masters in Politics and Policy), Mona has been a trailblazer in male dominated environments, consistently delivering outstanding organisational outcomes.

Our thanks to Judith for facilitating this inspiring event.
