Welcome To Canterbury Mr Warwick Adeney! | Queensland Symphony Orchestra's Former 20+ Year Concertmaster 🎻

https://youtu.be/Spw7jiHgYxk

After more than two decades as the Queensland Symphony Orchestra's (QSO) Concertmaster, Mr Warwick Adeney has joined Canterbury College as a Studio Music Teacher.

Earlier this year, Warwick led and performed in his final concert - Ode To Joy - at QSO's first Maestro Concert of the 2023 Season.

Born into a large family of violinists, he trained alongside three of his siblings at the Queensland Conservatorium, where he learnt under Dr Anthony Doheny.

Mr Adeney has been playing in orchestras since 1984, shortly after graduating as a Gold Medal graduate.

After graduation, Warwick joined the Queensland Theatre Orchestra under Georg Tintner and gained his prestigious Concertmaster status in 1989.

Warwick is married to Michele, a fellow musician, and is blessed with nine children, all of whom learn a variety of instruments.

Please enjoy our video showing Warwick in action, and learn about what he looks forward to contributing to Canterbury's Music Program.

The Queensland Symphony Orchestra has also released this tribute video of Warwick playing The Lark Ascending by Ralph Vaughan Williams - which captures the essence of what he has brought to the QSO over his many years with the company.

Introducing Canterbury College's NEW Chaplain: Father Dan Talbot

Introducing Canterbury College's NEW Chaplain: Father Dan Talbot

Dear Canterbury Community,

I am pleased to announce that Father Dan Talbot has been appointed as our new full-time College Chaplain.

He will commence at Canterbury on Monday 3 July 2023.

Father Dan is currently the Rector of the Jimboomba Anglican Church, where he has served since 2007.

He is also the Area Dean of the Logan area, a position he will continue to hold as Canterbury’s new Chaplain.

Father Dan holds a Bachelor of Business, Graduate Diploma in Theology, Master of Arts in Theology and a Certificate in Clinical Pastoral Education.

He is also a Level 2 Sports Trainer, accredited with the NRL.

Father Dan has served as the Deputy Chair of the St Hilda’s School Board since 2011 and previously as a part-time Chaplain for the Logan Police District.

He has also been a part-time Pastor at Emmaus College in Jimboomba since 2007.

It is certainly the case that Father Dan is no stranger to us here at Canterbury; as he has presided over various chapel services for us over the past few years.

His authenticity, integrity and genuine connection to our area will be wonderful assets as he steps into this important role.

He is excited to play a role in our Religious and Values Education (RaVE) Program and being a voice of inclusion - connecting students of all faith perspectives together, into a reflective community based on our shared values.

I am pleased to share that Father Dan’s appointment was approved with enthusiasm by the Right Rev. John Roundhill, Bishop of the Southern Region, and by the Right Rev. Cam Venables, Bishop Administrator.

Having come to know Father Dan very well over the past four years, I feel very blessed that he sees his next calling to be part of our Canterbury Community.

Father Dan will continue to serve his parish and take some long service leave before commencing with us on Monday 3 July.

However, I’m sure we will see him ‘cameo’ at Canterbury between now and then.

We also sincerely thank Reverend Melusi Sibanda for his time and wonderfully warm presence here at Canterbury College, and we wish him all the best!

Regards,

Mr Dan Walker
College Principal


Years 11 & 12 Visual Art Excursion | Gallery of Modern Art (GoMA) & Queensland Art Gallery (QAG)

Years 11 & 12 Visual Art Excursion | Gallery of Modern Art (GoMA) & Queensland Art Gallery (QAG)

Our Years 11 and 12 Visual Art students visited the Gallery of Modern Art (GoMA) and Queensland Art Gallery (QAG) over at Southbank last Thursday.

They viewed the Air exhibition at GoMA, as well as the general collection and Looking Out, Looking In exhibitions at the QAG.

These exhibitions offered an exciting mix of contemporary and older artworks, from both Australia and overseas, and were very inspirational to our students.

The excursion timing was perfect as they prepare to produce their own artworks and give theoretical appraisals of the works produced by other artists.

It was a valuable experience for our budding artists, and connects directly with their explorations as 'artist and audience' for their units Art As Lens and Art As Knowledge.

More information on the exhibitions that our students visited can be found on the GoMA Website HERE.

More photos from the excursion can be found shortly on our Facebook Page HERE.
