Book Launch - A Very Special Trade by Cassandra Pybus
2024-06-06 18:00 - 19:30 | Horton Auditorium, 85 Penquite Road, Newstead, Tasmania, 7250
Join Petrarch’s Bookshop at Scotch Oakburn College – Penquite Campus for the launch of A Very Secret Trade by Cassandra Pybus in-conversation with Dr Nick Clements (co-author of Tongerlongeter and author of The Black War).

In the nineteenth century, collectors and museum curators in Europe were fascinated by the antipodean colony of Tasmania. But they were not just interested in animals and plants. The belief that the original people of the colony were an utterly unique race and facing possible extinction had the European scientific community scrambling for human exhibits.

Worse still, the men responsible for the care and protection of the few original people who had survived the ravages of disease and the infamous Black Wars were prominent in the trade. Cassandra Pybus has uncovered one of the darkest and most carefully hidden secrets in Australia’s colonial history. It is time we all knew the truth.

Ticket provides general admission to the talk. Book sales available at the event.

Community Education Program "Learning Life Through Sport"
2025-01-28 18:00 - 19:30 | Horton Auditorium, Penquite Campus, 85 Penquite Road, Launceston, Tasmania, 7250, Australia
Join guest speaker Rod Campbell, a former firefighter and sports coach of over 30 years’ experience, who has developed programs in Road Safety, Culture and AFL Football, based on behaviour and attitude changes.
Learning Life Through Sport is a program designed to challenge social norms and inspire young people and their communities to bring a new standard of behaviour and respect to sport and life. It identifies positive ways to alter the inherited and often unacceptable behaviour of coaches, players, parents and supporters in junior sports. These behaviours include umpire dissent and abuse (bullying), bad sportsmanship and a lack of respect for sporting codes and participants of sport.
Discussion points will include:

Culture enhancement and change
Positive game days
Teaching values through sport – sportsmanship, respect and trying your hardest
Fostering connection and goodwill
Improving resilience of young sports people

A part our Community Education Program.
Horton Auditorium, Performing Arts Centre, Penquite Campus
Everyone welcome – a free event open for the wider Launceston community
