Student Banking teaches children how to develop good saving habits at an early age and assists schools to raise extra funds for school initiatives.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;For your children&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Student Banking encourages primary school children to save their money and watch it grow. It's easy - children can open up a &lt;a href="http://www.commbank.com.au/personal/accounts/youthsaver/default.aspx"&gt;Youthsaver&lt;/a&gt; account and make regular deposits while they're at school.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Processing the deposits is quick and easy. A volunteer from the school collects the money and enters each deposit into user-friendly, internet-based Windows software which is provided by the Bank. This is balanced and electronically transmitted to the Bank.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The volunteer then makes a single deposit at the nearest Commonwealth Bank branch or Australia Post outlet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Club newsletters&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;As a regular user of their account, your child will receive exclusive club newsletters and benefits from us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.commbank.com.au/Dollarmites" target="_blank"&gt;Dollarmites Club&lt;/a&gt; for under 10s&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.commbank.com.au/Rule/" target="_blank"&gt;Rule&lt;/a&gt; for 10 to 13s&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.commbank.com.au/pi/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;for 14 to 17s&lt;br /&gt;For their school&lt;br /&gt;It's not just the students who benefit - participating schools will also receive:&lt;br /&gt;$5 for each new &lt;a href="http://www.commbank.com.au/personal/accounts/youthsaver/default.aspx"&gt;Youthsaver&lt;/a&gt; account opened&lt;br /&gt;5% commission for each deposit (up to a maximum of $10 per individual deposit)&lt;br /&gt;Minimum commission payment of $25 per quarter (provided at least one deposit is processed in the quarter)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;School visits&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Commonwealth Bank branch staff visit nearby primary schools to talk to children about the basics of money and teach them the importance of regular saving. They also discuss Student Banking with principals and volunteer coordinators and how they can implement and improve the program at their school.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To register your school, simply call the Student Banking Helpdesk on 1800 674 496, from 9am to 4pm (Sydney time), Monday to Friday. You will be mailed the relevant forms and information to get you started. The Helpdesk can also answer any questions you may have about Student Banking.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;http://api.edna.edu.au/recent.rss?category=0&amp;from=4WEEK&amp;items=10&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.education.net.au/blog/2008/08/banking-at-school.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (National Education Directory of Australia)</author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22231385.post-5335709303545332588</guid><pubDate>Thu, 14 Aug 2008 03:21:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-08-14T13:26:27.823+10:00</atom:updated><title>EDUCATION SAVINGS PLAN</title><description>An &lt;strong&gt;Education Savings Plan&lt;/strong&gt; is a purpose-built savings and investment solution for your child's education.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An Education Savings Plan lets you prepare now for the costs of your child's education. And since a quality education paves the way for your child's future, it's one of the greatest gifts you can give them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A purpose-built solution&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Education Savings Plan has been specifically developed to help fund children's education.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It can be used to build a financial nest egg to help pay for a lifetime of education, including:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;primary&lt;/strong&gt; (including &lt;strong&gt;pre-school)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;secondary&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;many&lt;strong&gt; tertiary&lt;/strong&gt; courses (including TAFE), as well as special needs education in both Australia and overseas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Unique tax savings&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;The Education Savings Plan offers a valuable combination of ease of use and flexibility, with professional investment management.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Operating as a 'scholarship plan' under tax laws, the Plan may offer certain tax advantages not generally available with other savings and investment products.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyone can contribute - parents, grandparents, uncles, aunts, godparents can start a Plan: in fact, basically any person who wishes to contribute towards the education expenses of someone they care for.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The surprising costs of raising children&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While one can't put a price on the joy of having children, the costs of raising them can be sobering for any parent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even economists struggle to determine the figures, but the Australian Institute of Family Studies has estimated that your average 10 year old costs $190 a week.* And that's before additional expenses such as holidays, new furnishings or a private education - or even a music lesson. Teenagers, of course, are even more expensive.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When you consider the years children live at home, the expenses of each child can easily amount to a quarter of a million dollars - and this excludes education costs!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A better future for your child starts here&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Given the cost of quality education, delaying thinking about how you'll afford it until you need to face it, could result in your children's education being less than what you wish.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An Education Savings Plan helps you to plan for a child's education expenses with confidence and peace of mind, knowing you are prepared.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's not just sensible and practical. It's also the gift of a lifetime.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Learn more about &lt;a class="linktext" tabindex="120" href="http://www.educationsavings.webcentral.com.au/benefits/benefits.asp" target="_self"&gt;the benefits of an Education Savings Plan&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;http://api.edna.edu.au/recent.rss?category=0&amp;from=4WEEK&amp;items=10&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.education.net.au/blog/2008/08/education-savings-plan.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (National Education Directory of Australia)</author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>1</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22231385.post-5278804307088817467</guid><pubDate>Wed, 23 Jan 2008 00:13:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-09-01T15:58:52.312+10:00</atom:updated><title>NEDA TV ADVERTISING CAMPAIGN 2008</title><description>&lt;a href="http://www.education.net.au/blog/uploaded_images/pink-783791.JPG"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.education.net.au/blog/uploaded_images/blue-756278.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="WIDTH: 436px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 17px" height="27" alt="" src="http://www.education.net.au/blog/uploaded_images/blue-756277.JPG" width="375" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff0000;"&gt;NEDA Internet and Television Advertising Campaigns.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.education.net.au/blog/uploaded_images/blue-751403.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="WIDTH: 436px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 17px" height="17" alt="" src="http://www.education.net.au/blog/uploaded_images/blue-751399.JPG" width="375" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.education.net.au/blog/uploaded_images/pink-798635.JPG"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The National Education Directory of Australia (NEDA) in partnership with Mediawiz Advertising and Productions is now able to offer our valued clients the combined promotional power of the internet and broadcast television mediums.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One of the unique features of the NEDA internet and television campaigns will be that every one of our clients that participates will have the opportunity to individually promote their school or training facility.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The television commercial will highlight your educational institution and encourage the viewer to find out further information through the NEDA website directory.

But because of a "grandfather clause" that protected wealthier schools from losing out if the formula was fully applied, many better-off schools have been able to maintain their funding at a far higher level.&lt;br /&gt;These schools were funded at more than their formula levels over the four years at a cost to the Commonwealth education budget of $2.071 billion, the Greens say.&lt;br /&gt;The Catholic school system has its funding maintained at a level equivalent to 58 per cent of the cost of educating a child in the public system. It is seeking to increase that to at least 60 per cent, according to the Catholic Education Commission's executive director, Brian Croke.&lt;br /&gt;The Federal Government is reviewing its funding formula, which on current estimates will deliver about $27.6 billion to private schools during the next four-year cycle, from 2009 to 2012.&lt;br /&gt;The Government will spend a total of $40 billion on public and private schools over the four years and is privately consulting the main stakeholders.&lt;br /&gt;Greens education spokesman John Kaye, an engineering academic with a background in financial modelling, said the figures challenged the Federal Government's approach to private school funding. "The Howard Government cannot have it both ways. Either they genuinely believe in their SES system or they don't."&lt;br /&gt;The executive director of the Association of Independent Schools of NSW, Geoff Newcombe, said the non-government schools received what they were entitled to according to levels legislated by the Federal Parliament.&lt;br /&gt;Dr Croke said the criticism from the Greens represented a failure to understand how the formula works.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;Story Courtesy The Age &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.theage.com.au"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;www.theage.com.au&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;http://api.edna.edu.au/recent.rss?category=0&amp;from=4WEEK&amp;items=10&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.education.net.au/blog/2006/11/private-schools-in-2bn-windfall.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (National Education Directory of Australia)</author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22231385.post-115880505751113944</guid><pubDate>Thu, 21 Sep 2006 01:18:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-09-23T22:13:18.939+10:00</atom:updated><title>MATHSPOWER SIGN ON</title><description>&lt;a href="http://www.education.net.au/blog/uploaded_images/MP_LOGO_Clear-707827.gif"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://www.education.net.au/blog/uploaded_images/MP_LOGO_Clear-798249.gif" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.education.net.au/blog/uploaded_images/MathsPOWERIsabelleTile_16.08.06-762815.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://www.education.net.au/blog/uploaded_images/MathsPOWERIsabelleTile_16.08.06-739583.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.education.net.au/blog/uploaded_images/MP_LOGO_Clear-707827.gif"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.education.net.au/blog/uploaded_images/BTTF_LOGO_Clear-718983.gif"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are pleased to announce that &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;MathsPOWER,&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt; Australia's foremost mathematics tutoring software company has shown its confidence and trust in The National Education Directory of Australia Pty Ltd by signing on as a major banner sponsor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Welcome aboard Anthony and Felicity and all the staff from &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;MathsPOWER&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mathspower have now been a sponsor with us for the years - &lt;strong&gt;2006, 2007 &amp;amp; 2008.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What people have to say about &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;MathsPOWER &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Father Chris Riley&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;, from &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Youth Off The Streets&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;"I strongly support and endorse the &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;MathsPOWER&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt; program because I have used it on the kids in my care and I can see the difference it makes."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Dr. Brendan Nelson&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Former Federal Minister for Education&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"I strongly support what &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;MathsPOWER&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt; is trying to achieve for our young people... because what really counts first and foremost is young people.

The page rank tool can be found on the Google Toolbar, if the rank is zero, that is a sure indication that the site has not been around for very long.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;3.&lt;/span&gt; Always check their listing in the Whitepages, no listing usually means a scam operator&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;4.&lt;/span&gt; Check their Search Engine results, if they are not found in the major Search Engines, ie Google, MSN or Yahoo, be very careful again this usually means its a new site.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;5.&lt;/span&gt; Never give Credit Card details unless you have seen the finished product, and have recieved an invoice for services supplied, that can be checked and verified.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are many people who run their businesses on deception, not on product or reputation, if you feel you have been contacted by someone who fits the above criteria, please contact the Dept of Fair Trading in your state. It will benefit us all to eradicate these people from our industry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just recently(29/6/06) the director of SCHOOLSEEK.COM.AU PTY LTD, Mr Craig West, was banned from being the director of a company for 4 years by ASIC, due to failed companies owing in excess of 3 million dollars. ASIC made these comments;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;In determining an appropriate banning period for Mr West, ASIC expressed concern over his apparent lack of commercial morality and appreciation for the considerable duties and obligations of a company director.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;See full article here:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.asic.gov.au/asic/asic_pub.nsf/byheadline/06-212+ASIC+bans+NSW+directors?openDocument"&gt;http://www.asic.gov.au/asic/asic_pub.nsf/byheadline/06-212+ASIC+bans+NSW+directors?openDocument&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Remember freedom to advertise with whomever you want is your perogative, but choose carefully, pick a trusted supplier and get the results you are paying for.

just below interactive games which will experience a growth explosion to be worth $1.25 billion, the report said.&lt;br /&gt;Still, a delay in the introduction of digital broadcast radio until December 2009, and the high expense involved in adopting it, means radio will experience problems from alternative audio mediums, the report said.&lt;br /&gt;On the regulatory front, Mr Liebmann said PWC did not expect the federal government's proposed changes to cross media ownership laws to spark much buying activity between traditional media companies.&lt;br /&gt;"There really are no bargains out there at the moment," Mr Liebmann said.&lt;br /&gt;He added that traditional media companies had recently been buying new media companies for their genuine revenue raising potential - not because they had few other options.&lt;br /&gt;According to PWC the entire media and entertainment industry will grow seven per cent a year to $29.5 billion by 2010.&lt;br /&gt;©AAP 2006&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;http://api.edna.edu.au/recent.rss?category=0&amp;from=4WEEK&amp;items=10&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.education.net.au/blog/2006/08/internet-advertising-to-surge.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (National Education Directory of Australia)</author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22231385.post-115388369855101714</guid><pubDate>Wed, 26 Jul 2006 03:04:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2006-07-26T16:57:40.306+10:00</atom:updated><title>N.E.D.A.
