The ANCOM ON MURRAY Inc. community administration manages a diverse range of Aerie SACE-VET Campuses. The Community owns some and some are hosted under a shared-use lease with supportive community clubs, care services homes or in National Parks. All our Registered Community Education programs are offered and funded under a Special Assistance school registration program and other available grants funding.
We welcome donations to our programs.
Our mission is to help young people who have given up dreaming, probably not their fault, to take another look and find a different flight path towards their improbable dreams.
This is what Andy Thomas saw at age 18 that sparked his dream. He flew much higher than eagles.

"A young person can always carry an ICAN backpack even if they are unhappy at home, have left home, unhappy at school, in severe depression, rely on walking sticks or a wheelchair or have given up. An ICAN backpack has no weight. It carries their dreams. It can straighten their back and their inner strength"
Regardless of the reason, Aerie College can help them fill their ICAN backpack, live happily, safely and well, and reactivate their dream.
We have a full range of support, including safe residence, to complete "SACE" and then VET certificates. Aerie College is a little like a continuous school camp, on "Imagination", at our Adelaide Regency House campus, or one of our wilderness campuses.
The ANCOM community with its Aerie College is always a home place to come to if things go wrong with their dream, a safe warm place to sleep, food and friendly people.

Walt Disney said that. He made dreams.
All young people dream, and so they should.
Some young people see their dreams as impossible, destroyed or mentally crushed.
Their will or spirit is broken and they are down.
They need to mend and shake their feathers.

Your Aerie College time starts on "Imagination"
You can Imagine your adventures and dreams with us.
Our 10-week orientation program starts with team-building skills to get their wings ready to fly with us in confident partnerships and teams.
Your entry to our Aerie College learning and living style is on Imagination Cruise boat under the supervision of a Boat Master, sharing all the housekeeping, fun & group living skills that a large family must develop. Most of the Aerie teaching staff will visit Imagination to help prepare them for their new flight path with Aerie College. We develop buddy pairs and teams for all our living & learning tasks. There are many skills to be learned about holding partners and teams together. You must show us you have eagle potential.
At the end of the 10 weeks, we will consider your Graduation to Eagle Team membership. On graduation, you will have the right to wear the team uniform as your feathers and you are expected to stay with us. You will grow to be a fully-fledged eagles and we will help you fly through the SACE and on into VET, Perhaps with a Diploma.
Our living & Learning community environment is better than the old-style industrial-age classroom where COVID and other unhealthy problems lurk. Modern learning styles and essential tracking documents necessary for qualifications will just happen everywhere in our planned programs, mostly in wide open spaces, all from within the SACE and National VET Curriculum.
Then enter a 5-year Aerie College SACE to VET Diploma
When you fledge (graduate from our 10-week introduction to Aerie), your can show your feathers (uniform) with pride. You are then part of our great young eagle team.
Complete SACE with us in many ways. There is no time limit to finish it. Your effort has the greatest value. We all want to live well. It is the way we work and live that creates wellness. We will help you get your SACE, find a job or create one and live well.

We know how to get you there. You just have to keep saying I will do it, just like "The Little Engine that Could". There are no time limits or money restrictions with Aerie so long as you work hard and are not wasteful of time or money.
Capt. Bouc's advice for young people. Aged wisdom.
Life is a voyage through time. Solo sailing is not recommended. You need a good mate to help you through safely.
Friends and partners were not part of my early schooling. I was a loner. School told me I had to do my own work. I found some school things impossible. The word "Cheating" was used often. I had to pass "Exams".
I was not permitted to share my problem. Much later I learned good friends could help me do the things I found difficult and we all had a good time, -and so did my students.
- People come and go in your life. The one or two very close friendships you make in your maturing years (16 to 24) will be there for you forever. Keep in touch with close friends. Care for them. They are good sounding boards and support in tough times.
- It is not easy to build your dream unless you convince others they also believe. Talk about your dreams with your close friends.
- Without risk, there can be no success. Do risk analysis together on your partnership plan first, then go hard with the positive. Analyse results, change the plan if necessary and go hard again. Dreams always need hard work.
- The universe requires us to create children. Buy all means try safely for some time before you buy, plenty of time, part of learning. Think 24yrs or older before your brains are ready for making and growing children. Your bodies are ready much earlier be safe.
- Make sure the friend you make children with will be your very best reliable friend for a long time, who will stay with you in your shared dream. Do not lead. Do not follow. Walk together. Be gentle with each other.
- Do not run your life on Me, Me, Me. - - - We, We, We is by far the best fuel.
- You can start making a child in a few minutes. It is growing the child well that takes the time, care and togetherness in adventures. This needs about 25 years of your life.
- Hold your child-making partner tight. It is not worth letting go. Negotiate. Compromise, agree to a plan, revise it together regularly, stick to it, be happy with it, or revise it again. We teach these skills at Aerie College. Life was never meant to be easy.
- If you let the family partnership break, all is lost for both partners AND an even great disaster for your young children.
- Be like eagles—mates for life. Your eaglet children will fledge. Watch them live their life. Like good friends, keep in touch with them. Do not dictate. You are no longer in the parent/child relationship. You might need their help one day. Age may make you the child and them the parents.
