Student Achievement
I wish to congratulate each of the year 7 volleyball teams for their success at the Diamond Valley Sports Group competition last Wednesday. Six teams entered the competition and both boys and girls teams finished 1st, 2nd and 3rd out of the six team competition. The teams will now represent our school at the Northern Zone Volleyball Final on Tuesday, 8 November.
Congratulations to Kyal Baart (Year 8 Stewart) and Daniel Seymour (Year 11 Everard) who came first in the junior and senior Northern Region Golf Final respectively at Growling Frog on 3 March, 2011. This is an outstanding result and we look forward to future successes in this sport.
I also congratulate Kyle Burns (Year 7 Everard) and Warwick Purchase (Year 7 Stewart) for having been selected in a Kangaroo Development Baseball Squad in a series of matches that will include six Australian teams and four Japanese teams. We will follow Kyle and Warwick’s success with interest.
Congratulations to the Eltham High School debating teams who competed last night, Monday 28 March, in the Debating Association of Victoria’s Interschool Debating which was held at Loyola College. Our ‘A’ Grade team debated the question of whether “we should ban Scientology”. Sarah Klink (Year 11 Rutter), Peter Shackleton (Year 12 Andrew) and Scout Rodrigo (Year 12 Rutter) were excitingly articulate but missed by one point to Marymede Catholic College. Our ‘B’ Grade team debated whether “we should prohibit building homes in areas prone to natural disasters”. Joely Mitchell (Year 11 Everard), Aidan Pugielli (Year 12 Andrew), and Nathan Kerwood (Year 9 Andrew) won against Loyola College, with Nathan scoring best speaker. Our ‘D’ Grade team competed against St Monica’s college, debating the issue of whether “we should ban violent video games”. New Year 7 students, Michaela Prunotto (Year 7 Everard) and Carly Notting (Year 7 Everard) debated for the first time with Maddie Charisis (Year 9 Andrew), and although not winning, made a wonderful impression with powerful anecdotes and a confident delivery.
Congratulations to all our debating students. I also congratulate and thank Leanne Ipsen, Debating Co‑ordinator, for her all her hard work, guidance and encouragement of our students in their endeavours.
Year 7, 2012 Information Night/ Open Morning
A reminder to all members of our community that the Information Night and Open Morning for prospective Year 7 students and their families for 2012 will take place on Thursday evening, 31 March at 7:30pm and Friday morning, 1 April between 9:30am and 12:00noon respectively. Due to the current building works the Information Evening will take place at the 360 Centre, 360 Main Road, Lower Plenty (parking is available on site). The Open Morning presentation will occur in the School Library. Student led tours will move from the Library throughout the morning. I ask that you communicate these details to friends and family who may not yet have access to this newsletter.
Building Futures
You will recall from my communication to you over the last 18 months or so that the budgeted figure for our Building Futures Project was set at $9 million in the 2009 State Budget by the previous State Government. The design of the project provides a number of new teaching and learning spaces, a flexible performance space, a dance/drama facility, a new canteen, a VCE study lounge, a new administration area, a number of staff offices and work areas, as well as the refurbishment of the 1926 building. The costs of the project were estimated during the period of the ‘Building the Education Revolution – Economic Stimulus Projects’ and it was considered that the project would cost beyond the allocated budget figure. As a result of this estimate, the school was forced by the Department of Education and Early Childhood Development to suspend a number of works prior to allowing the project to proceed to the design and development phase and then to tender. The school was given no option but to reluctantly agree to this suspension of a number of identified works. It was always understood that if the project costs came in under budget after the tender process then the suspended works would be reactivated. The tender process showed that the initial estimated costs were actually inflated by a considerable amount. However, we now find ourselves in a position where the new government does not support the reinstatement of the suspended works and instead wants to withhold funds which were promised to this community for the completion of the project to a satisfactory level. The suspended works include substantial “hard” landscaping; the development of locker pavilions; acoustic works in the performance space; development of new parking spaces, to name a few.
The School Council has written to the new Minister of Education, the Hon. Martin Dixon, MP. A copy of this letter, including both the Minister’s postal address and our local State Member’s (Steve Herbert) address can be found on the Eltham High School website. I ask that you support our efforts insisting the new Government to honour the commitment made to this school and the local community by using the content of the School Council letter to write to Minister Dixon and Steve Herbert expressing your discontent with this situation and insisting that this community be given the announced figure of $9 million to successfully complete the building futures project.
Now is the time to act, and I urge you not to remain silent! This is for the benefit of our children and the community.
Cyber-Safety Survey
The Australian Parliament’s Joint Select Committee on Cyber-Safety is currently inquiring into the nature, prevalence and implications of cyber-safety and cyber-bullying.
The Committee has set up an online survey and it encourages all students to participate. The Committee believes the input of young people is critical in its inquiry and will be invaluable in making reasoned conclusions and viable recommendations to government. The survey is available at www.aph.gov.au/cybersafety. In its final report, the Committee will present recommendations to the Government to promote cyber safety and reduce cyber-bullying in the Australian community. More information about the Committee is available at http://www.aph.gov.au/house/committee/iscc/index.htm
I encourage parents to discuss this with their children and I ask that you provide them with the necessary support to engage with the survey. This is the first Federal initiative of its kind and one that may set a positive direction in support of our young people.
School Working Bee
I congratulate all the volunteers who attended the second working bee of the year. A great deal of work was carried out as well as starting the planning of the work for the next working bee. The development of the front oval courtyard is well on the way with the construction of steps from the top level to the oval, the concrete pavement area and the start of the building of the planter boxes and seats. I commend the work of the Grounds Committee for its vision and for the fruits of its labour. I also congratulate John Coates for his organisation and planning for the day. In particular I wish to mention the commitment of the various students who joined their parents and a number of staff on the day. A job well done by all.
Vincent Sicari, Principal
Bruce Martyn – Project Manager
The Grounds Committee held the second Working Bee for the year on Sunday 27th March. The 50 volunteers worked enthusiastically on a number of tasks in almost perfect working conditions. Significant headway was made on the new landscape project adjacent to the cricket nets and we look forward to improving this area as we progress through 2011. The gardens on the eastern side of the school were also given a significant prune and cleanup and the environment looks a lot more loved for the experience. Thanks go to all our volunteers who arrived on time and took on the tasks that were planned for the day. A particular acknowledgement must also go out to the Grounds Committee members who take on leadership roles for the day so that the planned tasks run as smoothly as they possibly can. Grounds Committee members also provision, prepare and cleanup after morning tea and the barbeque lunch. Thanks again.
The following is a summary of the tasks that were completed on the day.
1. Vertical uprights were set up and concreted into position for the construction of the retaining walls seats planned for our next Working Bee
2. A 10 metre section of retaining wall was repaired adjacent to the tennis courts
3. A significant amount of pruning and weeding was completed on the garden beds adjacent to the admin block, 600’s wing, 700’s wing and the courtyard garden complexes
4. A 10 metre section of post and pipe fence was extended along the roadway adjacent to the 600’s wing
5. A significant amount of sweeping was completed in the courtyard precincts
6. Fifteen new plants were provided with a home on the south side of 904. They were also staked and bagged
7. Half of the callistomen hedge was removed on the north side of the 700’s block in preparation for some further paving in that area
8. A significant amount of mowing and brushcutting was completed in a variety of areas around the campus.
Again a very successful community event with parents, students and teachers coming together to make Eltham High School a more environmentally friendly place for all those who work in this institution. Thanks again for all our volunteer brigade who put aside their Sunday morning to make this event the success it was.

At all times students are under the direct supervision of an adult supervisor. All Collectors will return to school by 1.30pm.
You will be provided with drinks/a snack/ Easter eggs/hot cross buns throughout the morning and on your return to school.

Parents wishing to assist with the collection are requested to notify me of their intention on 94305111 or by email at cho@elthamhs.vic.edu.au
