Principal’s Report

Student Achievement:

VCE Season of Excellence 2013:

Top Class Music Recitals:

Congratulations to Madeleine Dawson (Class of 2012, Everard House) who on Saturday 23 February represented our school in the Top Class Music 2013 Recital, playing Trumpet. Maddy was chosen for her outstanding talent and skill in the Music Performance subject which she undertook as part of her Year 12 studies. Top class presents outstanding VCE students from 2012 in Dance, VET Dance, Drama, Theatre Studies, Music Performance, Music Investigation and Music Styles and Composition. Top Class is managed by the Victorian Curriculum and Assessment Authority. This opportunity adds to Maddy’s position as a high achiever in all areas of the curriculum and her commitment to the co-curricular program at Eltham High School has been outstanding. I congratulate Maddy and wish her all the very best as she commences her studies at the Victorian College of the Arts.

Top Design:

I congratulate Zoe Kaskamanidis (Class of 2012, Everard House) whose Unit 4 Folio for Visual Communication and Design has been selected for this year’s Top Design Exhibition which will be officially opened on Friday 15 March at the Melbourne Museum. Zoe’s talent was evident through the work that she exhibited in the Eltham High School Art Festival in 2012 and it is no surprise that she has been recognised through the VCE Season of Excellence. The Top Design Exhibition will showcase works created by a number of exceptional VCE students who completed VCE Media, Product Design and Technology, Food and Technology, Systems Engineering, Visual Communication and Design and VCE- VET Interactive Digital Media. Exhibits include: garments, graphic and product design, short films, interactive media, print layout, photography, food product planning, mechanical and electronic projects. Works are accompanied by folios and design plans comprising work briefs, client feedback and evaluation. The exhibition will be open to the public from Saturday 16 March to Sunday 30 June. I strongly encourage you all to view this fantastic exhibition. I wish Zoe all the very best as she embarks on her Arts studies at The University of Melbourne in 2013.

2013 Swimming Carnival:

The 2013 Eltham High School Swimming Carnival was a great success. The weather was perfect and all in attendance had a great time. I want to thank all the students that contributed to making this yet another successful event and in particular, the senior student leadership team that worked tirelessly throughout the day to ensure that the day proceeded as planned. I also thank all the staff particularly, Lucy Bowman and Nic Cooper (Sports Co-ordinators); Cathy Cukier (Daily Organiser) and Darren Squires (Assistant Principal).  Without their hard work and planning the day would not have been the success it was. A great deal of fun was had by all!

Creative Minds Exhibition:

Nillumbik’s top VCE Art students will be exhibiting some of their work at the Eltham Community Library between Thursday 14 March and Monday 8 April. The exhibition will be officially opened on Saturday 16 March by Nillumbik Shire Deputy Mayor, Cr Helen Coleman (former parent of Eltham High School). The exhibition will feature works of students from Eltham High School, Eltham College, Catholic Ladies College and Plenty Valley Christian College. The Eltham High School Principal’s Acquisition Prize, 2012 (Lochlan McKechnie, Andrew House) and the Wes Muir Acquisition Prize, 2012 (Zoe Kaskamanidis, Everard House) will be on show. I invite all members of the Eltham Community to view the exhibition and I congratulate all the students whose work will be on show.

Eltham Jazz Festival:

I congratulate all the students that performed at the Eltham Jazz Festival on Saturday, 23 February as well as their conductor Mr Rick Plummer. The Festival is an annual event for the local community and each year it provided us with the opportunity to showcase the fantastic talent of our students through performance. Feedback from the community has been very positive and it was great to see a number of past students and families come along and enjoy the music and general ambience of the day. I thank the organisers and the Eltham High School Music Department for once again taking our school out into the community.

2013-2014 Premier’s Spirit of ANZAC Prize – Call for Entries:

Applications for the 2013-2014 Premier’s Spirit of ANZAC Prize are now open. The Prize is open to students in Year 9 and Year 10 and I invite all of our Middle School students to consider this opportunity and embrace the challenge. The Prize inspires young people to explore the ethos displayed by the ANZACs at Gallipoli and the Western Front and reflect on how those values apply in Victorian communities today. State finalists will have the opportunity to travel on an all-expenses paid overseas study tour to sites of military and cultural significance to Australian servicemen and women. The study tour will take place during the Term 1 school holidays in 2014. In addition, regional finalists will participate in a study tour within Australia.

Entry forms and further information can be obtained from www.veterans.vic.gov.au.

The competition closes on Friday 18 October 2013 and the lodgement of entries is encouraged throughout the year.

Teachers Industrial Campaign:

There has been no further progress on negotiations to date.  Therefore the information conveyed in the last edition of the Community Newsletter remains current.

Eltham Senior Cricket Win Again

Congratulations to the senior boys cricket team on their victories in the 12/12 format games on March 1.

Playing University in the first game we had to chase 95 for victory. Hayden Spargo opened with Bill Jenkin and we got off to a great start until Hayden was out for a quick fire 17. Aiden Amenta knocked up 17 and Ciaran Porter 14 before Bill Jerkin hit a six off the second last ball to seal the win.

In the second game against Gladstone Park we dismissed them for 39 with wickets to Rouw, Marshall, Turner, Matt Amenta and Lester 3 for 3. In an easy run chase Porter made 23 and Mitch Clamp 17.

The boys are now one win away from the State finals with the Northern Zone final on 20 March.

Immunisation

Please return immunisation forms to the General Office as soon as possible.

Changes to the Secondary School Immunisation Program

The Department of Health immunisation website has a new fact sheet titled Immunisation information for parents of school-aged children available at: http://www.health.vic.gov.au/immunisation/factsheets/immunisation-school-aged-children.htm

From 2013, the HPV program will include both boys and girls in Year 7.  Additionally, a time-limited catch-up program will be provided to Year 9 boys only in 2013 and 2014. 

From 2013, the course of hepatitis B vaccine will no longer be offered as a school-based program. Most children entering Year 7 in 2013 will have had    the course of hepatitis B vaccine as an infant. The hepatitis B vaccine will be available in 2013 from local medical clinics or council immunisation services only to students who have not previously received the course of vaccine

The other vaccines administered through the school-based immunisation program (chicken pox in Year 7 and diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis in Year 10) will remain unchanged.

Information regarding the Y9 2013 Male students only and Year 7 & 10 2013 Secondary School Immunisation Program will be sent home shortly with 2013 booklists.

Have You Received The Schoolkids Bonus?

Do you know about the Schoolkids Bonus?  It is a new cash payment to help eligible families and students with the costs of primary and secondary school studies. Around 1.2 million families have already benefitted from the first wave of payments in January 2013 – have you?

If you receive a family or income support payment, including Family Tax Benefit Part A, you could be eligible to receive $410 a year for each primary student and $820 a year for each secondary student, with half paid in January and half paid in July.

The Schoolkids Bonus replaces the Education Tax Refund (ETR) and is a much simpler system. You no longer need to collect receipts and payments are made automatically so you don’t have to wait months to make a claim via your tax return.  Unlike the ETR you can choose how you use the payment to best support your children’s education – whether it be school books, stationery, uniforms, school fees, or excursions.

Check your eligibility by visiting australia.gov.au/schoolkidsbonus and if you think you might have missed out on the January payment, contact Centrelink – either in person at a Centrelink-Medicare Office or by calling 132 468.
