Principal’s Report                  

School Funding Reform

A further reminder about the importance of the State Government signing up for the Federal Government’s funding reform.  In last week’s Newsletter I outlined what this will mean for our school and once again I urge you to take action now.

Tell Minister Dixon and Premier Napthine to stop playing politics with our kids' futures and sign up to Gonski so that much needed funds can be delivered to Victorian schools. 

By taking five minutes to make these calls, you can help ensure a fairer funding model for the young people in our school and for our public education system.

Tell the Government what you know: that extra funds would mean more individual attention, more resources and more support for the kids who need it most.  

·         Call Premier Napthine on 03 9651 5000 

·         Call Education Minister Martin Dixon on 03 9637 3196  

·         Call your local MP - click here for a phone list

Here's a link to some tips to help you make the call. Please support this very important agenda.

Student Achievement

Recognition of Excellence – Australian Girls’ Choir (AGC):

Congratulations to Maddie (P) Nelson (Year 9A, Everard House) and Aisha Samat (Year 8, Andrew House) for having been awarded an Outstanding Potential Award for 2013 in their age bracket by the Australian Girls’ Choir during their Annual Winter Showcase, held at Monash University last weekend. Choristers are nominated in each level by their tutors to audition for an Outstanding Potential Award.  One chorister in each level is then chosen by a panel of judges. This is a most prestigious award within the choir.  This is an exceptional achievement for both girls who have been members of the AGC for a number of years and it is great to know that two Eltham High School students were recognised together for all round vocal performance talent. 

Furthermore, Maddie has once again been selected, through audition, to represent the AGC on their upcoming National Tour throughout Queensland and New South Wales, to be held over the school holidays and the first week of Term 3.  There is also the chance that we will see Maddie on TV this coming weekend, as she has been selected as part of the "Qantas Choir" entertainment for the British Lions v Wallabies game.

Student Leaders’ Forum:

Five of our Senior School Leaders: Alex Domaille (Year 12, Rutter House), Mitchell Green (Year 12, Stewart House), Amelia French (Year 12, Andrew House), Shirin Nurmohamed (Year 12, Rutter House) and Jesse Ishai (Year 12, Stewart House) took part in the Steve Herbert Student Leaders’ Forum.  The forum provided an opportunity for young people across a number of schools in Steve’s electorate to express their views and ideas about issues of relevance to them. Steve has made the commitment to progress the ideas and concerns raised by students with the relevant level of government and provide feedback on the response.  The students discussed a number of ideas and concerns together and our students returned to school feeling positive about the experience. I would like to thank Mr Steve Herbert for making the time to listen to the voice of the young people in his electorate and I congratulate our young ambassadors.

CLASAX Competitions:

Congratulations to all the students that participated in the CLASAX (Clarinet and Saxophone) Competitions, the results of which appear in a further section of this Newsletter. Once again our students have presented outstanding performances and in such have been recognised for their high level of skill and talent. I particularly congratulate Alessandra Prunotto (Year 11, Everard House) who was awarded a first place in the 16 and Under section of the competition and the Intermediate Small Ensemble members: Harry Petrou (Year 9, Rutter House), Ben Evans (Year 8, Andrew House) Jes Broeren (Year 8, Everard House), Liam Samat (Year 9, Andrew House), for also having been awarded a first place. In congratulating the students I also take the opportunity to congratulate their tutors and Ensemble Conductors for their work and for their continued support of our students.

Victorian State Schools’ Spectacular:

Congratulations to Jessica Mullin (Year 7, Stewart House) who has been selected to be part of the choir for The Victorian State Schools Spectacular which will be presented in two performances at Hisense Arena on Saturday, 27 July. There will be over 3000 Victorian Government school students showcased within this year's production in the performance disciplines of music, song, dance and circus arts. Jessica is a commendable ambassador for our school and we all wish her and all the other students well.

If you would like any further information on the Victorian State Schools Spectacular please telephone 9415 1700 or email:   performing.arts@edumail.vic.gov.au

Retirement Function

We will be celebrating the careers in Government Secondary School Education of Mr Brendan Monigatti, Mrs Marian Stoney and Mr Raymond Chan at a retirement function being held this coming Thursday afternoon at the school. Whilst Mr Chan only joined our learning community recently he has made a positive contribution to the education of the young people at Eltham High School and more widely in Government Schools. Ms Stoney has been a remarkable educator who has worked both in and on the system. Ms Stoney is one of the key founders of the state-wide Interactive Multimedia Course and is currently the Chief Examiner of the study. Students have benefited greatly from her expertise and talent in the areas of Arts and Design as well as Mathematics. Mr Monigatti has held various roles in the school from classroom teacher to Year Level Coordinator to Student Welfare Coordinator.  An excellent teacher in his own right, he has touched the lives of many students and families that have come through our school through his vary caring and supportive nature and through his innate belief that every child, no matter what, can learn and deserves to be supported to achieve their potential.  I take this opportunity to thank Raymond, Marian and Brendan for what they have given to the young people in their care and I wish them all the very best as they move into the next phase of their lives.

End of Term 2

The end of this week will mark the midpoint of the academic year for most students (even though VCE students are already well into their Unit 3/4 studies). Reports for Senior and Junior School Students have been uploaded onto Compass and Middle School reports will be available at the start of Term 3. 

A number of things have taken place this semester and we have ended the term with the beginning of the course selection process for VCE 2014 for our current Year 10 Students and the Enhancement Program 2014 Information Evening for current Year 9 Students. It’s time for a rest!

I take this opportunity to wish all students and staff a very safe, relaxing break and whilst it is important that particularly Year 12 students spend some of this time in quiet study it is also important that they do have a break in preparation for Term 3 which every year seems to be filled with lots to do and little time to do it in.

As is normally the case on the last day of term school will be dismissed at 2.30pm.  School resumes on the 15 July and I look forward to our continued work together.

Assistant Principal’s Report

Curriculum

As we move into the final week of a long and busy term, students across the school are engaged in a number of important events:

·         Students in Year 7 have just celebrated their learning with the Integrated Studies Expo evening which ran last Thursday. The evening was a success and it was fantastic to circulate amongst the students and explore the range of activities that they had been engaged in during term two. Next term students’ learning will be focused around their upcoming City Experience camps.

·         Students in Year 8 should now be thinking forwards to the upcoming Middle School Information Night. The session will be held on Monday, 29 July at 7.00pm and is an important introduction for Year 8 students to the Middle School program that they will experience next year. The evening is a good opportunity to get an overview of the program and to explore the range of subjects that are on offer.

·         Middle School students have recently returned to normal classes from their exams. The way that students in both year levels approached their exams was excellent and I am sure it has been a positive learning experience for them. Year 10 students attended the VCE Information Night on Monday, 24 June. This is a vital step in setting students up for a successful entry into Senior School and any student who was not able to attend should contact the Middle School office as soon as possible. Year 9 students also had the opportunity to attend the Enhancement Information Evening. Enhancement into VCE is an excellent option for many students and any student considering this, who was unable to attend the evening, should speak to Mrs Kerry Lambert in the Middle School office.

·         VCE and Junior School reports are now available online via Compass. It is important that students review these reports carefully and think about what they can do to improve throughout the year. Reports are a good way of celebrating what has been achieved, but should also be a learning tool for the future. Please note that Middle School reports will be available on Monday 22 July.

I congratulate all students on their efforts this term and wish students and their families a happy and safe holiday.

New VCE Subject – VCE Extended Investigation

Extended Investigation is a new VCE subject at Eltham High School which will be a scored study in 2014.  The subject has been piloted at Eltham High through VCAA for 2 years with much success.  The subject is a Unit 3/4 sequence only and is available to all Year 11 and 12 students.

The focus of the subject is on students developing and conducting a research project in an area of interest to them.  Students are able to pursue almost any area of interest through their investigation.  The research project is an individual project although students work collaboratively to support each other through the research process.  Students are taught skills including developing research questions, critical thinking, research ethics and method design, academic writing and presentation.  Eltham High School has also developed a partnership with La Trobe University who pair Extended Investigation students with a university based academic mentor.  The skills taught in this subject are of benefit not only in other VCE subjects but as students’ transition to higher education.

Further details are available in the Senior School Subject Selection Handbook.  Anyone who would like further information can also speak to Ms Clarke (Office Room 304), Mrs Reed and Madame Hughes (both in Room 144), all of whom teach the subject.

Eltham High School Building Fund

With the end of the Financial Year coming upon us, have you considered making a tax deductable donation to the Building Fund?  All donations over $2 are tax deductable and your money will be used to support improved facilities for our students. 

The money received by the Building Fund allows us to improve the build facilities around the school.  Over the recent years the school has committed significantly to providing better learning spaces for our students.  In particular, with the placing of data projectors and speakers in virtually all learning spaces.  Classroom spaces have been modernised and a program has commenced to provide cooling systems in rooms.

There remain areas where the school still has work to do:

·         Firstly, to continue with the installation of cooling systems to make areas much more pleasant during what is becoming much hotter summers.  The more funds available, the quicker the whole school can be completed. 

·         The other priority is to use some of the Building Fund to assist with the ‘fitting off’ of the Performance Centre.  Seating and acoustic treatment are important aspects that are still to be completed.  We will be setting up a Cooperative to make a sizable contribution to fund this work.  However, with changes to the way Cooperatives are organised we must now make a considerable financial contribution from the Building Fund so that we can commit to this work.

We do hope that you can make a tax deductable donation to the Eltham High School Building Fund to help with the continual improvement of our student facilities.
