Transition Day

On Thursday 22听November, students who will be new to 亚洲无码 in 2019, joined our classes for the essential transition and introduction program for 2019. The Junior School hosted all 鈥new for 2019鈥 Year 1 to Year 5 students and the Middle School hosted all the current 亚洲无码 Year 5s and the new Year 6 to Year 9 students. We were also pleased to welcome the new Head of Middle School 2019, Mrs Lauren Brooks, for the day. Mrs Brooks will join 亚洲无码 in January.

The Middle School students met the year level teachers, Community Coordinators, and Camp Coordinator, Mr Michael Secomb, Mrs Nadine Stroud Director of Music and Mr Josh Willis, Director of Sport to learn about 亚洲无码鈥檚 culture of learning, pastoral care and the many growth and challenge opportunities available to students. The Junior School students spent time with their teacher teams and in class making connections with the students.

Middle School Leaders Induction

Transition Day commenced with the induction of the Middle School Leaders for 2019. This was an opportunity to extend a very big thank you to the leaders of 2018 for their service and contributions and to welcome the new student leaders for 2019.

I shared with the leaders my hope that their time in leadership in the middle years will be about learning the following:

  1. Learning how to bring together people with diverse skills to make a strong team
  2. Learning how to be an authentic leader
  3. Learning how to walk the walk and deliver on commitments
  4. Learning how to embrace change
  5. Learning to ask for help from peers, teachers and parents

We look forward to a very exciting 2019 as our Middle and Senior School students embrace the leadership, mentoring and coaching opportunities that will come from having 320 Junior School students join with us on the One College campus.


Mr Randall Pearce

HEAD OF JUNIOR SCHOOL

Mr听Randall Pearce

 

What a busy end of term! Today we completed another successful Sports Day and into the evening completed our Junior School Thanksgiving, where we gave thanks to our Bicentennial Drive Campus in style with a family picnic, outdoor cinema and a fireworks display.

This event took much planning from a dedicated team that works tirelessly behind the scenes. My sincere thanks to Mr Perry, Mr and Mrs Hopper, Mrs Clifton and Mrs Piercey.

Staffing

Year level teachers will be shared on 3 December, when the children will meet their teacher and class for 2019. On this day, will also be sending home the year level class lists along with the Semester 2 Student Report.

I am pleased to share the replacement for Mrs Joy Ey will be Miss Sarah Davis, who will join us from Lobethal Lutheran School and before that, St Martins Lutheran School in Mt Gambier. Miss Davis is an experienced Reception Teacher who has already met our Reception Ready class and some of the parents, she impressed us in her interview and during her visit, was warm, kind and knows what is required to assist both children and families in their first year of schooling.

Ms Vicki Votino, who is currently on contract within a Year 4 class, has been appointed to the 1.0 FTE permanent teaching role at the Junior School and we 鈥渨elcome her back鈥 to 亚洲无码. Vicki left us a few years ago to further her teaching experiences in England and then returned in a contract role this year.

Ms Grace Liu has been appointed to the permanent part-time role for teaching of Chinese following on from the resignation of Mrs Jie Zhu. Grace has held the contract position while Jie was on parenting leave.

Mrs Tania Crawford has been appointed to the 1.0 FTE teaching role which is a contract for 2019.听Tania has come to us this semester from Seymour College and is currently teaching Year 2.

Mr Jay Callaghan has been appointed to the 1.0 FTE teaching role which is a contract for 2019.听Jay came to us this year from Pultney Grammar and is currently teaching Year 4.

There have been other changes to staffing due to our move toward One College which I would like to share.

From the beginning of 2019, our College will have a full-time R-12 Learning Support Coordinator. Mrs听Julie听Bruce听and the College have sought to find a way to have her stay at 亚洲无码 in this full-time coordinator position from next year but, due to her family commitments, she is unable to take up my offer of the extended role. We are very grateful to听Julie听for her wonderful contributions to 亚洲无码鈥檚 Learning Support program over many years. We look forward to maintaining听Julie鈥檚 significant focus on early intervention and the benefits that will flow from the coordination of our support program across all year levels.

As we move to One College, our Library will be led by Mrs Liz Denton-Brown (Current Middle/Senior School Librarian) supported by Education Support Officers. As a result, Mrs听Heather听Bennett鈥檚 position will become redundant from the commencement of the 2019 school year. We are thankful for the many years of her dedicated service to the Junior School Library. Heather has been a tireless advocate for children鈥檚 reading and literature in her 9 years at 亚洲无码. Her love for reading has been infectious and we look forward to maintaining Heather鈥檚 vision that the Library remain the hub of learning for the College for both students and teachers.

Transition

This week, we welcomed 17 new students to 亚洲无码 for 2019, from Year 1 to Year 5. These new students were buddied up with a current 亚洲无码 student, who supported and welcomed these them to our school. Many thanks to the students and families who took on this role and gave a wonderful introduction to 亚洲无码.


Mr Andrew Whiteman

HEAD OF MIDDLE SCHOOL

Mr Andrew Whiteman

 

It was wonderful to see so many happy faces at the end of our Transition Day for Middle School students on Thursday. A lot of nervous energy was harnessed through the day where our new Year 6-8 students joined the 亚洲无码 Community for the day. The interaction between our students was excellent, with many of our current students going out of their way to welcome and talk with students they did not know. It takes a lot of courage on both sides and I was pleased with the whole community at the end of the day. We had many student helpers ensure the newest members of our College were well looked after and were well fed at lunchtime.

Congratulations to Emma Milne and Waseem El Rachid who have been elected as Middle School Captains for 2019. These two students stood out in a very strong field and we (and the students) are excited to have them lead the Middle School next year. Emma and Waseen, as well as the Middle School Community Captains and Community Service Captains, were introduced to the 亚洲无码 Community at the Leadership induction assembly on Thursday 22 November. I talked to the students and parents about how a good leader inspires others around them to become leaders and want people to join them on a journey. I am confident the leaders we have next year will inspire others to greatness. We thanked the outgoing leaders of 2018 who have led the College with great integrity and enthusiasm. Shannon Taylor and Joshua Carrigan, our 2018 Captains were able to perform their duties with ease and always with the College鈥檚 best interests at heart. I wish them and all our leaders of 2018 every success as they join the Senior School next year.

Congratulations to all the Middle School leaders for 2019. Please click here to view photos.

Mrs Gillian Edwards

HEAD OF SENIOR SCHOOL

Mrs Gillian Edwards

 

Recent publicity has highlighted the establishment of a number of state government schools focusing on innovation. As part of the new Year 10 Commerce, Civics and Citizenship course that commenced this semester, 亚洲无码 students have also had the opportunity to explore innovation within the concept of developing a business plan for an idea, product or service. As a result, some of their ideas that warrant merit are as follows:

  • A zero-gravity treadmill that reduces stress and strain on the lower body, so it can be used by people with knee and ankle injuries
  • A can for drinks that is biodegradable; or has an inbuilt insulator so your hand doesn鈥檛 get cold while holding it
  • A bed that makes itself or looks good with minimal effort
  • A buzzy children鈥檚 needle covering in the shape of a bee or ladybug. Children would be distracted by the cuteness and vibrating buzz when being given their vaccination

Congratulations to Kai Gres, Year 11, who has been selected to attend the SAPOL Youth Leadership Camp, run by the S.T.A.R. Group, to be held over five days during the up-coming January holidays. We wish him well for what should be a most worthwhile and challenging experience.

Our Year 12s have now completed their final written examinations, in what was a very smoothly run process. Their results are expected to be released around the 18听December. We look forward to celebrating with them at their Formal next Wednesday evening at Sfera鈥檚, to be followed by the Senior Thanksgiving Service to be held on Tuesday 4听December commencing at 7.00pm in the Chapel. This is a special and significant event in the College calendar and it is an expectation that all Senior School students attend.

Information about this occasion and details for the final weeks of the term have been emailed to Year 10 and 11 students and their families. We wish these students well as they sit their exams next week. Marked examinations and Semester 2 reports will be available for collection on Monday 10听December, as per the afore-mentioned email.

As another year comes to a rapid close, we wish those Senior School students who are moving on from the College all the very best for their future studies and career pathways. And we look forward to returning in 2019 to what will be a most exciting time as One College.

Sports-Day-10

JUNIOR SCHOOL SPORTS DAY

Thankfully the weather was kind to us this year for the Junior School Sports Day. With a great deal of excitement, topped with a huge amount of enthusiasm, students competed in the many events. The colours of the Community tops looked fabulous and were worn with pride as students tried their hardest to win for their community. This year, Sports Day was held in the morning and, after an afternoon break, came back to finish off with the relays at 4:30pm before continuing on with the Thanksgiving Service, Dinner, Movie and finally the fireworks, all in celebration of the closing of the Junior School as we become One College.

RECEPTION READY – ZOO EXCURSION

On Wednesday 14 November, Reception Ready students went on an excursion to the Adelaide Zoo as a part of their inquiry into 鈥榗olour has a purpose in our world.鈥 It provided them with the opportunity to see how animals use colour. They discovered giraffes and some lizards have blue tongues so their tongues do not get sunburnt, and that many animals use the colours red and orange to warn other animals they may be dangerous.

In the Envirodome, they were able to pat a blue tongue lizard and a very friendly and non-venomous snake. A highlight of the day was visiting the panda enclosure where one of the pandas was very active and came very close to where the students were watching.听 It was a fantastic learning experience for our youngest students.

RECEPTION – TEDDY BEAR’S PICNIC

On Friday 16 November, Receptions took their Teddy Bear鈥檚 on a picnic to Golden Fields. We began with a walk to Golden Fields, carrying our teddies along the way. Throughout the morning there were two different playgrounds to enjoy, along with a picnic under the rotunda with our teddies. It was a fantastic day, suffice to say, we were all tuckered out by the end of the day!

Year-3-Motor-Museum-1

YEAR 3 – MOTOR MUSEUM EXCURSION

On Tuesday 13 November, Year 3s visited the National Motor Museum in Birdwood. As part of our inquiry unit ‘How the World Works,’ students have been looking at the concepts of Change, Form and Function. Our central idea has been about exploring how ‘Humans are driven to imagine, construct and invent. We felt this was a perfect opportunity to explore the invention of cars and the use of a production line to mass produce vehicles.

Students took part in the Motorworks program at the museum where they learned about the introduction of the assembly line and the impact it had on vehicle manufacturing. Year 3s then simulated an assembly line to build a cardboard replica of a Model T Ford. Each child had a different task to complete in their section and some were supervisors of a whole section. Students loved the responsibility of their roles and worked really well together. This was a huge learning opportunity for the students.

It was then time to explore the museum, with students splitting into small groups, where they had another excellent opportunity to see the concept of change right in front of their eyes. There was a clear timeline and development of the motor industry on show. As well as seeing听all those amazing vehicles, the museum also provided a few activities for the children which they found very engaging and challenging, especially the ‘Hunt for Junk’ on the car.

Year 3s had a fantastic time and many of them are very keen to return with their families in their own time!

YEAR 5 – CLELAND WILDLIFE PARK

On Monday 12 November, Year 5 students travelled to Cleland Wildlife Park as a part of their Science Inquiry into animal adaptations. Students took part in an education session which focussed on adaptations unique to Australian wildlife. The students were able to touch and identify the adaptations of a ringtail possum, children鈥檚 python, bearded dragon and a gidgee skink while learning about their unique features.

While exploring the wildlife park, Year 5s kept a tally of the different animal classifications. They also documented unique features of the animals, their adaptations, conservations status and threats. Some of these documented animals included dingoes, goannas, snakes, echidnas, kangaroos and wombats.

Following the experience, some students shared their thoughts on their learning鈥

  • 鈥淲e have learnt many things about animals adapting to different environments.鈥 鈥 Keziah
  • 鈥淲hen we were feeding the kangaroos, we also got to see how they adapted to the wildlife around them.鈥 鈥 Jaken
  • 鈥淚 enjoyed the education centre and touching the animals, my favourite was the snake.鈥 鈥 Bella
  • 鈥淚t was a super fun and memorable experience.鈥 鈥 Hannah
  • 鈥淲e got to have a close experience with the wildlife and animals, I didn鈥檛 know some animals were able to adapt. I hope I can go back there soon.鈥 鈥 Melody
  • 鈥淚 really enjoyed seeing all the animals and being able to feed them. It was the best excursion ever!鈥 – Jessica
  • 鈥淲e learnt animals have interesting features that allow them to adapt to their habitat.鈥 – Tin
  • 鈥淐leland was a good experience and it was interesting to learn about how the animals adapt to their habitat and how they survive.鈥 – Hamish
  • 鈥淚t was interesting getting up close to see the animal鈥檚 unique features and how they use them to adapt to their environment.鈥 鈥 Taylor

AUTISM AWARENESS DAY

On Tuesday 30 October, the Junior School held an Autism Awareness Day. The SVC organised two stalls to sell a variety of items sourced from several organisations that support children with Autism. This proved very popular with students, with some items selling out very quickly.

Blue casual clothes were worn on the day, and in the afternoon, Dr Danielle Robson spoke to students about: 鈥榃hat Autism is?鈥 鈥榃hat it feels like to have Autism,鈥 and 鈥楬ow we could support another student who has been diagnosed with Autism.鈥

Students enjoyed the day and had lots of fun. A donation of $600 will be sent to Autism SA to support the work they do for children living with Autism.

YEAR 6 – CITY EXCURSION

On Friday Week 6, the Year 6 cohort headed to the city for their annual City excursion. Students were very excited to visit Parliament House and to debate in the House of Assembly. Each class chose their own Bill to debate; 6Y鈥檚 Bill (proposed by Minister Ryan Ansari) was that all school students should participate in 3 government funded sports clinics per term. Year 6s came up with excellent arguments for and against the proposal. We would like to acknowledge and thank Paula Luethen, Member for King, and her staff, for taking time out of a busy schedule to host us in Parliament House.

Students also visited the Centre of Democracy where they learnt about how South Australians have exercised their People Power in SA鈥檚 lively and passionate history of activism and civil disobedience. The last stop was the Art Gallery, to complement our studies of Aboriginal art and other notable artworks. Students were very engaged and were excellent ambassadors for 亚洲无码 in their presentation and behaviour. We would like to thank the parents who accompanied the excursion for your time and support, we greatly appreciate it.

YEAR 9 – START SMART PROGRAM

On Tuesday 20 November, a facilitator from Start Smart came to the College to talk to the Year 9 cohort about 鈥楽mart Spending.鈥 The Start Smart program, run by Commonwealth Bank, changes the way young people learn about money. It makes money management interactive, engaging and fun. The program equips students with the confidence to make competent smart decisions about money.

The Smart Spending workshop focuses on challenging students to ask 鈥榳hy?鈥 before they buy. By exploring the sometimes overwhelming influences that affect their decisions as consumers, students are equipped with practical spending strategies to help save money. Smart Spending inspires students to make responsible and discerning personal financial decisions. Concepts covered included:

  • Influences of spending
  • Emotional motives behind financial decisions
  • Strategies for spending smart

Students were thoroughly engaged in the workshop and have realised the important lesson that it is never too early to start making strategies for Smart Spending.

YEAR 9 – REFLECTIONS ON WAR

Two Year 9 students commented recently on what they have learnt about war and the effects it has on people’s lives.

“The Cross Campus Remembrance Day service presented us with a good opportunity to reflect. To reflect on the sacrifice those soldiers made, reflect on the lives that were lost and to reflect on the wars that tore holes in families and countries alike. Not only was it a day for reflection, but it was also a day to be thankful. I appreciated the Remembrance听service as it was a good time to reflect and remember. It was a good reminder, a wake-up call in some ways, of how lucky we are to live freely in Australia, how lucky we are to live in Australia in such a peaceful time and how fortunate we are to have had so many people risk their lives so we could be here today. The Remembrance Day service was a special time and was a great time to reflect and remember.” – Holly Schutz

“With our visit to the War Memorial and Keswick Barracks in the city, we learnt about the many wars Australia has been involved in such as the Vietnam War, World War I and World War II. After attending the combined Remembrance Day service on 9 November, I was fortunate enough to attend a Remembrance Day Ceremony at Oakbank, taking part in the Catafalque party which I found to be quite emotional, knowing what the service was being held for.” –听Christopher Hackney


Year-10-Mural

YEAR 10 – MEDIA ART

In Year 10 Media Art students have removed an old mural from the Senior School courtyard and repainted it. Their goal was to make something bright and inviting.

鈥淥ur focus artist was Henri Matisse and the shapes on the mural were inspired by his cut out pieces which he is most famous for. We analysed his work and then recreated our own concepts in Adobe Illustrator, using the same colours that match the existing murals from the Media Art class in the first semester, who spray painted the brick blocks outside of the library. Our idea includes a lion to show bravery and courage as you enter the school grounds and a lighthouse with 亚洲无码鈥檚 Motto 鈥楲et Your Light Shine鈥. Our concepts were combined to create this final design which we have spent weeks working on.鈥 鈥 Sarah Ferrige, Year 10

Thank you to the maintenance team for assisting with the removal and installation. Thank you to Mr Adrian Powell for helping with this project and painting the top gloss coat. Thank you to Mrs Gillian Edwards for giving the students the opportunity to paint this and providing the brief. Well done to Liliana Carletti, Anderson Emery, Sarah Ferrige, Isaac Rae, Amelia Redding, Zoe Roshkov, Lara Smith and Sarah Whittington for their contribution to the College. Next time you are walking from shared facilities, make sure you look up!

FIRST LEGO LEAGUE TOURNAMENT

On Sunday 18 November, 亚洲无码 Pioneers entered into the FIRST LEGO League (FLL) Gawler regional tournament. Our aim was to progress through to State Championships to be held on Saturday 1 December at 亚洲无码. All are welcome to attend this event, so please come along from 9:00am听onwards to support our students.

After the first round, 亚洲无码 was excited to be leading, however, other teams quickly caught up. A few unfortunate technical errors sent the team down the leader-board of the robot matches. Fortunately, a well-engineered robot, supported by students that could communicate their knowledge of the build, secured the ‘Robot Design Award.’ With many other aspects judged, the team made it through and were given a place in the upcoming tournament. Now the Pioneers have a greater understanding of the expectations, they are eager to refine their robot ready for the next tournament.
