CAMPERDOWN COLLEGE NEWSLETTER Term 2, Week 7, 26th May 2016

Camperdown

amperdown College staff were delighted to celebrate Education Week with students, families and special visitors at last Wednesday’s Open Night.

Students are always proud to share their classrooms and learning with family members and we are very appreciative of the support shown by our school community. Our Prep classroom was also opened up to prospective families on Wednesday morning to give kindergarten parents an insight into the early years’ school experience. Congratulations to all students who participated in Education Week activities with such enthusiasm and pride.

Cherie Kilpatrick, Principal

Clockwise from top: Mercy Rothman; Honor and Oliver Rahles-Rahbula; Kyle Bernaldo, Krooze

McEwan-Hill, Makye Gleeson and Phoenix Blanchette; Lawson and Jocelyn Clark; Amelia Gili with

her Mum Holly-Jane; Paula, Lewis and Zack Regan.

Our Mission: Camperdown College will provide exemplary teaching and learning programs within excellent facilities which foster school pride,

aspiration and persistence to achieve high levels of learning for all students.

From the Principal’s Desk…

Thank you for your attendance at our

Education Week Open Night last

Wednesday. Following on from the

Compass launch, families have now been

mailed out an information package and

consent form in order for the school to

take the next step of creating parent

accounts. Included in the package is an

optional survey on student reporting at Camperdown

College as we would appreciate a parent perspective on

what kind of feedback is most useful and valued.

Please try to return your Compass parent consent forms by

tomorrow to enable us to provide you with your parent

account and access details next week. Your feedback as we

implement Compass across the school and you learn to use

the various functions will be valuable. If you notice any

discrepancies in your child’s attendance information on

Compass, please contact the relevant campus office to ask

questions or advise of any changes that may be required.

I am very pleased to announce the recent appointment of

Mrs Lisa Guegan-Brown to the Food Technology teaching

position at Camperdown College. Previously a chef, Mrs

Guegan-Brown brings both industry and teaching

experience to the position and we are looking forward to

her joining the staff team next semester.

Last Thursday I attended the first meeting of the new

Moyne principals’ network in Mortlake. Changed

Departmental network boundaries bring the Warrnambool

and Corangamite principals together, replacing the previous

Warrnambool and Colac Corangamite networks. Next

Thursday and Friday I will be at the Bastow Institute in

Melbourne attending facilitator training for the Inspire

Local Leaders program, which is designed to help increase

the number of quality leaders for school leadership roles. I

have been invited to assist with the delivery of this program

in south west Victoria and it is pleasing to see that aspirant

leaders in our local area will have access to this

professional learning program. Attracting and retaining

applicants for school leadership positions remains a

challenge in rural Victoria.

Visitors to the Senior Campus may have noticed new

signage pointing to the Grimwade Library. Ian Currell has

completed a decorative sign on the corridor wall and will

shortly complete signage on the glass panelling above the

door itself. A permanent photographic and informative

board will be mounted inside the library door to ensure

that the history of the Grimwade Memorial Library is

conveyed to students.

At the Junior Campus there is great excitement amongst

the student body as plans for the installation of new

playground equipment are beginning to take shape. Parents

& Friends are on track to meet their fundraising target of

$30,000 and we are optimistic that with your support, we

will see the first pieces of new equipment installed next

term. Similarly, our students have embraced the 5c

Challenge and are very close to reaching the initial

fundraising target of $1,000. So the answer to the question,

Can we build a cubby out of 5c pieces? seems to be a very

definite, Yes we can! The students appear to be highly

motivated to keep on fundraising through the 5c Challenge

to build an even bigger and better cubby. Thank you to

College families for your enthusiastic support of these

projects.

Once all targets are met, there will be many ways in which

you can assist with the redevelopment of the Junior

Campus yard.

We will be looking for volunteers to

assist with the preparation of the

site, building of the cubby,

repainting of the totum poles,

creation of sensory and imaginative

play spaces…and lots more!

Tuesday 7th

June from 10.10am – 1.15pm. Students are to assemble at the hall by 9.45am. Students will have a late lunch after the

GAT and attend periods 5/6 as normal. An information session on how to approach the GAT will be held after school next Tuesday.

Try a Career Day:

Year 9 students will venture to TAFE in Warrnambool as part of their Try a Career Day tomorrow. This is a great opportunity to

explore different career pathways that are available. They will have the opportunity to participate in hands on activities, speak to

presenters and ask questions about what they might need to do to enter a career that interests them.

Year 9 Rail Trail Camp: Our Year 9 students enjoyed their two days exploring the Camperdown Timboon Rail Trail. The students rode to Glenfyne and

camped the night in tents at the old railway siding. They mastered the art of cooking their evening meal on trangias and had fun

playing spotlight tiggy and dodging the wrath of leeches. On the second day, the students walked to Timboon. Thank you to Mr

Gration for organising and attending the camp along with Miss Hurrell.

VSSS District Rehearsal:

The second district VSSS rehearsal was conducted in the AG Daws Hall last week. Our group which includes students from Year 7 –

10 are mastering all of the moves and dancing beautifully. Their commitment to lunch time rehearsals is fantastic and displaying

dividends.

VCAL Community Meal:

VCAL students prepared the community meal at the Uniting Church last week. Homemade pumpkin soup, sausage rolls, scallop

potatoes, fried rice, hedgehog and lemon slice was warmly received by all the participants. Thank you to staff for donating the

ingredients for the students to use to make the lunch.

BRICKs:

Building Resilience in Corangamite Kids is a program run by the Corangamite Shire that provides an opportunity for young people to

develop their own skills and self-awareness around anxieties, mental/physical health and overall wellbeing. It assists in building on an

individual’s capacity to bounce back from a situation and knowledge of how to better manage their own

Senior Campus News


pressures/choices/expectations. Year 9 students spent the day on Tuesday working through this program under the leadership of

Angela Gowans and Angela Brown.

Sticks and Stones:

The Sticks and Stones performance organised by Claire Blackstock was enjoyed by students in Year 7 – 10 last week. The students

gained further understanding of the impact of bullying, regulating behaviour and responding to bullying.

Year 6 to 7 Transition:

On Tuesday 7th

June our Year 5/6 students will commence their transition program. Over a number of weeks the students,

accompanied by their teachers, will visit the Senior Campus. These visits to the Senior Campus give these students a valuable

opportunity to spend time with secondary teaching staff and become familiar with the rooms and facilities. A letter confirming session

times and dates has been sent home to families today.

Vicki Angus, Senior Campus Assistant Principal

Open Night:

What a fabulous night we had last Wednesday evening as we opened our College doors to celebrate Education Week.

This year’s theme of Technology. Create your Future provided the opportunity for students to showcase some of the

ways they learn with technology tools to their parents and families.

It was fabulous to see so many of our families wandering around the school participating in the classroom activities

ranging from making iPad’s, to creating a narrative text using the program Storybird. To conclude the evening, our

Junior Campus School Captains presented a slideshow of our technology program at Camperdown College. Thank

you to all those families who attended our evening. We are very proud of all the programs we offer at our College and we are

fortunate to have such a dedicated staff to lead our students.

Year 3 – 6 District Cross Country:

Congratulations to our Cross Country team who competed at the District Cross Country Carnival in Noorat last Friday. They

competed against other students from Simpson, Timboon, Terang, Noorat, Camperdown and Mortlake. All students competed with

enthusiasm and it was pleasing to hear the encouragement they offered each other as individuals ran around the course. Well done to

Eve Britton, Declan Tickner, Dylan Robertson and Ruby Kempton who have progressed through to divisional level in Warrnambool

at Victoria Park tomorrow. We wish them the best of luck!

Simultaneous Storytime:

Yesterday, all students in Prep – Year 6 participated in National Simultaneous Storytime. Every year, a

picture book written and illustrated by an Australian author and illustrator is read simultaneously in

libraries, schools, pre-schools, childcare centres, family homes, bookshops and many other places

around the country. All students thoroughly enjoyed listening to the 2016 story I Got This Hat. By

facilitating National Simultaneous Storytime, we aim to:

promote the value of reading and literacy;

promote the value and fun of books;

promote an Australian writer and publisher.

Thank you to Barb Purcell for coordinating this event.

Long Service Leave:

Julie Nelson and Judy Downie are currently on long service leave until Tuesday 14th

June. We are very fortunate to have extremely

capable relief teachers to step in and fulfil their teaching roles. We welcome Mrs Jan Green in Year 1/2N and Mrs Cilla Condie in

Year 3/4D.

Lunch Boxes:

We have a policy of no rubbish in the yard which means that students must put all disposable wrapping and containers into a bin

before they are allowed to play. This helps to keep our grounds tidy as well as protecting the environment. Parents can help by

providing foods for school that are not packaged in disposable wrappers.

Prep Writing:

Our Prep students have been practising writing instructional texts as part of their writing program. Enjoy reading How to Catch a Star.

How to Catch a Star How to Catch a Star First wait until it is out. First go out at night. Next hop on the trampoline. Next we load the canon with nets. Then jump really high. Then we fire the canon towards the star. Then just hook your fishing rod up to the star. Finally the star is ours. Hook the star. Wind it in. Give it a cuddle.

Communication:

There may be occasions when your child arrives home and tells you of something which may have occurred during the day at school

or whilst travelling to and from school. Any concerns you or your child may have regarding events at school are certainly ours also,

but we need to follow correct protocols in addressing them. Your first port of call must always be to contact the Office if you wish to

speak with your child’s class teacher. Teachers’ priority at school is teaching and learning and therefore it is not possible for them to

speak with you about any issues or concerns whist they are teaching. Our teachers are the people in the best position to speak to you

Junior Campus News


about any issues as they usually have an understanding of incidents which may or may not have taken place. They also provide a

balanced view as there are always two sides to every story.

Teachers have management and learning plans in place to ensure best outcomes for the children. They are trained professionals who

work hard to ensure the safety and wellbeing of all the children in their care. They are also tertiary trained experts in the delivery of

the curriculum and it is incumbent on them to communicate with you regarding the development of your child. I am always available

to speak with you; please contact me through the Office, as shared communication results in better outcomes for all.

Simultaneous Storytime was held yesterday at the Junior

Campus. This year’s story was I Got This Hat, written

by Jol and Kate Temple. The idea of Simultaneous

Storytime is that participating Australian schools read

the same book at the same time on the same day.

Camperdown College students assembled in the BER

building at 9.15am to listen to this story. Students were

encouraged to bring their favourite hat to school to wear

whilst listening to the story; an array of colourful hats

filled the crowd before me as I read the story.

On Tuesday 17

th May, Year 10 students (and some parents), were involved in a Keys Please session. This session was run by Peter

Gstrein from Vic Roads and was an invaluable learning experience for our students as they embark on their journey of becoming fully

licensed drivers. The session included a variety of engaging activities and relevant information that highlighted the different driving

skills and experiences that a learner needs to master, in order to become a responsible and safe licensed driver ready to navigate our

roads. A big thank you must go to Peter Gstrein for running such an informative session and to Vic Roads for running this

enlightening program. We hope that the students and parents enjoyed the session and walked out fully equipped to tackle those

sometimes testing learner driver experiences.

Last Friday 20th

May was the HSSSD Cross Country which was held at the Frederick Street

Sporting Complex. Approximately thirty-five students represented Camperdown College in the

event and although conditions were wet and the track was muddy, all participants gave it their

best go which was very pleasing to see.

Special mention must go to Jack Helmore (pictured right) who won his age group and Devon Coates and Olivia

Henzen who placed third in their respective age groups. We have a number of students who have made it through

to the Greater Wester Region Cross Country which will be held on Monday 6th

Thank you to the parents who came to support our students on the day and to the Miss McLennan and Miss Hurrell

for giving up their time to help staff the event.

Ever tried coding? With the technologies that we

have today, even people who are still in school can

earn a living from doing so.

Coding is a little like putting LEGO blocks together.

Our Year 3 – 6 students have recently started their

coding journey. If you're keen to give it a go, a great

place to start is with the Hour of Code.

Winter Concert – Save the Date:

Families and friends are warmly invited to our Winter Concert on Wednesday 8th

June at 7pm in the BER building

at the Junior Campus. Our Instrumental Music students will be performing solos and group items and Mr Sharp’s

guitar students will be joining us for the first time.

Junior School Band:

The Junior School Band rehearses every Friday at lunchtime in the Library. The Band is made up of violin, recorder

and keyboard students and accompanied by students on the xylophone and metellaphone. This semester, they have

performed at assembly and will be performing at our Winter Concert.

Senior Ensemble:

Last Saturday, our Senior Ensemble Fiddle Fingers played their celtic tunes at the Robert

Burns Scottish Festival outside the Council Offices, adding to the Festival atmosphere.

This term they have also performed at various community concerts such as Music in

Mortlake, 15 Minutes of Fame at St Bridgit’s in Crossley, the Terang Nexus Concert and

the Noorat Presbyterian Celtic Concert as Fiddle Fingers, and with Corangamite Strings,

a string orchestra for senior string students from district schools.

Not only has their playing improved, but

most importantly, they have shared their

love of music with others. A big

congratulations to Jordan Watson, Tim

Fagan, Otto Leonard-Pekin, Jack

Leonard-Pekin and Lewani Bateman for

their musical performances!

On Tuesday 17th

and Wednesday 18th

May, ten Year 9/10 students (all completing Duke of Edinburgh certificates and pictured

below) tackled the Camperdown Timboon Rail Trail as their practice journey. On the first day, students rode their bikes to

Glenfyne before camping in tents at the old Glenfyne station siding. Students revelled in the opportunity to learn about the history

of the line and all of the work that has been put in to convert it to a rail trail. In the morning, staff and students concluded the camp

by walking into Timboon.

The camp was a huge success with students

clearly showing that they had acquired the

skills required to pitch a tent, ride a bike,

plan a menu, shop for the ingredients, cook

on a methylated spirits stove, and most

importantly have fun whilst learning and

working together in the great outdoors.

Monday 16th

May saw our Senior Campus Students treated to the live play Sticks & Stones by renowned educational touring company

Brainstorm Productions. Two energetic young performers shone a spotlight on negative patterns of behaviour through inappropriate

modelling from peers, family members, television and computer games. It examined the link between hormones, adrenalin, the fight,

flight response and alcohol fuelled violence. The play was punctuated with circus skills to demonstrate co-operation and the use of

control through breath, focus and channelling energy into positive pursuits.

The hard hitting narrative explored the different forms of bullying in the playground, in the street and at home. School yard scenarios

were used to encourage students to have empathy and understanding around invading people’s personal space, homophobic and racist

remarks, domestic violence and intimidation in person or on the internet and explored how these actions are all illegal and have serious

consequences.

The play provided students with strategies around conflict resolution, friendships, co-operation, resilience, exclusion, sexual

harassment, bullying, cyber bullying and ethical cyber practices, anger management, assertiveness, domestic violence and breaking the

cycle of violence.

Feedback from students has been very positive and we are confident that all students have taken away important messages from the

play. Further information and support can be found at:

On Thursday 16th

June, we will be hosting the mobile World

of Work on Wheels (WOWOW) bus and Virtual Career Expo

Experience. This is an initiative of the Career Education

Association of Victoria and the Department of Education and

Training. All Senior Campus students will have access to the

bus during this day.

On the WOWOW bus, students will undertake a structured

lesson on career planning; view an online virtual career expo

entitled Next Steps and participate in a Samsung Gear

Glasses 3D Experience, which will involve students viewing

a specifically designed virtual reality app using Samsung

Gear VR Oculus 3D Glasses. Through the app, students will

explore careers in six growth industry areas.

It is important to note that if your child suffers from

certain medical conditions or symptoms, their use of the

3D glasses may expose them to risks of seizures,

blackouts, dizziness or other discomfort such as

disorientation, head aches or symptoms similar to motion

sickness. If you have concerns about your child’s use of

the 3D glasses please contact us prior to this activity.

Students will also be required to complete two short surveys.

The first will be completed prior to the WOWOW bus visit

as part of a classroom activity and will ask students about

their future career plans and the types of information they

need to make career decisions. The second survey will be

conducted after the WOWOW bus visit. If you have any

concerns about your child participating in these surveys,

please let me know.

During the WOWOW bus visit, students may be

photographed and these images may be used by the DET or

CEAV. We feel very lucky to have been chosen to participate

in this experience and are looking forward to it rolling in to

Camperdown College.

If you have any concerns about any part of this program

please let me know as soon as possible.
