Issue 6 - Haileybury Insight

Alumni from Haileybury have served in most major conflicts that Australia has been involved in.

One hundred and eleven Haileyburians served in the military during WW1. This was a remarkably high figure for a small school, which had been operating for 22 years at the time of the outbreak of the war in 1914. Twenty-two paid the ultimate sacrifice.

During WW2, a further 156 Haileyburians fought and 15 gave their lives.

As we approach this significant anniversary, we list the names of those Haileyburians who have served Australia and honour those who died in the conflicts.

Haileybury Honour Roll

Lest We Forget

Derek Scott

Principal

Haileybury doesn't stop during the breaks, however, and there are a number of staff and students away on tours, and rehearsing for the Senior School Musical, The Wedding Singer. The Head of Senior School, Mrs Chamberlain, is visiting the Western Front battlefields and sent this atmospheric photograph from Flanders Field.

In this ANZAC centenary year, the Senior School Assembly on Tuesday, 21 April, will take on a particular significance, with Haileybury being represented by Asanga Seneviratne (Yr 12 SH) at the Gallipoli Dawn Service. A number of staff and students have visited the Gallipoli peninsula in the last two years.

The Year 9 Options and Expeditions were successfully concluded and our Pre-Seniors can now look forward to the next stage in their academic pathway through the Senior School. Part of this will involve individual discussions about subject selections with either the Dean of Studies, Ms Allen, the Pre-Senior Director of Curriculum and Teaching, Mrs Furusho, or the Deputy Heads of Senior School at Berwick and Brighton, Mr Mann and Mr Watson. For parents and guardians of current Year 9 students, there will be an information session on Monday, 18 May, at Keysborough – further details of this meeting will be sent out by email early in Term 2. The purpose of the session is to explain the various pathways available to students, as well as some of the factors that the School considers when advising students about their selection of subjects.

For parents and guardians of Year 12 students, the first of two tertiary information sessions will be held on Monday, 4 May, in Aikman Hall; the second session will be held during Term 3. As always, the Director of Courses and Careers, Mrs Fankhauser, has a wealth of knowledge in this regard and is more than happy to arrange individual consultations. The Careers Development Services tab on go2 is also a valuable source of advice and information.

Congratulations to Mr Main, Head of Rendall House, and the students at Senior School Brighton, who, in the last week of Term 1, raised over $850 towards victims of Cyclone Pam. The unusual feature of this fundraising was its format: a coin tower for gold coins, measured at the height of the tallest student at Brighton, Joel Cain (Yr 11 RE), who measures in at 205cm. Although Joel's height was not quite reached, the Social Justice leaders were very pleased with the total amount raised.

With summer officially over, a reminder that students should be wearing the full winter School uniform when they return; there is a fortnight or so of tolerance, however, for those who still wish to wear summer uniform. As always, students are reminded that hair, jewellery, nail polish and other holiday decorations, should only be worn in accordance with the School guidelines. In particular, hair should be conservatively styled, naturally coloured, and in the case of boys, worn above the collar.

I wish you all a successful and enjoyable Term 2.

Gavin Watson

Deputy Head of Senior School (Brighton)

GENERAL NEWS

Our ANZAC Day service will be held on Friday, 24 April, commencing at 10.15 am in West Quad. This year's service will recognise the 100^th anniversary of the Gallipoli landing. All are welcome.

Parent-Teacher Interview letters will be distributed in the first week of Term 2. I encourage all parents to make a time to speak with Class Teachers and Specialists on Thursday, 23 April (ELC, Junior School & Middle School) and Tuesday, 28 April (Years 7 & 8 only).

I encourage our students to begin saving for the Mothers Day Stall that will be conducted on Thursday, 7 May. This provides a fine opportunity for our students to purchase a gift for their mothers. I thank the HPFC for their organisation of this valuable service.

EARLY LEARNING CENTRE

Literacy in the ELC is a key component of the program, with outcomes that we are immensely proud of. In the past weeks, all ELC class teachers have come together to review the program and refine the objectives to be a unified and term-specific approach. The goals and aims of the program will be discussed with you at the Parent-Teacher Interviews, along with the individual goals for your child moving into Term 2.

Parent-Teacher Interview forms will be distributed on the Monday prior to the interview. I encourage you to take the time to reflect on the teachers' comments from Term 1 and the progress your child has made; then set some new specific goals that together we can work toward through the emergent curriculum.

These Parent-Teacher discussions are very important to share, so if you are not able to make an interview time for Thursday, 23 April, then please make another time with your class teacher.

JUNIOR SCHOOL

Assemblies

We have made some further changes to our Junior School Assemblies and have seen some fabulous presentations throughout Term1. We would like to add additional fun and education by inviting parents and members of the community to share a cultural celebration as it arises throughout the year. If you would be interested in presenting to the Junior School about a celebration that you participate in, please contact Emma Cox via email.

MIDDLE SCHOOL

Term 2 promises to be another busy one for our Middle School students with over 100 students contributing to the School Musical, NAPLAN occurring in Week 5 for Years 5 and 7, and end-of-semester exams for Year 8 students. It is important that all students organise their time effectively to ensure that they are in a position to do her/his best.

Parent-Teacher Interviews

These will be held on Thursday, 23 April, for all students in Years 5-8 and a second session will be held on Tuesday, 28 April, for Years 7 and 8 students only. Please utilise this opportunity to discuss your child's interim reports with her/his teachers.

House Athletics

This event will be for all Middle School students on Friday, 17 April. Please ensure you child has their correct House uniform.

GENERAL NEWS

Welcome to Term 2; a term when we have a strong emphasis on academic rigour and when we also officially launch our Social Justice initiatives for 2015.

On Wednesday, 15 April, we have a Football Clinic for our Years 3-6 students where several members of the premiership-winning Hawthorn Football Team will be coming out to run an exciting morning of activities. To celebrate this event, we will hold an Egg and Bacon BBQ Breakfast on the Main Oval from 8.00 am. Students and parents from any year level are welcome to come and purchase breakfast and have a casual kick of the football before classes commence on that day. All profits will go towards the Children's Cancer Centre Foundation. The clinic for our Years 3-6 students will commence at 9.00 am.

The inaugural Haileybury Rubik's Cube Championship commences on Friday, 17 April, when we search for the Edrington Rubik's Cube Champion to represent our campus at the whole-School event the following week.

This year is a very special ANZAC Day, marking the 100^th anniversary of the ANZAC landings at Gallipoli. All of our students will be involved in special services at School during that week, and we will also have a group of students march on ANZAC Day in the local service.

Parent-Teacher Interviews for all year levels will be held in Week 2 of this term. Bookings can be made via go2.

EARLY LEARNING CENTRE

Literacy

In the ELC we believe in, and support children in, being exposed to, and developing, a sound literacy foundation prior to school entry. Many families relish the ELC Program for the literacy component as it agrees with their own personal beliefs and goals for their children. Recently, ELC educators reviewed the Literacy Program and refined the term's objectives across all centres. Opportunities to discuss the Term 2 Literacy Program and any other element of the ELC curriculum will be part of Parent-Teacher Interviews, which will be held on Thursday, 23 April.

Parent-Teacher Interviews

Parent-Teacher Interviews are an excellent opportunity for you as parents to discuss with educators the progress your child has made, set new goals that we can work on together, and share stories about your child's learning. Individual forms will be distributed during the week of interviews and we ask parents to complete these prior to their interview. Educators value these meetings as it is part of building a strong partnership between home and School. Please feel welcome to make an alternative time with your child's teacher should you require it. Bookings can be made on go2.

JUNIOR SCHOOL

Cyclone Pam Donation Drive

A massive thank you is extended to all Junior School families for their donations to our Cyclone Pam donation drive. On the last day of Term 1, all donations were collected and have been shipped to Vanuatu to those affected. A special mention must go to our Social Justice Captains, Grishma Boppana and Sam Nielsen, who assisted Mrs Georgia Fabien with this initiative.

Years 3-6 Football Clinic

Please remember that on Wednesday, 15 April, students in Years 3 to 6 will be involved in a Football Clinic. Students in Years 3 to 6 are permitted to wear their football colours to School on this day. The clinic will begin at 8.45 am and will involve games, skills and drills. Please note that Year 4 students will also have their swimming lessons afterwards, so will need to remember their swimming bags too.

Junior School Fitness Club

This term we will continue our Junior School Fitness Club. We were thrilled with the attendance at these sessions last term and encourage all students to attend when possible. The aim of Fitness Club is to promote a healthy and active lifestyle among our younger students while attempting to improve their overall fitness and skills. Sessions will continue in the Sports Hall and on the front oval each Tuesday and Thursday morning from 7.45 am.

MIDDLE SCHOOL

A big term is ahead for our Middle School as NAPLAN and exams are on the horizon. The Years 5/6 boys and girls start the term with a Football Clinic on Wednesday, 15April – there will be some Hawthorn players in attendance! Years 7 and 8 are welcome to have a kick with their parents before School but must then head to class.

On Monday, 20 April, Family Life will run an incursion for the Year 8 boys and girls on sexual health. The following day, Tuesday, 21 April, the Middle School will be attending a special ANZAC Day service at Keysborough to commemorate the 100^th year since the soldiers landed at Gallipoli.

Parent-Teacher Interviews will be held on Tuesday, 21, and Thursday, 23 April, in the John Twist Hall. The booking process for interviews will be open to parents on Monday, 13 April, via go2.

The Narre Warren Lions Club and Beyond Blue have combined forces with a project called 'joining hands'. This is to help raise awareness of anxiety and depression and to help remove the stigma of those suffering. This is particularly pertinent to our boys' Social Justice cause, Youth Beyond Blue. On Thursday, 23 April, they are holding an open community event with Tony Wind, a guest speaker from Beyond Blue. This will be held at Casey Council Chambers, Narre Warren at 7.00 pm.

Good luck to the Dance and Aerobics teams who are performing their routines at the Frankston Arts Centre on Tuesday, 21 April, as the opening to their competition season.

National Quality Standard Assessment and Rating

Newlands ELC recently underwent a detailed National Quality Standard Assessment and Rating visit by an ACEQUA (Australian Children's Education and Care Quality Authority) assessor. The assessor observed and assessed the ELC on the educational program and practices, children's health and safety, the physical environment, staffing arrangements, educator's relationships with children, collaborative partnerships with families and the community, and leadership and service management. This rating will be published on the ACEQUA and mychild websites.

EARLY LEARNING CENTRE

Literacy

Reception educators are very excited to present a program called Welcome to the Alphabet to their classes this term. The focus will be on introducing the children to letters of the alphabet with an emphasis on the name and sound of the different alphabet letters. The Reception children have been developing name recognition skills and will use this familiarity with their written name as a foundation to look at the initial letter in their names. The Reception Literacy Program will be delivered on a daily basis through whole-group work, small-group play activities and individual teaching time.

Pre-Prep educators will continue to encourage the children to develop an awareness of sounds, of the relationship between letters and sounds, and an interest in print. All ELC children will be given the opportunity to develop their comprehension skills, their ability to retell a story, and letter formation skills. Literacy is highly valued within the ELC program and is embedded in all curriculum domains across each day.

JUNIOR SCHOOL

Winter Uniform

Throughout Terms 2 and 3, students in Junior School wear the winter uniform. This requires all Junior School students to wear their blazer to and from School each day. Blazers are not worn during playtime and are kept safe and clean in classrooms during the School day. Junior School girls also change from wearing their white straw hat to wearing their magenta beret.

Junior School Parent-Teacher Interviews

Junior School Term 2 Parent-Teacher Interviews will be held on Tuesday, 28 April. Interview bookings can be made via the online booking system. If you are experiencing difficulty making an online booking, please contact the staff at Newlands Reception.

Media Studies Excursion

On Wednesday, 15 April, the Year 8 Media Studies class will travel to ACMI (Australian Centre for Moving Image) in Federation Square, for a film making workshop: Race-Around the Square.

Race-Around the Square supports a variety of skills to teach the steps of making a film, including screen-based storytelling, creativity and working together as a team. Students will explore the three stages of creating a film, also known as the '3 Ps' – pre-production, production and post-production. This innovative workshop is designed to demystify the filmmaking process. In small teams, students plan, script, locate, perform in, direct and shoot a 60-second film, while working against the clock.

STUDENT ACHIEVEMENTS

Congratulations to Ashleigh Meneses of Year 8 for coming equal 1st at a recent State Diving Competition and for qualifying to attend the Nationals at Homebush in Sydney during the July school holidays.

President, Newlands Parents & Friends

In China, the people recognise traditional beliefs such as Confucianism, which includes having a respect for your ancestors. The people also celebrate a range of festivals that include New Year, National Day, May Day, Dragon Boat and Qingming. Qingming means Tomb-Sweeping Day and is celebrated on the 15th day after the Spring Equinox. It is a time for people to honour their ancestors. Chinese travel across the country to return home and offer a small tribute on their ancestors' graves. Red flags and small offerings of food and wine are frequently left at the site making the graveyards a bright and busy place over the weekend. In order to help people complete this ritual, the government decrees a long weekend and gives free tolls on all the freeways to help the people return home.

Students from Haileybury China regularly visit Shepherd's Field, the local orphanage for disadvantaged students. In this way they make personal connections and come to understand the fortunate place they have in the world, and the responsibility such good fortune brings with it.

Jackson Ross (Year 10 Keysborough) and Mike Vaughan (Year 12 Keysborough) have been selected. To have two players represented from one school is an outstanding achievement.

GOLF SUCCESS

Haileybury College won the Team event at the annual APS/AGSV Golf event held at Royal Melbourne (making seven Team trophies in the last nine years!). After 18 holes, 12 players carded a round in the 70s. Ryan Ruffels was the best of these with 69 strokes – a deserved (fourth-time) winner of the Individual trophy in 2015.

THE PERFORMING ARTS

The Wedding Singer has offered the cast a lot of fun over the rehearsal period in Term 1. This week, we have made great progress getting the flow of the show happening and refining the larger cast scenes. The backstage crew has also been working hard perfecting their wallpapering skills as we have prepared the six large flats that will drive the set design for the School musical. These flats will revolve with every scene change creating the myriad of settings required in this fast-paced musical. We have also seen the installation of new curtains in the Aikman Hall, which has allowed us to build the 'black box' to which most theatre designers aspire. It definitely gives the hall a more dramatic appearance.

Date: 29 and 30 April and 1 May

Time: 7.30 pm.

Tickets: $35 for adults and $20 for students/concessioners.
