As Term 3 draws to a close I reflect upon the breadth and depth of life Adelaide High School has to offer all its community members. This belief is supported by the range of activities that have occurred since my last newsletter article. Below is a brief summary of those activities, and staff and students certainly need time to catch thier collective breath before Term 4 and all that entails is upon them.

James Sutherland, CEO of Cricket Australia, visited Adelaide High School on Monday, September 11 to promote cricket engagement for girls. James played a cricket match with female students on the school oval. To view the video of the visit, click on the Adelaide High School Facebook page link.

Adelaide High School will participate in the western Adelaide Strikers Girls’ Cricket League this upcoming season after being one of the many recipients of funding through the Growing Cricket for Girls Strategy. To view the story from the Adelaide Strikers website, please click on the link.

Students and staff participating on the German and China Study Tours have left for their adventures. I would like to acknowledge the work of Mr Phil Wilson and Ms Vicki Nikiforos (China Study Tour) and Mr Mark McLeod and Ms Mechthild Timmins (German Study Tour).

Adelaide High School continues to access a number of opportunities to showcase the work and achievement of our amazing students. During Week 8, Mr Nigel Huxtable, on behalf of the DECD Minister’s office, recorded footage of students participating in the China Study Tour. He interviewed a number of our students as part of a piece focusing on China, pathways and Sister Schools. That same week, the SA Teachers Registration Board selected our students to be interviewed as part of a media campaign celebrating World Teachers’ Day in October.

Three Adelaide High School teams performed at Flinders University on Sunday, September 17 as part of the Tournament of Minds. Two teams performed a Social Science Challenge (INSPIR-ational) and one team an Engineering Mathematics Challenge (One Way Trip). The commitment, teamwork, resilience and humour displayed by the teams were wonderful to see. Students Aidan Griffin and Cecile Moylan were the team facilitators this year, so thank you to them and the parents who supported on the day and throughout the planning process.

Our two F1 in Schools teams completed two days of competition at the Royal Adelaide Show, engaging in knockout races, team challenges, presentations and time trials. I had the pleasure of seeing both of our teams - Prismatic and Phoenix - undertake the knockout races.

The students were engaged in learning from each other (both within our teams and with all of the other school teams) and spent most of the time talking about what they had learnt over the past few months.

The overall results for our teams were excellent. Prismatic came second to Brighton, with both teams gaining 6 awards each. Prismatic have been invited to the National Finals next year in March which will be held in Launceston, Tasmania. Staff member Mr John Dimitriou also accompanied a team of our students to engage in STEM learning activities at the Royal Show. The students spent the day working with Steve Brooks and challenging their critical and creative thinking, problem solving and skills in entrepreneurship. Thank you to Mr Trevor Warren for his leadership of the F1 in Schools teams and John for his leadership of the STEM Learning team.

PRINCIPAL’S REPORT (CONTINUED) PAT testing for Years 8, 9 and 10 is occurring at the moment. This is a diagnostic data collection of reading and mathematics and provides teachers with valuable information to support on-going learning improvement.

Through the Australian Mathematics Trust and Australian Science Innovations, Maja Korac and Janna Tapales have been offered a place in the 2017/18 Curious Minds program. This is a national competition and I will update you on their progress.

The SACE Music moderation occurred on Monday and Tuesday of Week 8. I was struck by the talent, the diverse styles, the skill level and the emotion reflected in the music. To truly understand the quality you must hear it for yourself. Thank you to Ms Catherine Aldous and Mr Con Piliouras for their leadership of our music program.

Running with Scissors will present a play for the 2018 Fringe Festival and is in the process of negotiating a play for presentation during the 2019 Dream Big Festival. These are fantastic strategies for showcasing the learning outcomes of students and also showcasing Adelaide High School.

The Rowing Season opened on Saturday, September 16 at the Torrens Boatshed. This is the start of what promises to be an exciting season. Special thanks to Ms Lauren Kolega and Mr Daniel Ralph for their leadership of our Rowing program.

Interschool Chess recently finished and for the first time we had teams in Div 1, 2, 3. It has been a great learning opportunity for all involved. Adelaide is getting stronger in Chess and have some developing star players who, with more experience, will only get better.

Adelaide High School hosted several leaders from local and international schools for the Council of International Schools (CIS) Evaluation Team Leaders’ workshop on Saturday, September 9. This was an opportunity for us to gain first hand an understanding of the new Protocol for CIS. We are currently undertaking permanent teacher panels for the following positions in 2018: • • • • •

Infectious period (time during which an infected person can infect others) Usually from 1 day before onset of symptoms until 7 days after the onset of symptoms.

After 5 days the level of infectiousness is probably very low, however some people, especially children, might be able to infect others for a longer time.

Prevention Exclude people with flu from childcare, preschool, school and work until there has been no fever for 24 hours (without using a fever reducing medicine such as paracetamol).

For comprehensive information on the Flu, click on the link to the Department of Health Flu page.

3 CONGRATULATIONS Congratulations to Jasmine Kaur who will represent BadmintonSA at the U15 National Badminton Championships In Perth.

Congratulations to Martha Trayans who was a finalist in the Woolmark Company Wool4School design competition.

Congratulations to Louise Duran and Nhat Anh-Thu Pham who have been accepted to represent Adelaide High School and DECD as Student Volunteers at the 68th International Astronautical Congress (IAC). The IAC event will be profiling SA and its space economy to an international audience at the Convention Centre during Week 10.

F1 IN SCHOOLS STATE FINALS The 2017 State Finals of the F1 in Schools competition, held at the Royal Adelaide Show, saw two teams representing Adelaide High School. These were Prismatic and Phoenix, both of whom competed in the Senior Professional class for the first time. Prismatic, comprising Sahib Maidh, Phu Pham and Ty Phan, had previously competed in the competition in Development class at both State and National finals in 2016 and 2017 under the name Mach-5.

Phoenix, consisting of Miles Reschke, Oliver Peters, Zoe Tiffen and Kaartik Walia, was a mixture of old and new faces, with Oliver and Zoe competing in the competition for the first time. Senior Professional class is the highest class available in the challenge and demands a much higher quality of work, organisation, commitment and work ethic.

In this year’s competition, despite coming in second place, Prismatic have been invited to participate in the Australian National Finals early in 2018. Prismatic received the following awards; overall 2nd

place in Professional Class, fastest reaction time, best CAD and CAM processes, best manufactured car, best graphic design, best managed enterprise and outstanding team collaboration. Phoenix came in third place and won the best verbal presentation award and the innovation award. The winning team at the National Finals will be crowned Australian champions and will then be invited to the World Finals at a real Formula 1 Grand Prix somewhere in the world.

Previous world finals have been held in Abu Dhabi, Singapore, Texas and Kuala Lumpur.

The team members from Phoenix and Prismatic must be commended for the effort and commitment they have put in to be part of this competition and Adelaide High School are very proud of their achievements.

STATE INDOOR CRICKET FINALS On Tuesday, September 12, the AHS cricket students competed in the Open Boys’ and Open Girls’ Indoor Cricket State Finals.

The boys team played 3 games and won all 3 by a comfortable margin to be crowned State Champions for the 3rd year in a row.

Well done to Euan Fletcher (Captain) and the other 7 students: Suraj Rajesh, Manush Patel, Darcy Hunkin, Samyak Jain, Erik Carrington, Sam Scrimgeour and Tyson Miller. It was great that we had one Year 11, six Year 10s and one Year 9 competing in an open competition.

Well done lads.

The girls also played 3 games. After losing the first game to Windsor Gardens, they had a hard final 2 games against Modbury (who they accounted for easily), and then faced the undefeated Nuriootpa in the last game, needing to beat them to have any chance of being

State Champions. After a terrific start with the bat, the bowling and fielding from the girls was exceptional and they ended up winning by 70 runs to claim the school’s 1st State Championship in Girls’ Indoor Cricket for 9 years! Well done to Rachel Church, Rebekah Frisby-Smith, Kelsey Rees, Conni Vlass (Year 10), Ella Stuart (9), Quillen Economou (11), Cassidy Perkins and Olivia Mulvany (8). A terrific performance by the youngest team by far on the day. The girls all developed and learned so quickly, adapting their prodigious talents from other sports to the cricketing field. A special well done to James DuPreez, Riki Boschma and Georgia Iannella (all injured cricketers) who assisted in coaching the girls on the day. Well done also to Mr Hopton as Teacher in Charge. Another 2 State titles to go to the trophy cabinet.

5 TOURNAMENT OF MINDS Tournament of Minds (TOM) is a problem-solving program for teams of students in the primary to secondary years. This is always a day that students work hard towards and look forward to.

This year, for the first time, we entered three teams. Two teams decided to do the Social Sciences challenge - INSPIRE-ational, and the third team decided on the Engineering Mathematics challenge - A One Way Trip. The INSPIRE-ational challenge dealt with global overcrowding of a new colony on an artificial island and the creation of a new civilisation from two existing cultures, eg Canada and Spain. The idea was to promote partnership, understanding and new connections between countries which previously had been separate. A One Way Trip involved having to build a lottery machine that randomly delivered a subset of numbered balls to choose the candidates out of over a million people for a one-way trip to Mars. The machine needed to have a secret modification, not easily

detected, to improve the odds of selection of preferred candidates.

All teams participated in a Spontaneous challenge, which can be quite scary for the students as the question is unseen prior to the time they go in the room.

The students all had a good, if frantic, time making props and costumes out of recycled materials, getting scripts written and forms filled in. Parents were extremely supportive and it was good to see so many there at the presentations.

Well done to all teams – they all worked within the spirit of TOM and were an example to the school.

The students were delighted when Ms Green, the Principal, asked them to join her for lunch to celebrate their involvement.

OPERATION FLINDERS Ten courageous boys were given the opportunity of a lifetime to participate in Operation Flinders, a camp designed to bring out the strength of students and improve their leadership skills, confidence and work ethic. After a 9 hour bus trip to Yankannina Station, the boys, accompanied by Mr Place and Ms Rozaklis, walked 100 kilometres in seven days. The conditions were tough; students were required to carry their backpacks, eat a very limited diet, endure the trialing weather conditions and face their fears. With no amenities, the group learnt new life skills and the boys stepped up to help each other out and achieve a successful outcome.

It was a privilege to see the group improve. Sam consistently walked

well while Luca always had a smile and kind word to offer his teammates. Zac offered his support to the group and Trey excelled on Mt Rose. While Anthony and Finn were able to change their mindset and motivate themselves to complete the walk, Jakob completed the mission with ease. Vasili’s leadership skills were highlighted and Dekoda carried two backpacks to help out his peers.

Although suffering from blisters and cut feet, Oscar endured the walk and completed the 100km without complaint.

Operation Flinders was a fantastic experience for all involved.

NATIONAL HPE DAY Well done to all the Middle School students who joined in the National HPE Day 1Km challenge on Wednesday, September 6, celebrating sunsmart, healthy eating and physical activity.

Students were allowed to wear their PE uniform all day to help celebrate National HPE Day and even though it was a cold day, almost every Middle School student participated and received points for their House. Extra points were given for participants who completed the course quickly (first 100), brought a hat (sunsmart) or walked the course eating a piece of fruit (healthy eating).

Results for the event were: 1st: Morriss – 387 points 2nd: Macghey – 358 points 3rd: West – 296 points 4th: Adey – 259 points Congratulations go to 8V133 with the highest individual class score with 62 points.

YEAR 8 HOUSE NETBALL COMPETITION This year the Stage 1 Health class organised and conducted a lunchtime interhouse Netball competition during September. The focus was to engage as many interested Year 8 students as possible in physical activity, in a social, interactive and slightly competitive environment where boys and girls could work together as teams.

The Year 11 students visited classes and explained the initiative to the various Year 8 Pastoral Care groups, providing details with regards to the format and timelines.

Each team was to play the other teams once and on the final day the two top teams were to play off for positions one and two with the next two teams playing off for third and fourth. The wet weather

Adelaide High School Newsletter

held off long enough for the program to be completed over four consecutive days.

The students involved represented their Houses well and obviously had fun, cheered on by the large number of spectators who appreciated their efforts. Congratulations to all involved, including the Pastoral Care teachers who supported this initiative.

Final placings were: 1st Adey 2nd Macghey 3rd West 4th Morriss Mr George Evreniadis | Teacher of Health & Physical Education

7 LAVAZZA ITALIAN FILM FESTIVAL Students of Italian in Years 9 and 10 recently attended two school screenings of the 2016 comedy film, Troppo Napoletano (From Naples, With Love) at Palace Nova Eastend, 251 Rundle St. For many students, it was the first time they had been to this cinema and the first time they had seen a foreign film on the big screen. The film was in Italian and Neapolitan dialect, with English subtitles.

The students enjoyed viewing the film and, after the excursion, they were keen to discuss the themes and various cultural aspects portrayed with skill and humour. We revisited dialects and how

important they are in contemporary Italy and our local community.

We also listened to some of the songs which were either mentioned or used in the film.

We appreciate parent support in allowing students to experience such rich learning opportunities as part of our vibrant languages program.

SHOEBOXES PACKED WITH CARE FOR LESS FORTUNATE Around 150 care packages have been packed by Year 8-12 students from Adelaide High School as part of their pastoral care program which focuses on philanthropy.

The packages - which are filled with items such as pencils, sharpeners, crayons, exercise books. skipping ropes, toys, hats and T-shirts will be sent to children around the world who are less fortunate.

There are 15 pastoral care groups and each group will fill l0 boxes which will cost $9 each to post - so they are also fundraising for that.

Teacher Mark Mcleod says the program is helping the students learn the importance of international mindedness, empathy and respect towards others.

“Our school has a large multicultural cohort and so our students are always learning how to be part of a unified yet diverse linguistic and cultural community,” he says.

The care packages are run by Operation Christmas Child and last year’s effort saw 115 boxes sent to Cambodia.

ZAHRA FOUNDATION GALA On Saturday, September 2, several staff members, parents of Adelaide High School, our ex Principal, Anita Zocchi, and representatives of the student leadership attended the Zahra Foundation Gala at the Convention Centre.

The Zahra Foundation supports fundraising and awareness raising against domestic violence. The Foundation is an initiative of the Abrimazedah family, whose youngest daughter, Anita, attended Adelaide High School until 2015. Her mother was Zahra.

On behalf of the school, I want to thank everyone who attended and contributed to the Adelaide High presence there. I’m certain it was appreciated by Anita and the rest of the Abrimazedah family. Thanks

in particular to Mhyles Hintural and Caitlin Hedger, who were able to be there at such late notice, and who represented the student body in an impeccable way.

Thanks to Karen Viedt, who taught Anita at Adelaide High School and also happened to teach Atena and Arman back in the day.

Thanks also to parents, Judy Bowden and Brian Gilchrist, to Sarah Jones who organised a whole table of 10 to attend, to Tarnya Van Driel and to David Doherty and our former principal, Anita Zocchi, who got this whole ball rolling two years ago.

It was a great way for Adelaide High School to show our support.

JOBEX will be held on Friday 10 and Saturday 11 November at the Adelaide Convention Centre’s newly launched East Wing from 10am – 5pm each day. It will feature over one hundred of the State’s leading businesses, spanning the five growing sectors of Defence and Shipbuilding, Health and Research, Energy and Mining, IT and Hi-tech, and Tourism, Food and Wine. Exhibitors will include: Lockheed Martin, Naval Group, Bionomics, SAHMRI, Tesla, BHP, Maptek, Fleet Space Technologies, SkyCity Casino and Costa Group.

Representatives from tertiary institutions will be available to guide participants through how best to prepare for a job in one of these growth sectors. It is also suitable for people who are searching for a new job or considering a career change. Participants can also book in for practical sessions from recruitment specialists who will offer tips on customising a CV and performing well at job interviews.

JOBEX is a free event but anyone intending to go will need to register to receive an e-ticket to gain access to a single or multiple JOBEX events. To register visit https://jobex.sa.gov.au/adelaide/.

There are over 30 seminars and workshops, led by industry thought leaders, which participants can select to attend. Details on speakers, seminars, workshops and demonstrations will be launched soon. Subscribers to the site can also keep up-to-date with announcements.

Current VET students in Years 10 – 12 The students who have arranged with me to carry out Structured Work Placements during the October school holidays, as part of the compulsory requirements for their purchased VET courses, will be contacted by an Adelaide High School staff member whilst they are on placement. They are reminded to update their Log Book as they complete their placements.

I am still promoting short courses - Barista and Responsible Service of Alcohol (or RSA) - for Term 4, so please ask your son / daughter to see me for the latest vacancies and information. RSA can only be done by students who are 18 years or almost 18 years.

2018 VET enquiries and enrolments Several Years 9 – 11 have already enrolled in a purchased VET courses in 2018. Those full year courses are Certificate I Construction (Plumbing), Certificate II Electronics and Certificate III Business, Certificate III Hospitality, Certificate II Automotive Servicing Technology (which takes three semesters) and Certificate II Salon Assistant.

but most of the others are more suitable for seniors as a very high commitment level is required, as well as (in most cases) the completion of work placement.

Apart from Certificate III Business and Certificate III Hospitality mentioned above, other possibilities include: • Certificate III Fitness (which includes First Aid) • Certificate III Lab Skills • Certificate III Early Childhood Education and Care (which requires a DCSI clearance and includes First Aid) • Certificate III Music Industry Some full year courses that our students are currently doing or have done in recent years which generate Stage 1 credits, include: • Certificate II Kitchen Operations • Certificate II Retail Cosmetics • Certificate II Construction • Certificate II Electro-technology (Career Start) Other highly popular semester courses include: • 3D Games Design • Digital Photography • Event Management (which can be topped up in Semester 2 to a full Certificate III Hospitality) • partial Certificate III Make Up and Skin Care There is more information in the 2018 AHS Curriculum Handbook.

I emailed Years 9 – 11 students the 2018 Eastern Adelaide Schools Cluster offerings. There is a cost for the family associated with every course. Invoices will be generated by Adelaide High School once your child’s course is confirmed. These courses fill on a first in, first served basis, so I am keen to help students who are wanting to secure a position to avoid disappointment.

Beauty Therapy The Heather Langdon Academy of Beauty, located at 181 Gilles St, is Adelaide’s oldest private nationally accredited College of Beauty Therapy. Visit www.heatherlangtoncom.au for more information. I have been asked to let you know that they are conducting an Open Day on Saturday, 28 October from 10am to 2pm for any students who will be leaving school soon to study Beauty Therapy or who are keen to study a Certificate III Beauty accredited course at night whilst at school. If you and your child would like to attend the Open Day, please call Kirsten on 82236522 or email info@heatherlangton. com.au.

Please contact me if you have any queries or ask your son / daughter to make a time to see me.

My office is in The Help Hub, but the best way to contact me if via email livia.daloia@adelaidehs.sa.edu.au.

Ms Livia D’Aloia | Student Pathways Coordinator

I also have booked students into Stage 2 Aviation Studies at Glenunga International High School, which is not a VET course, but a SACE school subject attracting 20 Stage 2 credits.

I am eager to enrol more students currently in Years 9 – 11 in VET and to finalise enrolments for those students who have made enquiries and are keen to go ahead with their chosen course.

Remember that most full Certificate III courses can allow students to earn SACE credits (at Stage 2) and contribute to the generation of their ATAR. Some courses can be done by Year 10 students,
