Leave Mr Johnston is currently on sick leave and will be

returning in week 1 of Term 3 and we wish him well

on his recovery I have the pleasure of taking his

place as Principal for this time My most rewarding

aspect of this role is seeing the outstanding work

our students and staff are involved in Below is a

snapshot of activities that are continuing in our

school and all of this has been jammed into a nine

week term as well

Assessments This term we had Year 12 students completing

their EST assessments as directed by SCSA which

then flowed in to the Year 1112 exam week

Studentsrsquo behaviour during the exam week was

outstanding and now results are being analysed

and advice given to students Congratulations to

students who have performed admirably Year 12

students need to be conscious that they have

effectively one term of secondary schooling left

and need to work hard as well enjoy their final

term

Year 10 Subject Selection Our Year 10 Parent Evening was held on

Wednesday 6 June and was attended by more than

200 parents and students It was a very successful

evening where information was delivered and

questions answered In week 8 we commence the

one-on-one parentstudent teacher subject

selection process What is pleasing about the

Greenwood approach is that staff are assisting

students and parents in making selections for

2019 and students can make informed decisions

Thank you to all staff on the night of the Parent

Evening as well as the HASS dept who each year

assist in this complex process

Year 6 Parent Evening On Wednesday 13 June Ms Hamel organised a

Parent Information session for parents of

prospective Year 7 students in 2019 Feedback

from parents was that the presenters were

passionate about their subject areas as well as our

school Thank you to Ms Hamel for her

organisational skills staff who made presentations

and a special thank you to Mr John Smith the PampC

President who complemented the evening

perfectly

Physical Education With the concern surrounding childrenrsquos health I

am most pleased with Mr Guard and all the Phys

Ed staff who have worked hard to keep students

actively engaged in sport Activities have included

Year 7 9 10 Lightning Carnivals where

studentsrsquo behaviour has been exemplary

Netball carnivals

After school soccer football and netball

A special thank you to our non-physd teacher Mr

Gannaway who has assisted with the girlsrsquo soccer

team

Recycling Waste Greenwood College was recently visited by the

Minister for the Environment The Hon Mr Stephen

Dawson MLC and Mrs Jessica Stojkovski our local

MLA in relation to our waste management at the

College which has been co-ordinated by the

Science Dept and our Head of Science Mr Evans

Canteen Students and parents are encouraged to support

our canteen which offers a wide variety of cold and

hot foods from a constantly evolving menu each

term to accommodate student demands The

college community depends and benefits greatly

from the profits that are put back into the college

and used by the PampC to buy equipment for the

school

Reports Semester 1 reports for all year groups will be

issued to students on Thursday 28 June (second

last day of college) to take home Parents will be

able to receive further feedback from teachers next

term when we have the Parent Reporting Evening

on Wednesday 25 July

With the impending holidays upon us I would like to

take this opportunity to wish all students a safe

and happy two week break

Year 10 Counselling for Upper School in 2019 It has been pleasing to see the level of engagement from parents and students alike during the upper

school subject counselling process that has unfolded throughout this term Thank you to all that

attended the information evening An individual counselling interview has now been scheduled for all

Year 10 students and their parents Attendance at this interview is a crucial step is finalising course

selections for the commencement of Year 11 Students and their families are once again reminded that

teacher recommendations are made with the intent of guiding our students through Year 11 and 12

with the maximum opportunity to achieve their WACE and to transition into successful post-school

opportunities

Year 9 Elective Selections for Year 10 2019 All Year 9 students have received a Year 10 elective handbook and selection sheet Please note that

selection sheets are due to be returned to the front office by Friday 22 June Elective selections for Year

10 are year-long Students should consider their preferences carefully as changes at a later date cannot

always be accommodated Although every effort is made to provide students each of their first three

elective preferences timetabling considerations including the popularity of different choices may mean

this is not always the case

Year 11 and 12 Academic Tracking Following the semester one exam and reporting period an academic review of all Year 11 and 12 ATAR

and General students is underway Greenwood College is keen to ensure that each of our Year 11 and

12 students is navigating a successful pathway through upper school We are particularly interested in

ensuring Year 11 students that have commenced on ATAR pathway have achieved positive semester

one results Students whose academic performance is of concern will be attending individual interviews

and in many cases parents will be invited to also attend Year 12 ATAR students are reminded to take

advantage of the many before and after school revision classes that are being offered by many of their

subject teachers

Year 12 Semester Two and WACE Exam Schedules Please be advised of the following examination windows for semester two Please be aware that an

ATAR course will not be contribute towards WACE achievement requirements unless the external WACE

exam (including the performanceoral component where relevant) is completed

A Police Rangers unit has operated at Greenwood College for more than sixteen

years Over that time the police officers running the unit have enabled many

students to develop their life skills and so become more effective members of the

community

At a time of parental dismay at the anti-social behaviour of some young people the work of the Police

Rangers provides a useful way of channelling young peoplersquos energies in a positive direction Important

ideals of loyalty duty and service are central to the ethos of the Rangers

There are many recreational activities provided by the Rangers and they have been arranged so that

students can proceed at their own pace Some of the activities involve drills radio communications

navigation community service leadership training camping and physical challenges Membership of

the Rangers is open to all students in Years 7-12

The Rangers meet at Greenwood College on Mondays during the school year from 4-6pm Inquiries

City of Joondalup Mobile Youth Truck

The City of Joondalup has kindly offered Greenwood College the use of their Mobile Youth Truck every

second Thursday during lunchtimes for Term 2 The Youth Truck is a free mobile youth service for young

people aged 11-18 years old The Truck offers two qualified youth workers a kitchenette lounge

gaming TV and two unicycles These facilities aid the City of Joondalup in providing an inclusive

environment for young people and allow them to provide workshops skills building and personal

development

So far the weather has been very kind and our students have enjoyed themselves especially when the

inflatable mat was brought out (see picture below)

Winter Uniform

We are now heading into the wet and windy season Students have a responsibility to ensure that as

they walk out the front door of their home each morning they are in 100 full Greenwood College

uniform Girls can wear either navy blue or skin coloured stockings

Leggings are not allowed nor are beanies and ugg boots Scarves are definitely allowed but must also

be either plain navy blue or plain white or preferably a Greenwood College scarf available from the

uniform shop

All uniform worn must have the Greenwood College logo Any other type of clothing is not permitted

There will no doubt be very cold mornings this winter and the expectation is that students will arrive to

school warm but only wearing our uniform

Parents are reminded that the Uniform Shop has plenty of stock at the moment and it would be a good

idea to get in quick and buy the jumpers jackets needed to keep their child(ren) warm while at school

A school always looks much better when every student is wearing full uniform

Attendance To date over 30 students in Years 11 and 12 this year have chosen to leave school Reasons always

vary Most students apply for TAFE or jobs before they decide to leave school This is the preferred

outcome Some have been offered a place at TAFE some have found full time employment and some

are still looking Attending school in Years 11 and 12 is compulsory and a legal requirement Parents

carers must be aware that if their child chooses to leave school a process is undertaken Greenwood

College will submit a referral to the Participation Directorate requesting assistance

The Participation Team The Participation Team provides a transitional support service across all Public Catholic and

Independent schools to ensure all young people make successful transitions and participate in an

approved option in relation to the Raised Leaving Age Legislation

The options available under a Notice of Arrangements (NOA) for students in the final two years of their

compulsory education period - typically Years 11 and 12 aged students are to

attend school

enrol in an accredited course at a private Registered Training Organisation (RTO) or a public RTO

(formerly TAFEWA) or

attend an approved Community Based Course or

undertake an Apprenticeship or Traineeship or

gain employment in an approved job or

undertake a combination of the above

Students will always be encouraged to remain at school and complete either Year 11 or 12 Students

that enrol in TAFE at the beginning of the year or mid-year will be monitored by a Participation

Coordinator Same applies if a student commences full-time employment Leaving school and not

engaging in further education or employment is not a viable or accepted option

If your child (if in Years 11 or 12) is contemplating leaving school please contact either myself (9243

9238) or Fiona Gatey (9243 9213)

Attendance Heroes Drum roll helliphelliphelliphelliphelliphelliphelliphelliphelliphellip

The semester 1 Attendance Competition was won by the Year 7s with an

attendance percentage of 95 which was slightly better than the Year 8s with

92 That is a seriously commendable result for the year 7s and Ms Cook Third

place was taken by the Year 11s with 92 followed by the 9s and 10s on 91

and finally the 12s on 88 Well done to the students and to the respective Year

Coordinators Perhaps there will be a sausage sizzle as a reward

Sarah Asher Very sadly we had to say goodbye recently to Sarah Asher

our absolutely brilliant Student Support Officer Sarah has

worked at Greenwood College for nearly three years and in

that time she has had such a positive impact on this

school She has changed the lives of many of our young

people and is held in exceptionally high regard by staff

parents and most importantly students In 28 years of

education I have never seen a farewell to a staff member

like the one Sarah received As you can see by the photo

Sarah took home many gifts and many many cards

Sarah has left a wonderful legacy from her time here She is embarking on a new career

with Anglicare and we wish her all the best You will be missed Sarah

At Greenwood College we are busy focusing on our present Year 10 students and their subject

selections for their final years at Greenwood as well as directing Year 12 students towards their

pathways from school in to the world of work training and study With this in mind students should be

exploring industries and career pathways In this newsletter I will be detailing relevant and engaging

resources suitable for students at the College

Australiarsquos population is changing The population is getting older more females are in paid work and

the number of school aged children is growing Demand is likely to grow for aged care childcare home

based care and education services

Housing construction investment in infrastructure (like roads railways and airports)

tourism activity and the international education sector are expected to stay strong

The number and type of job openings available in the future will depend on things

like

turnover (workers leaving their job to do things like study move to another job

care for a family member retire or travel)

demand for goods and services

demand for resources

changes in technology

Industry Outlook

Over the 5 years to 2022 the department expects the largest job growth will be in

Health Care and Social Assistance

Professional Scientific and Technical Services

Construction

By 2022 there will probably be fewer jobs in

Manufacturing

Electricity Gas Water and Waste Services

Agriculture Forestry and Fishing

These are important industries and turnover will provide opportunities for workers with the right skills

Some parts of these industries (like Food Product Manufacturing) are expected to

grow

Career Outlook

The department expects there will be many new jobs for Professionals Community

and Personal Service Workers Some of the jobs expected to grow the most are

Registered Nurses

Aged and Disabled Carers

Accountants

Electricians

Some jobs need more training now than they used to (like Child Carers in day care centres) and most of

the new jobs created over the next few years will be higher skilled There are millions of lower skilled

jobs and these can be rewarding careers or pathways to other jobs

Employer needs can change quickly Workers who are willing to learn gain experience and build their

skills will be well placed to find and keep a job

Snapshots of many key industries provide information on salaries in related jobs employment trends in

the industry and what type of work you can expect if you pursue a career in the area Access this link

and explore relevant and up to date information regarding a variety of elements from salary training

and industry growth Over 30 Industries are detailed

wwwgraduatecareerscomaucareerplanningandresourcesexploringyourcareeroptionscareerprofiles

On the Greenwood College immediate front we have many opportunities arising for our students to

complete further training Presently a wealth of opportunities are being offered to students for delivery

at TAFE and other providersrsquo sites for one day a week commencing in 2019 Please keep an eye on the

daily notices and ask your student to continue to visit Ms Gatey for further training opportunities

Hi again Year 8s

This term has been a very busy term and is coming to an end We have had the

Lightning Carnival earlier in the term in which students tried their very best in

Soccer Basketball Netball and Volleyball The PE department were very pleased with how we

represented the school We were also very glad to have a long weekend break after working very hard

for that part of the term

Recently we had Elevate Education visit us and give us a talk called Junior Time Management in which

we learnt about how to balance our personal time with our study and homework We were also

rewarded with a sausage sizzle from Miss Arns and the Student Services team for our hard work this

term

Coming up in week 8 we have our Zero2hero week This week is all about supporting the charity called

Zero2hero which raises money for suicide prevention and was created by an ex-Greenwood student

Throughout the week Student Services have organised special

events such as mechanical bull and an obstacle course and a big

assembly on the Friday

As well as this we have Music Camp in week 8 and a HASS

excursion to Kings Park As you can tell

this is an incredibly busy week In week

9 we are being given our Semester One

Reports hopefully everyone has tried

their best this semester

After all this we have HOLIDAYS

In week 6 students from 41 42 and 43 went on an excursion to the State

Library and the Art Gallery of WA There were 41 of us so we split up into two

groups Each group had a session in the library and in the art gallery

In the Art Gallery we had to search for works of Art using clues and then write down what we saw and

what we thought In the library we attended a session called lsquoFun With Fairytalesrsquo We used ipads to

take photos for fairytales we have been studying Back at school we are using the Book Creator app on

the ipads to retell our fairytale with our photos We all know our fairytales very well now

Students from 31 32 33 and 34 went on an excursion to Caversham Wildlife Park in week 7 They

saw lots of Australian native animals and had a great day out

On 28 June students from the 4s classes will be graduating We are looking forward to the ceremony

and the excursion to bowling Some students will be moving to new schools and we hope they will stay

in touch with the friends they have made at Greenwood

Term 2 started off well with all the Year 7s finally settling into high school

Everyone knows each other and is getting along well In Week 5 it was the

Year 7 Lighting Carnival We had to choose from the sports Netball Volleyball

Soccer and Football and most sports competed against other schools We started training in week 2

with every sport and health lesson spent playing our selected sports Everyone was excited for the

carnival and played to the best of their abilities with two Netball teams placing 3rd in their Division

Overall it was a great day and everyone had fun

As we are coming to the end of Term 2 everyone is eager for the holidays to arrive So far College has

been amazing and we canrsquot wait to see what happens next

Hi guys This is the second newsletter for the year so far Itrsquos the end of week 7

and a lot has happened Letrsquos outline a few of the eventshellip (Probably not in

chronological order though)

Up first NAPLAN What a nerve-racking week There was a lot of grumbling and

groaning but I think we were all glad to be rid of the tests the next week Unfortunately for us the Big

Science Competition was on the same week More stress am I right But soon all the tests were over and

done with thank goodness for that

The Year 9s were also visited by Mr Luke Kennedy He came to talk to us about the effect labels can have

on us and that these labels donrsquot define us We really hope that every Year 9 present took his words to

heart Also this term the Year 9 Outdoor Education classes went to Rottnest The 9s had a heap of fun

fishing and biking Unfortunately for them though the water was rough and more than a few people were

sick After Rottnest came the School Sports Netball Carnival There were a lot of Year 9 girls participating

and they all had a great time playing against the top schools wining some and losing some The Division

1 team (a group of Year 9s10s) even came first in their division They will be participating in the finals

rounds in Fremantle later on this term

Last but not least the Lightning Carnival The Year 9 Lightning Carnival was yesterday the fourteenth All

the Year 9s participated and had a great fun-filled and enjoyable day The sports that were played were

Volleyball Basketball Netball Football and Soccer The Year 9s played at a range of different venues with

supporters on all sides This yearrsquos carnival was the second last wersquoll ever have and were all really sad

But wersquoll definitely make the most of our last Lightning Carnival next year

Well thatrsquos it for this term Itrsquos only a nine week term but it has been packed So much stuff has

happened some of it fun some of it not so much But wersquore all thoroughly enjoying this term so far and

Irsquom sure when we check in next term wersquoll have lots more to tell

Weve just had our immunisations against Meningococcal and have been

hard at work preparing for the year ahead of us We also have many

upcoming events such as an Interschool Sports Carnival a Drama

performance and the River Cruise

Meningococcal is a hard word to say and an even harder one to spell honestly who even names these

diseases Anyway the Year 10s had our immunisations against it so we most likely wont even have to

care how to say it or spell it For some this needle was their worst nightmare for others it was just a

free lolly and some skipped class time Either way it is over now so we can breathe a sigh of relief

Year 11 and 12 are very crucial years in a studentrsquos schooling so there needs to be a lot of preparation

to ensure theyre done right As Year 10 students going into Year 11 we have been in the process of

selecting our Year 11 subjects We have read the booklets of information about our upcoming subjects

and what they have to offer received our recommendations from our teachers for subjects next year

and had multiple meetings about it all The whole process ends on 22 June when our subject selection

sheets our due into the front office Before then many students and their parents will attend a

counselling session with a designated counsellor to go through their choices on their subject

recommendation sheets What is with all the preparation though Well the school wants us to be

prepared for Year 11 and 12 to ensure we can achieve our WACE (Western Australian Certificate of

Education) and allow for the smoothest transition into upper school ATAR students will most likely

attend university General students will either attend TAFE or seek alternative entrance to university

and Foundation students will most likely be seeking immediate employment in the workforce This all

sounds very scary and sudden but that is why we have lots and lots of preparation Just remember

kids it will be okay

Coming up is our Interschool Sports Carnival where the Greenwood Year 10s compete against Year

10s from various other schools Therell be laughter smiles sweat and maybe even some blood letrsquos

hope not Were sure itll be a fun day for everyone Good luck guys

By the time this article goes to print the Year 10 Drama productions would have concluded Currently

the Year 10 Drama students have been hard at work rehearsing and preparing a compilation of 10

minute plays for everyonersquos enjoyment The production starts on 25 June in the Drama room The

leadership group and Mr Bassanelli have been hard at work planning our Year 10 River Cruise At this

stage it is looking like being held next term in week 7 It is the one and only scheduled social event for

all the Year 10s and should be a fun night

Thank you all for reading Have a nice rest of your term enjoy your holidays and be nice to your mums

First and for most we would like to congratulate Taylor Waterson on achieving a

great milestone in her Rugby career She has represented WA in Women`s Rugby

both league and union for the Western Force She achieved this while juggling Year

12 ATAR and other school commitments We are very proud to have Taylor as a member of our year

group and we look forward to watching her succeed in the years to come

On another light note Zero2hero day is on Friday 22 June It is a mental health charity that was

founded by an ex-greenwood student and it now runs successfully at a variety of schools across Perth

The charities and the schools that run a Zero2hero day over the years have done a great job at raising

awareness and providing support to those of us that struggle with mental illness This year we are

keeping this tradition alive by extending a day of activities to a week ending on Friday with a whole

school assembly and a free dress day

It will be an especially good day for the Music students who embark on their quest to spread their

talents to the four corners of Perth

To end off we would like to remind Year 12 students about the Leaverrsquos Assembly Committee that will

meet on Monday lunch-times to create the most entertaining assembly of the year All are encouraged

to come and contribute to the last piece of our legacy

Hello all as another exciting term at Greenwood College comes to a close we have

new events exclusive to Year 11s coming up early next semester

Firstly to recap the past 9 weeks ATAR students have sat exams which posed as a

great introduction to our following senior years For those who are disappointed with

their result donrsquot stress there is plenty of time to improve before the second set of exams and for those

who did well keep up the incredible work efforts and keep striving for success Congratulations to

everyone

To all the musosrsquo your camp is just around the corner Enjoy your time in the beautiful Swan Valley

canrsquot wait to hear about it on your return Reminder to those interested in attending the Winter Concert

will be held on the Sunday and the camp in the Swan Valley

As we are sure you are all aware this week is Zero2hero week The whole week is to be filled with

communal activities that are sure to spread the positive vibes At the end of the week for our whole

school assembly we have some very special guests attending and trust us you do not want miss them

Finally the night we have all been waiting for - the Year 11 Formal As it is approaching much quicker

than we all thought We suggest you start looking for an outfit now donrsquot forget to dress to impress

Save the date 16 August - more information will be released soon

In the meantime from your Year 11 councillors we hope you enjoy your well-earned two week break

that is rapidly approaching Enjoy yourself stay safe and we will see you again after the break

Helping your child build healthy relationships Every day we interact with many other people You may not like them or agree with them but everyone deserves respect

Parents play an important role in assisting children and young people to build self-respect This leads to the development

of the values and skills needed to express respect to others There may be some variation in what represents respectful

behaviors across different cultures However in any cultural context respect is about behaviors that convey valuing and

caring about another person Helping your child develop the following skills will help them to form healthy respectful

relationships with peers and adults

Understanding and empathy Encourage your child to think about how another person may feel about something

Empathic listening Teach them to listen and show they understand another personrsquos point of view

Anger Management In times of conflict encourage them to think first before speaking stay calm and avoid hurtful

reactions

Conflict resolution Disagreements are normal in any relationship Itrsquos helpful to teach your child that to work

through a problem by understanding another personrsquos point of view To achieve a compromise or agreement is

better than winning an argument that leaves the other person feeling bullied hurt or embarrassed

Problem-solving and decision making skills Rather than you offering solutions for your childrsquos problems hold back

and support your child to generate a few possible solutions themselves Encourage them to think about the impact

of each option on themselves and others before deciding on their action

Honesty In a relationship where there is trust and acceptance there should be no reason to lie and honesty should

be encouraged

Assertiveness Help your child to learn how to stand up for themselves or to speak up about their values or needs in

a way that is non-confrontational and still respects others

On Tuesday 29 May 31 members of the Greenwood College

Vocal Ensemble went on a short excursion to Edith Cowan

University in Mount Lawley and to the Western Australian

Academy of Performing Arts Every Tuesday during the university

semester the Classical Department puts on a lunchtime concert

at 110pm Sometimes there are visiting artists Sometimes

there are local ones Sometimes there are the university

students themselves On this occasion we were treated to a

spectacular performance by Eneksis Vocal Ensemble led by Michael McCarthy one of Australias

leading specialists in Aural training in particular through the methods laid down by Zoltan Kodaly The

ensemble performed a dazzling array of pieces by Taverner Rheinberger Part Busto Biebl and others

in 4 5 6 8 and 10 part harmony all to a very high standard and all with the utmost dedication to

precision detail and expressive effect At the close of the concert more than one student commented

that some of the harmonies had given them goosebumps They were both surprised and inspired by this

particular effect We often hear about how music and sound can influence the human body but we

d o n t a l w a y s f i n d

ourselves quite so aware

of this experience After a

short afternoon tea the

students then made their

way back to the College in

time for their usual

rehearsal after school Im

so very pleased that the

students enjoyed this

special performance and

look forward to similar

outings in the future

On Friday 15 June the students and staff of the Music Department held it annual Term 2 lunchtime

Amphitheatre Rock Band Concert The Year 11 and Year 12 students of the Certificate II class were

tasked with setting up the ever increasing array of equipment required for these kinds of events Itrsquos

difficult to get these items placed on stage in time to perform let alone connected up working and

sounding as they should It requires considerable preparation and practice on the part of the students

as well as a willingness to sacrifice ones own lunch break for

the entertainment of the school There are always issues to

overcome in order to put this event on The students did an

excellent job under the circumstances First up were the Year

10-12 Senior Rock Band The Nameless with Hysteria Our

second item was presented by the Year 9-10 Intermediate

Rock Band Legacy with Rain Our third and fourth items

were presented by the Year 7-9 Junior Rock Bands Fire amp Ice

and Capacity performing Wild Thing and Better than

Revenge respectively The event serves to entertain the

students of the College as well as create a date that the

ensembles must be prepared for before then embarking on

the annual Primary School Music Tour The lunchtime concert

was very well attended with few seats spare around the

Amphitheatre My thanks to Mr Swain and Mrs Pattison the

ensembles directors for their hard work dedication and

willingness to go above and beyond to prepare our students

for these performances I am very proud of our students work

and look forward to showcasing their talents at Goollelal and

Halidon Primary School on Friday 22 June

CONGRATULATIONS to our Greenwood College Year 12 student NICHOLAS FANTINI who has won a photo

competition of an important Australian magazine Photoreview

The article is published in Photoreview magazine of June 2018 see the

relative pages attached

The winning photos are masterful images of two adventurous Latin

America destinations Laguna Colorada in Bolivia and Bloody Red Lake

in the mountains of Chile The waters of these two lagoons have intense

orange hue which is contrasting amazingly with the landscape

With the World Cup in full swing it would be fair to say that Soccer has never been so popular at

Greenwood College The 2018 season saw the school field 3 Teams Senior Boys u18rsquos that are led by

Dale Gannaway with the intermediate boys (u16) and Senior Girls (u18) being coached by yours truly

The biggest group we had by far was the intermediate boys We had too many for one team but not quite

enough for two which proves that there is a huge demand for the sport here Senior Girls had a mix of

junior and more experienced players while the Senior Boys has mostly experienced players with some

debutants stepping up from last years intermediate boys team

The Senior Girls had some brilliant moments in their season

Captained by Raquyah Hameed they showed some real promise in

their first game despite going down 3-0 to Duncraig SHS Their

second game against Carine SHS was far better with more

possession and shots on goal but neither team was able to break

the deadlock and the girls walked away with their first points with 0

-0 draw A forfeit from Mater Dei gave the girls their first win but

their best game was their last game against Quinns Baptist College

The Girls lost 4-1 to them last year however this time around lead

the game 1-0 right into the second half when a mixture of fatigue

as well as a heavy dose rain saw Quinns score 2 quick goals to win the match 2-1 Our standout players

throughout the season were Chelsea Downes Asha Malde and Jacinta and Isobel Boyce

The Intermediate Boys had another tough season however the

score lines were remarkably smaller than last season A crunching

7-1 loss to Ashdale followed by a narrow 2-1 loss to Shenton

showed the boys were improving Their last game against

Churchlands was very tight in the first half with multiple chances

on goal in the first half but somehow not finding the back of the

net The second half saw Churchlands run away with a 6-0 win

Honourable mentions go to Milad Safari Jigme Dorji and Atanas

Atanasav

The Senior Boys had a mixed season They started well with a resounding 3-0 win over St Stephens the

following week saw a narrow loss to Mater Dei despite the boys playing some brilliant soccer A forfeit

from Quinns gave them a 3-0 win on paper and they needed to win their recent clash with Balga SHS to

keep their finals hopes alive Sadly despite some valiant efforts from the likes of OT Mbafumoja Regis

Gatambiye Ahmed Omer and Aaron Deeks it wasnrsquot enough with Balga taking a 2-0 win There is one

more game left in the group stage which will be an away game on 25 June against Duncraig SHS

Despite our season earlier than we normally would like you can still enjoy the World Cup

The Year 9 Outdoor Education class set out on a fishing expedition to Rottnest island on Thursday

31 May The class spent weeks preparing for the expedition learning how to set up rigs tie knots

cast out and how to snag a big one The week leading up to Rottnest had high anticipation

throughout the class the question was ldquowho was going to get the biggest catchrdquo

As the morning arrived a dark and cold chill shivered through everyone ldquooh wait thatrsquos just the

weatherrdquo A storm had decided to hit the Perth coast in full force and provided not only challenging

fishing conditions but a crazy boat ride over The weather didnrsquot seem to dampen the morale of the

class although the boat ride would soon change this You know itrsquos a good start to a boat ride when

they hand you a sick bag as you boardhelliphellip

As we left Hillaryrsquos harbour there was laughter and jokes getting thrown around until the boat

stepped out into the ocean swell and the only thing that was getting thrown around were screams from

students and the odd little vomit Some thought this was the end With the skill of the Captain or just

luck of the draw we landed safe on the island With the crazy ride over there was a sigh of relief ldquoyayrdquo

fishing time

We had keen fishermen on our hands We delegated the fishing gear out and started our trek by foot

our destinationmdash the Army jetty The fish were about to get a shock

As we arrived it was still pouring with rain and down to 10 degrees but this didnrsquot stop any ldquooutdoor

eagersrdquo With the likes of AJ no shoes no jumper and just shorts he was running to the water to get

first cast and have the chance of bragging rights for the first catch Within minutes there wasnrsquot a ldquodryrdquo

seat in the house with all students out wetting a line

Moral was high although it was a slow start to the day The only thing getting reeled in was seaweed or a

cold BANG Harry Burt is on The rod has a big bend to it and it looks to be a big onehellip hold onhellip waithellip

what is that thing ldquoSir I caught someonersquos underwearrdquo Well at least we werenrsquot going home empty

handed

With the first catch being a pair of underwear things were starting to look south The class kept at it

battling the weather they started to hit the target The fish were biting and the race was on The fish

started to get pulled in and the smiles and bragging rights started to flow The rain still coming down

sideways in buckets While Mr Tippet Mrs Tkachenko and Mr Gillespie tackled the weather with the

students Mr Walczak kept cosy under the shelter with his knitted blanket and gloves With the fishing

coming to an end Jayden was crowned Champion Angler with a total count of 12 fish Despite the

protest from Harry with his imaginary 10ft snapper that magically got away

With the gear packed up it was time to start the hike back to the boat With the boat ride we had

coming to Rottnest I think the return boat ride was on everyonersquos thoughts With a small debrief of the

day and a bit of free time to go get some food we boarded the boat and set sail for Hillaryrsquos boat

harbour The ride home was smooth sailing as the wind was low and we had the swell on our side A

safe landing at the boat harbour had topped off the trip of on a good note and left everyone with plenty

of stories to tell

The 1st of June - day two of the Year 9s fishing expedition had commenced The sun was out spirits

were high and the sea was friendly to 50 of the class which managed to keep their breakfast in

In a lot of ways group oneday 1 and group twoday 2 were polar opposites The boat ride on the

second day was majestic compared to the ldquorollierdquo tides on day one Thunderstorms and heavy rain

one day - bright and sunny days on the next Day two students were blessed to say the least

Mr Bean kept those of who didnrsquot vomit entertained for the 40-45-minute trip with his timeless

humour Mr Gillespie tried working on his lesson plans but soon realised student numbers of sea

sickness was on the rise and other students were growing restless The seasick students were

quickly bundled upstairs to grab some fresh air with teachers to console them and their upset stomachs

Arriving at Rottnest the students were eager to replenish their recently empty stomachs putting Subway

and the local bakery into overdrive On a personal note the pies and pastries were an absolute dime

and are a MUST try After the students consumed the majority of Subwaysrsquo stock and took many selfies

with quokkas as physically possible we set out to acquire our sweet rides for the day

Mr Tippet refused Mr Gillespiersquos offer to take a tandem bike and was therefore designated the work

horse for the day and was given the trailer to cart around Mrs Tkachenko was the ever proficient and

gallant ldquopack leaderrdquo Mr Erwin the squad ldquomechanicmedicrdquo and Mr Gillespie was ldquochief motivatorall-

round utilityrdquo The students were responsible for their own equipment and had become giddy with

excitement once the sweet rides were obtained

We then set off to Salmon Bay to fish the sea dry There were ups and downs but there were more ups

then downshellip then we arrived Mr Erwinsrsquo skill as a bike technician came in handy multiple times on the

arduous journey while the students struggled to keep pace with the lightning fast Mrs Tkachenko Mr

Tippet took the fable of the tortoise and the hair very literally and kept a solid pace the entire way giving

his well-manicured legs a workout he would never forget

The word lsquoscenicrsquo comes to mind when reaching our destination with the lighthouse in the background

the sun beaming down the beautiful hilly terrain meeting the rocks and the tide gracefully touching the

sand with seaweed in massive clumps creating an interesting aroma Were we lucky to be fishing today

Now it was time for all the ground work done in class to rise to the occasion and begin fishing The girls

went off to a flying start and finished the day with a grand total of 37 fish Special mentions to Ella

Mason and Ashley Mathies who contributed ten fish between them and Marli Rabe who contributed with

a hefty four

Atanas Atanasoy caught the ldquoCATCH OF THE DAYrdquo - a 30cm Skippy which he took home for dinner

Sasha Babic and Rory Noonan had four each After the long glorious successful day we managed to

pack up without a hitch and ride back along the smooth road of Rottnest Except Mr Tippet (the work

horse) had to cart the supplies back with no help The students then tracked down the quokkas for more

selfies and finished their day with delicious pies and Subway before the setting sail back to the

motherland

Mr Bean managed to keep the extremely tired students entertained Their stomachs had settled we set

off once again having conquered Rottenest to our rear and dry land to our front In summary everyone

had a great day coming home wreaking of successful fishing

Leave Mr Johnston is currently on sick leave and will be

returning in week 1 of Term 3 and we wish him well

on his recovery I have the pleasure of taking his

place as Principal for this time My most rewarding

aspect of this role is seeing the outstanding work

our students and staff are involved in Below is a

snapshot of activities that are continuing in our

school and all of this has been jammed into a nine

week term as well

Assessments This term we had Year 12 students completing

their EST assessments as directed by SCSA which

then flowed in to the Year 1112 exam week

Studentsrsquo behaviour during the exam week was

outstanding and now results are being analysed

and advice given to students Congratulations to

students who have performed admirably Year 12

students need to be conscious that they have

effectively one term of secondary schooling left

and need to work hard as well enjoy their final

term

Year 10 Subject Selection Our Year 10 Parent Evening was held on

Wednesday 6 June and was attended by more than

200 parents and students It was a very successful

evening where information was delivered and

questions answered In week 8 we commence the

one-on-one parentstudent teacher subject

selection process What is pleasing about the

Greenwood approach is that staff are assisting

students and parents in making selections for

2019 and students can make informed decisions

Thank you to all staff on the night of the Parent

Evening as well as the HASS dept who each year

assist in this complex process

Year 6 Parent Evening On Wednesday 13 June Ms Hamel organised a

Parent Information session for parents of

prospective Year 7 students in 2019 Feedback

from parents was that the presenters were

passionate about their subject areas as well as our

school Thank you to Ms Hamel for her

organisational skills staff who made presentations

and a special thank you to Mr John Smith the PampC

President who complemented the evening

perfectly

Physical Education With the concern surrounding childrenrsquos health I

am most pleased with Mr Guard and all the Phys

Ed staff who have worked hard to keep students

actively engaged in sport Activities have included

Year 7 9 10 Lightning Carnivals where

studentsrsquo behaviour has been exemplary

Netball carnivals

After school soccer football and netball

A special thank you to our non-physd teacher Mr

Gannaway who has assisted with the girlsrsquo soccer

team

Recycling Waste Greenwood College was recently visited by the

Minister for the Environment The Hon Mr Stephen

Dawson MLC and Mrs Jessica Stojkovski our local

MLA in relation to our waste management at the

College which has been co-ordinated by the

Science Dept and our Head of Science Mr Evans

Canteen Students and parents are encouraged to support

our canteen which offers a wide variety of cold and

hot foods from a constantly evolving menu each

term to accommodate student demands The

college community depends and benefits greatly

from the profits that are put back into the college

and used by the PampC to buy equipment for the

school

Reports Semester 1 reports for all year groups will be

issued to students on Thursday 28 June (second

last day of college) to take home Parents will be

able to receive further feedback from teachers next

term when we have the Parent Reporting Evening

Year 10 Counselling for Upper School in 2019 It has been pleasing to see the level of engagement from parents and students alike during the upper

school subject counselling process that has unfolded throughout this term Thank you to all that

attended the information evening An individual counselling interview has now been scheduled for all

Year 10 students and their parents Attendance at this interview is a crucial step is finalising course

selections for the commencement of Year 11 Students and their families are once again reminded that

teacher recommendations are made with the intent of guiding our students through Year 11 and 12

with the maximum opportunity to achieve their WACE and to transition into successful post-school

opportunities

Year 9 Elective Selections for Year 10 2019 All Year 9 students have received a Year 10 elective handbook and selection sheet Please note that

selection sheets are due to be returned to the front office by Friday 22 June Elective selections for Year

10 are year-long Students should consider their preferences carefully as changes at a later date cannot

always be accommodated Although every effort is made to provide students each of their first three

elective preferences timetabling considerations including the popularity of different choices may mean

this is not always the case

Year 11 and 12 Academic Tracking Following the semester one exam and reporting period an academic review of all Year 11 and 12 ATAR

and General students is underway Greenwood College is keen to ensure that each of our Year 11 and

12 students is navigating a successful pathway through upper school We are particularly interested in

ensuring Year 11 students that have commenced on ATAR pathway have achieved positive semester

one results Students whose academic performance is of concern will be attending individual interviews

and in many cases parents will be invited to also attend Year 12 ATAR students are reminded to take

advantage of the many before and after school revision classes that are being offered by many of their

subject teachers

A Police Rangers unit has operated at Greenwood College for more than sixteen

years Over that time the police officers running the unit have enabled many

students to develop their life skills and so become more effective members of the

community

At a time of parental dismay at the anti-social behaviour of some young people the work of the Police

Rangers provides a useful way of channelling young peoplersquos energies in a positive direction Important

ideals of loyalty duty and service are central to the ethos of the Rangers

There are many recreational activities provided by the Rangers and they have been arranged so that

students can proceed at their own pace Some of the activities involve drills radio communications

navigation community service leadership training camping and physical challenges Membership of

the Rangers is open to all students in Years 7-12

The Rangers meet at Greenwood College on Mondays during the school year from 4-6pm Inquiries

City of Joondalup Mobile Youth Truck

The City of Joondalup has kindly offered Greenwood College the use of their Mobile Youth Truck every

second Thursday during lunchtimes for Term 2 The Youth Truck is a free mobile youth service for young

people aged 11-18 years old The Truck offers two qualified youth workers a kitchenette lounge

gaming TV and two unicycles These facilities aid the City of Joondalup in providing an inclusive

environment for young people and allow them to provide workshops skills building and personal

development

So far the weather has been very kind and our students have enjoyed themselves especially when the

inflatable mat was brought out (see picture below)

Winter Uniform

We are now heading into the wet and windy season Students have a responsibility to ensure that as

they walk out the front door of their home each morning they are in 100 full Greenwood College

uniform Girls can wear either navy blue or skin coloured stockings

Leggings are not allowed nor are beanies and ugg boots Scarves are definitely allowed but must also

be either plain navy blue or plain white or preferably a Greenwood College scarf available from the

uniform shop

All uniform worn must have the Greenwood College logo Any other type of clothing is not permitted

There will no doubt be very cold mornings this winter and the expectation is that students will arrive to

school warm but only wearing our uniform

Parents are reminded that the Uniform Shop has plenty of stock at the moment and it would be a good

idea to get in quick and buy the jumpers jackets needed to keep their child(ren) warm while at school

A school always looks much better when every student is wearing full uniform

Attendance To date over 30 students in Years 11 and 12 this year have chosen to leave school Reasons always

vary Most students apply for TAFE or jobs before they decide to leave school This is the preferred

outcome Some have been offered a place at TAFE some have found full time employment and some

are still looking Attending school in Years 11 and 12 is compulsory and a legal requirement Parents

carers must be aware that if their child chooses to leave school a process is undertaken Greenwood

College will submit a referral to the Participation Directorate requesting assistance

The Participation Team The Participation Team provides a transitional support service across all Public Catholic and

Independent schools to ensure all young people make successful transitions and participate in an

approved option in relation to the Raised Leaving Age Legislation

The options available under a Notice of Arrangements (NOA) for students in the final two years of their

compulsory education period - typically Years 11 and 12 aged students are to

attend school

enrol in an accredited course at a private Registered Training Organisation (RTO) or a public RTO

(formerly TAFEWA) or

attend an approved Community Based Course or

undertake an Apprenticeship or Traineeship or

gain employment in an approved job or

undertake a combination of the above

Students will always be encouraged to remain at school and complete either Year 11 or 12 Students

that enrol in TAFE at the beginning of the year or mid-year will be monitored by a Participation

Coordinator Same applies if a student commences full-time employment Leaving school and not

engaging in further education or employment is not a viable or accepted option

If your child (if in Years 11 or 12) is contemplating leaving school please contact either myself (9243

9238) or Fiona Gatey (9243 9213)

Attendance Heroes Drum roll helliphelliphelliphelliphelliphelliphelliphelliphelliphellip

The semester 1 Attendance Competition was won by the Year 7s with an

attendance percentage of 95 which was slightly better than the Year 8s with

92 That is a seriously commendable result for the year 7s and Ms Cook Third

place was taken by the Year 11s with 92 followed by the 9s and 10s on 91

and finally the 12s on 88 Well done to the students and to the respective Year

Coordinators Perhaps there will be a sausage sizzle as a reward

Sarah Asher Very sadly we had to say goodbye recently to Sarah Asher

our absolutely brilliant Student Support Officer Sarah has

worked at Greenwood College for nearly three years and in

that time she has had such a positive impact on this

school She has changed the lives of many of our young

people and is held in exceptionally high regard by staff

parents and most importantly students In 28 years of

education I have never seen a farewell to a staff member

like the one Sarah received As you can see by the photo

Sarah took home many gifts and many many cards

Sarah has left a wonderful legacy from her time here She is embarking on a new career

with Anglicare and we wish her all the best You will be missed Sarah

At Greenwood College we are busy focusing on our present Year 10 students and their subject

selections for their final years at Greenwood as well as directing Year 12 students towards their

pathways from school in to the world of work training and study With this in mind students should be

exploring industries and career pathways In this newsletter I will be detailing relevant and engaging

resources suitable for students at the College

Australiarsquos population is changing The population is getting older more females are in paid work and

the number of school aged children is growing Demand is likely to grow for aged care childcare home

based care and education services

Housing construction investment in infrastructure (like roads railways and airports)

tourism activity and the international education sector are expected to stay strong

The number and type of job openings available in the future will depend on things

like

turnover (workers leaving their job to do things like study move to another job

care for a family member retire or travel)

demand for goods and services

demand for resources

changes in technology

Industry Outlook

Over the 5 years to 2022 the department expects the largest job growth will be in

Health Care and Social Assistance

Professional Scientific and Technical Services

Construction

By 2022 there will probably be fewer jobs in

Manufacturing

Electricity Gas Water and Waste Services

Agriculture Forestry and Fishing

These are important industries and turnover will provide opportunities for workers with the right skills

Some parts of these industries (like Food Product Manufacturing) are expected to

grow

Career Outlook

The department expects there will be many new jobs for Professionals Community

and Personal Service Workers Some of the jobs expected to grow the most are

Registered Nurses

Aged and Disabled Carers

Accountants

Electricians

Some jobs need more training now than they used to (like Child Carers in day care centres) and most of

the new jobs created over the next few years will be higher skilled There are millions of lower skilled

jobs and these can be rewarding careers or pathways to other jobs

Employer needs can change quickly Workers who are willing to learn gain experience and build their

skills will be well placed to find and keep a job

Snapshots of many key industries provide information on salaries in related jobs employment trends in

the industry and what type of work you can expect if you pursue a career in the area Access this link

and explore relevant and up to date information regarding a variety of elements from salary training

and industry growth Over 30 Industries are detailed

wwwgraduatecareerscomaucareerplanningandresourcesexploringyourcareeroptionscareerprofiles

On the Greenwood College immediate front we have many opportunities arising for our students to

complete further training Presently a wealth of opportunities are being offered to students for delivery

at TAFE and other providersrsquo sites for one day a week commencing in 2019 Please keep an eye on the

daily notices and ask your student to continue to visit Ms Gatey for further training opportunities

Hi again Year 8s

This term has been a very busy term and is coming to an end We have had the

Lightning Carnival earlier in the term in which students tried their very best in

Soccer Basketball Netball and Volleyball The PE department were very pleased with how we

represented the school We were also very glad to have a long weekend break after working very hard

for that part of the term

Recently we had Elevate Education visit us and give us a talk called Junior Time Management in which

we learnt about how to balance our personal time with our study and homework We were also

rewarded with a sausage sizzle from Miss Arns and the Student Services team for our hard work this

term

Coming up in week 8 we have our Zero2hero week This week is all about supporting the charity called

Zero2hero which raises money for suicide prevention and was created by an ex-Greenwood student

Throughout the week Student Services have organised special

events such as mechanical bull and an obstacle course and a big

assembly on the Friday

As well as this we have Music Camp in week 8 and a HASS

excursion to Kings Park As you can tell

this is an incredibly busy week In week

9 we are being given our Semester One

Reports hopefully everyone has tried

their best this semester

After all this we have HOLIDAYS

In week 6 students from 41 42 and 43 went on an excursion to the State

Library and the Art Gallery of WA There were 41 of us so we split up into two

groups Each group had a session in the library and in the art gallery

In the Art Gallery we had to search for works of Art using clues and then write down what we saw and

what we thought In the library we attended a session called lsquoFun With Fairytalesrsquo We used ipads to

take photos for fairytales we have been studying Back at school we are using the Book Creator app on

the ipads to retell our fairytale with our photos We all know our fairytales very well now

Students from 31 32 33 and 34 went on an excursion to Caversham Wildlife Park in week 7 They

saw lots of Australian native animals and had a great day out

On 28 June students from the 4s classes will be graduating We are looking forward to the ceremony

and the excursion to bowling Some students will be moving to new schools and we hope they will stay

in touch with the friends they have made at Greenwood

Term 2 started off well with all the Year 7s finally settling into high school

Everyone knows each other and is getting along well In Week 5 it was the

Year 7 Lighting Carnival We had to choose from the sports Netball Volleyball

Soccer and Football and most sports competed against other schools We started training in week 2

with every sport and health lesson spent playing our selected sports Everyone was excited for the

carnival and played to the best of their abilities with two Netball teams placing 3rd in their Division

Overall it was a great day and everyone had fun

As we are coming to the end of Term 2 everyone is eager for the holidays to arrive So far College has

been amazing and we canrsquot wait to see what happens next

Hi guys This is the second newsletter for the year so far Itrsquos the end of week 7

and a lot has happened Letrsquos outline a few of the eventshellip (Probably not in

chronological order though)

Up first NAPLAN What a nerve-racking week There was a lot of grumbling and

groaning but I think we were all glad to be rid of the tests the next week Unfortunately for us the Big

Science Competition was on the same week More stress am I right But soon all the tests were over and

done with thank goodness for that

The Year 9s were also visited by Mr Luke Kennedy He came to talk to us about the effect labels can have

on us and that these labels donrsquot define us We really hope that every Year 9 present took his words to

heart Also this term the Year 9 Outdoor Education classes went to Rottnest The 9s had a heap of fun

fishing and biking Unfortunately for them though the water was rough and more than a few people were

sick After Rottnest came the School Sports Netball Carnival There were a lot of Year 9 girls participating

and they all had a great time playing against the top schools wining some and losing some The Division

1 team (a group of Year 9s10s) even came first in their division They will be participating in the finals

rounds in Fremantle later on this term

Last but not least the Lightning Carnival The Year 9 Lightning Carnival was yesterday the fourteenth All

the Year 9s participated and had a great fun-filled and enjoyable day The sports that were played were

Volleyball Basketball Netball Football and Soccer The Year 9s played at a range of different venues with

supporters on all sides This yearrsquos carnival was the second last wersquoll ever have and were all really sad

But wersquoll definitely make the most of our last Lightning Carnival next year

Well thatrsquos it for this term Itrsquos only a nine week term but it has been packed So much stuff has

happened some of it fun some of it not so much But wersquore all thoroughly enjoying this term so far and

Irsquom sure when we check in next term wersquoll have lots more to tell

Weve just had our immunisations against Meningococcal and have been

hard at work preparing for the year ahead of us We also have many

upcoming events such as an Interschool Sports Carnival a Drama

performance and the River Cruise

Meningococcal is a hard word to say and an even harder one to spell honestly who even names these

diseases Anyway the Year 10s had our immunisations against it so we most likely wont even have to

care how to say it or spell it For some this needle was their worst nightmare for others it was just a

free lolly and some skipped class time Either way it is over now so we can breathe a sigh of relief

Year 11 and 12 are very crucial years in a studentrsquos schooling so there needs to be a lot of preparation

to ensure theyre done right As Year 10 students going into Year 11 we have been in the process of

selecting our Year 11 subjects We have read the booklets of information about our upcoming subjects

and what they have to offer received our recommendations from our teachers for subjects next year

and had multiple meetings about it all The whole process ends on 22 June when our subject selection

sheets our due into the front office Before then many students and their parents will attend a

counselling session with a designated counsellor to go through their choices on their subject

recommendation sheets What is with all the preparation though Well the school wants us to be

prepared for Year 11 and 12 to ensure we can achieve our WACE (Western Australian Certificate of

Education) and allow for the smoothest transition into upper school ATAR students will most likely

attend university General students will either attend TAFE or seek alternative entrance to university

and Foundation students will most likely be seeking immediate employment in the workforce This all

sounds very scary and sudden but that is why we have lots and lots of preparation Just remember

kids it will be okay

Coming up is our Interschool Sports Carnival where the Greenwood Year 10s compete against Year

10s from various other schools Therell be laughter smiles sweat and maybe even some blood letrsquos

hope not Were sure itll be a fun day for everyone Good luck guys

By the time this article goes to print the Year 10 Drama productions would have concluded Currently

the Year 10 Drama students have been hard at work rehearsing and preparing a compilation of 10

minute plays for everyonersquos enjoyment The production starts on 25 June in the Drama room The

leadership group and Mr Bassanelli have been hard at work planning our Year 10 River Cruise At this

stage it is looking like being held next term in week 7 It is the one and only scheduled social event for

all the Year 10s and should be a fun night

Thank you all for reading Have a nice rest of your term enjoy your holidays and be nice to your mums

First and for most we would like to congratulate Taylor Waterson on achieving a

great milestone in her Rugby career She has represented WA in Women`s Rugby

both league and union for the Western Force She achieved this while juggling Year

12 ATAR and other school commitments We are very proud to have Taylor as a member of our year

group and we look forward to watching her succeed in the years to come

On another light note Zero2hero day is on Friday 22 June It is a mental health charity that was

founded by an ex-greenwood student and it now runs successfully at a variety of schools across Perth

The charities and the schools that run a Zero2hero day over the years have done a great job at raising

awareness and providing support to those of us that struggle with mental illness This year we are

keeping this tradition alive by extending a day of activities to a week ending on Friday with a whole

school assembly and a free dress day

It will be an especially good day for the Music students who embark on their quest to spread their

talents to the four corners of Perth

To end off we would like to remind Year 12 students about the Leaverrsquos Assembly Committee that will

meet on Monday lunch-times to create the most entertaining assembly of the year All are encouraged

to come and contribute to the last piece of our legacy

Hello all as another exciting term at Greenwood College comes to a close we have

new events exclusive to Year 11s coming up early next semester

Firstly to recap the past 9 weeks ATAR students have sat exams which posed as a

great introduction to our following senior years For those who are disappointed with

their result donrsquot stress there is plenty of time to improve before the second set of exams and for those

who did well keep up the incredible work efforts and keep striving for success Congratulations to

everyone

To all the musosrsquo your camp is just around the corner Enjoy your time in the beautiful Swan Valley

canrsquot wait to hear about it on your return Reminder to those interested in attending the Winter Concert

will be held on the Sunday and the camp in the Swan Valley

As we are sure you are all aware this week is Zero2hero week The whole week is to be filled with

communal activities that are sure to spread the positive vibes At the end of the week for our whole

school assembly we have some very special guests attending and trust us you do not want miss them

Finally the night we have all been waiting for - the Year 11 Formal As it is approaching much quicker

than we all thought We suggest you start looking for an outfit now donrsquot forget to dress to impress

Save the date 16 August - more information will be released soon

In the meantime from your Year 11 councillors we hope you enjoy your well-earned two week break

that is rapidly approaching Enjoy yourself stay safe and we will see you again after the break

Helping your child build healthy relationships Every day we interact with many other people You may not like them or agree with them but everyone deserves respect

Parents play an important role in assisting children and young people to build self-respect This leads to the development

of the values and skills needed to express respect to others There may be some variation in what represents respectful

behaviors across different cultures However in any cultural context respect is about behaviors that convey valuing and

caring about another person Helping your child develop the following skills will help them to form healthy respectful

relationships with peers and adults

Understanding and empathy Encourage your child to think about how another person may feel about something

Empathic listening Teach them to listen and show they understand another personrsquos point of view

Anger Management In times of conflict encourage them to think first before speaking stay calm and avoid hurtful

reactions

Conflict resolution Disagreements are normal in any relationship Itrsquos helpful to teach your child that to work

through a problem by understanding another personrsquos point of view To achieve a compromise or agreement is

better than winning an argument that leaves the other person feeling bullied hurt or embarrassed

Problem-solving and decision making skills Rather than you offering solutions for your childrsquos problems hold back

and support your child to generate a few possible solutions themselves Encourage them to think about the impact

of each option on themselves and others before deciding on their action

Honesty In a relationship where there is trust and acceptance there should be no reason to lie and honesty should

be encouraged

Assertiveness Help your child to learn how to stand up for themselves or to speak up about their values or needs in

a way that is non-confrontational and still respects others

On Tuesday 29 May 31 members of the Greenwood College

Vocal Ensemble went on a short excursion to Edith Cowan

University in Mount Lawley and to the Western Australian

Academy of Performing Arts Every Tuesday during the university

semester the Classical Department puts on a lunchtime concert

at 110pm Sometimes there are visiting artists Sometimes

there are local ones Sometimes there are the university

students themselves On this occasion we were treated to a

spectacular performance by Eneksis Vocal Ensemble led by Michael McCarthy one of Australias

leading specialists in Aural training in particular through the methods laid down by Zoltan Kodaly The

ensemble performed a dazzling array of pieces by Taverner Rheinberger Part Busto Biebl and others

in 4 5 6 8 and 10 part harmony all to a very high standard and all with the utmost dedication to

precision detail and expressive effect At the close of the concert more than one student commented

that some of the harmonies had given them goosebumps They were both surprised and inspired by this

particular effect We often hear about how music and sound can influence the human body but we

d o n t a l w a y s f i n d

ourselves quite so aware

of this experience After a

short afternoon tea the

students then made their

way back to the College in

time for their usual

rehearsal after school Im

so very pleased that the

students enjoyed this

special performance and

look forward to similar

outings in the future

On Friday 15 June the students and staff of the Music Department held it annual Term 2 lunchtime

Amphitheatre Rock Band Concert The Year 11 and Year 12 students of the Certificate II class were

tasked with setting up the ever increasing array of equipment required for these kinds of events Itrsquos

difficult to get these items placed on stage in time to perform let alone connected up working and

sounding as they should It requires considerable preparation and practice on the part of the students

as well as a willingness to sacrifice ones own lunch break for

the entertainment of the school There are always issues to

overcome in order to put this event on The students did an

excellent job under the circumstances First up were the Year

10-12 Senior Rock Band The Nameless with Hysteria Our

second item was presented by the Year 9-10 Intermediate

Rock Band Legacy with Rain Our third and fourth items

were presented by the Year 7-9 Junior Rock Bands Fire amp Ice

and Capacity performing Wild Thing and Better than

Revenge respectively The event serves to entertain the

students of the College as well as create a date that the

ensembles must be prepared for before then embarking on

the annual Primary School Music Tour The lunchtime concert

was very well attended with few seats spare around the

Amphitheatre My thanks to Mr Swain and Mrs Pattison the

ensembles directors for their hard work dedication and

willingness to go above and beyond to prepare our students

for these performances I am very proud of our students work

and look forward to showcasing their talents at Goollelal and

Halidon Primary School on Friday 22 June

CONGRATULATIONS to our Greenwood College Year 12 student NICHOLAS FANTINI who has won a photo

competition of an important Australian magazine Photoreview

(wwwphotoreviewcomau)

The article is published in Photoreview magazine of June 2018 see the

relative pages attached

The winning photos are masterful images of two adventurous Latin

America destinations Laguna Colorada in Bolivia and Bloody Red Lake

in the mountains of Chile The waters of these two lagoons have intense

orange hue which is contrasting amazingly with the landscape

The same student has become recently a winner of drone

photography in New Drones of Australia and took a 4th

place in Capture Nature Photo Competition in Joondalup

Greenwood College produces so many amazing

photographershellip

With the World Cup in full swing it would be fair to say that Soccer has never been so popular at

Greenwood College The 2018 season saw the school field 3 Teams Senior Boys u18rsquos that are led by

Dale Gannaway with the intermediate boys (u16) and Senior Girls (u18) being coached by yours truly

The biggest group we had by far was the intermediate boys We had too many for one team but not quite

enough for two which proves that there is a huge demand for the sport here Senior Girls had a mix of

junior and more experienced players while the Senior Boys has mostly experienced players with some

debutants stepping up from last years intermediate boys team

The Senior Girls had some brilliant moments in their season

Captained by Raquyah Hameed they showed some real promise in

their first game despite going down 3-0 to Duncraig SHS Their

second game against Carine SHS was far better with more

possession and shots on goal but neither team was able to break

the deadlock and the girls walked away with their first points with 0

-0 draw A forfeit from Mater Dei gave the girls their first win but

their best game was their last game against Quinns Baptist College

The Girls lost 4-1 to them last year however this time around lead

the game 1-0 right into the second half when a mixture of fatigue

as well as a heavy dose rain saw Quinns score 2 quick goals to win the match 2-1 Our standout players

throughout the season were Chelsea Downes Asha Malde and Jacinta and Isobel Boyce

The Intermediate Boys had another tough season however the

score lines were remarkably smaller than last season A crunching

7-1 loss to Ashdale followed by a narrow 2-1 loss to Shenton

showed the boys were improving Their last game against

Churchlands was very tight in the first half with multiple chances

on goal in the first half but somehow not finding the back of the

net The second half saw Churchlands run away with a 6-0 win

Honourable mentions go to Milad Safari Jigme Dorji and Atanas

Atanasav

The Senior Boys had a mixed season They started well with a resounding 3-0 win over St Stephens the

following week saw a narrow loss to Mater Dei despite the boys playing some brilliant soccer A forfeit

from Quinns gave them a 3-0 win on paper and they needed to win their recent clash with Balga SHS to

keep their finals hopes alive Sadly despite some valiant efforts from the likes of OT Mbafumoja Regis

Gatambiye Ahmed Omer and Aaron Deeks it wasnrsquot enough with Balga taking a 2-0 win There is one

more game left in the group stage which will be an away game on 25 June against Duncraig SHS

Despite our season earlier than we normally would like you can still enjoy the World Cup

The Year 9 Outdoor Education class set out on a fishing expedition to Rottnest island on Thursday

31 May The class spent weeks preparing for the expedition learning how to set up rigs tie knots

cast out and how to snag a big one The week leading up to Rottnest had high anticipation

throughout the class the question was ldquowho was going to get the biggest catchrdquo

As the morning arrived a dark and cold chill shivered through everyone ldquooh wait thatrsquos just the

weatherrdquo A storm had decided to hit the Perth coast in full force and provided not only challenging

fishing conditions but a crazy boat ride over The weather didnrsquot seem to dampen the morale of the

class although the boat ride would soon change this You know itrsquos a good start to a boat ride when

they hand you a sick bag as you boardhelliphellip

As we left Hillaryrsquos harbour there was laughter and jokes getting thrown around until the boat

stepped out into the ocean swell and the only thing that was getting thrown around were screams from

students and the odd little vomit Some thought this was the end With the skill of the Captain or just

luck of the draw we landed safe on the island With the crazy ride over there was a sigh of relief ldquoyayrdquo

fishing time

We had keen fishermen on our hands We delegated the fishing gear out and started our trek by foot

our destinationmdash the Army jetty The fish were about to get a shock

As we arrived it was still pouring with rain and down to 10 degrees but this didnrsquot stop any ldquooutdoor

eagersrdquo With the likes of AJ no shoes no jumper and just shorts he was running to the water to get

first cast and have the chance of bragging rights for the first catch Within minutes there wasnrsquot a ldquodryrdquo

seat in the house with all students out wetting a line

Moral was high although it was a slow start to the day The only thing getting reeled in was seaweed or a

cold BANG Harry Burt is on The rod has a big bend to it and it looks to be a big onehellip hold onhellip waithellip

what is that thing ldquoSir I caught someonersquos underwearrdquo Well at least we werenrsquot going home empty

handed

With the first catch being a pair of underwear things were starting to look south The class kept at it

battling the weather they started to hit the target The fish were biting and the race was on The fish

started to get pulled in and the smiles and bragging rights started to flow The rain still coming down

sideways in buckets While Mr Tippet Mrs Tkachenko and Mr Gillespie tackled the weather with the

students Mr Walczak kept cosy under the shelter with his knitted blanket and gloves With the fishing

coming to an end Jayden was crowned Champion Angler with a total count of 12 fish Despite the

protest from Harry with his imaginary 10ft snapper that magically got away

With the gear packed up it was time to start the hike back to the boat With the boat ride we had

coming to Rottnest I think the return boat ride was on everyonersquos thoughts With a small debrief of the

day and a bit of free time to go get some food we boarded the boat and set sail for Hillaryrsquos boat

harbour The ride home was smooth sailing as the wind was low and we had the swell on our side A

safe landing at the boat harbour had topped off the trip of on a good note and left everyone with plenty

of stories to tell

The 1st of June - day two of the Year 9s fishing expedition had commenced The sun was out spirits

were high and the sea was friendly to 50 of the class which managed to keep their breakfast in

In a lot of ways group oneday 1 and group twoday 2 were polar opposites The boat ride on the

second day was majestic compared to the ldquorollierdquo tides on day one Thunderstorms and heavy rain

one day - bright and sunny days on the next Day two students were blessed to say the least

Mr Bean kept those of who didnrsquot vomit entertained for the 40-45-minute trip with his timeless

humour Mr Gillespie tried working on his lesson plans but soon realised student numbers of sea

sickness was on the rise and other students were growing restless The seasick students were

quickly bundled upstairs to grab some fresh air with teachers to console them and their upset stomachs

Arriving at Rottnest the students were eager to replenish their recently empty stomachs putting Subway

and the local bakery into overdrive On a personal note the pies and pastries were an absolute dime

and are a MUST try After the students consumed the majority of Subwaysrsquo stock and took many selfies

with quokkas as physically possible we set out to acquire our sweet rides for the day

Mr Tippet refused Mr Gillespiersquos offer to take a tandem bike and was therefore designated the work

horse for the day and was given the trailer to cart around Mrs Tkachenko was the ever proficient and

gallant ldquopack leaderrdquo Mr Erwin the squad ldquomechanicmedicrdquo and Mr Gillespie was ldquochief motivatorall-

round utilityrdquo The students were responsible for their own equipment and had become giddy with

excitement once the sweet rides were obtained

We then set off to Salmon Bay to fish the sea dry There were ups and downs but there were more ups

then downshellip then we arrived Mr Erwinsrsquo skill as a bike technician came in handy multiple times on the

arduous journey while the students struggled to keep pace with the lightning fast Mrs Tkachenko Mr

Tippet took the fable of the tortoise and the hair very literally and kept a solid pace the entire way giving

his well-manicured legs a workout he would never forget

The word lsquoscenicrsquo comes to mind when reaching our destination with the lighthouse in the background

the sun beaming down the beautiful hilly terrain meeting the rocks and the tide gracefully touching the

sand with seaweed in massive clumps creating an interesting aroma Were we lucky to be fishing today

Now it was time for all the ground work done in class to rise to the occasion and begin fishing The girls

went off to a flying start and finished the day with a grand total of 37 fish Special mentions to Ella

Mason and Ashley Mathies who contributed ten fish between them and Marli Rabe who contributed with

a hefty four

Atanas Atanasoy caught the ldquoCATCH OF THE DAYrdquo - a 30cm Skippy which he took home for dinner

Sasha Babic and Rory Noonan had four each After the long glorious successful day we managed to

pack up without a hitch and ride back along the smooth road of Rottnest Except Mr Tippet (the work

horse) had to cart the supplies back with no help The students then tracked down the quokkas for more

selfies and finished their day with delicious pies and Subway before the setting sail back to the

motherland

Mr Bean managed to keep the extremely tired students entertained Their stomachs had settled we set

off once again having conquered Rottenest to our rear and dry land to our front In summary everyone

had a great day coming home wreaking of successful fishing

A Police Rangers unit has operated at Greenwood College for more than sixteen

years Over that time the police officers running the unit have enabled many

students to develop their life skills and so become more effective members of the

community

At a time of parental dismay at the anti-social behaviour of some young people the work of the Police

Rangers provides a useful way of channelling young peoplersquos energies in a positive direction Important

ideals of loyalty duty and service are central to the ethos of the Rangers

There are many recreational activities provided by the Rangers and they have been arranged so that

students can proceed at their own pace Some of the activities involve drills radio communications

navigation community service leadership training camping and physical challenges Membership of

the Rangers is open to all students in Years 7-12

The Rangers meet at Greenwood College on Mondays during the school year from 4-6pm Inquiries

City of Joondalup Mobile Youth Truck

The City of Joondalup has kindly offered Greenwood College the use of their Mobile Youth Truck every

second Thursday during lunchtimes for Term 2 The Youth Truck is a free mobile youth service for young

people aged 11-18 years old The Truck offers two qualified youth workers a kitchenette lounge

gaming TV and two unicycles These facilities aid the City of Joondalup in providing an inclusive

environment for young people and allow them to provide workshops skills building and personal

development

So far the weather has been very kind and our students have enjoyed themselves especially when the

inflatable mat was brought out (see picture below)

Winter Uniform

We are now heading into the wet and windy season Students have a responsibility to ensure that as

they walk out the front door of their home each morning they are in 100 full Greenwood College

uniform Girls can wear either navy blue or skin coloured stockings

Leggings are not allowed nor are beanies and ugg boots Scarves are definitely allowed but must also

be either plain navy blue or plain white or preferably a Greenwood College scarf available from the

uniform shop

All uniform worn must have the Greenwood College logo Any other type of clothing is not permitted

There will no doubt be very cold mornings this winter and the expectation is that students will arrive to

school warm but only wearing our uniform

Parents are reminded that the Uniform Shop has plenty of stock at the moment and it would be a good

idea to get in quick and buy the jumpers jackets needed to keep their child(ren) warm while at school

A school always looks much better when every student is wearing full uniform

Attendance To date over 30 students in Years 11 and 12 this year have chosen to leave school Reasons always

vary Most students apply for TAFE or jobs before they decide to leave school This is the preferred

outcome Some have been offered a place at TAFE some have found full time employment and some

are still looking Attending school in Years 11 and 12 is compulsory and a legal requirement Parents

carers must be aware that if their child chooses to leave school a process is undertaken Greenwood

College will submit a referral to the Participation Directorate requesting assistance

The Participation Team The Participation Team provides a transitional support service across all Public Catholic and

Independent schools to ensure all young people make successful transitions and participate in an

approved option in relation to the Raised Leaving Age Legislation

The options available under a Notice of Arrangements (NOA) for students in the final two years of their

compulsory education period - typically Years 11 and 12 aged students are to

attend school

enrol in an accredited course at a private Registered Training Organisation (RTO) or a public RTO

(formerly TAFEWA) or

attend an approved Community Based Course or

undertake an Apprenticeship or Traineeship or

gain employment in an approved job or

undertake a combination of the above

Students will always be encouraged to remain at school and complete either Year 11 or 12 Students

that enrol in TAFE at the beginning of the year or mid-year will be monitored by a Participation

Coordinator Same applies if a student commences full-time employment Leaving school and not

engaging in further education or employment is not a viable or accepted option

If your child (if in Years 11 or 12) is contemplating leaving school please contact either myself (9243

9238) or Fiona Gatey (9243 9213)

Attendance Heroes Drum roll helliphelliphelliphelliphelliphelliphelliphelliphelliphellip

The semester 1 Attendance Competition was won by the Year 7s with an

attendance percentage of 95 which was slightly better than the Year 8s with

92 That is a seriously commendable result for the year 7s and Ms Cook Third

place was taken by the Year 11s with 92 followed by the 9s and 10s on 91

and finally the 12s on 88 Well done to the students and to the respective Year

Coordinators Perhaps there will be a sausage sizzle as a reward

Sarah Asher Very sadly we had to say goodbye recently to Sarah Asher

our absolutely brilliant Student Support Officer Sarah has

worked at Greenwood College for nearly three years and in

that time she has had such a positive impact on this

school She has changed the lives of many of our young

people and is held in exceptionally high regard by staff

parents and most importantly students In 28 years of

education I have never seen a farewell to a staff member

like the one Sarah received As you can see by the photo

Sarah took home many gifts and many many cards

Sarah has left a wonderful legacy from her time here She is embarking on a new career

with Anglicare and we wish her all the best You will be missed Sarah

selections for their final years at Greenwood as well as directing Year 12 students towards their

resources suitable for students at the College

Australiarsquos population is changing The population is getting older more females are in paid work and

the number of school aged children is growing Demand is likely to grow for aged care childcare home

based care and education services

Housing construction investment in infrastructure (like roads railways and airports)

tourism activity and the international education sector are expected to stay strong

The number and type of job openings available in the future will depend on things

like

turnover (workers leaving their job to do things like study move to another job

care for a family member retire or travel)

demand for goods and services

demand for resources

changes in technology

Industry Outlook

Over the 5 years to 2022 the department expects the largest job growth will be in

Health Care and Social Assistance

Professional Scientific and Technical Services

Construction

By 2022 there will probably be fewer jobs in

Manufacturing

Electricity Gas Water and Waste Services

Agriculture Forestry and Fishing

These are important industries and turnover will provide opportunities for workers with the right skills

Some parts of these industries (like Food Product Manufacturing) are expected to

grow

Career Outlook

The department expects there will be many new jobs for Professionals Community

and Personal Service Workers Some of the jobs expected to grow the most are

Registered Nurses

Aged and Disabled Carers

Accountants

Electricians

Some jobs need more training now than they used to (like Child Carers in day care centres) and most of

the new jobs created over the next few years will be higher skilled There are millions of lower skilled

jobs and these can be rewarding careers or pathways to other jobs

Employer needs can change quickly Workers who are willing to learn gain experience and build their

skills will be well placed to find and keep a job

Snapshots of many key industries provide information on salaries in related jobs employment trends in

the industry and what type of work you can expect if you pursue a career in the area Access this link

and explore relevant and up to date information regarding a variety of elements from salary training

and industry growth Over 30 Industries are detailed

Hi again Year 8s

This term has been a very busy term and is coming to an end We have had the

Lightning Carnival earlier in the term in which students tried their very best in

Soccer Basketball Netball and Volleyball The PE department were very pleased with how we

represented the school We were also very glad to have a long weekend break after working very hard

for that part of the term

Recently we had Elevate Education visit us and give us a talk called Junior Time Management in which

we learnt about how to balance our personal time with our study and homework We were also

rewarded with a sausage sizzle from Miss Arns and the Student Services team for our hard work this

term

Coming up in week 8 we have our Zero2hero week This week is all about supporting the charity called

Zero2hero which raises money for suicide prevention and was created by an ex-Greenwood student

Throughout the week Student Services have organised special

events such as mechanical bull and an obstacle course and a big

assembly on the Friday

As well as this we have Music Camp in week 8 and a HASS

excursion to Kings Park As you can tell

this is an incredibly busy week In week

9 we are being given our Semester One

Reports hopefully everyone has tried

their best this semester

After all this we have HOLIDAYS

In week 6 students from 41 42 and 43 went on an excursion to the State

Library and the Art Gallery of WA There were 41 of us so we split up into two

groups Each group had a session in the library and in the art gallery

In the Art Gallery we had to search for works of Art using clues and then write down what we saw and

what we thought In the library we attended a session called lsquoFun With Fairytalesrsquo We used ipads to

take photos for fairytales we have been studying Back at school we are using the Book Creator app on

the ipads to retell our fairytale with our photos We all know our fairytales very well now

Students from 31 32 33 and 34 went on an excursion to Caversham Wildlife Park in week 7 They

saw lots of Australian native animals and had a great day out

On 28 June students from the 4s classes will be graduating We are looking forward to the ceremony

and the excursion to bowling Some students will be moving to new schools and we hope they will stay

in touch with the friends they have made at Greenwood

Term 2 started off well with all the Year 7s finally settling into high school

Everyone knows each other and is getting along well In Week 5 it was the

Year 7 Lighting Carnival We had to choose from the sports Netball Volleyball

Soccer and Football and most sports competed against other schools We started training in week 2

with every sport and health lesson spent playing our selected sports Everyone was excited for the

carnival and played to the best of their abilities with two Netball teams placing 3rd in their Division

Overall it was a great day and everyone had fun

As we are coming to the end of Term 2 everyone is eager for the holidays to arrive So far College has

been amazing and we canrsquot wait to see what happens next

Hi guys This is the second newsletter for the year so far Itrsquos the end of week 7

and a lot has happened Letrsquos outline a few of the eventshellip (Probably not in

chronological order though)

Up first NAPLAN What a nerve-racking week There was a lot of grumbling and

groaning but I think we were all glad to be rid of the tests the next week Unfortunately for us the Big

Science Competition was on the same week More stress am I right But soon all the tests were over and

done with thank goodness for that

The Year 9s were also visited by Mr Luke Kennedy He came to talk to us about the effect labels can have

on us and that these labels donrsquot define us We really hope that every Year 9 present took his words to

heart Also this term the Year 9 Outdoor Education classes went to Rottnest The 9s had a heap of fun

fishing and biking Unfortunately for them though the water was rough and more than a few people were

sick After Rottnest came the School Sports Netball Carnival There were a lot of Year 9 girls participating

and they all had a great time playing against the top schools wining some and losing some The Division

1 team (a group of Year 9s10s) even came first in their division They will be participating in the finals

rounds in Fremantle later on this term

Last but not least the Lightning Carnival The Year 9 Lightning Carnival was yesterday the fourteenth All

the Year 9s participated and had a great fun-filled and enjoyable day The sports that were played were

Volleyball Basketball Netball Football and Soccer The Year 9s played at a range of different venues with

supporters on all sides This yearrsquos carnival was the second last wersquoll ever have and were all really sad

But wersquoll definitely make the most of our last Lightning Carnival next year

Well thatrsquos it for this term Itrsquos only a nine week term but it has been packed So much stuff has

happened some of it fun some of it not so much But wersquore all thoroughly enjoying this term so far and

Irsquom sure when we check in next term wersquoll have lots more to tell

Weve just had our immunisations against Meningococcal and have been

hard at work preparing for the year ahead of us We also have many

upcoming events such as an Interschool Sports Carnival a Drama

performance and the River Cruise

Meningococcal is a hard word to say and an even harder one to spell honestly who even names these

diseases Anyway the Year 10s had our immunisations against it so we most likely wont even have to

care how to say it or spell it For some this needle was their worst nightmare for others it was just a

free lolly and some skipped class time Either way it is over now so we can breathe a sigh of relief

Year 11 and 12 are very crucial years in a studentrsquos schooling so there needs to be a lot of preparation

to ensure theyre done right As Year 10 students going into Year 11 we have been in the process of

selecting our Year 11 subjects We have read the booklets of information about our upcoming subjects

and what they have to offer received our recommendations from our teachers for subjects next year

and had multiple meetings about it all The whole process ends on 22 June when our subject selection

sheets our due into the front office Before then many students and their parents will attend a

counselling session with a designated counsellor to go through their choices on their subject

recommendation sheets What is with all the preparation though Well the school wants us to be

prepared for Year 11 and 12 to ensure we can achieve our WACE (Western Australian Certificate of

Education) and allow for the smoothest transition into upper school ATAR students will most likely

attend university General students will either attend TAFE or seek alternative entrance to university

and Foundation students will most likely be seeking immediate employment in the workforce This all

sounds very scary and sudden but that is why we have lots and lots of preparation Just remember

kids it will be okay

Coming up is our Interschool Sports Carnival where the Greenwood Year 10s compete against Year

10s from various other schools Therell be laughter smiles sweat and maybe even some blood letrsquos

hope not Were sure itll be a fun day for everyone Good luck guys

By the time this article goes to print the Year 10 Drama productions would have concluded Currently

the Year 10 Drama students have been hard at work rehearsing and preparing a compilation of 10

minute plays for everyonersquos enjoyment The production starts on 25 June in the Drama room The

leadership group and Mr Bassanelli have been hard at work planning our Year 10 River Cruise At this

stage it is looking like being held next term in week 7 It is the one and only scheduled social event for

all the Year 10s and should be a fun night

Thank you all for reading Have a nice rest of your term enjoy your holidays and be nice to your mums

First and for most we would like to congratulate Taylor Waterson on achieving a

great milestone in her Rugby career She has represented WA in Women`s Rugby

both league and union for the Western Force She achieved this while juggling Year

12 ATAR and other school commitments We are very proud to have Taylor as a member of our year

group and we look forward to watching her succeed in the years to come

On another light note Zero2hero day is on Friday 22 June It is a mental health charity that was

founded by an ex-greenwood student and it now runs successfully at a variety of schools across Perth

The charities and the schools that run a Zero2hero day over the years have done a great job at raising

awareness and providing support to those of us that struggle with mental illness This year we are

keeping this tradition alive by extending a day of activities to a week ending on Friday with a whole

school assembly and a free dress day

It will be an especially good day for the Music students who embark on their quest to spread their

talents to the four corners of Perth

To end off we would like to remind Year 12 students about the Leaverrsquos Assembly Committee that will

meet on Monday lunch-times to create the most entertaining assembly of the year All are encouraged

to come and contribute to the last piece of our legacy

Hello all as another exciting term at Greenwood College comes to a close we have

new events exclusive to Year 11s coming up early next semester

Firstly to recap the past 9 weeks ATAR students have sat exams which posed as a

great introduction to our following senior years For those who are disappointed with

their result donrsquot stress there is plenty of time to improve before the second set of exams and for those

who did well keep up the incredible work efforts and keep striving for success Congratulations to

everyone

To all the musosrsquo your camp is just around the corner Enjoy your time in the beautiful Swan Valley

canrsquot wait to hear about it on your return Reminder to those interested in attending the Winter Concert

will be held on the Sunday and the camp in the Swan Valley

As we are sure you are all aware this week is Zero2hero week The whole week is to be filled with

communal activities that are sure to spread the positive vibes At the end of the week for our whole

school assembly we have some very special guests attending and trust us you do not want miss them

Finally the night we have all been waiting for - the Year 11 Formal As it is approaching much quicker

than we all thought We suggest you start looking for an outfit now donrsquot forget to dress to impress

Save the date 16 August - more information will be released soon

In the meantime from your Year 11 councillors we hope you enjoy your well-earned two week break

that is rapidly approaching Enjoy yourself stay safe and we will see you again after the break

Helping your child build healthy relationships Every day we interact with many other people You may not like them or agree with them but everyone deserves respect

Parents play an important role in assisting children and young people to build self-respect This leads to the development

of the values and skills needed to express respect to others There may be some variation in what represents respectful

behaviors across different cultures However in any cultural context respect is about behaviors that convey valuing and

caring about another person Helping your child develop the following skills will help them to form healthy respectful

relationships with peers and adults

Understanding and empathy Encourage your child to think about how another person may feel about something

Empathic listening Teach them to listen and show they understand another personrsquos point of view

Anger Management In times of conflict encourage them to think first before speaking stay calm and avoid hurtful

reactions

Conflict resolution Disagreements are normal in any relationship Itrsquos helpful to teach your child that to work

through a problem by understanding another personrsquos point of view To achieve a compromise or agreement is

better than winning an argument that leaves the other person feeling bullied hurt or embarrassed

Problem-solving and decision making skills Rather than you offering solutions for your childrsquos problems hold back

and support your child to generate a few possible solutions themselves Encourage them to think about the impact

of each option on themselves and others before deciding on their action

Honesty In a relationship where there is trust and acceptance there should be no reason to lie and honesty should

be encouraged

Assertiveness Help your child to learn how to stand up for themselves or to speak up about their values or needs in

a way that is non-confrontational and still respects others

Simone Priestley

On Tuesday 29 May 31 members of the Greenwood College

Vocal Ensemble went on a short excursion to Edith Cowan

University in Mount Lawley and to the Western Australian

Academy of Performing Arts Every Tuesday during the university

semester the Classical Department puts on a lunchtime concert

at 110pm Sometimes there are visiting artists Sometimes

there are local ones Sometimes there are the university

students themselves On this occasion we were treated to a

spectacular performance by Eneksis Vocal Ensemble led by Michael McCarthy one of Australias

leading specialists in Aural training in particular through the methods laid down by Zoltan Kodaly The

ensemble performed a dazzling array of pieces by Taverner Rheinberger Part Busto Biebl and others

in 4 5 6 8 and 10 part harmony all to a very high standard and all with the utmost dedication to

precision detail and expressive effect At the close of the concert more than one student commented

that some of the harmonies had given them goosebumps They were both surprised and inspired by this

particular effect We often hear about how music and sound can influence the human body but we

d o n t a l w a y s f i n d

ourselves quite so aware

of this experience After a

short afternoon tea the

students then made their

way back to the College in

time for their usual

rehearsal after school Im

so very pleased that the

students enjoyed this

special performance and

look forward to similar

outings in the future

On Friday 15 June the students and staff of the Music Department held it annual Term 2 lunchtime

Amphitheatre Rock Band Concert The Year 11 and Year 12 students of the Certificate II class were

tasked with setting up the ever increasing array of equipment required for these kinds of events Itrsquos

difficult to get these items placed on stage in time to perform let alone connected up working and

sounding as they should It requires considerable preparation and practice on the part of the students

as well as a willingness to sacrifice ones own lunch break for

the entertainment of the school There are always issues to

overcome in order to put this event on The students did an

excellent job under the circumstances First up were the Year

10-12 Senior Rock Band The Nameless with Hysteria Our

second item was presented by the Year 9-10 Intermediate

Rock Band Legacy with Rain Our third and fourth items

were presented by the Year 7-9 Junior Rock Bands Fire amp Ice

and Capacity performing Wild Thing and Better than

Revenge respectively The event serves to entertain the

students of the College as well as create a date that the

ensembles must be prepared for before then embarking on

the annual Primary School Music Tour The lunchtime concert

was very well attended with few seats spare around the

Amphitheatre My thanks to Mr Swain and Mrs Pattison the

ensembles directors for their hard work dedication and

willingness to go above and beyond to prepare our students

for these performances I am very proud of our students work

and look forward to showcasing their talents at Goollelal and

Halidon Primary School on Friday 22 June

CONGRATULATIONS to our Greenwood College Year 12 student NICHOLAS FANTINI who has won a photo

competition of an important Australian magazine Photoreview

(wwwphotoreviewcomau)

The article is published in Photoreview magazine of June 2018 see the

relative pages attached

The winning photos are masterful images of two adventurous Latin

America destinations Laguna Colorada in Bolivia and Bloody Red Lake

in the mountains of Chile The waters of these two lagoons have intense

orange hue which is contrasting amazingly with the landscape

The same student has become recently a winner of drone

photography in New Drones of Australia and took a 4th

place in Capture Nature Photo Competition in Joondalup

Greenwood College produces so many amazing

photographershellip

With the World Cup in full swing it would be fair to say that Soccer has never been so popular at

Greenwood College The 2018 season saw the school field 3 Teams Senior Boys u18rsquos that are led by

Dale Gannaway with the intermediate boys (u16) and Senior Girls (u18) being coached by yours truly

The biggest group we had by far was the intermediate boys We had too many for one team but not quite

enough for two which proves that there is a huge demand for the sport here Senior Girls had a mix of

junior and more experienced players while the Senior Boys has mostly experienced players with some

debutants stepping up from last years intermediate boys team

The Senior Girls had some brilliant moments in their season

Captained by Raquyah Hameed they showed some real promise in

their first game despite going down 3-0 to Duncraig SHS Their

second game against Carine SHS was far better with more

possession and shots on goal but neither team was able to break

the deadlock and the girls walked away with their first points with 0

-0 draw A forfeit from Mater Dei gave the girls their first win but

their best game was their last game against Quinns Baptist College

The Girls lost 4-1 to them last year however this time around lead

the game 1-0 right into the second half when a mixture of fatigue

as well as a heavy dose rain saw Quinns score 2 quick goals to win the match 2-1 Our standout players

throughout the season were Chelsea Downes Asha Malde and Jacinta and Isobel Boyce

The Intermediate Boys had another tough season however the

score lines were remarkably smaller than last season A crunching

7-1 loss to Ashdale followed by a narrow 2-1 loss to Shenton

showed the boys were improving Their last game against

Churchlands was very tight in the first half with multiple chances

on goal in the first half but somehow not finding the back of the

net The second half saw Churchlands run away with a 6-0 win

Honourable mentions go to Milad Safari Jigme Dorji and Atanas

Atanasav

The Senior Boys had a mixed season They started well with a resounding 3-0 win over St Stephens the

following week saw a narrow loss to Mater Dei despite the boys playing some brilliant soccer A forfeit

from Quinns gave them a 3-0 win on paper and they needed to win their recent clash with Balga SHS to

keep their finals hopes alive Sadly despite some valiant efforts from the likes of OT Mbafumoja Regis

Gatambiye Ahmed Omer and Aaron Deeks it wasnrsquot enough with Balga taking a 2-0 win There is one

more game left in the group stage which will be an away game on 25 June against Duncraig SHS

Despite our season earlier than we normally would like you can still enjoy the World Cup

The Year 9 Outdoor Education class set out on a fishing expedition to Rottnest island on Thursday

31 May The class spent weeks preparing for the expedition learning how to set up rigs tie knots

cast out and how to snag a big one The week leading up to Rottnest had high anticipation

throughout the class the question was ldquowho was going to get the biggest catchrdquo

As the morning arrived a dark and cold chill shivered through everyone ldquooh wait thatrsquos just the

weatherrdquo A storm had decided to hit the Perth coast in full force and provided not only challenging

fishing conditions but a crazy boat ride over The weather didnrsquot seem to dampen the morale of the

class although the boat ride would soon change this You know itrsquos a good start to a boat ride when

they hand you a sick bag as you boardhelliphellip

As we left Hillaryrsquos harbour there was laughter and jokes getting thrown around until the boat

stepped out into the ocean swell and the only thing that was getting thrown around were screams from

students and the odd little vomit Some thought this was the end With the skill of the Captain or just

luck of the draw we landed safe on the island With the crazy ride over there was a sigh of relief ldquoyayrdquo

fishing time

We had keen fishermen on our hands We delegated the fishing gear out and started our trek by foot

our destinationmdash the Army jetty The fish were about to get a shock

As we arrived it was still pouring with rain and down to 10 degrees but this didnrsquot stop any ldquooutdoor

eagersrdquo With the likes of AJ no shoes no jumper and just shorts he was running to the water to get

first cast and have the chance of bragging rights for the first catch Within minutes there wasnrsquot a ldquodryrdquo

seat in the house with all students out wetting a line

Moral was high although it was a slow start to the day The only thing getting reeled in was seaweed or a

cold BANG Harry Burt is on The rod has a big bend to it and it looks to be a big onehellip hold onhellip waithellip

what is that thing ldquoSir I caught someonersquos underwearrdquo Well at least we werenrsquot going home empty

handed

With the first catch being a pair of underwear things were starting to look south The class kept at it

battling the weather they started to hit the target The fish were biting and the race was on The fish

started to get pulled in and the smiles and bragging rights started to flow The rain still coming down

sideways in buckets While Mr Tippet Mrs Tkachenko and Mr Gillespie tackled the weather with the

students Mr Walczak kept cosy under the shelter with his knitted blanket and gloves With the fishing

coming to an end Jayden was crowned Champion Angler with a total count of 12 fish Despite the

protest from Harry with his imaginary 10ft snapper that magically got away

With the gear packed up it was time to start the hike back to the boat With the boat ride we had

coming to Rottnest I think the return boat ride was on everyonersquos thoughts With a small debrief of the

day and a bit of free time to go get some food we boarded the boat and set sail for Hillaryrsquos boat

harbour The ride home was smooth sailing as the wind was low and we had the swell on our side A

safe landing at the boat harbour had topped off the trip of on a good note and left everyone with plenty

of stories to tell

O U T D O O R E D ( P R A C T E A C H E R )

The 1st of June - day two of the Year 9s fishing expedition had commenced The sun was out spirits

were high and the sea was friendly to 50 of the class which managed to keep their breakfast in

In a lot of ways group oneday 1 and group twoday 2 were polar opposites The boat ride on the

second day was majestic compared to the ldquorollierdquo tides on day one Thunderstorms and heavy rain

one day - bright and sunny days on the next Day two students were blessed to say the least

Mr Bean kept those of who didnrsquot vomit entertained for the 40-45-minute trip with his timeless

humour Mr Gillespie tried working on his lesson plans but soon realised student numbers of sea

sickness was on the rise and other students were growing restless The seasick students were

quickly bundled upstairs to grab some fresh air with teachers to console them and their upset stomachs

Arriving at Rottnest the students were eager to replenish their recently empty stomachs putting Subway

and the local bakery into overdrive On a personal note the pies and pastries were an absolute dime

and are a MUST try After the students consumed the majority of Subwaysrsquo stock and took many selfies

with quokkas as physically possible we set out to acquire our sweet rides for the day

Mr Tippet refused Mr Gillespiersquos offer to take a tandem bike and was therefore designated the work

horse for the day and was given the trailer to cart around Mrs Tkachenko was the ever proficient and

gallant ldquopack leaderrdquo Mr Erwin the squad ldquomechanicmedicrdquo and Mr Gillespie was ldquochief motivatorall-

round utilityrdquo The students were responsible for their own equipment and had become giddy with

excitement once the sweet rides were obtained

We then set off to Salmon Bay to fish the sea dry There were ups and downs but there were more ups

then downshellip then we arrived Mr Erwinsrsquo skill as a bike technician came in handy multiple times on the

arduous journey while the students struggled to keep pace with the lightning fast Mrs Tkachenko Mr

Tippet took the fable of the tortoise and the hair very literally and kept a solid pace the entire way giving

his well-manicured legs a workout he would never forget

The word lsquoscenicrsquo comes to mind when reaching our destination with the lighthouse in the background

the sun beaming down the beautiful hilly terrain meeting the rocks and the tide gracefully touching the

sand with seaweed in massive clumps creating an interesting aroma Were we lucky to be fishing today

Now it was time for all the ground work done in class to rise to the occasion and begin fishing The girls

went off to a flying start and finished the day with a grand total of 37 fish Special mentions to Ella

Mason and Ashley Mathies who contributed ten fish between them and Marli Rabe who contributed with

a hefty four

Atanas Atanasoy caught the ldquoCATCH OF THE DAYrdquo - a 30cm Skippy which he took home for dinner

Sasha Babic and Rory Noonan had four each After the long glorious successful day we managed to

pack up without a hitch and ride back along the smooth road of Rottnest Except Mr Tippet (the work

horse) had to cart the supplies back with no help The students then tracked down the quokkas for more

selfies and finished their day with delicious pies and Subway before the setting sail back to the

motherland

Mr Bean managed to keep the extremely tired students entertained Their stomachs had settled we set

off once again having conquered Rottenest to our rear and dry land to our front In summary everyone

had a great day coming home wreaking of successful fishing

City of Joondalup Mobile Youth Truck

The City of Joondalup has kindly offered Greenwood College the use of their Mobile Youth Truck every

second Thursday during lunchtimes for Term 2 The Youth Truck is a free mobile youth service for young

people aged 11-18 years old The Truck offers two qualified youth workers a kitchenette lounge

gaming TV and two unicycles These facilities aid the City of Joondalup in providing an inclusive

environment for young people and allow them to provide workshops skills building and personal

development

So far the weather has been very kind and our students have enjoyed themselves especially when the

inflatable mat was brought out (see picture below)

Winter Uniform

We are now heading into the wet and windy season Students have a responsibility to ensure that as

they walk out the front door of their home each morning they are in 100 full Greenwood College

uniform Girls can wear either navy blue or skin coloured stockings

Leggings are not allowed nor are beanies and ugg boots Scarves are definitely allowed but must also

be either plain navy blue or plain white or preferably a Greenwood College scarf available from the

uniform shop

All uniform worn must have the Greenwood College logo Any other type of clothing is not permitted

There will no doubt be very cold mornings this winter and the expectation is that students will arrive to

school warm but only wearing our uniform

Parents are reminded that the Uniform Shop has plenty of stock at the moment and it would be a good

idea to get in quick and buy the jumpers jackets needed to keep their child(ren) warm while at school

A school always looks much better when every student is wearing full uniform

outcome Some have been offered a place at TAFE some have found full time employment and some

are still looking Attending school in Years 11 and 12 is compulsory and a legal requirement Parents

carers must be aware that if their child chooses to leave school a process is undertaken Greenwood

College will submit a referral to the Participation Directorate requesting assistance

Sarah Asher Very sadly we had to say goodbye recently to Sarah Asher

our absolutely brilliant Student Support Officer Sarah has

worked at Greenwood College for nearly three years and in

that time she has had such a positive impact on this

school She has changed the lives of many of our young

people and is held in exceptionally high regard by staff

parents and most importantly students In 28 years of

education I have never seen a farewell to a staff member

like the one Sarah received As you can see by the photo

Sarah took home many gifts and many many cards

Sarah has left a wonderful legacy from her time here She is embarking on a new career

with Anglicare and we wish her all the best You will be missed Sarah

At Greenwood College we are busy focusing on our present Year 10 students and their subject

selections for their final years at Greenwood as well as directing Year 12 students towards their

pathways from school in to the world of work training and study With this in mind students should be

exploring industries and career pathways In this newsletter I will be detailing relevant and engaging

resources suitable for students at the College

Australiarsquos population is changing The population is getting older more females are in paid work and

the number of school aged children is growing Demand is likely to grow for aged care childcare home

based care and education services

Housing construction investment in infrastructure (like roads railways and airports)

tourism activity and the international education sector are expected to stay strong

The number and type of job openings available in the future will depend on things

like

turnover (workers leaving their job to do things like study move to another job

care for a family member retire or travel)

demand for goods and services

demand for resources

changes in technology

Industry Outlook

Over the 5 years to 2022 the department expects the largest job growth will be in

Health Care and Social Assistance

Professional Scientific and Technical Services

Construction

By 2022 there will probably be fewer jobs in

Manufacturing

Electricity Gas Water and Waste Services

Agriculture Forestry and Fishing

These are important industries and turnover will provide opportunities for workers with the right skills

Some parts of these industries (like Food Product Manufacturing) are expected to

grow

Career Outlook

The department expects there will be many new jobs for Professionals Community

and Personal Service Workers Some of the jobs expected to grow the most are

Registered Nurses

Aged and Disabled Carers

Accountants

Electricians

Some jobs need more training now than they used to (like Child Carers in day care centres) and most of

the new jobs created over the next few years will be higher skilled There are millions of lower skilled

jobs and these can be rewarding careers or pathways to other jobs

Employer needs can change quickly Workers who are willing to learn gain experience and build their

skills will be well placed to find and keep a job

Snapshots of many key industries provide information on salaries in related jobs employment trends in

the industry and what type of work you can expect if you pursue a career in the area Access this link

and explore relevant and up to date information regarding a variety of elements from salary training

and industry growth Over 30 Industries are detailed

On the Greenwood College immediate front we have many opportunities arising for our students to

complete further training Presently a wealth of opportunities are being offered to students for delivery

at TAFE and other providersrsquo sites for one day a week commencing in 2019 Please keep an eye on the

daily notices and ask your student to continue to visit Ms Gatey for further training opportunities

Hi again Year 8s

This term has been a very busy term and is coming to an end We have had the

Lightning Carnival earlier in the term in which students tried their very best in

Soccer Basketball Netball and Volleyball The PE department were very pleased with how we

represented the school We were also very glad to have a long weekend break after working very hard

for that part of the term

Recently we had Elevate Education visit us and give us a talk called Junior Time Management in which

we learnt about how to balance our personal time with our study and homework We were also

rewarded with a sausage sizzle from Miss Arns and the Student Services team for our hard work this

term

Coming up in week 8 we have our Zero2hero week This week is all about supporting the charity called

Zero2hero which raises money for suicide prevention and was created by an ex-Greenwood student

Throughout the week Student Services have organised special

events such as mechanical bull and an obstacle course and a big

assembly on the Friday

As well as this we have Music Camp in week 8 and a HASS

excursion to Kings Park As you can tell

this is an incredibly busy week In week

9 we are being given our Semester One

Reports hopefully everyone has tried

their best this semester

After all this we have HOLIDAYS

In week 6 students from 41 42 and 43 went on an excursion to the State

Library and the Art Gallery of WA There were 41 of us so we split up into two

groups Each group had a session in the library and in the art gallery

In the Art Gallery we had to search for works of Art using clues and then write down what we saw and

what we thought In the library we attended a session called lsquoFun With Fairytalesrsquo We used ipads to

take photos for fairytales we have been studying Back at school we are using the Book Creator app on

the ipads to retell our fairytale with our photos We all know our fairytales very well now

Students from 31 32 33 and 34 went on an excursion to Caversham Wildlife Park in week 7 They

saw lots of Australian native animals and had a great day out

On 28 June students from the 4s classes will be graduating We are looking forward to the ceremony

and the excursion to bowling Some students will be moving to new schools and we hope they will stay

in touch with the friends they have made at Greenwood

Term 2 started off well with all the Year 7s finally settling into high school

Everyone knows each other and is getting along well In Week 5 it was the

Year 7 Lighting Carnival We had to choose from the sports Netball Volleyball

Soccer and Football and most sports competed against other schools We started training in week 2

with every sport and health lesson spent playing our selected sports Everyone was excited for the

carnival and played to the best of their abilities with two Netball teams placing 3rd in their Division

Overall it was a great day and everyone had fun

As we are coming to the end of Term 2 everyone is eager for the holidays to arrive So far College has

been amazing and we canrsquot wait to see what happens next

Hi guys This is the second newsletter for the year so far Itrsquos the end of week 7

and a lot has happened Letrsquos outline a few of the eventshellip (Probably not in

chronological order though)

Up first NAPLAN What a nerve-racking week There was a lot of grumbling and

groaning but I think we were all glad to be rid of the tests the next week Unfortunately for us the Big

Science Competition was on the same week More stress am I right But soon all the tests were over and

done with thank goodness for that

The Year 9s were also visited by Mr Luke Kennedy He came to talk to us about the effect labels can have

on us and that these labels donrsquot define us We really hope that every Year 9 present took his words to

heart Also this term the Year 9 Outdoor Education classes went to Rottnest The 9s had a heap of fun

fishing and biking Unfortunately for them though the water was rough and more than a few people were

sick After Rottnest came the School Sports Netball Carnival There were a lot of Year 9 girls participating

and they all had a great time playing against the top schools wining some and losing some The Division

1 team (a group of Year 9s10s) even came first in their division They will be participating in the finals

rounds in Fremantle later on this term

Last but not least the Lightning Carnival The Year 9 Lightning Carnival was yesterday the fourteenth All

the Year 9s participated and had a great fun-filled and enjoyable day The sports that were played were

Volleyball Basketball Netball Football and Soccer The Year 9s played at a range of different venues with

supporters on all sides This yearrsquos carnival was the second last wersquoll ever have and were all really sad

But wersquoll definitely make the most of our last Lightning Carnival next year

Well thatrsquos it for this term Itrsquos only a nine week term but it has been packed So much stuff has

happened some of it fun some of it not so much But wersquore all thoroughly enjoying this term so far and

Irsquom sure when we check in next term wersquoll have lots more to tell

Weve just had our immunisations against Meningococcal and have been

hard at work preparing for the year ahead of us We also have many

upcoming events such as an Interschool Sports Carnival a Drama

performance and the River Cruise

Meningococcal is a hard word to say and an even harder one to spell honestly who even names these

diseases Anyway the Year 10s had our immunisations against it so we most likely wont even have to

care how to say it or spell it For some this needle was their worst nightmare for others it was just a

free lolly and some skipped class time Either way it is over now so we can breathe a sigh of relief

Year 11 and 12 are very crucial years in a studentrsquos schooling so there needs to be a lot of preparation

to ensure theyre done right As Year 10 students going into Year 11 we have been in the process of

selecting our Year 11 subjects We have read the booklets of information about our upcoming subjects

and what they have to offer received our recommendations from our teachers for subjects next year

and had multiple meetings about it all The whole process ends on 22 June when our subject selection

sheets our due into the front office Before then many students and their parents will attend a

counselling session with a designated counsellor to go through their choices on their subject

recommendation sheets What is with all the preparation though Well the school wants us to be

prepared for Year 11 and 12 to ensure we can achieve our WACE (Western Australian Certificate of

Education) and allow for the smoothest transition into upper school ATAR students will most likely

attend university General students will either attend TAFE or seek alternative entrance to university

and Foundation students will most likely be seeking immediate employment in the workforce This all

sounds very scary and sudden but that is why we have lots and lots of preparation Just remember

kids it will be okay

Coming up is our Interschool Sports Carnival where the Greenwood Year 10s compete against Year

10s from various other schools Therell be laughter smiles sweat and maybe even some blood letrsquos

hope not Were sure itll be a fun day for everyone Good luck guys

By the time this article goes to print the Year 10 Drama productions would have concluded Currently

the Year 10 Drama students have been hard at work rehearsing and preparing a compilation of 10

minute plays for everyonersquos enjoyment The production starts on 25 June in the Drama room The

leadership group and Mr Bassanelli have been hard at work planning our Year 10 River Cruise At this

stage it is looking like being held next term in week 7 It is the one and only scheduled social event for

all the Year 10s and should be a fun night

Thank you all for reading Have a nice rest of your term enjoy your holidays and be nice to your mums

First and for most we would like to congratulate Taylor Waterson on achieving a

great milestone in her Rugby career She has represented WA in Women`s Rugby

both league and union for the Western Force She achieved this while juggling Year

12 ATAR and other school commitments We are very proud to have Taylor as a member of our year

group and we look forward to watching her succeed in the years to come

On another light note Zero2hero day is on Friday 22 June It is a mental health charity that was

founded by an ex-greenwood student and it now runs successfully at a variety of schools across Perth

The charities and the schools that run a Zero2hero day over the years have done a great job at raising

awareness and providing support to those of us that struggle with mental illness This year we are

keeping this tradition alive by extending a day of activities to a week ending on Friday with a whole

school assembly and a free dress day

It will be an especially good day for the Music students who embark on their quest to spread their

talents to the four corners of Perth

To end off we would like to remind Year 12 students about the Leaverrsquos Assembly Committee that will

meet on Monday lunch-times to create the most entertaining assembly of the year All are encouraged

to come and contribute to the last piece of our legacy

Hello all as another exciting term at Greenwood College comes to a close we have

new events exclusive to Year 11s coming up early next semester

Firstly to recap the past 9 weeks ATAR students have sat exams which posed as a

great introduction to our following senior years For those who are disappointed with

their result donrsquot stress there is plenty of time to improve before the second set of exams and for those

who did well keep up the incredible work efforts and keep striving for success Congratulations to

everyone

To all the musosrsquo your camp is just around the corner Enjoy your time in the beautiful Swan Valley

canrsquot wait to hear about it on your return Reminder to those interested in attending the Winter Concert

will be held on the Sunday and the camp in the Swan Valley

As we are sure you are all aware this week is Zero2hero week The whole week is to be filled with

communal activities that are sure to spread the positive vibes At the end of the week for our whole

school assembly we have some very special guests attending and trust us you do not want miss them

Finally the night we have all been waiting for - the Year 11 Formal As it is approaching much quicker

than we all thought We suggest you start looking for an outfit now donrsquot forget to dress to impress

Save the date 16 August - more information will be released soon

In the meantime from your Year 11 councillors we hope you enjoy your well-earned two week break

that is rapidly approaching Enjoy yourself stay safe and we will see you again after the break

Helping your child build healthy relationships Every day we interact with many other people You may not like them or agree with them but everyone deserves respect

Parents play an important role in assisting children and young people to build self-respect This leads to the development

of the values and skills needed to express respect to others There may be some variation in what represents respectful

behaviors across different cultures However in any cultural context respect is about behaviors that convey valuing and

caring about another person Helping your child develop the following skills will help them to form healthy respectful

relationships with peers and adults

Understanding and empathy Encourage your child to think about how another person may feel about something

Empathic listening Teach them to listen and show they understand another personrsquos point of view

Anger Management In times of conflict encourage them to think first before speaking stay calm and avoid hurtful

reactions

Conflict resolution Disagreements are normal in any relationship Itrsquos helpful to teach your child that to work

through a problem by understanding another personrsquos point of view To achieve a compromise or agreement is

better than winning an argument that leaves the other person feeling bullied hurt or embarrassed

Problem-solving and decision making skills Rather than you offering solutions for your childrsquos problems hold back

and support your child to generate a few possible solutions themselves Encourage them to think about the impact

of each option on themselves and others before deciding on their action

Honesty In a relationship where there is trust and acceptance there should be no reason to lie and honesty should

be encouraged

Assertiveness Help your child to learn how to stand up for themselves or to speak up about their values or needs in

a way that is non-confrontational and still respects others

On Tuesday 29 May 31 members of the Greenwood College

Vocal Ensemble went on a short excursion to Edith Cowan

University in Mount Lawley and to the Western Australian

Academy of Performing Arts Every Tuesday during the university

semester the Classical Department puts on a lunchtime concert

at 110pm Sometimes there are visiting artists Sometimes

there are local ones Sometimes there are the university

students themselves On this occasion we were treated to a

spectacular performance by Eneksis Vocal Ensemble led by Michael McCarthy one of Australias

leading specialists in Aural training in particular through the methods laid down by Zoltan Kodaly The

ensemble performed a dazzling array of pieces by Taverner Rheinberger Part Busto Biebl and others

in 4 5 6 8 and 10 part harmony all to a very high standard and all with the utmost dedication to

precision detail and expressive effect At the close of the concert more than one student commented

that some of the harmonies had given them goosebumps They were both surprised and inspired by this

particular effect We often hear about how music and sound can influence the human body but we

d o n t a l w a y s f i n d

ourselves quite so aware

of this experience After a

short afternoon tea the

students then made their

way back to the College in

time for their usual

rehearsal after school Im

so very pleased that the

students enjoyed this

special performance and

look forward to similar

outings in the future

On Friday 15 June the students and staff of the Music Department held it annual Term 2 lunchtime

Amphitheatre Rock Band Concert The Year 11 and Year 12 students of the Certificate II class were

tasked with setting up the ever increasing array of equipment required for these kinds of events Itrsquos

difficult to get these items placed on stage in time to perform let alone connected up working and

sounding as they should It requires considerable preparation and practice on the part of the students

as well as a willingness to sacrifice ones own lunch break for

the entertainment of the school There are always issues to

overcome in order to put this event on The students did an

excellent job under the circumstances First up were the Year

10-12 Senior Rock Band The Nameless with Hysteria Our

second item was presented by the Year 9-10 Intermediate

Rock Band Legacy with Rain Our third and fourth items

were presented by the Year 7-9 Junior Rock Bands Fire amp Ice

and Capacity performing Wild Thing and Better than

Revenge respectively The event serves to entertain the

students of the College as well as create a date that the

ensembles must be prepared for before then embarking on

the annual Primary School Music Tour The lunchtime concert

was very well attended with few seats spare around the

Amphitheatre My thanks to Mr Swain and Mrs Pattison the

ensembles directors for their hard work dedication and

willingness to go above and beyond to prepare our students

for these performances I am very proud of our students work

and look forward to showcasing their talents at Goollelal and

Halidon Primary School on Friday 22 June

With the World Cup in full swing it would be fair to say that Soccer has never been so popular at

Greenwood College The 2018 season saw the school field 3 Teams Senior Boys u18rsquos that are led by

Dale Gannaway with the intermediate boys (u16) and Senior Girls (u18) being coached by yours truly

The biggest group we had by far was the intermediate boys We had too many for one team but not quite

enough for two which proves that there is a huge demand for the sport here Senior Girls had a mix of

junior and more experienced players while the Senior Boys has mostly experienced players with some

debutants stepping up from last years intermediate boys team

The Senior Girls had some brilliant moments in their season

Captained by Raquyah Hameed they showed some real promise in

their first game despite going down 3-0 to Duncraig SHS Their

second game against Carine SHS was far better with more

possession and shots on goal but neither team was able to break

the deadlock and the girls walked away with their first points with 0

-0 draw A forfeit from Mater Dei gave the girls their first win but

their best game was their last game against Quinns Baptist College

The Girls lost 4-1 to them last year however this time around lead

the game 1-0 right into the second half when a mixture of fatigue

as well as a heavy dose rain saw Quinns score 2 quick goals to win the match 2-1 Our standout players

throughout the season were Chelsea Downes Asha Malde and Jacinta and Isobel Boyce

The Intermediate Boys had another tough season however the

score lines were remarkably smaller than last season A crunching

7-1 loss to Ashdale followed by a narrow 2-1 loss to Shenton

showed the boys were improving Their last game against

Churchlands was very tight in the first half with multiple chances

on goal in the first half but somehow not finding the back of the

net The second half saw Churchlands run away with a 6-0 win

Honourable mentions go to Milad Safari Jigme Dorji and Atanas

Atanasav

The Senior Boys had a mixed season They started well with a resounding 3-0 win over St Stephens the

following week saw a narrow loss to Mater Dei despite the boys playing some brilliant soccer A forfeit

from Quinns gave them a 3-0 win on paper and they needed to win their recent clash with Balga SHS to

keep their finals hopes alive Sadly despite some valiant efforts from the likes of OT Mbafumoja Regis

Gatambiye Ahmed Omer and Aaron Deeks it wasnrsquot enough with Balga taking a 2-0 win There is one

more game left in the group stage which will be an away game on 25 June against Duncraig SHS

Despite our season earlier than we normally would like you can still enjoy the World Cup

The Year 9 Outdoor Education class set out on a fishing expedition to Rottnest island on Thursday

31 May The class spent weeks preparing for the expedition learning how to set up rigs tie knots

cast out and how to snag a big one The week leading up to Rottnest had high anticipation

throughout the class the question was ldquowho was going to get the biggest catchrdquo

As the morning arrived a dark and cold chill shivered through everyone ldquooh wait thatrsquos just the

weatherrdquo A storm had decided to hit the Perth coast in full force and provided not only challenging

fishing conditions but a crazy boat ride over The weather didnrsquot seem to dampen the morale of the

class although the boat ride would soon change this You know itrsquos a good start to a boat ride when

they hand you a sick bag as you boardhelliphellip

As we left Hillaryrsquos harbour there was laughter and jokes getting thrown around until the boat

stepped out into the ocean swell and the only thing that was getting thrown around were screams from

students and the odd little vomit Some thought this was the end With the skill of the Captain or just

luck of the draw we landed safe on the island With the crazy ride over there was a sigh of relief ldquoyayrdquo

fishing time

We had keen fishermen on our hands We delegated the fishing gear out and started our trek by foot

our destinationmdash the Army jetty The fish were about to get a shock

As we arrived it was still pouring with rain and down to 10 degrees but this didnrsquot stop any ldquooutdoor

eagersrdquo With the likes of AJ no shoes no jumper and just shorts he was running to the water to get

first cast and have the chance of bragging rights for the first catch Within minutes there wasnrsquot a ldquodryrdquo

seat in the house with all students out wetting a line

Moral was high although it was a slow start to the day The only thing getting reeled in was seaweed or a

cold BANG Harry Burt is on The rod has a big bend to it and it looks to be a big onehellip hold onhellip waithellip

what is that thing ldquoSir I caught someonersquos underwearrdquo Well at least we werenrsquot going home empty

handed

With the first catch being a pair of underwear things were starting to look south The class kept at it

battling the weather they started to hit the target The fish were biting and the race was on The fish

started to get pulled in and the smiles and bragging rights started to flow The rain still coming down

sideways in buckets While Mr Tippet Mrs Tkachenko and Mr Gillespie tackled the weather with the

students Mr Walczak kept cosy under the shelter with his knitted blanket and gloves With the fishing

coming to an end Jayden was crowned Champion Angler with a total count of 12 fish Despite the

protest from Harry with his imaginary 10ft snapper that magically got away

With the gear packed up it was time to start the hike back to the boat With the boat ride we had

coming to Rottnest I think the return boat ride was on everyonersquos thoughts With a small debrief of the

day and a bit of free time to go get some food we boarded the boat and set sail for Hillaryrsquos boat

harbour The ride home was smooth sailing as the wind was low and we had the swell on our side A

safe landing at the boat harbour had topped off the trip of on a good note and left everyone with plenty

of stories to tell

O U T D O O R E D ( P R A C T E A C H E R )

The 1st of June - day two of the Year 9s fishing expedition had commenced The sun was out spirits

were high and the sea was friendly to 50 of the class which managed to keep their breakfast in

In a lot of ways group oneday 1 and group twoday 2 were polar opposites The boat ride on the

second day was majestic compared to the ldquorollierdquo tides on day one Thunderstorms and heavy rain

one day - bright and sunny days on the next Day two students were blessed to say the least

Mr Bean kept those of who didnrsquot vomit entertained for the 40-45-minute trip with his timeless

humour Mr Gillespie tried working on his lesson plans but soon realised student numbers of sea

sickness was on the rise and other students were growing restless The seasick students were

quickly bundled upstairs to grab some fresh air with teachers to console them and their upset stomachs

Arriving at Rottnest the students were eager to replenish their recently empty stomachs putting Subway

and the local bakery into overdrive On a personal note the pies and pastries were an absolute dime

and are a MUST try After the students consumed the majority of Subwaysrsquo stock and took many selfies

with quokkas as physically possible we set out to acquire our sweet rides for the day

Mr Tippet refused Mr Gillespiersquos offer to take a tandem bike and was therefore designated the work

horse for the day and was given the trailer to cart around Mrs Tkachenko was the ever proficient and

gallant ldquopack leaderrdquo Mr Erwin the squad ldquomechanicmedicrdquo and Mr Gillespie was ldquochief motivatorall-

round utilityrdquo The students were responsible for their own equipment and had become giddy with

excitement once the sweet rides were obtained

We then set off to Salmon Bay to fish the sea dry There were ups and downs but there were more ups

then downshellip then we arrived Mr Erwinsrsquo skill as a bike technician came in handy multiple times on the

arduous journey while the students struggled to keep pace with the lightning fast Mrs Tkachenko Mr

Tippet took the fable of the tortoise and the hair very literally and kept a solid pace the entire way giving

his well-manicured legs a workout he would never forget

The word lsquoscenicrsquo comes to mind when reaching our destination with the lighthouse in the background

the sun beaming down the beautiful hilly terrain meeting the rocks and the tide gracefully touching the

sand with seaweed in massive clumps creating an interesting aroma Were we lucky to be fishing today

Now it was time for all the ground work done in class to rise to the occasion and begin fishing The girls

went off to a flying start and finished the day with a grand total of 37 fish Special mentions to Ella

Mason and Ashley Mathies who contributed ten fish between them and Marli Rabe who contributed with

a hefty four

Atanas Atanasoy caught the ldquoCATCH OF THE DAYrdquo - a 30cm Skippy which he took home for dinner

Sasha Babic and Rory Noonan had four each After the long glorious successful day we managed to

pack up without a hitch and ride back along the smooth road of Rottnest Except Mr Tippet (the work

horse) had to cart the supplies back with no help The students then tracked down the quokkas for more

selfies and finished their day with delicious pies and Subway before the setting sail back to the

motherland

Mr Bean managed to keep the extremely tired students entertained Their stomachs had settled we set

off once again having conquered Rottenest to our rear and dry land to our front In summary everyone

had a great day coming home wreaking of successful fishing

Attendance Heroes Drum roll helliphelliphelliphelliphelliphelliphelliphelliphelliphellip

The semester 1 Attendance Competition was won by the Year 7s with an

attendance percentage of 95 which was slightly better than the Year 8s with

92 That is a seriously commendable result for the year 7s and Ms Cook Third

place was taken by the Year 11s with 92 followed by the 9s and 10s on 91

and finally the 12s on 88 Well done to the students and to the respective Year

Coordinators Perhaps there will be a sausage sizzle as a reward

Sarah Asher Very sadly we had to say goodbye recently to Sarah Asher

our absolutely brilliant Student Support Officer Sarah has

worked at Greenwood College for nearly three years and in

that time she has had such a positive impact on this

school She has changed the lives of many of our young

people and is held in exceptionally high regard by staff

parents and most importantly students In 28 years of

education I have never seen a farewell to a staff member

like the one Sarah received As you can see by the photo

Sarah took home many gifts and many many cards

Sarah has left a wonderful legacy from her time here She is embarking on a new career

with Anglicare and we wish her all the best You will be missed Sarah

At Greenwood College we are busy focusing on our present Year 10 students and their subject

selections for their final years at Greenwood as well as directing Year 12 students towards their

pathways from school in to the world of work training and study With this in mind students should be

exploring industries and career pathways In this newsletter I will be detailing relevant and engaging

resources suitable for students at the College

Australiarsquos population is changing The population is getting older more females are in paid work and

the number of school aged children is growing Demand is likely to grow for aged care childcare home

based care and education services

Housing construction investment in infrastructure (like roads railways and airports)

tourism activity and the international education sector are expected to stay strong

The number and type of job openings available in the future will depend on things

like

turnover (workers leaving their job to do things like study move to another job

care for a family member retire or travel)

demand for goods and services

demand for resources

changes in technology

Industry Outlook

Over the 5 years to 2022 the department expects the largest job growth will be in

Health Care and Social Assistance

Professional Scientific and Technical Services

Construction

By 2022 there will probably be fewer jobs in

Manufacturing

Electricity Gas Water and Waste Services

Agriculture Forestry and Fishing

These are important industries and turnover will provide opportunities for workers with the right skills

Some parts of these industries (like Food Product Manufacturing) are expected to

grow

Career Outlook

The department expects there will be many new jobs for Professionals Community

and Personal Service Workers Some of the jobs expected to grow the most are

Registered Nurses

Aged and Disabled Carers

Accountants

Electricians

Some jobs need more training now than they used to (like Child Carers in day care centres) and most of

the new jobs created over the next few years will be higher skilled There are millions of lower skilled

jobs and these can be rewarding careers or pathways to other jobs

Employer needs can change quickly Workers who are willing to learn gain experience and build their

skills will be well placed to find and keep a job

Snapshots of many key industries provide information on salaries in related jobs employment trends in

the industry and what type of work you can expect if you pursue a career in the area Access this link

and explore relevant and up to date information regarding a variety of elements from salary training

and industry growth Over 30 Industries are detailed

On the Greenwood College immediate front we have many opportunities arising for our students to

complete further training Presently a wealth of opportunities are being offered to students for delivery

at TAFE and other providersrsquo sites for one day a week commencing in 2019 Please keep an eye on the

daily notices and ask your student to continue to visit Ms Gatey for further training opportunities

Hi again Year 8s

This term has been a very busy term and is coming to an end We have had the

Lightning Carnival earlier in the term in which students tried their very best in

Soccer Basketball Netball and Volleyball The PE department were very pleased with how we

represented the school We were also very glad to have a long weekend break after working very hard

for that part of the term

Recently we had Elevate Education visit us and give us a talk called Junior Time Management in which

we learnt about how to balance our personal time with our study and homework We were also

rewarded with a sausage sizzle from Miss Arns and the Student Services team for our hard work this

term

Coming up in week 8 we have our Zero2hero week This week is all about supporting the charity called

Zero2hero which raises money for suicide prevention and was created by an ex-Greenwood student

Throughout the week Student Services have organised special

events such as mechanical bull and an obstacle course and a big

assembly on the Friday

As well as this we have Music Camp in week 8 and a HASS

excursion to Kings Park As you can tell

this is an incredibly busy week In week

9 we are being given our Semester One

Reports hopefully everyone has tried

their best this semester

After all this we have HOLIDAYS

In week 6 students from 41 42 and 43 went on an excursion to the State

Library and the Art Gallery of WA There were 41 of us so we split up into two

groups Each group had a session in the library and in the art gallery

In the Art Gallery we had to search for works of Art using clues and then write down what we saw and

what we thought In the library we attended a session called lsquoFun With Fairytalesrsquo We used ipads to

take photos for fairytales we have been studying Back at school we are using the Book Creator app on

the ipads to retell our fairytale with our photos We all know our fairytales very well now

Students from 31 32 33 and 34 went on an excursion to Caversham Wildlife Park in week 7 They

saw lots of Australian native animals and had a great day out

On 28 June students from the 4s classes will be graduating We are looking forward to the ceremony

and the excursion to bowling Some students will be moving to new schools and we hope they will stay

in touch with the friends they have made at Greenwood

Term 2 started off well with all the Year 7s finally settling into high school

Everyone knows each other and is getting along well In Week 5 it was the

Year 7 Lighting Carnival We had to choose from the sports Netball Volleyball

Soccer and Football and most sports competed against other schools We started training in week 2

with every sport and health lesson spent playing our selected sports Everyone was excited for the

carnival and played to the best of their abilities with two Netball teams placing 3rd in their Division

Overall it was a great day and everyone had fun

As we are coming to the end of Term 2 everyone is eager for the holidays to arrive So far College has

been amazing and we canrsquot wait to see what happens next

Hi guys This is the second newsletter for the year so far Itrsquos the end of week 7

and a lot has happened Letrsquos outline a few of the eventshellip (Probably not in

chronological order though)

Up first NAPLAN What a nerve-racking week There was a lot of grumbling and

groaning but I think we were all glad to be rid of the tests the next week Unfortunately for us the Big

Science Competition was on the same week More stress am I right But soon all the tests were over and

done with thank goodness for that

The Year 9s were also visited by Mr Luke Kennedy He came to talk to us about the effect labels can have

on us and that these labels donrsquot define us We really hope that every Year 9 present took his words to

heart Also this term the Year 9 Outdoor Education classes went to Rottnest The 9s had a heap of fun

fishing and biking Unfortunately for them though the water was rough and more than a few people were

sick After Rottnest came the School Sports Netball Carnival There were a lot of Year 9 girls participating

and they all had a great time playing against the top schools wining some and losing some The Division

1 team (a group of Year 9s10s) even came first in their division They will be participating in the finals

rounds in Fremantle later on this term

Last but not least the Lightning Carnival The Year 9 Lightning Carnival was yesterday the fourteenth All

the Year 9s participated and had a great fun-filled and enjoyable day The sports that were played were

Volleyball Basketball Netball Football and Soccer The Year 9s played at a range of different venues with

supporters on all sides This yearrsquos carnival was the second last wersquoll ever have and were all really sad

But wersquoll definitely make the most of our last Lightning Carnival next year

Well thatrsquos it for this term Itrsquos only a nine week term but it has been packed So much stuff has

happened some of it fun some of it not so much But wersquore all thoroughly enjoying this term so far and

Irsquom sure when we check in next term wersquoll have lots more to tell

Weve just had our immunisations against Meningococcal and have been

hard at work preparing for the year ahead of us We also have many

upcoming events such as an Interschool Sports Carnival a Drama

performance and the River Cruise

Meningococcal is a hard word to say and an even harder one to spell honestly who even names these

diseases Anyway the Year 10s had our immunisations against it so we most likely wont even have to

care how to say it or spell it For some this needle was their worst nightmare for others it was just a

free lolly and some skipped class time Either way it is over now so we can breathe a sigh of relief

Year 11 and 12 are very crucial years in a studentrsquos schooling so there needs to be a lot of preparation

to ensure theyre done right As Year 10 students going into Year 11 we have been in the process of

selecting our Year 11 subjects We have read the booklets of information about our upcoming subjects

and what they have to offer received our recommendations from our teachers for subjects next year

and had multiple meetings about it all The whole process ends on 22 June when our subject selection

sheets our due into the front office Before then many students and their parents will attend a

counselling session with a designated counsellor to go through their choices on their subject

recommendation sheets What is with all the preparation though Well the school wants us to be

prepared for Year 11 and 12 to ensure we can achieve our WACE (Western Australian Certificate of

Education) and allow for the smoothest transition into upper school ATAR students will most likely

attend university General students will either attend TAFE or seek alternative entrance to university

and Foundation students will most likely be seeking immediate employment in the workforce This all

sounds very scary and sudden but that is why we have lots and lots of preparation Just remember

kids it will be okay

Coming up is our Interschool Sports Carnival where the Greenwood Year 10s compete against Year

10s from various other schools Therell be laughter smiles sweat and maybe even some blood letrsquos

hope not Were sure itll be a fun day for everyone Good luck guys

By the time this article goes to print the Year 10 Drama productions would have concluded Currently

the Year 10 Drama students have been hard at work rehearsing and preparing a compilation of 10

minute plays for everyonersquos enjoyment The production starts on 25 June in the Drama room The

leadership group and Mr Bassanelli have been hard at work planning our Year 10 River Cruise At this

stage it is looking like being held next term in week 7 It is the one and only scheduled social event for

all the Year 10s and should be a fun night

Thank you all for reading Have a nice rest of your term enjoy your holidays and be nice to your mums

First and for most we would like to congratulate Taylor Waterson on achieving a

great milestone in her Rugby career She has represented WA in Women`s Rugby

both league and union for the Western Force She achieved this while juggling Year

12 ATAR and other school commitments We are very proud to have Taylor as a member of our year

group and we look forward to watching her succeed in the years to come

On another light note Zero2hero day is on Friday 22 June It is a mental health charity that was

founded by an ex-greenwood student and it now runs successfully at a variety of schools across Perth

The charities and the schools that run a Zero2hero day over the years have done a great job at raising

awareness and providing support to those of us that struggle with mental illness This year we are

keeping this tradition alive by extending a day of activities to a week ending on Friday with a whole

school assembly and a free dress day

It will be an especially good day for the Music students who embark on their quest to spread their

talents to the four corners of Perth

To end off we would like to remind Year 12 students about the Leaverrsquos Assembly Committee that will

meet on Monday lunch-times to create the most entertaining assembly of the year All are encouraged

to come and contribute to the last piece of our legacy

Hello all as another exciting term at Greenwood College comes to a close we have

new events exclusive to Year 11s coming up early next semester

Firstly to recap the past 9 weeks ATAR students have sat exams which posed as a

great introduction to our following senior years For those who are disappointed with

their result donrsquot stress there is plenty of time to improve before the second set of exams and for those

who did well keep up the incredible work efforts and keep striving for success Congratulations to

everyone

To all the musosrsquo your camp is just around the corner Enjoy your time in the beautiful Swan Valley

canrsquot wait to hear about it on your return Reminder to those interested in attending the Winter Concert

will be held on the Sunday and the camp in the Swan Valley

As we are sure you are all aware this week is Zero2hero week The whole week is to be filled with

communal activities that are sure to spread the positive vibes At the end of the week for our whole

school assembly we have some very special guests attending and trust us you do not want miss them

Finally the night we have all been waiting for - the Year 11 Formal As it is approaching much quicker

than we all thought We suggest you start looking for an outfit now donrsquot forget to dress to impress

Save the date 16 August - more information will be released soon

In the meantime from your Year 11 councillors we hope you enjoy your well-earned two week break

that is rapidly approaching Enjoy yourself stay safe and we will see you again after the break

Helping your child build healthy relationships Every day we interact with many other people You may not like them or agree with them but everyone deserves respect

Parents play an important role in assisting children and young people to build self-respect This leads to the development

of the values and skills needed to express respect to others There may be some variation in what represents respectful

behaviors across different cultures However in any cultural context respect is about behaviors that convey valuing and

caring about another person Helping your child develop the following skills will help them to form healthy respectful

relationships with peers and adults

Understanding and empathy Encourage your child to think about how another person may feel about something

Empathic listening Teach them to listen and show they understand another personrsquos point of view

Anger Management In times of conflict encourage them to think first before speaking stay calm and avoid hurtful

reactions

Conflict resolution Disagreements are normal in any relationship Itrsquos helpful to teach your child that to work

through a problem by understanding another personrsquos point of view To achieve a compromise or agreement is

better than winning an argument that leaves the other person feeling bullied hurt or embarrassed

Problem-solving and decision making skills Rather than you offering solutions for your childrsquos problems hold back

and support your child to generate a few possible solutions themselves Encourage them to think about the impact

of each option on themselves and others before deciding on their action

Honesty In a relationship where there is trust and acceptance there should be no reason to lie and honesty should

be encouraged

Assertiveness Help your child to learn how to stand up for themselves or to speak up about their values or needs in

a way that is non-confrontational and still respects others

On Tuesday 29 May 31 members of the Greenwood College

Vocal Ensemble went on a short excursion to Edith Cowan

University in Mount Lawley and to the Western Australian

Academy of Performing Arts Every Tuesday during the university

semester the Classical Department puts on a lunchtime concert

at 110pm Sometimes there are visiting artists Sometimes

there are local ones Sometimes there are the university

students themselves On this occasion we were treated to a

spectacular performance by Eneksis Vocal Ensemble led by Michael McCarthy one of Australias

leading specialists in Aural training in particular through the methods laid down by Zoltan Kodaly The

ensemble performed a dazzling array of pieces by Taverner Rheinberger Part Busto Biebl and others

in 4 5 6 8 and 10 part harmony all to a very high standard and all with the utmost dedication to

precision detail and expressive effect At the close of the concert more than one student commented

that some of the harmonies had given them goosebumps They were both surprised and inspired by this

particular effect We often hear about how music and sound can influence the human body but we

d o n t a l w a y s f i n d

ourselves quite so aware

of this experience After a

short afternoon tea the

students then made their

way back to the College in

time for their usual

rehearsal after school Im

so very pleased that the

students enjoyed this

special performance and

look forward to similar

outings in the future

On Friday 15 June the students and staff of the Music Department held it annual Term 2 lunchtime

Amphitheatre Rock Band Concert The Year 11 and Year 12 students of the Certificate II class were

tasked with setting up the ever increasing array of equipment required for these kinds of events Itrsquos

difficult to get these items placed on stage in time to perform let alone connected up working and

sounding as they should It requires considerable preparation and practice on the part of the students

as well as a willingness to sacrifice ones own lunch break for

the entertainment of the school There are always issues to

overcome in order to put this event on The students did an

excellent job under the circumstances First up were the Year

10-12 Senior Rock Band The Nameless with Hysteria Our

second item was presented by the Year 9-10 Intermediate

Rock Band Legacy with Rain Our third and fourth items

were presented by the Year 7-9 Junior Rock Bands Fire amp Ice

and Capacity performing Wild Thing and Better than

Revenge respectively The event serves to entertain the

students of the College as well as create a date that the

ensembles must be prepared for before then embarking on

the annual Primary School Music Tour The lunchtime concert

was very well attended with few seats spare around the

Amphitheatre My thanks to Mr Swain and Mrs Pattison the

ensembles directors for their hard work dedication and

willingness to go above and beyond to prepare our students

for these performances I am very proud of our students work

and look forward to showcasing their talents at Goollelal and

Halidon Primary School on Friday 22 June

With the World Cup in full swing it would be fair to say that Soccer has never been so popular at

Greenwood College The 2018 season saw the school field 3 Teams Senior Boys u18rsquos that are led by

Dale Gannaway with the intermediate boys (u16) and Senior Girls (u18) being coached by yours truly

The biggest group we had by far was the intermediate boys We had too many for one team but not quite

enough for two which proves that there is a huge demand for the sport here Senior Girls had a mix of

junior and more experienced players while the Senior Boys has mostly experienced players with some

debutants stepping up from last years intermediate boys team

The Senior Girls had some brilliant moments in their season

Captained by Raquyah Hameed they showed some real promise in

their first game despite going down 3-0 to Duncraig SHS Their

second game against Carine SHS was far better with more

possession and shots on goal but neither team was able to break

the deadlock and the girls walked away with their first points with 0

-0 draw A forfeit from Mater Dei gave the girls their first win but

their best game was their last game against Quinns Baptist College

The Girls lost 4-1 to them last year however this time around lead

the game 1-0 right into the second half when a mixture of fatigue

as well as a heavy dose rain saw Quinns score 2 quick goals to win the match 2-1 Our standout players

throughout the season were Chelsea Downes Asha Malde and Jacinta and Isobel Boyce

The Intermediate Boys had another tough season however the

score lines were remarkably smaller than last season A crunching

7-1 loss to Ashdale followed by a narrow 2-1 loss to Shenton

showed the boys were improving Their last game against

Churchlands was very tight in the first half with multiple chances

on goal in the first half but somehow not finding the back of the

net The second half saw Churchlands run away with a 6-0 win

Honourable mentions go to Milad Safari Jigme Dorji and Atanas

Atanasav

The Senior Boys had a mixed season They started well with a resounding 3-0 win over St Stephens the

following week saw a narrow loss to Mater Dei despite the boys playing some brilliant soccer A forfeit

from Quinns gave them a 3-0 win on paper and they needed to win their recent clash with Balga SHS to

keep their finals hopes alive Sadly despite some valiant efforts from the likes of OT Mbafumoja Regis

Gatambiye Ahmed Omer and Aaron Deeks it wasnrsquot enough with Balga taking a 2-0 win There is one

more game left in the group stage which will be an away game on 25 June against Duncraig SHS

Despite our season earlier than we normally would like you can still enjoy the World Cup

The Year 9 Outdoor Education class set out on a fishing expedition to Rottnest island on Thursday

31 May The class spent weeks preparing for the expedition learning how to set up rigs tie knots

cast out and how to snag a big one The week leading up to Rottnest had high anticipation

throughout the class the question was ldquowho was going to get the biggest catchrdquo

As the morning arrived a dark and cold chill shivered through everyone ldquooh wait thatrsquos just the

weatherrdquo A storm had decided to hit the Perth coast in full force and provided not only challenging

fishing conditions but a crazy boat ride over The weather didnrsquot seem to dampen the morale of the

class although the boat ride would soon change this You know itrsquos a good start to a boat ride when

they hand you a sick bag as you boardhelliphellip

As we left Hillaryrsquos harbour there was laughter and jokes getting thrown around until the boat

stepped out into the ocean swell and the only thing that was getting thrown around were screams from

students and the odd little vomit Some thought this was the end With the skill of the Captain or just

luck of the draw we landed safe on the island With the crazy ride over there was a sigh of relief ldquoyayrdquo

fishing time

We had keen fishermen on our hands We delegated the fishing gear out and started our trek by foot

our destinationmdash the Army jetty The fish were about to get a shock

As we arrived it was still pouring with rain and down to 10 degrees but this didnrsquot stop any ldquooutdoor

eagersrdquo With the likes of AJ no shoes no jumper and just shorts he was running to the water to get

first cast and have the chance of bragging rights for the first catch Within minutes there wasnrsquot a ldquodryrdquo

seat in the house with all students out wetting a line

Moral was high although it was a slow start to the day The only thing getting reeled in was seaweed or a

cold BANG Harry Burt is on The rod has a big bend to it and it looks to be a big onehellip hold onhellip waithellip

what is that thing ldquoSir I caught someonersquos underwearrdquo Well at least we werenrsquot going home empty

handed

With the first catch being a pair of underwear things were starting to look south The class kept at it

battling the weather they started to hit the target The fish were biting and the race was on The fish

started to get pulled in and the smiles and bragging rights started to flow The rain still coming down

sideways in buckets While Mr Tippet Mrs Tkachenko and Mr Gillespie tackled the weather with the

students Mr Walczak kept cosy under the shelter with his knitted blanket and gloves With the fishing

coming to an end Jayden was crowned Champion Angler with a total count of 12 fish Despite the

protest from Harry with his imaginary 10ft snapper that magically got away

With the gear packed up it was time to start the hike back to the boat With the boat ride we had

coming to Rottnest I think the return boat ride was on everyonersquos thoughts With a small debrief of the

day and a bit of free time to go get some food we boarded the boat and set sail for Hillaryrsquos boat

harbour The ride home was smooth sailing as the wind was low and we had the swell on our side A

safe landing at the boat harbour had topped off the trip of on a good note and left everyone with plenty

of stories to tell

O U T D O O R E D ( P R A C T E A C H E R )

The 1st of June - day two of the Year 9s fishing expedition had commenced The sun was out spirits

were high and the sea was friendly to 50 of the class which managed to keep their breakfast in

In a lot of ways group oneday 1 and group twoday 2 were polar opposites The boat ride on the

second day was majestic compared to the ldquorollierdquo tides on day one Thunderstorms and heavy rain

one day - bright and sunny days on the next Day two students were blessed to say the least

Mr Bean kept those of who didnrsquot vomit entertained for the 40-45-minute trip with his timeless

humour Mr Gillespie tried working on his lesson plans but soon realised student numbers of sea

sickness was on the rise and other students were growing restless The seasick students were

quickly bundled upstairs to grab some fresh air with teachers to console them and their upset stomachs

Arriving at Rottnest the students were eager to replenish their recently empty stomachs putting Subway

and the local bakery into overdrive On a personal note the pies and pastries were an absolute dime

and are a MUST try After the students consumed the majority of Subwaysrsquo stock and took many selfies

with quokkas as physically possible we set out to acquire our sweet rides for the day

Mr Tippet refused Mr Gillespiersquos offer to take a tandem bike and was therefore designated the work

horse for the day and was given the trailer to cart around Mrs Tkachenko was the ever proficient and

gallant ldquopack leaderrdquo Mr Erwin the squad ldquomechanicmedicrdquo and Mr Gillespie was ldquochief motivatorall-

round utilityrdquo The students were responsible for their own equipment and had become giddy with

excitement once the sweet rides were obtained

We then set off to Salmon Bay to fish the sea dry There were ups and downs but there were more ups

then downshellip then we arrived Mr Erwinsrsquo skill as a bike technician came in handy multiple times on the

arduous journey while the students struggled to keep pace with the lightning fast Mrs Tkachenko Mr

Tippet took the fable of the tortoise and the hair very literally and kept a solid pace the entire way giving

his well-manicured legs a workout he would never forget

The word lsquoscenicrsquo comes to mind when reaching our destination with the lighthouse in the background

the sun beaming down the beautiful hilly terrain meeting the rocks and the tide gracefully touching the

sand with seaweed in massive clumps creating an interesting aroma Were we lucky to be fishing today

Now it was time for all the ground work done in class to rise to the occasion and begin fishing The girls

went off to a flying start and finished the day with a grand total of 37 fish Special mentions to Ella

Mason and Ashley Mathies who contributed ten fish between them and Marli Rabe who contributed with

a hefty four

Atanas Atanasoy caught the ldquoCATCH OF THE DAYrdquo - a 30cm Skippy which he took home for dinner

Sasha Babic and Rory Noonan had four each After the long glorious successful day we managed to

pack up without a hitch and ride back along the smooth road of Rottnest Except Mr Tippet (the work

horse) had to cart the supplies back with no help The students then tracked down the quokkas for more

selfies and finished their day with delicious pies and Subway before the setting sail back to the

motherland

Mr Bean managed to keep the extremely tired students entertained Their stomachs had settled we set

off once again having conquered Rottenest to our rear and dry land to our front In summary everyone

had a great day coming home wreaking of successful fishing

At Greenwood College we are busy focusing on our present Year 10 students and their subject

selections for their final years at Greenwood as well as directing Year 12 students towards their

pathways from school in to the world of work training and study With this in mind students should be

exploring industries and career pathways In this newsletter I will be detailing relevant and engaging

resources suitable for students at the College

Australiarsquos population is changing The population is getting older more females are in paid work and

the number of school aged children is growing Demand is likely to grow for aged care childcare home

based care and education services

Housing construction investment in infrastructure (like roads railways and airports)

tourism activity and the international education sector are expected to stay strong

The number and type of job openings available in the future will depend on things

like

turnover (workers leaving their job to do things like study move to another job

care for a family member retire or travel)

Industry Outlook

Over the 5 years to 2022 the department expects the largest job growth will be in

Health Care and Social Assistance

Professional Scientific and Technical Services

Construction

By 2022 there will probably be fewer jobs in

Manufacturing

Electricity Gas Water and Waste Services

Agriculture Forestry and Fishing

These are important industries and turnover will provide opportunities for workers with the right skills

Some parts of these industries (like Food Product Manufacturing) are expected to

grow

Career Outlook

The department expects there will be many new jobs for Professionals Community

and Personal Service Workers Some of the jobs expected to grow the most are

Registered Nurses

Aged and Disabled Carers

Accountants

Electricians

Some jobs need more training now than they used to (like Child Carers in day care centres) and most of

the new jobs created over the next few years will be higher skilled There are millions of lower skilled

jobs and these can be rewarding careers or pathways to other jobs

Employer needs can change quickly Workers who are willing to learn gain experience and build their

skills will be well placed to find and keep a job

Hi again Year 8s

This term has been a very busy term and is coming to an end We have had the

Lightning Carnival earlier in the term in which students tried their very best in

Soccer Basketball Netball and Volleyball The PE department were very pleased with how we

represented the school We were also very glad to have a long weekend break after working very hard

for that part of the term

Recently we had Elevate Education visit us and give us a talk called Junior Time Management in which

we learnt about how to balance our personal time with our study and homework We were also

rewarded with a sausage sizzle from Miss Arns and the Student Services team for our hard work this

term

Coming up in week 8 we have our Zero2hero week This week is all about supporting the charity called

Zero2hero which raises money for suicide prevention and was created by an ex-Greenwood student

Throughout the week Student Services have organised special

events such as mechanical bull and an obstacle course and a big

assembly on the Friday

As well as this we have Music Camp in week 8 and a HASS

excursion to Kings Park As you can tell

this is an incredibly busy week In week

9 we are being given our Semester One

Reports hopefully everyone has tried

their best this semester

After all this we have HOLIDAYS

In week 6 students from 41 42 and 43 went on an excursion to the State

Library and the Art Gallery of WA There were 41 of us so we split up into two

groups Each group had a session in the library and in the art gallery

In the Art Gallery we had to search for works of Art using clues and then write down what we saw and

what we thought In the library we attended a session called lsquoFun With Fairytalesrsquo We used ipads to

take photos for fairytales we have been studying Back at school we are using the Book Creator app on

the ipads to retell our fairytale with our photos We all know our fairytales very well now

Students from 31 32 33 and 34 went on an excursion to Caversham Wildlife Park in week 7 They

saw lots of Australian native animals and had a great day out

On 28 June students from the 4s classes will be graduating We are looking forward to the ceremony

and the excursion to bowling Some students will be moving to new schools and we hope they will stay

in touch with the friends they have made at Greenwood

Term 2 started off well with all the Year 7s finally settling into high school

Everyone knows each other and is getting along well In Week 5 it was the

Year 7 Lighting Carnival We had to choose from the sports Netball Volleyball

Soccer and Football and most sports competed against other schools We started training in week 2

with every sport and health lesson spent playing our selected sports Everyone was excited for the

carnival and played to the best of their abilities with two Netball teams placing 3rd in their Division

Overall it was a great day and everyone had fun

As we are coming to the end of Term 2 everyone is eager for the holidays to arrive So far College has

been amazing and we canrsquot wait to see what happens next

Hi guys This is the second newsletter for the year so far Itrsquos the end of week 7

and a lot has happened Letrsquos outline a few of the eventshellip (Probably not in

chronological order though)

Up first NAPLAN What a nerve-racking week There was a lot of grumbling and

groaning but I think we were all glad to be rid of the tests the next week Unfortunately for us the Big

Science Competition was on the same week More stress am I right But soon all the tests were over and

done with thank goodness for that

The Year 9s were also visited by Mr Luke Kennedy He came to talk to us about the effect labels can have

on us and that these labels donrsquot define us We really hope that every Year 9 present took his words to

heart Also this term the Year 9 Outdoor Education classes went to Rottnest The 9s had a heap of fun

fishing and biking Unfortunately for them though the water was rough and more than a few people were

sick After Rottnest came the School Sports Netball Carnival There were a lot of Year 9 girls participating

and they all had a great time playing against the top schools wining some and losing some The Division

1 team (a group of Year 9s10s) even came first in their division They will be participating in the finals

rounds in Fremantle later on this term

Last but not least the Lightning Carnival The Year 9 Lightning Carnival was yesterday the fourteenth All

the Year 9s participated and had a great fun-filled and enjoyable day The sports that were played were

Volleyball Basketball Netball Football and Soccer The Year 9s played at a range of different venues with

supporters on all sides This yearrsquos carnival was the second last wersquoll ever have and were all really sad

But wersquoll definitely make the most of our last Lightning Carnival next year

Well thatrsquos it for this term Itrsquos only a nine week term but it has been packed So much stuff has

happened some of it fun some of it not so much But wersquore all thoroughly enjoying this term so far and

Irsquom sure when we check in next term wersquoll have lots more to tell

Weve just had our immunisations against Meningococcal and have been

hard at work preparing for the year ahead of us We also have many

upcoming events such as an Interschool Sports Carnival a Drama

performance and the River Cruise

Meningococcal is a hard word to say and an even harder one to spell honestly who even names these

diseases Anyway the Year 10s had our immunisations against it so we most likely wont even have to

care how to say it or spell it For some this needle was their worst nightmare for others it was just a

free lolly and some skipped class time Either way it is over now so we can breathe a sigh of relief

Year 11 and 12 are very crucial years in a studentrsquos schooling so there needs to be a lot of preparation

to ensure theyre done right As Year 10 students going into Year 11 we have been in the process of

selecting our Year 11 subjects We have read the booklets of information about our upcoming subjects

and what they have to offer received our recommendations from our teachers for subjects next year

and had multiple meetings about it all The whole process ends on 22 June when our subject selection

sheets our due into the front office Before then many students and their parents will attend a

counselling session with a designated counsellor to go through their choices on their subject

recommendation sheets What is with all the preparation though Well the school wants us to be

prepared for Year 11 and 12 to ensure we can achieve our WACE (Western Australian Certificate of

Education) and allow for the smoothest transition into upper school ATAR students will most likely

attend university General students will either attend TAFE or seek alternative entrance to university

and Foundation students will most likely be seeking immediate employment in the workforce This all

sounds very scary and sudden but that is why we have lots and lots of preparation Just remember

kids it will be okay

Coming up is our Interschool Sports Carnival where the Greenwood Year 10s compete against Year

10s from various other schools Therell be laughter smiles sweat and maybe even some blood letrsquos

hope not Were sure itll be a fun day for everyone Good luck guys

By the time this article goes to print the Year 10 Drama productions would have concluded Currently

the Year 10 Drama students have been hard at work rehearsing and preparing a compilation of 10

minute plays for everyonersquos enjoyment The production starts on 25 June in the Drama room The

leadership group and Mr Bassanelli have been hard at work planning our Year 10 River Cruise At this

stage it is looking like being held next term in week 7 It is the one and only scheduled social event for

all the Year 10s and should be a fun night

Thank you all for reading Have a nice rest of your term enjoy your holidays and be nice to your mums

First and for most we would like to congratulate Taylor Waterson on achieving a

great milestone in her Rugby career She has represented WA in Women`s Rugby

both league and union for the Western Force She achieved this while juggling Year

12 ATAR and other school commitments We are very proud to have Taylor as a member of our year

group and we look forward to watching her succeed in the years to come

On another light note Zero2hero day is on Friday 22 June It is a mental health charity that was

founded by an ex-greenwood student and it now runs successfully at a variety of schools across Perth

The charities and the schools that run a Zero2hero day over the years have done a great job at raising

awareness and providing support to those of us that struggle with mental illness This year we are

keeping this tradition alive by extending a day of activities to a week ending on Friday with a whole

school assembly and a free dress day

It will be an especially good day for the Music students who embark on their quest to spread their

talents to the four corners of Perth

To end off we would like to remind Year 12 students about the Leaverrsquos Assembly Committee that will

meet on Monday lunch-times to create the most entertaining assembly of the year All are encouraged

to come and contribute to the last piece of our legacy

Hello all as another exciting term at Greenwood College comes to a close we have

new events exclusive to Year 11s coming up early next semester

Firstly to recap the past 9 weeks ATAR students have sat exams which posed as a

great introduction to our following senior years For those who are disappointed with

their result donrsquot stress there is plenty of time to improve before the second set of exams and for those

who did well keep up the incredible work efforts and keep striving for success Congratulations to

everyone

To all the musosrsquo your camp is just around the corner Enjoy your time in the beautiful Swan Valley

canrsquot wait to hear about it on your return Reminder to those interested in attending the Winter Concert

will be held on the Sunday and the camp in the Swan Valley

As we are sure you are all aware this week is Zero2hero week The whole week is to be filled with

communal activities that are sure to spread the positive vibes At the end of the week for our whole

school assembly we have some very special guests attending and trust us you do not want miss them

Finally the night we have all been waiting for - the Year 11 Formal As it is approaching much quicker

than we all thought We suggest you start looking for an outfit now donrsquot forget to dress to impress

Save the date 16 August - more information will be released soon

In the meantime from your Year 11 councillors we hope you enjoy your well-earned two week break

that is rapidly approaching Enjoy yourself stay safe and we will see you again after the break

Helping your child build healthy relationships Every day we interact with many other people You may not like them or agree with them but everyone deserves respect

Parents play an important role in assisting children and young people to build self-respect This leads to the development

of the values and skills needed to express respect to others There may be some variation in what represents respectful

behaviors across different cultures However in any cultural context respect is about behaviors that convey valuing and

caring about another person Helping your child develop the following skills will help them to form healthy respectful

relationships with peers and adults

Understanding and empathy Encourage your child to think about how another person may feel about something

Empathic listening Teach them to listen and show they understand another personrsquos point of view

Anger Management In times of conflict encourage them to think first before speaking stay calm and avoid hurtful

reactions

Conflict resolution Disagreements are normal in any relationship Itrsquos helpful to teach your child that to work

through a problem by understanding another personrsquos point of view To achieve a compromise or agreement is

better than winning an argument that leaves the other person feeling bullied hurt or embarrassed

Problem-solving and decision making skills Rather than you offering solutions for your childrsquos problems hold back

and support your child to generate a few possible solutions themselves Encourage them to think about the impact

of each option on themselves and others before deciding on their action

Honesty In a relationship where there is trust and acceptance there should be no reason to lie and honesty should

be encouraged

Assertiveness Help your child to learn how to stand up for themselves or to speak up about their values or needs in

a way that is non-confrontational and still respects others

Simone Priestley

On Tuesday 29 May 31 members of the Greenwood College

Vocal Ensemble went on a short excursion to Edith Cowan

University in Mount Lawley and to the Western Australian

Academy of Performing Arts Every Tuesday during the university

semester the Classical Department puts on a lunchtime concert

at 110pm Sometimes there are visiting artists Sometimes

there are local ones Sometimes there are the university

students themselves On this occasion we were treated to a

spectacular performance by Eneksis Vocal Ensemble led by Michael McCarthy one of Australias

leading specialists in Aural training in particular through the methods laid down by Zoltan Kodaly The

ensemble performed a dazzling array of pieces by Taverner Rheinberger Part Busto Biebl and others

in 4 5 6 8 and 10 part harmony all to a very high standard and all with the utmost dedication to

precision detail and expressive effect At the close of the concert more than one student commented

that some of the harmonies had given them goosebumps They were both surprised and inspired by this

particular effect We often hear about how music and sound can influence the human body but we

d o n t a l w a y s f i n d

ourselves quite so aware

of this experience After a

short afternoon tea the

students then made their

way back to the College in

time for their usual

rehearsal after school Im

so very pleased that the

students enjoyed this

special performance and

look forward to similar

outings in the future

On Friday 15 June the students and staff of the Music Department held it annual Term 2 lunchtime

Amphitheatre Rock Band Concert The Year 11 and Year 12 students of the Certificate II class were

tasked with setting up the ever increasing array of equipment required for these kinds of events Itrsquos

difficult to get these items placed on stage in time to perform let alone connected up working and

sounding as they should It requires considerable preparation and practice on the part of the students

as well as a willingness to sacrifice ones own lunch break for

the entertainment of the school There are always issues to

overcome in order to put this event on The students did an

excellent job under the circumstances First up were the Year

10-12 Senior Rock Band The Nameless with Hysteria Our

second item was presented by the Year 9-10 Intermediate

Rock Band Legacy with Rain Our third and fourth items

were presented by the Year 7-9 Junior Rock Bands Fire amp Ice

and Capacity performing Wild Thing and Better than

Revenge respectively The event serves to entertain the

students of the College as well as create a date that the

ensembles must be prepared for before then embarking on

the annual Primary School Music Tour The lunchtime concert

was very well attended with few seats spare around the

Amphitheatre My thanks to Mr Swain and Mrs Pattison the

ensembles directors for their hard work dedication and

willingness to go above and beyond to prepare our students

for these performances I am very proud of our students work

and look forward to showcasing their talents at Goollelal and

Halidon Primary School on Friday 22 June

CONGRATULATIONS to our Greenwood College Year 12 student NICHOLAS FANTINI who has won a photo

competition of an important Australian magazine Photoreview

(wwwphotoreviewcomau)

The article is published in Photoreview magazine of June 2018 see the

relative pages attached

The winning photos are masterful images of two adventurous Latin

America destinations Laguna Colorada in Bolivia and Bloody Red Lake

in the mountains of Chile The waters of these two lagoons have intense

orange hue which is contrasting amazingly with the landscape

The same student has become recently a winner of drone

photography in New Drones of Australia and took a 4th

place in Capture Nature Photo Competition in Joondalup

Greenwood College produces so many amazing

photographershellip

With the World Cup in full swing it would be fair to say that Soccer has never been so popular at

Greenwood College The 2018 season saw the school field 3 Teams Senior Boys u18rsquos that are led by

Dale Gannaway with the intermediate boys (u16) and Senior Girls (u18) being coached by yours truly

The biggest group we had by far was the intermediate boys We had too many for one team but not quite

enough for two which proves that there is a huge demand for the sport here Senior Girls had a mix of

junior and more experienced players while the Senior Boys has mostly experienced players with some

debutants stepping up from last years intermediate boys team

The Senior Girls had some brilliant moments in their season

Captained by Raquyah Hameed they showed some real promise in

their first game despite going down 3-0 to Duncraig SHS Their

second game against Carine SHS was far better with more

possession and shots on goal but neither team was able to break

the deadlock and the girls walked away with their first points with 0

-0 draw A forfeit from Mater Dei gave the girls their first win but

their best game was their last game against Quinns Baptist College

The Girls lost 4-1 to them last year however this time around lead

the game 1-0 right into the second half when a mixture of fatigue

as well as a heavy dose rain saw Quinns score 2 quick goals to win the match 2-1 Our standout players

throughout the season were Chelsea Downes Asha Malde and Jacinta and Isobel Boyce

The Intermediate Boys had another tough season however the

score lines were remarkably smaller than last season A crunching

7-1 loss to Ashdale followed by a narrow 2-1 loss to Shenton

showed the boys were improving Their last game against

Churchlands was very tight in the first half with multiple chances

on goal in the first half but somehow not finding the back of the

net The second half saw Churchlands run away with a 6-0 win

Honourable mentions go to Milad Safari Jigme Dorji and Atanas

Atanasav

The Senior Boys had a mixed season They started well with a resounding 3-0 win over St Stephens the

following week saw a narrow loss to Mater Dei despite the boys playing some brilliant soccer A forfeit

from Quinns gave them a 3-0 win on paper and they needed to win their recent clash with Balga SHS to

keep their finals hopes alive Sadly despite some valiant efforts from the likes of OT Mbafumoja Regis

Gatambiye Ahmed Omer and Aaron Deeks it wasnrsquot enough with Balga taking a 2-0 win There is one

more game left in the group stage which will be an away game on 25 June against Duncraig SHS

Despite our season earlier than we normally would like you can still enjoy the World Cup

The Year 9 Outdoor Education class set out on a fishing expedition to Rottnest island on Thursday

31 May The class spent weeks preparing for the expedition learning how to set up rigs tie knots

cast out and how to snag a big one The week leading up to Rottnest had high anticipation

throughout the class the question was ldquowho was going to get the biggest catchrdquo

As the morning arrived a dark and cold chill shivered through everyone ldquooh wait thatrsquos just the

weatherrdquo A storm had decided to hit the Perth coast in full force and provided not only challenging

fishing conditions but a crazy boat ride over The weather didnrsquot seem to dampen the morale of the

class although the boat ride would soon change this You know itrsquos a good start to a boat ride when

they hand you a sick bag as you boardhelliphellip

As we left Hillaryrsquos harbour there was laughter and jokes getting thrown around until the boat

stepped out into the ocean swell and the only thing that was getting thrown around were screams from

students and the odd little vomit Some thought this was the end With the skill of the Captain or just

luck of the draw we landed safe on the island With the crazy ride over there was a sigh of relief ldquoyayrdquo

fishing time

We had keen fishermen on our hands We delegated the fishing gear out and started our trek by foot

our destinationmdash the Army jetty The fish were about to get a shock

As we arrived it was still pouring with rain and down to 10 degrees but this didnrsquot stop any ldquooutdoor

eagersrdquo With the likes of AJ no shoes no jumper and just shorts he was running to the water to get

first cast and have the chance of bragging rights for the first catch Within minutes there wasnrsquot a ldquodryrdquo

seat in the house with all students out wetting a line

Moral was high although it was a slow start to the day The only thing getting reeled in was seaweed or a

cold BANG Harry Burt is on The rod has a big bend to it and it looks to be a big onehellip hold onhellip waithellip

what is that thing ldquoSir I caught someonersquos underwearrdquo Well at least we werenrsquot going home empty

handed

With the first catch being a pair of underwear things were starting to look south The class kept at it

battling the weather they started to hit the target The fish were biting and the race was on The fish

started to get pulled in and the smiles and bragging rights started to flow The rain still coming down

sideways in buckets While Mr Tippet Mrs Tkachenko and Mr Gillespie tackled the weather with the

students Mr Walczak kept cosy under the shelter with his knitted blanket and gloves With the fishing

coming to an end Jayden was crowned Champion Angler with a total count of 12 fish Despite the

protest from Harry with his imaginary 10ft snapper that magically got away

With the gear packed up it was time to start the hike back to the boat With the boat ride we had

coming to Rottnest I think the return boat ride was on everyonersquos thoughts With a small debrief of the

day and a bit of free time to go get some food we boarded the boat and set sail for Hillaryrsquos boat

harbour The ride home was smooth sailing as the wind was low and we had the swell on our side A

safe landing at the boat harbour had topped off the trip of on a good note and left everyone with plenty

of stories to tell

O U T D O O R E D ( P R A C T E A C H E R )

The 1st of June - day two of the Year 9s fishing expedition had commenced The sun was out spirits

were high and the sea was friendly to 50 of the class which managed to keep their breakfast in

In a lot of ways group oneday 1 and group twoday 2 were polar opposites The boat ride on the

second day was majestic compared to the ldquorollierdquo tides on day one Thunderstorms and heavy rain

one day - bright and sunny days on the next Day two students were blessed to say the least

Mr Bean kept those of who didnrsquot vomit entertained for the 40-45-minute trip with his timeless

humour Mr Gillespie tried working on his lesson plans but soon realised student numbers of sea

sickness was on the rise and other students were growing restless The seasick students were

quickly bundled upstairs to grab some fresh air with teachers to console them and their upset stomachs

Arriving at Rottnest the students were eager to replenish their recently empty stomachs putting Subway

and the local bakery into overdrive On a personal note the pies and pastries were an absolute dime

and are a MUST try After the students consumed the majority of Subwaysrsquo stock and took many selfies

with quokkas as physically possible we set out to acquire our sweet rides for the day

Mr Tippet refused Mr Gillespiersquos offer to take a tandem bike and was therefore designated the work

horse for the day and was given the trailer to cart around Mrs Tkachenko was the ever proficient and

gallant ldquopack leaderrdquo Mr Erwin the squad ldquomechanicmedicrdquo and Mr Gillespie was ldquochief motivatorall-

round utilityrdquo The students were responsible for their own equipment and had become giddy with

excitement once the sweet rides were obtained

We then set off to Salmon Bay to fish the sea dry There were ups and downs but there were more ups

then downshellip then we arrived Mr Erwinsrsquo skill as a bike technician came in handy multiple times on the

arduous journey while the students struggled to keep pace with the lightning fast Mrs Tkachenko Mr

Tippet took the fable of the tortoise and the hair very literally and kept a solid pace the entire way giving

his well-manicured legs a workout he would never forget

The word lsquoscenicrsquo comes to mind when reaching our destination with the lighthouse in the background

the sun beaming down the beautiful hilly terrain meeting the rocks and the tide gracefully touching the

sand with seaweed in massive clumps creating an interesting aroma Were we lucky to be fishing today

Now it was time for all the ground work done in class to rise to the occasion and begin fishing The girls

went off to a flying start and finished the day with a grand total of 37 fish Special mentions to Ella

Mason and Ashley Mathies who contributed ten fish between them and Marli Rabe who contributed with

a hefty four

Atanas Atanasoy caught the ldquoCATCH OF THE DAYrdquo - a 30cm Skippy which he took home for dinner

Sasha Babic and Rory Noonan had four each After the long glorious successful day we managed to

pack up without a hitch and ride back along the smooth road of Rottnest Except Mr Tippet (the work

horse) had to cart the supplies back with no help The students then tracked down the quokkas for more

selfies and finished their day with delicious pies and Subway before the setting sail back to the

motherland

Mr Bean managed to keep the extremely tired students entertained Their stomachs had settled we set

off once again having conquered Rottenest to our rear and dry land to our front In summary everyone

had a great day coming home wreaking of successful fishing

Hi again Year 8s

This term has been a very busy term and is coming to an end We have had the

Lightning Carnival earlier in the term in which students tried their very best in

Soccer Basketball Netball and Volleyball The PE department were very pleased with how we

represented the school We were also very glad to have a long weekend break after working very hard

for that part of the term

Recently we had Elevate Education visit us and give us a talk called Junior Time Management in which

we learnt about how to balance our personal time with our study and homework We were also

rewarded with a sausage sizzle from Miss Arns and the Student Services team for our hard work this

term

Coming up in week 8 we have our Zero2hero week This week is all about supporting the charity called

Zero2hero which raises money for suicide prevention and was created by an ex-Greenwood student

Throughout the week Student Services have organised special

events such as mechanical bull and an obstacle course and a big

assembly on the Friday

As well as this we have Music Camp in week 8 and a HASS

excursion to Kings Park As you can tell

this is an incredibly busy week In week

9 we are being given our Semester One

Reports hopefully everyone has tried

their best this semester

After all this we have HOLIDAYS

In week 6 students from 41 42 and 43 went on an excursion to the State

Library and the Art Gallery of WA There were 41 of us so we split up into two

groups Each group had a session in the library and in the art gallery

In the Art Gallery we had to search for works of Art using clues and then write down what we saw and

what we thought In the library we attended a session called lsquoFun With Fairytalesrsquo We used ipads to

take photos for fairytales we have been studying Back at school we are using the Book Creator app on

the ipads to retell our fairytale with our photos We all know our fairytales very well now

Students from 31 32 33 and 34 went on an excursion to Caversham Wildlife Park in week 7 They

saw lots of Australian native animals and had a great day out

On 28 June students from the 4s classes will be graduating We are looking forward to the ceremony

and the excursion to bowling Some students will be moving to new schools and we hope they will stay

in touch with the friends they have made at Greenwood

Term 2 started off well with all the Year 7s finally settling into high school

Everyone knows each other and is getting along well In Week 5 it was the

Year 7 Lighting Carnival We had to choose from the sports Netball Volleyball

Soccer and Football and most sports competed against other schools We started training in week 2

with every sport and health lesson spent playing our selected sports Everyone was excited for the

carnival and played to the best of their abilities with two Netball teams placing 3rd in their Division

Overall it was a great day and everyone had fun

As we are coming to the end of Term 2 everyone is eager for the holidays to arrive So far College has

been amazing and we canrsquot wait to see what happens next

Hi guys This is the second newsletter for the year so far Itrsquos the end of week 7

and a lot has happened Letrsquos outline a few of the eventshellip (Probably not in

chronological order though)

Up first NAPLAN What a nerve-racking week There was a lot of grumbling and

groaning but I think we were all glad to be rid of the tests the next week Unfortunately for us the Big

Science Competition was on the same week More stress am I right But soon all the tests were over and

done with thank goodness for that

The Year 9s were also visited by Mr Luke Kennedy He came to talk to us about the effect labels can have

on us and that these labels donrsquot define us We really hope that every Year 9 present took his words to

heart Also this term the Year 9 Outdoor Education classes went to Rottnest The 9s had a heap of fun

fishing and biking Unfortunately for them though the water was rough and more than a few people were

sick After Rottnest came the School Sports Netball Carnival There were a lot of Year 9 girls participating

and they all had a great time playing against the top schools wining some and losing some The Division

1 team (a group of Year 9s10s) even came first in their division They will be participating in the finals

rounds in Fremantle later on this term

Last but not least the Lightning Carnival The Year 9 Lightning Carnival was yesterday the fourteenth All

the Year 9s participated and had a great fun-filled and enjoyable day The sports that were played were

Volleyball Basketball Netball Football and Soccer The Year 9s played at a range of different venues with

supporters on all sides This yearrsquos carnival was the second last wersquoll ever have and were all really sad

But wersquoll definitely make the most of our last Lightning Carnival next year

Well thatrsquos it for this term Itrsquos only a nine week term but it has been packed So much stuff has

happened some of it fun some of it not so much But wersquore all thoroughly enjoying this term so far and

Irsquom sure when we check in next term wersquoll have lots more to tell

Weve just had our immunisations against Meningococcal and have been

hard at work preparing for the year ahead of us We also have many

upcoming events such as an Interschool Sports Carnival a Drama

performance and the River Cruise

Meningococcal is a hard word to say and an even harder one to spell honestly who even names these

diseases Anyway the Year 10s had our immunisations against it so we most likely wont even have to

care how to say it or spell it For some this needle was their worst nightmare for others it was just a

free lolly and some skipped class time Either way it is over now so we can breathe a sigh of relief

Year 11 and 12 are very crucial years in a studentrsquos schooling so there needs to be a lot of preparation

to ensure theyre done right As Year 10 students going into Year 11 we have been in the process of

selecting our Year 11 subjects We have read the booklets of information about our upcoming subjects

and what they have to offer received our recommendations from our teachers for subjects next year

and had multiple meetings about it all The whole process ends on 22 June when our subject selection

sheets our due into the front office Before then many students and their parents will attend a

counselling session with a designated counsellor to go through their choices on their subject

recommendation sheets What is with all the preparation though Well the school wants us to be

prepared for Year 11 and 12 to ensure we can achieve our WACE (Western Australian Certificate of

Education) and allow for the smoothest transition into upper school ATAR students will most likely

attend university General students will either attend TAFE or seek alternative entrance to university

and Foundation students will most likely be seeking immediate employment in the workforce This all

sounds very scary and sudden but that is why we have lots and lots of preparation Just remember

kids it will be okay

Coming up is our Interschool Sports Carnival where the Greenwood Year 10s compete against Year

10s from various other schools Therell be laughter smiles sweat and maybe even some blood letrsquos

hope not Were sure itll be a fun day for everyone Good luck guys

By the time this article goes to print the Year 10 Drama productions would have concluded Currently

the Year 10 Drama students have been hard at work rehearsing and preparing a compilation of 10

minute plays for everyonersquos enjoyment The production starts on 25 June in the Drama room The

leadership group and Mr Bassanelli have been hard at work planning our Year 10 River Cruise At this

stage it is looking like being held next term in week 7 It is the one and only scheduled social event for

all the Year 10s and should be a fun night

Thank you all for reading Have a nice rest of your term enjoy your holidays and be nice to your mums

First and for most we would like to congratulate Taylor Waterson on achieving a

great milestone in her Rugby career She has represented WA in Women`s Rugby

both league and union for the Western Force She achieved this while juggling Year

12 ATAR and other school commitments We are very proud to have Taylor as a member of our year

group and we look forward to watching her succeed in the years to come

On another light note Zero2hero day is on Friday 22 June It is a mental health charity that was

founded by an ex-greenwood student and it now runs successfully at a variety of schools across Perth

The charities and the schools that run a Zero2hero day over the years have done a great job at raising

awareness and providing support to those of us that struggle with mental illness This year we are

keeping this tradition alive by extending a day of activities to a week ending on Friday with a whole

school assembly and a free dress day

It will be an especially good day for the Music students who embark on their quest to spread their

talents to the four corners of Perth

To end off we would like to remind Year 12 students about the Leaverrsquos Assembly Committee that will

meet on Monday lunch-times to create the most entertaining assembly of the year All are encouraged

to come and contribute to the last piece of our legacy

Hello all as another exciting term at Greenwood College comes to a close we have

new events exclusive to Year 11s coming up early next semester

Firstly to recap the past 9 weeks ATAR students have sat exams which posed as a

great introduction to our following senior years For those who are disappointed with

their result donrsquot stress there is plenty of time to improve before the second set of exams and for those

who did well keep up the incredible work efforts and keep striving for success Congratulations to

everyone

To all the musosrsquo your camp is just around the corner Enjoy your time in the beautiful Swan Valley

canrsquot wait to hear about it on your return Reminder to those interested in attending the Winter Concert

will be held on the Sunday and the camp in the Swan Valley

As we are sure you are all aware this week is Zero2hero week The whole week is to be filled with

communal activities that are sure to spread the positive vibes At the end of the week for our whole

school assembly we have some very special guests attending and trust us you do not want miss them

Finally the night we have all been waiting for - the Year 11 Formal As it is approaching much quicker

than we all thought We suggest you start looking for an outfit now donrsquot forget to dress to impress

Save the date 16 August - more information will be released soon

In the meantime from your Year 11 councillors we hope you enjoy your well-earned two week break

that is rapidly approaching Enjoy yourself stay safe and we will see you again after the break

Helping your child build healthy relationships Every day we interact with many other people You may not like them or agree with them but everyone deserves respect

Parents play an important role in assisting children and young people to build self-respect This leads to the development

of the values and skills needed to express respect to others There may be some variation in what represents respectful

behaviors across different cultures However in any cultural context respect is about behaviors that convey valuing and

caring about another person Helping your child develop the following skills will help them to form healthy respectful

relationships with peers and adults

Understanding and empathy Encourage your child to think about how another person may feel about something

Empathic listening Teach them to listen and show they understand another personrsquos point of view

Anger Management In times of conflict encourage them to think first before speaking stay calm and avoid hurtful

reactions

Conflict resolution Disagreements are normal in any relationship Itrsquos helpful to teach your child that to work

through a problem by understanding another personrsquos point of view To achieve a compromise or agreement is

better than winning an argument that leaves the other person feeling bullied hurt or embarrassed

Problem-solving and decision making skills Rather than you offering solutions for your childrsquos problems hold back

and support your child to generate a few possible solutions themselves Encourage them to think about the impact

of each option on themselves and others before deciding on their action

Honesty In a relationship where there is trust and acceptance there should be no reason to lie and honesty should

be encouraged

Assertiveness Help your child to learn how to stand up for themselves or to speak up about their values or needs in

a way that is non-confrontational and still respects others

On Tuesday 29 May 31 members of the Greenwood College

Vocal Ensemble went on a short excursion to Edith Cowan

University in Mount Lawley and to the Western Australian

Academy of Performing Arts Every Tuesday during the university

semester the Classical Department puts on a lunchtime concert

at 110pm Sometimes there are visiting artists Sometimes

there are local ones Sometimes there are the university

students themselves On this occasion we were treated to a

spectacular performance by Eneksis Vocal Ensemble led by Michael McCarthy one of Australias

leading specialists in Aural training in particular through the methods laid down by Zoltan Kodaly The

ensemble performed a dazzling array of pieces by Taverner Rheinberger Part Busto Biebl and others

in 4 5 6 8 and 10 part harmony all to a very high standard and all with the utmost dedication to

precision detail and expressive effect At the close of the concert more than one student commented

that some of the harmonies had given them goosebumps They were both surprised and inspired by this

particular effect We often hear about how music and sound can influence the human body but we

d o n t a l w a y s f i n d

ourselves quite so aware

of this experience After a

short afternoon tea the

students then made their

way back to the College in

time for their usual

rehearsal after school Im

so very pleased that the

students enjoyed this

special performance and

look forward to similar

outings in the future

On Friday 15 June the students and staff of the Music Department held it annual Term 2 lunchtime

Amphitheatre Rock Band Concert The Year 11 and Year 12 students of the Certificate II class were

tasked with setting up the ever increasing array of equipment required for these kinds of events Itrsquos

difficult to get these items placed on stage in time to perform let alone connected up working and

sounding as they should It requires considerable preparation and practice on the part of the students

as well as a willingness to sacrifice ones own lunch break for

the entertainment of the school There are always issues to

overcome in order to put this event on The students did an

excellent job under the circumstances First up were the Year

10-12 Senior Rock Band The Nameless with Hysteria Our

second item was presented by the Year 9-10 Intermediate

Rock Band Legacy with Rain Our third and fourth items

were presented by the Year 7-9 Junior Rock Bands Fire amp Ice

and Capacity performing Wild Thing and Better than

Revenge respectively The event serves to entertain the

students of the College as well as create a date that the

ensembles must be prepared for before then embarking on

the annual Primary School Music Tour The lunchtime concert

was very well attended with few seats spare around the

Amphitheatre My thanks to Mr Swain and Mrs Pattison the

ensembles directors for their hard work dedication and

willingness to go above and beyond to prepare our students

for these performances I am very proud of our students work

and look forward to showcasing their talents at Goollelal and

Halidon Primary School on Friday 22 June

CONGRATULATIONS to our Greenwood College Year 12 student NICHOLAS FANTINI who has won a photo

competition of an important Australian magazine Photoreview

(wwwphotoreviewcomau)

The article is published in Photoreview magazine of June 2018 see the

relative pages attached

The winning photos are masterful images of two adventurous Latin

America destinations Laguna Colorada in Bolivia and Bloody Red Lake

in the mountains of Chile The waters of these two lagoons have intense

orange hue which is contrasting amazingly with the landscape

The same student has become recently a winner of drone

photography in New Drones of Australia and took a 4th

place in Capture Nature Photo Competition in Joondalup

Greenwood College produces so many amazing

With the World Cup in full swing it would be fair to say that Soccer has never been so popular at

Greenwood College The 2018 season saw the school field 3 Teams Senior Boys u18rsquos that are led by

Dale Gannaway with the intermediate boys (u16) and Senior Girls (u18) being coached by yours truly

The biggest group we had by far was the intermediate boys We had too many for one team but not quite

enough for two which proves that there is a huge demand for the sport here Senior Girls had a mix of

junior and more experienced players while the Senior Boys has mostly experienced players with some

debutants stepping up from last years intermediate boys team

The Senior Girls had some brilliant moments in their season

Captained by Raquyah Hameed they showed some real promise in

their first game despite going down 3-0 to Duncraig SHS Their

second game against Carine SHS was far better with more

possession and shots on goal but neither team was able to break

the deadlock and the girls walked away with their first points with 0

-0 draw A forfeit from Mater Dei gave the girls their first win but

their best game was their last game against Quinns Baptist College

The Girls lost 4-1 to them last year however this time around lead

the game 1-0 right into the second half when a mixture of fatigue

as well as a heavy dose rain saw Quinns score 2 quick goals to win the match 2-1 Our standout players

throughout the season were Chelsea Downes Asha Malde and Jacinta and Isobel Boyce

The Intermediate Boys had another tough season however the

score lines were remarkably smaller than last season A crunching

7-1 loss to Ashdale followed by a narrow 2-1 loss to Shenton

showed the boys were improving Their last game against

Churchlands was very tight in the first half with multiple chances

on goal in the first half but somehow not finding the back of the

net The second half saw Churchlands run away with a 6-0 win

Honourable mentions go to Milad Safari Jigme Dorji and Atanas

Atanasav

The Senior Boys had a mixed season They started well with a resounding 3-0 win over St Stephens the

following week saw a narrow loss to Mater Dei despite the boys playing some brilliant soccer A forfeit

from Quinns gave them a 3-0 win on paper and they needed to win their recent clash with Balga SHS to

keep their finals hopes alive Sadly despite some valiant efforts from the likes of OT Mbafumoja Regis

Gatambiye Ahmed Omer and Aaron Deeks it wasnrsquot enough with Balga taking a 2-0 win There is one

more game left in the group stage which will be an away game on 25 June against Duncraig SHS

Despite our season earlier than we normally would like you can still enjoy the World Cup

The Year 9 Outdoor Education class set out on a fishing expedition to Rottnest island on Thursday

31 May The class spent weeks preparing for the expedition learning how to set up rigs tie knots

cast out and how to snag a big one The week leading up to Rottnest had high anticipation

throughout the class the question was ldquowho was going to get the biggest catchrdquo

As the morning arrived a dark and cold chill shivered through everyone ldquooh wait thatrsquos just the

weatherrdquo A storm had decided to hit the Perth coast in full force and provided not only challenging

fishing conditions but a crazy boat ride over The weather didnrsquot seem to dampen the morale of the

class although the boat ride would soon change this You know itrsquos a good start to a boat ride when

they hand you a sick bag as you boardhelliphellip

As we left Hillaryrsquos harbour there was laughter and jokes getting thrown around until the boat

stepped out into the ocean swell and the only thing that was getting thrown around were screams from

students and the odd little vomit Some thought this was the end With the skill of the Captain or just

luck of the draw we landed safe on the island With the crazy ride over there was a sigh of relief ldquoyayrdquo

fishing time

We had keen fishermen on our hands We delegated the fishing gear out and started our trek by foot

our destinationmdash the Army jetty The fish were about to get a shock

As we arrived it was still pouring with rain and down to 10 degrees but this didnrsquot stop any ldquooutdoor

eagersrdquo With the likes of AJ no shoes no jumper and just shorts he was running to the water to get

first cast and have the chance of bragging rights for the first catch Within minutes there wasnrsquot a ldquodryrdquo

seat in the house with all students out wetting a line

Moral was high although it was a slow start to the day The only thing getting reeled in was seaweed or a

cold BANG Harry Burt is on The rod has a big bend to it and it looks to be a big onehellip hold onhellip waithellip

what is that thing ldquoSir I caught someonersquos underwearrdquo Well at least we werenrsquot going home empty

handed

With the first catch being a pair of underwear things were starting to look south The class kept at it

battling the weather they started to hit the target The fish were biting and the race was on The fish

started to get pulled in and the smiles and bragging rights started to flow The rain still coming down

sideways in buckets While Mr Tippet Mrs Tkachenko and Mr Gillespie tackled the weather with the

students Mr Walczak kept cosy under the shelter with his knitted blanket and gloves With the fishing

coming to an end Jayden was crowned Champion Angler with a total count of 12 fish Despite the

protest from Harry with his imaginary 10ft snapper that magically got away

With the gear packed up it was time to start the hike back to the boat With the boat ride we had

coming to Rottnest I think the return boat ride was on everyonersquos thoughts With a small debrief of the

day and a bit of free time to go get some food we boarded the boat and set sail for Hillaryrsquos boat

harbour The ride home was smooth sailing as the wind was low and we had the swell on our side A

safe landing at the boat harbour had topped off the trip of on a good note and left everyone with plenty

of stories to tell

O U T D O O R E D ( P R A C T E A C H E R )

The 1st of June - day two of the Year 9s fishing expedition had commenced The sun was out spirits

were high and the sea was friendly to 50 of the class which managed to keep their breakfast in

In a lot of ways group oneday 1 and group twoday 2 were polar opposites The boat ride on the

second day was majestic compared to the ldquorollierdquo tides on day one Thunderstorms and heavy rain

one day - bright and sunny days on the next Day two students were blessed to say the least

Mr Bean kept those of who didnrsquot vomit entertained for the 40-45-minute trip with his timeless

humour Mr Gillespie tried working on his lesson plans but soon realised student numbers of sea

sickness was on the rise and other students were growing restless The seasick students were

quickly bundled upstairs to grab some fresh air with teachers to console them and their upset stomachs

Arriving at Rottnest the students were eager to replenish their recently empty stomachs putting Subway

and the local bakery into overdrive On a personal note the pies and pastries were an absolute dime

and are a MUST try After the students consumed the majority of Subwaysrsquo stock and took many selfies

with quokkas as physically possible we set out to acquire our sweet rides for the day

Mr Tippet refused Mr Gillespiersquos offer to take a tandem bike and was therefore designated the work

horse for the day and was given the trailer to cart around Mrs Tkachenko was the ever proficient and

gallant ldquopack leaderrdquo Mr Erwin the squad ldquomechanicmedicrdquo and Mr Gillespie was ldquochief motivatorall-

round utilityrdquo The students were responsible for their own equipment and had become giddy with

excitement once the sweet rides were obtained

We then set off to Salmon Bay to fish the sea dry There were ups and downs but there were more ups

then downshellip then we arrived Mr Erwinsrsquo skill as a bike technician came in handy multiple times on the

arduous journey while the students struggled to keep pace with the lightning fast Mrs Tkachenko Mr

Tippet took the fable of the tortoise and the hair very literally and kept a solid pace the entire way giving

his well-manicured legs a workout he would never forget

The word lsquoscenicrsquo comes to mind when reaching our destination with the lighthouse in the background

the sun beaming down the beautiful hilly terrain meeting the rocks and the tide gracefully touching the

sand with seaweed in massive clumps creating an interesting aroma Were we lucky to be fishing today

Now it was time for all the ground work done in class to rise to the occasion and begin fishing The girls

went off to a flying start and finished the day with a grand total of 37 fish Special mentions to Ella

Mason and Ashley Mathies who contributed ten fish between them and Marli Rabe who contributed with

a hefty four

Atanas Atanasoy caught the ldquoCATCH OF THE DAYrdquo - a 30cm Skippy which he took home for dinner

Sasha Babic and Rory Noonan had four each After the long glorious successful day we managed to

pack up without a hitch and ride back along the smooth road of Rottnest Except Mr Tippet (the work

horse) had to cart the supplies back with no help The students then tracked down the quokkas for more

selfies and finished their day with delicious pies and Subway before the setting sail back to the

motherland

Mr Bean managed to keep the extremely tired students entertained Their stomachs had settled we set

off once again having conquered Rottenest to our rear and dry land to our front In summary everyone

had a great day coming home wreaking of successful fishing

Hi again Year 8s

This term has been a very busy term and is coming to an end We have had the

Lightning Carnival earlier in the term in which students tried their very best in

Soccer Basketball Netball and Volleyball The PE department were very pleased with how we

represented the school We were also very glad to have a long weekend break after working very hard

for that part of the term

Recently we had Elevate Education visit us and give us a talk called Junior Time Management in which

we learnt about how to balance our personal time with our study and homework We were also

rewarded with a sausage sizzle from Miss Arns and the Student Services team for our hard work this

term

Coming up in week 8 we have our Zero2hero week This week is all about supporting the charity called

Zero2hero which raises money for suicide prevention and was created by an ex-Greenwood student

Throughout the week Student Services have organised special

events such as mechanical bull and an obstacle course and a big

assembly on the Friday

As well as this we have Music Camp in week 8 and a HASS

excursion to Kings Park As you can tell

this is an incredibly busy week In week

9 we are being given our Semester One

Reports hopefully everyone has tried

their best this semester

After all this we have HOLIDAYS

In week 6 students from 41 42 and 43 went on an excursion to the State

Library and the Art Gallery of WA There were 41 of us so we split up into two

groups Each group had a session in the library and in the art gallery

In the Art Gallery we had to search for works of Art using clues and then write down what we saw and

what we thought In the library we attended a session called lsquoFun With Fairytalesrsquo We used ipads to

take photos for fairytales we have been studying Back at school we are using the Book Creator app on

the ipads to retell our fairytale with our photos We all know our fairytales very well now

Students from 31 32 33 and 34 went on an excursion to Caversham Wildlife Park in week 7 They

saw lots of Australian native animals and had a great day out

On 28 June students from the 4s classes will be graduating We are looking forward to the ceremony

and the excursion to bowling Some students will be moving to new schools and we hope they will stay

in touch with the friends they have made at Greenwood

Term 2 started off well with all the Year 7s finally settling into high school

Everyone knows each other and is getting along well In Week 5 it was the

Year 7 Lighting Carnival We had to choose from the sports Netball Volleyball

Soccer and Football and most sports competed against other schools We started training in week 2

with every sport and health lesson spent playing our selected sports Everyone was excited for the

carnival and played to the best of their abilities with two Netball teams placing 3rd in their Division

Overall it was a great day and everyone had fun

As we are coming to the end of Term 2 everyone is eager for the holidays to arrive So far College has

been amazing and we canrsquot wait to see what happens next

Hi guys This is the second newsletter for the year so far Itrsquos the end of week 7

and a lot has happened Letrsquos outline a few of the eventshellip (Probably not in

chronological order though)

Up first NAPLAN What a nerve-racking week There was a lot of grumbling and

groaning but I think we were all glad to be rid of the tests the next week Unfortunately for us the Big

Science Competition was on the same week More stress am I right But soon all the tests were over and

done with thank goodness for that

The Year 9s were also visited by Mr Luke Kennedy He came to talk to us about the effect labels can have

on us and that these labels donrsquot define us We really hope that every Year 9 present took his words to

heart Also this term the Year 9 Outdoor Education classes went to Rottnest The 9s had a heap of fun

fishing and biking Unfortunately for them though the water was rough and more than a few people were

sick After Rottnest came the School Sports Netball Carnival There were a lot of Year 9 girls participating

and they all had a great time playing against the top schools wining some and losing some The Division

1 team (a group of Year 9s10s) even came first in their division They will be participating in the finals

rounds in Fremantle later on this term

Last but not least the Lightning Carnival The Year 9 Lightning Carnival was yesterday the fourteenth All

the Year 9s participated and had a great fun-filled and enjoyable day The sports that were played were

Volleyball Basketball Netball Football and Soccer The Year 9s played at a range of different venues with

supporters on all sides This yearrsquos carnival was the second last wersquoll ever have and were all really sad

But wersquoll definitely make the most of our last Lightning Carnival next year

Well thatrsquos it for this term Itrsquos only a nine week term but it has been packed So much stuff has

happened some of it fun some of it not so much But wersquore all thoroughly enjoying this term so far and

Irsquom sure when we check in next term wersquoll have lots more to tell

Weve just had our immunisations against Meningococcal and have been

hard at work preparing for the year ahead of us We also have many

upcoming events such as an Interschool Sports Carnival a Drama

performance and the River Cruise

Meningococcal is a hard word to say and an even harder one to spell honestly who even names these

diseases Anyway the Year 10s had our immunisations against it so we most likely wont even have to

care how to say it or spell it For some this needle was their worst nightmare for others it was just a

free lolly and some skipped class time Either way it is over now so we can breathe a sigh of relief

Year 11 and 12 are very crucial years in a studentrsquos schooling so there needs to be a lot of preparation

to ensure theyre done right As Year 10 students going into Year 11 we have been in the process of

selecting our Year 11 subjects We have read the booklets of information about our upcoming subjects

and what they have to offer received our recommendations from our teachers for subjects next year

and had multiple meetings about it all The whole process ends on 22 June when our subject selection

sheets our due into the front office Before then many students and their parents will attend a

counselling session with a designated counsellor to go through their choices on their subject

recommendation sheets What is with all the preparation though Well the school wants us to be

prepared for Year 11 and 12 to ensure we can achieve our WACE (Western Australian Certificate of

Education) and allow for the smoothest transition into upper school ATAR students will most likely

attend university General students will either attend TAFE or seek alternative entrance to university

and Foundation students will most likely be seeking immediate employment in the workforce This all

sounds very scary and sudden but that is why we have lots and lots of preparation Just remember

kids it will be okay

Coming up is our Interschool Sports Carnival where the Greenwood Year 10s compete against Year

10s from various other schools Therell be laughter smiles sweat and maybe even some blood letrsquos

hope not Were sure itll be a fun day for everyone Good luck guys

By the time this article goes to print the Year 10 Drama productions would have concluded Currently

the Year 10 Drama students have been hard at work rehearsing and preparing a compilation of 10

minute plays for everyonersquos enjoyment The production starts on 25 June in the Drama room The

leadership group and Mr Bassanelli have been hard at work planning our Year 10 River Cruise At this

stage it is looking like being held next term in week 7 It is the one and only scheduled social event for

all the Year 10s and should be a fun night

Thank you all for reading Have a nice rest of your term enjoy your holidays and be nice to your mums

First and for most we would like to congratulate Taylor Waterson on achieving a

great milestone in her Rugby career She has represented WA in Women`s Rugby

both league and union for the Western Force She achieved this while juggling Year

12 ATAR and other school commitments We are very proud to have Taylor as a member of our year

group and we look forward to watching her succeed in the years to come

On another light note Zero2hero day is on Friday 22 June It is a mental health charity that was

founded by an ex-greenwood student and it now runs successfully at a variety of schools across Perth

The charities and the schools that run a Zero2hero day over the years have done a great job at raising

awareness and providing support to those of us that struggle with mental illness This year we are

keeping this tradition alive by extending a day of activities to a week ending on Friday with a whole

school assembly and a free dress day

It will be an especially good day for the Music students who embark on their quest to spread their

talents to the four corners of Perth

To end off we would like to remind Year 12 students about the Leaverrsquos Assembly Committee that will

meet on Monday lunch-times to create the most entertaining assembly of the year All are encouraged

to come and contribute to the last piece of our legacy

Hello all as another exciting term at Greenwood College comes to a close we have

new events exclusive to Year 11s coming up early next semester

Firstly to recap the past 9 weeks ATAR students have sat exams which posed as a

great introduction to our following senior years For those who are disappointed with

their result donrsquot stress there is plenty of time to improve before the second set of exams and for those

who did well keep up the incredible work efforts and keep striving for success Congratulations to

everyone

To all the musosrsquo your camp is just around the corner Enjoy your time in the beautiful Swan Valley

canrsquot wait to hear about it on your return Reminder to those interested in attending the Winter Concert

will be held on the Sunday and the camp in the Swan Valley

As we are sure you are all aware this week is Zero2hero week The whole week is to be filled with

communal activities that are sure to spread the positive vibes At the end of the week for our whole

school assembly we have some very special guests attending and trust us you do not want miss them

Finally the night we have all been waiting for - the Year 11 Formal As it is approaching much quicker

than we all thought We suggest you start looking for an outfit now donrsquot forget to dress to impress

Save the date 16 August - more information will be released soon

In the meantime from your Year 11 councillors we hope you enjoy your well-earned two week break

that is rapidly approaching Enjoy yourself stay safe and we will see you again after the break

Helping your child build healthy relationships Every day we interact with many other people You may not like them or agree with them but everyone deserves respect

Parents play an important role in assisting children and young people to build self-respect This leads to the development

of the values and skills needed to express respect to others There may be some variation in what represents respectful

behaviors across different cultures However in any cultural context respect is about behaviors that convey valuing and

caring about another person Helping your child develop the following skills will help them to form healthy respectful

relationships with peers and adults

Understanding and empathy Encourage your child to think about how another person may feel about something

Empathic listening Teach them to listen and show they understand another personrsquos point of view

Anger Management In times of conflict encourage them to think first before speaking stay calm and avoid hurtful

reactions

Conflict resolution Disagreements are normal in any relationship Itrsquos helpful to teach your child that to work

through a problem by understanding another personrsquos point of view To achieve a compromise or agreement is

better than winning an argument that leaves the other person feeling bullied hurt or embarrassed

Problem-solving and decision making skills Rather than you offering solutions for your childrsquos problems hold back

and support your child to generate a few possible solutions themselves Encourage them to think about the impact

of each option on themselves and others before deciding on their action

Honesty In a relationship where there is trust and acceptance there should be no reason to lie and honesty should

be encouraged

Assertiveness Help your child to learn how to stand up for themselves or to speak up about their values or needs in

a way that is non-confrontational and still respects others

On Tuesday 29 May 31 members of the Greenwood College

Vocal Ensemble went on a short excursion to Edith Cowan

University in Mount Lawley and to the Western Australian

Academy of Performing Arts Every Tuesday during the university

semester the Classical Department puts on a lunchtime concert

at 110pm Sometimes there are visiting artists Sometimes

there are local ones Sometimes there are the university

students themselves On this occasion we were treated to a

spectacular performance by Eneksis Vocal Ensemble led by Michael McCarthy one of Australias

leading specialists in Aural training in particular through the methods laid down by Zoltan Kodaly The

ensemble performed a dazzling array of pieces by Taverner Rheinberger Part Busto Biebl and others

in 4 5 6 8 and 10 part harmony all to a very high standard and all with the utmost dedication to

precision detail and expressive effect At the close of the concert more than one student commented

that some of the harmonies had given them goosebumps They were both surprised and inspired by this

particular effect We often hear about how music and sound can influence the human body but we

d o n t a l w a y s f i n d

ourselves quite so aware

of this experience After a

short afternoon tea the

students then made their

way back to the College in

time for their usual

rehearsal after school Im

so very pleased that the

students enjoyed this

special performance and

look forward to similar

outings in the future

On Friday 15 June the students and staff of the Music Department held it annual Term 2 lunchtime

Amphitheatre Rock Band Concert The Year 11 and Year 12 students of the Certificate II class were

tasked with setting up the ever increasing array of equipment required for these kinds of events Itrsquos

difficult to get these items placed on stage in time to perform let alone connected up working and

sounding as they should It requires considerable preparation and practice on the part of the students

as well as a willingness to sacrifice ones own lunch break for

the entertainment of the school There are always issues to

overcome in order to put this event on The students did an

excellent job under the circumstances First up were the Year

10-12 Senior Rock Band The Nameless with Hysteria Our

second item was presented by the Year 9-10 Intermediate

Rock Band Legacy with Rain Our third and fourth items

were presented by the Year 7-9 Junior Rock Bands Fire amp Ice

and Capacity performing Wild Thing and Better than

Revenge respectively The event serves to entertain the

students of the College as well as create a date that the

ensembles must be prepared for before then embarking on

the annual Primary School Music Tour The lunchtime concert

was very well attended with few seats spare around the

Amphitheatre My thanks to Mr Swain and Mrs Pattison the

ensembles directors for their hard work dedication and

willingness to go above and beyond to prepare our students

for these performances I am very proud of our students work

and look forward to showcasing their talents at Goollelal and

Halidon Primary School on Friday 22 June

With the World Cup in full swing it would be fair to say that Soccer has never been so popular at

Greenwood College The 2018 season saw the school field 3 Teams Senior Boys u18rsquos that are led by

Dale Gannaway with the intermediate boys (u16) and Senior Girls (u18) being coached by yours truly

The biggest group we had by far was the intermediate boys We had too many for one team but not quite

enough for two which proves that there is a huge demand for the sport here Senior Girls had a mix of

junior and more experienced players while the Senior Boys has mostly experienced players with some

debutants stepping up from last years intermediate boys team

The Senior Girls had some brilliant moments in their season

Captained by Raquyah Hameed they showed some real promise in

their first game despite going down 3-0 to Duncraig SHS Their

second game against Carine SHS was far better with more

possession and shots on goal but neither team was able to break

the deadlock and the girls walked away with their first points with 0

-0 draw A forfeit from Mater Dei gave the girls their first win but

their best game was their last game against Quinns Baptist College

The Girls lost 4-1 to them last year however this time around lead

the game 1-0 right into the second half when a mixture of fatigue

as well as a heavy dose rain saw Quinns score 2 quick goals to win the match 2-1 Our standout players

throughout the season were Chelsea Downes Asha Malde and Jacinta and Isobel Boyce

The Intermediate Boys had another tough season however the

score lines were remarkably smaller than last season A crunching

7-1 loss to Ashdale followed by a narrow 2-1 loss to Shenton

showed the boys were improving Their last game against

Churchlands was very tight in the first half with multiple chances

on goal in the first half but somehow not finding the back of the

net The second half saw Churchlands run away with a 6-0 win

Honourable mentions go to Milad Safari Jigme Dorji and Atanas

Atanasav

The Senior Boys had a mixed season They started well with a resounding 3-0 win over St Stephens the

following week saw a narrow loss to Mater Dei despite the boys playing some brilliant soccer A forfeit

from Quinns gave them a 3-0 win on paper and they needed to win their recent clash with Balga SHS to

keep their finals hopes alive Sadly despite some valiant efforts from the likes of OT Mbafumoja Regis

Gatambiye Ahmed Omer and Aaron Deeks it wasnrsquot enough with Balga taking a 2-0 win There is one

more game left in the group stage which will be an away game on 25 June against Duncraig SHS

Despite our season earlier than we normally would like you can still enjoy the World Cup

The Year 9 Outdoor Education class set out on a fishing expedition to Rottnest island on Thursday

31 May The class spent weeks preparing for the expedition learning how to set up rigs tie knots

cast out and how to snag a big one The week leading up to Rottnest had high anticipation

throughout the class the question was ldquowho was going to get the biggest catchrdquo

As the morning arrived a dark and cold chill shivered through everyone ldquooh wait thatrsquos just the

weatherrdquo A storm had decided to hit the Perth coast in full force and provided not only challenging

fishing conditions but a crazy boat ride over The weather didnrsquot seem to dampen the morale of the

class although the boat ride would soon change this You know itrsquos a good start to a boat ride when

they hand you a sick bag as you boardhelliphellip

As we left Hillaryrsquos harbour there was laughter and jokes getting thrown around until the boat

stepped out into the ocean swell and the only thing that was getting thrown around were screams from

students and the odd little vomit Some thought this was the end With the skill of the Captain or just

luck of the draw we landed safe on the island With the crazy ride over there was a sigh of relief ldquoyayrdquo

fishing time

We had keen fishermen on our hands We delegated the fishing gear out and started our trek by foot

our destinationmdash the Army jetty The fish were about to get a shock

As we arrived it was still pouring with rain and down to 10 degrees but this didnrsquot stop any ldquooutdoor

eagersrdquo With the likes of AJ no shoes no jumper and just shorts he was running to the water to get

first cast and have the chance of bragging rights for the first catch Within minutes there wasnrsquot a ldquodryrdquo

seat in the house with all students out wetting a line

Moral was high although it was a slow start to the day The only thing getting reeled in was seaweed or a

cold BANG Harry Burt is on The rod has a big bend to it and it looks to be a big onehellip hold onhellip waithellip

what is that thing ldquoSir I caught someonersquos underwearrdquo Well at least we werenrsquot going home empty

handed

With the first catch being a pair of underwear things were starting to look south The class kept at it

battling the weather they started to hit the target The fish were biting and the race was on The fish

started to get pulled in and the smiles and bragging rights started to flow The rain still coming down

sideways in buckets While Mr Tippet Mrs Tkachenko and Mr Gillespie tackled the weather with the

students Mr Walczak kept cosy under the shelter with his knitted blanket and gloves With the fishing

coming to an end Jayden was crowned Champion Angler with a total count of 12 fish Despite the

protest from Harry with his imaginary 10ft snapper that magically got away

With the gear packed up it was time to start the hike back to the boat With the boat ride we had

coming to Rottnest I think the return boat ride was on everyonersquos thoughts With a small debrief of the

day and a bit of free time to go get some food we boarded the boat and set sail for Hillaryrsquos boat

harbour The ride home was smooth sailing as the wind was low and we had the swell on our side A

safe landing at the boat harbour had topped off the trip of on a good note and left everyone with plenty

of stories to tell

The 1st of June - day two of the Year 9s fishing expedition had commenced The sun was out spirits

were high and the sea was friendly to 50 of the class which managed to keep their breakfast in

In a lot of ways group oneday 1 and group twoday 2 were polar opposites The boat ride on the

second day was majestic compared to the ldquorollierdquo tides on day one Thunderstorms and heavy rain

one day - bright and sunny days on the next Day two students were blessed to say the least

Mr Bean kept those of who didnrsquot vomit entertained for the 40-45-minute trip with his timeless

humour Mr Gillespie tried working on his lesson plans but soon realised student numbers of sea

sickness was on the rise and other students were growing restless The seasick students were

quickly bundled upstairs to grab some fresh air with teachers to console them and their upset stomachs

Arriving at Rottnest the students were eager to replenish their recently empty stomachs putting Subway

and the local bakery into overdrive On a personal note the pies and pastries were an absolute dime

and are a MUST try After the students consumed the majority of Subwaysrsquo stock and took many selfies

with quokkas as physically possible we set out to acquire our sweet rides for the day

Mr Tippet refused Mr Gillespiersquos offer to take a tandem bike and was therefore designated the work

horse for the day and was given the trailer to cart around Mrs Tkachenko was the ever proficient and

gallant ldquopack leaderrdquo Mr Erwin the squad ldquomechanicmedicrdquo and Mr Gillespie was ldquochief motivatorall-

round utilityrdquo The students were responsible for their own equipment and had become giddy with

excitement once the sweet rides were obtained

We then set off to Salmon Bay to fish the sea dry There were ups and downs but there were more ups

then downshellip then we arrived Mr Erwinsrsquo skill as a bike technician came in handy multiple times on the

arduous journey while the students struggled to keep pace with the lightning fast Mrs Tkachenko Mr

Tippet took the fable of the tortoise and the hair very literally and kept a solid pace the entire way giving

his well-manicured legs a workout he would never forget

The word lsquoscenicrsquo comes to mind when reaching our destination with the lighthouse in the background

the sun beaming down the beautiful hilly terrain meeting the rocks and the tide gracefully touching the

sand with seaweed in massive clumps creating an interesting aroma Were we lucky to be fishing today

Now it was time for all the ground work done in class to rise to the occasion and begin fishing The girls

went off to a flying start and finished the day with a grand total of 37 fish Special mentions to Ella

Mason and Ashley Mathies who contributed ten fish between them and Marli Rabe who contributed with

a hefty four

Atanas Atanasoy caught the ldquoCATCH OF THE DAYrdquo - a 30cm Skippy which he took home for dinner

Sasha Babic and Rory Noonan had four each After the long glorious successful day we managed to

pack up without a hitch and ride back along the smooth road of Rottnest Except Mr Tippet (the work

horse) had to cart the supplies back with no help The students then tracked down the quokkas for more

selfies and finished their day with delicious pies and Subway before the setting sail back to the

motherland

Mr Bean managed to keep the extremely tired students entertained Their stomachs had settled we set

off once again having conquered Rottenest to our rear and dry land to our front In summary everyone

had a great day coming home wreaking of successful fishing

categories of points earned such as Academic House Points and Behaviour Merit Points

Currently our House is ranked No 1 in the standings and this is due to the outstanding

effort presented by the students and their enthusiasm toward earning House Points And

remember Redbacks every point earned no matter how insignificant it may seem will

add up toward the House Championship So try your best and MAKE CURTIN PROUD

Hi again Year 8s

This term has been a very busy term and is coming to an end We have had the

Lightning Carnival earlier in the term in which students tried their very best in

Soccer Basketball Netball and Volleyball The PE department were very pleased with how we

represented the school We were also very glad to have a long weekend break after working very hard

for that part of the term

Recently we had Elevate Education visit us and give us a talk called Junior Time Management in which

we learnt about how to balance our personal time with our study and homework We were also

rewarded with a sausage sizzle from Miss Arns and the Student Services team for our hard work this

term

Coming up in week 8 we have our Zero2hero week This week is all about supporting the charity called

Zero2hero which raises money for suicide prevention and was created by an ex-Greenwood student

Throughout the week Student Services have organised special

events such as mechanical bull and an obstacle course and a big

assembly on the Friday

As well as this we have Music Camp in week 8 and a HASS

excursion to Kings Park As you can tell

this is an incredibly busy week In week

9 we are being given our Semester One

Reports hopefully everyone has tried

their best this semester

After all this we have HOLIDAYS

In week 6 students from 41 42 and 43 went on an excursion to the State

Library and the Art Gallery of WA There were 41 of us so we split up into two

groups Each group had a session in the library and in the art gallery

In the Art Gallery we had to search for works of Art using clues and then write down what we saw and

what we thought In the library we attended a session called lsquoFun With Fairytalesrsquo We used ipads to

take photos for fairytales we have been studying Back at school we are using the Book Creator app on

the ipads to retell our fairytale with our photos We all know our fairytales very well now

Students from 31 32 33 and 34 went on an excursion to Caversham Wildlife Park in week 7 They

saw lots of Australian native animals and had a great day out

On 28 June students from the 4s classes will be graduating We are looking forward to the ceremony

and the excursion to bowling Some students will be moving to new schools and we hope they will stay

in touch with the friends they have made at Greenwood

Term 2 started off well with all the Year 7s finally settling into high school

Everyone knows each other and is getting along well In Week 5 it was the

Year 7 Lighting Carnival We had to choose from the sports Netball Volleyball

Soccer and Football and most sports competed against other schools We started training in week 2

with every sport and health lesson spent playing our selected sports Everyone was excited for the

carnival and played to the best of their abilities with two Netball teams placing 3rd in their Division

Overall it was a great day and everyone had fun

As we are coming to the end of Term 2 everyone is eager for the holidays to arrive So far College has

been amazing and we canrsquot wait to see what happens next

Hi guys This is the second newsletter for the year so far Itrsquos the end of week 7

and a lot has happened Letrsquos outline a few of the eventshellip (Probably not in

chronological order though)

Up first NAPLAN What a nerve-racking week There was a lot of grumbling and

groaning but I think we were all glad to be rid of the tests the next week Unfortunately for us the Big

Science Competition was on the same week More stress am I right But soon all the tests were over and

done with thank goodness for that

The Year 9s were also visited by Mr Luke Kennedy He came to talk to us about the effect labels can have

on us and that these labels donrsquot define us We really hope that every Year 9 present took his words to

heart Also this term the Year 9 Outdoor Education classes went to Rottnest The 9s had a heap of fun

fishing and biking Unfortunately for them though the water was rough and more than a few people were

sick After Rottnest came the School Sports Netball Carnival There were a lot of Year 9 girls participating

and they all had a great time playing against the top schools wining some and losing some The Division

1 team (a group of Year 9s10s) even came first in their division They will be participating in the finals

rounds in Fremantle later on this term

Last but not least the Lightning Carnival The Year 9 Lightning Carnival was yesterday the fourteenth All

the Year 9s participated and had a great fun-filled and enjoyable day The sports that were played were

Volleyball Basketball Netball Football and Soccer The Year 9s played at a range of different venues with

supporters on all sides This yearrsquos carnival was the second last wersquoll ever have and were all really sad

But wersquoll definitely make the most of our last Lightning Carnival next year

Well thatrsquos it for this term Itrsquos only a nine week term but it has been packed So much stuff has

happened some of it fun some of it not so much But wersquore all thoroughly enjoying this term so far and

Irsquom sure when we check in next term wersquoll have lots more to tell

Weve just had our immunisations against Meningococcal and have been

hard at work preparing for the year ahead of us We also have many

upcoming events such as an Interschool Sports Carnival a Drama

performance and the River Cruise

Meningococcal is a hard word to say and an even harder one to spell honestly who even names these

diseases Anyway the Year 10s had our immunisations against it so we most likely wont even have to

care how to say it or spell it For some this needle was their worst nightmare for others it was just a

free lolly and some skipped class time Either way it is over now so we can breathe a sigh of relief

Year 11 and 12 are very crucial years in a studentrsquos schooling so there needs to be a lot of preparation

to ensure theyre done right As Year 10 students going into Year 11 we have been in the process of

selecting our Year 11 subjects We have read the booklets of information about our upcoming subjects

and what they have to offer received our recommendations from our teachers for subjects next year

and had multiple meetings about it all The whole process ends on 22 June when our subject selection

sheets our due into the front office Before then many students and their parents will attend a

counselling session with a designated counsellor to go through their choices on their subject

recommendation sheets What is with all the preparation though Well the school wants us to be

prepared for Year 11 and 12 to ensure we can achieve our WACE (Western Australian Certificate of

Education) and allow for the smoothest transition into upper school ATAR students will most likely

attend university General students will either attend TAFE or seek alternative entrance to university

and Foundation students will most likely be seeking immediate employment in the workforce This all

sounds very scary and sudden but that is why we have lots and lots of preparation Just remember

kids it will be okay

Coming up is our Interschool Sports Carnival where the Greenwood Year 10s compete against Year

10s from various other schools Therell be laughter smiles sweat and maybe even some blood letrsquos

hope not Were sure itll be a fun day for everyone Good luck guys

By the time this article goes to print the Year 10 Drama productions would have concluded Currently

the Year 10 Drama students have been hard at work rehearsing and preparing a compilation of 10

minute plays for everyonersquos enjoyment The production starts on 25 June in the Drama room The

leadership group and Mr Bassanelli have been hard at work planning our Year 10 River Cruise At this

stage it is looking like being held next term in week 7 It is the one and only scheduled social event for

all the Year 10s and should be a fun night

Thank you all for reading Have a nice rest of your term enjoy your holidays and be nice to your mums

First and for most we would like to congratulate Taylor Waterson on achieving a

great milestone in her Rugby career She has represented WA in Women`s Rugby

both league and union for the Western Force She achieved this while juggling Year

12 ATAR and other school commitments We are very proud to have Taylor as a member of our year

group and we look forward to watching her succeed in the years to come

On another light note Zero2hero day is on Friday 22 June It is a mental health charity that was

founded by an ex-greenwood student and it now runs successfully at a variety of schools across Perth

The charities and the schools that run a Zero2hero day over the years have done a great job at raising

awareness and providing support to those of us that struggle with mental illness This year we are

keeping this tradition alive by extending a day of activities to a week ending on Friday with a whole

school assembly and a free dress day

It will be an especially good day for the Music students who embark on their quest to spread their

talents to the four corners of Perth

To end off we would like to remind Year 12 students about the Leaverrsquos Assembly Committee that will

meet on Monday lunch-times to create the most entertaining assembly of the year All are encouraged

to come and contribute to the last piece of our legacy

Hello all as another exciting term at Greenwood College comes to a close we have

new events exclusive to Year 11s coming up early next semester

Firstly to recap the past 9 weeks ATAR students have sat exams which posed as a

great introduction to our following senior years For those who are disappointed with

their result donrsquot stress there is plenty of time to improve before the second set of exams and for those

who did well keep up the incredible work efforts and keep striving for success Congratulations to

everyone

To all the musosrsquo your camp is just around the corner Enjoy your time in the beautiful Swan Valley

canrsquot wait to hear about it on your return Reminder to those interested in attending the Winter Concert

will be held on the Sunday and the camp in the Swan Valley

As we are sure you are all aware this week is Zero2hero week The whole week is to be filled with

communal activities that are sure to spread the positive vibes At the end of the week for our whole

school assembly we have some very special guests attending and trust us you do not want miss them

Finally the night we have all been waiting for - the Year 11 Formal As it is approaching much quicker

than we all thought We suggest you start looking for an outfit now donrsquot forget to dress to impress

In the meantime from your Year 11 councillors we hope you enjoy your well-earned two week break

Helping your child build healthy relationships Every day we interact with many other people You may not like them or agree with them but everyone deserves respect

Parents play an important role in assisting children and young people to build self-respect This leads to the development

of the values and skills needed to express respect to others There may be some variation in what represents respectful

behaviors across different cultures However in any cultural context respect is about behaviors that convey valuing and

caring about another person Helping your child develop the following skills will help them to form healthy respectful

relationships with peers and adults

Understanding and empathy Encourage your child to think about how another person may feel about something

Empathic listening Teach them to listen and show they understand another personrsquos point of view

Anger Management In times of conflict encourage them to think first before speaking stay calm and avoid hurtful

reactions

Conflict resolution Disagreements are normal in any relationship Itrsquos helpful to teach your child that to work

through a problem by understanding another personrsquos point of view To achieve a compromise or agreement is

better than winning an argument that leaves the other person feeling bullied hurt or embarrassed

Problem-solving and decision making skills Rather than you offering solutions for your childrsquos problems hold back

and support your child to generate a few possible solutions themselves Encourage them to think about the impact

of each option on themselves and others before deciding on their action

Honesty In a relationship where there is trust and acceptance there should be no reason to lie and honesty should

be encouraged

Assertiveness Help your child to learn how to stand up for themselves or to speak up about their values or needs in

a way that is non-confrontational and still respects others

On Tuesday 29 May 31 members of the Greenwood College

Vocal Ensemble went on a short excursion to Edith Cowan

University in Mount Lawley and to the Western Australian

Academy of Performing Arts Every Tuesday during the university

semester the Classical Department puts on a lunchtime concert

at 110pm Sometimes there are visiting artists Sometimes

there are local ones Sometimes there are the university

students themselves On this occasion we were treated to a

spectacular performance by Eneksis Vocal Ensemble led by Michael McCarthy one of Australias

leading specialists in Aural training in particular through the methods laid down by Zoltan Kodaly The

ensemble performed a dazzling array of pieces by Taverner Rheinberger Part Busto Biebl and others

in 4 5 6 8 and 10 part harmony all to a very high standard and all with the utmost dedication to

precision detail and expressive effect At the close of the concert more than one student commented

that some of the harmonies had given them goosebumps They were both surprised and inspired by this

particular effect We often hear about how music and sound can influence the human body but we

d o n t a l w a y s f i n d

ourselves quite so aware

of this experience After a

short afternoon tea the

students then made their

way back to the College in

time for their usual

rehearsal after school Im

so very pleased that the

students enjoyed this

special performance and

look forward to similar

outings in the future

On Friday 15 June the students and staff of the Music Department held it annual Term 2 lunchtime

Amphitheatre Rock Band Concert The Year 11 and Year 12 students of the Certificate II class were

tasked with setting up the ever increasing array of equipment required for these kinds of events Itrsquos

difficult to get these items placed on stage in time to perform let alone connected up working and

sounding as they should It requires considerable preparation and practice on the part of the students

as well as a willingness to sacrifice ones own lunch break for

the entertainment of the school There are always issues to

overcome in order to put this event on The students did an

excellent job under the circumstances First up were the Year

10-12 Senior Rock Band The Nameless with Hysteria Our

second item was presented by the Year 9-10 Intermediate

Rock Band Legacy with Rain Our third and fourth items

were presented by the Year 7-9 Junior Rock Bands Fire amp Ice

and Capacity performing Wild Thing and Better than

Revenge respectively The event serves to entertain the

students of the College as well as create a date that the

ensembles must be prepared for before then embarking on

the annual Primary School Music Tour The lunchtime concert

was very well attended with few seats spare around the

Amphitheatre My thanks to Mr Swain and Mrs Pattison the

ensembles directors for their hard work dedication and

willingness to go above and beyond to prepare our students

for these performances I am very proud of our students work

and look forward to showcasing their talents at Goollelal and

Halidon Primary School on Friday 22 June

With the World Cup in full swing it would be fair to say that Soccer has never been so popular at

Greenwood College The 2018 season saw the school field 3 Teams Senior Boys u18rsquos that are led by

Dale Gannaway with the intermediate boys (u16) and Senior Girls (u18) being coached by yours truly

The biggest group we had by far was the intermediate boys We had too many for one team but not quite

enough for two which proves that there is a huge demand for the sport here Senior Girls had a mix of

junior and more experienced players while the Senior Boys has mostly experienced players with some

debutants stepping up from last years intermediate boys team

The Senior Girls had some brilliant moments in their season

Captained by Raquyah Hameed they showed some real promise in

their first game despite going down 3-0 to Duncraig SHS Their

second game against Carine SHS was far better with more

possession and shots on goal but neither team was able to break

the deadlock and the girls walked away with their first points with 0

-0 draw A forfeit from Mater Dei gave the girls their first win but

their best game was their last game against Quinns Baptist College

The Girls lost 4-1 to them last year however this time around lead

the game 1-0 right into the second half when a mixture of fatigue

as well as a heavy dose rain saw Quinns score 2 quick goals to win the match 2-1 Our standout players

throughout the season were Chelsea Downes Asha Malde and Jacinta and Isobel Boyce

The Intermediate Boys had another tough season however the

score lines were remarkably smaller than last season A crunching

7-1 loss to Ashdale followed by a narrow 2-1 loss to Shenton

showed the boys were improving Their last game against

Churchlands was very tight in the first half with multiple chances

on goal in the first half but somehow not finding the back of the

net The second half saw Churchlands run away with a 6-0 win

Honourable mentions go to Milad Safari Jigme Dorji and Atanas

Atanasav

The Senior Boys had a mixed season They started well with a resounding 3-0 win over St Stephens the

following week saw a narrow loss to Mater Dei despite the boys playing some brilliant soccer A forfeit

from Quinns gave them a 3-0 win on paper and they needed to win their recent clash with Balga SHS to

keep their finals hopes alive Sadly despite some valiant efforts from the likes of OT Mbafumoja Regis

Gatambiye Ahmed Omer and Aaron Deeks it wasnrsquot enough with Balga taking a 2-0 win There is one

more game left in the group stage which will be an away game on 25 June against Duncraig SHS

Despite our season earlier than we normally would like you can still enjoy the World Cup

The Year 9 Outdoor Education class set out on a fishing expedition to Rottnest island on Thursday

31 May The class spent weeks preparing for the expedition learning how to set up rigs tie knots

cast out and how to snag a big one The week leading up to Rottnest had high anticipation

throughout the class the question was ldquowho was going to get the biggest catchrdquo

As the morning arrived a dark and cold chill shivered through everyone ldquooh wait thatrsquos just the

weatherrdquo A storm had decided to hit the Perth coast in full force and provided not only challenging

fishing conditions but a crazy boat ride over The weather didnrsquot seem to dampen the morale of the

class although the boat ride would soon change this You know itrsquos a good start to a boat ride when

they hand you a sick bag as you boardhelliphellip

As we left Hillaryrsquos harbour there was laughter and jokes getting thrown around until the boat

stepped out into the ocean swell and the only thing that was getting thrown around were screams from

students and the odd little vomit Some thought this was the end With the skill of the Captain or just

luck of the draw we landed safe on the island With the crazy ride over there was a sigh of relief ldquoyayrdquo

fishing time

We had keen fishermen on our hands We delegated the fishing gear out and started our trek by foot

our destinationmdash the Army jetty The fish were about to get a shock

As we arrived it was still pouring with rain and down to 10 degrees but this didnrsquot stop any ldquooutdoor

eagersrdquo With the likes of AJ no shoes no jumper and just shorts he was running to the water to get

first cast and have the chance of bragging rights for the first catch Within minutes there wasnrsquot a ldquodryrdquo

seat in the house with all students out wetting a line

Moral was high although it was a slow start to the day The only thing getting reeled in was seaweed or a

cold BANG Harry Burt is on The rod has a big bend to it and it looks to be a big onehellip hold onhellip waithellip

what is that thing ldquoSir I caught someonersquos underwearrdquo Well at least we werenrsquot going home empty

handed

With the first catch being a pair of underwear things were starting to look south The class kept at it

battling the weather they started to hit the target The fish were biting and the race was on The fish

started to get pulled in and the smiles and bragging rights started to flow The rain still coming down

sideways in buckets While Mr Tippet Mrs Tkachenko and Mr Gillespie tackled the weather with the

students Mr Walczak kept cosy under the shelter with his knitted blanket and gloves With the fishing

coming to an end Jayden was crowned Champion Angler with a total count of 12 fish Despite the

protest from Harry with his imaginary 10ft snapper that magically got away

With the gear packed up it was time to start the hike back to the boat With the boat ride we had

coming to Rottnest I think the return boat ride was on everyonersquos thoughts With a small debrief of the

day and a bit of free time to go get some food we boarded the boat and set sail for Hillaryrsquos boat

harbour The ride home was smooth sailing as the wind was low and we had the swell on our side A

safe landing at the boat harbour had topped off the trip of on a good note and left everyone with plenty

of stories to tell

The 1st of June - day two of the Year 9s fishing expedition had commenced The sun was out spirits

were high and the sea was friendly to 50 of the class which managed to keep their breakfast in

In a lot of ways group oneday 1 and group twoday 2 were polar opposites The boat ride on the

second day was majestic compared to the ldquorollierdquo tides on day one Thunderstorms and heavy rain

one day - bright and sunny days on the next Day two students were blessed to say the least

Mr Bean kept those of who didnrsquot vomit entertained for the 40-45-minute trip with his timeless

humour Mr Gillespie tried working on his lesson plans but soon realised student numbers of sea

sickness was on the rise and other students were growing restless The seasick students were

quickly bundled upstairs to grab some fresh air with teachers to console them and their upset stomachs

Arriving at Rottnest the students were eager to replenish their recently empty stomachs putting Subway

and the local bakery into overdrive On a personal note the pies and pastries were an absolute dime

and are a MUST try After the students consumed the majority of Subwaysrsquo stock and took many selfies

with quokkas as physically possible we set out to acquire our sweet rides for the day

Mr Tippet refused Mr Gillespiersquos offer to take a tandem bike and was therefore designated the work

horse for the day and was given the trailer to cart around Mrs Tkachenko was the ever proficient and

gallant ldquopack leaderrdquo Mr Erwin the squad ldquomechanicmedicrdquo and Mr Gillespie was ldquochief motivatorall-

round utilityrdquo The students were responsible for their own equipment and had become giddy with

excitement once the sweet rides were obtained

We then set off to Salmon Bay to fish the sea dry There were ups and downs but there were more ups

then downshellip then we arrived Mr Erwinsrsquo skill as a bike technician came in handy multiple times on the

arduous journey while the students struggled to keep pace with the lightning fast Mrs Tkachenko Mr

Tippet took the fable of the tortoise and the hair very literally and kept a solid pace the entire way giving

his well-manicured legs a workout he would never forget

The word lsquoscenicrsquo comes to mind when reaching our destination with the lighthouse in the background

the sun beaming down the beautiful hilly terrain meeting the rocks and the tide gracefully touching the

sand with seaweed in massive clumps creating an interesting aroma Were we lucky to be fishing today

Now it was time for all the ground work done in class to rise to the occasion and begin fishing The girls

went off to a flying start and finished the day with a grand total of 37 fish Special mentions to Ella

Mason and Ashley Mathies who contributed ten fish between them and Marli Rabe who contributed with

a hefty four

Atanas Atanasoy caught the ldquoCATCH OF THE DAYrdquo - a 30cm Skippy which he took home for dinner

Sasha Babic and Rory Noonan had four each After the long glorious successful day we managed to

pack up without a hitch and ride back along the smooth road of Rottnest Except Mr Tippet (the work

horse) had to cart the supplies back with no help The students then tracked down the quokkas for more

selfies and finished their day with delicious pies and Subway before the setting sail back to the

motherland

Mr Bean managed to keep the extremely tired students entertained Their stomachs had settled we set

off once again having conquered Rottenest to our rear and dry land to our front In summary everyone

had a great day coming home wreaking of successful fishing

Hi again Year 8s

This term has been a very busy term and is coming to an end We have had the

Lightning Carnival earlier in the term in which students tried their very best in

Soccer Basketball Netball and Volleyball The PE department were very pleased with how we

represented the school We were also very glad to have a long weekend break after working very hard

for that part of the term

Recently we had Elevate Education visit us and give us a talk called Junior Time Management in which

we learnt about how to balance our personal time with our study and homework We were also

rewarded with a sausage sizzle from Miss Arns and the Student Services team for our hard work this

term

Coming up in week 8 we have our Zero2hero week This week is all about supporting the charity called

Zero2hero which raises money for suicide prevention and was created by an ex-Greenwood student

Throughout the week Student Services have organised special

events such as mechanical bull and an obstacle course and a big

assembly on the Friday

As well as this we have Music Camp in week 8 and a HASS

excursion to Kings Park As you can tell

this is an incredibly busy week In week

9 we are being given our Semester One

Reports hopefully everyone has tried

their best this semester

After all this we have HOLIDAYS

In week 6 students from 41 42 and 43 went on an excursion to the State

Library and the Art Gallery of WA There were 41 of us so we split up into two

groups Each group had a session in the library and in the art gallery

In the Art Gallery we had to search for works of Art using clues and then write down what we saw and

what we thought In the library we attended a session called lsquoFun With Fairytalesrsquo We used ipads to

take photos for fairytales we have been studying Back at school we are using the Book Creator app on

the ipads to retell our fairytale with our photos We all know our fairytales very well now

Students from 31 32 33 and 34 went on an excursion to Caversham Wildlife Park in week 7 They

saw lots of Australian native animals and had a great day out

On 28 June students from the 4s classes will be graduating We are looking forward to the ceremony

and the excursion to bowling Some students will be moving to new schools and we hope they will stay

in touch with the friends they have made at Greenwood

Term 2 started off well with all the Year 7s finally settling into high school

Everyone knows each other and is getting along well In Week 5 it was the

Year 7 Lighting Carnival We had to choose from the sports Netball Volleyball

Soccer and Football and most sports competed against other schools We started training in week 2

with every sport and health lesson spent playing our selected sports Everyone was excited for the

carnival and played to the best of their abilities with two Netball teams placing 3rd in their Division

Overall it was a great day and everyone had fun

As we are coming to the end of Term 2 everyone is eager for the holidays to arrive So far College has

been amazing and we canrsquot wait to see what happens next

Hi guys This is the second newsletter for the year so far Itrsquos the end of week 7

and a lot has happened Letrsquos outline a few of the eventshellip (Probably not in

chronological order though)

Up first NAPLAN What a nerve-racking week There was a lot of grumbling and

groaning but I think we were all glad to be rid of the tests the next week Unfortunately for us the Big

Science Competition was on the same week More stress am I right But soon all the tests were over and

done with thank goodness for that

The Year 9s were also visited by Mr Luke Kennedy He came to talk to us about the effect labels can have

on us and that these labels donrsquot define us We really hope that every Year 9 present took his words to

heart Also this term the Year 9 Outdoor Education classes went to Rottnest The 9s had a heap of fun

fishing and biking Unfortunately for them though the water was rough and more than a few people were

sick After Rottnest came the School Sports Netball Carnival There were a lot of Year 9 girls participating

and they all had a great time playing against the top schools wining some and losing some The Division

1 team (a group of Year 9s10s) even came first in their division They will be participating in the finals

rounds in Fremantle later on this term

Last but not least the Lightning Carnival The Year 9 Lightning Carnival was yesterday the fourteenth All

the Year 9s participated and had a great fun-filled and enjoyable day The sports that were played were

Volleyball Basketball Netball Football and Soccer The Year 9s played at a range of different venues with

supporters on all sides This yearrsquos carnival was the second last wersquoll ever have and were all really sad

But wersquoll definitely make the most of our last Lightning Carnival next year

Well thatrsquos it for this term Itrsquos only a nine week term but it has been packed So much stuff has

happened some of it fun some of it not so much But wersquore all thoroughly enjoying this term so far and

Irsquom sure when we check in next term wersquoll have lots more to tell

Weve just had our immunisations against Meningococcal and have been

hard at work preparing for the year ahead of us We also have many

upcoming events such as an Interschool Sports Carnival a Drama

performance and the River Cruise

Meningococcal is a hard word to say and an even harder one to spell honestly who even names these

diseases Anyway the Year 10s had our immunisations against it so we most likely wont even have to

care how to say it or spell it For some this needle was their worst nightmare for others it was just a

free lolly and some skipped class time Either way it is over now so we can breathe a sigh of relief

Year 11 and 12 are very crucial years in a studentrsquos schooling so there needs to be a lot of preparation

to ensure theyre done right As Year 10 students going into Year 11 we have been in the process of

selecting our Year 11 subjects We have read the booklets of information about our upcoming subjects

and what they have to offer received our recommendations from our teachers for subjects next year

and had multiple meetings about it all The whole process ends on 22 June when our subject selection

sheets our due into the front office Before then many students and their parents will attend a

counselling session with a designated counsellor to go through their choices on their subject

recommendation sheets What is with all the preparation though Well the school wants us to be

prepared for Year 11 and 12 to ensure we can achieve our WACE (Western Australian Certificate of

Education) and allow for the smoothest transition into upper school ATAR students will most likely

attend university General students will either attend TAFE or seek alternative entrance to university

and Foundation students will most likely be seeking immediate employment in the workforce This all

sounds very scary and sudden but that is why we have lots and lots of preparation Just remember

kids it will be okay

Coming up is our Interschool Sports Carnival where the Greenwood Year 10s compete against Year

10s from various other schools Therell be laughter smiles sweat and maybe even some blood letrsquos

hope not Were sure itll be a fun day for everyone Good luck guys

By the time this article goes to print the Year 10 Drama productions would have concluded Currently

the Year 10 Drama students have been hard at work rehearsing and preparing a compilation of 10

minute plays for everyonersquos enjoyment The production starts on 25 June in the Drama room The

leadership group and Mr Bassanelli have been hard at work planning our Year 10 River Cruise At this

stage it is looking like being held next term in week 7 It is the one and only scheduled social event for

all the Year 10s and should be a fun night

Thank you all for reading Have a nice rest of your term enjoy your holidays and be nice to your mums

First and for most we would like to congratulate Taylor Waterson on achieving a

great milestone in her Rugby career She has represented WA in Women`s Rugby

both league and union for the Western Force She achieved this while juggling Year

12 ATAR and other school commitments We are very proud to have Taylor as a member of our year

group and we look forward to watching her succeed in the years to come

On another light note Zero2hero day is on Friday 22 June It is a mental health charity that was

founded by an ex-greenwood student and it now runs successfully at a variety of schools across Perth

The charities and the schools that run a Zero2hero day over the years have done a great job at raising

awareness and providing support to those of us that struggle with mental illness This year we are

keeping this tradition alive by extending a day of activities to a week ending on Friday with a whole

school assembly and a free dress day

It will be an especially good day for the Music students who embark on their quest to spread their

talents to the four corners of Perth

To end off we would like to remind Year 12 students about the Leaverrsquos Assembly Committee that will

meet on Monday lunch-times to create the most entertaining assembly of the year All are encouraged

to come and contribute to the last piece of our legacy

Hello all as another exciting term at Greenwood College comes to a close we have

new events exclusive to Year 11s coming up early next semester

Firstly to recap the past 9 weeks ATAR students have sat exams which posed as a

great introduction to our following senior years For those who are disappointed with

their result donrsquot stress there is plenty of time to improve before the second set of exams and for those

who did well keep up the incredible work efforts and keep striving for success Congratulations to

everyone

To all the musosrsquo your camp is just around the corner Enjoy your time in the beautiful Swan Valley

canrsquot wait to hear about it on your return Reminder to those interested in attending the Winter Concert

will be held on the Sunday and the camp in the Swan Valley

As we are sure you are all aware this week is Zero2hero week The whole week is to be filled with

communal activities that are sure to spread the positive vibes At the end of the week for our whole

school assembly we have some very special guests attending and trust us you do not want miss them

Finally the night we have all been waiting for - the Year 11 Formal As it is approaching much quicker

than we all thought We suggest you start looking for an outfit now donrsquot forget to dress to impress

Save the date 16 August - more information will be released soon

In the meantime from your Year 11 councillors we hope you enjoy your well-earned two week break

that is rapidly approaching Enjoy yourself stay safe and we will see you again after the break

Helping your child build healthy relationships Every day we interact with many other people You may not like them or agree with them but everyone deserves respect

Parents play an important role in assisting children and young people to build self-respect This leads to the development

of the values and skills needed to express respect to others There may be some variation in what represents respectful

behaviors across different cultures However in any cultural context respect is about behaviors that convey valuing and

caring about another person Helping your child develop the following skills will help them to form healthy respectful

relationships with peers and adults

Understanding and empathy Encourage your child to think about how another person may feel about something

Empathic listening Teach them to listen and show they understand another personrsquos point of view

Anger Management In times of conflict encourage them to think first before speaking stay calm and avoid hurtful

reactions

Conflict resolution Disagreements are normal in any relationship Itrsquos helpful to teach your child that to work

through a problem by understanding another personrsquos point of view To achieve a compromise or agreement is

better than winning an argument that leaves the other person feeling bullied hurt or embarrassed

Problem-solving and decision making skills Rather than you offering solutions for your childrsquos problems hold back

and support your child to generate a few possible solutions themselves Encourage them to think about the impact

of each option on themselves and others before deciding on their action

Honesty In a relationship where there is trust and acceptance there should be no reason to lie and honesty should

be encouraged

Assertiveness Help your child to learn how to stand up for themselves or to speak up about their values or needs in

a way that is non-confrontational and still respects others

On Tuesday 29 May 31 members of the Greenwood College

Vocal Ensemble went on a short excursion to Edith Cowan

University in Mount Lawley and to the Western Australian

Academy of Performing Arts Every Tuesday during the university

semester the Classical Department puts on a lunchtime concert

at 110pm Sometimes there are visiting artists Sometimes

there are local ones Sometimes there are the university

students themselves On this occasion we were treated to a

spectacular performance by Eneksis Vocal Ensemble led by Michael McCarthy one of Australias

leading specialists in Aural training in particular through the methods laid down by Zoltan Kodaly The

ensemble performed a dazzling array of pieces by Taverner Rheinberger Part Busto Biebl and others

in 4 5 6 8 and 10 part harmony all to a very high standard and all with the utmost dedication to

precision detail and expressive effect At the close of the concert more than one student commented

that some of the harmonies had given them goosebumps They were both surprised and inspired by this

particular effect We often hear about how music and sound can influence the human body but we

d o n t a l w a y s f i n d

ourselves quite so aware

of this experience After a

short afternoon tea the

students then made their

way back to the College in

time for their usual

rehearsal after school Im

so very pleased that the

students enjoyed this

special performance and

look forward to similar

outings in the future

On Friday 15 June the students and staff of the Music Department held it annual Term 2 lunchtime

Amphitheatre Rock Band Concert The Year 11 and Year 12 students of the Certificate II class were

tasked with setting up the ever increasing array of equipment required for these kinds of events Itrsquos

difficult to get these items placed on stage in time to perform let alone connected up working and

sounding as they should It requires considerable preparation and practice on the part of the students

as well as a willingness to sacrifice ones own lunch break for

the entertainment of the school There are always issues to

overcome in order to put this event on The students did an

excellent job under the circumstances First up were the Year

10-12 Senior Rock Band The Nameless with Hysteria Our

second item was presented by the Year 9-10 Intermediate

Rock Band Legacy with Rain Our third and fourth items

were presented by the Year 7-9 Junior Rock Bands Fire amp Ice

and Capacity performing Wild Thing and Better than

Revenge respectively The event serves to entertain the

students of the College as well as create a date that the

ensembles must be prepared for before then embarking on

the annual Primary School Music Tour The lunchtime concert

was very well attended with few seats spare around the

Amphitheatre My thanks to Mr Swain and Mrs Pattison the

ensembles directors for their hard work dedication and

willingness to go above and beyond to prepare our students

for these performances I am very proud of our students work

and look forward to showcasing their talents at Goollelal and

Halidon Primary School on Friday 22 June

CONGRATULATIONS to our Greenwood College Year 12 student NICHOLAS FANTINI who has won a photo

competition of an important Australian magazine Photoreview

(wwwphotoreviewcomau)

The article is published in Photoreview magazine of June 2018 see the

relative pages attached

The winning photos are masterful images of two adventurous Latin

America destinations Laguna Colorada in Bolivia and Bloody Red Lake

in the mountains of Chile The waters of these two lagoons have intense

orange hue which is contrasting amazingly with the landscape

The same student has become recently a winner of drone

photography in New Drones of Australia and took a 4th

place in Capture Nature Photo Competition in Joondalup

Greenwood College produces so many amazing

photographershellip

With the World Cup in full swing it would be fair to say that Soccer has never been so popular at

Greenwood College The 2018 season saw the school field 3 Teams Senior Boys u18rsquos that are led by

Dale Gannaway with the intermediate boys (u16) and Senior Girls (u18) being coached by yours truly

The biggest group we had by far was the intermediate boys We had too many for one team but not quite

enough for two which proves that there is a huge demand for the sport here Senior Girls had a mix of

junior and more experienced players while the Senior Boys has mostly experienced players with some

debutants stepping up from last years intermediate boys team

The Senior Girls had some brilliant moments in their season

Captained by Raquyah Hameed they showed some real promise in

their first game despite going down 3-0 to Duncraig SHS Their

second game against Carine SHS was far better with more

possession and shots on goal but neither team was able to break

the deadlock and the girls walked away with their first points with 0

-0 draw A forfeit from Mater Dei gave the girls their first win but

their best game was their last game against Quinns Baptist College

The Girls lost 4-1 to them last year however this time around lead

the game 1-0 right into the second half when a mixture of fatigue

as well as a heavy dose rain saw Quinns score 2 quick goals to win the match 2-1 Our standout players

throughout the season were Chelsea Downes Asha Malde and Jacinta and Isobel Boyce

The Intermediate Boys had another tough season however the

score lines were remarkably smaller than last season A crunching

7-1 loss to Ashdale followed by a narrow 2-1 loss to Shenton

showed the boys were improving Their last game against

Churchlands was very tight in the first half with multiple chances

on goal in the first half but somehow not finding the back of the

net The second half saw Churchlands run away with a 6-0 win

Honourable mentions go to Milad Safari Jigme Dorji and Atanas

Atanasav

The Senior Boys had a mixed season They started well with a resounding 3-0 win over St Stephens the

following week saw a narrow loss to Mater Dei despite the boys playing some brilliant soccer A forfeit

from Quinns gave them a 3-0 win on paper and they needed to win their recent clash with Balga SHS to

keep their finals hopes alive Sadly despite some valiant efforts from the likes of OT Mbafumoja Regis

Gatambiye Ahmed Omer and Aaron Deeks it wasnrsquot enough with Balga taking a 2-0 win There is one

more game left in the group stage which will be an away game on 25 June against Duncraig SHS

Despite our season earlier than we normally would like you can still enjoy the World Cup

The Year 9 Outdoor Education class set out on a fishing expedition to Rottnest island on Thursday

31 May The class spent weeks preparing for the expedition learning how to set up rigs tie knots

cast out and how to snag a big one The week leading up to Rottnest had high anticipation

throughout the class the question was ldquowho was going to get the biggest catchrdquo

As the morning arrived a dark and cold chill shivered through everyone ldquooh wait thatrsquos just the

weatherrdquo A storm had decided to hit the Perth coast in full force and provided not only challenging

fishing conditions but a crazy boat ride over The weather didnrsquot seem to dampen the morale of the

class although the boat ride would soon change this You know itrsquos a good start to a boat ride when

they hand you a sick bag as you boardhelliphellip

As we left Hillaryrsquos harbour there was laughter and jokes getting thrown around until the boat

stepped out into the ocean swell and the only thing that was getting thrown around were screams from

students and the odd little vomit Some thought this was the end With the skill of the Captain or just

luck of the draw we landed safe on the island With the crazy ride over there was a sigh of relief ldquoyayrdquo

fishing time

We had keen fishermen on our hands We delegated the fishing gear out and started our trek by foot

our destinationmdash the Army jetty The fish were about to get a shock

As we arrived it was still pouring with rain and down to 10 degrees but this didnrsquot stop any ldquooutdoor

eagersrdquo With the likes of AJ no shoes no jumper and just shorts he was running to the water to get

first cast and have the chance of bragging rights for the first catch Within minutes there wasnrsquot a ldquodryrdquo

seat in the house with all students out wetting a line

Moral was high although it was a slow start to the day The only thing getting reeled in was seaweed or a

cold BANG Harry Burt is on The rod has a big bend to it and it looks to be a big onehellip hold onhellip waithellip

what is that thing ldquoSir I caught someonersquos underwearrdquo Well at least we werenrsquot going home empty

handed

With the first catch being a pair of underwear things were starting to look south The class kept at it

battling the weather they started to hit the target The fish were biting and the race was on The fish

started to get pulled in and the smiles and bragging rights started to flow The rain still coming down

sideways in buckets While Mr Tippet Mrs Tkachenko and Mr Gillespie tackled the weather with the

students Mr Walczak kept cosy under the shelter with his knitted blanket and gloves With the fishing

coming to an end Jayden was crowned Champion Angler with a total count of 12 fish Despite the

protest from Harry with his imaginary 10ft snapper that magically got away

With the gear packed up it was time to start the hike back to the boat With the boat ride we had

coming to Rottnest I think the return boat ride was on everyonersquos thoughts With a small debrief of the

day and a bit of free time to go get some food we boarded the boat and set sail for Hillaryrsquos boat

harbour The ride home was smooth sailing as the wind was low and we had the swell on our side A

safe landing at the boat harbour had topped off the trip of on a good note and left everyone with plenty

of stories to tell

O U T D O O R E D ( P R A C T E A C H E R )

The 1st of June - day two of the Year 9s fishing expedition had commenced The sun was out spirits

were high and the sea was friendly to 50 of the class which managed to keep their breakfast in

In a lot of ways group oneday 1 and group twoday 2 were polar opposites The boat ride on the

second day was majestic compared to the ldquorollierdquo tides on day one Thunderstorms and heavy rain

one day - bright and sunny days on the next Day two students were blessed to say the least

Mr Bean kept those of who didnrsquot vomit entertained for the 40-45-minute trip with his timeless

humour Mr Gillespie tried working on his lesson plans but soon realised student numbers of sea

sickness was on the rise and other students were growing restless The seasick students were

quickly bundled upstairs to grab some fresh air with teachers to console them and their upset stomachs

Arriving at Rottnest the students were eager to replenish their recently empty stomachs putting Subway

and the local bakery into overdrive On a personal note the pies and pastries were an absolute dime

and are a MUST try After the students consumed the majority of Subwaysrsquo stock and took many selfies

with quokkas as physically possible we set out to acquire our sweet rides for the day

Mr Tippet refused Mr Gillespiersquos offer to take a tandem bike and was therefore designated the work

horse for the day and was given the trailer to cart around Mrs Tkachenko was the ever proficient and

gallant ldquopack leaderrdquo Mr Erwin the squad ldquomechanicmedicrdquo and Mr Gillespie was ldquochief motivatorall-

round utilityrdquo The students were responsible for their own equipment and had become giddy with

excitement once the sweet rides were obtained

We then set off to Salmon Bay to fish the sea dry There were ups and downs but there were more ups

then downshellip then we arrived Mr Erwinsrsquo skill as a bike technician came in handy multiple times on the

arduous journey while the students struggled to keep pace with the lightning fast Mrs Tkachenko Mr

Tippet took the fable of the tortoise and the hair very literally and kept a solid pace the entire way giving

his well-manicured legs a workout he would never forget

The word lsquoscenicrsquo comes to mind when reaching our destination with the lighthouse in the background

the sun beaming down the beautiful hilly terrain meeting the rocks and the tide gracefully touching the

sand with seaweed in massive clumps creating an interesting aroma Were we lucky to be fishing today

Now it was time for all the ground work done in class to rise to the occasion and begin fishing The girls

went off to a flying start and finished the day with a grand total of 37 fish Special mentions to Ella

Mason and Ashley Mathies who contributed ten fish between them and Marli Rabe who contributed with

a hefty four

Atanas Atanasoy caught the ldquoCATCH OF THE DAYrdquo - a 30cm Skippy which he took home for dinner

Sasha Babic and Rory Noonan had four each After the long glorious successful day we managed to

pack up without a hitch and ride back along the smooth road of Rottnest Except Mr Tippet (the work

horse) had to cart the supplies back with no help The students then tracked down the quokkas for more

selfies and finished their day with delicious pies and Subway before the setting sail back to the

motherland

Mr Bean managed to keep the extremely tired students entertained Their stomachs had settled we set

off once again having conquered Rottenest to our rear and dry land to our front In summary everyone

had a great day coming home wreaking of successful fishing

Hi again Year 8s

This term has been a very busy term and is coming to an end We have had the

Lightning Carnival earlier in the term in which students tried their very best in

Soccer Basketball Netball and Volleyball The PE department were very pleased with how we

represented the school We were also very glad to have a long weekend break after working very hard

for that part of the term

Recently we had Elevate Education visit us and give us a talk called Junior Time Management in which

we learnt about how to balance our personal time with our study and homework We were also

rewarded with a sausage sizzle from Miss Arns and the Student Services team for our hard work this

term

Coming up in week 8 we have our Zero2hero week This week is all about supporting the charity called

Zero2hero which raises money for suicide prevention and was created by an ex-Greenwood student

Throughout the week Student Services have organised special

events such as mechanical bull and an obstacle course and a big

assembly on the Friday

As well as this we have Music Camp in week 8 and a HASS

excursion to Kings Park As you can tell

this is an incredibly busy week In week

9 we are being given our Semester One

Reports hopefully everyone has tried

their best this semester

After all this we have HOLIDAYS

In week 6 students from 41 42 and 43 went on an excursion to the State

Library and the Art Gallery of WA There were 41 of us so we split up into two

groups Each group had a session in the library and in the art gallery

In the Art Gallery we had to search for works of Art using clues and then write down what we saw and

what we thought In the library we attended a session called lsquoFun With Fairytalesrsquo We used ipads to

take photos for fairytales we have been studying Back at school we are using the Book Creator app on

the ipads to retell our fairytale with our photos We all know our fairytales very well now

Students from 31 32 33 and 34 went on an excursion to Caversham Wildlife Park in week 7 They

saw lots of Australian native animals and had a great day out

On 28 June students from the 4s classes will be graduating We are looking forward to the ceremony

and the excursion to bowling Some students will be moving to new schools and we hope they will stay

in touch with the friends they have made at Greenwood

Term 2 started off well with all the Year 7s finally settling into high school

Everyone knows each other and is getting along well In Week 5 it was the

Year 7 Lighting Carnival We had to choose from the sports Netball Volleyball

Soccer and Football and most sports competed against other schools We started training in week 2

with every sport and health lesson spent playing our selected sports Everyone was excited for the

carnival and played to the best of their abilities with two Netball teams placing 3rd in their Division

Overall it was a great day and everyone had fun

As we are coming to the end of Term 2 everyone is eager for the holidays to arrive So far College has

been amazing and we canrsquot wait to see what happens next

Hi guys This is the second newsletter for the year so far Itrsquos the end of week 7

and a lot has happened Letrsquos outline a few of the eventshellip (Probably not in

chronological order though)

Up first NAPLAN What a nerve-racking week There was a lot of grumbling and

groaning but I think we were all glad to be rid of the tests the next week Unfortunately for us the Big

Science Competition was on the same week More stress am I right But soon all the tests were over and

done with thank goodness for that

The Year 9s were also visited by Mr Luke Kennedy He came to talk to us about the effect labels can have

on us and that these labels donrsquot define us We really hope that every Year 9 present took his words to

heart Also this term the Year 9 Outdoor Education classes went to Rottnest The 9s had a heap of fun

fishing and biking Unfortunately for them though the water was rough and more than a few people were

sick After Rottnest came the School Sports Netball Carnival There were a lot of Year 9 girls participating

and they all had a great time playing against the top schools wining some and losing some The Division

1 team (a group of Year 9s10s) even came first in their division They will be participating in the finals

rounds in Fremantle later on this term

Last but not least the Lightning Carnival The Year 9 Lightning Carnival was yesterday the fourteenth All

the Year 9s participated and had a great fun-filled and enjoyable day The sports that were played were

Volleyball Basketball Netball Football and Soccer The Year 9s played at a range of different venues with

supporters on all sides This yearrsquos carnival was the second last wersquoll ever have and were all really sad

But wersquoll definitely make the most of our last Lightning Carnival next year

Well thatrsquos it for this term Itrsquos only a nine week term but it has been packed So much stuff has

happened some of it fun some of it not so much But wersquore all thoroughly enjoying this term so far and

Irsquom sure when we check in next term wersquoll have lots more to tell

Weve just had our immunisations against Meningococcal and have been

hard at work preparing for the year ahead of us We also have many

upcoming events such as an Interschool Sports Carnival a Drama

performance and the River Cruise

Meningococcal is a hard word to say and an even harder one to spell honestly who even names these

diseases Anyway the Year 10s had our immunisations against it so we most likely wont even have to

care how to say it or spell it For some this needle was their worst nightmare for others it was just a

free lolly and some skipped class time Either way it is over now so we can breathe a sigh of relief

Year 11 and 12 are very crucial years in a studentrsquos schooling so there needs to be a lot of preparation

to ensure theyre done right As Year 10 students going into Year 11 we have been in the process of

selecting our Year 11 subjects We have read the booklets of information about our upcoming subjects

and what they have to offer received our recommendations from our teachers for subjects next year

and had multiple meetings about it all The whole process ends on 22 June when our subject selection

sheets our due into the front office Before then many students and their parents will attend a

counselling session with a designated counsellor to go through their choices on their subject

recommendation sheets What is with all the preparation though Well the school wants us to be

prepared for Year 11 and 12 to ensure we can achieve our WACE (Western Australian Certificate of

Education) and allow for the smoothest transition into upper school ATAR students will most likely

attend university General students will either attend TAFE or seek alternative entrance to university

and Foundation students will most likely be seeking immediate employment in the workforce This all

sounds very scary and sudden but that is why we have lots and lots of preparation Just remember

kids it will be okay

Coming up is our Interschool Sports Carnival where the Greenwood Year 10s compete against Year

10s from various other schools Therell be laughter smiles sweat and maybe even some blood letrsquos

hope not Were sure itll be a fun day for everyone Good luck guys

By the time this article goes to print the Year 10 Drama productions would have concluded Currently

the Year 10 Drama students have been hard at work rehearsing and preparing a compilation of 10

minute plays for everyonersquos enjoyment The production starts on 25 June in the Drama room The

leadership group and Mr Bassanelli have been hard at work planning our Year 10 River Cruise At this

stage it is looking like being held next term in week 7 It is the one and only scheduled social event for

all the Year 10s and should be a fun night

Thank you all for reading Have a nice rest of your term enjoy your holidays and be nice to your mums

First and for most we would like to congratulate Taylor Waterson on achieving a

great milestone in her Rugby career She has represented WA in Women`s Rugby

both league and union for the Western Force She achieved this while juggling Year

12 ATAR and other school commitments We are very proud to have Taylor as a member of our year

group and we look forward to watching her succeed in the years to come

On another light note Zero2hero day is on Friday 22 June It is a mental health charity that was

founded by an ex-greenwood student and it now runs successfully at a variety of schools across Perth

The charities and the schools that run a Zero2hero day over the years have done a great job at raising

awareness and providing support to those of us that struggle with mental illness This year we are

keeping this tradition alive by extending a day of activities to a week ending on Friday with a whole

school assembly and a free dress day

It will be an especially good day for the Music students who embark on their quest to spread their

talents to the four corners of Perth

To end off we would like to remind Year 12 students about the Leaverrsquos Assembly Committee that will

meet on Monday lunch-times to create the most entertaining assembly of the year All are encouraged

to come and contribute to the last piece of our legacy

Hello all as another exciting term at Greenwood College comes to a close we have

new events exclusive to Year 11s coming up early next semester

Firstly to recap the past 9 weeks ATAR students have sat exams which posed as a

great introduction to our following senior years For those who are disappointed with

their result donrsquot stress there is plenty of time to improve before the second set of exams and for those

who did well keep up the incredible work efforts and keep striving for success Congratulations to

everyone

To all the musosrsquo your camp is just around the corner Enjoy your time in the beautiful Swan Valley

canrsquot wait to hear about it on your return Reminder to those interested in attending the Winter Concert

will be held on the Sunday and the camp in the Swan Valley

As we are sure you are all aware this week is Zero2hero week The whole week is to be filled with

communal activities that are sure to spread the positive vibes At the end of the week for our whole

school assembly we have some very special guests attending and trust us you do not want miss them

Finally the night we have all been waiting for - the Year 11 Formal As it is approaching much quicker

than we all thought We suggest you start looking for an outfit now donrsquot forget to dress to impress

Save the date 16 August - more information will be released soon

In the meantime from your Year 11 councillors we hope you enjoy your well-earned two week break

that is rapidly approaching Enjoy yourself stay safe and we will see you again after the break

Helping your child build healthy relationships Every day we interact with many other people You may not like them or agree with them but everyone deserves respect

Parents play an important role in assisting children and young people to build self-respect This leads to the development

of the values and skills needed to express respect to others There may be some variation in what represents respectful

behaviors across different cultures However in any cultural context respect is about behaviors that convey valuing and

caring about another person Helping your child develop the following skills will help them to form healthy respectful

relationships with peers and adults

Understanding and empathy Encourage your child to think about how another person may feel about something

Empathic listening Teach them to listen and show they understand another personrsquos point of view

Anger Management In times of conflict encourage them to think first before speaking stay calm and avoid hurtful

reactions

Conflict resolution Disagreements are normal in any relationship Itrsquos helpful to teach your child that to work

through a problem by understanding another personrsquos point of view To achieve a compromise or agreement is

better than winning an argument that leaves the other person feeling bullied hurt or embarrassed

Problem-solving and decision making skills Rather than you offering solutions for your childrsquos problems hold back

and support your child to generate a few possible solutions themselves Encourage them to think about the impact

of each option on themselves and others before deciding on their action

Honesty In a relationship where there is trust and acceptance there should be no reason to lie and honesty should

be encouraged

Assertiveness Help your child to learn how to stand up for themselves or to speak up about their values or needs in

a way that is non-confrontational and still respects others

On Tuesday 29 May 31 members of the Greenwood College

Vocal Ensemble went on a short excursion to Edith Cowan

University in Mount Lawley and to the Western Australian

Academy of Performing Arts Every Tuesday during the university

semester the Classical Department puts on a lunchtime concert

at 110pm Sometimes there are visiting artists Sometimes

there are local ones Sometimes there are the university

students themselves On this occasion we were treated to a

spectacular performance by Eneksis Vocal Ensemble led by Michael McCarthy one of Australias

leading specialists in Aural training in particular through the methods laid down by Zoltan Kodaly The

ensemble performed a dazzling array of pieces by Taverner Rheinberger Part Busto Biebl and others

in 4 5 6 8 and 10 part harmony all to a very high standard and all with the utmost dedication to

precision detail and expressive effect At the close of the concert more than one student commented

that some of the harmonies had given them goosebumps They were both surprised and inspired by this

particular effect We often hear about how music and sound can influence the human body but we

d o n t a l w a y s f i n d

ourselves quite so aware

of this experience After a

short afternoon tea the

students then made their

way back to the College in

time for their usual

rehearsal after school Im

so very pleased that the

students enjoyed this

special performance and

look forward to similar

outings in the future

On Friday 15 June the students and staff of the Music Department held it annual Term 2 lunchtime

Amphitheatre Rock Band Concert The Year 11 and Year 12 students of the Certificate II class were

tasked with setting up the ever increasing array of equipment required for these kinds of events Itrsquos

difficult to get these items placed on stage in time to perform let alone connected up working and

sounding as they should It requires considerable preparation and practice on the part of the students

as well as a willingness to sacrifice ones own lunch break for

the entertainment of the school There are always issues to

overcome in order to put this event on The students did an

excellent job under the circumstances First up were the Year

10-12 Senior Rock Band The Nameless with Hysteria Our

second item was presented by the Year 9-10 Intermediate

Rock Band Legacy with Rain Our third and fourth items

were presented by the Year 7-9 Junior Rock Bands Fire amp Ice

and Capacity performing Wild Thing and Better than

Revenge respectively The event serves to entertain the

students of the College as well as create a date that the

ensembles must be prepared for before then embarking on

the annual Primary School Music Tour The lunchtime concert

was very well attended with few seats spare around the

Amphitheatre My thanks to Mr Swain and Mrs Pattison the

ensembles directors for their hard work dedication and

willingness to go above and beyond to prepare our students

for these performances I am very proud of our students work

and look forward to showcasing their talents at Goollelal and

Halidon Primary School on Friday 22 June

With the World Cup in full swing it would be fair to say that Soccer has never been so popular at

Greenwood College The 2018 season saw the school field 3 Teams Senior Boys u18rsquos that are led by

Dale Gannaway with the intermediate boys (u16) and Senior Girls (u18) being coached by yours truly

The biggest group we had by far was the intermediate boys We had too many for one team but not quite

enough for two which proves that there is a huge demand for the sport here Senior Girls had a mix of

junior and more experienced players while the Senior Boys has mostly experienced players with some

debutants stepping up from last years intermediate boys team

The Senior Girls had some brilliant moments in their season

Captained by Raquyah Hameed they showed some real promise in

their first game despite going down 3-0 to Duncraig SHS Their

second game against Carine SHS was far better with more

possession and shots on goal but neither team was able to break

the deadlock and the girls walked away with their first points with 0

-0 draw A forfeit from Mater Dei gave the girls their first win but

their best game was their last game against Quinns Baptist College

The Girls lost 4-1 to them last year however this time around lead

the game 1-0 right into the second half when a mixture of fatigue

as well as a heavy dose rain saw Quinns score 2 quick goals to win the match 2-1 Our standout players

throughout the season were Chelsea Downes Asha Malde and Jacinta and Isobel Boyce

The Intermediate Boys had another tough season however the

score lines were remarkably smaller than last season A crunching

7-1 loss to Ashdale followed by a narrow 2-1 loss to Shenton

showed the boys were improving Their last game against

Churchlands was very tight in the first half with multiple chances

on goal in the first half but somehow not finding the back of the

net The second half saw Churchlands run away with a 6-0 win

Honourable mentions go to Milad Safari Jigme Dorji and Atanas

Atanasav

The Senior Boys had a mixed season They started well with a resounding 3-0 win over St Stephens the

following week saw a narrow loss to Mater Dei despite the boys playing some brilliant soccer A forfeit

from Quinns gave them a 3-0 win on paper and they needed to win their recent clash with Balga SHS to

keep their finals hopes alive Sadly despite some valiant efforts from the likes of OT Mbafumoja Regis

Gatambiye Ahmed Omer and Aaron Deeks it wasnrsquot enough with Balga taking a 2-0 win There is one

more game left in the group stage which will be an away game on 25 June against Duncraig SHS

Despite our season earlier than we normally would like you can still enjoy the World Cup

The Year 9 Outdoor Education class set out on a fishing expedition to Rottnest island on Thursday

31 May The class spent weeks preparing for the expedition learning how to set up rigs tie knots

cast out and how to snag a big one The week leading up to Rottnest had high anticipation

throughout the class the question was ldquowho was going to get the biggest catchrdquo

As the morning arrived a dark and cold chill shivered through everyone ldquooh wait thatrsquos just the

weatherrdquo A storm had decided to hit the Perth coast in full force and provided not only challenging

fishing conditions but a crazy boat ride over The weather didnrsquot seem to dampen the morale of the

class although the boat ride would soon change this You know itrsquos a good start to a boat ride when

they hand you a sick bag as you boardhelliphellip

As we left Hillaryrsquos harbour there was laughter and jokes getting thrown around until the boat

stepped out into the ocean swell and the only thing that was getting thrown around were screams from

students and the odd little vomit Some thought this was the end With the skill of the Captain or just

luck of the draw we landed safe on the island With the crazy ride over there was a sigh of relief ldquoyayrdquo

fishing time

We had keen fishermen on our hands We delegated the fishing gear out and started our trek by foot

our destinationmdash the Army jetty The fish were about to get a shock

As we arrived it was still pouring with rain and down to 10 degrees but this didnrsquot stop any ldquooutdoor

eagersrdquo With the likes of AJ no shoes no jumper and just shorts he was running to the water to get

first cast and have the chance of bragging rights for the first catch Within minutes there wasnrsquot a ldquodryrdquo

seat in the house with all students out wetting a line

Moral was high although it was a slow start to the day The only thing getting reeled in was seaweed or a

cold BANG Harry Burt is on The rod has a big bend to it and it looks to be a big onehellip hold onhellip waithellip

what is that thing ldquoSir I caught someonersquos underwearrdquo Well at least we werenrsquot going home empty

handed

With the first catch being a pair of underwear things were starting to look south The class kept at it

battling the weather they started to hit the target The fish were biting and the race was on The fish

started to get pulled in and the smiles and bragging rights started to flow The rain still coming down

sideways in buckets While Mr Tippet Mrs Tkachenko and Mr Gillespie tackled the weather with the

students Mr Walczak kept cosy under the shelter with his knitted blanket and gloves With the fishing

coming to an end Jayden was crowned Champion Angler with a total count of 12 fish Despite the

protest from Harry with his imaginary 10ft snapper that magically got away

With the gear packed up it was time to start the hike back to the boat With the boat ride we had

coming to Rottnest I think the return boat ride was on everyonersquos thoughts With a small debrief of the

day and a bit of free time to go get some food we boarded the boat and set sail for Hillaryrsquos boat

harbour The ride home was smooth sailing as the wind was low and we had the swell on our side A

safe landing at the boat harbour had topped off the trip of on a good note and left everyone with plenty

of stories to tell

The 1st of June - day two of the Year 9s fishing expedition had commenced The sun was out spirits

were high and the sea was friendly to 50 of the class which managed to keep their breakfast in

In a lot of ways group oneday 1 and group twoday 2 were polar opposites The boat ride on the

second day was majestic compared to the ldquorollierdquo tides on day one Thunderstorms and heavy rain

one day - bright and sunny days on the next Day two students were blessed to say the least

Mr Bean kept those of who didnrsquot vomit entertained for the 40-45-minute trip with his timeless

humour Mr Gillespie tried working on his lesson plans but soon realised student numbers of sea

sickness was on the rise and other students were growing restless The seasick students were

quickly bundled upstairs to grab some fresh air with teachers to console them and their upset stomachs

Arriving at Rottnest the students were eager to replenish their recently empty stomachs putting Subway

and the local bakery into overdrive On a personal note the pies and pastries were an absolute dime

and are a MUST try After the students consumed the majority of Subwaysrsquo stock and took many selfies

with quokkas as physically possible we set out to acquire our sweet rides for the day

Mr Tippet refused Mr Gillespiersquos offer to take a tandem bike and was therefore designated the work

horse for the day and was given the trailer to cart around Mrs Tkachenko was the ever proficient and

gallant ldquopack leaderrdquo Mr Erwin the squad ldquomechanicmedicrdquo and Mr Gillespie was ldquochief motivatorall-

round utilityrdquo The students were responsible for their own equipment and had become giddy with

excitement once the sweet rides were obtained

We then set off to Salmon Bay to fish the sea dry There were ups and downs but there were more ups

then downshellip then we arrived Mr Erwinsrsquo skill as a bike technician came in handy multiple times on the

arduous journey while the students struggled to keep pace with the lightning fast Mrs Tkachenko Mr

Tippet took the fable of the tortoise and the hair very literally and kept a solid pace the entire way giving

his well-manicured legs a workout he would never forget

The word lsquoscenicrsquo comes to mind when reaching our destination with the lighthouse in the background

the sun beaming down the beautiful hilly terrain meeting the rocks and the tide gracefully touching the

sand with seaweed in massive clumps creating an interesting aroma Were we lucky to be fishing today

Now it was time for all the ground work done in class to rise to the occasion and begin fishing The girls

went off to a flying start and finished the day with a grand total of 37 fish Special mentions to Ella

Mason and Ashley Mathies who contributed ten fish between them and Marli Rabe who contributed with

a hefty four

Atanas Atanasoy caught the ldquoCATCH OF THE DAYrdquo - a 30cm Skippy which he took home for dinner

Sasha Babic and Rory Noonan had four each After the long glorious successful day we managed to

pack up without a hitch and ride back along the smooth road of Rottnest Except Mr Tippet (the work

horse) had to cart the supplies back with no help The students then tracked down the quokkas for more

selfies and finished their day with delicious pies and Subway before the setting sail back to the

motherland

Mr Bean managed to keep the extremely tired students entertained Their stomachs had settled we set

off once again having conquered Rottenest to our rear and dry land to our front In summary everyone

had a great day coming home wreaking of successful fishing

Hi again Year 8s

This term has been a very busy term and is coming to an end We have had the

Lightning Carnival earlier in the term in which students tried their very best in

Soccer Basketball Netball and Volleyball The PE department were very pleased with how we

represented the school We were also very glad to have a long weekend break after working very hard

for that part of the term

Recently we had Elevate Education visit us and give us a talk called Junior Time Management in which

we learnt about how to balance our personal time with our study and homework We were also

rewarded with a sausage sizzle from Miss Arns and the Student Services team for our hard work this

term

Coming up in week 8 we have our Zero2hero week This week is all about supporting the charity called

Zero2hero which raises money for suicide prevention and was created by an ex-Greenwood student

Throughout the week Student Services have organised special

events such as mechanical bull and an obstacle course and a big

assembly on the Friday

As well as this we have Music Camp in week 8 and a HASS

excursion to Kings Park As you can tell

this is an incredibly busy week In week

9 we are being given our Semester One

Reports hopefully everyone has tried

their best this semester

After all this we have HOLIDAYS

In week 6 students from 41 42 and 43 went on an excursion to the State

Library and the Art Gallery of WA There were 41 of us so we split up into two

groups Each group had a session in the library and in the art gallery

In the Art Gallery we had to search for works of Art using clues and then write down what we saw and

what we thought In the library we attended a session called lsquoFun With Fairytalesrsquo We used ipads to

take photos for fairytales we have been studying Back at school we are using the Book Creator app on

the ipads to retell our fairytale with our photos We all know our fairytales very well now

Students from 31 32 33 and 34 went on an excursion to Caversham Wildlife Park in week 7 They

saw lots of Australian native animals and had a great day out

On 28 June students from the 4s classes will be graduating We are looking forward to the ceremony

and the excursion to bowling Some students will be moving to new schools and we hope they will stay

in touch with the friends they have made at Greenwood

Term 2 started off well with all the Year 7s finally settling into high school

Everyone knows each other and is getting along well In Week 5 it was the

Year 7 Lighting Carnival We had to choose from the sports Netball Volleyball

Soccer and Football and most sports competed against other schools We started training in week 2

with every sport and health lesson spent playing our selected sports Everyone was excited for the

carnival and played to the best of their abilities with two Netball teams placing 3rd in their Division

Overall it was a great day and everyone had fun

As we are coming to the end of Term 2 everyone is eager for the holidays to arrive So far College has

been amazing and we canrsquot wait to see what happens next

Hi guys This is the second newsletter for the year so far Itrsquos the end of week 7

and a lot has happened Letrsquos outline a few of the eventshellip (Probably not in

chronological order though)

Up first NAPLAN What a nerve-racking week There was a lot of grumbling and

groaning but I think we were all glad to be rid of the tests the next week Unfortunately for us the Big

Science Competition was on the same week More stress am I right But soon all the tests were over and

done with thank goodness for that

The Year 9s were also visited by Mr Luke Kennedy He came to talk to us about the effect labels can have

on us and that these labels donrsquot define us We really hope that every Year 9 present took his words to

heart Also this term the Year 9 Outdoor Education classes went to Rottnest The 9s had a heap of fun

fishing and biking Unfortunately for them though the water was rough and more than a few people were

sick After Rottnest came the School Sports Netball Carnival There were a lot of Year 9 girls participating

and they all had a great time playing against the top schools wining some and losing some The Division

1 team (a group of Year 9s10s) even came first in their division They will be participating in the finals

rounds in Fremantle later on this term

Last but not least the Lightning Carnival The Year 9 Lightning Carnival was yesterday the fourteenth All

the Year 9s participated and had a great fun-filled and enjoyable day The sports that were played were

Volleyball Basketball Netball Football and Soccer The Year 9s played at a range of different venues with

supporters on all sides This yearrsquos carnival was the second last wersquoll ever have and were all really sad

But wersquoll definitely make the most of our last Lightning Carnival next year

Well thatrsquos it for this term Itrsquos only a nine week term but it has been packed So much stuff has

happened some of it fun some of it not so much But wersquore all thoroughly enjoying this term so far and

Irsquom sure when we check in next term wersquoll have lots more to tell

Weve just had our immunisations against Meningococcal and have been

hard at work preparing for the year ahead of us We also have many

upcoming events such as an Interschool Sports Carnival a Drama

performance and the River Cruise

Meningococcal is a hard word to say and an even harder one to spell honestly who even names these

diseases Anyway the Year 10s had our immunisations against it so we most likely wont even have to

care how to say it or spell it For some this needle was their worst nightmare for others it was just a

free lolly and some skipped class time Either way it is over now so we can breathe a sigh of relief

Year 11 and 12 are very crucial years in a studentrsquos schooling so there needs to be a lot of preparation

to ensure theyre done right As Year 10 students going into Year 11 we have been in the process of

selecting our Year 11 subjects We have read the booklets of information about our upcoming subjects

and what they have to offer received our recommendations from our teachers for subjects next year

and had multiple meetings about it all The whole process ends on 22 June when our subject selection

sheets our due into the front office Before then many students and their parents will attend a

counselling session with a designated counsellor to go through their choices on their subject

recommendation sheets What is with all the preparation though Well the school wants us to be

prepared for Year 11 and 12 to ensure we can achieve our WACE (Western Australian Certificate of

Education) and allow for the smoothest transition into upper school ATAR students will most likely

attend university General students will either attend TAFE or seek alternative entrance to university

and Foundation students will most likely be seeking immediate employment in the workforce This all

sounds very scary and sudden but that is why we have lots and lots of preparation Just remember

kids it will be okay

Coming up is our Interschool Sports Carnival where the Greenwood Year 10s compete against Year

10s from various other schools Therell be laughter smiles sweat and maybe even some blood letrsquos

hope not Were sure itll be a fun day for everyone Good luck guys

By the time this article goes to print the Year 10 Drama productions would have concluded Currently

the Year 10 Drama students have been hard at work rehearsing and preparing a compilation of 10

minute plays for everyonersquos enjoyment The production starts on 25 June in the Drama room The

leadership group and Mr Bassanelli have been hard at work planning our Year 10 River Cruise At this

stage it is looking like being held next term in week 7 It is the one and only scheduled social event for

all the Year 10s and should be a fun night

Thank you all for reading Have a nice rest of your term enjoy your holidays and be nice to your mums

First and for most we would like to congratulate Taylor Waterson on achieving a

great milestone in her Rugby career She has represented WA in Women`s Rugby

both league and union for the Western Force She achieved this while juggling Year

12 ATAR and other school commitments We are very proud to have Taylor as a member of our year

group and we look forward to watching her succeed in the years to come

On another light note Zero2hero day is on Friday 22 June It is a mental health charity that was

founded by an ex-greenwood student and it now runs successfully at a variety of schools across Perth

The charities and the schools that run a Zero2hero day over the years have done a great job at raising

awareness and providing support to those of us that struggle with mental illness This year we are

keeping this tradition alive by extending a day of activities to a week ending on Friday with a whole

school assembly and a free dress day

It will be an especially good day for the Music students who embark on their quest to spread their

talents to the four corners of Perth

To end off we would like to remind Year 12 students about the Leaverrsquos Assembly Committee that will

meet on Monday lunch-times to create the most entertaining assembly of the year All are encouraged

to come and contribute to the last piece of our legacy

Hello all as another exciting term at Greenwood College comes to a close we have

new events exclusive to Year 11s coming up early next semester

Firstly to recap the past 9 weeks ATAR students have sat exams which posed as a

great introduction to our following senior years For those who are disappointed with

their result donrsquot stress there is plenty of time to improve before the second set of exams and for those

who did well keep up the incredible work efforts and keep striving for success Congratulations to

everyone

To all the musosrsquo your camp is just around the corner Enjoy your time in the beautiful Swan Valley

canrsquot wait to hear about it on your return Reminder to those interested in attending the Winter Concert

will be held on the Sunday and the camp in the Swan Valley

As we are sure you are all aware this week is Zero2hero week The whole week is to be filled with

communal activities that are sure to spread the positive vibes At the end of the week for our whole

school assembly we have some very special guests attending and trust us you do not want miss them

Finally the night we have all been waiting for - the Year 11 Formal As it is approaching much quicker

than we all thought We suggest you start looking for an outfit now donrsquot forget to dress to impress

Save the date 16 August - more information will be released soon

In the meantime from your Year 11 councillors we hope you enjoy your well-earned two week break

that is rapidly approaching Enjoy yourself stay safe and we will see you again after the break

Helping your child build healthy relationships Every day we interact with many other people You may not like them or agree with them but everyone deserves respect

Parents play an important role in assisting children and young people to build self-respect This leads to the development

of the values and skills needed to express respect to others There may be some variation in what represents respectful

behaviors across different cultures However in any cultural context respect is about behaviors that convey valuing and

caring about another person Helping your child develop the following skills will help them to form healthy respectful

relationships with peers and adults

Understanding and empathy Encourage your child to think about how another person may feel about something

Empathic listening Teach them to listen and show they understand another personrsquos point of view

Anger Management In times of conflict encourage them to think first before speaking stay calm and avoid hurtful

reactions

Conflict resolution Disagreements are normal in any relationship Itrsquos helpful to teach your child that to work

through a problem by understanding another personrsquos point of view To achieve a compromise or agreement is

better than winning an argument that leaves the other person feeling bullied hurt or embarrassed

Problem-solving and decision making skills Rather than you offering solutions for your childrsquos problems hold back

and support your child to generate a few possible solutions themselves Encourage them to think about the impact

of each option on themselves and others before deciding on their action

Honesty In a relationship where there is trust and acceptance there should be no reason to lie and honesty should

be encouraged

Assertiveness Help your child to learn how to stand up for themselves or to speak up about their values or needs in

a way that is non-confrontational and still respects others

Simone Priestley

On Tuesday 29 May 31 members of the Greenwood College

Vocal Ensemble went on a short excursion to Edith Cowan

University in Mount Lawley and to the Western Australian

Academy of Performing Arts Every Tuesday during the university

semester the Classical Department puts on a lunchtime concert

at 110pm Sometimes there are visiting artists Sometimes

there are local ones Sometimes there are the university

students themselves On this occasion we were treated to a

spectacular performance by Eneksis Vocal Ensemble led by Michael McCarthy one of Australias

leading specialists in Aural training in particular through the methods laid down by Zoltan Kodaly The

ensemble performed a dazzling array of pieces by Taverner Rheinberger Part Busto Biebl and others

in 4 5 6 8 and 10 part harmony all to a very high standard and all with the utmost dedication to

precision detail and expressive effect At the close of the concert more than one student commented

that some of the harmonies had given them goosebumps They were both surprised and inspired by this

particular effect We often hear about how music and sound can influence the human body but we

d o n t a l w a y s f i n d

ourselves quite so aware

of this experience After a

short afternoon tea the

students then made their

way back to the College in

time for their usual

rehearsal after school Im

so very pleased that the

students enjoyed this

special performance and

look forward to similar

outings in the future

On Friday 15 June the students and staff of the Music Department held it annual Term 2 lunchtime

Amphitheatre Rock Band Concert The Year 11 and Year 12 students of the Certificate II class were

tasked with setting up the ever increasing array of equipment required for these kinds of events Itrsquos

difficult to get these items placed on stage in time to perform let alone connected up working and

sounding as they should It requires considerable preparation and practice on the part of the students

as well as a willingness to sacrifice ones own lunch break for

the entertainment of the school There are always issues to

overcome in order to put this event on The students did an

excellent job under the circumstances First up were the Year

10-12 Senior Rock Band The Nameless with Hysteria Our

second item was presented by the Year 9-10 Intermediate

Rock Band Legacy with Rain Our third and fourth items

were presented by the Year 7-9 Junior Rock Bands Fire amp Ice

and Capacity performing Wild Thing and Better than

Revenge respectively The event serves to entertain the

students of the College as well as create a date that the

ensembles must be prepared for before then embarking on

the annual Primary School Music Tour The lunchtime concert

was very well attended with few seats spare around the

Amphitheatre My thanks to Mr Swain and Mrs Pattison the

ensembles directors for their hard work dedication and

willingness to go above and beyond to prepare our students

for these performances I am very proud of our students work

and look forward to showcasing their talents at Goollelal and

Halidon Primary School on Friday 22 June

America destinations Laguna Colorada in Bolivia and Bloody Red Lake

in the mountains of Chile The waters of these two lagoons have intense

orange hue which is contrasting amazingly with the landscape

The same student has become recently a winner of drone

photography in New Drones of Australia and took a 4th

With the World Cup in full swing it would be fair to say that Soccer has never been so popular at

Greenwood College The 2018 season saw the school field 3 Teams Senior Boys u18rsquos that are led by

Dale Gannaway with the intermediate boys (u16) and Senior Girls (u18) being coached by yours truly

The biggest group we had by far was the intermediate boys We had too many for one team but not quite

enough for two which proves that there is a huge demand for the sport here Senior Girls had a mix of

junior and more experienced players while the Senior Boys has mostly experienced players with some

debutants stepping up from last years intermediate boys team

The Senior Girls had some brilliant moments in their season

Captained by Raquyah Hameed they showed some real promise in

their first game despite going down 3-0 to Duncraig SHS Their

second game against Carine SHS was far better with more

possession and shots on goal but neither team was able to break

the deadlock and the girls walked away with their first points with 0

-0 draw A forfeit from Mater Dei gave the girls their first win but

their best game was their last game against Quinns Baptist College

The Girls lost 4-1 to them last year however this time around lead

the game 1-0 right into the second half when a mixture of fatigue

as well as a heavy dose rain saw Quinns score 2 quick goals to win the match 2-1 Our standout players

throughout the season were Chelsea Downes Asha Malde and Jacinta and Isobel Boyce

The Intermediate Boys had another tough season however the

score lines were remarkably smaller than last season A crunching

7-1 loss to Ashdale followed by a narrow 2-1 loss to Shenton

showed the boys were improving Their last game against

Churchlands was very tight in the first half with multiple chances

on goal in the first half but somehow not finding the back of the

net The second half saw Churchlands run away with a 6-0 win

Honourable mentions go to Milad Safari Jigme Dorji and Atanas

Atanasav

The Senior Boys had a mixed season They started well with a resounding 3-0 win over St Stephens the

following week saw a narrow loss to Mater Dei despite the boys playing some brilliant soccer A forfeit

from Quinns gave them a 3-0 win on paper and they needed to win their recent clash with Balga SHS to

keep their finals hopes alive Sadly despite some valiant efforts from the likes of OT Mbafumoja Regis

Gatambiye Ahmed Omer and Aaron Deeks it wasnrsquot enough with Balga taking a 2-0 win There is one

more game left in the group stage which will be an away game on 25 June against Duncraig SHS

Despite our season earlier than we normally would like you can still enjoy the World Cup

The Year 9 Outdoor Education class set out on a fishing expedition to Rottnest island on Thursday

31 May The class spent weeks preparing for the expedition learning how to set up rigs tie knots

cast out and how to snag a big one The week leading up to Rottnest had high anticipation

throughout the class the question was ldquowho was going to get the biggest catchrdquo

As the morning arrived a dark and cold chill shivered through everyone ldquooh wait thatrsquos just the

weatherrdquo A storm had decided to hit the Perth coast in full force and provided not only challenging

fishing conditions but a crazy boat ride over The weather didnrsquot seem to dampen the morale of the

class although the boat ride would soon change this You know itrsquos a good start to a boat ride when

they hand you a sick bag as you boardhelliphellip

As we left Hillaryrsquos harbour there was laughter and jokes getting thrown around until the boat

stepped out into the ocean swell and the only thing that was getting thrown around were screams from

students and the odd little vomit Some thought this was the end With the skill of the Captain or just

luck of the draw we landed safe on the island With the crazy ride over there was a sigh of relief ldquoyayrdquo

fishing time

We had keen fishermen on our hands We delegated the fishing gear out and started our trek by foot

our destinationmdash the Army jetty The fish were about to get a shock

As we arrived it was still pouring with rain and down to 10 degrees but this didnrsquot stop any ldquooutdoor

eagersrdquo With the likes of AJ no shoes no jumper and just shorts he was running to the water to get

first cast and have the chance of bragging rights for the first catch Within minutes there wasnrsquot a ldquodryrdquo

seat in the house with all students out wetting a line

Moral was high although it was a slow start to the day The only thing getting reeled in was seaweed or a

cold BANG Harry Burt is on The rod has a big bend to it and it looks to be a big onehellip hold onhellip waithellip

what is that thing ldquoSir I caught someonersquos underwearrdquo Well at least we werenrsquot going home empty

handed

With the first catch being a pair of underwear things were starting to look south The class kept at it

battling the weather they started to hit the target The fish were biting and the race was on The fish

started to get pulled in and the smiles and bragging rights started to flow The rain still coming down

sideways in buckets While Mr Tippet Mrs Tkachenko and Mr Gillespie tackled the weather with the

students Mr Walczak kept cosy under the shelter with his knitted blanket and gloves With the fishing

coming to an end Jayden was crowned Champion Angler with a total count of 12 fish Despite the

protest from Harry with his imaginary 10ft snapper that magically got away

With the gear packed up it was time to start the hike back to the boat With the boat ride we had

coming to Rottnest I think the return boat ride was on everyonersquos thoughts With a small debrief of the

day and a bit of free time to go get some food we boarded the boat and set sail for Hillaryrsquos boat

harbour The ride home was smooth sailing as the wind was low and we had the swell on our side A

safe landing at the boat harbour had topped off the trip of on a good note and left everyone with plenty

of stories to tell

O U T D O O R E D ( P R A C T E A C H E R )

The 1st of June - day two of the Year 9s fishing expedition had commenced The sun was out spirits

were high and the sea was friendly to 50 of the class which managed to keep their breakfast in

In a lot of ways group oneday 1 and group twoday 2 were polar opposites The boat ride on the

second day was majestic compared to the ldquorollierdquo tides on day one Thunderstorms and heavy rain

one day - bright and sunny days on the next Day two students were blessed to say the least

Mr Bean kept those of who didnrsquot vomit entertained for the 40-45-minute trip with his timeless

humour Mr Gillespie tried working on his lesson plans but soon realised student numbers of sea

sickness was on the rise and other students were growing restless The seasick students were

quickly bundled upstairs to grab some fresh air with teachers to console them and their upset stomachs

Arriving at Rottnest the students were eager to replenish their recently empty stomachs putting Subway

and the local bakery into overdrive On a personal note the pies and pastries were an absolute dime

and are a MUST try After the students consumed the majority of Subwaysrsquo stock and took many selfies

with quokkas as physically possible we set out to acquire our sweet rides for the day

Mr Tippet refused Mr Gillespiersquos offer to take a tandem bike and was therefore designated the work

horse for the day and was given the trailer to cart around Mrs Tkachenko was the ever proficient and

gallant ldquopack leaderrdquo Mr Erwin the squad ldquomechanicmedicrdquo and Mr Gillespie was ldquochief motivatorall-

round utilityrdquo The students were responsible for their own equipment and had become giddy with

excitement once the sweet rides were obtained

We then set off to Salmon Bay to fish the sea dry There were ups and downs but there were more ups

then downshellip then we arrived Mr Erwinsrsquo skill as a bike technician came in handy multiple times on the

arduous journey while the students struggled to keep pace with the lightning fast Mrs Tkachenko Mr

Tippet took the fable of the tortoise and the hair very literally and kept a solid pace the entire way giving

his well-manicured legs a workout he would never forget

The word lsquoscenicrsquo comes to mind when reaching our destination with the lighthouse in the background

the sun beaming down the beautiful hilly terrain meeting the rocks and the tide gracefully touching the

sand with seaweed in massive clumps creating an interesting aroma Were we lucky to be fishing today

Now it was time for all the ground work done in class to rise to the occasion and begin fishing The girls

went off to a flying start and finished the day with a grand total of 37 fish Special mentions to Ella

Mason and Ashley Mathies who contributed ten fish between them and Marli Rabe who contributed with

a hefty four

Atanas Atanasoy caught the ldquoCATCH OF THE DAYrdquo - a 30cm Skippy which he took home for dinner

Sasha Babic and Rory Noonan had four each After the long glorious successful day we managed to

pack up without a hitch and ride back along the smooth road of Rottnest Except Mr Tippet (the work

horse) had to cart the supplies back with no help The students then tracked down the quokkas for more

selfies and finished their day with delicious pies and Subway before the setting sail back to the

motherland

Mr Bean managed to keep the extremely tired students entertained Their stomachs had settled we set

off once again having conquered Rottenest to our rear and dry land to our front In summary everyone

had a great day coming home wreaking of successful fishing

Hi guys This is the second newsletter for the year so far Itrsquos the end of week 7

and a lot has happened Letrsquos outline a few of the eventshellip (Probably not in

chronological order though)

Up first NAPLAN What a nerve-racking week There was a lot of grumbling and

groaning but I think we were all glad to be rid of the tests the next week Unfortunately for us the Big

Science Competition was on the same week More stress am I right But soon all the tests were over and

done with thank goodness for that

The Year 9s were also visited by Mr Luke Kennedy He came to talk to us about the effect labels can have

on us and that these labels donrsquot define us We really hope that every Year 9 present took his words to

heart Also this term the Year 9 Outdoor Education classes went to Rottnest The 9s had a heap of fun

fishing and biking Unfortunately for them though the water was rough and more than a few people were

sick After Rottnest came the School Sports Netball Carnival There were a lot of Year 9 girls participating

and they all had a great time playing against the top schools wining some and losing some The Division

1 team (a group of Year 9s10s) even came first in their division They will be participating in the finals

rounds in Fremantle later on this term

Last but not least the Lightning Carnival The Year 9 Lightning Carnival was yesterday the fourteenth All

the Year 9s participated and had a great fun-filled and enjoyable day The sports that were played were

Volleyball Basketball Netball Football and Soccer The Year 9s played at a range of different venues with

supporters on all sides This yearrsquos carnival was the second last wersquoll ever have and were all really sad

But wersquoll definitely make the most of our last Lightning Carnival next year

Well thatrsquos it for this term Itrsquos only a nine week term but it has been packed So much stuff has

happened some of it fun some of it not so much But wersquore all thoroughly enjoying this term so far and

Irsquom sure when we check in next term wersquoll have lots more to tell

Weve just had our immunisations against Meningococcal and have been

hard at work preparing for the year ahead of us We also have many

upcoming events such as an Interschool Sports Carnival a Drama

performance and the River Cruise

Meningococcal is a hard word to say and an even harder one to spell honestly who even names these

diseases Anyway the Year 10s had our immunisations against it so we most likely wont even have to

care how to say it or spell it For some this needle was their worst nightmare for others it was just a

free lolly and some skipped class time Either way it is over now so we can breathe a sigh of relief

Year 11 and 12 are very crucial years in a studentrsquos schooling so there needs to be a lot of preparation

to ensure theyre done right As Year 10 students going into Year 11 we have been in the process of

selecting our Year 11 subjects We have read the booklets of information about our upcoming subjects

and what they have to offer received our recommendations from our teachers for subjects next year

and had multiple meetings about it all The whole process ends on 22 June when our subject selection

sheets our due into the front office Before then many students and their parents will attend a

counselling session with a designated counsellor to go through their choices on their subject

recommendation sheets What is with all the preparation though Well the school wants us to be

prepared for Year 11 and 12 to ensure we can achieve our WACE (Western Australian Certificate of

Education) and allow for the smoothest transition into upper school ATAR students will most likely

attend university General students will either attend TAFE or seek alternative entrance to university

and Foundation students will most likely be seeking immediate employment in the workforce This all

sounds very scary and sudden but that is why we have lots and lots of preparation Just remember

kids it will be okay

Coming up is our Interschool Sports Carnival where the Greenwood Year 10s compete against Year

10s from various other schools Therell be laughter smiles sweat and maybe even some blood letrsquos

hope not Were sure itll be a fun day for everyone Good luck guys

By the time this article goes to print the Year 10 Drama productions would have concluded Currently

the Year 10 Drama students have been hard at work rehearsing and preparing a compilation of 10

minute plays for everyonersquos enjoyment The production starts on 25 June in the Drama room The

leadership group and Mr Bassanelli have been hard at work planning our Year 10 River Cruise At this

stage it is looking like being held next term in week 7 It is the one and only scheduled social event for

all the Year 10s and should be a fun night

Thank you all for reading Have a nice rest of your term enjoy your holidays and be nice to your mums

group and we look forward to watching her succeed in the years to come

On another light note Zero2hero day is on Friday 22 June It is a mental health charity that was

founded by an ex-greenwood student and it now runs successfully at a variety of schools across Perth

The charities and the schools that run a Zero2hero day over the years have done a great job at raising

awareness and providing support to those of us that struggle with mental illness This year we are

keeping this tradition alive by extending a day of activities to a week ending on Friday with a whole

school assembly and a free dress day

It will be an especially good day for the Music students who embark on their quest to spread their

talents to the four corners of Perth

To end off we would like to remind Year 12 students about the Leaverrsquos Assembly Committee that will

meet on Monday lunch-times to create the most entertaining assembly of the year All are encouraged

to come and contribute to the last piece of our legacy

Hello all as another exciting term at Greenwood College comes to a close we have

new events exclusive to Year 11s coming up early next semester

Firstly to recap the past 9 weeks ATAR students have sat exams which posed as a

great introduction to our following senior years For those who are disappointed with

their result donrsquot stress there is plenty of time to improve before the second set of exams and for those

who did well keep up the incredible work efforts and keep striving for success Congratulations to

everyone

To all the musosrsquo your camp is just around the corner Enjoy your time in the beautiful Swan Valley

canrsquot wait to hear about it on your return Reminder to those interested in attending the Winter Concert

will be held on the Sunday and the camp in the Swan Valley

As we are sure you are all aware this week is Zero2hero week The whole week is to be filled with

communal activities that are sure to spread the positive vibes At the end of the week for our whole

school assembly we have some very special guests attending and trust us you do not want miss them

Finally the night we have all been waiting for - the Year 11 Formal As it is approaching much quicker

than we all thought We suggest you start looking for an outfit now donrsquot forget to dress to impress

Save the date 16 August - more information will be released soon

In the meantime from your Year 11 councillors we hope you enjoy your well-earned two week break

that is rapidly approaching Enjoy yourself stay safe and we will see you again after the break

Helping your child build healthy relationships Every day we interact with many other people You may not like them or agree with them but everyone deserves respect

Parents play an important role in assisting children and young people to build self-respect This leads to the development

of the values and skills needed to express respect to others There may be some variation in what represents respectful

behaviors across different cultures However in any cultural context respect is about behaviors that convey valuing and

caring about another person Helping your child develop the following skills will help them to form healthy respectful

relationships with peers and adults

Understanding and empathy Encourage your child to think about how another person may feel about something

Empathic listening Teach them to listen and show they understand another personrsquos point of view

Anger Management In times of conflict encourage them to think first before speaking stay calm and avoid hurtful

reactions

Conflict resolution Disagreements are normal in any relationship Itrsquos helpful to teach your child that to work

through a problem by understanding another personrsquos point of view To achieve a compromise or agreement is

better than winning an argument that leaves the other person feeling bullied hurt or embarrassed

Problem-solving and decision making skills Rather than you offering solutions for your childrsquos problems hold back

and support your child to generate a few possible solutions themselves Encourage them to think about the impact

of each option on themselves and others before deciding on their action

Honesty In a relationship where there is trust and acceptance there should be no reason to lie and honesty should

be encouraged

Assertiveness Help your child to learn how to stand up for themselves or to speak up about their values or needs in

a way that is non-confrontational and still respects others

On Tuesday 29 May 31 members of the Greenwood College

Vocal Ensemble went on a short excursion to Edith Cowan

University in Mount Lawley and to the Western Australian

Academy of Performing Arts Every Tuesday during the university

semester the Classical Department puts on a lunchtime concert

at 110pm Sometimes there are visiting artists Sometimes

there are local ones Sometimes there are the university

students themselves On this occasion we were treated to a

spectacular performance by Eneksis Vocal Ensemble led by Michael McCarthy one of Australias

leading specialists in Aural training in particular through the methods laid down by Zoltan Kodaly The

ensemble performed a dazzling array of pieces by Taverner Rheinberger Part Busto Biebl and others

in 4 5 6 8 and 10 part harmony all to a very high standard and all with the utmost dedication to

precision detail and expressive effect At the close of the concert more than one student commented

that some of the harmonies had given them goosebumps They were both surprised and inspired by this

particular effect We often hear about how music and sound can influence the human body but we

d o n t a l w a y s f i n d

ourselves quite so aware

of this experience After a

short afternoon tea the

students then made their

way back to the College in

time for their usual

rehearsal after school Im

so very pleased that the

students enjoyed this

special performance and

look forward to similar

outings in the future

On Friday 15 June the students and staff of the Music Department held it annual Term 2 lunchtime

Amphitheatre Rock Band Concert The Year 11 and Year 12 students of the Certificate II class were

tasked with setting up the ever increasing array of equipment required for these kinds of events Itrsquos

difficult to get these items placed on stage in time to perform let alone connected up working and

sounding as they should It requires considerable preparation and practice on the part of the students

as well as a willingness to sacrifice ones own lunch break for

the entertainment of the school There are always issues to

overcome in order to put this event on The students did an

excellent job under the circumstances First up were the Year

10-12 Senior Rock Band The Nameless with Hysteria Our

second item was presented by the Year 9-10 Intermediate

Rock Band Legacy with Rain Our third and fourth items

were presented by the Year 7-9 Junior Rock Bands Fire amp Ice

and Capacity performing Wild Thing and Better than

Revenge respectively The event serves to entertain the

students of the College as well as create a date that the

ensembles must be prepared for before then embarking on

the annual Primary School Music Tour The lunchtime concert

was very well attended with few seats spare around the

Amphitheatre My thanks to Mr Swain and Mrs Pattison the

ensembles directors for their hard work dedication and

willingness to go above and beyond to prepare our students

for these performances I am very proud of our students work

and look forward to showcasing their talents at Goollelal and

Halidon Primary School on Friday 22 June

With the World Cup in full swing it would be fair to say that Soccer has never been so popular at

Greenwood College The 2018 season saw the school field 3 Teams Senior Boys u18rsquos that are led by

Dale Gannaway with the intermediate boys (u16) and Senior Girls (u18) being coached by yours truly

The biggest group we had by far was the intermediate boys We had too many for one team but not quite

enough for two which proves that there is a huge demand for the sport here Senior Girls had a mix of

junior and more experienced players while the Senior Boys has mostly experienced players with some

debutants stepping up from last years intermediate boys team

The Senior Girls had some brilliant moments in their season

Captained by Raquyah Hameed they showed some real promise in

their first game despite going down 3-0 to Duncraig SHS Their

second game against Carine SHS was far better with more

possession and shots on goal but neither team was able to break

the deadlock and the girls walked away with their first points with 0

-0 draw A forfeit from Mater Dei gave the girls their first win but

their best game was their last game against Quinns Baptist College

The Girls lost 4-1 to them last year however this time around lead

the game 1-0 right into the second half when a mixture of fatigue

as well as a heavy dose rain saw Quinns score 2 quick goals to win the match 2-1 Our standout players

throughout the season were Chelsea Downes Asha Malde and Jacinta and Isobel Boyce

The Intermediate Boys had another tough season however the

score lines were remarkably smaller than last season A crunching

7-1 loss to Ashdale followed by a narrow 2-1 loss to Shenton

showed the boys were improving Their last game against

Churchlands was very tight in the first half with multiple chances

on goal in the first half but somehow not finding the back of the

net The second half saw Churchlands run away with a 6-0 win

Honourable mentions go to Milad Safari Jigme Dorji and Atanas

Atanasav

The Senior Boys had a mixed season They started well with a resounding 3-0 win over St Stephens the

following week saw a narrow loss to Mater Dei despite the boys playing some brilliant soccer A forfeit

from Quinns gave them a 3-0 win on paper and they needed to win their recent clash with Balga SHS to

keep their finals hopes alive Sadly despite some valiant efforts from the likes of OT Mbafumoja Regis

Gatambiye Ahmed Omer and Aaron Deeks it wasnrsquot enough with Balga taking a 2-0 win There is one

more game left in the group stage which will be an away game on 25 June against Duncraig SHS

Despite our season earlier than we normally would like you can still enjoy the World Cup

The Year 9 Outdoor Education class set out on a fishing expedition to Rottnest island on Thursday

31 May The class spent weeks preparing for the expedition learning how to set up rigs tie knots

cast out and how to snag a big one The week leading up to Rottnest had high anticipation

throughout the class the question was ldquowho was going to get the biggest catchrdquo

As the morning arrived a dark and cold chill shivered through everyone ldquooh wait thatrsquos just the

weatherrdquo A storm had decided to hit the Perth coast in full force and provided not only challenging

fishing conditions but a crazy boat ride over The weather didnrsquot seem to dampen the morale of the

class although the boat ride would soon change this You know itrsquos a good start to a boat ride when

they hand you a sick bag as you boardhelliphellip

As we left Hillaryrsquos harbour there was laughter and jokes getting thrown around until the boat

stepped out into the ocean swell and the only thing that was getting thrown around were screams from

students and the odd little vomit Some thought this was the end With the skill of the Captain or just

luck of the draw we landed safe on the island With the crazy ride over there was a sigh of relief ldquoyayrdquo

fishing time

We had keen fishermen on our hands We delegated the fishing gear out and started our trek by foot

our destinationmdash the Army jetty The fish were about to get a shock

As we arrived it was still pouring with rain and down to 10 degrees but this didnrsquot stop any ldquooutdoor

eagersrdquo With the likes of AJ no shoes no jumper and just shorts he was running to the water to get

first cast and have the chance of bragging rights for the first catch Within minutes there wasnrsquot a ldquodryrdquo

seat in the house with all students out wetting a line

Moral was high although it was a slow start to the day The only thing getting reeled in was seaweed or a

cold BANG Harry Burt is on The rod has a big bend to it and it looks to be a big onehellip hold onhellip waithellip

what is that thing ldquoSir I caught someonersquos underwearrdquo Well at least we werenrsquot going home empty

handed

With the first catch being a pair of underwear things were starting to look south The class kept at it

battling the weather they started to hit the target The fish were biting and the race was on The fish

started to get pulled in and the smiles and bragging rights started to flow The rain still coming down

sideways in buckets While Mr Tippet Mrs Tkachenko and Mr Gillespie tackled the weather with the

students Mr Walczak kept cosy under the shelter with his knitted blanket and gloves With the fishing

coming to an end Jayden was crowned Champion Angler with a total count of 12 fish Despite the

protest from Harry with his imaginary 10ft snapper that magically got away

With the gear packed up it was time to start the hike back to the boat With the boat ride we had

coming to Rottnest I think the return boat ride was on everyonersquos thoughts With a small debrief of the

day and a bit of free time to go get some food we boarded the boat and set sail for Hillaryrsquos boat

harbour The ride home was smooth sailing as the wind was low and we had the swell on our side A

safe landing at the boat harbour had topped off the trip of on a good note and left everyone with plenty

of stories to tell

The 1st of June - day two of the Year 9s fishing expedition had commenced The sun was out spirits

were high and the sea was friendly to 50 of the class which managed to keep their breakfast in

In a lot of ways group oneday 1 and group twoday 2 were polar opposites The boat ride on the

second day was majestic compared to the ldquorollierdquo tides on day one Thunderstorms and heavy rain

one day - bright and sunny days on the next Day two students were blessed to say the least

Mr Bean kept those of who didnrsquot vomit entertained for the 40-45-minute trip with his timeless

humour Mr Gillespie tried working on his lesson plans but soon realised student numbers of sea

sickness was on the rise and other students were growing restless The seasick students were

quickly bundled upstairs to grab some fresh air with teachers to console them and their upset stomachs

Arriving at Rottnest the students were eager to replenish their recently empty stomachs putting Subway

and the local bakery into overdrive On a personal note the pies and pastries were an absolute dime

and are a MUST try After the students consumed the majority of Subwaysrsquo stock and took many selfies

with quokkas as physically possible we set out to acquire our sweet rides for the day

Mr Tippet refused Mr Gillespiersquos offer to take a tandem bike and was therefore designated the work

horse for the day and was given the trailer to cart around Mrs Tkachenko was the ever proficient and

gallant ldquopack leaderrdquo Mr Erwin the squad ldquomechanicmedicrdquo and Mr Gillespie was ldquochief motivatorall-

round utilityrdquo The students were responsible for their own equipment and had become giddy with

excitement once the sweet rides were obtained

We then set off to Salmon Bay to fish the sea dry There were ups and downs but there were more ups

then downshellip then we arrived Mr Erwinsrsquo skill as a bike technician came in handy multiple times on the

arduous journey while the students struggled to keep pace with the lightning fast Mrs Tkachenko Mr

Tippet took the fable of the tortoise and the hair very literally and kept a solid pace the entire way giving

his well-manicured legs a workout he would never forget

The word lsquoscenicrsquo comes to mind when reaching our destination with the lighthouse in the background

the sun beaming down the beautiful hilly terrain meeting the rocks and the tide gracefully touching the

sand with seaweed in massive clumps creating an interesting aroma Were we lucky to be fishing today

Now it was time for all the ground work done in class to rise to the occasion and begin fishing The girls

went off to a flying start and finished the day with a grand total of 37 fish Special mentions to Ella

Mason and Ashley Mathies who contributed ten fish between them and Marli Rabe who contributed with

a hefty four

Atanas Atanasoy caught the ldquoCATCH OF THE DAYrdquo - a 30cm Skippy which he took home for dinner

Sasha Babic and Rory Noonan had four each After the long glorious successful day we managed to

pack up without a hitch and ride back along the smooth road of Rottnest Except Mr Tippet (the work

horse) had to cart the supplies back with no help The students then tracked down the quokkas for more

selfies and finished their day with delicious pies and Subway before the setting sail back to the

motherland

Mr Bean managed to keep the extremely tired students entertained Their stomachs had settled we set

off once again having conquered Rottenest to our rear and dry land to our front In summary everyone

had a great day coming home wreaking of successful fishing

First and for most we would like to congratulate Taylor Waterson on achieving a

great milestone in her Rugby career She has represented WA in Women`s Rugby

both league and union for the Western Force She achieved this while juggling Year

12 ATAR and other school commitments We are very proud to have Taylor as a member of our year

group and we look forward to watching her succeed in the years to come

On another light note Zero2hero day is on Friday 22 June It is a mental health charity that was

founded by an ex-greenwood student and it now runs successfully at a variety of schools across Perth

The charities and the schools that run a Zero2hero day over the years have done a great job at raising

awareness and providing support to those of us that struggle with mental illness This year we are

keeping this tradition alive by extending a day of activities to a week ending on Friday with a whole

school assembly and a free dress day

It will be an especially good day for the Music students who embark on their quest to spread their

talents to the four corners of Perth

To end off we would like to remind Year 12 students about the Leaverrsquos Assembly Committee that will

meet on Monday lunch-times to create the most entertaining assembly of the year All are encouraged

to come and contribute to the last piece of our legacy

Hello all as another exciting term at Greenwood College comes to a close we have

new events exclusive to Year 11s coming up early next semester

Firstly to recap the past 9 weeks ATAR students have sat exams which posed as a

great introduction to our following senior years For those who are disappointed with

their result donrsquot stress there is plenty of time to improve before the second set of exams and for those

who did well keep up the incredible work efforts and keep striving for success Congratulations to

everyone

To all the musosrsquo your camp is just around the corner Enjoy your time in the beautiful Swan Valley

canrsquot wait to hear about it on your return Reminder to those interested in attending the Winter Concert

will be held on the Sunday and the camp in the Swan Valley

As we are sure you are all aware this week is Zero2hero week The whole week is to be filled with

communal activities that are sure to spread the positive vibes At the end of the week for our whole

school assembly we have some very special guests attending and trust us you do not want miss them

Finally the night we have all been waiting for - the Year 11 Formal As it is approaching much quicker

than we all thought We suggest you start looking for an outfit now donrsquot forget to dress to impress

Save the date 16 August - more information will be released soon

In the meantime from your Year 11 councillors we hope you enjoy your well-earned two week break

that is rapidly approaching Enjoy yourself stay safe and we will see you again after the break

Helping your child build healthy relationships Every day we interact with many other people You may not like them or agree with them but everyone deserves respect

Parents play an important role in assisting children and young people to build self-respect This leads to the development

of the values and skills needed to express respect to others There may be some variation in what represents respectful

behaviors across different cultures However in any cultural context respect is about behaviors that convey valuing and

caring about another person Helping your child develop the following skills will help them to form healthy respectful

relationships with peers and adults

Understanding and empathy Encourage your child to think about how another person may feel about something

Empathic listening Teach them to listen and show they understand another personrsquos point of view

Anger Management In times of conflict encourage them to think first before speaking stay calm and avoid hurtful

reactions

Conflict resolution Disagreements are normal in any relationship Itrsquos helpful to teach your child that to work

through a problem by understanding another personrsquos point of view To achieve a compromise or agreement is

better than winning an argument that leaves the other person feeling bullied hurt or embarrassed

Problem-solving and decision making skills Rather than you offering solutions for your childrsquos problems hold back

and support your child to generate a few possible solutions themselves Encourage them to think about the impact

of each option on themselves and others before deciding on their action

Honesty In a relationship where there is trust and acceptance there should be no reason to lie and honesty should

be encouraged

Assertiveness Help your child to learn how to stand up for themselves or to speak up about their values or needs in

a way that is non-confrontational and still respects others

Simone Priestley

On Tuesday 29 May 31 members of the Greenwood College

Vocal Ensemble went on a short excursion to Edith Cowan

University in Mount Lawley and to the Western Australian

Academy of Performing Arts Every Tuesday during the university

semester the Classical Department puts on a lunchtime concert

at 110pm Sometimes there are visiting artists Sometimes

there are local ones Sometimes there are the university

students themselves On this occasion we were treated to a

spectacular performance by Eneksis Vocal Ensemble led by Michael McCarthy one of Australias

leading specialists in Aural training in particular through the methods laid down by Zoltan Kodaly The

ensemble performed a dazzling array of pieces by Taverner Rheinberger Part Busto Biebl and others

in 4 5 6 8 and 10 part harmony all to a very high standard and all with the utmost dedication to

precision detail and expressive effect At the close of the concert more than one student commented

that some of the harmonies had given them goosebumps They were both surprised and inspired by this

particular effect We often hear about how music and sound can influence the human body but we

d o n t a l w a y s f i n d

ourselves quite so aware

of this experience After a

short afternoon tea the

students then made their

way back to the College in

time for their usual

rehearsal after school Im

so very pleased that the

students enjoyed this

special performance and

look forward to similar

outings in the future

On Friday 15 June the students and staff of the Music Department held it annual Term 2 lunchtime

Amphitheatre Rock Band Concert The Year 11 and Year 12 students of the Certificate II class were

tasked with setting up the ever increasing array of equipment required for these kinds of events Itrsquos

difficult to get these items placed on stage in time to perform let alone connected up working and

sounding as they should It requires considerable preparation and practice on the part of the students

as well as a willingness to sacrifice ones own lunch break for

the entertainment of the school There are always issues to

overcome in order to put this event on The students did an

excellent job under the circumstances First up were the Year

10-12 Senior Rock Band The Nameless with Hysteria Our

second item was presented by the Year 9-10 Intermediate

Rock Band Legacy with Rain Our third and fourth items

were presented by the Year 7-9 Junior Rock Bands Fire amp Ice

and Capacity performing Wild Thing and Better than

Revenge respectively The event serves to entertain the

students of the College as well as create a date that the

ensembles must be prepared for before then embarking on

the annual Primary School Music Tour The lunchtime concert

was very well attended with few seats spare around the

Amphitheatre My thanks to Mr Swain and Mrs Pattison the

ensembles directors for their hard work dedication and

willingness to go above and beyond to prepare our students

for these performances I am very proud of our students work

and look forward to showcasing their talents at Goollelal and

Halidon Primary School on Friday 22 June

With the World Cup in full swing it would be fair to say that Soccer has never been so popular at

Greenwood College The 2018 season saw the school field 3 Teams Senior Boys u18rsquos that are led by

Dale Gannaway with the intermediate boys (u16) and Senior Girls (u18) being coached by yours truly

The biggest group we had by far was the intermediate boys We had too many for one team but not quite

enough for two which proves that there is a huge demand for the sport here Senior Girls had a mix of

junior and more experienced players while the Senior Boys has mostly experienced players with some

debutants stepping up from last years intermediate boys team

The Senior Girls had some brilliant moments in their season

Captained by Raquyah Hameed they showed some real promise in

their first game despite going down 3-0 to Duncraig SHS Their

second game against Carine SHS was far better with more

possession and shots on goal but neither team was able to break

the deadlock and the girls walked away with their first points with 0

-0 draw A forfeit from Mater Dei gave the girls their first win but

their best game was their last game against Quinns Baptist College

The Girls lost 4-1 to them last year however this time around lead

the game 1-0 right into the second half when a mixture of fatigue

as well as a heavy dose rain saw Quinns score 2 quick goals to win the match 2-1 Our standout players

throughout the season were Chelsea Downes Asha Malde and Jacinta and Isobel Boyce

The Intermediate Boys had another tough season however the

score lines were remarkably smaller than last season A crunching

7-1 loss to Ashdale followed by a narrow 2-1 loss to Shenton

showed the boys were improving Their last game against

Churchlands was very tight in the first half with multiple chances

on goal in the first half but somehow not finding the back of the

net The second half saw Churchlands run away with a 6-0 win

Honourable mentions go to Milad Safari Jigme Dorji and Atanas

Atanasav

The Senior Boys had a mixed season They started well with a resounding 3-0 win over St Stephens the

following week saw a narrow loss to Mater Dei despite the boys playing some brilliant soccer A forfeit

from Quinns gave them a 3-0 win on paper and they needed to win their recent clash with Balga SHS to

keep their finals hopes alive Sadly despite some valiant efforts from the likes of OT Mbafumoja Regis

Gatambiye Ahmed Omer and Aaron Deeks it wasnrsquot enough with Balga taking a 2-0 win There is one

more game left in the group stage which will be an away game on 25 June against Duncraig SHS

Despite our season earlier than we normally would like you can still enjoy the World Cup

The Year 9 Outdoor Education class set out on a fishing expedition to Rottnest island on Thursday

31 May The class spent weeks preparing for the expedition learning how to set up rigs tie knots

cast out and how to snag a big one The week leading up to Rottnest had high anticipation

throughout the class the question was ldquowho was going to get the biggest catchrdquo

As the morning arrived a dark and cold chill shivered through everyone ldquooh wait thatrsquos just the

weatherrdquo A storm had decided to hit the Perth coast in full force and provided not only challenging

fishing conditions but a crazy boat ride over The weather didnrsquot seem to dampen the morale of the

class although the boat ride would soon change this You know itrsquos a good start to a boat ride when

they hand you a sick bag as you boardhelliphellip

As we left Hillaryrsquos harbour there was laughter and jokes getting thrown around until the boat

stepped out into the ocean swell and the only thing that was getting thrown around were screams from

students and the odd little vomit Some thought this was the end With the skill of the Captain or just

luck of the draw we landed safe on the island With the crazy ride over there was a sigh of relief ldquoyayrdquo

fishing time

We had keen fishermen on our hands We delegated the fishing gear out and started our trek by foot

our destinationmdash the Army jetty The fish were about to get a shock

As we arrived it was still pouring with rain and down to 10 degrees but this didnrsquot stop any ldquooutdoor

eagersrdquo With the likes of AJ no shoes no jumper and just shorts he was running to the water to get

first cast and have the chance of bragging rights for the first catch Within minutes there wasnrsquot a ldquodryrdquo

seat in the house with all students out wetting a line

Moral was high although it was a slow start to the day The only thing getting reeled in was seaweed or a

cold BANG Harry Burt is on The rod has a big bend to it and it looks to be a big onehellip hold onhellip waithellip

what is that thing ldquoSir I caught someonersquos underwearrdquo Well at least we werenrsquot going home empty

handed

With the first catch being a pair of underwear things were starting to look south The class kept at it

battling the weather they started to hit the target The fish were biting and the race was on The fish

started to get pulled in and the smiles and bragging rights started to flow The rain still coming down

sideways in buckets While Mr Tippet Mrs Tkachenko and Mr Gillespie tackled the weather with the

students Mr Walczak kept cosy under the shelter with his knitted blanket and gloves With the fishing

coming to an end Jayden was crowned Champion Angler with a total count of 12 fish Despite the

protest from Harry with his imaginary 10ft snapper that magically got away

With the gear packed up it was time to start the hike back to the boat With the boat ride we had

coming to Rottnest I think the return boat ride was on everyonersquos thoughts With a small debrief of the

day and a bit of free time to go get some food we boarded the boat and set sail for Hillaryrsquos boat

harbour The ride home was smooth sailing as the wind was low and we had the swell on our side A

safe landing at the boat harbour had topped off the trip of on a good note and left everyone with plenty

of stories to tell

The 1st of June - day two of the Year 9s fishing expedition had commenced The sun was out spirits

were high and the sea was friendly to 50 of the class which managed to keep their breakfast in

In a lot of ways group oneday 1 and group twoday 2 were polar opposites The boat ride on the

second day was majestic compared to the ldquorollierdquo tides on day one Thunderstorms and heavy rain

one day - bright and sunny days on the next Day two students were blessed to say the least

Mr Bean kept those of who didnrsquot vomit entertained for the 40-45-minute trip with his timeless

humour Mr Gillespie tried working on his lesson plans but soon realised student numbers of sea

sickness was on the rise and other students were growing restless The seasick students were

quickly bundled upstairs to grab some fresh air with teachers to console them and their upset stomachs

Arriving at Rottnest the students were eager to replenish their recently empty stomachs putting Subway

and the local bakery into overdrive On a personal note the pies and pastries were an absolute dime

and are a MUST try After the students consumed the majority of Subwaysrsquo stock and took many selfies

with quokkas as physically possible we set out to acquire our sweet rides for the day

Mr Tippet refused Mr Gillespiersquos offer to take a tandem bike and was therefore designated the work

horse for the day and was given the trailer to cart around Mrs Tkachenko was the ever proficient and

gallant ldquopack leaderrdquo Mr Erwin the squad ldquomechanicmedicrdquo and Mr Gillespie was ldquochief motivatorall-

round utilityrdquo The students were responsible for their own equipment and had become giddy with

excitement once the sweet rides were obtained

We then set off to Salmon Bay to fish the sea dry There were ups and downs but there were more ups

then downshellip then we arrived Mr Erwinsrsquo skill as a bike technician came in handy multiple times on the

arduous journey while the students struggled to keep pace with the lightning fast Mrs Tkachenko Mr

Tippet took the fable of the tortoise and the hair very literally and kept a solid pace the entire way giving

his well-manicured legs a workout he would never forget

The word lsquoscenicrsquo comes to mind when reaching our destination with the lighthouse in the background

the sun beaming down the beautiful hilly terrain meeting the rocks and the tide gracefully touching the

sand with seaweed in massive clumps creating an interesting aroma Were we lucky to be fishing today

Now it was time for all the ground work done in class to rise to the occasion and begin fishing The girls

went off to a flying start and finished the day with a grand total of 37 fish Special mentions to Ella

Mason and Ashley Mathies who contributed ten fish between them and Marli Rabe who contributed with

a hefty four

Atanas Atanasoy caught the ldquoCATCH OF THE DAYrdquo - a 30cm Skippy which he took home for dinner

Sasha Babic and Rory Noonan had four each After the long glorious successful day we managed to

pack up without a hitch and ride back along the smooth road of Rottnest Except Mr Tippet (the work

horse) had to cart the supplies back with no help The students then tracked down the quokkas for more

selfies and finished their day with delicious pies and Subway before the setting sail back to the

motherland

Mr Bean managed to keep the extremely tired students entertained Their stomachs had settled we set

off once again having conquered Rottenest to our rear and dry land to our front In summary everyone

had a great day coming home wreaking of successful fishing

Helping your child build healthy relationships Every day we interact with many other people You may not like them or agree with them but everyone deserves respect

Parents play an important role in assisting children and young people to build self-respect This leads to the development

of the values and skills needed to express respect to others There may be some variation in what represents respectful

behaviors across different cultures However in any cultural context respect is about behaviors that convey valuing and

caring about another person Helping your child develop the following skills will help them to form healthy respectful

relationships with peers and adults

Understanding and empathy Encourage your child to think about how another person may feel about something

Empathic listening Teach them to listen and show they understand another personrsquos point of view

Anger Management In times of conflict encourage them to think first before speaking stay calm and avoid hurtful

reactions

Conflict resolution Disagreements are normal in any relationship Itrsquos helpful to teach your child that to work

through a problem by understanding another personrsquos point of view To achieve a compromise or agreement is

better than winning an argument that leaves the other person feeling bullied hurt or embarrassed

Problem-solving and decision making skills Rather than you offering solutions for your childrsquos problems hold back

and support your child to generate a few possible solutions themselves Encourage them to think about the impact

of each option on themselves and others before deciding on their action

Honesty In a relationship where there is trust and acceptance there should be no reason to lie and honesty should

be encouraged

Assertiveness Help your child to learn how to stand up for themselves or to speak up about their values or needs in

a way that is non-confrontational and still respects others

On Tuesday 29 May 31 members of the Greenwood College

Vocal Ensemble went on a short excursion to Edith Cowan

University in Mount Lawley and to the Western Australian

Academy of Performing Arts Every Tuesday during the university

semester the Classical Department puts on a lunchtime concert

at 110pm Sometimes there are visiting artists Sometimes

there are local ones Sometimes there are the university

students themselves On this occasion we were treated to a

spectacular performance by Eneksis Vocal Ensemble led by Michael McCarthy one of Australias

leading specialists in Aural training in particular through the methods laid down by Zoltan Kodaly The

ensemble performed a dazzling array of pieces by Taverner Rheinberger Part Busto Biebl and others

in 4 5 6 8 and 10 part harmony all to a very high standard and all with the utmost dedication to

precision detail and expressive effect At the close of the concert more than one student commented

that some of the harmonies had given them goosebumps They were both surprised and inspired by this

particular effect We often hear about how music and sound can influence the human body but we

d o n t a l w a y s f i n d

ourselves quite so aware

of this experience After a

short afternoon tea the

students then made their

way back to the College in

time for their usual

rehearsal after school Im

so very pleased that the

students enjoyed this

special performance and

look forward to similar

outings in the future

On Friday 15 June the students and staff of the Music Department held it annual Term 2 lunchtime

Amphitheatre Rock Band Concert The Year 11 and Year 12 students of the Certificate II class were

tasked with setting up the ever increasing array of equipment required for these kinds of events Itrsquos

difficult to get these items placed on stage in time to perform let alone connected up working and

sounding as they should It requires considerable preparation and practice on the part of the students

as well as a willingness to sacrifice ones own lunch break for

the entertainment of the school There are always issues to

overcome in order to put this event on The students did an

excellent job under the circumstances First up were the Year

10-12 Senior Rock Band The Nameless with Hysteria Our

second item was presented by the Year 9-10 Intermediate

Rock Band Legacy with Rain Our third and fourth items

were presented by the Year 7-9 Junior Rock Bands Fire amp Ice

and Capacity performing Wild Thing and Better than

Revenge respectively The event serves to entertain the

students of the College as well as create a date that the

ensembles must be prepared for before then embarking on

the annual Primary School Music Tour The lunchtime concert

was very well attended with few seats spare around the

Amphitheatre My thanks to Mr Swain and Mrs Pattison the

ensembles directors for their hard work dedication and

willingness to go above and beyond to prepare our students

for these performances I am very proud of our students work

and look forward to showcasing their talents at Goollelal and

Halidon Primary School on Friday 22 June

With the World Cup in full swing it would be fair to say that Soccer has never been so popular at

Greenwood College The 2018 season saw the school field 3 Teams Senior Boys u18rsquos that are led by

Dale Gannaway with the intermediate boys (u16) and Senior Girls (u18) being coached by yours truly

The biggest group we had by far was the intermediate boys We had too many for one team but not quite

enough for two which proves that there is a huge demand for the sport here Senior Girls had a mix of

junior and more experienced players while the Senior Boys has mostly experienced players with some

debutants stepping up from last years intermediate boys team

The Senior Girls had some brilliant moments in their season

Captained by Raquyah Hameed they showed some real promise in

their first game despite going down 3-0 to Duncraig SHS Their

second game against Carine SHS was far better with more

possession and shots on goal but neither team was able to break

the deadlock and the girls walked away with their first points with 0

-0 draw A forfeit from Mater Dei gave the girls their first win but

their best game was their last game against Quinns Baptist College

The Girls lost 4-1 to them last year however this time around lead

the game 1-0 right into the second half when a mixture of fatigue

as well as a heavy dose rain saw Quinns score 2 quick goals to win the match 2-1 Our standout players

throughout the season were Chelsea Downes Asha Malde and Jacinta and Isobel Boyce

The Intermediate Boys had another tough season however the

score lines were remarkably smaller than last season A crunching

7-1 loss to Ashdale followed by a narrow 2-1 loss to Shenton

showed the boys were improving Their last game against

Churchlands was very tight in the first half with multiple chances

on goal in the first half but somehow not finding the back of the

net The second half saw Churchlands run away with a 6-0 win

Honourable mentions go to Milad Safari Jigme Dorji and Atanas

Atanasav

The Senior Boys had a mixed season They started well with a resounding 3-0 win over St Stephens the

following week saw a narrow loss to Mater Dei despite the boys playing some brilliant soccer A forfeit

from Quinns gave them a 3-0 win on paper and they needed to win their recent clash with Balga SHS to

keep their finals hopes alive Sadly despite some valiant efforts from the likes of OT Mbafumoja Regis

Gatambiye Ahmed Omer and Aaron Deeks it wasnrsquot enough with Balga taking a 2-0 win There is one

more game left in the group stage which will be an away game on 25 June against Duncraig SHS

Despite our season earlier than we normally would like you can still enjoy the World Cup

The Year 9 Outdoor Education class set out on a fishing expedition to Rottnest island on Thursday

31 May The class spent weeks preparing for the expedition learning how to set up rigs tie knots

cast out and how to snag a big one The week leading up to Rottnest had high anticipation

throughout the class the question was ldquowho was going to get the biggest catchrdquo

As the morning arrived a dark and cold chill shivered through everyone ldquooh wait thatrsquos just the

weatherrdquo A storm had decided to hit the Perth coast in full force and provided not only challenging

fishing conditions but a crazy boat ride over The weather didnrsquot seem to dampen the morale of the

class although the boat ride would soon change this You know itrsquos a good start to a boat ride when

they hand you a sick bag as you boardhelliphellip

As we left Hillaryrsquos harbour there was laughter and jokes getting thrown around until the boat

stepped out into the ocean swell and the only thing that was getting thrown around were screams from

students and the odd little vomit Some thought this was the end With the skill of the Captain or just

luck of the draw we landed safe on the island With the crazy ride over there was a sigh of relief ldquoyayrdquo

fishing time

We had keen fishermen on our hands We delegated the fishing gear out and started our trek by foot

our destinationmdash the Army jetty The fish were about to get a shock

As we arrived it was still pouring with rain and down to 10 degrees but this didnrsquot stop any ldquooutdoor

eagersrdquo With the likes of AJ no shoes no jumper and just shorts he was running to the water to get

first cast and have the chance of bragging rights for the first catch Within minutes there wasnrsquot a ldquodryrdquo

seat in the house with all students out wetting a line

Moral was high although it was a slow start to the day The only thing getting reeled in was seaweed or a

cold BANG Harry Burt is on The rod has a big bend to it and it looks to be a big onehellip hold onhellip waithellip

what is that thing ldquoSir I caught someonersquos underwearrdquo Well at least we werenrsquot going home empty

handed

With the first catch being a pair of underwear things were starting to look south The class kept at it

battling the weather they started to hit the target The fish were biting and the race was on The fish

started to get pulled in and the smiles and bragging rights started to flow The rain still coming down

sideways in buckets While Mr Tippet Mrs Tkachenko and Mr Gillespie tackled the weather with the

students Mr Walczak kept cosy under the shelter with his knitted blanket and gloves With the fishing

coming to an end Jayden was crowned Champion Angler with a total count of 12 fish Despite the

protest from Harry with his imaginary 10ft snapper that magically got away

With the gear packed up it was time to start the hike back to the boat With the boat ride we had

coming to Rottnest I think the return boat ride was on everyonersquos thoughts With a small debrief of the

day and a bit of free time to go get some food we boarded the boat and set sail for Hillaryrsquos boat

harbour The ride home was smooth sailing as the wind was low and we had the swell on our side A

safe landing at the boat harbour had topped off the trip of on a good note and left everyone with plenty

of stories to tell

O U T D O O R E D ( P R A C T E A C H E R )

The 1st of June - day two of the Year 9s fishing expedition had commenced The sun was out spirits

were high and the sea was friendly to 50 of the class which managed to keep their breakfast in

In a lot of ways group oneday 1 and group twoday 2 were polar opposites The boat ride on the

second day was majestic compared to the ldquorollierdquo tides on day one Thunderstorms and heavy rain

one day - bright and sunny days on the next Day two students were blessed to say the least

Mr Bean kept those of who didnrsquot vomit entertained for the 40-45-minute trip with his timeless

humour Mr Gillespie tried working on his lesson plans but soon realised student numbers of sea

sickness was on the rise and other students were growing restless The seasick students were

quickly bundled upstairs to grab some fresh air with teachers to console them and their upset stomachs

Arriving at Rottnest the students were eager to replenish their recently empty stomachs putting Subway

and the local bakery into overdrive On a personal note the pies and pastries were an absolute dime

and are a MUST try After the students consumed the majority of Subwaysrsquo stock and took many selfies

with quokkas as physically possible we set out to acquire our sweet rides for the day

Mr Tippet refused Mr Gillespiersquos offer to take a tandem bike and was therefore designated the work

horse for the day and was given the trailer to cart around Mrs Tkachenko was the ever proficient and

gallant ldquopack leaderrdquo Mr Erwin the squad ldquomechanicmedicrdquo and Mr Gillespie was ldquochief motivatorall-

round utilityrdquo The students were responsible for their own equipment and had become giddy with

excitement once the sweet rides were obtained

We then set off to Salmon Bay to fish the sea dry There were ups and downs but there were more ups

then downshellip then we arrived Mr Erwinsrsquo skill as a bike technician came in handy multiple times on the

arduous journey while the students struggled to keep pace with the lightning fast Mrs Tkachenko Mr

Tippet took the fable of the tortoise and the hair very literally and kept a solid pace the entire way giving

his well-manicured legs a workout he would never forget

The word lsquoscenicrsquo comes to mind when reaching our destination with the lighthouse in the background

the sun beaming down the beautiful hilly terrain meeting the rocks and the tide gracefully touching the

sand with seaweed in massive clumps creating an interesting aroma Were we lucky to be fishing today

Now it was time for all the ground work done in class to rise to the occasion and begin fishing The girls

went off to a flying start and finished the day with a grand total of 37 fish Special mentions to Ella

Mason and Ashley Mathies who contributed ten fish between them and Marli Rabe who contributed with

a hefty four

Atanas Atanasoy caught the ldquoCATCH OF THE DAYrdquo - a 30cm Skippy which he took home for dinner

Sasha Babic and Rory Noonan had four each After the long glorious successful day we managed to

pack up without a hitch and ride back along the smooth road of Rottnest Except Mr Tippet (the work

horse) had to cart the supplies back with no help The students then tracked down the quokkas for more

selfies and finished their day with delicious pies and Subway before the setting sail back to the

motherland

Mr Bean managed to keep the extremely tired students entertained Their stomachs had settled we set

off once again having conquered Rottenest to our rear and dry land to our front In summary everyone

On Tuesday 29 May 31 members of the Greenwood College

Vocal Ensemble went on a short excursion to Edith Cowan

University in Mount Lawley and to the Western Australian

Academy of Performing Arts Every Tuesday during the university

semester the Classical Department puts on a lunchtime concert

at 110pm Sometimes there are visiting artists Sometimes

there are local ones Sometimes there are the university

students themselves On this occasion we were treated to a

spectacular performance by Eneksis Vocal Ensemble led by Michael McCarthy one of Australias

leading specialists in Aural training in particular through the methods laid down by Zoltan Kodaly The

ensemble performed a dazzling array of pieces by Taverner Rheinberger Part Busto Biebl and others

in 4 5 6 8 and 10 part harmony all to a very high standard and all with the utmost dedication to

precision detail and expressive effect At the close of the concert more than one student commented

that some of the harmonies had given them goosebumps They were both surprised and inspired by this

particular effect We often hear about how music and sound can influence the human body but we

d o n t a l w a y s f i n d

ourselves quite so aware

of this experience After a

short afternoon tea the

students then made their

way back to the College in

time for their usual

rehearsal after school Im

so very pleased that the

students enjoyed this

special performance and

look forward to similar

outings in the future

On Friday 15 June the students and staff of the Music Department held it annual Term 2 lunchtime

Amphitheatre Rock Band Concert The Year 11 and Year 12 students of the Certificate II class were

tasked with setting up the ever increasing array of equipment required for these kinds of events Itrsquos

difficult to get these items placed on stage in time to perform let alone connected up working and

sounding as they should It requires considerable preparation and practice on the part of the students

as well as a willingness to sacrifice ones own lunch break for

the entertainment of the school There are always issues to

overcome in order to put this event on The students did an

excellent job under the circumstances First up were the Year

10-12 Senior Rock Band The Nameless with Hysteria Our

second item was presented by the Year 9-10 Intermediate

Rock Band Legacy with Rain Our third and fourth items

were presented by the Year 7-9 Junior Rock Bands Fire amp Ice

and Capacity performing Wild Thing and Better than

Revenge respectively The event serves to entertain the

students of the College as well as create a date that the

ensembles must be prepared for before then embarking on

the annual Primary School Music Tour The lunchtime concert

was very well attended with few seats spare around the

Amphitheatre My thanks to Mr Swain and Mrs Pattison the

ensembles directors for their hard work dedication and

willingness to go above and beyond to prepare our students

for these performances I am very proud of our students work

and look forward to showcasing their talents at Goollelal and

Halidon Primary School on Friday 22 June

The article is published in Photoreview magazine of June 2018 see the

relative pages attached

The winning photos are masterful images of two adventurous Latin

America destinations Laguna Colorada in Bolivia and Bloody Red Lake

in the mountains of Chile The waters of these two lagoons have intense

orange hue which is contrasting amazingly with the landscape

The same student has become recently a winner of drone

With the World Cup in full swing it would be fair to say that Soccer has never been so popular at

Greenwood College The 2018 season saw the school field 3 Teams Senior Boys u18rsquos that are led by

Dale Gannaway with the intermediate boys (u16) and Senior Girls (u18) being coached by yours truly

The biggest group we had by far was the intermediate boys We had too many for one team but not quite

enough for two which proves that there is a huge demand for the sport here Senior Girls had a mix of

junior and more experienced players while the Senior Boys has mostly experienced players with some

debutants stepping up from last years intermediate boys team

The Senior Girls had some brilliant moments in their season

Captained by Raquyah Hameed they showed some real promise in

their first game despite going down 3-0 to Duncraig SHS Their

second game against Carine SHS was far better with more

possession and shots on goal but neither team was able to break

the deadlock and the girls walked away with their first points with 0

-0 draw A forfeit from Mater Dei gave the girls their first win but

their best game was their last game against Quinns Baptist College

The Girls lost 4-1 to them last year however this time around lead

the game 1-0 right into the second half when a mixture of fatigue

as well as a heavy dose rain saw Quinns score 2 quick goals to win the match 2-1 Our standout players

throughout the season were Chelsea Downes Asha Malde and Jacinta and Isobel Boyce

The Intermediate Boys had another tough season however the

score lines were remarkably smaller than last season A crunching

7-1 loss to Ashdale followed by a narrow 2-1 loss to Shenton

showed the boys were improving Their last game against

Churchlands was very tight in the first half with multiple chances

on goal in the first half but somehow not finding the back of the

net The second half saw Churchlands run away with a 6-0 win

Honourable mentions go to Milad Safari Jigme Dorji and Atanas

Atanasav

The Senior Boys had a mixed season They started well with a resounding 3-0 win over St Stephens the

following week saw a narrow loss to Mater Dei despite the boys playing some brilliant soccer A forfeit

from Quinns gave them a 3-0 win on paper and they needed to win their recent clash with Balga SHS to

keep their finals hopes alive Sadly despite some valiant efforts from the likes of OT Mbafumoja Regis

Gatambiye Ahmed Omer and Aaron Deeks it wasnrsquot enough with Balga taking a 2-0 win There is one

more game left in the group stage which will be an away game on 25 June against Duncraig SHS

Despite our season earlier than we normally would like you can still enjoy the World Cup

The Year 9 Outdoor Education class set out on a fishing expedition to Rottnest island on Thursday

31 May The class spent weeks preparing for the expedition learning how to set up rigs tie knots

cast out and how to snag a big one The week leading up to Rottnest had high anticipation

throughout the class the question was ldquowho was going to get the biggest catchrdquo

As the morning arrived a dark and cold chill shivered through everyone ldquooh wait thatrsquos just the

weatherrdquo A storm had decided to hit the Perth coast in full force and provided not only challenging

fishing conditions but a crazy boat ride over The weather didnrsquot seem to dampen the morale of the

class although the boat ride would soon change this You know itrsquos a good start to a boat ride when

they hand you a sick bag as you boardhelliphellip

As we left Hillaryrsquos harbour there was laughter and jokes getting thrown around until the boat

stepped out into the ocean swell and the only thing that was getting thrown around were screams from

students and the odd little vomit Some thought this was the end With the skill of the Captain or just

luck of the draw we landed safe on the island With the crazy ride over there was a sigh of relief ldquoyayrdquo

fishing time

We had keen fishermen on our hands We delegated the fishing gear out and started our trek by foot

our destinationmdash the Army jetty The fish were about to get a shock

As we arrived it was still pouring with rain and down to 10 degrees but this didnrsquot stop any ldquooutdoor

eagersrdquo With the likes of AJ no shoes no jumper and just shorts he was running to the water to get

first cast and have the chance of bragging rights for the first catch Within minutes there wasnrsquot a ldquodryrdquo

seat in the house with all students out wetting a line

Moral was high although it was a slow start to the day The only thing getting reeled in was seaweed or a

cold BANG Harry Burt is on The rod has a big bend to it and it looks to be a big onehellip hold onhellip waithellip

what is that thing ldquoSir I caught someonersquos underwearrdquo Well at least we werenrsquot going home empty

handed

With the first catch being a pair of underwear things were starting to look south The class kept at it

battling the weather they started to hit the target The fish were biting and the race was on The fish

started to get pulled in and the smiles and bragging rights started to flow The rain still coming down

sideways in buckets While Mr Tippet Mrs Tkachenko and Mr Gillespie tackled the weather with the

students Mr Walczak kept cosy under the shelter with his knitted blanket and gloves With the fishing

coming to an end Jayden was crowned Champion Angler with a total count of 12 fish Despite the

protest from Harry with his imaginary 10ft snapper that magically got away

With the gear packed up it was time to start the hike back to the boat With the boat ride we had

coming to Rottnest I think the return boat ride was on everyonersquos thoughts With a small debrief of the

day and a bit of free time to go get some food we boarded the boat and set sail for Hillaryrsquos boat

harbour The ride home was smooth sailing as the wind was low and we had the swell on our side A

safe landing at the boat harbour had topped off the trip of on a good note and left everyone with plenty

of stories to tell

The 1st of June - day two of the Year 9s fishing expedition had commenced The sun was out spirits

were high and the sea was friendly to 50 of the class which managed to keep their breakfast in

In a lot of ways group oneday 1 and group twoday 2 were polar opposites The boat ride on the

second day was majestic compared to the ldquorollierdquo tides on day one Thunderstorms and heavy rain

one day - bright and sunny days on the next Day two students were blessed to say the least

Mr Bean kept those of who didnrsquot vomit entertained for the 40-45-minute trip with his timeless

humour Mr Gillespie tried working on his lesson plans but soon realised student numbers of sea

sickness was on the rise and other students were growing restless The seasick students were

quickly bundled upstairs to grab some fresh air with teachers to console them and their upset stomachs

Arriving at Rottnest the students were eager to replenish their recently empty stomachs putting Subway

and the local bakery into overdrive On a personal note the pies and pastries were an absolute dime

and are a MUST try After the students consumed the majority of Subwaysrsquo stock and took many selfies

with quokkas as physically possible we set out to acquire our sweet rides for the day

Mr Tippet refused Mr Gillespiersquos offer to take a tandem bike and was therefore designated the work

horse for the day and was given the trailer to cart around Mrs Tkachenko was the ever proficient and

gallant ldquopack leaderrdquo Mr Erwin the squad ldquomechanicmedicrdquo and Mr Gillespie was ldquochief motivatorall-

round utilityrdquo The students were responsible for their own equipment and had become giddy with

excitement once the sweet rides were obtained

We then set off to Salmon Bay to fish the sea dry There were ups and downs but there were more ups

then downshellip then we arrived Mr Erwinsrsquo skill as a bike technician came in handy multiple times on the

arduous journey while the students struggled to keep pace with the lightning fast Mrs Tkachenko Mr

Tippet took the fable of the tortoise and the hair very literally and kept a solid pace the entire way giving

his well-manicured legs a workout he would never forget

The word lsquoscenicrsquo comes to mind when reaching our destination with the lighthouse in the background

the sun beaming down the beautiful hilly terrain meeting the rocks and the tide gracefully touching the

sand with seaweed in massive clumps creating an interesting aroma Were we lucky to be fishing today

Now it was time for all the ground work done in class to rise to the occasion and begin fishing The girls

went off to a flying start and finished the day with a grand total of 37 fish Special mentions to Ella

Mason and Ashley Mathies who contributed ten fish between them and Marli Rabe who contributed with

a hefty four

Atanas Atanasoy caught the ldquoCATCH OF THE DAYrdquo - a 30cm Skippy which he took home for dinner

Sasha Babic and Rory Noonan had four each After the long glorious successful day we managed to

pack up without a hitch and ride back along the smooth road of Rottnest Except Mr Tippet (the work

horse) had to cart the supplies back with no help The students then tracked down the quokkas for more

selfies and finished their day with delicious pies and Subway before the setting sail back to the

motherland

Mr Bean managed to keep the extremely tired students entertained Their stomachs had settled we set

off once again having conquered Rottenest to our rear and dry land to our front In summary everyone

had a great day coming home wreaking of successful fishing

With the World Cup in full swing it would be fair to say that Soccer has never been so popular at

Greenwood College The 2018 season saw the school field 3 Teams Senior Boys u18rsquos that are led by

Dale Gannaway with the intermediate boys (u16) and Senior Girls (u18) being coached by yours truly

The biggest group we had by far was the intermediate boys We had too many for one team but not quite

enough for two which proves that there is a huge demand for the sport here Senior Girls had a mix of

junior and more experienced players while the Senior Boys has mostly experienced players with some

debutants stepping up from last years intermediate boys team

The Senior Girls had some brilliant moments in their season

Captained by Raquyah Hameed they showed some real promise in

their first game despite going down 3-0 to Duncraig SHS Their

second game against Carine SHS was far better with more

possession and shots on goal but neither team was able to break

the deadlock and the girls walked away with their first points with 0

-0 draw A forfeit from Mater Dei gave the girls their first win but

their best game was their last game against Quinns Baptist College

The Girls lost 4-1 to them last year however this time around lead

the game 1-0 right into the second half when a mixture of fatigue

as well as a heavy dose rain saw Quinns score 2 quick goals to win the match 2-1 Our standout players

throughout the season were Chelsea Downes Asha Malde and Jacinta and Isobel Boyce

The Intermediate Boys had another tough season however the

score lines were remarkably smaller than last season A crunching

7-1 loss to Ashdale followed by a narrow 2-1 loss to Shenton

showed the boys were improving Their last game against

Churchlands was very tight in the first half with multiple chances

on goal in the first half but somehow not finding the back of the

net The second half saw Churchlands run away with a 6-0 win

Honourable mentions go to Milad Safari Jigme Dorji and Atanas

Atanasav

The Senior Boys had a mixed season They started well with a resounding 3-0 win over St Stephens the

following week saw a narrow loss to Mater Dei despite the boys playing some brilliant soccer A forfeit

from Quinns gave them a 3-0 win on paper and they needed to win their recent clash with Balga SHS to

keep their finals hopes alive Sadly despite some valiant efforts from the likes of OT Mbafumoja Regis

Gatambiye Ahmed Omer and Aaron Deeks it wasnrsquot enough with Balga taking a 2-0 win There is one

more game left in the group stage which will be an away game on 25 June against Duncraig SHS

Despite our season earlier than we normally would like you can still enjoy the World Cup

The Year 9 Outdoor Education class set out on a fishing expedition to Rottnest island on Thursday

31 May The class spent weeks preparing for the expedition learning how to set up rigs tie knots

cast out and how to snag a big one The week leading up to Rottnest had high anticipation

throughout the class the question was ldquowho was going to get the biggest catchrdquo

As the morning arrived a dark and cold chill shivered through everyone ldquooh wait thatrsquos just the

weatherrdquo A storm had decided to hit the Perth coast in full force and provided not only challenging

fishing conditions but a crazy boat ride over The weather didnrsquot seem to dampen the morale of the

class although the boat ride would soon change this You know itrsquos a good start to a boat ride when

they hand you a sick bag as you boardhelliphellip

As we left Hillaryrsquos harbour there was laughter and jokes getting thrown around until the boat

stepped out into the ocean swell and the only thing that was getting thrown around were screams from

students and the odd little vomit Some thought this was the end With the skill of the Captain or just

luck of the draw we landed safe on the island With the crazy ride over there was a sigh of relief ldquoyayrdquo

fishing time

We had keen fishermen on our hands We delegated the fishing gear out and started our trek by foot

our destinationmdash the Army jetty The fish were about to get a shock

As we arrived it was still pouring with rain and down to 10 degrees but this didnrsquot stop any ldquooutdoor

eagersrdquo With the likes of AJ no shoes no jumper and just shorts he was running to the water to get

first cast and have the chance of bragging rights for the first catch Within minutes there wasnrsquot a ldquodryrdquo

seat in the house with all students out wetting a line

Moral was high although it was a slow start to the day The only thing getting reeled in was seaweed or a

cold BANG Harry Burt is on The rod has a big bend to it and it looks to be a big onehellip hold onhellip waithellip

what is that thing ldquoSir I caught someonersquos underwearrdquo Well at least we werenrsquot going home empty

handed

With the first catch being a pair of underwear things were starting to look south The class kept at it

battling the weather they started to hit the target The fish were biting and the race was on The fish

started to get pulled in and the smiles and bragging rights started to flow The rain still coming down

sideways in buckets While Mr Tippet Mrs Tkachenko and Mr Gillespie tackled the weather with the

students Mr Walczak kept cosy under the shelter with his knitted blanket and gloves With the fishing

coming to an end Jayden was crowned Champion Angler with a total count of 12 fish Despite the

protest from Harry with his imaginary 10ft snapper that magically got away

With the gear packed up it was time to start the hike back to the boat With the boat ride we had

coming to Rottnest I think the return boat ride was on everyonersquos thoughts With a small debrief of the

day and a bit of free time to go get some food we boarded the boat and set sail for Hillaryrsquos boat

harbour The ride home was smooth sailing as the wind was low and we had the swell on our side A

safe landing at the boat harbour had topped off the trip of on a good note and left everyone with plenty

of stories to tell

The 1st of June - day two of the Year 9s fishing expedition had commenced The sun was out spirits

were high and the sea was friendly to 50 of the class which managed to keep their breakfast in

In a lot of ways group oneday 1 and group twoday 2 were polar opposites The boat ride on the

second day was majestic compared to the ldquorollierdquo tides on day one Thunderstorms and heavy rain

one day - bright and sunny days on the next Day two students were blessed to say the least

Mr Bean kept those of who didnrsquot vomit entertained for the 40-45-minute trip with his timeless

humour Mr Gillespie tried working on his lesson plans but soon realised student numbers of sea

sickness was on the rise and other students were growing restless The seasick students were

quickly bundled upstairs to grab some fresh air with teachers to console them and their upset stomachs

Arriving at Rottnest the students were eager to replenish their recently empty stomachs putting Subway

and the local bakery into overdrive On a personal note the pies and pastries were an absolute dime

and are a MUST try After the students consumed the majority of Subwaysrsquo stock and took many selfies

with quokkas as physically possible we set out to acquire our sweet rides for the day

Mr Tippet refused Mr Gillespiersquos offer to take a tandem bike and was therefore designated the work

horse for the day and was given the trailer to cart around Mrs Tkachenko was the ever proficient and

gallant ldquopack leaderrdquo Mr Erwin the squad ldquomechanicmedicrdquo and Mr Gillespie was ldquochief motivatorall-

round utilityrdquo The students were responsible for their own equipment and had become giddy with

excitement once the sweet rides were obtained

We then set off to Salmon Bay to fish the sea dry There were ups and downs but there were more ups

then downshellip then we arrived Mr Erwinsrsquo skill as a bike technician came in handy multiple times on the

arduous journey while the students struggled to keep pace with the lightning fast Mrs Tkachenko Mr

Tippet took the fable of the tortoise and the hair very literally and kept a solid pace the entire way giving

his well-manicured legs a workout he would never forget

The word lsquoscenicrsquo comes to mind when reaching our destination with the lighthouse in the background

the sun beaming down the beautiful hilly terrain meeting the rocks and the tide gracefully touching the

sand with seaweed in massive clumps creating an interesting aroma Were we lucky to be fishing today

Now it was time for all the ground work done in class to rise to the occasion and begin fishing The girls

went off to a flying start and finished the day with a grand total of 37 fish Special mentions to Ella

Mason and Ashley Mathies who contributed ten fish between them and Marli Rabe who contributed with

a hefty four

Atanas Atanasoy caught the ldquoCATCH OF THE DAYrdquo - a 30cm Skippy which he took home for dinner

Sasha Babic and Rory Noonan had four each After the long glorious successful day we managed to

pack up without a hitch and ride back along the smooth road of Rottnest Except Mr Tippet (the work

horse) had to cart the supplies back with no help The students then tracked down the quokkas for more

selfies and finished their day with delicious pies and Subway before the setting sail back to the

motherland

Mr Bean managed to keep the extremely tired students entertained Their stomachs had settled we set

off once again having conquered Rottenest to our rear and dry land to our front In summary everyone

had a great day coming home wreaking of successful fishing

With the World Cup in full swing it would be fair to say that Soccer has never been so popular at

Greenwood College The 2018 season saw the school field 3 Teams Senior Boys u18rsquos that are led by

Dale Gannaway with the intermediate boys (u16) and Senior Girls (u18) being coached by yours truly

The biggest group we had by far was the intermediate boys We had too many for one team but not quite

enough for two which proves that there is a huge demand for the sport here Senior Girls had a mix of

junior and more experienced players while the Senior Boys has mostly experienced players with some

debutants stepping up from last years intermediate boys team

The Senior Girls had some brilliant moments in their season

Captained by Raquyah Hameed they showed some real promise in

their first game despite going down 3-0 to Duncraig SHS Their

second game against Carine SHS was far better with more

possession and shots on goal but neither team was able to break

the deadlock and the girls walked away with their first points with 0

-0 draw A forfeit from Mater Dei gave the girls their first win but

their best game was their last game against Quinns Baptist College

The Girls lost 4-1 to them last year however this time around lead

the game 1-0 right into the second half when a mixture of fatigue

as well as a heavy dose rain saw Quinns score 2 quick goals to win the match 2-1 Our standout players

throughout the season were Chelsea Downes Asha Malde and Jacinta and Isobel Boyce

The Intermediate Boys had another tough season however the

score lines were remarkably smaller than last season A crunching

7-1 loss to Ashdale followed by a narrow 2-1 loss to Shenton

showed the boys were improving Their last game against

Churchlands was very tight in the first half with multiple chances

on goal in the first half but somehow not finding the back of the

net The second half saw Churchlands run away with a 6-0 win

Honourable mentions go to Milad Safari Jigme Dorji and Atanas

Atanasav

The Senior Boys had a mixed season They started well with a resounding 3-0 win over St Stephens the

following week saw a narrow loss to Mater Dei despite the boys playing some brilliant soccer A forfeit

from Quinns gave them a 3-0 win on paper and they needed to win their recent clash with Balga SHS to

keep their finals hopes alive Sadly despite some valiant efforts from the likes of OT Mbafumoja Regis

Gatambiye Ahmed Omer and Aaron Deeks it wasnrsquot enough with Balga taking a 2-0 win There is one

more game left in the group stage which will be an away game on 25 June against Duncraig SHS

Despite our season earlier than we normally would like you can still enjoy the World Cup

The Year 9 Outdoor Education class set out on a fishing expedition to Rottnest island on Thursday

31 May The class spent weeks preparing for the expedition learning how to set up rigs tie knots

cast out and how to snag a big one The week leading up to Rottnest had high anticipation

throughout the class the question was ldquowho was going to get the biggest catchrdquo

As the morning arrived a dark and cold chill shivered through everyone ldquooh wait thatrsquos just the

weatherrdquo A storm had decided to hit the Perth coast in full force and provided not only challenging

fishing conditions but a crazy boat ride over The weather didnrsquot seem to dampen the morale of the

class although the boat ride would soon change this You know itrsquos a good start to a boat ride when

they hand you a sick bag as you boardhelliphellip

As we left Hillaryrsquos harbour there was laughter and jokes getting thrown around until the boat

stepped out into the ocean swell and the only thing that was getting thrown around were screams from

students and the odd little vomit Some thought this was the end With the skill of the Captain or just

luck of the draw we landed safe on the island With the crazy ride over there was a sigh of relief ldquoyayrdquo

fishing time

We had keen fishermen on our hands We delegated the fishing gear out and started our trek by foot

our destinationmdash the Army jetty The fish were about to get a shock

As we arrived it was still pouring with rain and down to 10 degrees but this didnrsquot stop any ldquooutdoor

eagersrdquo With the likes of AJ no shoes no jumper and just shorts he was running to the water to get

first cast and have the chance of bragging rights for the first catch Within minutes there wasnrsquot a ldquodryrdquo

seat in the house with all students out wetting a line

Moral was high although it was a slow start to the day The only thing getting reeled in was seaweed or a

cold BANG Harry Burt is on The rod has a big bend to it and it looks to be a big onehellip hold onhellip waithellip

what is that thing ldquoSir I caught someonersquos underwearrdquo Well at least we werenrsquot going home empty

handed

With the first catch being a pair of underwear things were starting to look south The class kept at it

battling the weather they started to hit the target The fish were biting and the race was on The fish

started to get pulled in and the smiles and bragging rights started to flow The rain still coming down

sideways in buckets While Mr Tippet Mrs Tkachenko and Mr Gillespie tackled the weather with the

students Mr Walczak kept cosy under the shelter with his knitted blanket and gloves With the fishing

coming to an end Jayden was crowned Champion Angler with a total count of 12 fish Despite the

protest from Harry with his imaginary 10ft snapper that magically got away

With the gear packed up it was time to start the hike back to the boat With the boat ride we had

coming to Rottnest I think the return boat ride was on everyonersquos thoughts With a small debrief of the

day and a bit of free time to go get some food we boarded the boat and set sail for Hillaryrsquos boat

harbour The ride home was smooth sailing as the wind was low and we had the swell on our side A

safe landing at the boat harbour had topped off the trip of on a good note and left everyone with plenty

of stories to tell

O U T D O O R E D ( P R A C T E A C H E R )

The 1st of June - day two of the Year 9s fishing expedition had commenced The sun was out spirits

were high and the sea was friendly to 50 of the class which managed to keep their breakfast in

In a lot of ways group oneday 1 and group twoday 2 were polar opposites The boat ride on the

second day was majestic compared to the ldquorollierdquo tides on day one Thunderstorms and heavy rain

one day - bright and sunny days on the next Day two students were blessed to say the least

Mr Bean kept those of who didnrsquot vomit entertained for the 40-45-minute trip with his timeless

humour Mr Gillespie tried working on his lesson plans but soon realised student numbers of sea

sickness was on the rise and other students were growing restless The seasick students were

quickly bundled upstairs to grab some fresh air with teachers to console them and their upset stomachs

Arriving at Rottnest the students were eager to replenish their recently empty stomachs putting Subway

and the local bakery into overdrive On a personal note the pies and pastries were an absolute dime

and are a MUST try After the students consumed the majority of Subwaysrsquo stock and took many selfies

with quokkas as physically possible we set out to acquire our sweet rides for the day

Mr Tippet refused Mr Gillespiersquos offer to take a tandem bike and was therefore designated the work

horse for the day and was given the trailer to cart around Mrs Tkachenko was the ever proficient and

gallant ldquopack leaderrdquo Mr Erwin the squad ldquomechanicmedicrdquo and Mr Gillespie was ldquochief motivatorall-

round utilityrdquo The students were responsible for their own equipment and had become giddy with

excitement once the sweet rides were obtained

We then set off to Salmon Bay to fish the sea dry There were ups and downs but there were more ups

then downshellip then we arrived Mr Erwinsrsquo skill as a bike technician came in handy multiple times on the

arduous journey while the students struggled to keep pace with the lightning fast Mrs Tkachenko Mr

Tippet took the fable of the tortoise and the hair very literally and kept a solid pace the entire way giving

his well-manicured legs a workout he would never forget

The word lsquoscenicrsquo comes to mind when reaching our destination with the lighthouse in the background

the sun beaming down the beautiful hilly terrain meeting the rocks and the tide gracefully touching the

sand with seaweed in massive clumps creating an interesting aroma Were we lucky to be fishing today

Now it was time for all the ground work done in class to rise to the occasion and begin fishing The girls

went off to a flying start and finished the day with a grand total of 37 fish Special mentions to Ella

Mason and Ashley Mathies who contributed ten fish between them and Marli Rabe who contributed with

a hefty four

Atanas Atanasoy caught the ldquoCATCH OF THE DAYrdquo - a 30cm Skippy which he took home for dinner

Sasha Babic and Rory Noonan had four each After the long glorious successful day we managed to

pack up without a hitch and ride back along the smooth road of Rottnest Except Mr Tippet (the work

horse) had to cart the supplies back with no help The students then tracked down the quokkas for more

selfies and finished their day with delicious pies and Subway before the setting sail back to the

CONGRATULATIONS to our Greenwood College Year 12 student NICHOLAS FANTINI who has won a photo

competition of an important Australian magazine Photoreview

(wwwphotoreviewcomau)

The article is published in Photoreview magazine of June 2018 see the

relative pages attached

The winning photos are masterful images of two adventurous Latin

America destinations Laguna Colorada in Bolivia and Bloody Red Lake

in the mountains of Chile The waters of these two lagoons have intense

orange hue which is contrasting amazingly with the landscape

The same student has become recently a winner of drone

photography in New Drones of Australia and took a 4th

place in Capture Nature Photo Competition in Joondalup

Greenwood College produces so many amazing

photographershellip

With the World Cup in full swing it would be fair to say that Soccer has never been so popular at

Greenwood College The 2018 season saw the school field 3 Teams Senior Boys u18rsquos that are led by

Dale Gannaway with the intermediate boys (u16) and Senior Girls (u18) being coached by yours truly

The biggest group we had by far was the intermediate boys We had too many for one team but not quite

enough for two which proves that there is a huge demand for the sport here Senior Girls had a mix of

junior and more experienced players while the Senior Boys has mostly experienced players with some

debutants stepping up from last years intermediate boys team

The Senior Girls had some brilliant moments in their season

Captained by Raquyah Hameed they showed some real promise in

their first game despite going down 3-0 to Duncraig SHS Their

second game against Carine SHS was far better with more

possession and shots on goal but neither team was able to break

the deadlock and the girls walked away with their first points with 0

-0 draw A forfeit from Mater Dei gave the girls their first win but

their best game was their last game against Quinns Baptist College

The Girls lost 4-1 to them last year however this time around lead

the game 1-0 right into the second half when a mixture of fatigue

as well as a heavy dose rain saw Quinns score 2 quick goals to win the match 2-1 Our standout players

throughout the season were Chelsea Downes Asha Malde and Jacinta and Isobel Boyce

The Intermediate Boys had another tough season however the

score lines were remarkably smaller than last season A crunching

7-1 loss to Ashdale followed by a narrow 2-1 loss to Shenton

showed the boys were improving Their last game against

Churchlands was very tight in the first half with multiple chances

on goal in the first half but somehow not finding the back of the

net The second half saw Churchlands run away with a 6-0 win

Honourable mentions go to Milad Safari Jigme Dorji and Atanas

Atanasav

The Senior Boys had a mixed season They started well with a resounding 3-0 win over St Stephens the

following week saw a narrow loss to Mater Dei despite the boys playing some brilliant soccer A forfeit

from Quinns gave them a 3-0 win on paper and they needed to win their recent clash with Balga SHS to

keep their finals hopes alive Sadly despite some valiant efforts from the likes of OT Mbafumoja Regis

Gatambiye Ahmed Omer and Aaron Deeks it wasnrsquot enough with Balga taking a 2-0 win There is one

more game left in the group stage which will be an away game on 25 June against Duncraig SHS

Despite our season earlier than we normally would like you can still enjoy the World Cup

The Year 9 Outdoor Education class set out on a fishing expedition to Rottnest island on Thursday

31 May The class spent weeks preparing for the expedition learning how to set up rigs tie knots

cast out and how to snag a big one The week leading up to Rottnest had high anticipation

throughout the class the question was ldquowho was going to get the biggest catchrdquo

As the morning arrived a dark and cold chill shivered through everyone ldquooh wait thatrsquos just the

weatherrdquo A storm had decided to hit the Perth coast in full force and provided not only challenging

fishing conditions but a crazy boat ride over The weather didnrsquot seem to dampen the morale of the

class although the boat ride would soon change this You know itrsquos a good start to a boat ride when

they hand you a sick bag as you boardhelliphellip

As we left Hillaryrsquos harbour there was laughter and jokes getting thrown around until the boat

stepped out into the ocean swell and the only thing that was getting thrown around were screams from

students and the odd little vomit Some thought this was the end With the skill of the Captain or just

luck of the draw we landed safe on the island With the crazy ride over there was a sigh of relief ldquoyayrdquo

fishing time

We had keen fishermen on our hands We delegated the fishing gear out and started our trek by foot

our destinationmdash the Army jetty The fish were about to get a shock

As we arrived it was still pouring with rain and down to 10 degrees but this didnrsquot stop any ldquooutdoor

eagersrdquo With the likes of AJ no shoes no jumper and just shorts he was running to the water to get

first cast and have the chance of bragging rights for the first catch Within minutes there wasnrsquot a ldquodryrdquo

seat in the house with all students out wetting a line

Moral was high although it was a slow start to the day The only thing getting reeled in was seaweed or a

cold BANG Harry Burt is on The rod has a big bend to it and it looks to be a big onehellip hold onhellip waithellip

what is that thing ldquoSir I caught someonersquos underwearrdquo Well at least we werenrsquot going home empty

handed

With the first catch being a pair of underwear things were starting to look south The class kept at it

battling the weather they started to hit the target The fish were biting and the race was on The fish

started to get pulled in and the smiles and bragging rights started to flow The rain still coming down

sideways in buckets While Mr Tippet Mrs Tkachenko and Mr Gillespie tackled the weather with the

students Mr Walczak kept cosy under the shelter with his knitted blanket and gloves With the fishing

coming to an end Jayden was crowned Champion Angler with a total count of 12 fish Despite the

protest from Harry with his imaginary 10ft snapper that magically got away

With the gear packed up it was time to start the hike back to the boat With the boat ride we had

coming to Rottnest I think the return boat ride was on everyonersquos thoughts With a small debrief of the

day and a bit of free time to go get some food we boarded the boat and set sail for Hillaryrsquos boat

harbour The ride home was smooth sailing as the wind was low and we had the swell on our side A

safe landing at the boat harbour had topped off the trip of on a good note and left everyone with plenty

of stories to tell

O U T D O O R E D ( P R A C T E A C H E R )

The 1st of June - day two of the Year 9s fishing expedition had commenced The sun was out spirits

were high and the sea was friendly to 50 of the class which managed to keep their breakfast in

In a lot of ways group oneday 1 and group twoday 2 were polar opposites The boat ride on the

second day was majestic compared to the ldquorollierdquo tides on day one Thunderstorms and heavy rain

one day - bright and sunny days on the next Day two students were blessed to say the least

Mr Bean kept those of who didnrsquot vomit entertained for the 40-45-minute trip with his timeless

humour Mr Gillespie tried working on his lesson plans but soon realised student numbers of sea

sickness was on the rise and other students were growing restless The seasick students were

quickly bundled upstairs to grab some fresh air with teachers to console them and their upset stomachs

Arriving at Rottnest the students were eager to replenish their recently empty stomachs putting Subway

and the local bakery into overdrive On a personal note the pies and pastries were an absolute dime

and are a MUST try After the students consumed the majority of Subwaysrsquo stock and took many selfies

with quokkas as physically possible we set out to acquire our sweet rides for the day

Mr Tippet refused Mr Gillespiersquos offer to take a tandem bike and was therefore designated the work

horse for the day and was given the trailer to cart around Mrs Tkachenko was the ever proficient and

gallant ldquopack leaderrdquo Mr Erwin the squad ldquomechanicmedicrdquo and Mr Gillespie was ldquochief motivatorall-

round utilityrdquo The students were responsible for their own equipment and had become giddy with

excitement once the sweet rides were obtained

We then set off to Salmon Bay to fish the sea dry There were ups and downs but there were more ups

then downshellip then we arrived Mr Erwinsrsquo skill as a bike technician came in handy multiple times on the

arduous journey while the students struggled to keep pace with the lightning fast Mrs Tkachenko Mr

Tippet took the fable of the tortoise and the hair very literally and kept a solid pace the entire way giving

his well-manicured legs a workout he would never forget

The word lsquoscenicrsquo comes to mind when reaching our destination with the lighthouse in the background

the sun beaming down the beautiful hilly terrain meeting the rocks and the tide gracefully touching the

sand with seaweed in massive clumps creating an interesting aroma Were we lucky to be fishing today

Now it was time for all the ground work done in class to rise to the occasion and begin fishing The girls

went off to a flying start and finished the day with a grand total of 37 fish Special mentions to Ella

Mason and Ashley Mathies who contributed ten fish between them and Marli Rabe who contributed with

a hefty four

Atanas Atanasoy caught the ldquoCATCH OF THE DAYrdquo - a 30cm Skippy which he took home for dinner

Sasha Babic and Rory Noonan had four each After the long glorious successful day we managed to

pack up without a hitch and ride back along the smooth road of Rottnest Except Mr Tippet (the work

horse) had to cart the supplies back with no help The students then tracked down the quokkas for more

selfies and finished their day with delicious pies and Subway before the setting sail back to the

motherland

Mr Bean managed to keep the extremely tired students entertained Their stomachs had settled we set

off once again having conquered Rottenest to our rear and dry land to our front In summary everyone

had a great day coming home wreaking of successful fishing

The Year 9 Outdoor Education class set out on a fishing expedition to Rottnest island on Thursday

31 May The class spent weeks preparing for the expedition learning how to set up rigs tie knots

cast out and how to snag a big one The week leading up to Rottnest had high anticipation

throughout the class the question was ldquowho was going to get the biggest catchrdquo

As the morning arrived a dark and cold chill shivered through everyone ldquooh wait thatrsquos just the

weatherrdquo A storm had decided to hit the Perth coast in full force and provided not only challenging

fishing conditions but a crazy boat ride over The weather didnrsquot seem to dampen the morale of the

class although the boat ride would soon change this You know itrsquos a good start to a boat ride when

they hand you a sick bag as you boardhelliphellip

As we left Hillaryrsquos harbour there was laughter and jokes getting thrown around until the boat

stepped out into the ocean swell and the only thing that was getting thrown around were screams from

students and the odd little vomit Some thought this was the end With the skill of the Captain or just

luck of the draw we landed safe on the island With the crazy ride over there was a sigh of relief ldquoyayrdquo

fishing time

We had keen fishermen on our hands We delegated the fishing gear out and started our trek by foot

our destinationmdash the Army jetty The fish were about to get a shock

As we arrived it was still pouring with rain and down to 10 degrees but this didnrsquot stop any ldquooutdoor

eagersrdquo With the likes of AJ no shoes no jumper and just shorts he was running to the water to get

first cast and have the chance of bragging rights for the first catch Within minutes there wasnrsquot a ldquodryrdquo

seat in the house with all students out wetting a line

Moral was high although it was a slow start to the day The only thing getting reeled in was seaweed or a

cold BANG Harry Burt is on The rod has a big bend to it and it looks to be a big onehellip hold onhellip waithellip

what is that thing ldquoSir I caught someonersquos underwearrdquo Well at least we werenrsquot going home empty

handed

With the first catch being a pair of underwear things were starting to look south The class kept at it

battling the weather they started to hit the target The fish were biting and the race was on The fish

started to get pulled in and the smiles and bragging rights started to flow The rain still coming down

sideways in buckets While Mr Tippet Mrs Tkachenko and Mr Gillespie tackled the weather with the

students Mr Walczak kept cosy under the shelter with his knitted blanket and gloves With the fishing

coming to an end Jayden was crowned Champion Angler with a total count of 12 fish Despite the

protest from Harry with his imaginary 10ft snapper that magically got away

With the gear packed up it was time to start the hike back to the boat With the boat ride we had

coming to Rottnest I think the return boat ride was on everyonersquos thoughts With a small debrief of the

day and a bit of free time to go get some food we boarded the boat and set sail for Hillaryrsquos boat

harbour The ride home was smooth sailing as the wind was low and we had the swell on our side A

safe landing at the boat harbour had topped off the trip of on a good note and left everyone with plenty

of stories to tell

O U T D O O R E D ( P R A C T E A C H E R )

The 1st of June - day two of the Year 9s fishing expedition had commenced The sun was out spirits

were high and the sea was friendly to 50 of the class which managed to keep their breakfast in

In a lot of ways group oneday 1 and group twoday 2 were polar opposites The boat ride on the

second day was majestic compared to the ldquorollierdquo tides on day one Thunderstorms and heavy rain

one day - bright and sunny days on the next Day two students were blessed to say the least

Mr Bean kept those of who didnrsquot vomit entertained for the 40-45-minute trip with his timeless

humour Mr Gillespie tried working on his lesson plans but soon realised student numbers of sea

sickness was on the rise and other students were growing restless The seasick students were

quickly bundled upstairs to grab some fresh air with teachers to console them and their upset stomachs

Arriving at Rottnest the students were eager to replenish their recently empty stomachs putting Subway

and the local bakery into overdrive On a personal note the pies and pastries were an absolute dime

and are a MUST try After the students consumed the majority of Subwaysrsquo stock and took many selfies

with quokkas as physically possible we set out to acquire our sweet rides for the day

Mr Tippet refused Mr Gillespiersquos offer to take a tandem bike and was therefore designated the work

horse for the day and was given the trailer to cart around Mrs Tkachenko was the ever proficient and

gallant ldquopack leaderrdquo Mr Erwin the squad ldquomechanicmedicrdquo and Mr Gillespie was ldquochief motivatorall-

round utilityrdquo The students were responsible for their own equipment and had become giddy with

excitement once the sweet rides were obtained

We then set off to Salmon Bay to fish the sea dry There were ups and downs but there were more ups

then downshellip then we arrived Mr Erwinsrsquo skill as a bike technician came in handy multiple times on the

arduous journey while the students struggled to keep pace with the lightning fast Mrs Tkachenko Mr

Tippet took the fable of the tortoise and the hair very literally and kept a solid pace the entire way giving

his well-manicured legs a workout he would never forget

The word lsquoscenicrsquo comes to mind when reaching our destination with the lighthouse in the background

the sun beaming down the beautiful hilly terrain meeting the rocks and the tide gracefully touching the

sand with seaweed in massive clumps creating an interesting aroma Were we lucky to be fishing today

Now it was time for all the ground work done in class to rise to the occasion and begin fishing The girls

went off to a flying start and finished the day with a grand total of 37 fish Special mentions to Ella

Mason and Ashley Mathies who contributed ten fish between them and Marli Rabe who contributed with

a hefty four

Atanas Atanasoy caught the ldquoCATCH OF THE DAYrdquo - a 30cm Skippy which he took home for dinner

Sasha Babic and Rory Noonan had four each After the long glorious successful day we managed to

pack up without a hitch and ride back along the smooth road of Rottnest Except Mr Tippet (the work

horse) had to cart the supplies back with no help The students then tracked down the quokkas for more

selfies and finished their day with delicious pies and Subway before the setting sail back to the

motherland

Mr Bean managed to keep the extremely tired students entertained Their stomachs had settled we set

off once again having conquered Rottenest to our rear and dry land to our front In summary everyone

had a great day coming home wreaking of successful fishing

O U T D O O R E D ( P R A C T E A C H E R )

The 1st of June - day two of the Year 9s fishing expedition had commenced The sun was out spirits

were high and the sea was friendly to 50 of the class which managed to keep their breakfast in

In a lot of ways group oneday 1 and group twoday 2 were polar opposites The boat ride on the

second day was majestic compared to the ldquorollierdquo tides on day one Thunderstorms and heavy rain

one day - bright and sunny days on the next Day two students were blessed to say the least

Mr Bean kept those of who didnrsquot vomit entertained for the 40-45-minute trip with his timeless

humour Mr Gillespie tried working on his lesson plans but soon realised student numbers of sea

sickness was on the rise and other students were growing restless The seasick students were

quickly bundled upstairs to grab some fresh air with teachers to console them and their upset stomachs

Arriving at Rottnest the students were eager to replenish their recently empty stomachs putting Subway

and the local bakery into overdrive On a personal note the pies and pastries were an absolute dime

and are a MUST try After the students consumed the majority of Subwaysrsquo stock and took many selfies

with quokkas as physically possible we set out to acquire our sweet rides for the day

Mr Tippet refused Mr Gillespiersquos offer to take a tandem bike and was therefore designated the work

horse for the day and was given the trailer to cart around Mrs Tkachenko was the ever proficient and

gallant ldquopack leaderrdquo Mr Erwin the squad ldquomechanicmedicrdquo and Mr Gillespie was ldquochief motivatorall-

round utilityrdquo The students were responsible for their own equipment and had become giddy with

excitement once the sweet rides were obtained

We then set off to Salmon Bay to fish the sea dry There were ups and downs but there were more ups

then downshellip then we arrived Mr Erwinsrsquo skill as a bike technician came in handy multiple times on the

arduous journey while the students struggled to keep pace with the lightning fast Mrs Tkachenko Mr

Tippet took the fable of the tortoise and the hair very literally and kept a solid pace the entire way giving

his well-manicured legs a workout he would never forget

The word lsquoscenicrsquo comes to mind when reaching our destination with the lighthouse in the background

the sun beaming down the beautiful hilly terrain meeting the rocks and the tide gracefully touching the

sand with seaweed in massive clumps creating an interesting aroma Were we lucky to be fishing today

Now it was time for all the ground work done in class to rise to the occasion and begin fishing The girls

went off to a flying start and finished the day with a grand total of 37 fish Special mentions to Ella

Mason and Ashley Mathies who contributed ten fish between them and Marli Rabe who contributed with

a hefty four

Atanas Atanasoy caught the ldquoCATCH OF THE DAYrdquo - a 30cm Skippy which he took home for dinner

Sasha Babic and Rory Noonan had four each After the long glorious successful day we managed to

pack up without a hitch and ride back along the smooth road of Rottnest Except Mr Tippet (the work

horse) had to cart the supplies back with no help The students then tracked down the quokkas for more

selfies and finished their day with delicious pies and Subway before the setting sail back to the

motherland

Mr Bean managed to keep the extremely tired students entertained Their stomachs had settled we set

off once again having conquered Rottenest to our rear and dry land to our front In summary everyone

had a great day coming home wreaking of successful fishing

after school c lubs Rottnest

excursions and even exams (Years 10 11 and 12) This provided a variety for the

categories of points earned such as Academic House Points and Behaviour Merit Points

Currently our House is ranked No 1 in the standings and this is due to the outstanding

effort presented by the students and their enthusiasm toward earning House Points And

remember Redbacks every point earned no matter how insignificant it may seem will

add up toward the House Championship So try your best and MAKE CURTIN PROUD
