Important Dates Significant in Developing a Positive and Respectful School Culture Where Student Wellbeing and Safety Are Paramount High School PRINCIPAL’S REPORT Student Safety, Health & Wellbeing is an essential element of the Bordertown High School community. It could well be argued that it is one of the most important elements. Along with the acquisition of literacy and numeracy skills, parents send their children to school expecting that they will be safe and happy and all school staff have this at the front and centre of their daily interactions with students. At Bordertown High School, we have extremely high expectations of our staff (and all adults in the school community) that they will model and practise positive and respectful interactions at all times. In practice, this includes actions such as: Issue 7 Speaking in a courteous, respectful manner to staff, students and parents Listening respectfully and actively to staff, students and parents (this includes 25 May 2018 behaviours such as making eye contact and positive body language) Acknowledging differing viewpoints (which doesn’t necessarily mean agreeing Term 2, Week 4 with them) Being honest when confronted by challenging situations Respecting confidentiality and not ‘gossiping’ An appreciation of our core school value of Respect and what this ‘looks like’ is very Important dates significant in developing a positive and respectful school culture where student wellbeing and safety are paramount. At Bordertown High School we aim to develop positive relationships with others, improve ourselves and work to the best of our ability in all areas. Respect is our primary value and those that leave us as respectful individuals are 22 May well set up to make their impact on the world. Yr 8 & 9 Football At last night’s Finance Committee Meeting a number of submissions to fund various 8 June faculty projects were successful. The school is now able to purchase Maths programs, Student Free Day music for our new band, STEM kits, upgraded art room tables, a second class set of iPads and a staff training program to develop a student behaviour culture change. A hallmark of our processes at Bordertown High has been the way staff present 11 June applications that are student centred for funding and the Finance Committee’s support of Queens Birthday these. Our STEM Centre continues to make slow progress with an occupation time now somewhere early to mid term three. The internal space continues to look inspiring and the outside will undergo some major changes soon with the building of the awning joining the Centre to the Main building. The Public Education Awards are now open until May 31st. Members of the public can nominate an educator for these awards. There are 10 categories in which educators can 30 South Terrace be nominated – some of these are: Innovation in Practice Award, Teachers Health Bordertown SA 5268 Leadership Award, Secondary Teacher of the Year, School Support Award (SSO’s), T: 87521455 Community Engagement Award and Performance Through Values Award.

E:[email protected] W:www.borderhs.sa.edu.au With cooler weather here now we are beginning to see clothing that is not part of our uniform being worn. Could all families please make an effort to ensure that students attend school in the correct uniform. Markus Trnovsky Grady Hudd Having been born in Bordertown, I attended Bordertown Primary School and following that attended Bordertown High School for my secondary education. During Year 12, which I graduated from in 2008, I studied English Studies, Maths Studies, Information Processing and Publishing, Chemistry and Geography – my teachers for those subjects were Mrs Cozens, Mr Savage, Mr Trnovsky, Mr O’Connell, and Mrs Walter, respectively. English was my favourite subject at school, hence me deciding to pursue a Bachelor of Journalism at the University of South Australia, studying predominantly at the Magill Campus, in order to begin a career in journalism. The decision to study journalism came about because I wanted a career that involved writing, but also getting out and meeting new people each week – journalism seemed the perfect fit. I filled in as a journalist at the local paper in Bordertown, the Border Chronicle, while I was still at university, but my first proper job was at the Kaniva Times newspaper in Kaniva. After a year there, I joined The Bunyip, in Gawler, in early 2014 as a sports journalist. I worked as The Bunyip's sports writer for around 18 months, after which I moved into a senior journalist position at the beginning of 2016. Six months later, I was appointed editor of The Bunyip and am still here today. The education I received at BHS played a huge role in helping me get to where I am now – I still remember the English classes with Mrs Cozens where we had to search for the deeper meaning behind various literature and filmography. At the time it seemed a bizarre thing to do but, looking back, those skills – and learning to not simply take everything you read at face value – certainly put me in good stead for a career in journalism. When I tell people that I completed my schooling at BHS, most people ask ‘where’s Bordertown?’ People who have completed private school can sometimes be quick to knock the public education system, but the notion that public school students have less quality education, or less opportunity, couldn’t be further from the truth. My high school years were some of the most fun times of my life – I made lifelong friends, got a great education, and learned important life skills. My message to current students would be to enjoy your school years while you can – don’t be afraid to put yourself out there, try hard, and have a go at everything, because you’ll be in the workforce before you know it. The Holocaust Memorial Exhibition On Monday the ninth of April, our Year 10 class had a museum exhibition about the Holocaust which happened during World War Two. The holocaust was a mass genocide killing of the unwanted people in German society under the Nazi regime. During the Holocaust, six million Jews died. Each member of our class researched a person from the Holocaust and had to present it through a map, poster, timeline, photo story, diary, voice recording or a structure of sorts to represent their person. Some students decided to bring in symbols, for example the star of David for the Jews. In addition, some students brought in food that the prisoners had. When you entered the exhibition you were given an ID card and you were encouraged to find out if your person died during the Holocaust, or if they managed to survive. Our class spent most of the Term researching and preparing for the Holocaust Exhibition and the result was a touching and interesting memorial to those individuals. John McFarlane Performance Band and Choir Bordertown High School and Mundulla Primary School participated in their first Performance Band Rehearsal on Monday night 21st May. The band, and attached choir, illustrated a promising start, tackling two pieces of music enthusiastically. We have a whole range of instruments and the band will meet up every two weeks henceforth. If you play a musical instrument, love to sing, or would love to learn, we want you! Come along to our next rehearsal - Monday 3rd June, Week 6. Practice starts at 4pm and finishes at 5pm. Let Miss Moxon know if you’d like to join, and what you’re interested in doing, and all that jazz. Emily Moxon Bordertown High School Breakfast Club Late last term and continuing on into this term, Bordertown High School has seen the successful introduction of a ‘Breakfast Club.’ This is facilitated by Cathy Hinge and Jacqui Edge and is supported by members of the SRC. The Breakfast Club is held every Tuesday and Thursday from 8:15am in the Home Ec centre, where students are provided with a free breakfast. There is significant research identifying the learning benefits for students who eat breakfast and it has been great to see so many students utilising this service; however, the more the merrier! A special mention goes to Cowboys and Angels and Mundulla Shop for their donations of bread to support this service, as well as Foodbank Mount Gambier who provide the Breakfast Club with the majority of the food and drink on offer. We would also like to thank the numerous people who help with collecting and transporting the food to us at the school. The Bordertown High School Breakfast Club has now become an ongoing service and we look forward to seeing more people come along. Good service, nice time to chat Best Milos ever!! I like the food Great for bus students that have no breakfast Year 9 Agriculture COWS CREATE CAREERS The Year 9 Ag class has been involved in a program called ‘Cows Create Careers’. Its main emphasis is for students to become more familiar with the dairy industry and create awareness for the number of jobs within the industry. The Program is run in several different sections across South Australia with Bordertown being included in the Murray Lands area. Our students are competing against other schools within our zone. Students have been put in groups and we have received 2 heifer calves from Scott Lack which the students are caring for over a 3 week period. We initially went for an excursion to Scott’s dairy where he showed us his rotary system and how they look after their calves.
