    Sustaining Success: a Case Study of Effective Practices in Fairfield HVA

    OCTOBER 2017 Sustaining Success: A case study of effective practices in Fairfield high value-add schools Centre for Education Statistics and Evaluation The Centre for Education Statistics and Evaluation (CESE), undertakes in-depth analysis of education programs and outcomes across early childhood, school, training and higher education to inform whole-of-government, evidence based decision making. Put simply, it seeks to find out what works best. CESE’s three main responsibilities are to: • provide data analysis, information and evaluation that improve effectiveness, efficiency and accountability of education programs and strategies. • collect essential education data and provide a one-stop shop for information needs – a single access point to education data that has appropriate safeguards to protect data confidentiality and integrity • build capacity across the whole education sector so that everyone can make better use of data and evidence.

    Exhibition Catalogue Message from Our Co-Chairs

    EXHIBITION CATALOGUE MESSAGE FROM OUR CO-CHAIRS In 2019 we are celebrating 10 years of the Schools Reconciliation Challenge (SRC)! For 10 years Reconciliation NSW has been engaging young people and schools in reconciliation. Our theme this year, Speaking and Listening from the Heart has inspired primary and high school students from across NSW and the ACT to create reconciliation-inspired art and writing for the SRC. We continue to be inspired by the contribution these young people, from many different backgrounds, make to reconciliation with their talent and insight. We thank each and every school, teacher, principal, parent and student who has taken part, guided and supported students and each other. It is thanks to their dedication that the SRC continues to grow each year. We are grateful for their hard work and commitment in ensuring that schools are key contributors to reconciliation processes. In 2019 we received 415 art and writing entries from students across NSW and the ACT, each reflecting the theme and their perspectives on Australia’s ongoing reconciliation journey. It is a privilege to see the depth of engagement, insight and commitment to reconciliation in action that students demonstrate ACKNOWLEDGMENT through their art and writing entries. OF COUNTRY The quality of the art and writing entries we received made the selection process for the exhibition Reconciliation NSW hard work. Many of the artworks were developed acknowledges the collaboratively, involving classes or groups of students traditional owners of under the guidance of local Aboriginal artists, parents Country throughout and community members. We thank the panel of NSW and the ACT judges: Jody Broun, Fiona Petersen, Kirli Saunders, and recognises their Jane Waters, Annie Tennant, Yvette Poshoglian and continuing connections Fiona Britton for their time and expertise in selecting to land, waters and this year’s entries.

    Stem Richmond River High Campus

    THE RIVERS SECONDARY COLLEGE The Rivers Secondary College is the heart of secondary education for Lismore. Consisting of three campuses, Kadina High Campus, Lismore High Campus and Richmond River High Campus, The Rivers Secondary College caters for the educational needs of students wishing to pursue the NSW Higher School Certificate, Vocational Education or an alternative pathway. Our students have the benefit of both specialised programs provided by each of our comprehensive 7-12 campuses as well as the combined college programs; including Shared Curriculum, college sporting teams, college dance ensemble, college creative and performing arts events and our college wellbeing program. We provide a learning environment based on high expectations, mutual respect and personal development. With a strong focus on quality teaching, learning and leading, our teaching programs prepare students for the challenging, ever changing world of which they are a part. Our programs go beyond the core curriculum and allow our students to explore the connections that their learning has with other subject areas, their prior learning and the wider world. Our students not only feel they are part of a vibrant learning community, they recognise the importance of our connections to the broader community. We are strongly supported by Southern Cross University, TAFE, Lismore Council and a range of non-government organisations. The Rivers Secondary College is continually looking for opportunities for our students to give back and participate in community events and initiatives. Having held the position of Principal at The Kadina High Campus since the beginning of 2010, I have seen many changes in public education in Lismore.

The purpose of this study tour is to analyse and compare the Vocational Education and Training (Agriculture/Horticulture/Primary Industries) programs offered to school students in the USA in comparison to Australia and how these articulate or prepare students for post school vocational education and training. I will be travelling to the USA in January 2016 for five weeks. While there, I will visit schools, farms and also attend the Colorado Agriculture Teachers Conference on 29-30th January 2016. I am happy to send a detailed report of my experiences and share what I gained during this study tour with all Agriculture teachers out there. On the 29th of August I went to Sydney Parliament house where I was presented with an award by the Minister of Education Adrian Piccoli.
