This time last year I was reflecting on 2018, the year in which we won the Australian Government Secondary School of the Year, and I couldn’t help but think that it would be a great challenge to better 2018. Well, I needn’t have been concerned and I’m sure you will see why as I take you on a bit of a journey through the last 11 months - we’ve had another stellar year. I’m going to start with our academic success because that is unashamedly our No.1 priority. Perhaps the highlight was our 3rd consecutive year of best-ever NAPLAN results; in every category these were record results for both Years 7&9. Our academic extension program continues to produce student excellence across all years. Those who attended our G&T Showcase last Thursday were left in no doubt about the quality of work from our high achieving academic students. Our STEM program is in its fourth iteration and continues to reveal that the future of science, technology, engineering and maths is in good hands with Endeavour students. Two highlights of the program were being crowned Champions of the University of Wollongong and Newcastle’s Illawarra & South East Science & Engineering Challenge; and, more recently, our Year 8 STEM Challenge that showcased our students’ abilities across a range of activities. We continue to excel in debating and public speaking with students achieving outstanding results in competitions. Of particular note was the success of Damien Murphy who made the Sydney Regional Final of the NSW Plain English Speaking Award, and Brae Ovens who was selected to deliver a speech at the Children’s Week Parliament in Parliament House. I could go on, but you get the picture that our students are excelling academically both inside and outside of the classroom. Everybody is aware of our High Expectations policy which has enhanced our culture of achievement. Recipients of Gold Flags at the end of each term are issued to students whose attendance, behaviour and academic work have been of a consistently high standard. Each term we recognise these students and thank them for setting the standard for others. We have built a culture of success, one that allows a diverse range of talents to thrive. Nowhere is this more evident than with our creative and performing arts program, with its pinnacle being our annual Performing Arts Showcase. On Tuesday night we saw 21 acts of drama, dance, music, rhythmic gymnastics and cheerleading. There were student performances from first timers to stars on the rise to our very own professional dancer Asha Rostron who is currently appearing in School of Rock at the Capitol Theatre. For me, and I'm sure for many others, this has become the highlight of our school year. A chance for all of us to come together to witness the depth and breadth of talent, celebrate what we are all a part of, and leave with a sense of pride that we are Endeavour. Our community spirit and commitment to worthy causes was on full display with participation in Movember, the White Ribbon March, Drought Aid and through performances at local nursing homes. We are instilling in our students the desire to make positive contributions to society. Once again, we have demonstrated our commitment to providing enriching extra-curricular activities: our school camps, field trips, cultural awareness activities and academic challenges provide students with additional skills and memorable experiences. The most exciting development in this space in 2019 has been the addition of the Duke of Edinburgh Award led by the amazing Jane Scarsbrook. It didn’t take long for us to be noticed as we were invited as guests of the Earl of Wessex at Government House for the Award’s 60th anniversary. Student leadership at Endeavour is highly sought after and we have been fortunate to have exceptional captains in 2019 with Steve Gamu and Ella Robinson and their successors are the equally respected Akash Biradar and Hannah Higgins. Our exceptional student leadership extends to our vice captains, prefects and SRC representatives who lead by example and are proud to wear the Endeavour leadership badge. Our Targeted Sports Program has produced more regional, state and Australian representatives - across a greater variety of sports - than ever before. Individuals and teams have reached a record number of semi-finals and finals of state and national competitions across hockey, football, rugby league, cricket, netball, cheerleading, rugby union, athletics, tennis, dance and swimming. A team sport highlight was finishing runners-up in the National Bill Turner Cup for soccer, and on an individual level Tomysha Clark won gold for Australia at the Oceania Championships. Next year we can look forward to at least two former Endeavour students competing at the Tokyo Olympics. I must also make special mention of our third inductee to our Sporting Hall of Fame – Alex Johnston. Alex not only plays professional rugby league for Souths, won a grand final and represented his country, but he was also dux of Endeavour. And I am looking forward to announcing, shortly, our second inductee to our Distinguished Achiever Hall of Fame. We continue to add to our impressive state-of-the art facilities. This year we installed a five net high performance cricket facility that is the best in Southern Sydney, undertook significant upgrade works both in classrooms and externally, now have professional lighting and sound for our hall, and work has already begun on a complete library refurbishment. This refurb will expand the space, provide two additional technology rooms and include flexible learning spaces. This will enhance the already significant role that this area plays as a hub of learning. We continue to be recognised for our excellence by the NSW Department of Education and the wider community. Four of our staff members were acknowledged at the Principal Network Awards for outstanding performance in their roles. We were also chosen as the backdrop for the NSW Public Education Foundation’s 2020 video promotion of public education. And HSIE teacher Madi Jessop was a finalist for the ‘Rising Star of the Year’ at the Australian Education Awards. Perhaps our most high profile advocate is the Prime Minister. It's not often that a sitting PM appears in a video describing a school’s success, but this - and the several visits the PM has made to us - indicate his pride in Endeavour. It was another year of Endeavour in the media. Our schoolwide success featured in the international education magazine ‘The Knowledge Review’, and there were several articles published in the Leader and Canterbury Bankstown Torch. In addition, as of today, we have over 5,700 followers on Facebook, 2,200 on Instagram and have had over 29,000 people visit our Website. We are irrefutably the most followed school on social media in the Shire and beyond. I have an amazing team of school leaders, teachers, support teachers and administration staff. It takes a highly skilled and dedicated team to achieve the results I have just described. They inspire me every day with their dedication to their roles and commitment to the needs of our students. They give me enormous confidence that Endeavour’s future success is assured. Unfortunately, as is often the case at the end of the school year, we have to say goodbye to special people: Mr Bradley certainly fits into that category as he enters retirement. Beginning at Endeavour in 2002, Chris has given almost two decades of dedicated service to our school as a teacher, head teacher, football coach and leader of extra-curricular pursuits. Chris loves Endeavour and this has been obvious in everything he does. He has many admirable qualities, but the one most salient in my eyes is his strong advocacy for the students; he has always put them first. The good news is that Chris will continue to have a strong association with the school as he retains a football coaching role. Every day our wonderful team of professionals delivers an educational environment that provides opportunities for our students to achieve great things and set themselves on a path for long term future success. I would like to thank our young people for embracing those opportunities. You make what we give to Endeavour so worthwhile! James Kozlowski Principal Message from Jocelyn Gooch – Deputy Principal This year Term 4 is ending with unprecedented speed. This serves to highlight the busy nature of the year and all that the school community has accomplished. At present Year 11 are working hard, having nearly completed a term’s work of the HSC course and Years 7 and 9 have finished their yearly examinations. Wherever you look something exciting, challenging and new is occurring around the school. The talent that our students display in the classroom and in the sporting arena is staggering.

I would also like to thank each and every one of you for welcoming me so warmly into the college this year. It has been an absolute privilege to work with such a talented and inspiring cohort of young people, and the staff that continue to off er their unwavering support to assist in the achievement of the goals and dreams of the students they educate. As we close out the academic year with a series of celebrations and ceremonies, I bid farewell to our 2019 graduates and extend a warm welcome to our incoming students and their families that will be joining us for the fi rst time in 2020, and welcome back to those families who have been with us before. We are currently experiencing a period of enrolment growth at EC and have some very exciting initiatives commencing next year. We can’t wait to share these with you once students return.

  • March 2021 Tech Talk
    Tech Talk Sydney March Technical 2021 High School PRESENTATION DAY PRINCIPAL Speech day was extremely successful this year and it was the first occasion whereby this ceremony was simultaneously delivered live to our student NEWS body and via social media to our community. I was acutely aware of the far- reaching effect this livestream meant to family, relatives, alumni and friends as we were able to gather and celebrate our student success on a global level. We warmly welcomed back Sam Dando, ex-Deputy Principal, who was responsible for creating the “Sydney Technical High School Wall of Fame” in 2005. Mr Dando delivered a lovely speech about formally celebrating the achievements of our “Old Boys”. Mr Dando’s lovely memoirs of our alumni demonstrated high achievement in many diverse areas including: “inventors, surgeons, medical specialists, musicians, artists, dancers, architects, academics, administrators, economists, businessmen, educators, writers, politicians, engineers, media producers and personalities, sportsmen, Steven So sports administrators, and military Principal commanders”. This is a wonderful testament to the diverse success of our Alumni which is underpinned by the strong educational foundations provided at Sydney Technical High School. L-R: Jerry Mouzakis, Daniel Nemani (School I would like to thank the large team of Captain) and Sam Dando staff and students who made this event possible and acknowledge the never ending support of the Parents and Citizens Committee. I would like to publicly thank Trevor Trotman, Cheryl Feigen, Shane Gamage and Julie Ryan for their outstanding contributions in making the day exceptional. More photos of Presentation Day will be in the next edition of Tech Talk.

  • Enrolment Policy Updated June 2019
    Enrolment Policy Updated June 2019 Girraween High School is a fully academically selective high school. Enrolments are capped at 120 for Years 7–10 and 140 for Years 11–12. New vacancies are limited in Years 8–10 and only arise when a current student leaves. However, an additional class is formed for Year 11 and at least 20 places are offered. Enrolment into Year 12 would, in the majority of circumstances, be an educational disadvantage for the student. Therefore enrolment into Year 12 would be highly unlikely and would be at the discretion of the Principal. 1. Entry to Year 7 1.1 The High Performing Students Unit (HPSU) administers all aspects of Year 7 placement. This information may be accessed as follows: http://www.schools.nsw.edu.au/learning/k-6assessments/shsplacement/index.php Therefore Girraween High School has no control of entry into Year 7. 2. Entry to Years 8–12 2.1 Advertising: Advertising is arranged by the HPSU and is placed in selected metropolitan, regional and rural newspapers in mid-June to advise parents that limited vacancies may occur in selective high schools in Years 8–12. Information is provided on the Girraween High School website from mid-June of each year: http://www.girraween-h.schools.nsw.edu.au/our-school/enrolment 2.2 Application Package: It is mandatory that applicants use the official application package developed by the Department of Education (DoE). This may be accessed at: http://www.schools.nsw.edu.au/gotoschool/types/selectiveschools.php All applications must reach the school by the advertised date, usually toward the end of July.

    An overview of Stile, Australia’s #1 science resource provider EXECUTIVE SUMMARY FOR SCHOOL LEADERS Stile | Executive summary for school leaders 2 Table of contents Welcome letter 3 How we are rethinking science education > Our principles 5 > Our pedagogy 7 > Our approach 9 A simple solution > Stile Classroom 12 > Squiz 14 > Professional learning 15 > Stile Concierge 16 Key benefits 17 The Stile community of schools 19 The rest is easy 24 Stile | Executive summary for school leaders 3 It’s time to rethink science at school I’m continuously awestruck by the sheer power of science. In a mere 500 years, a tiny fraction of humanity’s long history, science – and the technological advances that have stemmed from it – has completely transformed every part of our lives. The scale of humanity’s scientific transformation in such a short period is so immense it’s hard to grasp. My grandmother was alive when one of the world’s oldest airlines, Qantas, was born. In her lifetime, flight has become as routine as daily roll call. Disease, famine and the toll of manual labour that once ravaged the world’s population have also been dramatically reduced. Science is at the heart of this progress. Given such incredible advancement, it’s tempting to think that science education must be in pretty good shape. Sadly, it isn’t. We could talk about falling PISA rankings, or declining STEM enrolments. But instead, and perhaps more importantly, let’s consider the world to which our students will graduate. A world of “fake news” and “alternative facts”.
