Our local member and great supporter of the school, The Honorable Ms Virginia Judge, along with the School Education Director Ms Angela Lyris, attended this gala event.

Ms Milovanovic is a trained English teacher and she will be supporting our rich teaching and learn- Mr Tim Jurd DEPUTY PRINCIPAL TEACHING & LEARNING Term 3 greets us with a series of significant curriculum events – one is, of course, the Trial HSC. It’s reas- suring to see Year 12 students applying what they’ve learnt in their study skills programs over the course of Term #3.1 high school: note taking, mnemonics, practice papers, using the library effectively during study periods. For some, the demands can begin to seem overwhelming. An important strategy is ‘chunking’ – breaking down a large task into more manageable chunks. The feeling of success generated when a chunk is complete is motiva- tion in itself. Subject selection processes are well underway for Year 8 and Year 10. Parent attendance at our information ses- sions was excellent. The same guiding principle applies 3 to both years: choose subjects that you are interested in and are good at. I encourage students and parents Mr Tim Jurd welcomes Ms Milovanovic to the school. to think carefully about their choices and adhere to the timelines given, as we can’t guarantee that any later 2010 changes can be accommodated and these are subjects that they will be doing for TWO years.. BOB (Battle Of the Brains) is one of the many extra- curricular events that our students are involved in. BOB happens at the end of each term and involves 30 enthusi- astic readers (chosen from the Premier’s Reading Chal- lenge participants) to test their knowledge of all things literary, against 30 enthusiastic readers from Birrong Girls. There are two trophies to be won – last term each school earned a trophy. Congratulations to all students involved, including the helpers, and to the staff who organised this wonderful event where students continue to impress us with their detailed knowledge. Our teachers have participated in a very productive School Development Day at the beginning of this The happy band of canteen workers welcomes Ms Kelly Whelan to term, undertaking workshops in literacy, ICT skills and the fold. student engagement.

It was such a great experience for me growing up and participating in swimming championships offered in the public school system. School Sport offered so many opportunities for myself and gave me so much motivation to perform both in and out of school. Throughout my primary schooling I did well and reached the State Championships, winning medals. In high school my competitive swimming outside of school competition suffered and I was thinking whether or not to continue. When I was 16 I was able to win a medal in the 800metres at the NSWCHSSA Championships and that was a massive boost for me, It was the start of a new chapter in my swimming career. It pushed me to new levels. In Year 11 and Year 12 I was able to make it through to NSW All Schools and then to the National School Swimming Championships where I was able to win medals. The year after leaving school I was selected in my first Australian Open Swimming Team at the 1999 Pan Pacific Championships.
