In the past, we have received excellent feedback from parents about the evening. I encourage parents and guardians of Grade 10 students to attend, so you are aware of all the opportunities that exist at Don College. Parent and Student Information Evening- Thursday 20 August We are excited about holding our ‘Parent and Student Information Evening’ on Thursday 20 August for all prospective 2016 Grade 7 students and their parents. The evening starts at 6:30pm in the school library. Parents and students who are unable to make it on the night are encouraged to contact the main office to arrange a meeting and tour of the school. NAPLAN Results While NAPLAN is one test on one day, it does give us important data that informs future teaching decisions and gives us an idea of how we are tracking as a school over time. It also provides us with important data on each individual student’s strengths and weaknesses. The data for Latrobe High School is showing very clearly that the work we have undertaken over the last few years is really showing results. Over the next week we will be mailing out to parents of Grade 7 and 9 students their son’s/daughter’s individual NAPLAN results.

Miss Mack Darcy Miller Henry MIgnot Seth Webb Harmoni Richardson Jenna Flack Kaycee Hering Seth Webb Annalise Castles Montana Lewis Shelby Bellchambers HPE HOT SPOT SPINE SOCIETY OF AUSTRALIA The National Self-Detection Program for Scoliosis (NSPS). Scoliosis (spinal curvature) is an important health problem for adolescent girls and 25 per thousand are at risk of developing a significant curve. Three girls per thousand require active treatment (spinal brace or surgery). Because in the early stages the condition is most often asymptomatic, screening in the age range 11-13 years is a sound preventative health measure. The Spine Society of Australia is encouraging girls in Grade 7 and 9 to access the Scoliosis Australia home page www.scoliosis- australia.org and print the brochure. The website contains comprehensive credible information about the symptoms and treatment of scoliosis. Using the forum on our website, girls and their parents can obtain general advice form certified specialists who manage patients with spinal curvature. The forum is a useful resource in providing searchable information posted by its members. It offers a strong support base for adolescent patients with scoliosis and their parents. Healthcare professionals and other interested parties can discuss the NSDP in the forum. Slipstream 2015 - ‘Dorothy’ Grade 7 students will have the opportunity to attend the performance on Tuesday September 1 at 10:30 am until 12.00 noon at the Ulverstone Civic Centre. Students who are interested can collect a permission form from the main office next week. BRICK LAYING PROGRAM – STEPPING OUT IN BRICKS From June 29 to July 2 we went to the Alanvale College in Launceston to do a Bricklaying course with professional bricklayer, Paul Mackay. The program started at 8:30am and went until 4 o’clock each day. We left Latrobe a bit before 7 o’clock each day just to make sure we were on time. At the course we learnt the basics of bricklaying such as mixing the mortar, spreading the mortar, laying bricks and all the health and safety requirements. It was very hard labour but we found the program very interesting and a very handy skill to learn. Along with learning the basics of bricklaying we also met students from other schools from in and around Launceston. The program was a huge success for both of us with the report back from Paul. Paul said we were always on time and we always showed respect to everyone.

Could we have a list of such schools or school regions that are currently unserved in terms of trade training options? Mr Cook: I am happy to take it on notice. Senator O'NEILL: If possible, by electorate, just a geoshot. Mr Cook: When you say 'unserved' do you mean no children at a school are accessing a centre? Senator O'NEILL: Yes. Where there are schools that are not able to access either directly in the school or in a site created by a cluster of schools seeking the funding. Mr Cook: Happy to take that on notice. Answer Attachment A lists the schools eligible to apply for funding under Round Five (Phase One) of the Trade Training Centres in Schools Program that had not been approved for funding as at 17 December 2013. These schools may have existing trade training arrangements in place, for example through local agreements to access Trade Training Centres or by partnering with existing Registered Training Organisations.

  • A Description of Non-Government Distance Education in Australia
    A DESCRIPTION OF NON-GOVERNMENT DISTANCE EDUCATION IN AUSTRALIA A Submission presented to the Minister for School Education, Early childhood and Youth August 2012 Dr Terry Harding BA DipEd DipCDP MEd PhD MACE MACEL Schools Department, Christian Education Ministries Abstract This study describes non-government distance education (NGDE) in Australia. It provides an overall picture of the elements of NGDE as practiced in various non-government schools in four Australian states. The study, the first of its kind in Australia, gives a brief historical background of distance education in Australia, providing a socio-cultural context for NGDE. It defines and describes NGDE, indicating its distinctives. The problematic issue of low Commonwealth recurrent funding of NGDE and its impact on NGDE, provides the setting and reason for the study. This issue is described in detail, in the light of government policy, social justice issues, educational equity and the current review of school funding in Australia. A mixed methods research approach delivered findings, which demonstrate NGDE to be a bona fide pedagogy, despite its under resourcing. The findings describe NGDE across Australia, in general terms including: a description of NGDE students, varieties of NGDE pedagogies, its teachers, administration and an array of educational outcomes. A discussion of the impact of the Commonwealth’s underfunding of NGDE leads to the conclusion that this educational inequity requires immediate short term and considered long term redress. Executive summary - Including the findings of the study ………………… ...... …………………6 A DESCRIPTION OF NON-GOVERNMENT DISTANCE EDUCATION IN AUSTRALIA .. 14 1 Introduction to the report ......................................................................................................... 14 1.1 The purpose and target audience of the project ...............................................................
