Assistant Principal’s Report—June
Nathan Wallace As we get closer to the end of another busy term, I wanted to update our community about some of the ways that our students have and will receive feedback in recent times. NAPLAN Congratulations to our Year 7 and 9 students for the positive approach they applied to this year’s NAPLAN testing. This year we trialled holding the Year 9 tests at Maffra Memorial Hall under exam conditions. The students excelled in being respectful of their peers while giving the tests their best efforts, they also gained valuable experience for future exams that will also be held at the hall. Feedback from both staff and students about the new venue was overwhelmingly positive. Likewise, the year 7 students approached the testing in open classrooms with a growth mindset and are now waiting patiently to receive their feedback. Interestingly, one of the main issues with NAPLAN is by the time students receive their feedback, the feedback is obsolete. We have recently received notification that next year’s NAPLAN testing will be performed online, with feedback being provided sooner. Stay tuned! PROGRESS REPORTS Last week students received feedback about their ORGANISATION, EFFORT, PERSISTENCE, BEHAVIOUR and RESPECT through progress reports. These results can be accessed on COMPASS. Students then reflected on the feedback and set learning goals in their Learn 2 Learn classes. Well done to the majority of students who achieved excellence in their performance or growth in their learning. Students should now be engaging in conversations with their teachers about how to achieve further improvement in their learning. LEARNING TASKS & SEMESTER REPORTS With the semester fast coming to an end, students should be finishing off Common Assessment Tasks (CATs) and receiving continuous feedback about what they are learning and what do they need to do next to progress their learning. This feedback will be collated and reported along with standards from the Victorian Curriculum in the end of semester reports. Semester reports will be published and available for viewing on COMPASS in the last week of term.

CHINA 2018
Cheryl Evans Andrew McIntosh
What seems like a lifetime ago…late last term, 12 Maffra SC students from Years 8 – 12 and 6 Yarram SC students (Years 9 & 10) along with Mr McIntosh, Mrs Evans, Lyn Kerrison (Assistant Principal Yarram SC) and Brett Pedlow (Principal Yarram SC) visited China as part of our schools’ ongoing sister school relationship and ‘Engage with Asia’ program. After an 11 hour non-stop flight we landed in Beijing where we commenced our tour of China. There was excitement in the air as we gathered all of our things and headed off to find our luggage. After getting through customs unscathed...and a quick stop at the toilet (The Happy Room) we caught a train / people mover where we travelled from one side of the Beijing Airport to the other in order to find our guide ‘Shin’ (John) who would accompany us for the next 4 days. It had been snowing in Beijing during the day so the night air was chilly...1 degree Celsius. Coats were pulled out from our suitcases as Shin took us to our fabulous accommodation - The Feitian Grand Hotel...where the students found the banquet breakfasts to be one of the highlights. So where did we go and what did we see… The Pearl Market – Our first chance to try out our bartering skills. Most of the students found a bargain however Mrs Evans’ and a few others would have to work on their bartering skills over the next two weeks. We participated in a lesson in Tai Chi at the Temple of Heaven. The Great Wall – The Great Wall was one of the highlights for all of the students and staff as we rode a gondola to the wall and then after eating lunch on the wall we took in the history and majestic beauty of the Wall as we walked…up and down steps for what seemed like many kilometers. This wonder of the world will be something that our students will never forget. Beijing Zoo & The National Olympic Stadium - We saw some Giant Panda’s in a packed Beijing Zoo and then we visited the Birds Nest – the Olympic Stadium and the Olympic precinct where we sat in the stands and imagined what it would have been like when the Olympics were on. The Forbidden City – This was an amazing place which went on and on…so many beautiful temples and buildings. Tiananmen Square – Due to a conference being on we only saw this from afar. Everyone tried using Chinese yoyos after taking a rickshaw to see one of the last remaining traditional family homes. Drum tower – saw us climb the steepest steps for the whole trip. Various Markets & Bazaars – Where our bartering skills slowly improved. Summer Palace – and a Dragon boat ride Bullet trains – travelling to our destinations at 360kms per hour. Xi’an City Wall – We rode on the top of the wall which wrapped around the old city for 13kms…some students, Xander and Kerr, did two laps…lapping Mrs E who took in the sights at a leisurely pace. The Terracotta Warriors and Horses – A fascinating experience and to think that there are still so many pits that still havel not been dug up. Changshu - Visited our Sister School – ‘Changshu – Experimental Middle School’ – Our students attended and participated in various classes including a music and an art class. Museums – We visited many museums where we were immersed in the amazing history of China. Disneyland – Shanghai – A cold day and lots of lining up…The ride of choice – ‘Triton’ Shanghai – Shopping and Markets where we did our last minute shopping prior to coming home.
Throughout the trip our accommodation was fantastic and we were looked after by various guides in each major city we visited. On behalf of Andrew McIntosh and I we would like to congratulate our students on their exemplary behaviour whilst we were away. All of the students had a fabulous time and have formed new friendships with not only with students whom they travelled with from MSC but also with the students and staff from Yarram SC. We look forward to visiting Yarram Secondary College next term when they host their sister school and we look forward to a visit from our Sister School in 2019.

China trip 2018
The trip was a great experience learning new things and meeting new people. For example, this year we went with some of the kids from Yarram which was one of the best parts. Getting to know them and becoming great friends. Not only making friends with them but also talking to our tour guides and getting to know the people from Maffra as well. One of the most interesting things we did was going to the school over there. While we were there we went to two different schools seeing how different the two schools where to each other and how different they were to our school as well. Overall the two best things we did were go to the Great Wall of China and the market. The market was good because we could see all the different things people where selling and you got to talk to people and talk about the prices. The great wall was good because we got to go for a walk and look at all the views and talk to our new friends and take photos. Jade Leighton.

Science News In2Science eMentoring Program:
Kristen Raine For students who enjoy Science and/or would like to explore the possibilities in studying Science, there is an excellent opportunity in the In2Science eMentoring Program. This is a 10 week program that involves students at Maffra SC regularly connecting (via a video conference link) with a University student studying Science. The program has been running at Maffra SC for a number of years, and many students have benefitted by gaining insights into what studying science at university is like; by discussing their schoolwork; by learning study tips and by improving oral communication skills. Expressions of interest are being sought from students in Years 8, 9, 10 or 11 who would like to participate in the program in Semester 2. Please contact Kristen Raine or email [email protected]
John Monash Science School Rural Exchange Program
Congratulations to Joe Capurso and Narelle Brown who have been successful in their applications for a place in the Regional Science Exchange program at the John Monash Science School – a specialist secondary school for science, mathematics and associated technologies.
Open to Year 10 students with a passion, interest and talent for science and mathematics, the exchange will occur for 3 weeks in Term 3 and will be a wonderful opportunity for Joe and Narelle to experience hands-on learning in a variety of scientific disciplines. As part of the program, Joe and Narelle will be provided with homestay accommodation with a family connected to John Monash Science School.
www.maffrasc.vic.edu.au (03) 5147 1790 Bill Cane Court, Maffra Vic. 3860 MSC School Newsletter: June 2018 Edition Student Leadership
This year a new approach has been taken to establish student leadership teams in the college. Each year level has their own team who is supported by a teacher. Teams would love more members so if you are interested in joining, speak to your year level coordinator or your School Captains, Michael and Adelle. Avon House Captains: Tye Kors and Each year level team has selected year level captains to represent them at whole Amy Dunn. Vice captains: Carley Einsiedel and Ella Bailey school student leadership meetings. These meetings are held every fortnight by the school captains who represent the year 11/12 team. This makes everyone aware of what other year levels are up to and helps keep the student leadership goals consistent within the school. The Year 7 team had a great term one, supporting the day against bullying by putting together a presentation on what bullying is and conducting a role play. Currently, they are looking at starting up a food drive amongst the staff rooms to support the breakfast club that runs each week on a Friday morning. Great interest has allowed the Year 8’s to form a strong team and hold regular meetings. The Year 8 team is led by captains Angus Neaves and Sarah Dekkers who are valuable members of the whole school student leadership team. The Macalister House Captains: Jordi group is passionate about getting a bike shed at the college in the hope that it McQuillen and Kane Bennett Vice captains: Sam Hyatt and may encourage more people to ride to school. They are currently looking for Adrienne Hume some creative ideas for fundraising. The Year 8 team also recently organised a round robin dodgeball competition for year 7 and 8 students. Despite the team visiting classes and promoting the competition, it wasn’t as successful as expected. The Year 8 team are working hard to keep the competition continuing as they believe it is a great way to bring together students and have some fun at lunchtime. Unfortunately there has been a halt to student leadership in Year 9 because most members are currently at the School for Student Leadership (Snowy River Campus). They will be returning with great ideas for the team. The Year 9 captains are Chloe Williamson and Alera Leon-Robbins. The Year 10 team is led by Joe Capurso and Narelle Brown who have been regularly attending whole school student leadership meetings. Earlier this term, the team held a casual day to buy security cameras to place in the F-wing corridor. $505 was raised and the cameras have now been installed. The group of students that attended the School for Student Leadership last year are still continuing their Community Learning Project to refurbish the F-wing toilets. Currently these students have raised around Freestone House Captains: Mollie Huts and Jack Ronalds $7000 through various fundraisers. A meeting will be held very soon where the Vice captains: Finlea Landy students will make a list of things they want to change in the toilets. They will then and Jake Giles begin to get quotes. All students are very excited about the refurbishment of the F- wing toilets! The combined Year 11 and 12 student leadership team have been working hard to organise this years ‘Senior Years Prom’. Students have been designing and printing tickets as well as organising the venue, food, security, decorations, themes, protocols and activities for the night. The team is comprised of school captains, house captains, arts captains and other passionate students. Thompson House Captains: Kit Baker and Jack McIntosh The Arts Captains have begun meetings supported by Ms Bramstedt and have come Vice captains: Kerr Scully up with a list of ideas. The team want to run drama workshops for students, have Paxton-White (absent) and Jazmine Wade (absent) musical performances and run an open mic night. They also want to do student-run workshops for year 6’s as part of their transition to the college in the hope that more people will get involved in the art and music faculty. Congratulations to the following students who have been selected as captains:
Arts Captains: Sam Fankhauser and Abby Collins

Yr 10 Matters Federation Uni Trip On Friday 11th May, both Mr Lisiecki and I accompanied the 10C2 students to Federation University for a day where students experienced life at a University campus. For those who did not go to the university it was a valuable day as many of the Federation Training takes place at this venue.
Students participated in a study session, a Great Race to familiarise themselves with the University campus, had a Q&A session with current students as well as experienced a business lecture.
Once again it was a pleasure to accompany the year 10 students who were great ambassadors for Maffra Secondary College.
Mock Interviews On Friday 4th May, 40 year 10 students participated in a mock interview as part of their 10C2 course work. The aim of the interview was to provide a real life experience where the students had to prepare resumes and covering letters, dress appropriately and actually answer questions relating to the career path they wish to pursue.
We would like to thank the following individuals for their assistance with the interviews. David Ward (AGA), Shannon Jewell (APM), Wing Commander Sharyn Bolitho (Defence Force), Howard Stobo (Skillinvest), Brad Evans (formally 545 Primary School), Nathan Smith (Duart’s Homestead), Gerald Adams (Adams Accounting), Brad Neilson (Tinamba Hotel), Michael Roberts (DEDJTR), Liz Bell (Gippsland Times), Katy Costigan (Bairnsdale Hospital) and Brenton Dinsdale (Gippsport)
The feedback from these employers was not only positive; it allowed students to focus on areas where improvement could be directed. All the students are to be congratulated as they conducted themselves in a professional manner. The morning was a great success for all involved.
Assisting with Primary School Sport We have had a number of mainly year 9 and 10 students assist with both the Sale and District and the Heyfield and District Winter Sports Carnivals over the past two weeks. I would just like to share with you some comments we have received regarding their efforts All of the Maffra Secondary AFL umpires were extraordinary. They showed confidence with their umpiring, they were reliable, they were responsible and were certainly exemplary in the way they represented Maffra SC. – Lucas Mowat – teacher Maffra Primary School The students (netball umpires) were exceptional in terms of attitude, behaviour and their expertise. They "made our day" (along with the sunshine)! Janelle Hesz- teacher Maffra Primary Last Friday I convened the Sale and District, Winter Sport Football Competition in Maffra. Twelve of your students were in attendance as our umpires for the day. I just wanted to let you know how fabulous they were and how grateful we were for their assistance on the day. It was a big day of umpiring for them and they had little to no break in between the games. Numerous parents, coaches and teachers commented on the great job they did. They umpired fairly and appropriately and were a great example for the primary school students. They were lovely to interact with and well mannered. - Grace Duffield – Sport Coordinator - St Thomas’ Sale As usual the students were fantastic, we couldn’t have ran the day without them. They were all happy to do what was needed/asked. The boys stayed around the footy for the day and were either scoring, field umpiring, boundary umpiring or goal umpiring. They made sure teams were ready to play and kept to the schedule (that can be a hard task!). The girls were terrific too, either scoring or umpiring the netball when needed. If you could pass on our thanks to them again, it would be greatly appreciated. Damien Hogan commented on their behaviour on the bus, he was very impressed. Kellie Hole – Teacher – St Michael’s Heyfield Well done to Charlotte Keifer, Narelle Brown, Lindsay Coridas, Shayla McNamara, Meg Marshall, Marnie Oldham, Jana Hennig, April Burton, John Kemp Booker, Jasper Connolly, Aaron Atkinson, Ryan Marshall, Ken Stracey, Andrew Veale, Max Tyson, Max Hague, Tom Marchesi, Tom Lee, Mitch Dekkers, Bevan O’Doherty

Inter school badminton Maffra Secondary College intermediate boys and girls badminton teams participated at Yarram Secondary College on the 7th May. Displaying a keen interest in the sport, we fielded 2 boys and a girls’ team this year. The girls team participated enthusiastically against Yarram, Traralgon and Sale College however their opposition proved far too strong with the girls losing the majority of their games. To their credit, our girls displayed with de- termination and a fine spirit, The boys A team defeated Yarram, Traralgon and Maffra B however they found Sale College a challenge in the final games, going down 4 games to 2 games. The B team acquitted themselves very well defeating both Yarram and Traralgon then they gave Maffra A a run for their money in several games. The students represented Maffra Secondary College in an exemplary manner by displaying effort, sportsmanship and persistence. Well done!

Students from across the college were involved in a joint effort to raise money for the Cancer Council in May at this year’s Biggest Morning Tea. The event, run by the Maffra Cancer Council Group, was held at the Maffra Bowls Club. Students from Year 7 prepared decorations for the event, by painting huge teapot and tea cup cut-outs under the guidance of Ms Healy. Our VCAL students took to the lathes to cut the shapes. A group of Year 10 students participated in the morning tea for their community service by helping serve tea, cakes and food at the event. Thanks to Emma Blake, Jessica Bower, Maddie Clark, Abbi Cozzi, Jenna Ross and Chelsea Smith for representing the college so well. Many of the attendees were very impressed by how professional, kind and courteous you all were. Marni Bosman-Hughes, Yr 11, wowed the audience with her sweet tunes on the guitar. Lisa Manning donated some of her hand made scarves and bags to sell at the event. It was truly a joint effort. The Biggest Morning Tea in Maffra raised just under $1500 for cancer research. I would like to thank all those students involved, as well as teachers Ms Clancy, Ms Healy, Mr Johnson and Ms Bramstedt, for supporting the event. I would also like to thank Deirdre Ralph and the volunteers at the Maffra Cancer Council for allowing us to be involved. With so many dear friends and family being afflicted with cancer, our fight against this terrible disease has never been so important. If students or families are interested in being involved in future events, please see Mrs Lambert at the College.
