1 What Is Tinikling Dance? Harmony Night 2019 An IndependentAn Independent Public Public School School ge Colle TERM 1 ISSUE 2 2019 The Newsletter of Gilmore What is Tinikling dance? A dance that mirrors the innate grace, joy and resilience. Resilience As we go through our lives, we may experience set back, failures, sorrow and pains. Just as the bamboo poles may hit our foot, hurt and may even cause us to fall to the ground, we should learn to shake off the pain, stand up and continue to dance through the music. To be resilient is not to give up, to have Faith and to focus on the blessings of life ahead. Harmony Night 2019 Celebrating with our wonderful community 1 1 From The Principal It is difficult to believe that Term 1 has almost drawn In the same way that teachers make long term plans to a close, given that it seems only yesterday we to ensure they cover the curriculum and to make sure threw open the gates to welcome our students back that events such as excursions, the Athletics Carnival for 2019. and school performances don’t impact on student Yet this is the truth, as we reflect on a brilliant results, I would urge our students to use this pause in Term where we welcomed another large group classes to make sure that the plans and hopes they of Year 7 students, celebrated the enormous and had for 2019 are still on track. If they aren’t, we have unprecedented success of our 2018 Year 12 ATAR 115 staff ready to assist and get them back on target students, celebrated Harmony Night, held a faction when we return on Tuesday 30 April. swimming carnival, painted the College, hosted Term 1 this year has seen the publication of two two weeks of OLNA testing, held student and elder important documents, the 2018 Annual Report forums, observed ANZAC Day, welcomed a new and the Gilmore College Business Plan 2018- group of Engineering School Based Trainees and 2020.

The 2018 Annual Report gives an insight beyond After all of that our staff and students deserve the regular newsletters of our school’s performance a two week break. I call it a “break” rather than a across a range of domains. The report is an analysis “holiday”, because the end of Term 1 only marks the of how well we’ve performed against our stated half way point of first Semester. I’d like to remind all Business Plan targets, in areas such as student of our students that a two week break from classes academic achievement, student attendance, staff is a great opportunity to recharge their batteries, development, student wellbeing and how we manage relax and have some fun, while at the same time our finances. prioritising catching up on work missed, homework The Business Plan 2018-2020 marks another new and assessments upcoming and revising everything beginning for our young school, as we courageously that’s been taught in Term 1. and optimistically enter our second decade with goals As a school we have built a solid foundation for that will enable sustained academic success for our 2019, but no sooner do we return than NAPLAN, students. Put simply we have three priorities in this Externally Set Tasks (Year 12 General Studies) and Business Plan: Examinations are upon us. 2 1. Maximising student learning through the provision of high quality teaching. 2. Improving Literacy and Numeracy across the school. 3. Creating the learning environment required for everyone to succeed. What do we hope to achieve in this planning cycle? We want our results to reflect those of similar schools and already we are seeing them head in that direction. We also want to see students succeed across the school rather than in their niche areas of interest and have set targets throughout our curriculum offerings in a bid to track this. How will we know whether we’ve had success? The school has recently been informed that we will be assessed and reviewed by the Department of Education during first Term 2020. This review will be a fabulous opportunity to take stock of the progress we’ve made since 2008. I am quietly confident that this review will show that educational outcomes for Kwinana students are strengthening all the time and I would urge all of our school community to engage with these two important documents. We look forward to seeing all of our students again in second term and helping them to be their best. Rohan Smith Principal Chambers of Minerals (CME) Inspiring Girls Forum Gilmore College was invited to the Chambers of Minerals (CME) Inspiring Girls Forum, fully sponsored by ALCOA, held at the RAC Arena on Friday 29 March. Three young women attended the event: Emily Brown in our Metals and Engineering Program, Takayawa Halofaki and Sheen Bautista both in our Process Operations Program. The girls received great information about each company’s recruitment process and what it’s like for females in non- traditional roles in Industry. The whole event was incredibly inspiring and our girls left with a sense of confidence that they will achieve their goals to someday work in the Oil, Gas and Resources sector. Patrice Kilpatrick Coordinator - Industry & Enterprise A huge thank you to our sponsors, ALOCA, for this fabulous opportunity. 3 A Note from the Music Classroom The instrumental students visited the Perth Concert Hall with three parents to watch the Western Australia Symphony Orchestra. We spoke to two professional viola players about what life was like as a professional musician and then watched two hours of rehearsal. The orchestra was working on the Mozart Symphony and it was amazing to see how the conductor worked with the section leaders and musicians to make the piece perfect. Congratulations to all Concert Band students who performed our Pi song, the first of many songs we will be creating this year. Concert Band is still meeting regularly every Tuesday 2.40-3.40pm.

The success they accomplished is a reflection of the hard work and dedication exhibited in their three years at Gilmore College. Turn to page 22 for more information. 1 1 Needless to say, it was less a message about rugby and sport and more a message about how everyone, no matter their walk of life or calling/responsibility, has the chance to show leadership and shape the culture of their surrounds. If you have time over the summer period to read a book, I would thoroughly recommend this one, whether you’re a rugby fan or not. A full list of award winners among our Year 12 students will be published in the final Newsletter for 2019 in December. For now, congratulations to our ATAR Dux Tanatswa Chafa, our General Studies Dux Frency Carino and our VET dux Marcus Davies of the KIC School Based Engineering and Metals Traineeship program. Finally, I am sure that the rest of our staff, students and parents will be acutely aware of just how much of 2019 is left to run. I would like to urge everyone to think about what can be done over the next five weeks to positively impact on your results that comprise your final school report for the year. My recent Assembly speech centred around goal setting and the link between two of our SOAR values Organised and Aspirational. I reminded all of our students that there is still time to set short and medium term goals that will assist in raising that C Grade to a B, that B to an A and even that D or E up to a C grade.

    MEDIA RELEASE: 13 January 2021 Susan Hoerlein, Public Affairs & Communications Specialist P (08) 9215 0733 l M 0422 553 343 l E [email protected] Student Health Professional Program an Accessible Path to the Future Fees will be waived for 4 students participating in the 2021 Future Health Professionals Program, doubling the accessibility for all Western Australian students to get a taste of life in the health sciences. Thirty Western Australian students from years 11 and 12 will take part in the week-long intensive program from 18 – 22 January, with practical workshops at Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital and lectures and workshops at the Harry Perkins Institute of Medical Research (Nedlands). The Future Health Professionals Program gives students exposure to a range of career options within the medical science sector, to expand their view of what a career in this field involves. Over a 45-hour week, students will learn from clinical mental health practitioners, genetic counsellors, epidemic response professionals, nurses, paramedics, sanitation and hygiene specialists, and surgeons, among others. Kalien Selby, Chief Executive Officer Scitech, claims the remarkable program demonstrates how practical and credible exposure to career opportunities can have long-lasting impact on student’s enthusiasm and confidence. “We have seen time and again how students are empowered when they can make informed choices for their learning and career pathways, often identifying new opportunities they may not have previously considered.” Ms Selby said. “Scitech’s unique position as Western Australia’s leading science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) engagement organisation enables us to create an authentic link between school and industry, and we are proud to partner with Sir Charles Gairdner hospital, one of Australia's leading teaching tertiary hospitals, to provide this rich experience.” Ms Selby continued.
