Peninsula Press Barrenjoey THE PENINSULA PRESS Open Day at Barrenjoey BARRENJOEY HIGH SCHOOL Phone: 9918 8811 5th March, 2021 Term 1 Week 6 FAREWELL Ms ETHERIDGE We will miss you! Dear Parents, Carers and members of the Barrenjoey High School Community, It's a bittersweet feeling this week at Barrenjoey. Our much loved treasure of Barrenjoey High School, Alison Etheridge who works in our Front Office area, will be leaving us at the end of this week. Alison has seen almost all Barrenjoey has to offer, with having spent 27 years of her life dedicated and committed to our school. The relationships she has formed with staff, students, parents and our local community are absolutely amazing - and that's an understatement. We are so proud of her extremely professional work ethic, whilst at the same time ensuring that every student who asks her a question or seeks her assistance, obtains her 100% attention and care. The countless phone calls, assisting parents and staff and work in our sick bay will never be forgotten. Which such experience and longevity at our school, no wonder she is called our 'Oracle​'. Her corporate knowledge will be difficult to replace, however, we have employed Jess Thomas to replace the 'one'. We welcome Jess to our wonderful school and we wish her many years of joy whilst working at our school. Alison is also packing her bags and leaving the local area to move up to sunny Queensland. We know that her moved to Queensland was not an easy decision, however, know it's the right one to be with her family. Alison - we wish you the all the best for the next stage of your journey! You will be very missed at our school. We will ensure we have you on speed dial, just in case we need the answer to life as we know it! Onwards and Upwards our colleague and friend! Mark Robinson Principal OPEN NIGHT 2021 TELL THEM FROM ME - Survey Dear Parents and Carers, TELL THEM FROM ME Student Survey This term, Barrenjoey is taking part in the Tell Them From Me student survey. The survey will provide us with valuable feedback on what our students think about school life, how engaged they are with school and the different ways that teachers interact with them. Schools in Australia and around the world have used the Tell Them From Me survey to help them improve. The survey is completed online and is run by an independent research company, The Learning Bar which specialises in school-based surveys. Staff in schools will not be able to identify individual students from their responses. To ensure confidentiality, participating students will receive a unique username and password. Where fewer than five students respond to a question, the results will be suppressed. The survey typically takes 30 minutes or less to complete and will be administered by the school during normal school hours. Once the surveys are completed by students, reports are prepared and in most cases are available to schools within three business days. As well as schools getting student feedback, the Department of Education, through the Centre for Education Statistics and Evaluation (CESE), has access to data from across NSW and is running a research project to look at state-wide patterns of student wellbeing, engagement and effective teaching practices. The research is looking at how these things impact on student outcomes, including academic performance. Individual students will not be identified in any CESE publications, and all information will be handled in accordance with the relevant privacy legislation. Students’ personal information will not be disclosed by the department to any other person or body other than as required by law. This research will help schools in New South Wales to better understand how to improve student wellbeing and engagement. It will also help teachers and principals discuss what works to improve student outcomes. If, during the survey, your child is uncomfortable, he/she can choose to stop the survey at any time. The majority of questions in the survey can be skipped. In the next week you will receive a Non Consent form and letter. If you do not want your child to take part in the survey, please complete the form and return it to the school. Mark Robinson Principal WELLBEING TERM 1 Wow! What a big term for wellbeing activities. After Covid rules left us being unable to run events last year, we have started 2021 with a bang! Year 7 enjoyed ‘Getting to Know You’ with Miss Hutchinson and Miss Claridge, where they met in small groups to make new friends, play games, complete craft activities and make connections with their year advisor and assistant year advisor. In response to growing concerns and discussions in the community and national media, we are leading discussions and workshops around consent and sexual assault. Year 10 girls completed the Back Off program and the boys completed Secret Blokes Business, aiming to empower them to understand informed consent. These programs have been running at Barrenjoey for the past 20 years, and are always highly impactful. Year 11 and 12 boys completed the Tomorrow Man workshop - Breaking the Man Code, which ‘disrupts old-school male stereotypes and redefines a more positive version of masculinity to live by’ and was exceptionally well received by all the young men in the program. Year 11 and 12 girls completed the Tomorrow Woman Workshop, which aims to ‘unpack the history, expectations and facts of modern day womanhood to support women to reinvent an unapologetic version of femininity for the women of today and tomorrow.’ Again, this was an excellent workshop, where the girls fostered deep connections with each other. In coming weeks, Year 9 will be completing a workshop called Smashed on risky behaviour and LoveBites - a program on respectful relationships and Year 8 will be getting to know Miss Attard and Miss Dickinson in small group workshops. All parents have been emailed a letter detailing the events and costs for wellbeing for 2021. Thank you for your support of wellbeing through prompt payment of the wellbeing contribution.

All money raised goes towards the Leukemia Foundation. The catalyst for the event was Tully Poppleton of Year 7, who has been growing his hair specifically for the event and is going to have it all shaved off. Connor Mason is joining the team (getting a short haircut) and a few more students are getting permission to be involved. The 'Great Shave' will take place at our next school Assembly on Friday 26 March. The SRC will be promoting our team and participants over the coming weeks.

Cricket Davidson Shield Cricket ​On Monday February 22 our Open Cricket team played Killara High School at Hitchcock Park. Despite fielding a side comprising mainly year 7, 8 & 9 students, Barrenjoey performed admirably. Killara batted first and amassed a total of 4 - 311. Sam Pace led the bowling attack , taking 2-10 off 4 overs. Good batting performances from our skipper Oli Kantor- Smith 25, Max Arnold 21, Riley Osborne 14 & Isabella Zovi.

  • MEADOWBANK EDUCATION and EMPLOYMENT PRECINCT SCHOOLS PROJECT - STATE SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION No: SSD-9343
    RE: SUBMISSION - MEADOWBANK EDUCATION and EMPLOYMENT PRECINCT SCHOOLS PROJECT - STATE SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION No: SSD-9343 Thank you for the opportunity to make a submission. I object to the planning application to relocate Marsden High School situated since 1959 (60 years) on an attractive spacious 5.4 hectare site with excellent transport links at 22a Winbourne St, West Ryde (close to Victoria Rd) to part (about 60%, that is approximately 1.98 hectares) of the 3.3 hectare site adjacent to the TAFE NSW Meadowbank Campus at 2 Rhodes St Meadowbank. The application aims to increase built capacity for high school students, ultimately catering for 1,500 students and a 120 place Intensive English Centre (IEC), that is, 1,620 students and provide high quality classrooms and collaborative learning spaces. There is a need for more classrooms for high school students, but the application seeks to crowd 1,620 students into a 1.98 hectare area which is only 36%, or about a third, of the existing Marsden High School site. This does not make sense planning or educational sense. I note that a primary school catering for 1,000 students will be sharing the proposed 3.3 hectare school site, that is, 2,620 school students overall. Adjoining the site is the approximately 6 hectare TAFE campus which will cater for 13,000 to 14,000 students and is subject to a separate State Significant Development Application. In contrast, nearby Epping Boys High School enjoys a 9.15 hectare school site. Essentially I consider the planning for the high school as outlined in the application documents to be flawed as it lacks a holistic approach, lacks context, has a narrow, focus and contains some factual errors.
