    Newsletter 8, December 2014

    Newsletter 8, December 2014 Mark Dempster, Mathematics From the Principal... Peter Splitek, Coordinator Science It is hard to believe that the 2014 school year is over. Reflecting back, I am extremely pleased with the achievements of our students. Our Year 8-11 Awards Ceremony highlighted our students’ incredible commitment to achieve outstanding results. It also highlighted how community minded our students are with a huge number winning awards for school service. While the year was coming to an end for senior students, Year 8 and 9 students continued working hard to prepare for their important end of year presentations. The Year 8 Show Case held in the George Cresswell Hall on Tuesday 9 December 2014 was extremely successful Rob Handley, Mathematics with over 90% of parents attending their child's presentation. Many parents commented on Daphne White, Home Economics what a wonderful experience it was for them to listen to their child discussing their learning and the highlights of their year. Similarly, the Year 9 Presentations were outstanding and displayed the huge array of challenging activities students participate in during the year. Every year our teachers work extremely hard to support students by delivering high quality learning experiences. In Week 7 this term, staff from all Learning Areas shared the work of their Professional Learning Team (PLT) with their colleages; what they have achieved and what their next steps will be in 2015. The PLTs further highlight our teachers’ commitment Karin Wichmann, LOTE Teacher John McKenzie, HASS Teacher to continue to learn together and find new and exciting ways to engage and support our students to achieve their absolute best.

Our crew was: bow – Ben Canham, 2 – Jack Kelly, 3 – Mitch Hooper, stroke – Angus Maloney, coach David Pincus. All credit to the crew and coach on such a great performance.

    DECEMBER 2015 NEWS Above – Mercantile’s Open Women’s 8 on the way to a course record at the 2015 Head of the Yarra – photo Tristan Shipsides Mercantile members still dominate selection trial invitation list Published 20th December 2015 Rowing Australia has published the invitation list to the National Selection Regatta #2 and also the final Senior Selection Trials in February. Mercantile members comprise 17% of those participating, more than any other Club. Most of these members are from the women’s sweep and sculling group. Given the number of Mercs sweep rowers and that Australia has not qualified any women’s sweep crews, we hold our breath to see whether the women’s sweep group can show the selectors that they are Olympic finalist standard and worthy of attempting qualification. There were some great performances from our members in the first trials. Of particular note was Jen Cleary who took number two spot in women’s sculling. The Mercs members still in the squad are: Fiona Albert Sarah Banting Katrina Bateman Jennifer Cleary Madeline Cordner David Crawshay Addy Dunkley-Smith Josh Dunkley-Smith Josh Hooper Hannah Lewis John Linke Jess Morrison Sophie Sutherland Charlotte Sutherland Maddy Thomas Katrina Werry James Wilson Volunteers sought to tow boat trailer Published 6th December 2015 We seek volunteers to drive home the Club’s boat trailer from both the NSW Championships and National Championships. The Club will even fly you up and accommodate you. Please contact Jenny Fraumano on 0438 324370 or email her on [email protected]. Mercantile Under 21 and Under 23 rowers have fun at Carrum Regatta Published 6th December 2015 Our younger rowers endured the 35 degree heat at Nagambie to win many races and get good racing experience.
