1 Principal's Perspective CONTENTS Gratitude, Humility, Collaboration ISSUE 6 30 APRIL 2021 Assistant Principals Andrew Corr, Tegan Knuckey, Julien Escurat School Captains Kartik Iyer, Udeni Undugodage Principal’s Perspective Welcome Back for Term 2 I hope students, staff, their families and friends have had a relaxing and enjoyable holiday after our very busy and successful term one. I welcome all new students and their families to Balwyn High School. Term 2 with our Pillar of Learning – Learning to Think, Know and Understand - is always a very important time that sees many of our students involved in examinations and major assessment tasks that will take place over coming weeks. Many of these onsite events simply did not take place last year due to Remote Learning and COVID restrictions so we are very much planning for the return to more normal arrangements. Deborah Harman Principal Over 650 VCE students will undertake the General Achievement Test (GAT) on Wednesday 9 June and all students will be undertaking a series of School Assessed Coursework (SACs) and ongoing CONTENTS Assessment Learning tasks over the course of the ten weeks of term. All students will benefit from a range of Wellbeing programs that have been planned by our Student Services Team. Year 10 Assistant Principals’ Report students will be finalising their arrangements for their week of Work Experience and there are Senior School Report a large number of Music, Sporting and other co-curricular events that will involve many of our students across all year levels.

Equally we are getting really excited about our ‘Discovering Balwyn’ open night next week as we showcase our marvellous students, programs, opportunities Music and facilities. While our 2020 Virtual Tour, which replaced an Open Night, was praised by many Sport community members, it does not compare when the campus comes alive with presentations and rich discussions. Thank you in advance to Hamish Anderson, Tegan Knuckey and the many staff Mathematics/Science and students who will contribute this year. Visual Arts It will indeed be a very busy time but I am confident that students will be again fully supported by Humanities their teachers and parents to successfully complete all tasks and continue to enjoy the myriad of opportunities that are available outside of the classroom.

Overseen by our International Program Director Grace Yin the students are excellent members of our community who contribute significantly to the academic program as well as the broader school experience. The Program has also contributed significantly to school resources including supporting recent developments such as the Robert Handreck Sports Field and the Deborah Harman Centre for Learning – fantastic facilities that improve the school experience for all of our students. At the commencement of 2021, although many schools were unable to continue with their International Student Program, we were determined to continue to support those students who have committed to Balwyn High School and who have contributed so much to our community. Andrew Corr Throughout 2021 we have continued to run two remote learning classes, at Year 10 and Year 11, Assistant Principal for 23 International Students. All of the students have engaged wonderfully with this program and remain committed to attending Balwyn High School when the border restrictions are such that this is possible.

Middle School Reporting Points - Progress along the Learner Profile Last term, as part of our 'reporting to parents' processes, Reporting Point 1.1 was released. Over weeks 3 - 5 of this term, Reporting Point 1.2 will be released. The structure of these reporting points are identical and there will be many cases where students receive the same judgements on their learning profile from one reporting point to the next. This is not an indication that no progress in their learning behaviour has been made; rather it is an opportunity for a conversation between students and parents/carers regarding what changes have been made and what further changes could be focused on. Each of the statements in the learning profile are observable behaviours that students can work towards engaging in, with teacher assistance, on a consistent basis. These behaviours are important because they will support students to be successful, independent learners once they leave school. Parents/Carers should also note the change in the terms used in the Learning Profile judgements, as indicated below. 1.

  • Driving Recovery Through Industry, Tourism and Sport
    The Hon Martin Pakula MP Minister for Tourism, Sport and Major Events Minister for Industry Support & Recovery Minister for Racing The Hon Jaala Pulford MP Minister for Employment Thursday, 20 May 2021 DRIVING RECOVERY THROUGH INDUSTRY, TOURISM AND SPORT Transforming a 20th century icon of traditional manufacturing in the shadows of Melbourne’s CBD into a future-focused hub of innovation, design and new jobs, tells the story of a state on the path to recovery. And a pledge to build a state-of-the-art home for Australia’s national women’s soccer team – the Matildas – in Melbourne’s north, confirms the Andrews Labor Government’s nation-leading support for equality and fairness. The Victorian Budget 2021/22 will inject $746 million to support Victoria’s ongoing manufacturing and industry success story, boost local jobs, continue the revitalisation of the tourism sector, back the sporting stars who inspire younger generations, and accelerate the Melbourne CBD’s economic and social resurgence. This builds on our massive $945 million investment delivered in last year’s Budget – part of our pledge to support the creation of 400,000 new jobs for Victorians – half of them by 2022. To put Victoria at the forefront of advanced manufacturing, engineering and design, the Labor Government will invest $179.4 million to deliver the first stage of the transformation of the former General Motors Holden site at Fishermans Bend into a global innovation hub. The works will include demolition, site remediation, road and infrastructure upgrades, and construction of the services and amenities critical to creating an investment-ready precinct.

  • Grand Slam Tennis Back at Melbourne Park
    Monday, 8 February 2021 GRAND SLAM TENNIS BACK AT MELBOURNE PARK The Australian Open kicks off in Melbourne today, with strict public health directions in place across the Melbourne Park precinct to protect the efforts of Victorians to combat coronavirus. Minister for Tourism, Sport and Major Events Martin Pakula praised the ongoing work of Victorians to contain coronavirus, which has made it possible for the Grand Slam tournament to proceed. Melbourne Park is divided into three zones around Rod Laver Arena, Margaret Court Arena and John Cain Arena as part of rigorous infection prevention and control measures in place to ensure the safety of players, officials, and the broader Victorian community. Dedicated entry points will apply for each zone and no movement will be permitted between the zones. There will be a daily crowd capacity of 30,000 for the first eight days, with 25,000 per day from the quarter-finals and 12,500 in Rod Laver Arena for the final three days of the tournament. Over the two weeks of the event, this will equate to about half of the average attendance in the past three years. The Australian Open is a key pillar of Victoria’s major event program – last year it contributed an estimated $387 million to the state’s visitor economy. The Victorian Government has invested almost $1 billion over the past 10 years in upgrading and expanding Melbourne Park so that it can continue to host the Open until at least 2039. When completed in time for the 2023 Australian Open, the final stage in the Melbourne Park redevelopment will have created 2,300 full-time jobs through the Andrews Labor Government’s Local Jobs First Policy.
