YEAR 12 PREPARATION

Year 12 students took part in a two day learning conference on February 6 and 7. Thursday's event involved an excursion to the Summit, Trafalgar East to participate in a range of challenging and team problem solving activities. Highlights including walking on a bed of nails, handling a snake, swinging in pairs on a 30 metre giant swing, laying on a wire 10 metres off the ground, negotiating through a cave in the dark and working in teams to complete a river challenge and a bush challenge. The over-riding message from the day was setting a "TARGET", "STRETCH BEYOND" and then "SUPER STRETCH" Friday's session was devoted to focussing on improvement. Key note speaker, Hannah Farah spoke at length about being good and getting better. Her focus was

largely on habits creating outcomes, so changing habits will result in changing outcomes. Students were exposed to the Looking After Our Mates program, a VicRoads DrinkDrive initiative. Staff presentations from Mrs. Ridsdale and Mrs. Park focussed on dealing with stress, and managing time, including study, work completion and preparation for exams. Over the next week, students will complete a survey on their thoughts of the program so it may be rened and improved for the future. Eric Bott

Getting Ready for Year 12 Summit/Fountain Room
It was great to see the Year 12 students challenging themselves and supporting one another through a range of adventure and team building activities at the Summit on Thursday 6th February. The level of encouragement and support for one another was apparent and is a good sign of the way they will respond to the challenges of VCE. Day two at the Fountain Room at the Arts Centre was a little more sedate with a selection of speakers and activities aimed at getting organised and motivated for Year 12 with one eye rmly on next year and the future that beckons beyond school. Thank you to the Year 12 Team and in particular Eric Bott and Graeme Miller for their organisation and home group teachers Robyn Ridsdale, Tavis Longmuir, Jan Park and Tracey Collie for their help over the two days. a powerful speaker and his story of his search for the truth about what happened to 150 of our soldiers in World War One is a compelling story. A big thanks for Tim Whitford and RSL members Ron Blair and Noel Tucker for helping organise the talk.

Common Assessment Tasks (CATs)

One of the key tasks we have set for ourselves this year is to get all students to complete all Common Assessment Tasks (CATs) in Years 7-9 or School Assessed Coursework (SACs) in Years 10-12. These assessments are the compulsory part of the curriculum and are used to generate achievement levels for AusVELS and VCE grades. The other key use of these assessments is to identify students who need extra support or those students who are not making progress as well as being feedback for students on how well their learning is progressing. Over the course of 2014 teachers will be asking students to attend catch-up classes or after school homework classes when they have not completed set work within the timelines given. On these occasions parents will be contacted and your support in getting students to complete these assessments will be invaluable. In cases where students still do not complete CATs or SACs a support group meeting will need to be arranged with the student, parents and teachers to determine what extra support is needed to help the student to complete the set assessments. More detail about the processes that will be used to encourage students through this process will be presented in future editions of Worth Reading. The key message for all students is that learning at Warragul Regional College is not by invitation, we expect all students to learn. Rob Juratowitch Principal

Guest Speakers
Over the past two weeks the English/Humanities team have organised two wonderful guest speakers for students in Years 8 and 9. In Year 8 the students were given an interactive presentation by the CFA Rapid Response team. Students enjoyed listening about re behaviour and the CFA responses. The timing of the presentation was obviously very important given the recent res throughout our local area. Thank you to Trevor Cox for organising the CFA to speak to our Year 8s. Our second speaker, Tim Whitford, gave a presentation to Year 9 students about the lost diggers of Fromelles. Tim is

School Photos
School photos were taken on Monday the 17th, this week. As in recent years, Aussie School Photos was the photographer. Thank you to all parents and guardians that supported their children in preparation for the day. It was good to see nearly all of our students smartly dressed and in full uniform. For many of us, school photos are an important and treasured memento of our time at school and are important for school records. Class photos in particular are highly valued by students and their families for years to come and I'm sure when you look back on your own photos you will appreciate the extra care individuals have taken in their presentation and appearance on the day.

Ordering your photos

Students should have received a pre-payment photo pack that was distributed at Home Group Meetings on the 10th February. This should have been returned with payment to the photographer on the day. If however, you forgot to send payment along with your child or were yet to make a decision regarding the purchase of school photos there is still an opportunity to order online. Photographs were taken of all students that attended on the day, for school administrative purposes. Each student was given a unique on-line log-on code on photo day, by the photographers. www.shchoolphoto.com.au Parents/ Guardians can use this code to go on-line to view the images taken, choose the image preferred and create a package to suit personal needs for content and price. Please note; the service the photographers provide is directly between families and the photographers. All enquiries regarding payments and services should be made directly to Aussie Customer service. Ph: (03) 9707 6653.

To ensure photos are included in the bulk delivery to the school, online orders should be made within 14 days after photo day. No order form: Students who were unable to place an order on photo day will be sent a PORTRAIT PROOF photo together with a second chance order form, with school photo delivery. Parents can then place a late order via the Aussie School Photos website www.aussieschoolphoto.com Shared parenting situations: Aussies ordering system has been programmed to accept multiple orders for any one student. If required additional order forms can be collected from the general ofce, completed, and returned to Aussie Photos directly. All multiple orders will be delivered to the student with school delivery or marked hold at ofce if the package is to be collected by a second parent. Our data tells us that many of our school community use Compass on a regular basis, while differing in frequency. Because we recognise that the best learning occurs when there is good communication and strong partnerships between parents, student and the school, we will continue to improve and expand the services provided through Compass throughout the year.

Compass Information Night 18th March

To encourage and support parents/guardians in their use of this system we will be running an Information Night on the 18th March, beginning at 7:30pm in the Flexible Learning Centre. The information night will cover the basic functions of Compass in detail and highlight some new tools. Technicians will be on hand to assist any parents with password difculties. Compass Parent Portal provides live, up to date information regarding your child's progress and we encourage as many parents as possible to make a commitment to check the service at regular intervals that suit you circumstances and your access to the web. Smartphone users might also like to look at the Compass App which is available to download for free.

Introducing Compass to new and returning users

The Compass Parent Portal
As you are probably well aware, Warragul Regional College makes extensive use of a internet based communication tool known as Compass School Manager. This system is provided free of charge to all students and their families and provides vital communication between families and the school by giving parents/guardians the online ability to: View your childs timetable Report and monitor absences Change contact details View school notices Email Teachers Book parent teacher interviews Print excursion notices View and print student reports Monitor student learning tasks.

Trafc in and around the school grounds

A number of concerns have been raised by staff, students and members of the community regarding the ow of trafc and pedestrians in and around the school at pick-up and drop-off times. While, thankfully there have been no injuries there have been reports of some worrying behaviours of both pedestrians and drivers. The principal team has been observing the ow of trafc over the last week and have noted that the period of congestion is related to a small time period immediately prior to and immediately after bell times. After this initial rush, trafc returns to more manageable levels. There are no sure solutions to this issue, however all parties have a role in insuring an incident is avoided. To students: We remind you of your responsibility to use appropriate crossing points entrances and exits when travelling to and from school. We ask that where possible you avoid walking between parked cars as this makes you very difcult to see and we encourage you not to run onto the road to board vehicles not yet parked. To drivers: If possible and time permits, consider dropping off and picking up your child/ren 5 mins earlier/later to reduce the trafc ow at peak times, observe road signage and speed limits. Please be patient in pick up lines, and do not weave in and around trafc and avoid driving through parking spaces in the middle of car parks. Finally please remember the behaviour of younger children in particular is not always predicable. Cameron Nicholls Assistant Principal

User names/Passwords
New students to the college will shortly receive a letter containing a unique user name and password to access this site. We recommend that you change/personalise your password when you rst log on, and also check whether the personal details recorded for you are correct (address, phone numbers, etc.) For parents of existing students feel free to contact the school if you have forgotten your password.

Communicating with the school.

Warragul Regional College recognises that the use of computer based and internet services are not the preferred method of communication for some people. As a school we will continue to provide information through a range of mediums such as standard mail, telephone, SMS and email. Unlike traditional mail, one of the strengths of Compass is that we are able to gather information regarding who has used the service. This is important in assessing our communication strategies and determining whether or not people are accessing the relevant information regarding the learning of their child/ren.

Its not okay to be away ... nor to be late to school
Regular school attendance is a prerequisite for improved participation and educational outcomes and is the responsibility of everyone in the school and wider community. We know that students with irregular and poor attendance often struggle at school and the value they receive from their education is greatly diminished as a result. When kids miss school, not only is their academic progress impeded, forcing them to catch up on missed work (which some never do), they often miss important interactions with their peers which can compound issues of social isolation and low self-esteem. One of the most important things you can do to ensure your child has a bright future is to make sure he or she goes to school every dayand gets there on time. It sounds simple, but its true. The correlation between school attendance and childrens achievement levels is well-established. The more time kids spend at school, the more likely they are to experience school success. Its now commonplace for children to stay away from school for reasons that would have been unheard of just twenty years ago. These include staying away to celebrate their own or a siblings birthday; being absent because they stayed up too late watching television; going shopping for clothes; an extended long weekend; and kids not wanting to take part in a sports day or special school event. This type of absenteeism sends a strong message to kids that parents dont really value learning or their childrens school experiences. Australian kids only spend 15% of their total time at school. They spend more time asleep than they do at school. So we need to maximise every day to get full value. That means turning up to school every day, on time. As a parent: Commit to sending kids to school every day. Make sure kids arrive at school and class on time. Inform the school when they are away, sending medical certicates and other evidence of genuine absence. Consider catching-up on missed work. Make kids who are away stay in their bedroom that is where ill kids should be. If a child misses 15 periods, equivalent to 3 school days in a semester with unapproved absences he/she will be spoken to by their Home Group teacher. If a child misses 30 periods, equivalent to 6 school days in a semester with unapproved absences he/she will be interviewed by their Year Level Team Leader and parents will be notied. If a child misses 45 periods, equivalent to 9 school days in a semester with unapproved absences a parent interview will be required with the Year Level Team Leader. If a student misses 60 periods, equivalent to 12 school days in a semester with unapproved absences a student support group meeting will be arranged. This meeting will involve the student, parents, Year Level Team Leader, Student Wellbeing Manager and a member of the college Principal Team.

Attendance
We saw a large improvement in our attendance data in 2013 due to the introduction of this policy and the use of our COMPASS attendance package and of course the support from the parent body. We thank you for your ongoing support in this very important aspect of your childs schooling.

Thriving at school
What are some of the main issues that children face at school, which parents may not be aware of or consider? I think we forget just how social and emotional school is. Children are placed in age-cages, where one day can determine which 'year' you are in, who you mix with and what you will learn. Children need to mix and feel connected. This isn't always going to be a smooth and happy journey. Learning can be difcult learning social skills and emotional intelligence means there can be upset. But they are just as important in the development of kids as learning the traditional 3Rs Reading, 'Riting and 'Rithmetic. These new 3Rs Respect, Responsibility and Relationships - are important for our kids' futures. In classes, parents sometimes forget that their kids are being cared for by adults who are neither family nor close friends and these people are professionals. Sometimes we forget just how much experience of children our quality teachers have they have a history of hundreds of children. Where parents see the world of their child, teachers see the world of 'their' children. I also feel that parents are much more focused on 'success', which can be based on how my kid is doing against other kids in the same class. You hear some parents say "he has to catch up, he is slipping behind". This makes learning out to be a race. But it isn't. A plant that grows quicker doesn't have a better ower. What are the personal qualities that can help a child succeed at school? This is really entering into the world of emotional intelligence the personal growth and development of

a good and happy learner. These qualities are not just for school they are for life; after all that is what we are really trying to develop in school. This is the domain of social emotional well-being. We nd that the real qualities are the new 3Rs: Respect - Everyone has the right to be respected. Respect comes from appreciating something for what it is not what it can do for us. Respect means having regard for others by accepting that other people are different but just as important as you are. Respecting yourself means that you stand up for yourself and don't let yourself be talked into doing things that you know are wrong or make you feel uncomfortable. Responsibilities - We must take responsibility for our actions - for our learning, for possessions, for following rules, and for being kind. We become responsible by gaining satisfaction in knowing that what we do is appreciated. Parents must respect that schools have to assert rules to ensure all kids act responsibly. Relationships - Once respect and responsibilities are understood, good relationships follow easily. This is probably the most important element for happiness in a life. The most important relationship we should strengthen is the one with ourselves. How we relate to 'us' is fundamental for social and emotional well-being. For it is this relationship that offers us the greatest platform on which to build success, to increase our condence, to tackle change.

year 7 - 9 reaDing program

This year the English Domain is introducing a new reading program for all students in Years 7 to 9, designed to specically improve each students reading comprehension. Once a week as students have their timetabled reading session in the Library, they will start the class by reading a selected card from a given Literacy box. The reading comprehension level of every student has been determined by analysing test results. Warragul Regional College is the rst school in this area to utilise this program and student progress and engagement is being continually monitored. These literacy cards feature imaginative, informative and persuasive texts from a wide range of genres across the Australian National Curriculum. Throughout the year students will work their way through a Literacy box which incorporates comprehension, word study and grammar questions in a multiple choice format. Separate answer cards allow the students to work and progress at their own rate while keeping a record for their own and teacher reference. Once the student has read their card, answered the questions and self -corrected, they will be able to choose a novel from our extensive collection. We encourage all students to read widely and borrow a book or two to take home for recreational reading purposes. As well as the students undertaking a reading program at school, there are ways families can help students build upon their reading skills at home. Some easy ways to practice reading skills at home are: Reading the newspaper together and discussing current events Discussing books your child is studying at school. It is always helpful to have a knowledge of the novel Playing board games such as scrabble Hearing your child read Joining the local library Kay Frost Penny Jewell Curriculum Leader 7-9 Library/Resource Manager

Uniform
The College has a strict uniform policy in place and it is expected that all students follow this policy. I seek parent support in this issue to ensure that your son/daughter wears the appropriate uniform to and from school. In the future students who continually attend school out of uniform may be sent home to change into the correct uniform. We have had a very good start to the year in terms of uniform compliance and we thank the parent body for their support in this area. The main issue with uniform at this time is the number of students who continue to wear incorrect footwear to school. The school dress code and uniform policy states that black leather school shoes or boots (girls shoes must be of T-Bar design at the very least) must be worn. Could we please ask all parents to insist that the correct shoes are worn to school? If you are having nancial difculty we can offer you support through the secondary schools relief fund. Please contact our Chaplain Mrs Donna Hunter to organise this support. Les Ponton Assistant Principal

Guest speaKer at WRC Finding the lost diggers of Fromelles

A guest speaker from the Shrine of Remembrance Gippslander Tim Whitford recently held Year 9 students from Warragul Regional College spellbound with his presentation about the Battle of Fromelles. This conict on the Western Front in France on July 19th, 1916, saw Australia suffer its heaviest losses from a single day of warfare in this nations history. Our 5,533 casualties on that one date (killed, wounded or missing-in-action) were equivalent to Australian losses from the whole of the Boer War, the Korean War and the Vietnam War combined. Despite the massive number of casualties involved as Tim Whitford explained nothing had been known about the location of the remains of Australian soldiers lost at Fromelles for almost a century. Using photographs taken during World War One, plus a range of other pieces of evidence, Tim gave fascinating details about his groups detective work in tracking down the graves of the missing Diggers of Fromelles. He spoke with a special passion about being able to set to rest the troubled heart of his beloved grandmother the persistence of Tim and his team had helped to locate the body of her uncle, Tims own great-uncle, Private Harry Willis. Representatives from Warragul RSL were every bit as enthralled as students and staff from Warragul Regional College by Tims fascinating talk. Thanks to Tim Whitford and his colleagues, a sense of identity and dignity has been restored to Australian soldiers left for almost a century in an unmarked mass-grave near the French village of Fromelles. As a result of Tims presentation organised by Humanities teacher Mr Trevor Cox Year 9 students at Warragul Regional College now have a much greater appreciation of sacrices made by Australian servicemen during wartime.

SCHOOL-WIDE POSITIVE BEHAVIOUR SUPPORT

SWPBS is an evidence based framework comprised of practices and systems for establishing positive school cultures, learning and teaching environments and individual behaviour supports needed to achieve academic and social success for all students.
In a recent edition of Worth Reading I explained in simple terms the framework that is school-wide positive behaviour support. I thought now would be an appropriate time to give you a progress report and briey outline our plans for 2014. In recent weeks the entire College staff has undertaken an on-line EBS (Effective Behaviour Support) survey which examines the status and need for improvement of four behaviour support systems: Both Surveys produced very similar results, and gave us a clear picture of the goals we need to construct for 2014, which are:

GOAL NO: 1
Dene Expectations ~ what do our College Values (Community, Achievement, Respect, Effort) really mean? What do those values mean or look like in different settings?

School-wide discipline systems Non-classroom based management systems Classroom management systems Systems for individual students engaging in chronic problem behaviours
Additionally, working with Anne Outhred (Educational Consultant), we have conducted a SET (School-wide Evaluation Tool) survey of both teaching and non-teaching staff and students at all year levels, which is designed to:

GOAL NO: 2
Teach expectations explicitly ~ introducing, modelling and reinforcing positive social behaviour is an important step of a students educational experience.

GOAL NO: 3
Recognise and acknowledge ~ positive social behaviour is the key to our success.

Assess features that are in place Determine annual goals for SWPBS Evaluate ongoing efforts toward school-wide behaviour support Design and revise procedures as needed Compare annual efforts toward school-wide effective behaviour support

GOAL NO: 4
Correct inappropriate social behaviour in a positive manner through the re-teaching of the appropriate behaviour.

PLEASE REMEMBER
When a student cant spell........we teach When a student cant read.........we teach When a student cant count........we teach When a student cant behave......we dont punish..we TEACH
