Dear Parents and Friends ...<br />

Both K Block and our Multi‐Purpose Hall will be officially opened by Senator the Hon John Hogg<br />
on Wednesday 26 October, 2011. The function will be held in the Hall from 9:00am to 10:00am.<br />
Please join with us as we celebrate the ongoing development of the fantastic facilities here at<br />
<strong>Riverside</strong>. (Ladies, please note that the flooring surface is not suitable for high heels, thank you.)<br />
Thinking of and prayers are with the students who had their classroom burn down<br />
at the Upper Primary Campus of Groves <strong>Christian</strong> <strong>College</strong> last week. There was fire<br />
and smoke damage to 6 classrooms and a number of student and staff resources,<br />
as well as school equipment, has been lost.<br />
Principal Terrence McCorkell said, “We often teach our students that the temporary<br />
things of earth are passing. In fact I reminded the Year 3 students last week of the song,<br />
"Turn your eyes upon Jesus, Look full in his wonderful face, and the things of earth will grow<br />
strangely dim in the light of his glory and grace". It was one thing to sing this song last<br />
week. It will be another thing to live it this week. In light of this, should the burning of our<br />
classrooms render us unable to achieve our mission of "Educating for Eternity"? Quite the<br />
opposite. It will test our resolve to achieve this mission despite the problems. In fact, the<br />
brightness and attractiveness of eternity with God should stand out brighter against the<br />
blackened remains of the classrooms.”<br />

POPcorn Stall<br />
Year 4/5W immensely enjoyed the<br />
Popcorn Day where they sold<br />
popcorn during first break last Friday.<br />
Although the students only raised<br />
$56 which was a little disappointing<br />
they are pleased to be able to share<br />
this amount between their two<br />
charity choices of World Vision and<br />
Maryborough Soup Kitchen. The<br />
students have since reflected as a<br />
class to evaluate where they could<br />
make improvements if they were to<br />
ever have a Popcorn Day again. They<br />
concluded that they would need to<br />
buy much more popping corn since it<br />
was all sold out in about 10 minutes.<br />
They decided they should sell each<br />
bag for $1 instead of only 50 cents.<br />
The main thing is that the students<br />
thoroughly enjoyed the hands‐on<br />
experience.<br />
Multi-Cultural Museum<br />
Both 4/5 classes set up a museum<br />
this week in Mrs Wendt's room<br />
displaying our varying multi‐cultures<br />
that represent where our ancestors<br />
first came before settling in Australia.<br />
Students have researched their<br />
family tree and other interesting<br />
information about their relatives and<br />
displayed on tables and walls to<br />
share this information with their<br />
fellow classmates, parents and<br />
grandparents who are able to visit<br />
the museum. Some students (and<br />
Mrs Wendt) dressed up in traditional<br />
costume and brought in some<br />
traditional food to share.<br />

JUST A BIT OF A DRAMA<br />
The Year 8 Drama classes have been rehearsing their small group plays all term,<br />
and last week presented them to the class for assessment. Mrs Wallace was very<br />
impressed with some of the props and costumes, as well as the performances.<br />
Well done everyone!<br />
Year 6/7 <strong>Riverside</strong> were well represented at this year’s Solar Technology Challenge with 8 boats competing.<br />
Although we didn’t make it to the finals we certainly didn’t disgrace ourselves with times only 1 second off qualifying<br />
final times for some of the boats. Well done to all who participated.<br />
A very big thanks to Mr White, Mr Keilly and Mr MacRae who assisted the kids in building the boats in Term 3.<br />
Without their expertise and patience (with both kids and science teachers) the activity would not<br />
have got off the ground. Thanks should also go to the many parents who took time out of their<br />
busy Saturday to come on down and enjoy the racing.<br />

On Friday the 9 September, 5 willing and enthusiastic<br />
students volunteered to donate blood at the Blood<br />
Bank. Ryan Rach Yr 11 and Yr 12 students Aryah Little,<br />
Ebony Walker, Zac Holt, Megan Blomdale and also Mr<br />
Brian Harvey. These students and teacher had taken<br />
the time to give to the community as the blood bank<br />
levels are currently very low. These special people<br />
have made a huge difference to people who are in<br />
need of blood. <strong>Riverside</strong> would like to schedule<br />
another donation session next term for more students<br />
to give blood. If you are over the age of 16 and with<br />
parent permission then you are eligible. Donating<br />
blood could help to save or prolong the life of a child,<br />
mother, father or a sibling.<br />
Please see Megan Blomdale in Yr 12 if you are<br />
interested.<br />
Congratulations girls on doing such a wonderful job.<br />

HPV…..a Roaring Success!<br />
On September 10 ‐ 11, 40 <strong>Riverside</strong> <strong>Christian</strong> <strong>College</strong><br />
students and 8 staff were involved in our second ever<br />
Maryborough Technology Challenge. The HPV (human<br />
powered vehicle) section began at noon on Saturday and<br />
ran for 24 continuous hours until noon on Sunday. The<br />
location was a 1.5 km street circuit around Maryborough<br />
State High School and Central State School. The students<br />
had been training for many months and were eager to<br />
compete in the challenge. There were 110 entries in all<br />
categories. Many schools had spent long hours in preparing their<br />
HPV trikes, and themselves in readiness for the challenge. The<br />
designs, the technology used in building the trikes and the paint<br />
jobs were outstanding! 105 vehicles lined up for the event.<br />
Our student teams were as follows:<br />
Xtreme Speed: (Junior Boys category – Yr 9 & 10) Zacharias<br />
Lawgall, Reece Johnson, Bronte Jeffs, Brady Jackson, Callum<br />
Perrotta‐O’Sullivan, Lucy Kinbacher, Emily Rockemer, Sean<br />
Petersen‐Flaherty, Brooke White and Michael Blowers.<br />
(Came 21st in their division)<br />
Vipers: (Open Boys category – Yr 11 & 12) Brad Butcher, Damon<br />
Roberts, Joseph Dodd, Adam Kenny, Tiffany Peters, Danny<br />
O’Brien, Zac Holt, Tyson Gibbs, Ebony Walker, Aryah Little and<br />
Hamilton Rockemer. (Came 27th in their division)<br />
Super Sonics – (Junior Boys category – Yr 9 & 10) Phillipa<br />
Allanson, Brayden Trigger, Jakob Kruger, Timothy Gibson,<br />
Eli Isdale, Cameron Best, Liam Hart, Matthew McKewin, Ryan<br />
Storrs and Isabella Mielczarek. (Came 14th in their division)<br />
One Step Ahead: (Junior Mixed category – Yr 9 & 10) Peter<br />
Green, Liam Taylor, Nicholas Johannesen, Matthew Lloyd, Shelby<br />
Kenny, Mikaela Dunlea, Tim Carl, Tulahni Little, Jade McGuigan<br />
and Gabriella Rasteiro. (Came 7th in their division) !!!<br />
Thanks go out to all the parents that helped out on the weekend<br />
by giving their time to assist our students. Of special note were<br />
Rebecca Bargenquast and Kathy Blowers (parents) who gave our<br />
ailing and sore competitors massages and medical treatment after<br />
competing and Michelle Kinbacher for her outstanding food tent<br />
(home baking, cooking, coffee, meals, and encouragement to all)<br />
and to others too numerous to mention who were on site for the<br />
majority of the challenge. This support was truly appreciated by<br />
all. After 24 hours of non‐stop competing and many hours of<br />
cheering, fixing, eating and sleeping, the challenge was over.<br />
When the dust had cleared at noon on Sunday, <strong>Riverside</strong> had<br />
done very well, and although did not win any awards for their<br />
speed, they demonstrated true sportsmanship, enthusiasm,<br />
perseverance and outstanding team spirit. All students are<br />
looking forward to 2012 and even bigger and bet‐<br />

CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS: 2 DEC return 23 JAN 2012<br />
Staff member, Mr Jason Cudby won the Best & Fairest<br />
Player as well as the Player’s Award for the Fraser Coast<br />
Mariners Senior A Grade Rugby Team recently. He has<br />
also played Representative Rugby Union for Wide Bay in<br />
the Central Qld Competition with his team winning the<br />
competition this year. He was also selected to play for<br />
Central Qld, but sadly the rules have changed this year<br />
and Mr Cudby is not eligible to play for them until he has<br />
been living in Australia for 3 years.<br />
Even more news for Mr and Mrs Cudby<br />
was the arrival of their first child this<br />
week.<br />
Georgia Janice Cudby was born on the<br />
11-09-11 and is doing well.<br />
Congratulations<br />
from all of us at <strong>Riverside</strong>!<br />
