NEWSLETTER<br />

13 August <strong>2012</strong> (<strong>Week</strong> 1 Secondary Timetable)<br />

As I missed writing last week’s due to illness, I<br />

didn’t have an opportunity to thank everyone<br />

who joined us for the fabulous Education Day<br />

Celebration. After an excellent Ecumenical Service<br />

conducted by Reverends Beth and Robert<br />

Bowman, featuring our Scripture classes, a very<br />

special Assembly took place which acknowledged<br />

those students, teachers and community<br />

members who made major contributions to our<br />

school over the past year. Special congratulations<br />

to Sharon Milsom, Donna Lane and Effie<br />

Fergusson who received extra special acknowledgement<br />

from the staff at <strong>Dunedoo</strong> <strong>Central</strong><br />

<strong>School</strong>. The scrumptious morning tea and<br />

“lunch on the lawn” contributed to making the<br />

day even more special, by bringing families together<br />

with teachers and students. Congratulations<br />

to our Education Day Commiittee.<br />

Thankyou for your great organisation and the<br />

contribution you have made towards raining<br />

awareness of what schools do in the 21st Century.<br />

Year 11 were very excited this morning as they<br />

departed for their annual pilgrimage to Mt<br />

Selwyn. The Year 11 Ski Trip is a very important<br />

component for team bonding as students get to<br />

know each other on a more personal basis whilst<br />

enjoying the challenge of attempting a new<br />

sport. Most of our students have never seen<br />

snow let alone skis so it’s quite an adventure<br />

with everyone starting at the same level.<br />

We had an exceptional Olympics Day last<br />

Thursday, despite the weather, which was very<br />

reminiscent of London. There were many positive<br />

comments from students and staff were<br />

very happy with the attitude of students towards<br />

the activities. Besides a range of interesting<br />

sports, students learnt about other countries and<br />

their athletes, the importance of events like the<br />

Olympics for promoting world peace and friendship<br />

and sportsmanship in general.<br />

Commiserations to our u/16 <strong>Dunedoo</strong>/Coolah<br />

Rugby League players who were beaten by the<br />

slenderest of margins by St Anne’s Temora (22-<br />

24) , in the Grand Final of the Small <strong>School</strong>’s<br />

Rugby League Knockout at Bathurst last week.<br />

The game was in the balance right up to the final<br />

whistle, and was a credit to both sides who gave<br />

their all. Congratulations to St Anne’s on their<br />

win and congratulations to our boys for being<br />

contenders.<br />

We are at present moving a great deal of accumulated<br />

pre-loved equipment to the Hall in<br />

preparation for our ‘Trash & Treasure “ Day on<br />

the 26th August. Besides the sale of school<br />

items there will be a Car Boot Sale to allow<br />

community members to sell their preloved items<br />

on the day. WE know there are many events<br />

taking place on that weekend, but hope that everyone<br />

can spare a half hour or so to view items<br />

and make a bid or a purchase.<br />

Kindergarten stole the show at last week’s Friday<br />

Assembly, with another rendition of “the<br />

Red Red Robbin comes bob bob bobbin along”.<br />

It is always a happy assembly when Kindy “run<br />

the show”, and fantastic to see so many parents<br />

and family members join us.<br />

I attended a Reference Group Meeting on the<br />

new Australian Curriculum last week. At this<br />

stage, there will be a great deal of preparation in<br />

2013 for implementation in 2014. Teachers will<br />

be supported through a range of staff development<br />

programs. English will be brought into<br />

the Primary <strong>School</strong> in 2014 followed by maths in<br />

2015. In the Secondary <strong>School</strong>, English, Maths,<br />

Science and History look like being introduced<br />

in 2014, followed by other courses in the following<br />

years.<br />

Good luck to Year 12 Industrial Technology<br />

students who had to submit their practical project<br />

to day for examination by the external markers.<br />

Good luck also to Year 12 who begin their<br />

Trial HSC Exams today.<br />

This week there is a Merit Assembly today, visits<br />

by our Speech Therapist on Tuesday, students<br />

participating in Moorambilla Choir go to camp,<br />

the Australian Ballet visits Thursday with some<br />

Workshops and the Premier’s Youth Advisory<br />

group who will be interviewing our SRC and<br />

other school leaders. Twenty Four students will<br />

be representing our school at the District Athletics<br />

Carnival in Dubbo on Friday. Good luck to<br />

all students involved in activities this week.<br />

Enjoy your week!<br />

know by sending in a note or a phone call. We are still having some confusion at bus time!<br />

�� Mrs M Abbott , Assistant Principal Infants<br />

maths our topics are sharing, equal groups, equal rows and grouping and in HSIE we are looking at “Family<br />

History”. I would like all the children to bring in a baby photo so we can construct personal �melines. Please<br />

send the photo in an envelope clearly marked with their name, thankyou!<br />

Don’t forget to learn your spelling words for our Friday test, revise your sight words, complete your<br />

homework and read every night. Congratula�ons to Ella Rigby our student from last week and to Chloe<br />

Stanford and Callum Wham who received merit cer�ficates. Mrs Yeo<br />

Congrats to the commi�ee and the children for making it such a fun day.<br />

sound as in cloud and round. In maths this week year 1 will learn about division, grouping and arrays<br />

and number pa�erns. Year 2 will learn about comparing areas, division using arrays and repeated<br />

subtrac�ons. Children are working really well on their personal histories, it would be great if we could<br />

have all baby photos in by tomorrow so they can be scanned onto their work. Homework as usual this<br />

week. Homework Centre is on Thursday from 3pm‐4pm in the Primary Annex. This week we welcome<br />

Emily Holland to our year 1 class Emily has come to us from Queensland. It is always nice to make new<br />

On Friday at lunchtime, our illustrious team of Claire Moorhouse, Joshua Rookyard, Codi Page and<br />

Kyle Lewis played their first online games. We had only played one game against St. Mary’s Wellington<br />

but had managed to make it to the fourth round because two other teams had forfeited. We met<br />

Dubbo Christian <strong>School</strong> at www.chesshere.com for virtual chess. Everyone was ready with no idea<br />

what our opponents looked like or how to size them up. It was all about the game. Claire, Codi and Joshua were all defeated<br />

and Kyle theoretically won because his opponent timed out. We have finished up in the Country NSW Junior Chess tournament<br />

for this year but will continue training for the next chess event in Dubbo in September.


State Touch Football Carnival<br />

Last week I went to Parkes to play touch football as part of the<br />

Western Region Primary Girls team. The state touch football carnival<br />

was held over 3 days with teams competing from every region in<br />

NSW. We played 12 games in two and a half days with the semis<br />

and finals being played on Thursday<br />

afternoon. The Western team was<br />

made up of girls from Orange, Parkes,<br />

Lithgow, Forbes, Kandos, Rylstone,<br />

Gilgandra and of course <strong>Dunedoo</strong>. We<br />

were very competitive over the tournament,<br />

improving with each game, and<br />

finished 9th overall. I really enjoyed the<br />

experience, learnt new skills, made<br />

some new friends and scored 2 tries!<br />

Emma Gallagher<br />

Chaplains Chat with Rev. Beth<br />

What do I do? My task is to supply pastoral, spiritual, emotional and social support and comfort to all<br />

members of the <strong>Dunedoo</strong> <strong>Central</strong> <strong>School</strong> community regardless of faith or belief systems.<br />

Chaplaincy is a bit like sitting at the crossroads of life where the different lines of life experience clash with<br />

one another. There are 3 models of caring involved in chaplaincy:<br />

Pastoral care aims to provide physical & emotional support rather than a purely spiritual focus;<br />

Mentoring or walking alongside another – a bit like Gandalf and Frodo; and,<br />

Enabling is being there to assist and support members of the school community (Student, Staff,<br />

Family& Friends) to be who they are to their fullest potential.<br />

I am not the <strong>School</strong> Counsellor, (though I do share his office) and am not here to “Christianise” the <strong>School</strong>.<br />

My role is supporting the whole body of <strong>Dunedoo</strong> <strong>Central</strong> <strong>School</strong> as an added resource with a different skill<br />

set and approach to a professionally trained teacher. The position is funded by the Federal Government’s<br />

<strong>School</strong> Chaplaincy and Welfare Programme and is for the period <strong>2012</strong>-14. For the rest of <strong>2012</strong>, I’ll be at the<br />

school and its functions for 20 hours a week, then my hours will revert to 10 hours a week (400 hours per<br />

annum) next year. I’ll be undertaking Personal and Professional Development and Training as part of my<br />

support role in the school.<br />

<strong>Dunedoo</strong> <strong>Central</strong> <strong>School</strong> will be hosting<br />

So Close!<br />

<strong>Dunedoo</strong>- Coolah Under 16 Rugby League almost Snag a Country Title.<br />

After a great run to make the Country finals the <strong>Dunedoo</strong> - Coolah boys travelled to Bathurst’s Carrington<br />

Park last Wednesday to face St Anne’s of Temora in the final to determine the Country’s best. Quietly confident<br />

with their own form, the boys also knew they would face a good challenge from a mainly unknown opponent.<br />

And challenged they were!<br />

Temora came out absolutely on fire and made a few big inroads into the <strong>Dunedoo</strong>- Coolah defensive line early,<br />

but the defence led by awesome displays by Hamish Kitchin, Sam ( Rambo) Foran, and Sam Christensen<br />

held, and both sides showed great skill and control in the early stages. The fast pace of the match began to tell<br />

and in the 16 th minute Temora staged a well structured raid and found the line for a converted try to lead 6 nil.<br />

Almost immediately Nathan Brown struck back with a magnificent 80 metre try, Tim Trainor converted and<br />

the teams were on level pegging.<br />

The boys worked themselves back into Temora’s half and after a kick Harley Stevenson stole the ball and we<br />

attacked again with Jake Besgrove showing great agility and strength crashing over the line, Tim was on target<br />

again and <strong>Dunedoo</strong>- Coolah had a 12 – 6 lead five out from halftime.<br />

The restart was part of a horror few minutes as we gifted Temora a quick try and then with some speedy play<br />

from their backs they were over again to take a 12 – 16 half time lead.<br />

At halftime the boys were confident that they could still take the match and set about the second half with a<br />

lot of energy. A couple of nervous errors gave Temora another good opportunity and another try and looking<br />

down an eight point deficit was a genuine challenge for the boys. They rallied and for the most part dominated<br />

the next 25 minutes of play.<br />

With halfback Tim Trainor and five eighth Jake Besgrove calling the shots our big forwards Anthony Kaperonis,<br />

Sam Christensen, and Jacob Pottbury were driven on by inspired leadership from skipper Hamish<br />

Kitchin and lifted the tempo. A scrum feed on the Temora 20 saw Nathan Brown again breach the line and<br />

dive over next to the posts. Scoreline 18-22, and well on top!<br />

A lucky scrambled try from a kick on one of their few visits to our half saw Temora extend their lead to 18-26<br />

with about 12 minutes to go. In this period everyone really lifted and with Anthony Kaperonis leading raid after<br />

raid we were unlucky not to be awarded two additional tries, before Nathan Brown capped off a great day<br />

with his third try off a very clever Tim Trainor kick to get us to 24 – 26 with 5 minutes left on the clock. Again<br />

we were denied two more good shots, and with Blake Carlyle disallowed another try with two minutes to go<br />

we were extremely unlucky not to get the points needed to claim the Country Championship Title. A case of<br />

the better team losing in the eyes of many observers.<br />

This was an excellent game, one the <strong>Dunedoo</strong>- Coolah boys were extremely unlucky to lose, and a credit to the<br />

whole team. Anthony Kaperonis was named the “man of the match”, being just one of many great efforts in<br />

the team. This dose not usually happen, the losing side winning most valuable player.<br />

Other considerable efforts were young gun Brenden Solberg, being only in year 8 showed great determination<br />

and fighting spirit, and another great effort from Luke ( HOGS) Hogden, and James Copelin were what kept<br />

us in the match.<br />

Well done to all the players, and thank you to the coaches, managers and<br />

all the parent and family supporters who were at the game.


WISHING YOU ALL A GREAT DAY!<br />

CANTEEN NEWS<br />

�� Hello for week 5.<br />

14/8 A Wright 21/8 V Seis<br />

�� Thankyou to the families who have placed uniform orders. 15/8 A Wright 22/8 M Henderson<br />

They will be ordered today and should be here next week. 16/8 Donna B 23/8 D Dean<br />

�� I have some exciting news ‐ we are trialing some new prod‐ 17/8 Nola 24/8 Nola<br />

ucts. Some of which are “Green” canteen approved varie‐<br />

ties are Spaghetti Bolognese, Macaroni Cheese and Beef Lasagne. The same company also has<br />

Pizza Slabs which are slightly bigger than a pizza single. Please see below to read about the new<br />

products on trial and a brief explanation of “Green, Amber and Red” categories. These items will<br />

be placed on next terms menu based on popularity on sales. So if they don’t sell they won’t be<br />

added. I am looking forward to feedback regarding these products.<br />

�� A shame some of my volunteers have been sick themselves or sick children, so I hope everyone<br />

gets well soon. Thankyou to Jenni Yeo and Nola for your help last week. Thanks Jenny<br />

LOOK!<br />

We have some new products on trial:<br />

Macaroni Cheese 200g serve $2.90<br />

Spaghetti Bolognese 200g serve $2.90<br />

Beef Lasagne 200g serve $2.90<br />

All of the above are GREEN approved meals.<br />

Pizza Slabs 160g serve $2.70<br />

These pizza slabs come in: Hawaiian, Margherita, Supreme & BBQ Meat Lovers<br />

The Pizza Slabs are AMBER approved.<br />

What does GREEN and AMBER mean?<br />

GREEN means we can have as much as we want, it has to dominate the menu<br />

such as fruit and vegies, salads, sandwiches and rolls, low fat dairy products, water<br />

etc.<br />

AMBER means we can have these in moderation and should not dominate the<br />

menu such as low fat or lite pies, sausage rolls etc. They are also in smaller portion<br />

sizes such as the “snack size” 28g packet of chips. Certain ice creams come<br />

into this category as does full fat dairy products and fruit juices.<br />

RED means we cannot sell these items at our canteen on a daily basis, we can only<br />

sell these items on one day of the term, which is our disco. These items are<br />

“sometimes” foods such as lollies, chocolate, most ice creams, fizzy drinks such as<br />

coca cola, fanta, biscuits, cakes and so on.<br />

Any questions please ask me and I will be happy to assist.<br />
