LOST PROPERTY At the moment there are a large amount of lost property – lots of winter jumpers and lots of bags with PE uniforms and sneakers in them. The lost property is kept in the Science area please call in to claim your lost property.

SCHOOL SECURITY Is everyone’s responsibility. If you are driving past the school and see anything suspicious we urge you to contact School Security on 1300 880 021. Let’s all band together to stop any building or ground vandalism.

CHANGED ADDRESS OR TELEPHONE NUMBERS? Have your child come to the front office and we will complete the necessary paperwork. It is very important to have details up to date in case your student is sick or there is an emergency at school.

STUDENTS WITH ASTHMA If your child has asthma and even if they rarely require ventolin, it is imperative they always have an inhaler on hand at school, at sports carnivals and on excursions. Please ensure there is always an inhaler in their bag. For hygiene reasons, the school does not keep ventolin on hand to share between students.

STUDENT FOOTWEAR All students participating in P.E. and school sport are required to wear correct PE shorts, correct polo shirt as well as covered lace up sports shoes that are suitable for them to participate safely in their chosen activity.

BOOK WEEK 2018 Congratulations to our winners from our Book Week Competition last week; Bronwyn Hull, Dale Massey & Kayla Paterson. First prize was a gift voucher, which was kindly donated to our school by Bookface Erina Fair. Second and third places got to enjoy some delicious chocolates. I’d like to thank THS Book Club for running a successful competition and the THS community for its fabulous support. Lyndall Gale, Librarian.

STAGE 5 DEBATING On Tuesday the 21st of August, the Year 10 debating team participated in the Hunter/Central Coast regional quarter final against Gosford High School. The debate topic decided by participating teams was ‘That we should ban combat sports’. As the affirmative team we focused on setting a very clear scope and definition of the topic which seemed to be impenetrable by the negative team and led us to our victory. Congratulations to our team, Sean at first speaker, Eva at second, Chris at third and Zac as team advisor. You have been fantastic representatives of Terrigal High School, demonstrating our strength in team work and critical and creative thinking. Caitlin Byrnes, English Teacher.

Year 9 PHOTOGRAPHY Year 9 Photography Elective are experimenting with some fun and engaging camera and Photoshop skills and techniques. Above is Gabby Pilon’s photography using shutter speed and light.

CAREERS CORNER with Ms Bates, your Careers Adviser http://www.terrigalhscareers.com/

The School now has its own career website. Students and parents can use this site for a wide range of career information. This site is particularly useful for students in the senior years; however, other students can access information on part time employment while they are still at school. If students resister in the "Student Only" area they will be able to make use of many of the proformas available. They can develop a resume, a cover letter, find out how to act in an interview, what to wear for an interview and many other things.

Don’t forget to check out the Terrigal High Careers Facebook page. This will have the most up to date information regarding Courses, Jobs, Apprenticeships/traineeship, and University information. Work Experience Year 10 Year 10 students should be planning their Work Experience if they haven’t already done so. Whilst there is no set date for them it is highly advised they participate in this very valuable experience before the end of the year. Students were given a Work Experience booklet during their Career Classes. If they need a form or more information please see Ms Bates in Careers! TAFE Applications for 2019 TAFE Applications are open on the 13th of August and close on the 21st of September. Please see Ms Bates for more details.
