From the Principal HPV Round 2 – The second round of the HPV Super Series was held at Victoria Park Raceway in Adelaide on Sunday. Despite riding in the rain and fog and having some serious visibility issues the students did an excepƟonal job. HOT M nished third in their category and crossed the line only one second behind Crafers, who claimed second place. Momentum had a couple of spectacular crashes and nished the race a liƩle bit worse for wear, however they sƟll managed to nish 12 th in their category and were on the same lap as the car that nished 8 th . Thank you to all involved. Long Tan Awards – NominaƟons are now open for the Year 10 and Year 12 Long Tan awards. Year 10 recipients receive $250 and Year 12 recipients receive $500. Students were encouraged at assembly this week to either nominate themselves or other students in Years 10 and 12. NominaƟons need to demonstrate how the nominee has addressed the selecƟon criteria, which includes leadership, teamwork and community involvement among others. Further informaƟon can be found at hƩp:// www.adongtanawards.gov.au/. College Council – Council was held on Monday night. The main business of the meeƟng was centred around the raƟcaƟon of a number of the DRAFT policies that have been available on the website. Please take the Ɵme to read the policies on the website, hard copies are available from the school on request. Some of the procedures in these policies are new, however, many are not. Prescribed medicaƟons such as anƟbioƟcs can be administered at school but a MedicaƟon Authority Form needs to be completed and sent to school. (Appendix B of that policy.) AƩendance – Any student with aƩendance below 90% will be idenƟed as being at risk. AcƟve AŌer School – There will be no AcƟve AŌer School next week!! Therefore there will be no bus to training. Note that Junior football training does not commence unƟl 4pm. AcƟve will begin again in Week 2 next term. End of Term As next Friday (27th June) is the last day of term, students will be dismissed at 2:30pm. Parents of bus travellers need to note that their children will be home around ¾ hour earlier than normal. Natasha Mudie Principal No. 17 : 20th June 2014 It was felt that explanaƟon and claricaƟon was required on certain points. On site supervision policy – The school will provide supervision for students before school between 8.35am and 8.55am. There will be no teacher on duty in the yard before 8.35am or aŌer 3.25pm. Teachers or the Principal do not have a legal duty of care for students arriving before 8.35am or aŌer 3.25pm. Signing students and visitors in and out of the school – This is a procedure that is menƟoned in a number of our policies and is extremely important in regards to emergency management. All students (primary and secondary) must sign in at the front desk if they arrive late to school. All students must be signed out of the school at the front desk if they are deparƟng before dismissal. All visitors (including parents) must sign in at the front desk at arrival and out when they leave. Paracetamol & MedicaƟons – The new DistribuƟon of MedicaƟon policy states that analgesics are to be supplied by the parents and only to be given by a First Aid trained stamember (almost all staat MCC are First Aid trained) following permission of parents/guardians. Therefore students may bring paracetamol with a note from a parent, however they would need to see a First Aid trained stamember to administer this. This would then be recorded by the stamember. Permission may also be given over the telephone if there was an unexpected onset of pain. Under no circumstances should a child bring paracetamol to control a fever, any student that has a temperature should stay at home. CAREERS EVENING Wednesday 30th July StarƟng at 4pm Will include: Flinders University Schoolbased apprenƟceships Pathway planning More informaƟon will be sent out with students in Years 912 at the start of Term 3. Parents are requested to aƩend, so please keep this evening free.

WHERE are they now?

We went to the dam to see the

We went to the dam and saw the  kayaks. Liam 

I saw a yellow kayak. Seth

We went to the  dam and we saw  

the kayaks.   The yellow kayaks were going fast.      Harvey 

I saw a kayak at the dam. Reece 

I currently work as Counter Manager for Napoleon Perdis.  However, I haven’t always been a makeup ar st.  During Year 12 I 

was very interested in fashion design and had always wanted to work behind the scenes of fashion shows, although I wasn’t 

so keen on the sewing side of that career path.  At that stage I didn’t feel that a makeup ar st was something I could do as a 

serious career and earn a living from, so a er Year 12 I took a job at the Pinnaroo Pharmacy. I realised that I loved learning 

about all the different medica ons, their uses, side effects and interac ons.  It was there that I completed Cer ficate 2 & 3 in 

Community Pharmacy.  A er about 5 years I decided it was  me to move back to Adelaide, closer to my family and to fur‐

ther my career.  I became the head dispensary technician in a large pharmacy.  I learnt so much in this role, and was even 

trained in compounding medicines such as capsules, creams & troches.  However, once I had done all of this, I wanted more 

from my career.  I moved into hospital pharmacy at the Women’s & Children’s Hospital.  There I 

gained even more experience & knowledge, including working asep cally within the sterile phar‐

macy.  A er a family tragedy I re‐evaluated my career.  I decided that my dream of becoming a 

makeup ar st was important to me, and I was prepared to do what was necessary to make that 

happen.  So I quit my job and enrolled in a 6 month full  me makeup course.  I have a Cer ficate 

IV in Makeup and am qualified for not only beauty makeup, but also special effects.  I honestly 

was not looking forward to the special effects side of it, but when the  me came to simulate a 

black eye and even a compound fracture, I was very proud that I could make someone look as 

though a bone was s cking out of their body, and even turn them into a gory zombie.  Now I do 

makeup every day and I love it!  I get to be crea ve at work and, being the manager, I s ll have 

responsibili es such as reports and sales breakdowns to keep diversity in my job.

CAREERS NEWS

On Thursday the 12th of June Astrid Moyle, Molly Gibson and Sophie Gruen, accompanied by Josh Willersdorf, travelled to Mildura for a ‘Nursing as a Career’ day which was held at the Mildura Base Hospital.  Throughout the day we were shown some of the different areas of nursing such as midwifery, theatre, manual handling and li ing, mental health, general nursing skills and a simulated pa ent tour.  They were all very interes ng and gave great insight to what each area would be like.  We really enjoyed the theatre area as we dressed up in proper surgery clothing and were able to play with equipment.  The midwifery sec on was also a popular sec on as it provided a good understanding of the 

du es and we were able to see a placenta and new born babies.  The Nursing day experience was greatly enjoyed by all students and it was an excellent experience to be a part of.
