Students may work individually or in groups to devise their own project about the theme People and Consequences. This theme offers students the opportunity to explore the role of individuals or groups in history. This exploration can be approached at a number of levels such as:
How the life of a significant person has been linked to significant events in history.
How famous individuals have been represented in history.
How we judge the achievements of ‘great’ people.
To what extent historical events are influenced by individuals.
Competition entries can be in the form of an essay, a 3D‐model, a film, a performance or website.
Entries for the Challenge close August 31st and will be judged by a panel of local history teachers for progression to state and then national panels. National winners will be notified by mail in late October.
This is an extra‐curricular activity, so students will not be given time to work on their projects during class, however after school workshops at Irymple Secondary College will be held in the library on Wednesday afternoons until 4:45pm. Students will also need to spend some time completing their entries at home. The workshops will be run by Mr Gibbons, Mrs Robertson & Mrs McClure. The sessions are not compulsory, but they will allow students to have access to a range of print and non‐print resources. More importantly, attending these sessions will enable students to assist each other and be provided with feedback and assistance relating to the development of their projects.
If you would like to attend the Wednesday afternoon workshops please see Mr Gibbons or Mrs McClure for a permission form.
Further information about the challenge can also be found at http://historychallenge.org.au

State Volleyball Trip
On the 17th of May our Intermediate Volleyball Team piled into the mini bus and headed off to Melbourne to contest the State Volleyball Championship. After a seven hour journey we dined out at the food court at Highpoint Shopping Centre before bedding down in our comfortable cabins in the well manicured suburb of Braybrook. After a restful night the boys were on the road by 8 o’clock and Mr Dalziel had the I Phone running hot whilst trying to find the fastest route to MSAC (Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre).The first game we played was against Grovedale and we won in three sets; 20‐10, 19‐21 and 15‐4 and proved that disciplined teamwork beats patchy flashes of brilliance every day of the week. The second game was against a very professionally drilled team from Maribyrnong and we went down in two sets; 20‐13 and 20‐13. Maribyrnong’s distinct height advantage was too much for our boys who were very competitive throughout the match. Our final match was against Kew Secondary College and as any chance of making the finals had dissipated after losing the first set 20‐13 it was time to let the bench put on a show and to their credit only went down 20‐11 in a well fought contest. I must commend our students on the way they behaved both on and off the court for the whole time we were away.

The team was; Jesse Robinson, Jarrod Lay, John Hua, Forrest Patterson, Daniel Gervasoni, Tom Seaman, Nick Callipari, Jayden Cogan, Daniel Mills and Liam Wood.

The Salvation Army Red Shield Appeal
On Friday 25th May the school will be raising funds for the Salvation Army Red Shield Appeal. Students are invited to come in casual clothes (footy colours) with a gold coin donation for our Footy Colours Day. Popcorn will be sold for $1.50 and Fairy Floss for $2 at lunch time. A Teacher vs. Student football game will also be on during lunch.
No singlet tops or thongs allowed on the day.
Yr 10 Work Experience ‐ time running out? Many students have got their 2 weeks of work experience fully organised which is fantastic. Generally students get the positions they want if they get organised early. However, there are a lot of students who 'say' that they are organised, but have not yet brought back to Susanne (in the front office) the employer's signed official documents ? These must be returned for legal and insurance purposes. The forms also must be signed by a parent. Susanne then gets the Principal to sign off and then she can organise a 'pack', ready for the work placement. Students must also complete two Worksafe modules before they go on placement. A general module and an industry specific module. These have mostly been completed in STEPS but a certificate of completion must be given to your STEPS teacher for proof. Don't leave finding a placement to the last minute! All the above usually takes at least 1 ‐ 2 weeks to complete. Do not expect staff and employers to bend over backwards in the last
week of school because you are in a panic from not being organised ! STEPS teachers, Susanne (front office) and Mrs Horkings can help you NOW, so ask if you need assistance.
Irymple Secondary College would like to acknowledge and thank ←Module Dezines for their generous donation of materials to our Woodwork Department.
Mr Ryan.
Outward Bound 2012
On the 26th of May, 20 Year 9 students and 2 teachers headed off to Canberra to attend this year’s Outward Bound program. This program is all about students learning more about themselves and how they get along with other students and people. It’s amazing how some students change the way they behave in the bush in comparison to a school.
Outward Bound is a journey of 7 days in the Wilderness of Namadgi National Park just south of Canberra. During these days students undergo a variety of activities including Abseiling, High Ropes course, an introduction to caving at a place called Lego Land, and several days of walking and navigation through the bush.
5
Each night students are responsible for the cooking of food. This year’s highlight was a new meal which was famously named as “Mush and veggies”. It was probably the worst meal anyone had tasted but everybody was that hungry that most sucked it up and ate it, although one of the teachers found a very nice apple and orange to eat that evening throwing the “Mush” into the chook bucket. Other than that night, the rest of the meals were very creative and rather yummy.
We walked through various weather conditions, one morning waking up to a temperature around minus 4, with our bivvies frozen solid with ice! Even some students who hadn’t quite got their gear right found themselves with frozen boots and sleeping bags.
Overall the trip was an enjoyable experience and thanks should go to Mr Penna and Mrs Douglas for their efforts in getting us there and back safely.
Outward Bounders.
SRC update
Thanks to all staff, students, family and friends that helped SRC raise money for our sponsor child, Lustiani, by buying Freddo frogs. We raised $320 in a very short amount of time. Stay tuned for more fundraising events! Also well done to the college captains who did a great job at running the ISC Anzac service and also for representing our school at the local Irymple Anzac parade.
Interhouse Cross Country – Held Wednesday 9th May.
With over 400 students participating in the event the day was a huge success, with everyone having a great day. The weather was fine and sunny which made the day an ideal
one for running. The nice weather and effort put in by runners might also explain part of the reason why Gibbo’s snags were so popular at the end. Many students took the opportunity to run their best times while others chose to jog and/or walk the course at their leisure. Some excellent times were recorded with age group champions and placegetters on the day being:
13 Yrs Girls – 1st and AGC – Tegan Lynch (R), 2nd – Tarlia Couzner (J), 3rd – Tiarne Seaman (M)
13 Yrs Boys – 1st and AGC – Brandon Grenfell (J), 2nd – Dallas Holmes (J), 3rd – Jake Barker (L)
14 Yrs Girls – 1st and AGC – Tiana Sylvia (R), 2nd – Alex Bacon (L), 3rd – Jemima Underwood (L)

Girls Roberts 172.5 Points Lloyd 162 Points Middleton 146 Points Johansen 116.5 Points
Overall Johansen 340.5 Points (Winners) Roberts 302.5 Points Lloyd 299 Points Middleton 263 Points
Congratulations to Johansen House, all age group winners and placegetters and to everyone who “had a go”!! Mr Morrish
2012 Alpine Community Learning Project‐ Launch Day
On Friday 20th April, the Alpine Leadership team; consisting of Jarrod Lay, Olivia Ganz, Tyler
Trevaskis, Allie Deacon, Jayden Fitzgerald and Erica Musgrove; conducted their
Community Learning Project (CLP) which they had been working on since attending Gnurad‐ Gundidj campus in term 4 of 2011. The team’s aim for their CLP was to demonstrate the value of having an education and the opportunity that their peers are given whilst at school. Their belief was that there were many students not making the most of their time at school and viewing school as a hindrance rather than an opportunity.
To pass their message on, the team held a launch day in which guest speakers spoke to all the Year 8’s and 9’s at the Irymple Leisure Centre. The guest speakers included Eric Oguzkaya (Chemist Warehouse Manager), Shane Dickeson (Double
lung transplant recipient) and Lesley Cordoma (Mallee Family Care).
Eric spoke to the audience about the
opportunities that an education provided him and that with hard work, perseverance and accurate goal setting you can realise your dreams and be successful in any field you wish. Shane then spoke of his inspirational story of living with Cystic Fibrosis and becoming a double lung transplant recipient. The daily challenges he faced to get himself back to full health put life in perspective for the students and made them realise how precious life is. Lesley was the final speaker for the event and conveyed a message of support to the students on behalf of Mallee Family Care and Chances for Children.

The Alpine Team is to be congratulated on their efforts in conducting a very professional and
successful presentation to their peers. The team will continue to enforce the message of ‘Education Inspiration’ by placing posters around the school with inspiring quotes and information reminding students of the opportunity they have throughout their schooling. Currently ISC is applying to send two teams to two campuses in 2013 ‐ more info to follow.
