Dear Parents and Members of our School Community

Welcome back to another school term. I hope you had a lovely break with your family. I would like to

welcome some new staff to our school in a number of different capacities.

Peter Kell has joined the Industrial Arts team to replace Andrew Hetherington who has moved to a

Head Teacher Teaching and Learning position with the Lachlan group of schools.

Mr John Massang is currently working in Orange network office on some project work and Ms Lauren

Meys has joined the school to work in Science.

Mrs Hawke is on leave for the rest of this term and Mr Williams has moved into the position of Head

Teacher Special Education. Ms Susan Gottschall will relieve as Head Teacher English during this period.

Andrew Farley has taken on the role of canteen and catering manager for the P&C run school

canteen. Andrew brings with him a great deal of knowledge and experience cooking in a hatted

restaurant and will be a valuable asset to our school. The canteen is in the process of getting an EFTPOS

machine to make it easier for students to purchase their lunches. The new menu for July and August is

attached to this newsletter. I would encourage your children to support the canteen as much as

possible. The feedback has been extremely positive in the first two weeks the canteen has been open.

Next week is Education Week across NSW schools. The theme of Education week in 2015 is “Celebrating

Local Heroes”. Being part of the Canobolas community allows your children to develop into local

heroes. We are aiming to improve the outcomes of every child we teach and we will be continuing to

focus on this achievement to ensure your children become the future local heroes for our school and

wider community.

As the year progresses, we will be announcing a number of new programs which will be launched in

2016. Building on the success of our Academically Talented classes, the Canobolas High Performance

Athletes programs and the myriad of other programs we currently offer in the school, is an opportunity

to build skills across Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) through the introduction

of a dedicated STEM centre in 2016. This is a lighthouse project and one which will continue to give our

student the skills and experiences necessary to be successful in the 21st century. We will provide more

details of this program in the coming weeks.

In addition to this program, we will begin an innovative model of teaching and learning totally turning

learning as we currently know it on its head. A small number of students will have the opportunity to

revolutionise how they learn in 2016 by being part of our “Big Picture” academy. More details to follow

in the coming weeks.

Year 11 2016 Subject Selection Evening

On Thursday 23rd July we held our Year 10 into 11 Parent Information Evening and Subject Selection. This

was a great opportunity for our parents and Year 10 students to look at what subjects are on offer for

2016 and to ask questions about studying as a senior student. For those families who could not make

Thursday evening, please feel free to contact Ms Matilka (Year 10 Adviser) who will be able to assist you

with your enquiries.

Year 12 Trial HSC Exams

The trial HSC begins for Year 12 students in week 4, Monday 3rd August. All senior students should now be busily preparing for their exams. Students have been given timetables for the exam period and are

expected to be in attendance for all of their exams. If you require any advice on assisting your child

prepare for their exams, please contact Mrs Udy or Ms Bertolin.

P&C Meeting

The first P&C meeting for term 3 will be held on Wednesday 5th August at 6.30pm in the school admin

building. This will be a great opportunity for you to come along and meet our new canteen manager and hear more about the programs we intend to offer in 2016. All enquiries to our president, Keryn

HPV racing is big business in Victoria, South Australia, Queensland and

Western Australia but has remained a relatively unknown attraction in

NSW.

HPV Racing NSW has been working hard

to establish the first race of its kind in

NSW here in Orange with the first race planned for October 2016. Orange City

Council have approved a repurpose of

sections of the Gosling Creek Reserve to

be converted into a track suitable to hold these three wheeled machines.

We are current ly building the aerodynamic fairing that will surround

the tubular frame with the aim to have it completely track ready for an exhibition on Bike Week Mid-

September.

Hospitality Team Serves Up Success at the Zonta Antique Fair

On Friday 13th June, the Year 11 and 12 Hospitality students catered for the Zonta Antique Fair at the

Orange Function Centre. This event takes place every year and is renowned for being the largest antique fair in Australia.

The hospitality team has catered for this event for the past 12 years and our school prides itself on

delivering the finest cocktail food and service every year.

Mrs Nash and Mrs Buckerfield were extremely proud of the hospitality students and enjoyed working

collaboratively with the commercial cookery and food and beverage students to prepare, cook and serve menu items to the 40 antique fair vendors and the 300 guests, who travel near and far to

appreciate and purchase antique furniture, clothing, jewellery and other collectables.

Students perfected their hygiene, food preparation, cooking and serving skills throughout the day and into the evening. The menu items served during the launch to the dignitaries were gourmet open

sandwiches, cheese and bacon quiche, caramelised onion tartlets, prawn sailboats, gourmet sausage

rolls, Vietnamese spring rolls, chicken kebabs, slices, fruit, cheese and antipasto platters.

The hospitality team looks forward to creating another menu for next year’s Antique Fair and enjoys

volunteering their time and effort to such a wonderful Orange charity.

Metals Recap!

Over the past 2 terms, 7T-1 have been working extremely hard in Technology (Mandatory) to complete

their practical projects. At the end of last term we finally finished our first project, a stick metal figurine. Students designed the shape of their figurine and cut, bent and filed them into shape. A huge thank

you to Brodie Totman in Year 10 who kindly braised the students figurines onto their bases.

Well done 7T-1! Your completed Metal figurines look fantastic!

SCIENCE GALLERY

Year 7 Ag is learning about egg production this term…

These babies are currently ‘cooking’ in the incubator in the Science Prep Room. One day they’ll be real

chooks running around up at the Ag Farm! Contrary to popular belief, these chickens weren’t first bred in Mt.Isa, Queensland, but by a French

company, the “Institute de Selection Animale”.

Apparently ISA Browns are one of the best breeds to have in your chook pen at home or at school –

they lay lots of eggs and it seems they love kids – especially if they know food is part of the relationship! But … among themselves they can be quite bossy. Once they’re settled into a flock with an established

pecking order they can be pretty hard on newcomers. If you want to add new chooks to the flock it

seems the best thing is to get new ones about the same size as the old ones (or bigger!) so they can’t be so easily attacked and you need to provide plenty of room for them to run away until they find their

place in the flock. Year 8 are finishing their Earth & Space Unit by …

Year 9 Science are preparing for their skills tests by practising testing for pH, identifying acids and bases

in common foods….

Watch this

Space …

we’re going to have babies –

little Isa Brown ones!!

… creating their own solar system… and inventing their own mnemonic …

BIBLIOMANIA

During the holidays some interesting new books have arrived in the library.

The ever popular Morris Gleitzman has written another book which continues the story of Felix, a Jewish boy, still struggling to survive in the wake of the liberation of Poland at the end of WWII. Soon

makes the reader consider: when is a war really over? Food is scarce, living conditions abhorrent and the hope of helping people slim. As Felix tells us: “I hoped the Nazis would be

defeated. And they were. I hoped the war would be over. And it was. I hoped we would

be safe. But we aren’t.” Children have to do things to survive which would not have been considered before the war and morals and values are, in many cases, ignored. This is set

against the Nazis performing medical experiments on Jewish people. Can experimentation

of this sort ever be justifiable? It is up to the reader to decide whether this is a story of hope or

hopelessness and gives further insights into the holocaust and its aftermath.

Another popular author, Jackie French, has turned to Shakespeare again in her latest offering: Ophelia: Queen of Denmark. Following from I am Juliet, Ophelia focuses on the reinterpretation of

Hamlet. She is the girl who will be Queen. While Hamlet’s family stab, poison or haunt one

another, Ophelia plans a sensible rule, one filled with justice and the making of delicious

cheeses, even if she has to pretend to be mad to make it happen. Lines from the play are interwoven into the story and Ophelia is revealed as a complex personality, very poised

outwardly but not immune to love and lust. This is Shakespeare’s play with what might have

happened behind the scenes. The book explores the main theme of the play, how vengeful madness destroys lives, but incidents are seen from the point of view of a young woman who thinks that cheese is more important to the happiness of a land than feuds and warfare. I am Juliet is

also in the library collection.

Based on real events, Freedom Ride by Sue Lawson explores the racial tensions in the town

of Walgaree during the summer of 1965. Robbie’s journey from ignorance and acceptance to awareness, disappointment, anger and action will challenge and confront the reader, as

it was only 50 years ago that there was this unwritten apartheid. Robbie, a white teenager,

has his own family issues stemming from his late mother, his highly racist and generally

uncaring father and his cruel and nasty grandmother. Anything bad or unsavoury that happens around town is immediately blamed on an Aboriginal, even when there are no

witnesses. It goes further, with corruption of the bigoted Mayor and the RSL management.

As the Freedom Ride nears from Sydney, tensions boil over, with a few brave men and women

demanding change. This is an excellent read about some of Australia’s history of relations with Aboriginal people.

Another perceptive look at Australian history My Australian Story: Vietnam covers more turbulent

change in Australia in the 1960s. Davey, Pete and Johno are best friends. Pete is clever, Davey is

average and Johno is bad at schoolwork but good at fixing things. They live in Newcastle,

love surfing and rock’n’roll. In diary format, Davey tells the story of two years in their lives, 1969 to 1970, the years when Davey’s brother, Tom, is sent to Vietnam. Davey’s dad, who

served in WWII, is proud, his mother, angry and worried, joins the protest movement, Save

Our Sons. The reader learns of other world events: landing on the moon, the musical Hair, mini skirts and Mick Jagger coming to Australia to film Ned Kelly! We also gain insights into

the heat and sweat of Nui Dat and the sleazy streets of Vung Tau, where soldiers who are

drafted in a lottery to serve in the far-away world of Vietnam create waves very close to

home. Deborah Challinor has brought this period of Australian history to life, including the impact of this being the first televised war.

Dark, thrilling and eerie, Afterlight by Rebecca Lim takes the reader into the heart of a

dangerous love story, revealing the otherworldly and deadly pull of past wrongs which only

the living can put right. Sophie is a teenager, living in Melbourne and coming to terms with

the death of her parents in a freak accident. That’s until Eve, a beautiful ghost clad in black, starts making nightly appearances in Sophie’s bedroom. Eve doesn’t speak or write, she just

hovers, transmitting images and pleading for Sophie’s help. What happened to Eve? Does it

have something to do with a recent murder which has a bikie gang leader on the run? Sophie, with the help of enigmatic Jordan, sets out to answer these questions.

Fleur Ferris, a former police officer and paramedic has written a novel inspired by true stories of online predators and love gone wrong. The reader knows this is the real deal! Risk explores the

potential dangers of social media and the internet. Sierra thinks Jacob Jones is the one

and asks Taylor to cover for her when she goes to meet him for the first time. After three

days, Taylor finally tells Sierra’s mum that she is missing, at first thinking Sierra is up to her

usual selfish tricks. The police do everything they can, but “Jacob Jones” has used an online proxy box to create a fake untraceable identity, the photo he sent is photoshopped

and security cameras where he and Sierra met show a man with his face obscured by a baseball cap. Risk explores one of the many outcomes that can occur when meeting

someone online, then in person, without fully understanding the lengths to which a predator

will go to gain a person’s trust. Gripping, devastating and terrifying, the scariest thing is that everything that happens in Risk is all too possible.

An epic seafaring quest for trust and freedom Empire of the Waves: Voyage of the Moon

Child is the first in a new series by Christopher Richardson. This fantasy novel is filled with vivid

creatures, vibrant settings and characters which keep you guessing. If you are interested in pirates and giants teaming up to fight an evil villain’s plot to destroy the world, borrow this

book soon!

Frankie and Joely are best friends. They love each other like no one else can. When a summer break in the country brings fresh distractions, jealousies and secrets, can their friendship survive? Frankie and Joely, written by Nora Weetman, will appeal to fans of

Maureen McCarthy. Weetman deftly goes from one teenage head to another, a brilliant device. As much as the reader sympathises with one girl because the other is physical

perfection and turns every boy’s head, in the next moment we see how worthless that is for

the beautiful girl who longs for family but only knows how to be desired. Two brothers, one

tough and dominant, the other more sensitive, also get a point-of-view. This is a magnetic young adult novel about friendship, rivalry and new love.

Come to the library soon and explore these new books, as well as magazines such as Top Gear, Game

Informer, Dolly and National Geographic.

♫ MUSIC NOTES ♫

Snow won’t stop Canobolas Music!!

AcTal students in the Band program Canobolas Music students’ workshop at Landers Music

“Feed me Seymour,” - Mr Riles the singing bus driver.

Last Thursday 20 Canobolas Music students were treated to pre-show entertainment as Mr Riles sang his

favourite showstoppers from when he starred in TCRTHS’s Little Shop of Horrors in 2007 whilst he drove us into town. We were on our way to a workshop at Lander’s Music and then to see Kinross Wolaroi School

perform Little Shop of Horrors at Orange Civic Theatre. Mr Riles enjoys rehashing his favourite lines and

tunes from the Canobolas production when he enthusiastically starred as the voice of the plant.

The excursion last Thursday was a lot of fun for all. At Lander’s Music the staff provided a workshop on

different instruments and music types. You can watch a video from this day on either the school’s

Facebook page or Lander’s Music Facebook page.

At the theatre, we sat near the front with a close-up view of the stage. Students enjoyed seeing the

singing, dancing and acting performed by KWS students to tell the story of this strange plant and its

effect on young Seymour and those around him.

All students enjoyed both the Lander’s Music workshop and the musical. We thank the Lander’s Music

staff for their time and we congratulate KWS for their stellar performance.

Our students at the Australian Institute of Music

Budding Year 9 musicians Kyle Fardell

and Sharon Jansen enjoyed 3 days at

the Australian Institute of Music (AIM) in Sydney, where they completed the

Music Factory workshops. Along with

students from metropolitan schools, Kyle and Sharon worked alongside AIM tutors

and musicians to learn about different

rock instruments and music styles. Kyle

says he most enjoyed playing with everyone and learning so much cool

stuff about music and skills for playing in

bands. Kyle has come back with a new appreciation for Jazz music. “It’s also

cool that we got to meet other kids who play guitar and drums and we are all friends on Facebook now

and will try to go to more AIM events in the future,” he says. The students also got to meet and learn

from renowned music personality, John Foreman.

Performing ensembles

We send our well wishes to Mr Ross Welch (Drum Group tutor) who is in hospital after an accident in the

holidays.

Choir students are urged to use the rehearsal materials on the faculty website to rehearse our songs for the upcoming eisteddfod. Please try rehearse at home to learn the songs before Sam goes overseas.

TERM 3!!!!

Marianne Murphy Netball Shield

On Tuesday 21st of July, Canobolas sent 3 netball teams to the PCYC to compete in the local Marianne Murphy Shield. This competition started in 2002 to commemorate the achievements of local girl

Marianne Murphy, who made selections for NSW netball in under 17s, under 19s and open teams. The

Shield is an interschool competition played between all the High Schools in Orange.

In the under 14s division, Canobolas demonstrated effort and determination to

improve every game. Catherine Nicholson was a key player throughout the centre

court, showing stamina and endurance, having only 1 quarter off over 4 games. Lisa Collyer showed skill as a defence and showed great anticipation for opposing plays.

While not a regular netball player, Jordan Price proved a valuable asset, putting in

100% effort and improving every game. Congratulations to Chloe Walton, Courtney

Apps, Kattie-Lee Bennett, Tegan Wood and Amelia-Rose Koller for their efforts on the day.

The under 16s team started the day with no substitutions and some tough competition ahead. With all girls being under 15, this was a

learning experience which will hopefully make them all the more

prepared for next year when they are top age. Some tight and consistent defence

from Destinee Navale and Caitlin White created some great struggles from opposing teams, while Ellena Hicks played a clean and consistent defensive game. Ayla Frost

shot well in every game, while Jada Murphy worked tirelessly to get the ball to the

attacking end of the court and then shot consistently every game. Sarah White and Erin Naden worked strong in the midcourt in both the attack and defence. A big thank you to McKenha Elliot and Lacey

Duncan who assisted in the last game when injury struck.

Congratulations to the girls on a huge day – where they never

stopped pushing and gave everything their all.

In the Open’s division, Canobolas came up against some quality

competition, with Orange High, James Sheahan and Kinross all represented by their Division 1 teams from the local Orange

competition. The girls worked hard throughout the day and made

every effort against tough teams. Congratulations to Lacey

Duncan, McKenha Elliot, Brooke Kingston, Caitlin Masila, Emily Merchant, Zali Pettit, Natasha Spicer and Megan Dodds for their

consistent attempts throughout the day.

Thank you to Jacqui Harris and Emma Kable who volunteered as umpiring representatives for the day,

and best of luck to Emma who will be umpiring grand final matches on Thursday night. Thank you to Mrs

Udy and Mrs Rouse who coached teams and showed great enthusiasm and support for the girls.
