Term 3, Week 10, 19th September 2013
Principal Cherie Kilpatrick with Year 11 student Stephanie Wiffen.
Congratulations to Year 11 student Stephanie Wiffen who was one of just 22 students
from across Victoria to be awarded a prestigious Wannik Education Scholarship in 2013.
The Wannik Scholarships are a combined initiative of the Department of Education and
Early Childhood Development and the Victorian Aboriginal Education Association,
acknowledging high academic achievement and supporting future aspirations. Education
Minister, the Hon. Martin Dixon presented Stephanie with her scholarship at Queens Hall,
Parliament House last Wednesday. Well done Stephanie!

From the Principal’s Desk…
Last week, I spent a day with our Year 5/6 students and
staff on their Melbourne urban experience camp. Two
slow laps of the Icehouse Skating Rink left me feeling
very sore and sorry for myself, but I was inspired by the
efforts of our students, many of whom threw themselves
into this new experience determined to have fun and
conquer! Our Year 5/6 State hockey finalists took time
out of their camp program to play three very respectable
games on Thursday. Representing the College at this
level is a fine achievement for our students and will be an
experience to remember!
During the upcoming school holidays, our language
teacher Jenna French heads off to the Indonesian island
of Sulawesi, joining a small group of Australian teachers
on a Balai Bahasa study tour. This visit presents a
wonderful professional learning opportunity for Jenna
whilst also allowing for the exploration of opportunities
for our students in the future, including planning for our
first Indonesian trip in 2015. The Indonesian language
program has been a great success thus far, expanding this
term to include our Year 3/4 students. Next year, the
program will be further extended into Year 8 and will
continue to grow until our students have a genuine
language option all the way through to Year 12.
Thank you to our Parents & Friends Association for
launching the fundraising campaign for the relocation of
our historic Junior Campus gates by holding a cake stall
and barbeque at the Federal Election polling station at the
Senior Campus on Saturday 7th September. Thank you
also to the many volunteers who came along to last
Saturday’s Junior Campus Hall working bee. What a
difference a day makes!
Feedback about the recent Senior Campus Parent Teacher
Interviews was very positive, with parents again noting
that the location and format is convenient. Teachers
welcomed the opportunity to talk with students and

families about achievements and next steps. The format
of the mid semester progress reports will be reviewed to
ensure that the most useful and accurate information is
being conveyed.
Term 3 has been ushered to a suitably dramatic end with
our Junior Campus Concert on last night. Congratulations
to our Prep – Year 6 students on their fine performances
and thank you to our staff for the considerable time and
effort invested in this important annual event. I apologise
for any distress caused to students and families by the
film screened at the end of the concert, which contained
disturbing images of dancing teachers and somehow got
past the censors! It is no wonder indeed that the Victorian
State Schools Spectacular was just for students.
On behalf of College students and families, I would like
to extend my appreciation and best wishes to Georgia
Siltman, who has very capably replaced teachers on leave
from the Junior and Senior Campuses during Terms 2
and 3. Her enthusiasm and dedication have been greatly
appreciated.
Best wishes to our Year 12 students who are moving into
the final stages of their VCE, with revision lectures,
workshops and practice exams taking place in the
holidays. Ross Huggard, Chief Assistant Examiner for
English, will be conducting English revision lectures at
Camperdown College for our own students and others
from neighbouring schools. Year 12 students will return
to school for three weeks of revision before moving into
their study break and final exams. We have a number of
Year 11 students undertaking Year 12 subjects this year
also, many of whom are very well placed to succeed.
Happy holidays and I look forward to seeing you all on
Monday 7th October.

Wilson Street News
Another busy term has passed. I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate all students on their efforts this term. Students
have worked very hard to improve their abilities and have embraced the extracurricular opportunities that have been offered. The
behaviour of students has been commendable both within and outside the classroom. They have once again shown that they are caring
and most tolerant of individual differences. The majority of students have ensured that they attend school in appropriate uniform and
take pride in their appearance. Thank you to parents for supporting all facets of your child’s education.
Farewell:
As the term draws to a close, we prepare to farewell three staff members. Georgia Siltman has capably filled Mr Robertson’s shoes
and has ensured that our Mathematics and Accounting students have been fully engaged and challenged. Georgia is taking up a
position at Western Heights Secondary College next term and we wish her well in this position and thank her for her work this term.
Pre-service teachers Lisa Tripp and Chloe Taylor’s energy and enthusiasm has been greatly appreciated as they have worked
alongside Mrs Fox and Ms Grundy in Art and English. We wish them all the best as they transition to full time teaching next year.
R U Ok?
Through the efforts of our Welfare team, BRICKs mentors and the SRC, both staff and students were exposed to the importance of
looking out for each other through celebrating R U Ok Day. Often friends and workmates are the first to notice when something is not
quite right and it is important to listen to concerns without judgement and take time to follow up.
NAPLAN:
The Australian Curriculum, Assessment and Reporting Authority (ACARA) has identified an error in the placement of some of the
national average indicators in the Year 7 NAPLAN student reports. This has required the reprinting of student reports with a
consequent delay in distribution. It is expected that delivery of these reports will not take place until early in Term 4.
National History Challenge – State Level Judging:
Lauren McIlveen, Bernadette Bellman and Ellie Walsh travelled to Melbourne Boys Grammar School on the weekend to be judged at
State level in the National History Challenge. On all accounts, the students acquitted themselves very well. Bernadette and Ellie
wowed the judges with their video on Chrissy Amphlett as did Lauren with her essay on Dorothea McKellar.
Parent Teacher Interviews:
Thank you to all parents who attended Parent Teacher Interviews last week. We really appreciate your interest in your child’s progress
and value the opportunity to work as a team in order to bring about the best results possible for your child.
Year 10 Deakin Experience Day:
Year 10 students visited Deakin University’s Waurn Ponds Campus last week. Students listened to presentations about courses
offered and then participated in workshops on either Psychology, Sports and Exercise Science, Nursing and Law.
Party – Prevent Alcohol and Risk Related Trauma in Youth:
Year 11 Health and Human Development students participated in this outreach program conducted by the Alfred Hospital Trauma
team. The program aims to inform students about the risks associated with alcohol and risk taking behaviours. The program was
confronting and involved the students rotating around five activities – mock trauma and intensive care unit, trauma and burns activity,
trauma survivor talk, a presentation about the 4 steps for life, a talk from a paramedic, rehab activity and a safe partying activity. The
program made students think about the choices that they make and the consequences for these choices. All students enjoyed the
program and found it very worthwhile.
Year 12 Revision:
Most course work has been completed for Year 12 subjects and now students must focus on revision content and preparing responses
for the exams – Year 12 students should be very busy over the holidays! Students have been given a timetable outlining the revision
sessions that have been organised during the first week of the holidays and beyond. Thank you to teachers for putting time aside to
deliver and organise these valuable sessions.

Brooke Street News
The end of another term has quickly arrived! Tomorrow is the last day of Term 3 and we’ll be having a quick assembly at 2.15pm
prior to dismissal at 2.30pm. I wish everyone an enjoyable and restful holiday break and look forward to seeing you all back safe and
well on Monday 7th October.
Year 5/6 Melbourne Camp:
Last week saw our Year 5/6 students, along with Mr Bennett, Ms Norton, Mrs Nelson and Mrs Vagg, head off on their Melbourne
Camp. They were fortunate enough to visit many and varied landmarks in Melbourne, along with some dining in Lygon Street, ice
-3-
skating and a spot of shopping at the Vic Market! My personal thanks goes to the team of teachers for coordinating and facilitating the
camp for our students, Mrs Green for going out of her way to join the group for a day’s activities, as well as a big pat on the back to
our students for conducting themselves in a way that makes us proud to be part of Camperdown College. Well done!
Year 5/6 Hockey 7s State Final:
During their camp last week, eleven of our Year 5/6 students competed in the Victorian State Hockey Championships in Footscray. It
was a huge effort on the part of our team who represented themselves, as well as us as a school, with great pride and dedication. We
are all very proud of your achievements!
AFL 9’s Footy Clinic:
Ms Duynhoven has coordinated two AFL 9’s Footy Clinics for our Year 3 – 6 students over the last two weeks of term so that our
students can learn a new strand of AFL that promotes higher involvement through modified rules. Last week, our 3/4 students were
put through their paces and this week it was the Year 5/6 students’ turn. All students thoroughly enjoyed the challenge of adapting to
the modified rules of AFL 9’s.
Footy Colours Day, Lunch and Match:
Tomorrow is Footy Colours Day at the Junior Campus and all students are invited to wear their footy clothes for a gold coin donation.
All monies raised will be donated to State Schools Relief. Students will also be enjoying their pre-ordered lunch of nibble pies and
juice that has kindly been organised by our dedicated Parents & Friends Association.
To conclude the day and term, the annual staff/parents vs Year 6 students football match will take place on the Junior Campus oval
from approximately 12.30pm. It is not too late to put your name down – if you would like to be a part of the staff/parents team, please
contact Amy in the Junior Campus Office. I am very much looking forward to this event and cannot wait to see some of our past and
future stars in action!
Junior Campus Hall Working Bee:
Many, many thanks to all of the parents and volunteers who came along to the working bee on the weekend to help us polish up the
Junior Campus Hall to finalise its revamp. The hall is looking fabulous from both the inside and out now!
Prep – Year 6 Tree Planting:
Starting today, all Junior Campus students have been involved in tree planting at our revegetation site at Naroghid. This is a fantastic
way for our students to be involved in the preservation of our planet and doing their bit is a very satisfying experience. Our thanks to
Ms Grundy for coordinating this event.
National History Challenge:
A selection of Year 5/6 students have been busily working on projects for the National History Challenge. There was a lot of time
spent on these projects at school and they were presented to be judged within our school. Five students were then selected to go onto
Regional level judging, from which two were chosen to present at State level. Zoe Wilkinson and Jack Helmore travelled to
Melbourne (again!) on Sunday to attend their interview as part of the judging. Both Zoe and Jack were pleased with how they
presented in their interview and we wish them the very best of luck for a great outcome!
Junior Campus Concert:
Last night, I was so privileged to be involved in my first Junior Campus Concert. I was absolutely blown away by the talent that we
have at Camperdown College! Both students and staff put in an amazing effort to practise and refine their skills in order to perform an
amazing show!
We are so fortunate to be part of such an enthusiastic, dedicated and talented school community. Well done to all staff and students
for their efforts; to the students who stepped outside their comfort zones and also those who felt more confident in the spotlight, to the
staff who put in the extra time, effort, organisation and thought to ensure their class were well versed and prepared and also to the
parents who ensured that their children were well rehearsed and dressed on the night!
I’d also like to extend my personal thanks to the staff who, even though they were not successful in their Victorian State School
Spectacular tryouts, were able to give up some of their own time to ensure the night finished with a bang!
Mrs Angela Hall, Junior Campus Assistant Principal
JSC and SRC Footy Colours Day
All students are invited to participate in Footy Colours Day for a gold coin donation tomorrow, Friday 20 th September.
Junior Campus students are permitted to wear their entire footy outfit and enjoy their pre-ordered nibble pies, whilst
Senior Campus students are invited to wear a jumper, jersey or t-shirt with their uniform. Money raised from the Junior

Thank you on behalf of the Parents & Friends Association
I would like to thank all of those people who baked the delicious goodies for the cake stall on the weekend of the Federal Election,
Saturday 7th September. Everything sold really quickly and there were lots of positive comments about how delicious the food looked.
Thank you also to those people who volunteered their time to help man the stalls and cook the barbeque. We also sold out of sausages
on the day and despite the rain, which seems to appear every time we set up the new marquees, the day was deemed extremely
successful.
Kim Helmore, Parents & Friends President
R U Ok Day
Last Friday 13th September, Senior Campus students celebrated R U Ok Day; a national
day to raise awareness of mental health issues in young people and for everybody to ask
family, friends and colleagues are you ok? The day aimed to highlight that staying
connected with others is crucial to our general health and wellbeing.
The student welfare team, Claire Blackstock and Megan Vandenberghe, worked with the
BRICKs and SRC students to arrange the day of celebrations. There was casual dress,
with a dress down theme where students came to school donning their favourite onsies
and pyjamas. At recess, there were cupcakes and hot chocolates for sale. During
lunchtime, students again showed that food is the key to fundraising at Camperdown
College, with a sausage sizzle that was cooked by the BRICKs students. Students were
also invited into the recently refurbished theatrette to watch an episode of The Simpsons.
A total of $345.90 was raised throughout the day, which was a fantastic effort! The
money will be donated to Headspace, Australia’s national youth mental health
foundation. Thank you to everyone who assisted on the day, with a special thank you to
Claire and Megan.

Sulawesi Trip
On Friday 27th September, I will be travelling to Indonesia to participate in an in country study program. I will be spending eleven
nights in Sulawesi, a large island north east of Bali. During that time, I will be touring historic and culturally significant sites and also
spending three days in a school in Kendari, a city in the south east of Sulawesi. There I will be teaching English lessons whilst staying
with a host family from the school.
The main aims of this trip are to develop real teacher – student connections between teachers and students from both Australia and
Indonesia, to boost my Indonesian language skills and to provide me with an opportunity to learn about the history and culture of the
south east Sulawesi area. It is also hoped that as a result of this trip, Camperdown College will be able to establish a sister – school
relationship, with the school in Kendari and to also lay the foundations for a potential study tour open to students in 2015.
Bu Jenna, Indonesian Teacher
Operation Christmas Child
Students have again been busily collecting donations for Operation Christmas Child this year. We have recently reminded Prep – Year
6 students of suitable items that can be donated, but will happily accept any of the following items from the wider Camperdown
College community:
* Something for personal hygiene * Something to wear
* Something to draw/write with
* Something to love
* Something to play with
* Something special
All contributions will be put into little boxes (girl boxes and boy boxes) and they will be sent overseas to
children in third world countries. Please, no earrings or war items can be accepted and all items have to be brand
new. Thank you for your support!

Year 3/4 and 5/6 AFL 9’s Footy Clinics
Students in Year 3 – 6 have been lucky to have Allan Thompson, the AFL
Victorian Development Manager (Hampden Region) recently introduce the
official modified version of Australian Rules Football, known as AFL 9’s. It has
been designed to allow both girls and boys of all ages and abilities play in an
environment where participation, enjoyment and safety are a priority.
The game is played with nine on the field which is divided into three zones, a
mid zone and two scoring zones. A tackling option can be modified to a two
handed touch with disposal within three steps or seconds. A goal scored by the
female forward is worth nine points which makes a female player become more
valued in a game situation!
All the students were actively involved, with lots of laughs and grins when kicks
didn’t quite go where expected! Many were very pleased to see how much they
had improved and surprised at how they thoroughly enjoyed the game, especially
the girls. They walked away feeling a lot more confident in taking on the boys in
a game of footy.

Year 5/6 Hockey 7s State Finals
Last Thursday 12th September, eleven very excited and nervous Year 5/6 students made
their way to Footscray for the Hockey 7s State Finals. The team played very competitive
hockey and only had four goals scored against them in the three games combined!
Unfortunately, this was not enough to be successful in gaining a place on the day. To
have reached this level of competition is indicative of the quality of our team and their
combined ability to play as an awesome force to be reckoned with. Well done, we are
very proud of your efforts!

Prep – Year 2 students make toy cars…
th
On Friday 6 September, Prep – Year 2 students walked to the Senior Campus to build their own toy
cars to coincide with their study of toys. The students were able to work between three activities with
the help of Senior Campus staff and Year 8 students.
Prep – Year 2 students were able to experience what it is like to be a student at the Senior Campus and
use specialist rooms, such as the Wood Work and Art rooms. A huge thanks to Ben McKenzie and
Chelsea Fox for volunteering their time and expertise.

Year 5/6 Melbourne Camp
Bruises, collisions and chills did not deter Year 5/6 students from
trying their hands at ice skating whilst on camp in Melbourne last
week. Our hectic schedule included the Melbourne Museum, the
State Library, Parliament House, the Australian Museum at
Federation Square and Etihad Stadium. Students became efficient
tram travellers and purchased many wonderful bargains at the
Queen Victoria Market.

Camperdown Theatre Company proudly announces auditions for…
Jack and his Amazing Multi-Coloured Beanstalk
A Christmas Pantomime
Written by: Geoff Bamber, Director: Cameron McAdam, Production Manager: Sandra Poole
You know the story… Jack's family are so poor that they must sell their treasured cow. Unfortunately they entrust the job to Jack,
whose profit is a handful of beans. The result is a beanstalk and an attempt to rescue the kidnapped princess.
About seventeen people of a variety ages make up the cast that includes speaking and non-speaking parts such as:
Narrator
Jack
Jack’s Mother & Grandad
Princess
Old Lady
Lizzie (Jack’s sister) & Zak (her boyfriend)
Goblins
Famers and Vet
Baron Smug and his henchmen Kutt & Thrust
Postman
Auctioneer
And what would panto be without a cow!
Panto is lots of fun, often over the top and includes lots of over acting and audience interaction. Good voice projection and clear
diction will be crucial for this production as there will be no microphones and potentially large audiences.
Four daytime shows are planned:
Two x Friday 6th December for local primary schools and possibly aged care (Only business hours requirements)
Two x Saturday 7th December for the general public
The show will run around fifty Minutes.
Limited rehearsals where not all cast will be needed for every rehearsal will run before the VCE exams on October 6th, 8th, 13th, 15th,
20th & 22nd, then a break over VCE exams, followed by a short but very solid rehearsal schedule including November 17th, 19th, 21st,
23rd, 24th, 26th, 28th, 30th, December 1st, 4th, 5th.
Auditions are on Sunday 22nd September from 2pm – 5pm at the Theatre Royal. At the audition you’ll be asked to read a part/s.
The script for the show can be read on line at http://www.lazybeescripts.co.uk/Scripts/script.aspx?iSS=54

Heart of Corangamite Parents/Carers Survey
Heart of Corangamite is a community based, health development initiative promoting physical activity and healthy eating in young
children and their families. The project, which is a joint effort of local government, health, education and community agencies, is
currently spending time in the community taking stock of what is currently happening; gathering information about issues or factors
that may be making it hard for kids and families to eat well and be active as they go about their daily lives. The survey takes less than
ten minutes to complete and all data gathered is confidential and de-identified.
We are asking all parents and carers who have children at the Junior Campus to complete the survey either by collecting a hard copy of
the survey from the Junior Campus Office or going online at https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/MRPSG59.
Complete the survey and provide your contact details to go in the draw to win a family pass to Australia’s Best Children’s Festival Fun
4 Kids in Warrnambool. We have three to give away. Visit www.fun4kids.com.au for more information. Please note: contact details are
