Strengthening School Community Relationships
Good relationships within the school community give students a greater chance of success. There will be times when
people have concerns about what happens at school. When this happens, we would like to encourage an open dialogue
with you. To hear your concerns and work out how to address them, we have established grievance procedures.
Your child’s teacher is usually your first point of call. If the matter involves more than just one teacher you should be
talking with the Year Level Coordinator who is overseeing the year level that your child is in. Often this person is not
immediately available but they will return your call or make an appointment with you.
In the event of a grievance please use the following guidelines:
Steps:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Arrange a time to speak to the relevant teacher/s about the problem.
Please do not enter school classrooms or offices about a major grievance without prior arrangement.
Let the teacher know what you consider to be the issue.
Allow a reasonable time for the issue to be addressed.
If the grievance is not addressed arrange a time to speak with your child’s Year Level Coordinator.
Our Year Level Coordinators are: Junior School Senior Leader P-5 Sally Putnam, Year 6, 7 - Kyri Markou,
Year 8 - Anne Ryan,Year 9, 10 - Robin Parsons,Year 11, 12 - Stephen Miles
6. If the matter has not been addressed to your satisfaction please refer the matter to a Sub School Leader
Sally Putnam Junior School, Celina McKenzie Middle School and Lyn Davis Senior School who will involve
Deputy Principal Roy Page and the Principal as required.
7. If you are still unhappy, please arrange a time to discuss the issue with the Education Director.
Parents with a grievance about School Policy should:
1. Arrange a meeting time with the Principal to discuss your concern.
2. Allow reasonable time frame for the issue to be addressed.
3. If you are still unhappy arrange a time to resolve the issue with the Education Director
Principles:
• Everyone should be treated with respect
• Meetings to discuss grievances will be suspended if any person behaves in
an insulting or offensive manner.

FUN AT THE ADELAIDE FRINGE
(Front Cover image: EALD students visit the Adelaide Fringe)
If you were watching Channel 9 news two weeks ago you may have seen
some of our EALD students at a performance by the Trash Test Dummies
in the Garden of Unearthly Delights as part of the Adelaide Fringe.

Around our
School
We were there as winners of a state wide competition held at the end of
last year. Our creative students used their memories from our excursion
to the Fringe Street Theatre in 2015 and worked on two entries: a model
of the famous Spiegeltent with their memories inside and a short film in
which students recreated performances they saw at the Street Theatre.
Our prize included an all expenses day at the Adelaide Fringe, including
a performance by the Trash Test Dummies and lunch at the Fringe Club,
which is usually reserved for performers only.

Junior School
Channel 9 filmed parts of the performance and then interviewed two
of our Year 11 students, Adelina Dusabe and Ariana Selimaj, who spoke
confidently with little warning! If you missed us on the day, you can see
the Channel 9 clip on the school’s website.

When we arrived back at school students completed a “See Think

Community News
SEE – I saw…….
acrobatics mixed with comedy
unbelievable tricks and stunts
cute lamps, Chinese lanterns, umbrellas and heart locks in the Garden of
Unearthly Delights
backflips and frontflips
hilarious comedians, who kept me laughing out loud
The Trash Test Dummies sweeping rubbish while they were doing flips
and tricks
Street Art in the lanes off Rundle Street
a stage full of rubbish and wheelie bins
balloons, bouncy balls and crash helmets
performers standing on each other’s heads and squeezing themselves into wheelie bins
action stunts and tricks
performers from the Fringe having a BBQ in the Fringe Club and relaxing
THINK – I thought…….
The Fringe Club was stylish. It looked like an open air 5 star resort.
The Trash Test Dummies were fun and great.
the performers looked athletic.
the day was really entertaining and funny.
it must be difficult to juggle and do flips and tricks with wheelie bins.
the performers were professional gymnasts because they made difficult tricks
look easy.
the tent in the Fringe Club looked like a giant bouncy castle.
the performance was excellent, fantastic with awesome actions and entertaining
stunts.
WONDER – I wondered……..
how the performers trained for the tricks.
how long the performers practise for each week.
if the performers do other types of performances.
how the performers met.
which country the performers are from.
what a Fringe performer’s lifestyle is like.
which countries the performers travel to.
how the performers remember all the different parts of the show.
when the performers started performing.
what the Garden of Unearthly Delights is like in the evenings and on weekends.
if all the performers meet each other at other festivals around the world.
As you can see from the photos, this was a fun, exciting and well deserved reward and is a perfect example of one
way our EALD students continually live our school value of “Having A Go”. I couldn’t be more proud of them!
Many thanks to Dick Glacken,Year 6/7 parent Mrs Tarighat and Jessica Powell, one of our 2015 Pre-Service
teachers, who joined us on the excursion.

AROUND OUR SCHOOL
HARMONY DAY
A Message from the Junior School Student Counsellor:
Harmony Day - 21st March 2016: We are all different, yet we are the same.
To all Junior School Parents and Caregivers,
Harmony Day will be celebrated on Monday, 21st March this year.
Our day will begin with a Junior School Harmony Day Assembly at 9:30am.
This will be held in the Junior School Upstairs Common Area and you are welcome to come along and enjoy items performed by our students.
All Junior School students are encouraged to wear ORANGE on the day.
Our school community is made up of diverse cultural and language backgrounds.
Harmony Day is an ideal day us to focus on the meaning of harmony and understanding. It gives us a message that we can keep in our hearts
and actions throughout the year.
Accepting everyone, caring for others and appreciating the differences amongst us are three key messages of living in harmony.
Our diversity is truly our strength. Let’s celebrate as one!
With kind regards
Gianna Slater
WELCOME TO OUR INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS
This term we’ve welcomed two new international students to The Heights – Finn Callsen from Germany,
and Tasuku Ono from Japan. Please make them feel welcome if you see them around
the school!
Bob Powell - International Program Manager
Hello, I am Tasuku Ono. “Tasuku” means wings of a bird in Japanese. I came from Japan, and have lived in
Adelaide for a few weeks. I’m going to live in Adelaide for a whole year. What amazed me most after arriving was
that there was a lot of grass and trees in the city and the school. I thought students in Adelaide were studying
along with nature. I knew next to nothing about Adelaide and my school before arriving, so I try to adjust to my
school life now. One of the impressions I have of this school is that it has a lot of energy to do anything. It has a large number of students from
Preschool to Year 12, there are many students hanging out with their friends and they channel their efforts into classes as well. The other impression
I have is that I am able to learn in various ways in a class. We have devices to search about subjects, and the teachers use electronic whiteboards
and their computers in class. This helps me study easier. I hope to be able to communicate with my friends as I please by the end of this year.
- Tasuku Ono, SS07
Before I came to Australia I was not sure how the school would work; is it easier or is it harder? I had no idea. The students at The Heights School
are very helpful and friendly so it was not so difficult to find new friends. Now after 5 weeks I know that school here is a little bit easier than in
Germany, but that is very good for me. I hope that I can learn better English and that I can make some more new friends.
- Finn Callsen, 903

CF7 AND CF8 - WORKING TOGETHER IN HARMONY
Every year Australians Celebrate Harmony Day on the 21st of March and the grade 3/4 students from CF7 and CF8 have begun
investigating what it means to work together in harmony.
The theme for Harmony Day this year is ‘diversity is our strength’ and the classes together have been focusing on how each student
and teacher comes to school with different strengths and abilities. By working together, we can share our views and ideas in a
respectful and insightful way.
The students have also been working together to create a brilliant display between the two classrooms which celebrates our diversity
and friendship. Our aim is to continue to work together in harmony inside the classroom and encourage harmonious relationships in
the yard. We are looking forward to celebrating Harmony Day on Monday 21st of March.

YEAR 6/7 INDONESIAN CLASSES
Using coordinates to identify a
location on a map and recognising key
geographical features has been a focus
in the year 6/7 Indonesian classes this
term. With Indonesia being such a
close neighbour and the most popular
international tourist destination for
Australians, we have been exploring a
little more about it. Students identified
one of the many Indonesian islands using
a set of mystery coordinates. They then
researched the geographical aspects
of this island including the volcanoes,
waterways and major cities.
I used to think… Now I think….
I used to think Indonesia was one big
island and now I know it’s a lot of
islands. - Liam Gray
Indonesian is one of the easiest
languages to learn.
(Pictured: Allycia Angeles and Michaela Schultz)
I now know that Indonesia is lots of little islands and I used to think Bali was the main tourist place but now know there
are lots more.
- McKenzie Walden
I now know it is very tropical.
I used to think everyone in Indonesia spoke English and now I know that they have 100, 00’s languages. - Ben Appleton
I used to think that Bali was a big island but now I know it’s quite small compared to some of the others. - Gabrialla Seed
I used to think Bali was a wealthy, big and individual country but now I know it is smaller and a part of Indonesia. - Samara
Fenn
I didn’t think there were many people living in Java and now I know there are millions. - Samual Leventis
I thought Indonesian was further away from Australia but now I know it’s quite close.- Jordan Horsell

MIDDLE SCHOOL
YEAR 6/7 RACES TO THE CLIPSAL 500
On the 3rd of March, Year 6/7 students from classes 6/704 and 6/703 participated in a Mathematics related excursion to the Clipsal 500.
The goal of the excursion was to take in the atmosphere of the event, gather data, make observations and have fun! In the lead up to the
Clipsal 500 students all planned a Mathematical based task linked to the event.
Leaving just after 9am, we took advantage of free public transport to get to and from the event. The buses were jam packed with many
people going to the event. Students were excited about the opportunity to go to the Clipsal 500 and they enjoyed the day immensely,
especially given that it was a free event for schools. We were also part of a record breaking group of more than 60 schools to attend in
one day!
Some highlights were the Roulette Plane Show, Defence Force display, Porsche races, stunt bikes, stunt truck races and for some lucky
groups, their free sunglasses and face painting. Many students were surprised by the massive hike in prices at food stalls. Some students
used this as a focus for their Mathematics task when they returned to school. It was great way to enjoy ourselves and learn at the same
time. Lunch was another highlight, meeting up on the concert oval to eat and see Reece Mastin and At Sunset perform for the free
lunchtime concert.
A few people from Mr. Gray’s class gave us their thoughts about the Clipsal 500 excursion: “It was the best day of my life,” one of them
said. Another student thought “It was exciting but loud.” Generally, everyone thought it was an awesome day, although the weather was
hot.
Students now have a greater knowledge of the Clipsal 500 event, and this will assist in our Mathematics assignments in the coming weeks.
We wouldn’t have been able to go without our amazing teachers! Thank you Mr. Markou, Ms. Roberts and Mr. Gray for organizing the
excursion. Also, a huge thanks to the many parent volunteers who helped us throughout the day:
6/703 - Ian Bleakley, Jane Payne, Karen Willis, Nathan Whitrod, Sarah Adams, Shivali Navale and Todd Graham.
6/704 - Adrian Marschall, Anusua Ghosh, Darrin Marek, Debbie Biggs, Jenny Whyte, Julie Kim, Karyn Hill , Tanya Gilliam and Vicki Wilson
All in all, the students who went loved the day and will treasure the memories for years to come. It was a fantastic day and we would all
love to go again next year.
By 6/704, 6/705, Mr. Markou, Ms. Roberts and Mr. Gray

MIDDLE AND SENIOR SCHOOL SPORTS DAY - FRIDAY 11TH MARCH
A reminder to all families/caregivers that the Heights School Middle/Senior School Sports Day is on this Friday, 11th March (Week 6).
The day is a great day for all students. As well as the traditional athletic events, we will be holding novelty events (sack races, bocce and tug
of war), and sport games (basketball, netball, volleyball and five-a-side soccer). The range of different events means all students should enjoy
the day choosing the events they feel most comfortable with.
In this newsletter you will find a map of where events are located. The whole day is being held at the Senior School oval, which is at the
eastern side of the school (near Ladywood Road). This newsletter also has a program for the day. Please note that a few events on the
program has been slightly altered from the last newsletter including the 800m runs being made early in the day.
Parents are encouraged to come along and enjoy the day with the school community. There will be a sausage sizzle/drinks and ice-cream
stall, run by the school’s Parents and Friends Committee.
Please ensure your child/children come to school with a hat, plenty of water, recess/lunch and some sunscreen. Students are to wear their
team colours for the day. For students wanting to put coloured hair spray into their hair, please make sure they do this at home (not on the
school grounds due to possible asthmatic reactions by other students).
The House colours are based on the Constellations and they are:
Yellow AQUILA (The Golden Eagle)
Red
CORVUS (The Red Crow)
Green
DRACO (The Green Dragon)
Blue
HYDRA (The Blue Water Snake)
I look forward to seeing many parents/caregivers.

SCHOOL CROSSING MONITORS
Recently your child’s school took part in School Crossing Monitor Training conducted
by the South Australian Police. This involves students in years 5, 6 and 7 being trained
by Road Safety Educators from the SA Police Road Safety Section. After the training
is complete the student will receive a Certificate of Authority issued on behalf of the
Commissioner of Police which, under the Road Traffic Act 1961 authorises the student
to work as school crossing monitor. The certificate authorises the student to stop traffic
using a Stop Sign or using Pedestrian Actuated Traffic Lights, as well as give reasonable
directions to pedestrians for the safe and efficient movement of traffic at or on the
crossing as in their opinion is necessary.

Club Patron - Jennifer Rankine MP
!
The training involves learning how to safely stop vehicles at a school crossing and
performing safety assessments on when it is safe for children to cross the road (this
includes asking the monitors to check that all vehicles have stopped prior to pedestrians
walking onto the crossing). The session also includes safe sign handling techniques and
positioning within the crossing.
It is extremely important that all people (including parents) use the crossings and
become good road safety role models, by following the School Crossing Monitor’s
directions, not only for their safety but the safety of all students and road users.
