Year 12 – Academic
Success - 2012
The performance of students completing Year
12 subjects in 2012 was again outstanding
across all five Year 12 subject areas.
Year 12 Chemistry results were sensational with a special
mention to the students and staff of 2012 in which they
achieved a total of 13 merits of the 56 offered across
the state.
Australian
Curriculum 2013
The Science Faculty has prepared for the
introduction of the ‘Australian Curriculum’
this year.
We have been the first Faculty to deliver this curriculum
via e-book as our Year 8 cohort this year has purchased
laptop computers. The text we have chosen is ‘Science
Essentials’ distributed by Macmillan Publishers. Thank
you to Paul Gavini in sorting out some of the ongoing
technological problems.
These results are a testament to the solid Science program
we offer in Years 8-10 and the quality curriculum that is
offered by the Science Faculty.

SCIENCE OPPORTUNITIES
FOR MARRYATVILLE HIGH
SCHOOL STUDENTS
Science students at Marryatville High
School are given opportunities to further
their Science experiences by participating
in activities both within and outside
the classroom.
Physics
ICT in Physics
As part of my ongoing research into ICT’s in science,
I stumbled upon some new software called “Tracker” from the
Open Source Physics organisation. The software allows the
user to construct calibrated measurements from video and still
photographs during practical activities. Though the software
is designed for the university student, we have been able
to apply it within our Year 11 & 12 Physics students with
great success.
Conceptual Application
The instantaneous data processing and the ability to
visualise data and graphs as it is generated, which was
not possible using traditional techniques, has dramatically
improved the level of student’s understanding of motion and
its associated concepts.
As far more data for analysis is able to be produced, to
millimetre accuracy, student results during practicals have
been to a high degree of accuracy never before achieved.
With reduced levels of random and systematic errors,
students are finding it easier to understand the links between
theory and practice.
Students have also been developing their skills in the use
of spreadsheets in better context, as data is imported from
the Tracker software. Students are using the mentioned
multimedia as supporting evidence of tasks undertaken
whilst demonstrating safe work practices.
Physics Programme
In 2012 a decision was made to modify the Year 12
investigative design task to incorporate this new technology
and the building of their projectile launchers. Students have
shown greater engagement and simply enjoyed the major
design investigation task worth 10%. As demonstration of
the enthusiasm and commitment of our students, during the
Term 1 holiday’s, they came back over 3 days to retest and
process their data.
The reports that students have produced are of a higher
standard than previous years and the data that has been
produced for analysis in their reports will demonstrate to
moderators a higher level of analysis and evaluation.
In conjunction with the modified Year 12 course, the Year 11
Physics students have also had the opportunity to develop
the skills of this new method of data collection and analysis
ready for its application as they progress to Year 12.
Thankyou
I wish to thank fellow teachers David Graham and Roger
Shortland for being students themselves in learning this
new technology and its application to their classes after
significant investment of their time.
A special thankyou goes out to the members of the P&F
Committee that funded the purchase of a second high speed
camera. This has allowed better student access during lessons.

‘Zoosnooze’
National Youth Science Forum – 2014
‘Zoosnooze’ in Term 4 is an opportunity for Year 8’s to
experience the new Adelaide Zoo Education Centre where
students camp on the first level of the Education Centre.
Unfortunately we have only been allocated 140 places.
Allocation of the available places will be on a ‘first in’ with
their payments. Keep an eye on the ‘Zoosnooze’ information
that will come home later in Term 2 via their Science teacher
and through ‘Moodle’. The camps will run from Weeks 3-7
in Term 4 and will include an overnight stay.
Current Year 11 students will be applying for the 2014
National Youth Science Forum. They learn how to make
informed decisions about courses and careers in the
sciences and gain a professional skill set to help them
realise their potential. A high turn-out at a recent meeting
indicated great interest in this program. Applications are due
at the end of May, 2013. The Rotary Club of Burnside has
assisted the costs of attending this career changing conference.
The individual cost for a student to attend NYSF is $2,395.00.
The Rotary Club of Burnside is prepared to support/sponsor
successful students for 50% of the cost. We are indebted to
the continued support of Rotary. Stephen Samarzia was the
successful applicant and attended the Perth, NYSF in January
2013 – please see his report in Newsletter 2, Term 1.
Year 12 students – DNA Excursion
Get into Genes
In Term 1 Year 12 Biology students attended a Get Into
Genes workshop at the University of Adelaide’s Waite
Campus. The workshop enabled students to focus on the
Macromolecules section of the SACE Stage 2 Biology
course. They were able to explore inheriting traits using
conventional breeding techniques in plant breeding.
Model DNA replication and the techniques and equipment
involved in studying and manipulating DNA. They worked
with the science staff who are conducting research into
transformation and genetic modification of plants. This
gave them the opportunity to get an insight into working
in a science research laboratory using latest technology
and equipment. They enjoyed working with equipment
doing hands on activities and seeing how theory and
practice are correlated. They were also given practical and
relevant examples of current research being undertaken in
South Australia.

Marryatville High
school’s Big Band
wins again!
Marryatville High School’s Big Band 1 was
awarded 1st place in Division One of the
Generations in Jazz National Stage Band
Award for an unprecedented 3rd year
in a row. Big Band 2 won 3rd place in
Division Two and the Pops Vocal Ensemble
won 3rd place in the Division One of the
Vocal Competition.
Marryatville High School entered three big bands and
two jazz vocal ensembles into the competition: 75
students in total. All of our students performed at their
best and achieved great results in their sections. The
junior students, especially, learned the high standard of
achievement possible with focussed hard work.
The students who participated have not only enjoyed a
festival of great music, but have learned how to improve
their own playing.The growing success of instrumental
and vocal jazz at Marryatville High School, has been
accomplished by the excellent music program and
dedicated staff at the Special Interest Music Centre
and the Instrumental Music Service. Despite many
and varied changes in education in SA, our teachers
continue to dedicate themselves to
the musical education of the students
which include many extra hours of
work above their teaching loads.
Thanks to the music staff Jasmin
Bowden, Emma Borgas and Jason
Hammond and Rob Chenoweth and
David Winnall from the Instrumental
Music Service.
Amelie Peters at Cabaret
The weekend competition includes workshops and two
big concerts of outstanding jazz talent including James
Morrison, Gordon Goodwin, The Idea of North and the
Big Phat Band from Los Angeles. Notable was the presence
of MHS SIMC past students who themselves are now
professional musicians: Naomi Crellin and Sally Cameron
from the Idea of North, guitarist James Muller, not to mention
those who now teach at the many schools represented.
A highlight of the weekend was the opportunity to
listen to and learn from world renowned composer and
musician Gordon Goodwin and the Big Phat Band.
Their masterful performances and excellent music was
supported by wise words of advice to students.
Notable on the weekend was Year 11 student David
Goodwin who was chosen to be a finalist for the James
Morrison Jazz Scholarship. David played extremely well,
and although he did not win, he demonstrated a high level
of musicianship in a National cohort of 20 year olds.

Choral Concert
Jazz Cabaret
This year’s Choral Concert was held at
Pilgrim Church on April 8th. The event was
well attended by parents and the wider
community. Music Captains Louis Cann and
Madeleine Stewart were announcers for
the evening.
In order to help prepare students for the
Generations in Jazz competition the Music
Faculty presents a Jazz Cabaret. This year it
was held on the last day of Term 1, Friday
April 12th at the Latvian Hall.
The Senior Choir includes students from Year 10 Special
Music, Year 11 and 12 Musicianship. They sang the
Geographical Fugue by Toch conducted by Leonie
Hempton. This was followed by Totus Tuus by Gorecki
conducted by Emma Borgas. This polyphonic work for
double choir was very challenging, but effective.
The Junior Choir performed a very effective composition
by Jasmine Lim called Pentatonic Allelujah. This was
followed by Don’t Get Around Anymore arranged
by Emerson.
The Chamber Choir under the direction of Leonie
Hempton and accompanied by Jason Hammond
performed Sure On This Shining Night by Barber and
Animal Crackers by the popular comtemporary choral
composer Whitacre.
The Boys’ Choir took on the challenge of singing
Australian composer Jarman’s Pemulwuy, which tell of the
heroic Aboriginal freedom fighter of the same name. This
work was accompanie by Tahlia de Corso.
The Girls’ Choir was conducted by Emma Borgas and
they sand Lullaby of Birdland arranged by Strommen and
Lennon’s Imagine. The choir was accompanied in turn by
David Goodwin, Louis Cann, and new Maths teacher
Joel Ang.
The Pops Vocal Ensemble and Swing Tones were
both preparing for the imminent Generations in Jazz
competitions. Swing Tones is directed by Jasmin Bowden
and Emma Borgas. They sang Whisper Not by Erikson
and It’s You by SIMC old scholar and member of Idea of
North Naomi Crellin.
Pops Vocal Ensemble performed So In Love by Cole
Porter and arranged by Jason Hammond, and Keep My
Supper Warm ‘Til I Get Back by Andrew Piper, also from
the Idea of North.
The event was put on with the help of the Friends of
Music committee and other parent and staff help. We
especially thank Hillary Webber and Helen Coulson
without whom the preparation for the event would
be impossible.
The evening began with Big Band 3 conducted by
Jasmin Bowden. They performed their competition charts
Ain’t Misbehaving, Here’s that Rainy Day and Hit the
Bricks. Combo Full Stop followed with a number of jazz
standards. The evening highlighted three students who
are preparing for their participation at the Adelaide
Cabaret Festival. They each sang a solo accompanied
by a combo of Jason Hammond and guests John Aué on
bass and Tom von Einem on drum kit. The soloists were
Sarah-Jo Bramfit, Naom Belet, and Amelie Peters.
The Swing Tones performed their competition repertoire
Whisper Not, It’s You, followed by Royal Flush (David
Goodwin’s professional Jazz Combo).
Big Band 2, directed by Dave Winnall performed
the competition pieces The Nearness of You Arr. John
Clayton, Bistro Latino by Jeff Jarvis, and Hell’s Kitchen
by Erwin. Pops Vocal then performed their competition
pieces to a hushed audience. The spectators were very
impressed by Jason Hammond’s arrangement of Cole
Porters’ So In Love.
The evening was rounded off by Big Band who wowed
the audience with The Clam, Ellington’s Sounds of Love,
and Adelaide Tom Pulford’s Push the Button.
A special thanks to all who helped make the evening
a great success, especially on the last evening of the
term and to IMS teachers Rob Chenoweth and Dave
Winnall for their continued support of our students and
the Jazz program.
Jason Hammond continued conducting the Concert
Choir. They performed Rutter’s Blow, Blow Thou Winter
Wind, Bogoroditsye Dyevo by Rachmaninov, and Baba
Yetu from Civilisation IV by Christopher Tin.

It’s not about the bike,
it’s about the biker!
After weeks of hard training, the Marryatville High School
Road Cycling Team (The Rouleurs) headed to McLaren
Vale to take part in the highly anticipated SSSSA Cycling
Tour. With its nine exceptional members, Marryatville
was the third best represented school at the tour.
The two day, four stage event culminated on Friday
May 10th with high spirits and phenomenal weather.
Thomas Beddome won second place in the final tally
count for the A grade while James Fuller came 4th in the
C grade. William Madden’s first attempt at competitive
cycling landed him a tied for 5th position in the D grade.
Congratulations to Thomas Beddome for also winning
the most aggressive rider award which netted him a
priceless jersey signed by Gerraint Thomas of Team Sky.
It was a fantastic first effort for Marryatville High School.
We hope to win the schools classification next year and
invite girls of all ages and abilities to join us for training
for next year’s tour.
Congratulations to Thomas Beddome, James Fuller,
Johnathan Gillard, Ashley Kobayashi, Sam Kovacic,
Zach Lane, William Madden, Lewis Mau and Jason
Yuen for a great effort. Let’s do it again next year! Thank
you to the parents who helped transport students and
bikes on the day, the day would not have worked as
seamlessly without them.

EDEN PARK GARDENING GROUP
We had beautiful weather for our working bee and planted a dozen punnets of winter flowering
annuals around the base of 13 trees to provide colour in the garden over the winter period
and planted a Magnolia tree.
We then enjoyed a sumptious morning tea. We would like to thank the following parents, staff and students for
attending. The Ouwerkerks, Sharon and Mackenzie, Markus Trezise ,Di Banbury, Coral Campbell, and Peter Turner.
Early this year the Garden Group had the pleasure of donating $1,000 to the Music faculty piano fund, this money
came from the plant stall and gate takings from the Open Garden scheme held in May 12 last year. This is a great
result thanks to the help of members of our garden group.
The next working bee will be held on Saturday 1st June from 9.00am.
There is no obligation to stay the full three hours as any help will be appreciated, we also have a variety of jobs that
you can choose. Enjoy being part of maintaining these wonderful gardens.
Thankyou from the coordinators.

Aquatics Camp # 1- 2013
In week two of this term the boys in year nine
had the opportunity to go on an aquatics
camp outside of Murray Bridge.
Everyone was divided into two groups, a camp a. and a camp
b. which were going at separate times, the first from Monday
to Wednesday lunch and the second from Wednesday till
Friday. The year nine girls are going in week four.
After arriving at the campsite we unloaded our gear and
without further ado were promptly thrown headfirst into
the first of the activities for that day. Everybody had been
put into groups of six and now these groups went out with
their assigned instructor do either catamaran sailing, knee
boarding or kayaking. It is safe to say that after spending
the rest of the day on the river there was no one who wasn’t
feeling cramped, sore or completely frozen.
When a relative state of dryness had once again settled over
the camp the tents were set up. The time between those who
got their tent up first and those who got theirs up last was
slightly over an hour. For those who finished quickly there
was a period of time for resting until dinner was served.
And what a dinner it was! All of our camp food was
prepared and cooked by the wonderful Isabelle. Apart
from being very good there was also more than enough
to go around (even for 24 teenagers) which is something
of a rarity amongst camp food. Our meal time was sadly
interrupted when an entire table leapt out of their seats
yelling and screaming because they had seen a moth. I
mean for goodness sake IT’S JUST A MOTH! Bunch of
sissies the lot of them, I mean, what is the world coming to?
After dinner there were a range of activities set up. Scrabble
with the teachers, watching a movie, sitting around the
campfire toasting marshmallows and roasting chestnuts or
trying to become a member of the polar bear society (a dice
puzzle in which the player must work out the rules for finding
ice holes and polar bears) were all options. This continued
until it was time to try and sleep, something which many
boys substituted for talking until the early hours.
As the sun rose above the motor way across the river those
who were still in bed (pretty much everyone except for me
and the teachers) were woken by the horrendous noise of
Mr Tidd spectacularly failing to play the bugle. Soon after
there was breakfast and then the activities now with small
boat handling, water skiing and canoeing thrown into the
mix. This day was full of grumpy teenagers complaining
about their lack of sleep, something which they believed the
world was to blame for and not themselves, even though
they were the ones who had stayed up until three talking
about whatever it is boys talk about at three in the morning.
It was also full of spectacular crashes and splashes as we
all tried to learn how to water-ski, and many a curse when
those canoes just wouldn’t turn in the right direction.
Several hours later a bunch of weary, cramped and cold
guys trudged up out of the river only to realise that there
were limited showers to go around. A mad dash ensued
after this where despite the fact that they were all full, most
of the boys rushed to the showers in the hope that there was
magically one which was going to be free. There wasn’t.
Then dinner and activities as the night before. Bedtime (or
rather the lack of it) and before you could say ‘Allons-y
Alonso’ Mr Tidd was playing his bugle again much to the
distress of some of the boys.
We had one final free choice activity after breakfast (nearly
everyone did knee boarding and water skiing) and then
we packed up the tents (the
time in-between those who
packed up first and those who
finished last was a whopping
two and a half hours), had
lunch and bade farewell
to the campground. Most
people enjoyed the camp
(with exception to the bugle
playing) and the experiences
that people had will stay with
them for a long time. It was
overall a success.

As the second term gets under way, the
SRC is planning a range of activities. We
intend to continue the lunchtime music and
barbecue events as these provide students
with an opportunity to gather in a positive
social situation.
We are looking at holding a non-uniform day in Week
4 to raise funds for Heart Children. We have already
collected over $150 through our cake stall at Sports Day
for Animals Australia
The issue of non-uniform days has raised some discussion
of late. There is a concern from some students that these
days can become ‘fashion days’ where there can be
a sense of competition and judgement. The SRC are
conducting some research into this and will consider
theme days as a possible alternative.
Fill The Boxes
Last year we ran a successful project to fill the boxes that are
used to deliver the Year 12 tops with second hand clothes
and donate them to the Salvation Army. This will happen
again this year, so look for more details later in the term.
Butterfly Project
We will be supporting this venture again this year. Last
year we sent hundreds of pairs of ‘pre-loved’ shoes to
Africa. We will be pleading to all those ‘Imeldas’ out
there later in the term!!
Amnesty Group
One of our ex-students, Georgina Wignall has invited us
to be part of a growing Amnesty group amongst schools
in the region. A conference will be held on May 16 and
we are aiming to send a group along.
Feeling of Worth
The SRC Executive is currently undergoing training in the
delivery of the ‘Feeling of Worth’ programme to the Year
8 Home Groups over the next few weeks

organising the Operation Flinders team and provide support for
our busy Student Life Program and Wellbeing Team. Currently I
am training our SRC student team in delivering positive mental
health “SenseAbility” program to all Year 8 to 11 home groups.
Marryatville High School Student Life Program
Research suggests that adolescents in secondary schooling are:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
xperiencing emotional, physical and sexual changes
E
Learning to form, articulate and manage relationships with parents, teachers and peers
Keen to develop greater interdependence with peers and independence in their lives
Becoming aware that they can make changes for themselves and influence others
Questioning schooling and their engagement with schooling
Reflecting on who they are, where they belong, what they value and where they are going
Developing their own voice, often challenging the voices of their parents, teachers and society at large
Aiming for a stronger sense of belonging through participation in wider adolescent cultures
At risk of accessing and experimenting with more adult activities that can include drugs, alcohol, cars etc.
The Student Life Program at Marryatville High School aims to assist students to develop skills (specific to each year level) that
will assist them to cope effectively with the above mentioned dynamics. The program aims to:
• Improve students’ sense of wellbeing and connectedness
• Engage students in creating a learning community of positive relationships
• Promote high expectations for positive behaviours and meaningful involvement
• Provide opportunities for students to learn essential skills for a safe, healthy and productive life
• Increase student knowledge about themselves and their learning goals
• Optimise student pathways and support transitions
• Support students in the preparation and completion of their Personal Learning Plan (part of their SACE)
• Engage students in the practice of good citizenship through cooperation and service to others
• Strengthen strategic connections with other organisations in our community
• Increase student engagement, achievement, attendance and retention
The Term 2 Student Life Program is outlined on the following page.

Year 9 Student Life
Program – Red Cross BELS
First Aid Accreditation
As part of our Year 9 Student Life Program,
our entire Year 9 cohort is completing the
Red Cross BELS First Aid Course.
This comprises of two parts – an online study component
and a 4-hour practical session with a Red Cross trainer.
On Thursday May 2, half of the Year 9 students (120
students) successfully completed the practical session.
They developed skills such as CPR, use of a defibrillator,
the treatment of bites and stings and the treatment of
different kinds of burns. The students now have the
BELS qualification which will certainly come in handy!
The second half of the Year 9 group will complete the
practical session on Monday in Week 5.
