The staff have all commented on the enthusiasm and commitment to success being demonstrated so far. They look terrific in their uniforms and we thank you for supporting our school in this. Another area where we need your co-operation is in regards to the procedures for parents/ visitors who wish to have access to school grounds. Most families have established effective pick-up and drop-off routines, however parents need to be aware that they may only access the school through signing in at the front office. In the afternoons, parents are not permitted to wait for students under the Junior Secondary building or outside classrooms unless they have a specific reason to do this and have signed in at the front office. You would appreciate that we have these procedures for the good management of the school, the security of your students and because it is a health and safety matter. Should parents/carers wish to communicate with teachers, they should make initial contact either by phoning 3824 9222 or by email and then appointments can be made. It is also not appropriate at any time for a parent to approach anyone else’s student regarding a behavioural issue. If there is an issue you should contact the relevant Deputy Principal and the matter will be dealt with appropriately. Thank you for your support in these matters.

What is the IBDP? It is a rigorous international curriculum delivered in over 115 countries incorporating the best elements of several national educational systems with a focus on academic rigour, an international perspective and the interrelationship of all knowledge. It encourages students across the world to become active, compassionate and lifelong learners who value differences and diversity. What are the benefits of an IB education? The advantages afforded to a student earning an IB Diploma are many. Since the Diploma is internationally recognised, universities throughout the world are eager to admit IB students into their institutions because the IB Diploma demonstrates that a student has knowledge and ability in many academic areas as well as the theoretical and critical understanding of the construction of knowledge.

On Thursday, March 5, the Student Leadership Team, as well as members of our fabulous teaching staff, were invited to attend the Zonta International Women’s Day dinner. Zonta International is an organisation which prides itself on improving the living conditions of women around the world by pursuing various health and education initiatives, such as providing birthing kits, maintaining women's refuges and providing fundraising assistance to local women's networks. The dinner was used as an opportunity to present one of these initiatives, the Zonta International "Young Women in Public Affairs" Award, to recipient Erin Gow from Brisbane Bayside State College. In previous years, Cleveland High's Olivia Hill and Emma Clinnick have been recipients of this award. The night was MC'd by Brisbane's talented Rupert McCall OAM, whose poetry and storytelling provided for a fun and enjoyable evening. Thanks to Zonta for a wonderful evening and for the tireless work you do in supporting women in our community. Madi Nix School Captain Year 9 Geography Excursion to Australia Zoo 30/03/2015 11:43 AM http://clevelanddistrictstatehighschool.cmail2.com/t/ViewEmail/r/329... On March 4, our Year 9 geography students and teachers visited Australia Zoo. This is an important part of preparing for their assessment, which requires them to create their own zoo enclosure and information board. The students did themselves and the school proud, having a funfilled and educational day. Thank you teachers Mr Brennan, Ms McConnell, Mrs Dobson and Miss Potaka for supporting the students on this excursion. We are very excited to see the students’ final submissions for their assessment. Cleveland High at State Beach Volleyball Titles Eight teams of Cleveland High volleyballers competed in the State Schools Beach Championships at Suttons Beach, Redcliffe on March 15 and 16. Best performing teams on the day were the Senior Girls teams where both teams contested medal playoffs. The team of Nicole Grobbelaar, Hannah Gill, Kiah Ryding and Shannon Celliers won the Silver medal, with the other girls’ team placing 4th overall. The boys competitions proved ultra competitive, with not much separating many teams. The boys’ senior team placed a creditable 6th while the pairs team battled over the 2 days and was just edged out of playoff contention. The junior teams found playing on the beach in outdoor conditions a big learning experience but had a great time, winning many sets but 4 of 19 30/03/2015 11:43 AM 5 of 19 http://clevelanddistrictstatehighschool.cmail2.com/t/ViewEmail/r/329... not able to win the matches often enough to make the playoffs. A big thankyou to all students for the positive way they participated and to the team of parents that helped make the event a success for us. BOYS Cleveland senior pairs - Callum Brown, Paulo Haduca Cleveland senior teams - Paulo Haduca, Issac Field,Glenn Araja, Will Gardner, Callum Brown Cleveland junior teams - Ethan Patu, Caiden Stevens, Chester Candelaria GIRLS Cleveland senior teams - Cecilia Le, Holly Fuller, Paris Edmunds, Bree Barber, Cassie Smith, Nicole Grobbelaar, Hannah Gill, Kiah Ryding, Shannon Celliers Cleveland junior teams - Ashlea Coe, Hayley Muller, Katelyn Allan, Lauren Sinnett, Simone Daly-Hayes, Shalayna Pratten Eliza Darvill, Jordin Andersen, Chloe Ramage-Gibson, Ashleigh Evans, Andy Rodger Volleyball Coordinator Cyclone Pam Relief Appeal 30/03/2015 11:43 AM 6 of 19 http://clevelanddistrictstatehighschool.cmail2.com/t/ViewEmail/r/329... Pango Village, just outside Port Vila, took a direct hit when Cyclone Pam crossed Efate, Vanuatu on Friday 13 March. Initial reports and photographs show that the community has been severely affected with many roofs and shacks destroyed, trees uprooted, essential food gardens lost and jobs in jeopardy. Over the past 10 years, Cleveland High School has built a relationship with Pango Village, with groups of staff and students undertaking ambitious projects in the local schools and kindergartens. Staff and students from our Sister School, Pango Centre School, have travelled to Cleveland for PD and expanded education on three occasions. We have had reports of substantial damage at our Sister School, and the Lykuky Kindy building which our 2012 team helped to build has lost part of the roof, fence, windows, and had some playground equipment, toys and books ruined. A number of schools in the areas surrounding our Sister School have had their libraries inundated with water. Attempts to dry the books can only hope to be partially successful. The residents of Pango have received food aid and tarps, but will need help with the cost of more permanent repairs, etc. They will also continue to need help with food for about 3 months until they can start harvesting from their gardens again. We want to show the beautiful people in our Sister School that Cleveland High cares, so we are appealing to all school families, as well as the wider community, to show compassion in two ways. 1) Please could you make a tax deductible donation to help rebuild the schools, kindergartens, village infrastructure and homes of those worst affected, as well as to provide emergency aid where needed? All money raised will go to the relief effort in Pango and surrounding areas. If you are able to make a donation please go to www.beahero.org.au and click on Cyclone Pam Relief. The challenge to our families is to donate what it would cost to buy one, two or more bags of rice! Of course, if you are able to donate enough to help us buy roof sheets and other building materials that would help so much. 2) Please could you start collecting books to be brought to the school in Term 2? We have a plan to get the books to the worst affected schools to help restore their libraries - so vital for a good education. More information about this will be out next term. If you have questions or would like updated information, please contact Chappy Neale on 3824 9239. 30/03/2015 11:43 AM http://clevelanddistrictstatehighschool.cmail2.com/t/ViewEmail/r/329... Chappy Chatter Raffle for Sophia Mendoza Sophia Mendoza is a Year 10 student who is seriously ill with cancer. Sophia’s family need to raise significant funds for further treatments, which are extremely costly. This weekend the school will be selling raffle tickets for an Easter Raffle. The tickets will be sold at Capalaba Central Shopping Centre on Saturday March 28 between 9am and 4pm and at Cleveland on Sunday March 29 between 10am and 2pm. Tickets can also be purchased at the Chaplaincy drop-in centre or front office of the school.

Student Committee This term the student chaplaincy committee held a hot dog sale fundraiser for a Year 9 student who needed medical care in America. They raised $400 for this student. Hot Dog Sale Fundraiser – Tuesday 31 March The committee will hold another hot dog sale on Tuesday 31st March to support the Vanuatu Cyclone Pam Relief Appeal. Students are asked to come along and buy a hot dog. Drinks and iceblocks will also be available on the day. All proceeds from the day will go towards helping out sister school and village in Pango. Trash or Treasure The Trash or Treasure was a great success, raising $2,600 for Chaplaincy. A very BIG THANKYOU to all volunteers who helped out with delivering flyers, setting up, selling and packing up on the day. We really appreciate your continued support. Local Chaplaincy Committee We are still in need of additional committee members for our Local Chaplaincy Committee. The committee meets once a month on a Monday afternoon at 3pm. If you feel that you can support the work of our chaplains in this way, please contact Chappy Heather on 3824 9239 or [email protected]. Our next Local Chaplaincy Committee meeting is this Monday 30 March at 3pm in the Chaplaincy Drop-In Centre. All are welcome. 7 of 19 30/03/2015 11:43 AM 8 of 19 http://clevelanddistrictstatehighschool.cmail2.com/t/ViewEmail/r/329... Collect Dominos for Chaplaincy If you shop at Woolworths, please could you collect and donate the Dominos currently being given away at the tills. The 2016 Vanuatu School Team will sort them into packs to give them to schools and kindies in Vanuatu as classroom equipment. Student Council News Wow, term one has been crazy but fun. The representatives have been working extremely hard. This term we ran the Easter Egg Raffle, ANZAC Bear raffle (money raised goes to Mates4Mates), BBQ at the Cross Country as well as Shave for Cure, Valentine Day Roses and Icy Cups at the swimming carnival.

Joni Edwards Student Council Co-ordinator Students Meet Politicians 30/03/2015 11:43 AM http://clevelanddistrictstatehighschool.cmail2.com/t/ViewEmail/r/329... On Wednesday March 18, students and teachers from Cleveland District State High School had the honour of attending a questions session held by the Hon. Malcolm Turnbull, Minister for Communications and the Hon. Andrew Laming, Member of Parliament. (Pictured above: Teachers and students meet Malcolm Turnbull) During this session, students from schools around the Redlands were able to direct questions relevant to youth and communications to the Minister, whose inclusivity allowed for a thoroughly enjoyable conversation on topics such as gaming and media censorship. The conversation was quite refreshing, as it allowed students an unprecedented opportunity to have our thoughts shared and considered in detail. Overall, the afternoon was interesting and enjoyable, certainly something that I would attend again. Many thanks to the Hon. Malcolm Turnbull, Minister for Communications and the Hon. Andrew Laming, Member of Parliament for taking time out of their busy calendars to host such a fantastic afternoon.

In due course we will be able to have our Graphics and Technology Studies students being involved in the full rapid prototyping design process. A student will be able to start with a hand drawn concept sketch, move to a 3D CAD model and then test out the idea with a physical, scaled 3D printed plastic model – exciting times!

Debating The 2015 Queensland Debating Union Secondary School Competition has commenced and Cleveland is off to a strong start. 30/03/2015 11:43 AM http://clevelanddistrictstatehighschool.cmail2.com/t/ViewEmail/r/329... Our Year 9 team began the season by taking the negative side of the topic, ‘That we should end the Melbourne Cup’ against Iona College. Although they were narrowly defeated, the team gained valuable experience and are gearing up for their next debate. The following week saw Years 10 and 12 debate against Mansfield State High School and Music Industry College respectively. Both teams were on the affirmative side, with the Year 10 team arguing, ‘That we regret the popularity of slum tourism’, while the Year 12 team debated, ‘That we should ban school leavers from travelling overseas for "Schoolies" celebrations’. Congratulations to both teams who skilfully defeated their opponents. Finally, the Year 8/7 team had the difficult task of going up against San Sisto College to take the affirmative side of the topic, ‘That we should ban toys designed for (and marketed to) only one gender’. The students were very nervous as it was their first debate ever. The hard work that they put into preparing their arguments paid off as they argued their way to victory! Congratulations to our teams and coaches for their hard work. We wish you the best of luck for round two of the competition. The English Speaking Union Public Speaking Competition Students in Years 11 and 12 have the opportunity to enter a public speaking competition where they can compete against other students for the chance to win up to $250! The English Speaking Union Public Speaking Competition requires students to speak on a topic of their choice that must be related to a broad theme connected to the association’s philosophy.

Primary School Speaking Day On Monday March 16, students from Ormiston State School, Mount Cotton State School, Thornlands State School and BayView State School participated in the Primary School Public Speaking Day. Students learned how to use persuasive devices, elements of public speaking and how to structure a persuasive speech. They then had just over an hour to write and rehearse a persuasive speech. Although this was a difficult task, the students eagerly rose to the challenge, with 14 of 19 30/03/2015 11:43 AM 15 of 19 http://clevelanddistrictstatehighschool.cmail2.com/t/ViewEmail/r/329... some even working hard at lunch time to complete their speeches. With topics ranging from passionate pleas against pollution to why theme parks are more dangerous than you might think, judges Sandra Dennis, Head of English Department and school captain Alexandra Tabrett had the hard task of choosing three winners. Congratulations to Annaliese from BayView, Charlize from Mount Cotton and Laila from Ormiston, whose speeches impressed the judges. All students spoke well and are to be commended on their speech writing skills.
