Our Principal’s Report Welcome to all our new families who have joined the Riverside community with the start of their daughters at high school. I have visited the year 7 classes and we have a wonderful group of excited students ready to learn and participate in this vibrant school. Many of them have asked more about the history of the motto, FACTA NON VERBA, which I expand through real life activities happening at the school. On Friday DEEDS NOT WORDS was on display with the SRC initiative of a 20 mins intensive clean up as we moved into the Clean Up Australia weekend. We DID something rather than talk about how important it is to look after the environment. Later in this newsletter you will read about the study with Macquarie University Promoting Healthy Responses to Stress. Involvement in this study is a DEED to show our commitment to being proactive in supporting young women to be strong and resilient. We are not participating in this survey because of any problem here at Riverside with anxiety amongst our students. In fact, surveys show our students are below the national average when it comes to self reports of anxiety and stress. We are participating because the results are likely to have a lasting impact across the world in reducing stress amongst young women. This is a good DEED rather than just SAYING that we are concerned about how young women react to demands on them in today’s world.

We are also the only public school in the international study and we are always proud to advance public education and its commitment to ‘students first’. I look forward to hearing your comments at the next P and C meeting. We also celebrate our great HSC results. At the recent assembly, we broadened the invitees from students achieving over 90 ATAR to include students who achieved their personal best. They too met our school’s high expectations. We celebrated those students who have excitedly told us that they have achieved their dream and are able to study what they want at uni or have achieved a work placement extraordinaire. By celebrating personal best at the Distinguished Achievers Assembly we are supporting our vision: Together students, teachers and parents will develop a school culture where achieving personal best is recognised and the use of the imagination, of reflection and of being challenged is valued. This assembly was the highlight of February. It is important for teachers to see excited, happy, confident young women entering the real world, so well prepared, knowledgeable and positive, is what makes the job of being a teacher, and also my job, the best in the world. Belinda Kelly Principal

Outstanding HSC results

The Distinguished Achievers’ Assembly was a celebration of our high achieving students such as the equal dux, Sarah and Madeleine who with 98.6 have been accepted into their first choice university courses at UNSW, Commerce/Arts and Advanced Mathematics, respectively. Elisa achieved 98.5 and won a scholarship to ANU in Canberra to study Arts/Law.

Seventeen students achieved an ATAR over 90 (>12% of the cohort) and twenty students achieved one or more band 6 results (67 in total across 29 courses). Emma with 94.95 was awarded a Bachelor of Accounting scholarship at UTS. Because of her outstanding Economics results, Emma will also complete an internship with the sponsoring firm, “Account Cooperative". Accelerated students also performed well in 2013 HSC. As they enjoy studying in 2014, they can reflect on the results they already have on the board for the HSC – Lucy for her Band 5 in Dance and Esther and Anne who achieved Band 6 in the Information Technology exam as part of their Certificate II VET course studied with Ms Wark. he students in this accelerated course filled the stage as they achieved five times the State average in Band 6 and had ten students in Band 5. This was a true example of personal best and the school supporting students with particular talents and interests through curricular offerings.

School Production

This year’s school production is an adaptation of Roald Dahl’s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. One hundred girls from years 7 to 12 auditioned on 25

th

February. The audition process ran very smoothly and all of the girls demonstrated confidence and dramatic talent. Roles have been allocated and rehearsals take place after school every Monday and Wednesday. Many students across all years have also signed up to help backstage and with creating sets and props. Evening performances will take place on the 28

th, 29

Under 15 Netball Team On Tuesday 25

th February 2014 the Under 15 Netball

Team travelled to Bateau Bay on the Central Coast for their round 5 knockout competition game against Tuggerah Lakes Secondary College. The competition commenced in Term 4 2013 and the Girls had all been eagerly awaiting to play this game. The team consisted of Chloe Davis, Nicola Schubert, Lauren Flack, Abby Flockton, Sophie Macpherson, Kate Masters, Jane Hill, Ebony Burnard, Jadine Zajic, Sophie Kevern, and Umpire Georgia Bousfield. Riverside took an early lead over Tuggerah Lakes Secondary College during the first quarter. Our mid

court players worked well to drive forward onto the ball and pressured the other team, causing many turnovers. This continued throughout the game. Our defence was secure, and players worked together to intercept the ball and take any back line passes with success. Our shooters performed exceptionally well and were able to score some very quick goals from all areas of the circle. The score at the end of the 4

th quarter was 35-21

Riverside’s way. The Girls played exceptionally well as a team and with determination and enthusiasm. Considering they hadn’t played together since Term 4 2013. We will find out in early March who we will play in our round 6 team. We wish the team all the best for its next game. Ms Catterall

Ex – Student (Class of 2012) Wins Soccer Scholarship to U.S.

Abigail Bradshaw was a very active member of the 2012 graduating year. She excelled in volley ball, athletics and soccer and was successful in achieving a place at The Australian College of Physical education to study P.E.

Abigail and Ms Andrews

Football NSW targets football clubs to offer players the chance to apply for scholarships to study and play soccer in the United States. Abigail applied and was successful. She leaves in a few weeks to take up her scholarship at Jamestown Community College in New York State. She will be away for four years and when she recently came into school to tell Ms Andrews (PE Head Teacher) she was very excited about the opportunity to live, study and explore in the United States. Abigails’s success is a great example to all students. She has achieved this opportunity as much through her involvement in sport and community activities as through her academic results. We all wish her well in her new adventure and hope to be able to report on her experiences in future newsletters.

Riverside Girls High School

Making connections through a welcome BBQ Over 250 parents, siblings and friends of our new year 7 students joined teachers and the welfare team for the year 7 welcome BBQ. It was a glorious night and an opportunity for parents to meet the teachers and get to know the year adviser, Ms Lisa Trapnell from the Maths faculty, a little more. Ms Trapnell had this to say about being Year 7 Adviser 2014: * It is a privilege to be an integral part in the girls' lives as they take their journey to becoming young ladies * I love getting to know students finding out about the differences as well as the similarities that we may have. * I want to make a difference and have never been accused of sitting back doing nothing * Being a caring, fun, fair but firm person is who I am and I believe these qualities are essential for this role. We have had such a great start to this year and the girls should be given credit for their adjustment to high school life. When we work together, we grow together, lets see how tall we can become.

My Restaurant Rules Year 8 Technology Mandatory students have begun a new unit called My Restaurant Rules. The design brief for the assessment task in this unit is as follow: You are a restaurateur keen to entice potential customers and improve business. Design and make relevant materials required for the promotion and effective operation of your restaurant. This includes the demonstration of a signature dish that sets your restaurant apart from others. Here are some pictures of our first Riverside celebrities:

CAPA Column The creative and performing arts of Riverside has well and truly kicked off with the band and string group having had several rehearsals already, dance auditions well underway for the show group ensembles, the formation of the new woodwind quartet which is so exciting and of course the planning and preparation for the upcoming Riverside production for 2014, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. For this year’s play there will be many speaking positions on offer and don’t worry if that is not your cup of tea, you have the option to fulfil your lifelong aspirations of playing the thrilling part of an oompa loompa. Acceptance into this year’s play is by audition only. For the last few years I have taken part in the plays and musicals here at Riverside on violin and I have to say it has been such a great experience. To work so hard in all the rehearsals leading up to the week of shows then delivering an outstanding performance loved by all is honestly the best feeling. On a different note, I will be organising the performances for school assemblies this year. So if anyone is interested in performing whether you’re an actor, singer, dancer or instrumentalist please come and let me know. Thank you! Karen Kong – Performance Captain
