                                                        Back from holidays...

             …… and Yay, Year 7 2016 ready for school
             at Delroy Campus
  From the Principal...
 Welcome to 2016 at Delroy! It is shaping up for a great year! We have all our staffing in place and we welcome a wonder-
 ful group of new Year 7 students and a special warm welcome to students and their families who are new to Dubbo or the
 College. We will welcome Year 7 and new enrolments, students and parents, this evening, Wednesday 10th February, at
 6.30pm.

 We began the term on Wednesday 27th January with a staff development day. The morning was a combined college
 session focusing on the use of feedback to improve learning outcomes. In the afternoon all staff were taken through the
 Department’s Code of Conduct, then time was devoted to faculty meetings and planning for 2016. New staff undertook an
 induction program with Ms Smith and Mrs Budden. On Thursday we welcomed Year 7 who seamlessly transitioned into
 the school. I recognise the huge effort of Miss Bermingham and our staff who ran the transition program last year, it has
 certainly paid off.
 Students in Years 8 to 10 began on Friday and is was so fabulous to see everyone in school uniform! This is the
 expectation everyday. Wearing school uniform is an important part of the Delroy community and there is no reason why
 students cannot wear school uniform every day. If you have financial difficulties which prevents you from purchasing
 uniforms please contact the school and speak with the deputies. Centrelink also assist with education costs in the form of
 the Schoolkids Bonus.
 All year groups this year will be participating in year excursions which their Year Advisers are busily planning. As soon as
 that is finalised, information sheets and costs will be provided to the students. All students are expected to participate in
 these activities as they help build self-confidence, resilience, self-esteem, as well as cooperation and collaboration which
 are very important life and work skills as well, of course, being a lot of fun! It is a sensible idea to pay the costs of these
 excursions on payment a plan with the school. The SRC will be organising fundraising events to help offset these costs.

       At the “Welcome” assembly last Friday I spoke of the importance of our students developing a strong value system that
       will enable them to make ethical decisions to allow them to take their place in the world as someone who will make a
       positive contribution to their community, make good choices and will display empathy for others. It is important we learn
       to care deeply about others. I showed a superb ad from the UOB bank which as titled “Our values define us”. The message
       was:
       HONESTY is not encoded in our genes                                      It is the role of Public Education to not only teach
       RESPECT is not written in our DNA                                        content but, with parents, to help students develop
       You won’t find PERSEVERANCE reproducing in the body, like cells these values so they become good citizens of our
       or LOYALTY hiding in your blood stream                                   world.
       It doesn’t matter how we begin,
       In the end our values define us….

        Respect:
                                                                       I also spoke about the
                                                           Australian of the Year for 2016
                                                                         Lieutenant –General
                                                             David Morrison and referred to
                                                           his 2013 speech to the Australian
                                                                Army. The message he gave
                                                                  applies also to our school.
                                                            That is; we are an INCLUSIVE
                                                           organisation. We strive always to
                                                                     reach our POTENTIAL and allow others to do so. We do not
                                                           DEMEAN or EXPLOIT others and we do not tolerate BULLYING. I
                                                                            encourage you to have a look at that speech on youtube.

       During first semester the school will be undergoing a little “sprucing up” with new blinds, carpet and painting in some
       areas. This follows the installation of watering system in the front of the school which occurred in the school holidays.
       Currently the hall floor is being sanded and re-lacquered with new line marking. It is very exciting and pleasing indeed!
       Delroy is full of OPPORTUNITY for students, so I urge all students to take advantage of this. Get fully involved in school
       life and have an awesome 2016!
       Mrs Debbie Head Principal

Quirky jobs that will exist by 2030
We look at predictions made by foresight experts like New York-based firm,
sparks & honey and research gathered by the Canadian Scholarship Trust (CST)
to see what jobs will exist in 2030.

This year alone, the global market for 3D printers is expected to grow by 56 per cent, putting its worth at US$5.2 billion.
And by 2019, forecast experts Canalys are predicting the market will quadruple in value to US$20.2 billion.
Canalys research analyst Joe Kempton notes that over the coming years ‘3D printers will continue to fall in price and im-
prove in speed and quality,’ making it easier for individual consumers to use this new technology.
It seems that by 2030, it’s quite possible 3D printers will become as commonplace as the dishwasher or toaster in some
homes, so it makes sense that we’ll need an army of technicians to both fix our 3D printers, and also help us to maximise
their usage.

Imagine, for instance, the kitchen sink’s broken. Rather than ordering the necessary spare part, a 3D printer handyman can
print the part right there and then, and fix up that leaky tap of yours!

Skills you’ll need for this job:

      ahead.
      Also, stay tuned for the next newsletter as it will be action-
      packed with loads of photographs of students’ work and
      progress. This is our aim to publish our junior artists in the
      classrooms, let their work be seen. We also encourage
      students to bring work in that they have competed at home for
      us to view and encourage more. We always like to see what
      you like to draw/paint in your own time. Plus it gives us an
      idea of your abilities.

      Drama
                         How exciting, we have a Drama elective! We have a lot of excitement for this subject as it allows us to
                         view your individual personalities and emotions through expression. We have big plans for all you
                         Drama students. Stay tuned everybody! And don’t forget, we have the Onstage excursion to Sydney
                         this week – on the 9th to the 11th of February. Anyone who has outstanding payments are to make sure
                         they are completed and ready to go.

      Circus
      We have a new member of staff teaching and assisting students in their endeavour to accomplish their levels this year and
      that is Miss Doorey. Welcome Miss! No doubt the students will do an amazing job learning new skills to perform for the
      school and even in the community.
      Also remember the following:
      After school Circus – starting next week, 4pm at Delroy hall for students in years 5-12. The cost is $2 per week or $20
      for the term. See you there!

      ACTIVITY
      Here are a few examples
      of street artist Banksy and
      his political and humorous
      works. Look him up,
      google him….see what you
      think about his artist
      practice and see if you can
      understand what he is
      portraying to the public.

       - What do you think about these works?
       - Do you find his works to be humorous?
       - Would you consider this as a form of Graffiti or street art?
       - Can you recognise any of these from a famous movie and
       popular television show?

       Science News:
       Welcome to year 7! You will be starting off the year by analysing a crime scene to try to solve the murder of Alex Smith
       (see pictures below). You will be learning about scientific procedures, risk assessments and how to draw scientific
       conclusions from observations. Work hard and pay attention!
       Welcome back to all our previous Science students. A couple of things to think about:
           A lot of students find it helpful to have a calendar at home where they can write up all their assessments for the term.
           You need to bring your Science workbook, pens, pencils and a ruler to class every day.
           A glue-stick, highlighters, coloured pencils and a calculator will also be useful from time to time.
       Thanks,
       Maurice Elbourne-Binns
       Head Teacher of Science

                             Year 8-10 Weekly Sport

                             It is compulsory for all students at Delroy Campus to complete two lessons of sport each week. It is
                             important that students come prepared for these lessons in correct practical uniform, have a water
                             bottle and hat. Students will use the school oval, COLA, hall and Pioneer Park to undertake set
                             activities. Sport for students in Years 8-10 will be conducted in the following periods:

           1.      Monday Periods 1, 2 (Years 9 - 10)
           2.      Wednesday Periods 3, 4 (Year 8)
           3.      Friday Periods 1, 2 (Years 9-10)

       ****Please note: Year 9 -10 students either do sport on Monday or Friday not both.

       If for any reason a student is unable to participate in sport they must provide a note from home outlining the reasons
       behind their inability to participate.

       Throughout the year students will experience a wide range of individual and team games to enhance their general fitness
       and skill levels. In week 5 students will be given the opportunity to take part in multi-sports. This is limited to 25 students.
       Students who successfully elect multisport will have the opportunity to do activities such as Flip Out, Bubble Soccer, RSL
       Health and Fitness and Ten Pin. The cost for this is $10 each. Travel will be via the school bus.

       The Christmas Holidays and now the Back to School expenses period has been a financial burden on many families and so it would
       be great if you can help promote the Save Plus program through any of the following ideas.
        ·     Run the attached Flyer in your school newsletter or pass it onto someone else.
        ·     Include brochures with various School accounts
        ·     Sporting activities and excursions
        ·      Invite me to speak to groups of parents at gatherings
        ·     Inform your School Counsellor or Student Welfare Officer about the program
        ·     Promote through the use of bulk text messaging to parents.
