FROM THE HEADMASTER

From the Headmaster banner


As members of the wider School community are aware, 2010 is a Strategic Planning year for the School. With the support of Barrington Consulting and Meelup Management, Term 3 has been designated as the consultative phase of this process. Under the directorship of Mr Chris Weiner (a former parent) this is the fifth year that Meelup Management has administered our Community Online Survey on behalf of the School. The results of previous surveys, which can be found here have been pivotal to the ongoing strategic plans that have unfurled our intent since 2006. This year’s survey is particularly important for it is both summative of our last plan and formative of our new Vision as we look towards the graduate of 2030. The 2010 survey has been significantly shortened while some new questions have been added. Parents in Years 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12, along with boys in Years 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 and all teaching and support staff are invited to have their say through this instrument (most of the boys won’t get a choice!). If you are the abovementioned groups, please click here to access the 2010 Survey. Parents outside of these year groups are able to make comment, but such comment will not impact upon the longitudinal data of this survey. The School’s use of this survey, although not unique in Australian schools, has been at the leading edge of quality ongoing consultation with key stakeholders around school performance and direction.

SENIOR SCHOOL

From the Head of the Senior School

From the Senior School Banner

 

At various times throughout the school year it becomes necessary to remind all members of the school community of the School Rules. Recently, there have been a number of instances of poor behaviour from small groups of students that have reflected badly on the School. I am seeking parental support to remind your sons of the principles that not only underline our school rules, but are conventions that will help them to become respectful members of the community in which they live.

The School believes that the only discipline of real significance is that which the individual imposes upon himself. These rules aim to make each boy aware of the value of self-control, orderliness and the need to cultivate a sense of responsibility for his own conduct and for the larger community of which he is part.

The number one rule is the “Commonsense Rule” which states that every boy should be thoughtful and considerate of others using his common sense. By way of example, this means that boys travelling on public transport should be giving up their seats for the elderly, they should be conscious of the language they use in public and also respect private and public property. It also assumes that boys of school age do know the difference between what is right and what is wrong. In recent assemblies I have also been reminding boys of the old adage “manners maketh the man”. A simple message that can be very helpful in reminding boys of how they may be judged.

Study Skills Tip For September: What Are Study Skills?

Study skills are known by lots of different terms: effective learning skills, learning to learn skills, meta-cognitive skills, self-regulating skills, independent learning skills. Whatever you like to call these skills, they are the generic skills that help students work more effectively at home, manage their assignments and study efficiently for tests and exams.

Some of these skills you will develop as part of your experiences in particular subjects. Other skills are more focused on the way you approach your work at home. But why are these skills important?

Well firstly getting higher marks will certainly give you more choices about what you might do when you leave school. There is also a strong sense of satisfaction in knowing that you did your best so you can walk away without regret.

However the importance of developing study skills goes way beyond these two reasons. The study skills you develop at school are actually lifelong learning skills. Regardless of whether you stay in the same career for your whole life or change careers 10 times, you will continually have to be learning. You will have to be certified, meet certain regulations, learn new elements of your job, study to move to the next promotional level – you are going to be learning for your entire life, it doesn’t stop just because you leave school.

Through developing good study skills you are also developing personal management skills – how to make yourself do things when you don’t want to do it, how to ask for help, how to manage and organise your resources – all sorts of things that will contribute to your future success. People with strong learning skills and self-management skills are more ready to face the challenges of succeeding in what can be a very competitive world. So each time you manage to get yourself doing something you didn’t feel like doing, celebrate another success in the development of your personal strengths and abilities!

Working through the units on www.studyskillshandbook.com.au will help you develop and improve these essential skills.

Celia Lashlie Live – A talk on growing gorgeous boys into good men
Celia LashlieAdolescent boys – they seem to disappear into another world where they barely communicate, and where fast cars, alcohol and drugs are constant temptations. Will they survive to become good men? How can parents and schools understand and help them through this difficult and dangerous time?

Celia Lashlie has some of the answers. After years of working in the prison service she knows what can happen when boys make the wrong choices. She also knows what it’s like to be a parent – she raised a son on her own and feared for his survival. During the recent Good Man Project she talked to 180 classes of boys throughout New Zealand and what she found was surprising, amusing and, in some cases, frightening. She has continued to work with many more schools in New Zealand and Australia on this work.

This is a recording of one of the hundreds of speaking engagements that Celia has given in New Zealand and Australia since the launch of her international best-selling book ‘He’ll Be OK – Growing Gorgeous Boys Into Good Men’.

With support from the Parents Association, Celia Lashlie has visited Christ Church Grammar School for the past years and spoken to both boys and their parents. If you would like to hear her messages again – or were unable to come along to the public meeting in July, audio copies of Celia’s talk are available for purchase at the main school reception at a cost of $20.00 each.
