Welcome to the first newsletter of the 2022 school year. It was great to welcome back our returning students and greet our new Year 7s, all 195 of them! After a well-deserved break the staff have returned raring to go with a renewed energy and enthusiasm. As always, the first few weeks can be a challenge for our students, adjusting to a new routine, making new friends and finding their place. However, it has been pleasing to see how quickly they have adjusted and settled into high school life. With extremely high temperatures and the wearing of masks, it has not been easy, however staff and students have shown great support of the new COVID guidelines.

Our Year 12 cohort 2021 did the College proud achieving some great results in their WACE. Our WACE achievement rate was 93%, higher than both Like Schools and State Schools. Our median ATAR took a dip at 64.8, lower than Like Schools, however we did see an increase in students performing in the high Tricle. Our Strong OLNA results saw 96% of our eligible cohort achieve the minimum standard in both literacy and numeracy. We also had 37% of our students leave with a Certificate III or higher VET qualifications, placing them in a strong position for competitive entry into TAFE or employment. 

Elevate revision seminars continued for both our lower and senior school students with a modified in class program. Getting good study habits in place early and forming a routine will really help our students develop the skills they will need to be successful in the future.

There have been a few shifts in roles and structures for the start of 2022. The College welcomes our new Deputy Principal of Years 7-9 Mrs Louise Hall. This means Mr Pisano has now moved into the role of Vice Principal Years 10-12. Mr Notarpietro will continue in his role in VET and School Operations. We also see the start of our new HOSS Mr Ben Dawkins for Years 11-12 (an additional role we have added to provide greater support for students). We welcome Mr Lucius Chen as HOLA of Digital and Design Technologies and congratulate Ashley Mouritz on winning the new position of Career Practitioner here at the College. Elizabeth Cassidy is now HOLA of The Arts.  The college also welcomes our new staff for 2022 Andrey Hontscharenko (D&T), Georgia Radinger (ENG), Tom Palmer (ENG), Sarah-Jane Lang (Library)  and Angela Ord (EA).

Prior to the commencement of the term, the College worked hard to ensure that staff and students could return to school safely. The College has a full COVID plan and is ready to move to online learning should the need arise.  A survey has gone home to families to gauge student access to internet and devices. If online learning is enacted and you are facing difficulty, please contact the College. Due to current restrictions we have cancelled our Year 7 parent BYOD evening and our Year 7 BBQ. The College will do all it can to keep the community informed via Connect or the College website regarding these topics.

Currently the ball is still on to go ahead. Hopefully we will get there. If for any reason restrictions change that prevent us from attending, the College would look at postponing the event to later in the year rather than a cancellation.

If you need to reach out and contact the college, please see Talking with your College document that can be found on the college website to guide your inquiry. Other useful tools include the Parent/Student Handbook which can be found under OUR COLLEGE.  

Our Connected Learning Plan can be found under NEWS & EVENTS > COVID-19 SCHOOL POSITION if we were to move to an online learning model due to COVID.

I can’t believe I am starting my third year here at Belridge SC, where has the time gone? It is an absolute pleasure to be here and I look forward to sharing the Colleges journey with you throughout the year.

Regards,

Sharon Lyon - Principal

Welcome to the 2022 school year. My name is Louise Hall and I am delighted to be joining the Belridge Secondary College community as Middle School Deputy. I come to Belridge with experience as a Deputy Principal in a previous school and with a strong focus on encouraging students to be the best version of themselves. I also recognise that success means different things to different students and look forward to celebrating these successes with all students at Belridge throughout the year.

I would like to welcome all 195 of the new Year 7 students and their parents/caregivers to the Belridge Secondary College Community along with new students in Years 8-12 who have joined our community this year. It was fantastic to see all students on time, in uniform and excited to get back to school on the first day. It represents what a positive year we can look forward to in 2022.

Active parent/caregiver involvement is paramount to the educational achievement and success of the student. I look forward to establishing and maintaining strong and productive working relationships with all our families to support all students in the Middle school to be successful.

School Dress Code

I have been very impressed to see how smart all students look in their uniforms throughout the day and would encourage all students to maintain this high level of appearance. Also to take pride in themselves and our college community moving forwards.

Cancellation of events

Due to current restrictions we have cancelled the following events:

• Year 7 Parent BYOD evening
• Year 7 BBQ

The College will do all it can to keep the community informed via Connect or the College website and will review arrangements for each event closer to the planned date. 

Year 7 Elevate Education Programme

Later in the term all Year 7 students will participate in workshops conducted by Elevate Education. The workshops are titled Study Skills Kick Start and Junior Management Time and are presented by university students. The presenters make the sessions fun, interactive and informative to further assist our students transition to high school once they have learnt their way around the school!

The sessions are followed by a parent’s information session on Tuesday 5^th April from 6:00pm-7:00pm where parents will be presented with strategies to how best support their children both academically and socially. Further details will be sent out over the coming weeks.

Year 7 & 10 Immunisations

Immunisation forms were distributed to Year 7 students at the start of the year and were due to be returned to school by Wednesday 9^th February if you wished for your child to be immunised. For Year 7, the immunisations are conducted over two (2) sessions on the following dates:

• First session Monday 14 March;
• Second round of immunisations Monday 17 October

Year 10 immunisations will also be conducted on Monday 14 March. 

Please note these dates in your diary as there are no catch-up sessions. Students absent on the day will need to get vaccinated through their local doctor.

Year 7 & 9 NAPLAN 2022

NAPLAN is a national literacy and numeracy assessment that students in Years 7 and 9 will sit as online tests in May this year. As students’ progress through their school years, it’s important to check how well they are learning the essential skills of reading, writing and numeracy. NAPLAN is just one aspect of our school’s assessment and reporting process. It doesn’t replace ongoing assessments made by teachers about student performance, but it can provide teachers with additional information about students’ progress.

Students will prepare for these tests in their Mathematics and English classes to become familiar with the format, language and response types used. I would encourage all students to recognise the importance of these tests and ask that parents/caregivers discuss these tests with their child. Information will be sent from the college during Term 1.

Further information can be found at: https://www.nap.edu.au/naplan/parent-carer-support

Louise Hall
Deputy Principal – Middle School
Years 7, 8 and 9 

Welcome back to 2022 - it has been a smooth start to the school year and I have been impressed with the application of the vast majority of our senior students so far.  There are a few matters that I need to highlight, so we can continue to have a successful year. 

Year 12 ATAR Students: Wed Period 5

All Year 12 ATAR students (3 or more ATAR courses) must stay at school to study in the library. 

Year 12 Non-ATAR and Year 11

Students and parents are reminded that Period 5 on Wednesday is an important part of senior students' programs. Students should not make permanent arrangements to be out of school at this time, because attendance at organised talks, information sessions and study sessions is compulsory.

Also, Year 11 and 12 students who fall behind in their assessments will be required to attend catch-up sessions in the library.  To benefit the Senior School, the library is not available to Years 7, 8, 9 and 10 students at lunchtime and Period 5 on Wednesdays.

Senior School students will be informed when they are required to stay.  If they are not required, they can leave at the start of Break 2.  If they want to stay, they need to work and study in the library.  Once they leave the school, they cannot return that day. 

Year 11 ATAR Students - Wednesday Period 5

All Year 11 ATAR students (3 or more ATAR courses) are also required to stay at school Wednesday Perod 5 to study in PAC2 with Mrs Hall. Also, Year 11 ATAR students were presented with seminars to improve their studying and time management skills. Feedback from all students was positive and they picked up some valuable tips and strategies.  

Year 12 Students Sitting External Exams

The School Curriculum and Standards Authority (SCSA) offers special examination arrangements to candidates with permanent or temporary disabilities who sit the WACE examinations. Provided full medical reports are provided, SCSA may grant special arrangements for conditions such as:

• Vision or hearing impairment
• Learning disabilities, such as dyslexia or dysgraphia
• Medical conditions such as ADD/ADHD, illness, psychological, physical disability or fine motor disability
• Conditions such as diabetes.

Full details can be found at
https://senior-secondary.scsa.wa.edu.au/assessment/examinations/special-provisions

Applications must be submitted through the school to SCSA by Thursday 31 March.

If you have any questions or think your son/daughter may qualify, please contact Mr Pisano or Mr Dawkins (Head of Student Services Years 11 & 12) at the school as soon as possible. 

Mario Pisano
Vice Principal Senior School
Years 10, 11 & 12

Welcome back! It has been fantastic seeing you all looking sharp in your uniforms and ready for what the year brings.

As always, the Student Services Team are here to support the Belridge community in many aspects;

• Health and Well-being
• Behaviour and Engagement
• Attendance
• Learning Difficulties and Diagnosis

We have a large team who all play an important part in ensuring that all students have opportunity for success. 

Please touch base with the respective Year Coordinator or Head of Student Services as necessary.

2022 brings new things for our Student Services team; we have had renovations to our building to make the space more inviting, inclusive and spacious for our students. 

We also welcome our newest member of the team, Peanut, our Companion Dog. Peanut will work with individual students who have an Individual Education Plan, Individual Behaviour Plan or Mental Health Plan to help with lifting mood, regulating emotion and overall well-being. We look forward to seeing the positive influence Peanut will have on our school community.

We have also updated our Uniform Policy, Attendance Policy and Good Standing Policy. Copies of these policies have been distributed to all students and are also available on our website. Please ensure you are familiar with these.  This term, the team are targeting Uniform and Attendance.

Staying Positive During Covid-19

With uncertain times continuing to unfold in the community you may find that your young person, or you as a family are feeling anxious or stressed. Please see the links below for some helpful resources and activities to help with many aspects of living with Covid-19 in the community.

https://schools.au.reachout.com/covid-19

It is important to stay connected and prioritise our wellbeing in stressful times.

Please contact the relevant Head of Student Services if your young person needs some support during this time.

What’s on this term?

Peer Support: The 2022 Peer Support program will commence this Term in Week 3. All Year 7 students will meet weekly in Form groups to complete sessions led by the Year 10 Peer Leaders that were assigned to them during Transition last year. The weekly sessions will focus on getting to know each other as a Form whilst addressing vital life skills such as team work, communication, leadership and interpersonal skills. Phil, our School Chaplain has been working hard with the Year 10 Peer Leaders and they are ready to go for next week.

Follow the Dream: Belridge SC has continued our partnership with Mount Lawley Outreach: Follow the Dream in 2022. Follow the Dream is a program for aspirational Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students in high school, providing holistic support and mentoring.

Our students meet every Tuesday after school in the Library for tuition, study skills, cultural support and guidance with a number of mentors and school staff. The program will run throughout the year, and provide an opportunity for students to participate in camps and excursions with community members, fellow high school students and Elders.

Belridge SC is consistently working to support our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students, and is grateful for the guidance and knowledge of our Follow the Dream mentors and coordinators.

National Day of Action Against Bullying: This year National Day of Action Against bullying is Friday 18^th of March and Belridge will be standing up and saying “bullying, no way!”.

The theme for 2022 is “Kindness Culture”. The Belridge community had a focus on treating others with Kindness in 2021 and we will continue to build a Kindness Culture in our school community, by Respecting Ourselves, Respecting Others and Respecting the Space. By building a Kindness Culture together, we can promote inclusion, respect and community belonging for all students in our school. 

More information about this event will be released in the coming weeks.

The Student Services Team 

The Community Health nurses, allocated from the Child and Adolescent Health Service to Belridge Secondary College, are Deb Lawrence and Jo Savoury. 

Community Health Nurses are members of the Student Services Team and provide a valuable service to various high schools across the region. We work on different days at each school and our availability at Belridge Secondary College can be accessed at Administration or through Student Services. 

The nurses’ office is a place where students can drop in or make appointments to discuss health and wellbeing issues. Some of the health issues that young people present with include; physical health concerns, infection and injuries, mental health, relationship problems and support, sexual health, nutrition and alcohol and other drugs. 

Students may independently seek assistance from the Community Health Nurse, but can also be referred by parents and staff. If you would like to refer your child to the Community Health nurse, please do not hesitate to contact us through the school reception. 

Most importantly, if you have a student at Belridge who has an ongoing medical concern, such as Anaphylaxis, Allergies, Asthma, Diabetes or any other diagnosis that may impact on their school life, please ensure that the school is informed and the necessary forms are completed every new school year to ensure that we are aware and can administer the appropriate treatment, if required. This is especially important where there has been a change to the care required. 

The links to action plans for diabetes, asthma, allergies and anaphylaxis are below. If you have not done so already, please print the relevant action plan and complete it, with the assistance of your medical professional if appropriate, and provide the school with a copy.

Santos Science Experience

On the 11th of January to the 14th, three students (Luke Couston, In Jung, Charlotte Vinson) from Belridge Secondary College had the amazing opportunity to attend the 2022 Santos Science Experience at Edith Cowan University (ECU).

This experience gives students the opportunity to explore the many branches of STEM related careers that ECU has to offer. Whether it be robotics, forensic science, mathematics, cyber security, you name it, ECU has a huge range of options and pathways to pursue your STEM goals and passions.

During our time at ECU, we touched on various interesting areas of STEM and met with many doctors, students and coordinators, each having individual experiences with STEM, such as mathematics, (by Dr J Collins) where we explored the concept of infinity. Chemistry (by Nardia), allowing us to use ECU’s Superlabs. Plus an outdoor field trip to the Gravity Discovery Centre, the crystal caves in Yanchep and a humorous and engaging talk on Nyoongar science presented by Derek.

Students also had the chance to make their own ice-cream out of liquid nitrogen!

In addition to all this, students were also provided with a seminar presented by some of the ECU students, sharing their experiences and journey along with some advice and tips that really inspired our students.

Last but not least, we were also given our own graduation ceremony provided by Michelle Austin, reviewing on our week’s summary, along with a small piano recital by In Jung to forever remember our lovely time at ECU.

Our students had a wonderful time, with expanded knowledge and inspiration for a bright future, but it couldn't have been done without the hard work and preparation from Michelle Austin, ECU, and of course our brilliant teachers at Belridge. Thank you!

Elite Netball Academy

Belridge Secondary College are beyond proud to announce that after 8 years operating as a Netball Academy, we are now an endorsed Netball WA Tier 2 Specialist School. After many successes over the years, including winning two State Championships in 2018 and 2020 and winning multiple year groups Multicultural and Lightning carnivals, we are going from strength to strength.

With the inclusion of over seas netball trips and school camps we are quickly becoming a school with a lot to offer. As the program grows and evolves, we are now seeing the inclusion of boys into some of the classes, creating more diverse teams. Students in Senior School who are part of the program receive their Certificate III in Sport and Recreation and are encouraged to expand their knowledge beyond a school level.

The Netball WA endorsement Program will see the addition of official coaching and umpiring pathways and has a holistic approach to student development in netball. This year sees the beginning of rolling out new uniforms including training shirts with students’ names on them, dresses with the Netball WA logo on them and hats to represent our academy.

Watch this space to see where we are headed next!

Thank you for your support. 

Road Safety & Etiquette

It is a good time at the beginning of the school year to remind everyone about road safety. 

The speed limit on Gwendoline Drive is 40kmph and when traveling through the school drive to a crawl. 

We request that all parents and staff use the correct ENTRY and EXIT driveways at the front of the school.   

Please be aware that school buses need to have sufficient room to make their way through to the bus stops. Please do not park on any section of the left hand side of the driveway. This impedes the ability of the school buses to enter the driveway.

Finally, parents are not to use the access roads leading to the staff carparks at the back of the school to drop off or pick up students.  This adds to further congestion and compromises the safety of our students.  Thank you all for your consideration.
