Dear Parents and Members of our School Community
Welcome back to another school term. I hope you had a lovely break with your family. I would like to
welcome some new staff to our school in a number of different capacities.
Peter Kell has joined the Industrial Arts team to replace Andrew Hetherington who has moved to a
Head Teacher Teaching and Learning position with the Lachlan group of schools.
Mr John Massang is currently working in Orange network office on some project work and Ms Lauren
Meys has joined the school to work in Science.
Mrs Hawke is on leave for the rest of this term and Mr Williams has moved into the position of Head
Teacher Special Education. Ms Susan Gottschall will relieve as Head Teacher English during this period.
Andrew Farley has taken on the role of canteen and catering manager for the P&C run school
canteen. Andrew brings with him a great deal of knowledge and experience cooking in a hatted
restaurant and will be a valuable asset to our school. The canteen is in the process of getting an EFTPOS
machine to make it easier for students to purchase their lunches. The new menu for July and August is
attached to this newsletter. I would encourage your children to support the canteen as much as
possible. The feedback has been extremely positive in the first two weeks the canteen has been open.
Next week is Education Week across NSW schools. The theme of Education week in 2015 is “Celebrating
Local Heroes”. Being part of the Canobolas community allows your children to develop into local
heroes. We are aiming to improve the outcomes of every child we teach and we will be continuing to
focus on this achievement to ensure your children become the future local heroes for our school and
wider community.
As the year progresses, we will be announcing a number of new programs which will be launched in
2016. Building on the success of our Academically Talented classes, the Canobolas High Performance
Athletes programs and the myriad of other programs we currently offer in the school, is an opportunity
to build skills across Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) through the introduction
of a dedicated STEM centre in 2016. This is a lighthouse project and one which will continue to give our
student the skills and experiences necessary to be successful in the 21st century. We will provide more
details of this program in the coming weeks.
In addition to this program, we will begin an innovative model of teaching and learning totally turning
learning as we currently know it on its head. A small number of students will have the opportunity to
revolutionise how they learn in 2016 by being part of our “Big Picture” academy. More details to follow
in the coming weeks.
Year 11 2016 Subject Selection Evening
On Thursday 23rd July we held our Year 10 into 11 Parent Information Evening and Subject Selection. This
was a great opportunity for our parents and Year 10 students to look at what subjects are on offer for
2016 and to ask questions about studying as a senior student. For those families who could not make
Thursday evening, please feel free to contact Ms Matilka (Year 10 Adviser) who will be able to assist you
with your enquiries.
Year 12 Trial HSC Exams
The trial HSC begins for Year 12 students in week 4, Monday 3rd August. All senior students should now be busily preparing for their exams. Students have been given timetables for the exam period and are
expected to be in attendance for all of their exams. If you require any advice on assisting your child
prepare for their exams, please contact Mrs Udy or Ms Bertolin.
P&C Meeting
The first P&C meeting for term 3 will be held on Wednesday 5th August at 6.30pm in the school admin
building. This will be a great opportunity for you to come along and meet our new canteen manager and hear more about the programs we intend to offer in 2016. All enquiries to our president, Keryn
Percival at [email protected]
I hope you have a great fortnight and I look forward to speaking with you in week 4.

HAMMERTIME
Canobolas is going racing!
After a long wait we have finally taken delivery of the frame of our Human Powered Vehicle (HPV).
HPV racing is big business in Victoria, South Australia, Queensland and
Western Australia but has remained a relatively unknown attraction in
NSW.
HPV Racing NSW has been working hard
to establish the first race of its kind in
NSW here in Orange with the first race planned for October 2016. Orange City
Council have approved a repurpose of
sections of the Gosling Creek Reserve to
be converted into a track suitable to hold these three wheeled machines.
We are current ly building the aerodynamic fairing that will surround
the tubular frame with the aim to have it completely track ready for an exhibition on Bike Week Mid-
September.
If you would like to help be involved in this exciting endeavour please contact Mr Mal Kay via email:

fine bit of childrens play equipment.

Hospitality Team Serves Up Success at the Zonta Antique Fair
On Friday 13th June, the Year 11 and 12 Hospitality students catered for the Zonta Antique Fair at the
Orange Function Centre. This event takes place every year and is renowned for being the largest antique fair in Australia.
The hospitality team has catered for this event for the past 12 years and our school prides itself on
delivering the finest cocktail food and service every year.
Mrs Nash and Mrs Buckerfield were extremely proud of the hospitality students and enjoyed working
collaboratively with the commercial cookery and food and beverage students to prepare, cook and serve menu items to the 40 antique fair vendors and the 300 guests, who travel near and far to
appreciate and purchase antique furniture, clothing, jewellery and other collectables.
Students perfected their hygiene, food preparation, cooking and serving skills throughout the day and into the evening. The menu items served during the launch to the dignitaries were gourmet open
sandwiches, cheese and bacon quiche, caramelised onion tartlets, prawn sailboats, gourmet sausage
rolls, Vietnamese spring rolls, chicken kebabs, slices, fruit, cheese and antipasto platters.
The hospitality team looks forward to creating another menu for next year’s Antique Fair and enjoys
volunteering their time and effort to such a wonderful Orange charity.
Metals Recap!
Over the past 2 terms, 7T-1 have been working extremely hard in Technology (Mandatory) to complete
their practical projects. At the end of last term we finally finished our first project, a stick metal figurine. Students designed the shape of their figurine and cut, bent and filed them into shape. A huge thank
you to Brodie Totman in Year 10 who kindly braised the students figurines onto their bases.
Well done 7T-1! Your completed Metal figurines look fantastic!

SCIENCE GALLERY
Year 7 Ag is learning about egg production this term…
These babies are currently ‘cooking’ in the incubator in the Science Prep Room. One day they’ll be real
chooks running around up at the Ag Farm! Contrary to popular belief, these chickens weren’t first bred in Mt.Isa, Queensland, but by a French
company, the “Institute de Selection Animale”.
Apparently ISA Browns are one of the best breeds to have in your chook pen at home or at school –
they lay lots of eggs and it seems they love kids – especially if they know food is part of the relationship! But … among themselves they can be quite bossy. Once they’re settled into a flock with an established
pecking order they can be pretty hard on newcomers. If you want to add new chooks to the flock it
seems the best thing is to get new ones about the same size as the old ones (or bigger!) so they can’t be so easily attacked and you need to provide plenty of room for them to run away until they find their
place in the flock. Year 8 are finishing their Earth & Space Unit by …
Year 9 Science are preparing for their skills tests by practising testing for pH, identifying acids and bases
in common foods….
Watch this
Space …
we’re going to have babies –
little Isa Brown ones!!
… creating their own solar system… and inventing their own mnemonic …
BIBLIOMANIA
During the holidays some interesting new books have arrived in the library.
The ever popular Morris Gleitzman has written another book which continues the story of Felix, a Jewish boy, still struggling to survive in the wake of the liberation of Poland at the end of WWII. Soon
makes the reader consider: when is a war really over? Food is scarce, living conditions abhorrent and the hope of helping people slim. As Felix tells us: “I hoped the Nazis would be
defeated. And they were. I hoped the war would be over. And it was. I hoped we would
be safe. But we aren’t.” Children have to do things to survive which would not have been considered before the war and morals and values are, in many cases, ignored. This is set
against the Nazis performing medical experiments on Jewish people. Can experimentation
of this sort ever be justifiable? It is up to the reader to decide whether this is a story of hope or
hopelessness and gives further insights into the holocaust and its aftermath.
Another popular author, Jackie French, has turned to Shakespeare again in her latest offering: Ophelia: Queen of Denmark. Following from I am Juliet, Ophelia focuses on the reinterpretation of
Hamlet. She is the girl who will be Queen. While Hamlet’s family stab, poison or haunt one
another, Ophelia plans a sensible rule, one filled with justice and the making of delicious
cheeses, even if she has to pretend to be mad to make it happen. Lines from the play are interwoven into the story and Ophelia is revealed as a complex personality, very poised
outwardly but not immune to love and lust. This is Shakespeare’s play with what might have
happened behind the scenes. The book explores the main theme of the play, how vengeful madness destroys lives, but incidents are seen from the point of view of a young woman who thinks that cheese is more important to the happiness of a land than feuds and warfare. I am Juliet is
also in the library collection.
Based on real events, Freedom Ride by Sue Lawson explores the racial tensions in the town
of Walgaree during the summer of 1965. Robbie’s journey from ignorance and acceptance to awareness, disappointment, anger and action will challenge and confront the reader, as
it was only 50 years ago that there was this unwritten apartheid. Robbie, a white teenager,
has his own family issues stemming from his late mother, his highly racist and generally
uncaring father and his cruel and nasty grandmother. Anything bad or unsavoury that happens around town is immediately blamed on an Aboriginal, even when there are no
witnesses. It goes further, with corruption of the bigoted Mayor and the RSL management.
As the Freedom Ride nears from Sydney, tensions boil over, with a few brave men and women
demanding change. This is an excellent read about some of Australia’s history of relations with Aboriginal people.
Another perceptive look at Australian history My Australian Story: Vietnam covers more turbulent
change in Australia in the 1960s. Davey, Pete and Johno are best friends. Pete is clever, Davey is
average and Johno is bad at schoolwork but good at fixing things. They live in Newcastle,
love surfing and rock’n’roll. In diary format, Davey tells the story of two years in their lives, 1969 to 1970, the years when Davey’s brother, Tom, is sent to Vietnam. Davey’s dad, who
served in WWII, is proud, his mother, angry and worried, joins the protest movement, Save
Our Sons. The reader learns of other world events: landing on the moon, the musical Hair, mini skirts and Mick Jagger coming to Australia to film Ned Kelly! We also gain insights into
the heat and sweat of Nui Dat and the sleazy streets of Vung Tau, where soldiers who are
drafted in a lottery to serve in the far-away world of Vietnam create waves very close to
home. Deborah Challinor has brought this period of Australian history to life, including the impact of this being the first televised war.
Dark, thrilling and eerie, Afterlight by Rebecca Lim takes the reader into the heart of a
dangerous love story, revealing the otherworldly and deadly pull of past wrongs which only
the living can put right. Sophie is a teenager, living in Melbourne and coming to terms with
the death of her parents in a freak accident. That’s until Eve, a beautiful ghost clad in black, starts making nightly appearances in Sophie’s bedroom. Eve doesn’t speak or write, she just
hovers, transmitting images and pleading for Sophie’s help. What happened to Eve? Does it
have something to do with a recent murder which has a bikie gang leader on the run? Sophie, with the help of enigmatic Jordan, sets out to answer these questions.
Fleur Ferris, a former police officer and paramedic has written a novel inspired by true stories of online predators and love gone wrong. The reader knows this is the real deal! Risk explores the
potential dangers of social media and the internet. Sierra thinks Jacob Jones is the one
and asks Taylor to cover for her when she goes to meet him for the first time. After three
days, Taylor finally tells Sierra’s mum that she is missing, at first thinking Sierra is up to her
usual selfish tricks. The police do everything they can, but “Jacob Jones” has used an online proxy box to create a fake untraceable identity, the photo he sent is photoshopped
and security cameras where he and Sierra met show a man with his face obscured by a baseball cap. Risk explores one of the many outcomes that can occur when meeting
someone online, then in person, without fully understanding the lengths to which a predator
will go to gain a person’s trust. Gripping, devastating and terrifying, the scariest thing is that everything that happens in Risk is all too possible.
An epic seafaring quest for trust and freedom Empire of the Waves: Voyage of the Moon
Child is the first in a new series by Christopher Richardson. This fantasy novel is filled with vivid
creatures, vibrant settings and characters which keep you guessing. If you are interested in pirates and giants teaming up to fight an evil villain’s plot to destroy the world, borrow this
book soon!
Frankie and Joely are best friends. They love each other like no one else can. When a summer break in the country brings fresh distractions, jealousies and secrets, can their friendship survive? Frankie and Joely, written by Nora Weetman, will appeal to fans of
Maureen McCarthy. Weetman deftly goes from one teenage head to another, a brilliant device. As much as the reader sympathises with one girl because the other is physical
perfection and turns every boy’s head, in the next moment we see how worthless that is for
the beautiful girl who longs for family but only knows how to be desired. Two brothers, one
tough and dominant, the other more sensitive, also get a point-of-view. This is a magnetic young adult novel about friendship, rivalry and new love.
Come to the library soon and explore these new books, as well as magazines such as Top Gear, Game
Informer, Dolly and National Geographic.
♫ MUSIC NOTES ♫
Snow won’t stop Canobolas Music!!
AcTal students in the Band program Canobolas Music students’ workshop at Landers Music
“Feed me Seymour,” - Mr Riles the singing bus driver.
Last Thursday 20 Canobolas Music students were treated to pre-show entertainment as Mr Riles sang his
favourite showstoppers from when he starred in TCRTHS’s Little Shop of Horrors in 2007 whilst he drove us into town. We were on our way to a workshop at Lander’s Music and then to see Kinross Wolaroi School
perform Little Shop of Horrors at Orange Civic Theatre. Mr Riles enjoys rehashing his favourite lines and
tunes from the Canobolas production when he enthusiastically starred as the voice of the plant.
The excursion last Thursday was a lot of fun for all. At Lander’s Music the staff provided a workshop on
different instruments and music types. You can watch a video from this day on either the school’s
Facebook page or Lander’s Music Facebook page.
At the theatre, we sat near the front with a close-up view of the stage. Students enjoyed seeing the
singing, dancing and acting performed by KWS students to tell the story of this strange plant and its
effect on young Seymour and those around him.
All students enjoyed both the Lander’s Music workshop and the musical. We thank the Lander’s Music
staff for their time and we congratulate KWS for their stellar performance.
Our students at the Australian Institute of Music
Budding Year 9 musicians Kyle Fardell
and Sharon Jansen enjoyed 3 days at
the Australian Institute of Music (AIM) in Sydney, where they completed the
Music Factory workshops. Along with
students from metropolitan schools, Kyle and Sharon worked alongside AIM tutors
and musicians to learn about different
rock instruments and music styles. Kyle
says he most enjoyed playing with everyone and learning so much cool
stuff about music and skills for playing in
bands. Kyle has come back with a new appreciation for Jazz music. “It’s also
cool that we got to meet other kids who play guitar and drums and we are all friends on Facebook now
and will try to go to more AIM events in the future,” he says. The students also got to meet and learn
from renowned music personality, John Foreman.
Performing ensembles
We send our well wishes to Mr Ross Welch (Drum Group tutor) who is in hospital after an accident in the
holidays.
Choir students are urged to use the rehearsal materials on the faculty website to rehearse our songs for the upcoming eisteddfod. Please try rehearse at home to learn the songs before Sam goes overseas.

Marianne Murphy Netball Shield
On Tuesday 21st of July, Canobolas sent 3 netball teams to the PCYC to compete in the local Marianne Murphy Shield. This competition started in 2002 to commemorate the achievements of local girl
Marianne Murphy, who made selections for NSW netball in under 17s, under 19s and open teams. The
Shield is an interschool competition played between all the High Schools in Orange.
In the under 14s division, Canobolas demonstrated effort and determination to
improve every game. Catherine Nicholson was a key player throughout the centre
court, showing stamina and endurance, having only 1 quarter off over 4 games. Lisa Collyer showed skill as a defence and showed great anticipation for opposing plays.
While not a regular netball player, Jordan Price proved a valuable asset, putting in
100% effort and improving every game. Congratulations to Chloe Walton, Courtney
Apps, Kattie-Lee Bennett, Tegan Wood and Amelia-Rose Koller for their efforts on the day.
The under 16s team started the day with no substitutions and some tough competition ahead. With all girls being under 15, this was a
learning experience which will hopefully make them all the more
prepared for next year when they are top age. Some tight and consistent defence
from Destinee Navale and Caitlin White created some great struggles from opposing teams, while Ellena Hicks played a clean and consistent defensive game. Ayla Frost
shot well in every game, while Jada Murphy worked tirelessly to get the ball to the
attacking end of the court and then shot consistently every game. Sarah White and Erin Naden worked strong in the midcourt in both the attack and defence. A big thank you to McKenha Elliot and Lacey
Duncan who assisted in the last game when injury struck.
Congratulations to the girls on a huge day – where they never
stopped pushing and gave everything their all.
In the Open’s division, Canobolas came up against some quality
competition, with Orange High, James Sheahan and Kinross all represented by their Division 1 teams from the local Orange
competition. The girls worked hard throughout the day and made
every effort against tough teams. Congratulations to Lacey
Duncan, McKenha Elliot, Brooke Kingston, Caitlin Masila, Emily Merchant, Zali Pettit, Natasha Spicer and Megan Dodds for their
consistent attempts throughout the day.
Thank you to Jacqui Harris and Emma Kable who volunteered as umpiring representatives for the day,
and best of luck to Emma who will be umpiring grand final matches on Thursday night. Thank you to Mrs
Udy and Mrs Rouse who coached teams and showed great enthusiasm and support for the girls.
