Week 5, Term 2 2017
The Boys soccer competitions continued this
week with the Bill Turner Cup squad travelling to
Braidwood and the Opens team travelling to
Queanbeyan to take on Karabar.
Our Bill Turner Cup boys continued their
successful start in the knockout competition with
a very impressive 5 – 2 win over the Braidwood
Central School. After some missed opportunities
early in the first half, the boys soon found the
back of the net with a hat-trick from Julian
Coppolino and goals from Tristan Pollard and
Adam Cox, which gave them a 5 goal lead at half
time. In the second half Mulwaree kept constant
possession of the ball and maintained pressure
on the Braidwood side. The home team did not
give up, scoring two late goals and providing a
positive finish to the game.
The Opens team travelled to Karabar in the hope
of continuing their success after beating Moss
Vale 3 – 2. From the very beginning of the match
it was evident that Karabar were a talented and
worthy opponent. Mulwaree enthusiastically
defended their goal and competed throughout the
game. The final score was 8 – 0 in favour of
Karabar, however this was not a true reflection of
the way the Mulwaree side played. The side
should be congratulated on their gallant effort and
respectful representation of Mulwaree
High School.

I am hearing great things about the new digital
newsletter. It is a fantastic looking addition to our
website. Congratulations to Mrs Curry for
developing the idea and Ms Gulson for making it
work.
More congratulations to Mr Stevenson and his
team for hosting the Zone Cross Country which
Mulwaree High School won for the 14th year. The
Year 12s made many $ with the fairy floss / BBQ
stall. Good luck to the big team going to Regional
Championships.
I ask that everyone, staff students and parents
show patience as far as money issues are
concerned. Mulwaree High School went live with
a new administration system, LMBR. It will be a
steep learning curve for everyone especially our
office staff. Funds will be able to be receipted as
of Monday.
We are in the middle of exams for all except Year
12 so study hard and aim high.
Congratulations to the students who have been
accepted into Senior and Junior State Music
Camps, 11 all together. A record I think and to
Madilynn Bayliss who was accepted into State
Dance Ensemble.
A reminder to all students; you must submit
assessment work on time. If you are late you
need to provide a medical certificate otherwise you
will receive no marks and an N-determination
warning letter. These are NESA rules not
Mulwaree High School rules.
Bon Voyage to Mr and Mrs Wilson who are
travelling to Russia. Have a great trip and see you
back next term.

Zone Cross Country
Perfect running conditions greeted all schools
upon their arrival for the 2017 Tablelands Cross
Country Championships. This year, we had over
450 competitors from 8 schools, who were
eager to knock Mulwaree from their winning
streak.
Once again, Mulwaree High School was the
overall winner this year on 443 points, with 8
teams winning their respective age groups. This
takes our winning run to 14 YEARS
STRAIGHT ! What a massive achievement by
our team.
This year, we will have Mulwaree Zone teams in
the 12’s, 14’s, 16’s, 18’s Girls and the 12’s,
14’s, 15’s, and 17’s Boys. We also have 12
individual runners heading off to Regional. This
is a huge effort from all of those runners.
Congratulations!
Unfortunately, our U/15’s Boy’s NSW All
Schools Champion team from last year was
beaten by ONE solitary point in the 16’s event.
However, 2 of those boys have made it through
to the next stage as individual runners.
Mulwaree had 4 students who finished in 1st
place in their event and were crowned Age
Champions. These students were:
Meg Baxter 12’s Girls
Mikayla Jones 13’s Girls
Annabel Croker 15’s Girls
Riley Cox-Barlow 13’s Boys
It was extremely pleasing to see these student’s
hard work pay off. Congratulations to you all on
such a fantastic achievement. Well done!!
I would like to pass on my special mention to our
students for their behaviour all day; which was
exemplary, and for their efforts in completing the
course in the quickest time possible.
A huge thank you must also go to my Yr 9, 11
and 12 student helpers, Mrs McClelland, Mr
Armstrong and Mr Dunn for their amazing
assistance and help on the day. THANKYOU so
very much !!!
Congratulations to our students who have
progressed to the Regional Carnival on Friday
2/6/2017 at Cambewarra. These students have
been given the required information. Please
advise the PE STAFF ASAP if any runners
are unable to compete or you require
another information sheet.
Congratulations to all of our competitors and
good luck to our regional runners. Thank you all
once again for your efforts this year!

South Coast Basketball
On Tuesday 16th May Maddie Dodson, Elly
Hazelton and I went to Goulburn Basketball
Stadium to play in the South Coast team with a
great coach and an awesome team. We knew
we had a good chance of doing really well. Our
first game was very challenging as their side
was very competitive. Sydney West were
beating us by 15 points but with very good
sportsmanship our team came back and put the
game into extra time. The sportsmanship
continued for 3 days from 16th to 18th May and
although we didn’t win the competition we
worked very well as a team and it was a great
experience.

Year 12 Chemistry students from Mulwaree,
Crookwell, Yass, Young and Boorowa High
Schools participated in a cross school
assessment task. This task involved
measuring the water quality or chemicals in
the water at Mulwaree High School wetlands.
Students collected water from various
dams as well as sampling water from an
aquifer (ground water) that runs across
and under the school grounds. Students
then returned to the laboratories and
analysed the salt levels, pH, hardness
and other ions.
We were also grateful to have a
presentation from Goulburn Mulwaree
Council representatives on the treatment
and purification of Goulburn tap or
drinking water. Students were placed
into small teams to complete this work, and a
big shout out to the Mulwaree High School
students who showed responsibility and
leadership in assisting the students from the
other schools.

Have you been getting absence notes in roll call ?
Have you been returning them ?
Who do you see if they are wrong ?
These absences will be recorded on Semester 1 Reports as
either explained or unexplained.
Think about how that will look to universities/ employers
and others !
Resolve them today ! See Mrs Randall if you need
assistance.
The cut off for resolutions will be the end of Week 8.
Congratulations to Madilynn Bayliss of
Year 10 on her selection for the NSW
State Dance Ensemble. Madilynn will
perform at State Dance Festival and
the Schools Spectacular as part of this
ensemble.

Alan Tongue is back in town. This time he is
inspiring 40 Mulwaree High School students to
reach their full potential. The Aspire program
provides a unique opportunity for students to be
mentored by a Canberra Raiders great and an
inspirational leader.
The Aspire program aims to motivate students
to take control of their future. Students have
been challenged every week to reflect on their
personal goals and realise the commitment
required to achieve those goals. The first 3
weeks of the program has resulted in impressive
efforts and positive change within all students.
Each session is broken into two parts with the
students working through the theory component
in class and then working through a rigorous
practical component. After the first three weeks,
there has been nothing but positives from the
students. Participants have found the program
challenging, inspiring and most of all uplifting.
Ex Canberra Raiders captain Alan Tongue has
delivered programs in schools across the ACT
and southern NSW. His recognition as ACT’s
Australian of the year in 2016 is one of many
accolades Alan has received for his hard work
and dedication to young people in the area and
is indicative of the positive effect the program is
having on the community. Alan’s passion and
enthusiasm is contagious, people cannot help
but want to take on the message he is delivering
and promote it to others.
Workers Club board member Greg McAleer has
once again expressed his support for the
program and was impressed by what he saw
when he visited Mulwaree High school during
the Thursday session. The program is proudly
sponsored by the Goulburn Workers Club and
would not have
been possible
without their
continued
generous
financial
contribution. For

It is always interesting to know what job
opportunities are available in and around
Goulburn. Reece Baker attended a quarry
visit with Ms Roberts and has reported on the
many jobs available in the local quarries.
Another interesting opportunity is the ANU
offering a new degree called Bachelor of
Health Science. The exciting aspect is, it
gives preference to students who are from a
rural area such as Goulburn. This degree
provides a direct track to study MEDICINE at
ANU. Previously, studying Medicine at ANU
was postgraduate only. This degree, starting
in 2018, needs: 1 ) an aptitude for Medicine
such as an interest or ability in Biology,
Chemistry or Physics, 2) the characteristics of
a “good doctor” a sense of belonging to a
community or a willingness to contribute to
rural areas and 3) an ATAR of at least 85.
This is a great opportunity please see Ms
Roberts or Dr Devery if interested.
Extractive Industries
On the 8th of May, 12 students from Mulwaree
High, Goulburn High and Trinity Catholic
College took part in an excursion to Marulan to
gain insight into the types of jobs the Mineral
Extraction Industry has to offer to students
during and after the HSC. The first stop we
made was at the Boral Peppertree Quarry,
which produces up to 3.5 million tonnes of
aggregate per year. Here we learned about the
importance of quarries such as these and the
types of roles the employees play to run the
site. Our second stop was at the Boral
Limestone mine in South Marulan. The
employees there shared their experiences with
getting a job with Boral. Our final stop was at
the Holcim Lynwood Quarry; here the
Environmental Officer explained the corporate
ladder of a multi-national mining company and
all the roles the employees play, from the CEO
of the company to the cleaners. She also went
into detail about all of the positions the Mineral
Extraction Industry offers, such as:
Engineers – civil, electrical, computer,
mechanical, environmental and geotechnical.
Managers – quarry manager, pit manager and
HR manager.
Administration and Finance – mine clerks,
accounts clerks, receptionist and accountant.
Supervisors – mill supervisors, pit
supervisors, warehouse supervisors and
safety officer.
Technicians and labourers – drillers,
blasters, heavy machinery operators, chemical
operators, mill operators, diggers and helpers.
Research and Development – lab
technicians, chemists, analysts,
environmentalists and geologists.
Other – water samplers, mineral samplers,
cleaners, assistants and apprentices.
