From our Principal

Sharing knowledge, understanding, and commitment to student progress.

Student learning and growth is a partnership of the best sort. When teachers and mentors work with parents and a broader community to support young people, great things happen for those young people! Each person in this set of relationships occupies a different role, and these roles evolve over time as a child matures and moves through the School, but each one is important.

In Junior School, students are usually very happy to have parents helping at home with homework or enquiry investigations, listening to reading, or other school-based activities (and parents are often amazed at the curiosity and energy of their young learner!) Later in Junior School, and through Middle School, many or most young people become less open to parental involvement, and this tends to carry through to the end of secondary school, more’s the pity. Part of this is about the development of autonomy, part is about the uncertainty of adolescence, it may be influenced by lack of personal confidence or feelings of the need for privacy at times, and of course there is often a tendency to feel one’s parents are a little ‘past it’ when we are teenagers!

So, maintaining the triangle of parent, School and student working collaboratively together becomes more challenging for many parents as  students mature, but its importance does not wane, and in fact it possibly becomes greater for some students. Two things are key in this:

First, reflecting on my time as a parent to two Year 12 students, it is clear to me that to be able to support and assist my Year 12 (or Year 11, 10 or 9), I needed to keep the engagement, assistance, and support constant through Junior and Middle Schools, sometimes at odds with my own child’s wishes, which was a tricky challenge to navigate. I also look back and feel strongly that consistent contact and presence with classroom teachers in Junior School, subject teachers and Pastoral Mentors and Year Level Co-ordinators in secondary is/was also critical. Both these can be unpopular with children at times and balancing the maintaining of relationships with our children is also key to future connection and opportunity to support. As we often say to students about academic preparation, you can’t just turn it on at the business end of things, and partnering with our children in their learning is no different! We cannot start it in Year 12!

The second is to find and use opportunities to establish or strengthen the parent, School, child learning partnerships. This is something that has gradually become more visible in schools, and ours is no exception. I particularly think of what used to be called ‘Parent/Teacher’ meetings. Parents would meet with class or subject teachers, teachers would inform parents of the good and not so good (historically often much more of the latter, sadly) and then at some point this might then be conveyed to the student by the parent. Missing from this is the voice, understanding and shared commitment of the student. This is the reason we have moved all secondary and many of our more mature primary student year levels to ‘Student Progress Meetings’ with the student present and participating.

These meetings offer impressive potential to share achievement and progress and to discuss improvements, and for all partners to co-contribute to plans for the future. They are powerful learning tools for young people, and support effective learning partnerships that amplify outcomes for students. However, for a range of reasons, some students may be reluctant to attend. In the spirit of the power of partnerships, student attendance is what makes these so powerful. So, from the first opportunity, please strongly encourage your child to come to these and if queried, use the ‘why’ of the ‘this is why it’s a good idea’ as persuasion. They will reap the benefits to their learning and in the relationships that these meetings foster.

Senior Visual Arts & Design Exhibition 2022

Visit our exhibition 

We hope you can join us for the official opening of the 2022 Senior Visual Arts & Design Exhibition on Friday 14 October, 6.30pm – 8.30pm in the Visual Arts & Design Exhibition space.

We are thrilled at its return to the social calendar after a 2-year hiatus. Please join us for a night of celebration and accolades for everyone involved. As teachers – we often see the hard work that goes into completing a folio subject. The opportunity for students to exhibit their final work in the Senior Art Show is one where we can celebrate the striking achievements that the students have produced from VCE Studio Art, Visual Communication Design and Product Design Technology. Friends, family and the wider community are warmly welcomed.

This exhibition is a celebration of the creativity, ingenuity and dedication of these young artists and designers, and is open for viewing from 8.30 am to 4pm weekdays until 20 November.

Alongside the works are artists statements that explain the concepts behind the works, as well as the students visual diaries and folios – which are artworks in themselves!

We will be serving refreshments on the opening night, and guests will be treated to various speakers, including a renowned local artist Emma Jennings as well as the 2022 Art Captains.

ELC News

Term 4 off to a flying start

The first week back has been filled with children warmly greeting their friends and re-establishing friendships. The children have enjoyed sharing their stories of what they did during the two-week break. From swimming for hours in a pool at Port Douglas, to seeing a real octopus at the Aquarium to riding their bike or watching the footy, the children have certainly been busy.

The children are excited to be back in their classrooms and engaging in a variety of learning experiences.  Our learning environments are planned and adjusted accordingly to meet the changing needs of all children and to promote and maximise children’s learning and development, enhance inclusion and support children’s curiosity.

As the weather warms up the children have been enjoying spending time outside. Our new wooden tee pee has been a great attraction to our ELC play ground. The children were delighted to see it and already it has been used for a variety of things – from a castle, to a spot to hide when playing hide and seek (a favourite game at the moment for many of our Early Learner children!), a quiet area to sit and think, an area to read, build with blocks or have fun with a friend.

We look forward to supporting and extending the children’s skills, knowledge and learning in our programs over the coming weeks of Term 4.

Girls’ Junior School News

You decide to wander in a city by walking 3 blocks North, then 4 blocks West, then 5 blocks South. You keep walking like this: 3 blocks, then 4 blocks, then 5 blocks, turning 90 degrees left after every stretch. What does your path look like? How many times do you turn before you return to where you started?

Teaching Mathematics is one of the more complex aspects of being a Primary Classroom Teacher. A wide range of concepts lie within the subject, and students bring a wide range of abilities, experiences, ideas, misconceptions, and attitudes to the classroom. At Tintern a powerful platform assists teachers in Years 5 and 6 to hit the sweet spot and ensure students are learning.

Maths Pathway, to which all Year 5 and 6 students are subscribed, is a collection of online resources. Initially, adaptive tests referred to as ‘Diagnostics’ establish a student’s prior knowledge. Based on this, the system recommends which students should partake in small group teaching sessions focusing on specific concepts from the Australian Mathematics Curriculum.

When not in the small group sessions, students work independently using the targeted online modules. A specific skill is covered in each module which contains explanations, videos, diagrams and a series of questions. Modules are only made available if students master the prerequisite skills, ensuring that independent work is achievable.

Fortnightly tests are automatically generated based on recently completed independent tasks. Success on these tests confirms mastery of the concepts. To complement this, there are problem solving contexts referred to as ‘Rich Tasks’ such as the above city walking problem, and quick warm-up games or prompts known as ‘Energisers’.

Behind it all is a database of staggering usefulness. The regular inputs from diagnostics, completed modules and tests generate data which teachers can act on immediately, in all 12 strands of Mathematics and up to Year 10. The data is displayed and broken down in various ways and allows teachers to track progress and set goals individually, accurately and efficiently.

Support is provided to teachers by the Mathematics experts and educators who run the platform. Teachers who are asked to teach students working at a very high level are supported by the platform through resources and lesson plans. They often observe that students working at a very high level have high enthusiasm for Mathematics and are able to take control of their own learning.

The Year 6 Girls were asked what their favourite parts of Mathematics are:

 

‘Learning to do algebra because it’s a new concept and personally I find it very interesting and fun’. Milla

 

‘My favourite part of maths is decimals because I finally learnt it, and its fun to do’. Sierra

 

‘I like algebra and Pythagoras because they stretch my brain’. Shriya

 

I encourage you to try to solve the above problem, (use some grid paper). You can then start playing with the parameters, altering the numbers and see for yourself what happens!

Boys’ Junior School News

On Friday we had the pleasure and privilege of sharing in the Year 12 Leavers’ Assembly, an opportunity to acknowledge and thank our Year 12s as they come to the end of their Secondary Schooling.

Georgia Norton, who has been at Tintern since Pre-Prep, spoke of her journey and was followed by Mark Evans, who joined Tintern in 2014.

I have attached a copy of Mark’s speech, as written and prepared by him, with this news. It is a considered, personal and impactful speech that is a just reflection of his outstanding character, including humility, care and strength, but also holds some key messages for our boys that we shared in Assembly yesterday.

 

Another significant moment in the Assembly was when Prep girl Emily, and our very own Prep boy Titus,  presented our 12s with a card from our Prep-Year 2 girls and boys, giving our ‘leavers’ best wishes as they begin their new chapter.

Titus’ confidence and leadership as he read the card was wonderful…I look forward to seeing him up on stage at the Leavers Assembly in 11 years time.

Welcome back to Term 4

It was great to see the many smiling faces return to campus on Monday 3 October to begin the final term for 2022. Our Year 12s (and those in other year levels studying a Unit 3 and Unit 4 subject) had spent the two weeks of the holidays busily studying and preparing for their upcoming examinations. This included the trial examinations that we ran in the second week where all our Year 12s were rostered through a timetable of mock examinations as part of their practice and revision process. These trial examinations are run in the same manner as their VCAA examinations later this month, helping to ensure that our students are aware of the format and procedures.


Year 12 Leavers’ Assembly

On Friday 7 October we held our Year 12 Leavers’ Assembly where we had the entire school (Prep – Yr 12) assembled in CM Wood to congratulate and celebrate the Class of 2022. The assembly included a special welcome to the Year 12s followed by reflections from two of our longer serving students on their experiences through Tintern and Southwood in the earlier days.

There was a video that played photos from the years past of all the Year 12s bringing many of them to tears as they all reflected on their own journey to this point. To conclude the assembly our Class of 2022 were provided with a guard of honour from the rest of the school, including our ELC students. This guard of honour snaked it’s way around the Junior School buildings and back up to the Senior College with all students and staff from the school lining the journey and providing them with celebratory support.

Music Matters

Term 4 to start with a bang!

In years gone by, we in the Music Department have always looked forward to the start of Term 4 with great anticipation, as months of work in Term 3 culminated in our musical performances at Celebration Evening. In 2020 and 2021, Term 4 started with a bit of a whimper in Music-Land, but 2022 brings us back to much rehearsing and music-making before school and after school, as we prepare for the big night next Monday 17 October. We are very much looking forward to hearing the musical offerings of our students, as interludes between the award presentations and speeches.

And the pièce de resistance on the night will be the premiere public performance of our new School Anthem, By deeds not words. It will be wonderful to have such an important community event conducted ‘live’ again and we look forward to joining Tintern families at Robert Blackwood Hall next Monday evening.

Health Matters

Thunderstorm Asthma 

With the arrival of spring comes grass pollen season, lasting from October to December each year.  Through this time we will see a seasonal increase in asthma and hay fever.  It also brings the chance of thunderstorm asthma.  A large number of people can develop asthma symptoms over a short period of time, caused by high amounts of grass pollen and a certain type of thunderstorm, it is known as epidemic thunderstorm asthma.

We would encourage any students who suffer from asthma or hay fever to be aware of thunderstorm asthma and how it may affect them.  Where possible our school community will avoid being outside during thunderstorms, especially if there are windy conditions beforehand.  All students with asthma should have an up to date asthma action plan filled in by your local Doctor.  Reliever medication for asthma students should be carried on them at all times.  Hay fever sufferers are encouraged to take daily anti histamines to help combat symptoms across this period.  Being aware of the daily forecast is also a useful tool, and at Tintern First Aid this is something we will keep a close eye on during the school day. 

Further details are available in the attached document around how this is managed on a daily basis at Tintern Grammar.

Please see video below which explains thunderstorm asthma, useful for both parents and students to view.
