It has been a pleasure to congratulate so many students in the Year 9 and 10 Celebration Assemblies this week. It was great to see the range of achievements for academic, sporting and cultural endeavours, as well as awards for good citizenship and Manaakitanga. Thanks to Sophie Aitkenhead and Taylor Bell for their polished playing of a flute duet in the Year 9 assembly. Thank you also to the staff whose work makes these special assemblies possible. For a list of award winners see page 2.

My thanks to our staff and students for the hard work that went into this term. It’s been a very busy term of teaching and learning, exams and marking and there have been many other important activities, including Tournament Week, enrolling for Year 9 in 2018 and subject selection for next year’s courses. A reminder to all senior students, however, that they must set aside time in the break to study for the external exams and to complete work needed for any outstanding internal assessments.

I wish everyone a well-deserved break over the next two weeks. Sue Blakely, Principal

Student Trustee ElectionsCongratulations to Abbey Oliver 12MWS who was elected as the new Student Trustee on the Board of Trustees.

Senior Clearance and the School MagazineClearance time is almost here. Senior clearance will be held on Tuesday 24 to Thursday 26 October. For your son/daughter to be eligible to receive a 2017 school magazine, all subject and sports costs and the school donation must have been paid in full, unless an automatic payment is operating and all costs are paid in full by the end of Term 4. Rosehill College can now accept payment by credit card at the Cashier's office and the Resource Room.

Although the school donation is voluntary, the Board of Trustees requests that you give serious consideration to paying this if you have not already done so, as it provides for many things not covered by the government grants that we receive. For example, the school magazine is fully paid for from parent contributions and cannot be purchased.

Congratulations to the following students who received awards at the Celebration Assemblies held on Monday and Wednesday of this week.

Rotary Club ScholarshipsRemember applications for the Papakura Rotary Club Scholarships are available in Careers or at http://papakura.rotary.org.nz/education.html and close on THURSDAY, 19 October. To be eligible you must be planning on tertiary study - this can be at University, an Apprenticeship or Polytech course. You must live in the wider Papakura District. Completed applications and references need to be given to Mrs McConchie BY WEDNESDAY, 18 OCTOBER end of school day.

Girls RugbyOn Thursday 28th September the Rosehill College girl’s rugby team were given the opportunity to go along to the Black Ferns public celebration ceremony. It was held at the Manukau Vodafone Events Centre. Thank you to ASB for supplying transport to get our girls to and from the venue. It was inspiring to hear the questions and answers of some of the team especially from team captain Fiao’o Fa’Amausili who confessed that she has not yet watched the replay of the final match where the Black Ferns beat England to win the Woman’s Rugby World Cup 2017. Fa’Amausili mentioned that she has not had a lot of down time since returning from Ireland where the World Cup was held due to renovations of her house and studying to become a police officer.

The girls thoroughly enjoyed this trip and were motivated by the determination of these women to prove that with hard work it is possible to be the best.

Sports AwardsThe Rosehill College annual Sports Awards will be held Thursday 2 November, doors open 5:30pm. Tickets will go on sale Week 1, Term 4 and will be available to purchase from the Sports Office or school Cashier.
