The wonderful Cast of “The Addams Family” Musical Production
No.11 August 4 2015
THOUGHT OF THE WEEK
“When written in Chinese, the word crisis is composed of two characters. One represents danger and the
other represents opportunity.”
JOHN F. KENNEDY
FROM THE PRINCIPAL CLASS
“The benefits of co-curricular activity in schools have been extensively researched and it has been found that students who participate in these activities develop higher academic results, better relationships at school, and are more likely to lead healthy, active lifestyles when they leave school” (Broh, Beckett 1988). Addams Family The Koonung and Whitehorse communities were treated to a spectacular musical: The Addams Family. What talent we have in the Koonung community including students, staff and parents. I was fortunate to be part of the audience on opening night and watched in awe as we saw: Fester falling in love with the moon; Gomez trying to keep a secret from Morticia; Morticia insisting her guests play the game of “Dull Disclosure”; Wednesday falling in love with Lucas; Pugsley being zapped by his sister; Grandma and her many different potions; Lurch having an amazing voice after grunting all night; seeing how Mal, Alice and Lucas Beineke cope with dinner at the Addams Family house; the scaring spirits of the dead trying to keep love alive; the backstage students transform the sets many different times; and our amazing instrumental students and parents. The passion and dedication shown by our staff, students and parents was testament to a great musical. Thank-you for bringing back my childhood memories of watching The Addams Family. VCE Interviews Last week I was involved with a large group of teachers who interviewed all Year 10 students to discuss their VCE pathways and beyond. It is a rewarding time as you help guide students through the challenge of subject selections. I recall one student who was very unsure when he came in to discuss his pathway but after reviewing his report, subject ideas, future study ideas and focusing on his strengths, I was able to show him that he had many options available. The Careers Team has developed this invaluable process of counselling for all our future Senior School students. Maths Week It was great to see so many students involved in the Maths week at Koonung trying to solve many different numeracy problems including the popular “M&M Jar” activity. Thank-you to our Maths Domain Leader, Marilyn Fathfull, and teachers for the time and effort in developing the activities and problems. These Domain Weeks provide every student with an opportunity to be involved in the many the special activities conducted by the specific subject areas. School Visits Anne Abbott, Assistant Principal, has joined a small group of Principals with the Victoria Association of Secondary Schools Principals to visit educational venues in Finland for the next 8 days. On Wednesday 12th August, I will have the opportunity to join another group of Principals as we tour three top performing secondary schools in the North Eastern region of Melbourne. This is a great opportunity for Koonung as we broaden our educational outlooks. Throughout the year, the Principal Team have many schools groups coming to view the school to research our various College programs. Monash University – Dr Trent Brown Trent is a Senior Lecturer in Physical Education and Teacher Education within the Faculty of Education. He is also the President of ACHPER Victoria (2011-2015) - the professional body for Health and Physical Education teachers. He is currently involved in researching VCE PE pedagogical practices at various secondary colleges throughout Victoria,
including Koonung. This is a wonderful opportunity for Koonung to be involved with ongoing teaching and learning professional research. Ski Camp I am fortunate to join a dedicated group of staff taking 50 Koonung students to Mt Buller for skiing and snowboarding. Mark Threadgold started the planning for this camp last year as lodges on the mountain are booked out very quickly. The camp is in its’ 15th year and is popular amongst our students as we challenge them in an alpine environment setting. This is just one of the many co-curricular activities that students can access. Science/Food Complex Plans for our new Science/Food Complex have been approved so that the building of the new structure can commence in the Term 3 holidays. The College is planning to have the complex open for the beginning of 2016. Father’s Day Celebration Fathers, come and join your sons/daughters at our annual Father’s Day Breakfast on Friday 28th August from 7.30 to 8.30am. Please register through the TryBooking link on the Koonung SC homepage: http://www.trybooking.com/IOGG (for catering purposes) by 20th August. Staff Replacements Erika Haberle from the Arts Domain will be on leave for the remainder of term 3. We wish her an enjoyable break. We welcome Shane Castricum, an experienced Art teacher, as her replacement. 2016 Enrolment vacancies We have a small number of vacancies at Years 8 and 10 for 2016. Applications are now open for 2016 new enrolments. Please access the Koonung webpage (www.koonung.vic.edu.au ) and click on enrolment enquiries.

KOONUNG PRESENTS "THE ADDAMS FAMILY" 2015
This year's musical production of "The Addams Family" has been a huge success with 4 out of the 5 shows sold out. The 24 cast and 16 crew members have worked tirelessly to put on a fabulous show filled with great music and lots of laughs. The production team: Mark Anderson, Susanna Wailes, Zoe Taylor, Ryland Sack, Chelsea Thomas, Luke Wilcockson and Sophie Andrew have loved working with the students and are so incredibly proud of their efforts. Watch this space to discover what next year's show will be...
INFLUENZA SEASON
As everyone is aware, the influenza season is well and truly upon us. We have had lots of our students away with nasty colds and they are taking at least 3 to 4 days to recover. If your child is unwell with ‘flu like’ symptoms, please keep them away from school and limit their contact with others. Please do not send your child to school with instructions to “ring me if you don’t feel any better” as this very often results in you having to leave work to pick them up anyway. We need to be considerate of other students with underlying medical conditions such as Asthma and Heart conditions as the complications for them can be twofold. Despite constant reminders here at school, students are not very careful with personal hygiene when it comes to cold and ‘flu’ prevention. Your best defence
against colds and ‘flu’ is to wash your hands often with soap and water, especially after you cough or sneeze. Other things such as covering your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze and throw the tissue in the rubbish straight away. Avoid touching your mouth, eyes and nose. It is very difficult with our hectic lifestyles to remember to be diligent with prevention. The greater the prevention, the more likely you are to avoid becoming unwell with the ‘flu’. A little extra time spent now might keep us fit and healthy and avoid having to take lots of days off work or school.
2015 PARENT OPINION SURVEY
Randomly selected families will have now received the 2015 Parent Opinion Survey (in the mail) from the school. The survey is designed to take no more than 20 minutes to complete and your feedback and opinions play an important role in making our school the best it can possibly be. It is important that as many surveys as possible are completed and returned to the school by Tuesday August 4th. Should you require another survey, please contact the school.

MATHS MATTERS
Maths Week
Last week students celebrated Maths Week with a variety of activities.
Problem of the day: Each day 30 – 60 students submitted a solution to ‘problem of the day’. There were three
categories (7 & 8, 9 & 10 and 11 & 12) and correct solutions, with working shown, earned a chocolate. Prizes were
given to Ayana Dobie of Year 7, and Ellen Liu of Year 10 for the most correct entries in their category. Many students
successfully solved questions in categories higher than their year level.
M & Ms guessing competition: A jar of M & Ms in the library generated lots of interest. Students had to not only
guess the number in the jar, but also estimate the gross weight. There were 666 M & Ms in the jar and it weighed
1565 grams. Amy Moore, of Year 10, guessed 665 and Jack Kerr, also of Year 10, guessed 1530 grams. Isabella Zhu
also guessed 665 but Amy was awarded the jar as her guess for the weight was closer.
Poster Competition: The winner of the Maths quotes poster competition was Daniel Shen of Year 9. He created a
typography poster using a quote from Richard Preston: ‘If equations are trains threading the landscape of numbers,
then no train stops at pi.’
Australian Mathematics Competition: Students across the school participated in this on Thursday. Here’s an
example of a problem from the Year 7 & 8 paper:
A recipe requires 2 kg sugar, 4 kg butter and 6 kg flour to make 8 cakes. How many cakes can you make if you have 9
kg sugar, 17 kg butter and 28 kg flour? (a) 40 (b) 34 (c) 37 (d) 32 (e) 36

Maths Challenge Results
During Term 2, students in the Enrichment Maths groups in Years 7 & 8 had the opportunity to participate in
the Mathematics Challenge for Young Australians – Challenge Stage. This involved solving 6 problems over a
three week period – the problems were not straight-forward and required persistence, but involved
mathematics known to the students.
Two students scored High Distinction – Jamie Nastas (Year 8) and Lisa Yamamoto (Year 7). Their results
placed them in the top 10% of entries across Australia. This is indeed a fine effort.
Distinctions were also achieved by the following students:
Year 8: Sarah Bacon, Connor Diamantopoulos, Hamish McLean and Silvia Valente.
Year 7: Elisha Punay and Reka Ropolyi
Well done.

2015 IMPRO MELBOURE SECONDARY SCHOOLS THEATRESPORTS
CHALLENGE
After a semester and a half of blood, sweat and drama games, the Koonung Theatresports Club are competing
in the annual Impro Melbourne Secondary Schools Theatresports Challenge. On August the 9th at The Space
on Carlton Street, Prahran, two Koonung teams will step up and lift their metaphorical swords of theatre in a
salute to improvisational comedy. For the seniors Paige Joustra, Jacob De Santis, Miguel Lourenco-Keene,
Gareth Clauson and Lexie Thodis will do battle with the best thespians other Melbourne schools have to offer.
For the junior competition Miranda Burg, James Wilson, Jackson Birch, Friyana Madon and Kendal Varley will
represent the pride of Koonung’s impro team. Combining wit, physical comedy and bravery under fire,
Theatresports invites competitors to choose and compete in different improvisational Drama games that are
rewarded by judges for their originality, entertainment value and theatresports technique. Ms Julia Hodson
and Mr Peter Hodkinson will accompany the students and will be cheering them on from the sidelines. Both
are very proud of the two teams brave enough to have a go at what is a very difficult discipline, and would like
to thank Drama Captains, Paige Joustra and Lexie Thodis, for all their hard work coaching the Theatresports
Club every Thursday lunchtime this year.

Teaching Kids How to be Sad
Posted on July 27, 2015 by Shridevi Generation Next
Helping the next generation live with feelings, not pathologise them. Young people in our society are increasingly worried and upset – not about any aspect of their life in particular – but about being worried and upset. This is a relatively new phenomenon. In the 1980s, surveys of teens showed
they were worried about school, the future, relationships, friends, the environment and war. Today surveys of teens show they are also worried about one additional area – mental health. Not surprisingly therefore, young people are hypervigilent about their own difficult feelings. Almost every young person who comes to our offices seeking support has googled their ‘mental health’ symptoms. They feel shocked, worried and depressed about having intense negative feelings. Many of them have diagnosed themselves with depression and anxiety. They see their difficult feelings as abnormal, needing treatment and unable to be tolerated. Last month Sarah, aged 16, sat in my office. She had broken up with her boyfriend the day before and spent the day crying. By the end of the day, her mum, desperately worried about her – had taken her to the GP. Within hours of her break up, Sarah was taking anti-depressant medication.
What message about life and about suffering does this send? Unfortunately, as a result of our attempt to destigmatise mental health problems we have sent some unhelpful messages. We have sent the message that strong difficult feelings are unusual, abnormal and pathological. I am worried about what this means for the long term resiliency and wellbeing of our young people. I have procrastinated about writing about this for a long time because I have been worried about being seen as trivialising mental health problems. Before I go any further, let me set the record straight: * I believe that anxiety, depression and emotional pain are agonising experiences for many individuals. * I believe many people have been born with brains which are especially predisposed to anxiety and depression, and that there are some “purely biologically” driven factors which strongly contribute to the experience of anxiety and depression. * I believe that in many cases medication for anxiety and depression is a useful and life-saving tool. However, I also believe that both mild and severe anxiety and depression are far more common than what a ‘disease’ model implies. I believe both mild and severe levels of anxiety and depression have complex and multifaceted causes. I believe people with both mild and severe anxiety and depression need support and a range of options to help them cope with how they feel. Some of these messages have not reached young people. We need to teach young people that for many of them, on many days – they will feel simply terrible. And when this happens they should reach out to others and get support and help. But that feeling bad is not a rare “brain disease” but an unfortunate part of life – more so for some – but still commonly experienced by many. Most importantly, we need to teach young people that with the right help and support – they can meaningfully live with all kinds of difficult emotions and cope with all kinds of difficult situations. By Kirrilie Smout, Clinical Psychologist Specialising in supporting Kids and Teens
Kirrilie helps kids and teens develop resilience, cope better, stay calm and get through tough times. More information, and free articles and resources for teachers and parents can be found at www.developingminds.net.au
Tackling Anxiety and building Resilience in young people Anxiety in children is a normal part of childhood development. But it’s estimated that 8-22% of children experience anxiety more intensely and more often than other children, stopping them from getting the most out of life. In this presentation one of Australia's leading child and adolescent psychologists will discuss what is normal anxiety and what is not, what are the common anxiety disorders and what parents and carers might do to build happy and resilient young people.
