Term 3 Week 10 September 2014
Two students from Wauchope High School, Skye Auld and Emily
Lester were part of the CHS all school’s under 16’s volleyball team
that competed in Adelaide at the National championships. That they
had been selected as two of the top ten under 16’s volleyball players
in the state is prestigious enough however, both girls excelled at this
tournament that has seen many previous and current Australian
Olympic volleyball players compete in on their pathway to Olympic
glory. Both Skye and Emily were part of the starting line up in every
game of the tournament and both girls were outstanding over the
entire week. Skye was our starting setter in every game and her agili-
ty, play selection and cover behind the block as well as her accuracy
and variety in attack was an honour to witness. She improved expo-
nentially over the week and many coaches from opposing teams
consistently identified her as our best player. Emily played as an
outside hitter and passer in the back court and her combination
through rotation 5 with Charlotte Lloyd was our most productive and
successful attacking combination. Her passing was simply outstanding and her hitting, particularly her back court attack was
complimented by many high level coaches and scouts present at this tournament. The girls showed they certainly belonged in
this outstanding class of potential Olympians and the experience they have gained will assist their future volleyball aspirations.
They were outstanding ambassadors to Wauchope High School and their level of play resulted in an Australian coach remark-
ing to me, “You guys must have a solid volleyball program in Wauchope, those 2 girls are technically very solid and consistent”
Well done to both girls on an outstanding achievement at a National level. They are a pleasure to coach and have outstanding
potential in volleyball.

Welcome to the next P & C Meeting : 21st October, usually the 3rd Tuesday of the month. Common Room 7pm.
Apex speaks to WHS From the Principal...
Today was a very special day as we
celebrated the end of 13 years of
schooling with the graduating class of
Year 12 2014. Their final assembly was well supported
by family and friends and included a number of heartfelt
and moving speeches by students and teachers as well
as recognition of the significant achievements by a large
number of students over the past 12 months.
I would like to acknowledge the large amount of work
done by staff in making sure that the assembly and
morning tea that followed went smoothly and was a
fitting celebration for students and their families. Thank
you and well done.
In farewelling the 2014 Year 12 cohort we wish them
well for the future and encourage them to aim high,
work hard and never give up on their dreams. We also
hope that they keep in touch with the school over the
coming years and let us know of their achievements and
successes.
During the last two weeks Year 7 spent 4 days out on
year group activities and overall they appeared to have a
great time. We hope that as a year group they have used
these experiences to come closer together as a team
and that the skills learnt and experiences had will build
their resilience and focus for the future.
Our Year 9 students return to school today after the
Year 9 camp to the Gold Coast. I am guessing that there
are a number of tired students and staff after their hec-
tic program of fun and team building. I look forward to
hearing the stories from their week away.
I also need to let all parents and caregivers know that the P&C Uniform shop has new operating hours and these are Monday 8.30 - 9.00 am and Friday 8.30 - 9.00 am. As we move into the school holiday break I would like to thank everyone for their work and support over the past 10 weeks. I encourage everyone to have a relaxing break, however, I do expect those students who still have HSC examinations to sit to use this time wisely in preparing for those examinations. We look forward to welcoming all students back to school on Tuesday 7 Oc-tober. Glen Sawle (Principal)
Apex Club came and spoke at WHS assembly recently,
informing our students about the long running Apex
Speaking Competition for Years 7-12. Heather and
James from Apex would be glad to hear from any stu-
dent who is interested in this competition so ask your
English teacher or Ms Jones for more details.
More last day fun for Year 12– a game of
bubble soccer against the staff!
Congratulations to a former Year 12 Wauchope
High School student who last week was
awarded the Rotary Mid North Coast Police
Officer of the Year, elected by his peers!

Basketball
Recently WHS Boys and Girls Basketball teams
travelled to Port Macquarie Indoor Stadium to
compete in the Lower North Coast Gala Day.
The girls played Port Macquarie High first, and
whilst they were very competitive against a well-
drilled team, they were defeated 34-7. Maddi
McKenna scored five of the seven points,
including a three-pointer.
The boys also played Port Macquarie in their first
game and were also defeated 31-21. Josh Jones
hit three late three-pointers to even the match up,
whilst Tristian Wright-Scott, Quin Bromfield and
Jarod Thomas played well in defence.
The girls played Kempsey in their second game,
and were able to have a lot of fun, as they
dominated the encounter to run away with a 39-14
victory. Nicara Donovan and Maddi Boxhall led the
scoring, whilst Abbie Watson, Tylah Bloomfield,
Chloe Birdsall and Georgia Williams were all
strong in defence.
The Boys played Bowraville Central and they too
were able to secure a solid 40-18 win. The scoring
was shared evenly, with every player scoring at
least one basket during the game. Tyrell, Blake
Lionel and Ben all enjoyed more opportunities to
demonstrate their skills. Tyrell and Jarod both hit
three-pointers, which impressed the huge crowd in
attendance.
This was a really good day to help these students
to develop their skills in a competitive
environment, and was very enjoyable as they were
all excellent ambassadors for the School.
Thanks Mr Hancock and Mr Starr!
