WELCOME TO YEAR 6 Year 6 Transition activities
Year 6 students from all primary schools in town were lucky enough to participate in two full days
of transition activities at Canobolas. On Wednesday 23rd October students were able to enjoy a
showcase of the various extra-curricular programs run within the school. Students were
entertained by performances from the dance troupe, the school band, girls indigenous dance
group and the boys BREAC program. Year 6 students were also able to ask a panel of Year 11
students any questions that came to mind about what high school is really like. Students enjoyed
a game of touch football with older Canobolas students and then ended their day by
completing a scavenger hunt around the Canobolas campus to get familiar with all parts of the
school. Year 6 had a wonderful day and were looking forward to their second day which
involved classroom activities.

BREAC Games at Anson Street
On Thursday the 24th October 12 young men from Years 8 through to 10 spent the day at Anson
Street school running games with the students. The boys independently ran the games and
made sure all students were able to participate. The most exciting part of the day for the boys
was during recess where they were able to play a game of cricket with the Anson Street
students. Even though it was a very hot day in the sun, the boys continued to give each activity
100 percent effort. The boys exhibited the qualities of an exemplary Canobolas Rural
Technology High School student.

Around the World in 60 Days Year 7 Mantis have caught the travelling bug and are exploring all the ins and outs of planning
an overseas trip! Their destination of choice is currently Spain, learning the local lingo and
sampling traditional cuisine. They were excited to try their hand at making albondigas, Spanish
meatballs, and proved themselves to be exceptional cooks. Olé!

NEWS FROM BIG PICTURE Big Picture students clean up John Lomas Skate Park
As part of the Big Picture Education
design, students are required to
engage in social action through
collaborative service learning activities.
These are designed to foster key
personal qualities including initiative
and leadership skills, cooperation and
communication, awareness of others
and overall developing a sense of
active responsibility for our greater
community.
On the last day of Term 3, 2019, Thomas
Mackenzie (Year 9) coordinated a
morning of action with the junior
advisory, taking responsibility to clean up the rubbish and discarded bike and scooter parts
from the creek and area surrounding the John Lomas Skate Park.
Miss Penberthy drove the Canobolas bus, loaded with Big Picture students to the skate park
where they enthusiastically combed the murky waters of the creek, collected rubbish from the
grassed areas and cleared the cement surfaces of broken glass and other debris to enhance
the safety of all users.
A total of eleven bags of rubbish were filled and removed from the area with students leaving
the park far better than they found it, again demonstrating the willingness of our Big Picture
students to have a significant positive impact on our local community both physically and
socially.
Well done Thomas and his peers.
Ms J Penberthy— Big Picture Advisory Teacher

great way to stay cool as the weather is heating up! Students who do not wish to attend the
program will complete a summer safety booklet in a classroom during sport time as well as on
campus sport options. Students will attend the swimming program in the below organisation:

The 2019 Schools Spectacular is just a short month away and
Canobolas High School are proud to be taking two dance groups this
year; the Combined Dance group and the Aboriginal Dance group.
On Tuesday the 15th of October, the combined
Schools Spectacular dancers set off bright and
early for their first rehearsal at Cowra High
School. Having only learnt a short sequence of
movement from the videos sent to us, the
dancers had a lot of choreography to learn.
The students were taught
alongside other Western region
high school students and were
exceptionally behaved throughout
the day. They managed to get
through most of their section with
lots of choreography to practice
back at school!
Well done to the 10 dancers who demonstrated an excellent ability to
pick up choreography and show their commitment and dedication
towards this years Schools
Spectacular!

Wednesday 23rd October saw Canobolas High School’s 7/8 Boys and Girls Touch Football
teams compete at the 7/8 All Schools Carnival in Orange. It was a perfect day for competition
and both sides were eager to get out on the field. Both teams displayed great sportsmanship
over the course of the day.
The girls team only having seven players show up started strongly winning their opening two
games against Wellington High School and St Matthews Mudgee. The girls then came up
against a strong James Sheahan side who outran the girls. They backed up to face Orange
High School where again the girls ran out of legs with only one sub. The girls then played Blayney
High school winning a close game 5-3. They finished the day against Wellington High to ensure
everyone had played enough games, the girls used their speed to run out convincing 6-0
winners. This placed them in 3rd position overall at the end of the day. Hayley Murphy, Manaia
Nixon and Mackenzie Palazzi were great in attack throughout the day with Bethany Powell
being the best defender.
The boys team started the day well with a nice win over Wellington High School 7-3. the
continued this winning form over the next four games defeating Blayney High School, St
Matthews Mudgee, Oberon High School and Orange Christian School. In their final game of the
day the boys came up against Orange High School who were also undefeated. It was a fast
paced game with both sides exchanging tries. Orange High in the end ran out winners 6-4. This
placed the boys in 2nd place overall after a big day of touch football. Nate Davis led from the
front in attack and defence, with Harry Greenhalgh working hard in all games. Harrison Kukla
was great on the wing scoring some nice tries after great lead up work from the team.
A big thank you to Max Wilson and Dylan Birks for refereeing throughout the day. Thank you to
Mr Francey and Miss Somers for organising and coaching on the day.

Exhibition Extravaganza
Year 8 had their exhibitions last week for Art of War and Crimes Against Nature. On Wednesday,
students exhibited and discussed their work about Vikings and Medieval Europe. Students
presented models of board games, replica shields and helmets.
On Friday, students conducted an expo to present their research and findings about
endangered animals. The whole school was invited to come and see their presentations and
vote for which presentation and booth was best. The winning group's animal will be supported
through school fundraisers in 2020.
