Message from the Principal….
I would like to take this opportunity to thank
the students, families and staff of Park
Ridge SHS for their unfaltering support this
year. Our school has been focused on
raising attendance rates, ensuring a strong
approach to literacy development and a
commitment to our community values of learning, integrity and
teamwork. We have done this believing that aiming high and
investing in “Excellence in All We Do!” ensures we all meet our
full potential.
The Academic Awards Night was a wonderful way to celebrate
the achievements of our students and their commitment to
“Excellence in All We Do!” Every student is to be congratulated
for their effort and hard work and we recognise the outstanding
achievement of our Senior Dux, Amber Wedge and our Junior
Dux, Thanh Nguyen. The night was filled with exceptional
student talent from the Stage Band, to the amazing vocal work
of student David Ilalio-Tonata and our Dance Troupe in “New
York, New York”, to the compelling visual art work displayed on
the walls of the Student Activity Centre. I was also impressed
with the quality of our ‘School in Review’ media presentation
depicting the diversity and vibrancy of our learning community.
The Year 12 Graduation was a sentimental celebration of the
individual contributions of our Year 12 students to the life of
our school during their time with us. Inspirational speeches
demonstrated how much these young people have touched our
lives and how much we will miss them. I would again like to
thank the staff for their hard work and the support of families
in making these two important occasions so memorable.
Preliminary indicators would suggest that all Year 12 students
are exiting with a Queensland Certificate of Education.
Congratulations to the students and the tireless energy of the
Senior Support Team.
As the year comes to an end it is important that we keep
the focus on learning and supporting our Junior Secondary
Students as they complete their final assessments.
In keeping with our investment in high expectations for our
community, I would ask that we think about the uniform for
next year. Shoes must be all black or all white leather or vinyl
(no embellishments or logo’s), ankle white socks must be worn
and our full school uniform. Natural hair colour is essential and
piercings cannot be worn at school. We have a full uniform
outline on our school website and in our school organisers.
I appreciate the honouring of this enrolment requirement and
appreciate your support for our uniform school.
Being in class, on time, with all of the tools for learning is
essential to meet learning goals, as is participating in every
lesson bell to bell.
I have been proud of the achievements of our community this
year and look forward to capitalising on those achievements
next year.
I hope that everyone has a very happy and safe Christmas
break.
‘The only thing in our control is effort, that’s all and that’s
everything’ Mark Corburn.

Our 25th Annual Awards Evening was held on Thursday 19

Sports Awards
On Wednesday 18 November, Park Ridge State High School
was privileged once again to hold the Annual Sports Awards
in the Student Activities Centre. This night included a host of
special guests from local members of parliament to staff. It
was an awesome turn out by many teachers, students; family
and friends and the 2015 Sports Captains Sarah Shuttlewood
and Nic Stiffel were MC’s for the evening. While the evening
was about celebrating student success in sports, there were
many highlights throughout the night including the outstanding
video’s by Ms Del Prado, showing the involvement in this year’s
fun and exciting sporting events. Every year there are nominees
for the junior male and female sports man and woman of the
year, and senior male and female sports men and women
of the year. The winners in the junior category were; Mitchell
Fitzpatrick and Zoe Edwards and the senior awards were
Camryn Newton-Smith and Jonah Martin. Congratulations
to them and all other award winners on the night.
We also had the privilege of welcoming Leigh Harding,
currently working for the Brisbane Lions, as a special guest
who was interviewed by Craig McBrien. Entertainment was
provided by our talented Remix group. They had worked very
hard to present us with an entertaining piece. Well done! Thank
you also to all Year Coordinators for presenting the many
awards on the night. A major thank you to Michael Purtle and
Mark Biggs for making sure that the night ran smoothly; the
night would not have been possible without your contribution to
the school. Well done to everyone involved and we look forward
to sport at Park Ridge in 2016!

Tuesday 9 and 10, November. The Music night was the perfect
opportunity for the students to display many of the perfected
pieces that they have been focusing on this year. The arts
department would also like to thank the tireless efforts of the
Instrumental Music Support Committee.
Special Guest Leigh Harding with Craig McBrien; MC’s
NickStiffel and Sarah Shuttlewood; Senior Sportsman of the
Year nominees Jonah Martin, Alex Sauer and Aidan Duncan.

The Arts
Park Ridge State High School Arts faculty focus on
extending learning through opportunities which foster a
school culture in which creativity and excellence are
celebrated.
Park Ridge State High School Arts faculty has been very busy
lately with a Film Television and New Media presentation night
that showcased some of the productions that the students
have been working on. The graduating class is full of talented
students in this area and their creativity and skill were on show
on Friday night, 6 November.
We were happy to showcase the talent that we have at
Park Ridge State High School and appreciate the fabulous
support “The Arts” receives from the wider community.

Year 7 Geography Excursion
Over the past two weeks, all of the Year 7 students have
undertaken their first field study for Geography. In our unit that
focuses on liveability of an area. They have completed a primary
data survey of the nearby Boronia bushland and surrounding
Park Ridge area. Despite the humid days, students took it all
in their stride, as they walked the designated path in order to
assess the various locations on the map.
The first stop was the Park’ n Ride, where students assessed
the area for its accessibility, aesthetics and serviceability to the
community. They also stopped to listen to the area’s noise
levels, noting that while the highway had some sound barriers,
it did little to block or limit noise, particularly as it was a major
thoroughfare for trucks.
The Instrumental Music program has had much success this
year and it has culminated recently with the Instrumental Music
Awards evening which ran over two nights on Monday and
6
The next stop involved a collection of observational data about
how well the area serviced its local residents. They determined
that there were a lot of services that catered for a wide range
of different residents and age groups. Some things noted were
a childcare centre, a primary and secondary school, dance
studio, shopping centre with all necessary services – including
postal, news, health and groceries, an aged care facility, and
even a nearby Chinese restaurant.
From there, students walked to the nearby Boronia bushland,
where they noted huge differences in housing lot sizes and
street facades. Some homes had pretty gardens and were well
looked after, while others needed some maintenance to keep
up street appeal. As they walked these local streets, they also
noted that the residents were well-provided for by the local
council, with rubbish removal, stable electricity supply and a
local free newspaper delivery.
Once they got to the nearby bushland, there were notable
differences to the green space and how the council had
continued to provide for their local residents. Some things
students noted were well-maintained pathways, aesthetic
features such as small bridges across dry river beds, and
brightly coloured parks, which had BBQ, toilet, drinking and
picnic facilities. While there were a lot of facilities, students did
manage to point out various instances where graffiti was found
on residential fencing, the bridge, and even on informational
maps.
Along the way, students had to take note of the difference in
temperature and noise, environmental aspects, such as flora
and fauna, and record their observations in their field study
booklet. In addition to finding the collection of this primary data
useful for their assessment, students found their excursion to
be informative and educational, as well as relaxing (despite
the heat). Now they must analyse this primary data, collect
secondary data, via online research and then complete a
reflective paragraph about possible improvements to the area,
in order to complete their final assessment piece for the year.
These students have done a fantastic job working with Griffith
University to involve the school community in following science
events and activities –
• A bridge building competition held to celebrate
National Science Week. This event attracted a large
number of student teams keen to build the strongest
bridge.
• Organised students to participate in the Griffith
University Annual Trivia Challenge. Our students
participated strongly.
• Held regular lunch-time science challenges.
• Conducted Science club meetings.
Well done team!

It’s Maths Moments Like These…
“It’s Maths Moments Like These…,” presenting simple, real
world maths opportunities for you to support your child in
improving their numeracy. Christmas is upon us. A time for
families to come together, exchange gifts and eat too much
ham. Christmas also provides many opportunities to further our
children’s numeracy skills.
Junior Secondary School Students
Planning the big family Christmas lunch is an ideal opportunity
for your child to learn how to budget, shop for best value and
to multiply with fractions and increase quantities.
For example: that secret family recipe for the perfect Christmas
Pudding, which requires 750g of mixed dry fruit and 1/3 cup of
brandy, will only serve 8. Guide your child through the process
of doubling the quantities of all the ingredients for the extended
family members.

Mrs Munro – Year 7 Ignite Teacher
Science News
Congratulations to Year 12 student Josh Lai for gaining
direct entry into a Bachelor degree in Occupational
Therapy at Griffith University. Josh successfully completed
the Griffith Biology program. Griffith Biology is a two-year
part-time university course which builds on the Biology course
PRSHS students study at school. This course incorporates
learning activities and experiences (e.g. tutorials and lectures)
which value add to the units that the students are studying at
school. It also enables students to experience an integrated
university course whilst completing their senior studies.
STEM Ambassadors
This is a group of aspiring science leaders selected to engage
their peers in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and
Mathematics). The ambassadors are – Taylor Meerwald,
Breanna Wilken, Theresa Torrent, Kirra Klane and Chloe Lai.
Secret Santa presents are always a fun way to give gifts to
large families. Getting value for money is an important skill these
days. Seeing how far one can stretch a $20 or $40 gift limit
is almost an art form. Help make smart decision and to justify
their gift choices. We often find that students are unable to
intelligently communicate the reasons for their decisions and
recommendations based on their mathematical results.

Business class ‘Heart Kids QLD’
Fundraiser
This semester in Year 10 Business class, we
were given the opportunity to raise money for
a charity of our choice. This year, we decided
to raise money for Heart Kids QLD, a charity
that I am personally touched by. Heart Kids
QLD is a charity that supports families with children who have a
congenital heart disease. We raised approximately $800 as a
whole. My enterprise class ran a ‘Guess the Hearts in the Jar’
competition. The other enterprises ran a raffle with three
different prizes. The project was a fun and active opportunity for
students to get to know one another and work together to
7
achieve one main goal - to raise money for Heart Kids QLD. I
just want to thank everyone who helped out by buying raffles or
guessing a number of hearts. It is a big help for Heart Kids
QLD.
Breanna Wilken - Year 10 Student
Playful Rascals
Another fun and exciting year of playgroup has sadly come to
an end. Thank you so much to families that join us every week
and our dedicated students that work so hard to make learning
fun. Playful Rascals will recommence on Friday 12 February
from 9:15-11:30am. We hope you all have a happy and safe
holiday, and can’t wait to see you all again next year!
