TRANSCRIPT
Term Four has been busy as usual. We have farewelled our senior students and wish them well for their NCEA exams which commence this week.
SPORTS AWARDS I would like to thank all the parents and family members who attended the Sports Awards evening. It was a very successful event. A special thanks to the work of Mrs Coe and her team of able helpers for their efforts in making it a memorable occasion. Once again, our congratulations to the winners and a big thank you to all the coaches and parents whose support has ensured students can participate in a wide variety of sports.
SENIOR PRIZEGIVING Thank you also to all those who took the time to celebrate the academic successes of our students at this year’s Senior Prizegiving. Our top prizewinners were:
Dux - Finn Roberts-Craig Proxime Accessit - Peta Butler
YEAR 13 LEAVERS DINNER This year the Leavers Dinner was held at the Waiuku Cosmopolitan Club. It was a very successful event attended by 200 students, staff and family members.
YEAR END As we close out the year, the burning issue is the current teacher shortage. We have fared better than other schools in the region in recent years, but this is changing rapidly. We hope the various reviews being currently undertaken in education will provide solutions to this looming problem. Nga Mihi Kia Koutou Mark Nickless, Acting Principal
FACEBOOK SCHOOL PAGE We have been using the College Facebook page for over a year now. It is primarily intended to share news and events with our parent community. Along with the School App is it also useful for last mi-nute reminders or notification of changes to school activities or the school day. The page is not moni-tored to answer questions that parents or page followers have. Queries should be directed to the school office or by phone or by e-mail.
09 235-8139 or [email protected]
COMMUNITY SURVEYS Thank you to all the parents and students who completed the Rongohia Te Hau surveys in Term 3. We obtained a lot of very valuable feedback which has been looked at by staff, school leadership and the Board of Trustees. This helps us review how effectively we are meeting the needs of our students and our community and helps inform our strategic planning and goal setting for the next few years.

BUYING THE FIRST CAR FOR YOUR CHILD? I sit on a mortality review group as a principal representative for Counties Manukau and one of the areas we review is car accident deaths involving under 25’s. Sadly the older, less safe types of cars that our students often have as their first vehicles, can be a major factor in the consequences of an accident after a youthful error of judgement behind the wheel. I asked our NZTA representative to provide me with some advice for parents considering a first car for their kids.
Choosing a car for your young driver If you have more than one car available, give them the safest car to drive whenever possible. They'll benefit the most from the enhanced safety features. It's best for them to use a family car while they build their experience so you can manage safe access to it, but if you're helping to choose a car for your young driver, go for the safest one you can afford. You can find more information on the RightCar website including used car safety ratings.
Make sure they know about basic car safety. It will be useful if anything goes wrong, but it will also help them build good safe habits around proactively looking after the car they drive.
Research from Monash University into crashes involving young New Zealand drivers suggests that if all teens drove the safest car available (of the same age as their current car), death and serious injury rates for teens could be reduced by more than 70 per cent.
New Zealand research by the University of Otago has found that while most parents have some say in the cars their teens choose, only one in five parents consider safety factors in the choice of vehicle for their teen - with most considering small engine and vehicle size as the most important factors.
Safer vehicle choices don’t have to be the newest, most expensive, or even the biggest models. The latest used car safety ratings show that there are a number of makes and models of used cars with 4 or 5-star safety ratings that could be affordable and appro-priate choices for young drivers.
Source NZTA Website
Driven.Co.NZ also recently published an article in the NZ Herald with advice similar to that given above. They also reported the Monash University findings that a driver of the worst rated vehicles for safety is more than 10 times more likely to be killed or seriously injured in the same crash as a driver in the best rated vehicle. Recent data showed that 40% of those killed were in cars 15 years or older, while only 15% were in cars less than 5 years old.
Food for thought? Do we allow our young inexperienced drivers to have their first year of driving in the least safe cars? Will their youthful mistakes be more heavily penalized than if we had made sure they were in a 4 or 5 star safety rated car.

NCEA AND SCHOLARSHIP EXAMINATIONS
Key Points to Remember This year’s NCEA exams started on Wednesday 7th
November and will finish on Friday 30th November.
Morning exams start at 9:30 am and afternoon exams at 2:00 pm. Students should arrive 30 minutes before their first exam and 20 minutes before all other exams. Students who arrive more than 30 minutes after the start of the exam will not be allowed in.
Students must wear proper school uniform. If they are not in uniform they will not be allowed into the exams.
All senior students, except those who are not doing exams, were given a copy of their Admission Slip. This sets out the date and time of their exams. Students will be given their original Admission Slip when they attend their first exam. They must take great care of their Admission Slip because they will not be allowed to sit their exams without it. If they lose their slip they must see Mrs Everitt who can provide them with a replacement.
Students have also received a copy of the 2018 National External Assessment - Instructions and Information for Candidates. This leaflet provides more information about the exams and exam rules.
Derived Grades Under certain circumstances you can apply for a Derived Grade if you miss an exam. A Derived Grade is based on evidence, such as your Practice Exam results, and is awarded by NZQA for the standards you missed. You must complete a Derived Grade Application form and provided appropriate evidence. You can get a copy of the form from the school office or you can down-load it from the NZQA website (www.nzqa.govt.nz) If you miss an exam because you are unwell, you must get a doctor to complete Section B of the form. You can also apply for a derived grade if you believe your performance was affected because you were ill. Again, you will need to ask your doctor to fill in the relevant part of the form. Students can also apply if they are affected by a serious or traumatic event, e.g. being involved in a car accident on the way to the exam or the death of a close family member. All Derived Application forms must be handed to Mrs Everitt by 12 noon on Friday 7th December. For more information contact Mrs Everitt.
Results Exam results are released in mid-January. Students can either log into the NZQA website (www.nzqa.govt.nz) to view their results or they can order a Results Notice which will be posted to them. Students wanting to receive a Results Notice should order it online via the NZQA website before the end of December. Students who have paid their fees can also order one free copy of their Record of Achievement and NCEA Certificate.
CONGRATULATIONS! A huge congratulations to Jenni Smith for winning the Country Music Award for Entertainer of the Year – Best original song!
We are very proud of your achievement Jenni.
END OF YEAR We would like to wish the students all the best for their exams and to ask that upon the last day of their exam, or as soon as possible after their last exam has finished that students come into the student office to do their clearance. If they have no exams but have items at home that need returning, they may bring these to the office at any time.
Please return the following items if you have these at home:
Waiuku College library books.
Text books, which may have been borrowed during the year for study.
Any sports or borrowed school uniform items.
Check the school donation and any outstanding fees have been paid and collect the 2018 school magazine which will be available in the last week of school (after 4th December).
School magazines are available at $20 for those who have not paid the school donation.
Any queries can be made by phoning the school office on 235 8139.
We wish you all the best over the summer break from the team at Waiuku College.
PRIMARY INDUSTRIES Level one students gave the Horticulture unit a spring clean. The gardens are looking great with plenty of vegetables and flowers growing.

Second-hand uniform We would very much appreciate any second-hand uniform items that you no longer require. We are especially short of girls shirts and blouses.
Holiday Job at Seed Solutions Seed Solutions are based in Patumahoe. They produce sweet corn and maize seed for clients in the Northern Hemisphere and look to employ a number of school leavers each year to work in their fields. It’s a good opportunity to earn some money before heading off to Uni or starting their career.

Waiuku College girls 1st XI trip to Rarotonga This year the Waiuku College 1st XI Girls Cricket team were lucky enough to tour the beautiful island of Rarotonga for six days.
The visit involved games against both invitational and Develop-ment teams, which allowed both groups to enrich their skills and knowledge of cricket. The games were challenging but also fun, valuable, and played in high spirits, including one that continued after dark.
The team also enjoyed the beautiful sights and sounds that Rarotonga had to offer, which included swimming in the crystal clear waters, snorkeling with the Captain Tamas Lagoon trip and tasting fresh local cuisine. The team were also fortunate to be invited to Takitumu Primary School, which enabled us to get a glimpse of Rarotonga education, including learning to drum and play the ukulele whilst giving back by teaching cricket skills. The team would like to thank the Cook Islands Government, Cricket Association and Pukekohe Toyota for all their efforts helping make this possible.
