From the Principal - Ms Reeves
Welcome to Term 3
Term 3 is a particularly busy term. It is a term of endings and
a term of planning for new beginning for next year.
Year 12 students commenced their HSC trials this week. In
the weeks that follow, many of our Year 12 students have major works
and HSC practical exams. The term ends with their graduation and
formal. I know for many students, the planning and preparation for the
formal takes much thought and effort.
Year 11 students end the term with their Preliminary exams. The exams
are only six weeks away! In Term 4, Year 11 students commence their
HSC course work. Of course, there are some students who have been
accelerated and in Year 11 will be sitting the HSC exams.
The subject selection process for Year 10 into 11 and Year 8 into 9 has
commenced, with parent-teacher evening last term and the subject
information evening in Week 2. Year 8 selections were due in Week 2
and Year 10 are due Thursday 9 August.
Given the range of courses and patterns of study in Senior years, we
have given intensive support for students so they can make choices
that maximise their post school options. Prior to making selections, all of
Year 10 are individually interviewed by the Careers Advisor, Year
Advisor, Deputy Principal or Head Teacher Senior Studies. This is a
massive task, to which the teachers give up much of their time. I thank
Mrs Scott, Mr Wilcox, Mr Jankovics and Mr Finley for giving their time to
help our students make the best possible choices. Students then take
part in “subject samplers”, where they select senior subjects for a trial
lesson. The final part of our subject selection process for Year 10
Page 2 Muirfield Matters
students is an individual interview for each student with his/her parent.
The interviews will be held on Friday 17 August. in the library. Again, this is an
enormous task but one we feel is beneficial for students and families.
By the middle of this term curriculum pattern in 2019 will be established so that our
Timetable Team, led by Mr Finley, can construct a timetable for all students and
teachers.
Refurbishments
Classes have commenced in two of our refurbished Science laboratories. The labs
are bright, light and open; providing a great learning environment. They also have
a new fume cabinet which is necessary for some experiments.
The new administration foyer is open for parent and student use. We have a fresh
public entrance, however there is still a bit of work to do to complete the
renovations in A Block. These should be finished by the end of term.
Recognition Awards
At the end of Terms 1and 2, we hold assembles for students in Years 7 to 12 who
have demonstrated the core values of the school both inside and outside of the
classroom. Term 2 winners are published in this issue.

MADD – A night not to miss
Our annual showcase of music, art, dance and drama is on again at Parramatta
Riverside Theatre on Monday 31 August. For an exciting night of entertainment, it is
not to be missed.
Swimming Success
Luke Garment Year 9 has been in Hobart competing at Australian
School Swimming Championships. Luke finished with Gold in the
4 x 50 freestyle relay; Silver in 50m Butterfly, 50m Freestyle and the
4 x 50 medley relay; and bronze in the 100m butterfly. On the final
day of swimming, he also volunteered to swim in one of the
Northern Territory relay teams as the NT did not have enough
swimmers to form some relay teams. Fantastic sportsmanship and
absolutely brilliant results!
Sydney Water Refill Station
You may remember last year, one of our Year 7 English classes won a water refill
station and were second in the ad competition in the state. 7G’s English teacher,
Ms Cole, entered her class in Sydney Water’s Brand without a Bottle Competition.
The competition enabled the students to engage in an authentic learning
opportunity. Students had to write the script for an advertisement that had an
emphasis on persuasive language, which would convince consumers to drink tap
water rather than bottled water. Our students’ script and storyboard were
shortlisted. Together with the opportunity to film the ad, they won a water refill
station. The water refill station is in constant use, and is robust enough to stand up to
constant use by teenagers.
Ms Cole has repeated her success. This year, 7G had the opportunity to spend the
day filming the commercial for which three of the class wrote the storyboard and
script. Congratulations to Rachael Dunk, Gabriella Greco and Isabel Redoblado
Being shortlisted wins another water refill station for Muirfield, which will be installed
later in the year. When it comes time to vote, we will email and ask for your support

Upcoming Concert Band Tour – North Coast & Dreamworld
Interested in joining this tour?
September 28 to October 2, 2018.
Leaving last day of term, returning on first Tuesday of the school holidays
On the last day of this term, the Muirfield Concert Band will be departing on its third
bi-annual band tour. This year students will be travelling up the Pacific Motorway via
Port Macquarie, Coffs Harbour and Grafton before arriving on the Gold Coast where
they will perform at Dreamworld theme park.
This 5 day, 4 night tour is not only limited to current Concert Band members. If your
child plays (or used to play) a Concert Band instrument and would like to join us we
would love to have them along. There is still plenty of time to begin attending
rehearsals and learn the parts!
Muirfield Matters Page 6
We are also offering limited places to other students who may wish to join us as:
*Public Speakers (to MC our school and community concerts. This would suit senior
students/school leaders who are confident in speaking in front of groups.)
*Video/photography crew
*Web/social media team
*Dance and/or Drama – to perform a combined item with the concert band
Permission notes to Band members will be sent home shortly. Please contact
Muirfield Band Director, Mr Steven Lavis at [email protected] if your
child has not received on. If you are interested in one of the additional non-musician
positions, email Mr Lavis for details or speak with Ms Reeves or Ms Frame.

Year 7 went to Featherdale Wildlife Park as a part of our Science topic Cells and
Classification on Tuesday 26th June. All students who went on this excursion had
a great time. We looked at all the animals, patted them and learnt about how
and why we classify animals.
We saw many animals at the zoo, all to help us
learn about how to classify them. Some of the
animals we saw were dingos, wallabies,
crocodiles, snakes, and echidnas.
To learn more on the topic classification, we
went to the learning centre in the park to look, pat and learn about the different
animals and to learn a bit more about how we classify them.
First, we were shown a shingle back lizard (also known as a two-headed lizard).
The educator told us some interesting facts about the shingle back lizard like why
it is sometimes called the two-headed lizard. She came around with the lizard
and we could touch him if we wanted to as well.
Next, it was time to meet the Children's
python. The amazing and the cuddliest one
out of the three was the all-important koala.
Touching him was a once in a lifetime
opportunity due to most other wildlife parks
and zoos not allowing koalas to be picked up
or patted. His fur felt like sheep wool but softer.
Time flies when you are having fun! Before we knew it, the day had gone and it
was time to hop back on the buses and back to school. That was a great day.

Year 11 First Aid Course
On Friday July 27th, forty four of our Year 11
Sport Coaching and PDHPE students attended
the Provide First Aid Course run by the Australian
Surf Lifesaving Academy of New South Wales.
The course was very well received by all
students, thanks in large part to the highly
informative and engaging presenters. The
course compliments Sports Coaching
competencies and the PDHPE syllabus and
provides students with a nationally recognised
certificate in first aid that they can use in their
current or future work places.
All students participated to the best of their
ability and enjoyed the unique experience this
course offers.

Muirfield High is coming to the catwalk!
We are planning an exciting fundraiser for 2019. We are looking at hosting a fashion
show to celebrate mothers and daughters, coinciding with Mother’s Day 2019.
If you would like to help us arrange this exciting event, please contact us on
[email protected]. This is not something that we have hosted before, so
we invite help and suggestions from our school community.
The idea of this event is more about community than about how much money we
raise. We hope it will be an opportunity to make new friends, celebrate the amazing
women in our community and if we raise some money to buy much needed
resources for our school, it will be an added bonus.
If you have some experience in this area and would like to co-ordinate this event or
help get us off the ground, we would to hear from you.
Contact details
Should you wish to get in contact with the P&C, uniform shop or canteen, our email
addresses are as follows:

PARENT AND CAREGIVERS PLEASE DO NOT DRIVE INTO THE SCHOOL
GROUNDS
In the interests of student safety, parents and caregivers are not permitted to drive onto school grounds at any time, including before
or after school, to drop off or collect students, or to
attend meetings with staff.
There are deliveries and staff accessing the car
park at different times during the day and the
access is very narrow.
The only exceptions to this is when either you or your passenger has
a disability or if you are picking up a sick or injured student.
STUDENT SAFETY IS UP TO ALL OF US

Parramatta Boys AAL Squadron is enrolling for Term 3
2018 We are writing to let you know that the Parramatta Boys Squadron of the Australian Air League has is
enrolling cadets for Term 2 2018 at its meeting location at LOT 1 Edison Parade, Winston Hills NSW
2153 on Tuesday evenings from 7:15 until 9:15pm.
The Parramatta Boys Squadron is one of the oldest Squadrons in the Australian Air League, forming in
1935 and for many years met in their hall at Jubilee Park, Parramatta. Unfortunately, progress took its toll
and the hall that the Squadron had met in since the 1940s will soon be redeveloped, so the Squadron has
taken the opportunity to move into a new area at Winston Hills.
The Air League is inviting young people, who may be interested, to come down with their parents and learn
what the Air League has to offer. The Australian Air League is a nationwide organisation for young people
aged from 8 to 18 years. Staffed by volunteers and self-funding, it teaches leadership skills and provides a
wide range of interesting and exciting activities such as camping and hiking, sport and physical recreation,
building and flying model aircraft and ceremonial drill. Through classes and practical demonstration
members learn the theory of aviation and a wide range of associated topics such as Meteorology,
Navigation, Aero Engines and Aircraft Construction, as well as general interest subjects such as
photography, field craft and community service.
The Air League also provides a range of flying experiences for its members, from simple scenic joy flights
through to gliding and powered-flying training, from private pilot licence (PPL) through to airline entry
standards – all in aircraft owned, operated and professionally maintained by our staff.
Running a strong program that is both fun and educational, the Australian Air League is making fine
citizens out of young Australians. Currently there are also a number of other Squadrons in Western Sydney
including Penrith, Richmond, and Blacktown as well as Squadrons at Epping and Ryde.
Girls with an interest in aviation may also contact the Blacktown Girls Squadron via our 1800 number
below.
