PRINCIPAL’S REPORT
MR STUART GLASCOTT
I acknowledge Mr Stuart Glascott and Ms Marion Martin, who led Highview College through 2015. During
his tenure, Mr Glascott implemented changes which have allowed the School to move forward in 2016.
With dignity and compassion, Ms Martin guided the school community through a difficult and very sad
final term, in 2015.
IN MEMORY
Mrs Dulcie McDowell (Mrs Mac) sadly passed away on 24 January this year at the age of 88. Mrs Mac
was an integral and much loved part of Highview College from the school’s inception in 1974 until her
retirement in 2013. Many past students and staff attended the Thanksgiving Service, with many more
passing on their thoughts and prayers. Mrs Mac will be fondly remembered by thousands of past
students and staff.
Stephanie Nicholls (Year 10) tragically passed away on 4 December 2015, following a brave battle with
illness.
Ashley Hepburn (Year 11) died on 12 October 2015. Tragically, Ashley chose to take his own life.
Stephanie and Ashley’s deaths are still felt deeply by the Highview community and we continue to
support their families, in particular Stephanie’s sister Casandra (Year 11).
2015 VCE RESULTS
Students can achieve at the highest levels at Highview College. In the annual High Achievers Assembly,
both current and former students were recognised for their hard work, dedication and success in 2015.
The Dux of Highview College for 2015 was Emily Wiseman with an outstanding ATAR of 99.20. She was
presented with the Don Da Fonte Award, which is presented to the Dux for outstanding academic
achievement. The maximum study score in a VCE subject is 50 at Year 12. To be awarded a Dux or
Academic Excellence award, students must have attained a score of 40 or more, thus being in the top
eight percent of Victorian students for that subject. The Australian Tertiary Admission Rank, or ATAR, is
a percentile score up to 99.95 which indicates a student's ranking relative to his or her peers. The
awards that were presented at the recent High Achievers Assembly represent outstanding achievement
in the following categories:
1. Academic Excellence Awards for students who attained a Study score of 40 or over.
2. Subject Dux Awards for those students who attained the highest Study score in their subject with a
scaled or un-scaled score of 40 or above.
3. College High Achiever Awards for students who attained an ATAR score of 80 and above.

HIGHVIEW SUB SCHOOLS
At the commencement of 2016 we aligned the learning spaces around the age and stage of students
attending Highview. The physical, developmental and social differences between a 12 year-old and an
18 year-old deserves consideration and accommodation. We now have three distinct Schools:
 Junior Secondary (Years 7&8) located in the Brigidine Wing
 Middle School (Years 9&10) located in CIA and MI5 wings, and
 Senior School (Years 11&12) located in the VCE Centre
SENIOR SCHOOL LEADERS
Both year groups in Senior School have common rooms and easy access to the Careers Counsellor and
VCE Co-ordinator. Aside from their traditional jerseys, the introduction of blazers and ties also identify
our Seniors as being the leaders of the College. The strength in our student leaders is an illustration that
young people can achieve anything. Mitchell Bench, Madeline Moran, Jack Chandler and Ellie Leishman
all lead with generosity of spirit, grace and perseverance.
SRC
In 2015, 17 students were elected as Student Representative Council members. The President, Megan
Armstrong, led the group in organising the school Social and out of uniform days. These events helped
to raise money for causes such as donating towards the Vietnam Community Service trip, supporting the
students to participate in Energy Breakthrough, assisting in the purchase of sports tops for the College to
use in school sport events, along with several other donations. In 2016, the SRC will continue their great
work, under the leadership of new President, Keely McDonald.
POSITIVE EDUCATION AND MINDFULNESS
Pastoral Care is a strength at Highview. The relationships between staff and students characterise the
trust which has been established between adults and young people. The majority of staff attended a
Carol Dweck Seminar on a Saturday in March. This illustrates their collective commitment to being the
best that they can be in supporting Highview students.
MISSION MONTH
This year we chose to ‘think locally’ through supplying Anglicare with items they have indicated are of
use to people experiencing crisis. The kindness inherent in the act of giving makes a difference to the
recipient of these practical gifts: toothbrushes, shampoo, etc.
CAMBODIA TRIP
Another major community service project this year was 12 senior Building & Construction students
building two houses in Cambodia for disadvantaged families. This was a life-changing experience for
those who attended and met the families they were assisting.
JAPANESE VISIT
The cultural exchange with Japanese students from our sister school, Shibuya Junior High School
continues to be a highlight of the Highview calendar. The friendships forged over this busy 12-days last
lifetimes. Everybody involved, gains an insight into another culture and overcome challenges of
communication, expectation and assumption.
3
SEQTA
The School has embraced SEQTA, an online learning program which will allow us to track and monitor
student progress and report to stakeholders as students complete assessment tasks, rather than at the
completion of units of study. SEQTA will also enhance communication with families.
PRE-SERVICE TEACHER PROGRAM
Highview has forged links with Federation University and will have undergraduate teachers working with
our experienced staff throughout the year.
PROFESSIONAL PRACTICE
Continuous ongoing strategic professional development improves practice. Every staff member is
engaged in professional learning, goal setting and reflection.
LESSON OBSERVATIONS
In 2016 Area Heads regularly observe lessons taught by staff in their faculties. Staff reflect on their own
practice and Area Heads provide additional feedback. This is a process that is constructive and designed
to improve practice.
HOUSE COMPETITION
The Swimming Sports involved competitors only. This year we invited Year 7 to attend, and, as a result
of how well this was received, House competitions have been reinstated as full school events. Students
have responded positively to the introduction of a House Spirit Award for each carnival. I commend the
Sports Co-ordinator, Luke Treacy, and the House Captains for their commitment to ensuring these
events engage Highview students and are well-organised and well run.
ICCES SPORT
Highview students had the opportunity to participate in various ICCES events over the past year,
including swimming, athletics, netball, basketball, soccer, cross country among others. Once again we
participated in a very successful Winter Sports Carnival, in Shepparton, over two days.
HIGHVIEW COLLEGE VS MEC SPORTS CUP
We have continued our competition with MEC in football, soccer, netball, basketball and cricket with
some great results and many ‘personal bests’ and impressive teamwork from both schools.
ENERGY BREAKTHROUGH
Energy Breakthrough 2015 was very successful for the Highview College teams. The three school teams
placed in the top four in their respective sections, a brilliant team effort!
The Zazu Junior squad had several members participating in their first secondary school event. The
team achieved high scores across all sections, including second in the race and were the overall
winners.
The D-Rex VCE team were very consistent across the event to place third overall in the HPV C division;
just a few points from winning. A great effort by all, especially considering the move to place three male
junior riders into this team.
The Brazilian Bullant HPV Open team, as defending champions, performed well in all categories. Of
the 30 competing teams they were able to finish fourth
overall, and with four new riders have set a good base
for this year.
Congratulations must go to all riders and pit crew for
their efforts, attitude and behaviour across the event.
The team spirit and family involvement was excellent
and the joy and feel amongst the group was very
positive. A big thank you to all staff and parent helpers
throughout the entire program and particularly the
weekend, and to Mr Treacy for co-ordinating the event.
Of course none of this would be possible without our
many sponsors – thank you!
We are now looking forward to EBT 2016!

CAMPS
In 2015 the Year 7’s spent 3 days in Norval at Halls Gap. Students had the opportunity to participate in
activities such as canoeing, mountain bike riding, bush cooking, among many others. The Year 9
students spent 3 days at Lady Northcote Recreation Camp at Bacchus Marsh, where they participated in
many team-building activities such as rope courses, canoeing and initiative games. Year 10 students
participated in a 3 day Melbourne city experience. The students get to experience life in the city and visit
many attractions as well as learning how to use the public transport system.
PARENTS & FRIENDS ASSOCIATION
I would also like to acknowledge the work of the Parents & Friends Association, led by President Donna
Bell. This small but dedicated group do so much for the school and I thank them for their continued
support of Highview.

POST YEAR 12 DESTINATIONS
Data supplied by the On Track Survey 2015 (Year 12 2014 students):
YEAR 12 2015 STUDENTS
Of the 65 students who completed Year 12 in 2015, 61 students sat the examinations. Of these 61
students, 48 applied for Tertiary courses. That was one of our highest ever percentage of students
applying for tertiary studies.
Of the 48 students who applied for tertiary studies 44 received first round offers. This is an amazing
result and a great credit to the students concerned.
11 students from the Class of 2015 will attend a tertiary institution in Melbourne, 29 will attend in
Ballarat/Bendigo and 6 will attend in Geelong.
STUDENT ATTENDANCE FIGURES 2015:
9
Strict attendance records are kept with rolls marked every lesson. Absences are followed up by phone if
parents/guardians do not notify the school as to the reason(s) for student absences.
Long term and regular absences are followed up by the Pastoral Care team (Year Level Co-ordinators)
who contact the families to organise meetings and discuss their concerns, including the implications of
regular and long term absences. Ongoing counselling is sometimes provided.
The average student attendance rate for 2015 was 90%.

NAPLAN
Highview was behind the State results in NAPLAN at Years 7&9 but generally aligned with or better than
National results.
Our strongest area at Year 9 is Numeracy. Our weakest area at Year 9 is Writing.
At Year 7 our strongest areas were Reading, Numeracy and Grammar and Punctuation and Writing
represents an area for improvement. This improvement appears to be occurring (comparing the
NAPLAN results in these areas are across Year 7 and 9).
