Middle School
Welcome to 2017!
Welcome to the start of what will be a busy and exciting year for Middle School students at RSC. It certainly appears that our staff and students have all enjoyed a restful break and we are looking forward to seeing motivated students achieve their personal bests in 2017!
There have been a few changes to the Middle School team this year. We would like to introduce ourselves and look forward to supporting you and your child in their endeavors:
Middle School Assistant Principal:
James Barut
Middle School Leader:
Matthew Tucker
Middle School Coordinators
This year the college have implemented House Coordinators as apposed the previous model where there were Year Level Coordinators. The Middle School House Coordinators for 2017 are:
- Shane Asbury – Frazer House
- Benn Jamieson – Freeman House
- Michael Kent – Jackman House
- Alyce Bailey – Mabo House
Uniform
As it is the beginning of a new year we felt that it was worth reminding parents of the expectations surrounding the summer uniform for RSC students. Girls should be wearing either the college dress or tailored charcoal shorts and a white shirt with college logo. Boys are to wear tailored charcoal shorts and a white shirt with the college logo. All students must be wearing white ankle socks and black, leather lace-up or buckled shoes that can be polished.
We ask that parents please try to provide only plain white socks for their child. Thanks so much to parents for their continued support with our uniform policy and also to the many students who continue to respect our college rules.
Year 9 InterGREAT
On Tuesday 7th February we launched our 2017 interGREAT program. The program is being directed by Virginia Watson, who is supported by a great staff team as follows:

Our very first speaker was college Principal Michael Phillips who spoke to the students about excellence and achieving personal bests.
Year 9 Camp
All Year 9 students will be heading off to the Phillip Island Adventure Resort on Monday 20th March for a three-day adventure camp. Medical and dietary requirement forms have been handed out to students. Please make sure that the medical forms are returned to the Middle School Office by Friday 24th of February. If your child is unable to attend for some reason please inform the relevant House Coordinator.
Year 10 Work Experience
Year 10 classes have started well and students are working hard to ensure that they achieve their very best. We ask that students, who have not yet arranged their placement for work experience later in the year, please do so as soon as possible. If you have any questions please contact Roi Boutsikakis via email: rboutsikakis@ringwoodsc.vic.edu.au
