News and Events

Food Insecurity

March 24, 2022

In HASS class, our Year 9 students have been learning about the causes and solutions to global food insecurity. Students were surprised to learn that almost 2 billion people worldwide rely on insects as an alternative food source. Students got to sample edible crickets, meal worms and corn chips made from cricket powder. The insects were safe to eat and sourced from an Australian company called Circle Harvest. Some students thought they made a delicious snack, others were not so sure.

Will insects replace our steaks and our snags in the future? Only time will tell!

Harmony Day

March 24, 2022

Harmony Day, held Monday 21 March, celebrates Australia’s cultural diversity. Harmony Day celebrates inclusiveness, respect and belonging for all Australians, regardless of cultural or linguistic background. We’re proud of our diversity with over 40 countries represented in our staff and student body. Students are encouraged to wear orange accessories to celebrate Harmony Day. Traditionally, orange signifies social communication and meaningful conversations, the freedom of ideas and encouragement of mutual respect.

Interschool Swimming

March 18, 2022

On Monday 14 March our team of 22 Swimmers entered the Interschool Swimming Carnival at Challenge Stadium. Our competition was combined with a higher division which set the bar high. Our early results on the day had us challenging a place, and we finished with a respectable 5th place. We were extremely pleased with the commitment on the day and the camaraderie we saw from our students.

A special mention goes out to our Freestyle swimmers: Austin Fort (Year 10) who placed first, Molly Van Namen and Eddie White (Year 7) who came second and Curtis Datson and Zakary Bell (Year 7) who came third.

Big mention to Ava Smith (Year 9) who was Runner-Up Champion Girl overall. We are proud of each one of our competitors and have already enrolled to compete again next year.

An error was made in our latest newsletter that stated the incorrect Year 7 Champions for our Swimming Carnival. Harry Day and Jade Barbeau were the champions on the day. Well done to them both!

New staff: Tanisha Stewart

March 18, 2022

We are pleased to introduce Tanisha Stewart, who will be joining our HPE department. Tanisha’s passion for sport and capacity to support students are a welcome addition and we are pleased to have her on board.

I have the pleasure of joining the Health and Physical Education department at Aveley Secondary College. I completed my final practicum at Aveley Secondary College and was offered a full-time position at the school on completion of my studies.

I am eager to pass on my experience, knowledge and passion for Health and Physical Education to those I teach. My sport of choice is netball and gridiron, but I enjoy all sports and an active lifestyle. I look forward to settling in and getting to know the Aveley Secondary College community.

New Staff: Janelle Connor

March 10, 2022

Welcome to Janelle Connor, who is joining our HASS department. Janelle is a dynamic new teacher with global experience that she uses to engage students in their learning. We are delighted to have Janelle join our Humanities team.

I’m excited to join the HASS team here at Aveley SC, especially after spending time as a relief teacher at the College last year. My passion for Humanities grew in my own secondary education and I spent years leading tours and outdoor education expeditions for secondary students around the world. This included visiting more than 100 countries, every continent and following some historically significant overland routes such as the Silk Road. I’m looking forward to teaching both Humanities and Social Sciences and Careers and Enterprise to our students this term.

New Staff: Jackie Jarvey

We are so pleased to introduce Jackie Jarvey, who has joined our Home Economics department as our very talented Home Economics Assistant. Jackie comes with exceptional experience and is truly an asset to our team.

Hello I am Jackie and I look forward to enthusiastically bringing my diverse culinary skills acquired through previous years as a chef in executive establishments to our students here at Aveley. I also spent eight years as a small business owner and wedding cake designer. I try to always bring a cheerful presence to each class and promote student engagement.

Together with the professional Home Economics teaching staff, I hope to ensure the level of student education will be unlike any other.

Introducing Teneal Kounitis, a dynamic young teacher joining our Education Support department.

Hi, my name is Teneal Kounitis. I’m a second year Graduate with a Bachelor’s Degree in Primary Education, with a Specialisation in Special Needs Education. I’m very excited to be starting at Aveley Secondary this year in the Education Support Hub. I previously taught at an Education Support Centre last year, teaching Year 11/12s.

I’m very passionate about what I do and love to watch students achieve their goals and reach their potential. I very much enjoy working in the disability sector, this will be my sixth year.

New Staff: Naomi Higgs

March 10, 2022

We are very happy to introduce Naomi Higgs, who will be joining our Science department here at ASC.

I’ve joined the Science team at Aveley after working as a relief teacher in Term 4 last year. I recently graduated from ECU after previously working in the construction industry. I have always been enthralled by nature and on the weekends I’ll be out in the bush. I’m excited to pass on this passion to my students so they can hopefully one day contribute to preserving the wonderful landscapes we are so lucky to be able to enjoy in Perth. I love it when students come to say hi and share their weirdest Science fact with me!
