Transcript of Js bulletin 13 2014
Student Learning and TeachingA number of classes adopt the strategy of Literacy Rotations to help develop the literacy skills of students. The College is fortunate to have a number of parents help out with these rotations. This parental help enables the class to be broken into small groups, helping to differentiate the teaching of literacy, and providing more targeted support. Thank you to all parents who volunteer their time with Literacy Rotations. The learning experience that students undertake indepen-dently or under the supervision of parents aids in the devel-opment of many crucial foundational literacy skills.
Father’s Day StallA big thank you to the parents who volunteered their time to set up and sell items for the Father’s day stall. Your ef-forts in building the community atmosphere is very much appreciated. I am sure many of the fathers in the St An-drews community are enjoying their treasures as a result.
Happy Father’s Day to all the Fathers. I pray that Sunday is a great day for you and your children.
Prep DiscoAs you are receiving this note, the social event of the year is happening. Many of the A-listers and the swarm of paparazzi are expected to be in attendance at the Prep Disco. Thank you to the Prep parents who organised, what I anticipate, to be a fun night out for the children.
Student Led ConferencesIt was great to see so many parents at the Student Led Conferences last week, interacting with their children and discussing their child’s progress. Student Led Conferences are important because it helps students to: take responsibil-ity for their own learning; reflect on their work and articu-late their learning with their parents; set learning goals in conjunction with their parents; present their work to their parents and build up their self-confidence as a result of conducting a presentation of this nature. It is also a won-derful opportunity for parents to celebate the learning journey of their child.

From the Deputy Head of Junior School & PYP Coordinator
Our Year 6 students have recently commenced their PYP Ex-hibition journey. This culminating experience is undertaken each year by the Year 6 cohort as it is the final year in the Primary Years Programme (PYP) at St Andrews. The Exhibi-tion represents a significant event for a PYP school and each student is required to demonstrate their engagement with the five essential elements: knowledge, concepts, skills, attitudes and action.
The PYP Exhibition has a number of key purposes including the following:
• For students to engage in an in-depth, collaborative inquiry
• To provide students with an opportunity to demon-strate independence and responsibility for their own learning
• To provide students with an opportunity to explore multiple perspectives
• For students to synthesize and apply their learning of previous years, and to reflect on their journey through the PYP
• To provide an authentic process for assessing student understanding
• To demonstrate how students can take action as a result of their learning
• To unite the students, teachers, parents and other members of the school community in a collaborative experience that incorporates the essential elements of the PYP
• To celebrate the transition of learners from Junior School to Middle School education
(Source: Making the PYP Happen, 2009)
The Exhibition Unit this year will sit under the transdiscipli-nary theme of ‘Who We Are.’ The students will be involved in an inquiry process that enables them to identify, inves-tigate and offer solutions to real-life issues or problems whilst working collaboratively. The central idea for the inquiry is, ‘The choices made influence our well-being.’ The students have been involved in a number of learning engagements to commence the inquiry process. They have had the opportunity to listen to a number of guests speak-ers as part of the ‘tuning in’ stage. A group of Year Seven students were invited to present their insights and experi-ences of undertaking the Exhibition last year. The students are now considering potential areas for further inquiry.
Here is what some students had to say in anticipation of the journey that will take place over the next nine weeks:
Ethan Radley – “The parts of the Exhibition that I am look-ing forward to are getting into a group, finding an issue and information and presenting.”
Soham Kale – “I think overall the Exhibition is going to be a unique, interesting, awe-inspiring and extremely fun experi-ence.”
The students will be sharing their knowledge and under-standing at the Exhibition Evening which will be held on Wednesday 29 October in the Multi-Purpose Hall. Everyone is welcome to attend!“Whatever you do, do well” Ecclesiastes 9:10 NLT
Jacqueline FaulknerDeputy Head of Junior School/PYP Coordinator
Where Faith, Fact and Fiction AgreeOr to state it more specifically what do Dr. Who, the Apos-tle Paul and a student at St Andrews have in common?
Story One. FictionDr. Who (to his assistant): Am I a good man?Assistant: I don’t know.Some time later. After defeating the Darliks,Dr. Who: I sometimes get it wrong? But I do try to be good.Assistant: That is what matters.
Story Two. FactStudent: I want to be a good man, but I am not. I try but I can’t get there.Response: The want is where goodness is, we always fall short in the performance.
Story Three. FaithThe Apostle Paul: Even when I want to do right, I cannot. Instead of doing what I know is right, I do wrong. But in every part of me I discover something fighting against my mind, and it makes me a prisoner of sin that controls every-thing I do. What a miserable person I am. Who will rescue me from this body that is doomed to die? Thank God! Jesus Christ will rescue me. Romans 7.18,19.23-25.
To be a good person is a worthwhile pursuit, but if we look at history even the people we see as heroes when we learn about their lives we discover deep flaws. Even those who bear the title Saint are also awfully human. The Doctor is right, the best we can get is the want to be good. So do we just have to sit back and be content to be wannabes, strug-gling and never getting there. It is here that St Paul with his struggle is helpful. He knows a goodness that is not performance based but is gift - the gift of God in Christ. When in our quest for goodness we fail, yet again, we can pick ourselves up through the forgiveness that is ours because of Jesus and try again.
Maybe the Doctor is wrong because it is more than the desire to do good. We can know a perfect goodness that is pure unconditional gift.
A gift that empowers us to “pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and start all over again.”
Pastor Terry Unger
Parent and children Interviews are progressing well, it has been a wonderful pleasure meeting children and families of the Early Learning Centre. Each day the centre continues to expand with enrolment acceptance letters rolling in. It is fantastic seeing the days once blank being replaced with names of the children that will bring so much life and love to the building. Please continue to return completed profile sheets and don’t forget to bring in a photo of your child so that the future staff and I can start building connections with your child.
I am working through the waitlist and I will continue to be in contact with families in the coming weeks to arrange convenient appointment times and discuss the progress of the Early learning Centre.
Applications have closed for the Early Learning Centre Kindergarten teachers and we will look at the interview process in the coming weeks. Each fortnight we get a little closer.
In the meantime enjoy each day with your children and take some time to watch your children and look at the world through their eye’s, what does it look like?

WORDS Michael Grose
© 2014 Michael Grose
There’s no doubt that fathering has changed in
recent years. Gone is the distant dad of the 1960’s
and 70’s who saw his main job as keeping a roof
over his family’s head and bread on the table. An
occasional game in the backyard and dishing out
the heavy discipline that mums couldn’t deal with
was the extent of his involvement with his kids.
Many dads tell me that they want a better
relationship with their children, particularly their
sons, than they had with their own fathers. Sadly,
many men still don’t enjoy a close relationship
with their fathers, but they are determined to
change things with their own kids.
Here are seven ideas to help you form close relationships with your kids, and maximise your effectiveness as a parent and a partner:
1 Find something in common with your kidsDads need something in common with their
children. They relate better when they have a
shared interest or shared passion with their kids.
Many men relate to their kids while being active,
and teach many important lessons through
games and play. But if sport is not your bag, find
something else that you and your kids have in
common. A common interest is a great help for
fathers who live apart from their kids who are
looking to maximise the time they have with
them.
2 Spend time with your sonsA dad can do little wrong in the eyes of a young
boy. From around the age of five years a boy
thinks his dad is like superman. Ironically, he may
give his mum a hard time at this stage. Dads need
to spend as much time with their sons in these
impressionable years as possible. They just need
to be careful not to push their sons too hard or
turn every game into a lesson. That’s when boys
turn off their dads.
3 Don’t whimp out on disciplineDads are traditionally the kings of play, but they
can go missing when it comes to discipline. They
get their kids excited in a game before going to
bed, then expect their partner to settle them
down. It helps if both parents can take their share
of managing children’s behaviour.
4 Treat your daughters wellThere are strong links between close fathering
and the healthy development of girls. Dads teach
their daughters strong lessons about how they
should be treated by males. So dads need to
treat their daughters respectfully so they learn to
expect this treatment in their future relationships
with men.
5 Say good bye Superman, hello Clarke KentAdolescent boys are programmed to challenge
their fathers. It’s part of the growing up process.
Australian author John Marsden refers to
this phenomenon as the ‘old ram, young ram
syndrome’. He’s right. It’s a type of rite of passage
that plays out in many Australian homes. Verbal
jousting matches are a popular father-son game
where boys take great delight in proving their
fathers are fallible. A dad at this stage needs a
sense of humour as well as a willingness to stand
back and allow other mentors in to his son’s life.
6 Support your partnerFathers may play an integral part in the lives of
their children but they also have a profound effect
on the quality of mothering that children receive.
There is little doubt that a woman who can share
the emotional and financial burdens of child-
rearing with a supportive partner is more likely to
be a loving, affirming mother. Supportive fathering
is one of the keys to better mothering.
7 Change as your child changesKids grow up at the speed of light and change
before you know it. They’re kids one day and
teenagers the next. They can catch many fathers
unaware. The most effective dads are those who
change their parenting to suit the needs of their
kids at each stage of development, rather than
stubbornly hold to outmoded ideas of how they
think their kids should be.
Those fathers who are a little apprehensive or lack
sufficient confidence should become involved in as
many aspects of parenting as they can. The best way
to learn about parenting is by doing it. Children are
a terrific resource for fathers - men can learn about
children from children themselves. By being alert,
watchful and learning to listen to their children
fathers can learn all they need to know about
parenting.
