Personal excellence through Christ

Note from the Headmaster

Same but different

Welcome back to Term 2. I trust you all had a relaxing holiday and took the time to enjoy a break.

At the end of the first week of the holidays I cleaned out my office. Cleaning and sorting is always a cathartic experience. It was my attempt to start fresh for another term. Whilst going through some archived documents I came across an interesting document called “What do the Staff value at the College?”

This document was generated and collated by staff 15 years ago. Many of the staff who were part of the process are still here and remembered it. I shared this with staff at the beginning of Term 2 and asked them to compare the characteristics of this year’s theme ‘Character Matters’ to this previous document.

I was not surprised once we finished the comparison that the values we had from the beginning are still what we hold to today.

What was important to staff (and students) 15 years ago:

Commitment Christian support and focus Practical assistance Encouragement Community Team Assume the best Nurture and support Care for students and each other Pray Be positive

What we are working towards with staff and students:

WisdomCourage KindnessHonestySocial Responsibility Forgiveness HumilityHumourSpirituality Teamwork Gratitude

Penrith Anglican College today is the same, but different. Our values have not changed. Buildings have changed, mottos and crests renewed, staff have changed, students have graduated and uniforms updated, however the core business of Penrith Anglican College remains the same.

I encourage you to reflect on what you perceive to be different at the College and compare it to what we actually are doing, and you will see we have only improved as we encourage our students to prepare for a bright future.

As individuals we must be willing to learn new skills, achieve goals and progress in life or we become stagnant. Why shouldn’t this principle be applied to an organisation? Penrith Anglican College is a progressive co-educational place of learning, where we aim to encourage our students to strive for personal excellence through Christ in every aspect of life.

It is my personal goal this year to work on each of the characteristics of our theme and I encourage you to work alongside us as we support your children to become independent thinkers ready to take their place in an ever developing world and to live a life of purpose.

“Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18


From the Careers Advisor

Senior School

An important part of the process of choosing which Institution and what courses may be most suited to a student’s needs, in order for them to gain qualifications that enable them to pursue their Career aspirations, is for them and their parents/carers to attend Open Days, Information Nights and Career Markets so that they can gather relevant and current information, ask questions of representatives present and to gain a clearer understanding of what that institution has to offer.

I have prepared a list below of the Open Days and Information nights that are being provided by Higher Education and Tertiary Education Institutions so that students can schedule them into their diary and take advantage of the opportunity that they provide.

I have also included details of three Career Markets that students and family members can also take advantage of.

All of Year 12 will be attending the Western Sydney Careers Expo on Thursday June 22 from 10am to 12pm (subject to approval by the organisers) and we will be travelling by bus to and from the Expo on that day. If approved, it is expected that Year 12 will be absent from the College between 8.30am and 1.00pm on that day. I will be providing Year 12 with further information closer to that date, but the Expo as well as the HSC & Careers Expo in early June, does have a series of free seminars that students can also take advantage of (program details available from the College Careers Centre). Both major Career Expos are open as well on the weekend and students may choose to return with family on the Saturday or Sunday to seek further clarification or attend additional seminars that are relevant to their career aspirations. I recommend the HSC & Careers Expo to IB candidates as well as the same organisations will be present at both. It is anticipated that there will be up to 130 Exhibitors at the Trades Expo and up to 150 Exhibitors at the other Expos.

Further details of the Career Expos can be obtained via the following links:

www.hscandcareers.com.au

www.westernsydneycareerexpo.com.au

The main universities in Sydney schedule their Open Days to enable future students to access all of them, if desired. The University of Sydney, UTS and the University of Notre Dame are in reasonably close proximity to each other and therefore all have their Open Days simultaneously on Saturday August 26. They are within walking distance of each other. Macquarie University, UNSW, and Western Sydney University have different days and on different weekends.

I invite students to contact me if I can be of further assistance in relation to any of the listed Open Days and also to email me if they would like a organise a time (Monday to Wednesday) to look at career and course options that may be relevant to them, prior to their attendance at an Open Day or Career Expo. Students need to attend such events with some degree of clarification of what they are giving thought to in order to gain maximum utilisation of their attendance.

I extend my congratulations to those Year 11 and 12 students who attended the MyDays at Charles Sturt University, Bathurst and Orange in the recent holidays. I trust they found them beneficial.

I look forward to continue working with students at the College enable them to have a clearer understanding of the options

available to them and gain knowledge of the paths that will enable them to pursue their career aspirations.

Open Days and Career Markets in 2017

Senior School

I invite you to take the time to look through this list so that you are able to consider the events that are relevant to your child. Many smaller Institutions offer the opportunity of a tour of their facilities at a mutually agreeable time, so I recommend that students contact them directly via their website in order to secure a booking. I will be updating students as further information becomes available.


Primary School

Year 6 Canberra excursion 2017

Students from our school have recently undertaken an education tour of the national capital. Students were given the opportunity to participate in a variety of educational programs with a focus on Australia’s history, culture, heritage and democracy.

The Australian Government recognises the importance of all young Australians being able to visit the national capital as part of their Civics and Citizenship education. To assist families in meeting the cost of the excursion the Australian Government is contributing funding of $20 per student under the Parliament and Civics Education Rebate program towards those costs. The rebate is paid directly to the school upon completion of the excursion.

On 30 March, Year 6 went on an excursion to Canberra. The drive took about 3 ½ hours and we got there on two very comfortable coaches. All of the Year 6 students went with Mrs Munce, Mr Hall, Mr Przydacz, Mr Wright, Mr Lewis and Mrs Kennedy. We also had 2 parent helpers come along – Mrs May and Mrs Green. The reason we went to Canberra was so we could learn more about our History topic this term, “Australia as a Nation” and I believe everyone really enjoyed camp.

We arrived at Canberra around lunchtime, so we first stopped at a park to have lunch and then we went to The War Memorial. We were put into 5 day groups to walk around. Next we went to Mt Ainsley Lookout which was on a really high mountain and we could see so much from up high. After Mt Ainsley, we stopped at Parliament House where we met Emma Husar, the federal member for Lindsay which was really interesting. She talked to us about lots of things and she told us she used to be a teacher. We did a tour around Parliament House with a tour guide.

We arrived at our accommodation at 5:50pm and for dinner we had chicken wings. After that we went into the hall to play some house based games. The Ridley house captains organised the first game which was called The Waiter Game and then the Cranmer house captains led Charades. The Ryle house captains had a pipe obstacle course and the Latimer house captains led Heads and Tails. The games were so exciting with lots of house spirit.

The next day, we started off with some bacon and eggs on toast for breakfast and we made wraps for lunch to take for later. We left our accommodation and drove to The Senate Gardens next to Old Parliament House to have morning tea. We were split into two groups for the Electoral Education Office where we learnt about Parliament in the olden days and we even got to vote. We then went back to The Senate Garden to have lunch and had lots of cool, fresh air and a chance to run around. We were all really anxious and excited because our final stop was Questacon. At Questacon, we split off into the same 5 groups and went around and looked at all of the cool science things there. The highlights at Questacon were the Earthquake simulator and the 10-foot drop slide which was really scary but fun. We also stopped at the gift shop and bought some cool science objects. We then sadly drove the 3 ½ hours back to school and saw our parents and siblings again.

My favourite thing was Questacon because there was so much to do and see. I also loved The War Memorial because it helped me remember and be thankful for the soldiers who have fought and died in wars to help keep our country a special place to live. The overall experience was really interesting, fun and I think everyone had a really amazing time in Canberra.

An Egg a Day

In Term 1 Week 11 the Primary Leaders ran the An Egg A Day Fundraiser to help pre-school children in Northern Rwanda by supplying them with an egg a day to improve nutrition and chronic malnutrition. The fundraiser was so well supported by the College Community that $600 was donated which means that 100 children at a Northern Rwandan pre-school will be sponsored to receive an egg a day for a month.

The Primary Leaders made cards and for every $2 donated the students received An Egg A Day card to decorate and give to someone at Easter. The support was wonderful and the Primary Leaders would like to thank all

those students who made donations to this ‘eggsellent’ project.


Student Wellbeing

Positive Education in Term 2

We have an exciting term ahead this term is Positive Education classes!

In years 5 and 6 where we are learning to be a HERO, we will be looking at efficacy. That means we will be working on helping students to understand and know that they are capable of mastering new skills and information. Students will be working in groups to create a range of products aimed at teaching Kindy to Year 2 children about Character Strengths. It will be exciting to see what our creative and hardworking students can produce!

In Year 7, we will be working through the Resourceful Adolescent Program. We have run this program successfully at the College over the last two years. It focusses on helping students understand what happens to their body, emotions and behaviour when they are anxious, and teaches them strategies they can use to teach themselves to think more resourcefully. We cover problem solving strategies, strategies to promote calm and considered discussion and ways to calm down when stressed or angry. This program extends through Terms 2 and 3.

In Year 8 this term we will look at Positive Relationships and Grit. Students will be encouraged to think through the specifics of how they can speak and act in order to best promote positive relationships. There will be time to reflect on and be thankful for the positive relationships they are part of. Students will also be encouraged to think through how they can demonstrate grit and perseverance and the benefits of developing these qualities.

In Mentor Groups positive relationships with peers, parents, teachers, employers and people who are different to us will be discussed, with students coming up with strategies they can use to promote positive relationships. The benefits of investing in positive relationships will also be covered.

It should be an amazing term of challenging students to learn new things, expand their thinking and practice some lifechanging

skills.

College Senior School Athletics Carnival

The Senior School Athletics Carnival was held on Monday, 27 March at a new venue, Blacktown International Sportspark. We were blessed with fine weather, an excellent venue that we can’t wait to return to in 2018, and excellent House Spirit! Participation was high across all four Houses, but only one House can be declared Athletics Champion… in 2017, it was Ridley House. Latimer came in second, with Cranmer third and Ryle in fourth.

The College will take a large team of athletes to the NASSA Championship on Wednesday, 14 June at Campbelltown Athletics

Centre, where we’re all looking for a successful day.

Student Achievements

Mark Nielsen, Year 8

Writing an old-fashioned letter scored Penrith Anglican College student Mark Nielsen a meeting with United States Vice President Mike Pence.

“I was so nervous to meet him but it was a great experience that I will treasure for the rest of my life and never forget,’’ Mark said.

“I thought he was an excellent guy. He was very nice, Very down to earth and easy to approach, when I told him I wanted to be the ambassador to the United Nations he put his hand on my shoulder and said to never let go of your dreams and always keep on believing.’’

Following up from his Young Achievers nomination, Mark also visited Westmead Children’s Hospital during the holidays to present them with a cheque for money he raised from an Easter Raffle.

Mark received a letter from Mr Mark Stewart, Head of Fundraising at Westmead Children’s Hospital who informed him that the money he raised will go towards helping a young 5 year old girl called Jacinta who was born with Osteogenesis Imperfecta, a rare and incurable genetic condition also known as brittle bone disease.

Mark is always thinking of ways to help those less fortunate and we thank him for his desire to serve others.

Xander Ruggeri, Year 10 and Patrick Beach, Year 8 play for the Penrith City U17s Boys representative team and won the Grand Final on Sunday 30 April in the '2017 NSW U17s Boys State Championships’. It was a thrilling 8 innings Final, defeating Macarthur 2-1. Both boys played an outstanding game - with Patrick taking some amazing diving catches in the outfield and with both Patrick and Xander scoring the runs across the plate for their team to win. Both boys played exceptionally well all weekend at the NSW State Championships and and at only 13 and 14 yrs old hold their own playing up with the older boys.

Matt Beach in Year 11 represented Penrith Anglican College and CIS on Monday 1 May at Blacktown International Sports Park (ISP), as a NSWCIS Umpire at the '2017 NSW Allschools Girls Softball Championships’. He did a brilliant job umpiring the girls softball games at the championships and was subsequently put forward as a representative from CIS and NSW All Schools to umpire as part of the NSW team at the '2017 Pacific School Games' in Adelaide in December. An amazing achievement by Matt.

Xander, Patrick and Matt also represented Penrith Anglican College and CIS at the '2017 NSW All Schools Boys Softball Championships' on 2 May at BISP. The boys did an awesome job on the diamond. Matt Beach was selected as one of the Co-Captains of the NSW CIS Boys Softball team and led the boys brilliantly all day.

At the end of the round games at the NSW All Schools Boys Softball Championships yesterday, Matt Beach was selected to play in the Probables vs Possibles game where a Final team would then be selected from this game to play in the NSW All Schools Boys Softball team. Matt Beach pitched & played amazingly at the Championships and was selected into the '2017 NSW All Schools Boys Softball team' and will represent NSW at the 2017 Pacific School Games in Adelaide in December 2017. Congratulations to all three boys on their achievements and and a particularly awesome achievement by Matt to be the only boy from the NSWCIS Boys Softball team to be selected for the 'NSW All Schools Boys Softball team'.

Softball Champions!

Compassion at Penrith Anglican College

Shawon Mollick

Shawon is 6 years old and lives in Bangladesh with his parents and sibling. His father occasionally works as a labourer and his mum maintains the home. Due to their very low income, his family struggles to survive. His duty is to do odd jobs around their home.

Shawon’s favourite activity is to play soccer.

Shawon has been sponsored by the current Year 1 students since they were in Pre K. Without the help of our students, Shawon’s

family would be destitute. They are all very grateful for our help and the food, education and medical assistance they receive.

“I like to bring my Mission Monday money in because I like to help them have food and be healthy. I brought some of my birthday money in too.”

Christ Church @ the College

‘Be still and know that I am God.’ Psalm 46:10.

We live in an extremely interconnected world. Technology has ensured that these are exciting times of communication and opportunity - and also times that allow me to reach for my phone, instantly send a message, facetime or Skype relatives on the other side of the globe. We are able to be connected to a point that our near ancestors would have barely been able to imagine.

When you compare it to the rest of world history, even the television is only a brand new technology, let alone the internet, computers, desktops, and mobiles. All these advancements bring with them great positives, but also negatives, and as wise and discerning adults and parents we want to think through carefully and take seriously the implications that come with it.

Let me ask you… When do you rest from your mobile? That was hard for me to answer… Ahhh, I guess… never. It’s by my side all day, sits next to me at dinner, drives in the car with me, sits with me in movies and is by my side even as I sleep. Always willing and ready to interrupt, take my attention, or give me an opportunity to remove myself from the place or people I'm with.

Resting is a good thing, I’m sure you would agree. Anyone who worked seven days a week would be seen as living an extremely unhealthy work/life balance. But for some of us, we can barely point to a time in our day where we are not bombarded by information from some form of technology that takes our attention, focus, time and energy.

I’ve recently been perusing an interesting book by two developmental Psychologists. One of the key topics they discuss focusses on kids and television (or ‘screen time’), and they refer to the television as ‘Uncle Andy’. The reason they do this, is to stress the point that having the television always on in your room is similar to having a family member there, continually talking to and influencing your kids - whether it is telling them that they need new clothes, toys or snacks, or sharing with them inappropriate or stressful stories.

Now, if this was an Uncle, you’d probably gradually monitor how much time they spent with your kids, but we don’t always seem to do this with television or screens - sometimes because it is easier for it to just stay on, or because sometimes it has educational value.

Either way, it is clear that sometimes, we can have too much of a good thing. And sometimes, what our kids need most is for the screen to be off, and for there to be quiet time, and time for rest from the constant stimulation that surrounds them. Not only does this time bring greater rejuvenation, studies continually show that kids are more likely to pursue creative and imaginative endeavours, improve attention abilities, and grow in their ability to relate to others, when screens or TV’s are limited.

The hardest part of this, is for us as parents to model it. The easy option is for screens and TVs to be used as babysitters, or passive entertainers. But clearly screens do not bring ‘rest’ with them. For real rest, we have to turn them off.

We know, through the Gospel accounts, that Jesus rested and on numerous occasions went to ‘quiet’ places to pray and talk to

his Heavenly Father. He modelled to us how important rest is - as well as taking time to talk to God.

We need to make sure that we disconnect or turn the screens ‘off’ every now and then so that we can focus on what is really important - to give our minds, bodies, and souls, a chance to gain the benefits of rest, and encourage those under our care to regularly do the same.
