8th April 2016

From the Principal

Term 1 of our Academic Year comes to a close. It has been a wonderful

term for our students who have participated in the academic, service,

sporting and cultural programs with great enthusiasm and zest. A highlight

of the term was our 30th Birthday Plunge. The ripple effect of this amazing

event is still being talked about and shared. It certainly was an event for

everyone. Thank you and well done to all in our community for a positive

term.

Year 12 Commemorative 30th Anniversary Tie

As part of our 30 Year celebrations all Year 12 students will be

gifted a 30th Anniversary tie to be worn as part of their winter

uniform. These ties were designed by our current Year 12

students last year with the support of Mr McCoy. This tradition

will continue with each Year 12 group designing their Year 12 tie

each year. This year’s special 30th Anniversary edition is

designed to be worn with both the boy’s and girl’s uniform.

Para Swim Carnival – Sport in the Right Spirit

It was an honour to be the host school for the Para Swim

Carnival this week. Our students and staff are to be

congratulated for their commitment and enthusiasm at the

carnival.

Singapore Soccer Tour – Kick Off

We wish our students and staff a safe and enjoyable Soccer tour in

Singapore over the holiday period. A wonderful program is in place for our

students. Thank you to Mr Marius Ndiaye, Ms Krystal Skelin and Ms Sarah

Fogliani for bringing this tour to reality for our students.

Weekly Mass - Invitation

A warm invitation is extended to parents, staff, students and friends who

would like to attend our weekly College mass in the Good Shepherd

Chapel. Mass is held on Wednesday mornings and starts at 8.00am and

finishes promptly at 8.30am. Fr Joe and Fr Renald share this mass and it is

certainly a nice way to start the day and take time out for 30 minutes.

Everyone is welcome.

Thank You Ms Leck – College Leadership

Thank you to Ms Fiona Leck for undertaking the role of Deputy Principal whilst Mr Watson has been on

leave. Ms Leck is an outstanding educator and as always her professionalism, diligence and outstanding

leadership is valued. Ms Leck will continue her important role of Director of Academic Standards as a

Senior Executive role for the remainder of the year. In Term 2 we welcome Mr Watson and Ms Stibi back

from their well-earned long service leave.

Counselling Services – A Proactive Model

In Term 2 we welcome our two new counselor appointments, Mrs Irene O’Neil and Ms Marianna Vlahov.

They will join our staff to enhance our pastoral and socio-emotional support for our children. We are

blessed to have two experienced people joining our staff. Over the course of the year we will work to

develop a team approach to our counseling services.

aCROSS the World Project - Update

Our aCROSS the world project took an exciting leap this week with the first of the

blanks going into the kiln. Dylan Walker proudly closed the lid to begin the first stage

of production of the 2016 special crosses to be placed in one Catholic/Christian

school in every country of the world. Many students and staff are now involved in

the research and production process. The aim is to have all schools and countries

identified and contacted in Term 2 with delivery occurring in Terms 3 and 4.

“Beyond 30” – Strategic Directions

Setting our path and vision for the next three years is very important. The College’s strategic plan, called

‘Beyond 30’, can be found on the College website for interested parents and friends. At our recent

Professional Learning day all teachers discussed ‘Beyond 30’ and continued the process of refining our

strategies to achieve the goals set. ‘Beyond 30’ aims to enhance the educational experience of our

children. It has a clear intent to improve academic performance at a personal level, engage our community

and provide improved transition and preparation of students from Year 9 into the senior years of schooling.

Parent Teacher Interviews – Tuesday 26 April 2016

These are important conversations highlighted by the fact we devote a day to them. It provides a time to

connect with your child’s teachers.

Class of 2023

Interviews for Year 7, 2018 have now started. Parents of siblings are reminded that siblings still need to

be enrolled. Sometimes this is forgotten. To avoid disappointment of not having a place in Year 7, 2018

please ensure you have put an application form in for your siblings. The interview process is always

enjoyable and it is an honor to meet prospective students and parents.

Have a safe and happy holiday. We return to school on Tuesday 26 April with our first round of parent

teacher interviews. Students return to school Wednesday 27 April.

For your children

Parent-Teacher interviews will be conducted from 1.00pm – 7.00pm, with interviews of 10 minutes

duration on Tuesday April 26. Please note that this is a pupil free day. Parental presence in the

College enhances student learning and promotes understanding between home and school, and as such

students are also encouraged to attend the interviews.

The College welcomes all parental contact, however, we do request that where one teacher has the

same student for multiple subjects that parents book only one time slot. In addition, it is not always

necessary for parents to meet with all of their child’s teachers. It is up to parent judgement as to which

teachers they meet, though the College believes it is imperative that appointments are made if a teacher

has specifically requested an interview. Teachers who have had recent contact with parents may have

chosen not to request an interview. Parents may however, still choose to make an appointment with

these teachers.

Bookings are made through the internet-based booking system called Parent Teacher On-Line (PTO),

saving time for parents, staff and students. Using this system on any internet-connected computer, you

will be able to book the interview times that best suit you. If you do not have access to a computer

please do not hesitate to contact the College on 9307 2000. To access the system click on this link

(https://bookings.parentteacheronline.com.au?school=y86ka) or the PTO icon found on the Welcome

page in SEQTA Engage. The system opens for bookings on Wednesday 6th April and will close at 5pm

on Monday 25th April.

Once on the PTO site, please click on Obtain PIN/Password in the “Need Help?” box on the right of the

screen. You will then be asked to enter your email address in the box to the left of the screen. This

address must match the one currently held by the College. An email will be sent with a direct link

to allow you to book interview times. (These instructions with screenshots/graphics are available on

SEQTA Engage under Documents/Reports). Full instructions are provided to you after log in.

Students and parents are reminded of the change to winter uniform for all students from the first day of

Term 2. The College blazer is a compulsory item that must be worn to school in the morning until the

end of PCG and home from school at the end of the day. Dresses that require alteration must be ready

for the first day of term to sit neatly at the top of the knee.

On Fridays during winter terms, i.e. Terms 2 and 3, students are required to wear the following.

Years 7 – 11: Full College tracksuit with House shirt. The tracksuit jacket may be removed during the

day but must be worn to school, during PCG, then on the way home.

Year 12: House shirt with school shorts and leavers jacket. If students wish to dress warmer then they

have the choice of either the College tracksuit or school winter uniform.

YEAR 7 SCIENCE CLUB NIGHT

On Tuesday 22nd March nearly 50 students of the Year 7 Science Club attended our first official Science

Club night this year. Students did a range of activities including a number of chemical reactions in the

dark such as the hydrogen pop test and our famous

glow in the dark toothpaste. Students also had the

chance to sit around the campfire in the indigenous

garden and listen to Mr Devlin’s talk on aboriginal stories

of the heavens. Other activities included telescope

viewing with Claire Dunne in Year 11 and Mrs Owen

“Get a Shock” show with the Van Der Graaf Generator.

Thanks to all the staff who supported the evening

including Mrs Jovanoski, Miss Skelin, Mrs Jones, Mr Van

Der Kwast, Mrs Owen, Mr Devlin, Mrs Harrison and Mrs

Georgiu. A special thanks to all our wonderful Year 11

students who also came along and supported us on the

night with many of the activities.

SPORTS NOTICES

CAS Sport Well done to all Students, Staff and Officials on another fantastic season of Term 1 CAS Sport for

able to convert this to a Premiership Pennant.

Congratulations to the Following teams:

Senior Girls Basketball Undefeated Premiers

Senior Girls Volleyball Runners Up

Senior Boys Volleyball Runners Up

Year 9 Boys Basketball Runners Up

Year 8 Boys Basketball Undefeated Premiers

Year 8/9 Boys Cricket Undefeated Premiers

Year 8/9 Boys Tennis Runners Up

Year 8/9 Girls Tennis Undefeated Premiers

Students from all team will receive their certificates as well as premiership pennants next term. We will

also await the official results to see if we have been able to successfully secure the Summer CAS

Champion School Award again.

All students will receive their certificates as well as premiership pennants next term. We will also await

the official results to see if we have been able to successfully secure the Summer CAS Champion

School Award again.

As the summer season closes our focus shifts to the winter season in Term 2. Information such as

fixtures and venues will make its way onto the College SPORTAL Page over the Term 1 break. Trials for

these teams will take place on Tuesday (Senior Teams), Wednesday (Junior Basketball, Netball &

Soccer) and Thursday (Junior AFL). A link has already been sent to all students via direct message

allowing them to sign up for the various teams available. Students who are still wishing to sign up can

access the website via the following link Winter CAS Sign Ups.

Places are filling up fast meaning positions in teams will be quite tight. There is still plenty of space in the

Year 7 Boys Soccer team, Year 7 Girls Netball teams and the Senior Girls Soccer team so students who

are interested in giving CAS a go in these sports are encouraged to sign up ready for trials next term.

Our coaches and I are looking forward to another successful season.

ACC Swimming

It seems a while ago now, but congratulations to the 105 students who represented the College in the

ACC Swimming Carnival in Week 8. Although many may look at our results and deem it an unsuccessful

venture, this couldn’t be further from the truth. We have witnessed a definite shift in attitude and culture

towards the swimming season and although it may not have transpired into results this year if we (staff,

coaches, students and indeed parents) can continue to approach it as we did this year the results will

start to follow. Final points results were as follows:

Team Male Score Female Score Total

St Stephens Duncraig 548 648 1196

Newman 645 466 1111

Bunbury 507 568 1075

Mandurah CC 496 572 1068

Chisholm 631 421 1052

Frederick Irwin 450 508 958

Prendiville 416 518 934

Kennedy 449 440 889

We were led by some excellent individuals on the day who produced some outstanding performances.

U14 Girls Champion Alyssa Burgess

U17 Girls Champion Aimee Lea

U17 Boys 3rd Place Dylan Lotti

Furthermore, the following students were named in the ACC All Star Team. Selection in this team

signifies that an individual was the best performing student in a given event from all 8 ACC swimming

carnivals.

Alyssa Burgess U14 Girls 50m Fly DIV I

50m Ba/S DIV I

Jnr Girls Medley- Fly

Makayla Ince U14 Girls 50m F/S Div I

4x50m F/S Relay

Jnr Girls Medley- F/S

Jessica Barnes U17 Girls 50m F/S Div I

4x50m F/S Relay

Jnr Girls Medley- F/S

Aimee Lea U17 Girls 50m Br/S DIV II

50m Ba/S DIV II

Alyssa Burgess, Makayla Ince, Chelsea Lynn and Darcey Brooks were members of the U14 girls 4x50m

Relay that achieved All Star Status. Further to this, the girls also broke the ACC record in their race as

the quickest team from all carnivals. Finally, Alyssa Burgess also broke the ACC record in her 50m

butterfly event.

100K Club

Now that swimming has finished our attention turns to Cross Country. It was great to have some

students down to the first three sessions on 100K Club for 2016 during Week 10. Sessions will

commence again on the first day back at school in Term 2 (Wednesday 27th April). 100K Club is open to

all students and sessions can be/are tailored to individual fitness levels if necessary. Besides the

obvious fitness benefits it does provide a surprisingly good social environment for students to interact

with their peers and assist in the development of their mental strength/resilience. The hardest part is

getting up in the morning to be at school by 7am. Students are able to set themselves personal

challenges and goals and work towards them to hopefully become a member of the 100K Club. If

students are interested and have not yet picked up a permission slip from me in the PE office please

send me a direct message and I can email one through to you over the holiday break that can be

returned next term.

Interhouse X Country

Our second Interhouse sporting event and arguably our second largest based on participation levels will

take place on the first Friday of Term 2 (29th April). The race will commence at 4:15 on the school oval

that will take students through a 4km course around the school block. Given the level of participation at

the Swimming Carnival the challenge has been set to have 600 students running in the race. Students

can choose to run competitively or take it at a gentler pace if they prefer as everyone who starts and

finishes will earn points towards the Interhouse Sports Trophy. Following the race all students will be

able to get themselves a free sausage sizzle and drink. Parents are encouraged to attend to spectate

and are able to take their son/daughter once they have completed the course. Nominations are not

required and students simply have to show up after school ready to participate.

ANDY WRIGHT INCURSION

On Friday 11th March, the Year 7 cohort was lucky enough to be

educated in the art of storytelling by renowned storyteller, Andy

Wright. Andy travels the world delivering comedic, suspenseful and

exciting stories, to demonstrate to his listeners that all you need for

an engaging story is a voice and body language. He certainly

reminded us that it is a very human need to connect through story.

The students responded with zeal to Andy's enthusiastic style, as he

immersed himself in the world of Lord Fox. We were delighted to see the students participating so well; I

can still picture the aisle row sitting entranced, hugging their knees and peeping through their fingers.

On behalf of our Year 7 cohort, Lucy Prior, reviewed the event:

‘Interesting Incursion’

I thought that the incursion on Friday with Andy Wright was enjoyable. He made it enthusiastic and

everyone was very interested in what he was saying. The story was a romance and horror story. He

made it scary by shouting and making me feel scared - my friends and I were jumping out of our seats. I

loved it how he pretended to be two people on the stage. Everyone was focused on every word he was

saying.

Lucy Prior, Year 7

BACK TO THE FUTURE

My, how we have progressed. From the time this photo was taken over 30 years ago there

have been many photos, slides, films, videos and memorabilia sitting in cupboards, in old

tea chests or even currently being worn still in existence. I’m putting a call out for any token

of the colourful past of our College. If it remains something close to you and you would

never part with then just loan it to us for short period of time. We’d love to hear from you in

any case.

Our plan is to establish a special Back to the Future Day later in the year where everything we collect will

be displayed. New videos and shots will be taken

and we will have a New Age audio visual show to

SHOWCASE our past. Tours conducted by original

students will also be a feature.

For the moment however, if you have or know

someone who has memorabilia then we are keen

to acquire it or loan it. I’d love to hear from you.

We just want to say a HUGE thank you to the P and F Easter Raffle coordinators Annica

Odina and Louise Richards. These two fantastic women did the entire Easter Raffle in the

CHAOS of Plunge week on their own with support from some angel volunteers who assisted

with wrapping and drawing the prizes. This event just seemed to happen seamlessly

however there was much planning and coordinating behind the scenes and the annual event still

occurred with its usual flare. Thank you so much for your enthusiasm, ongoing support and commitment

to the P and F. Thank you to all the parents, students and Staff who donated Easter Eggs and who

bought raffle tickets.

Yours in chocolate
