24 July 2017
Principal’s Reflection
Last week, on behalf of the Indigenous Education Unit, Rockhampton, Coral Way and Phillipa Johnson presented Shalom with a book titled “Our Mob, Our Story” to commemorate NAIDOC 2017. The book features the work of 66 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Christian artists, well-known and unknown, from communities, towns and cities across Australia.
There are 115 paintings, beautiful artworks and these are accompanied by information about the artist followed by a personal insight or story by the artist. The artworks are inspired by Bible verses and stories.
One painting that caught my eye when looking through the book was the painting titled Punu (Trees) by the artist, Hector Tjupuru Burton. He has based the painting on Psalm 1:3;
That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields fruit in seasons; whose leaf does not wither – whatever they do prospers.
It is a very “complex painting which was part of the Punus-Nguru (From the Trees) exhibition by Amata artists.”
Hector tells of growing up and attending church, being given a book to read and having to memorise it. He tells of learning many hymns and being part of the choir. Catechism had to be learnt “off by heart” before being baptised. “I kept missing words so it took me quite a while to learn, but I just kept on,” he is quoted as saying.
His story resonated as it was so familiar – there are some of us who were educated in Catholic schools, many, many years ago, who would remember being taught the catechism, having exams and having to memorise prayers!
It is truly worth taking time to look through this book and note the amazing pieces of work; it will be in our library, probably not for borrowing though.
At our last College assembly, 14 July, we celebrated NAIDOC Week. Eight Indigenous students led us in prayer: Aaliyah Watson, Lekesha Johnson, Sophie Maughan, Casey Wigg, Grace Black, Mykaela Cory, Michael Bundesen and Grace Whaleboat.
I would like to take this opportunity to commend these students and I would like to particularly acknowledge the two Year 7 students Aaliyah Watson and Lekesha Johnson – they read their parts beautifully in front of 1300 students! Well done.
Catholic Education Week
Catholic Education Week commenced this week. The theme endorsed by the Commission for this year's celebrations will be:
Catholic Education Week 2017
Sharing the Journey
The idea of journey as a central theme has been drawn from a number of quotes from Pope Francis as well as a number of biblical references. Pope Francis has said:
Today, we need a Church capable of walking at people’s side, of doing more than simply listening to them; a Church which accompanies them on their journey.
The whole journey of life is a journey of preparation…to see, to feel, to understand the beauty of what lies ahead, of the homeland towards which we walk.
What is important is the whole journey by which we arrive at the mission the Lord entrusts to us.
Visit to Bundaberg by His Excellency General, the Honourable Sir Peter Cosgrove and Lady Cosgrove
The Mayor, Mr Jack Dempsey, invited Principals and two student leaders per school, amongst many other invited guests, to a Mayoral Reception last Thursday afternoon at Bert Hinkler House, Botanic Gardens. With 18 leaders it was a little hard to choose, although some had other commitments, but amongst themselves they decided that Eden Stallard and Callum Reid should be the ones to attend with me as both boys are heading into the defence forces after the completion of school. They had worked out a couple of questions that they wanted to ask him and were given the opportunity to speak to him as Sir Peter Cosgrove moved around and spoke to all guests. One of the questions they asked was what would be the top three qualities in a leader to which he answered; Integrity, Compassion and Humility. (This I shared with the Year 11 students when I met with them on Friday in their Personal Development Lesson with me).
I know that both Eden and Callum were thrilled to be able to attend and it was a wonderful opportunity for them given their career choices.
Date Change: FORMAL 2018
The Year 11s were informed that the Formal for next year will be held on Saturday 2 June.
Friday 1 June 2018, will not be a study day for Year 12s; they will be expected to be at school.

Student Welfare and Information
Absences
Last week I had written in my article that if your child will be absent for any reason, we require communication explaining this by 10 am on the given day. This time should have said 9am.
The best ways to communicate absences is by phoning our Absentee line on 4155 8181 any time before 9am on the day of absence, leaving a message.
For periods of extended absence due to known valid reasons, please contact your child’s House Coordinator at earliest convenience.
Changes to Circumstances
If you have had any changes to your family circumstances, or something of a significant nature has occurred, please give your child’s Pastoral Care Teacher and/or House Coordinator a phone call or send an email. It is for peace of mind for both the College and yourselves that knowing if something has changed for your child over the holidays then help can be offered in managing the return to school routine. Contact emails for House Coordinators can be found below.

Curriculum Notes
Year 12 OP Range Estimates
OP range estimates will be distributed to all OP-eligible Year 12 students at the end of this week. If you have any queries regarding your child’s OP range estimate or the processes involved, please contact me or Mr Maher.
Senior Subject Selection Information – Year 11 2018
Continuing with the Year 10 Personal Futures Education Program, the Senior Subject Selection Information Evening is scheduled for tomorrow (25 July 2017). The evening will commence at 7:00pm in the Theatre and will be very important for all parents of students, and students, entering Year 11 in 2018.
The Senior Subject Selection Guide – 2018 is published electronically and all students have been instructed to download this to their devices and share it with parents. Parents can also download the Guide via the College Intranet under the ‘Year 10 Personal Futures Education Resources’ tab; a wealth of additional information can also be accessed from this location. Parents who do not have access to the internet and/or who would like a printed copy of the guide may request same from the College office.
Please also note that senior subject selections are made online. Students will be provided with the necessary login details and selections for Year 11 2018 can be made and updated at any time from Tuesday 25 July, but must be finalised by Friday 1 September following the completion of Senior Education and Training (SET) Plan interviews. All Year 10 students will participate in a SET Plan interview that parents are welcome to attend, during the school day. SET Plan interviews will commence on Monday 7 August; students will be advised of interview times in the coming weeks.
Year 10 Students Accessing Learner Accounts
All Year 10s have been advised of how to access their Learner Accounts. It is important that all senior students access their learner accounts. Learner Accounts are accessed through the QCAA’s Student Connect portal. A link to this portal is also available on the dashboard of the College Intranet. There are instructions for logging into their Learner Account on the landing page of the portal, but students will need to know their LUI number. Year 10 students were given their LUI on a special card during PC last week. Their initial password is the first four digits of their birthday, e.g. the password for a student whose birthday is on 6 January would be 0601. After the initial login students will be prompted to create a new password.
https://studentconnect.qcaa.qld.edu.au/
If students have any difficulty with logging in via the Student Connect portal, they are welcome to contact the Shalom IT HelpDesk or me for assistance. All students can also obtain their LUI number from their teachers, House Coordinator or the College office.

ROSA Awards
ROSA (Recognition of Student Application) Awards are presented to students each term. This award program recognises student application to their studies. Students from Years 7, 8 and 9 are nominated by their classroom teachers and then certificates are presented to students.
We value the importance of acknowledging students who are motivated, show perseverance and work diligently to reach their potential. The ‘goal posts’ for all our students are different, however all students are capable of achieving their own success targets.

Pre-Eisteddfod concert
Don’t forget the concert for all Junior/Intermediate groups this Wednesday starting at 5:00pm. Students not going home prior to concert are now asked to bring their own afternoon tea.
Bundaberg Groups Eisteddfod (1-3 August)
An information letter was emailed last week regarding travel arrangements and times each of our groups will be performing at the Moncrieff Theatre. Admission is a gold coin donation and I’m sure the students would love to see as many parents and friends as possible come to see them play. If you didn’t receive the email, please contact me.
Queensland Catholic Schools Music Festival (QCSMF)
An information letter including bus and accommodation lists will be emailed in Week 4. Thank you to the majority of families who returned the required travel and accommodation information, however a number of families were very slow returning this vital information resulting in a delay in some final arrangements and hence the lateness of the next information letter.
The Pre Catholic Schools Festival concert for all senior groups will be held Wednesday 9 August in the Theatre starting at 7:00pm. Come and hear these groups at their best, one week out from performing at the festival where thousands of students from Catholic Schools compete over the weekend.

2017 Premier’s Reading Challenge
There’s a month until the Premier’s Reading Challenge concludes on 25 August. It’s been wonderful to see so many of our students borrowing from the library since school has started again in Term 3. Remember, 15 books is the goal to receive an Achievement Award in the challenge! We have plenty of new books to choose from in the Shalom Library, such as the Wings of Fire series by Tui T. Sutherland, the latest Diary of a Wimpy Kid books the most recent in the Skulduggery Pleasant series and much more. If you’re not sure what to read next make sure you pop into the Library and ask for some help in finding something you will like. Some wise words about reading from everybody’s favourite Young Adult author, John Green:

All Schools Oztag Carnival
For the first time Shalom was able to enter two Oztag teams into the All Schools Carnival on the weekend of 14-16 July, held at the Sunshine Coast Stadium. This was a massive weekend of Oztag games with just over 150 teams competing in the various year levels, with one team coming from Palm Island.
A very enthusiastic Year 8 Mixed team did well making it in the top eight for their division even though the team was up against some very competitive all boys teams. This was a great achievement for this mixed team to ‘gel’ together and improve over the three day carnival while having a ‘never give up’ attitude.
The Year 10 team began a bit relaxed in their first game ending with a draw, but certainly got it together for the second game defeating Burpengary SHS 14-2. A closely contended game against The Cathedral College, Rockhampton (3-2) allowed the team to progress into the next with more confidence as players worked really well together. They notched up another win against St Brendan’s, Yeppoon to put the team into the semi-final against a very well drilled Marymount team, where they went down by one point.
A special thanks for all players from both teams for the manner in which they conducted themselves over the three days, the sportsmanship they displayed on and off the field is to be commended. Also, a special thanks to Christie Palmer (Development officer/coordinator for Oztag Bundaberg), Erin Mitchell (parent) for their expertise and availability to coach the teams each Monday throughout Term 2. Their dedication to the teams and coaching skills allowed the teams to learn more about the game and be very competitive throughout the carnival.
Thanks to Mr Gills for coming along and assisting the teams and Mr McMahon for supporting and allowing the teams to participate in the All Schools carnival.

- A reminder that all students need to pay $2.50 to their coach for the season of netball.
- If players are unable to play for a week it is their responsibility to inform their coach so that replacement players can be organised. It was disappointing to see a number of Shalom teams short of players this week due to students not informing their coaches that they were unable to play.
- Any girls who are able to umpire please inform Mrs Somerfield and she will allocate you a game to umpire.

Rugby League
Shalom made an almost perfect start to the 2017 Broncos Challenge, winning four of our five first round games last Wednesday.
Our Open team was missing many of their regular players but each player who took to the field played very well in a 20-0 loss to Bundaberg High. Our 15 Years team defeated Gin Gin 62-0 with our 14 Years side outgunning North 56-0 and our two 13 Years teams Black and Red accounting for Kepnock 32-8 and North 48-4 respectively. In the Open category, Lachlan Dullaway was very good, as was Samuel Tobin and William Stewart. While forwards Tomasi Tikonilia, Daniel O’Driscoll and Michael Bundesen had to play lots of minutes in the middle, as did Brentin Reinhardt, while it was also the first games for Reece Banks and Jack Baker. Harrison Bull notched a hat-trick of tries for our 15 Years side, while Corey Picaro and Will Hema bagged doubles. Hard running centre Brynn Harrap also racked up three tries in a strong team performance in 14 Years. In the 13 Years division, Coen Searl cut loose with four tries for Red, while Luke Wyatt and Lachlan Stevenson picked up two four-pointers each, but Riley Jones, who scored one try and kicked four conversions, was Players Player and Man of the Match, and for Black, Lane Crossley-Price turned it on with three stunning long-range tries.
Open: Bundaberg High 20 d Shalom 0.
15 Years: Shalom 62 (Tries; Harrison Bull 3, Corey Picaro 2, Will Hema 2, Riley Johnson, Jake Bonus, Bradley Moore, Benjamin Milton, Darcy Clarke. Goals; Corey Picaro 3, Will Hema, Riley Johnson, Corban Church, Darcy Clarke) d Gin Gin 0.
14 Years: Shalom 56 (Tries; Brynn Harrap 3, Caileb Dimes, Bradley Clarke, Ryan Mant, Harry Packwood, Liam Doyle, Alexander Druce, Russell Taylor. Goals; Russell Taylor 4, Bradley Clarke 3, Kynan Hard) d North 0.

Sports Information will be placed on the notice board in the Undercover area. When students need to collect forms and other details from me, I am in the Sports Office located at the back of the Loyola Centre opening onto the Undercover eating area.
