168¿ª½±¹ÙÍø

As we approach Term 4, we are gearing up for our 2020 celebration of 168¿ª½±¹ÙÍø’s educating girls for 125 years. You will note we have now added to our eNews information about our 125^-year events. As part of the celebrations, the school has launched an Art Competition for members of the community (parents, grandparents, staff, students, past students). For those of you who are artists, I would encourage you to enter the ‘Something 168¿ª½±¹ÙÍø’s’ Art competition. Details may be found in this newsletter within that new section.

Parents of a tween (somewhere between 10-13 years of age, but could be ages 8-14) might be interested in the following information as it can explain a lot of behaviours. As the prefrontal cortex of tweens develops, they’re malleable, impulsive and impressionable. They’re capable of reasoning intellectually, interpreting emotions and taking a stand, but they lack perspective or life experience. Sorting out social drama can consume large chunks of their time, and they tend to experience emotions in polarities. Any mishap can register as a catastrophe, and they have little understanding that negative feelings are temporary. Tweens are trying to figure out what coping skills work for them and where their strengths and interests align. They’re hyper-aware of an invisible audience judging their every move and picking up on their shortcomings and limits. It’s a time of insecurity, hormonal changes and contradictions. The only other time a child experiences so much development is between birth and age two!

Term’s notice of withdrawal

This is just another reminder to parents that if your child is not returning to 168¿ª½±¹ÙÍø’s in 2020, we require one full school term’s written notice (or one school term’s fees in lieu of notice) when withdrawing a student from the school. Currently, we are working on the 2020 timetable and staffing, and it is important that we have accurate enrolment numbers. In some year levels, we have waiting lists and we need to be able to contact those on the list who are hoping to secure a place at the school. To meet the requirement of a term’s notice, advice can be received up to the last Friday of the September school holidays. Advice may be emailed directly to me or to our admissions team via registrar@stmargarets.qld.edu.au.

We have a number of camps and tours happening over the holidays, including three international tours. A group of 29 Year 5 and 6 students will be travelling to Japan and visiting our sister school in Kobe, Konan Elementary School. They will also be travelling around Japan, from Tokyo to Hiroshima (and lots of places in between). We also have students travelling to China. These language students will be no doubt relishing the chance to use their Mandarin skills. Our French tour also sees a group of our French language students in Years 10-12 joining Churchie on a tour of France. We wish all our travellers a safe journey and lots of opportunities to experience parts of the culture of the countries they are visiting.

The annual Sony Children’s Holiday Camp is on again this year, and a number of girls in Year 11 have been preparing for this. Run in conjunction with Churchie, the weekend-long camp brings together students from 168¿ª½±¹ÙÍø’s and Churchie along with doctors and nurses from across Brisbane to partake in activities with guests with disabilities and special needs in order to give their families respite. It is a life-changing camp for our students and we wish them well.

Good luck also to the rowers attending the State Rowing Championships at Wyaralong Dam this coming weekend. There are many schools competing in this event, and we wish all the rowers and supporters who are going with them best wishes for a safe and successful regatta.

To all families, I wish you a wonderful holiday, and I look forward to welcoming our students back again for Term 4.

Genesis 2: 2-3

“And on the seventh day, God finished the work that God had done, and God rested on the seventh day from all the work that God had done. So, God blessed the seventh day and made it holy.”

In some ways, this models to all that it is essential to stand back from our work, take a good look at what we have achieved and rest. As one person put it, “to rest is not an optional extra, but rather an essential part of life.” God blessed the seventh day, and through that blessing, it becomes a holy day, the sabbath day. Through the busyness of life, the seventh day, the Sabbath day, Sunday, the day of rest, is slowly disappearing. Again, this is not to say it is bad, but instead, we need to be more intentional in how we find time for rest and how we model that to our children. It could be as simple as sharing a picnic, a few days away, finding time at home to rest. Life moves by so fast, treasure those special times to relax as a family.

As we move into the holidays may you find time for rest, re-creation and holy days. May you find time for those things that quench the dry places in your lives. Water the garden, go for a walk, listen to music, exercise, have a picnic together, or make time for sport, whatever brings joy.

The Reverend Susan Crothers-Robertson

What is not generally found when researching community is that it is a psychological need. In context with our school, community is creating a sense of belonging for our students. We all need to feel emotionally and physically safe, we need to have supportive relationships and we need to feel that we are connected. The feeling of togetherness and cooperation - all these help in establishing a healthy atmosphere filled with unity, harmony and friendship. We also need to ensure our students feel that they are capable and able to learn. These fundamental needs shape motivation and have major implications for our students’ learning and development.

When a school meets students' psychological needs, students become increasingly committed to the school's goals, ethos and values. Our students are more likely to be academically motivated, to act ethically and selflessly, to develop social and emotional competencies. By having the students committed to maintaining a sense of community, schools almost intuitively begin to provide opportunities for students to develop habits and learn skills that will benefit them throughout their lives.

In Boarding, community is our beating heart as it is also about growing with others. Actively cultivating respectful, supportive relationships between students, teachers and parents. 168¿ª½±¹ÙÍø’s spends a lot of time and energy on building and maintaining our community. Our term “Home away from Home” is often said as it is the pillar of what we strive to be for our students and more. To enable students from different backgrounds to bring their personal thoughts, feelings and experiences into the classroom or Boarding House, sharing stories and family or cultural traditions. Our community is diverse, growing and inviting. We have families from Goondiwindi, Papua New Guinea and Hong Kong to name just a few, the 168¿ª½±¹ÙÍø’s community is global!

We are very fortunate to say we are at the forefront of today’s innovative education; empowering tomorrow's leaders today. And with that, our mission is to develop informed, active, resilient and compassionate citizens within our 168¿ª½±¹ÙÍø’s community.

In Term 4 there are a few events coming up:

Year 12 2020 Parent Information night

The current Year 11s begin their Unit 3 study next term, so there will be an Information Evening on Monday 21 October, from 6:30-7:30pm to take a closer look at Units 3 and 4 course of study, including our preparation for External Assessment. Please refer to the letter emailed to all Year 11 parents for more details.

Year 12 Term 4

As the Year 12s move into their last term of Year 12, I will recall one little piece of information I included in a letter you received in February, “… understand that every piece of assessment in Year 12 matters, including the very final piece of assessment in Term 4. I have heard students say that Term 4, Year 12 ‘does not count’…” but this is incorrect and can actually make a significant difference to the end result.

Year 10 Subject Selection

This week, the Year 10 students received confirmation of their subject selection for Year 11 2020. At this stage of the process there are always some second thoughts, so you are most welcome to call or make an appointment with Rosie Parisi: RParisi@stmargarets.qld.edu.au to discuss your selection.

It was against this growing call for wider recognition and development of skills beyond academic assessment that the 168¿ª½±¹ÙÍø’s Plus (StM+) program will commence a trial with Year 11s in Term 4 2019.

Broadly, the purpose of StM+ is to identify and document the essential skills students develop outside of the classroom through participating in extra-curricular activities.

The intention of StM+ is to provide a summary of activities that maps the skills they have learnt outside/alongside the academic program. It will provide each student with a Spider Graph of the skills they have developed and areas that need to be developed. An online platform draws together the activities and the associated skills to create the overview, which is drawn predominately from the school’s extra-curricular and philanthropic programs. Students can also add activities they have completed as individuals.

The resulting schedule outlines and maps students against six skills:

• Critical and creative thinking
• Community Engagement
• Inclusion and awareness of diversity
• Communication
• Collaboration and teamwork
• Initiative

By focusing on and developing these skills gained through activities outside the classroom, it is planned that StM+ will provide a future focused program that will benefit students as they enter tertiary study or workforce. Rather than just having on their resume they held a leadership position in school or were involved in philanthropy, the skills they gained through this involvement are demonstrable and comprehensively mapped and can be presented to their desired university or employer.

It is so seldom that we can take a while to enjoy a moment in this bustling world, and yet it is so important that we do. All too often we have the TV blaring in the background, our children reach for the radio/CD/IPad the minute they climb into the car and of course the incessant bleeps, pings, rings and chirps that emanate from our phones and computers reminding us that we are on call 24/7. Is it any wonder that they, and we, are frazzled at the end of the day – only to have sleep interrupted by vibrations and buzzes from our ‘silenced’ technology? We seem to constantly feel the need to be in touch, to be stimulated and engaged mentally.

It would be wonderful if during the holidays our daughters could take 5 minutes every day to immerse themselves in silence – no music, no phone, no computer. Understandably this may be uncomfortable for them and would require a certain amount of willpower. Susan Leigh of Lifestyle Therapy understands that this can be difficult, she says ‘Silence requires us to become more confident, confident in our ability to be quiet and still, to find an inner peace that can enable us to sit and enjoy the silence. Being confident and at one with ourselves means that we can enjoy being on our own or in company and not need to fidget and be constantly active or occupied. It is enough to just be there, in a relaxed, comfortable state of mind’. For those who cannot bear the thought of doing nothing for a few minutes they could fill this time with silent prayer, learn to meditate or read a passage that requires some contemplation.

Embracing silence and being comfortable with one’s own company can be a wonderful way to reduce stress at the same time as being very therapeutic. The Dalai Lama states, ‘Sometimes silence is the best answer’.

Wishing you a blessed and peaceful holiday.

Last week was the final one for the term and it was our holistic education in action! The academic growth of our early years students was certainly on display when they shared their writing. Year 1 presented VCOP. It was impressive to hear the vocabulary and openings they use in their sentences. Year 2 also shared their writing using the strategy “show not tell”. Ask your child about it.

On the social and emotional side, through the dramatisation of a story, Year 3 shared a valuable lesson.

“Life might have its failures, but the only true failure can come if you quit.”

Rosie Revere

Leadership in Year 6 is an important component of their social and emotional growth. Year 6 girls display their leadership not just through their positions but also within Cornerstone. Cornerstone is an enquiry project undertaken every year. This year, the girls are helping a worthwhile cause, Zephyr. This self-funded charity helps children in refuges by supplying necessities for life. As part of the project, students need to design a marketing strategy. Through costumes and dancing, 6R promoted their request for toiletries. This week, 6G sent a plea for underwear and next term 6B will be requesting water bottles and lunchboxes. Through the Year 6 stewardship of this project the girls are hoping that all students in the school community will take responsibility to source these donations.

Once again, the Spirit Captains rallied the school, and through their own initiative identified and rewarded Athletics Carnival spectators who showed real spirit.

In the physical development sphere, the Andrews Cup athletics team members were presented with their place ribbons. Congratulations to the team.

This example of an Assembly not only highlights the opportunities that are afforded to the girls, but also identifies how their experiences address all aspects (social/emotional, academic and physical) of a child’s growth which we will continue to watch next term.

I wish everyone a safe and happy holiday and I am looking forward to accompanying some Years 5 and 6 girls as we head to Japan today.

168¿ª½±¹ÙÍø’s Community Upcoming Events

Professional Women’s Network Cocktail Event with guest speaker, Trish Jackson (’79)

Date: Thursday 17 October 2019

Time: 5:30pm start, 7:30pm finish

Venue: McCullough Robertson, Level 11, 66 Eagle Street, Brisbane

Tickets: Corporate groups $800 for 10, $80 adult and $40 students (Years 10-12/tertiary)

Surviving against all odds, Trish Jackson uses her disability to educate the next generation; the key to ending bullying and discrimination. Trish is one of 10,000 babies born with several birth defects because her mother was given a sample packet of the drug Thalidomide, a supposedly ‘safe’ drug, during her pregnancy.

After graduating, Trish’s second job was ironically in the health department in the pharmaceutical section – ironic for two reasons: she was the result of the greatest pharmaceutical disaster in the world and the government who had told her she ‘could not work’ ended up being her employer for over a decade.

Today she is a guest speaker and agent for change – she is still campaigning for compensation after 57 years for the harm caused by the drug Thalidomide.

Join us for our PWN Cocktail event as Trish will share how, in the face of adversity, she has chartered her own professional path and how corporate workplaces can create a more inclusive culture.

Tickets are available via Flexischools. Please to purchase your ticket.

We sincerely thank our corporate sponsors for their generous support of the Series.

Associate Sponsors: Pitcher Partners and McCullough Robertson.

Supporting Partners: Downer, NAB, Programmed Property Services, Clear Insurance and QBI (Queensland Brain Institute).
