    Principals New to the Ballarat Diocese in 2016

    PRINCIPALS NEW TO THE BALLARAT DIOCESE IN 2016 We would like to extend a warm welcome to new principals in four schools around the Diocese. We introduce Mr Joe Caruana - St Aloysius School Redan, Ms Marg Blythman - St Joseph’s College Mildura, Mrs Leigh Bradshaw - Co-principal at Our Lady Help of Christians Wendouree and Mr Paddy Ryan, also Co-principal at Our Lady Help of Christians Wendouree. We wish them all the best in their new positions. Mr Joe Caruana, St Aloysius School, Redan Joe is in his 30th year of Catholic Primary School Principalship. Most of his career in teaching has been working in Melbourne's Western Suburbs and New Gisborne to the north. His formal qualifications include studies in Religious Education, Education Law and Community Mediation. Joe is married to Jill and they are proud parents of six grown up children and two grandchildren, soon to be three. Joe's passion in education is children with additional learning needs and he has strived to provide the best educational offerings for these children in cooperation with his staff and children's families. He loves spending time in classrooms and playing his guitar for the children (and sometimes their teachers!) to sing along. Joe also enjoys working on Annual Action Plans and other plans to ultimately improve children's learning outcomes. St Aloysius School is Joe's first appointment in Ballarat and he is loving working in the Central Zone with the many wonderful principals who also work there. Ms Marg Blythman, St Joseph’s College, Mildura As the new Principal of St Joseph’s College Mildura, Marg is honoured to be part of the Catherine McAuley and Mercy tradition.

    Volume 16 Issue 1 February 7Th, 2014 Year of Learning and Growing Together

    How wonderful it was to welcome our school community last week. Two hundred and ten enthusiastic Year Seven students arrived and were so excited to commence their first day at Secondary school. They were joined by our Year Twelve students who were also ‘excited’ to commence their final year of school. I always think how special it is on this day when we have students who are just embarking on their journey sharing the day with students who have arrived at the final stretch. To see them stand together From the Principal is quite poignant. On the next day, the remainder of the student body arrived with a great sense of anticipation and energy. The Xavier family was ready to begin another Volume 16 Issue 1 February 7th, 2014 year of learning and growing together. This year we welcome new members of staff to our teaching community: Renee Blyth (HSIE), Clair Bonarius (Science), Troy Garrett (Science), Meaghan Ireland (PDHPE), Maria Mazzocchi (HSIE), Caryanne Moylan (RE and Liturgy Coordinator), Belinda Pearce (English), Mark Tynan (English and RE). We also welcome Melanie Daignault and Amanda Williams to the Kirinari team. I know that they will all make a special contribution to our Xavier community. In this newsletter we have included a full directory of all teaching and support staff at Xavier College in 2014. This year there is also a new model of leadership with two new positions being created: The Leader of Learning and the Leader of Well-Being. I have invited all members of the Leadership Team to contribute to this our first edition so that you may get to know them and have an understanding of their roles within the College.

    Masters Considered a Report That After the Matches, Xavier College V. Scotch College, and Wesley College V

    ADAMSON IN PUBLIC LIFE 181 also prohibited. At the end of August, 1917, the Head­ masters considered a report that after the matches, Xavier College V. Scotch College, and Wesley College v. Melbourne Grammar School, on the previous week "war cries" had been used. On the evidence it appeared that the Wesley "war cry" had been used by a number of boys from Scotch College and Melbourne Grammar School. The Headmasters considered that the use of "war cries" constituted a "regrettable inci- dens", and a resolution was carried that as "war cries" were used at and after two recent football matches, and there were gatherings of boys to shout at each other after these matches, thus constituting "regrettable incidents", the Pub­ lic Schools competitions for the remainder of the year were suspended. The effect of this was that there were no com­ bined sports in 1917, and no cricket premiership. As soon as the Third Term commenced the captains of the six Associated Public Schools held a meeting, and sent a letter to the Headmasters, asking if under certain condi­ tions and under certain guarantees for the future the com­ petitions might be allowed to proceed. The Headmasters held a special meeting on 22nd Sep­ tember to consider this letter, and finally instructed the Hon. Secretary of the Headmasters to write to the Captains of the Public Schools in the following terms:— "The Headmasters regret that they cannot see their way to alter their decision of 30th August, but they fully appreciate the good motives which prompted the action of the Captains, and consider that had such a letter been re­ ceived before the meeting of 30th August, it might have materially influenced their attitude." The opinion was expressed that the meeting of the Pub­ lic School Captains to discuss matters concerning the general welfare of the schools was an excellent innovation, likely to have a far-reaching influence for good in the future.

In a mere 500 years, a tiny fraction of humanity’s long history, science – and the technological advances that have stemmed from it – has completely transformed every part of our lives. The scale of humanity’s scientific transformation in such a short period is so immense it’s hard to grasp. My grandmother was alive when one of the world’s oldest airlines, Qantas, was born. In her lifetime, flight has become as routine as daily roll call. Disease, famine and the toll of manual labour that once ravaged the world’s population have also been dramatically reduced. Science is at the heart of this progress. Given such incredible advancement, it’s tempting to think that science education must be in pretty good shape. Sadly, it isn’t. We could talk about falling PISA rankings, or declining STEM enrolments. But instead, and perhaps more importantly, let’s consider the world to which our students will graduate. A world of “fake news” and “alternative facts”.
