This booklet gives an overview of the Co-curricular Program at the College in 2020. It is a broad program and hence this booklet provides a general account only of the requirements of co-curricular activity. Activity specific details which contain more detailed information such as rehearsal/training times, venues, conductors, coaches and tutors details and other helpful information are provided by the Head of Sport and MICs at the beginning of each season. As detailed herein a large number and diverse range of activities are on offer for the students at Downlands. With this array of activities, students of all abilities are catered for. The College values co-curricular involvement as an important means of developing essential life-long cultural/physical skills, positive attitudes and healthy behaviours. Parents are strongly encouraged to be involved in their children’s co-curricular pursuits, particularly through their attendance at performances and matches. This attendance is invaluable and creates an environment which is conducive to quality performances and helps develop a united, supportive approach. We appreciate the time and effort required of parents and thank you in advance for your support. I look forward to an enjoyable year of co-curricular activity and I encourage all students to be involved in a balanced way in the co-curricular opportunities available at the College. If you have any further questions please contact me as we all work together for the development of a quality program of co-curricular activity at Downlands in 2020. Yours sincerely Mr John McAtomney Head of Co-Curricular Contacts: Head of Co-curricular Head of Sport: MIC Performance: Mr John McAtomney Mr Jeromy Wainwright Mr Shane Tooley P: 07 4690 9682 P: 07 4690 9554 P: 07 4690 9590 E: [email protected] E: [email protected] E: [email protected] Downlands College Ltd Co-Curricular Handbook 2020 72 Ruthven St PO Box 250 Toowoomba Queensland Australia Tel. +61 7 4690 9500 ABN 96 071 878 478 RTO 30039 CRICOS Pro.No.00494F 5 MSC Vision in Education MSC schools exist to proclaim and witness to the love of God. They aim to make Gospel values real in the lives of young people, their families and the staff who serve them. With care, compassion and understanding as their hallmark qualities, MSC schools strive to build a community of faith among staff, parents and students. Great value is placed on commitment, trust and acceptance of others in fostering the growth of community. In the spirit of a loving and supportive family, members help one another grow in knowledge, faith and service. While aiming for excellence in the search for truth, MSC schools recognise the importance of balanced human development and strive to help young people to achieve their full potential in all areas of life, and to be ready to show initiative in parish, religious and civic life. Staff relate to students with compassion and availability, creating a sense of family which permeates their attitude as professional teachers and caring adults. Staff also relate to each other with the same sense of understanding and care, ministering to each other in an atmosphere of friendship and collegiality. College Vision Statement Our approach to education can be summed up in a simple phrase: The heart of education is the education of the heart. We are attempting to engage hearts and minds in the classrooms and other school activities. We recognise that the best learning and best learning outcomes are the result of good relationships between people. Good discipline also comes from good and healthy relationships between people in the school community. We enjoy celebrating our difference and we are aware that in all we do with the young people in our care, that - we are reaching out to the future. Again, in simple terms: at Downlands we are about loving young people into the fullness of human life. To help us in this we have the most wonderful tools at our disposal: teachers passionate about teaching and learning; supportive parents; generous support staff; the key learning areas; extra-curricular activities and generally happy young people. Downlands and the students, teachers, staff and parents who make up the school community are all human and are “works in progress” and therefore are not perfect. However, the aims are clear and each day is a contribution again to this ‘work in progress’. We want to be like Jesus who loved with a human heart. MSC Constitutions #10 Downlands College Ltd Co-Curricular Handbook 2020 6 72 Ruthven St PO Box 250 Toowoomba Queensland Australia Tel. +61 7 4690 9500 ABN 96 071 878 478 RTO 30039 CRICOS Pro.No.00494F Co-Curricular Overview Downlands College offers a diverse co-curricular program, with The Arts and Sport being major parts of this extended educational experience. It is not a condition of enrolment that all students contribute through participation in some area of the co-curricular life of the College, but it is desirable that this be the ideal. Participation by all according to the relative interest and abilities of each student is sought and valued by the College, parents and students. The co-curricular sphere of College life is one where most parents feel that they can become comfortably involved and it is the medium through which parents can develop a network of adult friends, get to know many of the College staff and it provides parents with a means of meeting their daughter’s and son’s student friends. It is our responsibility as co-curricular staff to make parents/carers (particularly those new to the College) feel welcome, included and to encourage their participation and involvement in meaningful ways within this sphere of College life. The Friends of the Performing Arts (FOPA), Sport Supporters (DCSS) and Agricultural Supporters are parent support groups that welcome newcomers and there are numerous other ways for parents/carers to contribute to the co-curricular life of the College. Co-Curricular Activities The Arts: Choirs and Instrumental Ensembles: • Prima Voces, Canticum Choir, The Fortesmen, Gryphon Chorale • String Ensemble, Concert Band, Jazz

    A message from our Principal Downlands College extends a warm welcome to you and your family. I am very proud and privileged to be the Principal of this exceptional school that has developed leaders, entrepreneurs and individuals who have made a difference in the world. Founded by the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart (MSC) in 1931, Downlands College has a rich history and continues to be characterised by its strong Catholic ethos and MSC spirit which underpins all we do. At Downlands we acknowledge and embrace the diverse heritage, cultures and backgrounds of our students, staff and broader school community. The development of strong, life-giving relationships forms the cornerstone of a Downlands education, and our unique MSC heritage ensures that the Downlands journey is intertwined with an ‘education of the heart’. A focus on relationships allows our core values of love, courage, compassion, understanding and humility to be woven through all our interactions. Widely recognised as a leading coeducational day and boarding school, Downlands College is known as the ‘school of choice’ and a school ‘where your heart finds a home’. At Downlands there is a niche for every student. We journey with each individual student academically and pastorally to provide the best possible school and post-school pathway. Opportunities include a very broad curriculum offering (academic and Vocational Education and Training), sport, performing arts, agriculture, leadership, social justice projects and community service. Our goal is to have happy students who perform to their personal best in all situations and who take responsibility for their learning and relationships. This includes student presentation, excellence in academic pursuits, co-curricular involvement, treating peers and community members with respect and kindness, and having a sense of humour.

He followed them there after his senior year, studied law, practised it briefly, and then returned for more study and shar- ing with students. Found that immensely satisfying but recognises that it is a minority taste. So also is his love for Bach, Schubert, Bob Dylan, Woody Guthrie and Leonard Cohen among others. Miraculously, Ann hasn’t kicked him out after 42 years but their three kiddies have long escaped, one to Brisbane. ohn Hodgkinson After leaving school I worked for the CSIRO for 40 years and retired J in 2004.

We respectfully thank the elders of this traditional land both past and present for guiding us through the journey of time to where we are today. This spiritual and cultural journey is significant in allowing the freedoms our society has today. As a community we reflect on the history of Australia and its First Nations peoples and ask all elders to guide us to a promising and enriching future. As a community we will continue to develop our minds to be respectful and learn from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders as well as all people who make up this country of Australia. Dear Parents and Carers, Introduction Next week, our Senior Leaders will attend a Diocese Mass celebrating 200 Years of Catholic Education in Australia. In this country, over the past two centuries, we have been gifted to have the opportunity to provide an education that is grounded in the mission of the church and develops the spirituality of students to build a more just and equitable world. Although the number of people attending church maybe declining, for many of our students today the College is the church.
