This annual event is held to promote the special ethos of Catholic schools and to highlight the great things that take place in Catholic schools every day. The theme for this year’s celebrations is: Many Voices. One Spirit. Catholic education strives to make a difference in the lives of those in our schools and in the wider community by challenging young people to live out the message of Jesus and to reach their full potential as compassionate, contributing, life-giving members of society. There are 306 Catholic schools in Queensland that educate around 149,000 students and employ more than 20,000 teachers and staff, and most will celebrate Catholic Education Week in some way. Our school is planning a number of activities during the week and we hope you are able to join in the celebrations with us. I thank you for your ongoing support and look forward to seeing you during Catholic Education Week 2019. Flu Season Reminder As you are aware every year Queensland experiences an influenza or flu season. As we enter this season it is timely to remind parents and care-givers not to be complacent about flu. Flu is a virus more serious than the common cold and can be spread through talking, coughing and sneezing. Symptoms include sudden fever, dry cough, muscle aches and pains, fatigue, headache, sore throat and a stuffy or runny nose. If your child has flu-like symptoms, the following is advised: • Keep your child home from school; • Ensure your child washes their hands regularly with soap and water or hand sanitiser gel; • Wash your hands before and after touching your eyes, nose and mouth; • Encourage your children when coughing or sneezing, to cover their mouth and nose with disposable tissues which should be disposed of immediately; Page | 2 • Don't share items such as glasses or cups, lipstick, toys or anything which could be contaminated with respiratory secretions; • Maintain at least one metre distance from people who have flu-like symptoms such as coughing or sneezing; • Ensure they drink plenty of fluids and get lots of rest; • Consult your doctor if you are concerned about their symptoms. The school requests that anyone displaying flu-like symptoms stay at home until such symptoms have passed. Families should also reinforce the recommended protective actions listed above. Increased awareness and ongoing attention to prevention and control measures, such as vaccination and good hygiene, are steps that we can all promote to reduce the impact of influenza. For further information please contact Queensland Health on www.health.qld.gov.au or phone 13HEALTH (13 432584). Whooping Cough Queensland Health has advised Rockhampton Catholic Education that whooping cough is currently prevalent in the wider community. Whooping cough is a contagious respiratory infection and can affect people of any age. In some individuals, the infection may only cause a persistent cough, in others it may start like a cold with a runny nose, sneezing and tiredness, and then progress to the characteristic coughing bouts. It is suggested that parents remind children of the following hygiene practices: • stay home when you are sick; • wash your hands frequently with soap and water or hand sanitiser gel; • wash your hands before and after touching your eyes, nose and mouth; • when coughing or sneezing, cover your mouth and nose with disposable tissues which should be disposed of immediately; • don't share items such as glasses or cups, lipstick, toys or anything which could be contaminated with respiratory secretions; • maintain at least one metre distance from people who have flu-like symptoms such as coughing or sneezing Vaccination, exclusion and early diagnosis is important to limit the spread of whooping cough in our community. Anyone who displays symptoms of whooping cough is encouraged to seek medical advice. For further information please contact Queensland Health on www.health.qld.gov.au or phone 13HEALTH (13 432584).

Welcome to all members of our College community to Term 3. In real life it’s not what a person says that shows us who they are; it’s what they do. There is no better example of this with the life of Nelson Mandela. Last Wednesday was Nelson Mandela Day. This day is observed on Mandela’s birthday and was created to honour his legacy by promoting community service around the world. It was first observed on 18 July 2009 and, later that year, the United Nations declared that the day would be observed annually as Nelson Mandela International Day. Mandela Day calls on us all, every day, to make the world a better place. Each year on 18 July we look back on what has been done and forward to what will be done. Making every day a Mandela Day celebrates Madiba’s life and legacy in a sustainable way that will bring about enduring change.

Sir Winston Churchill was one of the most widely revered and iconic leaders in world history. He was a wartime Prime Minister and his passion and courage quite literally altered the course of history. He once stated, “Success is not final, failure is not fatal, it is the courage to continue that counts.” This quote is important for all our students to reflect upon as they receive their Semester 1 academic reports this week. In receiving their reports, they need to compare their Term 1 and Term 2 results and identify if their grades have been maintained or improved in the first half of the year. For some students the year commences with great enthusiasm and a focus on their studies. However, as the semester progresses and the novelty of being back to school diminishes, this can sometimes reflect a deterioration in their commitment to their studies. The key to becoming an effective student is learning how to study smarter, not harder.

    An overview of Stile, Australia’s #1 science resource provider EXECUTIVE SUMMARY FOR SCHOOL LEADERS Stile | Executive summary for school leaders 2 Table of contents Welcome letter 3 How we are rethinking science education > Our principles 5 > Our pedagogy 7 > Our approach 9 A simple solution > Stile Classroom 12 > Squiz 14 > Professional learning 15 > Stile Concierge 16 Key benefits 17 The Stile community of schools 19 The rest is easy 24 Stile | Executive summary for school leaders 3 It’s time to rethink science at school I’m continuously awestruck by the sheer power of science. 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”.
