Dear Parents, Graduation day has come and gone for another year. Year Twelve girls and their parents appeared to me to be having a memorable day. It takes a great deal of effort and attention to detail to make the day look as if it is running all by itself. On behalf of our community I thank Ms Horne and Ms Taylor for all their organisation of the day, to Mrs Day for the Graduation Mass and to the Music staff for the Music at the Graduation Assembly, Eucharist and at the cocktail party. These teachers have had wonderful support for a number of weeks from the office staff. And so we begin again. Our Year Eleven girls become the HSC class of 2016 as soon as they return on Tuesday 6th October. Girls return in summer uniform and I would be grateful to parents if they would spend some time on the holidays ensuring that their daughter’s summer uniform still fits her and is the required length. May all have a restful holiday with many moments of peace and fun.

Dear Parents,

Graduation day has come and gone for another year. Year Twelve girls and their parents appeared to me to be having a memorable day. It takes a great deal of effort and attention to detail to make the day look as if it is running all by itself. On behalf of our community I thank Ms Horne and Ms Taylor for all their organisation of the day, to Mrs Day for the Graduation Mass and to the Music staff for the Music at the Graduation Assembly, Eucharist and at the cocktail party. These teachers have had wonderful support for a number of weeks from the office staff. And so we begin again. Our Year Eleven girls become the HSC class of 2016 as soon as they return on Tuesday 6th October. Girls return in summer uniform and I would be grateful to parents if they would spend some time on the holidays ensuring that their daughter’s summer uniform still fits her and is the required length. May all have a restful holiday with many moments of peace and fun.

CGSSSA DANCE CHAMPIONSHIPS, 2015 On Wednesday 9th September, Brigidine College participated in the CGSSSA Dance Championships held at the new location of Monte St Angelo’s. We entered 4 teams, consisting of students from year 7-12, in Tap, Hip Hop, Jazz and Contemporary. All of the girls involved put in many hours of rehearsal time to make the routines come together, including lunchtime and afternoon rehearsals as well as Sunday rehearsals. All of their hard work and preparation was certainly worth the effort. On the day, the girls looked amazing and held themselves very professionally. The standard at the Championships was exceptionally high and unfortunately we missed out on a place this year. However, the enthusiasm, positivity and energy of our performers was remarkable and they all looked amazing in their make-up and costumes. The students should be so proud of their performances, focus and dedication. We all enjoyed the day immensely. Special thanks to Liora, who choreographed and coached our girls at lunchtimes, morning and afternoons and Sundays. Your dedication and enthusiasm for developing Dance at Brigidine is greatly appreciated. Finally, thank you to all of the CGSSSA Dance girls.

SAVE THE DATE

ENGLISH DEPARTMENT NEWS Year 12 enjoyed a final full day of English on Monday 7 September. Most of the day was taken up

with workshops designed to provide revision and extension, provided by their English teachers.

The last session of the day was a Q & A style panel devoted to the concept of Discovery, which is

the focus of Paper 1 in the HSC examinations. Our invited quests were most generous in giving up

their time to talk so expansively about their own experiences of personal and professional

Discovery. This session was the highlight of the day.

We learnt about good choices and bad choices, planning and not planning, Plan Bs and

serendipity, dealing with stress and enjoying relationships with the people around us. Students

were also intrigued by the professional lives of our guests, asking about journalism, working with

refugees and joining the police force.

We would like to thank the following people: Mr Mark Corcoran, Sr Maureen Keady, Mrs

Elisabeth Casamento and Detective Superintendent Michael Fitzgerald.

Here are some comments on the day:

Sinead Docherty: It was great to listen to a group of people who are from completely

different backgrounds and who work in completely different areas and jobs that share a

very similar sense of discovery and experience similar things.

Georgia Scells: The guest speakers were interesting to listen to as well as Mr Penteado's

session, which I found to be helpful.

Rebecca Srbinovska: The Q&A was by far the highlight of the day! It was very intriguing

listening to what these four very different people had to offer about their careers and in

terms of life skills in general.

Lucy Kelley: The Q and A Session was a strength! Also the session on analytical writing

with Mrs Wetherell (and all the practice questions she gave us for the Discovery Essay).

Grace Kilponen: A great way to revise what we had done throughout the HSC year, as

well as going through points of improvement after trials!

Sarah Karaoglu: A good opportunity to communicate with adults in other professions and

hear about their experiences in the work force. Also a great way to revise and improve

literary skills before the HSC exams.

Teebana Balakumar: It has made my English gooder.

Thank you to all the teachers who presented with such enthusiasm: Ms Fairall, Mr

Morgan, Mr Penteado, Mr Talay, Ms Sandell, Mrs Wetherall.

The English Extension 1 class also had a day devoted to their study of After the Bomb. We

consolidated our understanding of Existentialism for our analysis of Beckett’s Waiting for

Godot by listening to a podcast from ‘In Our Time’ with Melvyn Bragg; engaged in some

interactive and kinaesthetic learning strategies to problem solve in groups; established

study plans and goals and celebrated all our hard work by watching the relevant text,

Good night and good luck.

We wish all our HSC candidates the very best in their studies and in their

examinations.

YOUTH FORUM 2015

“I urgently appeal, then, for a new dialogue about how we are shaping the future of our planet. We

need a conversation that includes everyone, since the environment challenge we are undergoing, and

its human roots, concern and affect us all”

Pope Francis

Last Wednesday on the 9th of September, three year 10 students, Helen Beaini, Holly Lockhart

and Chiara Harbutt travelled with Mrs Ross and Mrs Day to the annual Youth Forum held by the

CEO at Daceyville. The theme of the day was based on Care for our common home, a young

person’s response to the Pope Francis’ encyclical, Laudato Si'. Laudato Si means “Praise be to

you” which is the first line of a canticle by St. Francis that praises God with all of his creation.

Students from Years 11 and 10 from across the Sydney Archdiocese, along with their teachers and

Dr Dan White, (Executive Director of Catholic Schools,) explored the powerful challenge that Pope

Francis has presented in his recent encyclical.

Each school was given a chapter to discuss with others on their assigned table. Our school

received Chapter Three: The Human Roots of the Ecological Crisis.

The aim of the day was to discuss and analyse the Pope's main message in the chapter. We came

to the conclusion that the encyclical is a worldwide “wake up call” to help humanity understand

the destruction that man is rendering on the environment and his fellow man. It presents Gospel

truths and it provides a challenge for every believer and non-believer alike.

It was an afternoon of reflection and discussion. We further developed our understanding on how

our world has been given to us as a gift from God. The earth and all that exists on it requires us to

be “stewards” of this precious gift. We regularly try not to leave our houses dirty or messy

therefore we mustn't leave our common home, Earth, unclean.

A big thanks goes to Mrs Ross and Mrs Day for accompanying

us and to the CEO and Dr Dan White for inviting us.

Farewell

The Science Department bids farewell to Rochelle Hunter, our long serving

Laboratory Assistant. Rochelle has been an integral part of the science scene here

at Brigidine for 9 years. During that time we have benefitted from her thorough

knowledge of laboratory techniques that has kept our department ticking over. Her

experience has greatly aided our teaching staff with the delivery of authentic

learning experiences for the girls. Rochelle, your “can do” attitude will be greatly

missed but we wish you well in your new endeavours.

Goodbye and Good Luck

Our Year Twelve girls have had their last formal classes this week. The Science

department wishes for them a time of effective study and good health over the next

six weeks. Your teachers, as always, are available on the end of an email or a phone

if you need help.

Holiday Opportunities.

The ConocoPhillips Science Experience,

Is a fun 3 days of science activities for Year 9 and 10 students. It is planned

to be conducted at the University of NSW between 28 and 30 September.

Each program is designed to provide students who have an interest in science

with an opportunity to engage in a wide range of fascinating science activities

under the guidance of scientists who love their work. The program also provides

information about further studies in science, technology and engineering. It

highlights the wide range of careers that allow students to pursue their interest

and abilities in the sciences. One aspect of the program often

commented on by participants is the opportunity to meet and

share ideas with students from different schools.

Each program includes a BBQ or other

social activity.

Cost of attendance is $120 per student. The Rotary Club of Randwick is

prepared to sponsor one student from each school. Should we have more than

one student, this sponsorship can be shared. Given that applications close very

soon, any students interested in attending, please fill out the application form

on the attached brochure, indicating sponsorship by the Rotary Club of

Randwick, and email it to [email protected] and cc it to Richard

Woodburn [email protected] The Rotary Club will then be directly

invoiced by the organisers.

More details are on the website at www.scienceexperience.com.au or you can

contact me for any other information or clarification.

Engineer's Australia Sydney Women in Engineering

Engineer's Australia Sydney Women in Engineering is delighted to be running

the Experience It! student engineering conference again on Thursday, 1 October

2015.

The Experience It! student conference is an all-day Engineering event for female HS

students in Years 9-12, aimed at encouraging young females to discover a career and

study Engineering at a tertiary institution. The conference will be an exciting and

busy day of hands-on workshops, team-based activities, inspirational speeches from

students and industry, a Careers Panel and networking event.

Due to positive student feedback from last year's event, they've increased

registrations from 100 to 160 this year. To accommodate this increase, they've

extended registrations for the event until 19 September 2015 and increased

industry visibility throughout the program.

An existing issue faced by the engineering profession is attracting young women

from secondary schools to study engineering and consider it a progressive, dynamic

and character-building career. Their solution is to provide a fun, interactive and

informative 1-day conference for students in Years 9-12.

If students want to know more about engineering and what they can do

as an engineer, this conference is for them!

What will students get out of it?

Students will get to explore the

peculiar, bizarre and awe-inspiring applications of engineering through:

Hands-on workshops;

Talks from current engineering students and industry representatives;

Learn what engineering is about and the careers and opportunities available to

them;

Careers panel and networking event - meet representatives from ARUP,

Aurecon, UWS + TBA

Who will be there?

Workshops and activities will be run by UNSW, UTS, UWS and UOW. EA Women

in Engineering representatives and event sponsors - ARUP, Aurecon, and UWS will

also be present. Students will hear from Scientia Professor Veena Sahajwalla -

Founding Director, Centre for Sustainable Materials Research and Technology

and Pia Seeto (TBA) - Portfolio Director for Managed Services, Ericsson.

Event information:

Venue: Colombo Theatre A, at UNSW Australia (160 capacity)

Date: Thursday, 1 October 2015 (8.45am – 4pm)
