2018 YEAR OF COURAGE - LEADING WITH COURAGE
ST RITA’S COLLEGE
Dear Parents/Guardians,
Last Thursday, 12 September, was Australia’s national action day known as R U OK? day. It is a day set aside each year at about this time to remind all of us that there are those amongst us who can find life’s ups and downs quite daunting and, as members of caring communities, we can do much to support them. We are urged to become familiar with the signs that someone might need support by listening to what
they’re saying, seeing what they’re doing or knowing what’s going on in their life and that whenever we notice a change, no matter how small, trust your instincts and start an R U OK? conversation.
This day highlights the importance of talking openly about mental health issues, and the fact there are so many modern-day pressures that we can all be susceptible to letting life get us down sometimes. There are things we can do to help get life back on an even keel when things aren’t going right. We need to help ourselves and others develop mental resilience and that is done by considering more deeply what it means to live a happy life.
This question of what makes for a happy life has been tossed around by countless great minds throughout human history. Plato believed and taught that a happy life was lived by those who are just, who live courageously, moderately and wisely. Aristotle agreed, but also added that happiness was enhanced by having children and friends, avoiding illness and being allowed to live out a full life. In the 19th century, the famous German philosopher, Immanuel Kant, philosophised that in order to be happy in life you needed “something to do, someone to love, and something to hope for.”
Our own Pope Francis, in an interview a few years ago, was asked about what he
considered to be the secrets to leading a happy life. Francis, in similar vein to Kant, considers that being able to work and provide for family and loved ones through one’s honest labour is a key ingredient to building a sense of worth and living with dignity. It is part of the human condition that we need those labour-centred aspects of living to help give life meaning and it involves more than just being occupied at doing something for money. It must have meaning and our society should ensure innovative ways are found to create dignified jobs especially for young people. As parents and educators of young adults, it is especially important that we are as supportive as we can be as they enter the world of work. Keep reminding them that what they end up doing must have meaning for them.
The second essence of happiness, according to Pope Francis, is leading a life that is hopeful. Our Christian faith endows us with the hope that there is more to life than what we experience materially. This is very much counter-cultural in our consumerist world. However, as Francis points out, consumerism has only brought us anxiety and stress because our time is "swallowed up" chasing and accumulating stuff, but in the end, not knowing what it is all for.
I would like to wish all the girls and their families a very relaxing holiday. There has been so much sickness this year and the girls have worked hard to complete their studies and participate fully in the life of the College. I hope the Spring weather will bring us all time to relax and spend time with our loved ones. I wish all families travelling over these holiday safe travels and I look forward to welcoming you all back in Term 4.
God bless,
Mrs Dale MorrowPrincipal, St Rita’s College

DEPUTY PRINCIPAL - STUDENTSMs Catherine AllenThe end of Term is a good time to reflect with your daughter/s about efforts across the Term. The following article looks at different student types and is worth a read. It would be a good discussion starter. Click here
Everyone has heard a lot about the impact, both positive and negative, of mobile phone use and whether some use could be deemed an addiction. The following article discusses this subject, symptoms of addiction and treatment options. Have a read: https://www.psycom.net/cell-phone-internet-addiction
Please note that students will not be able to use their mobile phones (e.g. Apple pay) to pay for items or services at any College facility. Students will need to use a credit/debit card. This will commence from the start of Term 4.
I hope that you all enjoy a wonderful holiday filled with rest and many opportunities for relaxation and fun. Thank you for all your efforts across this busy Term.
Rest in the holidaysIt is important that students take the time in these holidays to rest and re-charge for the final Term of this year. After a busy Term 3, I encourage all students to relax and enjoy the unstructured days of the holidays. Sometimes we fill the holidays with lots of activities, going places and catching up with friends and family, when we just need time to wind down our brain and our bodies. We want our students to return to Term 4 feeling refreshed and energised, which can only happen if they have enjoyed the time-out that holidays offer.
Enrichment ExperiencesThe College has reviewed the number of Enrichment Experiences offered for students, and when these can be available. Due to the assessment demands with the new QCE, Year 12 students will no longer be permitted on Enrichment Experiences after 2020.
Year 12 Term 4The following are some key dates for Year 12 students next Term:• Exam Block – Monday 4 November – Friday 8 November• Graduation Day – Wednesday 13 November• Last day of school – Friday 15 November (Year 12 students must attend in the
morning for roll call)• SAIs published for checking – Wednesday 20 November (please note that the
SAIs cannot be emailed or photographed. Students or family members must come into the College to write these down).
Term 4 Staff ChangesIn Term 4, Ms Marie Coleman will commence maternity leave with the Acting Head of Diverse Learning Needs covered by Mrs Kerrie Burton. Mr Joel Negline will return from paternity leave. There will be a number of teacher changes to facilitate these movements and students and parents will be notified of these via email.

NAPLAN 2019 Individual Student ResultsNAPLAN 2019 individual student results have been mailed to the parents of Year 7 and Year 9 students. Please contact me if you have not received your daughter’s 2019 NAPLAN results ([email protected]).
The College has until this Friday 20 September to lodge an application with the QCAA to query student NAPLAN reports. Please let me now if you would like the College to raise a query with the QCAA regarding your daughter’s NAPLAN results.
NAPLAN Online School Readiness Test 5 SeptemberIn preparation for our transition to NAPLAN Online next year, the College was required by ACARA to complete a NAPLAN Online School Readiness Activity this
Term. This was completed on the morning of 5 September by the Year 7 and Year 8 cohorts. The principal purpose of this activity was to test the College's technical and administrative ability to run NAPLAN Online. It was not a test of student ability, and the College receives no results for this test.
The session went well, and feedback provided from those teachers who were test administrators will be used to refine our processes and technical capabilities in readiness for NAPLAN Online in 2020. In the interim, ACARA has mandated a full NAPLAN Online practice test in March 2020, and this will provide the College with further valuable feedback prior to the May test sessions.
I would like to thank all staff and students involved in the School Readiness Test.
School Holiday HoursThe Boutique will be open over the school holiday period each Monday to Friday, 8:00am to 3:00pm. Visitors to the Boutique are requested to check in at College Reception.
Volunteers for Fitout in November Fitouts for new students will be held on each Saturday in November – five of them. If you would like to volunteer to assist with fitouts, please send an email to [email protected] giving your name and which Saturdays you will be available.
Online Boutique Don’t forget – parents may now use the Online Boutique to order uniform items. The Online Boutique can be accessed from MySRC, the College App or the Website. Once payment has been processed and the order prepared, an email is sent to your daughter to let her know it is ready and to drop by and collect it.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the Boutique Coordinator, Ms Marilyn Couch, on 3862 1615.

Rosa House Sudsy ChallengeFrom Thursday 15 – Monday 19 August, eight staff and 81 students from Rosa House participated in the Sudsy Challenge. This challenge required students to wear the same shirt for three days (without washing it) in order to raise awareness of homelessness and the amazing work of Orange Sky Australia, https://orangesky.org.au. Click here to read an impact report for the proceeds of the Rosa House fundraiser for Orange Sky. The highlights are:
• $3,888.45 raised• 14 Orange Sky shifts• 68 washes• 68 showers• 108 conversation hours• 142 people supported
This is a wonderful achievement. We extend a sincere thank you to everyone who sponsored the students and to all the families and friends for their very generous donations to achieve this amazing result. Congratulations to all staff and students who got involved and to Mrs Holden, Caitlin Hodda and Faye Jahnke for their leadership of this fundraiser in support of Rosa House’s Presentation ministry.
RYPEN CampCongratulations to Jordyn Keble (Year 10, N5) who participated in the annual RYPEN Camp, a youth development program for 14-17 year olds facilitated by Rotary, from 23-25 August. Jordyn has kindly agreed to share her experience with us. Any student interested in participating in the camp next year, can apply when applications open in June 2020.
On the 23 August, I departed Brisbane for the RYPEN Camp at Coolum. Within a bus ride, I got to know the other 37 other students I would be spending my weekend with. Once we arrived at the camp site we were greeted by the motivating energy of our leaders and jumped straight into the activities with our assigned groups. Throughout the course of the weekend we participated in various activities that I believe had great value. They taught me how to be adaptable in situations when things don’t work out. They taught me that in order to produce a good result you need a good team behind you and that you need to work together with everyone. Most importantly, they taught me how to lead in the right way. Being a leader isn’t always about being the loudest in the room; it’s about seeing everyone’s strengths and working with these so that everyone has a voice and can achieve the best result together. Other activities we participated in over the weekend included the flying fox, a ‘Survivor’ theme game as well as a talent show. These activities pushed me outside my comfort zone allowing me to gain the confidence to explore my full potential. To have like-minded people come together to learn and grow, was truly an unforgettable experience and I recommended it to anyone who
is seeking to learn more about leadership and how to effectively make a difference.

Cambodia ImmersionA few weeks ago, at our final Assembly for the Term, students shared their reflections on the Murgon and Cambodia immersions. In this week’s edition of Verbis, I would like to share with you the third and final instalment of our immersion reflection series. This reflection on the Cambodia Immersion was prepared by Kaitlyn Spiteri (Year 11, CA6) and Josephine Barrett (Year 11, CA1):
Over the June/July holidays, 16 students accompanied by Ms Allen, Mrs Anders and Mrs Star, embarked on the trip of a lifetime to Cambodia. Landing first in the capital Phnom Penh, we were met by extremely humid weather and loud bustling streets where we soon realised road rules did not exist. As we walked down the streets of Phnom Penh, we immediately noticed the vastly different culture and lifestyle of Cambodian people where palaces and slums were located opposite one another. During the first few days we visited the Toul Sleng Genocide Museum and Killing Fields (a sombre reminder of the reign of Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge), attended a traditional Khmer cooking class, visited the Tabitha Foundation, had our first taste of deep fried tarantula and crickets, and visited the Central Market where we each tried our hand at bartering.
The next five days were spent at Salla Lavalla, a school for differently abled children run by the Marist Brothers. We spent the mornings preparing the gardens for the new senior school accommodation, and the afternoons working in the classrooms and teaching our prepared lessons. Every day, after the bell rang for lunch, every student would run out of class, grab our hands, and lead us to their lunch tables. Although the language barrier was a challenge, laughter acted in place of words. After being full from the several plates of Khmer cuisine served to us, we were then dragged out into the playground either to play basketball, soccer, colour-in, sing, or even attempt to learn each other’s language. It was quality time that gave us the opportunity to build a strong connection with each student. Seeing each child unafraid to have a go despite their disability and act with the such compassion towards one another, was
overwhelming yet immensely inspiring. Honestly, we learnt much more from those kids than we could ever have taught them. Because of this, leaving Lavalla was one of the hardest things any of us have ever had to do. We are so grateful for the time we were able to spend with them.
After spending one week in Phnom Penh, it was time to take our five-hour bus trip to Siem Reap, stopping only for lunch and to visit the Spider Markets. The name was extremely fitting considering we had tarantulas walking up our arms and across our heads, certainly an experience we will never forget. Once we arrived in Siem Reap, we met Sister Denise Coghlan at the Metta Karuna Reflection Centre, went to evening Mass, had dinner, then walked through the bustling “Pub Street”, where international travellers enjoyed the Cambodian nightlife. The next day was filled with visits to several temples including the iconic Tomb Raider temple (Ta Phrom) and Angkor Wat, the largest and undoubtedly most breathtaking of the seven ancient wonders of the world.
For our last few days in Cambodia, we headed two hours out of Siem Reap to a remote village. Our time in the village was spent building toilet blocks for poor families who would otherwise continue to live without this basic necessity. The hard work quickly paid off as we spent the afternoons with the families and their children, seeing just how happy they were despite the simple lives they lived. Before we left, we decided to distribute our shoes and extra sunscreen and insect repellent amongst the families. For this they were so thankful and I think it reminded us all that although it was a small gesture, it meant the absolute world to them.
Overall, Cambodia was truly an unforgettable experience which will stay with us for the rest of our lives. On behalf of all of the girls, we would like to say a huge thank you to Ms Allen, Mrs Anders and Mrs Star and for accompanying us on this journey.
