The talented students of Gleeson College presented their production of ‘Song Contest - The Almost Eurovision

Experience’ at the Golden GroveArts Theatre last week.

This was an hilarious show, full of many puns, weird and wonderful set pieces, fabulous costumes, incredible lighting, amazing choreography and stunning

singers. The cast of 23 students performed brilliantly to appreciative audiences and the entire show was a huge success! Congratulations to all the students in the cast who worked tirelessly during their lunch times and

school holidays. A huge thank you also to Mrs Deptula and Mrs Parsons who

worked so closely with the students to create such a spectacular event. Thank

you also to the students in the back stage crew and to Ms Possingham

and Ms Freeth for their work behind the scenes.

What a fantastic way to start Term 3!

AN EXCITING START TO TERM 3!

Welcome back to Term 3, with a particular warm welcome to those students and families that have joined our community this term. We also welcome two new staff members in Laura Possingham teaching Music and Creative Arts, and Oliver Shattock, who will be teaching Design and technology Studies. I trust that all enjoy a smooth start to their faith and learning journey here at Gleeson College.

These next few weeks are crucial in the life of our Senior School students as they begin the process of choosing subjects they wish to study in 2019. The selection of appropriate subjects that lead to better engagement at school is so important, and can ensure successful outcomes including improved post-school options. It is therefore vital that all students and families engage in this process to the fullest extent possible.

We have again been treated to the extraordinary talents of our Performing Arts students last week with the production week of ‘Song Contest: The Almost Eurovision Experience’. What a fantastic performance worthy of every superlative that has come its way! Congratulations to all involved. For our community to be able to witness this showcase of the incredible talents of our students is simply a joy.

Last week we were able to welcome around 190 young people who will be joining Gleeson College in Year 7 and 8 in 2019. The transition from Primary school to Gleeson is something that we take very seriously, and something I believe we do exceptionally well. Thank you to the staff involved for all of their work in preparing such an engaging day, in particular deep thanks to Ms Amanda Price for all of her organisation and meticulous planning.

On Wednesday, we held our Semester 1 Academic Awards Assembly in the DRMC. Congratulations to all those students that we recognised as our academic achievers. These students completed an excellent first semester and should be justifiably proud of their achievements. Indeed, learning is as the Gleeson 10 says a life-long, never-ending pursuit, and our Academic Assembly is testament to the fact that there are many students here at Gleeson College who are committed, along with the staff, to continually strive to learn, to grow, to be inquisitive, and to support and encourage one another. Thanks you to our 2017 Proxime Accessit Kyle Sauerwald for his excellent and thought-provoking speech, and to our Deputy Principal Mr Joe Corbo for his outstanding organisation of the assembly.

During the holidays I was fortunate to be able to attend a conference for Catholic School Secondary Principals who had

gathered for a bi-annual conference from all around the country. The fact that the conference was in Cairns with the weather being 28 degrees and sunny each day was an added bonus!

One of the number of excellent speakers was Fr Frank Brennan, a Jesuit priest, lawyer and activist. His topic of leading Catholic schools in diverse times was very important. Fr Brennan’s contention that Catholic schools have never been more important posed a special challenge to us school leaders. I believe that these diverse times that we now encounter asks of our community to be the most positive and hope-filled environment that we can possibly be. With the complexity of our society, it is incumbent on us to be a place of life-giving positivity, a place of care and love, and above all a place where all are, in Fr Brennan’s terms ‘welcomed to the table’.

Mr Andrew Baker,Principal

The thoughts, prayers and support of our Gleeson College community

are with Millicent Anderson(11 FSMIL) and her family on the recent passing of her paternal

Grandmother. May she rest in peace and God comfort family and friends

at this sad time.

With Sympathy

Rest In Peace

HUGHES MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS TAILOR NEWSPAPER SUITS!As part of

the Personal Development Plan

(PDP) topic of ‘Essential Elements of Health and Well

Being’, Middle School students created newspaper suits last week.

This activity supported current learning in ‘Social and Cognitive Health’ and

required students to be actively involved as part of a team, problem solve with limited supplies provided, and interact in groups they may not typically socialize with. It was a fun activity with some creative designs

produced!

Well done to all students involved for their enthusiastic participation.

GLEESON’S SONG CONTEST > The Almost Eurovision Experience!

An excited group of Stage 2 Visual Arts and Food and Hospitality students and staff ventured interstate to immerse themselves in the amazing art, food and architecture that Melbourne has to offer at this year’s Visual Arts and Food and Hospitality Cultural Trip.

On Thursday 5 July, 27 students and three staff members set off for Melbourne to experience the rich visual offerings at various prestigious art/design institutions, as well as indulge in leading food trends. This trip gave students opportunities to nurture their understanding and appreciation of the diverse art and food culture that a city the size of Melbourne has.

Our first day consisted of exploring the city of Melbourne and its awe-inspiring architecture. We came across many public art works within the CBD, displaying creative use of public space. That evening we shared our first main meal together at a traditional Italian restaurant and finished with dessert at Messina Ice-Cream, known for their unique flavour combinations.

Day 2 started with a guided tour of the Queen Victorian Markets. We experienced the beautiful Art Nouveau décor of the markets, still in their original form, and tasted artesian food from market holders. We found it interesting to learn that part of the market was built over a cemetery. We then took part in a cooking class at Mamma Relish Cooking School, experiencing and learning cooking techniques and methods from a variety of cultures. Students prepared a banquet of Mexican, Japanese and Italian food, which was then shared by the group. To end a food filled day, we experienced arts culture by attending the musical ‘The Wizard of Oz’ at the majestic Regent Theatre. The performance was wonderful and for some students it was the first time they experienced a musical performance.

Day 3 consisted of gallery visits, which inspired the students to further develop their own work for their Stage 2 Visual Arts Studies projects. These visits consisted of:• The Melbourne Museum to view

the Melbourne’s VCE Year 12 Design work.

• Ian Potter Gallery at Federation Square to view the VCE Year 12 Top Art Show, which is the equivalent to our SACE Art Show.

• The National Gallery of Victoria.• Hosier Lane - Public graffiti art,

including the opportunity to see a street artist producing his own unique piece first hand.

A visit to Melbourne would not be complete without seeing an AFL football game. On our last night we rugged up and ventured to Etihad Stadium to watch Hawthorn versus Richmond. Our final day consisted of a very late breakfast and experiencing

more Melbourne sightseeing and culture (and some shopping!).

Many memories were made and the experience gained in this diverse cultural and artistic city will never be forgotten. A big thank you goes to all the students who behaved impeccably and were a credit to Gleeson College.

2018 MELBOURNE VISUAL ARTS + FOOD & HOSPITALITY CULTURAL TRIP

2018 MELBOURNE VISUAL ARTS + FOOD & HOSPITALITY CULTURAL TRIP

“During the Melbourne Trip I enjoyed Hosier Lane, and the art galleries and museum we visited. I had an amazing

cultural experience that taught me about art and I was inspired for my assignments

this year. It was amazing to experience this trip with my friends and the amazing

teachers.”- Erica Ferraresso (12 FSRUT)

“The musical ‘The Wizard of Oz’ was the highlight of the trip for me. The show

was outstanding and hearing the lovely voices, comical dialogue, amazing visual effects and outstanding dance numbers in the Regent Theatre made it that much more enjoyable. I also enjoyed the footy

game at Etihad; being up close was amazing.”

- Nicholas Centofanti (12 DSHUT)

2018 MELBOURNE VISUAL ARTS + FOOD & HOSPITALITY CULTURAL TRIP“I really enjoyed the trip to the museum

where I got to see Victoria’s Year 12 Design work – this really opened up my eyes to the standards of Melbourne Art

and Design students!”- Trent Wallace (12 MSSPI)

“The Melbourne Trip was very beneficial for me because prior to the trip I was

struggling with ideas for my folios/final and seeing the art work in Melbourne

gave me inspiration!” - Macy Allen (12 DSPOS)

“I was able to learn a lot through the visual aspects of Melbourne - the city is

full of modern art work and creativity. It is structured a lot different to Adelaide with

not as much greenery in the city area as we have. It was interesting for me to walk in a different city environment for a

few days!”- Alison Kisielicki (12 HSDAW)

“I loved the cooking class with Mamma Relish and seeing the Year 12 VCE

artwork which gave me inspiration. I enjoyed walking the city streets of

Melbourne and spending a great time with my friends.”

- Chelsea Tonkin (12 DSHUT)“I learnt how to make gnocchi and

pizza from scratch at the Mamma Relish Cooking Class and I learnt more about our Australian history at the Museum. I also really enjoyed the footy, shopping

and the company! It was a brilliant experience!”

- Anthony Terranova (12 MSSPI)

Showing respects for your senior is a virtue in Japan. At a meal, you wait for your senior (or boss) to make a toast. When they says cheers, you repeat the phrase to make a toast

with one hand holding the glass and the other touching the bottom of the glass.

In Italy, there are two ways to say “cheers” - “Saluti” in an informal situation, or ina more formal setting, “Cin cin” is sometimes used.

LANGUAGE FUN FACTS > “Cheers!”Italian: “Saluti!” or “Cin cin!” Japanese: “Kanpai!”

Expressions of Interest >JAPAN CULTURAL EXCHANGE 2019

Gleeson College is proud to be able to offer our students a wide variety of extra-curricular activities and events, and we are pleased to inform you we are in the process of planning

an overseas Japan trip for our 2019 Year 10-11 students studying Japanese. At this stage the proposed date is

approximately 15 days in September. We are awaiting final dates based on quotes from our Travel Agent, as the Rugby

World Cup begins in Japan on the 20th of September, and we are unsure of how this will affect the viability (and cost) of the trip yet. If this trip does occur during school term,

students are expected to be organised and complete any assignments due prior to departure, and use the school holidays to catch up on work missed.

The cultural exchange is the most important learning experience for a student passionate about Japanese, offering an invaluable, incredible immersion in Japanese culture. They also get the opportunity to homestay with a Japanese family of our sister school Kogakuin (located in Hachioji, just out of Tokyo) for a few nights, and take part in a range of cultural and sports activities with the local students. Our students often find the trip accelerates their skill and understanding of Japanese language, plus they create memories, friendships and experiences they remember for the rest of their lives. I was lucky enough to go on two such exchanges at High School, and to this day 13 years later I am still in touch with my

host family, and visit them whenever I return to Japan.

The initial estimated cost for the trip will be approximately $4000 for all expenses such as travel, accommodation, included activities and transport. Personal shopping will be at additional cost. At this stage the trip is tentative, depending

on levels of interest received and subsequent College Board approval.

If you would like to register your interest and/or like more information, please email me as soon as possibleat: [email protected]

Mr Tom Dawson,Languages and Cultural Exchange Programs Coordinator

We are very lucky to have our Account Manager from GET Educational Tours in Adelaide and available to come out and speak with us in Week 3. The main presentation will commence at 5.30pm.• The trip is open to students continuing with Japanese in 2019 * Current Year 10 students who are not

continuing with Japanese next year may still register their interest to fill a ‘reserve’ list, and are encouraged to attend our Information Night.

• The trip will be approx. a 15-day tour around Japan (Term 3, Weeks 6-8 tbc), including a four-day homestay with our sister school in Hachioji, Tokyo.

GLEESON TRANSITION DAY> Year 7 + Year 8 2019

We held our first Transition Day for 190 students entering Year 7 and Year 8 at Gleeson College in

2019 on Thursday 26 July.

Our youngest GC Commuity members enjoyed participating in ‘get-to-know-you’ and ‘get-to-know-us’ activities, including learning all about

the history of the College and our Patron, Archbishop James Gleeson. Current Middle School Students assisted on the day, leading

College Tours and answering questions from our young visitors. We thank all students involved for their valued leadership and contribution to the success of this first Transition Day. Well done!

YEAR 8 PHYSICAL EDUCATION > ‘Cultural Dance’ Unit

Year 8 Physical Education students are currently enjoying

the challenge of learning new ‘old school’ dance moves in their

‘Cultural Dance’ unit.Students were ably led by the

amazingly talented dance duo of Mr Bertram and Mrs Busbridge (with brief cameo performances

by Mr Schoenmakers!), and learnt the ‘Progressive Jive’ last week.After a few nervous practices,

the students nailed it! Well done to all Year 8s for their positive

participation!

CERT. III FITNESS STUDENTS GAIN REAL-LIFE EXPERIENCE IN THE GYMStudents in our Certificate III Fitness

Class took the opportunity to join me at Goodlife Health Clubs (Adelaide City) during the recent July School

Holidays. This allowed the chance for them to gain hands-on experience in a gym environment and consolidate their knowledge from the theory covered in

Semester 1.

Students were able to use the real-life gym setting to practice writing and

demonstrating exercise programs to prospective “clients”, as well as coach and correct exercise technique. They also performed routine maintenance, WHS and housekeeping tasks such

as testing emergency stops on cardio machines and checking all weights

equipment was functioning correctly. Learning and practicing skills in a real-life work environment is a unique aspect of Vocational Education and Training, and

will greatly assist students if they choose to pursue employment in the Fitness

industry in the future. Other Cert III Fitness students also attended gyms such as Fernwood, ARC Leisure Campbelltown

and Snap Fitness to complete Work Experience hours in the holiday break.

Certificate III Fitness is an option for students in 2019 - Please see Ms Russo ASAP if you are considering this option.

Mr Tom Dawson,Certificate III in Fitness Teacher

Twilight Soccer returned in Term 3 with the Round 10 fixture seeing us up against Immanuel College for the first

time this season (Jul 25).

A youthful side was named to face Immanuel, including two Year 8 and three Year 9 students selected in the squad. The game was to provide an opportunity for development and to allow the younger players the

opportunity to showcase their abilities at the highest level. The young

squad were understandably a little nervous and started the contest a

little hesitantly which saw us concede early to a goal from a long, through

ball. The boys were able to work their way back in to the game and Thomas Ayre (11 FSRUT) was starting to look dangerous in and around the box. A free kick earned on the edge of the area allowed Ayre the opportunity to strike on goal, and although his

YOUNG TSL FIRST XI SEAL COMEBACK 4-3 WIN OVER IMMANUELshot was well saved, the rebound fell to

Tyson Ballentine (9 DMDAS) who finished from close range. With the game back at

1-1 the contest began to open up and we were able to generate a few more chances, but were unable to convert. Unfortunately, just before half time we

were unable to clear our lines inside our defensive penalty area and Immanuel

were able to capitalise, which saw us 2-1 down at half time.

After the break we struggled to gain momentum back and this saw us

concede a goal from a cross, putting us 3-1 down. Immanuel, seemingly

comfortable with their 3-1 lead, sat back and allowed us to play our way back into

the game. Some good ball movement and attacking play saw us create several chances, but we could not convert. Ayre continued to battle away and was able

to earn another free kick on the edge of the area. This time he was able to strike cleanly past the keeper into the bottom LH corner to bring some hope back to

Gleeson.

The momentum had begun to shift and the boys could sense the opportunity

to go for more goals. We continued to place a lot of pressure on the Immanuel

defenders and midfielders Ballentine and Liam Doolin (10 DSHUT) were

looking dangerous around the edge of the box with several shots from the

edge of the area just veering wide. Ballentine kept trying to create chances

and was eventually rewarded when he was able to break past the line of defenders and equalise with a low

finish to make it 3-3.

With less than five minutes of play left, we continued to heap pressure on the opposition as James Barton (10 FSMIL)

and Michael Gela (11 FSRUT) kept running at the defence and creating plenty of attacking threat. With only

minutes to go Gela was able to dribble into the box and finish low past the

keeper to score the winner for Gleeson! This 4-3 win against Immanuel was a

remarkable ‘come-from-behind’ victory and the performance of our young

players truly showed a lot of character. The performances of many of these

youngsters demonstrated the potential in the next wave of players, and that

given the chance, they can step up and do the job required at this level.

Mr Clint Vause,First XI TSL Coach

GC OPEN BOYS KO AFL FOOTBALL > Gallant Effort in Semi Finals

On Monday, the Gleeson College Open Boys Knockout Football Team played in the Semi Finals of SSSSA

Statewide Competition held atSeaton High School.

Seaton High School and Clare High School were our opponents for the

day, with our first game against Seaton HS. We started very strongly and

continued this form throughout the game to run away with a comfortable 27-point win. However, our second

game was a much tighter affair, with a robust Clare HS side having a number of taller players. We started extremely

well, heading into half time with a three-goal lead. A dominant 3rd

quarter allowed Clare to take the lead, and they maintained this advantage to win the game by 9 points at final siren.

Unfortunately, this means our Open Boys are out of the competition for 2018. The boys should be proud of their efforts, making it to the Semi

Finals, and representing the College with pride and great sportsmanship.

GC OPEN GIRLS KO BASKETBALL > Gleeson v Avenues in Round 2

The Gleeson Open Girls KO Basketball Team played in the second round of the Statewide Competition against

Avenues College at Avenues on Tuesday.

With ‘talls’ Abby Lowman (10 MSCOD) and Jade Halfpenny (11 FSMIL)

sidelined due to injury, this provided an opportunity for other players to

step up. The game was well contested, with Ella Dalton (11 HSPLL) scoring two quick baskets just before the

quarter time siren to level the scores. Jana Ivancic (10 HSRAN) provided a solid all-round effort throughout the

game, maintaining defensive pressure on their best player and creating options in attack. Unfortunately,

poor shooting from the field and an inability to consistently create second

opportunities through offensive rebounds, resulted in Avenues having

the upper hand.

Even though we were not victorious at the final whistle (42-22), I would like to commend all of the girls for their sportsmanship, enthusiasm

and willingness to participate in the competition this year. Also, a big thank

you to Year 11 students Scott Jacka and Joshua Brougham for their support

as Assistant Coach and Team Scorer.
