Dear Members of the St Patrick’s Family, At St. Patrick’s College, the presence of the Christian Brothers has been an integral part of the College’s history since it began in 1952. Edmund Rice established the order of the Christian Brothers in Ireland over 200 years ago. Since this time thousands and thousands of people throughout the world have benefited from the legacy left by Edmund Rice and the Christian Brothers. Today the College celebrated the feast day of Edmund Rice with a full school liturgy. It was a special liturgy for our Community as we gave thanks to Edmund Rice, the Christian Brothers and those who continue to live Edmund’s dream today. As part of the liturgy I presented certificates to the staff who have given 20 years or more to Edmund Rice schools. The recipients were as follows-:     Mr Ray Celegato Mr Chris Campbell Mr David Gardiner Mr Steve Tilyard Br Chris Pritchard Br Col Fitzgerald Ms Heather Kopp Mr Dan Reid Mrs Sandra Fowlie Mr Patrick Bourke Mr Michael Bramwell Mr Lee Dowling Mr Stephen Graham Ms Judy Kelly Mrs Avril Perkins Mr Geoff Samuels Mrs Jan Thompson Ms Nicole Draisey-Wellings Mr Kevin Van Der Weide Mrs Anne-Maree Bliss Their contribution over the years has been significant and I take this opportunity to thank them for their valuable contributions over many years. Thankyou and well done. Another part of the liturgy was to present a number of Year 12 students with their House Leaders badges. As part of the leadership program at St. Patrick’s College, Year 12 students who have displayed outstanding leadership during Term 1 can be nominated for a House Leadership role. I congratulate the following students for their appointment as a House Leader for 2011. Joshua Parry Coffey House Leader Nathaniel Trappett Mooney House Leader Wyatt Bailey O’Rourke House Leader Douglas Howieson Rice House Leader Jordan Budgen Rice House Leader

Aidan Molloy Ryan House Leader Congratulations to these young men. This week sees the beginning of the AIC Rugby, Soccer and Chess seasons. As part of the 2011 launch a Spirit Assembly was conducted today. At the assembly the players in the First V Chess, First X1 Soccer and First XV Rugby were presented. The captains of each of these sports were also presented. I congratulate the following students for their appointment as captain of their respective sports for 2011. Captain of Chess Samuel Wright Captain of Soccer Mitchell Taylor Captain of Rugby Giles Beveridge This week also saw the first mass conducted in the new College Chapel. Approximately 70 staff, students and parents joined Fr Liam in this special celebration. It was also special because the Chapel has been named “The Father Liam Chapel” and to have Fr Liam celebrate this Mass was a significant occasion for St. Patrick’s College. Fr Liam celebrates mass each Tuesday morning at 8am. All parents and welcome. Finally this week I wish all of the Mothers in our Community a Happy Mothers Day on Sunday. Thankyou for the outstanding work you do and the unconditional love you give to your sons. “Happy Mothers Day”. God Bless

The Interhouse Cross Country Carnival was held today, 5 May. This is the next major Interhouse event and we expect every student to attend and participate. It is a Special Event Day and hence students absent will require a medical certificate to explain their absence. The Cross Country course can be run/walked by students of all fitness levels. All students will come to school dressed in their full correct sports uniform. The day will commence with the Blessed Edmund Rice Liturgy. At 11.00am students will gather in their house area and then walk down to Curlew Park under teacher

supervision. Buses will run as normal but will depart from Curlew Park at the conclusion of the Cross Country which is normal school time. All sport training will commence at the conclusion of the carnival Camps – The Year 9 camp will take place week 4 from Monday to Friday. Please ensure your son has all the required items on the ‘What to bring’ list, including plenty of warm clothing. All Year 9 students who have not returned their camp forms must do so by Monday next week.

Uniform – Please ensure your son’s uniform includes a top button on his grey shirt. The top button needs to be done up and his tie needs to be worn correctly. Appearance and pride are important aspects of a young man. All Year 10, 11 and 12 students are to have a College Blazer as part of the winter uniform. Immunization will occur on Tuesday 25 May, for Year 8 students who have handed in their permission forms.

STUDIES

Mrs Dionne Tually—Science/Mathematics Years 7-9

Mathematics Department The NAPLAN tests for 2011 will be held on Tuesday 10, Wednesday 11 and Thursday 12 May. Naplan Preparation: NAPLAN is the acronym for National Assessment Program – Literacy and Numeracy. These are National tests administered to every student in Years 3, 5, 7, 9. The best preparation students do for the NAPLAN test is to follow the teacher and the curriculum throughout the term and leading up to the tests, as the tests reflect the core elements of what has been taught in class at St Patrick’s College. The curriculum of the school exposes students to all of the concepts needed to achieve well. Teachers plan learning experiences for the students that will provide opportunity to develop knowledge and understanding of the concepts. Students use their skills in class to demonstrate their knowledge and understanding of concepts. Teachers refine learning experiences to suit the needs of the students when they are experiencing success or difficulties. In Mathematics, the tests are designed as follows: Test 1 Number Non Calculator – knowledge and use of concepts in number, patterns and algebra, measurement, space, chance and data Test 2 Number Calculator (Years 7 & 9

only) – knowledge and use of solving multi-step questions requiring more thought processing Test practice involves students completing examples of previous tests or sample tests for the purpose of familiarising them with test instructions and common forms of questions. Students have been supplied with booklets containing samples of the past 3 years Naplan tests. Teachers routinely prepare students for testing including, as appropriate, practice on sample tests. Adequate preparation ensures that students feel comfortable in the testing environment and are able to confidently demonstrate what they know and can do. A suggested time line in which to complete the tests will be discussed with the students’ classroom teacher. An electronic method of students responding to the practice tests has been devised and is available on the student intranet. Students have been advised as to how to access this facility. This will be marked by the classroom teacher and difficulties identified will be discussed within allocated classtime. Parents can assist at home in the following ways: Talk about the test with your child Develop your child’s confidence by encouraging them to try their best. Talk about test taking skills – answer easiest questions first, highlight sections of texts, mark questions to come back to, work must be done independently, have a go

Encourage students to use their time now to prepare. Relate test taking skills to real life situations.

NUMBER • Incorporate numeracy and the 5

strands into everyday activities Number – number facts and counting Space – where can different shapes be seen Patterns and Algebra – what is missing from the equation Measurement – talk about different methods of measuring Chance and Data – talk about possibilities of things happening

• Count aloud with your child – whole numbers, decimals, dollars, metres, fractions

• Read maths questions with your child and help them understand how and where to start

While doing Maths together Help your child with ……

• reading the whole question before starting

• knowing other words for plus, multiply, divide, minus such as add, product, share, subtract

• using everyday activities that require numeracy concepts

“Just Us Magazine” During Term One of this year teaching staff have put a huge amount of energy and enthusiasm into ensuring that social justice and peace form a significant focus of classroom teaching and learning. A key component of educating for justice and peace is students being

advocates for the poor and marginalised, and the things that we can all do to make a better world for all. As a channel for students to take part in this form of advocacy we have created a student magazine “Just US”. The first ever edition of “Just Us” magazine contains a selection of the outstanding work that students took part in during Term One to make the

world a better place. Please find a few minutes to view or download the magazine from the College website http://www.stpatricks.qld.edu.au/assets/files/news-and-events/Just%20Us.pdf and see the difference we are making in our classrooms. We hope you enjoy.

At the end of last term we celebrate Easter liturgy through song, drama and prayer. It was a moving presentation and the per-formance took the audience on a pilgrimage through the 15 Stations of the Cross. The Year 7 students wrote prayers and recited them as part of the performance. In this prayer they asked for peace and reconciliation. Pope Benedict XVI, in his Easter ad-dress, also called for peace in the world. He said: "May the Lord arouse, in individuals, families and communities, the craving for more and more unity and harmony. Place your strength in the strength of the cross and in the resurrection of Jesus Christ; it's a strength that supports all those who generously work for common good." At the end of last term we also started work on permanent garden beds in front of the Year 5 classrooms. Mr Michael Phillips and his Year 12 Cert 11 Work placement class designed constructed and build the garden beds. They are ready and are await-ing the planting of seedling that will in turn provide the Paddy’s Van with vegetables for stews and soup for homeless people. The Ministry Team is also launching their new program STOP – Serves to other People– next week. Students can sign up for the following events. Please contact the Ministry Office. God bless
