Principal

School Size In my first year at the School the importance that the School places on relationships between staff and students has been very easy to witness. Cathedral is a school where collaboration between staff and students is both very normal and highly rewarding for all parties involved. This type of behaviour can be seen across all age groups and activities, and rarely a week passes when I don’t hear an example of students and staff working together to achieve a shared aim.

Importantly, behind the scenes in almost all of these cases are supportive parents who can see the value in their children’s involvement in both curricular and cocurricular activities.

While credit for the success of these relationships needs to be shared by all members of the school community whose hard work, generosity, and positive attitude have contributed to the common goal, I firmly believe that our school size and capped student numbers are a very strong precursor to the success of the strong community feeling here at Cathedral. The School Board members have made the decision to restrict our class sizes to 25 students across all areas of the school, with only 3 streams in each of the year levels Pre-Prep to Year 7, and 5 streams from Year 8 to Year 12. These small class sizes make The Cathedral School one of the most sought after and highly resourced schools in North Queensland, as well as allowing teaching staff to get to know the vast majority of students in their area of the school quite easily. Students who feel known and valued are always more likely to succeed than those who feel anonymous and unnoticed.

While the School will have 1300 students at its full capacity, I do not believe that the quality of the learning or staff/student relationships will be affected in a negative way. If anything, the extra financial resources that would become available at this capacity would enable us to employ further specialist staff and run more programs to meet our student’s ever expanding educational needs.

School Results School families past and present should be delighted to hear of the successes of our 2009 graduating class. The Year 12 class of 2009 is to be congratulated for their outstanding achievements! We are very proud of them and the varied pathways they pursued whilst at school that have led to many exciting courses and job opportunities in 2010.

We congratulate our 2009 Dux Dominic Torrisi as well as Rachael Boles and Cornea Pretorius for achieving an OP 1. Dominic has been accepted into an advanced Bachelor of Science at James Cook University and Rachael and Cornea have been accepted into a Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery. Of the 80 OP eligible students in 2009, 84% received an OP from 1 – 15 compared with the state average of 73.15%. Well done! The vast majority of students who applied for tertiary study received their first preference and our graduates are now taking up places at several Queensland universities (JCU, UQ, Griffith, Bond) as well as universities in other states of Australia and overseas. Quite a few students have decided to defer study as they are on student exchange overseas or enjoying one of the many types of gap years now available.

We also had outstanding results for those students who chose the ranking pathway last year. In 2009 we had 24 students in Year 11 and 12 beginning or completing a Certificate II, III or IV in a wide range of areas and 20 students in Years 11 and 12 beginning or completing a traineeship or apprenticeship combined with school based study. Several of the Year 12 graduates from this group have been accepted into university using selection ranks and others have moved on to securing full time apprenticeships in a variety of different trades as a result of their school based studies. Congratulations to these students on these excellent outcomes.

YOU CAN DO IT! PROGRAM Junior School students have continued to build emotional resilience through our You Can Do It! Program. This program aims to foster emotional resilience in children by teaching them about the five main foundations of the program – confidence, organisation, persistence, getting along and resilience. Currently, all classes in the Junior School (PP to Year 6 – including the ELC PP class) are focusing on Confidence. Students are learning to define confidence and to recognise what it looks like. Common examples of confident behaviour in students include: • Trying something new or ‘having a go’; • Talking with a strong voice; • Trying to do something hard without asking the teacher or parent for help; • Answering a difficult question asked by the teacher; • Asking to play with others; • Expressing an opinion that might not be popular.

After the school holidays, students will begin a focus on Getting Along – a skill that both adults and children should take time to learn about!

The Building Education Revolution

Hits Cathedral Junior School After 6 months of jack hammers, nail guns, sawing, sweat, blood and tears, our new Year 5/6 classroom block opened at the beginning of the 2010 school year to the delight of both staff and students.

These five classrooms form half of our new $3 million classroom block which will also include a new library.

The final stage of this project is our new Junior School library which will be open to students and staff at the beginning of Term Two. The new library hosts its own classroom which will be equipped with 25 computers around the outside of it as well as a SmartBoard for use by the teacher-librarian and staff. In addition to this the library also has a staff resource room, picture book area and an additional computer/AV area.

We are all very excited about these new buildings (and the buildings to come!) in the Junior School and hope parents are able to take the time to have a look at them themselves.

World Wetlands Day

Students from The Cathedral School, a Townsville Reef Guardian School, used their very own wetland on their school grounds to learn about the important role wetlands play in protecting the Great Barrier Reef.

Coinciding with World Wetlands Day 2 February 2010, the students from Mrs Wunsch’s Year 9 Investigations Class took part in a range of educational environmental activities.

The activities were supported by the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority and NQ Dry Tropics, which included testing water quality and designing posters to encourage the community to care for the environment.

Hats

for Haiti As we all know, a devastating earthquake occurred on Tuesday 12 January in the poorest country in the western hemisphere, the island community of Haiti. Besides the enormous number of deaths, the earthquake has left over three million people struggling to survive, due to a severe lack of fresh water, food, and shelter.

Thinking of ways to assist with relief efforts, Middle School leaders came up with a fundraising idea to hold a “Hats for Haiti” Free Dress Day on Friday 5 February.

Middle School students and staff came dressed in a favourite or wacky hat for the cost of a gold coin donation. A sausage sizzle was also held on the day to maximise donation takings.

In all almost $1,500.00 was raised and has been donated to World Vision who is providing relief to the earthquake devastated country.

WHO DID IT? Chris Reinbott, Year 11 Reports Mr Vollugi was the well mannered fun, school counsellor that everybody loved. But, would someone dislike Mr Vollugi so much that they were capable of committing murder? Yes MURDER. Mr Vollugi was found dead by the Year 11 Multi-Strand Science class under the direction of Senior Detective Miss Armitage at 8.45am on Friday 19 February 2010.

The class busily started to take photographs and evidence lists along with sketches of the area and copies of the notes found by possible suspects. He was declared deceased at 5.30 – 6.00pm on the 18 February 2010 by a 3cm wound to the back that pierced his heart. His stomach contents were discovered to contain two ibuprofen tablets and a chicken and cheese toasted sandwich on wholegrain bread, yes that was WHOLEGRAIN bread. Anyway onto a serious note, the class narrowed the suspects down to nine. The suspects include our very own Senior Detective Miss Armitage, Mrs Wunsch, Mr Carman, Mrs Burkitt, Mr Gamack, Mrs Newman, Mr Frost, Miss Wenta and Miss Korlaki. The Year 11 Multi-Strand Science class is studying forensics and part of our assessment is to investigate the staged death of Mr Vollugi. Stay tuned for the answer.

PLEASE READ THE DISCLAIMER BEFORE CONTINUING Disclaimer:This was a mock crime and Mr Vollugi is still alive.The Year 11 Multi-Strand class has been studying forensics over the past 5 weeks and these skills came in handy when we found a mock crime scene. I Repeat, Mr Vollugi is still alive.

How our body works?

Over Term 1, 3S and 2/3U have been investigating “How our body works”. To help us gain a better understanding of our body, we have been conducting some hands-on experiments.

The first experiment involved Lamb Brains; they felt mushy and were a pinky/grey colour. We also made different types of animal brains using play dough. We had to shape the play dough, weigh it and measure the length to make sure our models looked realistic.

Next we investigated ox tongues, they felt very rough. We also did a taste test to identify where the tongue tastes different foods. The tip of the tongue is where sweet foods are tasted and bitter foods are tasted at the back of the tongue.

We also investigated the heart using some cow hearts. They were very muscular and a little smelly. We learnt that the heart is responsible for circulating our blood all around our bodies.

We can’t wait to see what Mrs Scott and Mrs Unamuno have planned for us next term!

STAFF PROFILE - DIRECTOR OF BOARDING

Mr Jock Walker-Campbell

Jock, his wife Jeanie and two children, daughter Caroline, Year 11 and son Raymond, Year 5 have settled in at The Cathedral School extremely well.

Jock joins the staff as the Director of Boarding with over 9 year’s experience in managing school dormitories all around Australia.

Having spent each year of his scholastic life as a boarding student from Year 1, Jock has a huge level of empathy and understanding for our boarders and their challenges during the school year.

What do you like most about The Cathedral School?

What strikes both my wife who is also on staff here, and myself – is the outstanding quality of students we have here. They may at times go a little astray – as students can, but in most cases they are quick to learn and apologise. Similarly, I have never had so many conversation snippets that begin with a sincere “How is your day going Sir?” Where is the most interesting place you have worked?

National Service in the South African Airforce was a wild experience! Not sure if it qualifies as interesting though? I have worked for a short spell on a huge Feedlot running 60000 cattle and 100000 sheep – that was very interesting – for agricultural minds. I also spent a while in the gold mines working 3km below the surface – vertical shaft. That was very interesting - high production pressure, high accident risk, very labour intensive & very, very hot and humid.

What was your favourite subject at school?

Holidays (I was a Boarder) Have you got an interesting fact about boarding life at The Cathedral School?

Having experienced a number of boarding schools both in Australia and in South Africa – Cathedral boarders are definitely among those with the most opportunities and freedom to access outside sport and activities of their choosing. However this obviously requires a little more paper communication between parents and our Boarding Office.

Staff Profile – Group Leader, Junior Kindy

Ms Lily Rowe Ms Lily Rowe is originally from Papua New Guinea now a citizen of this great country. She was married and blessed with three beautiful children who are now her best friends. Lily has worked with children in Papua New Guinea, Fiji and Australia and loves what she does. Lily has joined the team at the Early Learning Centre as the Group Leader in the Junior Kindy room.

Year 7 & 12 Buddies The buddy system at Cathedral is a very significant part of our school culture. Each of our Year 7s is teamed up with a student from Year 12 from the same house on the very first day of school. We Year 12s look forward to the prospect of mentoring one of the Year 7s and helping to ease the transition into Middle School. Brigitte Mullen, School Captain.

Riley Brereton, (Year 7) from Bede House who came from Mundingburra State School, knew Arjun Nair before he started at Cathedral and was pleased that he could choose Arjun as his buddy. “I feel very comfortable walking through the Senior School on my way to the library. Arjun has introduced me to some of his friends and they all say hello. I know that if I needed support or advice, Arjun would be one of the people at school I would go to for advice.”

‘I enjoy having Riley as my buddy.” Arjun reported. “I don’t see him every day but often catch up with him at House Meetings and I just ask him how he is going and encourage him to become involved in some of the extracurricular activities available at school.

He’s a good kid.”

Swimming Carnivals

House spirit was thick in the air, war cries were as loud as ever and each team was rearing to race as the annual swimming carnivals took place in the last week of February.

This year’s winners were: Junior School - Langton Middle School - Bede Senior School - More Students at all three carnivals are to be commended for their efforts. Many thanks to the staff for officiating and to the P&F for providing delicious food and drinks.

Over the weekend of 19 - 21 February, the Middle School Vocal Ensemble (MSVE) went to Paluma for a weekend of singing. Our conductor was Réka Csernyik. She taught us so many wonderful new skills and we all had a fantastic time with her. She encouraged us to put meaning into our singing and to get into the mood of the song.

Réka is a lecturer at the University of Queensland, in aural skills and conducting. She taught Miss Slager in university, and was also her conductor in a choir. Réka taught us songs in her native language, Hungarian. We also learnt songs in Latin and Italian.

We were accompanied by several of our fabulous teachers: Mrs Orr, Mr Lowrie, Mrs Reid, Réka’s husband Krisztian, for part of the time, Mr McGrath, and of course our fantazmogorigal conductor Miss Slager. For some of our pieces, all our teachers accompanied us with their singing.

Everyone made heaps of friends, and got to know each other really well. Everyone in MSVE would love to thank the Gumburu staff, especially the cook, our wonderful teachers, and of course, Réka.

The Cathedral School R owers off to an

“Oarsome”start in 2010

It all started with the Open NSW State Rowing Championships, held in February, where The Cathedral School won a whopping 7 medals: 3 Gold, 2 Silver and 2 Bronze; the school’s best ever result at a National Regatta.

The students have been training very hard since September with 12 sessions per week under the supervision of Head Coach Mr Stephen Muhlenberg.

It then followed with the win of 2 Silver medals at the National Rowing Championships in March. The students from Years 10, 11 and 12 raced at the week long competition at the Lake Nagambi course in Victoria where over 600 competitors including schools and rowing clubs from all over Australia competed.

The group of students have been very dedicated to be able to balance their school work and training commitments and have become high achievers in both areas of their school life. We are very proud of them.

Years of Clean Up

Over 300 students, staff, friends and family of The Cathedral School took part in Clean Up Australia Day on Sunday 7 March at Rossiter Park, Aitkenvale.

This year marked the 20th national anniversary of Clean Up Australia Day as well as 20 years since the school first became involved in the program.

Dean of Students (Middle School) and Clean Up Australia Day organiser Mrs Barbara Lansbury said “It was great to see how committed the students and school community were, giving up their Sunday morning sleep in to be a part of such an important cause.”

President’s Report PAST STUDENTS ASSOCIATION We look towards a great year and have many wonderful memories of the year just past. It was lovely to see all our students receiving their awards at the end of the year. There were so many happy faces and proud parents, congratulations to you all.

The Class of 2009 were awesome at their Formal, they arrived in style and looked fabulous on stage to accept their life membership and badge to the Past Students Association. We’ll be seeing more of them in the future and we wish them all the best. We were all surprised and touched seeing their tiny hand prints on a quilt made in Year 3. The evening was filled with much laughter and dancing from everyone. A night to remember.

Congratulations to Joshua Pollock who is our 2010 Past Student Scholarship recipient and we welcome Joshua to our committee. We have many activities planned for the year and will be working together with the school.

I’m from the Class of 1980 and we are celebrating our 30th Reunion on our Foundation Weekend 16th – 18th July 2010. The school is also celebrating 30 years of boys in the senior school so we are celebrating in style and welcome everyone to attend our functions.

For all our class mates that were at the school any time from grade 8 in 1976 to grade 12 in 1980, you are all invited to celebrate with us.

To all our Past Students, keep in touch and drop us a line telling us a little about your life.

A short line from me: “My husband, Roland & I celebrated our 25th Anniversary in December. We celebrated with close friends by renewing our vows on top of Hervey’s Range, overlooking Townsville. My girlfriend, another past student, Margie O’Hara was our marriage celebrant and we all had such a beautiful day.”

Celebrating 30 Years of Boys Thirty years ago, the school’s first lay Principal, Neil Tucker, wrote this in the Dawn magazine:

Since its foundation in 1917, St Anne’s has justly deserved its academic and artistic record, its reputation for standards of conduct and dress, the recognition that it is a community which cares, and that it is a school which produces responsible young women.

1980 will bring one important change – the introduction of boys – initially in small numbers, into the Secondary School. No decision such as this is ever taken lightly. It will broaden and deepen the quality of life at the school, not demean it.

‘The Cathedral School of St Anne & St James’ will be a richer place. The School is about to embark on a new era of educating ‘young ladies’ but it will also be educating ‘young men’.

Nine brave boys began in the secondary school in January 1980, and this number grew steadily over following years. Boys’ boarding was introduced and the new Akins Dormitory was opened in 1988.

Gradually the curriculum and range of extracurricular activities broadened to cater for the boys’ interests and abilities, and slowly but surely the school culture adapted to embrace the full co-educational experience.

Today there are roughly equal numbers of boys and girls in all grades, the school has successfully maintained its values and culture, and it is certainly a richer place. We have much cause to be thankful to the school’s leaders who have made the difficult decisions to bring us to this point in our history.

MOW SISTERS VISIT In January, the school was visited by the Mow sisters – Willma (73-78), Therea (70-78) and Kaylene(70-78). The girls were raised by the Sisters of the Sacred Advent and started at St Anne’s at a very young age, first in White House and then Hohenhouse dormitory.

The sisters left St Anne’s in 1978 to move to St Margaret’s in Brisbane with Sister Chaseley and Sister Eunice. It was wonderful to see them again after such a long time and to catch up on what had been happening in their lives.

Willma, Therea and Kaylene spent the afternoon going through Dawn magazines, touring the school grounds and reminiscing over their years here.

If you would like to contact any of the ladies please email Kaylene at kj.atkinson@hotmail.com.

Reflections Brad May Class

How can it honestly be 30 years since I first walked into what we now call the Green Hall?

This was the first room I was directed into to collect my stationery for my first day as a Year 8 boy student. I have never forgotten the smell of so much stationery. The smell of a sharpened lead pencil still to this day takes me back to this very moment.

There definitely weren’t too many of us in those days. Probably a ratio of 1:15 per girl and in the older grades it thinned out to nothing. So we 10

THE CONNECTION

were treated pretty special and given our own common room which was the former teachers’ staff room. Of course boys being boys - found out that they had not disconnected the system and were making of 1985 PA all manner of bodily sounds to charm the school population with. To no surprise, we lost our special place and were put out with the masses of girls under those beautiful rain trees. Thinking back now, that does not seem quite as bad as first thought.

I think us boys must have arrived unexpectedly early though for some of the subject planners.

Home Economics and Typing were compulsory curriculum subjects. However thinking now, they are probably the two skills I use the most … who would have figured?

However, Chris Neilsen, another boy pioneer who wasn’t quite so forgiving with the girly nature of the current curriculum, organised a tech work shop class to be set up by the qualified school handyman and Neil Tucker the then school Principal. Heh! No more cakes and hand embroidered baby cushions.

Getting back to those rain trees ... that was our social hot spot where I’m sure we spent too much time romanticising rather than researching.

After a few years I think us boys just blended into the general population and were probably just considered a part of the furniture. You can only be a shiny new toy for so long!

I loved my time as being one of the first boy pioneers of The Cathedral School. It has had a major impact on me being who I am today. I am very proud of the connection I have had, and still have, with our school.

Cathedral on Facebook The Cathedral School has joined the social networking revolution and created their own facebook ‘group’ – The Cathedral School, Townsville. At the time of writing the group had over 800 members. The members of the group include past students, current students, past staff members, current staff members, past parents and current parents. There are several other Cathedral groups on facebook that have been established by students e.g. The Cathedral School Formal 2009.

We have found having this group an invaluable way of reaching past students as it is possible, with just the click of a mouse, to message all members of the group at once. In the last twelve months we have posted messages advising members of the Past Students’ Reunion that is held in July each year, the five year reunion held each December, and recently, the special barbecue that we are hosting to celebrate 30 years of boys in the secondary school. Every time we put a message on facebook we receive a flood of replies from past students out there in cyberland who want to ‘touch base’ with their old school. We love hearing about where our past students live and what they are doing with their lives.

Using facebook is especially valuable for reaching recent past students as demographically, this is the generation most likely to be using social networking sites. But we would love all past students to go on to facebook and join our group. If you do you can look at the old school photos that have been put on and see if can find yourself, follow the blog about which graduating class was the ‘coolest’ and vote for your favourite teacher. Mr Cuttell is still winning!
