Foreword WE CONGRATULATE YOU ON THE SIGNIFICANT ACHIEVEMENTS WITH THEIR ASSOCIATED JOY AND EXCITEMENT THAT HAVE OCCURRED DURING THE PAST YEAR. Executive Director EREA Mr Wayne Tinsey
Edmund Rice Education Australia embraces 47 Catholic schools in the Edmund Rice tradition in every state and territory of Australia. This network of schools continues to value the extraordinary opportunities afforded to thousands of young people as each of these schools continues to challenge their students to make a difference in their world. This is being achieved through a multiplicity of experiences which are embraced by the four Touchstones of our Charter: Gospel Spirituality, Liberating Education, Inclusive Community and Justice and Solidarity. It is heartening to continually witness faithfulness and passion to our Charter as the varied expressions of these Touchstones are being lived out in our schools.
It is also heartening to acknowledge the continued mission of our 24 Associate Catholic schools in the Edmund Rice tradition who, through their past connections with the Edmund Rice story and the Christian Brothers, have embraced elements on our Charter Touchstones with similar passion and commitment. This combination of school networks enables wonderful opportunities for sharing in the vision and mission of Catholic education throughout all of our Australian states and territories. We congratulate you on the significant achievements with their associated joy and excitement that have occurred during the past year. We also acknowledge the trials and disappointments with the associated sadness that some of our schools have had to bear. We give gratitude
for all of those experiences which have brought you many blessings throughout the year. Your role in Catholic education and Edmund Rice Education Australia is applauded and we offer you our sincere and heartfelt thanks for your contribution to the development of the lives of our young people. We will continue to support your efforts as you endeavour to bring the Gospel to life in ways that are unique in your school community. We offer you our warmest congratulations and sincere thanks for the contribution you have so freely afforded to Catholic education and for your faithfulness in living out our Charter. We continue to offer our support and best wishes to your community for a future that is both challenging and hope-filled.

Principal’s Report WE HAVE A SCHOOL COMMUNITY OF WHICH WE MAY ALL BE JUSTIFIABLY PROUD; I HAVE ENORMOUS RESPECT AND ADMIRATION FOR ITS PAST AND EXCITEMENT FOR ITS FUTURE. Principal Mr Shaun Kenny
This report will refrain from providing a catalogue of the activities and achievements of the College during 2013. Although these have been many, they have been duly recognised as they occurred and have also been faithfully recorded in this yearbook. I’m sure you will be impressed by their number and diversity as you read on. Instead, I would like to talk about three things – CBC Fremantle, family and Finland. Although one of these things may seem an unusual choice for such discussion, this sparsely populated Nordic country has much to teach us about education and social structure. Just prior to the new millennium, members of the OECD and some partner countries decided to conduct what is called PISA testing – the Programme for International Student Assessment. This testing has been conducted every three years since 2000 and our College was randomly selected to participate in 2012. In that year, more than 490,000
15 year-old students from over 70 countries took part. That set of results was released in December this year. In all previous iterations of this testing, Finland has been at or near the top of the rankings. Over the same period, Australia’s performance has been above average but steadily declining. Another significant finding is that Australia has one of the greatest differentials between its top performing group of students and its lowest. Finland has the smallest difference between its most and least able students. So what is it about the country of Finland and its education system which distinguishes it so consistently? Well, it is certainly not the specific training or capacity of its students to sit tests. There are no mandated standardised tests in Finland, apart from one exam at the end of a student’s last year of high school. There are no rankings and no comparisons between students, schools or regions. In fact, they are not particularly proud of their
excellent international classification – one which they replicate in areas such as health and social support. They are actually somewhat bemused by their success. As the Director General of Education in Finland, Pasi Sahlberg, has said, “Equality is the most important word in Finnish education. We prepare children to learn how to learn – not how to take a test.” Compare this attitude with the fixation we have in this country with NAPLAN, MySchool websites, school league tables and public versus private school debates. The January issue of our local newspaper, which contains the How Your School Rates liftout, is among the highest selling issues of the year. This analysis seeks to express complex and meaningful educational outcomes in the form of hard data derived from simplistic and one-dimensional measures. Education should not be defined or interpreted according to business models or language – its value is far more intrinsic for the individual and far wider-reaching for society at large. >> PRINCIPAL’S REPORT
007
Finland’s attitude to education is an extension of its concern for the wellbeing of its citizens in general. Here are some other interesting facts: • Formal schooling commences at age seven in Finland and each school day is typically about an hour shorter than in Australia. Non-compulsory pre-school exists for six year-olds but is strictly play based. In Australia, we now have classes for three year-olds and day care available from 10 weeks of age. • Homework is not assigned in Finland until high school. It is, however, assumed that parents will assist with literacy and numeracy development during the early years of a child’s development. • Parents receive three years paid maternity leave for each child. They also receive a substantial monthly payment for each child until they turn 17. • It is almost unheard of for a child to arrive at school hungry or homeless. • Welfare expenditure, including education, is just over 40% of GDP
in Finland. In Australia, this figure is just over 20% – about half. • As a result, all education in Finland, including at tertiary level, is free. Health and dental care for all students is also free.
between schools based on such indicators. It is a school’s culture and values which should distinguish it. If you only measure the statistics, you miss the human element which is so critical at CBC Fremantle.
So what if any of this has implications for CBC Fremantle? The first learning I believe we can derive is that parents must be recognised by the school, and accept their status, as the first educators of their child. As I said at a recent Graduation Assembly, the family is the first school and parents are powerful models. We are blessed at this College with parents who understand and value the importance of the relationship between the home and school in the full formation of good young men – of gentlemen. Thank you for the times when you trust in the judgement of the school and teach your sons important lessons about coping with adversity.
Finally, we can learn that we must seek excellence through equity. We must strive to be sufficiently flexible to be able to accommodate individual need. It is my hope and aspiration for this College that it will be a school where each young man feels known and cared about. That it is a school committed to principles of social justice where all students are allowed and encouraged to fulfil their educational and human potential. This is perhaps an idealistic view but it is a vision which I believe we must keep in focus. I commend and thank all of the members of our community who work together towards its realisation.
We can also learn that the provision of quality education should be based on responsibility and trust – not on test-based or other superficial measures masquerading as accountability. There should be no place for marketplace competition
As part of this report, I would also like to offer thanks and acknowledgement to the many people who deserve them. I would like to first recognise the contributions of Mr Terry Roberts, who is the Director of Regional >>
“WE CAN ALSO LEARN THAT THE PROVISION OF QUALITY EDUCATION SHOULD BE BASED ON RESPONSIBILITY AND TRUST – NOT ON TEST-BASED OR OTHER SUPERFICIAL MEASURES MASQUERADING AS ACCOUNTABILITY.”

Support for Edmund Rice Education Australia, and Mr Hamish Valentine, who is the Principal Schools Advisor for the Catholic Education Office. The approach of these two gentlemen is always supportive and helpful and CBC Fremantle is a better school for their involvement. The longer I am at CBC the more appreciative I become of the goodwill and generosity of the staff. We are blessed with a group of people who prioritise the young men in their care and truly understand their obligations as positive role models. I am sure that each of the students could testify to many occasions when teachers have gone well beyond their duty in caring for them. On behalf of everyone in our community, I wish to acknowledge the diligence and commitment of our staff. One staff member I would like to especially recognise is Mr Sandro Sandri. After 22 years of distinguished service to our school, he officially retired at the end of this year. It has
010
CBC ANNUAL 2013
been said of Sandro that he has filled every position at the College at some time over those years – including long service as the Deputy Principal and a shorter period as the Principal during 1992. Sandro has seen much positive change during his time at CBC Fremantle and the extent to which his personal involvement has contributed to this development at the College should not be underestimated. Thank you, Sandro, for your selfless nature, your concern for the countless students who have come under your care and for your love of our school. Sadly, I also need to make special mention of one other staff member who is no longer with us at the College. The passing of Mr Ben Foley in May this year deeply touched so many in our community. Ben, or Mr Foley, depending upon how he was known to each of us, had a lasting impact upon those whose lives he graced during his 30 years. He will always be remembered for his love of teaching, of his friends at work and his students. Ben was

a passionate man who saw the good in life and in others. His smile and optimism, which was maintained throughout much of his adversity, will be greatly missed. Farewell, Ben – you will remain in our hearts throughout the years to come. Further thanks are also due to all of the parents who contribute to the efficient functioning of the College in formal ways and through your implicit support of its decisions and direction. Thank you to Mr Rob Leicester and the members of the College Board, Mr Tim Allan and the Parent Council, Mr George Ayres and the CBC Old Boys’ Association, Mrs Pam Formby and the Music Parents Group and all of the others who work in a more formal volunteer capacity in support of our school. Your efforts are greatly valued. In Father Tony Maher, the College has an outstanding Chaplain and a special friend. His willingness to assist in every aspect of the liturgical life of the school and his wisdom
when speaking with the boys are a great benefit to the spiritual development of every young man at the College. We are very grateful for his presence and service. Thank you also to the members of the Christian Brothers for the wonderful legacy which informs so much of our thinking. We know that we stand on the shoulders of all who went before us when we achieve anything as a school. Their ongoing interest, involvement and inspiration are greatly appreciated. And finally, a special thank you to our students. While many are formally recognised for a variety of achievements throughout the year, it is their ongoing commitment to their formation as young gentlemen which makes their families and our school justifiably proud of them. We have much to celebrate at CBC Fremantle – a strong tradition to ground us and an exciting future to envisage. I look forward to sharing it with each of you.

Vice Principal’s Report THE PASTORAL CARE TEAM DOES NOT CEASE IN ITS AIM TO PROVIDE TOP QUALITY SERVICE TO THE BOYS IN OUR CARE, AND THE SATISFACTION IS IN THE FINAL TOP QUALITY RESULT OF OUR YOUNG GENTLEMEN. Vice Principal Mr Domenic Burgio
2013 has been a very busy and exciting year for the College. Building on the outstanding work of my predecessor and the fantastic culture established in the College is a challenge, and members of our staff are wholeheartedly committed to ensuring that the Pastoral Care extended to our boys is second to none. It continues to be our number one priority to provide a community based on Gospel values, and aimed at the formation of outstanding young men. The year has seen several developments in the Pastoral Care portfolio. Firstly, we had the internationally renowned Maggie Dent present to our staff. Maggie is an author, educator, and parenting and resilience specialist with a particular interest in the early years and adolescence. A passionate advocate for the healthy, common sense raising of children in order to strengthen families and communities, Maggie has a broad perspective and depth of knowledge based on modern research and ancient wisdom that
she shared with our staff. It was very encouraging to hear Maggie affirm the College’s direction, and she was even gracious enough to make the following comment on her Facebook page: “Had a wonderful day working with CBC Fremantle yesterday – a boys’ College that really honours the bumpy journey to adulthood with deep respect and empathy. It was simply a privilege to work with such dedicated professionals. A whole school full of boy champions!” Such praise from someone who visits hundreds of schools is certainly reassuring, but the quest to continue to improve service to our boys is never-ending. This year has seen some preparatory work for our move into the new Pastoral Care Centre in early 2014. Members of the Pastoral Board have visited several other schools, trying to establish best practice with regard to the operation of a onestop Student Services building. From next year we will have all our Heads of House, the College Counsellor, the Careers Advisor and the Vice
Principal in the same location. Of course, this in itself does not mean a better quality delivery of service to our families, and we have already begun to restructure our working days, processes and planning to capitalise on the new environment. In 2014, we will also add a Year 7 Transition Coordinator to further strengthen the delivery of Pastoral Care in the College. The members of the Pastoral Care team aim to be ‘lighthouses’ for all of our boys, especially those at the margins. This should not come at the expense of boys who are ‘low maintenance’ just because they always do the right thing, and we plan to hold weekly meetings with about 12 to 15 boys each afternoon just to make sure all boys feel included and have a voice. Part of the process of delivering first class care to our boys has included the formation of a Pastoral network. Although in the early stages of development, it is hoped that this kind of networking and the sharing of ideas will encourage initiatives >> VICE PRINCIPAL’S REPORT
013
and programmes that continue to build on the outstanding service for which our College is known. 2013 has been the first year we have adopted the tag line Today’s boys… tomorrow’s gentlemen. This line was not universally embraced when first pitched to the College Leadership Team; feelings of elitism and the use of an anachronistic term were causing doubt in some minds. During a Rite Journey class, boys were asked for their opinion, and given a list of potential tag lines to choose from. When one of the boys, who had clearly heeded the messages we were promoting in The Rite Journey, offered his take, the deal was done. He stood up and stated, “All boys eventually become men, but not all boys will become gentlemen.”
Simply put, but deep in its meaning, this Year 9 boy was saying that CBC Fremantle aims to have, as its point of difference, the development of young men who are far removed from the archetypal male defined only by their love of sports, beer and cars. While these three passions can, individually and collectively, be positive attributes of a man, we believe that a gentleman is so much more. Our boys are challenged to be sensitive; to make informed decisions; to embrace Gospel values that are immutable; to respect women; to speak out for the oppressed; to commit, to serve others; and to love. The development of this gentleman takes place on our watch, as he grows physically and emotionally

during his high school years. It is not a task we tackle alone; it is founded on the values and support of each boy’s family, and its success is greatly enhanced when the values of the family and the values of the College have perfect synchronicity. During the year, possibly my greatest joy is to observe a boy put right an error of judgment when his family and his school steadfastly hold him to account, and love him unconditionally. When family and school work together, the product is inevitably successful. I look forward to continuing to work with all members of our community to enhance the development of our young men, and sharing the joy of that journey with them.

Deputy Principal’s Report IF IT IS ON THE TIMETABLE, IT IS ACADEMIC, AND THE CONSTANT MESSAGE TO OUR STUDENTS IS TO STRIVE FOR PERSONAL EXCELLENCE. Deputy Principal Ms Marriann O’Neill
2013 started with the recognition of the strong performance by our students in the WACE 2012. With a median Australian Tertiary Admissions Rank (ATAR) above the state average, we celebrated our outstanding results at a special assembly at the start of the year. Congratulations to Joel Frewin, Benoit Gaffney, David King, Michael Messineo, Jordan Paynter and Ben Tomlinson who all received a Certificate of Commendation for obtaining 10 A grades over Years 11 and 12. Congratulations also to Ben Anandappa who, as a Year 11 student in 2012, sat Mathematics 3C/D and received a Special Certificate of Distinction for an exam result in the top 0.5%. At the beginning of the year we inducted into CBC Fremantle’s 95+ ATAR club the following students: Matthew Biddiscombe, Delaney Bruce, Ben Di Sabato, Joel Frewin, Benoit Gaffney, David King, Michael Messineo, Adrian Monaco, Riley Skipworth and Ben Tomlinson.
We also celebrated the College’s strong performance in Applied Information Technology 3A/B, Chemistry 3A/B, Economics 3A/B, English 2A/B, Mathematics 3C/D, Mathematics Specialist 3C/D and Physics 3A/B.
to join is keen. The boys wear their AEP badges with pride. The boys’ efforts are ably supported by our committed staff who offer a wide range of formal co-curricular groups to support students’ learning and to develop their many talents.
As always the new academic year started with the Year 7 cohort finding their feet, Year 10s positioning themselves for subject selection midyear, Year 11s becoming accustomed to their new courses and Year 12s preparing to do their best.
In addition to these formal moments, there are many informal, quiet moments, before and after school, at recess and lunchtime, where students striving to do their best are assisted by staff committed to helping them achieve personal excellence. I thank them all for their hard work and commitment.
We were pleased to welcome Mrs Liz Ashcroft to our Learning Support Team as our first Education Assistant and she has been a huge asset in our ability to academically assist our students. Along with Ms Margaret Crommy, Br Kevin Paull and a myriad of staff, the College continues to seek out personalised ways of developing our young men into gentleman and lifelong learners. Our Academic Excellence Programme continues to find ways to engage and challenge our young men, and competition to be invited
I also extend a special thank you to the Heads of Learning Area, who are constantly looking for the best outcomes for students in their disciplines. Thanks also to the Academic Learning Prefects who have so ably assisted me this year, while continuing to maintain their own studies: Ben Anandappa, Kale Miller, Alessandro Monaco and Simon Smith.

have been refurbished. In addition, the College has established a sacred space, with the establishment of the Blessed Edmund Chapel, and a new staff and student services building will be completed in early 2014.
With a clear strategic direction and values, that underpin everything we do, CBC Fremantle has come a long way and has an exciting future.
Guiding our boys through the transition from boyhood to becoming good men The College’s tag line, Today’s boys, tomorrow’s gentlemen, is a clear statement that underpins our values and how we see the important role of the College in assisting parents in the development of their boys.
Importantly, it is a place that contributes to the community and is known for guiding students to become gentlemen with strong values. Over recent years there has been a focus on: Academic growth Providing educational experiences that challenge and extend our students to achieve personal excellence and to reach their potential has helped CBC Fremantle to continue to be listed in the top academic schools in the state in the Australian Tertiary Admissions Rank (ATAR). The College also has strong academic support programmes. Upgrading the College facilities Ensuring we are providing a quality learning environment for students and staff. Over the last few years considerable progress has been made in this area. New classrooms have been built and almost 50% of existing classes

CBC ANNUAL 2013
The pastoral care programmes at CBC Fremantle are outstanding. The House system, through its vertical structure, and the Religious Education programme that focuses on the holistic spiritual formation of each student, are underpinned by strong teacher/student and school/family relationships. In addition, the recently introduced The Rite Journey is an educational programme that is unique in Western Australia to CBC Fremantle and is proving to be very special. There are many people that continue to contribute to making CBC Fremantle a special place that is making a real difference. Firstly, the Christian Brothers play a big part at CBC Fremantle by supporting our teaching staff and guiding our boys on their path to becoming gentlemen.
Fr Tony Maher, the College Chaplain, has a great connection with the College; his influence in the journey of our young men is considerable and very much appreciated. Our Principal Shaun Kenny and his Leadership team have again provided outstanding management this year. Together with the College’s teaching and other professional staff, they embody the values of CBC Fremantle and do such a fantastic job. These wonderful people do so much more than teach. They provide guidance and mentoring and are often confidants. The College staff makes a difference to the lives of the young men at CBC Fremantle and help to guide them on their journey to being true gentlemen. Finally, I acknowledge my Board colleagues for their passion for CBC Fremantle and for their work to support our Principal and his team. Thank you to Greg Bruce, Angie Emanuele, Frank Iannantuoni, Nic Preston, Sandra Seman-Bourke, Anthony Sutton, Debbie Waddell and Paul Ziegelaar. It is a privilege to be part of CBC Fremantle.

Business Manager’s Report Business Manager Mr Tony Pitos
In order to operate efficiently, organisations usually develop a budget which outlines their proposed income and expenditure. CBC Fremantle develops an operating budget in order to formulate a model that generates the fiscal capacity to accommodate the requirements associated with the College Strategic Plan, which incorporates the efficient delivery of education and the physical environment. Actual revenue and expense is compared with that budgeted, and variance analysis provides a measure of control which allows an alignment with, or better than, budget expectations. Tuition fees, facilities income and state and federal government grants are the main sources of revenue. Income streams are applied to the outgoings in the College, and if there is a segmentation of income and expenditure, broadly the revenue derived from grant income would be applied in total to the wages and salaries expense. Tuition fees are vital to the operation of the College as these provide the fiscal capacity to debt service loans and provide funds to enable the general operations of the College.
020
CBC ANNUAL 2014
Although the income streams can be generally identified to expenditure categories, the combination of the revenue streams provide the funds to enable CBC to continue to develop both the physical environment and also the many other resources needed to keep the College abreast of any new developments in education and provide the optimum in pedagogy. Expenditure within the College is identified with three main areas: salaries and wages, debt servicing, and operations and maintenance expenses. Salaries and wages are the largest cost area ,with teaching salaries the most significant component. Other expenditure relevant to the efficient operation of the College includes that related to utilities and maintenance and professional development of staff. In 2013 tuition fees and charges have been increased 8%. This increase was deemed necessary due to continuing financial pressures on the College, including increases in teaching salaries and other general expense increases. Pressure continues to be placed on tuition fees by the upward move in the Index of Cultural and Social
Advantage (IGSEA) of the College. Determined by demographic data, the IGSEA indicates increased financial capacity of families in the CBC student catchment area. This upward movement has the effect of reducing the level of federal and state funding. Formulas for the calculation of funding are influenced by the IGSEA level and the IGSEA increase has the effect of reducing government funding allocations. One aspect of the College finances not allowed to lose momentum is the collection of income. Ensuring that all tuition fees are received in the academic year of billing is imperative as the reliance on these funds is becoming greater due to movements in the pattern and level of government funding. In a similar manner expenditure must be monitored to ensure the best utilisation of resources. Continued measurement and control in these areas means that CBC will remain an affordable College with fees and charges significantly lower than other metropolitan boys’ schools. The cessation of the National Secondary Schools Computer Fund has meant that the College has to internally fund the one-to-one computer programme. Students

in Year 12 in 2013 will be the last beneficiaries of the government provided one-to-one programme. The College continues to maintain two computer laboratories for more sophisticated software programs. Desktops in Technology & Enterprise and the Music Room provide additional computer access. The Laptop Centre in the College is maintained to provide the necessary repairs and generally service the programme in the College. Continual auditing of the current environment and implementation of the most recent software plus the
installation of the latest hardware ensures that the College remains at the forefront of technology. Capital development within the College during 2013 has been substantial with the construction of the new Student Services and staff facility well on the way to achieving the estimated completion date of 5 March 2014. The refurbishment of classrooms continues with three rooms plus the renovation of the existing Staffroom and adjacent office into two additional classrooms.

The concept has been on the College Strategic Plan since 2002 and the benefits of having a sacred space on campus are immeasurable.

College Captain’s Address AT THE CLASS OF 2013 GRADUATION, COLLEGE CAPTAIN ALEX SKINNER SPOKE OF COMMUNITY AND THE BRIGHT FUTURE FOR HIS YEAR 12 COLLEAGUES. CBC Fremantle College Captain Alex Skinner
Tonight we gather to celebrate the ending of our journey and the beginning of another. We leave behind a part of our lives which has taught us so much, and hopefully prepared us for what lies ahead. It is a great achievement we have all made together, completing Year 12 with all the challenges it presents. Our parents, teachers and our friends have helped us learn what it is to be fine young men who exemplify the qualities of Edmund Rice. Since beginning at CBC Fremantle way back in 2008, we have developed many relationships with other students and the staff, and before I continue, I would like to acknowledge the loss we all felt earlier this year. Mr Foley was the epitome of the phrase ‘top bloke’ and was someone who I believe represented the inclusive community we have here at the College. He was someone with whom you could strike up a conversation about anything and he was so dedicated to the College and the students. Although he is not physically here with us tonight, in
a way I feel that he is. I’m sure he’s looking down on us now and is so proud of the young men we have become. After tonight, we will have graduated from CBC Fremantle but there will always be a place for us here at the College. Whenever we walk through the front gates, we immediately feel a sense of peace and security. These positive sensations about the school have made it a home away from home. To the staff and the students, CBC seems like less of a school and more of a family. We look out for one another and care for one another, just like you would for your loved ones. It is certainly this culture of the College that we would love to see continue and flourish over the years. In spending five years with a group of people, you are bound to make lasting memories. I’m sure in 10 years’ time we will have forgotten our ATAR scores or what Newton’s Laws are, but what will remain are the memories of the traits and talents of the 100 or so colleagues with whom we have had the privilege
of sharing our journey at CBC. Like James Rayner’s gift to play football like Gary Ablett Jr, Ben Anandappa’s ability to be really smart, Anthony Collova’s capacity as an exceptional cricket player, Nathan Simich’s ability to write amazing pieces of literature and Simon Smith’s skill to play guitar like John Mayer. It is these talents and memories that will be forever cherished in the years to come. This journey we have experienced at CBC Fremantle has had a great effect on who we have become. From personal experience, I’ve seen the way CBC transforms its students. During my years at primary school, my reports were of a reasonable standard except for one key aspect: I always received the lowest possible rating for leadership skills and was considered a shy and introverted child. Reflecting back, it made me realise how far I have grown as a person and, without doubt, I have my family and the College to thank for bringing out the best in me. I think that if all of us could go back in time and look at who we were prior to our period at CBC Fremantle, >> COLLEGE CAPTAIN’S ADDRESS

“IT IS THE ATTRIBUTES, RESILIENCE, SELFREFLECTION AND COMMITMENT WE HAVE ALL LEARNED TO DISPLAY WHILST COMING TO UNDERSTAND THAT GOSPEL VALUES ARE THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO A HAPPY AND FULFILLING LIFE.”
we would certainly recognise our transformation from young boys into gentlemen. I feel that our parents are sometimes taken for granted and not thanked for their hard work over the years. Our parents do so much for us and ask for nothing in return. They support us and love us with all their hearts. I can say that the work of all the parents here has certainly paid off. Your sons are respectful, courteous and loving young gentlemen who I’m sure you are all very proud of. We all very much appreciate what you have done for us and we thank you for the opportunities in life you have presented us with, above all for helping us choose a school that reflects your values, and shares your aspirations for us. To the teachers, I would like to thank you for the endless hours of dedication and commitment you have given over the years. Albert Einstein said, “It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge.” I believe that our teachers have done that. They have allowed us to find and follow our passions, talents and goals, which has given us direction for the future. I cannot thank you enough for all you have done for us over the years and hopefully we have made you very proud teachers.

I would also like to thank Father Tony Maher for his spiritual guidance and the support he has given us over the years. His homilies during Mass have been a source of inspiration and allowed us to apply the values and teachings of Jesus into our modern lives, which will provide us with guidance and strength for the years ahead. As our time at CBC draws to a close, it is a great chance to reflect upon the many experiences and memories we have shared together. There’s so much we’ve done together that we can be proud of as a year group: Duke of Edinburgh, the School Ball and the retreats are some of the things we have done over the years. The Duke of Edinburgh was a turning point in our journey from boys to gentlemen, and we shared that experience as a collective and cohesive unit. It developed and reinforced a set of morals and values that we will use for the rest of our lives. We witnessed and experienced courage, honour, respect and determination on the camp and I think at that moment, we, as a group, came closer together. While the majority of us are stressing about the forthcoming WACE Exams, employment or further training, it is important to remember that the value of our time here at CBC is not determined by exams, jobs or future
study. Rather, it is the transformation that began on the first day we arrived. It is the attributes, resilience, self-reflection and commitment we have all learned to display while coming to understand that Gospel values are the ultimate guide to a happy and fulfilling life. Finally, I would like to use my last words as College Captain to say something about my fellow students. I speak right from the heart when I say that you are a most loyal group and it has been an honour to serve you. I look forward to continuing the relationships we have created over the years and cannot wait until our reunions, in years to come, to see you make great husbands and fathers. The future for you all is so very bright and I believe that you all have the capacity to make your dreams and aspirations a reality. As the journey of adulthood beckons, I am confident to say that we are well prepared to experience this next chapter of our lives. Thank you again to everyone who has helped us over the years. We look forward to entering the next exciting phase of our lives that I pray will be filled with peace and happiness.

The CBC Journey OUR RITE OF PASSAGE CEREMONIES HIGHLIGHT THE IMPORTANCE OF FAMILY AND COLLEGE WORKING TOGETHER FOR THE BENEFIT OF OUR YOUNG MEN. Vice Principal Mr Domenic Burgio
Today’s boys… tomorrow’s gentlemen In 2013 this tagline was adopted by the College. Whether fortuitous, or a stroke of genius, it has come to encapsulate what happens to our boys here at CBC Fremantle. The beautiful, fresh-faced boys we see on Day 1 in Year 7 blossom into the proud, responsible leaders who leave us with such dignity at the end of Year 12. What happens between these seminal moments is represented by those three dots in the tag line, and we refer to that time as the boys’ journey. Interestingly enough, before the journey became part of the tag line lexicon, it had already appeared in a couple of other places. For many years now, and thanks to the foresight of the Parent Council, we have started the school year with an event that has come to be known as Share the Journey. In recent years this has become almost an initiation rite for our Year 7 boys. Last year the College introduced The Rite Journey, providing our Year 9 boys
with the opportunity to experience rites of passage and important life lessons. Both of these programmes have become pivotal signposts on the journey our boys undertake at CBC and provide a clear and positive road map for boys and their families on the successful navigation of their adolescent years.
SHARE THE JOURNEY A morning’s walk along the Swan River for dads and their Year 7 sons has become a signature event for our College and this year was again enthusiastically embraced by our community. As the morning unfolded, it was very evident that a time of great significance and power was being shared by many of those present. Contemporary society presents many potential role models for boys in the form of celebrities from all walks of life. Unfortunately, few of these people have any interest in their status as role models or possess the values that we would wish our own children to develop. One of the important objectives of Share the
Journey is to remind the boys that their dad is someone with a wealth of life experience who loves them unconditionally. With the help of a programme of questions and prompts to encourage dads to talk with their sons about their own life experiences, Share the Journey participants walked along the Swan River from Point Walter to the Bicton Baths and back again, taking in the various historical and ecological landmarks along the way. Mr David Fienberg and his son Jordie (Class of 2011) delivered poignant and thought-provoking talks at different times during the morning, and the walk finished with a community sausage sizzle. While the individual circumstances of many of the fathers in attendance was quite diverse, they were united in their desire to enhance their relationship with their son and to be a strong and positive influence in their development. Research repeatedly shows that strong male role-modelling is an important contributor to boys developing a >> COMMUNITY

positive self-image, forming mutually beneficial friendships and having a healthy respect for women. These aims are clearly compatible with the broader pastoral development programme undertaken by the College and I’m sure they are also outcomes that every family is working hard to achieve at home. Perhaps the real power of this programme rests in its simplicity and capacity to remind dads about the critical function they play in the lives of their sons. Share the Journey emphasises the fact that opportunities to interrelate need to be consciously arranged. If we delay the accumulation of ‘frequent father points’, the years and the opportunities can quickly pass by. I commend all of the fathers who had the courage and foresight to attend the morning’s programme and to make this essential investment in their sons.
THE RITE JOURNEY In almost ideal conditions at the end of a very warm day, our Year 9 students, their families and friends gathered with many of the College staff in Week 5 of the first term to officially launch The Rite Journey for 2013. The setting at Monument Hill
added poignancy to the significance of the occasion as these boys were challenged to reflect upon their past and commit to their futures as young men. This programme has tremendous resonance with our purpose as a Catholic School in the Edmund Rice Tradition. At CBC Fremantle we recognise that parents want their sons to mature into young men with strong values which they understand and represent faithfully. Furthermore, they want the gentlemen who graduate from this school to be active and informed citizens who are well prepared for the morally complex world they will encounter. As a school, we seek to assist families in this formative process wherever possible. The following excerpt from the introduction I delivered at the ceremony encapsulates the intent of The Rite Journey: “Every parent wishes for their child a life full of happiness, joy, success and good health. But more than this, the parents, teachers and mentors of CBC boys hope that all of these blessings are built on a foundation of faith, service, sound values and leadership. It is for this reason that
we work together to provide the support you need now, will need in the near future and will one day give to your own children. “Much of what determines the kind of man you will be, the kind of husband you will be, the kind of father you will be and the kind of son you will be to your elderly parents, will be reflected in the way you handle the adversity you will encounter on your journey to manhood. The skills and resilience you build as a result of overcoming the next obstacle will make each subsequent hurdle easier to clear.” CBC Fremantle continues to place great emphasis upon helping each of our students to build resilience and to discern those values which are critical to the development of a good young man.

Old Boys’ Association Report President Old Boys’ Association Mr George Ayres
CBC Fremantle Old Boys’ Association seeks to maintain the strong community and friendship connections that we enjoyed as students. Young Old Boys and old Old Boys are encouraged to remain in contact and keep in touch with the increasing prosperity and success of our College. As such, the Old Boys’ Association was pleased to invite graduates from the Classes of 1988, 1993 and 2003 back to CBC for their 25, 20 and 10 year reunions respectively. The events were very successful and encouraged a closer network amongst the alumni who attended. Several teachers from those years also attended, and tours of the College showcased the wonderful additions, renovations and plans for the future of our old school. Old Boy, John Hughes (’52), sponsored our popular annual Seniors Over 60s Morning Tea this year. It was a delightful get-together also attended by partners, and a marvellous opportunity for Old Boys

and spouses to catch up with the news of family and share tales from the past. John is a strong supporter of the College, and we thank him for his contribution to this wonderful event.
On behalf of the Committee, I would like to thank Lyn McGowan, Verna Buck and Maria Lo Presti for their donations again this year, which assists with maintaining the James McGowan Bursary.
At the beginning of the year, we are always pleased to welcome new Old Boys back for the Year 13 breakfast which was held at the Left Bank Restaurant. Looking very relaxed after their holidays, and ready to embark on the new stage in their academic pursuits or career paths, the graduates of 2012 were full of plans and ambitions. We wish them well for their future and hope to see more of them at Old Boy events.
We would also like to thank all of the CBC staff for their hard work and help during the past year.
Every year the Old Boys’ Association provides a Bursary for a student who would otherwise be unable to attend the College for financial reasons. The recipient is chosen by the Principal and remains anonymous to the Old Boys, and indeed the community, and we were pleased to be able to assist this boy gain a valuable education.
And finally I would like to thank the Old Boys’ committee for their efforts during 2013 and their continuing dedication to ensuring the Old Boy’s Association’s activities are successful. Looking to the future, the Old Boys’ Association encourages the graduates of 2013 to continue their association with the College community by remembering to update contact details and send news of any adventures and successes to include in the College magazine. God bless the young gentlemen of CBC Fremantle, and the best of luck to this year’s graduating cohort.

Parent Council Report President Parent Council Mr Tim Allan
The strong sense of community and belonging has certainly been palpable during the academic year of 2013 at CBC Fremantle. As the year draws to a close I would like to reflect on the events that have been facilitated by the Parent Council. We started the year with the incoming Year 7 parent morning tea, giving the new parents an opportunity to mingle and meet others. This was then followed by the annual Year 7 parent wine and cheese evening; a great occasion to share a glass of wine and enjoy the company of new friends in a relaxed environment. Open Day was once again a huge success, with many families coming to visit the school and see for themselves the wonderful facilities we have at the College. Many of the tour groups were led by some fine young men from the school, and it was wonderful to see those keen faces explaining to the parents and younger boys how the school works and showing off the various departments and activities.
Share the Journey is a unique and special concept developed by some of the Parent Council members around five years ago. The morning allows fathers and sons to spend some quality time together and reflect on their relationship, as the boys embark on their own journey to becoming a man. I have seen this event grow enormously and this year around 160 dads and sons attended. I would like to thank Michael O’Connor for his work in developing this wonderful opportunity for both fathers and sons. In May we hosted the Mother’s Day morning tea. I am positive there wasn’t a dry eye in the gym after some very heartfelt words by the boys and Mr Burgio. Father’s Day in September was also very well attended with dads and boys enjoying each others company with a bacon and egg burger in hand! Relationships Australia again presented a workshop on mums raising sons and also dealing with the challenges of having fathers involved in FIFO work. Heartfelt thanks to
Sophie Benson for initiating and growing this event. As the end of the year draws near I would like to take this opportunity to thank all those on the Parent Council for all the time and effort you all put into supporting College events. We also welcome new members Barry Bourne, John Atkinson, Brenda Munro, Judy McShane and Leon Yurak. I would also like to make special mention of the outgoing members of the Parent Council: Sophie Benson, Enzelia Fogliani, Michael O’Connor and Phil O’Neill. Your dedication and tireless work are very much appreciated. You should all be very proud of the legacy you leave at Ellen Street. I wish the graduating class of 2013 every success. As you walk out the gates for the last time, always know you will always be CBC men and will always carry CBC in your hearts.

Jazz Orchestra at ViPA
Music Parents’ Group Report President Music Parents’ Group Ms Pam Formby
This year has been a busy one for the CBC Music boys and the Music Parents Group (MPG). Sadly some of us (including me) will be moving on after this year as our Year 12 boys go out into the big wide world. I hope that a few new parents will step up to fill our places. It has been great to see a resurgence of music at the school after a couple of quieter years. The Jazz Orchestra and Big Band continue with an everwidening repertoire, even venturing into the realms of pop music. The two Guitar Ensembles also continue strongly, along with the relatively new Saxophone Ensemble and Brass Ensemble, as well as old faithfuls, the College Choir and Music Ministry (previously known as the God Band). Our fabulous fundraising team of Charlie Fowler and Marian Walter got straight to work, successfully securing sponsorship and donations early in the year, which allowed us to run some very successful fundraising at each of our events throughout the year.

We had another wonderful camp in May at Woodman’s Point, culminating in a fun performance on Sunday morning. June was a big month with the JO playing at Clancy’s Fish Pub. Jazz on the Swan this year was reborn as Jazz at the Club at the South Fremantle Football Club. As always, a big thank you to all the committee members who helped with the planning, at the door and with selling raffle tickets. Probably the highlight of the year for many of the boys was a successful tour to Singapore in July, enjoyed by a group of 16 Year 10 to 12 boys. They performed at a number of venues and with a couple of schools, although apparently they found time for plenty of tourist activities as well. We also had another successful ViPA evening in August at the Fremantle Town Hall. It was wonderful to have Stella from Iona singing with the JO. We missed Frank Williams providing supper this year, but the committee did a sterling job of preparing food.
Thanks to all the committee who assisted on the evening. Finally, I would like to extend a huge thank you to the committee members who assisted in 2013, in particular Nancy Hourani (Vice President), Geraldine Thompson (Secretary), Brigette Liddelow (Treasurer), Charlie Fowler (Fundraising), Marian Walter (Fundraising and Uniform Coordinator), Michael O’Connor (Parent Council Representative), Moya Foxwell (committee member always willing to help and stood in to take the minutes on several occasions). Thank you to all those others who regularly attended meetings (Susanne Sutton, Karen Clifford, Tim and Andrea Leen, Jo Read, Phillip Hoy, Michelle Romano and Angela Natale) and all those who gave your support and assistance wherever and whenever it was needed. Thank you also to Shane Mancuso, who always attends our meetings and works so hard to give our boys a great musical experience.

Vale Ben Foley Head of Science Mrs Jennifer Lawlor
The staff, students and the CBC community all lost a dear friend and colleague this year. Ben Foley passed away on Monday 6 May, the first day back for staff in Term 2. The sadness was palpable. No words that I can write will ever be able to capture his nature, his smile, his hugs and his laugh.
Mr McGrath recalls asking the boys how training went, saying: “Did Mr Foley get in the water?” The boys would answer with deep respect, “He shredded”, or “He carved up.” They were in awe of him and his God-given natural abilities in the sport for which he had a deep passion.
I have always been very proud to say I teach and work at CBC, and I can attribute a lot of that to the people with whom I work. Ben was part of all that with his wicked sense of humour and a smile so warm and infectious that that you wanted to be around him.
Ben epitomised the attitudes and behaviours of a good young man, selfless and kind. He was social with staff, some of the lads on staff remember great fishing trips; and volunteering for camps.
His impact on students went well beyond the walls of the classroom. Ben was most at home outside. He loved all things related to the water, surfing being a huge passion and he shared this with the boys early on Friday mornings.
036
CBC ANNUAL 2014
I would often be in the Science office while he taught Year 7 and 8 lessons. I loved listening to those classes – they sounded fun and relaxed, and kids clearly felt free to ask questions. There was a respect there, yet the boys could take the mickey out of him and him to them; the banter was great.
Ben made it easy to come to work. He was a team player, he would let you know if he didn’t agree, but once a decision was made he would move on. You always knew where you stood with Ben; he was honest, sincere, and generous with his time. He was fun to be around, had great energy and a top sense of humour, essential traits for teaching boys. It does not seem fair or right that we say goodbye so early in the piece. He was at the top of his game in a job he chose to make his career, newly married to gorgeous Eve and together sharing a beautiful little boy, Ry, as new and loving parents. There is something immeasurably sad about a life cut far too short. The realisation that parents must lay their child to rest; that a wife will no longer have her husband beside her in bed at night; a child so young he cannot yet tell his dad he loves him,
who leaves behind a brother and sisters now missing a piece of their special bond, and all the friendships that will not grow old. If losing Ben is to show us anything, let it be to recognise the fragility of life. Love the ones you are with, treasure your family and your friendships. Let your hearts, thoughts and prayers go to Ben’s wife Eve, son Ry, and the Foley family.
I am sure that looking down on us Ben’s thoughts may align with this poem: Do not stand at my grave and weep, I am not there; I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glints on snow, I am the sun on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning’s hush I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circling flight. I am the soft starlight at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there; I did not die. Elizabeth Frye Ben my friend, you were a good man – a gentleman – the highest compliment I can give to any man. You were a gentleman and I’m blessed, we are blessed, to have known you.

Head of Morgan House Mr Adrian Correia
The students of Morgan House have had a very successful year and I have been proud to see the passion, spirit and determination these gentlemen show in all areas of College life. Being a Catholic school in the tradition of Edmund Rice, service has once again been the cornerstone of our House. The students have been outstanding in their generosity and care for those less fortunate than themselves. Many of our staff and boys have donated their time and effort towards supporting many local charities such as Good Start Breakfast, Soup Patrol, Red Cross, the Christmas Appeal and many more, all under the guidance of the College Christian Service Coordinator Ms Emily Bowran. This generosity also extends to our wider community with the parents of Morgan House offering overwhelming support for our fundraising activities, and I feel privileged to be involved in such a great community that is the Morgan family.
Spiritually, our College continues to flourish, with the opening of the College Chapel giving the boys a sacred place in which to reflect. Morgan boys have been sensational in their support of the religious opportunities provided to them. Our House Masses have been enthusiastically attended and provided significant opportunities for our House to gather together. Thank you to Mrs Vera Moura who organises and coordinates our liturgies. The Arts showcased the vast amount of creative talent Morgan students have to offer. It is always a pleasure to witness the results of the hard work of our students and it never ceases to amaze me how creative and talented the boys from Morgan House are. In the sporting arena, the champions of Morgan House continued to shine. The beauty of the carnivals we have at CBC is that the scoring systems are all based on participation and the boys giving their best effort, and this is something that is ingrained
in the gentlemen of Morgan. Although this House spirit was not reflected in the final result at the Swimming Carnival, it is what led to us having an overwhelming victory at the Athletics, with Morgan House having significantly more numbers volunteering for pre-carnival events than any other House. Our College Prefects and House Councillors did a magnificent job this year helping with activities that have been influential in generating House spirit. We have a fine group of young Catholic leaders in Morgan House and these gentlemen should be proud of their efforts. I would like to thank our wonderful Mentor teachers, Ms Petrina Brewer, Mrs Andrea Fitzpatrick, Mr Jason Matthews, Mr Ross Websdale, Mrs Candice Brown, Mr Geoff Buss, Ms Angela Calanni and Mrs Caroline Denny for their outstanding support. With this calibre of teachers, it is no wonder CBC Fremantle produces such delightful gentlemen.

Head of Patrick House Mr Brent Butcher
Mary Lydon Simonsen’s wise words, “Determination, effort, and practice are rewarded with success”, have played an integral part in the Patrick House community this year. At CBC Fremantle we continually challenge and encourage our students to strive for personal excellence. This concept permeates everything Patrick House stands for; it allows every boy to attain success in many facets of College life. This year the students of Patrick House have delivered on the challenges put before them, often with a smile but always with passion. Academic excellence is central to our community and the students of Patrick House have once again been rewarded for their efforts with many successes. For some it is via the extrinsic receiving of awards and certificates whilst for many others it is the intrinsic reward of knowing that they have achieved to the very best of their ability. I commend all students who have experienced personal excellence in this area.
Spirituality is at the core of CBC Fremantle; it is the story of Jesus Christ that permeates our House and compels the care, compassion and service of others. The students have been active members of House Masses and are especially proud to be the first College group to celebrate the Eucharist in the new Chapel.
The most important component of Patrick House is the community; it is an inclusive and loving environment that acknowledges success, challenges standards and maintains values. This community is only as strong as the three pillars that support it – the students, their parents and the staff.
Service is a strength of our House and once again the students have displayed their willingness to share their time and efforts to improve the lives of others. This was highlighted by the outstanding House fundraiser where we were able to raise a substantial sum which was used to improve the quality of life for others within our society.
I thank the gentleman of Patrick and their parents for another outstanding year, and I would like to acknowledge Dr Aidan Holohan, Ms Marilyn Schmidt, Ms Emily Bowran, Mrs Vera Moura, Ms Vanessa Ricciardi, Mr Marius Van Dongen, Mr Louis Miller, Mr Stephen Hunter and Mr Paul Woodhouse for their outstanding service and pastoral care. Also a special thank you to House Prefects, Rohan Grant and Thomas Martella, for their assistance and support.
Sporting success is often evaluated on final results but this is not always a true indicator of real achievement. This year we were defeated by the smallest of margins in the House Swimming Carnival, an outstanding result. Equally pleasing was the effort by all students to be resilient and claw their way into third position in the Athletics.
Congratulations on another year filled with effort and determination and I wish the departing senior students a future filled with personal excellence and compassion for others.

CBC ANNUAL 2013
Head of Rice House Mr Troy Foote
At the end of last year, which was a very successful year for Rice House, I challenged all Rice boys to return in 2013 and set about achieving one common goal: for every Rice student to give of their very best in all school endeavours. “With ordinary talent and extraordinary perseverance, great things are attainable.” I am happy to say that in 2013 a very large number in Rice House did just that. As Mr Kenny mentioned at many assemblies throughout the year, “When one of us achieves success at CBC Fremantle, we all get to share that success.” Each student will know in his heart the degree to which he gave of his best this year, across all aspects of College Life. For those of you who are satisfied with your efforts – well done. For those of you who know you could have given more – let’s see if you can try harder next year. “Hard work is the price we must pay for success.”
In saying that I hope all Year 12 Rice students are leaving us with a strong sense of accomplishment. I hope they can all say that they gave their best during their time at CBC Fremantle. “Today’s preparation determines tomorrow’s achievements.” When they look back at their journey, starting in Year 8 and ending in their recent graduation, if they can say that, then they can be proud of themselves, proud of what they have managed to achieve, and most importantly, proud of the gentlemen they have become. “A man is best measured by what he leaves behind.” I would like to make special mention of Jeremy Fletcher. During his time at CBC, Jeremy set an outstanding example for other students to follow, making him a very worthy recipient of the Rice House Award for 2013. Well done, Jeremy.
A special mention must also be made of Ben Anandappa, who leaves the College this year with so many personal academic accolades. Yes, Ben is very gifted, but what is particularly great about Ben’s story is that he puts in so much work over and above what is expected – he really typifies giving of your best. “We are what we repeatedly do… excellence then, is not an act but a habit!” I would like to take this opportunity to thank the dedicated and caring Rice House Mentors: Mrs Meagan Musson, Mrs Fiona Williams, Mr Frank Williams, Mrs Lisa Wolfe, Mr Matthew Stockton, Ms Zoe Francis, Mrs Stephanie Hantzis and Miss Lisa Tognolini. To all 2013 Year 12 ‘Rice Bubbles’, it has been a pleasure; I look forward to hearing how you’re progressing through life. Gentlemen, goodbye, good luck, and God Bless.

Head of Samson House Mr Craig Jones
“I was feeling really nervous but a little excited,” then, “I felt less nervous and more excited.” These are the feelings the Year 7s were experiencing before and after Orientation Day. The year has flown by and our youngest students have now begun their journey from ‘Today’s boys’ to ‘tomorrow’s gentlemen’. Their growth and maturity has been pleasing to watch. After settling into College life, they are very happy about making new friends, meeting new teachers and doing subjects they had never done before in primary school. The House system provides a strong sense of House spirit and this was felt at the beginning of the year when the Year 12s began their Mentor Mates programme. It skyrocketed when Samson won the Swimming Carnival for the fourth year in a row. Whilst the result was not the same for Athletics, the boys continued to
rally together and support each other throughout the day. Well done to all of the boys. Another year has ended and we farewell the Year 12s; well done to these boys for doing their best over the past five years and achieving success in various aspects of the College. We wish them every success in their future endeavours and hope to see them again in the years to come. Well done to the many Samson boys who received House Awards. It is so pleasing to see such a large number of boys obtain 90% or higher in their positive indicators. I would like to thank all parents for their continued support in helping their sons commit to and follow the standards expected of them as students of CBC Fremantle. Once again, thank you to the parents who were able to help out with the fundraiser and make it a very
successful day. We were able to donate approximately $2,500 to charity, of which $1,000 was given to the Cancer Foundation on behalf of Mr Ben Foley’s family. I look forward to working with many of you next year for other Samson events. I would like to thank the House Prefects and Councillors for their support this year. I would also like to thank the Mentor Teachers, who ensure each student begins the day well and his pastoral needs are met with care and diligence. To the remainder of the boys, now that the year is over, I would like them to take time over the holidays to reflect on 2013 and set goals for 2014; goals that can be achieved with enthusiasm and through striving for excellence as individuals and together as members of Samson House.

Religious Education AT CBC FREMANTLE WE SEEK TO DEEPEN THE FAITH OF OUR STUDENTS AND ENRICH THEIR UNDERSTANDINGS OF THEMSELVES AND OTHERS. Director of Religious Education and Identity Mr Craig Dowsett
This year saw the launch of M68 Campus Ministry at CBC Fremantle. The name M68 is derived from the Old Testament book of Micah, chapter 6, verse 8. This is what the Lord asks of you: to act justly, to love tenderly and to walk humbly with your God. Campus Ministry brings together the areas of Service, Liturgies, Retreats, Aboriginal Reconciliation and Religious Education. These areas give expression to the four Touchstones that are at the heart of a Catholic Education in the Edmund Rice tradition. Liberating Education Our Religious Education programme aims to give our students an understanding of the Catholic Faith, its origins and its place within a contemporary world. It gives our students the skills to critically reflect on the values of our society and how they can promote practices which will build a better world for all. The College promotes an academic
084
CBC ANNUAL 2013
rigour in our Religious Education programme and encourages all students to achieve their personal best in what is considered the first learning area of every Catholic school. This year we have had more than 20 staff contribute to the teaching of Religious Education, representing one third of our teachers. Our results have been pleasing with above average performance in the Bishops’ Religious Literacy Testing which was held at the beginning of Term 2. Our results in the WACE exams are also expected to be good with promising results being demonstrated throughout the year. Gospel Spirituality Jesus Christ, his life and mission, remains at the core of our College. Our students are encouraged to enter into a personal relationship with Jesus; prayer and liturgy punctuate our days and our year. Each lesson begins with prayer and key College events are marked by appropriate liturgical celebrations.
Our Opening School Mass, held in the College Cloisters, is a highlight of the year. More than 2,000 people come together for a twilight Mass where we pray for the coming year and ask God for His blessings on our endeavours. At this Mass a number of our senior boys are commissioned as Special Ministers of the Eucharist – a powerful sign to the younger boys of their commitment to their faith. All boys have the opportunity to attend a retreat or reflection day throughout the year. The Year 7 Retreat, held early in the year, is especially important. It takes the boys on a journey that tells the story of our College. It is a story that begins with Jesus, is articulated by Blessed Edmund Rice, the founder of the Christian Brothers, is brought into reality today by the religious and lay staff of our College, and is ultimately handed on to every student who passes through our gates. It is a story that must be continued and the students are made aware of their sacred
responsibility to live the next chapter in a manner which pays tribute to all those who have gone before them. Inclusive Community The CBC community is a welcoming and inclusive community which promotes peace and harmony. Our boys are encouraged to see beyond their local world and embrace all people as their brothers and sisters. Our Kiwirrkurra Immersion to a remote Aboriginal community was the eighth such experience we have undertaken since 2005. This 10 day trip allows our boys the opportunity to experience Aboriginal culture and sit side by side with the traditional owners of our wonderful country. For the first time this year, the College organised an international immersion to the Philippines. Nine of our students were given the opportunity to travel to a remote part of the Philippines to work with the Christian Brothers who have recently started a Mission in the area. Maasin is a poor community in Southern Leyte, and the Brothers,
together with local staff, work in the areas of education, health, welfare and disability services. Our students spent eight days helping out in the various ministries and seeing first-hand the problems faced by people in the developing world. Maasin is quite close to the region that experienced earthquakes in October and the devastating typhoon in November. It is difficult to comprehend how these people can lose what little they already have. Justice and Solidarity Through the year we have called the boys to action and to stand in solidarity with those at the margins of our society. In Term 1, the boys were asked to donate just 68 cents per day for the 40 days of Lent. Although the target wasn’t reached by all students, it was a successful campaign and a sizeable donation was made to the Catholic aid agency, CARITAS. Proceeds from our celebration on Edmund Rice Day went to a number of worthy causes, including special support for Edmund Rice Camps that provide recreational
and developmental activities for children who would not otherwise have such opportunities. They also support children who are ‘at risk’ or experiencing various forms of disadvantage. Just recently, the Mentor classes were asked to put together a hamper to be given to a needy family prior to Christmas. There was an overwhelming response, with most classes providing more than enough for two families. The boys are to be congratulated for their support and their work to address issues of social justice.

CHRISTIAN SERVICE LEARNING Christian Service Learning is an integral part of the education of each student at CBC Fremantle. In giving of their own time, the boys seek to emulate the works of Blessed Edmund Rice and serve those who are marginalised in their society. This year began with the M68 Challenge for Project Compassion, with students demonstrating their commitment to those who reside in some of the world’s poorest communities by raising $9,216.60 to assist with their health, wellbeing and self-reliance. Students again gave generously on Edmund Rice Day, with a total of $10,610 being divided between Edmund Rice Camps WA, the Edmund Rice Centre in Mirrabooka, the Edmund Rice Flexible Learning Centre in Geraldton and the first CBC Philippines Immersion Tour.

Service, however, is far more than just providing financial support, and students continued to demonstrate their eagerness to get involved with those in need in a tangible way. Boys across all years maintained the College’s commitment to the local community by volunteering for a number of Red Cross initiatives, namely Good Start Breakfast at Hamilton Hill Primary School, Soup Patrol in Perth on Saturday nights, and donating blood at Fremantle Hospital. They took on the role of ‘technology teachers’ at Fremantle’s One Stop Shop and they worked tirelessly at this year’s City to Surf in support of Activ Foundation. There were also countless students who demonstrated their abilities to be ‘young men for others’ by giving their time at parishes and primary schools, around the home and in
their local neighbourhoods. These are only a few of the ways in which the boys of CBC Fremantle showed their willingness to learn and live the message of Christian Service in 2013. Teachers similarly demonstrated their commitment to justice and solidarity by taking time out of busy schedules to supervise students in a number of these Service activities. In doing so, they provided excellent examples of how to live a life that is ‘other-centred’. Their support is hugely appreciated, as without them a number of these programmes would not be possible. Service Learning Coordinator Ms Emily Bowran
LITURGIES AND RETREATS 2013 will forever be remembered as a special year for the liturgical life of the College, with the opening of the long awaited Blessed Edmund Chapel in early September. The commissioning of the Chapel has enabled us to dedicate an area in our College that we recognise as being a sacred space – vital for the development of any faith community. Liturgical life at CBC Fremantle is important as it reminds both staff and students that we need to gather as a community to pray and celebrate the good works of Christ in our lives. We are very fortunate that our College is one that gathers regularly throughout the year, for Thursday morning mass, as well as to celebrate key events throughout the liturgical calendar. First term greeted both staff and Year 12 students with a welcome mass at St Patrick’s Basilica. Then the annual twilight Opening Mass ceremony for our community was held in the beautifully serene College Cloisters where a number of Year 12 students and staff were commissioned as Special Eucharistic Ministers for the duration of the year. The Year 7 retreat was also in Term 1, where students were invited to share in the story of CBC Fremantle, in the Edmund Rice tradition. The busy term also celebrated Ash Wednesday as the beginning of the Lenten period, and the opportunity for some of our boys to attend Reconciliation as part of their preparation for Easter was followed by our formal Easter Liturgy celebrations. The feast day Mass of Blessed Edmund Rice concluded the liturgical celebrations of first term. In Terms 2 and 3, the College paid tribute to the importance of family
and assembled for a lovely Mother’s Day liturgy in May and Father’s Day Breakfast in September, as well as holding two Family Masses at St Patrick’s Basilica. There were also two very important retreats during these terms: the Year 12 ‘Choicez’ Seminar and the Year 11 Leadership Reflection Day, finishing with the Year 12 Farewell Liturgy. Early in Term 4, with the aid of the newly appointed 2014 prefects, Year 8 students embarked on their Virtues Retreat Day and Year 10s participated in ‘Beyond the Classroom’ retreat, conducted with assistance from The Salvation Army. The programme was designed to raise awareness of marginalisation in Australia and equip young people with the necessary skills to create change in their community. As part of The Rite Journey programme, all Year 9 students embarked on a retreat day of selfreflection as they continue their journey into manhood. This term we also officially farewelled and blessed all Year 12 students at their formal Graduation Mass. The end of the year is marked by a series of liturgies for each year group, but the last retreat is very special. Kairos is a four day residential retreat offered to our senior students to explore the role of God in the lives of young people and is proving to be a very powerful experience for all who attend.

“I AM AWARE THAT AFTER THIS JOURNEY ALL OUR VIEWS ON ABORIGINAL PEOPLE HAVE CHANGED FOR THE BETTER, NOW THAT WE HAVE TRAVELLED TO THEIR LAND. WE LEFT AS CBC BOYS AND RETURNED AS CBC MEN.”
ABORIGINAL RECONCILIATION This year has seen the creation of a new position in the College to coordinate all of the Indigenous activitieswith which the school is involved. CBC Fremantle is a Catholic School in the Edmund Rice Tradition and operates under the auspices of Edmund Rice Education Australia (EREA). All schools in this network are proud to adhere to EREA’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander policy which clearly outlines our responsibilities to our students and families. It is essential that schools know about, understand, appreciate and celebrate Indigenous culture. To this end, the College employs an Aboriginal Reconciliation Coordinator who works with students, staff, and also interacts regularly with families. Students are encouraged to take an active role in the activities that enjoy a strong reputation both within the school and in the community at large. Foremost among the values of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples is the value of respect. Reconciliation is built on the mutual respect of all. Integral to this is a

commitment to develop quality relationships where the rights and responsibilities of all are known, adhered to and respected.
and proceeded to set up our tents. When we came back, we sat around the campfire telling stories. I went to sleep straight away.
Some of the activities that the boys were involved in this year were:
In the morning all of us had to retrieve some dry leaves and sticks to keep the fire burning. After a nice serve of breakfast, we went for a hike to the top of Boyagin rock where we had some fresh water and learned about Chappi’s childhood. After, we painted some small stones with our memories of Boyagin. We then made axes to keep as souvenirs. A great time was had by all.
NAIDOC week in 2013 Celebrating history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, CBC Fremantle ceremoniously raised the Aboriginal flag and provided a range of activities for the students. Indigenous elders helped the boys to better understand Noongar history and culture through story telling and art. Thirty Year 9 students visited Clontarf Aboriginal College for the day, and Clontarf returned the favour by playing a game of football with CBC. Boyagin Rock Written by Yassin Albarri (Year 8): On Saturday 15 June, a group of Year 8 and 9 students departed for the Boyagin Nature Reserve campsite next to Boyagin Rock. When we arrived we were greeted by three Indigenous men: Chappi, Phil and Nev. We then ate some damper
Kiwirrkurra Immersion Written by Jake Harris (Year 11): We went to Kiwirrkurra in the hopes of teaching the locals, but we returned with the knowledge that they had taught us instead. I am aware that after this journey all our views on Aboriginal people have changed for the better, now that we have travelled to their land. We left as CBC boys and returned as CBC men.

Academic Excellence Programme AT CBC FREMANTLE WE SEEK TO OFFER EACH STUDENT EDUCATIONAL EXPERIENCES THAT CHALLENGE AND EXTEND THEM TO ACHIEVE PERSONAL EXCELLENCE AEP Coordinator Mr Andre Leicester
Our Academic Excellence Programme continues to grow and evolve to fulfil the intellectual needs of our gifted and talented students. The programme this year began with 47 selected students representing 8% of the lower school population. Each student was allowed to choose one or more of the six activities on offer: Maths & Engineering, Literature & Media, Future Problem Solving (FPS), Debating, Robotics and Tournament of Minds (TOMs). The growing popularity and respect for the activities led us to allow non-
selected students to join any of the activities on offer, making the programme more inclusive. Each activity had specific requirements and demands from the students which meant that the number of boys participating changed throughout the year. The selection process changed from the first year to create more consistent and unbiased criteria. Nevertheless, students who are not selected into the programme are still able to join any of the activities, provided their academic performance improves, which has proven to be a great incentive.
FPS AND TOMS

FPS has had a great year with excellent feedback from the review panel in NSW. The boys who were participating in this international competition worked very hard as a team, producing the four papers required for the year. Mr Simon Schmidberger’s contagious enthusiasm and the boys’ dedication have been the driving force behind the group’s success.
TOMs, on the other hand, had a challenging year. The specific competition criteria and time demands proved difficult for the boys participating in this activity, despite the ongoing commitment and enthusiasm provided by Mr Craig Carter. Based on this year’s experiences we will review our ongoing participation in this competition during 2014.
ROBOTICS Since the incorporation of Robotics into the AEP, the number of students interested in this activity has tripled. The increase of enthusiastic participants was met with optimism by Mr Hortense who acquired more equipment and arranged the teams to work independently and efficiently. Next year we will explore the addition of computer programming languages and microcontrollers to implement digital electronics into our ever-evolving robots. >>

MATHS & ENGINEERING Tuesday afternoon and the sound of students discussing the last digit in the number 2^2013, the maximum length of a bridge made with just three sheets of newspaper, samples of crude oil at different stages of refinement, torque, logic gates… These are students who want to design, develop, plan, check, improve, calculate and turn theories and ideas into real life. They want to make things happen! These are the members of the Maths and Engineering Club, students who are interested and gifted in these disciplines. Here they engage in opportunities to develop higher order thinking skills, solve problems and develop their inherent mathematical abilities, and they learn more about the many different kinds and facets of engineering. From a maths perspective, the students have taken part in three inter-school competitions.
Many hours have been spent tenaciously tackling maths problems collaboratively to practise for these competitions. Guest presenters have challenged and encouraged our future engineers. Mr Andre Leicester has introduced the students to Truth Tables and logic which lead to Binary Numbers and hence on/off switches, which are the basis for all microchip pathways and commands in computer circuits. Mr Geoff Buss has presented engineering problems involving torque and forces and shown the boys the 3D printer. Mr Simon Cloete, a mechanical engineer, ran a practical workshop on bridge building. Mr Paul Ziegelaar, a chemical engineer, explained the process of oil refinement and could answer virtually any question regarding “How does it work?” thrown at him. The students visited Gresley Abas Architects where Mr Alex Quinn and
Mr Phil Gresley spent the morning showing the students projects they had successfully completed and designs they were busy working on. They explained the engineering and maths facets of the creative design and building process. Boys attended a Careers in Mining Expo and gained invaluable knowledge about mining engineering as a career. During the third term the group spent a most interesting afternoon with Mr Richie Kuhaupt, who is a civil engineer turned sculptor. Mr Kuhaupt demonstrated how his sculptures combine highly creative “pushing the boundaries” skills with very exact mathematical and engineering designs. After this highly successful first year, it is hoped that the Maths and Engineering Club becomes a valued tradition at the College. Maths & Engineering Group Coordinator Ms Marilyn Schmidt

LITERATURE & MEDIA
DEBATING
This year the Literature & Media Group was formed and added to the College AEP programme. This group has quietly and diligently beavered away behind the scenes writing articles for the newsletter, Touchstone and the website. In addition to the group dabbling in the production of the College publications, the boys have let their competitive spirit and creativity fly by entering numerous creative writing competitions throughout the year. We began with The West Young Travel Writer competition, moved on to the Young Writers’ Contest, the Tim Winton Awards, Write For Fun Competition, CJ Dennis Literary Awards and the Sommerset National Novella Competition. This year we had a winner in our midst with Year 9 Keane Bourke placing second in the CJ Dennis Literary Awards with his short story Hydropobia.
In 2013, CBC entered Novice, Junior and Senior teams into two Debating competitions, the Western Australian Debating League (WADL) at Willetton Senior High School in Terms 1 and 2, and the Australian Heads of Independent Schools Association (AHISA) competition at Perth College in Term 3. More than 25 students from Years 7 to 11 competed in these competitions against some of Perth’s most academic and prestigious schools.
In addition to all this writing, the boys have embarked on two excursions. In Term 1 we visited The West Australian and Channel Ten where the boys had the opportunity to see how working media outlets are run and get some hands on experience with cameras and behind the news desk. Certainly the highlight of the year was listening to Channel Ten’s Narelda Jacobs speak about how she achieved success in her career. Thanks must go to Mrs Sandra Seman-Bourke for making this excursion possible. Next year we hope to see the group grow, expand our excursions and have more winning writers to emerge from the group.

Over the season our teams worked conscientiously preparing compelling and well researched arguments on a diverse range of topics such as: ‘Lance Armstrong has done more good than harm’, ‘We should change the Australian flag’, we should log old-growth forests and ‘We should ban reality television’, to name a few. Our teams put in strong performances to win 24 of the 35 debates we participated in, which was an outstanding performance by any measure. The Senior Debating team (Year 11) competed in a more rigorous and challenging style of debating where they were required to prepare seven-minute speeches and conduct points of information where they can interrupt or be interrupted by the opposition to clarify facts. Many of their debates are also impromptu, with the topic being provided one hour before. Our senior team of Anthony Iannantuoni, Liam Romano, Damon Sutton and Mathew Thomas had an extremely successful season and we are duly proud of their achievements and commitment to Debating at CBC Fremantle. We would also like to commend our new Year 7s for their Debating season. Many of these students had never debated before and embraced
the competition with enthusiasm and commitment, winning many debates. Our Year 8 teams also continued to achieve success, building on the skills they had learned in 2012. The Year 9s were also a force to be reckoned with during the debating season. Two teams competed in the Year 9 age group (Juniors), the first being seasoned veterans, consisting of Riley Faulds, Joshua Mascarenhas and Nathan Rowe. The second team were new to debating this year and was made up of Andre Carozza, Yusef Hourani and Joel Tomlinson. Both teams debated well, with one of them narrowly missing out on a spot in the finals. In Term 4, the College ran a Skills Workshop designed to build our Debating skills and strategies and assist those who wish to be involved in 2014. The workshop, run by accredited WADL Debating coaches, covered key areas such as developing a topic, constructing a case and rebuttal techniques. Students from Years 7 to 10 found the workshop useful and now have some constructive strategies and techniques that will give them a winning edge in future competitions. The College also ran some informal intra-school debates to further enhance the skills of the students. We look forward to another successful CBC Debating Season in 2014.

Arts THESE PROGRAMMES ARE ONLY SUCCESSFUL DUE TO THE HARD WORK AND COMMITMENT FROM OUR BOYS AND THE CBC COMMUNITY. Head of Arts Mr Shane Mancuso
The CBC Fremantle Arts department was kept very busy in 2013. We were very fortunate to have Mrs Stephanie Hantzis in charge of the Visual Art students in Semester 1, while Mrs Zoe Francis was on maternity leave. In Semester 2, Mrs Hantzis and Ms Francis have been sharing the teaching, providing our boys with inspiration, expertise, feedback and support for their art. Mrs Rosalba Jeffreys in Drama required hip replacement surgery during the year and Mrs Catherine Fry-Walker taught drama during her absence, keeping the boys working on their various tasks and performances. Our music staff had no changes this year and were full steam ahead for the various activities planned for our young musicians. There were many highlights from the year including attendances at Drama productions at both the State Theatre and His Majesty’s Theatres,
and exhibitions at the Art Gallery of WA and Cottesloe. Some courses offered to the students onsite included theatre sports and sword fighting. Sam Derchie, from Ghana, met with our Year 7 students to talk to them about his story and the musical instruments they use in their villages. Our annual Visual and Performing Arts Festival at the Fremantle Town Hall was very well attended and enabled the Arts to showcase outstanding works by our students. Inviting Old Boys to form a Big Band was an exciting way to finish off the evening and I appreciate their involvement. 2013 has seen our learning area invest in updating and purchasing equipment. Our Visual Art room now has a dedicated colour printer and plans are in progress to have a digital projector installed into the room ready for 2014. This will transform the teaching and learning pedagogy and give our Art students a more hands-on and interactive approach to their literature and artist studies.
Music was thrilled at the purchase of new band chairs specifically designed for musicians, and our music stands have also been given a coat of paint. The purchase of new amplifiers for our bass guitar and guitar students has enabled us to use up-to-date technology and help our students produce quality sounds on their instruments. I would like to thank Mr Shaun Kenny for his guidance and enthusiasm to see students involved in Arts activities at the College. Lastly, I would like to thank all of the families who have sons participating in our programmes. These programmes are only successful due to the hard work and commitment from our boys and the CBC community.

DRAMA In Drama it is always exciting because we do things that no one else does; we play! As we get older we play less and less and it is always delightful to be able to reintroduce our young men to the freedom and the learning experience of ‘play’. Year 7 students participate in Drama for one term. This year’s boys created non-realistic stereotypes from the Wild West. It was a very humorous experience for all of us; heroes and villains along with blonde heroines tied to railway tracks went down a treat. Year 8s have a little more time, one semester, so they were able to engage in creating a couple of pieces of work related to Greek mythology. Their understanding of play structure was tested in group improvisation where they learnt how to make their own plays and work together to produce an original interpretation
of a set story. When Zeus used his mobile phone from Mt Olympus to contact a mortal on Earth, his modern take on an ancient myth was a definite success. Year 9s have Drama all year and have completed a variety of tasks; Dreamtime stories, commercials and mystery style plays from the New Testament to name a few. Their modern interpretation on some parables were delightfully innocent and amusing for all of us. Year 10s have been challenged with realistic scripts and the physical skills of sword fighting. Though, on occasion I was a little anxious about letting them loose with weapons to attack each other, no one actually lost an eye or gained a limp and they all learned a lot about self-control and physical focus.
of theatre and plays. Even with this pressure, there has been time to perform along with the lower school groups in our successful Visual and Performing Arts Night as well as for the Catholic Schools Performing Arts Festival. All the performances this year have been focussed on raising students’ self-esteem and providing the participants in Drama with an outlet for creativity. I thank those students who have participated enthusiastically and given themselves, their peers and the CBC Fremantle community some joyful entertainment in and out of the classroom.

MUSIC 2013 has been a busy time in the music department at CBC. Students involved in the various bands, ensembles and choir have represented the College in many performances throughout the year, and have been outstanding gentlemen who have continued our great reputation for music in the local community. Our wonderful peripatetic staff are our department’s biggest asset, and I thank them for all of their hard work and dedication to see the boys do their very best. Mrs Emma Tandy, who works with me in our classroom programmes and also directs the College Choir, has been of great support to myself and the College. I would like to thank her for this commitment and for the great improvement in our singing programmes. 100
CBC ANNUAL 2013
In no particular order, some highlights from the year are: • Introduction of Singing programme for Year 7 elective rotation; • Great results in the Performing Arts Festival for Catholic Schools; • Jazz Orchestra performing at Clancy’s Fish Pub; • CBC Fremantle Visual and Performing Arts Festival (ViPA) at the Fremantle Town Hall; • Jazz at the Club Fundraiser; • Singapore Music Tour; • Music Camp at Woodmans Point; and • College Choir and Music Ministry celebrate Mass at Our Lady of Fatima 90 Year Celebrations. Our College Choir has had a strong influx of students and is helping to develop a stronger culture for singing in the school. Our upper
school students involved have been great role models for the younger boys and have now given Mrs Tandy a clear direction to take them to the next level. I hope to see future growth in this area in 2014. I would like to thank our hard working Music Parents’ Group under the leadership of Ms Pam Formby, who will be completing her presidency at the end of 2013. I thank Pam for her help and support for our Music events; I could not have completed all that is required without her input and guidance. Happy practising!

Ben Cooper’s (Year 12) mix media artwork won the Principal’s Choice Award at the annual art exhibition
VISUAL ARTS 2013 has been a year of creative and inspirational artwork for the students at CBC Fremantle, with the boys showcasing their work through a variety of displays throughout the school and beyond, including VIPA, the Angelico Exhibition and the CBC Visual Arts Exhibition. This year saw Mrs Stephanie Hantzis join the Visual Arts department, initially on a full time basis while Ms Zoe Francis was on maternity leave for Semester 1. In the following semester, the department welcomed back Ms Francis; the two teachers are now sharing the role and creating a new dynamic to the Visual Arts department. The boys across all year levels have experimented with new techniques and mediums, creating artworks that were bright, rousing and original. The Year 7 students, although only with us for one term, worked feverishly to create outstanding artworks from Howard Arkley inspired paintings using Posca Pens. They created oversized pop-art styled sculptures of chocolates,
doughnuts, cakes and even ice-cream cones, as well as beautiful watercolour totem poles. The Year 8 boys took a literal step in artistic shoes this year, fashioning some of the funkiest footwear seen, inspired by their summer memories. These boys also created picture books based on their favourite childhood toy as well as creating lino prints and paintings inspired by Eric Abel. These prints were an outstanding feature at this year’s exhibition. Year 9 was full of excitement and brilliant ideas. The boys took a journey under the ocean, creating their own interesting sea creature sculptures using wire, plaster and found objects. Skateboarding is very popular with the boys and this year they had the opportunity to paint a blank skate deck based on themselves and an inspirational or iconic figure. These boys also completed a printmaking task based on Eric Abel and the incorporation of ink work creating intricate mix media pieces.
Street art is very popular today and the Year 10 students were introduced to this art style, producing some very powerful pieces about controversial topics in society. These boys also created interesting Mambo styled paintings on perspex; this activity was challenging and the boys learned to manipulate gouache on an unusual painting surface. Art is often very personal so the boys were challenged to create posters about who they are. The boys learned many new techniques, including Riso printing. Year 11 is the first of the two senior years of the Visual Arts programme and the boys must not only create interesting visual artworks, but also maintain a sound understanding of the subject, the artists and the styles. This year the boys concentrated on two major projects, the first being based on architectural trends. The boys worked mainly in printmaking with the introduction of mixing other mediums into their final piece. The second project focussed on landscapes using Brett Whiteley as one of their influences. The boys >>

created some outstanding pastel reproductions of famous landscapes as a part of the preparation for their final artwork. Although only a small group of students, the Year 12s produced some very strong pieces and they were well represented at this year’s exhibition. The boys had to complete two main projects, the first being based on urban tribalism and the second on beauty and perfection (from a male’s perspective). Each of the nine students tackled these projects with originality and uniqueness. The boys worked using a variety of mediums and styles including printmaking, photography, painting, mix-media, draining and film making. Congratulations to all the students who participated in Visual Arts; your work and attitude was outstanding and it allowed us to provide a rich and engaging program for you all.

Black Swan productions. The Importance of Being Earnest challenged its audience in a variety of ways, while Death of a Salesman sparked off lengthy discussions in the literature classes.
This year, students produced blogs, audio/visual interpretations of great speeches from history, instructional videos, and stop-motion short film adaptations of legends and fables. Some Year 12 students produced their own 10 minute news bulletins, featuring a variety of story types and even a television advertisement.
The highlight of the week was the Staff versus Student Great Debate on Friday afternoon. A bumper crowd turned out to witness students Damon Sutton, Liam Romano and Anthony Iannantuoni take on Mrs Candice Brown, Mr James Schubert and Mrs Vera Moura in debating the topic Teachers Should Wear Uniforms. The teachers came out on top with watertight arguments being supported by irrefutable rebuttals.
Our Year 12 Stage 3 students were fortunate enough to be visited by journalist, author and human rights crusader, Estelle Blackburn, on the subject of her expository text, Broken Lives. Year 10s were also privileged to visit the local Fremantle Gaol as they tapped into the minds of some of the original prisoners of this iconic establishment. Students were required to write an historical letter from the point of view of an inmate, reflecting on the hardships they were forced to endure.
The result of these types of activities has been a more active engagement with the subject, as well as building a broader skill set.

ICT THE WORLD OF ICT IS MOVING AT A FRENETIC PACE AND THE ENTIRE COLLEGE IS RIDING THE TECHNOLOGY ROLLERCOASTER WITH GREAT ENTHUSIASM. Head of ICT Mr John Rear
This year CBC became a true 1:1 school with all students now allocated a laptop. This programme is now three years old and has evolved into a key component of the boys’ education. Over the journey we have had some issues but due to the extremely hard working ICT team of Mr Scott Barron, Mr Lachlan Byrd and Mrs Sonia Gaffney, CBC can now boast a robust and highly reliable service model that ensures the students and staff can maximise the great benefits presented by technology use at the College. It is no coincidence that, as our laptop programme has evolved and matured, the quality of work produced by students across all subject areas has been significantly enhanced by technology integration. Students in English, for example, have been able to express themselves in more diverse ways by using film, the internet and electronic publishing. Other
students are utilising the extremely powerful Adobe suite of products to create multimedia rich work that adds to their fine work in the more ‘traditional’ aspects of their education. They can now boast skills in areas including web design, animation, image manipulation, ePublications, movie making, special effects and the ‘Cloud’. These skills are vital parts of employment opportunities as we move further into the 21st Century and the students at CBC are leading the way into this exciting future. The College again showcased technology at the annual ICT Week. This year was a huge success with the highlight being the ICT Expo. Students were given the chance to have hands on experience with the latest laptops and tablets together with other interesting interactive teaching and learning tools. The boys also had the opportunity to talk with representatives from universities and TAFE regarding available courses and possible career pathways.
The film festival was again a key part of the week’s festivities with Mrs Fitzpatrick’s Year 8 boys showing their incredible movie making skills. Planning is already underway for an even bigger event in 2014. The world of ICT is moving at a frenetic pace and the entire College is riding the Technology Rollercoaster with great enthusiasm. There will be bumps on the way, but our commitment to making the education of our boys at CBC richer as a result of technology integration is stronger than ever. In the ICT department, we are looking forward to building on our solid foundations created in recent years.

Italian ITALIAN WEEK SAID IT ALL THIS YEAR – THE ENTHUSIASM AND JOY OF OUR STUDENTS PROVED TO US THAT ITALIAN IS ALIVE AND THRIVING AT CBC. Italian Teacher Ms Angela Calanni
Ms Lenzo and I are blessed with both enthusiastic and appreciative students of Italian. The numbers of boys studying Italian has grown over the last few years and our students seem to love the subject as much as we enjoy fostering in them a desire to appreciate all things Italian. So what have we achieved in Italian this year? Tantissimo! We will start with the many recipes passed on to our boys, from making bruschetta to a tiramisu better than Jamie Oliver’s. They also participated in the scrumptious lesson of learning to cook crostoli with Ms Calanni’s parents. The Year 10 boys embraced these cooking lessons with great gusto. What joy it was to see the boys prepare, devour and savour the sweet tastes and wonderful opportunities. Language Week gave everyone at CBC an opportunity to experience the delights of Italy first hand. We must thank Azzura Gelati for the ice-cream van which was parked at CBC for two days.

of ice-cream devoured, we can safely say this activity was a success! Once again we thank Frank Fazio for allowing us to show his film Restare Uniti, which explains how difficult it was for our forefathers when they left Italy and tried to embrace and be embraced by Australia. To consolidate our links to the Italian heritage in Fremantle, some of our students visited the Welcome Walls near the Maritime Museum. Many of our boys have grandparents listed on the Welcome Wall and this connection with CBC is particularly moving. The Year 11 students were blessed with an Italian exchange student, Alessandro, who shared his linguistic skills and cultural knowledge with the class. This proved invaluable to the general learning in the classroom. The bond between the boys was evident in the gift of the Docker’s jersey presented to Alessandro, who wore it with pride. It was with great pleasure that we received many comments from
parents delighted with their son’s linguistic knowledge at the end of Semester 1. The boys were practising their personal description dialogue at home with their parents. This sharing of their knowledge of Italian makes us as proud as the parents. This was reinforced this term with the many artistic contributions to the Italian classroom with the Year 7 dioramas. In the midst of all this we must not forget the Italian Tour. From gathering at the airport at 7pm on 25 September through to 13 October, words cannot express the utter delight experienced by one and all. Walking the streets of Trastevere in Rome, through to viewing The Last Supper in Milan, we were so proud of our boys. The spirit of cooperation and generosity displayed by our CBC gentleman throughout the Italian Tour this year left the staff speechless. No matter where we went or what activity the boys participated in, the feedback from the locals was glowing.

The Ideas Shop IN 2013 THE LIBRARY HAS BECOME AN EVEN BUSIER PLACE, WITH MANY STUDENTS STOPPING BY TO RESERVE OR REQUEST NEW BOOKS, AND SEEK HELP WITH MULTIMEDIA OR RESEARCH. Head of Library Ms Trevanna Cooper
We started the year with the popular Codebreaker Challenge, which was a sleuthing competition to discover snippets of school history. About 20 teams participated with the reigning champions yet again winning the competition. In Term 2, Ms Searcy ran a workshop teaching students to make websites in Publisher. She also made an avatar of Ms Cooper which was then used in a competition with our younger students called, What would Ms Cooper say? They were invited to put the avatar into a picture and write some words using the layers in Photoshop and library staff helped them to master this. In Term 3, Ms Eades ran a Claymation workshop. Students made plasticene figures which they then filmed using Claymation Studio. At the end of term, Ms Searcy challenged senior boys to drive the fastest lap on Gran Turismo, with the quickest winning a racing car driving lesson, courtesy of Adrenalin Super Cars.
2013 saw the introduction of some non-fiction ebooks and the purchase of a third movie camera. The green screen has been in popular demand and students are becoming more adventurous in developing their film editing repertoire. We were lucky to have a practicum student, Mr James Christensen, who has a background in Media, and he was able to give the boys some tips and challenges. Another visitor was 92.9FM radio presenter, Tyrone Thwaites, who talked to the radio boys about broadcasting techniques. They put these into practice when, as a spinoff from 89.2FM CBC radio, they formed Edmund Rice Productions to speak out for social justice. Keane Bourke and Alex Natale did a superb interview with Greens Senator Scott Ludlum, and followed it up by interviewing Br Steve Bowman from the Edmund Rice Centre in Mirrabooka. In fact, several people from the organisation were interviewed. They then uploaded the interviews to the internet. Before the end of the
year our radio station should be webcasting. The Idea Shop staff are also working on QR Codes for books that connect titles to reviews and book trailers. Here, books are definitely not defunct. Students are constantly recommending new books for our collection, and when something comes in, it has usually been checked out by lunchtime. Mr Stockton’s Technical Graphics class designed and laser cut acrylic shelf guides for the fiction collection. They are very colourful and the boys did a great job. We continue to skype Bindoon Agricultural College weekly and were happy to receive a visit from their staff. Next year, Ms Cooper has been invited to speak at the WA School Library Conference as to what makes a library popular. We asked one of our students this question. His response? “It’s where all the action is!”

Outdoor Education OVERALL, THE YEAR PROVIDED THE BOYS WITH SOME LIFE-LONG MEMORIES AND EXPERIENCES THEY MAY NOT OTHERWISE HAVE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXPLORE. Head of Physical and Health Education Mr Zachary Preston
Outdoor Education at CBC Fremantle provides students with the opportunity to participate in a variety of outdoor activities while learning valuable life skills and lessons along the way. In Year 9, students were challenged with units in surf lifesaving, mountain biking, navigation, roping and body boarding. In Year 10, students developed their skills and knowledge in snorkelling, fishing and rock climbing and also completed their Bronze Medallion in swimming as part of the course. In lower school there is a focus on the participation and enjoyment of activities as well as the education in risk management, sustainability, minimal impact practises and general knowledge. The highlight of the year was the Year 10 Outdoor Recreation camp at Woodman’s Point in Term 4. The boys used their fishing and snorkelling skills, participated in a
variety of group activities and had a great time. In Year 11, 1A/1B students started working towards their Certificate II in Outdoor Recreation. They completed a canoeing unit at the Marine Education Boatshed which culminated in a day paddle up the Swan River. In the second semester, students further developed their roping skills from Year 10 and completed an overnight expedition mountain biking on the Munda Biddi trail in Dwellingup.

2013 has been a very busy and productive year in the Physical and Health Education Department. The range of activities that students have had the opportunity to participate in during Physical Education, Sport Science, Outdoor Education and Health have highlighted the importance of a healthy and active lifestyle. These subjects also develop students academically and prepare them for their chosen pathway, either university bound or non-university bound, and include a Certificate II in Sport and Recreation. Across all subjects within the Physical Education learning area we emphasise the developing students’ interpersonal and self-management skills. Practical subjects also embrace these skills along with developing teamwork, game strategies and understanding the intricacies of the sports.

The lower school students in Years 7 to 10 have been involved in a wide range of sports including AFL, cricket, ultimate frisbee, hockey, tee-ball, soccer, modcrosse, basketball, badminton and tennis. The Year 10 students finish their Physical Education at CBC Fremantle being trained by Zendokai black belt Paul Woodhams in a variety of selfdefence methods. This was enjoyed by all students who looked forward every week to see what they would be taught next. Health The importance of Health Education at CBC continued to grow this year with students embracing the need for an active and healthy lifestyle. Topics included puberty, bullying, relationships, nutrition and healthy lifestyle, drug education and the ever more important mental health. The Year 10 programme also included Keys for Life, which looks at how to
be a responsible driver, along with the consequences of irresponsible driving. The unit finishes with the students sitting for their Learner’s Permit. Sports Science In Years 8, 9 and 10 Sport Science students not only learned about less mainstream sports like gridiron, Gaelic football, water polo, netball and squash, they have also started to prepare for upper school Physical Education studies. Students are introduced to the popular sport science industry that is so heavily relied upon in today’s sporting world. Students begin with fitness and healthy lifestyle in Year 8, then move on to the more complex topics of anatomy, biomechanics and exercise physiology. All these topics give a fantastic background into the students’ current sporting endeavours and also prepare them for future study should they choose
Physical Education studies in upper school. Physical Education Studies Stage 1 Year 11 and 12 Physical Education students have been doing their Certificate II in Sports and Recreation. The students have also been studying sports psychology and coaching methods and using the sports touch football, squash and badminton to help with understanding. The Year 12 Stage 1 students have successfully completed their Senior First Aid Certificate and enjoyed finishing the year learning how to surf at Leighton Beach. The Stage 2 and 3 ATAR students have been learning the principles of biomechanics and exercise physiology in sport with particular emphasis on volleyball and basketball. These particular units form an excellent building block
for their studies in Year 12. The year ended with a tour of the Perth Wildcats facilities, which included presentations by the new Wildcats’ coach and meeting the players.

New text books were introduced for Years 7 to 10 that fell nicely in line with the Australian Curriculum; Integrated Science, a new non-ATAR course, was introduced, and the Curriculum aimed at Year 10s changed so boys could begin to specialise in their 2014 subjects in Term 4.

Year 11 Chemistry students made a trip to the Chem Centre and Year 11 Biology visited Leighton Beach for a study on coastal succession and biodiversity, and also made a trip to Perth Zoo to look at various animal adaptations. The Year 12 Human Biology class also visited the Zoo to view primates and Year 11 Physics students spent a day at the Gingin Discovery Centre.
Incursions and Excursions
National Science Week
It is important for boys to place classroom theory into a real life science context wherever possible. This year, lower school students had diverse activities to complement their learning including Scitech, Western Australian Birds of Prey Centre, and a spectacular rocket show from the Gravity Discovery Centre.
Exciting events were planned every day to celebrate National Science Week. Monday lunchtime was Drastic Dissections, and boys screwed up their faces and held down their lunch as they watched a rat being dissected. On Tuesday Dr Holohan shook the Science block with his dynamic Pop and Bang Show. Wednesday was huge, with a Mentor Quiz, a Physics Open House at lunchtime, and the Year 9 cohort enjoying a Rocket Show with the Gravity Discovery Centre.
Integrated Science boys visited Fremantle Markets and Lush in Garden City to study the packaging and marketing of soaps and cosmetics. These boys also visited the Australian Chemistry Centre to 124

On Thursday, students and staff packed into the Chemistry lab to
view the finalists of the 60 Second Science Challenge, which involved boys filming a one-minute science experiment or documentary of their choosing. On Friday, many of our lower school students experienced an incursion from the Birds of Prey Centre. The boys were particularly delighted with Oska, a Barking Owl and Micro, a Wedge Tailed Eagle. Finally, there was the show-stopper that was Cool Chemistry, with liquid nitrogen displays and some of the boys even got to taste liquid nitrogen enhanced ice cream. International Chemistry Olympiad As a result of his performance at the Australian Science Olympiad’s Summer School at Monash University, Ben Anandappa (Year 12) was chosen to represent Australia at the International Chemistry Olympiad in Moscow. More than 70 countries participated in the competition, which involved two five-hour exams, one theory and one practical. Ben was awarded a bronze medal at the Olympiad; an enormous achievement.
Inspired by this experience, Ben felt that other students interested in Chemistry should have the opportunity to delve deeper into the subject. Year 11 students Anthony Iannantuoni, Liam Romano, Mathew Thomas and Solomon Wright committed themselves to participating in Ben’s classes on key concepts from the Australian Science Olympiad Syllabus. Congratulations to Anthony, Liam, Mathew and Solomon for their keen participation throughout the year, and we wish them every success. Competitions In Term 2 of this year, many of the students will recall sitting the National Science Competition. It is a paper that consists of 30 multiple choice questions written by the University of New South Wales, covering chemistry, physics, biology, human biology and earth and environmental science. The questions increase in complexity as the paper goes on. The following boys did particularly well, achieving Distinctions and High Distinctions. This puts some of them in the top
four percent of students in Western Australia. Congratulations to the boys awarded with Distinctions: Joshua Muir and Lachlan Yurak in Year 7; Riley Faulds and Emmanuel Terzoudis-Lumsden in Year 9, and Hamish Macpherson from Year 10. The Royal Australian Chemical Institute releases the National Chemistry Quiz on an annual basis. Students across Australia, Asia, and Malaysia attempt the paper that usually consists of 30 multiple choice questions. The questions rely on an understanding of fundamental chemistry concepts, and get increasingly difficult as the paper goes on. Congratulations to Year 11 Distinction winners: Marcus Di Biase, Benjamin Green, Mitchell Hinton, Zeus Greget O’Dea, Austin Main and Solomon Wright. High Distinctions were awarded to Year 11 students Matthew Costello, Coen Geaney, Anthony Iannantuoni, Liam Romano, Alec Sorgiovanni and Mathew Thomas.
went to Thomas Godsall, Riley Howell, Alessandro Monaco, Luke Prendergast and Jack Sunter. A final note The first day of Term 2 was filled with great sadness when we lost our teacher, friend and colleague, Mr Ben Foley. Ben had great energy and a top sense of humour, two musts for teaching boys. We have missed him terribly. Our hearts, thoughts and prayers go to Ben’s wife Eve, son Ry and the Foley family.

Society & Environment SOCIETY & ENVIRONMENT HAS BEEN HEAVILY INVOLVED IN PROVIDING STUDENTS WITH ENRICHING ACTIVITIES BOTH INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF THE CLASSROOM. Head of S&E Mr Craig Carter
The S&E learning area has had a great deal of success this year including a fantastic performance in the National Geography Competition. A significant number of students received Distinctions and High Distinctions in this competition and should be congratulated for their performance. CBC also competed in the State Debating Competition. This has been very successful with the school having a number of victories against highly rated opposition and has exposed a very large number of students to Debating. An absolute highlight of 2013 was the inaugural S&E week at CBC. We had medieval knights fighting, a Q&A with Western Australian politicians, a debate between students and teachers about reducing the voting age to 16 (which the teachers won) and various quizzes and competitions for the students. Students in lower school have been involved in a variety of learning

experiences both inside and outside of the classroom. Year 7 students have studied Ancient China and Greece, World Environments, Active Citizenship and skills such as Mapping. To complement this learning, they visited the Zoo and completed an S&E Amazing Race around Fremantle. The Year 8 students have been studying Planet Earth, Financial Literacy, the Vikings and Medieval Europe. The highlight of the Year 8 programme was the World Fair where students demonstrated their learning about different countries around the world. Year 9 students were involved in a number of valuable learning experiences in units including Law, Global Challenges and Australian History. These experiences were enhanced with a trip to the Francis Burt Law Centre in Perth and Fremantle Prison, observing the criminal justice system both past and present.
Year 10 students have been involved in a rotation of teachers and subjects where they have experienced Law and Government, International Conflicts, World Environmental Issues and Economics. They have also been actively involved in selecting Year 11 subjects from the Society and Environment learning area. The Year 11 and 12 students have been primarily involved in their particular learning pursuits within their courses. The Geography students have been involved in a number of required excursions and camps, including the Amazing Race around the City of Perth. Year 12 students have prepared diligently for WACE exams, and hopefully they will be accepted into their desired course in 2014. Sincere thanks must go to all the Society and Environment team who have worked tirelessly to give our students extremely valuable learning experiences throughout the year. They have achieved this through outstanding pedagogy and
dedication to their profession. Next year we are looking forward to continuing the implementation of the Australian Curriculum, the introduction of the new Business Management and Enterprise Course in the College and two exciting student tours to Gallipoli and Canberra, all of which will support the learning of all the students at the College.

Workplace Learning and VET THIS YEAR THE COLLEGE HAD NUMEROUS PROGRAMMES RUNNING INTERNALLY AND EXTERNALLY TO PROMOTE INDUSTRY LIFE SKILLS TO THE STUDENTS BEFORE ENTERING THE WORKFORCE. Head of VET Mr Garry Hart
With the reality of today’s students being required to stay at school longer, trade qualifications and work experience for our boys have assumed great importance in preparation for impending employment. Experience and training within the workplace begins when students commence their first placement. The students are afforded the opportunity to complete work experience in a supportive and safety conscious environment with the support of the College. After completing their resumés and finding their own work experience, numerous boys are able to experience the satisfaction of learning hands-on skills in the field of their choice. This year the ‘Try-a-Trade’ programme provided 16 students in Year 10 with the opportunity to
work in a simulated environment to demonstrate their expertise within the trades. The students chose tiling, plastering or bricklaying for three days, thus further guiding their career paths. At CBC Fremantle, we are currently offering the INSTEP programme or School Based Apprenticeships for Year 11 and 12 students. INSTEP involves students working in business and industry one day a week, learning and understanding the everyday requirements within the chosen trade. Some of the chosen businesses include plumbing, automotive, marine, veterinary, electrical, building construction and teacher assistants. By Year 12, the student works with their employer to complete their TAFE Certificate courses. This joint opportunity between the College, TAFE and local businesses can lead to traineeships or ongoing fulltime employment.
There were 76 Certificate II, five Certificate III and 15 Certificate IV courses successfully completed at the College this year including Engineering; Technical Graphics; Information, Communication and Technology; Sport and Recreation; and Outdoor Education. I wish to extend my gratitude to all of the businesses that have assisted in preparing our students for the workforce. With their continued support these opportunities can refocus and guide our students in their chosen career.

Technology & Enterprise CREATIVE INSPIRATION, LOGICAL APPLICATION AND PRACTICAL, HANDS-ON SKILLS WORK TOGETHER IN THE T&E DEPARTMENT. Head of T&E Mr Stephen Coggin
This year we have taken our Design and Technology curriculum to the next level with the inclusion of two new pieces of equipment, these being a 3D printer and a laser cutter. The inclusion of this capability into our curriculum allows students to take their design work to the next level, as they produce prototypes of their work or include laser engraved features on their projects. The Year 7 boys in particular, have been quite excited about designing iPhone cases, involving quite precise measuring of the phone dimensions to ensure a good fit. Another inclusion this year has been the development of an Architectural strand into the Design Technical Graphics courses. The software is industry standard and allows for photo realistic renderings of the building interiors.

The Wood and Metal work areas have included a Certificate II in both Furnishing and Metals and Engineering with the WACE courses and this has proved very beneficial to the boys as they move into postschool destinations. After taking the first half of the year off on long service leave, we welcomed Frank Williams back into the Food Technology area and the students have been producing some fine examples of the culinary art. I must mention the great effort of Ms Fiona Williams who filled in while Frank was enjoying his rest; Fiona has been a great addition to the team. It always astounds me the way the students often exceed the expectations of the staff of this department; our job is to give them the basics and they take it as far as they can. Many students
have displayed great potential as they develop the gifts and talents they have been blessed with. It is a pleasure to help these boys grow, and to watch the pride in achievement that they have with their finished work. I am sure many projects made in this department have pride of place in their homes.

Italian and Visual Art Tour YEAR 10 AND 11 ITALIAN AND VISUAL ART STUDENTS FLEW ACROSS THE WORLD FOR AN 18 DAY JOURNEY OF CULTURE, LANGUAGE, HISTORY, ART AND ARCHITECTURE IN BEAUTIFUL ITALY. Italian Teacher Ms Angela Calanni Visual Art Teacher Ms Zoe Francis
After two flights and a total of 17 hours flying time, we arrived in Rome and hit the ground running. Our tour began by exploring the Roman streets at sunset and making our way to the Trevi Fountain for our first of many gelato indulgences. The journey throughout Rome also took us to the spectacular and iconic Colosseum, the Vatican, Pantheon, Spanish Steps and new itinerary additions of the Crypts, Castle St Angelo and an evening at the very fashionable Trastevere. From Rome, our coach took us on to historic Pompeii and serene Sorrento, where we also enjoyed a day of relaxation at Capri. Next stop was the very quaint town of Orvieto, where the boys tried their hand at traditional Italian cooking, and then it was on to Florence, where the boys attended a Language and Art school for three days. We also experienced the fresh produce of the San Lorenzo gourmet food markets, the magnificent David at the Accademia, and the Ponte Vecchio, while the art students
134
CBC ANNUAL 2013
visited the Uffizi and were wowed by the Botticelli gallery collection. In Milan we were captivated by Da Vinci’s Last Supper and overwhelmed by the San Siro Stadium. The final stop was Venice, where we strolled through the back narrow lanes which lead us to the decadent Doges Palace in Piazza San Marco and the Ponte Rialto. Highlights for students included the artists’ bazaar of Piazza Navona, playing soccer against a young Roman Soccer Club team, the sturdy chair lift in majestic Anacapri, climbing the 294 steps to reach the top of the Leaning Tower of Pisa, visiting the Ferrari Museum, experiencing the inside makings of the Ducati and Lamborghini factories, the Venice by night Ghost Tour, the Peggy Guggenheim Museum and basking in a gondola ride along the canals of breathtaking Venice. Italy would also not have been complete without a shopping opportunity or two, eating too many Baci chocolates at the Perugina chocolate factory, indulging in nutella
crepes and several gelato scoops! The tour provided every boy with an incredible opportunity to appreciate all things Italian. The language students embraced the linguistic experience by practising their Italian at every opportunity, while the Art students took advantage to sketch, paint and photograph the awe-inspiring scenery of Bella Italia. Nothing compares to the thrill of immersion within a brand new environment, a wonderful rich culture, and the emotional, social and spiritual inspiration that occurs as a result. On behalf of Ms Calanni, Ms Francis and Mr Burgio, thank you to the boys for using every opportunity to revel in the delights of Italy and making this a memorable tour that will always be etched in our hearts.
The 2013 Italian and Visual Art Tour was an amazing experience that gave us an opportunity to immerse ourselves in the true Italian culture.

Although it went by so quickly, the sights we saw and adventures we encountered helped to shape an enjoyable tour for all; with the new friendships and awe-inspiring sights, it has truly changed my life in a positive way. It is very difficult to choose one great city, but I thoroughly enjoyed Florence with its unique lifestyle and many famous icons like David, all surrounded by friendly locals. I would like to thank all the boys who shared this experience with me; our parents and loved ones for their support; and of course the teachers, Mr Burgio, Ms Francis and Ms Calanni, for organising this unforgettable trip and making it the best holiday that will always be remembered.

Kiwirrkurra IMMERSED DEEP IN THE HEART OF AUSTRALIA, EIGHT CBC BOYS EXPERIENCED THE REMOTE LANDSCAPE OF OUR ANCIENT LAND, AND THE FUTURE HOPE OF AN ISOLATED COMMUNITY. Aboriginal Reconciliation Coordinator Mr Peter Baldry
This year a group of eight boys and two staff travelled to the remote community of Kiwirrkurra. Kiwirrkurra is not a community with majestic natural surroundings, or features that make it unique within the Australian landscape; it doesn’t have the boab trees, the 90 mile beaches, the tropical forests or the annual migration of the red crabs. Kiwirrkurra is located in the Gibson Desert with all its barrenness, inaccessibility and hostility. The community is populated by a small group of indigenous people that are striving to hold on to their culture and make a world for their children. Kiwirrkurra is one of our last chances in Australia to give each other the dignity we both deserve. The ‘handshake’ of our two cultures is based here. Nowhere on earth

CBC ANNUAL 2013
have people had the opportunity, whilst abiding by the laws of each culture, to learn so much, to build so much, to love so much and to work together for the betterment of this great nation. The objectives of the immersion were to: · Develop a perspective of Indigenous Australians. · Show greater empathy towards the plight of other Australians. · Develop a unique relationship and bond with peers based on a mutual understanding of the plight of the Indigenous Australians. · Develop a relationship and partnership with our friends at Kiwirrkurra which will extend into the future. The trip was a great success and I would like to thank Mr Van Dongen for giving up his time to help
coordinate the trip. I would also like to thank the boys who participated in the immersion: Lewis Grant, Jake Harris, Tyler Hellmrich, Jordan Johnson, Aidan McDonald, Broden Olivieri, Liam Rogan and Solomon Wright. They all had a great time and came back changed men.

While in Singapore the travelers performed at the Blu Jaz Café to an appreciative audience of locals and even some Perth visitors. The students had a unique opportunity to meet their Singaporean counterparts when they visited the Yio Chu Kang Secondary School and joined in their band rehearsal. The last musical activity of the tour was to participate in a combined rehearsal with the Thomson Community Big Band, which has members of all ages and was a great opportunity to make
contacts with various musicians from the Singapore scene. In addition to these fantastic musical activities, the group had the opportunity to see some of Singapore’s favourite tourist destinations. We experienced Universal Studios; Sentosa Island; Night Safari; shopping in the massive Vivo City; the largest aquarium and maritime museum in the world, Adventure Cove Water Park; Marina Bay Sands Sky Park, and Gardens by the Bay.
This tour would not have been possible without the generous support of the CBC Music Parents Group, which helped by subsidising the cost for each student to attend. A big thank you also to Mrs Emma Tandy for accompanying the tour.

Philippines Immersion ON SUNDAY 7 JULY, 16 CBC MUSICIANS FROM YEARS 10 TO 12 TRAVELLED TO SINGAPORE FOR A WEEK OF MUSICAL ACTIVITIES, SIGHTSEEING AND BEING IMMERSED IN THE AMAZING CULTURE. Year 11 Student Joshua Kestel
On 20 September at 5pm, a small group of CBC boys from Years 10 and 11 departed from Perth International Airport on a once in a lifetime experience. The nine boys and two teachers flew to Changi Airport in Singapore before embarking on a five-hour flight to Cebu in Southern Leyte in the Philippines. Cebu was crazy with traffic everywhere and the tropical climate bearing down on us. Driving through the city to the Paragon Hotel provided an interesting contrast between the rich and poor sectors of society, and showed us how closely these two extremes live on the small island. After we arrived at our hotel and made camp, we set about exploring the city and making our way to the amazing open-air church that lay in the heart of the city. The church was packed with people jamming against one another to get a spot in this amazing structure that is a beacon to the predominately Catholic society of Cebu. After Mass

we enjoyed a scrumptious western meal with Brother Paul Coster. The next day we arrived at the ferry full of anticipation for what lay ahead in Maasin. The ferry ride was calm and slow but with each boy being assigned a bunk bed and a deck of UNO cards courtesy of the teachers, no one was complaining.
15 and 16 year olds from the seminary. Arriving at the courts, we were greeted by a crowd of 500 students and the opposition were much older than expected. Although the CBC boys lost by a respectable 65-35, our spirits were not dampened and that night we enjoyed their first Filipino meal.
Arriving in Maasin, everyone was full of curiosity about what lay ahead. Once the ferry docked we quickly disembarked and were welcomed by all of the Christian Brothers. That night, after we dropped off our bags at our hotel, we ate at Alberto’s, which is the only pizza shop in Maasin. The meal was enjoyed by all of the boys, with meat lovers being the firm favourite.
The following day the CBC group went up into the hills of Maasin to a cooking programme run by the Christian Brothers. The programme was fantastic with local women learning the skills needed to make their own food products that could then be sold. The women were cooking all sorts of fantastic foods like banana chips, ginger tea, pulvoron and dansalan (sweet potato) chips.
We had breathtaking views of the coastline from the comfort of our hotel. The first day in Maasin, the CBC students took part in a local school retreat where we learned about the different aspects of life here. Following the retreat we were told that we would be playing a game of basketball against some
The CBC group was then taken to a local school, which was filled with shy but cheerful children. The school library was little more than a hut with a collapsing celling and a small bookcase with no books. This was an eye opening experience for us, seeing how these children didn’t >>

need material goods to be happy, they just enjoyed life, a quality that is sometimes forgotten in the more affluent west. The next day started with what felt like Perth’s annual rain fall in 10 minutes. The rain tipped down and the boys watched in amazement as it skirted across the streets. Luckily the downpour did not last long and we were able to visit Mama Mary, which is a massive statue of Mary overlooking the city of Maasin. This amazing figure is situated 230 steps up a steep slope that provided a great view of Maasin. We were surprised by the scale of the city; we were not expecting Maasin to be such a big place. Over the course of the following days we immersed ourselves in the culture of Maasin including visiting the eye and ear testing centre at the dock, calling in to schools and meeting the local children, walking through the local communities and seeing the poor conditions in which many of the population of Maasin reside. Throughout the trip, Mr Hart and Mr Dowsett continually made an effort to ensure the boys enjoyed themselves and really soaked up the atmosphere of the Philippines. One of the most notable activities that we took part in was climbing 560 steps to a cave church. By the time we reached the top, having been led up steepest of the two paths by our guides, most of us were suffering from ‘minor’ exhaustion. We were also taken on a day trip 142

to a secluded island, snorkelled on coral reefs and played a game of competitive volleyball with the Brothers (Brother Roshem being the most competitive by far). Finally, on the last night in Maasin, the Brothers invited the whole CBC group to the Seminary for a farewell dinner. Here, the students presented Mr Hart and Mr Dowsett with a Maasin basketball jersey as a thank you for the great experience. The Maasin immersion was a fantastic opportunity to see another part of the world and to experience a completely different culture. The trip provided the students and teachers with lasting memories.

English Teacher and Rugby Manager Ms Candice Brown T&E Teacher and Rugby Coach Mr Don McNamee Science Teacher and Rugby Coach Mr Paul Woodhouse
After landing in Queensland, the tour’s activities officially began at St Edmund’s College in Ipswich, where the boys were billeted out to ‘rugby families’. Some funny tales of killer-running turtles and other strange animals emerged the next morning at training, but our boys were fearless and braved the associated terrors of living in semirural Queensland! Our first game was a success, scoring our only victory of the trip. A fantastic and tiring day was spent at Dreamworld and then it was time to move to the new accommodation. We made our way over the road to Ipswich Grammar School, where we were to spend another two nights. The boys had a taste of boarding school life and many commented that it was quite a Spartan existence. We managed to fit in a trip to see the mighty Queensland at Suncorp Stadium, as well as playing a game against Ipswich Boarders. A trip to Australia Zoo signalled our move back up the coast to

Brisbane, where we were boarded with families from St Laurence’s College. The boys were impressed with the school’s facilities, including the rooftop oval, complete with fake grass. However, what was most impressive was how well they could shop in the urban jungle of Queen Street Mall. The game against St Laurence’s was tightly contested, but unfortunately we lost our lead in the final minutes and tasted defeat again. A highlight of the trip was our visit to Ballymore (the spiritual home of the game) to see a Reds’ training session. We even got to meet a player, and Mr Woodhouse left him with a lasting impression. After three days in Brisbane, it was time to travel north for the last game against St Columban’s, and then it was off to the airport and back to our families. It really was a great trip and there are many funny memories associated with Gummi Bears, delicious
slurpees, chants of ‘Woodhouse on three’ and long bus trips that we will all remember forever. We learned that the score is irrelevant – what matters is the joy of playing the greatest game on earth. The boys represented CBC Fremantle as fine young gentleman and we were proud to escort them on the tour.

Sport 2013 PROVED TO BE A YEAR OF SPORTING HIGHLIGHTS WITH CBC BOYS WANTING TO REPRESENT THEIR SCHOOL AND HAVE A GO. Head of Sport Mr Brendan McGrath
The House Sport programme gives all Year 7 to 10 boys an opportunity to compete with their classmates and challenge each other across a wide variety of sports. It’s great to see the red, green, yellow and blue shirts coming together and put in their best effort individually and as a team. All the Year 7, 8 and 9 boys have a chance to represent CBC in the annual ACC Lightning Carnivals. The boys have the option of playing either football, soccer, hockey or rugby and they thoroughly enjoy this opportunity. To see the teams move around and compete in a participation based carnival with the guidance of the senior boys is fantastic. At the annual Oblate Cup this year we were unsuccessful in retaining the title after four consecutive years of victory. It was a close competition and Mazenod College certainly had a more determined approach and were strong across all sports. They won the hockey, basketball, football and rugby, with CBC taking home the soccer shield. It was a fantastic 148
CBC ANNUAL 2013
day with both schools showing great sportsmanship and a willingness to represent their school with distinction. This year we were able to achieve our biggest goal: to win the Big Three. The ACC Swimming, Cross Country and Athletics Carnivals are the pinnacles of our sporting involvement throughout the year. Competing against the biggest and strongest ACC Colleges is a time when we put in our best teams and our sporting reputation is on the line. We again proved that our focus, determination and team spirit is difficult to reckon with after winning the three titles for only the third time in CBC history. It was a wonderful achievement by all the students, teachers, Old Boys and parents involved. The School Sport WA competition puts our teams to the test against schools from the PSA, government and ACC sectors, and we had some wonderful success. It is the dedication of the boys to want to represent the College which is the most pleasing aspect of these competitions. For
the first time the Year 7 Glory Cup Soccer team won the state-wide competition, and the Junior School Boys Australian Rules Football team won the cup after previously being unsuccessful in the Grand Final on numerous occasions. Congratulations to all involved with these teams; you have made your mark on the CBC Fremantle sporting history. A special congratulations must go to the boys who were recognised for their involvement in CBC Fremantle Sport this year and were acknowledged at the annual CBC Awards night. Their commitment to the team and outstanding results have them as worthy recipients: Swimming – Solomon Wright Cross Country – Nicholas Funga Athletics – Lachlan Fox Sports Service – Rhian Bore Sportsman of the Year – Nicholas Lomma. To all the coaches – which includes the staff, Old Boys and parents – I thank you for your guidance and leadership and for providing our boys with the opportunity to represent CBC Fremantle.

Our focus for 2013 was to be the most supportive team at the ACC Carnival. Father Tony Maher made this point during his blessing, and team Captain, Nick Lomma, reiterated the message as part of the team warm-up. Nick said, “We need to give it 100%.” All boys agreed to support each other as they all liked to be supported. With the help of Vice Captains Rob Mariano and James Rayner, it was great to watch this throughout the day. Our relay teams again produced some great results. They are to be congratulated on withstanding the pressure that is involved with these high point scoring events at the end of the Carnival. The individual Champion Athlete is awarded for each age group to the boy who wins the most points in their division. In 2013 we had four standout athletes who were recognised for the points they scored across all events and schools on the day.

Australian Rules Football 2013 WAS ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL YEAR FOR AFL WITH CBC FREMANTLE FIELDING A RECORD SIX TEAMS IN A VARIETY OF COMPETITIONS. Football Coach Mr Jason Matthews
The 1st XVIII, captained by James Rayner, had another successful season, finishing second on the ladder behind Clontarf Aboriginal College. Unfortunately, our finals campaign was short lived as we were no match for a strong and skilful LaSalle College team. The boys trained hard and will be looking for another opportunity in 2014.
156
This year saw the introduction of a 2nd XVIII team for the first time in CBC Fremantle history, to give more boys the opportunity to represent their College. The team played some excellent football throughout the season and represented CBC with distinction at all times.
The Year 8/9A side, captained by Zane Sumich and Riley Burke, created history this year by becoming the first CBC Fremantle team to take out the Eagles Premiership Cup. The boys were well-drilled and went through their competition undefeated, winning the South Fremantle district shield. They progressed through the finals series and met reigning champions Darling Range Sports College in the final, a curtain-raiser at Patersons Stadium. After a slow start our boys regrouped and played high intensity football to run away nine point victors and premiers for 2013. Ambrose Ryan was named man of the match and Aiden Zindani won player of the whole competition.
The Year 10 team once again proved a force up against a strong competition. Unfortunately, our boys were unable to progress through to the finals, but many got the opportunity to represent the College in the 1st and 2nd XVIII along the way.
The Year 8/9B side had a sensational year and went through their competition undefeated. Because CBC already has a Year 8/9 side in the competition, the B side unfortunately are not permitted to play in the finals. Their efforts this year were exceptional and
CBC ANNUAL 2013
they represented the College with distinction. The Year 7 side was looking for backto-back premierships this year but unfortunately were no match for a strong and fit Sacred Heart College in the Year 7 Grand Final. Our boys went through their competition undefeated, and were just beaten in a tough game at the end, and should be proud of their efforts. The future of football at CBC Fremantle is looking bright with so many dedicated and skilful young players coming through. The culture and commitment these boys have developed to each other and the College has been one of the main contributors to the success of our teams at CBC Fremantle.

Basketball 2013 WAS A STRONG AND SUCCESSFUL YEAR FOR CBC BASKETBALL WITH A FANTASTIC RESULT AGAINST EXTREMELY COMPETITIVE TEAMS. Basketball Coach Mr Brent Butcher
Basketball at CBC has never been better. The Senior Boys fielded two teams in the Harbour Cup competition, eventually playing against each other in the Grand Final, ensuring CBC would progress to the weekly knockout rounds. The team won their way to the quarter finals where they faced a strong Lumen Christi College team who prevailed with a hard fought victory. The team was well served by a number of Year 12 boys – Luke Beard-Miller, Jeremy Fletcher, Daniel Fosdick-McGrath, Sam Mudie and Lewis Pippet – who have been outstanding contributors throughout their time at the College. The Junior Basketball teams were once again extremely strong and, like their senior counterparts, both teams played off for the Harbour

CBC ANNUAL 2013
League Cup. The game was a tight tussle but the A team fought hard for a well-deserved win. This provided the boys with the opportunity to compete in the Champion Schools finals at the WA Basketball Centre. The carnival was extremely competitive with many specialist Basketball schools contesting the title. CBC lost their first game but then rallied to win the next three, giving them the right to play powerhouse Willetton Senior High School in the final. The team matched baskets with Willetton early in the first half but as the game progressed the boys were out-muscled and overrun by a welldrilled side; CBC finished runners up, which is an outstanding result. The Year 7 Basketball side is very talented and they made back-to-
back titles when crowned the best team in the state last year for the second consecutive year. A special mention and congratulations to Matthew Vinci (Year 11) and Zachary Harris (Year 7) who both represented Western Australia in the School Boy Championships this year.

Cricket A GOOD START TO THE SEASON WITH A NUMBER OF NEW PLAYERS GIVING CRICKET AT CBC IMPETUS FOR THE FUTURE. Cricket Coach Mr Zachary Preston
The 2013 1st XI Cricket team had a tough year in the Graeme Wood Cricket Competition. After receiving a draw with only two games in the preliminaries, it was going to be difficult to make it out of the pool rounds. The season started well with a promising bowling display from the boys against Leeming Senior High. Unfortunately, an early batting collapse and the inability to put partnerships together resulted in CBC going down to Leeming.

CBC ANNUAL 2013
Round two saw CBC have a bye and the third round put us up against arch rivals Corpus Christi College. Several of Corpus Christi’s players put on a power hitting display which our boys tried hard to restrict, but ended with a big run chase ahead for CBC. This time we got off to a good start but a slow trickle of wickets throughout the innings caused CBC to run out of overs to chase the large total. Even though it was a very short 2013 campaign the boys tried their very
best and always played with true CBC spirit. Congratulations to Joel Bennett, David Gaynor, Austin Main, and Tom Weston who all debuted in 2013. With the number of debutants this year, 2014 looks to be very promising.

Cross Country THE CBC CROSS COUNTRY TEAM HAD AN OUTSTANDING YEAR. THE COMMITTED BUNCH OF BOYS TRAINED LONG AND HARD FOR 12 WEEKS WITH THE AMBITION OF CLAIMING THE ACC TITLE. Cross Country Coach Mr Adrian Correia
CBC had tasted success in 2010 and, after finishing in second place the past two years by the narrowest of margins, the boys were eager to reclaim their mantle as the number one ACC Cross Country school.
This was never going to be more true than on the day with torrential rain and strong winds making it extremely difficult for running. However, this would not faze our boys who were ready for anything.
Thank you to Mr Brent Butcher, who assisted me at training, Mr Jason Matthews, who supported us on the day, and to all the parents who got out of bed early each morning to get their boys to training.
Captained by Alexander Ricciardo, the team had the perfect preparation with the State All Schools being held the week before the ACC Carnival. CBC finished second to Sacred Heart by only five points, with Nicholas Funga and David Cecchi finishing in the top 10, making them eligible for state selection.
CBC fought hard all day with some great results in each age group. The depth in our squad is what sets us apart from the other schools, with the majority of our runners finishing in the top 50 out of more than 350 competitors. It was great to see many boys achieving personal best times and improving significantly from their places last year. In the end, the boys finished in the top four in each age group and won the Under 14 and Under 16 age groups. This lead to an overwhelming victory of 120 points which converts to 120 places on the day.
It has been a great Cross Country season and I look forward to the challenge of going back-to-back next year.
Our performance at the All Schools competition was encouraging considering we had a number of our top runners out on the day. Knowing the talent to come into the side, the boys were confident they would go one better at our main event – the ACC. All season we had talked about mental toughness being the key to success in long distance running and that those who were willing to push themselves the furthest would achieve the best results. 168
CBC ANNUAL 2013
The win was a testament to all the hard work the boys had put in, not only this season but in the previous two years where we fell heartbreakingly short. The win meant a lot to the boys and to see the passion they showed after the result was announced was fantastic.

Hockey AFTER WINNING THE ACC HOCKEY CHALLENGE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN CBC’S HISTORY IN 2012, THE COLLEGE TEAM WERE READY TO DEFEND THEIR TITLE IN 2013. Hockey Coach Ms Shayni Nelson
Although two of the team’s best senior players had left at the end of last year, the other boys were prepared to take up the spots they had left. After a few weeks of training, it was decided that there would be an A and a Development team, the As going to the Metro tournament and the Development side attending the country division in Mandurah.
other schools’ teams composed of Year 11 and 12s. A goalie was found, Year 8 Tom Moulin, who looked to have some good potential. The team was co-captained by Year 12 Bill Golding and Year 9 Riley Faulds. The Development side was made up of mainly Year 7s, with some older players as well. This team was led by Year 11 Tom Mansfield and coached by Mr Ross Websdale.
Two weeks before the ACC Hockey Challenge, Ms Nelson organised games against Aquinas College, one for Year 7/8s and the other for 9/10s. Aquinas was the reigning PSA champions with numerous state players, so we were eager to prove ourselves against such a strong competition. The CBC Year 7/8s put up a good fight to only lose 4-3 and the 9/10s played extremely well to come out on top, winning 4-1. From these wins we gained some more confidence and the team were ready to go into the Challenge.
Our first game of the day was scheduled against Peter Carnley on the grass fields outside the Stadium. However, Newman College pulled out, leaving the synthetic turf free for our first game! We had been placed in Pool A, with our hardest opposition due to be John XXIII, who we had narrowly beaten in the semifinal the year before.
The A team was made up of numerous Year 8 to 10s, one Year 7 and only one Year 12, with most

CBC ANNUAL 2013
The match began and the tone was set early, with CBC having the majority of possession. The first goal was scored by about the 10th minute, through key striker, Year 8 Harry Golding. We had multiple penalty corners and didn’t manage to find the back of the net, until one
mis-trap from our corner offense spilled the ball to Riley Faulds, who smacked it through the keeper’s legs to make the score 2-0. With 10 minutes to go in the 30-minute game, we still had almost all of the possession in our forward half. A good passage of midfield play ended with Year 9 Ryan Pace trapping the ball in the goal circle and making a reverse-stick slap to end the game at 3-0. The next game was also on the turf, against St Stephen’s, who had come off their last game with a 4-0 win over Kingsway. Again, CBC started well, with Harry Golding finding a way past the keeper to score early, following up with another goal a few minutes after. Some good play from St Stephen’s resulted in a penalty corner against CBC and St Stephen’s converted with a good shot past our keeper. CBC woke up after that and won several short corners, from which playmaker Bill Golding was unfortunately unable to score. However, he eventually found the backboard in open play, scoring his first goal for the tournament. Harry
Golding scored again late in the game, ending it 4-1 in our favour. After a bye in the next round, we moved on to the other turf field to play Kingsway. The next game was predicted to be an easy win, with Kingsway coming off two losses, but we knew that we still needed to play to our best. However, they proved to be a difficult opposition and it wasn’t until halfway through that we managed to open our scoring. They retaliated, however, and levelled the game but fortunately we managed another to scrape a 2-1 win. The team moved onto the grass fields to face a John XXIII team of Year 11/12s who all played a high level of hockey in the club leagues. The game was tough from the start but we managed to string some passes together on the poor surface and win a few short corners. However, the opposition’s strength prevailed with the game ending 3-0 in their favour. Ending up second in Pool A, the next game was the semi-final; the CBC
boys set to play Corpus Christi, the number one team in Pool B. The game was close throughout, but CBC had the better of the play for the most part. The Corpus team had a few big and skilful players who often hit the ball hard into our defensive circle, really putting the pressure on our fullbacks.
at 3-2, Eddie Swan unfortunately had his flick saved. This meant that if Tom could save the next shot, we had won, but if it was scored, the flicks continued into sudden death. The Corpus player lined up and made a good flick, but Tom made an excellent save and we celebrated a great win!
The game ended at 0-0, even after many penalty corner opportunities going our way. The game went on to extra time and, after a scare when the ball was hit into the goals from outside our circle and the umpires tried to determine if it had been touched, the game ended and progressed to penalty flicks, just like it had in the semi-final last year. Bill Golding stepped up for the first flick and was too accurate: he hit the post, the ball bouncing out. The Corpus player scored and the pressure was really on. Harry Golding had no problem putting the ball in and Tom Moulin made a good save to level it at 1-1. Both Riley Faulds and Ryan Pace scored their flicks, while only one Corpus player managed a goal. The scores our way
We began the Grand Final against John XXIII and played fairly well, with a couple of opportunities and one open goal, which was only just saved by a JXXIII fullback. However, the opposition were just too good in the end, managing to defeat us again with the same score, 3-0. Although we didn’t manage to come off victorious, CBC Fremantle’s Hockey programme is looking good; two Grand Final appearances in two years is a great achievement and the future is bright for the team.

Rugby A PROMISING SEASON FOR CBC RUGBY WITH SOME REAL ACHIEVEMENT AND DETERMINATION ACROSS ALL LEVELS. Rugby Coach Mr Don McNamee
The 2013 Season started early in February to prepare the 1st XV for a tour of Queensland, with four games planned against high quality competition. The team performed well; they were playing some very strong opposition. They succeeded in beating St Edmund’s Under 16 C/B mixed in a very close game, with John Hayes scoring in the last minute to seal the result. Our next game was a very one sided affair with Ipswich Grammar Boarders proving far too strong for us. Game three saw us take on St Laurence’s College in a very tight

affair, and only losing the lead in the final minutes. On the way out of Brisbane we took on the 1st XV at St Columban’s, who were three or four levels above our playing standard. During the season the boys performed well and the 1st XV won more than they lost. The Year 10s had a great competition, with some new players coming to the fore and showing their talent. Year 9s had a disappointing year but the boys kept playing their best to the end. We had a combined Year 7 and 8 team, which really started to enjoy their Rugby, finishing the season
with a nice win over our old rivals Corpus Christi. The new year bodes well for these young players and we look forward to seeing what they are made of. The end of the season was celebrated with a breakfast at the Left Bank where the awards for 2013 were presented.

Sailing THERE WAS A SMALL BUT DETERMINED SAILING TEAM THIS YEAR THAT RACED WELL, BUT WE DID NOT ACHIEVE THE GREAT RESULTS OF PAST YEARS. Sailing Coach Mr Marius Van Dongen
Numbers were low with Sailing at CBC this year, which made it difficult to assemble a team with experience and depth. Also, due to a number of factors, some of our experienced sailors were unavailable to compete. It was the unselfish nature of two members of our previous sailing team who rearranged their holiday booking that allowed CBC to be represented at the School Team Regatta. Our training sessions were intense as time was short. With the help of Stefan, a member of our team in 2012, who made himself available at all training sessions as well as coaching the team during the regatta itself, the sailors were able to approach their races with a degree of confidence and skill. The team sailed each race with a high level of determination and true sportsmanship but unfortunately we did not achieve our normal high scores of previous years. We look forward to 2014 and hope to encourage more sailors to take us into the future. 182

Soccer A FANTASTIC PERFORMANCE FROM OUR YEAR 7 SOCCER BOYS WHO FOUGHT HARD TO WIN THE GLORY CUP. Soccer Coach Ms Petrina Brewer
YEAR 7 GLORY CUP Twenty-one enthusiastic and talented Year 7 boys made up the first CBC team to ever win the Glory Cup. The squad trained weekly throughout Term 2, coached by Ms Petrina Brewer, Ms Carol Denny, and Year 11 student, Rhian Bore. On Friday 2 August the boys outplayed seven Southern Regional teams to win the Jason Petkovic Cup. The boys chalked up an outstanding goal difference of more than 40 goals whilst conceding only one, which secured them a place in the finals for the Glory Cup. On the evening of Friday 9 August, the boys convincingly won all three of their finals games to secure a spot in the Grand Final against Irene McCormack Catholic College’s Year 7 Football Academy team. With 42 schools in the competition, it was down to CBC and reigning champions Irene McCormack for the second consecutive year.
Irene McCormack gave CBC the toughest challenge of the competition, playing a solid first half that finished 2-1 to their advantage, with CBC’s only goal resulting from a penalty taken by Ryan Creighan. CBC fought back in the second half with some strong defence and an equalising goal from Tiago de Souza that sent the spectators into a nailbiting frenzy as the end of the match drew near. In the final 10 minutes, two moments of goal scoring brilliance from Ben Parker proved to be the difference between two very even sides. In CBC’s third year of participating in the 10 year competition, the Year 7 Soccer Team won the Inaugural Stan Lazaridis Glory Cup with a final score of 4-2.
Valuable Player for the match for his tenacity and many thwarted attacks on the Irene McCormack goal. I would like to congratulate the entire squad for their efforts, as well as Year 11 student Rhian Bore, who assisted throughout the competition.

Surfing EARLY MORNING TRAINING SESSIONS IN THE COLDEST MONTHS ONLY INCREASE OUR BOYS’ COMMITMENT TO THE ART OF COMPETITIVE SURFING. Surfing Coach Mr Jason Matthews
The 2013 Surfing Team started training at the beginning of Term 3, with early morning sessions at local beaches from Fremantle to Scarborough. The weather this year produced some excellent conditions with students treated to quality waves and good weather almost every session. Our team competed in the WA School Surfing titles held at Trigg Beach and were up against some tough competition from the north of the river Colleges. Unfortunately, the day didn’t produce the large waves that we have become accustomed
to, but gave us the opportunity to display our skills on smaller, more difficult sets. Throughout the day, our boys represented the College with distinction, with all teams progressing through their first heat. Congratulations to the junior boys’ surfing team of Alex McGuffin and Tom Corrie, who progressed through all their heats and earned a spot in the state finals. The boys later competed at the state title and produced some excellent scores, but were no match for a strong Denmark Senior High School who narrowly won the heat.
This was a special year for the boys and Jacob Lane did a fantastic job as the Captain organising the team and developing the close bonds within the group. We look forward to more early starts and good weather in 2014 and a chance to improve on our results from this year.

Swimming 2013 PROVED TO BE ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL YEAR FOR THE SWIM TEAM WITH THE SPIRIT SHOWN BY THE GROUP PLAYING A LARGE PART IN THEIR SUCCESS. Head of Sport Mr Brendan McGrath
Swimming Captain Michael Zoiti led the way with spirit and hard work at training and had strong support from his fellow senior students, which brings a positive response from the younger boys in the team. At the House Carnival the boys had their first chance to put themselves to the test. It was fantastic to see them push each other and do their best for their House group. Congratulations to the large number of boys who produced outstanding swims and set new CBC records. At the Quad meet our team were put under pressure to perform on the ‘big stage’ up against some PSA schools. The boys finished a close third behind Hale and Aquinas, which is a great effort. Congratulations to all the boys and to our Quad meet record breakers, Rafael Cipriano and Jack Smith. At the ACC Carnival our boys were well prepared and the depth of our team again proved to be the difference. Of the six Division II relays, we won one, had two seconds and two thirds. The Division I relays 188
CBC ANNUAL 2013
were just outstanding. Of the six relays, we won four, breaking three ACC records, came second in one and third in the other. This is an amazing result and is testimony to the pride and determination our boys have in competing for themselves and CBC Fremantle. Congratulations must go to the boys who were top scoring competitors in each age group. These boys swam in a number of races, scoring many points for the team, and would have been exhausted after putting in so much effort throughout the day. Following the ACC Carnival, the inaugural Swimming WA All Schools Qualifier was held, which the top swimmers from all schools in WA were invited to compete in. A special mention must go to Jack Swainson and Rafael Cipriano who represented CBC in this event; these boys did well in their events, making the State Schoolboys Swimming Team. They competed at the National All Schools Swimming competition in Adelaide. A special thank you must go to three people who supported the team
during the 16 weeks of training throughout the 2012/13 season. Mrs Jenny Wilson in the canteen starts work extra early on each morning of training to ensure our boys have breakfast on their arrival at school. It is a huge demand on her time and on behalf of the boys we’d like to thank her for her support. We are also very fortunate to have Mr John Rear help coach the swim team. Mr Rear has many years of swimming experience and this has allowed us to add variety to the training sessions, helping the juniors especially. His knowledge and expertise in swimming has been fantastic and has been a huge asset to the team. Thank you also to Mr Stephen Hunter who is involved in the management of the team. It was another really rewarding year for the CBC swimming squad where we have a good mixture of hard training and having fun. Although the season is long and the mornings are early, it is an enjoyable time for the boys and the coaching staff.

Tennis A HIGH STANDARD OF TENNIS WAS PLAYED THROUGHOUT THE YEAR GROUPS, WITH CONSISTENT PERFORMANCES AGAINST SOME QUALITY COMPETITION. Year 7 Tennis Coach Ms Lisa Tognolini Junior Tennis Coach Mr Barry Tognolini Senior Tennis Coach Mr Joel Moss
YEAR 7 ACADEMY PLATE TENNIS TOURNAMENT On Tuesday 19 March, 10 dedicated Year 7 boys travelled to the State Tennis Centre to play in the Academy Plate Tennis Tournament. With four weeks of training under their belt they were eager to take on the world. This year, the tournament was split and played at two venues due to the large number of teams, so the boys were up against some fantastic players. CBC Team A comprised Tim Bayley, Joe Bird, Ari Brierley Figureiredo, Mitchell Pace and Riley Rees-Turner, and they played some beautiful tennis. They did not lose a match all day until the semifinals, where they came up against Rosalie Primary School, who was just too good. The boys in Team B – Jess Davie, Tyler Dionisio, Oakley Monument, Josh Muir and Harry Rosenthal – also played some great tennis and came second in their pool.

The boys should be very proud of themselves; they represented the school with pride. There were a lot of comments congratulating me on the way they behaved and their general demeanour. Well done boys!
HERBERT EDWARDS CUP In March, CBC entered three teams in the State Schools Teams Tennis Competition. The three teams were placed into Pools and played against three other schools at the State Tennis Centre for places in the finals. Team 1, consisting of Harry Bird, Thomas Brewster-Jones, William Power, Ambrose Ryan and Jacob Toomath, won two matches and advanced to the quarter finals of the consolation. Here they were pitted against Applecross Senior High School, which is the premier tennis school in the state. The boys played well and were extremely competitive, but succumbed to the experience in the Applecross team.
Team 2, made up of Lachlan Blakiston, Caiden Guidi, Ben Radonich, Nicholas Tucker and Tony Ziegelaar, won one match in the pool and did not advance any further. Team 3 with Tim Bockman, Ben Bockman, Alex Gray, Finlay Martin and Samuel Sheridan, did not win a match, but came very close against some stiff competition. Congratulations to all boys who participated for their tireless efforts on a hot and long day that started at 7.15am and finished at 5pm.
YEAR 10-12 SLAZENGER CUP/MURSELL SHIELD Despite a wet and windy start to the day, the selected 10 students from our six weeks of trials headed to the State Tennis Centre to compete in the annual inter-school competition. The tournament starts with round robin matches between four schools, followed by a knock-out event for the first and second school in each
group. Our first team of Jordan Filippin, Fraser Hayward, Anthony Lomma, Simon Smith (Captain) and Tyler Sorrell, performed brilliantly to win 16 of a possible 18 matches and finish top of their group. Unfortunately, the reward is a berth in the stronger Division 1 knock-out stages, where they were beaten 4-2 by Perth Modern, a strong team featuring two state level players.

The second team of Matthew Dart, Ben Dixon, Nick Gordon (Captain), Conor Noonan and Luke Prendergast, also performed well, winning two of their three matches, and only losing the third match by two points. As a result, they finished second in their group but also lost 4-2 in the first stage of the knock-out event. As always both teams performed to a high standard. A special mention of Simon Smith, who has competed in all his five years at the College and gets better every year, and also Luke Prendergast and Tyler Sorrell for remaining undefeated during the day.

Water Polo CBC HAS AGAIN PROVEN TO BE ONE OF THE STRONGEST WATER POLO SCHOOLS IN WESTERN AUSTRALIA, WITH ANOTHER UNDEFEATED YEAR. Head of Sport Mr Brendan McGrath
We continue to have an impressive number of boys playing at the Melville Water Polo Club who bring their skills to represent CBC with distinction. In Term 1 our boys were again asked to play Aquinas College in what has become an annual test of both schools ‘fire-power’. CBC proved to be too strong, with Captain Andre Rebelo showing the difference between the two teams, and Jake Leavy and Liam McMahon proving great support against their bigger players. Late in Term 3, the senior boys played in the School Sport WA Carnival at Challenge Stadium.

CBC ANNUAL 2013
Due to exams, the Year 12s were unable to take part in the competition, which had no effect on the two teams entered by CBC. Our confident A side was made up of Year 10 and 11s, who took gold in the School Sports WA competition with convincing victories in all their games. The CBC B side was made up of Year 8, 9 and 10s. This young group of boys finished fourth, which illustrates the depth within CBC. We look forward to the future of Water Polo within the College. In Term 4, the junior teams will play in the School Sport WA competition and we are expecting some good results to be achieved by the next group of players to come through.
It is great to see our boys represent CBC with distinction and challenge each other to continue our outstanding results in this sport. In 2014 we will be looking to offer more opportunities for the Water Polo boys with some more games against the PSA schools.

Symbols of our Journey YEAR 12 STUDENTS MICHAEL ZOITI AND RILEY TOLMAN EACH CHOSE A SYMBOL OF THEIR JOURNEY AT CBC FREMANTLE FOR THE CLASS OF 2013 GRADUATION CEREMONY.
FRIENDSHIP In choosing a symbol which represents my time here at CBC over the past five years, I tried to think of something that reflected the many ups and downs associated with such a journey. I had to think of a symbol that not only relates to my time here but everyone’s time at the College. The symbol I chose is friendship. To me, a friend is someone who knows all about you and is willing to help you with anything. A friend is someone who you would never give up on, and would never give up on you. Friends are there when you need them the most, when you need someone to talk to, when you need someone to watch your back and to hang out with. A friend is someone you trust. Most importantly, a friend is someone who shares your joy when you are successful.
200
CBC ANNUAL 2014
When I started here all those years ago, CBC was a new place, hundreds of unfamiliar faces and people, most of whom were double my size! When I first began here at CBC Fremantle, I didn’t know a lot of the boys sitting in front of me; the task of making new friends seemed a daunting challenge. What seemed daunting proved to be easy, as we bonded immediately as a Year group, with many sub-groups. By the end of the first year, I think we all understood that CBC Fremantle was a special place where the bond of brotherhood simply evolved. CBC made it so easy to make new friends. We have all made friends, not just in our own year, but in the older and the younger years and even with the teachers. When we first arrived, we had our Year 12 buddies helping us out, making sure our first year was as easy as possible as we settled into new high school
life. We found that Mentor Group, sporting carnivals and training, Edmund Rice Day, College tours, Immersions and camps and even our time in the classroom, provided us with opportunities to make friends. The image on this page is a typical scene in the College, boys with their arms around each other’s necks, publicly expressing their bond of friendship. The feeling of being part of a family is reinforced by the way Mr Kenny is there to farewell us each afternoon at the gate. He makes sure we are ship-shape in our presentation, asks us how our day was, and welcomes us back for the next school day. I doubt whether this is a common feature in secondary schools, but it demonstrates from the top down that this is a school that values relationships, that fosters respect and enhances our ability to see the good in others. At CBC we have felt loved, and as a result
have been able to love. We have made lifelong friendships and lasting memories. Don’t forget the great memories of CBC, especially those with your friends. Don’t forget the hard times when your friend was there and most importantly don’t give up on your friends after school has finished. Throughout our time here we have had the ups and downs, but in true CBC style we have stuck together and bonded like a band of brothers. Michael Zoiti
CHAPEL The image I’ve chosen to be the symbol of my time here at CBC is the Chapel. When I came to CBC in 2009, Edmund Hall was not a Chapel, it was a room; just four walls with nothing special in it, a lot like me, someone who was beginning the journey to adulthood, but still had a way to go. I was someone who had the basic four walls and a roof, but lacked the special ingredients that make me who I am today. In the last two years, the Chapel has developed into a sacred space. On the outside not a lot has changed; some superficial changes to the portico, a touch of paint, but not much else. As I sat in my final
Religion and Life class, I asked my classmates how I had changed in my time here. They replied, much the same as the Chapel had changed – from the outside; a bit taller, a bit wider but not much else. What my classmates can’t see, just like passers-by to the Chapel can’t see, is the change that has occurred within. Through hard work, vision and special elements retrieved from the Tardun Chapel, Edmund Hall is transformed into Blessed Edmund Chapel. When you walk inside the Chapel now, you feel differently. It is no longer just a room, used for a variety of purposes, where one can forget or confuse why you are there. Stepping inside the Chapel for our final Liturgy, I sensed a feeling of being somewhere special, letting the colour of the stained glass windows wash over me, looking with awe at the beautiful marble altar. Those same four walls encase something vastly different today than when I arrived at the College. My time at the College has made me a better person. As I think about my time here, I remember when I started to become an adult. Year by year, special ingredients were added, certain messages repeated, the understanding of Gospel values, service for others, personal excellence, commitment and resilience began to sink in and shape me on the inside. Just this year, when
I helped others with homework or helped at the canteen, I felt a sense of purpose; I felt that I was making someone else’s life better and that I was changing into the future adult that I want to be. When I look back at my early years here, it reminds me of what I was, loud and sometimes just annoying, placing my needs and wants above those of others and not thinking before I acted. But as we grow in such a community as CBC, supported by our families, our conscience grows with us. When I say I’ve developed, I don’t mean on the outside, I mean the me on the inside, the real me, the important me. The inner me has developed into something special. The College raised my awareness that true joy, lasting joy, can only be experienced from helping others and being able to make someone else’s day just a little easier. The College always reinforces that your best effort is always good enough, and that everyone can be excellent. All of the graduands here tonight have undergone a transformation. Our exteriors do not accurately reflect this change, but hopefully the real blessing of our time at the College will be appreciated in the changed and developed conscience CBC Fremantle has – together with our parents’ support – created in us.

Senior Ball ON A STARRY NIGHT IN MARCH, AN EVENING TO REMEMBER FOREVER CAME TO LIFE FOR THE YEAR 12S Senior Ball Coordinator Mr Troy Foote
The highlight of any Year 12’s social calendar is the school ball, and this year’s event at CBC Fremantle was no exception. Held in the Fremantle Sailing Club’s function room, with views over the still waters of the marina, the College Senior Ball lived up to the anticipation of being an exciting evening of beauty, chivalry and fun. From the beginning, when the young gentlemen and their partners walked up the sweeping staircase and were greeted on the red carpet by Principal Mr Shaun Kenny, Deputy Principal Ms Marriann O’Neill, Vice Principal Mr Domenic Burgio and College Captain Alex Skinner, the evening promised to be a night to remember.
After the formal dancing, under the direction of the DJ, the evening took on a more contemporary twist and the dance floor remained busy all night. The evening was a stunning success with happy faces everywhere as the night wore on. The wonderful evening could not have been possible without the great work of the Fremantle Sailing Club. Thank you also to all of the CBC staff who supervised the impeccable behaviour of the attendees and helped organise the evening.
After mocktails and greetings, dinner was served. Then the gorgeous dresses of the girls glowed against the boys’ dark suits under the party lights, as the couples took to the floor with the style gained from preparatory dance lessons leading up to the big night.
