FOREWORD
“There are so many aspects of the life of your school that are a source of great pride for the Edmund Rice vision.”
A SCHOOL IN THE TRADITION OF EDMUND RICE DR WAYNE TINSEY EREA EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
It is with great pleasure that I offer these few words to your College on behalf of Edmund Rice Education Australia. Your College belongs to a national family of some 50 schools who share the common inspiration of Blessed Edmund Rice. We particularly celebrate the way in which Edmund responded to our Gospel by providing Catholic education based on key priorities and values. We collectively try to embody these values through fidelity to the Charter for Catholic education in the Edmund Rice tradition. Each school is different and we celebrate this diversity while endeavouring to maintain our relationships as a ‘family’. We work together for the good of all, particularly mindful of those families for whom life can be a struggle. There are so many aspects of the life of your school that are a source of great pride for the Edmund Rice vision. Your care for the disadvantaged, your advocacy for a more just world, your vision for ‘excellence’ that encourages all students to strive for fullness of life, your emphasis on service as a response to the privilege of education and your challenge to our young to seek a strong relationship with God and obtain the happiness our Gospel promises.
There is so much to celebrate and rejoice in! On behalf of the Christian Brothers and the whole Edmund Rice family, I thank and congratulate you on another great year. I thank our families for choosing Edmund Rice education through enrolment in this school. I realise that costs associated with education of our children can be difficult to bear at times. I know that your school commits to continuous examination of ways in which it can be as supportive as possible in this regard. I thank the staff and students of this school for using their gifts and talents to make this excellent school so faithful to our vision and traditions. So friends, may God bless your school and bless us all as we celebrate another wonderful year of hard work and great achievement.

PRINCIPAL’S REPORT
RECOGNISING GOD IN THE OTHER MR SHAUN KENNY PRINCIPAL
Those of you who have read one or more of these Principal’s Reports in recent years will know that I always like to commence by giving you the same commitment. That is that I will refrain from providing a catalogue of the activities and achievements of the College during this year. Although these have been many, they have been duly recognised as they occurred and are faithfully recorded as part of this Yearbook. Those who read last year’s report may recall that as a topic I chose to focus upon one of the five characteristics of the graduating student of CBC Fremantle as designated in our Journey Document. I also committed to making the remaining characteristics the individual focus of my reports in coming years. This is a commitment I intend to keep. This seminal document may not have come to your attention recently, so allow me to reiterate that the five characteristics which we seek in each graduate of this school are: • Tomorrow’s gentleman forms attitudes and actions based on Gospel values, • Tomorrow’s gentleman strives to be his best and understands the inherent value of doing so,
CLOCKWISE FROM TOP LEFT Mr Kenny; Nathan Rowe; Peter Hudson at Anzac Day assembly; keeping the beat at Open Day; Dylan Clifford in the Woodwork workshop.

• Tomorrow’s gentleman is accountable, resilient and prepared to face and overcome challenges, • Tomorrow’s gentleman is selfless by nature and able to form positive, mutually-beneficial relationships, and • Tomorrow’s gentleman recognises and values the ‘other’ in his life. It is this final characteristic which is so powerful in meaning but so commonly misunderstood which I would like to explore briefly in this report. When we devised this aspirational statement some time ago, we were inspired by the words of Br Philip Pinto who was the Congregational Leader of the worldwide Christian Brothers at the time. He said: I see no value in a centre of learning which churns out numerous school leavers each year and is passively part of a society torn apart by division…our schools exist to challenge popular beliefs and dominant cultural values, to ask the difficult questions, to look at life from the standpoint of the minority, the victim, the outcast and the stranger. So who are the people in these categories for each of us? Who is this ‘other’ who has the potential to teach us about ourselves? We need to accept that sometimes our ‘other’ is a significant critic. Earlier this year we made a decision to mount a display on our College fence which brought to the attention of passers-by the plight of the 37 children born to refugees on Australian soil who faced the prospect of

being moved to offshore detention. For many Australians, including some sitting in parliament, refugees are their ‘other’. In response to our protest I received the following email from a former student of the College: Dear Mr Kenny I am extremely disappointed with the display of “Refugee Immigration” on the College fence. What next will you be encouraging your students to display? I would have thought that the College’s role was for students to study hard, learn morality but keep highly politicised issues to individuals and not encourage your students to engage in social issues. The time for this is when your students leave the College and can make their own decisions without undue promotion from the College or its teaching individuals. Mr Kenny, you are very naive or are not up to speed as to how the media colours many of these issues to assist the promoters of them. My response to the writer was very measured. In addition to disputing my degree of naivety, I pointed out that encouraging our students to engage in social issues was not only desirable but was an imperative of a good Catholic education. I also expressed my regret that his time spent at CBC Fremantle had not been more successful in helping him to establish the qualities of sensitivity and compassion.

but still contains the third largest Muslim population in the world. I knew what it was like to be in the minority as one of the 2% of Christians. It is also a place where tolerance in general and religious tolerance in particular are remarkable and is perhaps best summed up in an expression used by one of the students in the school I was visiting when he said, “India is a place of many religions, many languages, many cuisines – we have Unity in Diversity.”
During the school holidays at the end of Term 3 this year, I spent two weeks in India. I have no intention of giving you a travelogue titled ‘what I did on my holidays’ and I write the following with the deepest possible regard for those of you with Indian heritage or who know India far better than I do from my brief encounter with her. My experience was of a beautiful people, an amazingly rich culture and of a chaotic country. It is a place which is over 80% Hindu
During my time away, India was my ‘other’ and in this incredible landscape of unfamiliarity I learned so much. In Australia we struggle to share our roads between cars and bicycles. In our pursuit of whatever it is we are chasing but which we frequently struggle to name, we lose our patience and our composure. In this land of my ‘other’ the roads are populated by trucks, buses, cars, motorcycles, rickshaws, pedestrians, dogs, innumerable Brahmin cattle and the
008

occasional water buffalo. They are also a place where street signs and traffic lights are treated as mere suggestions. These roads are places of great noise and movement and harmony. There is no phenomenon known as road rage in this country of over a billion people. Accidents aplenty but no overt anger. The first Indian winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, Kailash Satyarthi, is a children’s rights and education activist who opposes child labour throughout the world. In his acceptance speech in 2014 he said that, “India may be a land of over a hundred problems, but it is also a place for a billion solutions.” In this country’s amazing capacity for tolerance I gained only the tiniest glimpse of one of those solutions. Satyarthi also said that “in the pursuit of global progress, not a single person should be left out or left behind … but we have failed our children in imparting an education which gives the true meaning and objective of life – a sense of global citizenship.” When I initially sat down to write this report on the topic of the ‘other’, I had every intention of identifying the groups which might commonly meet this description in Australia. But you don’t need me to do that. Any number of xenophobic and frightened leaders at all levels in our country will do that for you. At CBC Fremantle we are committed to seeing our ‘other’ not as a source of fear or suspicion but rather as an opportunity to encounter God who comes to us disguised as the stranger. The stranger who unsettles us, challenges our thinking and provides great opportunities for our growth. Thank you to all of the parents who ignore populist thinking and support the College in showing our young men a different and better way to live their lives based not on fear but instead on the principles of tolerance, understanding and global citizenship. I also take this opportunity to offer thanks and acknowledgement to the many people who deserve them. I would like to first recognise the contribution of Mr Terry Roberts, who is the Director of Regional Support for Edmund Rice Education Australia and Ms Eileen Climo, who is the School Improvement Advisor for Catholic Education WA. These two people are always available for advice and their approach is consistently supportive and helpful. CBC Fremantle is a better school for their involvement. Each year I spend at CBC leads me to a greater appreciation of the quality and industry of our staff.

experience which is available to our students as a result of their discretionary effort is quite remarkable. On behalf of our broader community, I wish to acknowledge the diligence and commitment of each one of the teaching and non-teaching staff who go beyond their job description in the interests of the young men at our College. I state on a regular basis that parents are the primary educators of their sons – that the home is the first school. At this College we are blessed to have parents who are engaged in the education of their sons and supportive of our objectives. While expressing our general gratitude, I would like to give special mention to those who perform formal roles in the school. Thank you to Mr Greg Bruce and the members of the College Board, Mr John Atkinson and the Parent Auxiliary, Mr George Ayres and the CBC Old Boys’ Association, Mrs Giselle Pangiarella 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. Further thanks are due to the members of the Christian Brothers who continue to support and rejoice in our

progress. We know that whatever we achieve today is accomplished as a result of the vision and diligence of those who have preceded us. Their ongoing interest, involvement and inspiration are greatly appreciated. And finally a special thank you to our students. While many were formally recognised for a variety of achievements during our Awards Evening, it is their ongoing commitment to their formation as young gentlemen which makes their families and their school justifiably proud of them. We have much to celebrate at CBC Fremantle – a proud tradition, a record of current achievement and an exciting future to imagine. I look forward to sharing it with each of you.

VICE PRINCIPAL’S REPORT
“At CBC Fremantle, the formation of the students is our highest priority.”
BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS MR DOMENIC BURGIO VICE PRINCIPAL
In 35 years of teaching I have rarely, if ever, come across a bad student. However, I have come across the occasional unhelpful parent. On these occasions the person who suffered the most is the child, since overwhelmingly, a student’s success at school reflects the success of the partnership between the parents and the school. Unhelpful parenting comes in all shapes and sizes, and in my opinion is rarely ill-intentioned. Some parents had a terrible educational experience and project this onto their child’s current circumstances. Some parents simply wish to back their child, regardless of the circumstances, for fear that an adverse judgement of their offspring is an adverse judgement of them. Some parents reflect the current world in which we live, and basically approach every circumstance as only having a win or lose option. Whatever form bad parenting comes in, good parenting generally does the opposite. I was discussing the notion of parenting with a current CBC Fremantle father, and he put it to me that the Baby Boomers probably had the best parenting experience
in history. Due to the circumstances of their upbringing, parents of Baby Boomers knew the value of everything, could show appreciation, did not feel entitled, understood accountability, had and valued perseverance, and built reserves of resilience. These attributes formed the foundation of their parenting and resulted in arguably the most successful generation Australia has produced. At CBC Fremantle, the formation of the students is our highest priority. As a Catholic school in the Edmund Rice tradition, we aim primarily to evangelise these young men and bring them into a close relationship with Christ. This may not be the parents’ first priority, and it is not often theirs, but planting a seed is the first part of growing a tree and it is hoped that at CBC Fremantle the seed of faith is well and truly planted. The formation of tomorrow’s gentlemen is entirely a partnership and the parents, as the primary educators, take on the most important role. We, the school, theoretically support their values. Where the two partners are in perfect synchronisation, the chances
012
CBC 2016
of success are at their highest. When they aren’t, it generally results in less-than-optimal outcomes. Pastoral Care at CBC Fremantle is recognised as being of a high order. It should never be assumed as perfect, but perfection is what we strive for. Each adult in the College plays a role in assisting the parent in the formation of the CBC gentleman, and as part of that duty should expect the support of the parent. Now teachers, and even Vice Principals, make mistakes and when they do the relationship should be strong enough to call them out and find a way forward. The challenge for parents is how to respond when their son’s behaviour or attitude is in question. The best level of Pastoral Care is delivered when all sides of a story are presented and considered. A child will always give a child’s perspective of an incident and before responding to that perspective, adults should invoke natural justice. The best way to do this is to contact the school and speak directly with the teacher dealing with your son. Hopefully, this alone will be enough to bring any issue to a satisfactory conclusion but if it doesn’t, parents are encouraged to go up the ladder. If satisfaction isn’t achieved this way or you find you are having to use this method regularly, then perhaps you need to reconsider whether your values and those of the school are aligned. If parents do not have confidence in the school, its teachers, leaders and processes, it is in the child’s interests to leave that school since it is clearly unable to contribute positively to that child’s formation. Each year at CBC Fremantle, a few parents decide this very path, some in consultation with their sons and some who find a reason to leave even though they have never brought it up with anyone at the College. I have the highest regard
CBC 2016
013
for these parents since they are putting their money where their mouth is. However, the purpose of this article is not aimed at the parents who leave, it is aimed at those whose sons’ enrolment is ongoing. The highest level of Pastoral Care is only able to be delivered when the commitment of the parents and students matches the expected commitment they have of the staff. I am sometimes reminded by parents about how much they pay in fees and how this somehow should influence my decisionmaking or that of my colleagues. I can assure all parents that our staff are paid the same as the staff at the local government high school and any one of the Stirling Highway privates. The fees paid by parents generally provide resources, not Pastoral Care. Pastoral Care comes from a set of values and commitments that are shared by all the members of any community. I thank all parents who fight the battle with their sons over homework, over computer use, over uniform and grooming. Parents who wait to hear the other side of the story, who back the College when a sanction is deemed appropriate, and who even support the College when they think it may have gone a bit hard. Most of all, I thank the parents for their forgiveness when we get it wrong and for modelling that commitment we all wish to see developed in our young men which forms the basis of selflessness and sacrifice that will stay with them for the rest of their lives.

DEPUTY PRINCIPAL’S REPORT
SUPPORTING EXCELLENCE MR NEIL ALWEYN DEPUTY PRINCIPAL – TEACHING AND LEARNING
The 2016 academic year has proven to be an exciting and historic one for the boys at CBC Fremantle.
opportunity to demonstrate personal excellence during their time at CBC.
It gives me great pleasure to commence my review by recognising some of the wonderful achievements from our 2015 graduating class. A number of boys were presented with awards from the School Curriculum and Standards Authority (SCSA), based on their school achievements. These boys were awarded Certificates of Commendation for achieving at least 20 A grades (or their equivalent) over Years 11 and 12, and they were presented at an Academic Awards assembly at the commencement of the 2016 year.
It was wonderful to see so many boys awarded Certificates of Excellence or Distinction at our 2016 Awards Evening. These awards, which asks boys to have a Positive Indicator rating of 100% or 95-99% respectively for all their academic reports during the year, allow every student regardless of their academic ability to walk across the stage and be acknowledged on Awards Night. As Mr Kenny often tells the boys, “If you give your best, your best will always be good enough.” Therefore, it was pleasing to see numbers of boys in the hundreds being recognised for these awards.
Along with these award winners, we recognised a number of students who gained admission into the CBC Academic 95 Club. These boys all received an ATAR (Australian Tertiary Admissions Rank) of at least 95, which places them in the top 5% of the state’s graduating cohort. There was a significant increase during this year in the use of SEQTA to drive teaching and learning at the College. Through the use of the SEQTA Engage portal, parents have been able to view their sons’ marks as soon as they have been entered, view their academic reports and keep track of how they are progressing during their time at the school. I encourage all parents to continue to engage further with SEQTA as we work together to ensure your sons have every
Our 2016 graduating Year 12 boys were the first set of students to go through the new School Curriculum and Standards Authority WACE system. With it came the challenges of OLNA (Online Literacy and Numeracy Assessment) tests, completing Certificate II qualifications and sitting WACE examinations for new Year 12 courses. I am pleased that all students at CBC passed their OLNA tests, which is a remarkable achievement and not possible without the hard work and support of many teachers, right from Year 7 to Year 12. Given SCSA predicted schools would have around a 85-90% pass rate, the results of our boys are something of which to be proud.

Finally, on a personal note, I would like to thank the families of CBC Fremantle for being so welcoming and supportive during my first year at the College. I have constantly pinched myself this year at how lucky I am to work at this wonderful school and to be afforded the chance to work with your sons. We are all very blessed to be a part of this very special community.

“Underpinning all of this is the faith community that we are; how we share in Gospel values, prayer and liturgical experiences.”
A FAITH COMMUNITY MS MARRIANN O’NEILL DEPUTY PRINCIPAL
What makes CBC Fremantle an authentic Catholic school in the tradition of Edmund Rice? As part of Edmund Rice Education Australia, CBC Fremantle is called to enact its mission, that is, “To offer a Liberating Education, based on a Gospel Spirituality, within an Inclusive Community committed to Justice and Solidarity.” The touchstones highlighted in the mission are woven throughout the heart and soul, policies and practices of our College. Tomorrow’s gentleman is one who will value and act with these touchstones ingrained in their personal and world view.
marginalised, and our compassion for others translates to a community of inclusivity. Underpinning all of this is the faith community that we are; how we share in Gospel values, prayer and liturgical experiences. These serve to strengthen and give shape to the mission and identity of all who belong to CBC Fremantle.
Challenged to demonstrate personal excellence and with differentiated curriculum to enable students to do so, our College also models how our boys can use Gospel values to view the world and inform their decision making processes. Teaching in the classrooms, assembly presentations and College participation in justice campaigns and service opportunities, constantly asks our gentlemen to be counter cultural, to show compassion and to consider how they might help build a better world.
I thank all the students, staff and parents who have worked to achieve our mission this year. Special thanks go to Mr Jason Matthews, Indigenous Reconciliation Coordinator, Ms Emily Bowran, Service Learning Coordinator, and Mr Matthew Silveira, Liturgies & Retreats Coordinator, who work to provide experiences that challenge, inspire and promote our mission for all of us.

STRATEGIC DIRECTION Mr greg bruce chair of cbc fremantle board
This year the College Board has been mindful of CBC Fremantle remaining true to the charism of Edmund Rice and consistently remind ourselves that we are to be an inclusive not exclusive school. We constantly monitor our authenticity as an EREA school and balance issues of affordability, diversity, disability and cultural mix. Although acknowledging our progress in these areas, we are committed to further addressing needs in our community, and for example in the coming year we are seeking ways to assist asylum seeker and refugee families with educational opportunities at CBC. The College is also actively participating in the Beyond Borders initiative of Edmund Rice Education internationally with our Principal leading involvement in developing partnerships with third world Edmund Rice schools. The Board is looking forward to assisting the College to progress these initiatives in the coming year. The College Board meets regularly throughout the year and provides oversight to the school’s finances and a counsel and advisory function to the Principal and leadership team. A major role of the Board, in conjunction with the leadership team, is the development of the College’s Strategic Directions and monitoring the implementation of specific goals throughout

the year. There is an annual planning day when the Board and leadership team meet to set strategy and review and refine goals for the coming year. We are fortunate to have a very collaborative Board that is totally committed to the advancement and good of the College and seeking the very best for our boys. My role as Chair is made so much easier because of the constructive, cooperative and giving nature of every Board member and I thank them for their support and contribution in 2016. This year we see the departure of long-serving member Frank Iannantuoni who is retiring after six years of dedicated service to the Board and College. Frank also chaired the Finance Committee and has done an outstanding job with his positive and unwavering support of CBC Fremantle. He will be missed and we thank him for all his work over the years. Our other outstanding and generous Board members are: Tim Allan, Gia Burd, Angie Emanuele, Mauri Mucciacciaro, Sandra Seman-Bourke and Paul Ziegelaar. The Board enjoys an excellent relationship with the entire College leadership team and works closely with our Principal, Shaun Kenny and Business Manager, Tony Pitos. We sincerely thank them for their guidance, support and patience this year. At CBC Fremantle we are also privileged to have such a motivated and dedicated group of teachers who are so generous with their talent and time. The Board certainly recognises the great contribution they make to this school and the development of tomorrow’s gentlemen. As part of the wonderful CBC Fremantle community, the Board looks forward to continuing to serve the interests of the College and its students in 2017.
BUSINESS MANAGER’S REPORT
FINANCIAL PERSPECTIVE MR TONY PITOS BUSINESS MANAGER
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 incorporating the efficient delivery of education and the physical environment. This budget includes a two year projection which allows for trending influences that may affect future fiscal capacity. Comparatives between actual revenue and expense to budget expectations through variance analysis provides a measure of control which allows an identification of savings or expenditure greater than budgeted. 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. 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 but also the many other resources needed to keep CBC abreast of any new developments in education and provide the optimum in pedagogy. Expenditure within the College may be identified to 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 2016 tuition fees and charges were increased five percent. This increase was deemed necessary due to continuing financial pressures on the College, including increases in teaching salaries and other general expenses. 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. With government funding almost completely allocated to wages and salaries, the collection of fees is paramount. 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. This is exacerbated by the uncertainty of funding in 2018 when government funding will be renewed for the following four years. Should the model of funding be changed, then a greater fee increase will result in order to retain the fiscal viability of the College. With all of this the affordability of CBC is foremost in consideration by the College administration. Expenditure must then also 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 College continues the student laptop one to one programme and maintains two computer laboratories for more sophisticated software programs. Desktops in Technologies and the Music Room provide additional computer access. The College Laptop Centre continues to provide the necessary repairs and to generally service the computer programme in the College.

COLLEGE CAPTAIN’S ADDRESS

HAPPINESS AND INCLUSIVITY RILEY FAULDS COLLEGE CAPTAIN
During my first week of school at CBC, I was sitting in Mentor group with my S1 brothers and Mr Schmidberger. Everyone was talking, catching up from the holidays. Then Mr Schmidberger started talking with the Year 12 boys about their holidays and everyone started listening in. There was some banter and Mr Schmidberger was joking around with them. I was a little Year 7 sitting up the front listening while these confident, big Year 12s had a conversation filled with in-jokes and laughter. Then, all of a sudden, I spoke up and made some joke or another. It would be perfectly reasonable to expect these big, tough, confident Year 12s to brush my comment off, or give me funny looks for ‘trying to be cool’ or whatever, but, in fact, quite the opposite happened. The whole Mentor Group laughed at my joke and a Year 12 retorted with a similarly humorous quip. It was pretty much that moment, so early in my time at CBC, that I already felt part of the community. Each day in that Mentor Group, we had jokes, carried on traditions and had conversations that all the boys and Mr Schmidberger would join in with, much like a family conversation at Christmas or a birthday. Everyone was included, everyone was a part of it. And this has been the same every week in my Mentor class. Each year we
have boys leave and new boys join, but to this day, we have conversations that everyone in S1 gets involved in. Mr Schmidberger left, Mr Binet arrived, and I’m now a big, tough, confident Year 12 sitting up the back. But our Mentor Group, and by extension our College, has at its heart an essence of goodness, happiness and inclusivity that has stayed strong throughout our time here. Every Year 12 student sitting here has had different experiences, a different Mentor Group dynamic, and a different future ahead, but I believe that CBC gives each boy opportunities and experiences that have influenced and shaped us for this next stage in our lives. In reflecting on our six years here, I’ve had so many memories, emotions and thoughts flooding my mind and I’m sure it’s similar for all the boys out there. From our first day, walking round that corner into the guard of

COLLEGE CAPTAIN’S ADDRESS
honour of Year 12s, to our last, walking through a guard of honour from the next generation, we’ve all done so much, learnt so much and developed into the young men who graduate tonight. We think back to Athletics Carnivals, Cross Country runs, big Grand Finals for our sports; to classes with our favourite teachers where we learnt something that opened up new worlds of possibilities; to hilarious moments at recess or lunch; to last days, first days, sunny days, rainy days, windy days (plenty of those in Freo), to Eddy Rice Days, fun days, sad days, exam days, big days, small days, really just average days of no particular significance. We think back to our Rite Journey classes guiding us to further maturity and understandings of how to be gentlemen, and to the days we spent in Bindoon, working together and sleeping under the stars. We think back to teachers who’ve come and teachers who’ve gone, to what they’ve taught us, about Maths and Science and English and History and life in general. To the mates we’ve made in our Year and Years above and below. We think back on all these things, things that all make up our CBC education. We look back and we’re thankful for what CBC has given us, taught us and formed within us. We’re all heading off to our future. To university, or jobs, or apprenticeships, or travel. Along the road that winds ahead of us, we’ll draw on what we’ve learned to help us get through the challenges ahead with grace, courage and faith, and appreciate the friends we have made. And I reckon we’ll draw on memories of moments that’ll make us smile or laugh that will pop into our heads at any moment. Of teachers: Mr Burgio’s suits and Mr Carter’s Dockers tie; Mrs Jeffreys’ ever-changing hair colour and style; the PE staff’s moustache-growing attempts in Movember; Ms Schmidt regularly brightening our days with reminders of how exciting the future is for us all; Mrs Edwards trying not to laugh when she tells boys off for mucking around; Ms Quin’s unusual ‘holistic’ study methods; Mrs D’Ascanio’s dry humour and high-quality roasts of her students; or Mr Testa’s complex class discussions that often take several periods. Of events: telling ghost stories in the middle of the night in Bindoon on the Rite Journey camp; the bus carrying the Athletics trophy and victorious House breaking down after an Athletics Carnival; hopelessly attempting to play Ultimate Frisbee in House Sport on a day when the seabreeze made even walking straight difficult; and rousing renditions of the Edmund Rice Anthem. I think that these memories are a big part of what CBC has given us. Enjoyment, laughs, learning and friendship, but also formation in how to act and react in certain situations in life. I reckon these memories will pop into our minds at all kinds of random times in the future, to help us react to
events and people. We’ve learned so much about how to be a good person and recognise justice and goodness in life and all of these teachers, events and moments have been a huge part of this. The College has instilled these values in us at all occasions. It provides opportunities for growth and development that could not be bettered by another school. These opportunities come in the form of everyday classes, our College Masses, service, retreats, excursions and countless others. We’ve been so lucky to have such a passionate Principal in Mr Kenny leading our search for personal excellence, supported by the Leadership Team and other staff, teaching and non-teaching, and we’d like to thank them for their spiritual guidance, passion and knowledge. Some boys out there are terribly sad to be leaving CBC, but some others probably can’t wait to wrap up their graduation and head out into the big wide world with all they’ve learned, so I’ll soon let you go. But first, I just want to say thanks. To the teachers who’ve taught us so much and been such great role models for us, thank you. To the school: with all the pressures of modern education to churn out high ATAR and stellar NAPLAN results first and foremost, and not giving students an education with personal formation, thank you for staying true to CBC’s aim. CBC Fremantle sticks to its guns and is committed to its values and its faith and I think this is beyond valuable for everyone who walks through its doors every day. To our parents for sending us here and providing the foundation for this formation, thank you. And to my classmates, the Class of 2016, thanks for all the laughs, all the fun, the arguments and disagreements, the strange jokes and habits, and all the rest, thanks, it’s been a blast. To conclude, I was sitting in my Drama class on a lazy afternoon earlier this year just chatting with the boys. Someone spoke up and said, “Imagine we suddenly woke up and it turned out we had fallen asleep up the back of Mr Miller’s Year 7 Maths class, and everything between Term 2 Year 7 and now had just been a dream and we still had to go through every day again!” At the time, we all laughed at the horror of that possibility! But I’ve thought a lot about that conversation and, you know what, with all the amazing experiences I’ve had, and despite the challenges, the Maths homework, the arguments and the bad days, I really, truly, wouldn’t mind doing it all over again.

“For the students, 2016 will be another precious year in the memories of their youth, and nothing is taken for granted.”
TODAY’S BOYS... TOMORROW’S GENTLEMEN MR DOMENIC BURGIO VICE PRINCIPAL
At CBC Fremantle, with more than a century of experience in the education of young men, the College recognises that boys have a need to go through rites of passage as a matter of natural progression through life. The journey at CBC Fremantle is specifically designed to allow a boy to transition into a gentleman and there are milestones along the way that assist in providing a true indication of the young man’s purpose and integrity as he travels along the path. For the College, these markers are routine and time-honoured traditions celebrated with rites of passage ceremonies and strengthened with role modelling and community support. For the students, 2016 will be another precious year in the memories of their youth, and nothing is taken for granted.
CHOOSING CBC Orientation Day in 2015 was a distant memory as the Year 7 students began their CBC journey on Monday 1 February by walking through a Year 12 guard of honour. Wearing their new House shirts, the boys were assigned to their Year 12 Mentor buddies and were shown around the campus and initiated into the finer detail of being a high school student. How to organise a locker, where the classrooms are, negotiating peak hour pedestrian traffic on the stairwells and sharing some humour with Mr Binet outside the Science rooms were all part of the induction. In the afternoon the boys were acquainted with College routine before the ‘real’ academic year was officially launched with the arrival of the rest of the student population the following day.

celebrating the College’s faith tradition and affirming the special relationship between the families and the school. Special Ministers, who spent the year assisting Fr John Sebastian with the ministration of the Holy Eucharist to the community at Masses and Liturgies, were commissioned at this significant event. They were Nicholas Allan, Martin Bradley, Alec Da Silva, Nicholas Funga, Jordan Handcock, Adrian Hunter, Cian Hussey, Finn Leen, Gabriel Leone, Alexander Natale, Joel Tomlinson and Tony Ziegelaar. SHARE THE JOURNEY It was a stunning day for this year’s Share the Journey at Point Walter with more than 200 dads and their sons in attendance. The special event is an initiative of the dads on the Parent Auxiliary and aims to introduce Year 7 students and their dads to the College’s strong belief that fathers play a critical role in the development of boys into good young men. Speakers along the route were 2014 College Captain Anthony Iannantuoni and his dad, whose accounts of their special relationship conveyed the essence of the morning. THE RITE JOURNEY In Week 4 of Term 1 The Calling ceremony at Monument Hill launched the 2016 The Rite Journey programme at the College, with Year 9 boys called to leave their childhood behind and turn towards their future as good young men with support from their parents and their Rite Journey teachers. During the year, the boys participated in challenges and activities designed to increase their confidence and
awareness of the attributes of a positive male role model. Over four nights, students in Mr Binet and Mr Burgio’s TRJ classes hosted CBC mums, grandmothers, aunts, sisters and College staff for a superb dinner in the College Boardroom; Mr Carter and Mr Silver’s classes raised money for Beyond Blue with a two hour bike-a-thon along the Canning River; and Mr Correia, Mr Butcher and Mr Preston’s classes treated their mums to an evening of dancing in the Arts Learning Area. The Rite Journey week concluded the year’s activities with The Abyss, a solo camping experience at Bindoon, where the students were encouraged to keep a journal and express their hopes and dreams for their future. The boys also participated in several adventures along the Swan River including an Amazing Race, sailing catamarans and a Retreat.

of developing into gentlemen. The next year is pivotal in gaining an understanding of the work and commitment required for senior school, with honest evaluation and guidance assisted by Careers Days. Recent graduates returned to the College to talk to the Year 10 boys about their career choices, studies and future aspirations, providing a diverse cross-section of experience to be mined for information. THE SERVANT LEADER In 2016, there were 39 Prefects in a cohort of 128. Devoted to assisting the College’s community and being role models for the younger boys, these young men continually aimed at developing their character into the epitome of CBC gentlemen.

“The journey at CBC has one destination: the graduation of a good young man with the attributes of a CBC gentleman.”
There were countless acts of service by CBC boys during the year. Year 12 students assisted the Year 7s to become comfortably integrated into the College, and also cooked breakfast for the leavers of 2015 at the Year 13 breakfast. Year 11 students stepped up to their role as future leaders of the College, assisting at many significant events including the Opening Mass, Year 9 Dance Social and Year 12 Graduation ceremony. Boys regularly helped out in the community, with Soup Patrol and Good Start Breakfast supporting metropolitan providers of assistance to people in need. Students collected donations for hampers to give to the St Vincent de Paul’s Christmas Appeal and handed out drinks to runners in the largest community event in Western Australia at the City to Surf run. House activities, Edmund Rice Day and the Year 11 Business & Management class were successful in raising funds for various charities, as well as promoting awareness of the plight of people in need who are often at the margins of society. CBC students also showed their support for social justice by advocating against the High Court’s decision to allow more than 267 asylum seekers to be returned to the off-shore
processing centre at Nauru. Media buff, Keane Bourke, interviewed Reverend Chris Bedding about the outspoken priest’s offer of his church as a place of sanctuary for refugees facing deportation, and Year 12 students supported a visual protest displayed on the College’s fence initiated by Christian Service Learning Coordinator, Ms Emily Bowran. At the national Sorry Day ceremony in Wellington Square in the city, Year 11 students Harry Golding and Nathaniel Bond-Williams addressed more than 1,500 people on Indigenous success and what it means to them. The young men inspired members of parliament, the public and respected members and elders of local Indigenous communities, as well as their own CBC brothers, with their reflections on achieving their best and the value of community support. College Captain, Riley Faulds, received the honour of being named the National Lions Youth of the Year out of more than 2,000 contenders. In his final speech to the judging committee for the prestigious award, Riley spoke on issues affecting young people now and into the future.

GRADUATION The journey at CBC has one destination: the graduation of a good young man with the attributes of a CBC gentleman. After six years of developing into a CBC gentleman, on the last day of Term 3 the Class of 2016 was farewelled with an emotional Year 7 guard of honour. Early in the following term, the young men gathered again with their families for the Graduation Mass and ceremony. At St Patrick’s Basilica, the traditional procession of symbols to the altar was performed by Kennedy Sorrell, Zane Sumich, Jiles Denham, Jack Bowater, Mitchell Parker, Harry Burt, Paul Jardine-Clarke, Rafael Cipriano, Tony Ziegelaar and William Welsh, and House flags were carried by Reece Jaschke, Alec Da Silva, Mitchell McGrath and Riley Burke. At the ceremony in the College gymnasium, special performances from the Year 12 musicians Baeley Amalfi, Tyler Davies, Jiles Denham, Finn Leen, Yusef Hourani, Cian Hussey, Damon Miles, Alexander Natale, Emmanuel Terzoudis-Lumsden, Joel Tomlinson, Jake Walter, Connor Whitt and Tony Ziegelaar highlighted the versatility of the graduating cohort.

Harry Bird and Keane Bourke spoke of the symbols of their journey, with Harry choosing a compass to capture the support and guidance he received during his time at the College, and Keane choosing the letter he wrote to himself in Year 9 to symbolise his commitment to himself to be the best man he can be. Finally, Riley Faulds delivered his last speech as College Captain to the community, reflecting on his years at CBC with humour and emotion, and confirming this extraordinary young man’s brilliance as a speech writer and genius as a performer.

VIRTUE IS ITS OWN REWARD MR george ayres president old boys’ association
As graduates of a Catholic school in the Edmund Rice tradition, CBC Old Boys have embraced the four guiding Touchstones of the Edmund Rice Education Australia (EREA) charter: Liberating Education, Gospel Spirituality, Inclusive Community and Justice and Solidarity. The Touchstones perpetuate the legacy of Blessed Edmund Rice, who devoted his life to educating the poor and marginalised, and challenge our students to build a better world for all. As part of this ongoing commitment, the CBC Old Boys fund an annual bursary for a student in need. The anonymous recipient of the Jim McGowan Bursary remains at the discretion of the Principal, and the Association committee is reassured that a young man is being offered a valuable start in life.
In addition to this financial aid, this year the Old Boys’ Association launched a Community Gift initiative with three donations of $1,000 being offered to non-profit groups or clubs which provide valuable grass-roots support and assistance and help make the world a better place. South Coogee Football Club, Fremantle CBC Amateur Football Club and Fremantle Men’s Shed were the inaugural recipients of the donations, and we congratulate these groups for the amazing hard work they engage in for the benefit of the community. Another successful initiative this year was our Alumni Awards, which were presented at an all-ages reunion in March. More than 100 Old Boys and staff of the College attended the function, which was held under the stars

in the Cloisters. Old Boy Tyrone Thwaites (2008) was Master of Ceremonies for the evening and it was really satisfying to be able to acknowledge the extraordinary work that graduates of the College are doing out in our community. Christopher Atturo (2008) won the Rising Star category; Todd Jarvis (1990) was the worthy recipient of the Community Award, and current Head of the Arts at CBC, Shane Mancuso, won the Brother Patrick Kelly Award for Leadership. Congratulations to these fine men for their remarkable and diverse accomplishments. We hosted six reunions in 2016, with more than 120 alumni from the Classes of 1965, 1966, 1996, 2006 and 2011, plus 100 of our Over 60s, coming back to their College for some very pleasant conversations with their old school mates. I take this opportunity to thank the students who assisted with the Over 60s Morning Tea – their politeness and consideration of the ‘oldies’ was a pleasure to see – and also to the teachers who took the time to come along to the reunions. All of these events are an absolute joy to attend and I loved every moment of them. The Old Boys’ Association award this year was presented to the student from the previous year,

officially an Old Boy now, who received the highest ATAR at CBC. It was my pleasure to present this award to Aldrin Thomas (2015), who received 99.75% and I believe is planning on studying medicine. This is my last year as President of the Old Boys’ Association and there are so many people to thank for the support and friendship I have received over my many years at the helm. I thank my current committee, Des Baccini, Terry Iannello, Frank Lo Presti, Kevin O’Brien, John Parker and Graham Taylor, and also to Shaun Kenny and Domenic Burgio for their unwavering encouragement of the Old Boys’ activities. I would also like to thank John Hughes for his sponsorship of the Over 60s’ Morning Tea and his loyalty and outspoken appreciation of our great school. I look forward to seeing the graduating Class of 2016 at future Old Boy functions.

Audiences were in for a treat in 2016 with the flourishing Music programme at CBC entertaining parents and friends throughout the calendar year. We had a new look Jazz Orchestra with the introduction of black blazers for the boys. These new jackets made for a very professional looking orchestra and certainly made an impact when the boys were performing on stage. Thank you to the Music Parents’ Group for contributing towards the cost of the blazers. Many events were held throughout the course of the year including the College Open Day, Music Camp, Jazz at the Club, Catholic Performing Arts Festival, VIPA and the Ellington Jazz Club. These activities provided the boys with an opportunity to perform in front of an audience and a platform to showcase their wonderful talents. A special mention to the Guitar Ensemble which received an Honorable Mention and the Jazz Orchestra for receiving a Certificate of Merit at the Catholic Performing Arts Festival. The talents of the 2016 students were captured in a recording session late in Term 3. Each group was recorded and a compilation CD was produced as a wonderful keepsake. Thank you to Old Boy Matt
Cammarano for assisting with this recording session. It is very important that I acknowledge the sponsors of the Music programme whose donations are vital for the fundraising efforts of the Music Parents’ Group. Thank you to our Fundraising Coordinator, Laurie Quintiliani, for all his hard work in securing donations this year. The Music Parents’ Group is made up of a wonderful team who have willingly donated their time throughout the year. A heartfelt thank you and farewell to our Vice President (and past President), Nancy Hourani, for her support and leadership. Thank you to Stephen Everett, Treasurer, and Suzanne Waters, Secretary, and to committee members Simon Carrick, Anita Cook, Iain Copp, Tanya Quintiliani, Chrissy Smyth, Mick and Mhel Ward, and Rochelle Williams for all their ongoing support. We thank the departing committee members who have made valuable contributions to the Music group during their time at CBC: Katrina Davies, Charlie Fowler, Tony and Angela Natale and Marian Walter. Finally, heartfelt thanks to Mr Shane Mancuso and the music teachers for their motivation and guidance of the boys’ musical talents. The Music teachers are to be commended on their hard work with the bands and ensembles at practice, camp and performances.

HELPING HANDS MAKE LIGHT WORK mr john atkinson president parent auxiliary
The Parents’ Auxiliary had an exceptional year providing support at College events and activities and fostering positive relationships in our community. ‘Keep calm and have a cup of tea’ is our appropriate advice to Year 7 parents on the first day of school, and it is so satisfying to see new parents become part of our friendly community. With all the experience of several years of being a parent at the College, I can testify that CBC has a very special relationship with its families. The Year 7 parents’ wine and cheese evening is also a valuable way for parents to get to know key staff members and have a laugh at Mr Burgio or Mr Kenny’s expense – one or both of these gentlemen will always inject some humour into the occasion. Share the Journey is a parent-led initiative that we are extremely proud of. This year there was a record turn-out for a beautiful day. Another thing that CBC is fond of doing is making parents emotional – in a good way – and STJ introduces our new parents, and reminds our old ones as well, that spending time with our boys is essential for the raising of tomorrow’s gentlemen. Thank you to Anthony Iannantuoni and his dad for sharing some of their reflections with us at this special day. Open Day at the College is a celebration of community for the Parent Auxiliary. Apparently, it is also an event that showcases the quality teaching and learning and facilities

of the school, but we just enjoy chatting with the prospective parents and providing hot dogs and drinks to the visitors. What a fun day! I could do this for a living! Thank you to all the parents who came and helped out as we cook a lot of sausages and onions for a lot of people. Mother’s Day Morning Tea was, in a word, huge! Mums and grandmums love this heart-warming event. This year Mr Brent Butcher shared thoughts on his relationship with his mum, who had travelled from Collie especially to be present. It’s such a poignant reminder that, no matter how big and how hairy we are, our mums love us unconditionally. Thank you to the Parent Auxiliary dads who help out with the massive amount of food preparation for the morning (I’m not sure how much is actually consumed by the mums!). Once again our ladies in the Auxiliary organised the Relationships Australia workshops this year. These evening sessions are incredibly popular and there’s good reason for that. They have great feedback and get booked out pretty quickly, a testament to the excellent presentations. I thank my fellow PA members, who make our meetings such a pleasure to attend and never fail to amaze me with their uncomplaining support and attendance at our activities.

WELCOME AND FAREWELL Every year, the CBC Fremantle community welcomes new faces to contribute to the development of our fine young gentlemen. The College welcomes fresh ideas, tolerance, and sharing the bond of friendship and teamwork that are all part of the four Touchstones that our community embraces as a Catholic school in the Edmund Rice tradition: Liberating Education, Gospel Spirituality, Inclusive Community and Justice and Solidarity. This year the College welcomed Mr Neil Alweyn, Ms Simone Ball, Ms Shoshanna Beins, Mrs Gemma Farrell, Ms Sharon Hookway, Ms Del Howard, Mr Daniel Kennedy, Mr Timothy Marlow, Ms Nicole Papas, Mr Jeremy Peris, Mrs Silvia Romagnoli and Mr Timothy Travis.
CLOCKWISE FROM TOP LEFT Mrs Jeffreys, Mr Buss and Mr Jordan; Mr Marion; Mr Leech and Mrs Richmond.
As we welcome newcomers, the natural attrition of employment means that every year CBC also bids farewell to familiar faces. Sometimes these colleagues have been a part of the College for many, many years, as in the case of Head of Mathematics for 20 years, Mr Barry Tognolini, who retired this year following a stint of annual leave that was obviously far too much fun. As a previous student of CBC Fremantle, it is not an exaggeration to say that his life and the school have been intertwined for a very long time. ‘Mr Togs’ as he is fondly known, has been an outstanding educator and tremendous role model for all of the young men whose lives he has impacted. We wish him safe travels and exciting adventures as part of his retirement. Mr Frank Williams has also been enjoying leave this year and decided that this pace of life agrees with him to such an extent that retirement beckoned. Mr Williams has been instrumental in establishing the Catering programme as a key component of the College and we wish him every happiness in his retirement.

Mr Clinton Testa has been Head of English at CBC since 2012 and prior to this held the position of Head of Samson House. He has been successful in gaining a position at another College from next year and leaves with our very best wishes. Mr Testa has overseen tremendous progress in the development of literacy skills at CBC and his genuine concern for the students in his care has been a hallmark of his time at the school. Ms Candice Brown could quite possibly win the award for the most Christmas gifts ever received by a teacher. The popular English teacher has been seconded to a position at another Catholic school for next year, and we look forward to her return to CBC in 2018. Ms Nicole Papas (English) and Mr Timothy Travis (Mathematics) both complete short term contracts at the College. We thank them both for the personal
and professional gifts which they have brought to CBC Fremantle. Maternity leave has accounted for a few short term (and not so short) comings and goings as the College Staff have been taking their role in contributing to the future student population very seriously. Mrs Jennifer Lawlor now has a triple treat of boys with Edward, who was born in March, and Mrs Vera Moura welcomed her second son, Francisco. Ms Zoe Francis won’t be adding to the CBC waiting list with little Isabel, but she is very happy with her pigeon pair, while Mrs Candice Brown finally has a little boy, Riordan, to join her two girls.

In writing the Morgan House report for 2016 I would first and foremost like to recognise the contribution of the outstanding Mentor teachers who work so closely with the Morgan students. Their dedication and unwavering commitment to the young men in their care is something for which I am tremendously grateful. The support and care given by Ms Candice Brown, Mr Geoff Buss, Ms Carol Denny, Ms Maria Garbin, Mr Justin Leech, Ms Nicole Papas, Ms Petrina Richmond and Mr James Silver is critical to forming relationships that enhance the experiences of the Morgan students.

Secondly, I would like to express my total appreciation to all of the Morgan families for your support of our Morgan House fundraising day. We were once again able to generously support the Black Dog on a Lead initiative that encourages people to talk openly about depression. It is wonderful to be able to support such a worthwhile cause that was founded by two of our Old Boys, Ale Alberti and Massimo Iustini. I believe that a significant aspect of the fundraising day is the marvellous feeling of community that is achieved. The spectacular level of support offered by our Morgan families is unparalleled and humbling. This fantastic result along with the unselfish contributions made by the Morgan students in all areas of the Service programme gave rise to Morgan House placing first for Wedd Cup points in this area. I am extremely proud of the efforts of the Morgan boys in what I believe to be the most vital aspect of the College. The students once again displayed generosity and care for others with their donations to the annual Christmas appeal. Morgan House showed that – at track and field at least – red really is faster, taking home the coveted House Athletics championship shield for the fourth year in a row. Thanks to extremely strong performances by our Year 8, 10 and 12 students we placed first overall in the House Cross Country competition. Swimming isn’t our forte but the commitment and endeavour of every boy in the pool and cheering in the stands was exemplary. Further thanks must go to our wonderful Year 12 Prefects who inspired, enthused, enthralled and encouraged us to enjoy what it means to be a member of Morgan House. Their dedication, organisational skills and House pride are faultless. They have set an exceptionally high standard for our incoming Morgan Prefects for 2017. In loving memory of my friend Bob Rose’Meyer, the first appointed Head of Morgan House.

HOUSE REPORTS
PATRICK HOUSE MR BRENT BUTCHER HEAD OF PATRICK HOUSE
The young men of Patrick House demonstrated their commitment to forming relationships with each other and all members of the College community in the light of Christ. The House Masses have been well supported and the students always display a reverent manner when in attendance. Patrick boys in the main display great respect, compassion and empathy towards others; their care for their peers, families and teachers is evidence of this.
“A high number of award winners, excellent report comments, outstanding artwork and dramatic performances are proof that Patrick boys embraced and strove for their personal best.�
The year once again offered the students many opportunities to strive for personal excellence. Patrick House displayed great sportsmanship and endeavour across the playing fields. Although the House did not win any of the major sporting events, the young men always displayed a determined attitude. The academic, artistic and co-curricular pursuits of the students also produced many pleasing results. A high number of award winners, excellent report comments, outstanding artwork and dramatic performances are proof that Patrick boys embraced the pursuit of their personal best. The House system provides boys with opportunities to face challenges, and failures at times, yet realise that to be truly successful they must be resilient in nature. House spirit, teamwork and community focus in fundraising efforts were particularly strong amongst our boys this year, and there is never a shortage of volunteers stepping up to assist with our busy College activities. I thank Patrick parents for their continued support on the journey. Service to others is a key component of the Edmund Rice tradition and throughout the year time, money and effort have been offered to those in need, by parents as well as the boys. Events including the House fundraising and Edmund Rice day truly captured the generosity and care within the Patrick House community.

The young men of Patrick formed strong relationships with the staff at the College, especially their Mentor teachers. I thank Ms Emily Bowran, Ms Lana De Palma, Mr Daniel Kennedy, Ms Alana Kubicek, Mr Louis Miller, Mrs Leanne Ogden, Mr Jeremy Peris, Mr Timothy Travis and Mr Marius Van Dongen for their outstanding service and care of the young men in Patrick House. I congratulate every member of Patrick House and urge you all to embrace the opportunities and challenges that await in the future.

HOUSE REPORTS
RICE HOUSE MR ADRIAN CORREIA HEAD OF RICE HOUSE
Endeavour is the motto on the Rice crest and when I reflect on 2016, one thing that stands out above all else is how each boy endeavoured to give his best in every area of the College. We are not all sportsmen, musicians or academics but the boys who I am most impressed with are the ones who gave it their all in their areas of weakness. The boy who achieves an A in a support class or the young man who finishes 95th in the Cross Country with a personal best time; the student who jumps in the pool and competes in a race even though he is afraid of the water, or the gentlemen who volunteer for service opportunities even though they have completed all required hours. These are the boys who make the College great and we have so many amazing role models in Rice House who endeavour to achieve personal excellence in everything they do.
“It was very satisfying to see the whole Rice community come together for a great cause, raising money to build a house for a homeless family in Peru.”
The year began with Rice winning the Swimming Carnival for the first time in 10 years. For the boys in Year 12 who had given it their best at every carnival in their six years at the College, this was an extremely special moment. What impressed me the most was that their enthusiasm and passion didn’t waiver even when we didn’t reach the same heights at the Cross Country and Athletics Carnivals. For the Rice Fundraiser this year, our student leaders were very keen to do something different from the standard lunchtime sausage sizzle and took a risk by hosting a breakfast. The initiative was a great success with the large number of parents in attendance being a highlight. It was very satisfying to see the whole Rice community come together for a great cause, raising money to build a house for a homeless family in Peru. Our College Prefects and House Councillors did a magnificent job this year helping me with events, carnivals, fundraisers and activities that have been influential in generating House spirit; we have a fine group of young Catholic leaders in Rice House. To the graduating class of 2016, you have been an amazing cohort and have achieved so much during your time at the College. You have been excellent role models for the younger boys in your Mentor Groups and I wish you all the best in your future endeavours.

I would like to thank our Mentor teachers: Mrs Amelia Andrew, Ms Shoshanna Beins, Mrs Nicole Christie, Ms Trevanna Cooper, Mrs Chantelle Edwards, Mrs Zoe Francis, Mrs Stavroula Hantzis, Mr Matthew Stockton, Ms Lisa Tognolini and Mr Adryan Winnan for the work and support they provide the students of Rice House. With this calibre of teachers, it is no wonder CBC Fremantle produces such delightful gentlemen. It has been an outstanding year and I am looking forward to 2017 with great anticipation.

SAMSON HOUSE MR CRAIG JONES HEAD OF SAMSON HOUSE
This year, Samson House handed over the banner to Rice House in the House Swimming Carnival. As in past years, the Samson boys were strong in their endeavours, but we came across some very tough competition. In the House Athletics Carnival, we achieved a better result this year with a second place. Congratulations go to all boys who, in one way or another, contributed to these great days we had and who achieved some of the top awards.

During House assemblies in 2016, I often congratulated the boys on their commitment to trying to do the right thing, to seeking personal excellence, and even just sitting quietly and paying attention to their peers’ achievements. Further congratulations go to the Samson boys who walked across the stage at the Awards night. At the end of this year, my time as Head of House comes to an end and I have thoroughly enjoyed my tenure. As I have said on many occasions, the success of Samson House relies on the people who are involved. The boys have all contributed over the past five years; the parents have been supporting their sons and the College in so many ways and their assistance is invaluable. I have always been so appreciative of the Mentor teachers who have been there for each Samson House boy, ensuring they begin the day well and their pastoral needs are met with care and diligence. I would like to thank Ms Lisa Tognolini for stepping in for me while I was away. Ms Tognolini undertook the Samson House fundraiser during the third term and raised more than $3,000. We were able to make two sizeable donations to Youth Focus, a West Australian organisation working to stop youth suicide, and to the Edmund Rice Ministries in Maasin in the Philippines for a sustainable computer teaching programme for the people in villages outside the main city. The appreciation from both of these organisations was heartwarming.

RELIGIOUS EDUCATION MS SARAH QUIN HEAD OF RELIGIOUS EDUCATION
As a Learning Area, Religious Education has enjoyed an exciting 2016. We welcomed a new full time RE staff member, Ms Beins, and began a comprehensive rewrite of all lower school Religious Education units to keep in line with current changes and student needs. Religious Education has a clear university entrance pathway, requiring these boys to have all the skills necessary to survive not only the WACE examinations but also to have an understanding of the skills and requirements for university. This sits next to the alternative course aimed more at students who are not considering university but still choose a Catholic education. These two courses have been significantly rewritten in light of the new School Curriculum and Standards Authority (SCSA) requirements and Catholic Education content. Members of the RE department have continued our focus, not just on religious content, but also on the processing skills that boys need to achieve success in their learning. We have chosen the key assessment areas of analysis, explanation and investigation and are developing a common language and understanding of these core skills that we believe will guide the boys through their time at CBC and help them experience success and personal excellence. CBC exists as part of the Catholic faith tradition and it is important that students understand what that means, where the values and traditions of the school come from and why they are so important. We aim to teach the students about the beliefs, teachings and practices of the Catholic faith to achieve this objective. We also aim to link this to the world the students live in so they can see Christ’s actions in the world and the value of being part of a community that cares for creation and social justice. As part of this, prayer and reflection is also important and we endeavour to give students an understanding of this in our classes. In a time of materialism and individualism it is important to show students the counter-cultural point of view that religion presents. Thank you to all the wonderful parents who have supported the staff and students in their studies offering help and encouragement to boys as due dates need to be met and exams need to be prepared for. Thank you also to all the students who have worked hard on developing personal excellence in this learning area. Finally, I would like to extend my thanks to the wonderful teachers of Religious Education who continue to apply best practice in the planning, programming and implementation of their lessons. As a team we look forward to the continued development of this learning area and an exciting and enriching 2017.

CHRISTIAN SERVICE LEARNING It was another successful year for the Service programme at CBC. All of the usual activities were undertaken with vigour; Soup Patrol, Good Start Breakfast, All Things Techno and many more. The Christmas Appeal and Project Compassion once again demonstrated our community’s continuing commitment to those less fortunate, with countless hampers and thousands of dollars being donated locally and internationally. This year students were also introduced to the concept of advocacy. Advocacy can be defined as speaking, acting and writing on behalf of a disadvantaged individual or group to promote, protect and defend their welfare and justice. In the first term, the College stood in solidarity with asylum seekers. In February, the High Court made a decision that upheld the legality of the government’s offshore processing regime. This resulted in 237 asylum seekers facing the prospect of being sent back to Nauru. In protest, 37 pairs of children’s booties were hung from the High Street fence, representing the number of innocent children impacted by this decision. Staff and students
were encouraged to discuss the consequences of the High Court’s ruling in their classes, and boys were encouraged to continue these conversations beyond the school walls. Second semester brought with it another opportunity for students to speak and act in defence of the welfare of others. From 26 to 29 October, CBC participated in the Polished Man campaign, an innovative advocacy and fundraising initiative that challenged men to end violence against children by painting one fingernail to represent the one in five children affected. Over the three days, 197 staff and students had a nail painted, and the College raised $1,298, nearly triple the original target of $500. Next year will surely bring more opportunities for students to expand their commitments to serving their community, and they will continue to be invited to advocate for those who need their support.

INDIGENOUS RECONCILIATION With reconciliation being a key issue in today’s society and a focus at CBC Fremantle, two of our biggest events this year have been National Sorry Day and NAIDOC Week. To celebrate National Sorry Day a contingent of CBC students attended an event at Wellington Square in Perth. At CBC, we are fortunate to have two very strong Year 11 Aboriginal leaders in Nathaniel Bond-Williams and Harry Golding, who were both invited to address the thousands of people in attendance. The boys spoke about what Indigenous success means to them, inspiring many young people, warming the hearts of elders and opening the eyes of many more. Throughout the day our students experienced cultural dances, ceremonies, information sessions and other reconciliation building activities. NAIDOC Week is a special time at CBC Fremantle where we highlight the achievements and acknowledge the roles Indigenous peoples, past and present, have played in building this community. There were a number of activities throughout the week including: • Opening assembly where Harry Golding and Jimmy Roe-Thompson spoke about what NAIDOC Week means to them. Students were also treated to a display of Aboriginal dancing. • The annual CBC and Clontarf Aboriginal College exhibition football game. • A visit from Bindoon Agricultural College students and exhibition basketball game. • Year 7 day with activities run by AIME and ICEA.

Once again AIME has supported our Aboriginal students at CBC Fremantle with a weekly tutor group and a series of events at the University of Notre Dame. The volunteers who work for AIME, led by Sharna Ninyette, do an amazing job offering extra support and guidance for our students with an emphasis on leadership and personal excellence. It has been an absolute pleasure watching these boys grow and develop over the year and I cannot thank AIME enough for their support. Mr Jason Matthews Indigenous Reconciliation Coordinator

“The weekly Eucharistic celebration held every Thursday in Blessed Edmund Chapel serves as a vital source of spiritual nourishment for the whole CBC community.” LITURGIES AND RETREATS The formation of the boys according to the rich traditions of CBC by being faithful to the four Edmund Rice Education Australia Touchstones has been my dauntless pursuit since I commenced as the Coordinator of Liturgies and Retreats in the middle of last year. The engine room of the spiritual energy is the worship and retreat hours the boys spend during their journey to realise the CBC quest, Today’s boys … Tomorrow’s gentlemen. The core of Catholic life emanates from the celebration of the Holy Eucharist. The weekly Eucharistic celebration held every Thursday in Blessed Edmund Chapel serves as a vital source of spiritual nourishment for the whole CBC community. We are a privileged and lucky College to be imbued with the spirit of Christ through these weekly Masses thanks to the contribution of the hosting and participating Mentor classes and the teachers who have been an absolute pleasure to work with. A special mention of thanks is due to our principal Mr Shaun Kenny, Vice Principal Mr Domenic Burgio and Deputy Principal Ms Marianne O’Neill for their introductory and final address to the students at Mass, promoting their active participation in Liturgy by making reference to the Gospel of the day and the homily. This celebration extends to all facets of CBC life through other liturgical celebrations and retreats for the CBC community at large. The most significant part of the liturgical calendar occurs during the Lenten Term, starting with the grand Opening Mass, Ash Wednesday, weekly Masses, Year 10 Retreat, Reconciliations and the College’s Easter Liturgy. My second year at CBC as the Coordinator of Liturgies and retreats commenced with the Edmund Term. I cherished the support and cooperation of all staff and students, especially my colleagues in the Religious Education department. The highlights were the Mother’s Day Liturgy which was the most vital part of the day’s celebrations and unique to CBC. Mothers, grandmothers and students were all actively involved in different parts of the Liturgy to their utmost satisfaction and pleasure.

“The Glory of God is man fully alive,” said St Ireneus. Growth in spirituality is the most significant part of Today’s Boys developing to be Tomorrow’s Gentlemen in the spirit of Blessed Edmund Rice who followed the path of the Gospel of Christ. In Edmund Term Year 12 and Year 8 students were involved in their retreats, which were conducted in an atmosphere conducive to intensive reflection on a relationship with Christ in their journey towards the fullness of humanity. While the Year 12 retreat was facilitated by the Youth Ministry Team, the Year 8 students were led to spiritual reflections by the inspirational talks of the Year 11 Trial Prefects and by Br Brian Cleary’s spiritual insights into the life of teenagers. Saints Term was categorised by the Year 11 retreat for which the animators were Br Brian Cleary and Mr Sandro

Sandri, the theme being On the Threshold of Manhood. The contribution of RE staff including Ms Marriann O’Neill and the inspirational sharing of Mr Stephen Hunter made the retreat a great success, with the Year 11 students ready to assume their roles as accomplished Gentlemen of CBC in 2017. The final Liturgies, Graduation Mass and Reconciliations became the mark of Advent Term. The two highlights were the Year 12 Graduation Mass and the final stage of The Rite Journey for Year 9 students. The Graduation Mass was such a moving ceremony with Year 12 students proudly taking up several roles in the Liturgy to make it a meaningful and spiritually enriching experience for all. The Rite Journey came to a culmination with the retreat Near Restful Waters facilitated by myself and Mr Sandro Sandri who has an exceptional ability to bring home the message of the Gospel. The students were led on a simulated experience of walking along the Sea of Galilee, while actually they were on the shores of the Swan River. The way Mr Sandri integrated the teachings of Christ in four different stations representing the Galilean towns Capernaum, Bethsaida, Tiberius and Gennesareth gave the students a deep spiritual experience. The Washing of the Feet ceremony modelled after the Last Supper of Jesus epitomised the day’s events, which led the students to a vital transformation on their journey towards manhood. The commitment of CBC to the spiritual growth of the whole community is expressed through the Family masses celebrated in St Patrick’s Basilica. These family masses promote the significance of the practice of participating in the Sunday worship as a community. The different

roles played by the students of CBC in the Eucharistic celebrations and the singing of the College Choir directed by Mrs Emma Tandy make it a vibrant Liturgy. The Extraordinary Ministers of the Eucharist at CBC are trained for distributing Holy Communion during nearly 50 Eucharistic celebrations that occur during the course of the year. The nine students selected for 2017 from the Year 11 cohort underwent a whole day training session at the Redemptorist Retreat Centre. The contribution of Ms Maria Garbin towards the formation of these students is acknowledged with thanks and appreciation. The spiritual epitome of CBC was reached for 24 Year 11 students during the Kairos retreat facilitated by Ms Trevanna Cooper, Mrs Emma Tandy, Mr Jason Matthews, Year 12 students Rafael Cipriano and Lachlan Hinton, and alumni Mathew Thomas and Kurtis Gray. The students experienced an immersion into the values of Christ for four days, staying in the Retreat House at Safety Bay. Our sincere thanks to Ms Cooper for her flawless organisation of the Retreat. Finally, it is my pleasure to acknowledge the contributions of Ms Marriann O’Neill, the ever-willing support and input of Ms Sarah Quin and the RE staff, the dedication and commitment of Fr John Sebastian to all our Liturgies and Retreats, and the cooperation of all the staff and parents. May God shower His blessings on our CBC community and strengthen our bond as one family in our journey with the boys towards becoming tomorrow’s gentlemen.

ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE PROGRAMME MS MARILYN SCHMIDT AEP COORDINATOR
CBC Fremantle provides opportunities for all students to strive for personal excellence every week, every day, every lesson! The Academic Excellence Programme (AEP) identifies and selects students who are striving for and achieving academic excellence. These students are gifted and talented academically and they excel at thinking and reasoning, solving problems and understanding across the different learning areas. The criteria to be invited to join the AEP are as follows: a student has to achieve above the 85th percentile in at least three of the five core subjects of English, Maths, Science, HASS and RE. It may be argued that these boys are born with fortunate gene combinations. However, talent is never enough. These boys apply themselves and strive to do better, to understand more and in greater depth, and as they get older, as they continue to strive for academic excellence, we all benefit from their work, their ideas, their inventions and their solutions to challenges. The AEP students have opportunities to participate in relevant and engaging learning opportunities within and outside the school curriculum. The boys also participate in competitions, listen to guest speakers and take part in excursions within seven different interest groups: • Maths & Engineering • Science & Technology • Literature & Media • Robotics • Debating • Radio • Motorsports
historic and scientific importance. The very full programme included debating a bill in the Houses of Parliament, conducting experiments at the CSIRO, visiting art galleries and museums, attending a session at the High Court, meeting Sir Peter Cosgrove at Government House and respecting the past and present armed forces at the Australian War Memorial. In May, for the first time, Year 12 boys attended the Gifted and Talented Conference held at St Hilda’s School. In the words of Emmanuel Terzoudis-Lumsden: “It was an enlightening experience and the topics presented were both thought-provoking and engaging. It provided me with the opportunity to question my own beliefs and provided a new perspective on things I had never thought about before and considered immutable or unquestionable.” In June, the inaugural AEP Showcase was held for students, parents and teachers to celebrate what the boys were doing in the different groups throughout the year through a wonderful interactive display of projects and photographs. The Radio boys broadcast the evening live and conducted interviews, and the Debating boys held an intense and succinct debate. Thank you to Jack Bowater, one of our exceptional Year 12 students, who was an eloquent master of ceremonies. I am grateful to all the teachers who so willingly and enthusiastically plan and run the various aspects of the programme, and thank them for their unswerving commitment to providing our boys with so many excellent opportunities.

LITERATURE & MEDIA Given the current media climate where selfies, social media fans and bloggers seem to dominate, it is great to see the Literature & Media students get behind a real camera and learn about the art of photography. Almost every College function has been captured by one of our team, from carnivals to Open Day and incursions. This year has unfortunately been a little dry in terms of excursions with many media outlets no longer allowing student visits. Also light on this year, was our competition success; despite several entries in the competitions run by The West Australian we did not make the finalists list, but it was time we gave the others schools a chance! Our two projects again this year were the Awards Evening and Graduation short films. This year the productions were
slick and professional, thanks to the expertise of Ms Lana De Palma and our Year 12 leadership group. We sadly farewell Keane Bourke and Paul Jardine-Clarke who were founding members of the group and instrumental in its growth and development. These two boys deserve to be congratulated on their extensive contributions and the way they mentor the other members. Special thanks also to Will Glover, Jason Jakovcevic, Ned Marshall and Peter Hudson for their fine contributions to these projects. Thanks to all the boys for their enthusiasm throughout 2016, you have been delightful and inspiring! Ms Larrisa Dodsworth and Ms Lana De Palma Literature & Media Group Coordinators

MATHS & ENGINEERING Every alternate Tuesday afternoon, as part of the Academic Excellence Programme, 25 to 35 boys who are gifted mathematically meet to explore Maths challenges and to engage in engineering projects. The first few weeks of the year concentrated on divergent thinking and the solving of mathematical problems. Collaborative learning and working together are essential in tackling these problems as they are designed to ensure that students think creatively. Teams of boys then competed in the Have Sum Fun Maths competition run by the Mathematics Association of Western Australia. The boys certainly enjoyed each of these evenings and participated with great enthusiasm. During Term 2, Year 11 boys attended the University of Western Australia Exploring Engineering day and gained insight into the many varied aspects of engineering. Simon Cloete, a mechanical engineer, was a guest speaker who explained how gas wells are designed and drilled off shore. The junior boys designed and built towers which were judged on height, creativity of design and the ability to withstand earthquakes. The maths of log functions and the Richter scale were introduced to the boys as an extension of this tower project. Term 3 saw the Maths & Engineering and the Science & Technology boys participating in a Coding Challenge run by the University of Sydney throughout Australia and New Zealand. Every week the boys had to write programmes to complete the problem and submit them. The challenge this year had 37,876 code submissions and more than 2.5 million problem runs! Two boys did exceptionally well; Year 8 students Matthew Medin and Lucas Benino both achieved perfect scores. The focus during Term 4 was again on Maths problem solving. As the great 20th Century mathematician, Shakuntala Devi, wrote: “Without mathematics, there’s nothing you can do. Everything around you is mathematics. Everything around you is numbers.” Ms Marilyn Schmidt Maths & Engineering Group Coordinator

RADIO This was the first year that 89.2FM CBC Radio was included in the Academic Excellence Programme. It featured in the first AEP showcase evening where Year 9 students Kye Mitchell-Bathgate, Anton La Macchia and Daniel Page set up a temporary studio and ran a show, including live interviews. The exercise tested the boys’ technical knowledge and logistical teamwork, but they thrived on the challenge, and it really provided the evening with an extra dimension. MOTORSPORTS This year heralded the establishment of the AEP Motorsport programme to provide an opportunity for students to gain an understanding of key vehicle components and systems. The boys gained a lot of satisfaction from dismantling a Remote Control car and then rebuilding it with their own modifications. Changes to suspension systems, wheel bases and steering geometry were trialled and the performance of the modified vehicles compared. The results were varied and somewhat unexpected, but after many failures and crashes, the students gained an appreciation of vehicle design.
We had a big influx with 21 Year 7 students joining the Radio group at the start of the year. It was a big task to initiate the recruits into putting on a radio show. They were taught microphone skills, choosing the right music, how to edit articles for broadcasting and the restrictions of copyright laws. To their credit, the novices were broadcasting by Term 2. Two of our Year 9 boys, Peter Hudson and Anton La Macchia, ventured into the realm of the talkback show. After a few initial hiccups, their programme is now a weekly event.
Mr Geoff Buss and Mr Matthew Stockton Motorsport Group Coordinators
Finally, a huge thank you to all the Year 12 students who were the backbone of Radio for the past six years. Many of them were too busy to participate this year but dedicated Keane Bourke stuck with us to the end, supervising shows, haranguing Year 7s and generally being a great role model to the youngsters. It’s been such a pleasure to work with them all.

SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY The AEP Science and Technology group were exposed to various physical science concepts throughout the year with the students performing a number of experiments and participating in competitions. Students engaged in some old fashioned alchemy by turning old copper coins into ‘gold’ and ‘silver’ coins. They also competed against each other designing paper airplanes using modern techniques; many of the paper airplanes didn’t resemble traditional designs but flew far better, especially when launched from the Staffroom balcony! Students also investigated pulley systems, engaged in structural design challenges and, during Science Week, the group was expanded to accommodate students designing Remote Control cars that could battle it out in the ‘Arena of Death’. The undeniable champion was a steel-clad design, complete with spikes which looked straight out of a scene from Mad Max. In all of the experiments and challenges, the students did a wonderful job of combining their skills from other disciplines to come up with novel designs and solutions to problems. The boys performed exceptionally well throughout the year and should be congratulated – thanks to all for their commitment and perseverance!

DEBATING Momentum continued to grow in the CBC Debating programme in 2016 with the College’s senior team making it all the way through to the Western Australian Debating League (WADL) semi-final. The team, consisting of College Captain and Australian Lions Youth of the Year Riley Faulds, Debating Captain Nathan Rowe and Year 11 Prefect Ned Marshall, competed strongly throughout a long season. They were supported well throughout the year by fellow team members Paul Jardine-Clarke, Jacob Fitzpatrick and Samuel Sheridan who wrote and delivered persuasive speeches to get them into the finals. The College added a Year 7 team to the programme this year and the boys did a fantastic job debating against the older teams. Our young gents were tiny in stature but they took it right up to the more experienced debaters with their compelling arguments about a range of topics. We rotated six students through the three speaker roles and hopefully next year we will recruit a few more Years 7 and 8 students so that we can have two teams in the novice division. Our dedicated Year 9 debaters moved up into the junior division this year and held their own mainly against Year 10 students. CBC1 recorded two out of five wins and our CBC2 team narrowly missed moving through to the preliminary finals after winning four out of five debates during the season. This is the third year debating for most of the boys and their persuasive and public speaking skills have improved immensely. The two Year 9 teams did a very good job of demonstrating the ‘sport’ of debating in June at the AEP Showcase evening when they debated against each other.
We are excited to announce that next year Jacob Fitzpatrick is the College’s first Debating Prefect to help develop the programme. We will also be inviting WADL committee members to run workshops with our teams to help improve weaknesses we have identified this season. We would like to thank all the parents and supporters of the debaters this season. The boys love to debate to an audience and we understand the effort put in by families to help prepare the speakers and to get them to the venue to compete. We would also like to thank the staff at the College who came along and supported the boys, particularly Ms Shoshanna Beins who was there urging the boys on most weeks.

ROBOTICS Try pulling a few strings attached to the limbs of a marionette so that it can move like a human – easy! Try, instead of strings, using a remote control device and, by manipulating a joystick, making a car or a puppet move at your every command. Again, not too difficult a feat. However, these mechanisms would not be robots because they are operating entirely under our control. Now, try building a robot that can move only from the instructions we have given it. Try making it react to some obstacles that may or may not be in its path. That’s hard! Very hard in fact. Yet students in the Robotics club gather every Tuesday after school, try the seemingly impossible and succeed regularly. Well done lads! Your determination, your motivation and your commitment have been inspirational and uplifting.

One of the highlights this year in our dynamic Arts department was the College’s production of Twelve Angry Men, which was superbly directed by Drama teacher, Mrs Rosalba Jeffreys. Mrs Jeffreys also directed Dramarama, which was an evening showcasing the talents of our upper school courses and also included short excerpts by students in Years 8 to 10. Another highlight on the Arts calendar was the annual Visual Art Exhibition. Mrs Stephanie Hantzis, in conjunction with Mrs Zoe Francis and Mrs Leanne Ogden, helped to guide and inspire our Visual Art students to prepare and present works that highlighted the depth of talent that is developing in our studios. As a testament to the hard work going on in Visual Art, CBC had students’ work exhibited at the annual Angelico Exhibition for Catholic Schools, CBC Visual and Performing Arts Festival and the CBC Visual Art Exhibition. We are looking forward to seeing some of our students’ work in the Year 12 Perspectives Showcase, where the best works by students in the ATAR Visual Art course are selected to be displayed in the Art Gallery of WA.

DRAMA Every year in Drama we get busier and better and 2016 was no exception with Years 7 to 12 building their confidence and grappling with the rigours of the courses and public performances. The students have a lot of fun and tell me that the performing and group dynamic activities are “the best bits”. Year 7 students focused on Melodrama and Improvisation and Year 8 boys spent some time Play Building with introduction to mythological characters. Year 9 students had fun with duologues and Greek theatre. Realistic Australian Drama to Ancient Classical Drama was tackled by Year 10, and the senior students split into General and ATAR courses with a very full curriculum 50% practical and 50% theory. The year was full of very enjoyable and very boisterous classes. It isn’t often that we have quiet times, sometimes not even in performance.

Many of the practical tasks were brushed up again for Term 3’s inaugural Dramarama, a night of monologues, duologues, scenes, script extracts, and original plays and skits. It was two hours of thoroughly enjoyable pure indulgence in theatrical excess for an audience of staff, parents and friends. Twelve Angry Men by Reginald Rose was an absolutely magnificent production and I am so proud of the students involved. It is a play where all the actors are on stage the entire time. The play runs in real time over a couple of hours of deliberation by a jury for a murder charge on a young boy of 16. Intense, gripping drama. The focus and discipline of these Drama students, ranging from Year 9 to Year 12 was astonishing. I was amazed and I have done more productions than I care to mention. The students who participated were so committed and worked as an ensemble from the beginning of rehearsals in Term 4 of 2015 right up to the closing night on 5 April, the end of Term 1 in 2016. I fondly farewell the wonderful Year 12 Drama students of 2016 who have been so generous with their time and efforts over the last six years, and look forward to the next group as they come through. Mrs Rosalba Jeffreys Drama Teacher
VISUAL ART The Visual Arts programme this year has been one of enthusiasm, challenges and exciting new directions. Art students from Years 7 to 12 have worked hard to develop a diverse range of visual inspirations from the studio areas of drawing, painting, printmaking, ceramics, photography and mixed media artworks. There were a few changes within the Art department in 2016 with Mrs Stephanie Hantzis taking on the fulltime teaching position from mid Term 2 while Ms Zoe Francis went on 12 months’ maternity leave. Mrs Leanne Ogden joined the Arts area, working with our Year 10 students. We look forward to welcoming Ms Francis back in 2017 and thank Mrs Ogden for her contribution.
This year we were very excited to see the re-establishment of the Ceramics programme at the College. We now have a kiln and drying racks and were also fortunate enough to purchase a pottery wheel and clay extruder, which we hope will be put to good use next year. The Year 9 students were the first to make use of these new facilities, creating a variety of ceramic heads. These wonderful works were the first to be fired using the new equipment; a very thrilling moment for all. As usual, CBC students prepared artwork for the Annual Angelico Art Exhibition. Catholic schools from around the state exhibit up to six pieces of art from Years 7 to 12 and once again we were honoured by the exceptional accomplishments of our students. The boys who exhibited individually were Thomas Gleeson (Year 11), Kyle Kennedy

(Year 10), Harry O’Neill (Year 10), Jaedyn Stumbles (Year 12) and Isaac Wieser (Year 8). A Year 8 group piece was submitted by Christian Gentile, Rhys Harvey, Oscar Holden, Xander Jones and Jimmy Roe Thompson. The Visual Arts courses encouraged a range of diverse images and sculptures. In Year 7 these included designer shoes inspired by the theme summertime and paintings based on the works of Eric Abel and Hunderstwasser. These studio pieces were vibrant, original and fun. The Year 8 students became very familiar with themselves, learning and understanding how to create beautiful tonal pencil self-portraits which then became the basis of paintings using acrylic paint on wood board. Year 9 students worked with local Fremantle Artist Anya Brock for the majority of the year, using a variety of mediums on a multitude of surfaces. These students also looked at modern architecture and created interesting Intaglio prints. In Term 3 they created hand-built ceramic heads, some of which coincidentally took on personal attributes. Year 10 students focussed on Australian artist Brett Whiteley and were introduced to oil painting. In Visual Art we saw the return of the Master Classes for a total of two hours per week over 10 weeks. The Year 11 ATAR students participated enthusiastically, learning valuable skills. Our senior students worked tirelessly, gaining many new skills from wood cut prints to drawing using black scratch board. The standard of work achieved by each and every student in both the General and ATAR classes was of a very high standard and a definite highlight at this year’s exhibition. A special mention must go to our three Year 12 ATAR students, Yusef Hourani, Harrison McKeown and Jaedyn Stumbles. These students’ achievements this year were original and outstanding. Working in a different medium for each of their two projects, these three boys produced studio works that were captivating. Congratulations to all the students who participated enthusiastically in the Visual Arts; your work and attitude was outstanding, allowing us to provide a rich and engaging programme for each and every one of you.

“We are very fortunate to have some really good talent coming up through the ranks.” MUSIC The Music programme incorporates individual instrumental lessons and the classroom electives, which provides an opportunity to further a student’s understanding of the music language while also building upon his ability to perform as part of a band, ensemble or choir. A CBC musician who involves himself in all three of these performance areas while at the College, will be able to gain valuable skills, not just as a musician but also as a young gentleman, developing in the areas of responsibility, commitment, generosity, self-confidence and modesty, to name a few. Over the last 12 months, CBC students involved in our ensembles participated in a weekend recording project which resulted in a great snapshot of 13 tunes that were distributed on CD to families. Some other highlights from the year included the Big Band appearing in Forrest Place as part of the Catholic Education Office Festival Carnevale; the Jazz Orchestra and Combo performance at the Ellington Jazz Club, and our annual Visual Performing Arts Festival. Our College Choir has strengthened throughout the year and Mrs Emma Tandy has worked hard with her vocal students to create an ensemble which performs in the a’capella style, allowing for a diverse range of songs and styles at our concerts. Their version of Billy Joel’s The Longest Time was particularly impressive, and the performance of Southland Concerto from the Power of One movie soundtrack at the annual Awards Evening
was a tribute to Mrs Tandy’s guidance and the boys’ commitment. We are fortunate to have some really good talent coming up through the ranks. I would like to thank our Music Parents’ Group under the guidance of our President, Mrs Giselle Pangiarella. This hard-working committee enables events to progress smoothly and is of great support to myself and the other Music teachers at the College. Finally, thank you to Mrs Emma Tandy, Mr Kim Anning, Mr Alex Borthwick, Mrs Gemma Farrell, Mr Carl Harper, Mr Harrison Mitchell, Mr Luciano Trebse, Mr Manoli Vouyoucalos and Mr Tim Woolley. Your talents and passion for educating our music students are greatly appreciated and we look forward to another exciting year in 2017. Mr Shane Mancuso Head of the Arts

ENGLISH MR CLINTON TESTA HEAD OF ENGLISH
This year has been a period of re-generation and change in the English department from the beginning to the end. The start of the school year saw an addition to the department of two new and energetic teachers: Mr Anthony Maher and Miss Nicole Papas. Although only with us for a short time as maternity leave replacements, both wielded a very positive influence on the students in their care. The Australian Curriculum continued to influence the development of our courses, with significant changes to the Year 12 units providing students with a greater array of text types and assessment modes. Feedback from students was overwhelmingly positive, with the semester’s work on dystopian texts generating plenty of thoughtprovoking and stimulating discussion. THEATRE VISITS Our Years 11 and 12 Literature students were privileged to attend a number of theatre events and witnessed some of the most ground-breaking and fascinating performances to have visited Perth in a long time. The Tiger Lillies’ rock operatic adaptation of Hamlet had to be seen to be believed, with a mind-blowing soundtrack combined with an inventive stage direction providing students with a truly unique experience. The Wild Duck exposed the audience to minimalist drama at its best, with all the action taking place within a large perspex box and with very few props to support the powerful performances of the cast. The Australian classic novel Picnic at Hanging Rock was adapted to stage and lived up to its spooky (and, at times, terrifying) reputation which kept the audience suitably on edge. Finally, in second semester, students had the opportunity to see a performance of Othello at the Heath Ledger Theatre, which supported the Year 11 students’ study of the text, and rounded out a year of high-quality theatre experiences. SAID POETS’ SOCIETY Year 10 students were introduced to the world of Slam Poetry with a series of workshops hosted by the Said Poets’
Society. Performance poets shared their work, and offered a series of original workshop activities to inspire students to write their own slam poems. The end results were an impressive collection of works which were performed by the bulk of the cohort. In 2017, we hope to perform some of these end-products on a grander scale in order to recognise the fantastic efforts put in by the Year 10 students. ORACY As is the norm, our Year 8 students completed their Oracy assessments during fourth term. The past few years have seen vast improvements in our results, and this year proved to be no different. Assessed across four different modes of public speaking, students are required to speak for about 15 minutes in front of a small group of their peers, reciting poetry, reading from a novel of their choosing, and talking openly about a topic of personal interest. They are also required to spontaneously respond to questions from their audience. This year, 22 students achieved the highest qualification of ‘Outstanding’ in this assessment, the largest number to achieve that ranking in the last five years. All Year 8 students are to be commended on their commitment to achieving personal excellence in this assessment. In closing, I’d just like to thank everyone who has been involved with the College while I have been at CBC. As my time here has come to an end, I’ve been able to reflect on the many positive relationships I have formed – my colleagues in the English office, the other staff, and with the students and their families. I will forever cherish the people I have met along the way, and the many and varied experiences I have been able to fit into 13 years within such a supportive, generous and tight-knit community. I would like to wish all of you the very best for the future, and hope that our paths will cross again some day. Mr Clinton Testa Head of English

HUMANITIES & SOCIAL SCIENCES MR CRAIG CARTER HEAD OF HASS
It has been a fantastic year in the Humanities & Social Sciences Learning Area. We have been heavily involved in providing the students with enriching activities both inside and outside of the classroom. The 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 are to be congratulated for their achievement. • A highlight of 2016 was HASS week with activities including a debate with Santa Maria College on lowering the voting age; a teacher costume day where one teacher even dressed as Donald Trump (to a mixed response from the students), and various other quizzes and competitions. Students in lower school have been involved in a variety of learning experiences both inside and outside of the classroom: • The Year 7 students have studied Ancient China and Greece, World Environments, Active Citizenship and skills such as mapping. CLOCKWISE FROM TOP LEFT In the field with Geography; Business Management & Enterprise Market Day; Australian History studies; 1890 History project; Year 8 World Fair.

• The Year 8 students have been studying Planet Earth, Financial Literacy 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. • The Year 9 students were involved in a number of valuable learning experiences in units such as Law, Government, Financial Literacy and Australian History. The highlight of the Year 9 learning was the 1890s project where boys created a display focussing on a period in history. • The 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 Humanities & Social Sciences. The Year 11 and 12 Geography students have been involved in a number of field trips and the Amazing Race around the City of Perth. Year 11 Business Management & Enterprise students had a fantastic market day where they learnt a lot about running a business in the food and beverage industry and the Year 12 cohort prepared diligently for their WACE exams. Sincere thanks must go to all the Humanities & Social Sciences 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.

ITALIAN MRS SILVIA ROMAGNOLI HEAD OF ITALIAN
The 2016 year saw the Italian tour as the major highlight. Sixty CBC boys had the opportunity to experience la dolce vita, in a full immersion of history, culture and the good life! The tour increased the boys’ willingness to learn Italian and to improve their conversational skills in order to be able to have a conversation with a bella ragazza along the Italian piazza while ordering a pizza or gelato. This year the Italian teaching was enhanced by the presence of an exchange student from Milan, Luca, who delighted students and teachers with his witty presence and challenged the boys’ confidence in speaking Italian. Although his stay was short term, he left a lasting memory, especially among his Year 11 peers. With 120 students over four classes, Miss De Palma and Mrs Bacich definitely had their hands full with the Year 7 cohort. Lucky for them, they had a passion to learn the language and it was clear that studying the culture was only the almond on the biscotti! The boys blitzed the easy tasks, such as the alphabet and basic conversation skills, and worked extra hard on tackling some more difficult components of the language. They definitely didn’t shy away from learning how to play Scopa, a traditional card game. Year 8 students enjoyed increasing their linguistic skills; it was wonderful to see 92 students continue with their Italian studies. The concepts became more complex and the tasks became more difficult, but the boys took on the opportunity to challenge themselves, all the while
smiling. Playing Tombola became the highlight of the end of each term. The Year 9 group enjoyed their linguistic skills relating to food and are becoming sophisticated appreciators of Italian cuisine. In Term 3 they had the opportunity to practice the language at a restaurant in Fremantle. La Sosta was a lot of fun that left the boys discussing their experience for weeks. The learning highlight for the Year 10 boys was Italian cinema. In Term 2 they had the opportunity to share their language passion with Santa Maria College students for an afternoon of Italian conversation, activities and food. The Year 11 boys focused on their ATAR course and enjoyed the learning throughout the year. In Term 3 they met Santa Maria College Italian students, challenging their speaking skills, and increasing their knowledge of the language they are learning while making new friends. The Year 12 Italian students are now experienced practitioners of the language. They are to be congratulated on their dedication and commitment to their studies, and we wish them well for their future.

LIBRARY MS TREVANNA COOPER LIBRARIAN This year started well with the Idea Shop buying Glogster licences for the Year 7 students to create their own digital posters in English, which included text, photographs, video and in some cases, animation. Mrs Griffin, our Multimedia Technician, demonstrated how to use the program then we had a multitude of interesting Glogsters inspiring us with a plethora of unusual things including knot-tying and how to perform an ‘olly’ with a skateboard. One Idea Shop initiative this year was to buy a special projector that turned a blank wall into an interactive whiteboard. By touching the wall, students can use their fingers like a computer mouse to investigate websites, and in this case, digital posters. Our website also became fully operational this year, thanks to the untiring work of Mrs Griffin. It features new acquisitions, upcoming books, radio shows, the latest edition of apptastic (our own monthly app review brochure), inventorspace and other news. Another new venture was to create TV commercials and run them on the Idea Shop’s televisions. We’ve recently started downloading book trailers and running them too, and also any photos of students we can find. I think we must have featured every school tour, sports day, and any other activity that has happened this year, and the boys continue to visit us in droves.

year has been to enter the 3,000 plus names from the 1941 to 1972 Admissions Register on to the Library computer system. This enables students and Old Boys to look up the names of other family members who came to CBC and once they’ve found a scanned record or photograph, they can print it and take it home. In Term 4, ex-student Broden Olivieri, who is studying prop-making for stage at university, volunteered to run a workshop for students, teaching them how to make zombie heads. The boys used resin to model the dead skin and the results were amazing. Mr Olivieri was a very patient and competent teacher who left the boys clamouring for more. We embraced the cold weather during winter and initiated Hot Chocolate Tuesday, with a space to sit, read and enjoy a free hot chocolate. Zealously guarded by Ms Eades, the reading retreat is enjoyed by more than a dozen regulars. It has again been an extremely busy year in the Idea Shop. The Radio station broadcast several times each week and all our usual activities like the Codebreaker Challenge, Stig and various others were very popular. It is an exciting and challenging place to work and the library staff – Mrs Catherine Griffin, Ms Michelle Eades and Ms Trevanna Cooper – thoroughly enjoy it.

MATHEMATICS MR ANDRE LEICESTER HEAD OF MATHEMATICS
The introduction of the Senior Australian Curriculum this year has brought wonderful opportunities for Mathematics staff to reflect on current standards and find ways to improve our professional practices. We have also been challenged to increasingly incorporate the effective use of technology in our lessons. INTERACTIVE LEARNING WEBSITES In the past 10 years the Mathematics field has witnessed a cornucopia of related software and interactive websites designed to aid teaching and learning of the subject. It has been our aim to find the best possible of these tools that will complement effectively our teaching methodologies. Recent reports have highlighted that multiple choice style questions are not an effective way to diagnose a student’s comprehension of mathematics, and therefore we have terminated the use of Mathletics, Hotmaths and Mangahigh as of 2016. To replace these we have embraced Mathspace which offers an embedded diagnostic tool that provides feedback to the student and the teacher. The software is able to analyse the student’s responses to a particular question and then suggest a more appropriate worksheet that builds the prior knowledge required to comprehend the topic being taught.
This website is fully mapped to the Australian curriculum and it is currently being used for students in Year 7 through to Year 10. The department intents to extend its use for the senior years once appropriate support for these subjects becomes available. MATHS HELP Maths Help gives students, irrespective of year group or maths pathway, the opportunity to have individual help or ‘tutoring’ for two hours after school every week. Students continue to make excellent use of this service and the increased demand has required that more Mathematics teachers are available during these times. At times this year, we had three classrooms accommodating the large number of students attending. On Wednesdays the teachers available were Mrs Andrew, Mr Leicester and Miss Tognolini, while on Thursdays the supervising teachers were Mr Jones, Mr Kennedy, Ms Schmidt and Mr Travis. Therefore, every student had their respective classroom teacher present at different times which made it even easier to cater for each student’s individual needs.

HAVE SUM FUN COMPETITION CBC Fremantle participates every year in the Have Sum Fun maths competition organised by the Mathematical Association of WA (MAWA). This year we managed to take an extra team to the Senior School event, offering another six boys the opportunity to compete.
Western Australia being the first state to embrace it. CBC offered four mathematical pathways from the AC which replaced the six previous pathways offered under the WA curriculum. The reduced number of pathways did not make any significant change to the number of students taking a university bound mathematics subjects.
All three teams placed in the top set of scores, achieving excellent results for CBC Fremantle.
To adapt to these changes, the Mathematics department has made minor adjustments to the class structure for Years 9 and 10 in 2017, as well as textbook changes for General and Support classes from Years 8 through to Year 10. All of the programmes have been revised to meet the new prerequisites for the Senior Australian Curriculum courses – all changes are posted on Conneqt (Seqta) in a timely manner for students and parents to access.
AUSTRALIAN MATHS COMPETITION This year the results for the AMC were outstanding, with 40% achieving a Credit or Distinction. We are exceptionally proud of our senior classes, which achieved a mean score well above the national average. The AMC is a regular competition that CBC Fremantle participates in and we look forward to the results for 2017 and beyond.

OUTDOOR EDUCATION MR STEPHEN HUNTER OUTDOOR EDUCATION COORDINATOR
Year 8 Outdoor Education was a popular selection this year with more than half the Year 8 cohort selecting it as a subject. As Outdoor Education has a focus on water activities in the following years, students were introduced to water awareness and safety. They had the opportunity to complete an eBronze online course run through the Royal Life Saving Society which involved team building games, working with others, caring for our natural environment and learning various camp craft skills. The Outdoor Education Year 9 students were challenged with units in surf rescue, bodyboarding, navigation and roping. They further developed their understanding of the beach and dangers involved. CBC was lucky enough to team up with members of Leighton Surf Club who were happy to demonstrate various rescue techniques using a variety of equipment. Year 10 students developed their skills and knowledge in snorkelling, fishing and rock climbing, and completed their Bronze Medallion during Term 2. In lower school there was a focus on the participation and enjoyment of activities as well as education in risk management, sustainability, minimal impact practises and general knowledge. The boys in Year 10 were given the chance to demonstrate their skills at the outdoor recreation camp at the end of Term 4. The students were able to use many of the skills they learnt throughout the year in fishing, snorkelling and bodyboarding. They worked together to complete many challenges, including one that involved cooking dinner for the whole group. This was a great way to finish off the year with more than 75 boys in the Outdoor Education
programme. The boys displayed great teamwork and mateship, while also remembering what is involved with risk management and camp organisation. The Year 11 General course is combined with the Certificate II in Outdoor Recreation. During Term 1 the boys further developed their snorkelling skills and knowledge about sea life and safety in the water. Later that term they participated in a day excursion to Mettams Pool where they demonstrated their snorkelling skills in many different settings. To finish the snorkelling unit, the two classes participated in a two-night camp at Rottnest Island where they were able to ride to various fishing and snorkelling spots, including an exciting night dive at The Basin. The Marine Education Boatshed in Fremantle has been a great place for the students to complete their Recreational Skipper’s Ticket and canoeing skills. The students were then able to show off their experience on a three day camp on the Blackwood River near Nannup. In their final year of OE the Year 12 boys completed their General course and their Certificate II in Outdoor Recreation. The boys developed their knots and learned abseil and

climbing set-ups to gain trust and work together. All students completed a day of climbing and abseiling at Churchman’s Brook and an expedition at Wilyabrup Cliffs, including a walk on the Cape to Cape track and a 48m abseil. The final two terms were focused on sailing units at the Marine Education Boatshed. After many hours of learning to sail, the boys were prepared for a three-day sea voyage visiting Fremantle Marina, before heading up the Swan River to set up camp at Pelican Point. We were lucky to have some great wind over the next few days allowing us to head up river past Elizabeth Quay, the new Perth Stadium and into Claisebrook.

PHYSICAL & HEALTH EDUCATION MR ZACHARY PRESTON head of physical education
Physical & Health Education at CBC this year has produced some pleasing results and excellent performances in all areas of the curriculum. A record number of students enrolled in the Year 8 to 10 electives of Sport Science and Outdoor Education and Year 11 and 12 Physical Education Studies and Outdoor Education. It has been great to see the boys choose a subject with both theory and practical components. Physical Education classes have had a focus on developing skills and understanding at all levels and abilities. An emphasis on participation and game sense has been a focus in 2016. From Years 7 to 10 students have been learning a variety of sports such as cricket, tee-ball and AFL. Sport Science in Years 8 to 10 provided students with a solid understanding of the requirements of being an elite athlete and working in the fitness industry. Students have been looking at a variety of topics from fitness testing to completing a coaching certificate in Year 10, and have had the opportunity to try their hand at squash, gridiron and indoor beach volleyball. Health studies in 2016 have given the students an opportunity to develop skills in a wide range of health topics. There was a focus on resilience and good decision making in the areas of bullying, drivers’ education and nutrition. Year 7 Loving for Life father and son night became even bigger this year with at least 50 fathers joining their sons to discuss puberty and relationship
issues for young men. This night complements the Year 10 programme that looks at positive relationships as an adolescent. Year 11 and 12 Physical Education studies continued the students’ experiences in Sport Science with more in-depth analysis of issues in sport. Year 11 students had an exciting experience going to watch the Perth Wildcats train followed by attending a game and after-match function. This allowed the students to gain a first-hand experience of coaching styles and the requirements of an elite sportsman. Students in the General course completed their Certificate II in Sport and Recreation which also included a certificate in Senior First Aid.

In 2016 the Science learning area has continued to build on well-established practices and introduce new ways and approaches to engage and inspire students. Among the young and vibrant staff in the department, the only significant change was the arrival of Mr Jeremy Peris. Being a past pupil at the school, Mr Peris made the transition from graduate to Science teacher with ease.
CBC performed very well in the annual Big Science competition for Years 7 and 8, ICAS (international Competitions and Assessments for Schools) for Years 9 and 10 and the Australian National Chemistry Quiz for Years 11 and 12. Boys who performed particularly well were awarded Distinctions or High Distinctions. The students who received awards are as follows:
This was the second year of the implementation of the new ATAR courses and the first year of the new WACE Science exams. Upper school teachers have been busy ensuring all aspects of the new courses were covered and students were given the best possible opportunity to do well in all assessments.
Big Science Competition Year 7 Distinction: BJ Cunningham, Archie Tither and Matthew Vasta. Year 8 Distinction: Ben Leavy, Indy Imbuldeniya, Jason Mack, Heron Carson, Jackson Young, Kaden Cordisco, Oliver Edmonds and Rohan Groves High Distinction: Samuel Wardle, Kye Sullivan, Archer Larwood and Joseph Davis
One of our main focuses in the Science learning area at CBC is to raise student awareness of the ubiquitous nature of science and technology in everyday life and inspire students to develop a love for the subject. There is a growing emphasis on improving our students’ critical thinking and problem solving skills so they are better equipped to meet not just the demands of upper school and university, but those associated with everyday life. COMPETITIONS, QUIZZES AND SCHOLARSHIPS In the Science learning area we offer a variety of ways for students to develop their knowledge. In addition to the various competitions and quizzes this year, we offered scholarships to the CONOCO Phillips Science Experience Programme to enable students to gain experience in working with scientists using state of the art equipment and to meet other like-minded students. Our recipients this year were Dylan Clifford and Zachary Stedman, and we wish them every success with the programme.

EXCURSIONS AND INCURSIONS Our students were engaged in a number of excursions and incursions this year and they continue to be an integral part of the teaching and learning at the College. The Integrated Science programme, run by Mrs Petrina Richmond, equips students with a broad range of practical skills and the opportunity to complete Certificate II in Sampling and Measurement. In Term 3, both the Year 11 and Year 12 students visited the Harry Perkins Institute medical research facility in Nedlands. The boys were treated to a tour of the labs and then carried out a variety of laboratory procedures including staining and sampling. Also in Term 3, the Year 12 Human Biology and Biology students visited Perth Zoo where students could supplement their studies on evolution. At the start of Term 4, the Year 11 Physics class travelled to the Gravity Discovery Centre. The students climbed the Leaning Tower of Gingin to replicate experiments purported to have been conducted by Galileo Galilei in Pisa. The experiments, which involved dropping water balloons from a height of 45 metres, demonstrated that the balloons would fall at the same speed regardless of their mass. Students also used a vortex cannon, observed magnetic braking systems and prepared for the rigours of being astronauts by pulling extreme g-forces in a simulator. The students were also exposed to views of the cosmos, including an indigenous perspective, and were led through the various attempts to detect gravity waves. Finally, the students experienced a tour of the impressive and more familiar optical telescopes housed at Gingin and learned about the phases of the moon. Year 12 Chemistry students visited the Kwinana industrial complex, including the CSBP and Kleenheat Gas factories. At the end of Term 3 the Year 11 Chemistry students

visited the Chemistry Centre at Curtin University. The students toured the analytical laboratories, gaining valuable experience about important techniques that have recently been added to the new ATAR course. They also had an opportunity to experience what it is like to work as a forensic scientist as they were put through their paces to analyse a mock-up meth lab. NATIONAL SCIENCE WEEK Our theme this year for National Science Week was Droids, Drones and Robots and we had a variety of demonstrations and activities to cater for all tastes. Our Robot Wars, under the direction of Mr Ian Binet and Mr Jeremy Peris, was very popular with the boys. A number of students from various year groups spent time after school customising their robots for the ultimate battle. Mrs Petrina Richmond donned her protective lab gear to share her passion for the science of liquid nitrogen and students in attendance were rewarded with instant ice-cream. Other activities included a Reptiles Incursion for Years 7 and 8, and Robotics Incursion for Years 9 and 10. We also screened our inaugural Scinema International Science Film Festival in the ALA, which featured an excellent documentary on Dr Maurice Hilleman, who was responsible for the development of many important vaccines. Thank you to Mrs Amelia Andrew, Mr Ian Binet, Mrs Chantelle Edwards, Mr John Hortense, Ms Alana Kubicek, Mr Louis Miller, Mrs Nirmala Narayanann, Mr Jeremy Peris, Mr Anthony Rawnsley and Mrs Petrina Richmond for their continued hard work and support. I also thank our students for their inspiring efforts, enthusiasm, diligence, good nature and great sense of humour.

INFORMATION, COMMUNICATION & TECHNOLOGY From a curriculum perspective, we have now fully implemented the new ATAR and General courses with the 2016 ATAR exam for Applied Information Technology, the final part of the implementation process. Thanks to the hard work of Mrs Samantha Emslie and Mrs Vanessa Bacich, the transition was a success and we now move on to improving the delivery of our courses for 2017 and beyond. Although the syllabus is now stable, we continually strive to improve the learning outcomes of our students. The new Digital Technologies curriculum for our Year 7 to 10 students is due for full implementation in 2018. Currently we are rewriting almost all of our lower school ICT courses to transition to the new syllabus. The 2016 school year was devoted to reviewing the new syllabus and looking at how best to take advantage of the changes
so our students gain the most benefit. This syllabus has been developed from the National Curriculum initiative and many learning areas have already successfully integrated these significant changes. At CBC Fremantle, there is an emphasis on students being creators of digital products and solutions rather than mere consumers of content. Although we have always promoted this notion in our courses, a little more thought was given to this area in 2016 and the new courses will reflect more of this next year. In terms of the 1:1 Laptop Programme at CBC, we have placed a lot of emphasis on reviewing the package offered to parents and students. We have seen significant savings in infrastructure and licensing costs in 2015/2016 and, as a result, the ICT levy should reflect a little of these savings gained. Another pleasing development is the emergence

of hybrid devices. After much testing and consultation with vendors, other schools and the College community, we have decided to offer students an HP Elite X2 1012 device to replace end of lease ACER laptops. This device is a high quality tablet/laptop hybrid that gives students complete flexibility in how they incorporate this tool into their educational programmes. It offers keyboard, pen and touch as input methods which caters for most learning styles. During 2016 we trialled the Microsoft Surface with Year 7 boys, an outstanding machine that is matched by the HP device. Choosing student computers is not all about the device but more about the package which includes warranty and insurance for accidental damage. On this front, the HP package was far superior. After a solid and productive 2016, we are excited about 2017 and all that it offers for CBC students.

DESIGN & TECHNOLOGY 2016 has been a busy year in Design & Technology, with students continuing to thrive in the practical environments. This year we welcomed three staff members who contribute to the diverse and dynamic learning programmes in the Bill Hughes Technology Centre: Mr Tim Marlow as workshop technician, Mrs Del Howard as catering technician, and Ms Angela Calanni as our new catering teacher. The workshops have continued their improvement with the addition of new benders and a spot welder in metalwork, with woodwork gaining a new pedestal drill and a wide drum sander. The addition of this machinery continues to keep the workshops at a high standard, with students gaining access to industry specification state of the art equipment. Project work this year has included boxes, model making, chopping boards, clamping devices and chairs in lower school, to furniture and cabinet making in upper school. The quality of work from many students has been exceptional with some pieces being exhibited in this year’s College art exhibition. The catering area has been ignited by the addition of Ms Calanni, ably assisted by Mrs Howard. Class sizes have increased and the boys have been delighted by their weekly food creations that would tantalise even the harshest food critic’s taste buds. From san choy bau, butter
chicken, stir fries, pasta and risotto, to lemon coconut slice, nutella scrolls and a selection of pastries, the boys have had a wide opportunity to get in touch with their inner Jamie Oliver! Highlights of the year have been preparing more than 2,000 pastries for the College Open Day, parents cooking with their sons during Technology Week, and one Year 10 class putting on afternoon tea for their families. I thank all the staff for their hard work throughout the year, and look forward to 2017 and all the wonderful opportunities that it brings. Mr Craig Jordan Design & Technology Coordinator

WORKPLACE LEARNING MR GARRY HART HEAD OF VOCATIONAL EDUCATION & TRAINING
With the goal of preparing our students to be ‘work ready’, this year the College had numerous programmes running internally and externally to promote industry life skills to students before entering the workforce. In 2016, CBC Fremantle completed 59,205 VET hours, with 163 Certificate II, 12 Certificate III and 19 Certificate IV courses successfully completed at the College by the students in the areas of Engineering Pathways, Technical Graphics, Woodwork, Sampling & Measurement, Business, Italian, Information, Communication & Technology, Sport & Recreation and Outdoor Education. I wish to thank an amazing group of teachers who have worked above and beyond their normal teaching load to integrate these VET certificates into WACE courses. This significant additional work has greatly enhanced our students’ employment prospects. At the end of 2015, eight boys competed in the state WorldSkills VET in Schools (VETiS) competition, winning four medals. Kennedy Sorrell (Year 12) won Gold for Construction, Finn Leen (Year 12) won Silver for Construction, Michael Hosking (Year 12) picked up Silver for Construction and Bronze for Engineering, and Mark Quattrini (Class of 2013) won Silver in the Plumbing Apprentice division. This year Kennedy Sorrell and Mark Quattrini represented Western Australia for the Australian title in their respective divisions, and Kennedy was awarded Bronze against the best in the nation. Also this year the ‘Try-a-Trade’ programmes provided 18 Year 10 students with the opportunity to work in a simulated environment to demonstrate their expertise within the trades. The boys experienced tiling, plastering, construction and bricklaying for three days, further guiding their career paths and future choices.

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 their chosen trade. Some of the chosen businesses included plumbing, automotive, marine, veterinary, electrical, building construction and education assistants. By Year 12, the student works with their employer to complete a TAFE Certificate course. This joint opportunity between the College, TAFE and local businesses, can provide CBC students with traineeships or ongoing full-time employment. As Year 12 students enter the workforce, the staff at the College look forward to the many successes and employment opportunities our students obtain. I wish to extend my gratitude to all businesses, families and staff who have assisted in preparing our students for the workforce.

The formality of five Appeal Court judges starting the day’s proceedings, the remarkable Blue Poles by Jackson Pollock, the surprise meeting with the Governor General, Sir Peter Cosgrove, at Government House, the innovations and experiments at the CSIRO, the night time view from the Telstra Tower, the solemnity of the Australian War Memorial … the list of amazing experiences goes on and on. Twenty Academic Excellence Programme boys and two teachers, Mr Andre Leicester and Mrs Marilyn Schmidt, spent the first week of the April holidays in Canberra visiting places of excellence and historical and national importance. The tour consisted of a very full itinerary and the boys engaged in every opportunity that was made available to them. They debated in Old Parliament House, built prototype robots at the Ian Potter Foundation, explored Anzac Parade, minted their own souvenir coins at the National Mint and, for fun, sped around the F1 style circuit on electric go-karts at the Power Kart Raceway. The boys were excellent ambassadors for the College and their families and the tour contributed to each student’s learning journey to develop his gifts and talents in the service of humanity at the highest level.

ITALIAN TOUR KEANE BOURKE YEAR 12
For many, travelling with a group of 60 teenage boys might seem an incredibly daunting task. But, the calibre of CBC boys was again proven over the Term 1 school holidays, with six teachers and 60 students exploring beautiful Italy. The 18 day Italian adventure commenced in Rome, continuing through Pompeii, Sorrento, Capri, Orvieto, Pisa, Florence and Milan, before finishing in Venice. Cultural highlights included visits to the Colosseum, Pompeii, the Leaning Tower, the Uffizi Gallery featuring Botticelli’s The Birth of Venus, Michelangelo’s David at the Accademia, and the Doge’s Palace. Of course, the trip wouldn’t have been complete without experiencing Italy’s rich religious history, including visits to the Vatican, St Mark’s, Milan’s Cathedral and the Duomo, among many others. It wasn’t all work though, the boys also had plenty of downtime to indulge in some retail therapy, roaming many backstreets of Italy and finding hidden shopping gems. Wandering the streets of Milan and Florence, as well as the canals of Venice was no doubt a highlight for the boys, who were also treated to tours of the Baci and Ducati factories, time in the Ferrari and Lamborghini museums and Italy’s famous theme park, Gardaland. The boys were able to put their study of the Italian language to use on the tour, and expanded on their linguistic skills with three days at Italian school while in Florence. The tourists confidently ordered their meals, conversed with locals, and even tried to woo a few of the country’s young ladies. Even those not confident in the language were able to expand their vocabulary over their time in the country, with prego swiftly becoming the word of the tour. It wouldn’t be a trip to Italy without experiencing the amazing cuisine that the country has to offer, and the boys had ample opportunity to do just that. On most
days of the tour, the boys sought out their own lunch and dinner, exploring the cities and discovering small restaurants offering amazing food at unbelievable prices. Each time, the boys were thrilled to return to the group, eager to discover who had found the best deal. The tour would not have been possible without the hard work of a number of staff, both before and during the trip. Mrs Vanessa Bacich, Mr Domenic Burgio, Mrs Samantha Emslie, Mr Stephen Hunter, Mr John Rear and Mrs Silvia Romagnoli were excellent chaperones, showing the boys the incredible country and keeping them safe throughout the tour. Special thanks is also due to Ms Angela Calanni, who has spent many years fine-tuning the incredible itinerary that every single one of the boys loved, and is the reason many of the boys have fallen in love with Italy and its culture.

KIWIRRKURRA MR JASON MATTHEWS INDIGENOUS RECONCILIATION COORDINATOR
At the end of Term 2, a group of nine students and three teachers travelled to the remote community of Kiwirrkurra for the opportunity to immerse themselves in the culture of the local Aboriginal people and work within the school and community. Kiwirrkurra is described as the most remote community in Australia and is located in the Gibson Desert to the south-west of Lake McKay, approximately 1,200km east of Port Hedland and 850km west of Alice Springs. With no experience in remote communities, the students all boarded the flight in Perth and flew into Telfer with open hearts and open minds, excited about what the next week had in store for them. Their willingness to come to Kiwirrkurra with a genuine desire to learn, and to immerse themselves in the experience, allowed each student to make the most of the trip. The drive from Telfer to Kiwirrkurra took one and a half days and along the way we stopped to take in the sights, chase
camels, fuel up in Kunawarritji, and sleep out in the desert. The overnight camping was one of the highlights of the trip, setting up a campfire, cooking ham, cheese, and baked bean jaffles, and spending our first night in the swags. When we arrived at Kiwirrkurra, we discovered that most of the community was at a local football carnival, which meant that it was pretty quiet around the place. It provided the opportunity to meet the school Principal, Mr Van Poelgeest, and the staff, and we set up our camp in the Home Economics room. However, it didn’t take long for word to spread that we had arrived, with some shy but very interested students coming to say hello. Our week in Kiwirrkurra involved a number of activities and learning opportunities. The boys were spread among the three classes, primary, middle and secondary, and they worked with staff and students on curriculum based activities. This allowed them to form strong

relationships, get a real understanding of what schooling is like in a remote community, and learn some of the rich culture and dialect of the Pintupi people. As well as working in the classrooms, students volunteered to work in the community and were involved in the making and delivery of lunches for the sick and elderly, painting the Women’s Centre, and decorating drums that are to be used for a future football carnival. All these activities gave the boys an opportunity to explore community life, interact with the people of Kiwirrkurra and develop a broader understanding of what life is like in a remote community. Storytelling and sharing are key elements of Indigenous culture and we were fortunate enough to meet with local elder, Jimmy Brown, who shared some of his stories. Jimmy is a quiet and humble man, yet he takes great pride in his community and believes in sharing the Aboriginal culture to build understanding, knowledge and reconciliation. His words were inspiring for our boys. Possibly the highlight of the immersion was a trip into the desert, led by Jimmy and women elders of the community. On the trip students were shown how to look for witchetty grubs and goannas, which made up the day’s lunch, along with sausages and kangaroo tail. Most boys tried the witchetty grubs, preferring the cooked option over the raw. After lunch we were taken to a significant area and shown the story of the snake and

eagle, both important to the culture of the land. We were also treated to some rock paintings, an amazing opportunity and experience. Seeing the interaction of the Kiwirrkurra children and elders, and the joy on all their faces, it is clear that they are at their happiest when on the land. The overall experience was an amazing opportunity for our students, but it also provided an opportunity to continue the long-standing relationship we have with Kiwirrkurra. It’s important to understand that we did not visit Kiwirrkurra to help the people, rather to build relationships, learn about their culture, recognise related injustices and promote reconciliation. Help is a term used for people who are not self-sufficient and require intervention, and this is definitely not the case with the Kiwirrkurra community. A huge thank you to the staff at Kiwirrkurra for all their hard work and hospitality, and to community members who were eager to share their time and their stories. Finally, thank you to Mrs Petrina Richmond and Ms Emily Bowran; both teachers went above and beyond in the organisation of the trip and the roles they accepted while away.

MELBOURNE FOOTBALL TOUR MR ADRIAN CORREIA FOOTBALL COACH AND TOUR COORDINATOR
During the April school holidays the CBC senior football squad travelled to the home of Australian Rules Football to experience all aspects of the game, while enjoying all the attractions Melbourne has to offer. The tour started with the 37 footballers watching either Fremantle take on North Melbourne or Perth Glory face off in an elimination final against Melbourne City. Unfortunately, both West Australian sides were defeated in two very exciting games, but the boys were determined to represent their state with more success in their own games against Parade College and St Patrick’s Ballarat, as well as a tournament for the Oblate Cup with Mazenod Victoria and Mazenod WA. The boys had been training extremely hard since Week 1 of first term and played exceptionally well in all three encounters, starting with a convincing win against Parade. The boys then tackled Mazenod where they took home the Oblate Cup after each College finished with a win apiece. Our boys played with great spirit in all matches with some outstanding performances across the board. The boys were treated to several AFL tours, starting with a visit to the Melbourne Cricket Ground and National Sports Museum, followed by a tour of Essendon facilities with former Melbourne defender and now Bombers’ player
welfare manager Matthew Whelan. The tour included a talk from Essendon coach and Eagles legend, John Worsfold. The boys also listened to a presentation at Carlton from Best and Fairest, Patrick Cripps, before watching the Blues train. The following day Geelong assistant coach, Troy Selwood, took the boys through the gruelling schedule of the training squad before CBC Old Boy, Sam Menegola, spoke to the group about his journey in the AFL system. The boys then had an opportunity to watch stars Patrick Dangerfield, Joel Selwood and Jimmy Bartel train during the Cats’ closed training session. Jonathan Marsh provided the boys with access to Collingwood’s state of the art facilities where they met US recruit Mason Cox before his debut game, and were able to hold the 2010 Premiership Cup. A handful of boys were even given some of the players’ old boots, including those of dual Brownlow medallist Robert Harvey. The highlight for most boys was the visit to Fox Studios to view the filming of AFL 360, meeting several stars including Jordan Lewis, Shaun Burgoyne, David King, John Worsfold, Mark Maclure and Australian Rugby Captain Cam Smith, before being given the opportunity for a Q and A with Gerard Whateley and Mark Robinson. The visit was unbelievable, but the experience of the AFL football media didn’t stop there. The squad was also lucky to be included in the live audience of

The group also attended the Anzac Day Dawn Service at the Melbourne memorial. It was a great moment for the boys to pay their respects and to reflect on how privileged we are today.

PHILIPPINES MR CRAIG jones AND MS MARIA GARBIN TOUR COORDINATORS
Ten CBC students left Perth for the Philippines as boys, but returned 12 days later as young men whose lives were changed for the better. The teachers, College and parents are very proud of these young men. The first stop was Singapore where the group met Christian (Chan), a local from Maasin and now a nurse in Singapore. Chan was to be a valuable assistant to Mr Craig Jones and Ms Maria Garbin, a confidante to the boys and a liaison between the group, the Filipino people and staff at Edmund Rice Ministries (ERM) in Maasin. Travelling from Singapore to Cebu, the group stayed overnight and had some cultural experiences before embarking on the six-hour ferry ride to Maasin where the boys were introduced to the Christian Brothers and the ERM staff. The group paid a visit to the Special Education School for Deaf Children (SPED), where the preparation in learning to spell their names using American Sign Language was well received. SPED has students ranging from five to 33 years of age with a number of boarders from regional areas. If it was not for ERM, these students would not have been exposed to sign language and education. The whole school gathered and the boys were put into groups of two and assigned a number of deaf students to teach them some basic sign language including colours, numbers and greetings. Later on the boys showed the students how to play AFL. After a great day at SPED the boys visited the Shrine of Mama Mary, which is a statue overlooking the city said to protect Maasin City from typhoons. Accommodation for the next nine days was a four room bed and breakfast; two rooms for the teachers and the remaining two rooms for the boys. While in the Philippines to work and learn about Filipino culture,
the boys also learned about communal living and how to wash without a washing machine and clothes dryer. On visits to Ichon and Paku National High Schools, the CBC students were invited to participate in a number of traditional dances, songs and games. In return, the boys performed the Australian National Anthem and demonstrated a Filipino game they had just learned overnight. During the whole-day visits, the boys were shown around the schools; language was definitely not a barrier in sharing experiences. Taste buds were culturally enhanced and challenged with the generous meals and at Paku National High School the boys were honoured with a traditionally roasted pig which they assisted in cooking. Earlier in the immersion the boys were spoken to by the teachers and Chan about how to fully immerse oneself into the culture. The boys had commented on how friendly the people were and their smiles. It was therefore important that the boys fully participated in all activities and were not frightened of being ‘hands on’. This was never a problem and it was such a moving sight when the boys were involved in the rehabilitation programmes for people living with disabilities in Nonok Norte. The boys also became health care workers by testing the eyesight of students at the local high school and can now plough a field with a karabou (buffalo), and plant bamboo, banana and cassava. It was not all work and no play. Shopping was a popular activity and there was a 100% participation rate in the eating of Balut, a 17 day old germinated duck egg. Karaoke is a popular pastime in the Philippines and the boys enjoyed a few sessions with the locals. A number of boys also tried out the stylish haircuts on offer. A basketball match between Maasin City College (MCC) Youth Worker Students and CBC Fremantle provided entertainment for the 1,000 strong student

population. While we were thousands of kilometres away, the boys also attended Masses in Cebu and Maasin and found them very similar to those in Perth. After such a fantastic eight days of working the group ventured to Canigao Island for a day of fun. The boys explored, snorkelled in the clear waters, participated in a number of new Filipino games and shared a meal. The immersion ended with a farewell dinner held at the ERM Offices where the boys prepared a farewell statement, in English and Filipino, and each echoed the thoughts and feelings of the group. The ERM staff, Brothers and larger Filipino community had created a family and home for the boys which would become a lifetime memory to be forever cherished.

SPORT MR STEPHEN HUNTER COORDINATOR OF SPORT
Sport at CBC Fremantle involved another busy and exciting year. Our sporting teams have grown in numbers resulting in many successful competitions and carnivals. Although we didn’t win any of the major trophies, we were not far off the mark and heading in the right direction for 2017. The aim of Sport at every level is to offer students an opportunity to display their best effort, represent the College, strive for excellence and most importantly, to enjoy themselves with their friends. The ACC Lightning Carnivals were a hit again this year, with many boys displaying their talents in a variety of sports. The main focus is for the boys to have fun and less focus on elite performances. These allday events allowed every Year 7, 8 and 9 student to participate in their choice of either soccer, hockey, football or rugby in fixtures against other schools. The ACC Swimming, Athletics and Cross Country carnivals are the three biggest competitive events on our sporting calendar. All students who represented the College at ACC level trained extremely hard and produced some outstanding results, often recording personal best times and distances. We were not successful in winning any of the main ACC trophies, but our athletes gave their best efforts on the day and we are confident we will be back to regain the ‘Big Three’ in 2017. None of this would have been possible without the help and guidance from all the support staff, including teachers, parents, Old Boys and current students. I thank you for your contribution this year and look forward to another great Year in 2017.
All boys involved in Sport at CBC Fremantle are outstanding ambassadors for the College, but a special mention must go to the following students for their involvement. These boys were recognised at the Awards Evening for their commitment this year: Athletics Award – Callan Howe-Robinson Cross Country Award – Edward Astill Swimming Award – Rafael Cipriano Sports Service Award – Anthony Cammarano CBC Junior Sportsman of the Year – Craig Pittson CBC Senior Sportsman of the Year – Kennedy Sorrell

AFL FOOTBALL MR ADRIAN CORREIA FOOTBALL COACH
CBC has a rich and successful AFL history and in 2016 looked to build on its reputation of developing talented footballers. This year we ventured on another tour to Melbourne and introduced specialist football programmes in Years 8, 9 and 10 to encourage the young men at CBC to improve and prosper both on and off the football field. The future looks very bright with a talented crop of Year 7 footballers coming up through the ranks. With so much talent available, we entered an A and B side into the Dockers Shield competition this year. The B side finished fourth and the A team took out the South Division. After winning the carnival, CBC A advanced into the Grand Final carnival against La Salle, Mandurah Catholic and Emmanuel, the respective winners of the North, West and East competitions. The Year 7 boys went through undefeated, coming from behind in the last game to take home the title for the first time in three years. Once again we entered two teams in the Years 8 and 9 Schoolboys’ competition. The CBC 8/9 B side had a great season, only losing two games throughout the year and finishing third. In the finals the B side had an upset win against Canning Vale College, advancing to the Grand Final where they were defeated by a very strong Willetton team.

Unfortunately, in horrendous conditions, the boys fell heartbreakingly short by three points in a very competitive game where both sides had many opportunities to win. Comet Bay went on to win the Grand Final by 10 goals, which just made the defeat more devastating for the boys who are now keen to go one better in 2017. The Year 10 team went to the qualifying lightning carnival where the team was undefeated in three games, which qualified them for the finals of the ACC Schoolboys’ Football Cup. Winners from the South, North and Country regions met up for the Grand Final carnival. After the team defeated La Salle College and Mary Mackillop College from Bunbury, CBC and Emmanuel were undefeated at the final game. After a close and hard fought game CBC Fremantle came out victorious by 14 points and took home the trophy.
CBC 8/9 A took out the South Fremantle division for the tenth straight year, fighting off a very strong Emmanuel College in the Grand Final. They then progressed through the knock-out stages with all other WAFL district winners. After strong performances and a comprehensive win against Clontarf, the boys advanced through to the
The 1st XVIII fielded one of the most talented sides in the school’s history but struggled to get the best side on the park all at once, with a large number of injuries and many boys being unavailable due to state football commitments. Despite this, the true depth of CBC shone with some outstanding results that saw them progress to the preliminary final. Unfortunately, the boys went down by just three points to Comet Bay in a game we should have won, with inaccurate kicking proving very costly. Despite the result, I couldn’t be more impressed with the senior boys, especially the Year 12 students who have given outstanding service to the College football teams throughout their time at CBC.

With a mixture of triumph and heartbreak across all teams, CBC truly saw the highs and lows that football has to offer. The passion the boys show for their College is apparent on the football field and I look forward to seeing them improve, grow and develop in 2017.

ACC ATHLETICS CARNIVAL During Term 3 members of the Athletics squad trained once a week to gain a position on the CBC ACC Athletics team. There were some great numbers at training and many boys fighting for a spot on the team which was a great challenge for each of them. During September, CBC competed in the A Division ACC Athletics Carnival. The team, led by Nathaniel Bond-Williams (Year 11) and Nicholas Funga (Year 12), were well prepared for the competition, resulting in great individual results. The sportsmanship showed on the day to their team mates and other schools is to be commended. After all the results were tallied, CBC finished second in all categories, Senior Boys, Junior Boys and Overall Boys, just 23 points behind the winner. This is a great result for all the hard work, commitment and effort the boys displayed during the term. Although the whole squad worked hard on the day to achieve team success, there were some exceptional individual performances from athletes who broke records and placed in Champion Boy rankings. The opportunity for these boys to represent their College and be prepared for competition would not have been possible without the dedication and hard work of the staff and coaches. I would like to acknowledge Mr John Black, Mr Brent Butcher, Miss Lana DePalma, Mr Daniel Kennedy, Mr Justin Leech, Mrs Lisa Parkinson, Mr Zachary Preston and Mrs Silvia Romagnoli. We were fortunate to receive specialist training from coaches Mr David Cecchi, Mr Julian Konle, Mr James McCooey, Mr Tony Natale and Mr Grant Szalek; their knowledge and commitment were invaluable in the lead up to the carnival.

BASKETBALL MR BRENT BUTCHER BASKETBALL COACH
Basketball teams at the College experienced another successful year with strong performances and excellent sportsmanship. In first term, the senior teams were very competitive at the carnival in Rockingham with the A team on top in the final before progressing to the knock-out competition against other regional winners. The boys played consistent basketball, led by Hugo Salvage and with strong performances by all members of the team. The carnival winner was Mazenod College, which was too strong for a valiant CBC team in the quarter finals. CBC was represented by two teams in the annual Year 10 competition at All Saints College with great results. CBC A finished the day undefeated, winning the Grand Final against St Norbert College. CBC B made it through to the finals but were a little undersized against their brothers in the A team. CBC B finished a great day coming fourth overall.
Junior basketball is thriving at CBC with more than 90 boys trying out for a place on a team. With such enthusiasm, three teams were nominated for this year’s carnival. The A team won the competition in convincing style, and all three teams played with enthusiasm, displaying qualities of sportsmanship and resilience. Progressing to the state finals, CBC was confronted with extremely strong competition with specialist basketball schools making up most of the opposition. The boys were committed and finished fourth, which was a great effort. Thank you to Mr Zachary Preston and Mrs Lisa Parkinson who gave up their time to coach and mentor their respective teams this year.

CRICKET MR zachary preston cricket coach
CBC Cricket in 2016 produced some pleasing, albeit mixed, results for 1st XI and junior teams but the students played every game in the fashion of true gentlemen. The 1st XI team commenced the defence of the Graeme Wood Shield with a game against Corpus Christi with Kennedy Sorrell as Captain and six players receiving their baggy green for their debut with the top team. The round robin phase started with a win, followed by a victory over Willetton Senior High. Game three was a special event with Emmanuel College hosting CBC Fremantle in a Pink Stumps fundraiser to support the McGrath Foundation. CBC finished the round robin with a win, resulting in the team moving into the knockout phase of the competition. The 1st XI was well-prepared but went down to Mandurah Catholic College in a tight game to end their season. The Year 7/8 T20 Blast team had exciting success at the South West Cricket Carnival which put them into the state final. It was a fantastic competition and the boys lost by only five runs to come second in the state. CBC cricket looks to have a very bright future with most of the 1st XI for 2016 staying together for 2017 and some promising juniors showing great enthusiasm for the sport and the chance to represent their College.

ACC CROSS COUNTRY The 2016 Cross Country season started with great enthusiasm with some stand out individual performances. Led strongly by the senior boys and inspired by the enthusiasm from the large brigade of lower school students, the squad was keen to give everything they had. Our first event was the State All Schools competition at McGillivray Oval. Whilst the team didn’t perform as well as we hoped, there were some outstanding individual achievements on the day. Edward Astill and Moss Ridge (both Year 7) were selected into the state Cross Country team due to their exceptional performances. The All Schools event was great preparation for our group and proved to be excellent motivation for the ACC Cross Country. The team arrived early at Alderbury Reserve and it was clear the boys were determined to accomplish their best. The day couldn’t have started any better with Moss Ridge and Edward Astill finishing first and second respectively in
the first race. This sublime result was enough to inspire the boys for the rest of the day. The squad tried to consolidate this performance and it was outstanding to see the level of support offered to every team mate. The race to win the shield was very tight and it came down to the Open Boys’ race where Co-Captain Nicholas Funga (Year 12) was participating in his last Cross Country event for the school. Together with Nathan Scott (Year 11), Nicholas encapsulated the spirit of the team with a strong finish in the last event of the day. Tensions were high prior to finding out the results and while it was disappointing to just miss out on winning the Boys’ Shield, it was a fantastic overall team effort and an excellent result to finish second. It was magnificent to witness the leadership and camaraderie displayed throughout the season. Hopefully, in 2017 we can build upon what we accomplished this year and continue to have a strong level of commitment from all members of the team. A huge thank you to Miss Tognolini and Miss Papas for their tireless efforts throughout the season. It was a successful Cross Country season and I look forward to working with the team again in 2017.

HOCKEY Ms shayni nelson hockey COACH
The highlight of each season for the College Hockey team is the annual ACC Carnival. This year, the odds were stacked against our team from the beginning – no Harry Golding (Year 11) and Riley Faulds (Year 12) on limited time – but we managed to beat our nemesis JTC in the semi-final after progressing through the round stage. The semi was more stressful than the exam period for the boys and we eventually won through to the Grand Final after two lots of sudden death extra time and a massive 22 penalty strokes (12 being sudden death). The quality of shooting was outstanding for this age group. The ACC then generously provided a 10 minute break before the boys played Newman College in the final. This game also went into sudden death extra time. We dominated possession for most of the game but a short break in concentration allowed them to score in the first period of golden goal and take home the trophy. Disappointment again for our boys, particularly the Year 12 players who have been in the team since they were babies. The team’s grit and sportsmanship was praised by the ACC and a quiet word on the side confirmed to our camp that we would have been even more competitive but but we had just run out of legs. ROSS MEADOW HOCKEY TOURNAMENT Thanks to CBC’s three and zip start to the day, the boys progressed to the pool stage of the competition. They were now up against the accomplished Como Swans, and quickly asserted their dominance with an early goal from

Indy Greget O’Dea (Year 9). The rest of the game became something of an arm wrestle, as both teams struggled to find the scoreboard. Although they did not score again, the boys managed to remain composed and hold onto the win. The significant effort that they had produced now saw them enter the Grand Final against the Como A team. The boys held on against very strong opposition advances, thanks to a number of fantastic tackles from players like Daniel Page (Year 9) and Jonas Brown (Year 8). The game ended nil all, and this meant that it was now time for penalty one-on-ones. Zacharie Boglio (Year 8), Daniel Page, Bradley ‘Danger’ Dowie (Year 9), Daniel ‘Magic’ Moulin (Year 8), and Jonas Brown all showed some incredible skill against the Como goalkeeper, and coupled with the brilliant efforts of CBC goalkeeper Ethan Contera (Year 9), they helped us get through the first round of penalty one-on-ones with a three all draw. It then went on to sudden death, which we unfortunately lost. Although we did not manage to come away with the Grand Final win, the day still ended on a positive note. Zacharie ‘Big Deal’ Boglio lived up to his nickname and was presented with the player of the tournament medal, based on the umpire votes throughout the day. This is an incredible achievement, given that he was playing against a vast number of students that were older than him. The boys displayed a wonderful attitude throughout the day, and their effort was second to none. All those involved are congratulated for their hard work.

RUGBY MR adryan winnan rugby coordinator This year the CBC Rugby Development Programme was initiated, providing boys with specialist coaching and mentoring. The programme was a clear success and led to an increase in both player participation and team performances. The College fielded a team in each Year group from Years 7 through to 12 with close to 130 boys proudly wearing the CBC Rugby shirt. On the field there were some memorable team performances, including the 1st XV displaying an outstanding defensive effort to come agonisingly close against rugby specialist school Thornlie (32-33). Our Year 8 boys provided arguably the highlight of the season, when they were victorious against a determined Kennedy Baptist College side (52-0) to win the McNamee Cup. Impressively, this was our Year 8’s first game of rugby for CBC and, for the majority of the boys, their first game of rugby ever. The annual Rugby breakfast was held at Tompkins On Swan, where the CBC community celebrated our boys’ achievements. There were 20 awards presented, where the best attacker, best defender, most improved and the best sportsman from each year were acknowledged. The Head of Player Development from Western Force was in attendance and spoke of the club’s positive relationship with CBC and highlighted future opportunities for 2017. As always, the Rugby players of CBC have positively represented themselves, their team mates and the College with remarkable courage and humility. These attributes combined with the boys’ willingness to learn has provided a solid foundation for further improvement and success in 2017.

SOCCER dr aidan holohan junior soccer a coach Ms Shoshanna Beins Junior soccer b coach Mr jeremy peris intermediate soccer a coach mr john hortense intermediate soccer B coach Mr Neil Alweyn senior soccer coach
For many Soccer enthusiasts at CBC, 2016 will be remembered as a very successful year. We had many new coaches, some amazing talent throughout the year groups and teams making it through to the finals. JUNIOR A The boys had a great season. They were undefeated in the group stage, winning most of their games by significant margins. As the season progressed the boys settled into a pattern of play which was characterised by endeavour, hard tackling and good ball movement. It was very entertaining football. Their defensive play also improved significantly during the season. In the knockout stage we had a comfortable win against Lynwood SHS B in the first round. We then played an epic game against John Curtin B. Despite being 0-3 down at half time, the boys showed a lot of character and determination and came back to win 4-3. In the quarter finals we came up against John Curtin A. Despite our endeavour, our defensive play was poor and and we lost by a considerable margin. In the Shield Cup the team made amends for the previous loss by playing an outstanding game against Lynwood SHS A to win 1-0 and progress to the play-off for third place. Our opponent was Morley SHS and the game was very physical. Despite taking an early lead, towards the end of the second half we were 1-3 down. The boys battled bravely but could only narrow the margin by a goal when the final whistle blew. Overall, it’s been a great season and the boys were outstanding.
JUNIOR B The Junior B Soccer team, consisting of Year 7 and 8 students, had a tough competition facing up to some of the best young players in the state. There was a strong core group, who showed a fantastic amount of leadership capacity and teamwork, and the boys are excited about the prospects for the season next year. INTERMEDIATE BOYS The intermediate sides continued to develop this year and proved to be strong opposition for any team they faced. Many players filled in for both sides at various times due to injury and availability and adapted well to each side’s exciting style of play. Many of the Year 10 students provided inspirational leadership for the younger players and lifted the teams to some very memorable matches. Looking ahead, the group of Year 10s will add to the success of the senior sides and the confident Year 9s are already showing early leadership potential for next year. Well done lads! The boys’ commitment both on and off the pitch was very impressive. Whether they had to train in rainy conditions or put the nets up, the lads all contributed with enthusiasm. Despite a loss against John Curtin, the Intermediate B team played some sterling soccer to manage a win and nearly another in a thriller against the A team. All of the boys gave a good account of themselves throughout the whole competition.

SENIOR BOYS A fine group of young men represented CBC in the Senior Boys Champion School Soccer competition. It was a very successful year, where the team made a deep run into this prestigious competition. During Term 2, the boys finished the group stage of the competition undefeated by accounting for Lakelands SHS 10-1, Emmanuel 1-0, Melville SHS 4-1, Leeming SHS 3-0 and Seton 3-1. In the knockout finals we defeated Canning Vale College in the first round (6-1), and then came up against Corpus Christi. After a tense game, the score after 90 minutes was 2-2. A penalty shoot-out followed and CBC held their nerve to win the game. We were then drawn against John Curtin College in the quarter finals. We had four of our starting XI unavailable but the boys played an exceptional first half, going to the break 1-0 up. Unfortunately, in the second half, the opposition scored three goals and came away winners. Due to our strong results, we qualified for the plate semi-final of the competition, but lost the game 2-1. Thank you to Miss Maria Garbin, our team manager, and also to Captain Harry Bird, who displayed an outstanding commitment to his school.

SURFING Mr jason matthews surfing COACH
Surfing at CBC Fremantle is building up a solid tradition of excellence and enthusiasm. For the first time ever, the College won the Metro Zone Surfing Championship in August with a spectacular performance from all of the squad in near perfect conditions at Trigg Beach. Year 11 surfing legends, Tom Corrie and Alexander McGuffin, claimed first place in the Senior Boys’ Surfing division, and Finn Hussey and Noah Masters from Year 8 were a formidable force in the Junior Boys’ Surfing, coming in top position after a tremendous session on the waves. William Green and Jack Owen came third in the Junior Boys’ Surfing, which bodes well for the future of surfing at CBC. Junior Boys’ Bodyboarding first position went to Nicholas Dart and Jonathan Kay, and Jake Anderson and Liam Kennedy were close behind them in second place.
TOP LEFT Alexander McGuffin MIDDLE Jonathan Kay RIGHT Finn Hussey
The top performers went on to represent CBC at the State championships later the same month where traditional surfing powerhouse school Margaret River High School took out the first position in Junior and Senior Boys’ Surfing. BEN FOLEY AWARD This year’s winner of the Ben Foley Award was Samuel Preston (Year 11), whose good humour and helpfulness was an inspiration to the squad. The special perpetual trophy is named after Mr Ben Foley, who was a strong and positive influence on students at the College. The award is presented to a member of the surf team who displays the qualities that align with Mr Foley’s teachings and to the attributes of the CBC gentleman.

SWIMMING mr stephen hunter coordinator of sport
CBC Swimming is currently undergoing somewhat of a “rebuilding phase”. The closure of the Fremantle Aquatic Centre two or so years ago saw a drop in the number of squad swimmers training with the CBC squad. Thankfully, this is now behind us and some of our younger swimmers are improving dramatically with some hard work in the pool. INTER-HOUSE CARNIVAL After six years of Samson House dominating the annual House Swimming Carnival, Rice House overthrew the boys in blue and took home the coveted shield at Challenge Stadium. A fast-changing scoreboard kept everyone guessing until the final results were revealed, with Morgan House’s massive lead making them hot favourites early in the day. However, the relays sealed the final score, and strong performances from Champion Boy Rafael Cipriano – who continues to beat his own records – helped to push Rice House into first position at the end of the day.

2016 A DIVISION ACC SWIMMING CARNIVAL The opportunity for these boys to represent their College and be prepared for competition would not be possible without the dedication and hard work of the staff and coaches. Mr John Rear, Mr Jason Matthews and Mr Garry Hart ran a tight training ship, with a commitment to training despite early mornings and cold weather that was greatly appreciated by the boys. With a strong showing of Year 6 swimmers in Term 4, we look forward to going one better next year. This event in 2016 clashed with the National Junior Water Polo Championships which depleted our swimming stocks somewhat. The replacement swimmers stood up and performed exceptionally well. The improvement in our junior boys will continue with their hard work and we should see CBC challenge for the title next year.

HERBERT EDWARDS CUP Early in Term 1 the call was put out to the Year 7 to 9 students for keen tennis players and we received a lot of interest. After five weeks of training, the day of the tournament finally arrived, and we had a celebrity bus driver with Mr Barry Tognolini coming in from long service leave especially to drive the bus and watch us play tennis. The teams on the day came up against some really competitive opponents across the divisions. The boys all played with great sportsmanship and came away from the day having left everything on the court and having learnt a lot about the game. I would like to say a massive thank you to Mr and Miss Tognolini as the boys would not have been able to compete without the help they provided throughout the training sessions and on the day.

ANNUAL CBC COMPETITION It was the fifth year for the College’s annual competition, which took place on a blustery day at the Fremantle Tennis Court. In the Year 7/8 challenge, Alexander Kendrick defeated fellow Year 7 Lachlan Biagioni in one semi-final, and Jonas Brown defeated Kai Thomas (both Year 8) in the other. In the final Jonas won a tight match against Alexander, 21 points to 19 to claim his first CBC title. In the Year 9/10 competition, last year’s 7/8 champion Adam Correia (Year 9) defeated Jake Grbavac (Year 9) in one semi-final and had to then play defending champion Riley Rees-Turner (Year 10) who received a bye into the final. It was a hard hitting game but Riley always stayed a few points ahead and eventually triumphed 21 points to 17. It was Riley’s fourth win in the event.

SLAZENGER CUP & MURSELL SHIELD CBC had three teams competing in two groups of five teams each at Robertson Park, with four qualifying spots. It was an exciting competition and CBC ended up with three of the four qualifying spots! CBC A team didn’t lose a game, and CBC B was likewise undefeated. CBC C team lost one game, which was to CBC B as they were in the same group. CBC A then beat CBC B team in the quarter-final of the Slazenger Cup, and qualified for the semi-final in the event, a first for the College. The boys played extremely well against quality competition, and were only defeated by four matches to two, a fantastic effort. CBC C team also played strong and confident tennis, losing the quarter final of the second tier Mursell Shield competition.

CBC A team were unbeaten on the day, winning the Grand Final by 13 goals. CBC B side were narrowly beaten to finish third, and CBC C team finished in equal at seventh position. The carnival showcased some amazing talent in the water and it was a great competition for the boys to be involved in.

SYMBOLS OF OUR JOURNEY harry bird year 12 graduate When I was asked to think of a symbol that represented my time at CBC Fremantle, many, many came to mind. In making my decision, I was reminded that time and time again the years we spend at the College are referred to as a journey. It is appropriate then that my symbol is a compass … an almost essential tool for journeying success. A compass is used by many travellers so they can be guided to their destination and I feel as though through my time at CBC I have been guided by various people to becoming the person standing here in front of you. When I was first at CBC I was a small Year 7 and tried to keep to myself with a few good friends. But come Year 8 and 9 I felt as though to continue going to CBC, I had to be someone else to be able to fit in. I started becoming lazy with homework and a nuisance in class as many of my Years 8 and 9 teachers could probably tell you. I had people I knew outside of school who weren’t good company and most teachers and students knew this. I thought being friends with these people may make me ‘cooler’ or more popular but instead people saw a different me developing. It was not the ‘me’ my parents envisaged when they chose this school for my development, and in hindsight, not the ‘me’ I now want for myself. While I was still friends with these people, many teachers would talk to me and try to subtly tell me that I was going down the wrong path, and that I should choose friends wisely. I knew what they were trying to say to me but I often swept it under the rug and didn’t think too much about it. One conversation with a teacher I remember very distinctly; he was one of the teachers who I annoyed in Year 9 or 10. He took me out of Mentor class and had a conversation with me in the amphitheatre. He told me about how when he was younger he had friends who made choices which were wrong but he chose to go a different way. He had opened up to me. This was one of those teachers who had tried to guide me to be a better person. He had taken time out of his day to try to make sure I didn’t make a decision I would regret.
CBC 2016

At the time I thought nothing of it but there is a reason I remember that day. In Year 9 my Rite Journey teacher taught me many things about taking responsibility and becoming a man. In those lessons I wasn’t the best behaved. Only now can I see that he was a part of that CBC compass trying to guide me to the right place in life. Years on from those days and I feel I am a different person. Mid-way through my CBC life I made a decision to stop seeing certain people outside of school, and then began to really try my hardest academically. Through Year 12 I also tried my very hardest and only recently realised that I didn’t just make those decisions to work hard or chose better friends by myself. At the time I may not have been listening to teachers or my parents telling me off, but now I realise that I am who I am today because people at this school went out of their way in their attempt to guide me to be a better person. To that teacher who took me out of class, I would like to say thank you. Thank you for caring for me, that you went out of your way to help me live the best life I could. When my Maths teacher, Mr Jones, told me this year that I used to be a ratbag in Year 8, how he is now proud to have me in his Year 12 class and that he never thought I would have grown up that much, I felt like I had made the right choice to do my best and I felt that the CBC compass had me pointing in the right direction. I will truly miss coming to this school, I will miss the students, teachers and the way that so many people cared for me and guided me to be a better person. I am a person who doesn’t like change that much, so leaving school after 12 years is going to be hard to adapt to; I can only hope my family, my current friends and future friends will be the compass for me in coming years to help me grow and continue to excel in what I do.

SYMBOLS OF OUR JOURNEY keane bourke year 12 graduate
Words have a great deal of power. They can carry the greatest joy we’ll ever know, communicate wonders beyond belief, or inspire actions that change the course of history. When you think about the power of communication, it’s usually about how others speak to us, or to the world. It’s easy to remember how a mate’s joke can leave you laughing for hours, or how a quote from Martin Luther King or Nelson Mandela can inspire you, but tonight words are going to have a different kind of power. Tonight, we’re all going to receive a letter written by ourselves, to ourselves. We’ve all changed a lot over the three years since we sat in that tent in Bindoon, but those words remain our own. That letter, written in that tent in Bindoon in 2013, is my symbol of my journey at CBC. I haven’t seen it since I wrote it, and honestly, I don’t really even know exactly what I wrote, but somehow it feels like those words never left my mind. It’s always been with me, in the back of my head, spurring me on when things are getting tough, challenging me to do what is right, not what is easy. The promises I made to myself in that tent have guided me through the past three years, and helped make me into the man I am today. Like many of the boys here tonight, my biggest competitor has always been myself. Sure, it’s nice to get a better mark than your mate in a test, or smash him in a game of footy, but it never really means much unless you’ve one-upped yourself. The healthiest competition is when you challenge and beat yourself. The concept of personal excellence that we have heard on many, many occasions over our time at the College is underpinned by continual improvement. That same mindset is probably why that letter has been
so powerful. I made some promises to myself in that letter that I have had three years to keep, or that I can judge my success by. They aren’t promises that anyone else can judge me on, and they probably won’t mean much to anyone else, but they’ll mean something to me – my biggest competitor. Later tonight, when we’re all reunited with our letters, written by much shorter, immature, and moody versions of ourselves, I hope we can all look back with a sense of pride. I hope we can all be proud of becoming the man we aspired to be just three short years ago, and remember fondly the part of our journey that reaches its end tonight. That journey, which began in this gym only six years ago seems to have gone by in the blink of an eye, and it feels like yesterday we were getting on a bus for the long ride out to Bindoon, but I hope that tonight, we can all appreciate just how far we’ve come. Knowing what kind of person you want to be and having a plan about potential behaviour is a critical skill for young people in today’s world. CBC Fremantle has provided a perspective and understanding of behaviour that is counter-cultural, one that focusses on values, personal excellence, accountability, service and relationships. The purpose of my letter was to provide focus for Years 10, 11 and 12, and when you read your letters, you will be able to reflect on your success. The purpose of a CBC education is to become a man whose main goal in life is to bring joy to others. My symbol reminds me of that, and I hope over the course of my life I will write many more letters to myself, literally and figuratively, that reinforce the messages of my education at this place, and that as a result I continue to exhibit all the qualities of a CBC gentleman.

“The formal dancing sets showed off the value of the preparatory lessons with the whole cohort looking very comfortable with their fancy footwork and turns.”
SENIOR BALL Showcasing excellent social etiquette, good table manners and smooth dance moves, the Class of 2016 enjoyed the entertainment highlight of their final year at the College Senior Ball. The Southern Cross Gala Ballroom at the Esplanade Hotel Fremantle by Rydges looked magical with white cherry blossom table displays dotted with tiny blue butterflies as the young ladies and gentlemen mingled on arrival before being seated for a buffet dinner. The formal dancing sets showed off the value of the preparatory lessons with the whole cohort looking very comfortable with their fancy footwork and turns. Mermaid silhouettes were popular with the girls, with slinky fishtail frocks and curling locks shining under the coloured lights. The young men showed off their style in navy or black suits, with Paul JardineClarke dressed to thrill in a white James Bond tux, Riley Faulds sporting blue velvet and Emmanuel Terzoudis-Lumsden favouring a Blackwatch kilt complete with sporran. Reece Jaschke took the fashion to another level with top hat and tails, and an elegant ruby vest to match his partner’s red gown.
