From the Principal A Place for the ‘Stranger’ I have referred regularly in this Newsletter and on other occasions to the central function that our Journey Document has assumed in directing activity and thinking at the College in recent years. It’s a clear and unequivocal statement of the five characteristics we aspire to engender in CBC Fremantle

Tomorrow’s gentleman recognises and values the ‘other’ in his life

Page 2 | CBC Fremantle Newsletter | Week 7 Term 3

For many of us, it is possible to live a relatively unchallenged lifestyle. By adopting popular beliefs and dominant cultural values, by being selective about the media with which we engage and by surrounding ourselves with like-minded people we can avoid addressing the difficult questions which are posed by the existence of the ‘other’. While this may be appealing in some superficial way, it is not the position of comfort and self-assuredness to which our Christian faith calls us. As I stated with reference to our fence display earlier this year protesting the High Court decision to allow

Year 7 football win Earlier this term CBC competed in the annual Year 7 Dockers Shield football carnival. Due to the enormous amount of talent amongst the group, we entered the competition with two teams - an A and B side.

The teams produced some outstanding performances. CBC A finished the day undefeated in top position with CBC B also doing very well by finishing fifth.

After winning the carnival, CBC advanced to the Grand Final, playing against La Salle, Mandurah Catholic and Emmanuel who are the respective winners of the North, South West and South East competition.

CBC had a great start to the day with a victory against Mandurah and followed it up with a win against Emmanuel. The final game was against La Salle, who had also breezed through their first two games with convincing wins. This meant the winner of the game would take home the shield.

The boys were very excited and went into the game with a lot of confidence. La Salle controlled the first half of football and went into half time with a 10 point lead. CBC A team was not playing the footy they had played all through the competition and needed to lift their game, and that is exactly what they did. The boys dominated the second half, playing great team football to secure a 13 point win. It was an excellent effort and it was great to see the passion and dedication all the boys showed for their College. The football future at CBC looks to be very bright.

Black Dog on a Lead On Sunday 16 October join the Black Dog on a Lead walk, raising money for Headspace while getting people to talk openly about depression or ‘the black dog’ within our community.

Almost half (45.5%) of the total population experience a mental health disorder at some point in their life and although you may be one of the lucky ones, there is a good chance that someone you LOVE, is or will be effected.

In Australia, eight lives are lost every day as a result of suicide and it is the number one cause of deaths for Australians aged 15 to 44.

Indigenous communities are up to eight times more likely to take their own life than non-Indigenous Australians and we currently have the highest rate of suicide in the world for young Indigenous males.

We are ALL in this together and no one should have to suffer in silence.

To register for the walk click the link www.mycause.com.au/events/blackdogonalead.

Alternately if you’d like to avoid the walking bit and still support Headspace you can donate by sponsoring Mrs Petrina Brewer at the following link: www.mycause.com.au/page/134220/black-dog-on-a-lead-petrina-richmond.

A day in the life of a Murdoch University student In case you didn’t see it in Murdoch’s most recent newsletter, I’d just like to let you know that registrations for Murdoch’s A Day in the Life of a University Student for Year 9 and 10 students are now open!

This is a fantastic day on 6 October, designed to highlight everything that Murdoch has to offer – including activities, tours of our facilities, and various classes run in different disciplines. All students need to do is register on the link: www.experience.murdoch.edu.au/event/a-day-in-the-life-of-a-murdoch-university-student-2/
