sports. It seems that the spirit and talent of our sports teams is widely recognised. In previous newsletters I have regularly commented about the importance of a balanced and holistic education and it is appropriate to ask where sport stands in the priorities of the school and why significant emphasis is placed upon it. In addition to the obvious reasons surrounding the benefits of physical activity and good health, there are two others which I consider most pertinent. The first pertains to the fact that research continually asserts that boys learn best when they identify strongly with their school and develop a sense of belonging. There is little doubt that involvement in sport engenders a sense of spirit and identity. This spirit then leads to increased enjoyment of the overall school experience and a heightened sense of pride in the College. The positive energy that is thus generated can then be channelled into other dimensions of the school such as the faith formation, academic or cultural programmes. The second significant reason for encouraging sporting involvement concerns some of the very positive attributes that we wish all of the boys at CBC to acquire. Leadership, discipline and teamwork are qualities which can be taught in a number of settings but are Bill Orr (Year 8) receiving the Br John Murray medal for Year 8/9 Soccer from Fr John Sherman

Aglio, Olio, Pepperoncino from Domenic Burgio I have often said to my family and friends that this would be my preferred last meal. They usually react with a smile… I’m not sure whether it’s because they are thinking of the meal, or they are imagining the circumstances in which I may be eating it. It is so simple to prepare, and the flavours have nowhere to hide. I sometimes add chopped cherry Roma tomatoes and basil, half in the saute, and half wilted through after draining the pasta. Ingredients Serves 2 200-300g spaghetti (no 5) 4 or more (depending on your garlic tolerance and absorption!) garlic cloves, crushed 100ml extra virgin olive oil 2 red chillies chopped (i like them extra hot, but suit your own palate) Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste Method 1. In a frying pan over low heat, sauté the garlic in the olive oil until golden
but not browned. Add half the chillies.
2. Cook the spaghetti (al dente) according to packet instructions. 3. Drain the spaghetti and add the olive oil, sautéed garlic and chilli.
Toss so that the spaghetti is coated in the olive oil mixture and everything
is well combined. Add the other half of the chilli for some ‘crunch’, and grind
sea salt and cracked pepper to taste. Serve immediately and enjoy!
