Edmund Rice Education Australia, now in its seventh year, continues to celebrate the heritage, legacy and mission passed on to us by the Christian Brothers in our 50 schools throughout Australia. Catholic schools in the Edmund Rice tradition are challenged and privileged to embrace a common Charter and the Four Touchstones or markers of our fidelity to a common mission: Liberating Education, Gospel Spirituality, Inclusive Community and, Justice and Spirituality. We applaud your community and its wonderful efforts to guide and educate our young people according to the priorities of our Gospel and common Charter. We are thrilled that you continue to offer the extraordinary opportunities to our young people that are necessary for them to grow and flourish as human beings committed to the making of a better world. Never underestimate the contribution of your school community to the future and continue to celebrate your great achievements. You do your best to embody authentic Christian community with the highs and lows that we experience in our humanity. Always be mindful that our Gospel calls us to be people of hope. Our hope is in the future, a future created by an emerging generation educated and formed according to our vision for a just world where all should have the opportunity for the fullness of life. It is with a deep sense of gratitude and thanks that we congratulate you on another year of great commitment and effort towards the best of what our vision inspires us to be. In my conversations with the Christian Brothers around Australia they consistently asked me to thank you for the way in which our schools are continuing the best of their tradition.Well done! My best wishes and deepest thanks to all. Dr Wayne Tinsey - Executive Director Edmund Rice Education Australia

Principal’s Report The College enrolment for 2014 was 1581 students. Our initial intent with enrolments was to increase by one extra stream for 2014, but pressure of Year 7 enrolments has led to the decision to enrol 11 classes or approximately 300 Year 7 students, on an annual, ongoing basis. The number of Catholic boys in our feeder Catholic primary schools should continue to justify that level of enrolment. Our VCE results for the year were as follows: 7.7% of students achieved an Australian Tertiary Admission Rank in excess of 90 and the Dux of the College was Alex Lukacz with an ATAR score of 99. This year was the first operational year of our Joseph Innovation Trade Training Centre and I am pleased to report that students and staff have enjoyed the new facility and its equipment. Student numbers enrolled for next year, especially in the area of building and construction, will ensure the new facility will continue to be well utilized. Another first this year, was our commencement at the Westcourt campus. It was a rush to get everything in place for the start of the year. The formal opening was held on the feast of St Joseph and included a strong Irish flavour. The Most Reverend Bishop Long blessed the facility and those in attendance were treated to Celtic song, dance and hospitality. It is my hope that as a consequence of their time at Westcourt, our Year 9 students will come to a deeper understanding of the richness and the legacy of our Irish founder and his generous response to God’s call. We know that Edmund restored the human dignity of poor boys in Waterford by educating, clothing and feeding them and that Irish nationalism, evident in culture, dance, sport and language, assisted him in achieving that outcome. More important than any of those things however, was his commitment to evangelising, so that those under his care experienced what St John describes as, having life and having it to the full. The purpose of Catholic education has not changed over time. It has been a delight for me to travel to Westcourt frequently Westcourt Opening throughout the year. It is evident the students and staff enjoy the refurbished facilities. The benefits of the program were endorsed on days such as Anzac Day and during the Westcourt Expo, held on Thursday 26 June. It was with great sadness that I informed our community that former student

All Shook Up

and 2013 Graduate, Brennan Houghton’s courageous battle with cancer ended earlier this year. Brennan was diagnosed in Year 7 and led a short but inspirational life. The Educational Support staff nurtured and loved Brennan for the six years he was part of our school and his passing was difficult for all who were privileged to know him. May he rest in peace. Our student leaders enjoyed an outstanding and very busy year. Their leadership on carnival days and Edmund Rice Day was much appreciated by the entire student body. The benefits of committed student leaders impacts on the quality of student culture throughout the College and this was very evident in the planning and implementation of the Triumph Music Festival. The day was hosted once again by St Joseph’s and we were blessed with perfect weather and exemplary student behaviour from all four Catholic secondary colleges. For several years now, the College has been working to educate our students in the area of sustainability. A number of initiatives to save energy have been implemented, rubbish bins have been labelled to encourage recycling and some drinking troughs have been replaced with planter box gardens. The health of the performing and creative arts was once again evident in the College production “All Shook Up,” held at the playhouse theatre at the Geelong Performing Arts Centre. Inspired by and featuring the songs of Elvis Presley, the show was described by local critic Colin Mockett as follows: From the unmistakable first chord of “jailhouse rock” to the all on stage big finale “burning love”, the sixty-four strong cast, provided a night of refreshing rocking happy out and out fun….and though this was a school production, cast from drama and music students from (the all- boys) St Joseph’s College with some excellent imports from the (all-girl) Sacred Heart and Clonard Colleges, this show’s presentation, production values ,style-and its overall gloss-would stand easily alongside Geelong’s senior companies. Similar polish and talent was also evident at the Associated Catholic Colleges “Accent On Music” concert at Hamer Hall in Melbourne, on 17 September. St Joseph’s was well represented with David Gallaher conducting our senior band and John Shawcross conducting the ACC combined stage band, which included special guest James Morrison. This year the College foundation,“Upstart Entrepreneurial Challenge” was extended to include other independent and government schools. Aimed at building an entrepreneurial culture and fostering strong relationships

Principal’s Report between students, educators and industry, our foundation is to be congratulated for an outstanding local initiative. I am pleased that the ongoing work of staff member Mrs Leah Irving our Victorian Certificate of Applied Learning Coordinator was formally recognized with Minister of Education, Mr Martin Dixon presenting her with the VCAL achievement award for integrated programs, at a ceremony held at Federation Square. The award was due to Leah’s work in organizing the 2013 “Girl’s Night In” which was judged the best integrated program in Victoria. The St Joseph’s commitment to living out the gospel was evident in the range of community service events, commitments and fundraisers. Staff, students and parents have been active across our region as well as on a global level. Six of our teaching staff were involved in an immersion experience to Uganda during the July school holidays.The purpose of the trip was to provide in-service opportunities for Ugandan teachers in the Mannya parish, in co-operation with the St Bernard’s Parish in Belmont and the Cotton On Foundation.There are so many varied social justice initiatives taking place which provide all members of our community with an opportunity to be involved. The level of involvement is extraordinary and appropriate for a Catholic school in the tradition of Edmund Rice. I am grateful for the support provided by our many St Joseph’s College associated groups. Our Board led by Brett Harman, Chairperson, and his Executive, Peter Woodruff and Mark Nicholls has had another busy year. At the start of the year we welcomed five new Board Members and for the first time their EREA Board induction was conducted here at our College. Our Board Chairperson’s Virtus report, displays individual photos of our Board. With a school of our size there are an extraordinary number of issues, planning, policies and procedures to discuss. This year has been extremely busy and we have managed to have different groups throughout the College make presentations to our Board outlining their programs. Our Annual Board Seminar, held in August was another important event on our Board calendar. I thank all our Board for their commitment, integrity and expertise shared throughout 2014. I want to commend Board Member Peter Madden who is retiring this year after 11 years on our Board. Peter has also been President of our Old Collegians Association for 38 years spanning from 1985 to 2013 and has been a wonderful support to me throughout. St Joseph’s has been an integral part of Peter’s life and we are extremely grateful

for all he has done for us and shared with us over all these years. To his wife Maree we extend our sincere thanks for all you have done to support Peter in his significant roles here at the College. We wish Peter, Maree and their family much peace, happiness and fulfilment for the years ahead. No doubt Peter will always feel welcome at St Joseph’s. I thank our Associations and Committees - Finance and Planning Committee, Foundation Committee, Old Collegians Association, Parents & Friends Association, Josephines Group, Men’s Association, Care Group and all parents and families who have been involved in any way at St Joseph’s College in 2014. We are privileged to have this great level of parental support throughout our College. To this end I acknowledge our outgoing Development Manager, David Formosa, who after six years, left in October to take up a similar role at Our Lady of the Sacred Heart College, Bentleigh. David has been outstanding in working with all these different parent groups, organising functions and overseeing each activity and supporting all along the way. We say farewell and a huge thank you to David for his hard work and commitment to everything St Joseph’s. We thank Deb his wife and their boys for supporting him in his endeavours here. To David and his team, we say a huge thank you for your high standards, promotional expertise and your professionalism throughout 2014. We welcomed Tri-UMPH our new Development Manager, Kristen Gleeson, Festival to our team in October and we look forward to working with him to continue and enhance all the great work that is being done at St Joseph’s College. I need to thank our College Management Team, Paul Clohesy and Claire Brown - Deputy Principals, Michelle Brodrick - Director of Curriculum, Jo Hart – Director of Identity and Terry Fowler – Business Manager for their level of commitment to all that is St Joseph’s, our students, staff, families and wider community. I value greatly your work ethic and support in all that we do. Playing with James Morrison at ACC To staff who are leaving or who Music - Hamer Hall have left I extend a heartfelt thank you. To Claire Brown - Deputy Principal, who is retiring after 15 years at St Joseph’s College I extend my deep appreciation. Claire has managed to help shape our College culture through her nurturing, restorative and inclusive manner. She has been integral to the growth

Principal’s Report and development of the culture of our College and has constantly understood and nurtured our students, especially those in Years 7-9. Claire has overseen restorative practices throughout our College and has been a driver in so many ways, formulating policies, arranging guest speakers and conducting sessions with staff, students and families. Her input and overseeing of the Westcourt Campus initiative, especially in those early months were integral to this development. Claire’s critical eye across many areas of St Joseph’s has been invaluable and a great support to me. We say farewell but know Claire will continue to be a part of our College community in some form and we thank her sincerely for all she has done in the true spirit of Edmund Rice! To Helen Brislane, Library Technician, who leaves us after 35 years of dedicated service, we extend our heartfelt thanks. Helen’s quiet and thorough work ethic and diligence in all things supporting St Joseph’s staff, students and myself has been outstanding. We thank Helen for all she has been to our College and we know she and husband Terry, who has been a long-time supporter of our College too, will continue to feel welcome and a part of our community into the future. To Trish Merrett, part time teacher, we say a huge thank you for her 13 years of service, helping our students especially in the

English subject area. Again Trish is a quiet achiever who will be missed. Her care for both students and fellow staff members is to be commended as she gives of herself in so many ways. To our Office Manager, Zara Walter, we say farewell as she commences maternity leave before the birth of her first child in December. Our very best wishes go with Zara and Blake on this special journey in their lives. Carolyn Dodds, Educational Support staff member is finishing and taking on a new position. We thank Carolyn for her hard work and dedication over 8 years with our students in her care and wish her every success and happiness into the future. To Liz O’Connell, teacher at our Westcourt campus, we also say thank you for all you have done to help our students and extend every good wish for your future. To all our staff, teaching and non-teaching, I say a very big thank you for your hard work throughout 2014. Your care and support of students, families, our work environment and each other, are to be commended. We are extremely fortunate at St Joseph’s to have the high calibre of personnel who, work cohesively to make our College the best learning, welcoming and nurturing environment, it can be. God Bless. Paul Tobias- Principal

College Board Report It gives me great pleasure to present the St Joseph’s College Board report in my first year as chair person.

must also be acknowledged for the way in which they have embraced their new learning environment.

2014 has been another very busy year for the College and the various committees and support groups who all work towards improving and supporting efforts to provide affordable, quality education for our students. Some of these significant achievements include, but are not limited to: • College Open Day – March; • Parents and Friends Trivia Night – March; • Formal opening of the Year 9 Westcourt Campus – March; • Old Collegians Annual Reunion – May; • Catholic Education Office External Review - June/ July; • P&F Artisan Markets- July; • The annual College Board Seminar – August; • Upstart Entrepreneurial Challenge – June to September; • TriUMPH Music Festival – September; • Parents and Friends Fashion Show – September; • Parent Cyber Bullying Training – October. • Combined Colleges’ Board/Council Gathering November

The annual board seminar was held at Queenscliff in August where board members, the College leadership team and various faculty representatives, participated in a number of facilitated discussions and presentations around strategic and financial planning, curriculum development and student welfare. The board’s involvement in the seminar has provided us with great confidence that the school will continue to ‘strive for the highest’ and will prosper as a leading provider of secondary catholic education for ‘our boys’.

The formal external school review was undertaken during June and July by Mr Tony Frizza and Mr John Marks on behalf of the Catholic Education Office. Areas of evaluation included education in faith; learning and teaching; student wellbeing; leadership and management; and school community. At the September board meeting, lead reviewer Tony Frizza presented a summary of findings. Overall the reviewers were impressed by the positive, energetic atmosphere that pervades the College and the sense that this is a community that is constantly evolving and improving. The review found that St Joseph’s has very solid foundations on which to build into the future and the outcome of the review is that St Joseph’s has again met the standards and requirements of registration of the Victorian Registration and Qualifications Authority.

I thank our Principal Paul Tobias, Deputies Paul Clohesy and Claire Brown, Business Manager Terry Fowler, Principal Personal Assistants Maureen Bryant & Adel Mawson, College Leaders and fellow Board Members for their ongoing commitment to making St Joseph’s the inclusive and engaging community that it is. I would like to particularly acknowledge Claire Brown and David Formosa, who will be departing the College at the end of this year, for the significant professional and personal contributions they have made to our College community over many years. To Claire, we wish you all the best in your pending retirement and to David we wish you every success in your new position at Our Lady of Sacred Heart College, East Bentleigh. Finally I would like to acknowledge board member Peter Madden Guest speaking who has been a member of the College Board for at Investitiure of 11 years and a past president of the Old Collegians Leaders Association. Peter will be leaving the board at the end of this year, and so on behalf of the board I thank you for your fellowship, generosity and candor and as a valued member of our college community. Brett Harman - Chairperson

It has also been exciting to see the Westcourt Campus become a reality after many years of planning. The College has worked extremely hard to provide students with the best program and facilities possible and it is a credit to the management team and campus staff who have worked tirelessly to achieve such a positive outcome.The students

College Captain’s Report 2014 proved to be an exciting and successful year for the college. For the year 7s, it was the beginning of a boy’s journey into the unknown and for the year 12s, it lead to the strength and maturity required to be young men embarking on a new transition in their lives. The 6 years I’ve spent at this college have been truly special and I will always cherish the memories. St Joseph’s is no ordinary school. It is a school I’m emotionally, as well as socially, attached to and where I’ll always feel right at home. I know that I speak for my peers when I say that we feel truly blessed that our parents sent us here. Bearing the role as College Captain has been a fulfilling experience. Whether it was participating in traditional events like the School Swimming and Athletics Days (where the year 12s were given the opportunity to dress up for the first time) or simply being in the yard with my mates, my memories are tinged with happiness. This year also saw St Joseph’s show its true colours in terms of its generosity. Edmund Rice Day raised $50,000 for the community of Mannya in Africa while the Winter Formal, formerly the MidWinter Ball, featured the year 12s of the four Geelong Catholic colleges coming together to raise $6,000 for Headspace.

You’re only at St Joseph’s College for so long, so it’s best to make the time here a great one filled with memories you’ll cherish forever.” - Sammy Rotiroti

Arguably the biggest event of the year was the 2014 Tri-UMPH Music Festival. The day couldn’t have been a success without the extraordinary work comprised by leaders of the four Geelong Catholic colleges. The event was organised over a twelvemonth period during which leaders worked diligently behind the scenes along with the tireless efforts of Ms Rebecca Westwood and Mr Simon Cahir. The music festival, held once every three years, managed to raise $60,000 for the funding of a teachers’ college and youth development in the towns of Baucau and Railaco in East Timor, as well as providing assistance to the Christian

Brothers. The astonishing amount of work that was undertaken this year within the College doesn’t belong to any sole person; instead, it was a genuine team effort. To honour this, I’d like to recognise the 2014 leadership team with the guidance of Ms Rebecca Westwood, Ms Angela Baker and Mr Chris Lynch as well as the Year 12 Coordinator, Ms Monika Ercoli. The Deputy College Captains, Ryan Bentley and Nick Brandimarti, were instrumental in the running of a fruitful year. Ryan and Nick proved themselves as valuable leaders and excellent role models for the younger year levels of the College. To them both, I wish all the best for their journeys ahead. As I prepare to embark on my own journey, I’d like to thank the Year 12s for being a superb year level to represent, to thank them for their companionship and support and to wish them all the very best for the upcoming years. I’d also like to farewell Assistant Principal, Ms Claire Brown, for her retirement from the College after being a mother figure at the school for countless years. Lastly, I challenge the younger year levels to “strive for the highest” in all aspects of school life. You’re only at St Joseph’s College for so long, so it’s best to make the time here a great one filled with memories you’ll cherish forever. Sammy Rotiroti - 2014 College Captain

Building Works Much time has been spent during the year on the designing and planning for the next major building project being the Staff and Student Services Building (Stage 1) and the Administration Offices Refurbishment (Stage 2). The construction of Stage 1will commence in December 2014 with completion expected by November 2015.The Stage 1 works involve the centralisation of a number of student services including, careers, counselling, education support, timetabling and vocational education. The building will also house a new staffroom, meeting rooms and daily organiser office.There will also be an expanded area for the maintenance workshop. The estimated cost of the Stage 1 build is $5.0M and will be funded from a combination of building fund donations, cash reserves and new debt. These works will substantially change the face of the College on the Aphrasia Street frontage. Stage 2 will be less extensive and will involve the refurbishment of the former staffroom into administration offices and a reworking of the current reception area to include an archival and student work display area. During the year initial plans of the office layout have been prepared. These will be further refined in 2015 with plans for the works to be undertaken late 2015 and into 2016. It is estimated that these works will cost about $1.5M.

Planning also commenced during the year for the construction of a Chapel at Westcourt campus. It is expected that construction will commence about February 2015 and be completed later in the year. This project has been made possible as a consequence of the generosity of a former student who has gifted $100,000. This contribution has been doubled by our Old Collegians Association who has gifted $250,000 to the project. Former student, Anthony Baldasso of Baldasso, Cortese Architects has kindly designed the building, free of charge. The total cost of the Chapel is expected to be some $600,000. Minor works undertaken during the year included the construction of a shelter on O’Driscoll oval. This shelter which can be used by the wider community provides much needed protection from the sun and rain. A new fire service system was installed and additional asphalting works were undertaken at Westcourt campus. At the main campus six, Year 7 classrooms were upgraded with painting, new furniture and pinboards. A program to continue the upgrade of more classrooms will continue over the next few years. Finally, a half basketball court was constructed on Carey oval to provide additional activity facilities for our Year 8 students during lunch. Terry Fowler

Foundation Report 2014 Was another big year for the St Joseph’s College Foundation.The student population has grown to well over 1500, and our association, together with the other voluntary groups of the College, support over 1300 families around the City of Greater Geelong. Our Upstart Entrepreneurial Challenge, has been so successful that many schools wanted to be part of the competition.The last challenge saw an additional 5 schools included, with $20k pledged from the State Government. The schools that joined the challenge this year were: Sacred Heart College The Geelong College Northern Bay College Western Heights College Matthew Flinders Girls Secondary College St Joseph’s student, Braydon Thomson, was the winner, with the People’s Choice award going again to St Joseph’s College students, Nicholas Van Meel, and Xavier Dowd. Congratulations to those boys for their places in our challenge. So it’s now very much a regional competition. However the Foundation remains a proud major sponsor…. And I can’t speak highly enough of our Development sub committee who came up with the original idea, and now get to watch it grow into such a great educational community initiative.

Our Development Manager, David Formosa, resigned in Term 3, as he took up a similar position at Sacred Heart College Bentleigh. We lost a great asset in David and his wife Deb, but we have been equally fortunate in replacing him with Mr Kristen Gleeson. Kristen, and his wife Lauren, have 2 daughters. He came to us from CUB,where for the past 5 years he was employed as a business development executive; so we see his position at St Joseph’s as a perfect fit. And we wish him well in his new appointment. Currently our investment and finance sub committee is conducting a feasibility study in further developing our Myers Street property to maximise its potential return. The St Joseph’s College Foundation celebrates its 20th anniversary in 2015. I joined the management committee from its inception. It’s been an exciting and rewarding time, personally, watching it develop into an extremely strong association, which is laying the “foundations” for the long term future of our college and its cohort. Sincere thanks to Principal, Paul Tobias, and his management team; to the other voluntary college organisations; and to Lauren, Natasha, and Susan! To all within our st.Joseph’s community, best wishes for the future. Peter Rudd - Foundation Chairman

Josephines The Josephine’s have had another successful year of friend raising and fund raising for our St Joseph’s College Educational Support Program. Our evening dinner was held at Truffleduck in Fyansford in March with 71 guests in attendance. We were addressed by Donna Field, guardian of Vincent McDonald (past student). Donna shared her story about taking up employment in remote communities in the Northern Territory with her husband Tony. Tony’s work took him to Alice Springs, whilst Donna, a nurse, was asked to help out at a community 60 kilometres west of Alice Springs. The pictures of this small township were amazing and Donna braved many elements to help these people. She became close to one grandmother of a young boy named Vincent. She was very unwell and in need of ongoing support. This grandmother’s health deteriorated rapidly and before Donna and Tony were to return to Victoria she asked would they consider taking and caring for Vincent, which they eventually did. Vincent attended Our Lady’s Star of the Sea, Ocean Grove, having many learning difficulties and other issues to overcome. The patience and care given were outstanding. He then came to St Joseph’s in Year 7 and gradually gained much confidence and grew into a fine young man, through these great opportunities. Donna and Tony had helped Vincent in so many ways. Vincent visited his home towards the end of Year 8 and finally stayed with his community. Our staff still try to keep in touch with Vincent. This was a very positive and moving presentation arranged by Mark Turner, Educational Support Coordinator which is another example of his support team working across many areas and cultures within our College. Truffleduck would have to be one of the most popular venues for our community. The service, food, atmosphere and warm welcome by Deb Nash and her staff was again outstanding. Stories and updates were shared and everyone present enjoyed this get together. Our second outing was to Barwon Edge, not far from St Joseph’s. We had 70 guests attend for lunch. We enjoyed a 2 course meal in a beautiful setting. Paul welcomed our guests and introduced Mr Kristen Gleeson, our new Development Manager, whom Paul

had taught at Emmanuel College Warrnambool. Mark Turner thanked our Josephine’s for supporting the Educational Support Program by attending these functions or by making donations. This year we have raised $1,638.63 which has helped restock all their educational games and we are looking to purchase equipment for students with vision impairment. Mark then introduced our guest speaker, staff member, Susan Collins, Koorie Educational worker. Susan is based at St Joseph’s College, but also continues her role working with Aboriginal students at other Geelong Catholic schools. Susan shared her family story which was extremely moving. Susan’s deep understanding of culture and country is invaluable and we are very fortunate to have her as a member of staff helping ATSI students. Once again we gathered news from around the room. A beautiful day was enjoyed by all as the staff from Barwon Edge made us feel welcome and the food was delicious! The Josephine’s provide a great opportunity for past and current mothers and staff members, other family members and friends of the College to come together in a friendly atmosphere, enjoy a meal and stay connected to our great College. So thank you for taking the time to attend our gatherings and for your ongoing support. Thanks to Natasha Solczaniuk - Events Coordinator, David Formosa, Development Manager for their invaluable assistance in organising our events and for monitoring our ever growing data base. We say farewell and a huge thank you to David for his six years helping our Josephine’s Group. We now look forward to Kristen Gleeson, taking up the challenge to be an important part of our team. Our special thanks are also extended to Kristen’s talented assistant, Lauren Salcombe, for creatively preparing all our correspondence and constantly supporting us in all we do. We take this time to reflect on all those who have been unwell or have died throughout 2014 and we ask God’s blessings on each and every one of you, those you love and who are in your care. Thank you all for being a part of our Josephine’s in 2014 and we wish you and your families all the very best. Kate Parke & Maureen Bryant – Coordinators

Parents & Friends The St Joseph’s College Parents & Friends has had a busy 2014, holding various events to both continue to foster the wonderful community spirit enjoyed by our school and to raise valuable funds for the college and for those less fortunate. Our group has welcomed many new faces throughout the year at our meetings and as helpers at our various functions. We are a very active group which welcomes input from anyone within our school community on ways to strengthen the link between parents and the school and on any new fundraising ideas. We are strongly supported in these endeavours by the school and its leaders for which we are grateful. The strengths of our group are the people who are involved and who give their time generously for the benefit of our boys, also its friendly and relaxed approach which hopefully allows anyone to feel comfortable to be a part of. We meet once a month and everyone is welcome. Our first event for the year was the always popular, Trivia Night. It was held in the school gym and attended by over 280 people. It was a relaxed and fun night, hosted by trivia man, Simon Morrison, and raised over $3300. The sub-committee ensured there was a great atmosphere and that the gym looked great so thank you to them for their hard work. For the 4th year in a row, the P&F catered for the Old Collegians reunion which was held at the Alex school in May. The old boys enjoyed reminiscing Hecker and catching up with old mates whilst being served hosting a variety of tasty finger food prepared and handed the around by volunteer parents. Thanks to the subFashion committee who worked hard to ensure the men Show were well fed! The Artisan Market was held again this year after the inaugural event last year which replaced the Art Show. On a chilly July weekend, over 60 stalls were set up in the College’s gymnasium with over 1500 people coming through the doors. There was a wide variety of homemade products to browse and yummy food on offer. The P&F provided a BBQ, selling egg & bacon rolls, sausages and hamburgers. Our café was back, serving fresh coffee made by our VCAL boys, heart-warming soup, toasties and delicious sweet treats. We hope to be able to build upon the success of this event next year. Over $11,000 was raised. A big Flower stall at the Artisan Market A great night out at the Fashion Show

thank you to the hard working sub-committee for their planning of this big event and to all those who helped out over the weekend. The Triumph music festival was held at St Josephs on a sunny September day and the P&F ran a food stall. Thank you to all the volunteers who manned the stall throughout the day and to the sub-committee who organised the food for over 5000 hungry students! We were proud to be a part of this great day and happy to contribute to the fundraising efforts for East Timor. A very big term 3 for the P&F ended with our biggest event of the year, the Annual Fashion Show. This event was held at Deakin Waterfront with the 300 tickets selling out earlier than ever. The meal provided by Truffleduck was excellent and the fashions showcased several local stores with a mixture of casual and more elegant attire, including clothing from Cotton On and Myer. The night was Emceed by the lovely Alex Hecker. The Mannya beads proved popular and the silent auction had a variety of wonderful items to bid on. Over $12,000 was raised, which will be used to assist those in great need in Uganda. Many thanks must go to all those involved in this major event, who provide their expertise and time to make this a successful night, including the Gordon hair and make-up departments. The planning begins many months prior and the sub-committee work tirelessly to create an event worthy of its reputation as a great night out. The P&F once again provided a basic CPR first aid course for Year 12 students . This year 65 boys took part which was wonderful to see. This year we have raised around $36,000. This is a great result and will enable us to contribute to the schools bursary fund, redevelopment of the cricket nets on Carey oval (together with the school and cricket club) and provide school supplies to those in great need in Kenseka, Uganda. Finally, thank you to everyone from our school community who attended an event, donated goods or services or helped out in any way throughout the year. Without this support we couldn’t achieve what we do or create the welcoming environment for our community to be a part of. We look forward to your ongoing support in 2015. With the school’s 80th anniversary, it promises to be a big year! Jackie Richards & Terri Walker - P&F Co-Presidents

Old Collegians’ Association 2014 was another fantastic year for the Old Collegians’ Association.At the AGM of 2014 the following committee was elected: Justin O’Brien - President John Fitzgerald – Senior Vice President Sam Hopgood – Junior Vice President Sam O’Dwyer – Treasurer Nick Jahnecke – Administrative Officer General Committee Members - Joe Virgona, Dean Bushell, Roger Hardwick, David McCusker, Greg Thompson, Andrew Conte, Nick Cooper and Alex Kelly. On Sunday 9 February the Annual St Joseph’s College Old Collegians’ Golf Day was held at 13th Beach Golf Links Barwon Heads. Just under 200 players took to the beautifully maintained Links course, in an Ambrosestyle team competition. In what were hot and windy conditions, many players made extremely hard work of the day. Overall a great day was had by all teams. Overall winners on the day were the team comprising of Alan Hogan, Josh Dempsey, Ryan Goosen, Cam Mernone and Paul Cumper. They won the playoff hole against the team from 63 Degrees; comprising of Simon Bryant, Jono Bryant, Adam Walters, Daniel Walsh and Grant Sutherland. The Annual Golf Day is a major fundraiser for our Old Collegians with all money generously raised going towards the St Joseph’s College Bursary Fund. Many thanks to all the players and sponsors of the Golf Day. The Annual Reunion held at the College in May had over 200 Old Collegians attend. The night is always filled with great memories and laughs from times past. The reunion for the 5 year and 1 year groups was held at Lamby’s on the same night. This was a trial and next year we will revert back to having everyone at the College.

The committee has done a wonderful job in raising funds and investing wisely over a number of years and currently has in excess of $400,000 in investments. We have decided this year to contribute $250,000 to the Westcourt Campus Chapel Project. The building of the Chapel will commence in 2015 and will be located near the corner of Minerva Road and Douglas Street. It is hoped that the project will be completed during the middle of the school year. The project has also received a gift of $100,000 from another past student of the College. Anthony Balsasso of ‘Baldasso Corese Architects’ designed the space free of charge, and another past student Adam Gleeson of ‘A Gleeson Constructions Pty Ltd’ will be the builder. This is a project the old Collegians can be proud to be associated with. It was sad to hear the news of the resignation of David Formosa; David’s contribution and involvement with the Old Collegians’ Association has been enormous. We have been very lucky to have David work with us and we sincerely thank him for his efforts whilst he has been at the College. We wish him all the best in his new role in Melbourne. It is with great pleasure that we welcome Kristen Gleeson who replaces David in this role. I am sure Kristen will follow on from the great work of David and we wish him all the best. John Fitzgerald has resigned as Vice-President due to other commitments. John has been a valuable member of the committee for many years. We would like to thank him for his leadership, ideas and the time he has dedicated to making the SJOCA a success. Thank you to all committee members for their dedicated commitment to the Association and to St Joseph’s. Justin O’Brien - President

The Melbourne Reunion was held in October at the Emerald Hotel, South Melbourne. Over 50 past students attended and made a great night of it. Many thanks to Jane Lewis and all the staff at the Emerald Hotel. The Remembrance Mass was held in November in the College Chapel, afterwards those in attendance enjoyed afternoon tea in the College staffroom.

Annual Golf Day Annual Reunion

Mens Association & Care Group I have been privileged to work with all the great volunteers in the Men’s Association again this year. As in the past, we have run a roster of four teams during the school term and each team has been well represented with an average of eight members turning up on Sunday mornings, with the best result being sixteen dads presenting for work When I commenced this report I thought, “we haven’t really done that much this year” but how wrong I was. With an eager work force we have been able to complete the usual tasks around the college, such as mowing the grounds, cleaning lockers, weeding flower beds, general cleanup of the quadrangle, setup and pack up for exams, also school assembly setups. Functions such as the Artisan Market, held in the college gym, take a special effort from two working bee teams for all the afterhours work involved. During the year we also helped Mrs Kelly Jenkins with her sustainability initiative of labeling all the bins at the college to assist with the collection of comingled and general waste.

“When I commenced to write this report I thought, we haven’t really done that much this year. But how wrong I was” - Pierre Belluzzo

On behalf of the Team Captains David Cogan, Rohan Crowe, Des Nolan and Danny Sheedy, we would like to thank all our members for a job well done and hope to see you all back next year to continue the great work maintaining the college grounds. I would also like to thank Des Nolan, Travis Smith and Peter Leorke, who volunteered to run the working bees when I was unable to attend.

I would like to invite all the college fathers to consider joining us on the working bees and be rewarded with good company, a steak or snag with a cold beer after a pleasant Sunday morning, come hail or shine. Setting up the gym for assembly Pierre Belluzzo - Property Manager

CARE GROUP Our Care Group was formed to assist families during times of crisis. Each year this group has done wonderful work supporting those in our community when they are most in need. Last year was an extremely sad year for our College with a number of parents and staff illness and bereavements. We have been able to assist approximately 8 families throughout the year, with 40-50 meals supplied. The families were most appreciative of the support. A number of these families have received ongoing help to ensure there is a meal ready for their family as they cope with complex and long term illness. We sincerely thank our wonderful band of volunteer cooks / helpers who have prepared and provided many meals for others throughout 2014. We wish all our families good health, love and happiness. Anne Ross & Zoe Callahan - Care Group Coordinators We would like to acknowledge the work of our coordinators Anne Ross and Zoe Callahan and their band of helpers who provided many meals during the course of 2014. This year we welcomed Zoe Callahan to our team and we farewell Anne Ross. After 6 years Anne is stepping down from her coordinators role with her youngest son Ciaran completing Year 12 this year. Before that Anne has helped as a volunteer cooking meals, making it 11 years of involvement in a very real way. We have been fortunate to have Anne on board as she has been a driving force behind our Care Group, while her sons, Nicholas (2010) and Ben (2008) attended St Joseph’s. Anne’s commitment to the SJC community has been wonderful, and the compassion and support she has given to all our families along the way, has been outstanding. We would like to thank Anne for being an important part of the St Joseph’s College Care Group and extend every good wish to Anne, Tony and their family for the future. Thank you so much for your support, Paul Tobias, Principal

Marking up bins for the yard

From the Archives When the 2015 school year begins, 80 years will have passed since St Joseph’s College opened its doors. What many of you may not know is that 125 years ago there was another St Joseph’s College on Newtown Hill. St Joseph’s Catholic boys’ College existed for three short years. The story of how the links between St Augustine’s Orphanage, and St Joseph’s College were formed, broken and reformed is fascinating. On 15 March 1857, Bishop Goold laid the foundation stone for St Augustine’s Orphanage. On 28 August1857, St Augustine’s opened its doors to the Catholic orphans of Geelong. November 1878 saw the arrival of the Christian Brothers, who took over the running of the orphanage. Brother Canice Butler was the first Superior, he was a man of great insight, and by the time of his death at the age of 45, he had established St Augustine’s position within the Geelong community. By 1880 a small number of boarders were living with the orphans and being educated by the Brothers. Many parents wished their sons to have the benefit of the excellent education the Brothers were providing. In 1889 Brother Canice Butler was under increasing pressure to increase the number of places available for boarders and it was decided to establish St Joseph’s College as a boarding school for Catholic boys. The beautiful red brick building facing Aphrasia Street was erected to house the boarders,(the land had been purchased by Brother Butler in 1884). February 1890 saw the first St Joseph’s College opening its doors. Although Brother Butler managed both St Augustine’s and St Joseph’s, the boarders lived separate lives from the orphans. In January 1891 there were 57 boarders enrolled, and 37

‘Townboys’ travelled on Horseback from Lara and Little River. While the boys were enjoying the benefits of a Christian Brother education their horses grazed on the orphanage paddocks. At this time St Augustine’s was home to 150 orphans. St Joseph’s College did not have the support of Bishop Goold and the Provincial Council and when St Patrick’s Ballarat opened, the parents of the boarders were offered financial incentive to move their sons to St Patrick’s.When the boarders went home at the end of the 1893 school year, the first St Joseph’s College shut its doors. By 1933 there had not been a Catholic boys high school in Geelong for many years. Some senior boys attended classes at St Mary’s Catholic primary school, however as space was limited and the classes were small, there was an obvious need to provide a good Catholic education for senior boys. At this time St Augustine’s was home to more than 250 orphan boys. It was decided to build a new orphanage in Highton, with the plan being that the Newtown site would be made available for the re-establishment of St Joseph’s Catholic boarding school. In January 1935, after a hiatus of 42 years, St Joseph’s College reopened and boarders were again being educated on Newtown Hill. Between 1935 and 1939 Newtown Hill was home to both St Augustine’s orphans and St Joseph’s boarders. In 1939 St Augustine’s moved to its new home in Highton.

Year 7 The transition from the familarlarity of primary school to secondary school provides a unqiue set of challenges faced by all students as they adapt to their new school.The 2014 Year 7 Cohort at St Joseph’s College have taken advantage of the huge array of activities that allow students to interact with and meet new people, develop friendships and find acitivites that value add to the educational programs. The Year 7 Student Leadership Team have been able to reflect on some of these experiences in 2014. - Simon Piasante - Year 7 Coordinator

ATHLETICS DAY

Athletics day was one of the best days of the year. I had been looking forward to it and it was way better than I thought. It had a wide variety of sports from running, high jump, shotput and some more running.You don’t just get points for winning events you also get them for cheering and competing. So you didn’t have to be the best at every activity. Seeing all the amazing talents was also great. You move around the school to each activity as a House group which was great for making new friends. It was amazing watching the 100m race because you can watch the fastest people in the school race against each other. Athletics day was one of the best days of the year because of all the fun and competitive activities. - Leif steanovski & Callum McDermott

CAMP

In May we went to camp Myrnigyong near Bacchus Marsh. As the bus stopped everybody rushed to the courtyard, we put our bags away the fun began. The activities at camp were fun for everyone, there was Orienteering, Geo tracking, Kayaking, stand up paddle boarding, bike riding and so much more. The best activity was by far the flying fox, we got told that the length of it was 170m long which is the length of the MCG. The whole idea of camp was to meet new friends and challenge ourselves. It was a great experience and definitely the highlight of the year. - Finn Dripps, Ben Minge, William Taylor & Zachary Stevenson

SWIMMING CARNIVAL

On 12 February St Joey’s held their Swimming Carnival with points for the Adam Bryant Shield up for grabs. It was our first year and the excitement was up. Drew Green won the Under 13s 50m freestyle

and breaststroke events. Joel Lewis also won the Under 13 backstroke, showing that the Butler boys had some upcoming stars. The older year levels proved too strong for the young butler boys which led to Foley taking the victory by only 30 points over Butler. Behind all the competition there was quite a bit of fun involved with us being able to have access to the diving boards and water slides. Our first Swimming Carnival – a successful and enjoyable one too! - Jake Powe & Connor Fopiani

EDMUND RICE DAY

On 17 March the College celebrated our own Eddie Rice Day. The day kicked off with a brisk 4.5km run along the river. Activities around the school consisted of a ‘slip n slide,’ sumo wrestling, Xbox tournaments, chalk drawing, water balloon slingshots, gladiator battles and lucky dips. When the boys weren’t at these there was also the fantastic music entertainment played by multiple school bands. The College raised a spectacular total of $47,900 for the village of Mannya in Uganda, that is going to make hundreds of people’s lives a higher quality than they ever would have imagined. - Charlie Roache & Mitchell Wesson

TRIUMPH

TRIUMPH started with a bang, literally! With the mayor of Geelong Darren Lyons addressing all four of the schools involved (St Josephs, Sacred Heart, Clonard and St. Ignatius). TRIUMPH was a day to raise money and awareness for poverty in East Timor and also to enjoy great music, great food and a great time with our friends. Throughout the day there were markets and stalls who sold delicious foods. The highlight was the music stations around the school, from the chill out stage, to the main stage and to the electric stage. It was a great day of festivities, being with our friends and listening and dancing to great music. - Daniel Gulli & Brad Edwards

BEACH BONANZA DAYS

All the classes went to the beach to play some games and other activities. All the boys also had the chance to surf. There was a range of different things from team games and personal activities. The surfing was awesome and a great experience to all the boys that had never given surfing a go. The Beaches we went to where Cosy Corner and Bancoora. It was a great day and I am sure that all the boys would have enjoyed it. - Ned Calnon and Joahua Sorgiovanni

Year 8 THE YEAR OF BOUNCE!

From the beginning of 2014, the Year 8 students have been keen, excited and energetic. All the boys have participated in many great and varied experiences. The personal, social, emotional, intellectual and physical growth has been noted by many. Many boys have risen to a variety of challenges presented, and I hope that each and every one of the students have enjoyed their year. I personally have loved working with this group of fine individuals. There has been such a diverse range of boys within Year 8 and this has made them a special group. The student leaders (class captains and year level leaders) have led by example and helped other students to shine in their respective ways. However, many other students have achieved greatness in a variety of domains. I congratulate and applaud all the boys that have stepped outside their comfort zone and pushed themselves to strive for greatness. With Westcourt awaiting I’m sure they will ‘bounce’ their way down there and make a lasting impression on the next stage of their Joey’s Journey. I wish each and every one of the current Year 8’s, all the very best and I look forward to hearing about their progress in 2015. Good luck boys! Dan Hale - Year 8 Coordinator

Year 8 ... written by the student leaders ACTIVITIES WEEK

Year 8 classes travelled by bus and train to Melbourne for three days and several interesting experiences. Using Myki cards to travel around, the Year 8s had the joy of visiting some of Melbourne’s most historic and important buildings and places, including Eureka Skydeck, the Immigration Museum, ACMI, Melbourne Museum, Melbourne Gaol and the infamous MCG. - Ben Fraser The MCG and National Sports Museum was a good experience. - Harry Santispirito At the Immigration Museum we learnt about refugees and their journeys from their home countries, the conditions that some people had to live in, things like how ships changed over time and even a short film that played explaining people’s stories. Highlights of the day included: being able to find our way around the museum and doing interactive activities. It was a really great experience. - Xavier Dowd

The Melbourne Gaol was old, dark and full of stories, the walls filled with history of our culture and justice. The highlight of the day was hearing the stories of those who were sent to the gaol, why they were sent there, how long they were there for and if they were executed. - Colten Dunn. At the Melbourne Museum we attended Bunjilaka. We learnt about Aboriginal culture, the Dreamtime and Aboriginal history. We saw weapons and tools used, the boats, cooking and the artwork. - Jake McCorkell Unlike most other excursions or camps, students were given the opportunity to use public transport to get them from Geelong into Melbourne, where they would further use public transport to travel to some of Melbourne’s iconic locations. The highlight of the day was getting the train back to Geelong with all of our goodies we had collected that day. - Patrick Richards. During the cultural immersion we had a talk from an Aboriginal man and his son Pancake. He told us that he was Australian, he was Aboriginal and he was indigenous. He told us what this meant and the importance of it. To finish it off, Pancake played the didgeridoo for us. - Jake McCorkell We also had a professional Bollywood dancer come and teach us some moves to some classic and modern day songs. Some people were also called up to dance in front of all of their peers including our very own Mr Hale. - Gabe Hickey

OTHER YEAR 8 ACTIVITIES: Battle ball house competition. The popular competition was spread over 3 rounds, two semis, and a final afterwards - Foley won. - Gabe Hickey ACC Public Speaking. We came up against a number of other schools from across the Geelong regions. The highlight of the day was watching everyone speak and getting to know some people from other schools. It was really fun. At the start of 2014 all Year 8 boys - Xavier Dowd were eager to get a cracker of a Badminton Rally Day. In Term year started. Although we had to 3, 15 Year 8 Joey’s boys headed off to MSAC to play badminton adapt to a new area, and being in the ACC Tournament. We more independent we were all were beaten by some really up for the challenge. As the year good schools, but we enjoyed progressed we have all made new the day and look forward to friends or built a closer relationship playing again. - Daniel Corray

with others.

- Nicolas Boccassini

Year 8 Healthy Living/Rock & Water. One Health unit we completed was called Rock & Water (Self-Defence). We learnt; ‘Chinese Boxing’ where we had to try and stay as still as possible while trying to get the opponent to stumble over, and self-defence moves. A highlight of the unit was breaking a piece of wood with our bare hands. - Joseph Caruana. We also had excursions to bocce, table tennis and ten pin bowling. All three were fun. - Finbar Lonergan ACC Basketball: The ACC basketball team had an unlucky few games but overall all the kids and Mr Jovic had fun and a great time. - Nathan Mifsud ACC Soccer: The Year 8 soccer team travelled to Parade College where the boys played some great soccer and displayed great teamwork and sportsmanship. On behalf of the team a special thanks to Mr Colak, Mr Trupkovic, Mr Jovic and Mr Milverton for helping organise the day. - Mitchell Johns LOTE Excursions: All LOTE classes will be going up to Melbourne - Italian students to Lygon St. and Chinese students to China Town. We will learn about culture and different lifestyles. - Joseph Caruana

Winter Sleep Out: Some students slept outside to spread awareness of the growing problem of homelessness. - Jurrin Romanis Grovedale College Sports Day: This year, Year 8s had the opportunity to play basketball, football and soccer against Grovedale Secondary College. All of the Joeys teams won on the day and had plenty of fun. Thanks to Mr Jovic, Mr Lynch and Mr Colak for helping to organise the day for us. - Elliot Horan NEW Basketball Court: This year we now have fantastic new basketball court. We kicked off by having a very competitive basketball competition on the courts, with Mr Gnaccarini organising this. Team Ubergang won. It has really been fun using the new and wonderful courts. Thanks Mr Hale and SJC for providing us with these courts. - Lewis Antonac Cybersafety Robbie Noggler informed us about cyber-safety. It was an interesting insight into the cyber world. - Ged Gallagher With new equipment and new classrooms, next year will definitely be a new experience as we move up to the Year 9 campus. Bring it on! - Hamish McManus Year 8 3D Art: In this subject we have researched lots of information about different types of dragons and even got to make one out of clay. We also researched masks and their uses in different cultures. We then chose a particular style and made it using mod-roc. It has been great fun and we learnt about the art elements and principles and how to apply them to our practical art. - Josh Pellegrino

Westcourt Campus THE RITE JOURNEY

The Rite Journey was a unique life skills program designed to support student development in particular in becoming self-aware, responsible and resilient young men. As part of the development students were involved in ceremonies which marked specific moments of accomplishment. Three of the most significant ceremonies were The Calling, The Solo and The Homecoming. The Calling involved students taking up and meeting the goals of The Rite Journey. The Solo involved students developing skills in self-reflection and taking up a personal challenge of spending a night in a tent by themselves. The Homecoming was an emotional ceremony which involved the boys reflecting on their time at Westcourt and transitioning back to main campus.

CHALLENGES

Planet Green was introduced as a subject in the new Year 9 Westcourt curriculum. The Planet Green challenge is simple - To build a functional, sustainable garden, including all furniture and structures that are cheap to produce and maintain in any backyard regardless of size. Throughout the 2nd semester I was involved in quite a few different projects around the garden. I helped build a few different garden beds, a vertical garden, dug many holes, planted plants and herbs, cemented fence posts and was involved in the major group project building the pizza oven. Planet Green has been a great learning experience helping me to gain some new skills, become more experienced with different tools and do things I hadn’t done before. - Aedan Green

ENRICHMENT

This year at the Westcourt campus, the curriculum has completely changed to previous years. New subjects in the curriculum are the Enrichment subjects. These subjects allow the students to enter and explore various career opportunities that they would like to be involved in. Some of these subjects include Biology on the move, Maths is in the air, Power to the people and Game on! Game design. - Isaac Travers-Hucker

ANZAC DAY COMMEMORATION

At the start of the Anzac Day Commemoration day all Year 9 students and teachers met in the Waterford Learning Centre, where Warrant Officer Jeffrey Carthew from the army spoke to us about Anzac Day and we also commemorated those soldiers who gave their life in the war. The Year 9 students spent the day doing Anzac related activities such as designing a memorial and some learnt about the weaponry used in the war and other groups made a flower wreath, played a game call two up and some made Anzac biscuits. - Ethan Belleville The ANZAC commemoration day was a day we spent understanding the sacrifices our countrymen made on our behalf. We participated in the re-enactment of the Christmas truce soccer match, music, made Anzac biscuits and a wreath for the Dawn Service, Life today in the Australian Army, Experience Kokoda, met a Rat of Trobruk from World War 2 and a Vietnam War Veteran, Art, visited the Peace Memorial in Johnston Park, and Designed a Westcourt Memorial. What ANZAC day means to us is that it is a day that we remember those who fought for our country and especially the ones who died. They should definitely run it next year because we learnt so much that we wouldn’t have if we didn’t do it. We also got a greater understanding of what ANZAC day really means. - Fraser Toohey and Tom Douglas 9E

AMAZING RACE

This year at Westcourt, teachers gave students a great opportunity to go to Melbourne and have an independent metropolitan experience. It was called the Westcourt Amazing Race. Students were divided into groups of four and were sent out to achieve tasks and challenges that made us learn a bit about Melbourne. We saw and learnt about some iconic places including the Immigration Museum, China Town and Federation square. It was a great experience and all the students learnt a lot from it.

Westcourt Campus CENTRAL AUSTRALIA TRIP The central Australia trip was a great experience for me and helped me to become a better person. We saw many different great natural landmarks like Uluru and Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park which would take your breath away. The journey was a great adventure for all the boys and I’m sure it will be a trip to remember. Sam Christenson

HIP HOP DANCING

This year at Westcourt we had a guy by the name of Chad, known as ‘The Chad’ come to the campus and teach us Hip Hop. We learnt heaps of different moves and we had a great year learning from him, we hope we can continue this next year it was that much fun. Brandon Marnell This year we have had a dance teacher come in to the school to teach us Hip Hop. He was called ‘The Chad’. ‘The Chad’ would come down to Westcourt every Friday and the aim was for the students to learn something new each week and eventually do a performance at the end of the year. It was heaps of fun. - Petar Delac

YEAR 9 CAMP

For Year 9 camp we went to the Grampians. We participated in a range of activities that were designed to thrill us and push us to our limits. My favourite activity was the mountain bike riding, because at the end of the course there was a downhill section where we went extremely fast. - Michael Walker

WESTCOURT OPENING

The Westcourt Opening was a fantastic celebration of a new chapter at St Joseph’s College. The building was blessed by The Honourable Bishop Vincent Long, and was a fantastic celebration dedicated to the College’s founder Blessed Edmund Rice. The opening included traditional Irish dancers and a performance from a local Celtic singer.

WESTCOURT EXPO

At the conclusion of Term 2 parents were invited to celebrate their sons’ successes and achievements by participating workshops at the Westcourt Expo. The workshops were led by students and it was an opportunity for parents to be instructed and informed by their sons on some of the Challenge and Enrichment subjects. Examples of students’ work in their Enrichment and core subjects were presented as an interactive display in the Waterford Learning Centre and parents were given a tour of the campus by their son.

Year 10 The 2014 leadership team this year has achieved high results for its school as well as its community. With consistent discussion, every Homeroom on a Tuesday, we were able to successfully hold many key events, such as Triumph 2014, Science Week, and Edmund Rice Day. We also raised awareness for homophobia and the homeless. During our raising awareness campaigns, we were able to raise money to help as many people in need that we could. This was all directed and guided by our encouraging Leadership Coordinators, Ms Baker and Mr Lynch. Together we planned assemblies and speakers, helped notify our fellow students and teachers about the work this great school has done and how it has influenced the lives of many, and how we all can keep doing so through the motto of our school ‘Ad Alta Virtute’, and keep striving to become the SJC students that everybody knows we can be. - Chad Suphamongkol

DALY RIVER

In the last week of term 2 approximately 15 boys went up to the Northern Territory for the Indigenous Australian cultural immersion trip. After spending two nights in Darwin we drove to a remote Aboriginal settlement called Daly River, part of the Nauiyu Namimbiyu community. In between playing footy with the locals and soaking up the lifestyle, we discussed Aboriginal stereotypes and got an excellent insight into how they live. We then went out bush to camp with them, and some of the senior members of the community. Here they taught us how to cook, skin and prepare bush foods while also educating us on the dreaming of Aboriginals. This was an exceptional, once in a lifetime opportunity for the students. – Michael Callahan

WORK EXPERIENCE

Between 5-9 May, Year 10 students ventured out for work experience. Many found their placement highly enjoyable, they discovered their passion and what they would love to do in the future. A variety of professions were explored, including teaching, business, law, medicine, accounting,

engineering and journalism. For most of the boys, it was fun to act like a professional for the week, putting on the sharpest suit they could find, or putting on a hardhat and uniform. All of us are highly appreciative to the employers, who took us on for the week. This is a great opportunity - thank you to the Careers Department. - Daniel Rabbat, 10I

WORLD RELIGIONS PRESENTATIONS

Throughout Term 3, the Year 10 cohort worked on presentations and projects regarding different religions around the world. We were privileged enough to have talks by both a Buddhist Nun and Muslim Imam. The presentations provided us with an insightful perspective about the religions and dispersed any preconceived ideas we may have had. In particular, the Muslim Imam, Mohammed spoke of how extremists are not seen to be Islamic, as they have completely misread their sacred text, the Quran. Overall, the talks were incredibly fascinating and I’m sure the majority of people walked away with some new found knowledge. - Tom Howe

YEAR 10 SOCIAL

The Year 10 social was held in Term 2 where students from Sacred Heart, Clonard and St Joseph’s met at the elegantly set rooms of Capri for a night full of fun. The bright, loud and fun-filled environment had us all dancing and singing as people escaped from the school lifestyle for a night of enjoyment in the company of their friends. As we left the dance floor after the final song was played for the night, we filed out of the building, feet aching and ears ringing which concluded an unforgettable night of fun and meeting new people. – Will Cann 10B

YEAR 10 SOCCER TEAM

Towards the start of 2014, the best players from Year 10 were chosen to represent St Joseph’s College in the Associated Catholic Colleges (ACC) Soccer Competition. Over the first half of the year, the boys involved gained a great understanding about the strength of the team and players with interactive and engaging trainings. After practice games being played, the players soon became comfortable with each other but were to be tested by strong opposition. We played different colleges including Mazanod, Salesian and Parade College, all ranging in ability. After having a good run we missed out on finals by a small margin. I’m sure that everyone involved in this great experience will cherish these moments and hopefully reflect on it later in your senior years, I know that I will! Stjepan Gudasic 10A

Year 11 With many things happening throughout the year, the highlight of the 2014 for Year 11 students was Activities Week. The opportunity to go out into the community and serve proved a real winner amongst the boys, with many coming back to school discussing the people they met, the stories they heard and the work they did to make other people’s lives better. ACTIVITIES WEEK – COMMUNITY SERVICE During activities week, as part of community service, we went out to Batesford to the Dogrocks Sanctuary. We were on the bus in our dirtiest clothes not knowing what was going to happen that day. First we went on a tour around the beautiful lake then it was down to business. Over the week hundreds of Year 11 students pulled out thousands of boneseed plants that were suffocating the important native plants of the area. The barbeque was legendary!! There were sausages, lamingtons and drinks for all. It was a thoroughly enjoyable experience and a hard day’s work. It was also amazing to see how much boneseed had been cleared by previous years of St Joseph’s students and to see how much of a positive effect on the environment we had. - Liam Dixon Throughout activities week, the Year 11 boys took part in a community service program which saw us complete a range of activities to help our local community. One of the activities was visiting local primary schools including; Northern Bay, St Francis Xavier, Newcomb, Christ the King and Whittington. During our time at the schools we were able to partake in a wide variety of tasks from being in the classroom, working with and mentoring individual students and giving them assistance in the areas they found difficult, and even gardening. Being at the schools highlighted just how well off us boys, here at St Joseph’s, are and gave a real sense of pride and achievement to many of us as we were able to help out young kids who really needed it. - Nathan Dillon In activities week we had a day of ‘Disability Awareness’ and we had the opportunity to do activities like volleyball, goalball, soccer and a time trial to find the most accessible way to get to different parts of the College whilst being ‘disabled’ in someway. Whether we were blindfolded or having impairments on different parts of our body, all activities had us being disabled in

some way to authenticate the experience. Another aspect of this day included a guest speaker named Zane. He had cerebral palsy and he spoke about his life experiences and what it was like for him at a normal, everyday school like ours. He taught us a lot of life lessons and having a disability hasn’t impacted on his life like most of us thought it would. He has been a football coach, is married and is currently expecting his first child. Zane forced us to think about our own definition of ‘normal’ and how our stereotypes of disabled people can be very far from reality. Nicholas Lodge ACHIEVEMENTS THROUGHOUT 2014: We have many talented students in Year 11 who have represented SJC, Victoria and even Australia in a variety of sports and have even seen one talented student on the TV in a popular series. Some of the achievements include: Sam Atkins - winning the Element Skate comp held in Geelong and going on to represent Australia in a month of skate comps and tours around Los Angeles and surrounding areas. Will McCaskill – Triple Junior Club champion at 13th Beach Golf Club and being part of the Victorian U/18 Squad. Aiden Edwards – Junior Club Champion at Point Lonsdale Golf Club. Ben Cotter – was a vital member of the U/18 Victorian Lawn Bowls team who won Gold and Silver at the National Championships in Darwin. Jay Dalli – winning his first Victorian Amateur Boxing Association fight. Eamon Anderson – winning silver and bronze representing Victoria Country in Cross Country. Class of 11 H – who could forget their win in the Indoor Soccer competition... Congratulations! Jack Scarlett, Jackson McLachlan and Ben McNamara - representing the Geelong Falcons U/16 team. Thomas Vlamis – for his appearance as Tony Mokbel’s son in the hit TV series “Underbelly”.

Year 11 David McNeel and Angus Kramer – being an integral part of the Outreach Van which serves food to the needy on a regular basis. Well done to the students who have completed many hours of community service throughout the year – your dedication and compassion to the local community is a real credit to you all!! A special congratulations to David McNeel, Tom Doedee and Jackson Gravett who were voted in by peers and staff as the College Captain and Deputies for 2015. I’d like to also congratulate all Year 11 students who have taken up leadership positions for next year – it’s great to see so many are willing to take charge and make change where necessary – Well Done!!

We farewell those who are leaving at us the end of the 2014 to go into employment and thank them for their contributions in their time at the College and wish them all the best – you will always be welcome back at school reunions into the future. To those returning in 2015, your final year, we hope you have a safe, restful yet studious break, in preparation for a hectic, stressful-at-times, fun and memorable year ahead.

Year 12 Another amazing year has sped by with many great achievements and highlights and some sadness which has made this year memorable. As I farewell the class of 2014 I would like to commend the boys on their camaraderie, friendship and empathy for each other and those in the wider community. It has been my pleasure being your Year 12 Coordinator. Highlights include, The Winter Formal which was hugely successful and raised $5000 in support of Headspace. Tri-UMPH day comprised the four Catholic Colleges on SJC grounds was a spectacular event with so many of the senior students, either in a leadership capacity organising or supporting stages and events throughout the day. I am so proud of the Year 12s who have bonded together this year in some wonderful common causes. The Athletics with a costume theme this year spurred the boys to attend and encouraged friendly sporting rivalry. Boys appreciated their hoody as the winter months set in and we thank Adam Lloyd who designed the logo. The preparation for Celebration Day, Mass and Graduation has been unprecedented, with so many boys wanting to get involved. Thank you to the Homeroom teachers, Anne Condon, Margot Davies, Katherine Jenkins, Helen Keane, Teresa Taranto, Steve Catanzariti, John Mitchell, Mark Rayson, Peter Canaway, Nathaniel Smith, and helpers Mark Stracey and Anna Fazio who have been so supportive of your sons in their daily interactions. Thanks to all the College leaders especially the Captain Samuel Rotiroti, Deputy Captains Ryan Bentley and Nicholas Brandimarti, who have worked tirelessly as leaders and mentors for the rest of the leadership team

and year level. I have encouraged the boys to think about the journey not just the destination this year. Even as the exams hover they will appear but a blip on the radar when all the dust settles and the real world beckons. It will be a very different place from another vantage point outside the St Joseph’s walls. To the boys- As you step out the door remember your roots and what St. Joseph’s College has instilled in you, compassion for others, integrity to oneself and ones values and innovation to forge your destiny with all that is within you, Be happy with yourself, be safe and live lives that you can be proud of. Know that there will always be a place for you here. May you find mentors to support your life’s journey. Be curious about life and fill it seeking unlimited opportunities. May God bless each and every one of you, every day of your lives. Monika Ercoli - Year 12 Coordinator

Life is a journey not a destination. - Ralph Waldo Emerson On every journey you take, you face choices. At every fork in the road, you make a choice. It is those decisions that shape your life.

Mission Team 2014 for the Mission Team has meant a review and redevelopment of our Renewal program. In a Catholic school renewals are a distinctive opportunity for our students to experience growth in a personal and spiritual sense not often found in the classroom. 2014 has also meant an awesome opportunity for Year 8s to attend the Courage to Care exhibition at Deakin Waterfront which was focused on the need for everyday people to be “upstanders” against injustice to avoid evil such as the holocaust ever happening again. Therefore, our report this year comes from the students who participated in these events. We’d also like to thank all the staff who have been involved for their assistance on these days. Jo Hart, John Harmon, Vicki Mills, Claire Wrigley & Kylie Pretty

YEAR 7 RENEWAL

On 20 and 21 of August, the whole of Year 7 completed renewals over a two-day course. During the two days, we participated in activities that would help us learn and understand the meaning of the three College values; Compassion, Innovation and Integrity. With these words, we were split up into four groups; black, white, red and yellow. The forth activity was preparing for the liturgy at the end of the day. Not only was this day educational, but the school made it fun. Patrick Viccars & Zac Tucak - Year 7

“I am more YEAR 8 RENEWAL grateful for On renewals day the Year 8’s went to Simonds things in life Stadium for the day. The theme for the day was especially my ‘Courage to be’ and the main speaker, Travis family and where Dempsey, previously of the band The Living I come from.” End, was able to portray this through his own life experience. Five sessions later, we had - Year 12 student all experienced Mr Hale’s Extreme Fitness

Regime, Travis’ thumping beat lesson, Ms Hart & Mrs Mill’s journaling session inspired by mind opening quotes, Brother Damien’s demo on how to pick yourself back up, and finally, a bollard making class in which we made bollards representing ourselves and the theme using magazines as well as writing utensils. The highlight of the day was learning about Travis’ experiences as a troubled young child and how he Jackson Harlock was turned into what he is today. moved by meeting and “Courage to Be” instilled hearing the story of a Holocaust survivor.

a life message into everyone who attended and at the same time was an enjoyable experience. Matthew Zulumovski, Elliott Horan & Fletcher Wilson - Year 8

YEAR 10 RENEWAL

This year’s theme was “Who am I?” as the boys were encouraged to contemplate who they really are and who they want to be. Indigenous singer songwriter Scott Darlow kicked off the day with his energetic take on life. His message of FLUTE (Forgiveness, Love, Understanding, Tolerance and Empathy) struck a note with all the boys (pun intended!). The students participated in a physical challenge in the beautiful surrounds of Kardinia Park and a spirituality session in the Grandstand. Other sessions encouraged our young men to explore their personal identity through their favourite music. This was one of the few occasions when students were actually encouraged to bring their mobile phones!

YEAR 12

As always, the Renewals in Activities Week were a highlight on the Year 12 calendar. The boys spent three days together with their mates pondering the deeper issues in life and generally having a lot of fun. This year there were six themes to choose from, namely Challenge, Arts, Values, All about Me, Street Retreat and Resilience. Typical comments from the students included: “Helped my spiritual development.” “I feel closer to my mates and made some other mates as well.” “A nice break from the pressures of Year 12. I feel better equipped to deal with stress in future.” “I feel motivated to strive better in life and I am more grateful for things in life especially my family and where I come from” The most common suggestion for improvement was that the Renewals should go for longer!

COURAGE TO CARE

When the Year 8s went to Deakin University, we learnt about some key parts of the Holocaust and the modern/ Holocaust heroes.The highlight of the day was of course when the French Holocaust survivor Paul told us his story, the story about what he had to do to survive. Hamish McManus - Year 8

Year 7 Renewals - Levi Irving, Bradley Jepson, Jett Mitchell

Year 8 Renewals – Travis Dempsey got all the Year 8s feeling confident drumming together and to their own beat.

Community Service The Edmund Rice spirit is truly alive and well and most evident in the St Joseph’s community. The number of students and staff answering the call to assist with our community service programs has been amazing. Students from all year levels have been involved in various programs assisting those marginalised in our society. This year saw the further development of a compulsory community service program across the school. Year 7 students were required to complete two hours of community service. Many of the boys completed their hours at our breakfast programs. These programs run at Christ the King, St Thomas Aquinas and St Francis Xavier every week. The boys thoroughly enjoyed their time at the schools assisting with buttering toast, pouring milo and juice to ensure that students began the day with some food in their stomachs to help them learn. The boys have also been involved with community groups, helping at fetes and the refugee school holiday programs. Year 7s are to be commended for their wonderful efforts in completing well over 650 hours of community service this year. Year 8 students led an appeal to support the Geelong Food Relief Centre. The boys learnt that the centre assists 8000 families in the Geelong region each year with cheap affordable food. The whole school participated in a casual dress day for the donation of cans of food and cereal boxes. This successful community campaign led by Year 8 boys and their RE teachers, saw over a tonne of food donated. On a cold winters night 50 Year 7 & 8 boys participated in the SJC Winter Sleep Out to raise awareness and funds for homeless people in Geelong. They spent the majority of the night outside before coming into the gym in the early hours of the morning to sleep on a cardboard box. This was an invaluable experience for the boys for one night to feel what it is like to be homeless. Year 9 and Year 10 boys have been involved in school based community service. The Year 9 boys represented the College well at various primary schools on a Wednesday afternoon.The boys helped out in classrooms, in sport lessons and led lunchtime activities.The feedback from the primary schools was fantastic and the boys thoroughly enjoyed their experience.Year 10 community service saw the boys heading out to visit various nursing homes. At first this can be a rather daunting experience as the majority of boys have not been inside an aged care Winter sleepout

Refugee holiday program

facility. It does not take long for them to feel comfortable chatting with the residents and getting involved in activities, participating in carpet bowls, card games and bingo. This is an invaluable experience for our students as it takes them out of their comfort zone. The experience gives the boys a deeper understanding that older people in our community are to be respected and are valuable members in our society. The community service program at senior level requires the Year 11 boys to be involved in various activities during activities week and they are also required to complete 8 hours of community service over their senior years.Year 12 students were required to complete 5 hours of community service. Many boys have been involved in refugee tutoring, tree planting, breakfast programs, primary schools, refugee holiday programs, working in op shops, blood bank and assisting various community groups around Geelong.The senior students have been wonderful in their support of not only the St Joseph’s community service program but also many have organised their own community service and helped out numerous community groups. Year 12 boys were also involved in the Outreach Van Program on a Sunday night. They offered up their time to go out on the van to four different locations in Geelong to assist homeless people. This was a student led initiative in conjunction with Salvation Army. Senior Breakfast programs students completed over 2000 hours of community service this year, an outstanding effort! College staff have been most supportive in assisting a wide variety of community groups. Project 950 was introduced this year to encourage staff to be involved.The project encourages staff to complete 5 hours of community service over the year towards a combined effort of 950 hours. As a result, staff completed over 1500 hours, which is a true reflection of a staff that model the image of Edmund Rice. Many thanks to all of the organisations who partner with us to support the community service program. The program gives our students an opportunity to gain an understanding and appreciation of how different their lives are compared to others and develops in them an empathy that we believe will exist well beyond the school yard. Claire Wrigley - Community Service Coordinator

“The breakfast program is a great thing to do because you get the chance to help out the community. You make kids brekkie and they really appreciate it for what you do. It was very awarding to do something good for the community. I suggest you come and try it.” - Tom Hardiman,Year 7

The Outreach Van

ATSI Partnerships We would just like to share a couple of activities we have done this year as part of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Partnerships. To start the year we had a BBQ with our families, ATSI staff and students from the four Catholic schools at Sacred Heart College. A highlight was our first ‘Young Peoples Camp’ with Clonard, Sacred Heart and St Ignatius Colleges. The camp was a trip to Halls Gap where we learned some of the local stories of the Bunjilaka people. We also visited the Cultural Centre and a taste testing of crocodile, kangaroo, emu and turtle.We went on a few walks and visited Bunjil’s Cave. A great time was had by all. In Term 2 was the ‘Aspirations Day’ at Deakin University. Parents and students had a wonderful experience. Listening to Chris Sarra was inspirational and the fashion parade was amazing. We appreciated the opportunity to gather at Deakin and talk about our dreams. In Term 3 we had a visit to Korin Gamandji Institute, at Richmond Football Club organised by the Catholic Education Office. This was a program with different workshops set up for Catholic Secondary Schools ATSI students from Geelong and Melbourne. The workshops included singer and speaker Scott Darlow, Deadly Dancing, Fighting Fit and Speaker Sgt Rick Morris from Australian Defence. The theme for this year’s program was ATSI Games honouring Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Servicemen and women. We have gathered together as a group at lunch times, this term we are working on some bollards for the anniversary of the apology in February 2015. It’s been a great year for us all. - Kaleb Owen - Year 7, Susan Collins - Koorie Education Worker & Kylie Pretty - ATSI Coordinator

RECONCILITATION WEEK

Reconciliation Week activities started early this year with the Reconciliation Trophy football match on Wednesday 14 May. Halls Gap Camp This annual match between St Joseph’s and St Bernard’s Colleges highlights the need for Reconciliation in all spheres of life, including on the sporting field. Following a moving pregame ceremony the match was played in tremendous spirit with St Joseph’s holding on to the trophy following a hard fought victory.

Community service in the Tiwi Islands

Activities continued as we celebrated the diverse cultures and talents of our own Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students. The Reconciliation Assembly was a highlight with a traditional dance performed by our Yolongu indigenous students; Raven Marika, Dion Wunungmurra, Jerol Wunungmurra and Mabo Mununggurritj. Waadhi Conole played a piece by Hayden beautifully on his trumpet followed by guest speakers, from the Geelong One Fire Reconciliation group.

VISIT TO THE TIWI ISLANDS

On Wednesday 30 April, twelve Year 11 students embarked on a journey to the Tiwi islands. The purpose of our trip was to aid Xavier Catholic College students on the Bathurst Island by providing the children with a weekend of fun and exciting activities. As well as the Island experience, we were able to participate in multiple community service outings in Darwin. We kick-started our service efforts with the St. Vinnies sandwich van where we were able to meet and converse with the homeless community of Darwin. We handed out sandwiches, served beverages and shared stories with the new people we met. On Friday we flew over to Bathurst Island on two very small planes. Lance, from the school at Wurrumiyanga, picked us up and took us to the school where we were instantly greeted by the children. They were easier to talk to we had first anticipated. Out of the twelve of us, we were divided into 4 groups, and we were each assigned a night to cook. This was a challenge as we came to appreciate the high cost but small quantities of fresh food, fruit and vegetables available as compared to the inexpensive, and easily available, processed products we have. As the days went on we each developed relationships with children of various age groups. The children taught us more about their culture and what they are used to living on an island. When we left the island we all were very saddened by the fact that we would possibly never see these kids again, it was a real eye opener and it was well worth it. Throughout our journey we uncovered the meaning of reconciliation by giving up what we value the most to be able to share another cultural experience that completely differs from our own day to day lives. We’d like to thank Ms Goring, Mr Clohesy and Ms Hart for the time and effort they put into organising and accompanying us on this trip.

Curriculum CELEBRATING OUR TEACHING AND LEARNING PROGRAM

Schools are always busy places.You only need to wander the corridors, walk through the yard or visit before or after school hours to find that it is a hive of activity. Guest speakers, special programs, debating, musical rehearsal, art classes, the trade centre, sports practice… the list goes on. With nearly 1600 boys spread across two campuses there is always something interesting going on. The glue that holds all this together is the curriculum. One of the most exciting changes to occur has been the commencement of our Year 9 campus, Westcourt. For the first time, our students were not all on the same site. Our new campus saw the delivery of an exciting and challenging program designed specifically for Year 9 students. From the very first day when students walked into their vibrant and colourful classrooms, there was a feeling of belonging to a special community. Within the Westcourt program, exciting projects were developed within Challenge subjects such as DIY guitar, Planet Green, Adventure Race and Showtime.The advent of a separate campus also allowed students to create special programs that connected to their core studies such as a very moving ANZAC ceremony and display, the Amazing Race adventure and the Solo Experience (The Rite Journey). Our Year 9 students who are studying Chinese were also given the opportunity to participate in a State Government initiative of travelling to China to experience an immersion experience designed to prepare them for living and working in a globalised world. Eleven students participated in the Victorian Young Leaders to China program which involved one week of intensive language training; one week of visiting cultural sites and four weeks of studying in classes at different schools in Nanjing. It is particularly pleasing to report that one of these students, Liam Jelley, has been awarded The AFS Special Galatti Scholarship to study abroad next year. Liam will have the opportunity to deepen his language skills and appreciation of Chinese culture through a year-long immersion in China.

breadth to the array of subjects that we can offer, particularly to our Senior school students. This year we have offered new VET courses on site in Carbon Management, Building and Construction (Carpentry), Allied Health and Electro-technology. This has been a wonderful complement to other courses that we have been able to offer such as Furniture Making and Product Design and Technology. We were thrilled to see one of our VCE Systems Engineering students, Adam Lloyd, appear in The Age newspaper in recognition of his extraordinary work in developing a replica K-9. This year we have been reviewing our current Year 7 and 8 programs and developing new aims and vision for our junior school. Some exciting developments have begun which we will continue to build on for introduction in 2016. In particular, we have begun looking at the ways in which we design and implement curriculum and the role of technology in the execution of these programs all designed at creating 21st Century learners. As an offshoot to this we have recognised the need to address the learning spaces that our students occupy. As such, six junior classrooms have been refurbished with new tables, carpet wall tiles, coloured whiteboards and soft furnishings. Our teachers are engaged in ongoing professional learning both at the college and beyond. Our aim has been to offer sustained, peer based learning which has a strong mix of theoretical research and practical application. Some of the areas that we have looked at have included: the use of technology in the classroom; dealing with difficult students; modifying work for students with specific learning needs and the role of Literacy across the curriculum. We will continue this work in the new year. 2015 promises to be as busy and exciting as this year. Through the curriculum we hope our students become the best men that they can be by aiming high, developing their skills and talents and respecting and showing compassion for others in their community.

Another wonderful addition to the College has been the implementation of The Joseph Innovation and Trade Trading Centre. This wonderful facility has offered Young Leaders to China Program Year 7 Classroom Refurbishments

VCAL THE YEAR THAT WAS

Some of the significant partnerships made by VCAL students this year were with the Cottage by the Sea Queenscliff, Clonard College, RSPCA, Scope, Jamie Oliver Ministry of Food, Red Cross and Rough Edges Kings Cross. The Year 12 students joined forces with the Year 12 VCAL class from Clonard College and raised $4,500 for Cottage by the Sea through their inaugural Bowls n’ Beats event. The evening consisted of barefoot bowls and live music and was held at the East Geelong Bowls Club. The students presented the cheque to the Cottage by the Sea staff on a day visit where they joined the camp children for lunch and activities.

Throughout Term 3 the Year 12 students planned a Sydney trip. The focus of the trip was orienteering around the city and community service in Kings Cross through a partnership with St John’s Rough Edges program. Learning Outcomes across all four VCAL strands were met through the planning and participation in this trip. Students braved torrential downpours to successfully complete the orienteering task that took them from the city to Bondi and back again.

Sydney Airport

The Year 11s received their Scope Bronze Medallion in Working with People with Disabilities. As part of the certificate they attended Shannon Park Industries to work alongside people with disabilities. Students also conducted an accessibility audit on the buildings and grounds of SJC. The RSCPCA working with animals unit was a highlight of the Year 11 program. The students went on an excursion to the

RSPCA farm in Burwood. Upon their return to school some students formed a partnership with Geelong Animal Welfare Society (GAWS) and used their gardening skills to beautify their grounds, including the meet and greet area where families get to know the animals they are looking at adopting. The Structured Workplace Learning placement that students undertake on Thursdays and Fridays gives students the opportunity to enhance skill development, apply practical industry knowledge and meet units of competency for their VCAL studies. Many students have secured apprenticeships through their work placements, making this a vital component of SJC’s VCAL studies. We are very grateful for the employers who have hosted a VCAL student throughout this year. VCAL is a pathway into apprenticeships, traineeships, work and further study at TAFE. On behalf of all your teachers throughout your years at SJC we wish all the VCAL students who are leaving us the best of luck as they embark on their future endeavours. Thank you to the VCAL teachers and all College staff for your commitment to working with the students to ensure their academic and wellbeing needs are met.

AWARDS

Congratulations to 2013 Graduate Jake Cobb for receiving The Australian Vocational Student Prize for demonstrating exceptional skill, commitment and achievement while undertaking an Australian School-based Apprenticeship (ASbA) in Bricklaying as part of his senior secondary studies. Jake received a certificate and a cash prize of $2,000. Jake was an outstanding student and VCAL Leader and we congratulate him on receiving this recognition of his hard work and dedication. He is currently a first year apprentice with K & C McFarlane Bricklaying and we wish him success and happiness in his future endeavours. - Leah Irving - VCAL Coordinator This is what Jake had to say about his School Based Apprenticeship: I chose bricklaying because it is hands on and it would let me work outdoors. Right from the start I loved it. So Year 10 & 11, I did Cert II in Bricklaying and Blocklaying. In Year 11 I did VCAL and as a part of that I had to get a Structured Work Placement every Friday. I got work with Keith & Cain McFarlane and I loved it. So I decided to ask if I can do a School Based Apprenticeship with McFarlane Bricklaying. Every day I work I learn new skills and have different experiences and what I learn helps with the work at VET. Doing a VET and School Based Apprenticeship has helped me learn life skills, leadership, time management and discipline and that helps with challenges in my life and sport. I am very happy that I did VET, VCAL and my School Based Apprenticeship. Jake Cobb - 2013 Graduate

VCAL VCAL ACHIEVEMENT AWARD

I was very proud to attend a ceremony at Federation Square, Melbourne to accept an award for the students’ efforts in raising money and awareness for women’s cancers through the Girls Night In Auction Night held in October, 2013. Our project was recognised as the best Integrated Project across the State. Congratulations to all the staff, students and parents involved and a big thank you to all the school community members who supported this initiative between 2011 and 2013. - Leah Irving - VCAL Coordinator

YEAR 12 PHOTOGRAPHY

We were very fortunate to have professional photographer Roza Marciniak come into our class and deliver a 10 week photography course. My passion is 4 wheel driving. My family is heavily involved in 4wdriving, we regularly head out bush exploring this amazing country that we live in. When I was told that our photos were to be based on one of our passions I immediately chose 4wdriving as my topic. Here is a photo I took of our work Nissan GU Patrol, taken in the Avoca area of the Pyrenees National Park Victoria.

our local area. We started the day at 9:30. The event took us most of the day to complete. Sheridan Stack and Chris Phelan both ran the whole way and made it back to school in 2 hours and 2 hours, 20 minutes respectively. An amazing achievement. Everyone made it back in time for the BBQ.The final group completed the course in 4 hours, 20 minutes.We all got to sit back have some of Mr Trupkovic’s famous chevape rolls and chat about the day. It was a 22km course with most of it on an uphill slope with an annoying headwind, but that didn’t stop anyone from having a crack. We managed to raise over $1,400 and we donated these funds to Minerva Community Services in the form of movie and hair vouchers. Minerva offers specialist support for women and children in the Barwon area who have experienced family/domestic violence. Thank you to the staff at Hot House Hairdressing for assisting us with providing hair and beauty vouchers to some needy Mums and to Village Cinemas for a great deal on movie gift cards for teens who are being supported by Minerva. Many thanks to all the family members and staff who sponsored us on our walk. Sean Whelan

WALK FOR CHANGE

On 18 October the VCAL students walked (a few ran!) from Drysdale to Joeys along the Bellarine Rail Trail, to raise money and awareness for homelessness in the Geelong region. The preparation for the event really opened our eyes to homelessness in Geelong. We participated in an e-classroom with The Big Issue and investigated causes and responses to homelessness in Year 12’s Last Day

Ad Alta The Ad Alta boys started the year quietly and were apprehensive as to what the year would hold for them. We quickly settled in with some of the students very keen to pursue a career in the conservation/ horticulture industry. We were very lucky again with three boys completing a School Based Apprenticeship in Horticulture with Greening Australia. The boys all completed 3 work experience and several other boys were offered jobs or apprenticeships due to their commitment and work ethic on the job. Well done gentlemen. The boys embarked on a new subject, Careers which was both exciting and helpful under the guidance of Mr Peter O’Connor. They developed great skills and knowledge in this area and have complied a very impressive resume for themselves. Included in the resume are certificates in safe@work modules, Hospitality certificates in Safe Food Handling and a Level 1 Barista certificate. The boys have developed their skills on the coffee machine and the “VcafA” coffee shop is booming with the help from the VCAL boys. They have worked on some very interesting stools, seats, tables etc for the coffee shop. The LED lamps the boys made in semester one were equally fantastic and original. The boys could hardly wait to take them home to use. The students also participated in a course with Food Technology. They discovered how to cook a wide variety of meals with great flair. More importantly perhaps they also learnt safe food handling and how to cook nutritious budget meals instead of buying fast food. I would like to thank Leanne Rivett for her endless patience and help she has given to the boys. Another highlight I think has probably been the Community Based Religious Education program. Mr John Monagle has had the boys out helping the less fortunate in many locations in Geelong. They were able to lend a hand at the Food

Bank, some Primary schools and also boneseeding locally. The boys have displayed over the year a real growth in maturity and shown themselves to be capable more than ever to enter the workforce or to continue their studies here at St Joseph’s. There were many activities and excursions organised by the students for the students which is a real credit to them. We also got behind Ms Pretty and raised much needed funds for the Rory Wilson appeal. The excursion to the Port of Geelong Authority was highlight for many of the boys. The year has been challenging to us all, teachers and students alike but I genuinely feel that we have all learnt a lot from each other and the experience of being part of Ad Alta 2014. Lastly I would like to thank Trish our wonderful teacher aid who made my work so much easier. Simon Cahir - Coordinator In Ad Alta we have been set multiple task and projects to work on. In Term 1 and 2 we worked on Herb Boxes and LED lighting which were both successful, both in building and designing by everyone. - Luke Jennings Coming into Ad Alta I didn’t know what to expect I knew it would be great fun learn thing I wouldn’t in other class it has been a great experience - Jake Peachey Throughout the semester we have volunteered our time at the Geelong Food Relief centre where we have helped a charity and see the valuable work they do for the greater Geelong Community. I have enjoyed Ad Alta very much this semester and I have learned a lot about working hard and keeping on task. In the future the Ad Alta course I have done will help me work to the best of my ability and to try my hardest. - Joseph Giacomazzo

VET 2014 started with a bang! The Joseph Innovation Trade Training Centre was officially opened with over 240 students enrolled in VET at the College. I was set for a very busy year. Here at St Joseph’s we acknowledge that not every student learns in the same way and this is why we offer VET certificates as part of our curriculum. I have found VET is a great way to engage our boys in learning as it provides a “fun” and “hands on” approach. Being in an adult learning environment allows each boy to take responsibility for their own studies and teaches them the importance of hard work. Our boys were able to choose from over 25 VET courses across the Geelong region to undertake as part of their senior studies in 2014. With the opening of the Joseph Innovation Trade Training Centre we were able to offer 7 courses on – site at the College which included Carpentry, Plumbing, Electrotechnology, Carbon Management, Allied Health, Hospitality and Sport & Recreation. As a result of offering these courses we had 65% of students completing their VET studies on–site. Students were also lucky enough to be able to attend industry specific excursions as a part of their VET studies this year. The VET Electrotechnology class attended the Newport Power Station to receive an in depth tour of the facility and experience the large variety of careers that are related to the industry. The students had to wear hard hats, hearing protection and safety glasses whilst being escorted around the massive facility which allowed them to understand the importance of OH&S and what is expected from industry.

held with local employers in a field that is directly related to each students area of VET study. I have found these placements very beneficial for the boys as it allows them to apply the skills learnt in VET to the “Real World” and also helps the boys to become more “Job Ready” for their future pathways after St Joseph’s. School Based Apprenticeship/Traineeship numbers have continued to rise in 2014. Here at St Joseph’s we currently have 43 students enrolled in school based traineeships in fields such as Community Services, Education Support, Traditional Trades and Information Technology. Boys who undertake a School Based Apprenticeship/ Traineeship are enrolled in a nationally recognised Certificate II or III level qualification whilst attending school. The boys are able to use this qualification to gain credit towards their VCE or VCAL studies. I have found that the boys who are currently participating in school based apprenticeships/traineeships are highly sought after by local employers when they finish their schooling. They have a great reputation for being well presented and hardworking and this is a real credit to them. Overall 2014 has been a great year for VET, The Joseph Innovation Trade Training Centre has given our school an edge in the VET market and now allows us to offer our students high level training which can be used in their future careers. The boys are extremely enthusiastic about their studies and can’t wipe the smiles off their faces every time they step foot in this state of the art facility. St Joseph’s College operates a great VET program and I am very excited to see what future years will bring. Jarrod Gore - VET Coordinator

Some VET certificates allow students the opportunity to have a “work placement”. The placement is held for one day a week or in the holidays. Placements are generally Allied Health

Careers CAREERS BLOG REACHES NEW HEIGHTS

The St Josephs Careers Blog is a great place for students and their families to access a range of resources and information about careers, the labour market, job preparation, work experience, higher education, resume writing, newsletters and much more. It can be easily found online. The Careers Blog also features a Flag Counter which records page visits as well as which country the user is from. Since October last year, when this article was written, the Careers Blog has been viewed over 16,000 times, by people from 67 countries!

CAREER’S WEEK 2014

During Careers Week, students were prompted to begin preparing for their future pathway at school and to think about decisions that they will need to make that will shape their future. This year, students were able to attend two presentations from 12 career industry areas. These included Victoria Police, an Architect, Victorian Fitness Academy, a Graphic Designer, Information Technology, Business Management and Trades (CAT), Master Builders careers, CFA, Defence Forces, an Electrician, a Lawyer/DJ and a Chartered Accoutant. Students also undertook the Careers Voyage Program which provides students with up to 40 possible career choices based on a survey of their interests, likes and dislikes.

WORK EXPERIENCE WEEK MAY 2014

The Work Experience week was held during the week of 5 May. Over 250 students from Year 10 descended upon workplaces in Geelong and the greater region, and further afield in Melbourne. Work places included the Geelong Magistrates Court, many Community service primary and and work experience secondary in one! Ad Alta boys schools, the visit the CFA

Geelong Cats Football club, large farming operations in regionalVictoria and NSW, building and construction sites, the Hawthorn Football Club, Victoria Police, graphic design and architectural firms, the Melbourne Storm, and many more. Many parents and old Collegians also offered work experience places for the boys. Without the support of local and regional businesses, families and the ‘old boys’ network, the work experience program would not be viable. To everyone who supported theYear 10 students with placements- thank you.Your support provides the boys with a very important career development opportunity that will help them to make informed decisions about their futures. Work experience also allows students to learn more about themselves as well as how others see them. The feedback from employers is vital to this process and is appreciated by teachers, parents and students. Once again, the students represented the College magnificently. Well done boys!

MY CAREER MATCH – YEAR 9

As part of work experience preparation, Year 9 students undertook career testing using My Career Match.This program provided students with a Career Report and workbook which included: • How to choose a career that’s right for them • A personality analysis and summary of a their natural strengths • A list of over 50 jobs that match who they are and what they’d be good at (to help select future work experience placement) • Live links to the My Future website to research each job listed • Insights into work-related strengths & ideal work environment • Qualities they would bring to a job and how to make a difference My Career Match will assist students in not only their career development but in other areas such as choosing subjects and pathways in senior school.

GRAND PRIX EXCURSION

Once again, St Joseph’s College attended the Grand Prix event this year. This is a great opportunity to see the V8 and Formula One cars in action, and also to participate in an industry presentation and expo. This is an annual excursion open to students in Years 9-12. Next year, students will also be invited to attend the Avalon Airshow and Aviation and Defence Career Exhibition. Future career excursions will be advertised on the Careers Blog.

ALCOA FUTURE LEADERS OF INDUSTRY PROGRAM

Sammy Rotiroti and Isaac Travers-Hucker were selected to participate in the Alcoa Future Leaders of Industry Program. After completing the program both Sam and Isaac undertook further work experience to broaden their career development. Sam completed a week of work experience at Rip Curl and Isaac undertook his placement at Backwell IXL in South Geelong. Karen Shum - Careers Coordinator

Education Learning Support “Diversity is not about how we differ. Diversity is about embracing one another’s uniqueness” - Ola Joseph It’s been a huge year across the two campuses for the Learning Support team with more than 80 students this year funded through the Catholic Education Office for learning support. As well as those students, at least 100 others fall just outside the funding criteria but are, nonetheless, ‘diverse learners’ and grateful for support. Some need a little, others a lot but, from the youngest to the most senior, all have contributed to the fabric of SJC making it a richer, more accepting place, able to embrace the individual gifts in everyone. In the spirit of Edmund Rice’s tradition of tolerance and respect for all students, the Learning Support team, which includes 16 teacher aides, aims to develop an environment to allow all students to reach their potential. In collaboration with the broader teaching staff, we aim to provide a safe, supportive and engaging academic environment to promote life-long learning. We assist students through classroom intervention programs and aim to provide a caring and supportive environment that allows each student to take his place within the school and beyond. In doing so we become very close to “our boys”. They are all special to us and one in particular, Brennan Houghton, stole our hearts with his courage and quiet determination. Brennan lost his six-year battle with cancer in February after being part of the graduating class of 2013. The team will be forever grateful for the time we shared with Brennan and our thoughts and prayers continue to be with his family. In 2014 we continued the popular horse riding program through RDA Barwon Centre in Wallington. A small group of students enjoyed fortnightly two-hour sessions with the horses supported by our own equestrian expert Raels. As well, our breakfast clubs for year 7s expanded to offer a little extra guidance for students needing literacy support. Many thanks to Kathy and Ashlee for the early starts. More senior students continued to gain valuable work experience through the Food Skil 2 & 5 Fresh Food Shop in Labuan Square, Norlane, as part of their specially tailored education program developed by Kylie.

Sharing some lunch with the birds!

Our sincere thanks goes to the Josephines for their invaluable financial support and their continued interest in our programs. Funds from the Josephines enabled us to purchase equipment to support the learning for our students with additional needs. As we look ahead to the coming year, we welcome 20 year 7 students into our growing area. In 2015, exciting plans to expand the learning support area will take shape with purpose-built meeting areas, breakout rooms and offices. We said goodbye to our valued team member Carolyn Dodds, who left to pursue a career in psychology and counselling after eight years at St Joseph’s. We wish her well. Special thanks also to Imogen Brough, who added her ‘‘celebrity’’ touch to our area full time during Term 3. And to our boys who graduate with the Class of 2014. We thank you for the many wonderful memories you have given us and wish you the very best as you continue on your journey. Make sure you drop in and see us when you get the chance. - From the Learning Support Team “Learning Support at St Joseph’s College have supported me during my six years here. I have learned a lot from the teachers with the support of the ESO and I will miss the people around the school. I have made new friends each year and I feel confident about moving on. Thank you to all the teachers and The Education Office that have supported me from Year 7 to Year 12.” - Matt, Year 12 (Graduating Class 2014)

“Learning Support helped me get my head straight when working on extremely hard work. They help when you have got a problem or are having a terrible day. They help you find humour in your work when there seems like there is none. And overall they help me deal with all the troubles of school.” - Pat - Year 9 ESO staff fun and games!

Humanities Humanities in 2014 has again offered some challenging and exciting opportunities for students to explore History, Geography and Civics and Commerce. Students and teachers have been working on a wide range of assessment that includes Fieldwork, excursion opportunities and state wide competitions to engage and encourage learning. The following comments come from various students in a range of classes and highlight the diverse subjects offered through the Humanities programmes. Enjoy! Michelle Bishop - Humanities Domain Leader

AUSTRALIAN GEOGRAPHY COMPETITION

Students from Year 10 took part in the 20th annual Australian Geography Competition this year. Approximately 70,000 students from all around Australia have entered the Competition, which is organised by the Australian Geography Teachers’ Association and the Royal Geographical Society of Queensland. Competition coordinator Bernard Fitzpatrick said that the Competition gave teachers an opportunity to highlight geography in their schools. “Geography is a vital subject that all young people should study,” said Mr Fitzpatrick.“It helps students understand the world around them, and how people and environments are interconnected.” “With schools in many parts of Australia starting to implement the new national geography curriculum this year, it’s an exciting time to be involved in geographical education, and the Competition plays its part in this,” said Mr. Fitzpatrick 25 Year 10 students participated in the competition. The following boys did particularly well.

Intermediate Section: Dexter Hare-Zen: Credit Isaac McMahon: Credit (Top third) Ben Mullins: Credit Jordan van Arend: Credit Lachlan Sim: Distinction (top 20% ) Joseph McMahon: High Distinction (top 3%) Senior Section: Spiro Alesios: Credit (top 20% ) Blake Robinson: Distinction (top 15% )

YEAR 10 TRIP TO THE HOLOCAUST MUSEUM IN MELBOURNE On 21 May, Mrs Rowland’s Year 10 history class went to the Jewish Holocaust Centre in Melbourne. We arrived at 10:00am and we went inside the museum. When we got inside, we were greeted by a young relative of a Holocaust survivor who talked to us about how it was for her family to have gone through the Holocaust. Later, a Holocaust survivor met us and told us her story; she was a teenager when she was sent to a concentration camp and was forced onto a train to the Majdanek extermination camp, where she risked her life and escaped to live on and tell her story. Her experiences really made us feel for the Jewish people, and we truly got to recognize just how much suffering and pain these people had to go through in order to save themselves. The holocaust museum really changed the way we think as historians and was really an eye-opening experience. Ayrton Ganino

English BOY KILLER ESCAPES DEATH SENTENCE

A SHOCKING VERDICT at the County Courthouse has drawn controversy after a teenage defendant accused of patricide walked free. Martin King, 16, was charged with the stabbing murder of his father, Luther King, in their Harlem flat on Wednesday. Neighbours reported seeing Mr King fleeing the scene after hearing a scream moments earlier. Luther’s body was discovered with a stab wound to the chest on the floor at approximately 9:42 PM. The cause of death was haemorrhaging of the heart and heavy blood loss, according to the coroner. Evidence began building up when two eye witnesses came forward. 51-year-old Queenie Jackson and 73-year-old Benjamin Woodrow both gave testimonies to the night of the murder, which occurred in a slum neighbourhood known for turning out dangerous criminals. Found at the scene of the murder was a 10-inch switchblade, reported to be the exact same make as a weapon owned by Mr King. King claimed the knife fell through a hole in his pocket on the way to the Harlem Street Cinema. King had several convictions prior to the trial. At age 10, he appeared in the Children’s Court for attempting to bludgeon a teacher with a rock. Four years later, he was sentenced to a year in Reform School for grand theft auto. In 1951, he was arrested for mugging. And in recent years, a spate of assault charges has shadowed the troubled youth through adolescence. Police say he is a known knife fighter in the area, and that the murder charge does not come as much of a surprise. All things considered, it was all but certain the jury would turn out a guilty verdict. A statement from one of the jurors, who has chosen to remain anonymous, described the case as a “sure thing”. The juror proceeded to talk about an upcoming baseball game the night of the trial. Another juror added, “Dirty, rotten kids. You work your life out, and for what?” He proceeded to take a deep breath, as if smelling the summer air, then added with a mean-spirited grin, “I can practically smell the sizzling flesh!” Instead, all twelve jurors voted “not guilty” in the final ballot, making the verdict decidedly not guilty. It was indeed a unanimous vote – just not the kind people were expecting. One of the jurors released a more telling statement about the proceedings. “A tragedy,” he lamented, with a sad shake of the head. “An absolute tragedy. I come to America seeking peace and democracy – and instead I find a courtroom seething with prejudice and hate.” “It’s a miracle it didn’t come to blows,” he exclaimed. “Thank God logic and reason prevailed.” The juror proceeds to check an exquisite gold watch. “Ah, it’s time to go home,” he says. “And by home I mean my native Germany. This country’s people are far too – what is the word – bigoted? Yes, too bigoted for my liking.” King will be released from police custody this Thursday. Meanwhile, some are calling for a re-trial, while others suspect leniency due to the boy’s unfortunate upbringing. Judge Alexander Westgate, who presided over the case, declined to offer a statement about the verdict. However, a third juror had this to say about the proceedings: “Boy, I don’t know. It was a tough one. I suppose he could be guilty or not guilty. Say, what do you think of this sketch? It’s part of a promotional ad for Rice Puffs cereal.” The juror proceeds to go into great detail about

his corporate advertising business. “Now on a billboard near you!” he beams proudly. Indeed, we can never know for sure exactly what happened in the courtroom, but from the sounds of it there were twelve very angry men! Sebastian Starcevic - Year 10

MY TOWN IS THE BEST PLACE TO LIVE

After living in Geelong for 13 years, I feel that Geelong is no doubt a fantastic place to live for kids and adults. Geelong’s lifestyle gives its residents a warm and fuzzy feeling whenever they wake up in the morning.The low crime rate in Geelong combined with the fantastic infrastructure and great location, makes my town somewhere not to miss. The low crime rate in Geelong has been something we have always valued. Statistics state that 98.7% of people in Geelong feel safe walking during the day (Community Indicators Victoria 2011). This number is one of the highest in Victoria! Who wouldn’t love the safety of being a citizen of Geelong? And what sought of person enjoys looking behind there back every few minutes? Our crime rate not only gives our city a sense of kindness and ease, but also encourages our council to build lots of new and needed infrastructure. The City of Greater Geelong has fantastic infrastructure.When it comes to shopping, there’s no need to leave Geelong; the range is a good as anywhere. The size of the retail sector in Geelong is reflected in the $2.4 billion spent annually by Geelong’s residents. The reasonably new Westfield also represents an investment of $200 million and includes more than 170 outlets. But shops aren’t all Geelong has to offer. Our top quality schools offer families a huge range of 58 schools to pick from. Because of this vast amount of choices, there is almost always a school within walking distance. The perfect size of Geelong also means that parents can forget worrying about their children’s safety on the way to and from school; there are roughly 18 times less cars in Geelong than there are in Melbourne (Community Profile 2011)! I strongly believe the best thing about Geelong is its size and location. Geelong’s location makes it so easy for families to get around. Only 20 minutes from anywhere else, for beach lovers, there is always the option of shooting down to world class beaches after school or work.Within the city there are beautiful parks, the botanic gardens, the river and the waterfront. Geelong size also means tourists can see everything in one day. Rather than having to spend multiple days running around Melbourne. Not only is our size convenient, but it also allows people who call Geelong home to have a peaceful night in. Without of course, any of the loud noises and lights that the majority of Melbournians

English have to experience. For families, tourists and just the average citizens, life couldn’t get any easier. Geelong is no doubt one of the best places in Victoria. And it’s not just me who thinks so. Almost 80% of our residents say they are happy or very happy with their lives (Community Indicators Victoria 2011). So have a think to yourself. Are you really happy with your life? Do you wake up in morning, loving where you live? If not, come to Geelong and experience the difference. - Charlie Roache

WHY GEELONG IS A GREAT PLACE TO LIVE

I strongly believe that Geelong is a great place to live, I have grown up in Geelong and I believe it’s a great place to live because it’s a quick drive to the beaches, it’s only an hour away from Melbourne, and also it is a peaceful place to live with a lot of friendly people. Firstly, Geelong is close to a lot of beaches most beaches are a 15 to 20 minute drive. At the beach there is a lot of things to do such as surf, swim, play beach cricket, go for a walk or just spend a relaxing day out with your family or friends. And also there is a famous beach called Bells beach it is only about a 25 minute drive, Bells beach is popular because each year they hold a surfing comp called rip curl pro its where all the best surfers compete, it’s a great day out so if you’re not doing anything get down and cheer your favourite supporters on. Secondly, Geelong is a good size, Geelong is pretty big and a lot of space to live. Also in Geelong the is sporting events such as the Geelong cats which is down at kardina park, there is the supercats which is a basketball team, this is a really good place for if you want to have a party or spend a night out with friends. Then there is Iron man which is sometimes down at eastern beach. Thirdly, Melbourne is only an hour away from Geelong there a lot of things to do you can go to the MCG or you and your friends could go to Melbourne for a day and go shopping or go to a café. Do you hate getting stuck in traffic? Well they ran trains from Geelong to Melbourne, so you can catch a train and not worry about getting stuck in traffic. In conclusion, Geelong is a great place to live it’s a beautiful city with lots of friendly people, Geelong is close to the surf coast and is only an hour away from Melbourne. This is way I strongly believe Geelong it the best place to live. - Sam Bourke

HERO SPEECH - MY AUNTY CHAGAI GUM MALONG

Hello teachers and class today I will be talking to you about my aunty Chagai Gum Malong. I definitely believe that she is a hero in my eyes. My aunty has the heroic qualities of being a strong hearted, a caring and an honest person. She is an

inspiration to me and my family she cares about her family and her people the people of south Sudan. Aunty Chagai, is the youngest of my mum’s family, of roughly 9 siblings. She came to Australia in 2002 as a refugee with eight children. Chagai hated to see people of her country living in poverty and she wanted to make a difference and one of her quotes were “Why is this happening, what can be done to make a difference, I’m sick to always see people struggling, I hate to see people suffering. Hope is not an answer, we need to do something about the poverty in order to end it”. Chagai gave up her time by going to south Sudan and help supply food and water to the people that are living in poverty. Although she has had tough times throughout her life she is honest expresses her feelings to her friends and family. In 2011, together with a close network of women Chagai established the non-profit organisation Geelong and South Sudan (Agouk) community coming together. She is also studying a Bachelor of social work at Deakin University. At times she was willing to leave her family to help others in need so therefore that shows she is a caring but also a strong hearted independent women. She went to a village in south Sudan where the people lived in poverty. As quoted ‘So far we were able to do three water wells in three villages in Sudan. People of these villages now have enough water to drink, shower, wash and grow crops. The most important thing is that women and girls do not have to walk for five or more hours to get water so girls have time to go to school. I am still on my journey to do more this year.’ Chagai has been through tough times and not having her husband with her, Chagai kept with a strong and continued her studies. Chagai was inspired to continue the studies of community welfare so therefore this proves she is a strong hearted independent women. In 2014 Chagai graduated from her studies and achieved her goal of getting a diploma. Chagai my aunty is one of my inspirations. My aunty has the qualities to adapt and willing to help others in need but also she has the qualities of an independent woman. - Manywon Thiep, 7I

THE ANZAC SPIRIT Soldiers who’ve gone And soldiers who’ve came Soldiers who battled To uphold the Aussie name Soldiers who lived And died for our honour Soldiers who were there For one another Soldiers who went off Without any say Soldiers who are still missed Here everyday Soldiers who witnessed Terrible blood and gore From Gallipoli, to Vietnam To the Afghanistan war

For these are the qualities We all should seek They still shine today Every day of the week Courage, Integrity Loyalty and Respect These ANZAC Spirit qualities We all still expect But there are still many ways We see the spirit of the ANZACs From helping an old lady To having your best friend’s back For all that they went through We can easily repay them By showing ANZAC Spirit - Jackson Conway, Year 9

Arts We would like to thank the Arts Domain staff who worked professionally to enable the students to build on their skill levels. Regular after school and lunchtime classes are held. Many senior students regularly take advantage of the opportunity to extend their studio experience or practice. This year we have continued to focus on improving student literacy skills in the arts. Integrating changes into their curriculum in order to improve learning outcomes in arts theory. We hope you enjoy the following pages. Anne Condon & Rebecca Spark - Arts Domain Leaders

YEAR 7 ART & DESIGN Throughout 2014 the Arts Domain have continued to energize the school environment. The Arts at St Joseph’s College is viewed as self-expression, emotional therapy, spirituality, cultural connection, a discipline, and/or an essential part of being human. Comprised of the subject areas of Art, Visual Communication Design, Media, Drama and Music has continued to work collaboratively, with a focus on extending student experience in a range of mediums. The level of skill development can be seen here in the Arts pages and highlights the depth of talent within our student body. Hayden Spiller Year 8

This semester we have been doing art classes. I came into the subject thinking that drawing was the only thing to do with art. But now as we get toward the end of the year, I have discovered a whole new world of art. We have learnt about drawing, colour, painting, and printmaking. I have enjoyed learning new ways of expressing emotions and feelings in an artistic way. Brad Edwards - 7B

8 ARTS (MEDIA) 2014

Media is one of the enjoyable subjects to attend.You experience new activities consisting of learning about film techniques and social media. The most enjoyable part of media we have experienced is watching the original Die Hard movie and analysing the film. The subject is all about coming out of your bubble and learning about the outside world of Media. Jordan Bradaric & Mark Demo - Year 8

YEAR 9 VISUAL ARTS DESIGNS OF THE 21ST CENTURY

In Designs of the 21st Century, one of the major assignments we did was to design and create a model of a housing pod or a 3D model of our pod in Google Sketch Up. To reach the final

Arts model, we had to first learn how to draw and measure a detailed orthogonal drawing. This lead into the design and creation of our floor plan that we would later use to plan our model. Our models and design folios were showcased at the Westcourt Expo where the parents would see our work. I think the most important thing I learned was how to Design a model in Google Sketch Up as it is a difficult process especially when starting out. I enjoyed the whole unit, being able to draw and design different things was a plus on top of the model making and 3D drawing. Brandon Stokes – Year 9

KICK START - WESTCOURT

Kick start is a challenge subject focused on art. In this subject we studied a range of different styles of art.This included pen & ink, where you used a pen applied with some water and colour to give a smudge like image. Op art, which was a freestyle optical illusion drawing activity. Photography, when we focused on vantage points and rule of thirds. Shorts movies, teaching us about perception. As well as stencil art which required us to plan out a stencil and use spray paint to present it on a canvas with a multi-media background. Most of this art required the design process which was a series of steps to follow to end up with the finished product. At the end of the first semester, Westcourt presented an Exhibition to display what each class had been working on. Half of The kick start class made life sized cut outs of super heroes and villains out of plywood and used paint for colour. While the other half of the class made a spray paint mixed media graffiti Mural. Austin Perrott – Year 9

BRAND NEW UNLIMITED WESTCOURT

Brand new unlimited is an art class that uses the artistic, creative flair of students and follows the design process. In this class we explored screen printing on T-shirts and the art of advertising through brands to meet our required target audience.Throughout the semester we filled in journal entries to keep track of our planning that contributed towards our final product. Earlier during the semester the class took an excursion into Westfield to browse swing-tags to give us an idea of how we might design our own. We also undertook a group project to create a promotional logo to advertise the walk for change group that were screen printed on T-shirts. Joshua Forsyth – Year 9

YEAR 9 PHOTOGRAPHY

This year in photography was very fun and filled with many snaps to remember. Many things were completed during the course of the subject. I completed a folio of photos, went on a trip to Melbourne and completed an art movement and mixed media task.The folio of photographs was collection of images that were taken throughout the subject with annotations accompanying the photos. We took part in a photographic excursion to Melbourne visit to Hosier lane, federation square, the botanical gardens and an art exhibition. This trip gave us an opportunity to take interesting photographs and Sean Bindokas - Year 7

Arts to visit a photographic exhibition to learn about artists and see the different ways photos can be displayed. This trip to Melbourne led in to our art movement and mixed media tasks. With the art moment task we researched a particular art movement, such as baroque, cubism and pop art, before creating our own image that reflected that style of art. Through out the semester many things were learned, including how to take better photos and use editing software to enhance the images. I enjoyed been able to take photos as it helped me to understand how to take creative photos and something different to normal snap shots. James Dillon – Year 9

YEAR 10 ARTS (PHOTOGRAPHY)

In Year 10 Photography this semester, we completed four tasks which helped me gain more experience in a hobby I enjoy. Perfect for students who love to think creatively, Year 10 Photography was engaging and enjoyable. If it was learning about the basic camera rules or learning about various techniques (rule of thirds, art elements, panoramas etc), class was always looked forward to. The semester consisted of both digital and analogue tasks where we brainstormed, trialled and produced a final product. The class was fun and relieving on a Friday afternoon and I’m looking forward to photography in the future. - Nathan Clark

10 FOLIO PRESENTATION

This semester in Folio Presentation, we have learned about how to further our design skills through developing a professional style design folio. Our focus was designing a café and we have developed the branding, floor plan and have created an architectural model of our cafes. This has been a great way to see how a folio works in a larger scale and a larger project which will contribute to our understanding of real world design. I would recommend this unit particularly if you are planning to do Visual Communication design in VCE. - Connor Blackwell, 10B

VISUAL COMMUNICATION DESIGN 10 MERCHANDISING AND BRANDING

Visual Communication Merchandising and Branding is an excellent subject to learn and apply skills through design. Visual Communication Design offers a wide range of artistry through logo, product and packaging design. This class renders a broad range of dexterity to further expand your craftsmanship that would be greatly improved through VCE Visual Communication Design. William McDonald & Donald Conway - Year 10

YEAR 10 MEDIA

In Term 3 in Year 10 Media, we studied both the original 1960 Psycho and the 1998 remake of Psycho. We completed an assignment on the films, analysing the similarities and differences between them, and also what the films did well and what they didn’t do so well. Currently, we are in the process of planning a short film, which involves drawing up a storyboard, writing a script, filming, and editing. Skills that we’ve learnt have included scene analysis, and filming techniques. As someone who enjoys watching movies, this topic has been very enjoyable as class will often

Arts involve watching a short film. Whether it’s your intention to become serious in the entertainment industry, whether that be film, TV or radio, or if you just enjoy watching films, choosing to study Year 10 Media will be a decision you won’t regret. - Angus McMahon, Year 10

YEAR 10 PHOTOGRAPHY

I have enjoyed taking part in Mrs. Condon’s photography class, as I learnt new approaches and began to understand what aspects create a well composed photographic image. As we moved from ‘Telling a Story’ through photography, to Analogue Photography and then Still Life Photography, I was taught that there are many techniques that are used in different genres of photography. While learning about Analogue Photography, our class was introduced to the Dark Room, where we were taught how to correctly use chemicals to process an image. We went on an excursion to Buckley Falls, where we had the opportunity to capture images to develop in the darkroom. Photography was one of my most valuable and exciting class for me in 2014. - Paddy Rush, Year 10

UNIT 1&2 MEDIA

This was our first time doing Media. We honestly went in to it thinking we would spend the entire year watching movies, we didn’t, but we weren’t disappointed. In Media we learnt about the codes and conventions of media forms such as film and television, media producers and Australian media organisations and how they are integral to Australian life, both positively and negatively. Through this we explored how past media technologies and new media technologies have had an effect on the way we live today. One of the things that helped us gain a better understanding of the industry was going on Matt Henkel an excursion to see the live recording of popular Year 10 Visual Communication television show ‘The Project’. A highlight of the year was the creation of a short film, ‘Wing It’, Design Daniel Defina - Year 10 Visual Communication Design

YEAR 10 VISUAL COMMUNICATION DESIGN This year in Vis Com we have completed three main tasks such as Zodiac Symbols, a food or drink label and an international fragrance. Throughout these tasks many skills have been learnt along the way like Photoshop skills, design processes, isometric drawings, concept drawings and many other smaller skills like annotating, teaching organisation skills and working visually using many different ways. My thoughts on the subject are that it was a very interesting class. I found it really good because usually it would not be a subject I would lean towards but I chose it and really enjoyed everything about it. Would definitely be a recommendation for future students looking to choose this subject. Jack Hazelman & Jack Quinn Lachlan Grant - Year 11 Visual Communication Design

Arts STUDIO ARTS UNITS 1&2

Throughout the 2014 year a variety of tasks have been undertaken in units 1 & 2 Studio Arts by students. The course has included tasks in the fields of drawing, painting, sculpture, photography and print making and has allowed students to express themselves uniquely within these fields.Throughout the course students have developed new skills and learnt from their experiences by interaction with teachers. They have gained insight and inspiration from studying various artists within their respected fields and using that knowledge to complete assessments and their own folio’s. We have also written detailed analysis of art works. Personally I have really enjoyed having a creative outlet from regular schoolwork. I like working with new and different mediums and discovering new ways to work with different materials. I have really enjoyed my experience in Studio Arts in year eleven and am looking forward to completing my VCE next year with it as part of my electives. - Jasper Pelletier, Year11

UNIT 3&4 VISUAL COMMUNICATION DESIGN

Visual Communication is not a subject that should be underestimated, a lot of hard work is put in but ultimately the experience is rewarding, as at the end of the year, each and every student has created something and can see what was once an idea in their head come to fruition. Before we could jump into our main Unit 4 folios we had to undertake Unit 3 which not only equipped us with the technical skills and knowledge we would need if we wanted to move into the design industry but also the skills to complete the full design process in our folios. Due to this Unit 3 is very structured and a strong emphasis is placed on technical drawing, analysis as well as professional practice to not only prepare us for the exam but our main folios as well. After an excursion to Top Designs, and being inspired by the previous year’s top work, we began our final folios in which we exercised the full design process to create a diverse range of work that expresses the individual and design brief that created them. Ultimately Visual Communication is a creative subject that allows students to express their ideas and get a taste of the design industry. Ethan Near - Year 7 - Riley Sherman, Year 12

LOTE 2014 has been an exciting and busy year for both staff and students alike. Students at both the main campus and Westcourt have had many diverse learning opportunities. At the end of 2013, a group of 27 students in Years 10-11 from St Joseph’s College and Sacred Heart College and three teachers took part in the study tour of Italy. Students had the opportunity to attend an Italian high school for a week in Milan. Following their homestay the group travelled around Italy for the remaining two weeks of the tour. Students were able to immerse themselves in the language and culture and had the opportunity to visit important Italian cities like Venice, Verona, Florence, Rome, Pompeii and the Cinque Terre to name a few. In July St Joseph’s College hosted six Italian exchange students from three of our sister schools in Milan. During the Easter school holidays a group of 64 people, including staff, parents and students attended the cultural trip to China. The group travelled for two weeks and saw the sights and learnt about the culture of a few Chinese cities, including Beijing, Shanghai, Dunhuang, Turpan, Xi’an and Urumqi. The next Chinese cultural trip will run in 2016, this trip is offered to all students and parents interested in experiencing Chinese culture. Students had the opportunity to grow and develop their appreciation of cultures and languages through not only classwork but also excursions and incursions. Year 8 Chinese students had the opportunity to visit China Town and the Chinese Museum in Melbourne. Year 8 Italian students spent the day on Lygon Street exploring its history and culture and also viewed some significant Italian artwork at the NGV.Year 10 Italian students participated in the LOTE camp with Sacred Heart College. Students were immersed in the Italian language and culture. Students spent 2 days practising their oral, aural, reading and writing skills. The camp helped to build the students’ confidence in all areas, in particular their speaking skills.

Italian Trip

For our Westcourt Year 9 students, the LOTE faculty’s motto was ‘Learn as you use and use as you learn’. Due to the flexibility of the timetable at Westcourt, students have had the opportunity to put into practice their language skills and knowledge through practical activities both in class and in the wider community. A group of twelve Year 9 Chinese students had the opportunity to travel to China and take part in an intensive 6 week language course during semester one. This was a Government initiative, called ‘The Young Leaders to China Program’. Students returned to Westcourt motivated and enthusiastic to continue with their language studies. All students represented the college well whilst overseas. One student in particular made a strong impression – Liam Jelley was awarded a scholarship by AFS that ran the pre-departure camp for the boys.The scholarship will cover tuition and board for one year in any country. Liam hopes to study in Shanghai next year. Finally I would like to thank my colleagues of the LOTE Faculty, without your help, hard work and support all of this would not be possible. Caterina Giacomazzo - LOTE Coordinator

YEAR 9 ITALIAN

This year Italian students have enriched their learning by putting language skills into practice through activities in class and in the wider community. We explored Italian gastronomy by preparing Italian pasta and sauce, used an Italian coffee percolator and followed Italian recipes to make tiramisu!! We learnt about Italian immigration with a cultural project that included a coffee tour of Melbourne and had regular conversation classes at a local café. We also assisted St Thomas Aquinas with their Italian Day. We completed a unit of Science in Italian about The Earth, including the creation of our very own volcanoes! It has been an educational and entertaining year. Louisa Biviano - Italian Teacher

Young Leaders to China I was part of a group of 12 SJC students that went to China under a government program. This is my Buddy and I standing in front of the Beijing Opera house. We were there as it is near a lot of other Chinese attractions (such as Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City. It is a marvelous sight that we could both relate to and represented the advancement of the City of Beijing and China. It amazed me that Europe and China could be so far away from each other but both developed entertainment from stories told completely through song. This photo is important to me as it shows the friendships that were formed in china and how we grew to form one close bond, a unified Australia and China. - James Bowers This picture was taken when we visited one of the schools affiliated with the college that we were staying at in Nanjing. While we were there we participated in a few activities including a Chinese drumming lesson, a Chinese poem class and a tour of the school. I found it really interesting to see what a Chinese primary school was like and how the students behaved as opposed to here in Australia. - David Higginbottom The Young Leaders to China Program has changed my life forever. Travelling to China has developed my mandarin language abilities in all aspects, whether it be reading, writing, or verbal communication. I have been enabled to immerse myself in a culture that is completely different from my own, which has taught me many useful lessons, surrounded me in the company of amazing people and introduced me to new and exotic ways of life. I have even journeyed to some of the most ancient and brilliant landmarks of the world, such as the Great Wall of China and the Forbidden

City. However, most importantly, my eyes have been opened so that I am able to view the world and its surroundings, and be thankful for everything I have. The barriers have been broken in my mind, so that I no longer view the planet stereotypically, but realistically. This experience has given me a greater Intercultural understanding, and moulded me into an open-minded global citizen. - Liam Jelley Hey there, my name’s Mitchell, In 2013 I decided I wanted to go to China for the history and the language that I could learn. In 2014, my classmates and I went to China. Beijing was the very first place we stayed. I found it to be a tourist attraction, as there was so many places to see. This picture is of me at The Great Wall of China, having a break, being tired. (Taken by my Chinese Buddy) - Mitchell Wharmby The trip to China was an amazing experience. My Chinese speaking skills were vastly improved, and opened my eyes to how complex and different the language is to our own. Not only did the trip improve my Chinese vocabulary, it also opened up my eyes to how big the globe is! I’ve learnt so much about Asian culture and language, and feel as if this experience has helped me to become a more mature young man. This is me and a Chinese student working together in an English class at the High School Affiliated to Beijing Normal University. We communicated in both Chinese and English, but I tried to speak Chinese whenever I could. I helped him with answering questions in English. He helped me in Chinese by teaching me new words and correcting my pronunciation. We became good friends over the stay in Beijing. - Jackson Kos

Music 2014 has been a very full yet rewarding year for the St Joseph’s College Music Department. The tour to Canberra, the ACCent on Music Concert in Hamer Hall and the Production ‘All Shook Up’ stand out as highlights. Our tour to Canberra in May saw the Stage Band and Intermediate Bands receive Gold Awards for their performances at the Australian National Eisteddfod. The Senior Band, performing in the A Grade Section, received a Silver Award. As well as performing the boys were able to visit both houses of Parliament and the War Memorial. The mock debate held in the Old Parliament House of Representatives was a lively affair, which demonstrated much debating prowess amongst our musicians. Many trips to Melbourne as well as one full rehearsal at home culminated in The Associated Catholic Colleges Accent on Music Concert. The opportunity to perform in one of Australia’s foremost concert venues with one of Australia’s iconic musicians James Morrison, was indeed a once in a lifetime opportunity which will hopefully inspire our boys to even greater heights musically. Our Senior Band performed very well and our representatives in the combined Choir, Junior Band, Senior Band and Jazz Band all performed with distinction. The combined Jazz Band was lead by Mr John Shawcross. The production of ‘All Shook Up’ in August saw many musicians involved either onstage or in the orchestral pit. The commitment of students and staff to the production was superb, considering that all other music groups kept rehearsing and performing during this busy period. Strong performances were delivered by all the lead actors, while the ensemble grew in strength in each performance. We were delighted with the improvement in the Band throughout the process, many of whom were performing in their first production. Playing with James Morrison at ACCent on Music, Hamer Hall

The Vocal Ensemble has enjoyed working with Miss Tania Spence this year. As well as performing at all the School Music Concerts, Masses and Special Assemblies, the boys have once again participated in Citizenship Ceremonies for the Geelong City Council. We thank the Year 12 boys Ryan Bentley, Thomas Howell, Liam Monagle, Christopher Napper and David Van Etten for their

dedicated support of the Vocal Ensemble over their time at St Joseph’s College. ‘Up in Arms’ were winners of the Edstock Battle of the Bands competition held as part of Edmund Rice Day. The Band also took out the group prize later in the year. - David Gallaher, Director of Music

Science SCIENCE & ENGINEERING CHALLENGE

Earlier this year, the Year 10 students were presented with the opportunity to compete in the annual Geelong District Science and Engineering Challenge. Thirty students attended the event and competed against several other schools. The day consisted of several activities revolving around the domain of science, ranging from attempting to supply electricity to a city in the cheapest way possible, to creating a remote controlled hover-craft capable of overcoming obstacles. Fortunately, we placed first overall, and the following term we headed off to Warrnambool to try our luck in the State Championships. Unfortunately, even placing first in the bridge building activity, having created the lightest bridge capable of withstanding the most weight was not enough for us to leave with a win, placing third overall. Nevertheless, we thoroughly enjoyed both competitions and I would encourage all future Year 10 students with a love for science to sign up as soon as news about the event arises. - Rhys Hegyesi

FUTURE SPARK GENERATORS

On 27 May, there was great excitement at Westcourt, as four new “Future Spark” generators arrived. Gary from Future Spark, assisted students from Mrs O’Connell’s class in setting up the bikes. These bikes are designed to create electricity as the bike is pedalled. Students from the Biology on the Move class were keen to test the bikes out and immediately gained a better appreciation of how much energy is required to create electricity as they consequently powered a fan to cool themselves down as they pedalled!!!

NATIONAL SCIENCE WEEK

The school’s theme for National Science week 2014 was ‘Food for our future: Science feeding the world’.The theme was inspired by the United Nations international year for family farming. The science of food production is one of Australia’s most important fields of research. Food production and agriculture in Australia is a modern, state-of-the-art sector of the Australian economy and is a very appropriate theme in schools. St Joseph’s College celebrated this theme at the Newtown Campus on 21 August. A team of staff and students organizing the event chose to address this theme looking at sustainable food choices and genetically modified food. To start the day a genetically modified food associate lecturer presented to three VCE biology and two environmental science classes on gene modification in foods and the future of these technologies. At lunchtime the quadrangle was a mad rush with students taste testing free BBQ kangaroo and crocodile slices, whitchetty grub lollies, bush food spices/condiments, meal worms and crickets. There was a very busy shop selling creepy creature candy, choc coated bugs and self-heating hot chocolate, latte and soups. A large group of students participated in an insect Testing some alternative stir-fry demonstration, learning to cook insects and foods taste them in a few meals. A radio show run by a group of Year 11 students outside the PAC played a compilation of famous science songs. Finally, a number of students registered to compete in an insect eating competition. This menu included uncooked mealworms, crickets, small and giant scorpions. Ashley Gillespie in Year 11 was the winner; managing to eat the final giant scorpion the fastest.

Sustainability In conjunction with the Science Week theme: “Food for our future”, many of our sustainability projects this year were centred on food and planting styles for the future. With an ongoing commitment to improving sustainable practices, reducing waste and thus our carbon footprint, an exciting addition to St Joseph’s College was our new “Future Spark” power generating bikes.

YOUTH IMPETUS AWARDS

There were many St Joseph’s students at this year’s Youth Impetus Awards on 10 April, it was very encouraging and we were delighted to have several of our Sustainability Leaders nominated for an award. Nominees included; the “Start the Switch” Garden bed project team and Jack Callahan (Year12), for his initiative and leadership of the “Cut the Wrap” Rap “I Like Waste Free Lunches” and promotional video. Jack Callahan was the recipient of the Sustainability Award, receiving a cheque to the value of $500. Congratulations to all students involved for their nomination.

CLAIRVAUX RECYCLING WORKSHOPS

On 30 April, twelve Year 8 sustainability leaders and Ms Jenkins were invited to Clairvaux Primary School to inform the Year 5 and 6 students about the four R’s (reduce, re-use recycle and recover), Fully Comingled Recycling, composting Bokashi and REDcycling. The students showed a presentation Compost about how and why we should reduce waste in our Bins society. They also played various games teaching the students which bin to put certain types of rubbish in. The Clairvaux students took in a lot of helpful information that they hopefully will be able to put it to use and pass it on to future generations. - Ricky Ivelja, Year 8

ENVIROWEEK

Students embraced the challenges of Enviroweek with great gusto and as a result several new endeavours came to fruition, including; the establishment of an aquaponics tank, a trial experiment on the growth of plants with our bokashi compost and worm farm waste and promotion of “Cut The Wrap” throughout the week.

AQUAPONICS TANK

The new Aquaponics Tank Recycling workshops at Clairvaux

Aquaponics specialist Brendan Boltan (Edible Landscapes), assisted sustainability leaders Zachary Stevenson and Gabriel Hickey with the installation of a new aquaponics tank for D14. Incorporating a fish tank

and herb garden, the aquaponics system showcases a more sustainable approach to growing plants, as the fish waste provides the nutrients for the plants to grow. 7D were selected to host the tank, in acknowledgement of their outstanding support of sustainable endeavours throughout the year; in particular, nearly 100% participation for all “Cut The Wrap” days.

COMPOSTING & FERTILISER TRIAL

Under the guidance of Homeroom teacher Mrs Malone, students of 7I have been industrious with their composting initiatives during Term 3, establishing a worm farm and implementing the bokashi compost system. As part of the Enviroweek activities, they also initiated a controlled experiment to compare the growth of strawberry plants using; Bokashi compost waste, worm casting waste and water with no fertiliser.

“UPCYCLED” BARISTA FURNITURE

With mentor Mr Cahir, the Ad Alta boys have been enterprising ‘upcycling’ milk and timber crates, to create barista furniture for their pop-up coffee shop, a theme which is trending all over Geelong and Melbourne.

WESTCOURT VERTICAL GARDEN BED

On 7 October, Mrs Liz Keck (Activities Officer, Bunnings Waurn Ponds), joined Mr Pillai’s Year 9 Planet Green class, to commence the construction of a Vertical Herb Garden bed (sponsored by Bunnings) at Westcourt. As participants of Planet Ark’s Tree Day project, the vertical garden bed was our third project, following a “refresh” of our Sustainable water station/garden bed and the implementation of an aquaponics tank. On completion, the herb garden will comprise of 32 recycled plastic bottle planter boxes, suspended vertically on wire, all encased in a merbau timber frame. - Kelly Jenkins, Sustainability Coordinator

JANE GOODALL REFLECTION

The sustainability leaders and Year 11 biology students were given the opportunity to attend a symposium at Deakin Costa hall to see the infamous Jane Goodall. Most people would know her from her appearance on the Simpsons but the students able to attend the symposium were given the great chance to hear her speak about her past endeavours and current escapades as an activist. She inspired the audience to think about the environment and what we could do in our own way to help. She motivated the audience to search for the small things that we could easily apply to our lives to preserve our precious Earth. - Jobe Neal 11F

Food Technology Food Technology follows the seasons of the year… through the use of fresh ingredients, four periods and changing trends! Food Technology at St Joseph’s was very much “inseason” during 2014 with greater numbers of students than ever embracing food classes, at our main campus as well as our new Westcourt Campus, for the first time ever. Each semester experienced changing conditions, with Year 7 students warming to Food Technology while VCE students impressed as seasoned performers. The area hosted seasonal programs, such as Ad Alta, Year 11 VCAL and September school holiday workshops. A big thank you to the Year 8 food students who participated in school functions, assisting staff with morning teas, such as the Student Leaders Investiture and VCE Awards Ceremonies in 2014. Food Technology student Vincent Ballesteros (Year 11) was recognised for his special food folio, which was shortlisted in this year’s Season of Excellence, Top Designs Exhibition. The competition season encouraged students to enter the Inter-house Cooking Competition, open to years 8, 9 and 10 students, in order to compete for house points in this annual event. All competitors performed brilliantly on the day. A big thank you to our judges Vince Ballesteros (Year 12) and Ms Claire Brown for their expertise and as they say “the judges decision is final” so here are the results:

SYSTEMS / AUTOMOTIVE

Students in this course are taught the workings of various automobile components as well as 4-stroke and 2-stroke motors.Year 8 students also attend “drive days” at Motorkhana where they receive professional tutoring on how to safely drive a motor vehicle.

SYSTEMS / ENGINEERING

As always, the variety of work from the unit three/four students in Systems Engineering is outstanding. This year the work ranges from a 3D printed hand that is controlled via stress sensors worn by a person who is completely detached from the hand, to a replica of K9 the famous robotic dog from the Dr. Who TV series. As well as these two outstanding pieces there is a beautifully crafted radio controlled yacht along with sun tracking solar panels and a wind generator and even an electric “skid bike” In the lower levels the unit one/two students have been working on their “PICAXE” autonomous robots, learning how write basic computer programs that can use sensors signals to allow their robots to manoeuvre around a room. Junior classes have been busily learning the role of electronics and mechanical systems in everyday machines and items that make our lives so much easier. - Michael Davies, Systems Engineering Game design is great if you enjoy working in a team. - Max Richards, 9D

Product Design & Technology 2014 has been another excellent year with students producing works which have challenged them and supported their needs to design and create. The Year 12 pupils have produced fascinating pieces that have utilised a variety of materials to personalise their design concepts. In the other year levels students have produced absorbing and engrossing works that provided remarkable experiential learning.

with two Building construction classes, two Furnishing /Cabinet making classes, VCE, Year 10 and Year 8. The Trade Training Centre resource is undoubtedly proving itself to be a fantastic addition to the St Joseph’s school community. The Westcourt facility has been well used by the students this year and again proves that this type of subject is of great interest to the pupils with a designing and manufacturing mind-set. There are still some teething issues with this facility that we hope to resolve in the course of 2015.

The Production Design & Technology department have been extremely busy with the implementation of the schools new Trade Training Centre (T.T.C.) and Westcourt (Year 9 facility). The T.T.C has been enthusiastically taken up by the pupils and it has been fantastic for the staff to see the students extremely keen to engage in the space. Next year will see the facility utilised even more

2015 is shaping up to be another challenging and stimulating year. It is incredible to work with good people who are striving to create an exceptional environment for the pupils. I thank everyone in the Production Design & Technology department for their hard work in 2014. Paul Melis - Product Design & Technology (Wood) Coordinator

Tri-UMPH Festival St Joseph’s College, Sacred Heart College, Clonard College and Saint Ignatius College were united yet again on 5 September 2014 to make poverty history with the third Tri-UMPH Music Festival. In 2008 and 2011, we hosted the first Tri-UMPH Musical Festivals, where many popular bands and DJ’s from all over Australia played to over 4,500 students and staff. We collectively raised just shy of $43,000 in the 2011 event. The successful music festival was heavily publicised in the region and was plugged on national news stations. In 2014, we were back bigger than ever. Playing host 5,500 young students from Geelong Catholic colleges; St Joseph College, Sacred Heart College, Clonard College and Saint Ignatius College. Hosted by St Josephs College, the bands, performers, food and the weather was PERFECT on the day. With the crowd of students packing Zampatti Oval, over 50 performers, 200 special guests and over 600 staff UNITED AS ONE to help MAKE POVERTY HISTORY. This Tri-UMPH festival - run by students, for students, was a huge success. Geelong Mayor Mr Darren Lyons provided a rousing opening

address before the day kicked off with a some cultural dancers and a band from East Timor. What followed was a long line of spectacular performances, fun, laughter, dancing (particularly in the DJ tent), some relaxing time at the Chill Out stage and delicious food from a variety of stalls. As our name Tri-UMPH – being an acronym for “Triennially United to Make Poverty History” – suggests, our purpose was to support the universal efforts to make poverty history. Specifically, we hoped to achieve our goal of raising $50,000 to donate to schools and education in Railaco, a small East Timor village, to give financial assistance to a teachers college in Baucau on the north coast of East Timor and also to provide funds to Geelong Viqueque Friendship Schools.We by far exceeded our expectations with a total of $62,518 raised! A phenomenal effort. Currently the youth of East Timor face many challenges such as a lack of jobs, training and recreational activities.

Tri-UMPH Festival Through our efforts with Tri-UMPH we hope to provide these opportunities, which will help to build peace and stability within the community. Through this event, our students have seen that they CAN make a difference to world poverty and that they CAN achieve wonderful things. It was a triumph also because it taught the community that today’s youth can be trusted to organise and act responsibly.These studentsy have a wonderful social conscience and when given the opportunity respond in an equally responsible manner as was seen on the day.

The Tri-Umph committee was made up of 30 very passionate, dedicated and hard working students from the 4 Catholic schools, who have worked exceptionally hard over the past 12 months to organise this festival. These students showed professionalism way beyond their years and all their hard work paid off on the day. As a teacher, this is my proudest moment and a day and group of students I will NEVER forget. Rebecca Westwood

Mr Cahir, a staff member of St Joseph’s traveled to East Timor after the first Tri-UMPH festival and established an ongoing relationship with several villages and organisations. As a part or their entry price, Mr Cahir coordinated with the TriUMPH commitee to import 5000 local hand made wrist bands from East Timor - it was wonderful to see the students on the day wearing these wristbands as a direct symbol of how each and every one of them were supporting the cause.

Uganda Immersion

Oscar Hammerstein, the great American lyricist, once wrote, “By your pupils will you be taught.” When 6 Joey’s teachers headed to Mannya, Uganda, in the June school holidays we had no idea how much the experience would change our lives. Challenging. Invigorating. Inspiring. These are just some of the words that encapsulate what we experienced during our two weeks of working overseas.

community who were keen to learn to read and write or when I visited classes that were conducted in mud huts or underneath trees, I was witness to a universal truth: teachers play an important role in the lives of their students. Our work matters because it makes a difference to people.

We were invited to participate in a joint program with Cotton On Australia and Northern Bay College to provide Professional Development opportunities for teachers in these communities. We thought we were going to share our teaching expertise by working with students and teachers in various schools in the Mannya and Busibo regions; instead, we came back with something far greater.

Of the students I can only say this: what a joy it was to work with each of them.They taught me about hard work; about overcoming challenges; about working together; about knowing the importance of love and laughter; about the importance of family and friendship and about the ways in which education is a liberating life force.

We were touched by the lives of the people that we worked with and found inspiration in all that we experienced and felt. We were awed by teachers who completely and fully dedicate themselves to providing the best education that they can, in sometimes difficult and trying conditions. On a personal level I was struck by the professionalism and dedication of these teachers. As I stood facing a class of 93 Prep students or when I worked with adults from the

On behalf of Jack Jurica, Chris Lynch, Ric Brodrick, Erin Norman and Michelle Brodrick, I hope that the relationships between our two communities continues to grow as we have so much to learn from each other. Mark Stracey

Edmund Rice Day We were very lucky with the weather for Edmund Rice Day which commenced with Eucharist and was followed by a cross country walkathon event, lunch and some afternoon entertainment. Thank you for your support of your son’s fundraising for this day. The total amount raised was in excess of $47,400, which is an outstanding amount. The funds contributed will make an enormous difference to the lives of many children both here and in Africa who are living on the margins.

The day itself saw staff and students celebrating the life of Blessed Edmund Rice, founder of the Christian Brothers, through the Eucharist, music, sport and numerous other organised activities. Our whole school assembly on Monday 24 March celebrated the achievements of Edmund Rice Day and made special mention of individuals and Homerooms who put an extra effort into their fund raising efforts.

Health & Physical Education In 2014 the Health and Physical Education department has again provided the students with the chance to experience a wide range of physical activity and learning experiences. We have strived to enhance the learning of the boys in an effort to not only improve educational outcomes but more importantly to ensure the boys are given the chance to explore important health topics and issues and inspire them to live a healthy life, long after they leave St Joseph’s. In an effort to achieve the goals above, the department has developed several new courses and has started a re-structure of the way we teach our subject. The first of these changes was to plan for an increased focus on health, especially at the junior level. After much work we have successfully organised for Physical Education and Health to be merged into one subject, so that the boys in Years 7 and 8 will be given the chance to take part in a comprehensive, year-long health unit. This subject will not only enable the boys to explore and learn about important health topics but it will be integrated with physical activity in an effort to ensure that we teach this subject in an authentic and interesting manner. The second innovation was to increase the academic stringency at Year 10 by developing new subjects that are specifically designed to prepare students for VCE. Optimal Health, Sport Science and Action in the Outdoors will prepare students for VCE Health and Human Development, Physical Education and Outdoor and Environmental Studies. We have also created a new Certificate 111 in Sport and Recreation subject, focusing on sports coaching and fitness which will provide an alternative pathway for boys who are interested in a career in sport or fitness but are not able to cope with the academic rigour of the VCE. Our boys have again been given many

102

opportunities to get out and experience the fantastic environments we have on our doorstep and around the state in Outdoor and Environmental Studies subjects this year. With our own surfboards, ocean kayaks, mountain bikes and snorkelling equipment, the boys have enjoyed getting out and challenging themselves in the outdoors. VET Sport and Recreation has continued with units 3 and 4 being taught for the first time. The students studying the new VET course took part in some great activities and travelled to some amazing camps this year including canoeing the Murray River and white water rafting on the Mitchell River. After two years of fantastic service to the department, Nick Jones has decided to step down from the role of Health and Physical Education Coordinator, on behalf of everyone at the school I would like to thank him for the tremendous amounts of work he has done in his role and for being such an excellent leader. Lachlan Andrews has done a fantastic job as the AFL trainee this year and we wish him the best of luck as he starts his teaching degree next year. To finish I would like to say thankyou to all of the staff and students from the Physical Education Department, you are what makes our department such a successful one and I look further to more great work next year.

Year 10 ACC Football The St Joeys team has had a short history full of success and the squad of 38 boys were keen to keep the success going. Our tilt at the 2014 ACC premiership started with a road trip to Mazenod after a term of hard work putting together a game plan that would stand up against the competition. With Mr Holt and Mr Lynch putting the game plan together and the group brining the hard work we were ready for the season. After getting the win against Mazenod in the wet, we played our first home game. In wet and slippery conditions the boys got the win after being challenged by St Bede’s. Over the next two weeks we would play some of our best footy with a big win over St. Bernard’s at home and a great win at De la Salle, again in wet conditions. The following week would be a wake-up call for the group with Parade getting the jump on us and a big last quarter not being enough to get over the line. The loss to Parade would set up an elimination final against Whitefriars. Without our skipper Jack Blood, a win would secure a grand final birth and a home final on percentage. A loss would be the end of our season.

After an inspirational speech from Mr Holt the group played some of its best footy against a quality opposition. We broke the game open playing our best footy for the year to run away with a five goal victory. The grand final would be played in perfect conditions at Elderslie Reserve against Parade. The group was challenged by Parade and responded, putting together some of our best footy for the year and taking out the premiership in front of a healthy and supportive home crowd. Capping off a great season with big grand final performances Jack Henry and Jono Arcoraci were joint Best and Fairest winners. Will Cann and Sam Simpson were Runner-Up Best and Fairest winners and Paddy Dowling took out the Coach’s Award. On behalf of the group I’d like to thank Mr Holt and Mr Lynch for coaching the group and getting us up each week, I’d also like to thank Lenny Alford, Mick Hinds and Lachy Porter for all of the time and effort they put into the program to make it a success once again. Ned Harris – Vice Captain

Senior Football The senior football team for 2014 saw a group of boys that were even, skilful and very talented.The side was unsure about how far they could go but, as the season went on, quickly realised that they had a lot of potential. The first game sent a message that St Joseph’s was a real contender with a solid 38 point win over St Bede’s. An epic start to the season. After starting down against a tough Parade side in Round 2, Mr Holt (filling in for Mr Clohesy) got us in line and making all the right moves in the final quarter, the team kicked 4 goals within 4 minutes with a vital goal by Jacko McLachlan stealing the win. Round 3 was our first home game against St Bernard’s competing for the Reconciliation Cup. In front of a big crowd we prevailed leaving the team 3-0 and playing with plenty of confidence and run. Fresh off the bye the team was excited, with an undefeated season we continued the winning streak for the next two rounds leaving us 5-0 with powerful wins over De La Salle by 131 points and a 51 point win over Mazenod. Going into the final game we had already wrapped up a spot in the Grand Final. This provided the chance for several sore players to have a rest and for some others to have a crack at senior footy. Unfortunately Whitefriars were too good on the day - our first loss of the season and ultimately decided that we would be playing Whitefriars for the Grand Final. The Grand Final was held at Elsternwick Park in Melbourne.With Whitefriars in the first quarter stacking

on 5 goals to our 0.We kicked into gear in the second half and gave it our all, but the early lead that Whitefriars set up was too much. We fought out the game and held our heads high but unfortunately it was all over as Whitefriars took the game out by 32 points. I would like to congratulate Nick Swain for taking out the Best and Fairest award and Vice-Captain James Hickey who was runner up. Other awards went to Max Augerinos, Casey Meehan, Damian McMahon and Jacko McLachlan who all had fantastic seasons. Congratulations to Max Augerinos, Harrison Kol, Nick Swain and Damian McMahon on being selected in the ACC Team of the Year. I’d like to thank our coaches Mr Clohesy, Mr Holt and Ian Durran. Thanks also to the team helpers Mick Hinds, Lenny Alford, Greg Vaughn, Mr Dawson and Mr Milverton. I would also like to thank the players who commit each week on top of playing weekend footy because they just love to play footy for their school. Finally to the extended team that support, run water, boundary and goal umpire each game – without you there is no game. Even though we didn’t have Grand Final success, we played as a team for the season and had a great time. I wish all Year 10 and 11 boys success next year, hopefully they can go one better! Harrison Veale - Senior Football Captain

St Joseph’s Football & Netball Club The club approached the 2014 season full of confidence on and off the field. With senior football coach Heath Jamieson into his second year of developing young players and the implementing of his game plan, improvement would come quickly. Indeed it did, with the senior 2 o’clock side losing just 4 games by a total of some 22 points. A third on the ladder position with a mighty first final win was a fair result.The 2014 season was another step in the right direction and we again look to build on this in 2015. For our Colts teams at season beginning, we all thought it would be a long year. However, in what is a credit to everyone involved, both our Division 1 and 4 sides had terrific seasons. To have the Division 1 side 20pts in front in a preliminary against Premiers St Marys was a mighty effort. Some very good and long term players will develop out of these teams. Our netball division, with new head coach Sandi Demasi, went from strength to strength. Sandi and her team were able to mould a very young group into an A grade team that made finals, an outstanding achievement. Congratulatiuons to our D grade team who captured the 2014 title, a wonderful effort by all involved when they lost their first final and had to do it the “hard way”. Off field, we thank our three major sponsors, Interpack, Signature Homes and Tri-core Matrix, and also all our other sponsors whose support has been greatly appreciated. It is important that club members and supporters look to use these businesses where possible. Thank you to our sponsorship subcommittee - Kel Purser, John Goldsworthy and Brett Bentley for a job well done. It was probably the biggest year in infrastructure since 2004, with the building of our 2 netball courts and light towers as well as having nets behind the goals placed at the cemetery end of Drew and Walker reserves. Our clubs contribution of almost $100,000 along with a significant financial input from COGG allowed these projects to be completed. Janine Nicholls and her team have been hard at work organising most of our social functions. From the season’s launch through to ladies lunch, the Gala Ball to the Presentation night along with many other events. To Janine and her team - thank you, organising functions can be a thankless task, but brings so much to our club.

This year’s Season’s Launch in March, was organised and hosted by the incredibly generous Old Collegian Nick Maxwell. Held at the Westpac centre with special guests Eddie McGuire, Brownlow medallist Dane Swan and past player and NFL punter Sav Rocca. Nick Maxwell does a lot of work with the Michael Carmody Foundation. This year we decided to merge our Gala Ball and the Michael Carmody Foundation’s function. The night was a success and we appreciate the support of all who donated and attended, it is hoped we can turn the event into a signature annual event for both our school and club community. The Grand Final eve lunch held at The Pier, with approximately 720 people in attendance, was again significant. Thanks to Brett Bentley, John McKinnon and Joe Kiss for helping run what must be regional Australia’s biggest Grand Final function. To all of the hard working committee, who continue to put in the many volunteer hours required to run this Club, I extend a big thank you. To survive and prosper these days at this level, we continually have to become more professional. Having said that, the good in people that makes them want to volunteer, is something I am always in awe of, and is the foundation on which clubs like ours are built. Our supporters groups, Club 32 and the On-Ballers, had a record breaking fundraising year, thank you for your generous support. The players have again been exemplary in their attendance and behaviour at club functions this year. To our football and medical department who put in an enormous effort behind the scenes.Your work is valued and appreciated. To all teams who competed this year, congratulations on your efforts and the way you have conducted yourself. The club is looking to build on very solid foundations and will continue to work tirelessly. In the coming two years we are focused and committed to improving our facilities. This will include netball and football coaches boxes, change rooms and football score board. We look to the next year and beyond with excitement as we strive to continue to build on The Joey’s Way...Go Joeys.

Cross Country “I get a big thrill out of seeing just how much an athlete can make himself do. I don’t think any other sport puts men to such tests as running does. It’s man against himself. I see boys grow into men right in front of my eyes.” - Bill Bowerman (Olympic track and field Coach and co-founder of Nike, inc)

The above quote about the satisfaction of watching athletes achieve their best and watching boys grow into men sums up the journey of the SJC cross country team almost perfectly. The boys who started the training program as Year 7s and 8s are now senior students and this year they achieved their greatest result ever, a third place in the first division of the ACC cross country championships. The entire team ran incredibly well and should be proud. The Year 7’s started the day in a fantastic fashion winning their age group championship on debut. The U/13s were by far the hardest training and best prepared group in the team and they thoroughly deserved their win. The ultra-talented Year 9 team followed suit, again winning their age group - their third championship in a row. Christian D av i s achieved St Joseph’s greatest result of the day by defending his title and taking the gold medal in the U/14s in a fantastic time of 9:35.8 for the 3km, a great result from a great athlete.

The U/16s posted their best result in first division coming third, as did the U/17s who just missed out on a championship finishing by a measly 30 points. The U/17s produced the most entertaining run of the day. Jack Hockely-Samon was knocked to the ground at the start of the 5km race, he then picked himself up and overtook the entire field in a gut busting effort. Unfortunately this took its toll and he was beaten by two opposition runners, finishing third in a time of 16:41.4 followed close behind by Eamon Anderson who finished 4th in 17:00.6 a great effort by both athletes. I would like to thank Glenn Kemp, Kate Childs, Mark Rayson, Shane Dawson and Bryson Milverton for their help training, preparing and making this all possible for the boys. I would also like to thank the parents for waking up early and transporting the boys to training, without them this program would not exist. Finally I would like to congratulate the men of the cross country team, this result is testament to all of the hard work you have put in over the last 4 years and I look forward to helping you continue this success next year.

Cross Country & City To Surf Once again the St Joseph’s Cross Country team attended the City to Surf in Sydney on 10 August. The conditions were amazing adding to the atmosphere that the iconic race produces and with 67, 532 runners completing the run this year it was a fantastic experience for all involved. The boys performance as a team was fantastic with St Joseph’s College finishing 5th in the Athletics and Sporting Clubs category which had 62 teams enter this year. All of the boys ran the 14km’s in an impressive manner with some amazing times (see results below), the majority were able to stay at a 5mins/Km pace which is a great achievement considering the huge crowds and the infamous heart break hill. Eamon Anderson and Ashley Gillespie were both able to break the 60min barrier which is a fantastic effort for this gruelling course. Jack Hockley-Samon and Matthew Keast both had top ten finishes in their categories, with over a thousand runners to compete against in each category this is no small achievement. Jack only just missed breaking the 50min

barrier by a mere 14 seconds and Matthew finished 2nd in his age group completing the race in 58.40, an amazing time for a student in Year 7. When the race was done we headed for a recovery swim in the beautiful waters of Bondi Beach. We then enjoyed the amazing sunny weather with a roof top lunch at Bondi Junction and some sightseeing at Circular Quay including a ferry ride past the famed Sydney Harbour Bridge and Opera House. I think of all the things the boys enjoyed, the knowledge that it was overcast and raining in Geelong while they were walking around in t-shirts with perfect cloudless skies and 21degree temperatures in Sydney was the top of the list! It was an extremely enjoyable trip and many thanks must go to Mr Rayson for giving up a weekend to attend and help supervise the boys and most of all the students for their outstanding efforts in training, their exceptional results and most of all their exemplary behaviour. Well done. Luke O’Grady - Cross Country Coordinator

Basketball Round one of the Victorian College Championships was held at the Werribee Stadium. This year the VCC introduced divisions in the junior section. At SJC we have a good number of boys who play representative basketball so the 2014 Junior team played in Division 1. On the day of the first round the boys won four of their six games. The only teams they lost to were eventual grand finalists and specialist sport schools. So overall, they were a highly competitive group playing in the top division, who performed well in all their games. The SJC Intermediate team entered the VCC tournament in Division 2 as only some of the team were playing representative basketball in 2014. This team had good amount of success this year. They qualified for the State Finals day as they went through Round 1 undefeated. At the Finals day at MSAC, they lost only their first game to the eventual champions. The way the competition worked this meant semi-finals were not possible. Nevertheless, they won all their remaining games and

therefore finished fifth in the State. A solid effort. In 2014, this team played ten games and only lost once, a great achievement. The senior boys also played in Division 2 of the VCC competition. Their preliminary rounds were held at MSAC. They managed to get enough wins to progress to the State Finals, also held at MSAC. The boys played some good basketball on the Finals day but couldn’t reach the semi-finals. Overall, winning some of their remaining games and finishing seventh. The boys were unlucky not to have Tom Doedee play due to injury. A special thanks to Kurt Tremain, Mark Delapaz, Jake Smith and Matthew Milanovic. These four boys have represented SJC in basketball for their entire time at the College. Their sportsmanship and enthusiasm throughout has been outstanding. Finally, I would like to thank Mr. Bryson Milverton, Sportsmaster, for his continued support and assistance with all our SJC basketball teams. Simon Jovic - Basketball Coach

Surfing It has been a big year for surfing with some great events taking place and some impressive results being achieved. There is a great depth of talent at the school at the moment with many surfers currently achieving great results in board riders clubs, state trials and national competitions.

senior division, Dylan Hart who won the junior division and Lewis Oates who won wave of the day.Thanks to Michael Timms, Michael Davies, John Wilcox and Cameron Lampered who helped organise, plan and run the competition. It was great to see so many parents supporting the boys, it created a wonderful atmosphere.

The surfing season started in March with the annual school surfing competition, which was a great success. The boys competed at a very high standard and enjoyed great conditions, their behaviour was excellent and they should be proud. Congratulations to Casey McCrohan who won the

On Friday 9 May the top surfers from the school competition, Dylan Hart, Joshua Cammarere, Jake Milliken, Nathan Rivalland, Harrison Mahoney, Lewis Oates, Casey McCrohan, Cameron Drake, Daniel Ball and James Buckley travelled to Phillip Island to take part in the Victorian Schools Surfing Championships. All of the boys surfed incredibly well, the talent on display was amazing. Lewis, Casey and Harry progressed through their initial heats into the 2nd round and should be incredibly proud. Lewis was unlucky not to make the semi-finals, he finished third in his heat by 1 point. Jake Milliken was the biggest surprise of the trip making his way into the semi-finals with an array of big, back hand, slashes, he was really stoked to make it that far into the competition. Last but definitely not least, was Josh Cammarere who won his final by half a point in an incredibly tight battle and is now the U/16 Victorian Schoolboy Champion. With so many talented students it is safe to say that we can expect some great results in the next few years.Well done. Luke O’Grady

Cycling It was a busy year for the SJC cycling teams, with boys participating in the western zone and state finals of both road and mountain bike disciplines as well as taking part in the Around the Bay in a Day schools challenge. On 17 August, the mountain bike squad raced around a challenging loop at the You Yangs, which tested the boys climbing and descending skills. Each of our boys rode very well on the day, negotiating the course with skill and determination. Well done to Seamus Spanner of Year 8 who finished 4th in the U/15 race, with other great rides coming from Oliver Poole and Cooper Jessen of Year 7 who finished the U/15 event in 7th and 19th respectively. Flynn Draper and Mitchell Grima of Year 9 also rode very well in the U/17 event to take 16th and 17th respectively. On 20 August, 21 students travelled to Ballarat’s Victoria Park for the road cycling championships. We again had some excellent results on the day, with several boys finishing on the podium and taking home qualifying spots for the state final in Bendigo in October. Below is a list of the boys who competed and their finishing position: U/15 – Oliver Poole (2nd - state round qual), William Rowe (5th), Cooper Jessen (6th), Jordan parker (11th),

Staff Farewells HELEN BRISLANE (1992 - 2014) Helen has been an integral part of the Library team until she left earlier this year to concentrate on her work for St Bernard’s Church. In her role as Library Technician, Helen provided invaluable support to all staff and students at St Joseph’s. When I began at St Joseph’s, it was Helen’s calm efficiency that helped me to be able to concentrate on my teaching and know that any resources I needed would be only a conversation away. When my role changed to Domain leader, Helen tirelessly provided information and advice. My job was always made significantly easier by Helen’s support, guidance and friendship. Helen spent a significant amount of her working life with the College and she is sorely missed by staff and students. We wish Helen all the best in the future. - Michelle Bishop, Humanities Domain Leader TRISH MERRETT (1999 - 2014) Trish has been a part of SJC since 1999 and will retire this year.Trish has worked mostly with the junior classes in areas such as Humanities and Literacy. She will be remembered as a thoughtful, patient and caring staff member and we wish her well for the future. TERRI MOYLE (2000 - 2014) Terri commenced as the inaugural psychologist at St Joseph’s College and established a professional service supporting many students and families. The College community benefitted from her wealth of knowledge and experience. Terri’s ability to bring differing perspectives to issues, her insight, easy going nature, ability to reflect and sense of humour have been highly valued. Terri has challenged thinking and processes where required, and she has been a strong advocate for students. Terri has organised and facilitated programs, speakers and forums for the SJC community. She has been innovative and instrumental in setting up processes which have been replicated in other schools. Terri’s retirement rounds off an extensive, fruitful and interesting career and we wish her many adventures ahead. CLAIRE BROWN (2000 - 2014) Claire has been a pioneering female in terms of leadership in all boys’ schools. She was first appointed as Deputy Principal in 2000. At SJC Claire was a woman in a man’s world but she went about her work with persistence and patience and over the years there are so many outstanding initiatives that, were it not for her work, would not have been consistently implemented. Her work was pioneering and incredibly valuable in a number of areas including inclusiveness and the importance of restorative practices. Claire excelled in getting a productive outcomes from difficult situations. She has supported countless parents, students and staff over the past 15 years. Claire has also worked with our extended College community including the Board and the Parents and Friends. Each of these things is a great achievement but her most outstanding and consistent contribution was in the area of the pastoral care of the students under her care. From the outset she worked to establish good structures and processes such as the student action welfare groups, which have been adopted as standard practice across many other colleges She showed a consistent level of care and advocacy for students at the margins which is not glamorous work but in a catholic context it is critical because the families of those students often need the most support. Given that Claire’s role was Deputy Principal Pastoral Care Years 7 - 9 she has done an outstanding job. We wish her well for the future and congratulate her on an outstanding career. DES NOLAN (2008 - 2014) Des joined our maintenance staff in 2008 and has been a valued member ever since. Des is popular with everyone for his competence, good humour and positive outlook. We wish Des well in his retirement. DAVID FORMOSA (2008 - 2014) David has been the Development Manager at St Joseph’s since 2008 and left in September this year to take up a position at Our Lady of Sacred Heart College. David’s warmth and personality endeared him to our Foundation, Parents & Friends, Old Collegian’s, Josephines, staff, students, and families. Our volunteers always felt welcome, valued and appreciated. Both David’s organisational and personal skills ensured our College was at the forefront in the public arena and within our school grounds. We wish David well for the future.

Monsignor James Murray (90 years), was effectively the senior church figure in Geelong for over 30 years in his role as Parish Priest of St Mary’s and the bishop’s representative in the Geelong Deanery. So many of our teachers and school families would have memories of Monsignor from celebrating Confirmations, funerals, weddings and baptisms. Even though officially retired for around 15 years, he has actively assisted parishes when their priest was away, celebrated funerals, chaired the ecumenical council of Geelong and supported the causes of East Timor and refugees. He will be fondly remembered by many for his warmth and pastoral care.

Brennan Houghton Brennan Houghton stole our hearts with his courage and quiet determination. Brennan lost his six-year battle with cancer in February after being part of the graduating class of 2013. Brennan was first diagnosed in Year 7 with a tumour. He had undergone a variety of surgeries and other treatments. Brennan confronted his illness with extraordinary courage and selflessness. He was determined to attend school, which he loved, until the last stages. Brennan was a gifted student in terms of his academic performance and his intellect was matched with a wry sense of humour. Brennan’s philosophy was to live each day for the present and to its fullness, and be proud of what you have achieved. For those who called Brennan a friend, we have been privileged to have met someone like Brennan along our life’s journey. Brennan has left his legacy with many staff, students, family and friends. We have been fortunate to have shared such a short but special life with Brennan.

Brennan was, and will always be and example of what all St Joseph’s boys should strive to be: compassionate, sharing and selfless. However Brennan went beyond the expectations of what anyone could truly ask of somebody with these qualities. He always did the best he possibly could and even while unwell, still attended school as much as humanly possible. In addition to being a compassionate, intelligent young man, Brennan also showed us that we should live every day to the fullest and rather than be displeased at what we may not have, be grateful for what we do have. I speak on behalf of everybody when I say that both the St Joseph’s community and all those who knew Brennan have lost a piece of themselves along with him and my heart goes out to the Houghton family and all others who ever knew Brennan. Rest in peace mate, you will always be missed. Michael Hehir

Brennan is now in God’s care and his struggle and suffering are over. He has been an inspiration to all those whose lives he has touched and we have all been privileged to have known him. Our deepest condolences and prayers are with his parents Bernadette and Geoff, along with his older brother Patrick and all their extended family and friends. Mark Turner - Student Education Services Coordinator
