A Message from the Principal
Dear Parents, Staff and Students
It has given me great pleasure reading your daughter's Semester Two reports over the past few weeks. It is evident that most students have a had a great year of learning and experienced a very rich and diverse curriculum full of varied experiences. Many students have received a Principal's Award in recognition for their fine efforts and achievements.
It was disconcerting to note, however, that a large number of students recorded a significant number of absences this year. Some students recorded absences of between two to four weeks for the semester which, over six years of secondary schooling, amounts to almost one lost year of learning. It was also disappointing to note that in the junior school quite a number of students have trouble maintaining focus in the classroom. We know from years of research that the ability to focus and delay gratification (ie developing good self-discipline) equates to improved learning, achievement and income. Maintaining attendance and developing the discipline to minimise distractions are two important challenges for the upcoming academic year.
At our most recent school assembly I challenged the students to think sustainably about their environment. There is a lot of food and plastic waste that is collected each year at the College. The challenge was to reduce the amount of food waste and reduce the amount of packaging that students dispose of at school. The holidays provides an opportunity for families to talk about how they might contribute to the solution which might include using re-useable containers and reducing the amount of food that is packed each day. There will be more about this in 2020.
This week we held the HSC Breakfast for the Class of 2019. We achieved three Distinguished Achievers Awards (for Band 6 results in 10 or more units); congratulations to Emma Balogh-Caristo, Alisar Khalil and Annie Taniane. We also congratulated Shirley Nagamine who was placed 1st in State in Spanish Extension (through Saturday School of Community Languages) and Caitlyne Halabi for her 10th place in State in the Business Services Exam. In summary, 84% of all results where a Band 4, 5 or 6 and 54% of all results were either a Band 5 or 6. We recorded 102 Band 6 results (or 11.5% of all results). This represents a fantastic achievement from the Class of 2019.
I'd like to thank of all the staff for their support of your daughters this year and for their professionalism, dedication and passion for their calling. As you watch the Year in Review (see below) please take a moment to consider the drive that these teachers have to provide the best possible educational experience for your daughter and for the breadth of opportunities on offer here at the College. In the Marist tradition, teachers are called to be unseen and teachers do this work without consideration for recognition of their work.
Mrs Baker and Mrs Parker will return in the new year, along with the staff who have taken leave to journey to Cerdon in France. I'd like to thank Ms Rimac and Mr Zammit for their work in their acting roles and to Mrs Schinella and Mrs Agius for their support at this time.
As we move closer to Christmas, please take the time for family and for renewal. As a time for celebration of the Saviour, consider the gift of Jesus' birth and what it means for the salvation of the world:
Jesus, God-with-us,
what gift shall we bring you?
The angels bring their song,
the heavens bring their star,
the shepherds bring their wonder,
the animals give their manger,
the wise men bring their gifts,
and we human beings
bring the Virgin Mother.
We bring our whole selves to you
who have so fully and generously
given yourself to us.
Amen
God Bless
Mr Frank Caristo

Year 10 Italian Excursion
On Wednesday 6th November, the Year 10 Italian classes went to St Patrick’s Strathfield for a language immersion day.
There were a range of activities on the day that involved music, soccer, drama and icebreaker games. We were split into groups of approximately 15 people, including our pen pals. We were encouraged to have conversations in Italian to expand our vocabulary and become used to speaking the language outside of school. Our first two activities were fun icebreaker games where we went around to different people asking them questions about sport, food and school in Italian. This activity allowed us to get to know some of the boys from both Italian classes. We were then split into four groups with our pen pals, participating in a range of Italian games and activities throughout the day.
The first activity consisted of giving our opinions on a variety of topics. It was interesting to see different views on topics and how we found common interests with people in our activity group. The next activity was a quiz on Italian songs and artists and the extent of our knowledge of the topic of music.
At recess both the girls and boys discussed the activities completed and got to know more about each other. We were given a range of donuts to choose from for recess. È stato buonissima! After recess the groups rotated activities, our group moved to the drama rooms to create a small performance in Italian.
The last activity was a modified game of soccer and we learnt football terminology. After we completed all our activities with our groups, we went to lunch and had a whole range of pizzas to choose from. The drama performances commenced after lunch, where all the groups presented their skits to the rest of the classes.
The immersion as a whole was extremely entertaining and fun as we were able to expand our knowledge of Italian culture and made many new friends.
Ci siamo divertiti cosi tanto!
(We had so much fun!)

Rotary STEMM Evening
On 11th November, four students from Year 9 to 11 (Tiana Attard, Rachelle Hanna, Bianca Simonetta & Larissa Al Youssef) were given a fantastic opportunity to be part of the audience of two inspiring female STEMM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics, Medicine) speakers hosted by the Rotary Club of Parramatta.
We were first introduced to the life and work of Mary-Ellen Feeney, Technical Director for Geospatial Information Systems. She spoke to us about how even though her initial career aspirations to be a doctor were not seen through, STEMM’s wide range of career pathways enabled her to seek a career in Geospatial Science - a career that ultimately led her on a trip to Antarctica. As part of the Homeward Bound program, Feeney spent time in Antarctica alongside other females from all over the world with STEMM backgrounds, studying the environment and ecosystems from a sustainability perspective whilst cultivating leadership. Feeney’s speech was an important reminder of the increasing possibilities of STEMM in today’s world, and an inspiration for us as students with interests in this area.
Following this, Charity Mundava, a spatial scientist working with the water industry in Parramatta spoke to us about her journey in STEMM education and what the future holds for her. Originally from Zimbabwe, Mundava too wanted to become a doctor, but prerequisites and final marks prevented her from taking on that career. However, Mundava showed us that she ultimately didn’t need those marks to embark on a rewarding career, and studying environmental science at university took her through Africa, Europe and Australia. She explained to us in a simple and understandable way the nature of her work in water management, and is also embarking on the Homeward Bound trip to Antarctica as a result of her work.
Both of the speeches gave us a great insight into the vast opportunities STEMM careers have to offer and convinced us that we can have successful careers in this field despite not getting into our first preference of study. We thank the Rotary Club of Parramatta, Mary-Ellen Feeney and Charity Mundava for giving us this wonderful opportunity and also to Ms. Hulands for accompanying us for the evening.

Year 8 History Mastermind
On Friday, 22nd November, several Year 8 students went to St Clair High School for the History Mastermind competition. Our representatives were Siena Mia Agius, Diya Badawi, Deepana Baskaran, Verity Cassar, Carol Iskandar, Mithra Jayadevan, Abigail Lavery and Georgina Moujalli.
In teams of four, against nineteen other schools, the girls competed in four rounds of ten questions each. The topics were drawn from the Junior History Syllabus, with extra rounds on topics such as famous people and Australian prime ministers.
Although the girls did not make the semi-finals (the competition was eventually won by James Ruse High), they showed an excellent depth and range of knowledge. Hopefully, some of our current Year 7 students will compete in next year’s competition.

Year 11 Physics and Engineering Studies Excursion
On Thursday 22nd of November, eight Year 11 Physics students and seven Engineering Studies students set off to the Transurban office at Lane Cove. The day was an opportunity for us to see and experience some of the awesome opportunities that a career in engineering has to offer. The day began with a presentation by an engineer from the Transurban Graduate program, Grace. Her presentation was full of information on what life as an engineer straight out of university is like. Grace spoke about how her participation in Transuban’s Graduate program allowed her to be part of many different initiatives enabling her to discover what aspect of the job she finds most interesting and enjoyable. We found her talk very informative as it gave us insight into what it's like joining the workforce as an engineer and all the possible opportunities that may eventuate.
The second presenter was Sam Gray, the Traffic Optimisation Manager at Transurban. Sam spoke about his work with the closure of the Eastern Distributor off-ramp at Cleveland Street and how this helped reduce congestion, minimised the risk to traffic workers on the road and stopped drivers from making risky lane changes. Sam talked about how being an engineer may require you to work with the government, media and the local community in order to raise awareness of new road rules in order to create a safer environment for commuters. Sam’s talk was very interesting as it taught us that teamwork and communication skills were extremely important in an engineer's career.
The final presenter, Kaylah Faith Macintosh, taught us about what the practical side of engineering may involve. Kaylah began by informing us on all the previous work as an engineer she was involved with. Some examples included her work installing satellite dishes in remote locations, blasting activities with the WestConnex tunnel and her design work for the Snowy Hydro 2.0 scheme. As students, we found Kaylah’s presentation most informative as she spoke about some of the challenges women face in the industry and how she overcame them. Kaylah was very inspirational and all the students felt more motivated and enthusiastic about engineering.
Before our day drew to a close, the team at Transurban took us into their Lane Cove Control room. The control room was full of screens with live footage of the entries, exits and the inside sections of the tunnel. The two control room officers spoke about the electrical system in the tunnel, the water deluge systems as well as the signage and the designated areas for road assistance at both the entry and exit points of the tunnel. To conclude the day we were treated to some stories of the funniest things each control officer had observed via the cameras.
Overall, the Year 11 excursion hosted by Transurban at the Lane Cove tunnel was an educational and rewarding experience for both students and teachers. At the end of the day, the students left with a better understanding of what an engineering career involves and the cool and amazing projects one may get to be a part of.

Year 10 STEM Day
On Thursday 28th November, Year 10 STEM students had their inaugural STEM Incursion Day, which as the culmination of months of work towards our Formula One (F1) Major Project.
Beginning from concept drawings, design work, learning to use CAD (Autodesk Fusion 360), milling designs from Balsa blocks, finishing and painting cars, a final prototype was prepared for testing and racing.
The day began with presentations in the Theatrette to an audience in which teams were required to introduce each member and their assigned role, explaining the design process and economics in managing a team as well as providing marketing and merchandise information. Each team was also required to make a mission statement and to promote their F1 branding. At the end, teams were met with questions regarding how they ran the team and any difficulties encountered as well as what they might have done differently in regards to their car designs.
In the second part of the day, each prototype car was prepared for racing. The cars were fitted with a CO2 canister, which was then struck by a firing mechanism to propel the car in a straight path along a tether line. Speeds were measured using a speed gun with the highest recorded speed was achieved by Jamelle El Koura at 105 km/h.
The results summary from the day are shown below:
Overall, the day was a fantastic experience for all, and we thank Mr Tham and Mr Setefano for their efforts towards making the day a success.

Year 10 Forensic Science Day
On Friday 29th November, Year 10 students were given the opportunity to undertake the role of a forensic scientist and investigator in the College Hall. The ‘Case of Mistaken Identity’ was the name of the case and involved the fictitious crime of a teenager found in mysterious circumstances with various clues left at the scene.
Using a variety of real life forensic techniques such as fingerprinting, toxicology testing, fibre analysis and the comparison of impressions/marks, students were asked to solve the crime by finding the culprit from a list of suspects. By analysing and finding information for each clue, they were able to compile a profile of the offender and narrow down the suspects.
Each station involved hands on work and students were given time to exchange ideas and notes. At the end of the workshop, all present were allowed to express their theories with supporting evidence as to who they believe the offender was to the audience.
The workshop proved timely as students were studying this particular topic in their Science classes.

2019 Space in Schools Competition
‘Space In Schools’ is a STEM based challenge set for students from primary school through to high school. The challenge given was to research, design and construct a Bio-Medical Hub on Mars in teams of 3-5 students. ‘Creativity, innovation and execution’ - these are the words that best describe the criteria that we had to meet.
Initially, the ten of us, worked collaboratively and researched the environmental components of Mars. We looked mainly at the composition of the soil, water, atmosphere and how gravity affected living on the surface. This allowed us to find differences between Earth and Mars and discover the problems that we had to overcome.
We had to work collaboratively and research the environmental components of Mars. We looked mainly at the composition of the soil, water, atmosphere and how gravity affected living on the surface. This allowed us to find differences between Earth and Mars and discover the problems that we had to overcome.
Under the mentorship of Vanessa Diab, an ex-Cerdon student, we looked at engineering methods to explore solutions to various issues related to landing and living on Mars. For example, a possible solution was to build underground in order to protect against harsh Martian storms and radiation; generating power by harnessing kinetic energy and looking at methods of recycling waste water. Vanessa also discussed some of the problems that engineers face in the confined work area and how to overcome these challenges. She helped us not only with our Biohub design but also helped to build a sense of resilience and determination within the team.
With only a week to submit our final work, we split up into two teams: ‘BioMars’ and ‘Terracotta Mission’. As a team, we had to build a Virtual Reality (VR) model of our medical hub using Google Sketchup; construct a trade display that showcased our company along with its key features; create a marketing portfolio; and produce a slideshow to be used as our visual aid for the oral presentation. Pressure was put on our shoulders to have all this done in over a week but nonetheless, we managed it !!!!
On the day of the competition, various judges and industry professionals analysed our final product and submitted work. They enquired about certain aspects of the design, logistics of sending cargo to Mars, experiments to be undertaken in the Biohub and location of the landing and construction site. In particular, Mr. John Alexander OAM, MP (Bennelong) took an interest in our trade display so we got the opportunity to explain our marketing techniques, design features and significance behind our branding.
In between the judging sessions, there were also some Medtronic activities that showcased the various innovations and products that the company had engineered and are currently available in the medical devices market. Various medical equipment such as a pacemaker and insulin pump were displayed and explained by staff from Medtronic. We even got to try using a device which inserts an implant into the spinal cord !!
In conclusion, the ‘Space In Schools’ competition was a great learning experience. I gained so much knowledge about colonising Mars, constructing medical facilities and off-world sustainability, but more importantly, I learnt how to work together as a team, to function under pressure and to present myself in a professional manner.
Overall, this competition allowed all of us to appreciate the pressures of working under time constraints and the importance of meeting deadlines as well as giving the opportunity to forge closer friendships.
