I trust in the kindness of God forever 

“God of all peoples in Jesus Christ 

You call us from our foolishness to be you children 

Dear Students, Staff, Family and Friends coming amongst us like a kookaburra singing 

the song of a new day.” 

This week has been full of events with some wonderful outcomes. 

Enrolment Information Evening 

On Tuesday evening we welcomed nearly 200 people to this event promoting the College and 

its ethos and offerings. Ten of our student leaders came along and spoke of one of the areas 

of the College which was attractive for them. They acquitted themselves superbly and were the 

best advertisement for our holistic and strategic approach. I was impressed with our audience 

with at least ten very relevant questions being asked at the end after all our Leadership Team 

had presented. 

Why come to St Columban's? 

• Wonderful choice of challenging progressive opportunities for your son/daughter. 

• Strong Catholic values and caring friendly environment. 

• Value for your investment. 

The College has a fine tradition with its history as a Christian Brothers’ (Edmund Rice) College 

dating from 1928 to 1996 at Albion and relocated at Caboolture in 1997. We are now an 

Edmund Rice Associate School with a very strong connection to the Edmund Rice Charism 

and to our past students. The motto of Spirit Tradition and Community embraces our central 

essence and the evidence of its being is in the vibrancy of the student committees, house 

spirit, outreach programs, student ministry, parent involvement, staff commitment, and 

expansion of the College. Some features of the College include a new Trade Training Centre 

with a commercial kitchen, restaurant and hairdressing salon to be completed by the end of 

March. 

Some Major College Highlights: 

• New Multipurpose Centre to be completed by the end of the year. 

• 1-1 Laptop school for all staff and students. 

• Outstanding Year 12 results with good outcomes for all students. 

• School based trainee pathways combined with academic program - over 100 SBT's in 

the College. 

• Sporting excellence and member of The Associated Schools quality sporting 

competition. 

• Performing and Visual Arts emphasis with learning and performance options. 

• Co Curricular program of breadth and depth including environment, chess, robotics, art 

force, college voices, dance troupe. 

• Strong debating program and public speaking opportunities - our win at the Regional 

Constitutional Convention yesterday is another example of excellence in this area. 

• Learning Enhancement Centre providing support and extension to all students. 

So enrolment packs are available at the College or you can download from the website 

www.stc.qld.edu.au We will be interviewing 12 to 17 March for places for next year. 

We will also be taking applications from current Year 4,5 and 6 students in light of the 2015 

intake of Year 6 and Year 7 students. Early interviews will be held later and on an ongoing 

basis for these students with offerings made. SO PLEASE MAKE YOUR APPLICATIONS 

NOW. THIS INCLUDES CURRENT FAMILIES WHO HAVE A SIBLING AT THE COLLEGE. 

P & F Welcome BBQ - a Great Success and Wet Welcome! 

It was a lovely evening last Friday despite the heavy downpours. Quite a number of families 

came along to meet staff and other families. Thank you to the P & F for the BBQ and the 

students for the music, and all the student leaders for coming. Well done to our musicians!

coordinated the 

success. 

STUDENT OF THE MONTH February 2012 

Senior 

Academic: Kalina Morriss has made an exceptional start to the year in terms of her focus and dedication to her 

studies. Her academic results from 2011 reflect a positive attitude and conscientious approach to academic life, alongside 

a successful tennis training program. 

Sporting: Sam Hicks has been selected in the ARU Gold Squad, it is a development program for the Best 16 

and 17 year olds Rugby players in the Brisbane region. He is also a member of Sunshine Coast School Boys Rugby team 

as well as playing for the College in the First XI Cricket team. 

Cultural: Angie Davies has been singing for quite some time, however is dedicated to contributing back to the 

College during her Year 12 year. Angie’s performance at both the Inaugural Mass and Ash Wednesday Liturgy was 

inspiring and entertaining. 

School Spirit: Travis Schumack. At the recent Yr 8 camp, Travis Schumack displayed wonderful leadership in the 

way he interacted with the Yr 8s. The ability to put others at ease, and to challenge themselves to do their best are positive 

marks of leadership. 

Vocational: Madison Smee is a hardworking, dedicated student in Year 11 Hospitality, who always strives to do 

her best in both the classroom and practical environment. Madison always provides support to her peers in the 

kitchen. To enhance her preparation for a vocational pathway into the hospitality industry, Madison has started a 

Certificate III in Events and a Certificate III in Tourism with Brisbane North Institute of TAFE. 

Middle 

Academic: Troy Hammond receives this award for an excellent start to the academic year. He is very focused 

on his studies, is in-tune with the new work for the year and has an excellent work ethic. Troy consistently makes a positive 

contribution to both his Maths and Science classes. 

Sporting: Louie Beatty has started the school year with a great involvement in school sport – participated in 

the Zone Swimming Carnival on Friday the 17 February and swam well and then backed up to travel to Canterbury for 

Volleyball on Saturday and had a good game. A good all round performance. 

Cultural: Tom Krohn showed his talents on Year 8 Camp where he made us aware of his natural ability as a 

standup comedian. Tom was confident and talented on the camp and we look forward to seeing more of his talents in his 

future at St Columban's College. 

School Spirit: Bailey Russel overcame his fear of heights and completed the High Ropes course at Mt Tamborine 

during the Yr 8 Camp. This ability to face fear and to have a go is the attitude that we encourage at St Columban's 

College. The determination that Bailey showed was terrific to see and we commend him for it.

Year 12 Retreat - Reflection and Joy 

The Retreat helps Year 12 Students to come to terms with themselves and their future directions. Thank you to all who 

contributed to this wonderful time, including Cathy Galvin, Libby Blain, and Troy Hammond. 

Interact Club Meeting 

Last weekend saw a lovely gathering of Interact groups and representatives at St Columban's to present their plans in 

supporting the community. Some very inspiring speakers impressed the group and well done to Erin Hilton Year 11, who 

was selected as the Interact District Student Representative. A very worthwhile involvement! 

One Million Women - Don't Miss Out! 

This initiative will be very powerful. We have issued invitations across a large number of schools and it is a way to make a 

difference in climate change awareness. We are privileged to have Jessica Watson as our keynote speaker for this event. 

Jessica has practised the art of living sustainably when she sailed solo around the world in her boat 'Ella's Pink Lady'. A 

sustainable fashion parade of recyclable clothing and sustainable refreshments using local produce are a feature – each 

will highlight ways to reduce our carbon footprint. I am very proud of our St Columban’s College Environmental Committee 

who have taken the lead in hosting this event. It is all happening at the College Chapel Community Centre on Wednesday 

14 March at 4.30pm - it will be a part of extended International Women’s Day celebrations. We would encourage our young 

women to bring along their mothers or another adult and be inspired by different speakers, with some wonderful 

entertainment and tastes to entice you as well. 

Debating - all set to go! 

We have built up Debating to a high standard - let's hope that all goes well in the QDU competition! Best of luck to all the 

teams who start this coming week. 

Ash Wednesday 

In the calendar of Western Christianity, is the first day of Lent and occurs 46 days before Easter. According to the 

Canonical Gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke, Jesus spent 40 days fasting in the desert before the beginning of his 

public ministry, during which he endured temptation. Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of this 40-day liturgical period of 

prayer and fasting. It is a time of spiritual renewal. 

Ash Wednesday derives its name from the practice of placing ashes on the foreheads of adherents as a sign of mourning 

and repentance to God. The ashes used are typically gathered after the palms from the previous year's Palm Sunday are 

burned. 

A Reflection 

“During this Lenten season, may each of us pause and reflect about the ways in 

which God has been good to us, both in terms of her great salvation and the 

many little ways that our lives have been enriched by her grace. 

If these things become personally meaningful to each of us, we will find 

ourselves fully thankful, which will promote the experience of praise and thereby 

rejoice the heart of God within ourselves”

☺ Student should then proceed to the College Office to await collection by parent/caregiver. 

☺ Parent/Caregiver should then sign student out on Early Departure Sheet and student should put his/her note in 

the PC drawer to explain his/her absences.. 

It is inappropriate for Office Staff to phone classrooms, thereby disrupting classes and teachers. The PA system 

will not be used during lesson times. 

Absentee Procedures 

Parents/Caregivers please note the following procedures for notification of student absenteeism and late 

arrival: 

All late arrivals must be phoned in prior to 9am on the day of the late arrival 

All student absences must be phoned in prior to 9am on the day of absence 

Our Absentee/Late hotline number is available 24 hours a day

Please note: Any student who has not been phoned in for being late or absent will need to provide written 

notification upon return/arrival to the College. 

CARPARKS and DROP OFFS 

Please be aware that the Front Carpark is for Staff and Visitor Parking only. We request that students be 

dropped off or picked up at the back entrance of the College. We also ask parents/carers who do use the back area 

of the college for pickups and drop off to be very mindful of the need to drive with caution given the present 

conditions in this area. We also ask parent/carers not to park in the bus turning area at the back of the College as 

this presents serious risks to members of our College community. 

Semester 1 Assessment Schedules are now available in pdf format on the College 

website. See the Quick Link on the right hand side of the home page. 

Parents/Caregivers, 

HERITAGE DAY 2012

Could we take this opportunity to ask our parent community who are in a position, to donate prizes which 

we can award to those students who raise significant amounts of money. Funds raised will be allocated 

to the College mission activities. 

Thank you for your support.

Girls Tennis Weekly Wrap-up 

Last weekend in Round Four we were washed out against West Morton Anglican College and with two teams left to play 

many of our teams are looking for strong finishes to the season. 

Our Year 8 team of Monique Manning, Tiara Locke, Shania Locke, Georgia Kalman, Sari Webber, Carissa Powell, and 

Diane Mai are working harder each week to improve their confidence and reach their true potential. 

Mr Locke 

Coach 

Our Year 9 team of Chloe Williams, Tess Holloway, Sharriah McCloy, and Melina Lock are travelling well in this 

competition to date and are looking for continued effort and confidence heading into the last two rounds. 

Mr Locke 

Coach 

Our Year 10 team of Keelie Scott, Kristina Petterson, Noemi Hadnagy, Megan Delaney and Isobel Stead are working on 

consolidation of their training into their match results for the next two rounds. 

Ms Hallinan 

Coach 

The Open B Team of Kimberley Sue See, Victoria Kalman, Nara Williams, and Harithra Duggirala are travelling well in this 

competition but will need to step up this weekend and the next to finish strongly in this competition. 

Mr Brazel 

Coach 

The Open A team of Kalina Morriss, Brittney Locke, Monique Locke, and Tara Stirling are looking to be undefeated with 

two matches remaining going into the bye and then finals weekend. Coach Mr Friedmann has them working on keeping up 

their desire and commitment with their matches being one-sided. 

We have a home game against Ormiston College this weekend and also have team photos. Open A, Open B, and Year 10 

need to be there at 8am for photos and start at 8:30am. Years 8, and 9 need to be there at 9:15am for team photos and 

start at 9:45am. Note the later start this week. 

Thanks to our sponsors Locx Hair Design and Beauty at Deception Bay 3142 2871 who continue to help the girls look their 

best. 

Alex Locke 

Coach 

Volleyball 

What a weekend! A tight competition against West Moreton Anglican College after the games were moved to Morayfield 

Indoor Centre. The boys really step up to the challenge of the shortened games and we recorded our first clean sweep, 

winning all of the games. 

The Year 8s had their first win with some great serving and confident team play. The 9s and 10s continued their style of 

play with each team playing to their strengths and controlling the games with some great serving and placement of the ball. 

The Opens both had to really fight for their wins and when they looked beaten in some games, a strategic time out and 

words of encouragement was enough to lift them both to fine wins. 

Year 8 

Well what a day it was for the Year 8 boys volleyball team against WMAC. The boys worked as a team and were 

victorious, winning convincingly 3-0. All players played a fantastic game and kept their defence strong. Callum Clarke with 

his remarkable spikes and Rusty Rosenberger with his serving techniques at the end certainly helped claim the win. Our 

coaches’ excellent coaching skills have definitely paid off but stay tuned for next week because I believe we are on a roll 

from here on in. 

Sam Gonano 

Year 10 

The Year 10 side this year is a team on a mission and are very determined to succeed this year and this has brought them 

together as a team. They knew the importance of coming out fast and they were faultless at the net and covering shots in 

the middle and back of the court. At training they worked a lot on moving their feet and getting into position early rather 

than throwing up an arm to save a shot and they did this in the first two sets to win them convincingly. 

The third set was a hard contest as they gave away a 11-2 lead but after regrouping they tried valiantly to try and reclaim 

the point going down by just 15-13 in the last. A great effort and with a 2-1 win. The boys look forward to a tough task 

against Ormiston. 

Brad Andersen 

Coach 

Open As and Bs 

Great games of volleyball played on Saturday with the As and Bs facing some tough competition from West Moreton 

Anglican College. The final score for both teams, 2-1, highlights just how close the competition was. The Bs played 

well with no reserves they maintained their energy levels to fight back in the final set to take the game. A special mention 

must be made of Braden Lockyer, who remained with his team to play out the game despite other commitments. 


7 

Last year the WMAC boys took the premiership from our Bs, so this year the As had something to prove. The game was 

tight and captain Lucas Dewar once again inspired the team to keep up the game play right until the end. The third set 

decider came down to the wire, with the points bouncing back and forth between the two teams. WMAC tried their best to 

rattle our As, but we still emerged victorious. An awesome win. 

Steve Ruddy 

Coach Open As and Bs 

We are home again next week against Ormiston which promises to be another tough home game but I am sure they will 

be ready for the challenge after the weekend. Well done coaches and teams!

HAVE YOU RSVP’d to our 1 MILLION WOMEN EVENT - WEDNESDAY 14 MARCH 2012 

Last week 900 invitations were printed for students to take home to Mothers, inviting them and their daughters to 

this event, which St Columban’s College is hosting. 

Schools as far as the Sunshine Coast have also been invited and are RSVP’ing to the 1millionwomen website, 

listed on the invitations. 

Due to the quality of this event, including our Keynote speaker: Jessica Watson, the Australian teenager, who 

sailed around the world single handedly, seats are filling up fast. If you wish to attend this event it is important you 

RSVP by the middle of next week when there will be limited availability of seats, and bookings will be closing.
