FOREWORD

A CATHOLIC SCHOOL IN THE TRADITION OF EDMUND RICE “WE WANT THEM TO ACQUIRE THE CAPACITY TO QUESTION, THE KNOWLEDGE OF HOW TO USE THEIR TIME ON EARTH WISELY, AND THE DETERMINATION TO LEAVE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE FOR THEM HAVING BEEN IN IT.�

DR WAYNE TINSEY EREA EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

A

s a Catholic school in the Edmund Rice tradition, your College strives to educate and form our young in accord with the great Christian promises of happiness, freedom and fullness of life. We want them to know how to love, how to be curious, how to contribute, how to transform their inner and external worlds, how to live honestly, thoughtfully and compassionately.

We want them to acquire the capacity to question, the knowledge of how to use their time on earth wisely, and the determination to leave the world a better place for them having been in it. We want them to learn to engage with the world on their own terms. We want them to learn to critique their culture and its version of what constitutes a good, a well lived, an important and a meaningful life.

We want the young to learn that the liberty they enjoy through the good fortune of their birth, is not license to do whatever they want. Rather, it is freedom to do what they must do for the making of a fairer and more just society. We want them to know that freedom and service are inextricably linked, and with privilege comes social

responsibility. In a world of emerging walls and closing borders, we hope to free the young from narrowness and intolerance.

We want our students to be happy. We want them to learn, however, that happiness cannot be travelled to, owned, earned, worn or consumed. Happiness will emerge from the experience of living every minute with love, grace and gratitude; lives of decency, kindness and service and authenticity consistent with their inner moral compass. As a Christian community, we hope that our young will find great inspiration and guidance from the experience of Jesus in the Gospels and respond to His invitation to a relationship with God and with neighbours dictated by compassion, love, justice and inclusion.

On behalf of the entire Edmund Rice family around Australia, I congratulate you on your successes and efforts in 2017, as you strive so beautifully to offer the compassionate, inclusive, human face of God to all in your community.

GOSPEL VALUES “IN THE SIMPLEST POSSIBLE TERMS, GOSPEL VALUES ARE DERIVED FROM WHAT JESUS SAID AND DID DURING HIS LIFE.” MR SHAUN KENNY PRINCIPAL

T

hose of you who have read one or more of these Principal’s reports over the years will know that I always like to begin by giving you the same commitment. That is that I will refrain from providing a catalogue of the activities and achievements of the College during this year. Although these have been many, they have been duly recognised as they occurred and are faithfully recorded as part of this yearbook.

Those who might care to look at the report from each of the last two years will see that as a topic, I have chosen to focus upon one of the five characteristics of the graduating student of CBC Fremantle as designated in our publication known as the Journey Document. I also committed to making the remaining characteristics the individual focus of my reports until each one had been covered. Although I have run out of time to fully deliver on this commitment, I would like to make one more of them the focus of my writing on this occasion.

For those of you who have not looked at our Journey Document recently, the five characteristics which we seek in each graduate of this school are: • Tomorrow’s gentleman forms attitudes and actions based on Gospel values, • Tomorrow’s gentleman strives to be his best and understands the inherent value of doing so,

Left: Mr Kenny with Alexander Faccin and Robert Hoy (both Year 11).

• Tomorrow’s gentleman is accountable, resilient and prepared to face and overcome challenges, • Tomorrow’s gentleman is selfless by nature and able to form positive, mutually-beneficial relationships, and • Tomorrow’s gentleman recognises and values the ‘other’ in his life.

I have previously discussed the third and fifth of these characteristics but on this occasion I would like to go back to the one we intentionally placed first.

No lesser authority than Pope Francis recently said that, “a credible witness to truth and to gospel values is urgently needed.” In the same vein, we know as parents that if we don’t pass on our values to our children, then someone else will surely pass on theirs.

However, as often as the term ‘Gospel Values’ is used, it is still valid to say that many people are not exactly sure what it means. In the simplest possible terms, Gospel Values are derived from what Jesus said and did during his life. In an attempt to make the concept even clearer, may I offer the following far from exhaustive list: • Respect for the life and dignity of each individual, • Honesty, • Compassion, • Forgiveness, • Mercy, • Leadership based on service, • Equity, • Justice, • Peace, and • Love. >>

PRINCIPAL’S REPORT

I mention love last because it is the greatest gift which accompanies our faith and because it underpins all of the others.

There are two further salient points I would like to make about Gospel Values. The first is that they are immutable. They have not changed over time nor are they changeable into the future. They are unyielding despite the pressures applied by our rapidly evolving secular society. They have great currency and provide the foundation for good living which is so important to the young men educated at this College.

The second point is that Gospel Values are equally applicable to people of all faiths and even those of no faith. Compassion, forgiveness and the expression of love for the other are not the exclusive domain of Christians.

We are simply distinguished because we seek to adopt these values through the lens and the modelling of a man who walked this earth 2,000 years ago. His perfect expression of them provides us with inspiration, hope and joy.

CBC Fremantle has been a gift in my life for the last seven years. There have been many occasions when, as part of my daily interaction with members of this community, I have been humbled by the expression of one or more of the Gospel Values which has either enriched my life or served to inspire me. Selecting one such occasion from my experience has been problematic but that is exactly what I have done.

Three years ago I was blessed with the opportunity to visit one of our sibling Edmund Rice schools in Kenya.

CBC 2017

The Ruben Centre to the East of Nairobi is a school with an enrolment of more than 3,000 students.

It is situated next to Mukuru, one of the worst slums in the world with a population of over 600,000. All of the students at the school come from this slum. My memories of my time in this place are a confusion of impoverished surroundings, exploitation, hope and the biggest smiles I have ever seen.

On the last day of my visit, I had eaten all I wanted of my lunch and had one sandwich left. I asked Br Frank, the Principal, if it would be all right for me to give the sandwich to one of the students and he said that would be fine. As I left the room in which we were eating, the first person waiting for me was Johnson and his face lit up as I offered him the sandwich. What happened next is what I find unforgettable. He walked a short distance away from me and as he did so other children appeared from everywhere. As they gathered around him he began to break the sandwich into small pieces giving each one to the person closest to him. They took this and wandered off eating their gift. When he had only one small piece left, all of the remaining children simply moved away without fuss or recrimination. Then Johnson looked back at me, smiled and placed the last piece of the sandwich in his mouth.

“I MENTION LOVE LAST BECAUSE IT IS THE GREATEST GIFT WHICH ACCOMPANIES OUR FAITH AND BECAUSE IT UNDERPINS ALL OF THE OTHERS.”

Two things need to be mentioned to give context to what you are about to read. The first is that all of the students at this school are given one meal a day. It is always the same and comprises a bowl of corn boiled in a large vat. For some students, on some occasions, this is all they will eat for the day. The second thing to relate is that the nuns at the retreat centre where I was staying prepared lunch for our group each day which consisted of two sandwiches, one with a slice of cheese and the other with a slice of ham. These were accompanied by a banana and a boiled egg and placed in a brown paper bag; always the same and always ready for us.

This short anecdote really concerns one of the students at the school. His name is Johnson Evans and at the time of my meeting him, he was a boy of about 9 or 10 years old. During my visit, he told me that he was the fastest runner in Kenya and he followed me around during every break at the school.

CBC 2017

11

I have not seen him since and I doubt he has ever given much thought to that day, but I think Johnson formed his attitude and actions based upon Gospel Values. I think he understood and reflected the need for justice, a respect for the life and dignity of each individual and the call to love others.

It is so important that tomorrow’s gentlemen do the same as a result of their education at our College.

In the universal search for truth that engages each of us, >>

PRINCIPAL’S REPORT

we must never hesitate to let the light shine through the stained glass windows of our minds. Thank you to all of the parents who provide a credible witness to the worth and durability of Gospel Values in their own lives and to the boys who seek such goodness for themselves.

I also take this opportunity to offer thanks and acknowledgement to the many people who deserve them.

I would like to first recognise the contribution of Mr Terry Roberts, who is the Regional Director for Edmund Rice Education Australia. Terry has always been available for advice and his approach has been consistently supportive and helpful. Terry is retiring from the workforce at the end of this year and a measure of my regard for his performance is that I will be taking his job! Similarly, Ms Eileen Climo, who has been the School Improvement Advisor for Catholic Education WA, was always available for assistance and direction. CBC Fremantle is a better school for their involvement.

Each year I have spent at CBC has resulted in me gaining a greater appreciation of the quality and industry of our staff. They have a passion for their profession, for this school and for the good education of the young men in their care. There would not be a boy at the College who would not be able to relate many instances of teachers going well beyond their duty in caring for them. On behalf of everyone in our community, I wish to acknowledge each one of the teaching and non-teaching staff for their professional competence and for their discretionary effort.

I state on a regular basis that parents are the primary educators of their sons – that the home is the first school.

At this College we are blessed to have parents who are engaged in the education of their sons and supportive of our objectives. While expressing our general gratitude, I would like to give special mention to the people who perform formal roles in the school. Thank you to Mr Greg Bruce and the members of the College Board, Mr John Atkinson and the Parent Auxiliary, Mr Terry Iannello and the CBC Old Boys’ Association, Mrs Giselle Pangiarella and the Music Parents’ Group, and all of the others who work

in a more formal volunteer capacity in support of our school. Your efforts are greatly valued.

Further thanks are due to Fr John Sebastian, the College’s Chaplain. Fr John Sebastian’s strong support of the liturgical life of the school and his wisdom and warmth when speaking with the boys are very much appreciated by all of us. We are very grateful for his service and hope that the College continues to be blessed by his presence and work for many years to come.

And finally a special thank you to our students.

While many were formally recognised for a variety of achievements during our Awards Evening, it is their ongoing commitment to their formation as young gentlemen which makes their families and their school justifiably proud of them.

I customarily conclude this report by referring to our proud tradition and the exciting future I look forward to sharing with you. The promise of that future remains as luminous as ever and in Domenic Burgio the College is blessed to have a highly skilled, passionate and visionary leader to take it into the next phase of its development. While my own involvement will significantly diminish, my interest will not, and I want to take this opportunity to thank everyone for the countless acts of kindness, friendship and generosity of which I have been the beneficiary during my time as Principal. This is a special community to which I owe so much, and I will continue to pray that God blesses CBC Fremantle on every day of its future.

VICE PRINCIPAL’S REPORT

LEADING WITH LOVE “ANY COMMUNITY THAT FEELS LOVE FROM ITS LEADER CAN MORE EASILY REFLECT LOVE.” MR DOMENIC BURGIO VICE PRINCIPAL

T

his year sees the departure of our Principal Mr Kenny, an outcome that has genuinely saddened many members of our community.

In seven years, despite hailing from the wrong side of the Swan, Shaun has endeared himself to everyone.

In this year’s Pastoral Care report, I wish to write a few words of the Shaun Kenny I know, and who I have seen privately and publicly; the Shaun Kenny who has inspired, counselled, cautioned, supported, and, above all, loved. This is a story of love.

Shaun once told me that if you love your job, you will never do a day’s work in your life. Each day at the crack of dawn he would get in his car from some far away suburb and arrive with a smile on his face, parking in the Principal’s car bay at 7.30am precisely.

Mr Kenny loves his job.

When you enter Mr Kenny’s office, there are two things you will quickly notice; his family and his horses.

Whenever I enter Shaun’s office, this reminds me that the Principal is first and foremost a human being, with

all the feelings, failings, needs and challenges as all of us. Those prominently displayed photos announced two things: Mr Kenny loves his family and loves life.

Having said that, I know there have been occasions when Shaun and members of his family have had serious moments of need, when a much beloved horse has broken down or he received his latest vet bill. Despite the personal effect those moments may have had, Mr Kenny’s stoicism never betrayed to others what his personal pain may have been. This reflects his love of his colleagues, and the model of servant leadership he has shown since his appointment. Shaun’s support of his flock is legendary, but the public support is but the tip of the iceberg. His understanding, empathy and care for staff is unparalleled in my experience. Mr Kenny loves his staff.

On his first day at the College Shaun was given a tour of the grounds. That same day he animated the plan to create a sacred space. Today we have a magnificent Chapel, consecrated, a place where babies have been baptised, vows have been taken and the Eucharist

14

CBC 2017

celebrated. A College’s values can be determined by its priorities. The creation of a sacred space was Shaun’s first order of business. Mr Kenny loves his faith.

Each day at break time, and after school, Shaun can be found either in the yard or at one of the College gates.

He acknowledges every boy who crosses his path, more often by name. His outstretched hand and beaming smile welcome the gentlemen of CBC into his world of joy. It is this ritual above all others that Shaun cherished during his time at CBC. No matter how up or down he was feeling, Shaun told me this was the part of his day that always lifted his spirits. Mr Kenny loves the gentlemen of CBC. Whether attending music performances, sporting contests, College ceremonies or assemblies, Shaun was always at his welcoming best. His mantra that parents complete the CBC community circle was known verbatim by all. Whether delivering good news or bad, the dignity of the parents was foremost in his thinking and actions.

Shaun’s standing among the parents was outstanding and reflected the fact that Mr Kenny loves the parents.

CBC 2017

School culture starts, and is nurtured, from the top.

CBC Fremantle’s reputation for community and pastoral care is well-founded, but not an accident.

Any community that feels love from its leader can more easily reflect love. The Pastoral Care at CBC Fremantle has its roots in the love the Principal has for all its components. In my mind I think Shaun’s decision to end his career as a Regional Director of Edmund Rice Education Australia was based on the fact that he knew in his heart he could never love another school as much as he has loved CBC. I am confident when I say on behalf of all other members of the community thank you for the kindness, the compassion, the empathy and love.

Mr Kenny … we love you too!

DEPUTY PRINCIPAL’S REPORT

CULTIVATING ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE “THE ABILITY TO PROBLEM-SOLVE, THINK CRITICALLY AND MODERATE THE STRESS THAT COMES WITH PREPARING FOR FORMAL ASSESSMENTS IS A VITAL COG IN ENSURING SUCCESSFUL STUDENT ACADEMIC OUTCOMES.” MR NEIL ALWEYN DEPUTY PRINCIPAL

O

ne of the characteristics of the CBC gentleman is that he strives to be his best, and this simple but powerful aspiration has a profound impact on the teaching and learning experiences of the boys in the College. This pursuit of personal excellence by our students has continually been on display for the duration of 2017 and I often find myself in awe of the hard work, dedication and persistence of our boys when faced with academic challenges.

It was wonderful to celebrate the academic success of the Class of 2016 at the beginning of the year. These students produced the highest median ATAR result the College has seen for six years, and this was testament to their commitment to study. Our General pathway boys also demonstrated outstanding achievement with a record number of students completing a Certificate IV qualification in addition to their school studies. Special mention must go to Riley Faulds, who achieved the highest

WACE examination mark in Western Australia in 2016 for Religion and Life. This is no mean feat considering 1,995 students state-wide completed the examination.

This year there was an increased focus on graduated academic preparation for the students at CBC. The removal of formal examinations in Year 7 and 8 has allowed for a greater opportunity to scaffold assessments in the early secondary years for our boys, which in turn supports students to learn how to prepare for assessments. Study skills will continue to be an increased focus going into 2018. The ability to problem-solve, think critically and moderate the stress that comes with preparing for formal assessments is a vital cog in ensuring successful student academic outcomes.

Technology continues to play a vital role in providing a 21st century education. In 2017, community members continued to increase the use of our SEQTA portal. This 16

CBC 2017

CLASS OF 2016 ACHIEVEMENTS

led to enhancing learning opportunities for the boys, a greater array of teaching platforms for the staff, and an increased level of up-to-date communication with parents in both the academic and pastoral sphere of the College. In 2018, with the addition of the Head of eLearning at the College, we believe that this important position will allow us to deliver high-end digital teaching and learning opportunities for our students and staff.

I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate all of our boys on a wonderful year, and I look forward to celebrating the academic success of our students in 2018.

EMBRACING THE TOUCHSTONES “WE ARE BLESSED TO LIVE AND WORK WITH THE YOUNG MEN OF CBC FREMANTLE, PAST AND PRESENT, AND TO BE ABLE TO SHINE A LIGHT IN A WORLD DESPERATE FOR LOVE AND JUSTICE.” MS MARRIANN O’NEILL DEPUTY PRINCIPAL – IDENTITY

A

t CBC Fremantle, as an authentic Catholic School in the tradition of Edmund Rice, we embrace the Touchstones as outlined in the charter of Edmund Rice Education Australia: Gospel Spirituality, Inclusivity, Justice and Solidarity and Liberating Education.

at the Year 12 graduation, when he spoke of the forgiveness he had received in Mr Burgio’s office as a younger student, and the support and mentoring from teachers like Mr Adrian Correia and Mr Jason Matthews which bore fruit in his senior years.

The test of our authenticity is in the actions of our whole community, little and momentous, spontaneous and considered. The test of authenticity can be applied by conversing with our students and ascertaining their understanding of these values, and in this way we can examine the true identity of our College.

INCLUSIVITY Inclusivity was evident in the welcome of the Year 7 students by our Year 12 cohort, the hosting of guests from Edmund Rice Mirrabooka Centre and Tuart Place on Edmund Rice Day, and the value and kinship the boys show each other. The opportunities for all students to shine and to recognise individual personal excellence demonstrated acceptance of the ‘other’ in the classroom. Perhaps the shining light of our inclusivity was the College’s NAIDOC Week celebrations, which highlighted our commitment to true inclusivity and reconciliation.

GOSPEL SPIRITUALITY In 2017, Gospel Spirituality could be seen in the deeds of the students; their compassion and care of their peers, genuine concern for others and a reverent use of prayer and Liturgy. It was clearly visible in our staff demonstrating the same values in their daily interaction with our students, keeping in mind the gentlemen they will become. This was vividly illustrated by Jonathan Frampton’s speech

JUSTICE AND SOLIDARITY Justice and solidarity was obvious in many College activities. The Immersion programme this year saw 18

CBC 2017

current and past students travel to Peru, the Philippines and the Pilbara to experience solidarity with people who are walking very different paths to our young men. In the Philippines, I was touched and moved to observe one CBC student quietly wait until the community was fed before he received his meal.

Justice and Solidarity was also evident with the group of Year 10 and Year 11 students who answered Pope Francis’ call ‘to get off the couch’ by challenging the community to commute to school and work one morning by walking, cycling or using public transport.

The World’s Greatest Shave in the Cloisters, organised

by Ned Marshall (Year 12) with strong support from the community, had a magnificent impact amongst the students, and really brought home the plight of people suffering from the effects of blood cancers.

Heart-warming also was the generosity of our students, parents and staff for all the numerous calls for fundraising, service and donations throughout the year.

CBC 2017

19

LIBERATING EDUCATION Liberating Education was visible in the skills our students used to make a difference in the world. Compassion to see the need, reasoning to decide on an action, organisational and leadership skills for events, persuasive language for the advocacy for others – these are all ways that an Edmund Rice education enables tomorrow’s gentlemen to be examples of positive masculinity.

We are blessed to live and work with the young men of CBC Fremantle, past and present, and to be able to shine a light in a world desperate for love and justice.

Our authenticity as a Catholic school in the tradition of Edmund Rice will continue to be our priority, and we will always rise to the challenge. It is the very essence of our College; it is our heart.

BOARD REPORT

BUILDING ON A LEGACY “THE COLLEGE BOARD HAS ENJOYED ANOTHER POSITIVE AND BUSY YEAR WITH ALL MEMBERS CONTRIBUTING THEIR TIME, TALENTS AND EXPERIENCE TO ENSURE CBC FREMANTLE CONTINUES TO PROVIDE THE VERY BEST EDUCATION FOR ITS BOYS.” MR GREG BRUCE CHAIR OF CBC FREMANTLE BOARD

T

his year has been a time of change and transition for our College with the occurrence of exciting developments and significant decisions.

There are changes at a macro level with the federal government revising its education funding model, impacting appreciably on the state, independent and Catholic education systems across the nation.

EREA have been active in efforts to ensure fair and equitable outcomes prevail for its schools.

At a local level, CBC Fremantle will see the formal emergence of two new Houses in 2018 with Kelly and O’Connor joining the existing four. This is indeed a timely development and will ensure that our outstanding pastoral care will provide better guidance, worth and impact for all our boys. We look forward to the new Houses becoming established at CBC and that the

inaugural members will recognise and embrace the legacy of the men after whom they are named.

At the start of next year, the College leadership team changes dramatically. The highly regarded and muchloved Principal, Mr Shaun Kenny, will commence a position as EREA Regional Director, overseeing all Edmund Rice schools in WA and SA. We greatly appreciate Shaun’s seven years of outstanding service at CBC and he will certainly be missed. However, we are very confident that the transition to our new Principal in 2018 will see no change of momentum, dedication or direction, with Vice Principal Mr Domenic Burgio taking on the role.

The College’s current Deputy Principal, Mr Neil Alweyn, steps up next year to become our new Vice Principal, and two new Leadership positions have been appointed. The Board looks forward to

20

CBC 2017

continuing to work closely and productively with the new leadership team in 2018 and beyond.

The College Board has enjoyed another positive and busy year with all members contributing their time, talents and experience to ensure CBC Fremantle continues to provide the very best education for its boys. We are diligent in ensuring our College continues to truly be a Catholic school in the tradition of Edmund Rice, actively promoting and living the four Touchstones.

This year the Board loses two very valuable and dedicated members with Paul Ziegelaar’s employment taking him overseas and Sandra Seman-Bourke coming to the end of her term. Sandra and Paul have been outstanding Board members and we are very grateful for their wonderful contribution over the years. Thank you also to Mauri Mucciacciaro, Tim Allan, Gia Burd and Angie

CBC 2017

21

Emanuele for their service and commitment on the Board this year. In 2018 we welcome two new Board members, Kelly Medin and Bernard Cronin, and eagerly look forward to their involvement and input.

It is a privilege for the Board to serve CBC Fremantle and we confidently look to 2018 as a year of development, opportunity and positive change. We sincerely appreciate the efforts and dedication of our College staff, the great support of parents and the unwavering commitment of the leadership team.

BUSINESS MANAGER’S REPORT

FINANCIAL SUSTAINABILITY “WITH ALL OF THIS, AS A CATHOLIC SCHOOL IN THE EDMUND RICE TRADITION, THE AFFORDABILITY OF CBC FREMANTLE REMAINS THE FOREMOST IN CONSIDERATION BY THE COLLEGE LEADERSHIP.” MR TONY PITOS BUSINESS MANAGER

F

inancial management of CBC involves the formulation of an annual operating budget which identifies the fiscal capacity to accommodate the funds associated with the efficient delivery of education and satisfies the requirements of the College Strategic Plan. Forward projections of two years plus the immediate budget period allows for trending influences that may affect future fiscal capacity.

The forecasts include different factors such as student population and other data relating to anticipated revenue and costs providing a gauge what is required for sustainability of the College into the future.

Comparatives between actual revenue and expense to budget expectations through variance analysis provides a measure of control which allows an identification of savings or expenditure greater than budgeted.

State and federal government grants, tuition fees and facilities income are the main sources of revenue for the College. If income streams are applied to the outgoings, and if there is a segmentation of income and expenditure, broadly the revenue derived from grant income would offset the wages and salaries expense of CBC. Tuition fees are vital to the operation of the College as these provide the fiscal capacity to debt service loans and provide funds to enable the general operations.

In 2017, tuition fees and charges were increased by four percent. This increase was deemed necessary due to continuing financial pressures on the College including increases in teaching salaries and other general expenses.

Pressure continues to be placed on this revenue stream as the future of grant income is becoming more uncertain due to the government funding model and the upward move in the Index of Community Socio-Educational Advantage (ICSEA) of the College.

Determined by demographic data, the ICSEA indicates increased financial capacity of families in the CBC student catchment area, which then has the effect of reducing the level of federal and state funding.

Expenditure within the College remains to be identified to three main areas: salaries and wages; debt servicing, and operations and maintenance expenses. Salaries and wages is the largest cost area with teaching salaries the most significant component.

Other expenditure relevant to the efficient operation of the College includes that related to utilities and maintenance and professional development of staff.

With government funding almost completely allocated to salaries and wages, the collection of fees is paramount.

Ensuring that all tuition fees are received in the academic

year of billing is imperative. The importance of the timely receipt of tuition fees can’t be emphasised enough in the context of the provision of the funds that enable CBC to continue to develop both the physical environment but also the many other resources needed to keep the College abreast of any new developments in education and provide the optimum in pedagogy.

To elaborate, the reliance on tuition fees is due to the pattern and level of government funding and exacerbated by the uncertainty of 2018 when funding for the following four years is determined by the government. Should the model of funding be changed, then a greater fee increase will result in order to retain the fiscal viability of the College.

With all of this, as a Catholic school in the Edmund Rice tradition, the affordability of CBC Fremantle remains the foremost in consideration by the College Leadership. Continued measurement and control in financial areas means that CBC will continue to remain an affordable College with fees and charges significantly lower than other metropolitan boys’ schools while providing excellent academic and pastoral opportunities.

The College continues the student laptop one-to-one programme and maintains two computer laboratories CBC 2017

for more sophisticated software programs with desktops in Technology & Enterprise and the Music classroom providing additional computer access.

The Laptop Centre in the College continues to deliver the necessary repairs and general service for the computer programme in the College.

Auditing of the current environment and implementation of the most current software, plus the installation of the latest hardware ensures that the College remains at the forefront of technology.

Capital development at CBC Fremantle seeks to provide the best physical environment to provide the platform for strong pedagogy and pastoral care, allowing a basis to deliver the best educational outcomes for our students. Capital development within the College during 2017 included the refurbishment of the computer labs and the commencement of renewed landscaping of the Cloister area.

CAPTAIN’S REFLECTION “GOODNESS IS ITS OWN REWARD FOR THE CLASS OF 2017 AND THIS SHOWS THROUGH THE IMMEASURABLE SERVICE PERFORMED BY THE GENTLEMEN OF THIS COHORT.” NICHOLAS WATSON COLLEGE CAPTAIN 2017

C

BC Fremantle’s motto is Palma Virtuti; ‘goodness is its own reward’. At this stage of our schooling life all of the gentlemen sitting in front of me would know the meaning of this motto. If each one of the 129 boys of the Class of 2017 live by this motto, goodness is its own reward, and change the life of just 10 people, and those 10 people change the life of another 10 people, and another 10, and then another, and another, in a few short years, the Class of 2017 at CBC Fremantle would have changed the lives of potentially millions of people.

One good deed at a time, repeated over and over. If you think it’s hard to change one person’s life forever, you are wrong. Over the 1,200 days we have spent together there have no doubt been countless life-changing moments, for us and for others. The CBC Class of 2017 has changed the lives of many people, whether that is playing footy with the locals of Kiwirrkurra, or teaching young Filipino children on the Philippines’ Immersion; whether we change the lives of homeless people feeding them breakfast at St Pat’s Community Centre or standing up to domestic violence through the Polished Man campaign. Goodness is its own reward for the Class of 2017 and this shows through the immeasurable service performed by the gentlemen of this cohort.

We, as a united group, have also changed each other’s lives. When somebody who isn’t necessarily in your friendship group says hi to you in the morning, or somebody asking if you are okay when you are going through tough times, it can make all the difference.

Life-changing moments aren’t always big, but they are powerful. Goodness is its own reward, and goodness is also addictive, so for the Class of 2017 to potentially CBC 2017

change those millions of lives we must only continue what we have been doing throughout these six years.

CBC Fremantle has taught us many lessons that have well and truly extended out of the classroom and will help us in our day to day lives out of school. One of these lessons instilled into us is to do the little things right. At the beginning I thought nothing of the little things, cutting hair, polishing shoes, tucking in your shirt etc., and I was confused over the meaning of them. But over my six years at this school I can now understand that it is these little things that we do that lay the foundations for creating big things. You must first perfect the little things before attempting the big things.

In reflecting on our time here, I’ve had so many memories, emotions and thoughts flooding my mind and I’m sure it’s the same for all of my cohort.

The experiences like our last day, and our graduation, create a need for reflection, looking back on our experiences at this school. From our moment, walking round that corner into the guard of honour of Year 12s, to our last, walking through a guard of honour from the next generation, we’ve all done so much, learnt so much and developed into the young gentlemen who graduate tonight. We think back to Athletics and Swimming Carnivals, Cross Country runs, big Grand Finals, Music and Drama performances, Visual Arts exhibitions, camps, tours and immersions, Edmund Rice Days and beautiful Opening Masses; to classes with our favourite teachers where we learnt something that opened up new worlds of possibilities; to hilarious moments at recess or lunch, or just >>

COLLEGE CAPTAIN’S ADDRESS

average days of no particular significance. We think back to our Rite Journey classes guiding us to further maturity and understandings of how to be good young men, and to the days we spent in Bindoon, working together to find our way through the paddocks and sleeping under the stars. We think back to teachers who have come and teachers who have gone, to what they’ve taught us, about Maths and Science and English and History and life in general. We look back on the marvellous renditions of the Edmund Rice anthem; to the mates we’ve made.

We think back on all these things that all make up our CBC education. We look back and we’re thankful for what CBC has given us, taught us and formed within us.

Soon the time for looking back on memories will conclude and it will be the time to look forward. We will have to make big decisions about university, TAFE, trades or travel. As a group, we move forward to discover the next chapter of our lives. Although we all move into different jobs, places, study, we will always have unbreakable connection that we have developed over the six years together. Almost every day for six years we have seen each other, whether that be your best mates or the person you sit next to in Mentor. Seven thousand and two hundred hours we have spent together; unbreakable.

We’ve been so lucky to have such a passionate Principal in Mr Kenny leading our search for personal excellence and goodness, supported by the leadership team and other staff, teaching and non-teaching, and our spiritual mentors and chaplains, and we’d like to thank them for their wisdom, guidance, passion and knowledge.

To our beautiful parents who have guided us through great times and not so good times; the people who will always be there for you, unconditionally, thank you. We, as a cohort, hope we make you proud.

To the Class of 2017, we are moments away from graduating. Moments away from beginning our journey through life. Moments away from changing the world for the better. It will not be easy but we are the Class of 2017. The class that can, and will, affect the lives of millions of people in the next few years and hopefully into the next century. If we start by doing the little things right, and never give up, we will change the world for the better. So, don’t hold back, leave this school with your heads held high, knowing that we are tomorrow’s gentlemen, here to change the world.

milestones on the journey “THE CBC JOURNEY PROVIDES A TANGIBLE MAP OF THE PATH FROM ENROLMENT TO GRADUATION AND BEYOND TO ALL OF OUR COMMUNITY, BUT MOST PARTICULARLY OUR STUDENTS.”

T

his year was Mr Shaun Kenny’s last year as Principal of CBC Fremantle, and his departure highlights the power of positive relationships in our community. There will hardly be a student, parent or staff member who has not smiled, laughed, cried with joy or been somehow moved by the shining goodwill and firm faith of Mr Kenny as he led the College into an era that defines the journey of the CBC gentleman.

Along with his leadership team, Mr Kenny has articulated the milestones of the journey that is clearly outlined in the College’s ‘Journey Document’. The CBC Journey provides a tangible map of the path from enrolment to graduation and beyond to all of our community, but most particularly our students. With more than a century of experience in educating young men, these milestones are

routine and time-honoured traditions; for the students, 2017 will be another precious year in the memories of their youth, and nothing is taken for granted.

CHOOSING CBC Year 7 students commenced their CBC journey on Wednesday 1 February by being welcomed with a Year 12 guard of honour. The boys were introduced to their Mentor teachers and spent the morning exploring the campus with their senior year buddies. Playing handball with Mr Correia during the break and becoming acquainted with their new routine with classes in the afternoon all helped the rookies settle in before the rest of the student population commenced their academic year the following day.

OPENING MASS Despite some initial concerns, the College Opening Mass was blessed with good weather in Week 2 of Term 1. More than 1,800 members of the CBC community celebrated the event with Father John Sherman, who served as Fremantle Parish Priest between 2002 and 2009, and was visiting from Brisbane. During his Homily, Father Sherman shared stories from his time working in schools, encouraging the boys to be selfless in a world that encourages selfishness. Ten Special Ministers were commissioned during the service and performed their first public duties ministering the Holy Eucharist to the community.

They were Anthony Cammarano, Keegan Di Prinzio, Jacob Fitzpatrick, Nicholas McMahon, Gabriel Newman, Millen Sjerp, Ryan Thuys, Toby Tomlinson, Leon Viti and Nicholas Watson. Four new staff members were also commissioned at the Mass, and blessed by the whole community in a warm CBC welcome. Mr Gary Bonney, Mrs Kerry Faichney, Mr Daniel Kennedy and Ms Chloe Lynn were reminded of the importance of their role in developing tomorrow’s gentlemen.

SHARE THE JOURNEY Year 7 boys and their dads enjoyed a morning together affirming their special bond at the College’s ‘Share the Journey’ event in Week 7 on Sunday 19 March. Dads shared stories of their past and thoughts of the future

with their sons as they strolled from Point Walter to Bicton Quarantine Park. While having a brief rest, the group listened to a talk from the father of the College Vice Captain in 2012, Steve Doohan, before heading back for the final talk from his son, Ayden, who is a recent graduate from Notre Dame University. The morning wrapped up with a sausage sizzle which was prepared by dads from the Parent Auxiliary who are the driving force behind the annual walk, ably assisted by CBC Prefects.

THE RITE JOURNEY The Calling ceremony launched the 2017 Rite Journey programme for Year 9 students in Week 3. During the year, the students participated in challenges and activities designed to increase their confidence and awareness of the attributes of a positive male role model.

Mr Moss’s group raised money for the Kai Eardley fund by cycling 28km around the river, and Mr Alweyn and Mr Binet’s groups held a movie night for their parents, complete with gold class comfort. Mr Stockton’s boys made chopping boards with their dads and Mr Correia and Mr Butcher’s classes had a special evening with their mums sharing what they had learned at their dancing lessons. The boys in Mr Leech’s class spoiled their mums with a High Tea, and Mr Silver’s team did the environment a favour by cleaning up rubbish along the foreshore at Point Walter.

two nights while Mr Winnan’s group had a relaxed and fun evening playing lawn bowls with their dads.

The Rite Journey week concluded the year’s challenges with a solo camping experience at Bindoon, where the students were encouraged to keep a journal and express their hopes and dreams for their future.

During the week the boys also participated in several adventures along the Swan River including an Amazing Race, sailing catamarans and a Retreat.

RECOMMITMENT The journey to becoming a CBC gentleman involves being prepared to face challenges and accepting accountability for your actions, and the next step in the journey occurs in Year 10 when students gain an understanding of the work and commitment required for senior school.

Self-examination is crucial, and honest evaluation and guidance assisted by Careers Days and Learning Area teachers guided the process. The Year 10 Retreat also allowed the boys to reflect on their commitment and to ponder further opportunities, including the first CBC student immersion to Peru which is scheduled for 2018 and particularly aimed at students in their senior years.

THE SERVANT LEADER In 2017, there were 40 Prefects in a Year 12 cohort of 129 who provided invaluable assistance to the College community and were outstanding role

models to the younger boys. Balancing their studies with service, these young men continually rose to the challenge of being accountable and resilient and showed themselves to be worthy leaders of the student population. They commenced their final year by assisting the Year 7 students to settle in and adjust to their new school, and cooking breakfast for the Class of 2016 at the Year 13 breakfast.

Ned Marshall in Year 12 braved the shave to raise money for cancer research in ‘The Greatest Shave’ during House Week, encouraging Mr Correia and Mr Burgio to shed their locks for the worthy cause. Nicholas Watson took it upon himself to organise a schedule of students to help out at St Patrick’s Community Centre, providing essential volunteer support. Joshua Lacey participated in the City to Surf and a team of supportive students distributed water to runners in the same event.

Year 11 students stepped up as servant leaders and provided a significant contribution towards the success of many events, including Opening Mass, Year 9 Dance Social, the College Art Exhibition, Music performances and sporting activities. The Year 11 Business & Management Class raised funds for various charities while providing lunch for most of the College with a food market.

Countless acts of service throughout all Year groups also highlighted the College’s commitment to social justice and the call to stand in solidarity with those in need.

Year 7 boys learned how they can make a difference, and started immediately by gathering stationery donations to provide to local schools in need. Almost 100 bags of goodies were delivered to St Patrick’s Community Support Centre in time for Christmas and CBC boys also provided muscle at the Fremantle Long Table Event to raise funds for the centre. Crafty students created chopping boards and wooden coasters in the woodworking workshops that were also donated to the centre and some were even sold at the event, providing just that bit extra towards assisting people in need.

Year 10 and 11 students initiated a Get Out of the Car campaign to highlight environmental concerns, using social media to encourage the College community to walk, cycle, or catch public transport to school. The whole school joined in activities for Mental Health Week and joined forces to create a huge ‘R U OK?’ message on Fremantle Park which was splashed all over social media and local news outlets. The Polished Man campaign was a bit of fun to highlight an issue that is not funny, with students and staff painting one fingernail to signify a stand against violence towards children.

“HIS FRIENDLINESS, HUMBLENESS AND BIG SMILE SHONE THROUGH AS NIC SPOKE OF THE HARD WON VICTORIES ON THE SPORTING FIELDS, THE CAMARADERIE OF HIS COHORT AND THE SELFLESSNESS OF THE TEACHERS ON HIS JOURNEY TO BECOMING A CBC GENTLEMAN.”

Year 7 boys entertained some special people in their lives at the College’s inaugural Grandparents’ Day, allowing the youngsters to show compassion and leadership as they cared for their guests during the Liturgy in the Chapel and refreshments in the Cloisters.

The staff at the College also engaged in a comprehensive programme of volunteer activities in the community during the mid-term break, helping out at homes for the elderly, repairing bicycles to be sent to Africa, cleaning up

enclosures at the Native Animal Rescue Centre in Bibra Lake and providing a complete makeover to the home of a single mum for ‘Habitat for Humanity WA’. On site at the College, staff also knitted blankets for people experiencing homelessness on Fremantle streets and cooked 250 meals for the charity organisation Shopfront.

GRADUATION On the last day of Term 3, the Class of 2017 was farewelled with a Year 7 guard of honour, reflecting the welcome they received six years ago when they arrived at the College and commenced their journey.

The formal celebration of their transition into ‘tomorrow’s gentlemen’ took place on Friday 20 October with a special Mass followed by a ceremony at the College. At St Patrick’s Basilica, the traditional procession of symbols to the altar was performed by Henry Scurry, Tom Monaghan, Toby Tomlinson, Samuel Sheridan, Jacob Hosking, Julian Phillips, Anthony Cammarano, Gabriel Newman, Nathaniel Bond-Williams and Darcy Sunter.

At the ceremony in the College gymnasium, Nathaniel Bond-Williams performed his final acknowledgement of Country as a CBC graduand, and musical performances from Marcus Demiroski, Andrew Armstrong and Joel Pangiarella highlighted the diversity of our Year 12 musicians. The outstanding Graduation video was produced by Literature and

Jonathan Frampton and Tom Monaghan spoke of symbols on their journey, with Jonathan choosing a see-saw to describe his six years at the College, and Tom choosing a freeway to capture the road to being where he wants to be.

Finally, Nicholas Watson delivered his last speech as College Captain to the community. His friendliness, humbleness and big smile shone through as Nic spoke of the hard won victories on the sporting fields, the camaraderie of his cohort and the selflessness of the teachers on his journey to becoming a CBC gentleman.

THE BROTHERHOOD OF GENTLEMEN “THESE EXTRAORDINARY MEN WERE THE EPITOME OF THE CBC GRADUATE: HARD WORKING, SELFLESS AND COMPASSIONATE TEAM PLAYERS WHO GAVE THEMSELVES 100% TO THE PEOPLE.” MR TERRY IANNELLO PRESIDENT OLD BOYS’ ASSOCATION

T

his year will go down in history as an extraordinarily heart-warming one for the CBC Fremantle Old Boys’ Association, with 10 of our alumni volunteering to build houses for people in need in Lima, Peru, as part of the Edmund Rice Beyond Borders initiative.

The Peru immersion was organised by Mr Adrian Correia, Head of Rice House at the College and a strong advocate for the Beyond Borders programme, which encourages privileged schools such as our College to offer support and fellowship to Edmund Rice schools who do not have the same good fortune and opportunities.

Ten places were available for the experience, and ten places were rapidly filled as Mr Correia put out the call. The Old Boys who volunteered for the mission were Peter Grosser (1968), Paul Ziegelaar (1981) and his sons Jake (2009) and Tony (2016), and Jacob Chance, Callam Cox, Adam Galiano, Will Grant, Daniel McLaughlan and Tom Wilcox (all from 2010).

These extraordinary men were the epitome of the CBC graduate: hard working, selfless and compassionate team players who gave themselves 100% to the people. The amazing thing is that these men spanned almost five decades of CBC Fremantle’s history; it appears that the characteristics that distinguish a CBC gentleman in 1968 are still true today.

Events and awards We hosted six reunions in 2017, with events held in the College Staffroom for the Classes of 1997, 2007 and 2012 and alumni who graduated before 1971. I take this opportunity to thank the current students who helped with the Over 60s’ Morning Tea; their assistance is not only essential for the logistics of the day, but their presence really reinforces the fact that our old school has done very well indeed. Thank you also to the teachers who took the time to attend the reunions, and to all the staff who are great supporters of the Old Boys’ functions.

The 2017 Alumni Awards were presented at the All Ages Reunion in March, and four exceptional Old Boys were acknowledged for their extraordinary endeavours.

Professor Daniel Fatovich (1976) received the Brother Patrick Kelly Leadership Award; Alessandro Alberti and Massimo Iustini (both 2009) won the Community category, and Tyrone Thwaites (2008) was presented with the Rising Star. Congratulations to these worthy winners for making the world a better place and highlighting the remarkable and diverse accomplishments of the graduates of CBC. The Old Boys’ Award is presented in February to the student who received the highest ATAR at CBC in the previous year. It was my pleasure to present this award to Riley Faulds (2016) whose incredible talent as a scholar, sportsman and actor has been well documented by the College over the years.

Riley is also one of the nicest young blokes you could meet, and a fine example of a CBC gentleman.

I congratulate the graduating Class of 2017 and remind them to keep in touch with their College community. There are plenty of formal opportunities to return, with the Year 13 breakfast and the All Ages Reunion in 2018 being the first, but also to visit and retain the connection with what I promise they will discover to be some of the best years of their lives.

God bless the gentlemen of CBC.

he Music programme at the College is a varied one and the Music Parents’ Group enjoy supporting the multitude of events including Jazz on the Swan, Catholic Performing Arts Festival, the CBC Music Festival and the camp. It was wonderful to see the emerging talent of the ensembles, bands and orchestra throughout the year at these performances.

Thank you to all of the wonderful sponsors of the Music programme for donating some fabulous prizes this year.

A special thank you to Laurie Quintiliani, our Fundraising Coordinator, for all his efforts in securing donations throughout the year. The money raised is accumulated over three years and enabled the Music Parents’ Group to contribute $20,000 this year towards the cost of the 2018 Singapore Music Tour. Congratulations to all past and present committee members for their efforts in contributing towards the fundraising events and to the families and friends who purchased raffle and door tickets.

As it is my last year as a member of the Music Parents’ Group, I bid a fond farewell to my fellow committee members. This team of hard working and dedicated

people provides enormous support to the boys’ events with instant ‘rent a crowd’ and also with behind the scenes activity. Thank you to Vice President Tanya Quintiliani, Treasurer Stephen Everett, and Secretary Suzanne Waters for their diligent works on a monthly basis. Thank you to committee members Gina Blakemore, Aparna Burke, Simon Carrick, Beth Carrello, Anita Cook, Tanya Dowse-Kerr, Eileen McKenzie, Chrissy Smyth, Rachel Tiller-Jeffery and Mick and Mhel Ward for all their assistance and ongoing support.

Finally, we must acknowledge the wonderful teachers and Music tutors at CBC for their guidance of the boys’ musical talents. We thank Mr Shane Mancuso for his planning and organisation before he went on long service leave in Terms 2 and 3. His foresight assisted Mrs Emma Tandy and, with her nurturing and patience, the boys thrived under her care.

SPIRIT OF THE COMMUNITY “IT’S A BEAUTIFUL THING TO BE WITH A BUNCH OF GREAT GUYS WORKING TOWARDS THE COMMON GOOD.” MR JOHN ATKINSON PRESIDENT PARENT AUXILIARY

W

here did the year go? In fact, with my own son Jaidyn completing Year 11 in 2017, I’m wondering where the past five years went!

The Parent Auxiliary jumped on the bullet train at the beginning of the year, welcoming new Year 7 parents, and some old ones too, on the first day of school for a calming cup of tea after leaving their sons in the gymnasium to the care of their Mentor teachers and Year 12 buddies. The Year 7 parents’ wine and cheese evening provides another opportunity for the community to get together and I thank Tim Kullack, Joyce Merenda and Veronica McPhail for helping out on the evening.

Share the Journey continues to be a raging success.

This event is an initiative of the Parent Auxiliary, particularly the dads, and we are very proud of the community support and bonding it generates. Thank you to 2012 College Vice Captain Ayden Doohan and his dad Steve for sharing some of their reflections with us during the morning. Thank you also to the senior students who helped out with the logistics of carting equipment and preparing the sausage sizzle for the hungry walkers. It’s a beautiful thing to be with a bunch of great guys working towards the common good.

By Open Day in March, we were getting rather good at cooking sausages and onions. I really like being able to just spend time at the College, meeting parents and having a chat, but it is perhaps the time that we can spend getting to know the boys and the staff that is the best thing about the daytime events. It gives me great confidence to know that my tall, lanky, almost-man is in the company of such polite and friendly people for most of his time.

We must have done something right with our kids, folks, and one of them was choosing this school, I think!

Mother’s Day Morning Tea is a massive undertaking and it’s all hands on deck from early in the morning to butter those scones and cut those cakes. Mr Adrian Correia addressed the mums this year – bets were on as to whether he would cry but he managed to just get through. Which is more than I can say for a lot of the mums who were dabbing their eyes and leaving behind bits of the tissues that were supplied by the thoughtful and budget-minded events ladies. It is a wonderful community affair and I’m glad that the dads in the Parent Auxiliary can assist in making it successful.

Mums in the PA are not sitting around idle, though.

The evening presentations and workshops from Relationships Australia are organised by the ladies and are specifically directed towards issues that mums have raising their sons. As usual, these events were sold out, and I thank everybody involved for organising them.

Mums also help out at the Father’s Day breakfast in the Cloisters, allowing PA dads to spend time with their sons. I love everything about this event; it is casual and friendly and relaxed and there is always somebody to have a chat with in the coffee queue. Good times!

I take this opportunity to thank our outgoing Principal, Mr Shaun Kenny, for his goodwill and friendship over the years. We will all miss him very much but we are reassured that the great community spirit of CBC is in safe hands with his successor.

Thank you also to my fellow PA committee members.

They make my job so easy with their uncomplaining support and commitment. We all look forward to another sensational year at the College.

STAFF ADVENTURES “MR KENNY AND HIS TEAM HAVE CONSOLIDATED CBC FREMANTLE AS A SCHOOL OF CHOICE, WITH EXCELLENT ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT, EXEMPLARY PASTORAL CARE AND A STRONG COMMUNITY SPIRIT.”

T

his year has been particularly poignant as the College moves into a new era of leadership with Mr Shaun Kenny resigning after seven years as Principal. In that period of time, Mr Kenny and his team have consolidated CBC Fremantle as a school of choice, with excellent academic achievement, exemplary pastoral care and a strong community spirit.

Mr Kenny commenced in 2011 and during his tenure there have been many changes, including the building of the student services facility and other campus improvements, but it is perhaps the establishment of the College’s sacred space that is the perfect symbol of his era at the College. Blessed Edmund Chapel was established in the original school building that, with its

tuckpointed Fremantle limestone façade, Celtic crosses perched on the roof and Italian terrazzo entry, captures the history of the Christian Brothers’ arrival to Western Australia and the generations of CBC families who have passed through its doors. The heart of the College is in this stunning yet simple Chapel. Tradition, history, community, love and faith, and Mr Kenny will always be a part of it.

The College also bid farewell to Mr Brent Butcher, who has been Head of Patrick House since 2009 and served as an Assistant Deputy Principal for the last three years. Mr Butcher’s gifts and talents are diverse and he has contributed to many 40

CBC 2017

aspects of the College’s operations and pastoral care.

His genuine commitment to the wellbeing of the students has been a hallmark of his time at CBC and we wish him well at his new position in another school.

Mr Craig Carter has been the Head of HASS at CBC since 2010. An Old Boy of the College, Mr Carter has overseen the formation and development of a talented team within his Learning Area and his commitment to offering every student the opportunity to achieve their best has been among his many positive characteristics. Mr Carter’s passion for the Turkey tours, which have been suspended of recent years due to safety concerns in the area, and his diligent organisation of the College’s Anzac and Remembrance Day ceremonies provided a deeper understanding of Australia’s history and identity for many students.

Mrs Candice Brown was on secondment this year and has accepted a teaching position at another Edmund Rice college. Ms Brown arguably delivered the funniest farewell speech in the history of CBC at her staff farewell and, indeed, her humour played a large part in the rapport she had with her students.

Her skills as an excellent English teacher and her passion for Rugby will be warmly appreciated at her new school.

Ms Shoshanna Beins worked in the Religious Education Learning Area where she was distinguished by her love for the subject and care of the students. In addition to her qualities as a teacher, Ms Beins has been a huge support in the co-curricular programme at the College and her support and guidance has been appreciated by the young men of CBC. Mr James Silver was successful in obtaining a position at another Catholic college and we wish him well for his next adventure. Mr Silver was a driving force behind the Business & Management market day, which was extremely successful in raising funds for charities, and his commitment and support of The Rite Journey activities and at the Rugby field will be missed.

Mrs Teresa Hyde left her position as the Deputy Principal’s secretary and Mrs Liz Ashcroft has resigned from being the Education Assistant at CBC for five years.

Mrs Hyde and Mrs Ashcroft worked tirelessly in support of students and staff and their good humour, diligence, warmth and patience has contributed to the College’s >> Above left to right: Mr Butcher and Mr Preston; Mr Kenny at his staff farewell; Mr Smith, Mr Hale and Mr Lacey; Mrs Brown with staff at her farewell.

delivery of exceptional pastoral care and smooth running of operations. We wish them well in their future endeavours.

Mr Aaron Smith was often seen early in the morning wielding a leaf blower but the diversely talented groundsman blew the Cloisters apart with a pair of drumsticks when he teamed up with Mr Binet for the Battle of the Bands during House Week. Rock and roll drumming may or may not be welcome at his new position at another school, but CBC will always have a place in its staff band for Mr Smith.

Mr Michael Woodcock, Mr Gary Bonney and Ms Emma Coyne all completed temporary contracts of varying lengths at the College and we thank them for the personal and professional gifts which they brought to CBC. Every year, the College welcomes new faces to share the special bond of being part of an Edmund Rice community. In 2017 we welcomed Ms Sue Bateman, Mrs Kerry Faichney, Ms Sharon Hookway, Ms Janette Iannello, Ms Chloe Lynn, Mr Christopher Pietroniro and Mr Ken Will.

SERVICE DAY CBC staff spent the mid-term break in Term 3 in a day of service, stepping outside their comfort zones to volunteer at 12 organisations around the metropolitan area, providing welcome ‘peoplepower’ and making a difference in the world.

Activities included spending the day exploring Perth with clients from the Activ Foundation, repairing bikes to be sent to remote Aboriginal communities and rural Africa

with Bicycles for Humanity, and painting a house with Habitat for Humanity’s ‘Brush with Kindness’ programme.

Music teacher, Mrs Emma Tandy, spent the day with Design & Technology teacher, Mr Geoff Buss, singing some old favourites at Mercy Health’s Residential Aged Care Home, while others in their group chatted and bonded with the residents. Another team of staff cooked 250 meals in the College’s Food Technology classroom for volunteer organisation, The Shopfront, to distribute to people in need.

A hardy team mulched and mucked out animal enclosures at the local Native Animal Rescue Centre in Bibra Lake, and new friends were made at St Bartholomew’s House as another group spent quality time with the residents of the East Perth facility.

Staff finished the day at CBC, knitting squares to be turned into blankets for people experiencing homelessness, while sharing stories, and even a few tears, of the day’s memorable experiences.

The biennial day of service was organised by Service Learning Coordinator, Miss Emily Bowran, who arranged more than 90 placements for all of the College’s staff.

The experience provided an opportunity to develop a greater connection to the EREA Touchstones of Liberating Education, Gospel Spirituality, Inclusive Community, and Justice and Solidarity, and deepened the bond amongst the staff at the College.

riting my final Morgan House report has been genuinely challenging. I have become unexpectedly reflective. My mind went back to 2001 when, after careful deliberation, the College moved to a vertical Pastoral Care structure. Morgan House was named in recognition of the school’s first Principal, Rev Brother Joseph Morgan and the motto decided upon was ‘Integrity’. The new system was quickly embraced, House identity blossomed and we haven’t looked back. Older students were encouraged to develop their leadership and mentoring skills to assist the younger members of their Mentor group. Year 12 students regularly share that one of their fondest memories is being welcomed to their Mentor group as a tiny Year 7 by their Year 12 buddies. These relationships helped them feel safe as they embarked on a new phase of their school life.

After 16 years as a Head of House, establishing Patrick House then transitioning to Morgan House, it is time for me to pass on the baton to Mr Justin Leech. He will have support from a fine group of gentlemen and a dedicated, passionate team of Mentor teachers.

Mr Geoff Buss, Mrs Carol Denny, Miss Maria Garbin, Mrs Petrina Richmond, Mrs Silvia Romagnoli, Mr James Silver and Mr Michael Woodcock have always provided unwavering support and I know that those remaining in Morgan House will continue to be the foundation of the Morgan family.

In 2018, Miss Garbin will take over the role of Head of Patrick House and I promise to take great care of M8!

The boys in M7 will make the exciting move to O’Connor House, swapping their red shirts for purple, and Kelly House welcomes the students in M4 who will be sporting sky blue.

Will this signal the end of the Morgan dominance at the Athletics Carnival? We shall see. The magic jelly beans surely contributed to another exciting triumph in 2017. One thing that is never in doubt is that Morgan men will selflessly give their time to assist in all areas of College life. Mentor Mass, Edmund Rice Day, Service opportunities, House Week, Mental Health Week, Year 7 homework club, Cross Country, Swimming and Athletics carnivals, Music programme commitments, Drama and Arts initiatives, and countless more ways.

Thank you to our wonderful Morgan families for the support, enthusiasm and kindness that has been shown over the past 12 months, and more.

Our community is very special and I am so grateful to be a part of such kindness and warmth every day.

In loving memory of my dear friend Bob Rose’Meyer, the first appointed Head of Morgan House.

PATRICK HOUSE “TRUE SUCCESS IS WITNESSING THE GROWTH AND FORMATION OF THE CHARACTERISTICS THAT CBC FREMANTLE HOLDS DEAR.” MR BRENT BUTCHER HEAD OF PATRICK HOUSE

P

atrick House had another wonderful year in 2017 with the majority of students displaying a determined and dedicated approach to fulfilling their personal goals and aspirations.

The Mentor teachers, Ms Shoshanna Beins, Ms Emily Bowran, Ms Lana De Palma, Dr Aidan Holohan, Mr Daniel Kennedy, Mrs Alana Edwards, Mr Louis Miller and Mr Jeremy Peris, provided outstanding leadership, care and guidance to the young men of Patrick House. I thank them for their service and commitment; their willingness to model the EREA Touchstones to our students is invaluable in their formation as tomorrow’s gentlemen.

Indeed, Patrick House students are the epitome of fine young men. Over my years, I have not measured our success by trophies or awards as these are easily forgotten and discarded. True success is witnessing the growth and formation of the characteristics that CBC Fremantle holds dear. To shake hands with the graduating class and recognise each individual journey, to acknowledge accomplishments and forgive mistakes is extremely rewarding. The students and staff of Patrick House in 2017 have relished in the combined successes, lifted each other up in difficult times and constantly looked out for each other with care and love.

Patrick House continued to be competitive in all aspects of College life. Sport provided opportunities to excel, as a House we again provided stiff opposition but just failed to walk away with any silverware! Our students were outstanding in academic pursuits with many award winners and personal bests achieved throughout the year. The Arts was strongly supported by Patrick students who, through their music, performances and artistic abilities, provided the College with many highlights.

House Week was a new initiative this year and it was a resounding success. Patrick House was actively involved in all activities and forever more will be recognised as the inaugural winner of the House Week shield. Again, this was not achieved by individual efforts but by teamwork and the combined efforts of all members of the House.

Congratulations to Miss Garbin who will lead Patrick House next year; I wish her and all the students the very best. Work hard, enjoy each other’s company and always strive to do your best with dedication and determination.

RICE HOUSE “WE HAVE A FINE GROUP OF YOUNG CATHOLIC LEADERS IN RICE HOUSE AND THESE GENTLEMEN SHOULD BE PROUD OF THEIR ACHIEVEMENTS.�

MR ADRIAN CORREIA HEAD OF RICE HOUSE

R

ice House is blessed to have such wonderful Mentor teachers who offer an unbelievable amount of time, care and support for the development of the young men in their groups. Thank you to Mrs Amelia Andrew, Ms Shoshanna Beins, Mrs Nicole Christie, Ms Trevanna Cooper, Mrs Chantelle Edwards, Mrs Zoe Francis, Mrs Stavroula Hantzis, Mr Matthew Stockton, Miss Lisa Tognolini and Mr Adryan Winnan for the exceptional work and guidance they provide the students of Rice House.

Rice House started the year by successfully defending the title at the Swimming carnival and continued their great efforts into the Cross Country and Athletics carnivals, finishing second and third respectively.

House Week was a new initiative and was an amazing success with students embracing every element including music, sport, service, academics and debating. The attendance at the family breakfast was incredible, with a large number of parents taking the opportunity to join their sons in Mentor Group after the event. It was a great testament to the welcoming community we have at CBC and it was excellent to see all four Houses combine their fundraising efforts and have fun while doing so.

Our College Prefects and House Councillors performed a magnificent job this year helping with events, carnivals, fundraisers and activities. We have a fine CBC 2017

59

group of young Catholic leaders in Rice House and these gentlemen should be proud of their achievements.

To the graduating Class of 2017, you have been an amazing cohort and have achieved so much during your time at the College. You have been excellent role models for the younger boys in your Mentor Groups and I wish you all the best in your future endeavours.

In 2018, CBC has made a significant investment to improve the pastoral care of the College by introducing two new Houses. While this is going to be an exciting opportunity for the College and a great initiative, it sadly means that be losing some members of the Rice family. To the members of R4, R7 and all the students that were randomly selected to change to one of the new Houses, I want to thank you for the great contributions you made to Rice House.

You will never be forgotten and I will always consider you a member of Rice at heart.

Thank you to all the students in Rice House for making CBC such a great place. I hope you all had an enjoyable year and wish you and your families an incredible 2018.

SAMSON HOUSE “THE SWIMMING CARNIVAL IN TERM 1 IS A HIGHLIGHT AND I SAW MANY OF OUR BOYS TRYING THEIR BEST AND ACHIEVING RESULTS THAT THEY WOULD HAVE NEVER DREAMED OF.” MRS PAULINE VAN LOHUIZEN HEAD OF SAMSON HOUSE

I

t has been an exciting year for Samson House with so many opportunities to engage and shine. In Term 1 we welcomed our new Year 7 cohort, and I was particularly impressed with the way in which the older boys in our Mentor groups assisted the younger boys with extreme patience and warmth. Our community is definitely inclusive and caring.

The Swimming Carnival in Term 1 is a highlight and I saw many of our boys trying their best and achieving results that they would have never dreamed of. I would like to thank the boys who assisted with marshalling, and who volunteered for events without prompting. It fills me with pride that they can be so supportive of each other.

This was the first year that we held a House Week, which we could not have done without the support of parents and students. Ned Marshall was the driving force behind ‘The Greatest Shave’, an event which we hope to continue in the future. Our parents generously donated items to be used for fundraising and I thank them from the bottom of my heart. They demonstrated to our Samson boys the idea of philanthropy and caring for the community. Charity funds raised by Samson House this year went to the Edmund Rice Centre in Western Australia.

The funds were particularly welcome in their sporting programme, an initiative that assists new migrants, refugees and Indigenous people to feel welcome through recreation.

Our Athletics Carnival was another big event for Samson House boys and created a real sense of belonging and House identity as they all cheered each other along. It is a fun and entertaining day with an emphasis on participation and teamwork.

I would like to thank our Mentor teachers for being the friendly go-to person each day for our boys: Mr Ian Binet and Mrs Meagan Musson in S1, Mr Anthony Rawnsley in S2, Mr Joel Moss in S3, Mr James Schubert in S4, Mrs Rosalba Jeffreys in S5, Mr Craig Jones in S6, Miss Shelley Nodwell in S7 and Mrs Shayni Nelson and Mrs Vera Moura in S8. We will miss S7 and S4 students next year as they move into the new Houses, and I wish them the best in their new colours.

I also wish the very best to our graduating Class of 2017 and thank them, and the remainder of the boys, for making my first year as Head of House a memorable one. I look forward to achieving many more fantastic results together.

GOSPEL SPIRITUALITY “WE WERE PROUD TO SEE OUR YOUNG MEN ENGAGE IN AN EXCITING AND ENRICHING YEAR IN 2017, BUILDING ON THEIR SOLID GROUNDING IN FAITH AND CONTINUING TO DEVELOP AS FINE YOUNG MEN.” MRS SARAH QUIN HEAD OF RELIGIOUS EDUCATION

T

he Religious Education department has worked hard to develop the mandated RE course from the Catholic Education Office and marry this to the language of the Schools Curriculum Standards Association (SCSA). We are clearly on the right track as 2017 began with the announcement that Riley Faulds had achieved the highest result in 2016 for the Year 12 ATAR WACE examination. We were thrilled for Riley and hope he inspires greater numbers of boys to select this subject when building their successful ATAR pathways.

We are now concentrating on our next three-year plan which focuses on pedagogy with critical thought, reflection and creative classrooms. Currently we are immersing ourselves in research in these areas and looking at best practice throughout Western Australia with the aim to develop new units in lower school that empower our students for their future in an ever changing world. In conjunction with the EREA touchstones and the CBC Journey document, we will ensure that Religious Education becomes more than just a link to the history and culture of

the College, and a reality in the lives of our students as we send them out to be gentlemen in this world.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Ms Shoshanna Beins, Miss Maria Garbin, Ms Chloe Lynn, Ms Leanne Ogden and Mr Matthew Silveira who have worked tirelessly over the year to ensure that all students are capable of achieving their personal best in this learning area. I would also like to thank Mr Daniel Tinsey who joined us from Notre Dame University for 12 weeks for his time and efforts in the classroom.

Religious Education can often deal with counter cultural content in today’s world and I thank all the parents who have supported us and encouraged their sons to embrace their journey to becoming a CBC gentleman.

We were proud to see our young men engage in an exciting and enriching year in 2017, building on their solid grounding in faith and continuing to develop as fine young men.

God Bless.

THE SPIRITUAL ENGINE MR MATTHEW SILVEIRA LITURGIES & RETREATS COORDINATOR

T

his year in Liturgies and Retreats there was a fundamental change in the evolution of themes for Years 7 to 12. Mr Shaun Kenny had given the green light and his full support to revamp the themes for all the years with a focus on a consistent and meaningful final message the gentlemen of CBC receive at graduation, to go out and be witnesses to the Gospel Values. Deputy Principal for Identity, Ms Marriann O’Neill, along with a few other committed staff members, played a vital role in planning and designing the scope and sequence of Retreats, all of which were very successful.

The core of Catholic life emanates from the celebration of the Holy Eucharist. The weekly Eucharistic celebration on every Thursday in Blessed Edmund Rice Chapel serves to be the most vital source of spiritual nourishment for our students, and extends to all facets of CBC life through other liturgical celebrations with the CBC community at large. The most significant part of the liturgical calendar occurs during the Lenten Term with the Opening Mass, Ash Wednesday, Retreats, Reconciliations and finishing up with the beautiful Easter Liturgy.

In Term 2, or Edmund Term, one of the highlight events was the Mother’s Day Liturgy which was the most vital part of the morning’s celebrations and unique to CBC. Mothers, grandmothers and students were all actively involved in different parts of the Liturgy to their utmost satisfaction and pleasure.

The growth in spirituality is the most significant part of today’s boys developing into tomorrow’s gentlemen, in the spirit of Pope Francis and our beloved patron Blessed Edmund Rice who followed the path of the Gospel of Christ. Year 12 and Year 7 Retreats were both conducted in an atmosphere conducive to intensive reflection on the Call of Christ in their journey towards the fullness of humanity.

Year 10 and 11 Retreats prepare the students for the steady ‘climb’ towards becoming a gentleman of CBC in response to the continuous call of Christ, complete with rises and falls in balance. The major change were the venues for the Retreats, which made a huge difference to the success of these special events.

The Year 8 Retreat was conducted in a fabulous venue as well. The contribution of our committed staff of CBC was phenomenal: Mrs Sarah Quin, Ms Shoshanna Beins, Miss Maria Garbin, Mrs Alana Edwards, and the list goes on.

The two highlights of the final term were the Year 12 Graduation Mass and the final stage of The Rite Journey for Year 9 students. The Graduation Mass was such a moving ceremony with Year 12 students taking up with pride several roles in the Liturgy to make it a meaningful and spiritually enriching experience for all of the cohort, their families and the staff.

The Rite Journey came to a culmination with the retreat ‘Near Restful Waters’ facilitated by myself, Mr Jeremy Peris and Mr Sandro Sandri, who has a unique and exceptional ability to bring home the message of the Gospel. The students were led on a simulation of walking along the Sea of Galilee, while actually they were on the shores of our own Swan River. The way Mr Sandri integrated the

84

CBC 2017

teachings of Christ in four different stations representing the Galilean towns Capernaum, Bethsaida, Tiberius and Gennesareth provided the students with a deep spiritual experience. The Washing of the Feet ceremony modelled after the Last Supper of Jesus epitomised the day’s events, which led the students to a vital transformation during their journey towards manhood.

The commitment of CBC to the spiritual growth of the whole community is expressed through the Family Masses celebrated in St Patrick’s Basilica.

The different roles played by the students of CBC in the Eucharistic celebrations and the singing of the College Choir organised by Mr Shane Mancuso and Mrs Emma Tandy make it a vibrant and relevant Liturgy.

The Extraordinary Ministers of the Eucharist at CBC are trained for distributing Holy Communion during nearly 50 Eucharistic celebrations that occur during the course of the year. The 10 Year 12 students selected in Year 11 underwent a whole day training session in the Redemptorist Retreat Centre to be thoroughly prepared for their ministry. The contribution of Miss Maria Garbin towards the formation of these students is acknowledged with thanks and appreciation.

They were Anthony Cammarano, Keegan Di Prinzio, Jacob Fitzpatrick, Nicholas McMahon, Gabriel Newman, Millen Sjerp, Ryan Thuys, Toby Tomlinson, Leon Viti and Nicholas Watson, and these young men performed their spiritual and Liturgical duties with outstanding commitment.

The spiritual epitome of the CBC gentleman was reached during the Kairos Retreat for 24 Year 11 students on their search for spiritual enlightenment.

Mrs Rosalba Jeffreys, and a few alumni of CBC, the students experienced an immersion into the values of Christ for four days at the Retreat House at Safety Bay. The role of Our Blessed Virgin Mary in the economy of salvation by cooperating with her Divine Son Jesus is never to be ignored. The Rosary Group of CBC initiated

by Mr John Hortense and Dr Aidan Holohan seek the intercessions of Mother Mary every Tuesday morning by meditating on the life of Jesus through prayerful recitation of the Rosary.

It is my pleasure to acknowledge the mighty contributions of Ms O’Neill, especially in implementing the scope and sequence of the CBC Retreat programmes this year; the ever-willing support and input of Mrs Sarah Quin and the RE staff; the dedication and commitment of Fr John Sebastian to all our Liturgies and Retreats, and the cooperation of all the staff and parents, especially for the weekly CBC Masses.

Finally it is not at all an exaggeration to say that Mr Kenny, the outgoing Principal of CBC, as a person soaked in the spirituality centred on the Gospel Values in the tradition of the Catholic church and Blessed Edmund Rice, has been the most vital spiritual stronghold of CBC for the last seven years. May God shower His blessings on Mr Kenny to bloom in his very special vocation as the disciple of Christ in the EREA, the incoming Principal Mr Domenic Burgio, and the whole CBC community, and strengthen our bond as one family in our journey with our boys becoming tomorrow’s gentlemen.

PEOPLE FOR OTHERS MS EMILY BOWRAN SERVICE LEARNING COORDINATOR

If there is one thing that defines the CBC gentleman, it’s his giving spirit. Without exception, whenever there is a cause, charity, event or community that requires assistance, there are countless young men willing to lend a hand.

This year commenced with the students fundraising for Project Compassion during the Lenten season.

The boys dug deep, collecting donations to help end poverty, promote justice, and uphold dignity in solidarity with the world’s poor and marginalised people.

The commitment to others continued from there, with participation in Good Start Breakfast, blood donation, City to Surf, the Polished Man campaign, Rotary projects, a march to end melanoma, Relay for Life, and many more worthy activities.

With Term 3 came the biennial Staff Service Day, where CBC’s pledge to provide authentic role modelling once again stepped beyond the classroom and into the local community. While the boys enjoyed the

day off, all teaching and non-teaching staff worked across nine community support organisations as volunteers. Activities included repairing bicycles for remote communities, being companions for adults living with disabilities, cooking more than 250 meals for distribution to people experiencing homelessness, and painting the entire home of a Perth family in need.

This year also saw the development of a closer relationship with St Patricks’ Community Support Centre, as students made chopping boards and coasters for volunteers, worked in the kitchen serving breakfast to local patrons, and collected more than 100 hamper bags worth of donations for the annual Christmas appeal.

It was another fantastic year of giving, and it brings to a close my time as the Coordinator of the Service programme. I would like to take this opportunity to say that it has been a pleasure and a privilege to support both students and staff in their charitable work over the past five years, and it has taught me that the CBC Fremantle community truly understand what it means to serve others.

INDIGENOUS INSPIRATION MR JASON MATTHEWS INDIGENOUS EDUCATION COORDINATOR

WA. This year, we were fortunate enough to hear Archie Roach perform Took the Children Away, an emotional and moving moment that will stay with us forever.

At CBC Fremantle, as part of the Indigenous Education programme, we provide opportunities and experiences aimed at fostering a higher level of knowledge and pride in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander histories, cultures and contributions. These cultural experiences are valuable for the formation of the CBC gentleman, and equip students with the knowledge, values and connections needed to contribute to the reconciliation of the nation. These experiences include NAIDOC Week activities, National Sorry Day, the Kiwirrkurra Immersion, Australian Indigenous Mentoring Experience (AIME) tutor squad and leadership conferences.

NAIDOC Week at CBC gets bigger every year due to the support of staff and students, who are hungry to learn about and celebrate one of the richest and oldest continuing cultures in the world. This year, our Year 7 to 9 Aboriginal students embraced roles to assist in organising, running and presenting NAIDOC events around the College. They did a fantastic job, and I am proud of all they achieved and their role in shaping the minds of others. Events included a celebration assembly with traditional dance and flag raising, didgeridoo lessons from Mr Gary Bonney, Woomera practice, face painting, braiding, dot painting in the library, Noongar language competitions, a mixed-team football game with Clontarf Aboriginal College and a Year 7 incursion.

On National Sorry Day, a group of students attended the event at Wellington Square in Perth run by Reconciliation WA, to acknowledge and recognise members of the Stolen Generation and to learn more about Australia’s history. There were activities, information stalls, talks from Aboriginal Elders and performances including traditional dance, connecting and educating thousands of school students from across

A huge thank you to Sharna Ninyette and her team at AIME, Kate Wilkes, Rory Kendell and Isabella Bynevelt.

This amazing team provide our Aboriginal students with fantastic opportunities, fostering a safe environment where students are inspired to strive for excellence, with a strong emphasis on the value of education and leadership. I would also like to thank Mr John Black for all his support throughout the year.

PURSUING EXCELLENCE “THESE GIFTED AND TALENTED STUDENTS ARE ROLE MODELS AMONGST THEIR PEERS AND WILL BECOME LEADERS AND PROBLEM SOLVERS IN OUR FUTURE SOCIETY.” MS MARILYN SCHMIDT ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE PROGRAMME COORDINATOR

A

cademic excellence is far more than good grades!

At CBC Fremantle, it is defined as striving for personal excellence and developing one’s gifts and talents for the good of others, in order to serve humanity.

The criteria to be invited to join the AEP are as follows: a student has to achieve above the 85th percentile in his cohort in at least three of the five core subjects of English, Maths, Science, HASS and Religious Education.

This means that their results are well above the average for their year and testify to their hard work and commitment to their education. These gifted and talented students are role models amongst their peers and will become leaders and problem solvers in our future society.

Every week the members of the AEP take part in activities after school to challenge their thinking, to broaden their knowledge and extend their interests.

They meet and engage with guest speakers from industry and the community. They have the opportunity to attend tours and excursions: locally, nationally and

internationally. Thirty-five very excited AEP students are taking part in the NASA/USA tour in April next year!

AEP groups and activities include: Maths and Engineering, Science and Technology, Literature and Media, Robotics, Debating and Public Speaking and Radio. The AEP Showcase evening in June highlighted some of the work and projects that these groups of boys from Year 7 to 10 had been working on during the year. The senior boys attended and participated in the UWA Exploring Engineering Day and the Gifted and Talented Conference.

The programme would not be possible if it were not for the exceptional staff members involved in coordinating the various groups. Thank you to each one for their invaluable contributions.

I would like to remind all the AEP students to embrace their gifts and abilities, to continue to apply themselves to make the best use of these gifts and, in the words of JF Kennedy, always to strive for excellence, “Not because it is easy but because it is hard.”

DEFINING THE TOPIC MS SHOSHANNA BEINS & MRS SHAYNI NELSON DEBATING AEP COORDINATORS

The Debating season commenced in March and we welcomed a few new faces to the competition this year: Kaelan Riley, Alexander Buckland, Archer Larwood and Jason Mack. These teams competed every second Wednesday evening throughout Term 2 and committed to meetings in which they brainstormed ideas, researched and then wrote speeches on increasingly difficult topics.

The teams debated some difficult topics such as: • Computers should be banned in high schools, • Organ donation should be compulsory, and • Facebook should actively promote socially progressive content on users’ feeds.

In one debate, the Novice team, consisting of Nicolas De Bari (Year 7) and Kaelan Riley and Raphael McCracken (both year 8) were very narrowly defeated by one point in their debate arguing that nuclear energy should be banned. It was an extremely high level

debate with students demonstrating their strong understanding of the different types of energy and fuels and the impact of life and environment. Nicholas received the highest mark out of all of the debaters.

Some examples of the Junior team’s work include the debate for the negative on compulsory organ donation, and they were also narrowly inched out by the thin margin of one point. With five minutes to the beginning of the debate, the boys were without a second speaker so Alexander Buckland (Year 10), who was there early for his second debate, stepped in and delivered an excellent speech with some solid rebuttal. He then went on to participate in the second debate of the night for his own team. With the same topic, the second Junior debate proved to be a nail-biter, with both teams offering excellent models and rebuttal, but in the end they lost by another narrow margin of two points.

The inaugural House Week featured a House Debating competition, pitting debate team members against each other for House pride and points. Thanks must be given to the Academic Prefects who assisted in adjudicating the debates, as well as all the staff and students who were in attendance. The House Debating final was held on Friday 17 March involving Samson

and Morgan debating the need for, and obsession with, Reality Television. Morgan’s team, comprised of Griffin Williams, Lachlan Legge and Jacob Fitzpatrick narrowly won the contest against Nicholas De Bari, Digby Marshall and Ned Marshall in Samson. We are looking forward to continuing this activity in next year’s House Week.

This year we invited representatives from the Western Australian Debating League to run workshops with our students, developing general debate skills including rebuttal and signposting the team’s case. There was also a particular focus on building the students’ case. The boys developed invaluable techniques that will definitely aid their season next year.

A special thank you must be afforded to the parents and supporters of the debaters this season, who provide constant encouragement and confidence for the students.

In addition, our Debating Prefect Jacob Fitzpatrick (Year 12) offered his time and expertise to the young debaters, brainstorming with the Novice team and editing speeches. A final thank you to the staff at the College who came along to support the boys on debating nights.

This year the Robotics club welcomed a number of Year 7 and 8 students who wanted the challenge of programming robots to follow lines and pick up cans. What a great bunch of lads! It has been a privilege to watch them teeming like ants around robot parts every Tuesday afternoon. I applaud the perseverance of Jayden Galati, Archie Tither and Matthew Vasta and eye-catching contributions from Oliver Bell, Fynnian Copp and Jason Mack.

Veterans Charlie Bell and Rohan Groves regularly provided help to the novices while Michael Chalmers and Fletcher Evans stepped into leadership roles by making sure students were working in their groups with a functioning robot and diligently packed up at the end of each session.

THE MAGIC OF MATHS MS MARILYN SCHMIDT MATHS & ENGINEERING AEP COORDINATOR

Everyone agrees that we need young people who are innovative, resilient, problem-solvers and critical thinkers. To achieve this, there has been a national call for Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) to become a priority in schools.

STEM education is an approach to learning where rigorous academic concepts are coupled with real-world problems as students apply science, technology, engineering, and mathematics in contexts that make connections between school, community and work. The Maths & Engineering group focussed on this approach this year and it has been a fantastic way for our students to learn.

The first term activities consisted of developing Maths problem-solving skills both individually and collaboratively.

During the second term, the boys designed and built remote controlled cars using Meccano. This project proved to be challenging as the boys grappled with the laws of physics, creative design and mechanical engineering.

The ECU Gecko Coding programme kept the boys engaged and challenged during the third term.

After a few weeks of learning the skills involved in connecting circuits, breadboards and Arduinos and basic coding, the boys worked in groups designing their own games. We all, including the teachers, gained an appreciation for the time and complexity of coding! Well done to Liam Davis, Ben Leavy, James Morris and James Nelson on their excellent projects.

The year ended with investigating Maths geometrical constructions. Perpendicular bisectors, inscribed and circumscribed circles, arcs, segments and sectors all became part of the boys’ vocabulary and skills base.

To quote Dr Alan Finkel, Australia’s Chief Scientist: “Nobody can say where expertise in mathematics might take you. How could they, when there’s no limit to the ways in which those skills can be applied, or missions that mathematicians will be called on to serve?”

GLIMPSING THE FUTURE MR IAN BINET SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY AEP COORDINATOR The Science & Technology group was exposed to various physical science concepts throughout the year with the students performing a number of experiments and participating in competitions.

One of the biggest events was the solar car challenge.

Students spent a number of weeks designing and building their vehicles, competing against each other to produce a car that can race along a fixed length and only powered by the sun.

Two of our Year 8 students, Lachlan Klingberg and James Nelson, also competed in the state wide competition, placing second in the semi-final with a solid car in adverse cloudy conditions, and securing a spot in the Grand Final at King’s Park. Unfortunately the team didn’t win the title, but their hard work and dedication is to be commended.

In all of the experiments and challenges, all of the boys were remarkable in combining their skills from other disciplines to come up with novel designs and solutions to problems. Thank you to all of the students for their commitment and perseverance!

It was a big learning curve and there were some hiccups but by third term they were doing a wonderful job.

MS TREVANNA COOPER RADIO AEP COORDINATOR

Our year started well with many new recruits to learn about the art of broadcasting, which brought our numbers to 30. This meant a lot of new training both for the new students and the older ones who had to step up to become producers – 11 in total.

By Term 2 Radio was operating smoothly. The boys produced a professional presentation for the Academic Excellence evening, which really made the event shine, and shows were happening at lunchtimes at least three times a week.

THE MARVEL OF THE ARTS “OVER THE YEAR, EACH EVENT, EACH REHEARSAL AND EACH LESSON HAS BEEN AN OPPORTUNITY FOR ARTS STUDENTS, THEIR FAMILIES AND THE WIDER COLLEGE COMMUNITY TO ‘DISCOVER THE BEAUTY OF CREATION’.”

MRS EMMA TANDY HEAD OF THE ARTS (TERM 2 AND 3)

O

ften, at the start of lessons, I remind the students that there is much more good in the world than bad. I share my prayer intention with them – that we each may be the good in our world as eloquently expressed by Pope Francis.

“The arts give expression to the beauty of the faith and proclaim the Gospel message of the grandeur of God’s creation. When we admire a work of art or a marvel of nature, we discover how everything speaks to us of Him and of His love.

That artists of our time, through their creativity, may help us discover the beauty of creation”.

Prayer Intention of Pope Francis, August 2017 In the month of August as he uttered this prayer, the Arts students of CBC were busy with a number of events which were the culmination of their year’s work to date.

In Visual Arts a number of students had their work exhibited in the Angelico Exhibition; Year 12 students were working hard to complete their final practical submissions, and planning was underway for the College Art Exhibition held in Term 4.

Drama students were involved in the Theatresports programme; others attended the Bell Shakespeare CBC 2017

97

production of Macbeth, and many performed Monologues, duologues and group pieces for their friends and families at the diverse and inspiring College production, Dramarama.

Music students were busy with a number of performances both at school and also representing our College at the Catholic Performing Arts Festival. Months of rehearsing, individual lessons and our very productive Music camp in Term 2 resulted in polished performances.

All of these activities and much more is made possible by the talent and generosity of spirit of Ms Zoe Francis, Mrs Stephanie Hantzis and Mrs Rosalba Jeffreys, who give so much in the pursuit of engaging and developing the minds and hearts of the students of CBC Fremantle.

Mr Shane Mancuso enjoyed two terms of long service leave this year, yet his planning and vision for the Arts at the College were evident throughout his absence – a testament to his commitment to the students of CBC Fremantle.

Over the year, each event, each rehearsal and each lesson has been an opportunity for Arts students, their families and the wider College community to “discover the beauty of creation”.

FUN AND GAMES IN DRAMA MRS ROSALBA JEFFREYS DRAMA TEACHER

The introduction to Drama with Year 7 elective units provides a taste of performing and theory of drama, and is quite a challenge for some students. Along with the Year 8 cohort, the Theatresports programme assists them to step outside their comfort zone with playful techniques, positive group work and imaginative improvisation. It is designed to engage the students in a fun and supportive way and really get them fired up!

Many Drama students take advantage of excursions to the Heath Ledger State Theatre or UWA’s Dolphin Theatre. In addition, to make plays accessible to as many as possible, Bell Shakespeare Company and others visit the College and perform in the ALA. This year it was Shakespeare is Dead, which proved to be a very humorous resurrection of Shakespeare and his flights of imagination combined with student and staff interaction. Live theatre is a novelty for many students and a great experience, getting them away from screen entertainment and introducing them to a form of expression that appeals to the physical nature of boys.

One of the highlights of the class work this year was Dramarama – an evening showcasing students’ work with varied arrangements of different styles of performances by some of the 2017 Drama students.

These comprised original plays, interpretations of classics and large and small group work. Some brave students stepped up to tackle daunting monologues, which is quite a challenge and very much appreciated by the CBC community.

I take this opportunity to thank all the parents who assisted with Dramarama this year and look forward to having another grand time with the Drama students in 2018.

A VISUAL FEAST MS ZOE FRANCIS AND MRS STAVROULA HANTZIS ART TEACHERS

The year was full of enthusiasm, challenges and exciting new directions for the Visual Art department.

Art students from Years 7 to 12 worked hard to develop a diverse range of visual inspirations from the studio areas of drawing, painting, printmaking, ceramics, photography and mixed media artworks.

CBC Visual Arts students were included in the annual Angelico Art Exhibition which saw a number of boys and their families from Years 8 to 12 attend the opening and support their success. Luke Mertens and Toby Tomlinson (Year 12), Harry O’Neill and Scott Urbano (Year 11), Conor Larranaga-Boyle (Year 10 ) and a Year 8 group consisting of Archie Tither, Dante Heinzle, Max Wilson, Harrison Gee, Malachi McCracken, Moss Ridge, Jack Cameron and Aston Culnane, all had exemplary entries and work displayed.

In Term 2 Year 10 students worked in conjunction with the Lions Club of Fremantle to design Fremantle inspired logos to decorate the show bags provided to guests at their centenary celebrations and a number of boys had their work selected for printing and exhibition at this event. We thank the Lions Club Fremantle for allowing us to be involved, especially Mrs Dora Bushe-Jones who took regular time to see the students’ work in progress.

The highlight of the year for the Visual Arts department is the annual exhibition in Term 4. Year 7 students impressed us with their watercolour painting abilities and upcycled sculpture creations. The Semester 1 Year 8 artists created self-portrait tonal drawings and colourful

CBC 2017

paintings on wood. In second semester the boys enhanced their ceramic skills through a series of technique based exercises which prepared them for their final Japanese inspired clay work. Year 9 students participated in a year-long elective for Visual Art, creating a variety of pieces including scratchboard and etching prints based on historic architecture, animal and bird exploratory drawing and paintings inspired by local Fremantle artist Anya Brock, and music hero tonal portraits on wood boards. The Year 10 students created expressive medium scale fluid wire sculptures based on the human form and relationships, worked on the Lions’ logo project and also produced tonal portraits of artists on wood board.

We saw the return of the master classes for a total of two hours per week for 10 weeks in Term 2 and 3 with local artist Peter Barker. The Year 11 ATAR students participated enthusiastically, learning valuable skills.

Our senior students worked tirelessly, gaining many new skills from spray paint and acrylic to charcoal on linen and installations. Special mention must go to three of our Year 12 ATAR students, Luke Mertens, Toby Tomlinson and Thomas Gleeson; their achievements this year were original and outstanding. Working in different medium for each of their two projects, these three boys produced studio works that were challenging and captivating.

Luke Mertens won the 2017 Principal’s Award at the College’s Visual Art exhibition with his mixed media spraying installation piece, and a number of students from Years 7 to 12 received Excellence in Art Awards for their commitment and dedication to the programme this year.

Congratulations to all the students who participated enthusiastically in the Visual Arts; your work and attitude were exemplary.

A LOVE OF LANGUAGE “IT IS HEART-WARMING THAT MANY YOUNG PEOPLE ARE ENGAGED IN THE WORLD AROUND THEM AND WANT TO MAKE A POSITIVE IMPACT, AND THAT THEY CAN TURN TO THE WRITTEN WORD TO COMMUNICATE THEIR FEELINGS.” MRS KERRY FAICHNEY HEAD OF ENGLISH

R

aising the profile of English studies continues to be on the radar at CBC and this year we embarked on a number of initiatives to enhance opportunities for the students to engage in effective communication modes.

that many young people are engaged in the world around them and want to make a positive impact, and that they can turn to the written word to communicate their feelings.

In Term 3, Languages Week was celebrated with a love of reading. ‘Teacher Hot Reads’ provided opportunities for students to talk to their teachers about the sorts of books that they like to read and why. Teachers also dressed as their favourite book characters one day and Mary Poppins, the cast of The Wizard of Oz, Harry Potter, wicked witches, Katniss and the Three Amigos all wandered around campus creating a lot of fun.

The Year 9 Extension class visited UWA to engage in a Bell Shakespeare production of Macbeth. An experience such as this reinforces to students that they can engage in classic literature even though they may find the content and language challenging.

Year 8 students participated in Oracy, engaging in topics and readings of interest. This is a great way for students to consider how to express themselves and create a meaningful and engaging production for an audience. There is much to be gained from this form of communication as it develops maturity in thought, structure, delivery and confidence.

Said Poet’s Society visited Year 10 classes, providing the students with an insight into a different medium for expressing thoughts, ideas and experiences.

The students were inspired to try their hand at writing their own slam poems. It is heart-warming

Year 12 students visited His Majesty’s Theatre to view a production of Orwell’s classic 1984. It was a confronting and engaging production that was a culmination of the dystopian genre unit the students had been studying in Semester 1.

In my first year at the College, I have enjoyed the collaborative, co-operative way that the CBC English department operates. I thank the team for their work, passion and energy this year.

his year the HASS department has had a great deal of success, highlighting the diversity of the Learning Area and providing students with engaging methods of learning in a fun and supportive environment.

• •

The highlights of the year included: •

•

•

HASS week with CBC staff wandering around in historic costume and a Kahoot challenge that pitted teachers against students, as well as various other quizzes and competitions.

The HASS department presented numerous Personal Excellence awards to students in Years 7 to 10. These students showed great work ethic, participation and personal best in their HASS learning.

A fantastic performance in the National Geography Competition with a significant number of students receiving Distinctions and High Distinctions.

The HASS staff implemented the final stages of the Australian Curriculum and students were involved in a variety of learning experiences both inside and outside of the classroom. These included:

•

•

The Year 7 students studied Ancient India, Water and Liveability, Business and Citizenship.

Year 8 students studied Geography, Medieval Europe, Human Rights and an introduction to Economics.

The highlights of the Year 8 programme included the World Fair where students demonstrated their learning about different countries around the world, the Swan River field trip and a study of Indigenous culture at Kings Park.

The Year 9 students were involved in a number of valuable learning experiences in units such as Law, Government, World War 1, Geography and Business.

The Year 10 students were involved in four disciplines that explored the different forms of government, World War 2, Environmental Issues and Economics.

They were also been actively involved in selecting Year 11 subjects from the Humanities & Social Sciences.

Year 11 and 12 students were primarily involved in their particular learning for their selected courses.

The Geography students were involved in a number of field trips and an Amazing Race around the City of Perth.

Year 11 Business Management & Enterprise students held a fantastic market day where they learnt a lot about running a business in the food and beverage industry and Year 12 students diligently prepared for their ATAR exams.

This year the HASS Department was joined by Mr Gary Bonney who was a great asset for the Learning Area and the College. A sincere thanks must go to all the Humanities & Social Sciences team who have worked tirelessly to provide our students with extremely valuable experiences throughout the year. They have achieved this through outstanding pedagogy and dedication to their profession.

We look forward to a great 2018 in the HASS department with new challenges and new learning experiences.

IL BELPAESE “OVER THE COURSE OF THE YEAR, STUDENTS HAVE BEEN EXPOSED TO MANY DIVERSE ACTIVITIES IN THE ITALIAN CLASSROOM WHICH HAS HEIGHTENED THE EXCITEMENT OF LEARNING THE LANGUAGE.” MRS SILVIA ROMAGNOLI ITALIAN TEACHER

I

t is always great fun to be able to immerse ourselves in all things Italian for the College’s Language Week.

This year, we transformed the Cloisters into an Italian piazza where the CBC boys had the opportunity to experience il Belpaese, in a variety of ways. The atmosphere was fantastic with live accordion music playing while students challenged teams to bocce on the grass, admired Italian design at its best with a visit from some glamorous and shiny Ferraris and enjoyed mouth-watering Italian food.

Over the course of the year, students have been exposed to many diverse activities in the Italian classroom which has heightened the excitement of learning the language. Furthermore, in the classes we were fortunate to have a native Italian Language assistant from an Italian university who helped the students increase their language skills and fulfil their curiosity about the country’s contemporary culture and trends.

This year the Italian teaching was enhanced by the presence of three exchange students: Emiliano,

Gioele and Lorenzo, who delighted students and teachers with their witty presence and challenged the boys’ confidence in speaking Italian. Although their stay was short, they left a lasting memory, especially amongst their Year 11 peers.

With 113 students over four classes, the Year 7 students displayed a genuine passion to learn the language. The boys blitzed the easy tasks, such as learning the alphabet and basic conversation skills, and worked extra hard on learning some more difficult components of the language such as describing themselves and their family and talking about their favourite things. They definitely were challenged in presenting themselves for their speaking task!

It was a wonderful sign to see 79 students continue with their Italian studies in Year 8 and the students enjoyed increasing their linguistic skills. Naturally, these young men related very well to the Italian food and are really becoming sophisticated 112

the language they are learning while having some fun and meeting new people.

The Year 9 students enjoyed going into more depth with content and grammar. The concepts became more complex and the tasks became more difficult, but the boys took on the opportunity to challenge themselves, smiling the whole time.

The Year 12 Italian students are now experienced practitioners of the language. They had the opportunity to go on a three day language immersion at the Italian camp, where they not only practised the language with many activities and games but also learnt how to make pasta from scratch. They are to be congratulated on their dedication and commitment to their studies, and we wish them well for their future.

The Year 10 boys enjoyed an all-round learning experience, embracing different topics and grammar challenges. In Term 3 they had the opportunity to share their speaking skills and language passion with Santa Maria College girls for an afternoon of Italian activities and food.

The Year 11 boys focussed on their ATAR course and enjoyed the learning throughout the year. In Term 4 they met Santa Maria College Italian students and challenged their speaking skills to communicate with others outside of class time It really assisted in increasing their passion and knowledge for CBC 2017

THE IDEA SHOP “THE IDEA SHOP IS STILL AVERAGING 100 TO 150 STUDENTS BEFORE SCHOOL, AT RECESS AND LUNCHTIME.” MS TREVANNA COOPER LIBRARIAN

I

t has been an interesting year in the Idea Shop; perhaps even the first year that we have truly realised our ambition of encouraging boys to be creative, think outside the box and learn new skills. There have been many new workshops, sometimes offered by ex-students who were willing to share their creative talents with others.

Broden Oliveri (Old Boy 2013) ran four very successful workshops, one where the students made mummy skulls, another constructing medieval foam helmets, another painting latex scars on skin and the final one was Comicon with one-on-one costume building. Paul Jardine-Clarke (Old Boy 2016), who is well-known in the College community for his Bond films, ran a fan-fiction club where boys made a short, filmed prequel to a popular book. Kye Mitchell-Bathgate (Year 10) showed the boys how to make fans that ran using a USB device.

Mrs Griffin, who coordinated these Inventorspace activities, showed students how to cut out a design and press it on to a skateboard, varnishing it for a very polished look afterwards. An extension of Inventorspace is the sublimation centre in Ms Cooper’s office where students can print their photos and designs on mugs, tee-shirts, and a whole range of items for cost price, assisted by Mrs Griffin and Ms Eades.

In April, Softlink, a library software company, invited Ms Cooper to present at three webinars, two for users in Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia and Singapore with 73 attendees, and another one for 36 attendees from five European countries, Qatar and South Africa. Ms Cooper shared the system we use to organise and catalogue memorabilia and we were later visited by two staff from Bunbury Catholic College who had watched the first presentation

CBC 2017

and took the opportunity to see how it operates in person. Another success in Term 2 was the making of two ‘Tips for Success’ study advertisements which were displayed on the television in the Library.

In July, Ms Cooper took long service leave and Ms Sue Bateman joined the Library staff. One of her mandates was to find something exciting for the boys for Book Week and she came up with a very successful activity where the boys had to find the answers to hidden questions – a sleuth game based on books and reading. She also organised CY O’Connor’s great-grandson, Michael Lefroy, to tell the story of the Escape of the Catalpa to Year 8 students, and other stories from Fremantle’s colourful history.

Ms Bateman made a great contribution to life in the Idea Shop and the staff were very appreciative. Term 3 also revived the popular Hot Chocolate Tuesday where silent readers at lunchtime received a free hot chocolate.

Our Codebreaker challenge winners this year were Gus Sambrailo and Oliver Bell (Year 7) who overcame competition even from the Year 12 students. During NAIDOC Week, Mr Bonney instructed the boys in the intricacies of dot painting and the prize for the most original was won by Year 12 Adam Turner. Lunchtimes have been enlivened by numerous activities including radio broadcasting, excerpts from 3D movies and a film fest of Paul Jardine-Clarke’s Bond movies to support the release of his latest endeavour, Chrome.

The Idea Shop is still averaging 100 to 150 students before school, at recess and lunchtime. Book borrowing is steady, certainly with the lower years, and plans are in place for next year to challenge students to increase their reading levels.

THE NUMBER GAMES “THERE IS A STRONG MATHS CULTURE AT CBC FREMANTLE AND STUDENTS HAVE A GREAT RESPECT FOR THE SUBJECT THAT IS ENCOURAGED RIGHT FROM YEAR 7.”

MR ANDRE LEICESTER HEAD OF MATHEMATICS

I

t was another excellent year in Mathematics at CBC, with the achievement of outstanding results in Olympiads and competitions, as well as the excellent results our students accomplished in their assessments.

Every one of our Mathematics teachers engaged this year in subject specific professional development, which allowed them to create and implement new teaching strategies in their classrooms. Their reflective practices and collaborative approach ensures that the Mathematics department continues to move forward as a cohesive team, keeping up with current teaching standards and meeting all of the new Australian Curriculum requirements.

AUSTRALIAN SENIOR CURRICULUM AND CBC TRENDS The introduction of the new Australian Senior Curriculum in Western Australia during 2016 saw a drop in the numbers of students choosing harder mathematics subjects. This has not been the case at CBC Fremantle, where the number of students choosing Mathematical Methods and Mathematics Specialist courses remained high in comparison to other schools.

In 2016, 70% of the Year 11 cohort were enrolled in ATAR courses for mathematics, while this

year the figure increased to 74%, which signifies that our boys are encouraged to attempt harder mathematical subjects and are prepared to give it a go. There is a strong maths culture at CBC Fremantle and students have a great respect for the subject that is encouraged right from Year 7.

MATHS HELP Maths Help is run twice per week after school and offers individual tutoring to all students irrespective of year group or pathway. Students continue to make excellent use of this service with many of them attending regularly.

On Wednesdays the teachers available were Miss Tognolini, Mrs Andrew and Mr Leicester, while on Thursdays the teachers available were Ms Schmidt, Mr Jones, Mr Kennedy and Mr Peris.

Every student had their respective classroom teacher present at different times which made it even easier to cater for each student’s individual needs and provide effective support.

HAVE SUM FUN COMPETITION CBC Fremantle participates every year in the Have Sum Fun maths competition organised by the Mathematical

116

CBC 2017

Association of WA (MAWA). This year the event was separated into three categories: Junior for Years 7 and 8, Intermediate for Years 9 and 10, and Senior for Years 11 and 12. All three events occurred on a Friday evening during Term 1, and our Mathematics Extension students volunteered to attend, giving up their time to participate and represent our College. Only one team of six students is supposed to compete, but CBC Fremantle was permitted to enter two teams given the large number of students who wished to participate.

The Senior teams were formed by Ari Brierly-Figueiredo, Saad Fallah, Joshua Hardbottle, Preston Hinton, Justin Oliveri, Harry O’Neill (Year 11), and Anthony Cammarano, Luke Carbonaro, Jayden Goncalves, Finlay Martin, Henry Rogerson and Samuel Sheridan (Year 12). A special mention goes to Hayden Redmond (Year 11) and Julian Phillips (Year 12) for standing in as back-ups for the event.

The Intermediate teams were formed by Lucas Benino, Heron Carson, Joseph Davies, Archer Larwood, James Oliveri and Jackson Young (Year 9), and Indy Greget-O’Dea, Zachary Earl, Daniel Page, Jack Prigg and Hayden Symington (Year 10).

The Junior team was formed by Jonah Auriemma, Jake Vearing, Luke Wyatt in (Year 7) and Ryan Bowater, Aaron Ricciardi and Joseph Vykopal in (Year 8).

AUSTRALIAN MATHS COMPETITION The AMC is an international competition throughout Oceania where only the very best students are encouraged to take part. CBC Fremantle participates every year and all of the students in the Mathematics Extensions classes complete the question paper during their maths lesson. Of the 172 students who participated this year, we were very proud to see that 56% of the boys received a Credit or Distinction, which represents a considerable increase from previous years’ results.

THE GREAT OUTDOORS “MARINE WILDLIFE, ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION AND MINIMAL IMPACT PRACTISES WERE A FOCUS BOTH IN CLASS AND ON LOCATION, HELPING BUILD THE STUDENTS’ UNDERSTANDING AND RELATIONSHIP WITH NATURE.” MR STEPHEN HUNTER COORDINATOR OF SPORT

O

utdoor Education at CBC Fremantle allows students to challenge themselves in a variety of outdoor activities, which teaches many skills including teamwork, organisation and environmental awareness, as well as fostering confidence and resilience.

Year 8 Outdoor Education was a popular selection this year with more than half the Year 8 cohort selecting it as one of their semester electives. With marinebased activities prominent in future years, students were introduced to water safety and awareness. They completed an eBronze online course run through the Royal Life Saving Society and practical lessons at Fremantle swimming pool. Following the marine safety unit, students participated in games designed to develop teamwork and group cohesion, interpersonal skills, environmental knowledge and campcraft skills.

In Year 9, students participated in surf rescue, body boarding, navigation and roping units. With each activity, there are associated risks and challenges, and students are introduced to risk assessment and planning. For surf rescue, we visited Leighton Surf Club, where the students were shown rescue techniques and were generously provided with all the necessary equipment. Later in the year, students developed basic navigation and roping skills, which are a great stepping-stone for units in later years.

Year 10 had a strong marine focus with snorkelling and fishing units, and they explored local ocean ecosystems, learnt about minimal impact practises and developed their knowledge on risk assessment. Following on from Year 8 and 9, the students completed a Bronze Medallion Award, adding to their skills from previous marine safety units. At the end of the year, the Year 10

118

CBC 2017

students finished with rock climbing, making use of our wall in the gymnasium. This was a highlight for many students, whether it was the challenge of racing to the top, conquering a trepidation of heights, or just the chance to develop trust belaying their peers. Overall, the Year 10 course aimed to teach students skills they can use later in life, and give them the chance to experience what the outdoors has to offer. In lower school, there is a focus on participation and enjoyment, as well building knowledge in risk management, sustainability, minimal impact practises and general knowledge.

In Year 11, students competed the General OED course and commenced their Certificate II in Outdoor Recreation.

In Term 1, students revisited snorkelling, developing more advanced skills at locations including North Mole, Omeo Shipwreck, Coogee, Cottesloe Marine Park, Bathers Beach, Marmion Marine Park and Mettams Pool. Marine wildlife, environmental conservation and minimal impact practises were a focus both in class and on location, helping build the students’ understanding and relationship with nature. To conclude the snorkelling unit, both Year 11 classes departed for a two-night camp on Rottnest Island. Boasting the best snorkelling in the metro area, the students explored various beaches, dive trails and reef structures, as well as trying their luck at fishing.

The highlight for many was the exciting night dive at The Basin, a memory that will stay with them forever.

In Semester 2, the boys visited the Marine Education Boatshed to complete their Recreational Skipper’s Ticket (RST) and develop canoeing skills. The RST training was CBC 2017

119

a mix of theory and practical training, with the opportunity to drive the boats a highlight. After gaining their RST, the students started canoeing and practised stroke technique, rescues and manoeuvres in preparation for the day expedition up river. For the trip, we travelled to Nannup and spent three days isolated from the public and out of reception, camping and canoeing along the Blackwood River. The moving water and beautiful scenery made this a wonderful way to end the year.

In the final year of Outdoor Education at CBC the Year 12 students completed Units 3 and 4 General and Certificate II in Outdoor Recreation. The boys further developed their knots to fully understand abseil and rock climbing set-ups. Gaining trust in each other and the equipment is a great challenge to overcome. All students completed a full day of climbing and abseiling at Churchman’s Brook and finalised the unit with a threeday expedition, walking part of the Cape to Cape and spending a day at Wilyabrup Cliffs. The short walk and the 48m abseil was a great experience for the boys.

In the final semester the Year 12 students focused on sailing units at the Marine Education Boatshed.

After many hours of learning to sail, the boys were prepared for a three-day voyage. Camping at Pelican Point for two nights allowed the boys to travel up river, visiting Elizabeth Quay, past the new stadium and into Claisebrook.

A WEALTH OF HEALTH “STUDENTS HAVE CONTINUED TO ENJOY SPORT SCIENCE AT CBC AND THE FOCUS ON THE THEORETICAL ASPECTS HAS ENCOURAGED STUDENTS TO IMPROVE THEIR OWN PERFORMANCES OUTSIDE OF THE SCHOOL ENVIRONMENT.” MR ZACHARY PRESTON HEAD OF PHYSICAL & HEALTH EDUCATION

P

hysical & Health Education has experienced a very busy and rewarding year and students had the opportunity to experience a wide range of activities across the subjects offered in the PE and Health area. Upper school students worked extremely hard in their ATAR and General Subjects, along with students achieving their Certificate II in Sport and Recreation and Certificate II in Outdoor Recreation. There has been a focus across the curriculum in 2017 to engage students in game sense education, which concentrates more on strategies and movement than specific skills and drills. Students really enjoyed this approach in Physical Education and looked forward to using these techniques across their different sporting pursuits.

HEALTH EDUCATION Over the past few years the Health Education curriculum has changed to using a more ’strength-based’ approach during lessons and the curriculum, which moves away from just learning facts and leans more towards educating students in how to deal with real situations and what would they do to make healthy choices. We believe that if we provide students with the tools to deal with a situation, whether it is drugs, alcohol or even just sun protection, they will more than likely make correct choices when they are faced with them.

The department supported Men’s Health Week at the College with activities designed to explore the

120

CBC 2017

different ways men and boys keep physically and emotionally healthy. The male staff joined in the fun, highlighting the significance of healthy living for men of all ages, running a 1500m circuit with the students and challenging them to a boisterous game of volleyball.

The Year 7 Sexual Health information evening is going from strength to strength with more than 70 fathers joining their sons on a fantastic evening where the relationship building was invaluable.

Year 10 students have had a plethora of outstanding guest speakers in 2017 with the RAC and the Paraplegic Benefit Fund speaking about driver’s education, and Headspace and Black Dog on a Lead discussing mental health issues and resilience.

SPORT SCIENCE Students have continued to enjoy Sport Science at CBC and the focus on the theoretical aspects has encouraged students to improve their own performances outside of the school environment. From Year 8 to Year 10, students committed to putting the theory of Sport Science into their practical classes. Boys have been learning a wide range of sports, which include Squash, Gridiron, Netball and Modcrosse.

PHYSICAL EDUCATION STUDIES Following on from Sport Science in Years 8 to 10, students in Year 11 and 12 Physical Education Studies have developed their knowledge and understanding

CBC 2017

121

to a more complex level. Students throughout the two years have also successfully completed several coaching courses and their Senior First Aid. To finish off the year, the Year 11 ATAR students had an opportunity to join the Perth Wildcats for a training session and game day where CBC Old Boy and now Wildcats’ coaching staff member Jacob Chance and Coach Trevor Gleeson presented on aspects on being in an elite sporting programme.

A huge thanks to the Physical & Health Education staff: Mr Neil Alweyn, Mrs Vanessa Bacich, Mr Ian Binet, Mr John Black, Mr Brent Butcher, Mrs Nicole Christie, Mr Adrian Correia, Mrs Larrisa Dodsworth, Mrs Stavroula Hantzis, Mr Stephen Hunter, Mrs Rosalba Jeffreys, Mr Daniel Kennedy, Mrs Keely Laing, Mr Justin Leech, Mr Jason Matthews, Mr Louis Miller, Ms Leanne Ogden, Mr Jeremy Peris, Mr Christopher Pietroniro, Mr Anthony Rawnsley, Mr Patrick Ryan, Mr Matthew Stockton, Mr Adryan Winnan, and Mr Michael Woodcock.

One of the most exciting events with any Science enthusiast at the College is Science Week! This year

122

CBC 2017

we ran some exciting incursions. Our Year 7 and 8 classes were exposed to Western Australian birds of prey, our Year 9 boys were challenged to design and build devices that would reduce our impact on the environment by using recycled materials, and our Year 10 students designed marvellous machines using repurposed industrial by-products. There were also exciting lunchtime experiments: liquid nitrogen was used to shatter bananas and eggs and to make instant gelato, hydrogen and thermite explosions were used to demonstrate some exciting exothermic reactions, and a very informative rat dissection was performed for those with strong stomachs. We also screened our inaugural SCIENEMA International Science Film Festival.

Providing some local inspiration, the Year 12 Chemistry class visited Kwinana to tour the CSBP and Kleenheat Gas factories, where the students attended lectures from senior engineers and were shown some fundamental aspects of plant operation.

A little further afield, the Year 11 Physics class visited the Gingin Gravity Waves Observatory where they recreated some famous gravitational experiments and were exposed to cosmological concepts ranging from those of indigenous Australians to the most recent theories regarding the Big Bang Theory and inflation.

The Year 11 Biology class went to Lake Joondalup for their annual fieldwork, trying out their practical skills with water testing, vertebrae sampling and a site survey.

They also teamed up with the Year 12 Human Biology class for a trip to Perth Zoo where the Year 12 students studied primates in the context of evolutionary studies and the Year 11 class focussed on Brilliant Biodiversity.

Our Integrated Science students also had many excursions this year, ranging from forensics at the ChemCentre to the study of the commercialisation of cosmetic products, and visited the Canning River Eco Education Centre to have a closer look at water health.

We thank Mrs Amelia Andrew, Mrs Chantelle Edwards, Dr Aidan Holohan, Mr John Hortense, Mrs Alana Edwards, Mr Louis Miller, Mrs Meagan Musson, Mrs Nirmala Narayanann, Mr Anthony Rawnsley and Mrs Petrina Richmond for their hard work and promotion of the sciences. Of course, we must also give thanks to our wonderful students for the enthusiasm and effort they put in to their Science studies this year. Well done!

TECHNOLOGIES “STUDENTS THRIVE ON ACTION, AND THIS YEAR SOME PARTICULARLY CREATIVE AND INNOVATIVE PROJECTS HAVE BEEN PRODUCED THAT HAS MAINTAINED A REAL SENSE OF EXCITEMENT IN THE BILL HUGHES TECHNOLOGY CENTRE.” MR CRAIG JORDAN TECHNOLOGY & ENTERPRISE COORDINATOR MR JOHN REAR HEAD OF TECHNOLOGIES

echnologies at CBC continues to evolve and grow with the addition of new equipment to keep the students abreast with industry standard procedures and trends. Students thrive on the action in the workshops, and this year some particularly creative and innovative projects have been produced that has maintained a real sense of excitement in the Bill Hughes Technology Centre.

DESIGN It has been another busy year in the Design and Technology subject area. This year we have seen the introduction of the new Junior Workshop, which was custom built at the end of 2016 to facilitate lower school woodwork classes, and reduce the demand on the main woodwork room due to the increasing numbers of students choosing woodwork. The new room has been a valuable addition to our facilities and can even double as a classroom when needed!

The workshops have been hives of activity all year, with students of all ages taking advantage of the wonderful facilities of the school due to upgrades over the last few years. Students have made projects from small model toys, to furniture items such as beautiful Jarrah tables and entertainment units in woodwork, and gardening tools to outdoor furniture and water features in metalwork.

Catering has continued its boom of popularity under the watchful eyes of Ms Calanni and Mrs Howard.

Classes have experienced maximum student numbers, and participants are the envy of the school when they bring their lesson’s cooking down to the yard to eat in front of their friends. Students learn important skills from kitchen hygiene to making their own international cuisine masterpiece. Food presentation has been especially fun, and the students have enjoyed decorating cakes and plating their presentations like a pro!

Thank you to all of the Design and Technology staff for all their efforts in another successful year. Thank you

also to the students who have stepped outside their comfort zones to push themselves to achieve their personal excellence with their projects. Well done!

DIGITAL The beginning of 2017 saw the implementation of the Australian Curriculum across the Year 7 to 10 courses. The Digital Technologies staff began the process of updating our content in lower school during Term 4 last year and all courses were implemented on day one. As with all new courses, we experienced a few minor issues that have now been addressed for the second run in 2018.

We maintained a focus on multimedia for all the new courses but are beginning to add more coding as part of the content. We are currently meeting the curriculum guidelines for this aspect of Digital Technologies but are looking to increase the profile of coding with each review of our courses. App development is also now an established part of the curriculum in Year 9.

As with all ATAR bound courses, we have introduced a Year 10 programme that, although in keeping with the curriculum, has been adjusted to reflect more on what can be expected in Year 11 Applied Information Technology (AIT). The course has been well received by the boys and with their feedback we will improve its value as a transition into Year 11.

With almost 700 devices in the college that have the ability to use touch and a pen to interact, we have seen an increasing number of boys opting for the pen as an accessory to their technology use. This is an exciting development as many software vendors are integrating the pen into their programs. Most of the Adobe

CBC 2017

125

products are ‘pen ready’, which now means graphic design can be better integrated into the curriculum.

Our ATAR students from 2016 achieved very pleasing results with almost every boy having AIT qualify to be part of their ATAR score. In addition, our students scored well over the state average for the subject which was particularly pleasing. This year sees an equally talented group preparing to do their best in the 2017 WACE exams.

Our AIT General students also excelled in 2016. Every student gained a Certificate II in Information Technology, with a significant number of boys now studying at TAFE with the view to gaining entrance into university.

I

n 2017 we placed a greater importance on work experience and trade qualifications for our VET students to prepare for the workforce. It was wonderful to integrate Mrs Jennifer Giancaspro join the work placement team. Normally seen behind the Reception desk in Student Services, Mrs Giancaspro brings a wealth of experience in this area from her previous role at another school.

At CBC Fremantle, we offer the INSTEP programme in Year 11, which involves the students working for an employer every Wednesday. Year 12 students completed either TAFE Certificate courses or were engaged in the workplace, which may end up providing them with full-time employment.

These two programmes are recommended for students not immediately targeting university.

There were 83 Certificate II and 83 Certificate IV courses successfully completed by the students at the College this year including Engineering, Technical Graphics,

CBC 2016

127

Woodwork, Sampling & Measurement, Business, ICT, Sport & Recreation and Outdoor Education. I wish to thank an amazing group of teachers who have worked above and beyond their normal teaching load to integrate these certificates into the WACE courses.

This year the ‘Try-a-Trade’ programme provided 20 students in Year 10 with the opportunity to work in a simulated trade environment for three days, including tiling, plastering or bricklaying. This experience is very helpful in guiding their career paths or passion.

As the Year 12 students enter the workforce, the staff at the College looks forward to the many successes and employment opportunities our students achieve. I wish to extend my gratitude to all businesses, families and staff who have assisted in preparing our young men for employment. With your continued support, these opportunities can refocus and guide their goals in their chosen career.

THE ROAD TO KIWIRRKURRA “WHEN ARRIVING AT THE ISOLATED COMMUNITY, OUR BOYS IMAGINED THEIR SERVICE WOULD INSTANTLY BENEFIT THE PEOPLE, BUT THEY SOON REALISED THEY WERE THE ONES WHO WERE GAINING FROM THE EXPERIENCE.” MR JASON MATTHEWS INDIGENOUS EDUCATION COORDINATOR

T

he relationship between CBC Fremantle and Kiwirrkurra was first established by the late Mr Mark Walawski, and then continued by the passionate Mr Peter Baldry. Both teachers identified a need for the young men of CBC to step past the College gates and immerse themselves in one of the richest cultures in the world. The close-knit community of Kiwirrkurra is one of the most remote communities in Australia, located in the Gibson Desert, and this year, 10 Year 11 students and three staff took the opportunity to attend the annual immersion.

Having to travel a considerable distance, students flew to Telfer, packed the bus and hit the red dirt road to Kiwirrkurra. The first day is a full day of driving, but a highlight for many was pulling off road and setting up camp for the night. Sleeping in swags, cooking on the campfire and staring

at the stars is an experience in itself and the perfect way to start the immersion.

Day 2 we drove into Kiwirrkurra and word spread of our arrival as local children rushed to greet us. Instantly connections were established; two groups of kids separated by distance and from different cultures, becoming instant friends and ignoring any barriers put up by society.

While in Kiwirrkurra students experienced life in a remote school, rotating through classes and assisting with duties a teacher faces on a daily basis. Outside the

130

CBC 2017

school, students volunteered in the women’s centre making meals for the sick and elderly. Although the act of making a meal and delivering it to community members was a rewarding challenge, the real value came as students met elders along the way.

The elders of Kiwirrkurra took children and staff from both schools out for the day and we learned how to hunt for goanna and grubs, listened to Dreamtime stories of the region and shared a barbecue of kangaroo tail and grubs. From this magical experience, we began to appreciate the connection the people of Kiwirrkurra have with the land and the wealth of knowledge they hold.

Other highlights of the immersion included attending outdoor Mass spoken entirely in the Pintupi language, visiting landmarks and learning stories, repairing a swing, attending sport games and music events with the children, and visiting the art centre to watch Warlimpirrnga Tjapaltjarri at work. The world famous artist is one of the Pintupi Nine, hailed as ‘the last nomads’ in international press, who walked off the land into Kiwirrkurra in 1984.

When arriving at the isolated community, our boys imagined their service would instantly benefit the people, but they soon realised they were the ones who

CBC 2017

131

were gaining from the experience. After departing and reflecting on our time in Kiwirrkurra, the common understanding was that they all received a rare opportunity and insight, and are called to share what they had learnt with mainstream society, challenge social norms, be advocates for change, highlight injustices and promote reconciliation. An aim of the immersion is for students to come with open hearts and open minds and forget the idea that we go to ‘help.’ We do not go to ‘help’, as that infers the community is not selfsufficient and requires our intervention, which could not be further from the truth. Kiwirrkurra is a strong, culturally rich and supportive community, whose only struggle stems from having to live in a world not inclusive of them, and that rarely takes the time to learn about their ways and culture. With better understanding of the issues facing remote communities and their people, our boys will aim to use their experiences to educate others and open more hearts and minds in the process.

This amazing opportunity would not be possible without the ongoing support of Newcrest Mining and the amazing work they do with community relations and backing this initiative. I would like to thank them for their vision and generosity. I also thank Mrs Petrina Richmond and Ms Emily Bowran for their support, and the staff of Kiwirrkurra Remote School for facilitating the opportunity. Finally a huge thank you to the people of Kiwirrkurra who made us feel welcome from the start and shared their lives and culture with us.

iving amongst the locals in the Philippines was an eye-opening experience for CBC students who travelled to south-east Asia during the October holidays to walk in solidarity with people in need.

Ten CBC boys were accompanied by Mr Garry Hart and Ms Marriann O’Neill to Maasin where they assisted Edmund Rice Ministries with health and life skill programmes to improve circumstances for Filipinos in Maasin.

Brady Santaromita (Year 11) described the adventure as life-changing and were inspired by the service provided by Edmund Rice Ministeries in the community. The Brothers’ consistent use of the mantra, “Look, judge and act” captured the act of service in three words for the boys: Notice the need, ascertain what needs to be done, and do it.

The Edmund Rice Ministries focus not only on helping the locals immediately, they also teach life skills that will sustain the locals in the future. The education of every Filipino child is a major priority within the

132

CBC 2017

Ministries with Brothers Graeme, Vince and Dennis continuing the work of Edmund Rice. Brothers Vince and Graeme are in their 80s and have lived in Africa, Papua New Guinea and now Maasin for decades, and are totally committed to making a difference in their community.

The donations of books that the CBC boys carried all the way to the Philippines were warmly welcomed.

The boys also performed ear and eye checks on children and visited a school for the deaf where they were amazed at the delighted reaction their basic language skills provoked from the locals.

CBC 2017

133

When not in service to the community, the boys took in the sights of Maasin, climbing 230 steps to visit Mama Mary, a massive statue overlooking the sprawling city. A trip on a traditional Filipino outrigger to a small island provided a chance to cool down from the humidity and heat, and the boys didn’t miss any opportunity to play games with the locals.

However, it was definitely the time spent immersed in the community the students expressed gratitude for the experience, with a special thank you to ‘Sir Garry’, as everyone in Maasin refers to Mr Hart, for his commitment to the people of Maasin and to the immersion programme.

SPORT REPORT “OUR CAPTAINS PERFORMED A FANTASTIC JOB WITH THE TEAMS AT TRAINING SESSIONS AND DURING RACE DAY, KEEPING THE EXCITEMENT TO THE BEST LEVEL FOR MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE.” MR STEPHEN HUNTER SPORT COORDINATOR

T

his year CBC Fremantle has had more sporting teams entered in competition than ever before, providing students of all ages and abilities with an opportunity to display their talents in their chosen sport. As the aim of the Sport department is to offer students at every level an opportunity to display their best effort, represent the College, strive for excellence and most importantly, to enjoy themselves surrounded by friends, we feel the year has been very successful and holds a lot of promise for the future.

The ACC Swimming, Athletics and Cross Country carnivals are the three biggest competitive events on our sporting calendar. The boys selected to represent the College completed many early morning and afternoon training sessions pushing each other to get the best results. This year was filled with many highs and lows but one thing didn’t waver; the CBC team spirit and sportsmanship was prevalent at each and every carnival. Our Captains performed a fantastic job with the teams at training sessions and during race day, keeping the excitement to the best level for maximum performance. The hard training sessions in the lead up to the competition and on the day produced some outstanding results, often recording personal best times and distances, typifying the attitude and culture of students who pull on a CBC sport uniform.

The ACC Lightning Carnivals were strongly represented again this year, with all Year 7, 8 and 9 boys displaying their talents in the areas of AFL, Rugby, Soccer, Hockey or Ultimate Frisbee. These events are solely a participation-based activity and were a great success.

On a cold and wet day in May, the Year 7 boys were introduced to the Lightning Carnival experience. Their enthusiasm and excitement was fantastic to watch and the weather was not going to dampen their spirits.

The Year 8 and 9 students were a little more blessed with the sunshine and a beautiful day.

Although scores were not recorded, many of the boys feel that they finished the day undefeated.

None of this would have been possible without the help and guidance from all the support staff, including teachers, parents, Old Boys and current students. I thank you for your assistance and look forward to another great year in 2018.

All boys involved in Sport at CBC Fremantle are outstanding in representing the College, but a special mention must go to the following students for their involvement. These boys were recognised at the Awards Evening for their commitment this year: • Athletics Award – Nathaniel-Bond Williams • Cross Country Award – Luke Mertens • Swimming Award – Tom Corrie • Sports Service Award – Samuel Sanginiti • CBC Junior Sportsman of the Year – Joshua Stedman • CBC Senior Sportsman of the Year – Tex Sjerp

AFL FOOTBALL “OUR OUR BOYS COMPETED WELL IN WET CONDITIONS WITH A STRONG BLUSTERY BREEZE AND PRODUCED SOME SCINTILLATING FOOTBALL THROUGHOUT THE DAY.” MR STEPHEN HUNTER SPORT COORDINATOR

C

BC’s reputation as an AFL powerhouse continued to grow in 2017 with strong performances across all year levels. The First XVIII had a terrific season and finished up by winning the Barry Cable division competition in convincing fashion. It was CBC’s sixth Grand Final in seven years and with many narrow losses in those games it was sensational to seal the win. The Old Boys who experienced those near misses came out in force to support the boys, storming on to the field at the end of the game to join the team in singing the Edmund Rice song.

It was a great way to farewell our Year 12 footballers, Timothy Bockman, Joseph Eardley, Benjamin Elsbury, Matthew Geaney, Brodee Knight, Tom Monaghan, Dillon O’Reilly, Darcy Sunter and Nicholas Watson, who had been unbelievable servants of the Football programme at CBC. Their leadership throughout the season was exceptional and they have left a strong legacy at the College.

At the final siren CBC 8.6.54 defeated Emmanuel College 4.3.27. Goal scorers were Timothy Bockman (3), Dillon O’Reilly, Riley Rees-Turner, Benjamin Parker, Joshua Goodwin and Brodee Knight. Best players were Matthew Geaney, Timothy Bockman, Tom Monaghan, Eddie Pezet, Darcy Sunter, Nicholas Watson, Joshua Goodwin, Sean Henley, Mason Zindani, Adam Correia and Brodee Knight. Man of the match went to Matthew Geaney and League Best and Fairest was awarded to Dillon O’Reilly.

The Year 10 Football team also had a promising year.

They competed in the South West Carnival and proved

too strong for the opposition, going undefeated through the round robin tournament. This victory saw the team go through to the state final. Captained

by Jack Fenton, the team lost several players in the first game due to injuries, and battled hard in wet and blustery conditions to end up finishing the day at equal third with two wins and two loses.

The Year 8 and 9 Football also made the Grand Final of their competition. Led strongly by Jonas Brown, Thomas Rivers and Joshua Stedman, the team put in some great performances and should all be very proud of their efforts.

Year 7 students participated in the Dockers Shield, fielding two teams in the competition. Both teams fought fiercely and produced some outstanding passages of play. A feature of the day was some hard running to provide support to create options for each other and strong marking across all lines.

Both teams won the majority of their games but only one was lucky enough to make it through to the finals. Our boys competed well in wet conditions with a strong blustery breeze and produced some scintillating football throughout the day. However, our efforts for back-to-back shields was thwarted by an impressive competition, who were extremely strong in the air and across the ground and ran out very worthy winners of the Dockers Shield.

I would like to thank Mr John Black, Ms Chloe Lynn, Mr Louis Miller, Mr Christopher Pietroniro, Mr Zachary Preston and Mr Patrick Ryan, and for their efforts in coaching their respective sides.

ACC ATHLETICS In Term 3 our ACC squad made their way to the state athletics stadium excited at the challenge of competing at the top level. The team was in high spirits, looking for all the boys to achieve their best, even with many competitors injured or unwell.

After many ups and downs throughout a beautiful day in the sun, CBC Fremantle’s Athletics squad finished third for the Overall Boys Shield, which was an absolutely fantastic effort by the whole squad.

There were some great personal best results on the day and many of our reserves were called upon to participate, performing very strongly with some even winning their events. The sportsmanship shown by all the athletes was commendable on a tough day.

The race of the carnival was the U16 400m event with a new ACC record set by Conor Larranaga-Boyle. Conor represented the College in many events throughout the day with fantastic results. During his 200m race, Conor was in front by 10m down the straight when he tripped and fell. After some medical attention, Conor won his first division 100m, and then set the new 400m ACC record.

Another record broken on the day was the U14 high jump, with a new CBC record of 1.63m. Cameron Fox impressed in numerous running events and excelled in his high jump event winning the first division. Our Year 7 relay team, which was made up of Tristan Jensen, Alejandro Larranaga-Boyle, Thomas Osborn and Oliver Renton, completed perfect baton hand overs to set a new CBC record in the 4 x 100m relay with a time of 52.24 seconds.

It was great to see all the boys representing their College to the best of their ability. Many of the boys are already making plans to improve for 2018. A huge thank you goes

out to all the competitors, parents, coaches and helpers who made this day possible. Thank you also to the staff who spent many mornings and afternoons training the boys. Mr John Black, Mr Brent Butcher, Mr Adrian Correia, Miss Lana De Palma, Mr Daniel Kennedy,Mr Justin Leech, Mr Jason Matthews, Mr Christopher Pietroniro, Mr Zachary Preston, Mrs Silvia Romagnoli and Mr Adryan Winnan; thank you for all your extra work, it is greatly appreciated.

BASKETBALL “THE BOYS WERE REMARKABLE, KEEPING UP THEIR ENTHUSIASM AND PERFORMANCE, WHILE DISPLAYING RESILIENCE AND DETERMINATION IN A TOUGH COMPETITION.�

MR STEPHEN HUNTER SPORT COORDINATOR

YEAR 7 A very eager group of young men represented CBC in the ACC Year 7 Super Series Basketball WA Challenge. The team came out strong in the first two games, defeating the opposition with a lead of more than 20 points. Tough competition met the boys in their third game, with many students in other teams having competed in state basketball.

The boys played a great game, listening carefully and applying the advice of their coach, Anthony Romeri.

They were defeated by 12 points, which resulted in their last game deciding whether they made it to the semi-finals, and it was a nail-biter down to the last second, when the final shot circled the ring three times before falling out. CBC were defeated 22-21 but their teamwork and enthusiasm on the day was impressive, and the players should be proud of their achievements. Well done gentlemen!

YEAR 9/10 CBC was again represented by two teams at the annual Year 10 Interschool Basketball Competition.

Off to a slow start, CBC A struggled to get their bearings against Corpus Christi College. However, under the guidance of coach Matthew Burd, the boys were able to turn the game around by working as a team and came out victorious.

This continued with strong performances from many of the players resulting in CBC A winning all of their qualifying games, including the semi-final against CBC B. In the Grand Final, CBC A team were met with strong competition. Lagging a bit during the first half, the boys managed to decrease the margin during the second half with some resilient basketball but were defeated by six points. CBC B finished their great day in third position, beating Corpus Christi by only a few points.

It was an extremely hot day, with many of the games played outside in direct sunlight. The boys were remarkable, keeping up their enthusiasm and performance, and displaying resilience and determination in a tough competition.

CRICKET “THE BOYS WERE FANTASTIC ALL SEASON AND SHOULD BE CONGRATULATED ON THEIR EFFORTS.�

MR ZACHARY PRESTON HEAD OF HEALTH & PHYSICAL EDUCATION

A

fter a promising season with a disappointing end in 2016, this year the CBC First XI Cricket team started with a hard-fought win against Emmanuel College.

Captained by Tom Monaghan, the team went on to wins against Canning Vale College and Willetton Senior High, putting CBC on top after the round robin phase of the competition. In the knock out phase, victories over Willetton again and Great Southern Grammar in Williams put CBC through to the one-day carnival where the semi-final and final are played.

In the semi-final CBC played fantastically against Mandurah Catholic College, sending the team

through to the final for the second time in three years. Unfortunately, CBC lost to Mazenod College, who played a more consistent game on the day.

The boys were fantastic all season and should be congratulated on their efforts. Well done to the debutants Lewis Bradbury, James Coletta, Jess Davie, Jack Fenton, Tom Gleeson, Harry Golding, Joshua Goodwin, Bailey Holman and Regan Wilson.

Finally, a big thank you to Mr Daniel Kennedy for coaching the team this year. Hopefully, the team can go one better in 2018.

CROSS COUNTRY “LED STRONGLY BY THE SENIOR BOYS AND INSPIRED BY THE ENTHUSIASM FROM THE LARGE BRIGADE OF LOWER SCHOOL STUDENTS, THE TEAM WAS EAGER TO IMPRESS.” MR JUSTIN LEECH CROSS COUNTRY COACH

I

n 2017, the Cross Country team was eager to build on last year’s performance, placing second in the 2016 ACC competition.

The season commenced with great enthusiasm and some stand out individual performances. Led strongly by the senior boys and inspired by the enthusiasm from the large brigade of lower school students, the team was eager to impress.

Our first event was the State All Schools competition at McGillivray oval. The weather was bleak, cold and miserable, but CBC’s performance was outstanding and the boys produced some tremendous achievements throughout the day. We had strong runners across all age groups, particularly in the 14 year old category, which we won convincingly. At the completion of the final race, the team eagerly anticipated the results of the prestigious boys’ overall champion school. While CBC narrowly missed out by coming second to Sacred Heart College, the boys were proud of their performance.

The All Schools event was great preparation for our group and proved to be an excellent motivation for the ACC Cross Country. The team arrived early at Alderbury

Reserve and it was clear the boys were determined to accomplish their best. The runners battled tirelessly all day and it was outstanding to see the level of support and encouragement offered to each team member during every race. The competition to win the Boys’ Shield was very tight and it came down to the open boys’ race where Luke Mertens’ performance of CBC’s quickest time of the day encapsulated the attitude and commitment of the entire team. Tensions were high prior to finding out the results and, while it was disappointing to just miss out again on winning the shield, it was a fantastic overall team effort and an excellent result to finish third.

It was magnificent to witness the leadership and camaraderie displayed throughout the season.

A huge thank you to Miss Tognolini and Mr Pietroniro for their industrious efforts throughout the season.

I would also like to recognise the stoic efforts of the student leadership team, especially our Captain Luke Mertens, for his professionalism, commitment and passion which epitomised his character. Whilst we didn’t walk away overall winners this year, I was extremely impressed with the team’s attitude and courage and I look forward to working with the team again in 2018.

HOCKEY “... THE TEAM HAD A GREAT DAY WHERE WE BLOODED SOME YOUNGER PLAYERS INTO THE SENIOR SQUAD IN PREPARATION FOR FILLING THE LARGE HOLES LEFT BY SOME OF OUR TALENTED YEAR 12 STUDENTS WHO GRADUATE THIS YEAR.” MS SHAYNI NELSON HOCKEY COACH

I

t was Groundhog Day for the College senior Hockey team this season when they dominated the ACC Challenge round matches, only to be defeated narrowly again by John XXIII College in the finals.

The CBC and JTC rivalry has grown over the last five years and unfortunately, for the boys from Fremantle, JTC was able to get revenge for their narrow loss in the 2016 semi-final. JTC lifted considerably for their win in the semi-final against us and then were so exhausted that they lost the Grand Final to Geraldton’s Nagle College, who we beat in the round matches.

Despite the disappointing result, the team had a great day where we blooded some younger players into the senior squad in preparation for filling the large holes left by some of our talented Year 12 students who graduate this year.

The team was led by Captain Harry Golding and his ViceCaptains Finlay Martin and Henry Rogerson, all in Year 12.

The carnival was the end to an eight week training block that focussed on developing players’ skills and understanding of the game. The programme consisted of students from Year 7 to 12 and some times attracted almost 40 players. The coaching team was made up of Mrs Shayni Nelson, Mr Craig Jordan and Old Boy Riley Faulds (2016). The boys’ training efforts were rewarded with toast organised by new Hockey Manager, Mrs Kerry Faichney.

The College fielded two junior teams this year in the School Sport WA Ross Meadows Cup in June with 25 Year 7 to 9 students given the opportunity to play on the artificial surfaces at the Perth Hockey Stadium.

For those new to hockey, this was a great thrill and

challenging as the ball runs much quicker on the water-based surface than on our training grass. Both teams played some great hockey in patches during the day but were convincingly beaten by Como.

I would like to thank Mr Craig Jordan, Riley Faulds, Mr Stephen Hunter and Mrs Kerry Faichney for their support and assistance with the programme.

ROWING “WITH A LARGE NUMBER OF SENIOR ROWERS DEPARTING IN 2016, MANY JUNIOR BOYS WERE REQUIRED TO CHALLENGE THEMSELVES AND TAKE THEIR ROWING TO THE NEXT LEVEL.” MR MATTHEW STOCKTON ROWING COACH

I

t was a watershed year for Rowing at CBC. Pre-season training and conditioning started in summer, earlier than previous seasons to place our team in the best competitive position possible come May. With a large number of senior rowers departing in 2016, many junior boys were required to challenge themselves and take their rowing to the next level. Admirably, all CBC rowers held their own and achieved some commendable results.

double scull classes. This led these talented rowers on to taking out the state titles in both categories.

The All Schools Championship was a challenging campaign for our crews, with many close results. Our boys certainly held their own over these five regattas, competing against much larger rowing clubs. I have no doubt that CBC Rowing will be converting these fantastic efforts to podium success in the future.

A rowing season does not just happen without tremendous support from a number of personnel. In the depths of winter, coaches Solomon Holliday (Old Boy 2014) and Allessandro LoPresti (Old Boy 2012) sacrificed their time to coach and train up to six sessions a week with our team. CBC Rowing would not happen without the continued support of Fremantle Rowing Club; Mr Garry Hart for his work with team uniforms, and of course the wonderful parents. The willingness to forgo sleep and brace often unfavourable conditions to train and compete is a testament to the parents’ dedication to their young men, and the boys’ commitment to personal excellence.

Kaden Cordisco (Year 9) and Digby Marshall (Year 10) remained undefeated all year in both single scull and

RUGBY “ALTHOUGH RESULTS WERE NOT ALWAYS FAVOURABLE TOWARDS CBC, THE ATTITUDE, EFFORT, UNDERSTANDING OF THE GAME AND MATESHIP WAS OUTSTANDING.�

MR JAMES SILVER AND MR ADRYAN WINNAN RUGBY COACHES

I

n the 2017 Rugby season, CBC Fremantle competed across three combined age groups, Year 7/8, 9/10 and First XV. The Year 7 and 8 combined side had impressive participation numbers, with moer than 30 players representing the College throughout Term 2 and 3. The team achieved some impressive performances, with a victory against John XXlll College being the stand out.

The Year 9/10 side was under-represented by Year 10 boys, with the majority of the side composed of talented and tenacious Year 9 students. Although results were not always favourable towards CBC, the attitude, effort, understanding of the game and mateship was outstanding. The hard-fought game against Thornlie SHS was the final game of the season, and one in which the boys provided their best performance, earning high praise from their experienced coaches.

CBC 2017

161

The First XV side competed in both the seven and 15 side formats with great distinction. The team predominantly consisted of Year 11 students, which naturally meant that the opposition were generally of a larger stature.

However, the team did not let this adversity affect them and they played with a positive spirit, with each individual contributing something excellent in every game. The season concluded with a special performance against John XXlll. In this final game, the side came from behind to record a fantastic victory, with three tries consisting of 10 or more phases of play.

The season finished with the selection of Sean Phipps into the State Under 17 squad; a fantastic and well-deserved achievement.

SOCCER “BOYS FROM BOTH TEAMS REPRESENTED THE COLLEGE WITH CLASS AND EXCELLENCE, DISPLAYING HIGH SKILL LEVELS AND OUTSTANDING TEAMWORK.” MR NEIL ALWEYN, MRS CAROL DENNY, MR JOHN HORTENSE and MR JEREMY PERIS SOCCER COACHES

JUNIOR SOCCER – A The Junior Soccer A team kicked off their campaign with an away victory over Corpus Christi College. The boys played well, but we had some work to do in terms of our ball passing and maintaining our structure. The boys continued to develop throughout the league stages and became more comfortable with each other’s style of play. Interestingly, the CBC B team were also in our group so there was great anticipation among the boys for the “derby” match up. On the day we mixed up the teams for a very competitive game with the victors winning only by a small margin.

Our next game was against Lynwood at home. The opposition was a very well-drilled side and it was obvious this game would be a real arm wrestle. Both teams fought hard and our boys displayed some outstanding individual skills. The teams were very evenly matched and when the final whistle blew the scores were even. I am not a big fan of deciding games on penalties, but we certainly had some very capable kickers on the team and I felt confident we could pull it off. Unfortunately, things did not go our way and at the end of the shootout Lynwood were the victors. That ended our campaign, but the boys can be proud of their efforts and achievements this year.

Our boys finished the group stage unbeaten and in top spot on the table. The knockout round loomed large and in the first round we were drawn against Eastern Hills at home. Nobody had ever heard of the school, but as soon as the whistle blew to start the game it was apparent that Eastern Hills were not there just to make up the numbers. They took an early lead in the game and battled hard. There was a number of lead changes, but eventually our boys had the upper hand and slotted in the winning goal to finish 4-3.

YEAR 7/8 B TEAM The 2017 Year 7/8 Soccer B Team comprised of bright, young athletes who dedicated their time to training sessions on Friday mornings before school, and after school games to compete in the tournament. The students played some excellent teams, and learned new skills for next year when they progress to the Year 9/10 teams. A special thank to student coaches Daniel Leavy (Year 10) and Samuel Sanginiti (Year 11), whose patience, kindness and willingness to help was very much appreciated. In addition, senior assistants Anthony Cammarano and Jacob Cicirello (both Year 12) provided guidance and support for the boys, coaches and myself. An excellent team effort!

INTERMEDIATE SOCCER Both A and B Intermediate Soccer sides competed hard in every game this season. The B side narrowly missed out on progressing to the knockout stages, with the younger students showing potential and developing throughout the year. The A side, led by a skilful group of Year 10 boys, only lost one game in the round robin stages and made it through to the second knockout round before losing in a thrilling, high-scoring encounter with Safety Bay.

Boys from both teams represented the College with class and excellence, displaying high skill levels and outstanding teamwork. Looking forward, the Year 9 side will aim to progress even further in next year’s competition, with support from the up and coming Year 8 boys. The talented group of Year 10 students

will move on and provide a strong contribution to Senior Soccer over the next two years.

SENIOR SOCCER Harry Bird and Alec Da Silva (Old Boys 2016) led a successful Senior Soccer team in 2017. The season began with a convincing win 5-1, over Lumen Christi College. Following a draw with Seton, the boys continued to prove too strong against Corpus Christi and Emmanuel, securing wins in both games with a three-goal lead. In the final game against St Norbert, a 7-2 win secured the team a position in the first round of knockout finals. Unfortunately, Scotch College proved stronger on the day and came away winners.

Captains Adrian Ciampini and Jason De Gennaro (both Year 12) showed excellent leadership throughout the season both on and off the field. The team’s commitment was also very impressive with all boys setting a positive example and contributing enthusiastically to each game. We farewell the Year 12 boys and thank them for their unfaltering commitment to soccer at CBC, particularly over the last two years.

SURFING “ALL TEAMS THAT REPRESENTED CBC AT THE STATE TITLES DID AN OUTSTANDING JOB AND SHOULD BE PROUD OF THEIR EFFORTS.” MR JASON MATTHEWS SURFING COACH

F

ollowing the recent success of the College surfing programme, competition for spots on the team was fierce and provided a strong expectation of success.

With terrible weather forecast, the event moved to Cottesloe Beach and the boys took advantage of surfing their home break, producing some outstanding results.

Our Junior body boarders had an outstanding day with both teams cruising through their heats, and coming head to head in the final for a spot at the state titles. It was a tight competition with duo Patrick Dart (Year 8) and Zachary Evans (Year 9) just overpowering the solid partnership of Zachary Boglio and Nicholas Dart (both Year 9).

Our Junior surfers included rising stars Finn Hussey and Noah Masters (both Year 9) after a break out season last year, and Moss Ridge and Roan O’Heir (both Year 8), representing CBC for the first time. Moss and Roan surfed extremely well in their heats, but the show stealers were Noah and Finn, who progressed through to the final, earning themselves a spot at the state titles.

In Senior body boarding Jonathan Kay (Year 10) paired with long-serving team member Robert Holmes (Year 12), who pulled on the fins for the last time for CBC Fremantle. Brodie Clark and Millen Sjerp (both Year 12) represented the College for the first time in their last year at the College. Both teams performed well in miserable conditions with Robert and Jonathan finishing third in their heat and Brodie and Millen surprising onlookers, progressing through to the semifinals, narrowly missing a spot on the big stage.

Above right: Alex McGuffin, Tom Corrie (Year 12), Nicholas Dart and Zacharie Boglio (Year 9).

Senior surfing is the highlight of the day, with the best battling it out against each other. It was an emotional day, and the end of an era as we farewelled Year 12 boys Tom Corrie, Joseph Eardley, Alex McGuffin and Samuel Preston. These young men, along with body boarding legend Robert Holmes, have put in considerable time and effort to the surfing programme and always represented the College with distinction. Joseph and Samuel were solid in their heat with a third place.

However, as has come to be expected, Tom and Alex stole the show, flying through the heats and taking out the final and also booking a place in the state titles. All teams that represented CBC at the state titles did an outstanding job and should be proud of their efforts Every year, the Ben Foley Award is presented in memory of Mr Foley, a much-loved teacher, surf coach and mentor to many. This trophy is not awarded based on surfing ability, rather recognises a student for their traits and attributes displayed out of the water, drawing parallels to those of Mr Foley. The award has been nicknamed the ‘good bloke award’ and in his final year, Tom Corrie was the deserving winner. Tom had a close connection with Mr Foley and was honoured to receive the award.

Led by team captains Tom Corrie and Samuel Preston, CBC had another strong year taking out the champion school for our zone. Alex McGuffin was our Best and Fairest, while Finn Hussey claimed the runner-up title, showing that surfing at CBC is in good shape as we farewell our Year 12 boys. A huge thank you to Mr John Black and dedicated parents who support the programme and we all look forward to another big year in 2018.

SWIMMING “THE SWIMMING CARNIVAL CONTINUES TO BE A POPULAR EVENT ON THE COLLEGE CALENDAR, ALLOWING STUDENTS TO DEMONSTRATE THEIR COMMITMENT TO PERSONAL EXCELLENCE OUTSIDE THE CLASSROOM AND PROMOTES HOUSE SPIRIT.” MR JASON MATTHEWS SWIMMING COACH

S

wimming at CBC this year started with a record number of students at training on Tuesday and Thursday mornings. Some mornings there were up to 90 students who wanted to improve their fitness or swimming ability in the pool. Looking forward, our swim team is in very good shape to challenge to win the A Division ACC Shields.

HOUSE CARNIVAL For the second year in a row, Rice House snatched victory at the House Swimming Carnival on Friday 24 February, with a nail-biting finish to a day full of sportsmanship and fun. The competition was close throughout the day, with each House taking its turn at the top of the table. Even the relays, which usually separate the scores in spectacular fashion, failed to produce a clear winner. In the end, the boys in yellow managed to get over the line by only 12.5 points ahead of their traditional swimming rivals, Samson.

With an emphasis on participation, every boy at the College competed in at least one of 182 events at the Carnival, ranging from freestyle and backstroke, to body board or tube races and water displacement competitions.

Staff did not miss the fun either, with teachers joining their respective Houses for the final event, the super relay. The swimming carnival continues to be a popular event on the College calendar, allowing students to demonstrate their commitment to personal excellence outside the classroom and promotes House spirit.

A huge thank you to all the staff, students and parents who continue to make this event what it is today.

QUAD MEET The Quad meet was brought back to HBF stadium in 2017, with CBC competing against some of the top PSA schools, Hale College, Aquinas College and Guildford Grammar. The meet was again dominated by the strong Hale team with CBC swimmers showing real determination to beat the boys in blue. This meet allows our boys the experience of an elite competition, which is a great preparation for the A Division ACC Carnival.

At the end of the evening CBC finished fourth but with some outstanding efforts from our boys. It was a fantastic opportunity for the junior boys to understand how high the bar has been set and gives us all an opportunity to strive for our best.

A DIVISION ACC SWIMMING CARNIVAL Despite a slow start to the day at the ACC Carnival, which saw CBC drop as low as fourth in the field of eight boys’ schools, the determination and skill of swimmers in the closing events narrowed the gap and secured the victory in the senior boys’ division.

CBC’s team of 64 swimmers also placed second in the junior and overall boys’ categories.

The carnival highlighted the collective strength of CBC’s swim team, with half of the day’s first place finishes coming from relays. A number of boys also showed their strength with brilliant individual efforts, with Adam Correia, Michael Cipriano, Anthony Macri, Tremayne Mould and Isaac Pollard finishing first in their races.

A huge thank you to Mr John Rear and Old Boy Michael Zoiti (2013) who helped prepare the team for their competitions. Some of our achievements would not have been possible without all the hard work and dedication by the coaches.

TENNIS “THE BOYS CAME UP AGAINST SOME REALLY STRONG COMPETITION BUT,TO THEIR CREDIT, THEY PLAYED EXTREMELY WELL AND REPRESENTED THE COLLEGE WITH PRIDE.” MR JOEL MOSS AND MISS LISA TOGNOLINI TENNIS COACHES

JUNIOR TENNIS

SENIOR TENNIS

During the first week of school tennis players in the lower school were invited to register their interest.

The response was huge and resulted in by far the largest group to participate in the trials. After weeks of early morning training sessions, the group was reduced to 15 boys, enough for three teams.

Thanks to a greater depth of talent, for the first time CBC entered four teams in the annual interschool competition: The Slazenger Cup/Mursell Shield, held at Belmont Tennis Club in Term 1.

On 22 March, the boys piled into a hire van and drove to Robertson Park Tennis Club in North Perth for a day of hard tennis. The boys came up against some really strong competition but, to their credit, they played extremely well and represented the College with pride. Well done boys!

Despite some strong performances, a tough draw for all four teams meant CBC didn’t qualify for the final stages.

Congratulations to Riley Rees Turner and Adam Correia who led the day with excellent sportsmanship and a commendable strong level of play.

Jess Davie and Joe Bird also performed consistently well on the day and the entire fourth team of Year 10 students, Brad Dowie, Jake Grbavac, Indy Greget O’Dea, Jasper Miller and Bill Orr coped admirably against bigger and older opponents and showed great promise for the future. Congratulations, gentlemen.

In Term 4 the sixth annual CBC end of year Tennis competition was held over the road at Fremantle Tennis Club. The Year 9/10 event was won by Adam Correia, who defeated Indy Greget O’Dea in the final. The Year 7/8 event was won by Brock Caldwell who won against Jason Dowie.

FOREWORD

WATER POLO “ALL STUDENTS GAVE THEIR BEST WITH THE SPECTATORS BEING VERY IMPRESSED BY THE STANDARD OF GAMES THAT WERE PLAYED.” MRS SARAH QUIN WATERPOLO COACH

C

BC had a fantastic year in Water Polo. The abundance of students signing up and the enthusiasm shown meant that we again fielded three teams in each division of the WA School Sport competition. Our Year 9 and 10 A team narrowly missed out on taking first place honours by one goal to John XXIII College’s top team, but dominated in most of their other games. All students gave their best with the spectators being very impressed by the standard of games that were played.

with students joining the swim team for training and even attending selections at Bicton Water Polo club on a Thursday morning. Their dedication paid off with the A team taking out the honours and the B and C teams playing competitively. Most importantly all the students had a great day at the event.

A big thank you to Tex Sjerp, Lachlan McManus and Sam Ryan (all Year 10) who coached the Year 7 and 8 teams and Old Boy Jake Leavy (2014) who trained the Year 9 and 10 sides.

CBC had so many students sign up for the Year 7 and 8 team that selection criteria had to be introduced

SYMBOLS OF OUR JOURNEY AT THE CLASS OF 2017 GRADUATION CEREMONY, JONATHAN FRAMPTON AND TOM MONAGHAN ADDRESSED THE COMMUNITY, USING SYMBOLS TO REPRESENT THEIR TIME AT CBC. JONATHAN FRAMPTON AND TOM MONAGHAN YEAR 12 STUDENTS

JONATHAN FRAMPTON When Mr Burgio first asked me to give a speech at the Graduation ceremony, I was scared and hesitant to say yes, because why would he want me to give a speech?

In my early years at the College, I was a ratbag and found myself in trouble nearly every day. Explaining myself in Mr Burgio’s office was a regular thing, nodding my head and then finding myself back the following week for almost the same thing, week in week out.

For the first four years of high school, I was never sure why I was here; never sure what I wanted to get out of it. It is for this reason that I have chosen a see-saw as my symbol.

When you look up the meaning of a see-saw it has two definitions. One defines it as, “A long plank balanced in the middle on a fixed support, on each end of which children sit and swing up and down by pushing the ground alternately with their feet.”

The other states: “Change, rapidly and repeatedly from one position, situation, or condition to another and back again.”

The second definition is why I have chosen this symbol, changing rapidly and repeatedly, never being able to find myself at CBC, what I wanted to get out of being at this school and taking it for granted.

In Years 7 to 10, my attitude was that graduating was an entitlement, a kind of chronological progression like it had been since Year 1. This attitude was leading me off course and hurting people around me, my friends, peers, and especially those trying to help me.

I am told by old people like Mr Kenny that one of the games he used to play at school was trying to run up and then down a see-saw. During the early years of high school I was at the bottom end of the see-saw looking up at something that did not seem clear to me, and that led to me questioning why I was at this school and the meaning of it.

Teachers like Mr Correia, Mr Matthews and many more, made me accountable for my actions but also guided me through and gave me help when I needed it. They have taught me countless lessons, and I am sure many of the boys in this room tonight have heard a teacher say, “You are who your mates are.” That has stuck with me for my whole schooling journey and I’m sure it will stick with me for life, because early on I would often hang out with the wrong crowd who would bring me down, inside and outside of school. This saying also has made me a better person over the years and made me mature a little faster,

182

CBC 2017

because my actions can bring my mates down also, so reconsidering what I do and say has changed massively.

The hard love and, for some reason, huge amount of belief these teachers, friends and especially family showed in me started to have an effect on me to the point where I saw my purpose and wanted to be at this school. Thanks to people like them, and my strong group of mates who made my days at CBC easier and extremely enjoyable, I slowly came to understand the plan, and especially my role in it. The CBC gentleman started to make sense as I realised all the talk of accountability and commitment was to ultimately get me to become a better man, a better son, a better brother, a better mate and hopefully one day a better father.

Throughout my time at CBC, the one thing I loved most was the football programme and the mateship around it.

My most enjoyable moments were winning premierships with my closest mates and singing the Eddie Rice theme song after every win. At a certain point in my CBC journey I found myself at the tipping point of the see-saw, with one foot on each side of the fulcrum. This was when I was at my most vulnerable, and the whole thing could go either way. It was at this time something happened that opened my eyes and helped me see a little clearer and rethink my actions and purpose. I went through a stage when my actions and behaviour would potentially result in me not being able to participate in playing football and representing the school in other sports.

CBC 2017

183

In Year 11, the Football tour was coming around again, as it does every two years, and for multiple reasons I was not allowed to go unless things changed. I remember sitting in Mr Burgio’s office when he told me and I cried. We made a deal that if things changed I would be able to go. The support and love I got at this time made all the difference.

The forgiveness that has been shown me time and time again, for which I had not always paid back, started to have an effect.

As I thought about this, I began to question a lot of my actions and attitude toward others. With unbelievable support from my mum, and close teachers, I found myself and my worth at CBC, to mature, become a man, and get as much out of this school as I can, academic and sporting. I made the decision to move to the other side of the see-saw, which now, due the commitment of weight, had moved from a plank balancing in mid-air on a solitary point, to a downward facing plank with the mass of the earth supporting it and an easier path to the end.

Over these six years, I went from a skinny blonde kid who could not find himself out of trouble, at the bottom of a see-saw that was not moving, to the same skinny blonde kid who I think has matured a little bit and on the other end of the see-saw with a clear view of where I have come from and what path I need to keep following.

CBC has been an unbelievable support for me over the years and I cannot thank everyone enough for providing me with the opportunity to attend this great school.

TOM MONAGHAN A freeway is a long stretch of road that takes us where we need to go. That’s what symbolises my journey at CBC; a long, long stretch of road that has taken me to where I am today. Like driving on a freeway, our journey through school can sometimes be exciting, sometimes exhausting and sometimes seemingly never-ending. However, it is the belief that you are travelling in the right direction that keeps you going.

How do you know that you are travelling in the right direction? The signs on the side of the road, the signs that reassure you that you are doing the right thing and going the right way. To me these signs are our teachers, as they are the ones that guide you through school, and assist you in reaching your goal -- graduation. Throughout my time at the College, I have had the opportunity to be taught by some amazing teachers, teachers who go beyond what is required of them to contribute to my success and growth as both a student and a person. It is the dedication and selflessness of these people that has guided me, and my peers through the last six years.

Another parallel that can be drawn between a freeway and our time here at the College is the fact that although

our route is express and direct, we don’t all start at the same point along the journey. For some, tonight’s ceremony will mark the end of 12 years of school with the same group of mates who started back with you all those years ago. For others, the journey has been shorter than that, but just as important. Like a freeway, our journey has a common destination, no matter whether you entered close to the end or at the very beginning, we all reach the same destination and at the same time. Being the only boy from my primary school to attend CBC, this makes me value the concept of a common goal, and how a fresh start does not mean you lose sight of the desired destination.

Although we all have a common goal, there have been decisions we have made that have shaped our route; to me these decisions are represented by the range of exits on a freeway. These exits may change the route we take, but we will inevitably end up reaching our own chosen destination. These different routes are essential in our success, because if we were to follow the same path we would not be able to develop as individuals.

This is a crucial part of the CBC experience, that is the opportunity to pursue our own interests, whether in the arts, sport, academics, service, religion or another area of College life. When you pair this opportunity with the strong emphasis of personal excellence, it ensures that

184

CBC 2017

each student at the College has the chance to make their time here at CBC unique and special.

Accidents can happen on the freeway, just as mistakes can be made at school, the reality is with everyone going at high speeds one small mistake inevitably leads to serious consequences. However, what I have learned from my time at CBC is that, although you will make mistakes, there is always someone here to guide you and lead back on the right path. I know there have been times along my journey, especially in my younger years, where I made mistakes and had to deal with the consequences, but it was the lessons I learnt from these mistakes that have made me the person I am today. CBC Fremantle is a place where you are forgiven and learn to forgive, which is as important an attribute as any in seeking a contented life.

When driving, the longer you spend on the roads the less mistakes you will make. The same goes for our time here at CBC, as our journey has progressed, we have become more responsible and mistakes have been less common. We will always make mistakes, and there will always be consequences, but if we have learnt from these experiences and have improved ourselves from them, I believe we have become the men that the College had envisioned we would become. Not tomorrow’s gentlemen any more, but the fully-fledged CBC gentleman our families, our teachers, our community, but most importantly ourselves, can be proud of.

COLLEGE BALL “THE EVENT IS SIGNIFICANT IN THE FORMATION OF THE YOUNG MEN WHO WILL GRADUATE AT THE END OF THE YEAR AND A CELEBRATION OF THE COMMITMENT OF THE STUDENTS’ TO BECOMING A CBC GENTLEMAN.”

T

he quality of CBC Fremantle’s gentlemen was on show with a glamorous celebration for the Year 12 students before they focus on their final countdown to graduation.

After polishing their moves at formal dancing lessons since Year 10, the Class of 2017 were ready to hit the floor. The preparation not only focusses on learning to dance, the classes also strengthen social etiquette and responsible behaviours for the young men, and the College Ball is a highlight on the Year 12 calendar.

The event is significant in the formation of the young men who will graduate at the end of the year and a celebration of the commitment of the students’ to becoming a CBC gentleman.

On arrival at the iconic Fremantle landmark, Esplanade

by Rydges Hotel, the young men of CBC introduced their partner to Principal, Shaun Kenny, as well as College Captain, Nicholas Watson, and his partner, Hannah Hussey, before settling in for a buffet dinner and some delicious desserts.

This year’s favoured hue with the young ladies was red, with all shades of ruby on the dance floor, and navy suits were a popular choice with the boys.Harry Golding, Nicholas Watson and Henry Scurry began the formal component of the evening, presenting an acknowledgement of country, the College Captain’s address, and leading the event in prayer.

The dance floor quickly became the place to be after dinner was served, presenting the senior students with the excuse to let their hair down to some of this year’s hottest tracks, as well as some old favourites.

It wasn’t long before it was time for the formal ballroom dancing sets, which gave the couples a chance to put their skills on show with only a little help from teachers, Ms Emily Bowran and Mrs Keely Laing.

Celebrations continued until just before midnight, when a stream of limos whisked the young adults into the night, ending what had been an evening to remember.
