Principal A great community commitment has been seen this year with active fundraising for CLC house to be built on the ground s of Brother Beausang school in Kenya, for the safety of young women.
Our College theme this year has been "Justice", which is one of the four Mary Aikenhead Ministries val ues. Justice is the call to right and loving relationships with God, self, others and all of creation. Mary Aikenhead encouraged others to "always try to act with justice and truth". Our CLC community has responded to this call, as seen in its ongoing commitment to social justice, reconciliation, community service and student initiatives including the Feminist Collective.
2018, has seen a change in the timetable structure, new subjects being offered, increased opportunities for acceleration and the option of pants as part of the Winter uniform. Our refurbished College hall has created a fresh space for the performing arts and the new design and repositioning of the Honour Boards have highlighted the contributions of many community members both past and present.
It was with sadness that we mourned the passing of Sr Patricia Nu nan rsc on April 25. Sr Patricia was a former Principal of CLC Eltham (1979 -1986) and Board Director. Her energy, faith, passion, perspective and grounded sense of humour touched and inspired
those she loved, taught, led and ministered to in her sixty plus years as a professed Sister of Charity.

appreciative of your drive, energy
College Co-Captains I feel so grateful to have been able to walk the CLC halls with all of the amazing year 12 girls. We shared so many memories and experiences together and watched each other grow into the women we have become. Unlike that first day of Year 7. many of us now drive ourselves to school much, to the fear of the other road users. We are now young women who are preparing for our final exams and life beyond CLC. This year's graduating class, have truly changed my life. Getting to know them through this year, has been a privilege. Whether we only exchanged a smile in the hallways, were in one class together or are best friends I'm going to miss them all. I remember 2013 honestly, like it was yesterday. In some weird way the past 6 years have flown by, but at the same time, when I think of everything we have done and achieved up until this point, I realise
CLC I Caritas 12018
just how long it has really been . Six years we have been together, seeing each other's faces almost every day. Now that all changes. We have grown up, we are moving on and starting anew.
I can't wait to be at our 20 year reunion, looking back on this moment, realising how little we knew about the world and reflecting on the crazy journeys our lives take us on. I'm sure many of us
will travel far and wide, become business owners and leaders, career women, wives, community leaders and mothers. Perhaps at some time in the future, some us will have daughters that are nearing high school age and we can stand at those gates and tell them that those pants the girls are wearing happened on our watch . We can tell them of the adventures that await them and the incredible friends they will make. But most of all we will tell them to savour every moment because before they know it, it will be over and they will be saying goodbye to an extraordinary chapter of their lives. The opportunity to be your school captain has been one that I will treasure forever. It has been my pleasure and privilege to serve at CLC

Student learning and wellbeing work hand in hand. When students feel known and valued, when their vo ices are heard and respected , then learning is optimised. Whilst the primary business of school is learning, girls learn best in an environment that is safe, welcoming and caring. All members of the College community work to create such an environment and the pastoral care program underpins all that we do. Students participated in a variety of activities to promote their wellbeing and nurture their learning. Years 7. 8 and 9 each enjoyed a 3-day camp, Year 10s Community Service, the Year lls focussed on working towards a successful VCE and Year
CLC I Caritas I 2018
Many of these presentations were provided by the College's three new counsellors: Ms Rebecca Woolley, Dr Kylie Wainwright and Ms Annette Magro. Students quickly established effective working relationships with all three counsellors and the College community has been truly blessed by their knowledge and dedication, care and inte rest in all students. The Student Leadership Team ably led by College CoCaptains, Brigette Mcveigh and Lily McCarthy, were very active throughout the year. They presented at College Assemblies for International Women's Day, Anzac Day, Founder's Day and the announcement of the 2019 College Captains. The SLT raised funds and goods for Plan International Australia (girls' educational
programs), the local women's program, Share the Dignity, and assisted with the CLC House in Kenya event. A particular success was the House Spirit afternoon activity on Founder's Day. The whole SLT team contributed to make the afternoon lots of fun for all and a resounding success. Both Lily and Brigette, the 'Ringleaders' of the circus themed afternoon extravaganza, deserve much praise and our hearty congratulations for their outstanding and tireless work throughout the year. They were truly dedicated and inspiring servant leaders. In response to staff, student and parent feedback received in 2017. the 2018 school year saw a focus on the correct wearing of the College Uniform. Students were reminded that CLC has a uniform for a number of reasons includ ing fostering a sense of belonging, identity and pride; its connection to the history and tradition of the College; its promotion of equality among students; for health and safety reasons and to enable active participation. It has been
most encouraging to witness the students' positive response to this initiative. Th is year also saw the addition of College winter pants, which proved to be very popular with students. I would like to thank the Year Level Team Leaders, the Homeroom Teachers, the Student Wellbeing Committee, the Administration Team, the Learning Enhancement Team and the College Counsellors for their dedicated support of all students throughout the year. They are all genuinely committed to the safety, care and learning of each student. Most importantly, I thank our parents, the primary educators of their daughters, for their work in partnership with the College. It is indeed a privilege to be entrusted with the wellbeing and education of your daughters and I trust that we will continue to work in partnership with you to educate courageous, resilient and compassionate you ng women wholly committed to the transformation of society.

Year 7 Peer Support and Transition
Change, some of us thrive on it and others take time to adapt to new situations. Whether it is moving home, beginning at a new school or trying something for the first time, it can often be quite daunting. Possibly one of the most significant early changes young people have to navigate is moving from primary to secondary school. This experience can bring an array of

feelings. Some girls are eager and excited about taking this next step in life's journey but sometimes the feel ings of excitement are often accompanied by some nerves and fears, particu larly on the days leading up to the start of the new school year.

new students with each other and made their first day a reunion with new friends. The next step is Orientation Day where the girls found out which homeroom they were in and they had a chance to get to know others in a number of 'getting to know you' activities, attended two typical secondary school classes, were taken on a school tour and enjoyed a BBQ lunch with their Year 10 Peer Support leaders.
Most students were visited in their primary schools and we enjoyed meeting Grade 6 teachers who completed a transition form , which helped us to get to know the girls better.
For Year ?sand 12s only, the first day was a wonderful day where they learnt more about each other and met and had fun with some of the Year 12s.
For those who were the only one com ing from their primary school we ran a 'Solo Flyers' gathering. This session really helped to link
A highlight for many Year 7 girls was the Peer Support program run in Semester One by our Year 10 leaders. This program helped to
support the girls with developing their self-confidence, bu ilding positive relationsh ips with the ir peers and supported their overall enjoyment of school. As the saying goes 'it takes a village to ra ise a ch ild'. We believe it takes numerous activities and experiences for students to fee l safe and comfortable in their new environment. They are the n better able to learn and to achieve positive learning outcomes. I would like to thank all the parents, teachers and the students who have made this year's transition of our Year ?s so positive and worthwhile.

Year 7 Reflections it was on that day that together we built, our giant paper flower wall mural to symbolise our year level theme - courage and community.
The Year 7 students of 2018 embraced the adventure that is starting secondary school with open arms. It seems like just yesterday that the Year 7 corridor was buzzing with five brand new homerooms filled with students learning how to open their lockers and read their timetables for the very first time. We enjoyed sharing our first school event soon after the House Swimming Carnival and

These two words are what have bonded the Year 7 students as a cohort. They have shown courage in many different ways, making new friends, trying new subjects for the first time and persevering when things were not always easy. There have also been tremendous opportunities to build commun ity - our wonderful three day beach Camp at Mt Eliza, Founders Day complete with a giant volleyball competition, Reflection Day at Eltham Community Centre and our many fu n-filled , special moments within our Homerooms each morning. The Year 7 students have really
embraced the notion of 'giving things' a go, with many students being involved in multiple cocurricular and sporting teams. They have been proud to represent the College at many interschool events and have shown a true sense of CLC spirit. As a Year Level, a great deal of generosity has also been shown to those who are less fortunate. The Year 7 students are the next generation to be welcomed into the CLC Br Beausang fam ily and I am so very proud that they have fundraised over $1,000 towards the College goal of raising $18,000 for CLC House. They also demonstrated generosity towards supporting Project Compassion, Share the Dignity and the St Vinnies Food Drive campaigns run at the College.
My heartfelt thanks to the Homeroom teachers, Mrs Pendavi ngh , Ms Durham, Signora Salvitti, Mrs Sanderson, Mr. Salmic and Frau Wilkinson who have supported and gu ided the stu dents through their first year of secondary school. Thank you also to Transition Coordinator Mrs Webster for al l of her work in the transition process and for facilitating the Year 7 and 10 Peer Support program. I am very proud of the kind and generous Year 7 students of 2018. I am confident that they will cont inue to be rich in spirit and kind in hea rt as they continue their journey here at CLC.

Year 7 First Day
My First Day
"Ok, here it goes", I thought to myself as I slammed the car door shut. I looked up at what seemed to me a gigantic school. I was nervous , bu t so excited to go in. My Mum held my hand as we lugged my school books behind us, in two full bags. " How much work was I going to be doing if we had all of these supplies?" I gripped my Mum's hand as we went up the never ending stairs. The school was busy with other Year Sevens and their parents and Year Twelves, some of them driving themselves to school! I couldn't imagine what it would be like when all the students came! But I didn't have too much time to look around. We got a photo, I said

know you' activities, and the day began.
and couldn't wait to start classes there.
I walked in, and found my friends from primary school and those I had made at the Orientation Day right away. We anxiously looked around, wondering which other people we would befriend. Soon, we met our Year Seven Team Leader, Ms Vassallo, or Ms V. She soon calmed all of our nerves, telling us the hilarious story of her first day. She then sent us to our Homerooms. I was so lucky to be put with two of my friends from primary school! My teacher was Signora Salvitti, who told us that she had a daughter that was in Year Seven as well , so she knew how nervous we were. We were given a bag full of 'getting to
After our nerves were calmed and we played a few icebreaker games, it was time for lunch with our Year Twelve Buddies. We had received touching letters at our orientation written by them, and I was super excited about meeting mine. She was super nice! We ate lunch together, along with her friends and mine. I talked about how excited I was for the year, and she told me how much I had to look forward to.
Soon, the day was over, and I left excited for tomorrow, when classes would start. The next day was also my 13th birthday, meaning there wou ld be two huge milestones for me. I couldn't wait.
After lunch, we did a scavenger hunt around the school, and it showed me just how big it was compared to my primary school! I was intrigued by the Drama room,
This year has been filled with lots of different experiences, half of which I would have never expected on my first day! It's been great finding new friends and keeping old friendships as well, and using all of the opportunities that have come my way. I can't wait for next year. Lily Moran 7C

Year 7 Student Writing Shadow I dive into the ocean; the view here is breathtaking. I take a glimpse of everything . Coral, fish and shells. It's beautiful here. Coming up for a breath, I see a shadow. Suddenly pain shoots through my leg. It has been ripped from its socket. Blood fil ls the clear water.
My world was being tossed around. Around it went. upside down, over and under. Everywl1ere I lookec1 people were screaming . Tl1en there was s1le11ce. Not for long t11ouql1. Everything I saw was rapid ly rusl1ec1 behind 1110. My surroundings became a blur. notl1111g was clear "Creak'" The roller coaster had stopped.
Sanaaya Ranasinghe 7C
I ran. As far away as I coulcJ. Tl1e freezing w1ncJ blowing against my face. My cl1est tigl1tened. I couldn't rur1 anymore. I stumbled into a dark alleyway, l11d111g from them. They were looking for me. I turned around as the souncJ of sirens blasted my ears. They were coming .
Models Who are they and w hat do they really mean to us? Thin, skin ny, tanned and meaningless. The world would be a better place without them. Stereotypes , I'm sick of them. People should be 1udged by what's inside, not ou tside. Everybody wants to be like them, but they just can't.

I hate birthdays. When your Mum buys you a birthday cake larger than your entire body, you know she's mad. Crazy mad. It took me an entire hour to blow out all the cand les. I turned 12, so of course my Mum gave me 144 cand lesi My dad is way worse.
She emerged from her room lucky not to break the door. Her eyes lit up as she saw the tree. There was one gift. She opened it with delight. Disappointment fell upon her face as she took out the apple. Suddenly a puppy ran from the door. Happiness once again.

I couldn't stop staring. Neither could he. I fe lt a wave of affection fall over me, and instantly we were the only ones in the room. Should I say something? I thought to myself. Right as I was about to speak, he whispered to me, "Stop staring, weirdo."
I stare up at the dying flower on the windowsrll. The last petal droops. It has died, my last reminder of him. His presence has left me forever My heart aches, big salty tears start pouring down my face. I finish putting on my cJress. It's time for the funeral.

Lying with a Stranger BANGI Two days ago was I making breakfast w hen a bowl dropped fro m behind me. Yesterd ay I woke up w ith a scratch on my face ; it was bleed ing. Last night I heard the squeaky garage open. Th is morn ing I heard loud footsteps approacl1ing. That was the last thi ng I heard.
Sweltering heat smashed across my back. Thirst and starvation dug their way into my aching stomach. I wouldn't be able to make it in time. The edge was too far away. And then, against all odds, I saw it. I swung my legs over the rusted barricade, completing my destiny. Eloise Thompson 70

A Peaceful Place There was a beautiful sense of peace here. Paddocks with dried grass stretched for miles with black cows speckled about.

Year 8 Reflection did not deter any of the students, who were undaunted in thei r enthusiasm to participa te and try new things. For one night, students camped out, pitching the ir own tents and lig hting camp fi res to coo k thei r dinner; an experience entirely new to many of the girls. In fact, the positive attitude of the students and their resilience in spite of the cold, was remarked upon by many of the camp staff.
At year 8 it is our aim to help students navigate the shift from childhood to young adu lthood. This year's year 8 students have certa inly risen to the challenge and it has been su ch a pleasure to work alongside this group of students, to watch them develop into more resilient, ever kinder and more reflective young women. The homeroom teache rs and I saw the first sign of this growth when even though Year 8 camp began with an inauspicious ten deg ree drop in tempe rature, the unseasonable cold

A particularly memorable momen t for many of the supervising staff came on the Tuesday evening when the yea r level participated in a sing -along to 'The Greatest Showman'. Audience participation in the evening perform ance was as passionate, spontaneous and eff usively enthusiastic as any lot of riotous groundl ings during an original stag ing at the Globe Theatre. The students cheered and clapped, hissed and booed and sang every single word to every sing le song. It was delightful to see the students so fr iendly wi th each other, so happy, so effortlessly conside rate and it was remarkab le to see, and to be a part of, the warm spirit that they
brought to camp and which they have so generously shared throughout the ir Year 8 year. Wi th this same spi rit of generosity and inclusivity, the girls have participated in incursions, excursions, homeroom challenge s and com petitions, pastoral care, and City Experience. However, none of these opportunities wou ld have been possible without the wonderful and spi rited support of the Yea r 8 homeroom teacher team.

Music onto stage and Grace Notes has continued performing beautiful vocal music not only for the College, but the community at various events including ANZAC Day and the Practically Green Festival at Edendale Farm.
Creativity is an essential life skill and Music is one of the key learning areas where this is developed. Students got involved in co-curr icu lar music w ith the concert and contemporary bands and various ensemb les performing at assemblies and major school events as we ll as the two semester music evenings. The Senior Concert Band learnt 12 concert pieces to perform at their own concert, as did the numerous saxophone and flute ensembles . The Junior Band wowed audiences by marching

Year 7 Music, the students learnt about the basic musica l instruments and had the opportunity to get inventive and create their own. T hey composed and performed music, creating graphic scores (music represented by pictures) and sou nd scapes. Technology is important and the Year 7 students not only created documentaries on various musical genres but also began their journey with GarageBand. Year 8 Mus ic students worked on performing popular songs as well as writing their own. They created music videos and websites to promote their band. Improving their skill on an instrument has been the focus of the second semester
and students learnt to play a couple of pieces as a band. This has also led them to improving interpersonal skills and decisionmaking as a band.

Lip sync battles were a fun and engaging way for the Year 9 Music students to develop their stagecraft and performance ski lls. Getting up in front of any audience is intimi dating so Year 9 students are encouraged to relax and actively engage with their audience.
Certificate Ill VCE VET Music Industry runs over two years and Year 11 students have focuse d on working in the schoo l's recording studio to write and record their own songs with the aim of being able to promote themselves as artists. They have learnt about copy ri ght and cont inued to improve the ir performance skills.
Year 10 Music students worked hard to expand and deve lop their skills in a challenging and knowledge laden year as they began their journey with the VC E VET Music Certificate. The Certificate II course covers performance, health and safety, use of recording software and other technology and notation reading.

They decided to focus on 'What do I want out of life?' and proceeded to create an outstanding piece of theatre.

'The Suitcase Series' preparation began in Semester Two with the Drama Troupe shifting into top gear to create an ensemble performance based on the play
Atom ic, by Ame lia Chandos Evans. The troupe performed the ir wor k at the Ma lthouse Theatre in Octo ber. This was a fabu lou s opport unity to share their work with other schools and to experience performing in one of Melbou rne's most renowned theat res. Drama Troupe excelled in their contributions toward the creat ion of a fascinating performance in a short piece of time. Our Colleg e community had the opportunity to see the performance in our November showcase alongside Drama Club's extracts from Alice Dreaming, Dance Troupe and Guest senior drama students.

Performing Arts
As Performing Arts Captai n my main goal was to get as many girls as poss ible involved in Performing Arts throughout the whole school. Whether be it watching from the audience or right in the spotlight, I wanted people to enjoy the talent th at CLC is so fortunate to have.
This year involved a lot of diligence and organ isation due to the number of people who were wi lling to be involved. One of the highlights, however, would have to be the College Production of Godspell. Actors, musicians and dancers from Years 7 to 12 came together to put on a show. With such a diverse cast not on ly did girls get the opportunities to meet new people from other year levels, but they also cou ld share their talents and try new things. I know many of those girls never thought they would ever be dancing, but with some encouragement everyone was grooving around. Another amaz ing event that occurred in Performing Arts at
CLC was Founder's Day. Newer andyoungerbandshadthe opportunity to play alongs ide more developed bands to perform, with dancers, to an amazing finale of This is the Greatest Show. Founder's Day involved a lot of performances from people throug hout the school and the atmosphere of the show was fantastic and unforgettab le for many. Whilst the members of the College were able to enjoy many events this year, there was also a lot of behind the scenes work and smaller performances for more selected audiences. From music nights, to drama ensemble and solo shows, to dance troupe at
lunchtimes and outside of school fest ivals and performances, I could not be prouder to have been a part of the amaz ing success the girls have achieved this year. The Performing Arts, truly allow students to learn , grow, try something new and meet someone new. Also, more importantly, it is able to put a smi le on eve ryone's face. And this is something truly special and the main reason why we all push so hard to always remember that "The show must go on" . Olivia Tomada Dance and Drama Coordinator

Year 9 Reflection challenged in new and exciting ways. Our 2018 Year 9 cohort is energetic, enthusiastic and spirited in the ways that they approach many facets of school life.
It has been my privilege to lead ou r Year 9 students throug h the challenges and successes of 2018. Year 9 is a year of change in many ways; our students have an increased sense of independence in their learning and selections in electives and they begin to be
42
In the first half of the year, we spent a great deal of time as a year level getting prepared for the first lot of Semester Exams. Exams are often a source of great worry and stress the first time around, but our Year 9 students approached the task diligently and were well equipped with tips and tricks from their subject teachers as well as the Elevate Study Skills Sessions. We were able to celebrate and cha llenge some of ou r relationships and the points of view of our peers
during the REACH Foundation workshops. The sessions enabled the gi rl s to really see each other in a different light and to cons ider what makes a good friend, peer and year level group. I was proud to see the maturity that the students had in these sessions which did beg in to pu sh them beyond their comfort zones. The Year 9s were tested in their skill s of research and creativity in the Inquiry Based Project where they were responsible as a class to create a futuristic city for the yea r 2050. It was wonderful to see such thought, energy and initiative put into this three-week project and all the homerooms should be proud of their ability to work as a team.
Year 9 Camp was a highlight for all the Year 9 students. Our time in Anglesea saw a great deal of effo rt, challenge and personal success as well as a rea l sense of commu nity amongst the Year 9 students. I am proud of the ways that the students engaged in the chal lenges offered to them and it was wonderful to see the smiles on their faces upon our return to the College. I wou ld like to thank the Year 9 stud ents for their energy, charisma and enthusiasm for all their undertakings in 2018 and wish them every success as they move into their senior yea rs of school.

Emboldened from this early victory, the group sought ou t new chal lenges in the fo rm of Refugee Awareness Week. This was a two -
pronged operation: an awareness campaig n and fu nd raising fo r the Asylum Seeker Resou rce Cen tre. Entrenched into the winter months, the group then launched , Homelessness Awareness Week, with a similar two -pronged approach. All funds went to the local Vinnies.
A special thank you to our ga llant leaders and empowered group who successfully strove to make the phenomenon that is known as, Social Justice and Environment, part of the fabr ic of CLC. Mr Eoghan O'Sullivan Social Justice and Environment Coordinator

Sports House Cross country The Hou se Cross Country Carnival fo r all Year 7 -8 students was a perfect morning on the College oval and excell ent weather for a morni ng run. The students had the option to run or wal k the course, however, they were encou raged to jog if they were able to. Georgia Ke rr our Col lege Cross Country Captain ran in fro nt of the pack to guide the students around the cou rse. Not only vvas it an enjoyable contested house com petition as it also doubled as a selection trial for the lnterschool Cross Country Squad. The top ten students in each year level make the lnterschool Cross Cou ntry squad. Cong ratu lati ons to the students below who were awa rded house points for their team and received a ribbon for their placing .

Community Hockey practise match Catholi c Lad ies' College wou ld like to thank St Mon ica's for the amazing practice hockey match which occu rred on the 25th of May The afternoon was fil led with amazing experiences and skills we re developed by many of the girls on the CLC hockey team, learning how the game is played and the rules involved . Th is practice game not only allowed us to develop our ski lls, but learn to work and commun icate as a team, developing our relationships between each other. The day was fil led with memorable moments I'm su re we'll all look back on and laugh at, but most importantly it was about how we played and what we learnt about ou rselves as a team. The effort put in by all the girls was outstanding and the support we displayed for each other embraced what we are all here to do, play and have fun while doing it. St Mon ica's were an amazing team to play, and we hope to have them again next yea r fo r another match. The match an amazing experience, and the hockey team wou ld like to thank St Monica's, the referee, our own coaches and those who organised it. We are thankful fo r the experience and cannot wai t tor our tournament day. Victoria Rutter- Senior Player

Year 10 Reflection Feeney10B, Caitlyn You (10C}, Julia Ray and Georgia Siderov Uoint homeroom leaders 10D) and Maya Wa llens and Maigan Hounslow Uoint homeroom leaders 10E).
In 2018Year10 comprised one hundred and twelve girls, sorted into five homeroom groups. All of the girls would be attempting two VCE Religion Un its over the year but 30% of the group would be completing another Unit 1 - 2 combination, probably the largest percentage to this time. The Year Level was well led by Chelsea Tomada and Taylah Russell, supported by Isabella Papas (10A), Annabelle

students from Japan. They spen t severa l days at the school and took part in classes with the girls as well as other activities. Outside groups came in to help with areas such as Driver Education, led by the Road Smart team; Time Management skill s outlined and led by Elevate and finally some direction about Cyber Safety from Susan Mclean, an acknowledged world expert.
Unlike previous years, Year 10 carried out their Community Service throughout the year; where in the past they had carried it out through a one-week period. The Reflection Day thus, was a lead into the reasons for Community Service. Students learnt how it continued the char ism of Mary Aikenhead and the work of the Sisters of Charity. The girls spoke about this and then heard from the coordinator of the St Pius X Read ing Program. The day fin ished with the girls joining their homeroom teac hers to celebrate a Mass.
In a further attempt to support the charism of the school, the Year 10 leaders decided that they would carry out a major fund -raising event, as a year level, early in the year. After debate, a decision to run a BBQ at the school Athletics Carnival was reached. In between events, the girls cooked and sold sausages and cold drinks to al l other year levels. After a busy day, the reward for their efforts was a profit of over $600.00 that was put towards the CLC House in Kenya.
One of the high points for Year 10 is the fitting day for the VCEN CAL 'Black' jumper Academy Uniforms assisted the girls in selecting the correct sizes. While a minor th ing in itself, this day represents the real move into the final years of education at the school.
All the girls have taken part in this community service, they have

Mathematics Take two: unlimited possibilities
Let us define g as the number of possibilities, and x being the input or effort, and the equation goes like th is:
g:R
~
Year 72 students discovering that they can come to school to do maths in the Summer holidays, and teachers are willing to run extra tutorials (see photo)
R,g(x) =Jim xn , where n ER+. X->CO
This equation shows an unlimited range of possibilities. as long as there is unlimited domain input! The good news is that the outcomes are always positivei
An unlimited range of possibilities Warni ng: Th is article may conta in an excess of math emati cal terms and puns. The College has recently adopted the visual identity of "unlimited possibilities". As such, it is fitt ing for the Mathematics Key Learning Area to liven up to our unlimited possibilities and look at the range of possibilities offered at the College. But firstly, an important question .. What's the range?
Even in mathematics, there are several definitions of th is r-word. In statistics, the range is kn own as the difference between the highest value and the lowest va lue. If there is a highest value and a lowest value, it means we are pu tt ing breaks on our possibilities. No good! Let us use another definition. Whe n talking about mathematical functions, the range is a set of all outputs, based on ce rtain inpu ts. There is no limit to this definition of range, as long as there is continuous input. I thin k we wil l use this definition. Unlimited possibilities
Moral of the story: If we want to have unlimited possibilities, we need to continuously put in the effort, rega rdless of how cha ll enging or how difficult it may seem . Final thoughts
2018 has been a yea r where many students felt challe nged by the topics that they studied in Mathematics. It has also been a year where many of these same students explored unlimited opportunities in many different ways. It is widely acknowledged that Mathematics is a c hall eng ing subject, but as such, overcoming these chal lenges fee ls even sweeter. Here are some stories of students exploring these un li mi ted possibilities:
A Year 7 student discovering that Friday afternoon Maths Tutorials are an excellent opportunity for her to upgrade her skills and get in some extra practice before going home for the weekend A lot of students realising that sketching out mathematical problems on a whiteboard makes it a lot easier to see the steps necessary to solve a problem (see photo)
Let f be defined as the number of possibi lities, wh ile x is defined as the input (or the effort we put into achieving our unlimited possibilities). So, th is following equation shou ld rep resent "unli mited possibilities":
A Year 8 student who has found maths tests difficult has been consistent in coming to Maths Tutorials to practice her skills. She understands that her hard work will pay off in the future. It is tempt ing to find mathematics too difficu lt and find an excuse to give up. However, many students this year have gone against convention and chal lenged themse lves to work differently. (seen in each of the above examples.) They have gone above and beyond their usual work patterns to truly explore what it means to have un limited possibi lities. (If you would like a more mathematical explanation of the above two equations, please drop in to the next Maths Tutorial, and see a member of staff.)
1
f: R ~ R,f (x) = Jim X-> 0
Year 72 students also discovering that practice tests can run during the term break (see photo)
X
This equation appears as though even with zero effort, there is no limit to the possibil ities, but if you look a little deeper, you will rea li se it does not actual ly say that. Moral of the story: Zero effort will not translate into unlimited possibilities The refore, we need a better equation.

Th is program was designed to support students to develop skills to assist their journey to further study or work. Students learned and had the opportu nity
to practice a range of skills in a variety of settings, inclusive of workplace visi ts to Origin and National Australia Bank. The students were provided with real life situations which focused on the development of interviewing and communica tion skills and the completion of group tasks and presentations. In addit ion, the students were lucky enoug h to visit a Technical And Further Education facility, a Centre for Adult Education and the William Angliss Institute.

English Students in Year 9 English were invited to an information seminar, aligned with their unit study in Aboriginal Literature, to hear from Native Australian author, Boori Monty Pryor. Pryor, author of Maybe Tomorrow, addressed students on issues still relevant to Australia's identity today, such as Reconciliation. Across English students' achievements and ongoing progression were celebrated in areas of analytical , contextual and creative writing ; poetry; debating and public speaking, including developing point of view on current issues; persuasive language analysis and comparative analysis; literacy and literature.
English with its focus on literature, language and thinking provides wonderful opportunities for our girls to explore their understandings of the world and what it means to be human. In Years 7 to 9 English students took the opportunity to get involved in many literacy programs offering further enrichment, such as the English Perfect Competitions and the CLC Writing Competitions. One of the highlights for students was the CLC Writer's Festival which included workshops on creative writing and journal writing. Students had the privilege of hearing from guest speakers, including Australian author Lucy Christopher, who won the prestigious Branford Boase, Costa Book and Waterstone's Book Awards. Students also enjoyed hearing from and questioning past CLC student, Sammi Taylor, now online journalist and radio broadcaster at 3AW.

Author Steven Herrick ran workshop for Year 10 students, focusing on his poetic novel Lonesome Howl . The girls were fascinated by his thoughts on characters and themes and his advice on writing poetry. Professor Joshua Neilson, presented a lecture on Rear Window to the Year 12 students, offering rich insights into both Hitchcock's film techniques and the context of this thriller masterpiece. Theatre performances of Medea (Year 11) The Crucible and Year of Wonders (Year 12) brought these texts to life. We look forward to the enriching opportunities 2019 will bring with th e induction of many new and exciting texts for students. Ms Tulay Et and Mrs Tricia Smith English KLA Team Leaders

Languages strategies and intercultural understanding .
Languages provide us with windows into other cultures, allowing us to connect with people all over the world. There are ma ny benefits for continuing with German , Indonesian and Italian into the future. Firstly, learning another language can improve your thi nking skills and memory abilities. Bilingual students develop different parts of their brain, im proving critical thinking skills and this can help you to understand your own language even more. In addition , employers value the key skill s that language learners have, such as: the ability to communicate, working in team s. problem solving , critical thinking, inte rpersonal skills, highly developed learning
CLC I Caritas I 2018
2018 has been another busy and successful year for languages at CLC. We have had a variety of events, excursions and incursions throughout all of the year levels this year which are an important part of language learning at CLC. The highlight of the year was Languages week which was celebrated in Term 2 in the last week of May. We held the inaugural Languages celebration evening for Year 9 students and their parents in the hall which was a huge success. Each language class creatively used the language in their presentations for the guests and we were lucky enough to hear from three former CLC students, Ruby Martin (2015), Jul ia Broadbent (2016) and Beth Dazzi (2014), about where their study of languages has taken them after leaving CLC. Their stories and journeys of travel and study were inspiring to the students and parents. Signora Caterina Bartelink's inaugural spaghetti eating competition was also a popular event amongst some of our junior language students during Languages week and those who participated enjoyed the atmosphere as
well as the delicious spaghetti lunch that they devoured . Having the opportunity to travel to the country of the language that you are studying makes the language and the culture come alive for the students. Next year we are excited that there will be a tour to Indonesia at the end of Term One. Thank you in advance to Bu Khoo and Pak Sil for all that you will be doing in organising this tour and we wish the students the best of luck with their travels. Unfortunately, the tours to Italy and Germany were unable to be run this time but we hope to be able to reschedule them for the next few years. I would like to thank all of the students for their hard work and participation in the variety of events held this year. Many thanks to my team of supportive colleagues and I look forward to another exciting year in 2019! Ms Caroline Bailey Languages KLA Team Leader

Alumni
Throughout 2018 alumnae reunions have been celebrations of significant milestones for our former students. It has always been a privilege to witness women reconnecting so easily with their school friends - sharing conversations, memories and laughter as if it were just yesterday that they were all at school together. Venues have ranged from the McAllister Centre, the Centenary Building
66
and the Park Hyatt - being places of significance for our alumnae. As well as official reunions organised by the College, there are groups who continue to meet annually. For example, the Classes of 1953 and 1955 who gather each year to celebrate friendships that have stretched for over 60 years. What a wonderfully amazing commitment! We are forever fortunate to have interested and generous alumnae who continue to give back to the College by their involvement in College life. This year at our International Women's Day assembly, we welcomed Professor Cheryl Jones (CLC 1981), Stevenson Chair of Paediatrics and Head of Department at the University of Melbourne, the first woman to fill this role since its
inception in 1962. Cheryl is an Infectious Diseases specialist paediatrician based at the Royal Children's Hospital and an internationally recognised research leader. In her address she focused on how lucky students in Australia are to have been born in a country where, with a focused and committed approach , they have choices and opportunities to receive the education required to pursue chosen career paths. At the Founder's Day assembly, alumna Anne Marie Harrison (CLC 1976) CEO of the Victorian Institute of Sport, shared some memories of her time at CLC and her career journey, highlighting lessons learnt along the way, the role of women in the workforce and the satisfaction of working in an area one is passionate about.
Fifty of our alumnae were presenters at the popular Careers Forum which was well supported by our senior students and their families. Alumna, Amy O'Brien (CLC 2008), who has forged a career in the Arts (media and directing), opened the VCE Art Exhibition . During the year, other past students have been invol ved in Maths tutoring , the College production and sports coach ing. May the Alumnae programme continue to thrive and provi de opportunities for former students to 'stay connected' by supporti ng one another and the College in so many different ways.

Health and Physical Education 2018 has seen many new and exciting events take place in the Health and Physical Education faculty at CLC. This year, the focus has been on continuing student involvement as well as engagement in physical activity and health. Students took part in various lunchtime competitions, continued to borrow sports equipment at lunchtime and loved reading the Health and Physical Education fun facts in the daily school bulletin on SIMON . The Year 7 Dodgeball competition was a huge success as we saw each homeroom battle it out for the
68
championship. In the end , 7A were victorious beating 7C in the Grand Final! In term 4, by popular demand the Year 8 students also got the chance to battle it out and claim the prestigious title. Self-defence, Dance and Gymnastics continues to evolve within our programs with specialist instructors complementing the great efforts our students displayed in developing their sport specific skills and knowledge.

CLC Parents' Association Being part of the CLC Parents' Association is an opportunity to support our College co mmunity and our daughters, to enrich their experien c e at CLC. With the help of a small group of parents, we provide ancillary services to the College such as the BBQ days, Second Han d Un ifo rm Shop and Grounds and Building Mai ntenance via the Working Bees. We also created opportunities to meet other CLC pare nts and girls through social activities. We welcomed our new Year 7 students at the annua l Year 7 Welcome BBQ held in the refurbished lower courtyard where parent, students, staff and PA members mingled and enjoyed a hamburger. This was followed by the CLC Family Fun day at Funfields. Mot her and Daughters' relationships were cele brated with our annual Walk and Morning Tea on th e Sunday before Mothers' Day, hosted in the Sister Una McAllister Centre.
CLC I Caritas I 2018
Our Year 12 students also enjoyed a High Tea with their mothers as the girls reflect upon their CLC journey. Thank you to Amanda and Bruce Webb from Ballara Reception Centre for hosting the Year 12 event. We tried a new event to celebrate Fathers' Day this year, with Father and Daughter Rock Climbing at Hard Rock. Our events are run at cost, being a community service to the College. Funds raised from the BBQ days and Second-Hand Uniform shop are donated back to the school. This year we donated $12,500 to purchase graduation gowns for the Year 12 cohort going forward. Penguin Dry Cleaning have donated the cleaning of the gowns so there is no cost to parents for this. We have also donated $1500 raised from the Mother's Day Raffle Walk to the Edmund Rice Foundation for the Women of Em Bui-Bui , Kenya and CLC House.
Thank you to all the parents who have supported the PA in so many ways you . We look forward to seei ng you next year, supporting an event as a participant or volunteering via Trybooking. New volunteers would be welcome to be able to keep the BBQ Days and Uniform shop open. If you can help for a few hours a term our PA Meeting dates and times will be in the College newsletter next year. Finally, I particularly want to thank all the Parents Association committee. There would be no BBQ's, Second Hand Uniform Shop or co-ordination of the Working Bees without you. You are appreciated. Mrs Deirdre Hosking President CLC Parents' Association

Staff Farewells Marianne Roberts Mrs Marianne Roberts was a versatile, comm itted and hard -working teacher. She began her career at Cathol ic Lad ies' College in 1988 as a Music and Eng lish teacher. Marianne was also the College accompanist and became very involved in school product ions over many years, both as a mus ician and wardrobe mistress. As an Eng li sh teacher, she further demonstrated the d iversity of her ta lents and abil ities. Her passion for nurturing good grammar, clear thinking, and a love for literature and learning, was evident in al l her classes. Her studen ts' success was paramount always' Marianne was a found ing teacher of Year 7 Interdisciplinary Stud ies. As a Year 8 Coordi nator, she was most interested in the wellbeing of her students. She formed c lose connect ions with the girls and was therefore invaluable as the inaugural Alumni and Arch ives Coordinator. This posi ti on enabled the school to forge continuing relationships with former studen ts. Marianne arranged members of the CLC Alumni to be guest speakers at ca reers evenings and many assemblies, includ ing Founder's Day and International Women's Day. Our studen ts loved to hear of the pathways taken by alumn i and their inspirational stories resonated with the girls. We wish Marianne we ll in her ret irement. Her many inte rests will keep her busy and we're sure she'll stay connected with the Co llege and attend some of the alumni reunions as a forme r teacher.
Lynn Mason It is with much gratitude for al l that she has shared wi th us that we bid Lynn Mason farewe ll to pursue other creat ive endeavours. Lynn's Journey at CLC began as, Lynn Mccrohan, a student in East Melbourne, a year before the College moved to Eltham . Her employmen t began in 1996 as a part-time assistant in the Visual Arts faculty. Lynn's passion for creativity and her ability to multi-task soon found her becoming involved in publicity and in 2002 the production of The Collegian and Caritas, as wel l as her work in the Art Facul ty. Lynn inspired girls to wo rk creatively as teams to produce the College Caritas they cou ld be proud of. In 2007, she officia lly took cha rge of College publi c ity wh ich then morphed into a Public Re lati ons and Marketing role. Lynn has been able to turn her hand to just about anything creative, liaising with web designers, photographers and marketing gurus. She has a very keen eye for detai l and design and is an orig ina l thinker. A lasting legacy is Lynn's organisation of the Aborig inal Immersion Experience. Since 2005over 180 staff and students participated in these cultural and eye -opening trips, developing special connections with aborig inal commun ities and fellow travellers. It was her vision to develop the Reconciliation Group here at CLC. So many spiritua l moments have evolved for staff and students through her vision to ensure an understanding of Indigenous communities. CLC wil l miss Lynn and sincerely wi sh her all the very best for her future.
Christina Pascalis Sadly, is it true that all good things must eventually end, and so It is with a heavy heart th at the Col lege fa rewe ll s a wonderful teacher in Christina Pascal is as she moves on to retirement at the end of this year. Christina has been a part of the CLC community for 22 years. During this time she has served her students and the College in a wide variety of leadership roles and, most recently, as VCE Coordinator, a role she excel led in wi th her attention to detail and genu ine concern for every student in their senior years Journey. As a teacher Christina's preparation, subject knowledge and contagious passion fo r her subjects has both inspired and capt ivated her studen ts. On a personal level, Christina is going to be missed both as a colleague and as a friend. Having wo rked with her since 1997 it still came as a surprise when she announced that this yea r would her last. Christina's wisdom, expertise and great sense of humour are special and uplifting qualities that made working with her a delight. CLC will a be different place without presence next year In the coming years Christina is looking forward to spending more time with her family and especially wi th her grandchildren. So Christin a, thank you for being such a wonderfu l role-model, a wise leader, a most generous col league and, most importan tly, a va lued friend. Every one of the CLC community wishes you every blessing and a wonderfu l new stage in your journey.

In the Art Faculty we finished the year with a bang as we celebrated the remarkable achievements of our Year 12 Art, Fashion, Visual Communication, Media and Drama students, at our VCE Art Exhibition. The College hall was filled with an array of artworks from porcelain flowers , plaster masks, evening dresses, detailed canvases, business promotional materials and even a silk painted wonderland installation. Our Drama students performed their final solos and there was a screening of our Media students' films. Special guest Amy Bryant
(school captain 2010) inspired us with her journey from Year 12 Media student to her current position in an advertising firm. She spoke about how valued young people are in the Media industry and the personal chal lenges and rewards of making art. 2018's Art Captain Ruby Lam spoke about her experience of art at CLC and the importance that Art plays in her life. The Visual Arts continued to play a significant role in the College life with Ruby Lam making us an amazing sculpture to celebrate International Women's Day. This became a communal art project as all students were invited to sign their names on two large metal hands. Ruby also worked with ex-student and talented glass artist Mariella McKinley to create our College themed Justice, banner. Our inaugural Junior Art Exhibition proved a great success with the halls of the
College hung with work from our Year Seven to Year Eleven. Art students. In fortnightly Art club a small but dedicated group of girls painted and sewed in Thursday lunchtimes.
with Digital Art. The students made stop motion films and used the green screen and Photoshop to manipulate images celebrating women in technology.
Two classes of Year Sevens worked on our pilot program of Project Based Learning , the girls worked in Art, Science and Drama to investigate sustainability in the schoolyard. Each small group posed a significant question, investigated and then created and presented their solution. We had possum houses, butterfly friendly garden designs and recycled art.
This year I was fortunate to accompany our students on the Indigenous Immersion to the APY Lands in Central Australia. Members of the Communities shared with us many art forms including basket weaving and painting. It was such a privilege to be able to bring some of these ideas and techniques back to the classroom.
Technology had an increased presence in Art with students exploring digital art in the classroom. VCE Art, Fashion and Visual Communication student Tuesday Moon created incredible digital images. A group of Year Nine students visited the Nillumbik, Banyule Technology Hub in Greensborough for a workshop
We were thrilled to be part of the annual Catholic Education Week exhibition, Sisters of Charity Christmas Card Competition and Nillumbik's Creative Minds exhibition. I would like to congratulate and thank all our 2018 Art students for sharing their skills and passion and creativity. Mrs An Durham The Arts KLA Team Leader

Year 11 Reflection
As we farewell 2018, I reflect on all of the amazing connections and opportunities that have been presented to the Year 11 students this year. It has been a period for growth and transition into senior studies for all of the students completing their VCE and VCAL certificates. Year 11 students have been involved in a diverse array of co-curricular activities this year, including the annual
94
House Athletics and Swimming Carnivals, Founders Day, the College Production, Performing and Visual Arts Nights, excursions, interschool sporting competitions, Reflection Day, School College Captain Elections, Elevate Studies Skills Seminars and the social highlight of the year-the Year 11 Formal. The Year 11 Formal was held at the Manor on High in Epping. The girls all looked stunning and had a wonderful time with their partners and friends, dancing, taking photos and enjoying a delicious meal. All of these wonderful activities have contributed to the students' ongoing development and experiences of being part of a caring and nurturing environment atCLC.
I would like to congratulate all of the 141Year11 students who have consistently contributed to the College community with enthusiasm and maturity this year. It was evident during the Year 12 transition fortnight at the end of the year that they are all ready and excited about reaching their final year of secondary studies and giving it a real go next year. I would like to thank the Year 11 Student Leaders - Victoria Wingjan and Josephine Hurrel and Year 11 Homeroom Representatives - Lucy Roff, Claudia Jackson , Sarah Wise, Ruby Horsefield, Mia Petrakis, Stephanie Dimitrovski and Chloe Livy for all of their hard work and commitment this year. I have been very lucky to have such dedicated and enthusiastic
leaders by my side. I would also like to thank all of the amazing Year 11 Homeroom teachers this year: Ms. Guardiani, Mr. Sharples, Mr. Brasier, Mrs. Kirley, Mr. Chalhoub, Mrs. Notting, and Mrs. Jackson who have supported and nurtured the girls endlessly every morning in homeroom. I am grateful to have been a part of the Year 11 journey in 2018 and hopeful that I have encouraged th e students to realise their unlimited possibilities and move clcser to fulfilling their hopes and dreams.

VCAL organising a complex incursion or excursion. The following list outlines the types of projects chosen by the students: • Promoting and organising blood donation by staff and students over18;
In VCAL this year the students have participated in a wide variety of hands on learning activities. The broad range of learning outcomes have benefited the students in numerous ways. When asked , the students gave very positive comments on how they have most enjoyed their work placements. The students also commented on how they are gaining skills and knowledge readily transferable to future employment beyond the College. Highlights of the year have been when the Year 12 VCAL students completed their Senior Projects where they were involved in

• Presentation to Year 7 students on cyber bullying and VCAL students on bullying and workplace harassment by Bully Zero Australia Foundation and WorkSafe Victoria; • Exploring homelessness with Urban Seed, Food Handling Certificate for the St Vincent de Paul community partnership, Respectful Relationship workshops run by Undercurrent Australia, ArtVo Gallery, African drumming and self-defence classes for VCAL students; • Barista training for Year 11 VCAL students; and • Dance class at Ministry of Dance for Year 12 VCAL students.
Catholic Ladies' College initiated a new community partnership with Lalor Secondary College and St Vincent de Paul to support families that have been identified anonymously within the area. The students prepared a main meal and a dessert under the guidance of Simon Matzke (Chef/Food and Technology teacher), the food parcels were then delivered by members of the St Vincent de Paul team. Within a heart beat the kitchen was transformed into an industrial cooking sensation. The students had willingly accepted the challenge of preparing meals for eight families ranging in size from 2 - 6 people within a time frame of three hours. Our resident chef Tayla Burn ensured the students were well supported, and a surprise visit from the Nillumbik Mayor Peter Clarke provided positive encouragement to all involved. Behind the scenes VCAL students completed the costings for the cooking sessions, designed the aprons, shopped
for the groceries at Woolworths and gained an insight about the Society of St Vincent de Paul. To conclude the community partnership both principals (Stephanie Evans, Catholic Ladies' College and Corey Jewell, Lalor Secondary College) attended a brief presentation to acknowledge the students involved and college pens were exchanged. Michael Said from St Vincent de Paul presented certificates and explained how their cooking creations have allowed famil ies a night off from cooking and more family time together. The comments received from the families have been overwhelming positive 'compliments to the cooks' and better than words were the joy, delight, smiles and happiness in their faces as they opened up their beautifully packaged evening meal.

Media Team Media Team Reflection It was a pleasure to witness the enthusiasm of this year's5+ Media Team. Their dedication to supplying quality content to the Media Team produced, students only website, "The Loop", was really commendable. The Loop took a slightly different direction this yea r under the guidance of Leaders Evangeline Hurrel and Caitlin Zortea who chose to focus on creative content such as photography, creative writing and the Arts. All the Media Team enjoyed th is and worked on their submissions at the weekly Media Team meetings. I wish the girls of the Media Team well and hope that 2019 is another year of learning, fun and growth in interaction with The Loop.

Letter from the Editor
T he da un t ing but exciting task of producing the 2002 Ce ntenary Year Caritas was my initiation into magazi ne production and t he begi nn ing of my work w ith t he Magazi ne Team students for several yea rs. I loved the ene rgy and ent husiasm of t he g irls who chose th is co-curricula r activity,
110
t heir d ivers ity and thei r int erest s. We never fai led t o have a student rise t hroug h t he ranks over the ir six years at C LC, to become outstan d ing Magaz ine Team Leaders. A lways so wi lling to share w hat t hey learned w ith t he you nger students and so proud of thei r achievements as they, along w ith t he who le team, presented t heir respective classes wit h a copy of the Ca ritas on the last day of schoo l. With the advancement in tec h nology came a change in t he nature an d style of t he Magazine, it slowly becom ing a more professiona l publication. Deve loping the skil ls learn t became as much about dig ita l compet ency as about copy w riti ng, layou t s and
photograp hy, all of wh ich t he girls whole hearted ly embraced and e njoyed. It has never ceased to amaze me how Caritas too k on a life of its own. To see each publication come toget her was very sati sfying; shap ing, wri t ing and watc hing the Col lege 'year t hat was' emerg ing on the pages. Du ring t he past four years Caritas has been produce d without a Magazine Team, but in a qui rky twist of fa t e , I was thrilled and t hankf ul to have jo ined creati ve forces w ith past student and tale nted Graphic Designer Ni ki t a Frayne (nee Wa lsh C LC 2003) w ho was herse lf a member o f t he Magazine Team 2002 - 2003.
As I reflect on this my 17th and final Caritas I give thanks fo r all the Magazine Team students w ho ta ugh t me so much an d the fun we had along the wa y. I am also very grateful to the CLC commun ity who were always very accommodating at meeting dea dl ines for arti cl es and photos. Th ank you fo r t he t rust placed in me to prod uce t his archiva l document as a visual presentation of t he Co llege each year. I hope you enj oy read ing t he 20 18 Caritas as much as I ha ve enjoyed producing each and every edition . Mrs Lynn Mason (nee Mc Crohan CLC 1975) Magazine and Media Team Coordinator
