Dear Parents and Students Recently I was delighted to receive a phone call from a parent expressing her profound pride in the example of “felicity” shown by Loreto students a ending a recent interschool event. Here, she told me, our girls stood out as being ‘truly special’ – not because of their performance or success (although I am sure that was superb) but because of the way in which they genuinely cheered and celebrated the success of each and every compe tor – not just Loreto girls, but all girls who were compe ng. They encouraged and mo vated each compe tor to reach the finish line and to be proud in so doing. This posi ve and suppor ve a tude reflects much of what it means to be ‘felicitous’ and ‘Lore an’. This brings to mind an extract from “Teachers Who Change Lives” (Metcalfe & Game 2006) that I’d like to share. In this book Julie McCrossin, radio broadcaster, describes the school of her youth as being “a powerhouse of ac vity”. I believe Loreto schools to be such. “When a school is a powerhouse of ac vity, this diversity doesn’t fragment the community or produce narrowly specialized students. On the contrary, the poten al of each student is drawn out by connec ons between students, between ac vi es and between the school and the broader community . . . the values are those of cultural inclusiveness and respect . . . A diverse school offers everyone the chance to excel at something; it also offers everyone the precious opportunity to be valued when they are not the best. Students learn that there are some ac vi es at which they will fail, and others they enjoy without honours. They learn that their achievements are important but only part of life. They learn openness to different experiences and respect for difference. They learn the value of co‐opera on, and the difference between crea ve and destruc ve compe on. In a ‘powerhouse of ac vity’ ferocious compe on is transformed into an inclusive spirit of co‐opera on. A school’s culture is rich when applause for each person is recogni on for the role of every person. The school is teaching values by valuing everyone’s unique contribu on”. This is the Loreto of my childhood and this is the Loreto Coorparoo of today. Dear Lord, We give thanks for the many gi s with which we have been blessed and most especially for the gi s that we are to each other. Let us find in others always, your love, your spirit and your inspira on. Let us rejoice in our difference and celebrate our diversity. Amen. ANNUAL SCHOOL REPORT 2010 In accordance with the “Schools Assistance Act”, the annual compliance report for the College for 2010 is now available. The report for 2010 can be accessed ‘on‐line’ via our website www.loreto.qld.edu.au

BEST WISHES Our thanks and best wishes to Ms Carmel Hickey for her me given generously to the students this term in place of Mr Kenny. It has been a pleasure to have her as part of ‘our Loreto family’. This coming term both Mrs Kathy Hedemann and Ms Diane McGowan will be taking leave. We wish them well for their break and hope that their me away will be blessed. “FOOD FOR THOUGHT” from The Week 10/6/11 Woman Power Teams that include women are collec vely more intelligent than teams without them, says the Harvard Business Review. Harvard researchers gave subjects aged 18 to 60 standard IQ tests and assigned them randomly to teams where they were asked to complete several tasks including brainstorming, decision‐making, visual puzzles and one complex problem. Teams with higher average IQ scores were not as successful as the teams with women. In fact, the data showed “the more women the be er” un l the extreme end – a very small amount of men is be er than all women. The researchers found women were more likely “to listen to each other, share cri cism construc vely and have open minds” in team se ngs. FINAL PRINT EDITION It could be argued that this week’s edi on of the College Newsle er is a “collector’s item”. I’m not so sure about that, but it definitely marks a point in me as the “final print” edi on. From next term, the Newsle er will be published in electronic format only. We thank you for suppor ng this environmentally sustainable ac on. CONDOLENCES The College expresses its sincere sympathies and condolences to Fr Wayne Stanhope on the recent passing of his father, Alan, in Melbourne. May our Gracious God grant him eternal rest and peace. Amen. On behalf of the staff, I take this opportunity to wish all students and families a happy, safe, res ul and enjoyable holiday. I am aware that a number of families will be travelling extensively, we thus pray for you in your journeys. May your holidays be filled with special mes and loving memories. Yours sincerely Cheryl Hamilton Principal
