Volume 17 - 5 June, 2012 Dear Parents and Students I thank Ms Carmel Dunne for her kind permission to publish this reflec on given to us with love in this me of mystery. Walking into a lovely a ernoon with heavy heart the beginning sunset yielded a pink cloud‐ one which took shape as the etching of a young woman, dancing, tantalising, changing direc on, whipped by wind and unseen currents but never once losing beauty, integrity, sense of form. A young woman now gone from us . . . . but deep in our hearts lives the memory of one – undemanding, beau ful, joyous and true. Her fight for life an example of for tude. She lingered experiencing the unknown the extraordinary hidden flights of beauty and intensity, of invita on and response. She seemed to know that me was needed before surrendering and going from her beloved family and friends. The united skills and hopes of all could not pull her back into this life but gave us me to know that she needed to be released into a life of eternal blessedness and beauty where she is enveloped. The girls in their grief and suffering gave all they could to their friend – their prayer, their love, their realisa on of the fragility of this life and its preciousness ‐ all offered as gi . They drew from themselves the power of transforma on, contempla on, hope and wonder; intui on, memory, generosity, depth of compassion, understanding of forgiveness and wholeness. We have all experienced a transfigura on – to know that she has gone from us and we are le with her smile and the memory of her graciousness. She dances on and we too in our lives are called to reach out to the unseen, mysterious pulses of our unfolding days. Carmel Dunne (Principal Loreto 1991‐2010) 31/5/12

fÑÉÜàá WxÑtÜàÅxÇà axãá BSGSA Sport Soccer Round 4 - This Week’s Draw: 6 June This week (Correction Day) the Open A, Open B and Junior A teams play at home. Open A and Junior A team both play against Brigidine Open B team play Our Lady’s at Tennyson FC (Gregory Terrace fields). Junior B team play away to Brigidine at Taringa Rovers, Indooroopilly. For the away games, could parents please be ready to pick up students when the bus arrives between 5:305.45pm, depending on traffic. A bus will take students to Annerley for the home games (finish at 5:00pm) but students need to be picked up at the venue. Students are reminded to bring their uniform, shin pads, mouth guards and water bottles. If students are to be picked up at the away venues a written note must be provided by morning tea on game day. Good luck for Round 4! Mr Jones - Soccer Coordinator
Results from Round 3: Open A Soccer The Open A soccer girls played a tough match against Lourdes Hill College winning the match 4-0 with some great goals. The first came from Bridget playing at centre full back where with great individual skills she was able to dribble the ball and score. The second goal came from a great through ball with Jemima finishing with a terrific left foot goal. In the second half we started a little slowly but ended with two excellent goals, one by Shannon and the other from Zoe-Lee getting on the end of a cross. Jess McLean - Coach Junior B Soccer This week the Loreto Junior B’s played St Rita’s College. It was an unfortunate loss with the final result being 3-0 to St Rita’s College. Although the Loreto girls started slowly, they really pulled together as a team and defended very strongly in the second half. Good work to Tea Marinov who saved us quite a few times in the defensive line and Adrianna Urbina who made some good runs on the attack. Nick Laidlaw - Coach Open B Round 3 for Loreto Open B didn’t start off quite the way we hoped! Four quick goals by St Rita’s in the first 20 minutes put us on the back foot, but our girls fought hard to regain control. In the 2nd half defensive changes helped to stop the flow of goals by St Rita’s, with Fiona’s strong defence preventing more goals from being scored. St Rita’s scored only two goals in the 2nd half. This game provided a great learning curve for all players. Well done everyone. Don’t forget there will still Michael Kelly - Coach be a game on 6 June (Correction Day), but no training on Monday 4th.
Hockey - This Week’s Draw: 6 June Loreto One (Years 11 and 12) have a bye Loreto Two (Years 8, 9 and 10) play Brigidine College.
Hockey Draw for Wednesday 13 June Loreto One play Mt St Michael’s One and Loreto Two have a rest till week one of Term Three.
Hockey Results Rd 2: OPEN ONE This week, we came up against Loreto Open B for a fun-filled fixture that even the rain could not spoil. The game was played in great spirit with good quality hockey coming from both sides. Larissa Claridge benefitted from staying up high for most of the match and scored a great goal from a deflection in the circle, while Ellen Carey netted two goals thanks to her powerful hitting skills. Laura Felschow distinguished herself in the goal box, filling in for our usual keeper and keeping out two powerful shots that rocketed her way. Our backs worked very well together, minimising the time the ball was spent in our half and they executed some great clearing hits up to the forward line. Vanessa Arteaga was a great contributor to the situation through some tenacious marking and great intercepts of the opposition’s free hits. The match ended up with a 3 - 0 scoreline to us, but the general feeling was that everyone was a winner due to the good will displayed by both sides over the whole match. Matt Lourigan - Open One Coach OPEN TWO Loreto 2 really picked up their game against the Loreto 1 team this week. Excellent team work and communication by all throughout the match. After starting off playing mostly defensively, there was a real turning point towards the end of the first half. The younger girls lifted to the occasion, frustrating the older players who thought they were going to get it easy. The second half was very well played in both defence and attack. There were a number of powerful shots at goal that narrowly missed. Great job girls! Ian Wright and Eliza Mooney - Open Two Coach / Trainer

On Correction Day, Wednesday 6 June, all girls will need to be in the Mary Ward Centre at Loreto College at 3.00pm sharp for the games.
Netball Reports Round 3: Junior A - The experience of winning and the excitement and celebrations that followed last week’s game allowed the girls to go into Round 3 with confidence and determination. This was evident right from the start, with a close first quarter finishing 3-2 to the Loreto girls. Although the weather had a turn for the worst the girls stayed strong and united as a team and opposed a strong and skilful Lourdes Hill. I was pleased with the effort of every girl this week with special mention going to Emily O’Brien and Brigitte Mastry whose attack play encompassed the skills developed in training. Overall a fantastic game with demonstrations of improvement throughout the court despite the narrow loss. Great work! Coach: Clare Gill Junior B – Defeated St John Fisher 18-10.The game got off to a slow start, with the girls dreading the rain and feeling the cold. However, once the game got into action the girls worked very well together. Our defence was very strong down the court and special mention goes to Cara Wing, Sophie Muggeridge, Brianna O’Donnell and Charlotte Grigson as they all utilised their defensive skills well. Player of the match goes to Emily Littleton this week for her beautiful passes that opened up the court at time when our attack was weak. Congratulations girls, as we still remain undefeated!! Coach: Josie Woolaston Junior C were defeated by Lourdes Hill College 7-11. This game was played in tough conditions. Wet grass courts, and that was before the rain came! Our opposition intercepted a lot of our passes, which cost us the game. Chelsea Baxter was effective in her passing, waiting until a good lead was presented. Amanda Hansen did her own share of intercepting the ball and did so cleanly, hanging on to almost all of her intercepts. Coach: Mrs Gold

Junior D -The girls started their third game off to the season with more enthusiasm and determination than ever. Although the weather was cold and miserable, the girls continued to do their best on court, winning 27-1 against Brigidine. They showed great determination even when it started to rain, never giving up on what they had left of the game. The girls moved a lot better down the court, showing their hard work at training. Special mention must go to the whole team for playing out of position when they had to but particularly to Imogen Day for her great shooting and to Julia Palmer for moving around the court brilliantly. Good luck for next week girls; I cannot wait for another training, you are so much fun to coach! Coach: Hannah Meecham Intermediate A -. The girls played well but were defeated by St Rita's 17-9. They played in tough conditions as the courts were slippery from a downpour shortly before the game. The team welcomed back Anastasia O’Brien who played her first game since injuring her arm. Ashlee Nichol played a fantastic game at goal shooter rarely missing a shot. Coach: Courtney Milne Intermediate B1 - With wet courts and a slippery ball after a sudden downpour we had a very lively game against Lourdes Hill, resulting in a 17-7 win for Loreto. With only seven players, each girl managed to play a full four quarters, although the conditions meant stepping and dropped balls were frequent from both sides. The girls used the many turn overs to their advantage and their defence was superb. Well done to Hannah Dalton and all our shooters who prevailed in the ring despite an intimidating defence from the opposing GK and GD. A huge thank you must go to the Lourdes Hill team who stood shoulder to shoulder with us during our minutes silence for Megan. Coach: Bridget O’Connor & Mrs Matheson Intermediate B2 - The Intermediate B2 netball team had their best week yet, only losing by 2 to Brigidine (14-12). This team is really improving and has shown more enthusiasm and skill development than ever before. Special mention must go to our two players of the match: Alyssa Bell and Hannah Radvan. They both had a spectacular game with numerous intercepts and outstanding passes. Watch this space because the intermediate B2 team is working its way up the BSGSA netball ladder! Coach: Emma Macleod Intermediate C have continued their winning streak defeating San Sisto 26-11. Despite the wet conditions they continued to show improvements. Well done to all girls on a great game. Coach: Magadeline Ryan Intermediate D defeated Mary MacKillop 22 to 13. Transitional play down the court was excellent and allowed Loreto to establish their early lead. Shooters; Sabrina Sydney, Emily Thomson and Kassidy Graham were standouts with their accurate shooting and movement within the circle. It was another fantastic game from the 9B's. Well done girls! Coach: Briony Logan Intermediate E - A great game by the girls on Wednesday, with a convincing win of 19-3 against Brigidine College. A fantastic first half with excellent shooting by Maddie McKay, Sarah Nicholson and Alanah Kotzas and great teamwork down the court. Good work girls, keep it up! Coach: Tara Cullinan Open A Coach: This week brought us a challenging game against a strong Our Lady’s College team. We were outsized but not outclassed in being defeated 21-14 on wet courts. I was proud of the girls for the determined effort put in for the entirety of the game. Certainly we dropped too much ball in the slippery conditions and ball security is something we will focus on in training. Annie Passingham played a composed and skilful game of netball when placed under considerable pressure from the opposing defensive line up. Hannah Fowler is to be commended on the effective feeds she delivered to the shooters. It was nice to finally have Steph Esprester back on court with us after extended injury. This talented team is working hard and will continue to improve as the season progresses. Well done! Coach: Meg Logan Open B played Mt Alverna(2) and were defeated 20 - 14. The girls played better this week and put up a good fight considering that they were playing on a wet court due to the weather. Meg Roberts played very well in the centre court and Chiara Asnicar had a good game in shooting.. Coach: Karen Holahan Open C –After being down two goals at half time, Loreto amped it up during the third quarter putting great defensive pressure on the ball and picking up a lot of turnovers. The girls continued this in the fourth despite the pouring rain, and went on to prove they were the better team. Special mention to Brigid Oliver whose commitment to the ball and overall game was outstanding! Coach: Larissa Hughes
