Junior School Bulletin Issue 15 / 31 October 2014
From the Head of Junior School Exhibition The Primary Years Programme (PYP) Exhibition represents a significant event in the life of a PYP school and student, synthesizing the essential elements of the PYP and sharing them with the whole school community. The students conducted an inquiry and then shared their results on Wednesday night. I would like to congratulate the students on the work that they put into all stages of the inquiry process and the exhibition night was a great culminating event that allowed them to display their understanding of the topics studied.
guests, while the Director, Bronwyn Waters, shared valuable information about the vision and daily operations of the Centre. We are certainly very excited about the ELC starting in January, as the Centre will provide our youngest students with the best possible start to their schooling. Captain’s Speeches One of the aspects of the Junior school that a lot of students look forward to in Year 6 is the opportunity to take on formal leadership opportunities. The Year 5 students have had the chance to nominate for the positions of House, Sporting and Junior School Captain positions for 2015. I was impressed with the quality of the responses in their written applications: they spoke very eloquently in their interviews and they were very articulate in their speeches. Congratulations to all students who have worked extremely hard on their applications. The process of preparing an application, sitting an interview and giving a speech are very good skills to develop, no matter the final outcome of the election. Everybody is Somebody At St Andrews, we believe that everybody is somebody. One of my great privileges each week is to handout a treat to all of the students who are celebrating their birthday. This is one way for me to get to know all of the students and in some small way share in their special day.
Teddy Bear’s Picnic and Day with a Difference Today as a part of Teddy Bear’s Picnic, we welcomed the 84 new Prep students that will be joining us in 2015. All other students in the Junior School as part of Day with a Difference, had the opportunity to visit next year’s classrooms, while the Year 6 students got the opportunity to familiarise themselves with Middle School. Both of these events are an important part in helping children to transition into the College, and the next year level. Helping students to transition effectively is crucial, as it means the learning can start sooner. Early Learning Centre Recently we held an information evening in relation to the new Early Learning Centre. Mr Kotzur welcomed all of the

From the Deputy Head of Junior School & PYP Coordinator In recent weeks, our Year 6 classrooms have been buzzing with enthusiastic young inquirers who were in the final stages of preparing for the PYP Exhibition Evening. The PYP Exhibition required each student to engage in a collaborative, transdisciplinary inquiry process that involves them in identifying, investigating and offering solutions to real-life issues or problems. The Exhibition offers many opportunities for student leadership and ownership. Students are empowered to select a particular issue, plan, organize and present their inquiry.
This year as part of the Exhibition display, students were able to show case their creativity in the form of a visual art piece. A transdisciplinary approach of incorporating both The Arts and Technology, resulted in a self-portrait painting. The process of creating the artwork was documented using augmented reality. Augmented reality is the combination of the real scene viewed by the user and a virtual scene generated by the computer that augments the scene with additional information. Parents were able to download an app called the ‘Aurasma App’ to view the Auras.
To support students with managing the inquiry, mentors from across the Junior School Staff were identified. Exhibition groups communicated regularly on a weekly basis with their mentors during negotiated meeting times. The primary role of the mentor was to act as a guide and resource in the accomplishment of specific tasks during the exhibition process. This was achieved by assisting each student in the group to ask questions, suggest resources, help to interpret difficult information, and help facilitate interviews or phone calls to outside organisations. There were many groups who wrote emails and/or made phone calls to primary and secondary sources of information. Some groups managed to venture outside of the College campus to meet with knowledgeable experts within the wider community. Students developed specific questions to find out more information directly from these primary resources.

The students were excited to welcome many members of our College Community and visitors to our Exhibition Evening, which was held on Wednesday 29th October. Instruct a wise man and he will be wiser still; Teach a righteous man and he will add to his learning.

ELC News Over the past week, I have attended two professional development sessions looking at the ‘Value of Play”. These two workshops have been very important to affirm the importance of a Play Based Program in the ELC. The more input that children have regarding their environment and learning, the more it encourages their independence and ability to become confident learners. It is important that the children contribute to their physical environment. We will ensure that in the ELC this is a central focus. It is stated in the Queensland Kindergarten Learning Guideline (QKLG) that ‘shared decision making facilitates children learning, fosters positive social behaviours and helps them to feel empowered to make choices” (QKLG page 25). It is also reflected in Learning Outcome 4 (EYLF) Children are confident and involved learners, and in the National Quality Standards Area 3, standard 3.2. Looking at the environment set up, that it is inclusive for all and promotes competence and exploration. This is why PLAY is what we will do well in the ELC with supportive, encouraging educators that are passionate and caring for all of the children in our care. We are currently in the recruiting stage and by the end of November will have all staff confirmed. Don’t forget you are never too old to PLAY!
Today, we have some idea of how big the universe is – the fact that there are billions of stars within a galaxy and that there are billions of galaxies blows our minds – well it does mine. It speaks to us that God transcends anything we can possibly imagine. Our minds can never hope to grasp any tiny portion of all that God is and does! The universe declares this to us but thankfully, God does not leave us simply in awe of how powerful and amazing He is. If this is all we knew then we would be left worshipping a deity that is all powerful but not connected with us. Our God is all that the Heavens declare – but He is so much more. Through Christ being born as one of us we have a direct connection with the almighty, transcendent God. Through Christ’s life, death and resurrection each of us is afforded the privilege of being personally connected with the God of the universe. And what a beautiful privilege this is. Living day by day in a personal relationship with God blesses us with eyes of faith that leads us to see all of life as a gift from the all-powerful God. It blesses us with forgiveness and acceptance of self and others and leads us to always being hopeful even in the direst of circumstances. As we move through Term 4 may all of us be struck by awe and wonder at the majesty of God and may we also see Him at work in the everyday beauty of our community at work and play, living out what is to be God’s children who relate with Him and share all we do with Him.

Student Congratualtions Congratulations to Toby Potter who also received a Bronze Cultural Award in 2014 but was not published in the last Bulletin. Congratulations Toby!
PAT News Special congratulations to our PAT Speech and Drama Teacher Mrs Cassie Zorko who welcomed baby Sophie into the world on the 20th October – little sister to Matilda. Both Sophie and Cassie doing very well. We also welcome back to St Andrews, Linda van Vierson who is looking after Cassie’s PAT students for Term 4. Dance Night Last Friday the spotlight shone on Dance at St Andrews with our annual Dance Night. This was a wonderful evening that showcased dancers across all of the College – from Private PAT, Dance Troupes, Animi and Class Work as well as some of our soloists. There is so much talent here at St Andrews and it is always an absolute joy to watch our young performers share their gifts. Special thanks to all who performed and to our amazing choreographers, Ms Paula Guild and Miss Kim Reynolds – thank you for the important role you both play in our dancers’ journeys. Thanks to Tina Tanguy and Animi for performing on the evening.
Year 6 News Sleep Currently in Year 6 we have been working on the PYP Exhibition and inquiring into a topic of interest related to well-being. Our Transdisciplinary Theme is ‘Who We Are’ and our Central Idea is ‘The choices made influence our well-being.’ Our topic for Exhibition is sleep and we visited the Genesis Sleep Centre for information. We learnt about sleep apnoea and how the Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) machines work. We also visited a sleep specialist and he helped us answer some of our questions.
We learnt that if you have trouble sleeping you need to avoid things that stimulate your brain eg. electronics, sugary foods, things with caffeine, exercise before bed and maybe even any worries you have. Another thing you can do is have a regular night routine. That means having a bedtime and wake up time, a usual time to have dinner or a shower, a usual time for homework, and a usual time for electronics. (Shutdown electronics at least an hour before bed.) If you do all of these things it could help you to feel happy and healthy in the morning. It’s also likely that you will do better at school/work and find it easier to remember things!

INSIGHTS Building parent-school partnerships WORDS Malcolm Dix
Oh, so serious! When Malcolm Dix found himself taking life too quickly and too seriously, he decided to take a dose of his own medicine.
Everywhere I go I hear from parents that they are too busy, too stressed, and have too much to do and not enough time. Many social observers say parents seeing themselves as ‘time poor’ is at epidemic levels, a belief that is only compounded by technology that enables us to be connected 24/7. At one point I personally had to take some time to stop and honestly reflect upon my own life and that of my family. It didn’t take long for me to see that I too had become caught up in the ‘busyness’ of life. I knew that for the sake of my kids and my family, I had to make a change but it requires a day-in day-out conscious level of commitment – a commitment to practise joy, fun, patience, forgiveness, silliness, bad dancing and reflection. Currently I’m doing seven things to calm my life down and that of my family while trying to create more space for my children to simply enjoy their childhood. (Some of the following I’m sure you already do but it’s taken me a while to figure them out).
My strategies to slow down and not be so busy are as follows: 1 Eat together as a family at the
table at least four nights a week There has been more and more written about the importance of families eating together and the positive effect it has on children and adults alike. I have to say I’m enjoying it.
2 Avoid watching the nightly news
5 Exercise together
I’ve stopped watching the news and to my surprise the sky never collapsed as I had feared. I’m a much happier man not watching the oh-so-depressing’ news.
I exercise with my kids at least four times a week, usually at the local park kicking the footy, throwing a frisbee, running with our dog and so on. I have realised that the best way to get them all moving is by moving myself too.
3 Turn off the TV and sit
around an open fire I’ve constructed a simple fire pit in our innercity backyard and every second weekend my partner, the kids and I toast marshmallows, listen to funny songs, talk and look up at the stars. Who needs to go camping to enjoy the outdoors! My eldest boy (13 years old) is also learning to set a fire and his younger brothers are learning a lot about flames, hot coals and what happens to marshmallows when they are left in the fire for too long. Meanwhile my 16-year-old daughter will stare at the flames for an hour thinking about who knows what … but for me this is better than seeing her staring at social media or watching mindless television.
4 Dance together I’ve made the conscious decision to start dancing in the kitchen with my kids at least three times a week. I can’t dance to save myself, however I have three boys and if they are ever going to learn to dance and be comfortable with moving their bodies, I suddenly realized I have to lead the way. This parenting caper sure can be humiliating at times, but we wouldn’t have it any other way.
6 Explore nature together I’ve started spending more time in nature with my kids by taking them to the river, the hills, lakes, nature parks. I keep it local, with the occasional longer drive on weekends. I contacted my local council and found so many fun things to do as a family in my local area that I never knew existed … who would have thunk it!
7 Limit your own
social networking
I have severely reduced my time spent on social media such as Facebook, Twitter etc. My personality type could disappear into social media and never come back so I knew I had to significantly change my ways and, once again, it’s all about positive role modelling for my kids. So there you have it, my strategies for simplifying and calming my family life. As a result I’m happier, less stressed and far more ‘present’ for everyone which, in turn, is having a positive effect on my kids.
