Prayer a Lenten PracticePrayer enables us to realise the connection we have with all our

humanity The poet John Donne reminded us ldquono man is an islandrdquo We need to pray for each other Praying for the needs of our world is an act of solidarity and love Often we think of prayer as a reaching

out to God It is more like reaching in Prayer is coming to awareness that God is with us God dwells within We often pray that our world might be transformed But it is we who are transformed by prayer

So for example not only do we ask for ldquopeacerdquo in our world our prayer enables us to become people who have the power to go out

and build peace ourselves at least in our own part of the world so

when and where have I been praying this Lent

Safe Travel

As part of our ongoing pastoral care of students I provide regular

reminders about the importance of road safety and the need for students to

be responsible and careful when they are travelling to and from school With

the school holidays approaching and at the suggestion of local police I am

taking this opportunity to provide another reminder The following guidelines

should be observed by students at all times whether they are travelling for

school or for some other purpose

bull Students should cross roads at designated crossings where they are

available and follow the rules of the crossing

bull Students should cross roads at safe locations if there is no crossing

available They should avoid crossing at busy intersections near the crests

of hills and on blind corners

bull Students should cross all roads in a careful and sensible manner at all

times They should avoid crossing in large groups and should not run

between cars that are stopped at an intersection

bull Students should follow all rules and regulations of the transport mode

(train bus bicycle walking) that they are using

I ask that you have a conversation with your childchildren reminding them

of the necessity of making sensible choices while travelling so that we can

minimise the dangers to their wellbeing

Q What is the best holiday that you have been on Why was it so goodKaren All holidays are great but our family holiday to the USA and Canada in December and January was outstanding The opportunity to see some childhood dreams of our own fulfilled in going to Disneyland and Universal while experiencing this with our daughters was amazing Merging my love of history with the opportunity to see the Getty Villa Alcatraz and Pearl Harbour alongside seeing some of the most breathtaking places of Lake Louise Banff and Hawaii However the part that made this trip so fantastic was doing this with my husband and daughters Invaluable family bonding time

Q What is your favourite way to spend your spare timeKaren Watching movies with my family

Q What are the top three things on your bucket listKaren Travelling is the main thing on my bucket list - so seeing Paris London and Germany

Q What is the best dish that you can cookKaren The family favourite is chicken pesto pasta

Q What is your favourite concert WhyKaren Neil Diamond in the Hunter Valley because I have wanted to see him in concert since I was 16 years old He is just a legend

Q Who is your favourite author WhyKaren At the moment it is Kate Quinn She writes historical novels that have enough history blended with imagination

Q If you could change one thing in the world what would it beKaren Peoplersquos hatred of others

Q If you could go back in time what event would you visitKaren As a history teacher there are too many from which to choose however I think I would like to see the eruption of Mount Vesuvius

Q Describe what happened with your most epic failKaren My most epic fail was at Lake Louise on Christmas Day when I was practising skiing on the training slopes I was trying to show my daughter how to ski (ha ha) and was coming down a very gentle easy slope but could not manage the pizza stance to slow down In horror I could see the group of children at the base and could not even manage to swerve I stacked into one young girl sending her toppling like a ten pin There were legs skis and poles everywhere while my already nervous daughter looked on in horror as her mother wiped out the kids ski group in one awkward move

Q If you had a motto for life what would it beKaren You only have one life make the most of it

CYBERBULLYING TIPS

Help for young people at Kidshelpline

Help for parents and carers mdash what to do if its your child

bull Take the time to talk to them Be open to listening and understanding their experience of cyberbullying

bull Teach them that cyberbullying is never OK

bull Reassure them that theyre loved

bull Report the activity to the relevant social media platform If this does not help you can lodge a complaint

via the safety website eSafety

bull Support them to speak to another trusted adult or counsellor if they want to

bull Advise them to avoid opening emails or responding to cyberbullies

bull Respect that they may not want to limit online access as this can seem like a punishment and lead to

greater social isolation

bull Most importantly reassure them they are not alone and that help is always available

Click on this link to view an important story on social media featured on the ABC


1 Aim for your children to have a healthy media diet in the 3 key areasbull Moderate amount (1-2 hours per day recreational screen use)bull Content (less of the violentanti-socialdiscriminatory media more pro-social and educational media more active games)bull Remember you know more about content even if your child knows more about playing the gamesbull Age-appropriateness especially for children under 8

2 Keep video games (on any device) out of the bedroom bull This will usually help to lessen the amount of use and moderate the type of use

3 Aim for more physical activity time than sitting screen time bull This isnrsquot easy but in an ideal world parents would be creating lots of fun opportunities each day for activity this can include

replacing sedentary e-games with active e-games but should also include more real-world activity than e-based activity

4 When playing video games have an active break after 30 minutes bull This minimises prolonged sitting and sustained close-vision effects and helps to switch to other activity

5 Encourage a good safe playing technique That is a technique that bull Avoids poor postures bull Avoids repetitive movementsbull Ensures sufficient space for active e-games

6 Know what games your children are playing and monitor their game use bull In a recent study increased parental monitoring of screen use was associated with reductions in screen time violent media

exposure aggressive behaviour and BMI and increases in hours of sleep pro-social behaviour and school performance

7 Set and enforce rules around use bull This may include time quotas (eg maximum 2 hours per day of entertainment media averaged across the week) and

content restrictions

8 Model appropriate screen use and participation in real world activities bull Children copy their parents so modelling healthy screen use is crucialbull Children are more likely to be active if their parents are In Canada programs that replaced screen time with family time

were met with initial resistance by kids but after 6 months or so family members came to prefer family time

9 Have a screen-free time before bedtime bull Sleep professionals recommend 2 hours because the effect of screens with blue light interferes with sleep hormonesbull The closer the screen the greater the interruption to sleep

10 Be actively involved in your childrsquos game play bull This is especially important if games frighten kids depict violent or anti-social behaviour or upset kids in other ways It is ideal

to have a parent nearby to put video game content into context andor to help calm kidsteens if neededbull Co-playing games can be helpful but to be beneficial the parent should be actively communicating with the child during play

10 tips for healthy game play Prof Leon Straker amp Dr Wayne Warburton

Newman Selective Program | Mrs Stephanie McVey (Newman Facilitator)

THE DIFFERENTIATED NEWMAN CLASSROOM

Could most other students of this age do it Should we expect most other students of this age to be able to do it

Would most other students of this age want to do it

The questions above developed by the gifted educationalist Harry Passow are what guide the Newman teachers

when deciding the learning experiences within the Newman classroom These activities are often taught at a faster

pace are more challenging and complex and require higher order thinking than the learning that occurs in the

mainstream classes Activities are differentiated not only between classes but also within the Newman class so that

students are able to work at their own pace and ability level In addition to this the Newman students are asked to

challenge themselves and to go beyond the minimum expectation

This linked document provides an outline of the type of work that has been part of the learning

experience in Newman classrooms in Term 1 The emphasis is always on challenging the student

linking class content to authentic real life experiences and experts increasing the complexity

and conceptual nature of the learning and minimising repetition

The Newman students are to be congratulated for their achievements the way in which they

rise to the challenges presented in the classroom and the value they place upon learning and

achieving their best


Year 10 Religion Refugee Challenge

On Thursday 28 March Year 10 Banksia travelled to St Patrickrsquos College in Sutherland to take part in the Refugee Challenge a project of the Gymea Community Aid Organisation The challenge simulated what life is like for refugees beginning in a refugee camp and ending at a detention centre Having been separated into family groups and holding our conceptual belongings we began learning of the plight of refugees Firstly each family group had to construct a shelter out of cardboard plastic and string Small amounts of tape could be lsquoboughtrsquo by trading in one of our five conceptual belongings The ease at which our shelters fell down after being shaken by the community workers was very sobering Following this we rotated around the various stations of the challenge experiencing the difficulties facing refugees around the world among them lack of schooling poor sanitation and limited food Many were aghast at the quality of the water that refugees would drink After this we all had to crowd in a small room to simulate a boat ride as one that refugees would take In order to get on the boat all of us had to give up at least one of our conceptual belongings many boarded the boat with nothing It was here that we heard the chilling story of a man

who had been a refugee and now lives in Australia Finally we all proceeded to the stage of the hall There we read the stories of the 12 people who have died in detention centres in Australia The simulation was completed here with the community workers playing the part of the Australian Border Force All in all the trip was a very important experience and we left the challenge very informed and aware of the plight of refugees

Nicholas Osiowy


The final homophone focus for term 1 is your and yoursquore

Your is a possessive adjective that sits before another word (usually a noun or a pronoun) to show that it belongs to you For example

You need to walk your dog every day

(Your is before the noun dog and the dog belongs to you)

Yoursquore is a contraction of you are

For example

Yoursquore expected to arrive on time

(You are expected to arrive on time)

Quick check Substitute you are into the sentence If it still makes sense use yoursquore If it does not make sense use your

For example

You said that you couldnt believe your ears (You are ears does not make sense Use your)

Take the photo when youre ready (You are ready makes sense Use yoursquore)

This year once again the Year 11 EEC class has been spending

our last 2 double lessons over at the Primary School assisting

the Kindergarten Year 1 and Year 2 classes with their morning

literacy block This experience has proven extremely valuable

as the class has been able to apply their theoretical learning

to this hands-on practical experience The class was involved

with activities such as

bull reading supervision

bull rocket card checking

bull various other literacy games such as bingo and matching

bull making words and letters out of play dough

bull story writing

bull spelling

The EEC students have been allocated to the same class

and teacher for the entire process which will continue into Term 2 This will allow the Primary school students to

develop a sense of familiarity and bond with their helper students over the weeks The Primary School teachers are

very appreciative of having the extra assistance each fortnight and we are very grateful to them and Mrs Cindric

for supporting this worthwhile initiative

WOW what a talented team After a convincing win in game 1 against OLMC (11-0) Bosco went head to head with Aquinas College The entire game was so exciting yet nail biting from the sideline We entered extra time at 4-4 and unfortunately the golden goal was scored by Aquinas with 30 seconds remaining Aquinas went on to win the grand final with a 3-0 win over Freeman College

I am so proud of how the girls conducted themselves throughout the day - never giving up great sportsmanship and team work The skill level of womens football at Bosco is outstanding and exciting to see what the future holds for us The competition is for Years 7-9 and for sizestrength reasons is usually made up of the older students though we had six Year 7s who held their own exceptionally well Great effort to all girls in the team and special thanks to Jini Bell for coming along as a senior student to help motivate the girls and keep them focused Lets get them next year Coach Ledgerwoood

Safe Travel

As part of our ongoing pastoral care of students I provide regular

reminders about the importance of road safety and the need for students to

be responsible and careful when they are travelling to and from school With

the school holidays approaching and at the suggestion of local police I am

taking this opportunity to provide another reminder The following guidelines

should be observed by students at all times whether they are travelling for

school or for some other purpose

bull Students should cross roads at designated crossings where they are

available and follow the rules of the crossing

bull Students should cross roads at safe locations if there is no crossing

available They should avoid crossing at busy intersections near the crests

of hills and on blind corners

bull Students should cross all roads in a careful and sensible manner at all

times They should avoid crossing in large groups and should not run

between cars that are stopped at an intersection

bull Students should follow all rules and regulations of the transport mode

(train bus bicycle walking) that they are using

I ask that you have a conversation with your childchildren reminding them

of the necessity of making sensible choices while travelling so that we can

minimise the dangers to their wellbeing
