    Message from the Headmaster

    This week I have been reading a short ebook about marketing. The author states that a school's brand is not the advertising message that the school tries to promote, nor is it the logo, colours, crest, motto or creed of a school. While each of these aspects helps to communicate the brand, they are not the brand. A school's brand, says this author, is made up of the beliefs and expectations of the customers; in our case, that would be the students and families who are part of our Wollondilly family.

    My interactions with families through emails (mostly), and the occasional phone call or Zoom meetings, leads me to believe that our brand is made up of the following expectations;

    • A caring community in which students and staff demonstrate respect and care for one another; teachers that genuinely care for each student and recognise that they are more than just an academic result.
    • A commitment to giving our best, being our best and expecting the best of each other; a place where students and staff both recognise the importance of high expectations.
    • A commitment to God's Word as an accurate and true guide to life, relationships, work and purpose; we are able to love because God first loved us.

    I hope that these expectations align with your view of the Wollondilly 'brand'. I certainly agree with each of these and will continue to support our staff as we strive to live out our brand more and more each day.

    Galatians 6:9 And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.

    Staffing Announcement

    Thank you to Mr Ben Leffley who has served our College community since 2015. Mr Leffley has informed us that he will complete his time at the College at the end of this Term. We are thankful for his valuable contribution to our College as a Mathematics Teacher, Christian Studies Teacher, Year Patron and Acting Mathematics Coordinator. We pray that God will continue to use him in his service as he moves on to new ventures next Term.

    College Headmaster

    Year 12 Merits and Awards 

    I am excited that Year 12 students will be able to continue receiving Merits and awards in Term 4. Normally the cut off for Year 12 would be the end of Term 3. Teachers are looking for opportunities to award Academic Achievement, Academic Effort and Academic Engagement merits. Teachers are recording these and they will contribute to GREEN, WHITE and BLACK awards. Awards will be presented to students at the Graduation Assembly.

    Well Done Years 11 and 12

    I would like to congratulate both Year 11 and Year 12 on the way they have managed the changed format of exams over the last few weeks. The substitute tasks that were completed have given teachers useful data to help determine final rank orders in Year 12 and RoSA grades in Year 11. Assessment Marks (Year 12) and RoSA grades (Year 11) will be submitted to NESA in the coming weeks. 

    As tasks are returned I encourage students to listen carefully to the feedback from teachers and consider how this can be applied moving forward.

    Term 4 Assessments in Years 7-10

    Teachers will be continuing to assess students in a variety of ways in Term 4. It is important to remember that Grades are awarded based on students' formal and informal assessments along with the professional judgement of teachers. I encourage students to continue working diligently in the last week of this term and throughout Term 4. Teachers will continue to modify assessment activities to suit the Off-Campus environment. While there will not be examinations for students in Years 7 and 8, students in Years 9 and 10 will complete substitute tasks for some subjects during class time in Weeks 4 and 5 next term. Teachers will communicate the details of these tasks to students early Term 4.

    I have been very impressed with the manner in which most students have navigated the challenges of Off-Campus Learning. This environment certainly requires self regulation and an ability to work independently. 

    Year 11 into Year 12 Course Changes 

    I will be talking to our incoming Year 12 students in Week 1 of Term 4 about different patterns of study for the HSC. Students will not be able to drop a subject until after Week 2 of Term 4. It is important that students make informed choices about the best pattern of study for the HSC. Mr Croger will share a google form that will need to be completed before a subject can be dropped. There will need to be evidence of correspondence between the teacher and the Teaching and Learning Coordinator 7-12 before subject changes will be approved.

    Learning Packs and Home Readers T-6

    Primary teachers are preparing new learning packs ready for parents to pick up in Week 1 of Term 4. These packs will include Home Readers for Years K-2. They will also include, work booklets that will supplement online learning in Term 4. They can be picked up from the College Auditorium from 6-8 October between the hours of 9.00 am -10.00 am and 2.00 pm – 3.30 pm. Parents who would like to pick up from St Jude's in Bowral will need to email Mrs Justine Colombo: j.colombo@wac.nsw.edu.au so times can be arranged. 

    Returning Home Readers – next week
    It would be very helpful if parents in Years K-2 could return Home Readers that they currently have. A returns box will be set up near Student Reception for parents to drive through and drop them in. This box will be available from Monday, 13 September until Wednesday, 15 September. 

    When picking up your learning packs in Week 1 next Term, could parents please return materials previously distributed.

    Pastoral Matters T-12

    What is your life's purpose?

    An area of our College Educational Framework that we see as central to the development of a Wollondilly Anglican College student and our staff is being Purpose Driven. According to the bible, our purpose is to be inspired by a vision as to how God can use us in accomplishing his purposes. The College wants to encourage all students and parents to understand that God has a purpose for your life and that through developing a relationship with him, this purpose can be revealed. The College also recognises that purpose is valuable for providing direction and for connectedness with others. As such the following information unpacks how Being Driven can support people's wellbeing to thrive.

    BE DRIVEN is igniting the fuel or ‘igniting the fire’, to drive your vehicle, in essence YOU, in fulfilment of your vision, mission and legacy. BE DRIVEN is about designing your life…identifying what your life is about and/or what your business is about, and having a clear image of what that outcome looks like, in order to develop effective strategies and take steps towards its achievement, ultimately leaving a positive legacy. An individual who is driven is clear on their role, their priorities and decisions to execute plans to fulfil that legacy, activating BE SIGNIFICANT, BE RESILIENT, BE PROACTIVE and BE CONNECTED to ensure achievement of the outcome they desire.

    • Igniting the fire that keeps you moving.
    • Understanding and designing your life purpose and perspective.
    • Clarity on your role and priorities.

    BE DRIVEN – prioritising and executing your mission and legacy.

    Everything in this universe has a purpose. The sun gives earth warmth and energy to flourish plants, animals and life. Plants and animals are reliant on each other as a source of fuel to survive. Humans rely on technological development to keep us healthy, connected, educated, and able to enjoy all that life has to offer, through tangible and intangible means, and so on. One thing does not exist or function well without the other. Everything has a purpose! What is your life purpose?

    Identifying and planning your life purpose, adjusting your life perspective and igniting the 'drive' within you is an empowering and energising activity. Developing the elements of BE DRIVEN within yourself gives you purpose and direction for decisions, actions and achieving goals. These elements are key factors of mental strength and cultivating positive mental health.

    Living Your Best Lockdown Life

    I have titled this article after its source inspiration from an article from Glen Gerreyn (link below). I wanted to share some encouragement and considerations as we near the end of Term 3 and head into the holidays soon -  while still facing the unfortunate scenario of being locked down.

    We aren’t always in charge of our lives, now more than ever - but what we can control is our perception and how we respond to the situation we’re in. It sounds cliché, but our perceptions are powerful and finding a positive perspective is key to staying mentally healthy. To quote Gerreyn: “Within psychology, the term coping is defined as what people do to diminish stress and discomfort. Athletes understand that when the pressure to perform is great, the function of their muscles is to perform, and the function of their mind is to cope. And the only way to become good at coping with discomforts is to experience them.”

    Below are 20 helpful strategies for coping with stress during lockdown and at other difficult times in your life:

    1. Positive Self-Talk Have a Laugh
    2. Physical Activity 
    3. Connecting with Others 
    4. Acceptance 
    5. Seek Professional Help
    6. Meditation
    7. Brainstorm Solutions 
    8. Colouring In 
    9. Clean or Organise your Environment 
    10. Serve Someone in Need
    11. Make a Gratitude List 
    12. Visualisation 
    13. Deep/Slow Breathing 
    14. Distraction 
    15. Getting a Good Night’s Sleep 
    16. Go Outside
    17. Listen to Music
    18. Ask for a Hug (Covid safe of course)
    19. Eat a Healthy Meal

    As we continue to battle with the difficulties of lockdown and consider the approaching holidays, I would like to encourage each one of us to consider how we can take care of ourselves during this challenging time and also consider how we can reach out to others in our community and proactively think about the ways that we might be able to show love and care towards them. Personally, I think that one of the greatest joys that we can have is when we bring joy to another. To this end, I would like to leave you with these three verses which have been of great encouragement and guidance to me during this season:

    Proverbs 3:27 - "Don't withhold good from someone who deserves it, when it is in your power to do so."

    Proverbs 11:25 - "Generous persons will prosper; those who refresh others will themselves be refreshed."

    Philippians 2:4 - "Instead of each person watching out for their own good, watch out for what is better for others."

    Church Services

    Staying connected in the Wollondilly Shire

    During this time, it is important that we stay connected as a community. Due to the restrictions in the Wollondilly Shire, this cannot happen face-to-face. However, many churches in our local area still gather together online. For those within our community who have a faith, can I encourage you to keep meeting as a community of believers as it says in Hebrews 10:24-25 “And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.”

    To those in the College community, we encourage you to consider attending a Church Service or Bible Study Group online. In these difficult times, you may be feeling isolated, burdened and even fearful. Because of this, we encourage you, even more, to connect to your local Church, to explore Christianity, to seek the peace and relief that Jesus can give you. It says in Matthew 11:28-30 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” There is no better time to seek and to come into relationship with Jesus than now. Below are some local Churches in the Wollondilly Shire and surrounds with their services and programs and contact information for any enquiries.

    Most importantly, we encourage all to meet with God directly and personally through daily reading of The Bible and prayer. This is the best way to get to know who God is and further trust in him during this time. If you don’t have a Bible or don't know where to start, we encourage you to download “You Version” on your device, this is a great resource to assist you in your journey and relationship with God.

    WAC Kids Care

    From time to time, families undergo trauma such as severe or terminal illness. There are short term support structures in place at the College to assist families during these times.

    We have a collection of beautifully prepared meals that are ready for distribution for any families in need.

    The WAC Kids Care Program offers support to families in the way of meals. Please contact Mrs Hay or Mrs Rockwell at the College. Confidentiality will be respected. If you know of anyone who may need meals at this time, please contact the College office.
