Some of you will be familiar with the McKinsey Global Institute Report which estimates that over the coming decades 47% of total US employment is at high risk of computerisation. Closer to home, the Foundation for Young Australians reports (2015*) the following projections about the future of work in Australia:

• 40% of current jobs are at high risk of automation in the next 10 – 15 years
• 70% of young people will enter the job market in jobs that will be lost or automated
• 90% of future jobs will require digital literacy
• 50% will require advanced digital skills
• 75% of jobs will involve science, technology, engineering and maths
• An analysis of job advertisements between 2012 and 2015 showed that those jobs which involved problem solving, digital literacy and presentation skills are paying significant income premiums and employment in jobs involving digital literacy, critical thinking and creativity are growing rapidly
• With increasing flexible work and ‘portfolios’ of work activity, it has been suggested that a young person could make 17 changes in employers across 5 different careers in a lifetime and that individuals may also need to piece their income together from a range of sources at the same time.

It is a common view in education that ‘for us not just to survive but thrive, both individually and collectively in the world of the future, our young people need to be not only strong in literacy and numeracy and increasingly in science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) but, importantly, also to develop a ‘newer’ set of capabilities.’ (McIntosh, 2017, p.3)

Many writers, employing groups and social commentators propose what this new set of capabilities include. Suggestions are:

• Empathy
• Enterprise skills
• Positive Attitude
• Contribution
• Communication
• Team Work
• Collaboration
• Self-management
• Willingness to learn
• Creativity
• Resilience
• Problem-Solving
• Critical Thinking
• Character
• Global Understanding

‘The key capabilities that our young people will need are the ones that most uniquely make us human; that are hardest to replicate by automation or mechanisation; and which will enable our young people to grapple successfully with the big issues that will confront the society in which they live.’ (McIntosh, 2017, p.5)

Although the teaching and learning program of a school will have an impact on developing these competencies and capabilities, our extensive co-curricular program also has a huge role to play in this area. It is for this reason that in 2018, ̨ž³UUÖ±²¥’s will begin its development of ̨ž³UUÖ±²¥’s Plus, a student portfolio for all students ensuring that their co-curricular activities have the breadth and diversity of experience and opportunity to aid the development of these ‘newer’ capabilities. More information about ̨ž³UUÖ±²¥’s Plus will come out early next year as we begin to develop this program.

Sleep is so important; every living creature in the world needs sleep and our children are no different. It is the primary activity of the brain during early development, so all our students (both in Primary and in Secondary) need adequate sleep each night to allow neural pathways in our brain to develop and to allow optimal learning to take place.

Sleep is also necessary to achieve optimal mental health. In the Mindmatters literature there is a quote from Dr Alexandra Parker of the National Centre of Excellence in Youth Mental Health that emphasises the importance of simple lifestyle interventions. She says it is important to “Support young people in having some structure and routine, and remember the importance of sleep, diet and exercise. These have been shown to be modifiable risks factors for developing depression or developing anxiety disorders. They are influences which young people can change and have some control over.”

Here are some tips for our students to promote a good night’s sleep:

• Try to get up at about the same time each morning.
• Do physical activity during the day, preferably outside.
• If you're worrying about things during the night, set aside some time for problem-solving during the day.
• Avoid drinks that contain caffeine (e.g. tea, coffee or soft drinks) after 4pm as it’s a brain stimulant.
• Allow yourself time to wind down before going to bed. If you're working or studying, stop at least 30 minutes before bedtime. Try to relax before bed, avoiding phones, tablets and TV.

These, as always, are designed for all faiths and no faith. Prayer Spaces are open to all ages and many students from across the school will come during class time. The Chapel will be open for visitors during breaks as well.

Some of the Term 3 stations will include the themes ‘Being Still’, ‘Broken relationships’, ‘Leaving an impression’, ‘Worries/Fear’ and ‘Gratitude’. On Monday 28 August, the Year 12 girls will spend time as a cohort in the Chapel with an RVE Masterclass on stillness and silence, and personal reflection interspersed with a meditative practice to open hearts and minds.

I am playing with the idea of naming our ̨ž³UUÖ±²¥’s Prayer Spaces dadirri – for some indigenous Australians this term refers to “a quiet stilled awareness and recognition of the deep spring inside us all that makes for integration and wholeness” (G, Guiton, “What Love can Do”, 2016:Northcote). This awareness and listening is a form of ‘waiting’. This is dadirri. I believe that many students and staff have already found a deep place of peace and wholeness through their prayer spaces experiences. Each term’s prayer space seeks to share and simply provide invitation to all to come … sit … listen … feel “prayer”.

Reflection

In a few short weeks I will be blessed to wander the lands of Saints Patrick, Cuthbert, Aidan, Brigid, Francis and Clare (not to mention a few hundred more!) My prayer is that in my wandering, there may also be a deep sense of ‘wonder’ - many moments of awe and delight that enrich the soul! I frequently pray the following Celtic prayer and perhaps you, too, may find it ‘soul-food’;

Still me, Lord, as you stilled the storm

Calm me, Lord, keep me from harm.

Let all the tumult within me cease

Enfold me, Lord, in your peace.

With every blessing on you and your week ahead,

The Reverend Nicki Colledge 

We also hope that they develop the skill to be able to do this for themselves in the future. The following is information from the article which points out just how much we are all reliant on our phones.

Since Apple launched the iPhone in 2007, smartphones have saturated society. We use them to email, take photos, check social media, listen to music, surf the internet, find directions, watch moves and much more. Kevin Holesh built “Moment” to let people track their use, set daily limits and deter them from using their phone. With a tagline of, “Put your phone down and get back your life”, it has been downloaded 2.5 million times over the last two years. Among 18-34 year-olds, 96% use an iPhone, 46% are addicted to their phone and 79% check their devices as soon as they get up. One statistic estimates that the average person looks at their phone 221 times per day – an average of once every 4.3 minutes.

We see this in the Boarding House as the first thing the girls want in the morning before anything else is to get their phone. The pressure to be constantly available and responsive on social media can cause depression, anxiety and decrease sleep quality for teenagers, according to University of Glasgow researchers. As a Boarding community, we have a responsibility to try to educate our girls about these issues, to make them aware and with the support of parents, have the girls understand why we collect their phones and that having a fake phone is not helping them at all.

The articles also stressed the quality of social interaction is also suffering; research has found that the mere presence of a mobile phone in a room inhibits the development of interpersonal closeness and trust. Our phones remind us there’s a world beyond our immediate social sphere; that something somewhere, is happening without us. Checking your phone during a social encounter is the equivalent to talking to someone while looking over their shoulder to see who else is in the room. We check our phone automatically, without thinking. It pulls us out of the public sphere. It is an easy out if… you don’t want to engage. Even though we are physically present, our attachment to our phones means we are often mentally absent. It’s undermining our capacity to have meaningful conversations.

As a Boarding Community, we strive to help educate the girls on the use of their phones. Handing their phones in at night is one way, but, we also see the difficulty and emotion that this sometimes causes the girls. Only by working in partnership with parents will we be able to teach the girls how to manage their use, and then in turn, their time.

During Term 2 we spent some time introducing the girls to the CCEs (Common Curriculum Elements) which are the focus of the QCS (Queensland Core Skills) Tests in Term 3 of Year 12. While these skills are embedded in all their academic subjects we wanted to ensure that the girls were familiar with the language and the thinking articulated by the QCAA as being common to most disciplines offered in secondary school in Queensland.

This term we have devoted a significant amount of time unpacking the CCEs and focusing on several cognitions which feature prominently in QCS papers, namely identifying, analysing, justifying and explaining to others. This is the first stage of the School’s targeted QCS preparation program which runs from Term 3 Year 11 until Term 3 Year 12.

Next term, Year 11 students will be immersed in the mechanics of each of the papers and the strategies which can be employed to maximise success in them. They will begin the term focusing on the Writing Task and will then complete a trial test which will provide some base line data used to shape our Year 12 program in 2018. The girls will then have several sessions where they look at the Short Response Paper, followed by another mock exam. The final part of the Year 11 program involves a review of Multiple Choice method with a particular focus on the QCS papers and the completion of a practice paper. An individual student’s final QCS grade is determined by her performance on four papers: the Writing Task, the Short Response Test and two Multiple Choice papers.

The three practice papers completed by Year 11 students next term will allow us to identify the areas which we need to target in our Term 1 program next year. During Terms 1 and 2 in 2018, students will complete another two sets of practice papers. The preparation program is reviewed and refined based on the data provided by the trial tests.

This is an exciting time for the Year 11 girls as they anticipate their final year at school. It can also be a daunting time. It is important for the girls to remember that the rules for success are very simple – do the best you can do in each moment!

A positive attitude is exceptionally important for individuals of all ages, and it can be taught as well as reinforced by teachers, parents, and other authority figures in the student’s life. As your daughter develops her own identity it is our responsibility to help guide her decision-making processes.

Teaching young people to monitor their behaviour and to take responsibility enables them to think on their own and create effective decisions, rather than someone else doing their thinking for them. Respecting expectations and rules at home and at school means rejecting excuses and casting blame on others, students then start to take ownership for their actions.

Questions can be asked to lead young people to look within themselves and compare the way they are dealing with others, with the rules of wherever they are, and to decide whether the way they are handling themselves disrupts the rights of others within that setting. Working with young people. both at school and at home, to develop a responsible thinking process can help students to grow a sense of accountability for their own lives and to respect the lives of everyone around them.

Rather than over-reacting to the situation, simply apply the process of responsible thinking to help your daughter to think about the rules of your household or school. Such questions like; What were you doing? Who has been affected? How will others around you feel? What are the rules? What happens when you break the rules? Is this what you want to happen? Offer her a way to reflect on the situation. Students need to be able to walk in the other person’s shoes. Emotional intelligence is the key to both personal and professional success!

The questioning process also allows the adult to check their understanding of the situation and maintain mutual respect by encouraging your daughter to reflect on the consequences of disregarding the rules. Remember there is always two sides to every story. When dealing with situations here at school staff have a shared concern approach where we listen to both sides and assist with mediation.

The final questions, which can be used interchangeably, allow your daughter to look within herself - Is this the person she wants to be? Has she got a positive attitude? Is this the path she wants to take? Most importantly, we must remember everyone makes mistakes and it is our duty as adults to assist our students to learn good decision making techniques in their adolescent years.

Nikki Townsend 

I always respond by telling parents we are a school that offers a holistic education, as we are committed to providing learning experiences that cater for the cognitive, physical, spiritual, social and emotional development of each child. 

Each week, many learning experiences are offered to the girls which address each one or more of these developmental areas. This has been particularly evident in the past fortnight with NAPLAN results, Athletics Carnival and the conclusion of the Netball season. As I relayed a fortnight ago, two teams 11 A, Div 2 and Under 11, Div 4 played in the semi-finals, with 11 A, Div 2 team going on to play in the final on Saturday. The girls went into the game undefeated for the season and started confidently. As the game commenced, it became obvious that the girls were playing a very strong team, who went on to win the final. I was so impressed by the standard of play of both teams, but I was, of course, so proud of our girls. Each girl played her personal best, had the right mindset to believe the team could win until the final siren rang out. Each of the girls left the court with skills they will take into adulthood; resilience, determination and that challenge helps you grow. Congratulations girls!

As a cluster, the Prep to Year 2 students learn together regularly. Whilst there are academic gains attached to these experiences, the girls also develop their social skills as they work and learn together with students other than those in their year level. At the end of last month, the Prep - Year 2 students acknowledged National Tree Day and the importance of trees in their lives by planting a new jacaranda tree near the Sister’s Chapel behind the Pre-Prep room. After much deliberation, they named the tree Saint Fleur to represent ‘Saint’ being near the Sister’s Chapel and ‘Fleur’ which they learnt is the word for ‘flower’ from their French lessons.

This week, Prep – Year 2 celebrate National Science Week when the Churchie boys visit ̨ž³UUÖ±²¥’s and participate in science activities. National Science Week was also celebrated on Sunday when some Year 6 girls participated in a workshop on flying and coding of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (drones). These students applied mathematical techniques to gather data such as flight and climb speeds, and measure the geometry of an obstacle course. Computer coding, using JavaScript, was used to construct a program to control a drone using windows-based laptops. Thank you to Kelly Lewis and Kate Porter who attended the workshop and assisted the girls.

For the Year 3 - 6 students, their social and emotional needs will be specifically addressed when we offer an age appropriate Personal Growth and Sex Education Program. The program will be conducted by Judith Krause as an adjunct to our Personal Development Program during the week, 28 August - 8 September. Judith will also offer two parent information sessions; Years 4 - 6 on Tuesday 29 August at 6:30pm, and Prep – Year 3 on Thursday 31 August at 6:30pm.

Next week will conclude with a highlight of the Primary School calendar, the Arts Spectacular. This event is the culmination of cultural learning experiences with the Years 5 and 6 girls sharing their dramatic, artistic and musical talents. The girls’ ‘Escape to the Sea’ performances align with the upcoming Book Week theme ‘Escape to Everywhere’. Don’t forget to come and share a story, ‘Neverland’ with your child in the Atrium next week as part of our Book Week celebrations.

Late Pick Ups
As a school, your child’s safety is paramount and therefore we have procedures in place to keep them safe. Students will be supervised at the gate in Butler Street on Monday - Thursday until 3:40pm and Friday until 3:30pm. Students who are not picked up by this time will be escorted by a teacher to the office to check for messages. If no contact has been made by the nominated ‘pickup’ adult, the student will be checked in to Outside School Hours Care (OSHC). Parents will be charged at the full afternoon school care rate.

School Crossing Update
We are pleased to advise Maggie Pitman has commenced this week as our new School Crossing Supervisor. Maggie will now be operating the Butler Street school crossing both mornings and afternoons.
