St Margaret’s had a response rate of 61.9%% which was about 17% lower than 2017. However, the summary of findings below reflects the decisions made by 70 respondents out of 113 graduates and confirm the general trends which have been apparent at St Margaret’s over the last five years or so.

In 2018, 84.3% of young people who responded to the survey and completed Year 12 at St Margaret's Anglican Girls School in 2017 continued in some recognised form of education and training in the year after they left school. This compares favourably to the State who records 58.1% in this category.

The most common study destination was a bachelor’s degree (77.7%). The combined VET study and traineeship destinations accounted for 7.2% of respondents.

In addition to the above study destinations, a further 5.3% of respondents from St Margaret’s deferred a tertiary offer for 2018.

A further 14.3% transitioned directly into paid employment and no further study.

1.4% were not in education, employment or training.

These results are not dissimilar to those of previous years. The most popular universities for St Margaret’s graduates are The University of Queensland and Queensland University of Technology.

Parent Survey Reminder
We are into the second week of the release of our parent survey which would have been sent to you by MMG Education. We are hoping to have at least a 50 per cent response rate in order to canvas as many opinions as possible, and provide us with solid benchmarks (to compare against both future surveys we will conduct and benchmarking that MMG can provide us against other similar schools). Currently, 34 per cent of parents have responded, and I thank you if you have afforded us some of your time to complete this comprehensive survey.

As I have said previously, this survey (across Prep to Year 12) gives you the opportunity to express confidentially your views of the ways in which we meet your needs and those of your daughter/s. No parent will be identified to the school by MMG Education on the basis of questions asked or responses made, so you can be assured your responses are entirely confidential.

The survey will remain open until Sunday 16 September, so I urge you to please avail yourself of this opportunity to have your say.

Thank you in advance for your participation in this important project.

Race Day
Congratulations to the P and F for running a very successful Race Day last Saturday. Below is a note from the P and F President, David Lisle thanking everyone for their commitment and involvement in this wonderful fundraising event:

“The annual St Margaret’s Race Day was held on Saturday at Doomben Racecourse. The occasional shower couldn’t dampen the spirits of a fashionable and happy crowd of racegoers. The Race Day is the final, and largest, event on the P&F calendar for 2018. I am grateful for the opportunity to say ‘thank you’ to the many wonderful people who have been involved in the organisation of this successful event.

Thanks to Lynn Couchman-Frame and Angus Cameron for organising the Race Day Raffle. Angus also prepared the slide show, which ran on several screens in the marquee throughout the day, showcasing the sponsors and major donors, interspersed with pictures of various school activities.

Carolyn Hood and Louise Campbell, and their enthusiastic band of ladies and gents, gathered a huge number of prizes and vouchers for the highly popular Mystery Envelopes. Special mention here to Dimity McDouall for her generosity and enthusiasm.

Kate Peereboom was our liaison with the Brisbane Racing Club and coordinated the decorating of the marquee on Friday. The decorating team of Kate, Anthea Damman, Angela Pratt, Carolyn Hood, Vanessa Simpson and Shelly Deveraux did a great job.

Tom Reddacliff looked after our generous sponsors on the day.

The P&F Treasurer, Barry Roberts did much to ensure the financial success of the event.

We had ten Year 11 girls helping out at the track, ushering patrons to the marquee and selling raffle tickets and mystery envelopes. These girls conducted themselves in an exemplary fashion and were a credit to the school.

All the members of the P&F, and many others, contributed with innumerable jobs on the day and in the lead up to the event.

All of us in the P&F greatly appreciate Julie Gibbons and Lara Pickering in the Development Office for doing so much of the behind the scenes work.

And a final special mention goes to Anthea Damman. Her knowledge and experience have been invaluable. Anthea has worked tirelessly, and she has my eternal gratitude.”

We spend a lot of time with our students talking about setting goals. We use the language of learning goals, and we always talk about students reaching their potential.

It is really important for students to strive for their personal best (PB) in their learning and achievement. We often hear about ‘PBs’ when talking about sport, but this can also be applied to academics.

Many people assume that great sports people achieve success through talent alone, or that talent is what gets us those good results on our assessment. However, it is hard work and not talent that gains those results.

Focussing on gaining a PB in academics can maintain engagement and motivation, both in the classroom and outside it with homework and assessment.

Some thoughts for our students may be:

• In striving for a PB, the focus must be on the effort. Just like training for a sport to perform at an event or a race, focusing on effort can mean greater success on the assessment piece.
• Students can over or underestimate their ability at any given time. It is important to set reasonable goals that are not too hard or too easy and reflect the ultimate challenge.
• Students need to identify what skills they need to improve the most and take steps towards allocating time and energy to these skills.
• Students need to seek feedback on their progress. They can track this at school through Learning Analytics where they can access teacher comments and results.

Our theme will be ‘The Celebration of Colour’, through Spring, through Creation and through all that life offers! All are welcome.

September Holiday Camp for Years 7-9
The Anglican Church of Southern Queensland’s Ichthus camping program is incredible – take a look at the website: .

In the second week of the September school holidays, anyone in Years 7-9 are invited to come along for 5 days of fun activities and challenge. A number of St Margaret’s students have attended Ichthus over the years and always return to school with a fresh outlook on God, the Church and life in general. September is for Years 7-9, January camp is for Years 4-7 and July camp is for Years 10-12.

Contact Ichthus directly, or Rev Nicki on Phone: 3862 0716 or Email: ncolledge@stmargarets.qld.edu.au for more information.

Reflection

Even though the day be laden
And my task dreary
And my strength small,
A song keeps singing
In my heart.
Creator God, I know that I am Yours,
I am part of YOU, just as I am part of Creation itself.
All of me, my wearies and troubles,
My joys and delights,
Rest in Your hand.
Amen

 With every blessing on you and your week ahead,
The Reverend Canon Nicki Colledge 

It’s always difficult for anyone to leave a school community as one wishes to see each year level go through to Year 12. It is the personal growth witnessed daily which makes this job so rewarding. To the current Year 12s, I wish them every success through their final weeks and life beyond St Margaret’s. To every boarder, I will be thinking of you and will be keen to hear about your achievements over the years. As I depart at the end of this term, I look forward to remaining informed of the many and varied journeys of those I have connected with. St Margaret’s girls are in the very best of hands and I too have been most fortunate to have worked here.

 “Reflect upon your present blessings of which everyone has many.”

At St Margaret’s, the girls completing Year 12 in 2018 and 2019 selected from two academic pathways: the OP or Selection Rank pathway. Both pathways provide students with a result for tertiary entrance. Students seeking tertiary entrance by obtaining an OP must study 20 semester units of Authority subjects, including at least three subjects for four semesters each, and sit the QCS Test. Students who aren’t eligible for an OP but wish to gain entry to tertiary courses will receive a selection rank based on the completion of their Diploma, AQF Certificate III, music, dance, or speech and drama.

When the students apply for tertiary entrance, beside each course name are two numbers, separated by a comma, e.g. (17,63). The first number is the minimum Overall Position (OP) for Queensland Year 12 students. The second number is the minimum QTAC selection rank for all other applicants. Of course, students must also choose courses that meet the subject prerequisites for their tertiary preferences.

This milestone provides a timely reminder of the various pathways our girls can access to be able to apply for tertiary entrance. This term, the Years 10, 11 and 12 girls have engaged in a variety of different conversations about academic pathways for different reasons. The Year 10s have been considering their pathway options for subject selection, the Year 11s have reflected on their Semester 1 results to consider any changes to their pathway selection and the Year 12s have been discussing career pathways with the Career’s Counsellor. These are significant milestones for all girls; however, the multiple pathway options show that are many ways you can access tertiary studies.

Student options don’t end at this point, because once students enter university and receive their first GPA (Grade Point Average) based on their subject results, this new score can enable them to change courses and universities. So, while we will continue to work with you to encourage your daughters to achieve to their best, it is not the single defining moment of their life. The pathways available to your daughters, now and post-school, will continue to enable flexible choice and change if they have the determination to reach their goal.

You may also be aware that the Queensland Government is conducting a review of NAPLAN. As a school we have been asked to pass on the following information to assist with data collection for this review.

NAPLAN Student Survey
This survey will enable students to have their say on NAPLAN. It will be completed by students at home, with the consent of both parents/carers and students. Parents/carers can assist students as needed.

Important information is that the student survey is to be completed by students from Year 3 to Year 10 only. The survey will be open until 14 September. Please click here (PDF 95.7KB) for more information regarding the project. The survey link is: .

Student involvement will be critical to ensuring a better understanding of the impacts of NAPLAN on teaching and learning in Queensland.

Supervised Study Sessions
This is the last week for Supervised Study Sessions for Term 3. Supervised Study Sessions will resume again on Monday 15 October. Remember to book in to ensure your places for Term 3. To book, parents will need to log into Flexischools and select ‘Supervised Study Sessions’. Bookings are limited to 25 participants each night and when a session is full no more bookings can be made. Bookings are essential and should be made in advance to ensure a place is available. If dinner is required, payment must be paid at the time of booking and this option selected in Flexischools.

Parties are an important part of the life of a teenager, whether this be hosting or attending a party. Whilst teenagers are usually excited by the prospect of a forthcoming party, parents on the other hand can feel stressed and anxious.

So, why have parties?

• They are fun and a chance to spend time with current friends and make new friends.
• They are an opportunity for parents to see their children growing up and socialising.
• They provide an environment for the family to meet their child’s friends.
• They may be celebrations of milestones in growing up.

Some suggestions of what to do if your teenager is invited to a party:

• Speak to the parents hosting the party to make sure they will be at home and there will be adequate adult supervision. Most parents expect this to happen. Your daughter, on the other hand, will tell you that nobody does it and you are so embarrassing. This is not true.
• Ask the parents hosting the party if alcohol will be consumed and decide if your teenager will attend. Sometimes, as parents, we have to make unpopular decisions in the short term, but in the long term they are for our child’s protection. They may insist that you don’t trust them and, as adults, you may need to wear this.
• Pick up and deliver your teenager with some of their friends. Teenagers can be nervous about going to a party and having a friend/friends can give them support.
• Sometimes despite planning unexpected things can happen. Try and prepare your teenager by discussing what they would do if the party finished early or they were offered drugs or alcohol. This may include helping your teen resist peer pressure by giving them some techniques on how to say “NO” to drugs and alcohol. You should also discuss the effects of these substances. Teach them to recognise the tell-tale signs indicating that it is time to leave the party.

Year 7 Showcase
A gentle breeze … stunning blue skies … an idyllic location …. afternoon tea … the perfect setting for the Year 7 Showcase! The Year 7 girls were delighted to share their learning with their parents and grandparents as they welcomed them into their classrooms.

This student-led event saw the girls confidently host over 100 guests as they viewed displays and participated in interactive activities together. Activities such as Kahoots, calligraphy writing, and hands-on Science activities prompted much excitement, while student performances, language conversations and gymnastics routines were enjoyed by captive audiences.

Displays of student work created a kaleidoscope of colour throughout the Precinct. There really was quite a buzz in Toorak! The friendly atmosphere was enhanced by our student comperes, the Form captains who met parents as they arrived and by the Boarders who brought their ‘home’ to the Precinct. The girls’ willingness to share their skills and talents, while demonstrating care and respect toward others, exemplifies emerging young women who are a delight to work with. Thank you to all those who contributed to the success of this event!

As a school we are very committed to child safety and protection and we had a particular emphasis because of this special week. The girls in Years 4, 5 and 6 participated last week and this week in our personal growth and sex education program with renowned expert, Mrs Judith Krause. Each of the classes in these year levels participate in lessons which are sequential and age appropriate. The program addresses a range of physical and emotional changes the girls will experience as they grow into young women. Judith had some very strong messages for the girls about the relevance of relationships with your own self and others.

Judith also presents a group talk to students in Prep to Year 3. The focus of this session is personal safety and body awareness which is an important aspect of the Daniel Morecombe Child Safety Curriculum.

The key elements of this program are Recognise, React and Report. When children recognise that they are in an unsafe situation, we encourage them to think about what they could do to be safe again. They are encouraged to think about ways to react using real-life scenarios. Our students will also learn that breaking the rules (e.g. saying no to an adult who is behaving inappropriately) is sometimes necessary so that they can become safe again. Report means telling an adult in your life who cares about your safety when there is a problem. It’s adults who can keep you safe from harm and who can make a situation safe again for you.

Please take the time to talk with your children about what they have been learning about safety and, in particular, the ways they could react if they are unsafe to make themselves safe again. Talking with your child about ways to stay safe will help them to develop life-long safety skills.

The Australian Government has established the Office of the Children’s eSafety Commissioner - an independent statutory office created by the Enhancing Online Safety for Children Act 2015. This new Act provides a safety net for children who have been victims of cyberbullying. The Office is aimed at enhancing online safety for Australian children. The website has extensive information and eSafety resources for parents. You are encouraged to visit the website .

As an eSmart school we teach smart, safe and responsible use of information and communications technology as part of the school culture. Children from Prep-Year 6 are taught how to be safe online and how to cope with cyberbullying if it should ever arise.

All girls in the Primary school have been hard at work during their Pastoral Care lessons learning about cyber safety. The girls’ work and cyber safety messages are on display at Hamilton Library and in the Atrium for this week. Be sure to read the girls’ messages while you are in the Atrium.

Parent Survey
I would like to firstly reiterate to our Primary parents the importance to the school of you completing the survey those parents in Prep to Year 6 would have received by MMG Education. The survey is the opportunity for you to express confidentially your views of the ways in which we meet your needs and those of your daughter/s. Your responses will assist the St Margaret’s School Council and Senior Leadership Team to review the School’s operations and plans for the future. Please avail yourself of this opportunity to have your say. The survey will remain open until this Sunday 16 September.

Student Congratulations
Congratulations to Amira Ryan (Year 11) who performed last week with Camerata – Queensland’s Chamber Orchestra. 52 Strings was a community engagement project bringing together Camerata with local talented string students and educators to create a mass ensemble of 52 strings. Musicians were invited to play in a rare live performance of Penderecki’s 1960 Threnody to the Victims of Hiroshima. This evocative work brings to life the terrifying sounds of war. The full orchestra finished the concert with the most glorious and well-loved works of the string orchestra, Vaughan-Williams’ Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis. The concert also featured Camerata performing some of their greatest hits and two recently commissioned works by talented Brisbane composers. Congratulations to Amira on her involvement in this performance!

Music Support Group
The next Music Support Group meeting will be held on 23 October at 5pm in the Primary Music Room (second floor of Chaseley). Parents from both the Primary and Secondary Schools are welcome to attend. Please also note that the Music Support Group Annual General Meeting will be held on Tuesday 27 November at 5pm in the Primary Music Room.

Athletics
The Athletics season has been progressing well with the squad having participated in 5 competition meets at the University of Queensland Athletics Centre. To achieve our goal of improving our 2017 performance, we are appealing to parents to ensure their daughters maintain their training over the last week of term and throughout the September holidays.

One of the major factors that leads to a successful Athletics program is the annual Athletics Camp. All squad members are invited to attend the camp from Thursday 20 to Saturday 22 September to enhance fitness and techniques. Places are still available to any interested squad members and I encourage all girls to attend. Please contact Mr Tom Smithers at: tsmithers@stmargarets.qld.edu.au for further details.

Met North Athletics
St Margaret’s fielded a successful track and field team at the regional trials, resulting in ten athletes being selected in the Met North Track and Field team. The girls selected were Samantha Cooper, Lara Crouch, Bella Donaldson, Chloe Fenwicke, Gabrielle Geldard, Isabella Harte, Ciana Jamieson, Maicey Lynch, Tyla Proctor and Tayden Tomich.

The Club Netball season has come to an end after another successful year. We had a record number of 176 girls playing for St Margret’s club from 8 Years to 18 Years. Many of our teams are now playing in the top divisions in their age groups with four teams making the semi-finals, two teams contesting Grand Finals with the 12 Years team (Team 11) winning outright. Thank you to all coaches, managers and supporters for the tireless work that they do to make it a truly valuable experience for our players. Special thanks to Head of Netball, Gayle Coutts whose hard work and dedication to St Margaret’s Netball has ensured netball at St Margaret’s will continue to fly upwards.
