As we transition into the beautiful late Autumn, early Spring weather, I wanted to take a moment to share a personal highlight from my weekly routine—riding my bike (actually  my son's e-bike) to school once a week. What started as a practical choice has become one of the most enjoyable parts of my week, and it's something I encourage more of our school community to consider.

Riding to school isn’t just good for our health and the environment—it sets a positive tone for the day. The fresh air and physical activity help me arrive energized and clear-headed, ready to support our students and staff. And I'm not alone. Many of our teachers and support staff also ride their bikes to school regularly. We’re proud to model this healthy and sustainable behavior for our students, and we’ve noticed that more and more students and families are joining us! We have recently added two more bike rack pods to facilitate this growing trend.

Safety First

Of course, safety is always our top priority. Whether you're on a traditional bike or an e-bike, here are a few important safety reminders we share with our riders:

• Always wear a properly fitted helmet. It’s the simplest and most effective way to protect yourself.
• Follow the rules of the road. Ride on the left side, signal your turns, and be aware of your surroundings.
• Be visible. Bright clothing and bike lights—especially during early morning rides—go a long way.
• Use safe routes. Stick to bike lanes and paths whenever possible. We’re happy to help students and families identify safe routes to school.
• Walk your bike from gate to rack. Once on school grounds, walking bikes helps keep everyone safe during the busy arrival and dismissal times.

A Culture of Active Commuting

It’s been heartening to see our school community embrace active transportation. Each staff member who rides is not only improving their own well-being but also showing students that movement matters. We believe that our habits as adults influence our students more than we know. Riding to school is one small way we can show what it means to live responsibly, care for the planet, and prioritize our health.

If your child is interested in biking to school but you have questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We’d love to support more students in joining this growing group of confident, safe riders.

DOMINICAN HISTORY AND SPIRITUALITY

San Clemente Catholic College is blessed to be the beneficiary of a wonderful founding Dominican charism or spirituality. The following is from our school records:

“San Clemente was founded by the Dominican Order of nuns in 1917 in a building in Kerr Street, Mayfield. In 1919 following the purchase of property formerly known as "Redcliff", "a stately home in spacious grounds", the school was moved to its present site and continued as a secondary school for young ladies under the administration of the sisters of St. Dominic. 

During the sixty years from 1917 San Clemente High School, as both a boarding school and day school, became well known for the ladylike behaviour of its students and for the high standard of achievement of its graduates in both civic and business affairs.

At various times the buildings were modified and extended to accommodate the growing school population.

In 1976 San Clemente High School became the first Catholic High School in the Maitland Diocese to be staffed entirely by lay people.

Another milestone in San Clemente's history was reached in 1983 when boys were enrolled in Year 7”. The next transition for our school is a move to a comprehensive Year 7 to 12 school with our first Year 11 cohort commencing next year … 2026!

But what is this Dominican charism (spirituality)?

The hallmark of Dominican charism (spirituality) is preaching, a point that is made obvious to us in the fact that St Dominic founded the Order of Preachers (OP) in the 13^th century. The order celebrated its 800^th anniversary in 2017.

St Dominic based everything he did towards authentically imitating Christ. Our college motto ‘VERITAS (Truth) is a continuation of this.  He knew in his own age, which was characterised by false teachings and heresy, that only a well-educated person who lives humbly, charitably, and uprightly could best transmit the life of Christ to the world.

Integral to this Dominican spirituality is what is referred to as the Four Pillars: Prayer; Study; Community; Service. Therefore, the placement of prayer first in his life, his poverty and austerity, his insistence on study and a thorough education, his emphasis on community life and service all have a purpose: everything that a Dominican does must prepare his soul for preaching well the truth of Christ to the world.

We will look at each of these ‘pillars’ and how we attempt to live these out at San Clemente Catholic College in subsequent newsletters.

Sacramental Program Invitation

As we move further into Term 3, it is timely to reaffirm our shared expectations around behaviour, uniform, and punctuality. These expectations are central to creating a positive learning environment and ensuring that all students are prepared to achieve their best.

• Behaviour in Class

We ask that all students continue to demonstrate respect for permanent teachers, casual staff, themselves and each other. This includes being attentive during lessons, following instructions promptly, and contributing positively to classroom discussions. Disruptions impact not only themselves but also the learning of others, so our focus remains on encouraging students to be responsible, respectful, and engaged learners.

• Uniform

Wearing our college uniform – both academic and sports - with pride is an important part of belonging to our community. I would like to remind families to ensure students are wearing the correct attire each day, including approved footwear, jumpers, and accessories in line with the College’s uniform policy. The uniform is a symbol of respect for our school community and represents the values we uphold together.

• Punctuality

Arriving on time to school and to every class sets students up for success. Punctuality fosters discipline, minimises interruptions, and models respect for the learning environment. I would like to encourage ALL students to organise themselves each evening, so they are prepared for the day ahead, arriving promptly and ready to engage in their learning.

Here are some practical and supportive tips families could explore with their young people to help improve behaviour, uniform, and punctuality:

1. Behaviour

• Set clear expectations at home – talk openly about what respectful behaviour looks like at school, with peers, and at home.
• Model positive behaviour – students often mirror what they see. Families showing patience, respect, and kindness helps reinforce these values.
• Encourage responsibility – let students take ownership of their actions and talk through mistakes as learning opportunities.
• Celebrate good choices – acknowledge when your child demonstrates positive behaviour, no matter how small.

Uniform

• Prepare the night before – have the uniform (including shoes and accessories) ready to avoid the morning rush.
• Check uniform regularly – ensure items are clean, neat, and replaced if worn out or missing. A brief note from home explaining any out of uniform items is appreciated as well
• Involve students in upkeep – encourage them to iron, polish shoes, or pack their sports gear this promotes responsibility.
• Highlight the purpose – remind students that wearing the uniform with pride shows respect for themselves, their peers, and their college community.

Punctuality

• Establish a routine – set consistent bedtimes and wake-up times, including on weekends, to avoid late mornings.
• Use time reminders – alarms or phone alerts can help keep students on track for departure times
• Pack bags early – schoolbags, homework, devices, and uniforms should be ready the night before.
• Value being on time – frame punctuality as a life skill that shows respect for teachers, classmates, and future workplaces.

A final word on the importance of being prepared;

“One important key to success is self-confidence. An important key to self-confidence is preparation.”

Families, as always, should you wish to discuss an issue concerning your child please do not hesitate to call The Office on 40147300 or email me directly - mitch.allan@mn.catholic.edu.au

“Nearly all people can stand adversity, but if you want to test a peron's character, give them power”

Abraham Lincoln

In Year 8, our students are learning every day that they hold great power in the choices they make. Power over how they learn, how they treat others, and how they respond to challenges. This power is not about control or dominance, but about choosing to be their best selves in both their education and their relationships. 

This idea of power became very evident to me when watching a recent episode of Spotlight- Face to Face with my Children’s Killer. It told the story of Danny Abdullah who chose to forgive the driver responsible for the tragic accident that took the lives of his three children. His act of forgiveness was an extraordinary example of true strength, character and his power to lean into a positive future. He had the power to remain in anger and bitterness towards the man responsible for changing his life, however he chose to put his power into forgiveness. Forgiveness is not easy, but it has the power to build healing, peace, and stronger relationships. It shows us that character is not only tested in hardship but in how we use our power to respond to others, with kindness, mercy, and respect. One key takeaway from the inspiring story for me was that Danny Abdullah said, “Forgiveness is a selfish act that you do for yourself to move on.” This means that forgiveness is not just about giving another person another chance it is also about removing bitterness and resentment affecting our own lives.  

For our Year 8 students, the lesson is clear: every day they have the power to make choices that reflect their character. This might mean committing to doing their best in classwork and assessments, even when the work is challenging. It also means treating peers and teachers with politeness and respect, building a classroom and school community where everyone feels safe and valued. Just as forgiveness can heal deep wounds, the simple, yet powerful choice to be kind, respectful, and understanding can strengthen the friendships and connections our students build at school. 

 Year 8 Shout Outs:  

• Congratulations to several Year 8 students who competed at the Diocesan Athletics Carnival.  
• Bravo to Alex Tang, Ezra Hoscke and Alex Hatherall who participated in Battle of the Bands.  
• Congratulations to Brody Brooks, Lucas Moore and Taylor Peers who all received Silver Awards.

Any questions or queries please feel free to email me on Meredith.macdonald@mn.catholic.edu.au or call on 40147300.

Warm regards

Meredith MacDonald Year 8 Leader of Wellbeing and Engagement 

This year has flown so quickly and the timid, somewhat anxious group of young people whom I welcomed on a very hot day in January are blossoming into adolescents. The far majority of Year 7 are wearing their uniform with pride at all times. Parents please assist the school in ensuring your son or daughter is wearing the correct uniform for school. If parents are experiencing any “battles” please do not hesitate to contact myself for any assistance. I also mentioned at our recent assembly that having a mobile phone is a privilege in high school, and in having that privilege comes responsibility. Phones are not to be used in school hours and are to be kept in student's bags at all times.

Teenagers and sleep -Promote the benefits of good sleep

Emphasis to your teenager the importance of sleep. It has proven advantages for memory and performance. A minimum of eight to nine hours’ good sleep on school nights is recommended for teens.

Exercise for better sleep

It's official – regular exercise helps you sleep more soundly, as well as improving your general health. Teenagers should be aiming for at least 60 minutes every day, including activities such as fast walking and running.

Cut out the Caffeine beat Insomnia

Suggest that your teenager drinks less caffeine (contained in drinks such as cola, energy drinks, tea and coffee). Too much caffeine stops them falling asleep and prevents deep sleep.

Don't Binge before Bedtime

Let teenagers know that eating too much or too little close to bedtime may prevent sleep, due to an overfull or empty stomach. This can be a cause of discomfort throughout the night

Bedtime Routines are a great sleep aid

Encourage your teenager to have a bedtime routine. Doing the same things in the same order an hour or two before slumber time can help them drift off to sleep.

Use these bedtime routine tips that are guaranteed to send your teenager to sleep.

Is the bedroom sleep-friendly?

Ensure they have a good sleeping environment – ideally a room that is dark, cool, quiet, safe and comfortable. It might be worth investing in thicker curtains or a blackout blind to help insulate against the light of summertime early mornings (and late evenings).

Limit Screens in the Bedrooom

If possible, don't have a mobile, tablet, TV or computer in the bedroom, as the light from the screen interferes with sleep. A music system is preferable. 

Get a Comfy Bed

Ensure teens have a comfortable bed or mattress. If it's time to get a new one, encourage them to choose it.

Spotlight on Joseph Butterworth

Congratulations to our latest winner of the TAS (Technological and Applied Studies) student of the month competition. Sam consistently demonstrates a positive attitude and strong initiative in all areas of Food Technology, and is always willing to offer help and support to both classmates and staff. Well done to Samuel.

Upcoming Assessment Tasks – Stage 5 Food Technology

A reminder below of the following assessment practical tasks that are occurring for Stage 5 Food Technology between weeks 6 and 9. Students will be required to supply ingredients for the associated tasks and submit accompanying theory work. Should any student have trouble acquiring their own ingredients, they are encouraged to speak to their class teacher for assistance prior to the assessment date.

Stage 5 Technology Subject Happenings

Stage 5 Technology students have been busy engaging in a range of exciting, project-based learning experiences across their subjects. Industrial Technology students are developing practical skills, with Metalwork classes creating camping tables and Timber classes constructing bedside tables.

In Design and Technology, Year 10 students are undertaking an Interior Design project, while Year 9 students are showcasing their creativity by designing and making their own hoodies. Multimedia students are also putting their imagination to work, developing original stories to produce short stop-motion animated films and designing 3D games using the industry-standard program Unity.

One of the highlights of the year is fast approaching – the Year 10 Food Technology novelty cake assessment. This much-anticipated task always impresses us, as students demonstrate outstanding creativity and skill through their imaginative cake designs and decoration.

Pillars Café

Pillars Café continues to operate every morning on Week A Tuesday and Thursday, and Thursday Week B mornings before school. Thank you to all our Year 10 Baristas and valued staff and student customers who continue to support Pillars through the purchase of food and drink items.

DIOCESAN  ATHLETICS

On August 20^th 60 of our SCCC students proudly represented the school at the Diocesan Athletics Carnival held at Glendale Sports Centre. It was a fantastic day of competition, with students showing great participation, teamwork, and school spirit across all events. While rain had been predicted, the weather held off, allowing the day to run smoothly and creating perfect conditions for strong performances on the track and field.

Several of our athletes have qualified for NSW CCC Athletics Championships to be held in September at the Sydney International Athletics Centre in Homebush. We wish all our talented athletes (pictured below) the best of luck in their events.

A special shout out to Georgia Clarke (Yr 7) who broke the Diocesan record for Girls 13 years Discus with an amazing throw of 30.93 m – Well Done Georgia!

Congratulations to all competitors for their commitment and effort on the day and a special thanks goes to Mr Byrne, Mr Foxall, Ms Hayley Amm, and our Interns Miss Kalos, Miss Cresswell and Mr Horsfield who assisted and worked tirelessly throughout the day to ensure everything ran smoothly.

DIO BASKETBALL - BOYS

On Wednesday the 26th of September, both our Year 7/8 and Year 9/10 boys’ teams travelled to Broadmeadow Basketball Stadium to compete in the Diocesan Basketball Gala Day. It was a fantastic opportunity for our students to represent the school, showcase their skills, and compete against other schools from across the Diocese.

Junior Boys Basketball
Our Year 7/8 boys began their campaign against All Saints College in what proved to be a very tough opening game. Despite showing determination and effort throughout, the boys unfortunately went down to a strong opposition. They bounced back with great resilience in their second game, defeating St Paul’s Booragul, in an exciting and hard-fought contest. Their final pool game was against St Francis Xavier’s College, where they gave their absolute best but were beaten by another talented side.

Senior Boys Basketball

Our Year 9/10 boys did the school proud at the Basketball Gala Day, showing great teamwork and sportsmanship. They started the day against a strong Catherine Mc Auley side, setting the tone with a competitive opener.

A narrow loss to All Saints Maitland in their next game meant they finished second in their pool, lining up against top-seeded St Joseph’s Lochinvar. In a passionate clash, the boys held their nerve to claim a hard-fought 4-point win. Meeting Lochinvar again in the semi-final, the scores were locked at halftime, but a few late three-pointers saw them edge ahead. Despite our boys’ grit and defensive pressure, Lochinvar took the game by 5 points.

Both teams should be commended for their effort, pride, and the way they represented the school both on and off the court. Thank you to our amazing coaches Mr Foxall and Mr Fletcher.

SPORTING SHOUTOUT- Joseph Butterworth (Year 7) recently competed in the Australian National Championships for Jujitsu where he placed 2nd earning himself the Silver Medal. He fought incredibly well and thoroughly earned his spot on the podium. Congratulations on this amazing result Joseph, SCCC is proud of you!

It has been a dynamic and inspiring Term 3 in English at San Clemente Catholic College, with students across all year groups engaging in rich learning experiences that blend literature, creativity and real-world connections.

Our Year 10 students have been immersed in Shakespeare’s Macbeth, exploring the timeless theme of good versus evil. Their study has been greatly enhanced the live production of Macbeth performed by Bell Shakespeare last term, giving them the opportunity to see Shakespeare’s words and ideas brought to life on stage. The experience directly supported their preparation for their analytical essays, as they reflect on the moral struggles and ambition of Shakespeare’s tragic characters.

In addition, we were proud to see several of our Year 10 students give back to the community by adjudicating at St Columban’s Primary School’s public speaking competition illustrating a wonderful example of leadership and service in action.

Meanwhile, Year 9 students have been engaging with another of Shakespeare’s masterpieces, Romeo and Juliet. Their focus has been on analysing conflict within the play and understanding how these struggles reflect timeless human experiences. This study has challenged them to see how Shakespeare’s values and themes remain just as relevant for audiences today as they were in Elizabethan times.

Our Year 8 students have taken a creative path into Shakespeare through the graphic novel adaptation of Much Ado About Nothing. This accessible and engaging version has provided them with an introduction to Shakespeare’s humour, wit and exploration of relationships. Building on this, students have been working collaboratively to create podcasts on Shakespeare and his works, showcasing their understanding in a modern and innovative way.

Year 7 students have embarked on an exciting cross-curricular project with HSIE, centred on the theme of water sustainability. As part of this unit, they will visit Blackbutt Reserve, and learn about environmental preservation and the importance of water conservation. Their studies will culminate in the creation of podcasts exploring key sustainability issues. This unit has been an outstanding example of the benefits of cross-curricular learning, as students see how English connects meaningfully with other subjects to deepen their understanding of real-world challenges.

Finally, earlier this term our Year 7 and Year 8 students were treated to a truly unforgettable experience with award-winning slam poet, author, and activist Solli Raphael. At just 12 years old, Solli became the youngest-ever winner of the Australian Poetry Slam at the Sydney Opera House and now, as a young adult, he continues to inspire audiences around the country with his powerful words and passion for creating change. His slam poetry sparked deep reflection and discussion among our students and, hopefully, inspired them to find their voice and use it powerfully.

It has been a remarkable term of learning, creativity, and inspiration in English and we look forward to seeing how our students continue to grow as thinkers, creators, and communicators in Term 4.

Greetings San Clemente Community,

Beyond the Gates is an inclusive program that aims to support students and their families who may require additional or more versatile support services. The program has a flexible eligibility criterion, meaning referrals are made and prioritised in partnership between the school wellbeing team and Beyond the Gates staff member. Student and family engagement in our program is entirely voluntary. The service is provided by the school to recognise and address developmental and life challenges that can sometimes create barriers to student wellbeing and achievement.

This program can address issues impacting on students’ achieving their full potential, including areas such as school attendance, family difficulties, trauma, anxiety, mental and physical ill-health, and any other struggles that impact wellbeing. The program works alongside the schools’ wellbeing, learning support, and counselling teams to support families in need through case management or case coordination.

Through case management, a support plan is developed in collaboration with the students and their families that work towards desired goals. As part of the process, the caseworker liaises with the school and other agencies or supports involved, aiming to bridge the gap between the school and families to ensure holistic and consistent support is provided.

News from Alinta Uniforms

As part of Alinta’s annual review, the team has considered the latest CPI data and broader economic changes, including a 3.5% increase to the minimum wage and higher superannuation contributions. Encouragingly, CPI has eased to 2.4%, helping to offset some of these pressures.

Behind the scenes, significant effort has gone into negotiating with suppliers to minimise the impact on families. Thanks to these efforts, pricing will remain unchanged for most items. Only a small number of products will see a modest adjustment from 15 September 2025. 

The following items will be adjusted as follows:

• Sport Shorts - $1

• Girls Pants - $2
