Acve Teaching for Acve Learners Our current College Strategic Plan acknowledges the journey from an environment of ‘Acve Learning #inCollaboraon’, to focus on ‘Acve Teaching for Acve Learners’. We now acknowledge that our students are much more social in the way they learn. They acvely seek to collaborate with one another, both within the school context and beyond. Acve learning is now pursued in a collaborave seng. Our challenge, as educators at Marcellin College, is to cater for this social learning style in an enthusiasc, dynamic and innovave fashion; we need to be acve teachers for acve learners. The College connues to be commied to the professional development of all teaching staff. This year, guided by our Strategic Plan, and in consultaon with College middle leaders, we established a definion of the ‘expert teacher’. This model will provide the basis for establishing further goals and aspiring to an ‘Acve Teaching for Acve Learners’ model. One phrase from the definion that sums up beaufully the ‘expert teacher’ and ‘acve teaching’ is that the ‘expert teacher’ seeks to be “visibly present to students in the classroom, moving around, seeking relaonship and nocing learning behaviours”. Over the coming weeks our teaching staff will review their goals from 2017 and set their minds to seng new goals and benchmarks for 2018. New focal points will be set and plans will be formalised such that we’ll be ready to deliver another year of quality teaching and learning from Day One in 2018.

We lsquotimetabledrsquo 382 classes across 11 Key Learning Areas (KLA) representing 2185 lessons over a 2 week cycle delivered by 68 amazingly dedicated teachers assisted by 13 support staff A mammoth task which was the culmination of months of planning
Class PlacementAn important part of our review and planning for 2018 has been our extensive review of the Class Placement structure for our Year 7-10 groups
After a series of meetings involving the College Executive representatives from our Wellbeing Diverse Learning and KLA teams as well as our Sydney Catholic Schools Leader of Learning a revised Homeroom structure will be implemented from 2018

From the Deputy Headmaster
Many times in the last few weeks I have been asked if ldquothings are winding downrdquo now at school In truth the complete opposite happens at this time of year The reporting process is in full swing so that in the next week or so parents will receive highly constructive and accurate feedback on your sonrsquos academic progress At the same time an enormous amount of planning is well underway for next year Class placements are reviewed subject and teacher allocations are now finalised and a timetable for the new school year is nearing completion
Similarly the Year Coordinators spent last Wednesday reviewing and refining their pastoral programs and completing a very thorough handover of their year group to the designated Year Coordinator for 2018 As I observed this process taking place I was reminded of the incredible level of commitment and the great degree of collective wisdom that is in this group of teachers I came away from the day very confident and extremely proud of a pastoral team that knows the strengths and needs of the boys under their care

The Collegersquos production of lsquoThe Shrewrsquo wrapped last Wednesday 23 November and over three days more than one thousand parents friends special guests and students saw Year 9 student Sebastian Hodgersquos brilliant adaptation of Shakespearersquos lsquoThe Taming of The Shrewrsquo I am so proud of the boys involved and acknowledge that this production would not have been possible without the support of the staff and College Executive Never have I ever been so humbled by such a collective effort The students in particular are multifaceted accepting twice exceptional talented young actors creative designers musos and tech geniuses Sebastian himself built upon the legacy of Shakespearersquos classic and valued the opportunity to adapt a timeless classic into a controversial performance that engages with contemporary issues lsquoThe Shrewrsquo presented an engaging response to modern social issues such as the corruption of love for the desire of wealth and contemporary relationship styles
The process itself has been a year in the making Sebastian once approached by Ms Dove and I undertook research
College Drama Production - The Shrew
watching diverse plays at Sydney Theatre Company and The Seymour Centre for inspiration before choosing to adapt Shakespearersquos lsquoThe Taming of The Shrewrsquo This writing process itself involved journaling ideas and working closely with Mr Rice and myself on the script and then transforming the ideas to the stage in the rehearsal space to test out what meshed well Other talented students such as fellow Year 9 student Carl La Hood assisted with logging video diaries and editing a promotional video to assist with getting the production process showcased and effectively promoted
The cast and crew were involved in a rigorous series of workshops and auditions leading into the rehearsal process Students were trained on how to design the lighting system and Edward Ambrogio (Year 9) was a mastermind behind the scenes in this process and should be acknowledged for his outstanding efforts Noah Jugow (Year 9) designed the stylish and detailed program booklet while other students helped source costumes props and trained in how to use the sound system and control transitions Everyone worked together as one strong entity
This production was also a collaboration with the Music department and I wish to acknowledge Class of 2017 graduate Paul Escorrido for returning to school after finishing Year 12 to feature as a vocal soloist in the production Other expert teachers such as Ms Caitrina Moran assisted in directing and was such a wonderful support for the boys

Sebastian himself said ldquoItrsquos been amazing to have the support of the entire community in diving into this task with no script writing experience This escapade has certainly reinforced my holistic understanding of theatre and is something I will cherish as I grow into adulthoodrdquo
Observing and this eclectic group of students and teachers has been significantly rewarding as a teacher I will cherish this experience for the remainder of my teaching life

Year 10 Reflection Day
Guest Presenter - Mr Chris DoyleYear 10 were privileged to watch the amazing Chris Doyle in action on Tuesday 28 November Chris mixed humour life lessons and music into an informative experience He pushed boys out of their comfort zones by getting some to walk the catwalk and others to sing and dance in front of the entire year group all while teaching us some of the most important life lessons through witty and interesting analogies
Above Jesse Pollock (left) Reni Maitua and Ben Higgs sharing life experiences with Year 10
The Rise Foundation talks to Year 10
On Tuesday 21 November The RISE Foundationrsquos founder Ben Higgs along with fellow MCR Old Boys Reni Maitua and Jesse Pollock visited the College to speak with the Year 10 cohort on coping with mental illness and how to support others suffering with depression
All three guest speakers shared their own personal stories of the struggles they have faced in their lives and how they coped with finding their feet after falling The message to the Year 10 students focused on the strength in picking oneself up and then moving forward That depression and mental health issues do not discriminate - whether you are an elite sportsperson or a high school student everyone can experience depression and feel overwhelmed by the pressures of life That reaching out for help is a good thing and not a sign of weakness
We learnt that life doesnrsquot have to be about the negatives but more so about the positives and the experiences they bring with them Thank you Chris for teaching us to embrace and tolerate everyone as they are and to have a laugh with them to create long-lasting deep and meaningful relationships with those around us and to value lifersquos beauty
Hugh Doosey - Year 10
As Ben said ldquoIn life everyone makes mistakes Itrsquos part of life and it happens to everyone The difference is what you make of it what you learn and what you do after This is the part that will define us There is no shame in needing a hand when we are down There is no shame in asking for a hand Accepting that you need help and asking for it is the brave part Giving someone a hand is just as braverdquo
The College would like to thank Ben Reni and Jesse from The Rise Foundation for taking the time to come and talk with the boys More information can be found on their website wwwtherisefoundationnet

The Marcellin College Blue team could have been considered as a development squad and unfortunately lost all three of their games exiting the competition at the group stage Despite defeat the boys in the team enjoyed their day of Aussie Rules
The more experienced Marcellin College White team fared much better beating Thomas Hassall Anglican College 51 (31) to 31 (19) and Wollongong High School of the Performing Arts 52 (32) to 00 (0) Unfortunately a 22 (14) to 62 (38) defeat to eventual champions Keira High School meant the boys missed out on a place in semi-finals by percentage

On Tuesday 21 November The RISE Foundationrsquos founder Ben Higgs along with fellow MCR Old Boys Reni Maitua and Jesse Pollock visited the College to speak with the Year 10 cohort on coping with mental illness and how to support others suffering with depression
All three guest speakers shared their own personal stories of the struggles they have faced in their lives and how they coped with finding their feet after falling The message to the Year 10 students focused on the strength in picking oneself up and then moving forward That depression and mental health issues do not discriminate - whether you are an elite sportsperson or a high school student everyone can experience depression and feel overwhelmed by the pressures of life That reaching out for help is a good thing and not a sign of weakness
We learnt that life doesnrsquot have to be about the negatives but more so about the positives and the experiences they bring with them Thank you Chris for teaching us to embrace and tolerate everyone as they are and to have a laugh with them to create long-lasting deep and meaningful relationships with those around us and to value lifersquos beauty
Hugh Doosey - Year 10
As Ben said ldquoIn life everyone makes mistakes Itrsquos part of life and it happens to everyone The difference is what you make of it what you learn and what you do after This is the part that will define us There is no shame in needing a hand when we are down There is no shame in asking for a hand Accepting that you need help and asking for it is the brave part Giving someone a hand is just as braverdquo
The College would like to thank Ben Reni and Jesse from The Rise Foundation for taking the time to come and talk with the boys More information can be found on their website wwwtherisefoundationnet

The Rise Foundation talks to Year 10
On Tuesday 21 November The RISE Foundationrsquos founder Ben Higgs along with fellow MCR Old Boys Reni Maitua and Jesse Pollock visited the College to speak with the Year 10 cohort on coping with mental illness and how to support others suffering with depression
All three guest speakers shared their own personal stories of the struggles they have faced in their lives and how they coped with finding their feet after falling The message to the Year 10 students focused on the strength in picking oneself up and then moving forward That depression and mental health issues do not discriminate - whether you are an elite sportsperson or a high school student everyone can experience depression and feel overwhelmed by the pressures of life That reaching out for help is a good thing and not a sign of weakness
We learnt that life doesnrsquot have to be about the negatives but more so about the positives and the experiences they bring with them Thank you Chris for teaching us to embrace and tolerate everyone as they are and to have a laugh with them to create long-lasting deep and meaningful relationships with those around us and to value lifersquos beauty
Hugh Doosey - Year 10
As Ben said ldquoIn life everyone makes mistakes Itrsquos part of life and it happens to everyone The difference is what you make of it what you learn and what you do after This is the part that will define us There is no shame in needing a hand when we are down There is no shame in asking for a hand Accepting that you need help and asking for it is the brave part Giving someone a hand is just as braverdquo
The College would like to thank Ben Reni and Jesse from The Rise Foundation for taking the time to come and talk with the boys More information can be found on their website wwwtherisefoundationnet

All three guest speakers shared their own personal stories of the struggles they have faced in their lives and how they coped with finding their feet after falling The message to the Year 10 students focused on the strength in picking oneself up and then moving forward That depression and mental health issues do not discriminate - whether you are an elite sportsperson or a high school student everyone can experience depression and feel overwhelmed by the pressures of life That reaching out for help is a good thing and not a sign of weakness
We learnt that life doesnrsquot have to be about the negatives but more so about the positives and the experiences they bring with them Thank you Chris for teaching us to embrace and tolerate everyone as they are and to have a laugh with them to create long-lasting deep and meaningful relationships with those around us and to value lifersquos beauty
