Respectful Relationships at the Heart

As we look forward to celebrating International Women’s Day it is a great opportunity to reinforce the message of the importance of respectful relationships. Whether in our families, friendship groups, community groups or workplaces, respectful relationships are at the heart of people and groups being able to flourish. Schools are workplaces with the purpose of learning. Staff, students and parents flourish where there are respectful relationships. Within the school context, young people are learning how to engage respectfully with peers, family, community groups, and in the world of work. Much of this is caught by young people as they listen to and watch interactions. Different perspectives and ways of thinking strengthen families, friendship groups and workplaces including schools. Learning how to respectfully engage in dialogue where different perspectives are brought to the table is an important life skill and an essential element for growth and improvement.

At the heart of respectful relationships is how we see ourselves, other people and the world we live in. At Pacific, we see each person as a special interdependent part of God’s creation, each uniquely gifted to make a difference and each with a common responsibility to care for ourselves, other people and the environment. Jesus gave us the command to love one another, and to love our neighbour as ourselves. In Genesis, God instructs us to care for all of His creation. As we approach Easter, we are reminded that God comes to us and loves us despite our brokenness and encourages us to share that same love, grace and hope with all we encounter.

Principal's Log

Respect for the human dignity of all people is a core value at Pacific. Having respectful relationships means we are able to sit with each other, listen and come to a better way forward, which can often be a third way. Pausing to consider how each interaction can lead to a better relationship is often the key to being heard well and good outcomes being achieved together. The College’s Restorative Approach to working through issues where relationships have broken down or poor choices have been made has at its heart, this focus on the innate human dignity of all people and the importance of respectful relationships. Having the habit of thinking respectfully and being respectful in all our relationships is an important way of being. Our natural inclination is to focus on our needs and wants rather than pausing and seeking to understand the values, perspective and needs of the people we encounter. The Fifth habit within Steven Covey’s book, the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, is to Seek First to Understand and then to be Understood. This age-old wisdom is also echoed in the peace prayer of St Francis of Assisi.

In a busy time of term, it is important that young people are encouraged to engage with assessment as opportunities for learning what they currently understand and what they are yet to understand. Having a focus on improvement occuring one step at a time and celebrating each small step forward can also assist young people to engage purposefully with draft feedback and preparation for tests. Taking the long view that each day we are learning new skills, dispositions and knowledge for life helps to keep the focus on learning and improvement rather than judgment.

All Year 3, 5, 7 and 9 students will be engaging in NAPLAN online from Wednesday 13th March – Monday 18th March. Students have engaged in practice sessions and parents are encouraged to read the article later in the newsletter to ensure students bring the correct equipment to every session.

We look forward to celebrating International Women’s Day together tomorrow and pray that God would assist us to be people who respect the innate dignity of all people in our thoughts, words and actions.

Clean Up Australia Day: A Lesson from Luke 17:11-19

In the biblical narrative of Luke 17:11-19, we encounter a powerful story of gratitude and responsibility. Ten lepers, healed by Jesus, experienced a miraculous transformation in their lives. However, only one returned to express gratitude for this life-changing act. This serves as a poignant reminder of the significance of acknowledging blessings and taking responsibility for the positive changes in our lives.

On Monday 4th March, students across Prep – Year 12 signed up and participated in Clean Up Australia Day. This collective effort exemplifies gratitude for the beauty of our surroundings and a responsibility to care for the world we inhabit. Our students have the power to set an example for each other by making conscientious choices to keep their areas clean every day.

The message extends beyond a single day of cleaning up, with students encouraged to go one step further by challenging themselves to create a waste free lunch. Waste free lunches benefit the environment by reducing packaging waste, which in turn reduces energy and promotes sustainability awareness among students, parents and staff. 

When reflecting on Luke 17:11-19, it is evident that gratitude should propel us into a continuous lifestyle of positive actions. Just as the leper's gratitude wasn't confined to a fleeting moment, our commitment to a cleaner environment should be an ongoing, daily practice.

Living honestly about our contribution to litter and waste involves recognising that our actions impact the world around us. If we aspire to be grateful stewards of the environment, we must extend our responsibility beyond designated clean up days.

Let us draw inspiration from the leper who returned to express gratitude, and let our actions speak louder than words. By embracing a lifestyle of daily responsibility and honesty, we can create a lasting impact on our environment and inspire others to do the same.

Teddy Bear’s Picnic: Year 12 and 2 Student Buddies

On Wednesday 6th March, Year 12 and Year 2 students participated in the highly anticipated Teddy Bear’s Picnic, where Year 12 students were able to relive childhood memories by bringing in their cherished teddy bears and share their personal stories with their Year 2 buddy. 

Students went on a ‘bear hunt’, ate tinny teddies together on picnic rugs, laughed and played chase and handball together. Our Senior students facilitated conversations, shared personal memories and listened to the many stories told by the Year 2 students. It is a wonderful Pacific tradition of connection and celebrating community

The Year 12 and Year 2 students are already looking forward to connecting in Week 10 for an Easter activity.

I Think I Can

One of Pacific Way’s statements surrounds the notion of self-belief. In many ways, we are continually developing capacity and resilience in the way we view ourselves. This is not always easily done. Neuroplasticity is in an exciting space and more is being learnt about our ability to rewire our thinking and increase our resilience.

Renowned cognitive scientist, Nathan Wallis, asks us to view our brain as a garden. When we try something for the first time, we are developing a neural pathway through that garden. One that requires ongoing maintenance and cultivating. These pathways flourish when we are happy and settled and when cortisol is flowing, or scientifically when our frontal cortex is engaged and when our brain stem is quiet. Hereafter, they are reinforced by the message we send each other. Language plays a crucial role in the messages that are received by others, and interestingly, the story we tell ourselves.

Self-belief can be built by self-talk but not self-thought. Our brains are overloaded by thought but can be directed by out loud positive affirmations. Alternatively, these pathways can be eroded by negative talk from others and ourselves. The simple use of “yet” at the end of a sentence can have a significant impact on “under-construction” pathways in the brain.

As parents, choosing situations and scenarios that promote self-belief allows for your children to be exposed to challenges that may not be entirely smooth, to begin with. A balanced mix of risk and resilience allows young people to exhibit their competencies through considered experiences. By encouraging routines such as carrying their own school bag, organising personal resources, or making their own bed, you are sending them a strong signal that we believe in you. In turn you are helping them believe in themselves. This is a disposition that flows into their learning, relationships and connections.

Pacific as a Peace Place

If you open one of our Junior College diaries, the first few pages will have an explanation of the College logo. One explanation is the College's deep connection with the ocean we are so blessed to live on, the Pacific. When Magellan named the ocean centuries ago, it was directly translated as "calm". After being at sea for so long, he was relieved to be in such calm and navigable waters.

The connection between the ocean and the College may not be immediately obvious, but upon closer inspection, there are many similarities. Both have a huge variety. Oceans and schools are constantly changing, and both can become unpredictable and unfamiliar. In recognition of the upcoming Pacific Day of Peace, we recognise the role we all play in making the College a place of peace and tranquility. In our assemblies, we continually discuss what characterizes a caring community, which in turn creates peace.

As we know, anything worth appreciating is the sum of its parts. It requires support, admitting our mistakes, and especially honesty and courage. It requires forgiveness, empathy, and understanding that we don't always get it right the first time. It requires confidence, determination and teamwork. But most importantly, creating a place of peace requires a shared understanding that we are all small pieces of the puzzle. Together with our thoughts, actions and words, we can form the structure of a brighter and more peaceful future.

Uniform and Expectations

I would like to take the opportunity to thank all students and parents for their support of the college uniform policy. How we manage our uniform expectations shows the community how we present and care for self. A reminder that hair on all students should be always tied back if longer than the collar and that students should not be wearing hairstyles that bring undue attention to themselves. This includes “tracks” in the side of the head as well as haircuts shorter than a number two blade. Students have been reminded about expectations regarding hair and accessories this week. All hair bands should be in line with the colours of the college. Shoes and socks must match the uniform of the day.

 

Take care and God Bless

SCISSA Junior and Intermediate Soccer

It was a quiet fixture this week for Pacific soccer teams with only two out of our five teams playing matches. Our Junior Boys’ Team 2 lost to a very strong St Andrews team. We congratulate the boys on their continuous dedication to their team and skill which is improving each week. We celebrate our Intermediate Boys this week. The Intermediate Boys were able to get their first win of the season over a quality Flinders side in a close 1-0 win. We are excited to see their strong performance continue into the last few rounds of the season. Well done to both teams this week.

SCISSA Senior Volleyball

A difficult round for Pacific Volleyball teams this week with several teams up against some strong opposition. Both Senior Boys Teams competed valiantly throughout their games. The story was much the same for the Senior Girls Team 2 who lost in a close game to St Andrews. The Girls continue to sit high up in the table and are prepping themselves for some strong weeks leading into finals competition. We congratulation our Senior Girls Team 1 who were able to showcase their development over the last few weeks and beat a quality Good Shepherd outfit.

Trish Buckley (Senior Volleyball)

There were no Trish Buckley games in Week 6. Our Senior teams now focus on their games this Friday night at Caloundra Indoor Stadium. While our Year 11 Girls team has a bye, we wish the Year 12 Girls and Boys teams the best of luck for their games tomorrow night.  

Monday Night Netball

Round 3 saw teams move divisions to even the level of competition between schools. Due to the storm activity on Monday evening, games were eventually cancelled for the 5.40pm, 6.30pm and 7.20pm time slots for this round.

Our Junior teams were able to play three quarters before their game were called off due to the thunder and lightning. All teams look forward to their round 4 fixtures next week.

Student Acknowledgements

  • We congratulate Chase McLady in Year 8 who was selected in the Under 15’s Touch Regional Team. This is a fantastic effort considering Chase only turned 13 in November. We wish Chase the best of luck in the upcoming State Championship.
