From the PrincipalFathers’ Day
This morning saw many fathers
accompany their sons to school and
enjoy breakfast at the College. It was an
opportunity for the boys to acknowledge
their dads and to ensure that they had
a great start to what we hope will be a
memorable weekend for them. Thank you
to the many staff and the members of the
Parent Council who cooked and served
the breakfast – some starting as early as
5.30am!
There are many virtues that dads can
instil in their sons as a result of good
parenting but there is little doubt
that those which are modelled will be
remembered long after those which are
imparted by word. Integrity, honesty
and faithfulness are gifts that a man
shares with his wife while they are being
simultaneously learned by his son. It is
only through his own good example that
a father can expect to enjoy the pride and
satisfaction of watching his son mature
into someone who believes in himself and
leads a full life.
Of course, the task for fathers is rarely
uncomplicated and there sometimes
seems to be a critical flaw in generational
understanding. This was summed
up by American clergyman, Charles
Wadsworth when he wrote, “by the time
a man realises that maybe his father
was right, he usually has a son who
thinks he is wrong.” Perhaps the secret
for dads is to accept that the perfect

father does not exist and that our task
is to ensure that the critical moments
we share with our sons hold enough
lessons for their lifetime. Over this
weekend, I hope that all of the fathers
in our school community are reminded
of the love of their families and the
value placed upon their good work.
AFL - WA Schoolboys Cup
Congratulations to the members of the
Year 8/9 Football team on making the
Grand Final of the WA Schoolboys Cup.
This game will be played as a curtain
raiser to the West Coast versus Adelaide
contest this Saturday at Paterson’s
Stadium. The bouncedown for the boys’
game will be at 3.30pm and anyone
attending the AFL game may like to come
early to support our team.
This game is the culmination of a
competition involving more than 350
schools across the state and is the
only football competition open to
every school in WA. Our own team has
defeated metropolitan and country
schools to reach this stage. We wish
all of the boys and their coaches
the best of luck for Saturday.
Music Awards
Congratulations to all of the boys
currently participating in the Catholic
Schools’ Performing Arts Festival. Further
to last week’s announcement, the College
has recently been notified that Tim
Arnott (Woodwind), Thomas Mansfield
(Woodwind) and Tony Ziegelaar (Brass)
have each received Honourable Mentions
in the Instrumental Solo section of the
Festival. Alessandro Monaco (Woodwind)
received a Certificate of Merit in the same
section. These awards duly recognise the
outstanding talents and efforts of these
young musicians and their tutors.
CBC Family Mass
Among the many significant liturgies that
occur at the College each year, the two
Family Masses provide the opportunity
“It is only through his own good example that a father can expect to enjoy the pride and satisfaction of watching his son mature into someone who believes in himself and leads a full life.”
for our community to come together on
a voluntary basis to celebrate our
common sense of purpose.
This is a further invitation to all families
and friends of CBC to attend our second
and final Family Mass for this year to
be celebrated on Saturday 31 August
at 6.00pm at St Patrick’s Basilica. As
a College which prides itself on being
inclusive, we look forward to welcoming
regular and infrequent churchgoers,
Catholics and non-Catholics alike.
All generations of your family are
welcome!

This week marked the beginning of Edmund Rice Productions,
a new project championing the rights of those in need of social
justice.
Year 9 students, Keane Bourke and Alex Natale, challenged
Greens Senator Scott Ludlum on the Greens’ policy on asylum
seekers. The outcome was an interview that should be heard
by all of our community as it contrasted sharply with much that
we’ve been hearing in the media so far. The interview can be
heard at soundcloud.com/#edmund-rice-productions
Several interviews also took place at the Edmund Rice Centre
Mirrabooka that helps refugees and other needy people. These
will shortly be made available.

Speaking up for social justice
Last Sunday, 42 CBC students arrived at City Beach prepared to
serve the Perth community. Starting in the early morning dark,
the boys spent seven hours unpacking and distributing drinks
to nearly 50,000 thirsty City to Surf competitors. Most found
themselves with blistered hands and sore shoulders early on, but
they didn’t let this curb their energy or enthusiasm, continuing to
work tirelessly throughout the day.
The students were a credit to the College, not only because
they gave up a large portion of their weekend to volunteer their
time, but also because of the responsible manner in which they
undertook the task and the positive ways that they interacted
with the public.
A big thank you to all of the students involved in this activity and
to Ms Marriann O’Neill and Mr David John for their assistance.

Year 12 Academic Prefect, Ben Anandappa, had only just returned
to CBC after winning bronze at the 45th International Chemistry
Olympiad in Moscow when he volunteered to help others gain
the same experience.
Ben sat the Australian Science Olympiad exams in 2012 and was
selected to participate in a two week summer school at Monash
University. Ben was then chosen as one of the top four students
to represent Australia in Moscow.
Inspired by this experience, Ben founded a Chemistry Olympiad
preparation programme and on Tuesday afternoons voluntarily
taught key concepts from the Australian Science Olympiad
Syllabus, including many Year 12 level topics and beyond, and
worked through the past five years of exam papers.
On 7 August, Year 11 students, Mathew Thomas, Liam Romano,
Solomon Wright and Anthony Iannantuoni, sat the two hour
Olympiad exam.
Congratulations to Matthew, Liam, Solomon and Anthony for their
keen participation throughout the year and well done also to
Ben for his organisation of the preparation classes. We hope to
continue to run the classes next year to build on this initiative.

There are now less than four weeks until
the tour and we are in the final stages of
preparation. Our tour jackets arrived this
week and look very artistic. Thank you
to Yusef Hourani who worked with Ms
Francis to brainstorm potential designs
and fonts, and also to ex-parent Mrs
Allison Cormack who worked tirelessly
with her design company to make the
logo and printing possible. The tour
participants will be presented with their
jackets at the official College farewell
assembly on Tuesday 17 September.
Our Tour Blog site is also in the process
of a 2013 facelift. The site has been a
successful form of communication during

past tours and we hope it continues
to be a hit this time. The travellers
can post images and information at
different locations on tour so family,
friends and staff can see what we have
been up to and are also invited to post
comments. This is a fun and visual way
to communicate with home and share
our adventures. When the site is up
and running it will be accessible via the
College website.
Finally, we would like to thank all the
boys for their continual involvement in
the afterschool workshops. Wednesdays
have been intense workout drills with Mr
Burgio training the boys for their Roman
Soccer Tournament and Ms Francis
touching on the history of Italy. Thursdays
have been a buzz of excitement with Ms
Calanni preparing the boys for the streets
of Italia with essential tips in ordering
food and purchasing items.
Our final meeting is set for Week 9 on
Thursday 19 September. A letter will
follow in the next week outlining all the
details.

The CBC Junior Football team will be
playing in the Grand Final of the Year 8
and 9 School Boys Cup against Darling
Range Sports College on Saturday
afternoon. The game will be a curtain-
raiser to the West Coast and Adelaide
game at Patersons Stadium.
This is a great achievement by the boys
and all members of the squad should be
very proud of their efforts throughout
the group stages and finals to put us in
this position. The competition begins
with more than 350 schools and is the
only football competition involving every
school in WA including PSA, football
specialist and country schools. A win
on Saturday will claim CBC the title of
being the number one football school
in the state and all the boys are very
eager to take this opportunity. CBC has
been runners-up in the competition in
2010 and 2011 and the boys are looking
forward to becoming the first team
from the College to win the prestigious
competition.
On Wednesday the boys received a taste
of glory when they were able to hold the
2013 AFL Premiership Cup and they will
be hoping to hold up their own cup on
Saturday night.

fill quickly.
