Learning Conversations
This week, the very important learning conversations were held on the Secondary
Campus. These conversations provided a valuable opportunity for students, families and
staff to review the learning so far, and/or to outline the work that is still to come.
As always, the conversations were a good way of maintaining open lines of
communication between the home and school, and of ensuring that we are all (parents,
teachers and students) on the same page in regards to the each student’s academic,
emotional and social situation and the steps that we will each take to enable continued
progress.
In particular, this year’s learning conversations focused on our 5 Habits of Excellence:
1.
Attendance
2.
Punctuality
3.
Application
4.
Work Completion
5.
Involvement in the Nazareth Community
As you know, these five Habits combine to form the key actions that support a focus
on excellence.
Indeed, as we strive to model and ensure a culture of excellence at Nazareth, it is
timely that we remind ourselves of the underlying rationale for making such an
explicit focus on these five factors. It is because:
•
We understand and promote “excellence” to be a habit and not an act;
• According to research both at this school and beyond, students who are most
successful at school (academically, civically and personally) and ideally prepared for
life beyond the school, regularly demonstrate these habits, while those who are most
‘at risk’ – either in reality or potentially – do not demonstrate some or all of these
habits; and
• A culture of excellence requires a consistent commitment from all in the community (students, families, and staff) to the habits that create or shape excellence.
Improving achievement at school
With this clear rationale in place, the learning conversations provided an ideal
opportunity review each student’s progress in relation to these 5 Habits and, where
necessary, to identify and implement a range of strategies designed to increase
academic achievement.
The easiest and most significant action that any student or family could take to
improve academic achievement is to increase their child’s attendance rate at school.
Indeed, there is ample proof to support this view.
The Department of Education and Training undertook an analysis of factors that
may be associated with student achievement, based on the results of the 2010
Year 7 cohort on the literacy and numeracy tests. The study incorporated data
on socioeconomic status, students changing schools and student attendance. The
analysis indicated that ‘every day counts’ in relation to student learning outcomes as
determined by the Year 3, Year 5 and 7 testing program results.
The study found that:
there is a linear relationship between attendance and achievement, and between
•
mobility and achievement (higher attendance and lower mobility were both associated
with higher achievement)
the relationship between attendance and achievement were stronger than the
•
relationship between mobility and achievement
substantial proportions of the socioeconomic - achievement relationship can be
•
explained by student mobility and attendance
So, what can we make of all of this? The overwhelming view in the research literature,
and indeed from our own school based data, is that the more time a child spends at
school, the better he or she is likely to do. Therefore, as far as academic achievement
goes, every day counts!

Holy Day of Obligation – Feast of the Assumption of Mary
This Wednesday is a very important day on the Church’s liturgical calendar - so important that we are asked
to attend mass if we can. We remember the story of Mary, the Mother of Jesus and how because of her
holiness and goodness, at the time of her death was bodily assumed into heaven.
A candlelight Mass is being held in the OLM Church this Wednesday night at 7.30pm for those wishing to
attend.
Year 2 Neighbourhood Mass
The staff and children in the Year 2 Neighbourhood warmly invite you to join them this Friday at 9.15am in
the OLM Church for their Neighbourhood Mass. In commemoration of the Feast of the Assumption their
theme will focus on Mary.
Nazareth Community Sacrament News
We offer our congratulations to all the children who were confirmed last weekend. As well as the thirtyeight children involved in the Nazareth Community Programme, many others have also celebrated their
Confirmation in their chosen parish of worship. Strengthened by the Holy Spirit may all our newly confirmed
strive to use their God given gifts and those of the Spirit to make a difference in the world.
Over the next few weekends these children will complete their Initiation into the Catholic Church by
receiving Jesus in Communion for the first time. Please keep them in your prayers.
Families involved in the Nazareth Programme will be receiving a final reminder note a few days prior to their
celebration.
Clarification on Hindmarsh/Flinders Park/Findon Sacrament Flyer
The flyer advertising an Information Evening on Tuesday 4 September is for families wishing to prepare their
children for the sacraments through the Hindmarsh/Flinders Park Parish Programme. Previously, Findon
Parish was connected with several of our western parishes including Albert Park/Pennington. This year it
has amalgamated with Hindmarsh/Flinders Park, hence all correspondence will have all three parish names
connected to it. When determining where to prepare your child for sacraments we always encourage
families to consider where they feel connected to community and particularly which parish will be their
Eucharistic Community where they will attend Mass.
Information on 2013 enrolments for Nazareth Community’s Sacramental Programme will be communicated
via the newsletter in Term 4. This is offered to families of our community and those in the Findon area who
celebrate Mass in the OLM Church, Findon.

2011 Australian Vocational Student Prize
The Hon Peter Garret AM MP, Minister for School Education, informed the College that Monica Lam (Year
12 student, 2011) has been awarded an Australian Vocational Student Prize for 2011.
Winners of this Award receive a certificate and $2000.
The Australian Vocational Student Prize recognises the achievements of students who
completed their senior secondary studies while undertaking a vocational education and
training in schools program or an Australian School-based Apprenticeship. This prize
promotes the benefits of vocational education and reflects the commitment of schools
to making vocational education learning a valuable experience for students.
The letter states that the support students receive from their school communities,
training providers, local employers and the opportunity to acquire vocational skills while still at school has
provided these young people with an incredible start to their careers.
Congratulations, Monica!

In a very tough and tense match Westminster piled
on the pressure in the opening 10 minutes and
it took some resolute defending and outstanding
goalkeeping to ensure that we didn’t concede an
early goal. As the boys began to find their feet they
played some excellent soccer and dominated play,
spurning a couple of good chances to take the lead.
After half time Westminster got back into the match
and both sides began to create chances. The deadlock
was broken 15 minutes into the second half as
Westminster took the lead. We again created some
excellent opportunities but failed to capitalise, and 5
minutes from time Westminster took a 2-0 lead from
the penalty spot before Pasquale Esposito scored a
late consolation goal. Overall an outstanding effort
from all the boys against a tough opposition but it
also highlighted the importance of converting goal
scoring opportunities.

the fact that Marryatville were bigger and stronger in
many positions. As coach, it was terrific to see that no
Nazareth player dropped their heads or stopped trying
for the whole game. Sam Middleditch and Daniel
Dalese played some inspiring football in defence with
Thomas Possematto playing a key role up forward
once again. Michael Visentin was sensational in a

challenge. We should be very proud of the boys

Student Wellbeing – Bianca Tattoli (Psychologist)
This term, we are focusing on parenting tips that Mark Le Messurier (Adelaide behavioural consultant and
teacher) has shared with parents of students at Nazareth, during various workshops and presentations.
Please see his website http://www.marklemessurier.com/ for further information.
Family meetings: a balance between control and growth
Just 10 minutes a week or fortnight can become a forum to discuss and celebrate what’s working in the
family and what might be fine-tuned. Just talking and trialing new ideas can make a big difference.
The take home message –
All of our kids are in rehearsal. That’s right; they are clumsy, learning and bound to make poor judgments
and mistakes. It’s what young learners do. Most have to ‘muck up’ from time to time in order to grow.
Over time, we begin to understand that our children need to experience good and not so good outcomes
to develop a robust set of emotional and problem solving resources. Oh, a final word on families – I‘ve
never met a perfect one! They don’t exist! The best any of us can do is to be real, to love, be consistent
and continue to review whether what we are doing is adding value to our children’s growth.
