Loreto
Chronicle
The Year of Verity
Volume 29 No.1 June 2015
From the Principal
In Loreto Schools across
Australia this year, not only
are we celebrating the
theme of ‘verity’, we are also
remembering with thanks
the life of remarkable Mother
Gonzaga Barry IBVM. Mother
Gonzaga was the founder of
Loreto Schools in Australia and
2015 is the 100th anniversary of her death.
I take this opportunity to share with you
some of her story extracted from the Loreto
Australia website www.loreto.org.au
Mary Barry (24/7/1834 – 4/03/1915) was
born into a large, well-to-do family in
Wexford, Ireland. As a child she witnessed
some of the horror of the Great Famine
of the 1840s and never forgot it. She was
educated at Loreto Gorey and Rathfarnham,
joining the Institute herself at the age of
19, and taking the name of the young
Jesuit saint, Aloysius Gonzaga. Mother
Gonzaga held various leadership positions
over the next 20 years and in 1875, at
the invitation of the Bishop of Ballarat,
led the first group of Loreto Sisters to the
Australian colonies. Gonzaga was small,
plump, profoundly deaf and increasingly
dependent on the use of an ear trumpet and
yet during her 40 years in the colonies she
became one of the most significant figures
in Australian Catholic education, particularly
for women. Ireland was in her soul and yet
she identified with her adopted country. A
woman of extraordinary energy and faith,
she embraced educational initiatives from
kindergarten to tertiary level and founded
teacher training colleges in Ballarat and
Melbourne. In the last 20 years of her life
she took a leading role among Mary Ward
women worldwide in the cause of uniting
various branches of the order. Gonzaga
died at Mary’s Mount, Ballarat, on 4 March
1915 and is buried there in the small
garden cemetery. Gonzaga Barry urged
pupils of Loreto schools to “leave after you
something on which others may build.” She
lived these words herself. In her 40 years
in the Australian colonies she founded ten
girls’ boarding schools, ten day schools, six

2015 College Captains, Grea Effeney and Georgia
Garrett, at the Opening Mass.
I
n 2015, all Loreto Schools throughout
Australia will be celebrating the virtue
of ‘verity’. As we gather here together
today, let us pause and think about what
verity means to each of us. Who are we
called to be? What is divine in all of us?
Mary Ward believed verity was to live
with integrity and truth, particularly the
profound truth of who we are and what
gives meaning to our lives.
At the end of last year, Grea and I travelled
to Melbourne for the annual Loreto
Leadership Conference, along with the
Captains from six other Loreto schools in
Australia. As we explored the meaning
of verity and how we could live this virtue
in our daily lives, we focused on what it
meant to be true to ourselves. One idea
that resonated with us and empowered
us, was Mary Ward’s assertion of “no
half women, no half measures”. Mary
Ward believed in the capacity of women
to contribute significantly to society
and to face challenges or adversity
with courageous hearts. Verity means
committing passionately, with fervour, to all
that we do and being authentic and sincere
in our words and actions. We must have
the courage to seek the truth. We must be
able to love ourselves for all that we are –
which enables us to be true to ourselves
and then to others. When we open our
hearts to verity and truly embrace the truth
of who we are, it is a natural progression to
live sincerely, to act justly, to love tenderly
and to walk humbly with God.
It is our hope that you will adopt the Verity
Prayer created by the student leaders
into your lives not only in 2015, but also in
future years, in order to practice the true
meaning of Mary Ward’s virtue of verity.
This year, we ask you to “ignite the fire, let
truth inspire.” Embrace the virtue of verity
and begin 2015 with the belief that we can
seek the truth always, have the courage to
speak the truth without fear and have the
joy of accepting who we are and sharing
this with others. Let’s unite and ignite the
truth in all that we do this year.
Grea Effeney & Georgia Garrett
2015 Opening Mass
Verity Prayer
Loving God,
In this Loreto year of Verity, we are called to
explore the profound truth
of who we are and what gives meaning to our
lives.
May we be guided to seek your truth, have the
integrity to speak it
and the love to share it.
Encourage us to draw strength from one another
and act as a united voice of truth
in the pursuit of a loving and just world.
Open our hearts and minds to develop a sense
of authenticity in our actions,
so that we may whole heartedly commit to all
that we do.
Help us to recognise your divine presence within
ourselves and those around us,
as we do the ordinary things well, in the
footsteps of Mary Ward.
With one heart we pray.
Amen.

least eight parish schools. Gonzaga
had a profound influence, not only on
Catholic education but in the emerging
world of a migrant-based society where
Catholics were increasingly entering
the professions. Loreto women were
urged not to live a “butterfly existence”
but contribute as wives and mothers, in
the workplace and through charitable
and cultural endeavours. Gonzaga
became a powerful figure in the wider

Institute, forging close bonds with Mary
Ward women internationally through
her extraordinary travels and extensive
correspondence.
Mother Gonzaga Barry was a prolific
writer and her words continue to inspire
and motivate those of us working in her
schools today.
To her Sisters she wrote that the aim of
a Loreto education should be
•“To cultivate, to train, to develop,
to strengthen and to polish all the
physical, intellectual, moral and
religious faculties which constitute
nature and human dignity in the child.
We shall truly be repaid when our
pupils grow into men and women, of
simple pursuits it may be, but of lofty
aims, individuals whose characters
will exert lasting influence on the
world in which they move.”

•“To cultivate the heart. Train it upwards.
Plant noble principles for intellectual
development.”
•Understanding that comes from deep
thinking and a search for truth and
knowledge; (Our Minds)
She further encouraged her Sisters and
Loreto pupils
•Understanding that is open to mystery
and free to refer all to God. (Our Spirit)
•“To cultivate large-mindedness; let there
be nothing petty and narrow in your
views, judgements and opinions.”
She was also insistent that “Studies
derive their chief worth from their effect on
character.”
Therefore, it is pleasing to see that in
Loreto Schools today, her legacy lives
on calling us to cultivate a particular
culture: one that searches for truth through
understanding:
• U
nderstanding of self, others, and all
creation; (Our Hearts)
She encouraged her educators to “Study
the tasks and attractions of the little ones
and to lead them through their own door,
but do not stop there.”
“Strive ever,” she says “to widen and
deepen your hearts and minds, until they
are capable of taking in great things for
God and your fellow creatures.”
These words speak powerfully to us about
the importance of cultivating a particular
culture in our schools where intellectual,
spiritual and moral character development
is at the forefront of all we do.

Council Dinner
The annual Council Dinner was an
occasion for both reflection and joyous
celebration. Members of School Council
and Committees, staff and senior student
leaders joined with IBVM Sisters and
Fr Paul Sireh and Bishop Bill Morris
(retired) from Mt Carmel Parish to listen
to the Most Reverend Mark Coleridge,
Archbishop of Brisbane, deliver a scholarly
and insightful Verity Oration. Much fun and
fellowship then followed as they enjoyed a
beautiful meal together.

Queensland’s top academic performers,
attaining the highest result of 28,500 Year
12 students on the 2014 Queensland Core
Skills (QCS) Test.
Rebecca was recognised for her
outstanding achievement at the inaugural
Queensland Certificate of Education
(QCE) Achievement Awards ceremony
on Saturday 28 February. The prestigious
QCE Achievement Awards recognise
Queensland’s top performing students
for outstanding academic achievement in
their senior school studies. Accepting her
award in front of Queensland Curriculum
and Assessment Authority (QCAA)
representatives, high school principals,
peers and family, Rebecca was presented
with a trophy, certificate and prize money
by Minister for Education, Kate Jones.
Whilst Rebecca received an OP1 and an
A on the QCS Test, what sets her apart
from other high achieving students is her
exceptional combination of high-level
academic achievement and breadth of
learning. Rebecca credits her parents, her
school, Loreto College, and her peers as
the secret behind her success.
“My school and all of my teachers at
Loreto College have been incredibly
committed and played a huge part in my
academic success. A lot of my peers were
also really great.”
Rebecca is no stranger to success. In
2014 she was the Queensland Winner
of the Lions Youth of the Year Quest.
Rebecca appreciates the importance and
privilege of a good education. “I know
how fortunate I am to have been afforded
such opportunities in my senior year. Even

the opportunity to go to school, that’s not
necessarily a given. I think it’s important
to show my gratitude. I definitely value my
education so that inspires me to make the
most of any opportunities that I am given.”
Rebecca has commenced a Bachelor of
Science at the University of Queensland
and has received guaranteed provisional
entry into the Medicine program. Rebecca
was also the recipient of a UQ ViceChancellor’s Scholarship, valued at
$60,000 over five years.

ANZAC Centenary Tour
A
lex White and Taylor Whitewood, both in Year 11 at Loreto Coorparoo, embarked on
the trip of a lifetime in April this year when they travelled to Turkey to commemorate
the centenary of the landing at ANZAC Cove at the Dawn Service at Gallipoli. The girls
were winners of the Premier’s ANZAC Prize, which was established to encourage young
Queenslanders to better understand the ANZAC legacy. Students from across the State
were invited to submit a multimedia presentation exploring how the ANZAC tradition has
shaped Australia and how future generations can keep the tradition alive.
Both girls have an active interest in the history of the World Wars, partly because of
their ancestry. Alex’s great-grandmother’s two brothers served in World War 1 while
Taylor’s great-grandfather was in the Light Horse Brigade in World War 1 and her great
uncle served in the army during World War 2.
Alex and Taylor are keen Modern History students and study French and German,
respectively. In addition, the girls are currently in training to complete the Kokoda
Challenge in the Gold Coast hinterland this July. Over the past 12 months they have
raised significant funds for the Kokoda Youth Foundation and the wounded, injured and
ill Australian Defence Force members through Mates4Mates.
Their ANZAC tour of a lifetime was beautifully summed up by each of the girls.
Alex White:
Visiting Gallipoli for the centenary of the
ANZAC landings was amazing! It was
a surreal experience to be at the Dawn
Service listening to dignitaries such as
Tony Abbott and Prince Charles. What I
enjoyed about the service was the focus
on celebrating the incredible bravery and
mateship of our soldiers.
After spending a few days around
Çanakkale visiting battle fields and
cemeteries, we travelled to Brussels and
then made our way to Ypres where we
were fortunate to be a part of the Menin
Gate Service. This service has run at
8.00pm every night since the end of World
War 1. It was a very special night, with
our group’s choir singing the Australian
national anthem to conclude the service.
We then travelled to the Somme, where
some of the most devastating battles
of World War 1 took place, it was an
emotional experience for us all. Finally,
Taylor Whitewood:
I was incredibly excited to embark on a
journey that would involve not just learning
about the strength of our ANZAC troops in
Gallipoli, but also about their experiences
in France and Belgium. The first day
was especially memorable; we landed
in Istanbul and visited the Hagia Sofia
Mosque, the Blue Mosque, the Palace and
the Grand Bazaar.
Our itinerary was packed with city
sightseeing, visits to famous memorials
and many cemeteries where we
remembered the lives of troops who
died in World War 1. It was, at times, an
emotional and overwhelming experience,
especially when we stood on ANZAC
Cove, and when Alex and I read out the
eulogies of our adopted soldiers. The most
memorable experience for me will always
be the Dawn Service at Gallipoli. Not only
was it eerie to be on that strip of beach
where so many died 100 years ago, but it
was also a beautiful service with touching
speeches.
It’s important to remember the nearly
40 other cemeteries and memorials we
visited; some had 50 soldiers buried there,
some had thousands, each moving in their
we completed the tour in Paris, where we
visited Notre Dame, the Louvre,
the Eiffel Tower
and the Arc de
Triomphe. The trip
was an experience
of a lifetime; the
friends I’ve made
and the places I’ve
seen will never be
forgotten.
own way. The striking message that was
left ingrained in all
of us was the sheer
loss of life that war
brings for all sides.
I’m so grateful that
I was able to go,
because I know
that the memories
I have from the
ANZAC Premier’s
Prize will stay with
me forever.

Dr Raimund Irmer has been a generous
and spirited member of the Loreto College
community for 32 years. Graduating with
a Bachelor of Science, a Doctorate in
Chemistry and Diploma in Education,
Dr Irmer’s educational contribution to
Loreto College has been significant. At the
conclusion of his teaching career, Dr Irmer
achieved Incredibly High Achievement
in English, German, Mathematics C,
Chemistry, Biology and Physics. He also
achieved a Sound Achievement in computer
technology, mobile phones and digital
reporting.
Affectionately known as ‘Doc’, he has
acted diligently not only as a teacher, but a
mentor, supporter and felicitous ally. Who
can forget his enthusiastic participation in
the staff act at each Mission Day and his
uncanny portrayal of Harry Styles from
‘One Direction’? With a smile almost as
white as the paper roll he marks every day,
he has also committed endless hours and
brainpower to what he is best known for,
his puns:
“Does Russell Crowe fly around the school
and do all the squawking?”
“We’d make more chemistry puns but all the
good ones argon.”
Dr Irmer has demonstrated creativity and
meticulous presentation as an exemplary
ambassador for the College. He never fails
to impress his students with his shorts and
socks combinations, always paired with the
most stylish of school shoes. In winter, he
may even wear a long sleeved shirt on a
particularly chilly day. In the classroom, Dr
Irmer speaks knowledgably, confidently and
enthusiastically in his lessons. His desire to
make a positive difference has been evident
in all of his endeavours.
Dr Irmer is an inspirational gentleman and
teacher. We hope he recalls his time at
Loreto with great fondness and pride. Doc’s
deeply held values, felicity and authenticity
shine through in his relationships
with others. We thank Dr Irmer for his
outstanding contribution to Loreto.
Mr Kenny’s contribution to Loreto
College over the past 24 years has been
remarkable. Whether teaching classes or
working with Vinnie’s, he always contributed
with a positive attitude, numerous survival
stories and high socks. Mr Kenny has been
an admirable teacher of Mathematics, Junior
Science and Senior Biology. It is evident
from his many high achieving students that
he has been successful in his teaching
and encouraging with his words, despite
occasionally getting distracted and telling us
several life stories in a row. Mr Kenny has a
vested interest in linking Science to real-life
experiences. We would like to thank Mr
Kenny for teaching us where oxygen comes
from, what combustion is and lastly, how
and why our bikes rust when we leave them
out in the rain.
As a member of the Year 10 Homeroom
team, Mr Kenny has attended many Year 10
Camps where he has shared his knowledge
of outdoor pursuits such as kayaking,
bushwalking and jumping out of tall trees
backwards or upside-down. Mr Kenny is
also a talented fiction writer. Together with
his brother, Mr Kenny published ‘The Deep
Channel’ in 2012, inspired by his time spent
in the Torres Strait.
Mr Kenny has played a significant social
justice role at Loreto through his work with
Vinnie’s and Rosie’s. These were both
organisations that saw Mr Kenny encourage
and inspire students to participate. His
passion for helping people is evident not
only through his personal interactions with
others and his involvement in the Loreto
community, but also in communities abroad.
Mr Kenny has travelled to East Timor
several times, where his practical and
scientific skills have aided communities in
need. Mr Kenny’s commitment of time and
willingness to share have been a gift to our
community.
Finally and sincerely, we would like to wish
Mr Kenny the best of luck with his retirement
and encourage him to continue to teach,
influence and inspire people just as he has
done with generations of Loreto students.
Mr Deveson joined Loreto College in 1988
and has served the school community
admirably for 27 years. During this time
he has taught Mathematics to thousands
of students and has spent thousands of
hours in the Maths Help room, generously
and competently allowing students to
grow under his reassuring guidance. As a
teacher of Study of Religion, Legal Studies,
Economics, Religion and Mathematics, he
has imparted his wealth of knowledge and
passion for learning to his students. He is
known for his prodigious memory as he
forgets nothing and is a walking archive of
information.
For many years, Mr Deveson has arrived
at school early, unlocked 219’s doors and
waited for the lost sheep of Maths to gather.
Here, he has consoled girls in tears over
Maths assignments, prevented break downs
before Maths exams and on occasion,
relinquished the answers. This has brought
incredible comfort and been invaluable
in encouraging hundreds of students to
embrace the challenges of Mathematics.
Mr Deveson was Year 10 Coordinator for
many years and enjoyed the excitement that
only Year 10 Camp can bring. He always
wants his students to be their best selves
and we are blessed that he answered the
call to make his life’s work teaching. His
gentle strength, humble wisdom and the
great respect he shows others will be sadly
missed, including the polite “Good Day” that
he would say in passing. With constancy
and faith he has lead, taught and inspired.
We cannot thank Mr Deveson enough
for his contributions, and he will remain a
valued and respected member of the Loreto
community long into his retirement.

& ACADEMIC
EXCELLENCE
Mrs Williams has been a dedicated
member of the College community since
1985, as a teacher of Drama, English,
German, Study of Religion and Religion,
and eventually Drama Coordinator. Mrs
Williams had significant responsibility for
numerous musicals during her time at the
College from Godspell to Grease. She has
been in charge of the Drama Council and
helped to coordinate the Junior Drama
Club, choosing scripts and planning the
Showcase Performance, as well as staging
numerous Senior Drama Performances and
Year 10 Collage Dramas. Most importantly,
Mrs Williams often helped produce the Staff
Act, the highlight of Mission Day, easily
enlisting the help of others to ensure an
extravaganza of entertainment.
Mrs Williams has significant experience
and expertise in QCS and NAPLAN which
has been of great benefit to students.
She provided great insight into specific
techniques and strategies to enhance
academic success, which proved to be
immensely valuable. Just her gentle words
of encouragement were appreciated.
As a Year 12 Homeroom teacher, Mrs
Williams has been on numerous Retreats,
sharing her time and faith with hundreds
of students. She is always calm and
unflappable, easily embracing change
and challenge with courage and a positive
attitude. Mrs Williams has a great sense of
humour and always has a lively classroom.
She is not a ‘drama queen’ but is certainly
the ‘Queen of Drama’. Mrs Williams is a true
woman of Mary Ward who exemplifies the
qualities of sincerity, verity and felicity in all
that she does. She will be sadly missed but
we know that Loreto has been a better place
for her presence.

EXCELLENCE
Mr Elsworthy has been a generous and
spirited member of the Loreto community
since 1986. From his first role as the Maths
Coordinator to his current position as the
Deputy Principal – Curriculum, he has
always displayed a quick mind and a quick
wit – although he may need some new
jokes.
Mr Elsworthy has been involved in Debating
and Mooting throughout his time at the
College, assisting with coaching and
mentoring of Senior teams. He loves a good
argument and he has effectively imparted
his skills and experience to countless
debaters. Mr Elsworthy attended numerous
Year 12 Retreats and shared a plentiful
array of travel stories from all of the amazing
places he has been.
Being responsible for the timetable, Mr
Elsworthy kept the whole school running
smoothly and efficiently. He is never late,
even when all of his beloved clocks went
mysteriously missing from the Mary Ward
Centre. Mr Elsworthy is also responsible
for implementing the QCS program and
administers the annual test to each new
group of Year 12s. He is a forebiding figure
at the microphone, striking fear into anyone
who does not have a HB pencil – and
heaven forbid if you are not paying attention!
But the fact that he can explain clearly and
in immense detail how OPs are calculated
is really deserving of an Honour Pocket on
its own!
We thank Mr Elsworthy for his tireless
commitment to the Loreto community and
wish him all the very best for his retirement.

Federation 2015
Dare to be True
Loreto Federation – 17–19 April 2015
Members of the Loreto Coorparoo Past
Pupils’ Association attended the 29th
Loreto Federation in Ballarat – a very
fitting location as it was the first Loreto
school established in Australia 140
years ago by Mother Gonzaga Barry.
The theme this year, Dare to be True,
was comprehensively addressed by so
many high calibre speakers from diverse
professional backgrounds who shared
their stories, their influences and their
visions. The Hon Mary Delahunty was an
excellent master of ceremonies for the
weekend, and the Hon Quentin Bryce
AD CVO, and Kate Torney, the Australian
Broadcasting Corporation’s Director of
News, and Ballarat past pupil, were two of
the many inspiring speakers.
As always happens, Federation “firsttimers” consistently leave the weekend
enriched in so many ways and often
wonder why they have never been
before! Anthea Newcombe (Wright
1998), a past pupil and current member
of the teaching staff, said, “Attending
Loreto Federation was a transformative
experience. With speakers addressing
their work and challenges in areas
ranging from astrophysics to programs
in the developing world, the conference
heard from women who truly live Mother
Gonzaga Barry’s exhortation to “leave
something after you on which others may
build”. These speakers issued a call to all
Loreto women to “lean in and change the
world.”
Another member of the teaching staff,
Marie Shaw, reflected:
“As a first-timer, Loreto Federation was
an impressive experience. The historical
occasion, the backgrounds of the
speakers and the general organisation
were superb. Also, the shared spirit, the
warm camaraderie and generous good will
of those attending were palpable for me.
The legacy of Federation will linger on for
me for the two years until the next one.”
On a practical note the delegates worked
to redraft the Federation Constitution and
to form the 2015 resolution to take back
to their own Past Pupils’ Association. The
adopted resolution is:
Inspired by the vision of Mary Ward and
Gonzaga Barry, and by the example of
Pope Francis, we resolve to reclaim the
freshness of the Gospels. We will explore
more tangible means of harvesting the
immense social and intellectual capital
of the Loreto Family and find effective
ways to improve the lives of the poor, the
vulnerable, and the marginalised.
The Federation organisers, led so
capably by Meg Barry, provided wonderful
hospitality and are to be congratulated.
The challenging and inspirational program
was complimented with beautiful liturgies
and the joy that comes from sharing
Loreto music. The sound of so many
women (and men) joining together in
singing the Holiday Hymn is always a
highlight of the weekend!

Italian and Greek gusto!
