Principal’s News
Dear Parents, Students and Friends of St Mary of the Angels,
Last Friday’s festivities for our Feast Day
were a beautiful celebration of ‘community’
at St Mary of the Angels and a beautiful
celebration as this wider community
welcomed little Miss Maisie Beatrix Carr
into our Catholic community through the
sacrament of Baptism. Our students were
transfixed as Maisie received the chrism
(blessed oil) and the water to signify new life.
Thank you to Ruth, Andrew, Sarah and little
Noah for sharing this very special occasion
with us.
At this week’s Parents & Friends’ Association
meeting in Cobram, we had a very good turn
up of interested parents. We enjoyed a meal
together and then got down to the business
at hand. Through their interest in the College
and their fund raising efforts, the Parents’
Association has been able to donate money
to the College for the purchase of specialist furniture for the Year 8 area and outdoor furniture for the College oval.
Planning is now underway for other activities such as our lamb raffle, a Deb Ball and possibly a Nutrimetics fundraiser.
All of these activities provide opportunities for people to join in the conversation about the school and to participate in
its life. Michael Ross used Wednesday evening’s meeting to survey those parents in attendance to provide us with
further feedback for our upcoming Full School Review.
Best wishes to those hardy souls who are about to participate in the annual Winter Sleep Out which is being held at
Galen College in Wangaratta. The ‘Sleep Out’ is an act of solidarity with the homeless in our community, to help raise
awareness of the plight of the often unseen members of our community, who for a myriad of reasons, do not have a
safe place to call home.
Our Year 9 students who visited Yipirinya returned to the College this week and those students who are visiting Mungo
National Park departed at the start of the week. Everyone has their ‘special’ story to tell about their experience whilst
on their immersion experience.
A group of interested staff, parents and members of the College Board have met to further discuss the provision of
further opportunities for our students in the area of Agriculture. It was a lively discussion and I thank those people who
made themselves available for the discussion. As our ideas evolve, I will report on the College’s plans for the future.
We received notification at the start of this week that we were unsuccessful in our application to receive a grant to build
a year 7 centre on the east campus. We’ll re-submit our application again next year and see how we fare.
Pace e bene,
Leonie Irwin

Deputy Principal’s News
Dear Lord,
Michael Ross Deputy Principal, Catholic Identity
St Francis, when starting his journey of wanting to be closer to God,
came to understand that God is particularly to be found among the
poor, the outcast, the marginalized. In his day, those who suffered
from leprosy were seen as being at the bottom of the pile. People
were afraid of them and saw them as unclean. They believed
that association with lepers would lead to contracting leprosy,
therefore, they pushed them to the margins of society, literally and
metaphorically. Assisi is built on a hill, with the nobles at the top,
the merchants in the middle, and the poor at the bottom. Everyone
threw their waste out the doors and it flowed downhill. The lower
down you were, the more waste you had to live with. Once the
waste left where the poor lived, it arrived at its final destination,
where the lepers lived. Yet it was precisely this group of people that
Francis chose to be with because he recognized that this is where
God is particularly to be found. In doing so, he was recognizing that
Jesus chose to be with these people during his ministry on earth.
“Father, you give us grace through
sacramental signs, which tell us of the
wonders of your unseen power. In baptism
we use your gift of water, which you have
made a rich symbol of the grace you give
us in this sacrament. At the very dawn of
creation your Spirit breathed on the waters,
making them the wellspring of all holiness.
The waters of the great flood you made a
sign of the waters of baptism, that make an
end of sin and a new beginning of goodness.
Through the waters of the Red Sea you led
Israel out of slavery, to be an image of God’s
holy people, set free from sin by baptism.
In the waters of the Jordan your Son was
baptized by John and anointed with the Spirit.
Your Son willed that water and blood should
flow from his side as he hung upon the cross.
After his resurrection he told his disciples:
“Go out and teach all nations, baptizing
them in the name of the Father, and of the
Son, and of the Holy Spirit.” Father, look now
with love upon your Church, and unseal for
her the fountain of baptism. By the power of
the Spirit give to the water of this font the
grace of your Son. You created man in your
own likeness: cleanse him from sin in a new
birth to innocence by water and the Spirit.”
AMEN

In our own land, we also have people who are pushed to the
margins, and primary among these people are Australia’s first
inhabitants. I have just returned from sharing an immersion
experience at Yipirinya Community School in Alice Springs with
some of our Year 9 students. This is a school that was founded
by the elders of the Town Camps of Alice Springs and caters to
a wide range of Aboriginal students. Many come from places of
disadvantage and the school provides meals and other services
to support them in their education. Just as Jesus did, and just as
Francis did, our students have lived and worked with some of the
most marginalized people in our society. In doing so, they have
been the recipients of much love, and they have given much love.
That love comes from God.
While it was an amazing experience to share with our students, it
also meant that I was not present for our Feast Day celebrations.
This year was particularly blessed as our school community was
privileged to be witness to the baptism of Maisie Carr. Baptism is
the most special of all the sacraments. All the others flow from it.
In baptism, Maisie was made part of the Body of Christ and was
welcomed into a community of faith
that promised to support her in her
journey to know and love God. Our
College community is part of that
support. Many people worked hard
to make the day special for all those
involved but I would particularly like
to thank Sean Berend who crafted
the baptismal font from reclaimed
red gum timber from our old VCE
classes. It was an appropriate
symbol of the continuity of our faith
community, from our past, to our
present, and into the future.

FEAST DAY ACTIVITIES
Last Friday we were blessed with amazing weather for
our Feast Day activities. After a collective feast in our
house groups we moved into some competitive activities
ranging from Ultimate Frisbee, Buronjin and Netball to
Charades, Pictionary and Trivia. Competition was fierce
across the school as Elizabeth, Clare and Francis all
jostled to be crowned champions for the day. In the end,
Elizabeth were the victors followed by Clare and Francis.
A big thank you to Sue McCallum, Michelle McCracken
and student leaders Lily Beer, Jemma Walsh, Carla
Diretto, Savannah Bergamin, Georgina McCracken,
Roisin Hamilton, Brayden Price and Year 11 helpers for
their efforts in organising and coordination on the day.
as well as engage in meaningful discussion about their
own aspirations. Building a strong sense of community
is extremely important at SMOTA and we feel that these
luncheons create positive relationships across the Year
levels. A big thank you to the student leaders for their
efforts in organising and preparing the activities.
THANK A TEACHER
Each day, the staff at SMOTA do their best to inspire,
educate and challenge our students. I hope these videos
inspire students to think about what their teachers do for

Year 9 Immersion
Jessica Kam & Madison Trenerry Year 9
On Tuesday the 22nd of July, twenty one students and four teachers headed off to Alice Springs for our immersion
trip to Yipirinya. While we were there we visited Kings Canyon, Uluru, The Olgas, Alice Springs Reptile Center, Alice
Springs Cinemas, as well as attending mass.
At Yipirinya we received a warm welcome from the students at Yipirinya school. We got split off into classrooms with
people with whom we weren’t necessarily friends We spent the next two days helping and becoming friends with the
children at Yipirinya. On Friday the 25th of July we went to Kings Canyon. It was magnificent but tiring to walk around.
That night we stayed at a community, it was like nothing we had ever experienced before. There were only 9 people
living there in really small, empty houses. On the 26th of July we went to Uluru and the Olgas. They were beautiful
and massive, much bigger than any of us expected. We stayed at the Uluru resort that night.
For the second week of Immersion we stayed in the classroom and helped out the teachers. It was really interesting
and fun to see how their school was different to ours. On Tuesday after school we went to the reptile centre at Alice
Springs. There we were taken on a tour by Grace. We were able to learn lots about reptiles and were able to hold a
snake, thorny devil and a blue tongue lizard. On Wednesday we went to the cinema and saw Antman and on Friday
we went to Anzac Hill, then we went to Mass. Anzac Hill gave us a great view of Alice Springs and Mass helped us
reflect on why we went on Immersion.
A huge thank you to Michael Ross, Rob Dellar and Carolyn Goode, for their efforts on the camp. We also want to say
thank you to Vanessa Byrnes, Paul Congues, Andrea Dobson and John Nihill, for their preparation and organisation
for the lead up to Immersion. We had an amazing time and learnt a lot. It was a great experience and many of us
wished we didn’t have to go home.

5 WAYS TO
RESPECTFULLY DISAGREE

It’s easier to agree than disagree. But we can learn a lot from
conversations where we don’t see eye to eye – if we can
listen and talk rationally, that is.

Unfortunately, many of us either shy away completely from
disagreements or lose it when things don’t go our way. These
5 tips can help keep disagreements constructive – whether
you’re talking to a parent, friend, or anyone else:
1.
Don’t make it personal. If you get upset, it can help
to remember you’re mad at the idea or concept your parent
(or friend, coach, co-worker, etc.) is raising, not the person.
2.
Avoid putting down the other person’s ideas
and beliefs. If you’ve ever been on the receiving end of
someone’s tirade or put downs you know how valuable using
respectful language can be. So instead of saying what you
might be thinking (“That’s a stupid idea!”) try: “I don’t agree,
and here’s why.” Resist the temptation to yell, use sarcasm,
or make derogatory comments and you’ll have a much better
chance of getting your point across.
3.
Use “I” statements to communicate how you feel,
what you think, and what you want or need. Using “you”
statements can sound argumentative. For example, telling
your mum or dad, “You always remind me about chores on
Wednesdays when you know I have a lot of homework” has
a very different tone from “I’m feeling pressured because
I have a lot of homework tonight. Can I do those chores
tomorrow?”
4.
Listen to the other point of view. Being a good
listener is a way of showing that you respect and understand
the other person’s perspective. That makes it more likely
he or she will do the same for you. When the other person
is talking, try to stop yourself from thinking about why you
disagree or what you’ll say next. Instead, focus on what’s
being said. When it’s your turn to talk, repeat any key points
the other person made to show you listened and heard
what was said. Then calmly present your case and why you
disagree.

5.
Stay calm. This is the most important thing you can
do to keep a conversation on track. Of course, it’s a huge
challenge to stay calm and rational when you feel angry or
passionate about something – especially if the person you’re
talking to gets heated. You may need to be the mature one
who manages the conversation, even if the other person is a
parent or someone who should know better.
Buses Pick-Up Times
Respect goes beyond difficult conversations, of course.
Being helpful and considerate toward family members,
teachers, or coaches in our everyday actions helps all of us
(again, parents included!) establish a foundation for those
times when we might disagree.

It is imperative that all students be at their bus stop
before their allocated time to make sure our bus
system operates smoothly and in a timely manner.
We appreciate parents, guardians and students
support in ensuring students arrive in plenty of time
to catch their respective buses.
Tom Robinson, Bus Coordinator
Slight changes have been made to a number of our
buses’ pick up times due to these buses arriving
late to the College and students therefore missing

After a brief and at times overwhelming run-through of

to debate their first resolution. The resolution pertained
to the ‘Question of corruption in the 21st century’. The
second resolution denounced extremist political parties
and called for the banning of parties of this nature.
Ellana, speaking as the delegate for Chile acknowledged
the serious threat that extremism can pose, using
her country as a case study. China spoke against the

Medea
On Tuesday the 4th August the Year
10 English/Humanities class (pictured
right) attended a performance of
Euripides’ play ‘Medea’ at Eastbank in
Shepparton.
One of the earliest plays ever written,
‘Medea’ is 2,500 years old and yet
the themes of revenge, betrayal,
equality of the sexes, and love, are all
as relevant now as they were to the
Ancient Greeks.
The opportunity to see the play
performed
enhanced
students’
understanding of the text and will
provide them with an excellent

Ferragosto
August in Italy is a special month. August falls in the
Italian summer and most Italians are on holiday during
this time. A very special festival, known as ‘Ferragosto’,
is widely celebrated on August 15th each year.
Apart from being a national holiday, ‘Ferragosto’
commemorates the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin
Mary into heaven. The statue of Mary is carried through
the streets of many towns and progresses to the local
church where mass is offered.
Coinciding with this festival, a very ancient and well
known horse race, ‘Il Palio di Siena’, is held on August
16th in Tuscany. The prize for this race, unlike most
races in our modern world, is not monetary. Horses and
jockeys race for ‘Il Palio’, a prestigious banner displaying
the image of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The race is unusual
as it is run within the main town square or piazza and
horses are allotted to riders through a lottery. Jockeys
ride bare back. Some of our Year 7 students have been
investigating Il Palio di Siena in Italian this week.

ENGINEERS
You will find by clicking on this Myfuture link, that there
are 147 different types of engineers—most of whom need
a University qualification. Some of the jobs have a video
clip to watch—which is handy for your decision making.
As it is Engineers Week (in Australia) let us chat about
this amazing career!
Engineers are cool dudes (& dude-ettes) who love to
make things. Most man-made things you touch, smell,
and see have been engineered by an engineer.
SEMI-PROFESSIONALS
When a student walks into my office and tells me that
they want to be an engineer, I ask, what type? I either
get a straight shooting answer (because they know which
type) or a dumbfounded expression (because they don’t
realise how many DIFFERENT engineering options there
are to choose from).
Associate Engineers
There are also engineers called Associate Engineers.
Associates study at TAFE and their role is to ASSIST
Professional Engineers on the job. Sometimes all
THREE engineer types might work together. Trades,
Professionals & Semi-Professionals.

FRIDAY 7 AUGUST 4-7PM
LA TROBE
OPEN DAY
Hang on, even with apprenticeships there are
different choices. Do you want fabrication or
mechanical?
AND…. what specialisation? Huh? Well,
for example, mechanical apprentices can
specialise in fitting & turning, light mechanical
or even lock-smithing.
A quick flick through your local yellow pages
(look up Engineering) will prove to be an
interesting way to find out what type of
engineering is available locally. While you are
at it, why not circle one or two to approach for
work experience?
Work experience is the BEST way to decide
which engineering trade suits YOU.

about HOW to find an apprenticeship (the
