On Thursday 20 February our secondary students gathered at Perth HPC for the Year 7 – 12 Guild Swimming Carnival. The day was filled with excitement and guild spirit led by our Guild Coordinators and Year 12 Guild Captains. The novelty events offered a lighter side of competition and were a lot of fun.
There were some fantastic individual achievements, and we look forward to celebrating these students in the coming week. Congratulations to Chisholm Guild who were awarded the Guild Spirit Award and to Marcellin Guild for taking out first place in a very close race!
Online Safety – How Parents can support their children in the digital world
In today’s digital age, the internet is an integral part of daily life for children. From school assignments to socialising with friends, online platforms have become essential tools for learning and entertainment. However, with the countless opportunities the internet provides, there are also risks that parents must be aware of and address. As guardians of their children’s wellbeing, it’s crucial for parents to play an active role in ensuring their children stay safe online and knowing what the legal consequences are, should a young person under the age of 18 be found to break the law. Further information for parents can be found .
It is also a timely reminder that the will take effect by December 2025 and will introduce a mandatory minimum age of 16 for certain social media platforms. The change aims to strengthen existing measures for protecting young users, especially where there are particular risks associated with accessing potentially harmful social media content and features, such as persistent notifications and alerts that have been found to have a negative impact on sleep, stress levels and attention.

A huge thank you to students and families who attended the Marcellin Parent Information Evening on Monday 3 February. There was a fantastic turnout and it was great to see so many families engaging with our teachers. For those who were unable to attend the event, you can find a link to the presentations As we continue to refine the evening, we would greatly appreciate it if you could provide feedback via this
Establishing Good Habits and Student Diary Secondary
Secondary students and families are reminded that students must list their homework in a central location each period to ensure their study time is effective and targeted. Year 7s have been provided with a hard copy of the Secondary Student Diary. A digital copy of the Secondary Student Diary has been posted on cohort Teams for students to download and use if they wish. Setting up good habits early in the year sets students up for a successful year and supports working smarter and not harder.
Physical Curriculum Variation and Swim Shorts
At ÐãÐãÖ±²¥, we are committed to providing a well-rounded education that supports students’ academic, physical, emotional, and social development. Our Physical Education program plays a vital role in this holistic formation, aligning with our mission to nurture the whole person in the context of faith, learning, and community.
Where students are unable to participate in Physical Education (PE) classes due to injury, illness, or medical conditions, a curriculum variation must be granted by the Deputy Principal, Teaching and Learning and the Leader of Learning. All curriculum variation applications are to be supported by specialist medical documentation. Students who have been granted a curriculum variation must remain in the PE class for the duration of the lesson and be under the direction of their PE teacher. This ensures the College’s duty of care and ensures students are present for important lesson content and do not fall behind. Students are not permitted to use this time to study in the library or complete homework. In some cases, students may be asked to complete a theory-based task related to the lesson. This approach ensures continued learning while supporting our core values of excellence, integrity, and respect.
To ensure all students feel comfortable in the pool, the uniform policy has been updated to allow all students in Years 7-12 to purchase school board shorts for swimming lessons.
We appreciate your cooperation in supporting Physical Education at ÐãÐãÖ±²¥.
It has been a wonderful start to the 2025 school year, with the smiling faces of students, staff and parents once again visible across the Primary campuses. Our students are settling nicely into their new classrooms, campuses and routines. At the start of the year, it can often be a time of adjustment for many students as they learn new teachers, peers and structures. If you have any concerns during this time, I encourage you to reach out to your child’s classroom teacher to discuss them.
Communication
As mentioned at the Primary Parent Information evening, this year will continue our efforts to refine and streamline communication with Primary parents.
The newsletter will be used to post as much information as possible for the upcoming fortnight, so I encourage all families to read the newsletter carefully each fortnight and refer to the information as required throughout the term. Past newsletters can always be found on the College website.
Email and the official ÐãÐãÖ±²¥ App will be utilised to communicate with parents in between newsletters.
SeeSaw will now be kept as a place to view your children’s class work, as well as a place for the classroom teacher (and specialist teachers when required) to post directly to individual class/cohort parent groups.
ÐãÐãÖ±²¥ App
The ÐãÐãÖ±²¥ app should now be available once more in the Apple store after some issues with the Apple App Store in the last few weeks. It would be beneficial if parents could ensure they have the ÐãÐãÖ±²¥ App, as this will be utilised more in 2025 as one of the main modes of communication.
To download the app in the App Store (Apple Devices) or Google Play (Android Devices) simply type in ÐãÐãÖ±²¥.
Alternatively, the direct links are here:
It is important to select “Primary” under subscriptions. This can be found by clicking on “More” and going to “Settings”.
Parent Information Evening
A huge thank you to all of the Primary parents who were able to come along to the Primary Parent Information Evening held last Thursday. It was a wonderful event and the Primary Leadership Team heard so much positive feedback from parents on the night. I hope the night was very informative and that those who attended the optional sessions in the second half of the evening found them meaningful. As always, we are interested in any parent feedback from the evening, so if you have any feedback to share on the classroom sessions, optional sessions or the event itself, I ask you to complete .
A copy of the Optional and the can be found here for those interested.
Primary Family Picnic
I look forward to seeing as many families as possible at the upcoming Primary Family Picnic. Please click here for details.
ÐãÐãÖ±²¥ Norms / Medals of Marcellin
Our Medals of Marcellin are back in 2025! Each fortnight at each Primary campus, one person will be drawn out of the raffle and receive a small prize for living out our ÐãÐãÖ±²¥ Norms. Congratulations to Will (Marian Campus) who was the Week 1 winner of our raffle! Each raffle ticket received is swapped for a token and the Guild with the highest number of tokens at the end of the term wins a prize for the whole Guild!
Primary Swimming Carnival (Y3-6)
Please see below for communication from Mrs Richards regarding the upcoming 2025 Swimming Carnival. We ask that all students remain at the event until the end of the school day (3:00pm) to support their peers and their Guilds. Should you need to leave early for an appointment, please email Amanda.johnson@newman.wa.edu.au to advise so we have notice. If students do not remain until the end of the Carnival it becomes very difficult with the number of names needing to be called over the PA System whilst also trying to run the event effectively. For those parents with children at Marian, rest assured they will be supervised by staff until you arrive after the Carnival, so there is no need to leave the Carnival early.
URSTRONG
Last year saw the successful introduction of the URSTRONG Friendship Curriculum across the Primary. It has been wonderful to hear so many families using the same language and discussing the same concepts at home. A reminder, parents continue to have access to a . We hope that as a URSTRONG Family, you will reinforce the important messages of empowerment, self-compassion, & kindness at home.
Student Illness
A reminder that if students are sick they should not attend school. We ask for parent cooperation with this to ensure sickness does not spread to other students and our teaching staff. Already this year we have seen a significant number of students and staff away from school with illness. If students attend school with symptoms of being sick, the front office will contact parents to come and collect them. If students have vomited, they should remain at home for 24 hours after the last time they vomited. Thank you for your understanding and support to ensure the wellbeing of our students and staff, and the continuity of learning programs.
Homework Club
Lavalla Homework Club resumes this term for students in Years 3-6.
Commences: Week 4 – Tuesday 25 February
When: Tuesday afternoons (Term 1 Weeks 4-9)
Where: Lower Level Years 3-6 Building
Time: 3:00-4:30pm (please note pickup is strictly at 4:30pm)
Homework Club is an opportunity for your child to spend time in the afternoon completing their homework, collaborating with peers on tasks/projects, working independently on unfinished work, as well as receiving additional support from teachers who are supervising.
Students are provided time to have their own afternoon snack at 3:05pm, plus a short play, before commencing Homework Club at around 3:30pm.
If your child will be attending Homework Club, you are asked to complete so we are aware of the expected numbers and can ensure appropriate supervision.
Sacramental Program 2025
Students in Years 3, 4 and 6 in 2025 will be preparing for the Sacraments of Reconciliation, Eucharist and Confirmation. The learning component of the Sacrament will be completed at school and parents are required to contact their local parish to enrol their child if they wish them to receive the Sacrament. Further information can be found within the links below, and each Parish will have slightly different requirements with regards to their Sacramental Program.
Enrolments for all parishes are open and parents are encouraged to enrol their children as soon as possible, as many of the parishes will be finalising their enrolments next week.
If you have any questions regarding the Sacramental Program please contact Jane Short, Primary Religious Education Coordinator, jane.short@newman.wa.edu.au

Numeracy and Literacy Support Programs
In primary school, we use a three-tiered approach to support Literacy and Numeracy development.
In level 1 the classroom teacher screens and tests students to determine their point of need. They then differentiate the activities in the classroom to accommodate the needs of each student. This may look like different readings, spelling lists or different numbers for a sum.
Level 2 involves withdrawing a small group for support. The classroom screens are used to identify any students experiencing difficulties. Further screens are then completed to identify what small group program would suit them.
For Literacy, we use MacqLit (Years 3-6) and MiniLit Sage (Years 1-2) to focus on phonics support. We also offer Book Club (Years 3-6) to focus on developing comprehension skills and strategies. Parents will receive a letter explaining that their child is invited to participate in these programs. Some students may be withdrawn to focus on fluency with our Fluency Reading program. This program has a more fluid approach and will change depending on student performance week to week.
In Numeracy we also offer tier 2 withdrawn small group support. In Years 1-2 the focus is on strengthening foundational skills. Parent will receive a letter if their child is invited to this program. Years 3-6 students focus on classroom content delivered at a differentiated pace. This program is more flexible and students are invited to come to sessions depending on the topic and their confidence in learning. This approach helps students recognise the need for support and accessing what is available for them.
Tier 3 students have individualised learning programs catering to their specific needs in Literacy and Numeracy. Parents will be informed of any plans for Tier 3 interventions.
All these programs of support are determined by students’ performance in screening assessments and class work. In Term 1 all support programs will begin in week 3.
Library Volunteers
We have wonderful libraries on both our Primary campuses and we encourage students to discover their love of reading by coming to browse and choose books from our large collection. Help is needed with the shelving or covering of books on both campuses and we are seeking parent and or grandparent volunteers to help.
If you would like to offer your assistance, please complete by Monday 17 February. A roster will then be drawn up and details will be emailed to you.
Thank you in advance for your support.

ÐãÐãÖ±²¥ Arts Students Shine at the Catholic Performing Arts Festival 2024
ÐãÐãÖ±²¥ is delighted to celebrate the incredible achievements of its Arts students at this year’s Catholic Performing Arts Festival 2024. We had 277 students from the Lavalla and Marcellin campuses take part in a range of categories, including music, drama, and dance, and their performances were met with great acclaim.
A special congratulations goes to Heloise Nathan, who was awarded the Monsignor Michael Keating Shield, a prestigious honour recognizing her outstanding contribution to the festival. In addition, the College’s production of The Tempest was awarded an Outstanding for its captivating portrayal of Shakespeare’s classic. The Lavalla String Ensemble also earned an Outstanding Award, as did several of our talented String soloists.
Our Primary and Senior Dance Troupes both received Certificates of Excellence, a testament to their hard work and dynamic performances on stage.
These successes are the result of the dedication and passion of not only the students but also their teachers, who have worked tirelessly to support them. Hours of rehearsals and preparation were required to bring these performances to life, and the hard work truly paid off.
Thank you to all involved for making this year’s festival such a success, and congratulations to the students and staff for representing ÐãÐãÖ±²¥ with pride and excellence.
