World Teachers’ Day: Celebrating the Heart and Hard Work of Teaching 

This week, as we celebrate World Teachers’ Day, we pause to recognise the extraordinary people at the heart of our College: our incredible teachers. 

Teachers work hard, day in and day out. They plan, teach, support and assess. They take the time when students need it most, offering a friendly chat or a much-needed check-in.  

They make adjustments and modifications so that every young person feels seen, known and included. They hold the stories, hopes and challenges of the young women in their care and they do it with a steady grace that often goes unnoticed. They also share their passion and joy in their classrooms, helping to ignite the passions of the girls.  At St Saviour’s, our teachers use their God-given gifts to bring the God-given potential of others to life.  

On Tuesday evening, we gathered for our annual Goal-Setting Twilight, where our teaching staff shared their professional goals and the growth they have achieved this year. The stories told were as diverse and inspiring as the subjects they teach. 

• Mrs Alyson Holmes spoke about her partnership with Power Tynan, helping to reinvigorate Accounting as a subject and strengthen real-world learning for our students. 
• Ms Tammy Banks shared her journey in helping students think more deeply about scientific concepts, moving from rote learning and recall to deep understanding.  

• Mrs Jenni Potter reflected on how she has grown the Arts offerings and participation at the College, finding new and creative ways to help students be involved in the Arts. 

• Mrs King spoke of her shift into the online classroom and her development in delivering Legal Studies as a hybrid subject across diocesan schools. She shared her learnings and growth in navigating this new space.  

Every teacher shared their growth and their development.  

It was a joy to witness so many expert teachers sharing their practice and their growth with one another, an evening filled with collegial pride and genuine celebration (and a couple of sausage rolls for good measure!) 

Beyond the classroom, our teachers give generously of themselves in ways that continue to shape the life of our College. They coach Rugby 7s (thanks Mr Anderson and Mr Convery) and Wednesday night touch (thanks Mrs Schulze and Mrs Banks), attend overnight camps (thanks Mrs Loi, Mrs Schulze and Mr Grierson and Mr Leathart and Mrs Franke in a few weeks) and lead countless co-curricular programs (thanks Ms Bennett, Mr Nilon, Ms Jensen and Mrs Potter), that strengthen the spirit of our community. Their willingness to step forward, to serve and to go the extra mile is what makes St Saviour’s such a vibrant and hope-filled place to learn. 

On this World Teachers’ Day, we give thanks for our teachers:  for their wisdom, patience and perseverance, for their humour and heart and for the quiet, consistent way they help our Mercy Girls flourish.

Year 12 External Exams Update 

Our Year 12 students have approached their external exams with calm confidence and commendable focus. This week, students in Design, English, Visual Art, Economics and Biology successfully completed their assessments, demonstrating strong preparation and resilience. It has been encouraging to see them applying effective exam strategies and supporting one another throughout this important period. 

We are extremely proud of their perseverance and commitment to learning. Week 5 will see exams in Modern History and General Mathematics (Paper 1) commence on Monday, as students continue their steady progress towards the end of assessment and the finalisation of their Year 12 studies. 

Standardised Testing 

Next week, students in Years 7 to 9 will take part in standardised testing on Tuesday and Friday. The assessments will include a Reading test and a Numeracy test, providing valuable insights that help our teachers and school better understand student learning progress. Students are reminded to bring a fully charged laptop on both testing days to ensure smooth participation. 

Assessment Policy – Assignment Extensions and Absent for Exams 

As the assessment period for Year 7-11 begins in the coming weeks, it is a timely reminder of the assessment extension policy.  

For students in Years 7-10, extensions are granted for extenuating circumstances including illness and family emergencies. Extensions need to be accompanied by a letter/email from a parent or caregiver. To seek an extension, students in Year 7-10 need to see the Curriculum Leader of the subject at least two days prior to the due date to collect relevant paperwork. This needs to be signed by the subject teacher and parent/caregiver before being returned to Student Services for approval. Year 11s must seek assessment extensions through the Deputy Principal, Teaching and Learning.  

If students are absent from an exam, a parent or guardian must inform the school immediately. Students in Year 11 and 12 must also provide a medical certificate. Students will be expected to complete missed exams upon their return, unless an alternative arrangement has been organised.  

Support for Learning 

We want to remind students that there are various opportunities available for additional support with their learning. If you need extra assistance, we encourage you to: 

• Reach Out to Your Subject Teacher: Don’t hesitate to talk with or email your subject teacher if you have questions about coursework or need help preparing for assessments. 

• Visit the Learning Support Team: If you’re finding it challenging to keep up in multiple subjects, stop by the Wellbeing Office to discuss your challenges and explore options for extra support. 

Additional Maths Support 

For those needing more help in Maths, we offer extra tutorials: 

• Tuesdays before school from 7:50am in MR10 
• Thursdays after school from 3:05pm to 4:05pm in the Library 
• Friday first break in MR10 

Take advantage of these resources to enhance your learning experience!

The Power of Awe and the Gift of the Holidays 

With the holidays fast approaching, many families are beginning to plan for the extended break; a time to rest, recharge and reconnect. For our teens, this season offers a valuable opportunity not only for self-care but also for experiencing awe. 

Linda Stade’s article on the benefits of awe (Awe makes kids more generous, empathetic, and content: 5 ways to help find more awe) reminds us that these moments of wonder, whether sparked by nature, music, art or human connection - can be life-giving. Awe helps young people shift perspective, feel part of something bigger and build emotional resilience. It’s not just about grand gestures; even small, quiet moments can have a profound impact. 

Maggie Dent, in Help Me Help My Teen, encourages us to help our adolescents “step into life” by engaging with the world around them. She reminds us that teens thrive when they’re given opportunities to explore, connect and be challenged in safe and meaningful ways. As parents and educators, we can help facilitate these experiences, whether it’s through travel, volunteering, creative pursuits, or simply spending time in nature. 

This holiday season, let’s be intentional about creating space for awe. It’s a powerful antidote to stress and a beautiful way to nurture wellbeing. If we can help our teens experience these moments, we’re not just giving them memories, we’re giving them tools for life. 

Farewell to Our Year 12s 

As our Year 12 students prepare for their external exams, we pause to acknowledge their perseverance throughout the year. It has been a journey of growth, grit and grace. Serving as their Year Coordinator has been an absolute privilege, watching them navigate challenges, support one another and rise to meet their goals has been inspiring. 

We wish them every success in their exams and beyond. They leave behind a legacy of strength and kindness, and we know they will continue to make us proud. 

Year 11 Leadership Camp – QCCC Brookfield 

Earlier this term, our Year 11 students attended a transformative leadership camp at QCCC Brookfield. Despite a few travel hiccups, the experience was rich in connection, growth and purpose. Led by facilitators Josh and Tee, students explored authentic leadership through workshops, storytelling and shared reflection. 

Moments of joy; swimming, relaxing and simply being together, were just as impactful as the structured sessions. Activities like Big Ups encouraged students to affirm one another’s strengths, while a powerful liturgy invited them to reflect on servant leadership and the importance of seeing and supporting each other. 

The camp concluded with a symbolic canvas ritual, representing unity and the legacy they are beginning to build as the senior leaders of 2026. Their journey is just beginning, but their impact is already being felt. 

Senior Jersy Reveal

This week marks a proud milestone for our Mercy girls as the Class of 2026 don their coveted senior jerseys for the very first time. These jerseys are more than just fabric and thread, they’re a powerful symbol of leadership, resilience and the commitment each student brings to their final year of schooling. As they step into their senior year, they carry the legacy of Mercy with pride, ready to inspire, achieve and leave their mark. To our newest seniors: wear your jersey with honour, knowing you represent the spirit, strength and sisterhood of our College. The journey ahead is yours to shape and we are so proud of you already.

Year 10s Stepping Up and Celebrating Our Teachers 

Our Year 10 cohort has truly risen to the occasion this term. As they begin their senior subjects, they’ve shown remarkable confidence and dedication, especially evident in my Year 11 Chemistry class, where their enthusiasm and work ethic shine daily. 

Beyond academics, they’ve also led the charge in celebrating World Teachers' Day. Their thoughtful planning, heartfelt messages and creative tributes brought joy and appreciation to our staff. It was a beautiful reminder of the empathy and leadership emerging in this group. 

Their efforts have helped fill the senior void with energy, kindness and initiative. We’re excited to see how they continue to grow into their leadership roles.

Vinnies Christmas Appeal: your help is needed 

This holiday season, we are launching our Vinnies Christmas Appeal to support those in need. Your generous donations can make a significant difference in the lives of many. Please see below how you can contribute to help us spread joy and hope.

Upcoming liturgical dates: All Saints’ Day and All Souls’ Day 

As we approach November, two significant dates in the liturgical calendar are All Saints’ Day and All Souls’ Day. 

All Saints’ Day is celebrated on 1 November. This holy day of obligation honours all the saints, known and unknown, who have attained heaven. It’s a time to reflect on the lives of the saints and their exemplary faith, and to seek their intercession. 

All Souls’ Day, observed on 2 November, is dedicated to remembering and praying for the souls of the faithful departed. This day emphasises the importance of praying for those who have passed away, especially those in purgatory, as they undergo purification before entering heaven. 

Both days offer a profound opportunity for reflection, prayer, and connection with the broader community of believers, both living and deceased.

Mathematics

The Australian Mathematics Competition (AMC) is the nation’s longest running and most esteemed mathematics contest, and it involved using a variety of skills and processes that enable individuals to tackle and solve mathematical challenges effectively. Some key components were: 

1. Understanding the problem and determining what is required to find the solution. 
2. Answering the question using chosen strategy in a methodical way.  
3. Checking the reasonableness of the answer.   
4. Problem-solving often requires thinking outside the box and approaching problems from different angles. Creativity can lead to innovative solutions that might not be immediately obvious. 
5. Persistence and patience are crucial as they encourage continued effort and exploration of different strategies until a solution is found. 
6. Effective problem-solving requires a solid understanding of various mathematical concepts and the ability to apply them in different contexts. 

By developing these skills, students enhanced their ability to solve a wide range of mathematical problems, both in academic settings and in real-world situations. 

In early August, students nominated to participate in a 75-minute competition featuring 30 distinct problems. These problems, crafted by leading educators and academics, aimed to challenge and enhance students’ mathematical problem-solving abilities. The questions covered core curriculum areas, including basic arithmetic, fractions & ratios, algebra & pre-algebra, geometry, measurement, statistics & probability. Today, we will be recognising the students who have participated in this competition and their willingness to develop their problem-solving skills beyond the classroom.

Arts and Performance news

The energy is electric in the Arts and Performance Department as students prepare for one of the most exciting events of the year, auditions for the 2026 combined musical production of Catch Me If You Can, presented by St Mary's College and St Saviour's College! 

Auditions will be held Tuesday and Wednesday of Week 5, from 3:30pm - 5:30pm, where students will be showcasing their singing, acting, and dancing talents. But more than just technical skill, the audition panel will be looking for students who demonstrate a willingness to take direction, take creative risks, and give everything a go - qualities that truly bring a performance to life. 

The audition panel includes: 

• Ms Eylece Blaikie (Director, SMC) 

• Mrs Jennifer Potter (Musical Director, SSC) 

• Mr Chris Thompson (Musical Director, SMC) 

• Ms Elizabeth Bennett (Choreographer, SSC) 

• Ms Shari Pauli (Choreographer, SMC) 

Students have been working hard in preparation, learning their dance audition piece with Ms Bennett, and rehearsing their song with Mrs Potter and our talented repetiteur, Mrs Kylie Parker. Callbacks will take place in Week 6, with role announcements in Week 7. The final performances are scheduled for 4 - 6 June 2026 at the Edmund Rice Cultural Centre, St Mary’s College - mark your calendars! 

Meanwhile, the choir is in full swing, preparing to lead the TCS Principals' Forum Mass and Prayers in Week 5, perform at the Academic Awards in Week 6, and provide music for the Boarding Closure Mass. They’ll finish the year with the Christmas Liturgy in Week 8 and a festive performance at Christmas Wonderland in Queen’s Park on Sunday 7 December at 8:30pm. 

The rock band has also been rehearsing steadily under the guidance of Mr Rhody Nilon, aiming to host a lunchtime concert in Week 8 to celebrate their musical journey this year. They’ll also join the choir for a joyful Christmas sing-along to close out the Christmas Liturgy. 

Our Dance Troupe, under the expert guidance of Ms Bennett, continues to dazzle and hopes to perform on assembly later this term. 

It’s a vibrant and busy time in the Arts and Performance world, and we extend our heartfelt thanks to the dedicated teachers and support officers who make these opportunities possible. Their passion and commitment allow our students to shine, grow, and express themselves through the arts.

Library news

The end of year is nigh! 

We have reached that time of year 
When everyone begins to fear 
Those dreaded resources recall 
Asking for it all. 
Please if you have finished with it 
Send it back bit by bit 
Appreciated it would be  
And happy faces you will see 
End of Week 8 is the goal 
Any later will take its toll. 
Stocktake we must do 
For all to be ready for you! 

With optimism in our hearts  
from the library staff. 

The one time of year everything must be back. And with me on long service leave for the latter half of Term 4, I wanted to start the process of information now. Please think about when you are finishing up at school this year and ensure your resources are returned to the library.  

Yr 10s and 11s will be able to keep their textbooks over the break if they like. 

There is no borrowing over the Christmas break as we would like all resources returned to their home in the library so they can be checked over and audited for the year. 

Overdue and recall notices will be sent out in a couple of weeks and will continue until the end of term. These serve as a reminder to students to return all their resources. Students can access what they have out through our Library Web App﷟HYPERLINK "https://au.accessit.online/STS03/#!dashboard" – please encourage your child/ren to check what they have out and when the due date is.  

Go to the link above, sign in using the Single Sign on blue button.  

It should bring you to your loan list, if not, you can go to your name and go to My Borrowing Details.  

If you have finished with the resource, please return it straight away. Stay tuned-in through our upcoming newsletters for activities to keep yourselves reading over the Christmas break BUT check out our Global Media and literacy dashboard and Halloween dashboard. We will also be changing to the Remembrance Day dashboard in early November. 

What’s happening in the library 

All Hallow’s Eve, a special time in our calendar. Commercialism has us knowing it more commonly these days as Halloween. All Hallow’s Eve is the day before All Saints’ Day. This is a Holy Evening for remembering the dead, especially saints. Today we see it publicised as Halloween, a time to dress up, go out and enjoy a community atmosphere of inclusion. Come into the library and see our display, including books about recipes, stories about Halloween and horror… 

Origami Club is underway!  

Tuesdays in the library at first break – Ms Freeman has organised a different project each week. Its been a great start – look forward to more attendees as we continue! 

New Books and Graphics in the Library 

From the Teacher Librarian (TL) corner…  

Last newsletter I started the discussion that libraries were more than book repositories, and this week I would like to continue with this direction. I discussed the idea of libraries as a safe and inclusive space, and a place of supportive resourcing and activities. This week I want to talk about libraries being a place of personalised interaction and support, as well as a place that can provide calm and quiet areas of being. 

1.Personalised interaction and support 

 We are often uniquely positioned to know students individually. By getting to know our students in this personal and individual manner, we can provide tailored guidance, recommend specific resources and create a more supportive and understanding environment. It is the power of these one-to-one connections that makes the library such a special and unique environment for students. We are that friendly face before school, at breaks and even after school for those students needing to stay at school. We can direct students to reading resources, curriculum resources and provide specific research aid. 

2. Calm and quiet areas 

We often try and zone our library as it is a place that provides space for all students, those who want a place to work, those who want a place to chat with friends to those who want a calm and quiet area. It is the provision of these spaces that supports students’ wellbeing. It supports students’ emotional health and can help with creativity, self-esteem and wellbeing, making the library an essential requirement of schools. We have the ability to ‘see’ each student. 

And so the library can be a powerful influence through a well-curated collection and thoughtfully managed space to affect the lives of students. We are here to enhance the learning experiences by prioritising elements of wellbeing; it is all about the nurturing of the whole student and ensuring they have the space and support to thrive academically and emotionally. The library as a physical space with our library staff, support this as does our collection – to enable students to see how to respond to situations, react to conversations and interact with people – they see this when they read, when they visit the library, when they partake in the library space.

Lina Haji Shines in Dual Work Experience Placements at Ozcare and Mary’s Family Pharmacy 

We’re thrilled to celebrate the achievements of Lina Haji, who recently completed two highly successful work experience placements - at Ozcare and Mary’s Family Pharmacy. 

At Ozcare, Lina demonstrated compassion, professionalism, and a strong work ethic while supporting aged care services. She quickly adapted to the team environment, showing initiative and a genuine interest in client wellbeing. Her ability to communicate with both staff and residents made a lasting impression.

Celebrating the Champions Behind Our SBA Program 

In Week 2, our school community came together to express heartfelt gratitude to the remarkable employers, trainers, and mentors who make the School-Based Apprentice and Trainee (SBA) program such a success. 

At our special Employer Thank You Breakfast, we celebrated the achievements of our talented school-based apprentices and trainees, whose dedication and growth continue to inspire. We also honoured the unwavering support of the employers and trainers who guide them - professionals who generously share their time, expertise, and encouragement to help shape bright futures. Each apprentice and trainee’s journey is a testament to the power of mentorship, opportunity, and faith in young people’s potential. 

To everyone involved in the SBA program: thank you. Your impact reaches far beyond the workplace, helping build a generation of skilled, confident, and compassionate individuals.

Hike for the Homeless

Hike for Homeless 2025 – St Saviour’s Steps Up 

On a hot and dusty Saturday, a determined team from St Saviour’s College took on the challenge of the Hike for Homeless in Toowoomba. With four students, six staff, and many supportive families joining the effort, our small but mighty community raised an incredible $870, earning us the seventh highest fundraising team in the region! 

The hike was no easy feat. The hills were steep, the trails slippery, and the sun relentless. But every step taken was powered by purpose and compassion. Our team pushed through the gruelling conditions with grit and good humour, united by a shared commitment to supporting those in need. 

All funds raised go directly to The Basement Soup Kitchen, a vital local service providing meals, support, and dignity to people experiencing homelessness. 

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who walked, donated, cheered, and shared in this journey. Your generosity and spirit made a real difference. 

Let’s keep walking together; towards hope, community, and change.
