3 Key Messages Principal This Annual School Report for Marian Catholic College represents a snapshot of the life of the college in Marian Catholic College is a living faith community of students, parents, staff and pastors that explicitly witnesses Catholic beliefs, values and traditions. As such the college is a local expression of the universal Catholic Church and shares in its evangelising mission. Marian Catholic College is a learning community that values the interdependent core activities of learning and teaching and strives to create a vibrant learning environment which is safe, challenging, collaborative and built on mutual respect. It is an environment which enables members of the college community to access the knowledge, attitudes, values, skills and love of learning necessary to realise their human potential and live full and productive lives. The college promotes the development of positive relationships; mutual respect; an understanding of individual and communal rights; and responsibilities and practices which promote inclusiveness and acceptance of individual difference. Parent Marian Catholic College enjoys a strong and effective relationship with the parent community. Parents are welcome at the college and are involved in a variety of ways in the daily life of the college. Parents are kept informed of the activities of the college through regular newsletters, s, Short Message Service (SMS), information evenings, report nights, phone calls and interviews. There has also been significant contact with parents in relation to the 1:1 ipad program. The Parent Education Network (PEN) committee engaged a variety of expert speakers to provide relevant, up-to-date information for the benefit of both students and parents in This year s presentations included: Process Communication: understanding patterns of behaviour and how to help your child Positive Uses of Technology and Young People Staying Safe Online Helping Your Kids Succeed Teenagers and Alcohol: how much influence do parents really have? The PEN committee continued to collaborate with the Marian community and guest speakers in an attempt to address a variety of difficult issues currently affecting our students. Student Opportunity, encouragement and achievement are words I would use to describe student life at Marian Catholic College. With extra-curricular activities from a wide range of disciplines including representative sports such as Hills Zone Sports Association (HZSA) and Parramatta Diocesan Secondary School Sports Council (PDSSSC), performing arts such as Marian Catholic College Arts Festival (MCCAF) and musicals, public speaking and mock trial, students from all year groups are provided with many practically educational and beneficial opportunities that nicely complement their individual growth and development. Furthermore, community service opportunities such as Country Fair, Vinnies Van and Christmas, Winter and Lenten appeals; many leadership roles; offerings of extension subjects; and learning support services all help Marian Catholic College students to reach their maximum potential and enhance their overall learning experience. With the constant support and encouragement of dedicated teachers, peers and other staff members, our students can easily develop and express themselves, as they find a safe place to belong and form life-long friendships. Marian Catholic College, Kenthurst Page 2

4 In a school with a strong sense of community, students are encouraged to adopt and put into practice, key Catholic values in everyday life. The importance of faith and prayer is emphasised through whole-school masses and liturgies, as well as Year 11 and 12 retreats and Years 7 to 10 reflection days. The many achievements and talents of the students are showcased and celebrated at many different events such as school assemblies and presentation night. Their aptitude, however, can also be seen in their behaviour and camaraderie from day-to-day. One need only look to the journey of the students to see the successful and well-accomplished young adults they become at the conclusion of their secondary education - something that can only be attributed to their time, experiences and achievements at Marian Catholic College.

5 Who we are History of the school Marian Catholic College was founded in 1988 which was proclaimed a Marian Year of the Church. Thus, the college was called Marian Catholic College and adopted Mary as its patron. The college motto, Walk With Christ, reflects the journey Mary made every day with Jesus and is reflected in the journey we make every day as individuals, and as a community, with the God who loves us. Location/drawing area Located in Kenthurst, Marian Catholic College serves the parish communities of St Benedict's, Arcadia; Our Lady of the Rosary, Kellyville; St Madeleine Sophie, Kenthurst; and Our Lady of the Angels, Rouse Hill.

7 Catholic Identity and Religious Education Prayer, Liturgical Life and Faith Experiences The College Community has a strong prayer life. Morning prayer, prepared and led by staff and students, is based on gospel readings using the process of Lectio Divina. Prayer is used at all student and staff meetings and college assemblies. The Angelus is also integrated into the daily life of the college, and the Rosary is prayed daily in May and every Friday. The liturgical life of the college is reflected in Eucharistic celebrations to open the school year, on Marian Day, induction of our college leaders, and to mark the graduation of our Year 12 students. Other liturgical celebrations mark the significant events in the Church's year: Ash Wednesday, Holy Week, Easter, Pentecost, the Feast of the Assumption and Advent. All students attend the weekly parish mass and Reconciliation in their Religious Education classes on a rostered basis, as well as enjoying reflection days in the junior years, and retreats in their senior years. The junior reflection days are age-appropriate opportunities for students to reflect on their relationships with their family, friends and God. The senior retreat experiences are rich opportunities for the students to reflect on their own personal journey of faith, the direction of their life, and relationship with God. Many senior students volunteer as catechists in state primary schools. Social Justice As a Catholic community, we strive to raise awareness of local and global justice issues. We encourage all members of our community to be compassionate to the needs of others and to have an informed view of social justice issues. As a school community, each term we focus our education and support of a few issues and assist through fundraising for one charity each term. Student leaders assist in the selection of the charities that we support. In 2014, the following projects were supported by the school community: Caritas, St Vincent de Paul (Winter Clothing Appeal; Door Knock Appeal, Christmas Hamper Appeal), Vinnies Van, and the Matthew Talbot Clothes and Hygiene product collection. School home and parish partnerships The college enjoys a strong partnership with the parent community and the pastors from Our Lady of the Rosary, Kellyville; St Benedict s, Arcadia; Our Lady of the Angels, Rouse Hill; and St Madeleine Sophie, Kenthurst, who fully support the spiritual, liturgical and pastoral life of the college community staff, students and parents. They work individually and collectively to minister to the community throughout the year and are involved in the enrolment process for new students wishing to join the college community. The priests meet as a group with the college executive at various times throughout the year to discuss parish and college issues and to plan and prepare for liturgical celebration of the Sacraments of Eucharist and Reconciliation. The priests also attend part of the senior student retreats. Parents, as the first educators of their children, work in close partnership with the school. The school enjoys positive and constructive two-way communication with parents as we work together to navigate through the many personal, social, health and academic challenges teenage students face during their years in high school. Religious Education Students in the junior years follow the Diocesan Religious Education syllabus, Sharing Our Story. All senior students study the Board of Studies endorsed course, Catholic Studies, or the Board of Studies developed course, Studies of Religion 1 Unit or 2 Unit. Professional Learning of staff in Religious Education Staff professional learning in Religious Education has occurred in a variety of forums including through whole-school staff workshops. All staff undertook training in using Scripture in the classroom. Two staff included Higher School Certificate (HSC) marking in their professional development. There have also been a number of staff who have completed their accreditation to teach Religious Education. Marian Catholic College, Kenthurst Page 6

8 Learning and Teaching National Assessment Program - Literacy and Numeracy (NAPLAN) Students in Year 3, Year 5, Year 7 and Year 9 across Australia participated in National Assessment Program Literacy and Numeracy (NAPLAN) in May The purpose of this test is to provide information to parents and teachers about the achievements of students in aspects of Literacy and Numeracy. The test provides a measure of the student s performance against established standards and against other students in Australia. Each year the results are analysed by the school to inform teaching with a view to improving student performance. The Commonwealth Government sets minimum acceptable standards for literacy, numeracy, reading, writing, grammar, punctuation and spelling at particular ages. These are referred to as national minimum standards. Student performance in NAPLAN in our school is compared to these standards. The percentages of students achieving at or above these national minimum standards, and the percentages of students in the top three bands are reported in the table below. Year 7 Year 9 NAPLAN RESULTS 2014 % of students at or above national minimum standard % of students in top three bands School Australia School Australia Grammar and Punctuation Literacy Reading Writing Spelling Numeracy NAPLAN RESULTS 2014 % of students at or above national minimum standard % of students in top three bands School Australia School Australia Grammar and Punctuation Literacy Reading Writing Spelling Numeracy A comparison of the Marian Catholic College NAPLAN data can be made with both the national standards and state standards. In relation to the national standards the college data far exceeds the national averages for the percentage of students in the top three bands in all areas of Literacy and Numeracy. When comparing the percentage of students at or above national Marian Catholic College, Kenthurst Page 7

These results are a testimony to the hard work by staff to improve both student engagement and the work ethic of our students. Marian Catholic College, Kenthurst Page 8

10 School curriculum The curriculum of the college is designed to be diverse, balanced and appropriate for a range of abilities, while challenging each student to enjoy learning and to succeed. The college offers a wide range of subjects in Stages 4, 5, and 6, including the Higher School Certificate (HSC) study options and additional opportunities to participate in vocational subjects. In 2014, 37 HSC courses were offered at the senior level including Board of Studies Determined and Endorsed courses. In addition, the college offered Vocational Education and Training (VET) courses in Hospitality, Building and Construction, Entertainment and Sport, Fitness and Recreation. At the junior level, Marian Catholic College offered a wide variety of elective subjects to cater for a range of student interests including Agriculture, Commerce, Industrial Technology Timber, Industrial Technology Metal, Industrial Technology Automotive, Information and Software Technology, History, Dance, Drama, Music, Physical Activity and Sport Studies (PASS), Textiles Technology, Visual Arts, and Food Technology. A variety of transition and alternative programs catered for the needs of students transitioning from primary to secondary school; students completing the Record of School Achievement (ROSA); transitioning to the Higher School Certificate or Technical and Further Education (TAFE) and employment; transitioning from Stage 4 to Stage 5 and choosing elective subjects; Project-Based Learning in some subject areas; Year 11 Learning Conference and career classes; and activities for Years 10, 11 and 12. In addition, the school provides opportunities for students to engage in a wide range of activities designed to meet their developing needs, interests and abilities. Initiatives to promote respect and responsibility The college actively promotes respect and responsibility in all aspects of the daily life of the learning community. The pastoral care structure is Year-based and is supported for each class by a homeroom teacher, Year leader of learning, learning support teachers, teachers aides and a school counsellor. The importance of building life-giving relationships based on respect, tolerance, forgiveness, kindness, consideration and generosity is emphasised. Any form of bullying or racism is not tolerated. The college has a 'hands off' rule which is clearly explained to students and monitored by staff. The student diary contains two important sections: Catholic Values and Values for Australian Schooling which highlight the importance of respect and responsibility. Students are encouraged to respect the rights of other students to learn. In dealing with student management and disciplinary matters every opportunity is taken to encourage students to make good decisions; to be honest and to accept responsibility for their own actions. All students are encouraged and supported to develop self-discipline. As a Catholic faith community, students are encouraged to be of service to others. Some of the ways in which it has done this is by involving students in a wide range of community appeals such as Red Cross and Salvation Army; 'Vinnies Van'; St Vincent de Paul Winter Appeal; St Vincent de Paul Door Knock; Caritas Project Compassion; 40 Hour Famine; Christmas hampers for the needy in the community; and visiting nursing homes. Students are also encouraged to support each other and the staff by participating in college community activities, especially by acting as reader/writers for other students during examination and assessment blocks, and as school leaders and peer support leaders. Year 10 peer support leaders train to run small group sessions, work with Year 7 groups and assist with the Year 7 camp.
