Last week we celebrated International Women’s Day at MBC with a breakfast and keynote presentation from ultramarathon runner and mental health advocate, Jacqui Bell. The event was a sell-out in these COVID normal times, and we were privileged to hear Jacqui share her powerful message of grit and resilience. She told the story of a girl destined to succeed in the world of Tennis, only to find herself managing depression, anxiety, and drug addiction. After an attack in Bali which led to gruesome injuries and two weeks in the hospital, Jacqui was determined to turn her pain into a higher purpose, and she found strength in facing her fears headfirst, so turning a personal crisis into a significant opportunity.  Jacqui spoke of how she harnessed the power of setting goals and discovering her purpose, as tools to overcome adversity and to build her resilience. Challenge certainly brought great change in her life. Jacqui is now the youngest person in the world to run an ultra-marathon on all 7 continents and is a proud ambassador for the White Cloud Foundation – having raised over $25,000 for mental health awareness.

In Week 6, I was also privileged to celebrate the life of another determined and impressive woman, at the memorial service for Margaret Hill – MBC ‘old girl’ and ex-member of the MBC Board of Governors. Margaret Hill (nee Rogers) attended MBC as a boarder from the age of 6 and was a proud student of the College. After travelling post school, she took up a role in Ansett Airlines and held some very senior roles in the company for 40 years. Yet, her love for MBC never left her and she dedicated 26 years to the Old Girls’ Association and 10 years in the role of a Governor; in the latter role she was involved in moving the College to its current site on the Wondall Road campus. In his eulogy Mr Waller, ex-Headmaster, spoke of a woman who faced obstacles with courage and hope and a formidable spirit. She was a woman not afraid to challenge the status quo and we at MBC are in her debt. 

Each year, International Women's Day also marks a call to action; and this year its theme #choose to challenge seems particularly significant. In the last two weeks the media has highlighted the alarming and disturbing extent of peer-on-peer sexual assault in school aged children across the nation. A petition started by former Kambala student Chanel Contos, unveiled hundreds of former Sydney schoolgirls’ allegations of sexual assault at the hands of their male peers. Since then, more than 4000 graphic allegations of sexual assault have been shared and this outpouring of testimonies across the nation must surely be the fuel for us all to empathise with victims and question why this occurs in our society. It is time for us all to challenge such behaviour to ensure that collectively we bring about cultural and structural change.

At MBC there is much done to educate our students about consent, but like all schools we constantly review our programmes, and know we can and should do more. What is clear however, is that we cannot do this alone; it is only together, as a community, that we can ensure greater understanding of consent and so affect change in attitudes. Consent is just one aspect of kindness, empathy, and respectful relationships and we all need to have more direct, unambiguous conversations and statements about consent. Parents also need to start having conversations around consent sooner rather than later, as some teens experience their first sexual encounter well before the subject matter is discussed. It is not enough for parents or carers to assume that your teenager knows or understands what consent means and the implications surrounding it. It is important for them to learn about boundaries to enable them to respect themselves and their partners. A Special Report has been prepared by SchoolTV in response to this issue and offers parents guidance around normalising the topic of consent to ensure your teenager experiences healthy and respectful relationships. The link is below, along with a resource we use at MBC, which is a more light-hearted but very effective comparison of sexual consent to making someone a cup of tea. https://schooltv.me/wellbeing_news/special-report-conversation-consent

It is clear as adults we must teach and role model respectful relationships to the children and adolescents around us. Our Positive Behaviours Policy and Procedures is a document which endeavours to guide us all on how to interact with courtesy, respect, and kindness and how to resolve conflict or tension in an appropriate and restorative manner. Briony Scott - Principal Of Wenona School in Sydney - put this beautifully last week in an article in the Sydney Morning Herald;

“Young people learn by watching. They look for cues as to how to behave in situations where they have little experience. They listen to the words, they watch the finger pointing, and they know what behaviour is validated, and what behaviour is ignored. They learn how to be good people by watching adults and learning what matters.”

Moreover, at MBC we talk about consent every year, and it is well covered in subjects like our Positive Minds Programme in secondary and in health and physical education. We have guest speakers (Bri Lee, Michelle Hill, Paul Dillon and we are about to welcome Melinda Tankard Resist later this month), who are specialists in discussing consent in our sexualised world. By Year 12, we have explored sexual violence, domestic violence, and pornography. Only last week, our Deputy Head of Secondary (Students) addressed this current debate in an assembly presentation. (Click here) Thus, may I encourage all of our parents to have age-appropriate conversations about sex and sexuality with your daughters; these are fundamentally important topics. If we, together in partnership, do not teach our students about respectful relationships, sex, and sexuality then the mainstream media and the internet will. 

The young women coming forward have shown incredible courage, and are rightly demanding action, for behaviours which have no place in our world today. They need our support.

Gloria Steinem, world-renowned feminist, journalist and activist said, "The story of women's struggle for equality belongs to no single feminist, nor to any one organization, but to the collective efforts of all who care about human rights." 

We are all challenged by this recent debate on consent and collectively, we all have a role to play to change this world into a better, fairer, and more inclusive place. There is urgent work to do.

We have a very inclusive student leadership programme in Year 6. All our students take on a leadership role and with that comes responsibility. Our assembly last week was a reflection of the many opportunities for our girls to demonstrate student agency and have the courage to take action within our community. The fact that so many reports from our student leaders took place on International Women’s Day was a testament to our students feeling empowered as young women in the making! With the theme for 2021 of Choose to Challenge, many of our leadership teams took this onboard. Below are some examples of actions our Year 6 Leaders are taking. We are so proud of them and thank the teacher mentors for their support of our student leaders.

Service Leaders - Red Cross Project:

The Service and Fundraising Leaders have planned a free dress day for the Primary School on Wednesday, 24 March (Week 9). The girls have been asked to wear red and bring in a gold coin donation to raise funds for the Red Cross. They have collaborated with the House Leaders and will be running lunch time activities on the day, so girls are asked to wear a hat and running shoes if they want to join. Year 1-3 activities will be in the LB Hall and Year 4-6 will be on the oval, with two house leader groups in each area running the activities. A great collaborative initiative!

SRC Leaders - Our Story Dog: Popcorn

from Niamh, Sarah and Lyla.

We are very excited to share a new initiative in the Primary School. Last year the SRC leaders shared feedback about their home learning experiences with the lockdown, as a result of COVID-19. One of the most positive things about learning from home was the opportunity to spend more time with pets. The SRC leaders investigated and discovered there are great benefits for our happiness and wellbeing when we spend time with animals.

The SRC leaders started exploring ways to have a pet at school. This is a common request in the SRC box too. The health, safety and allergy considerations were carefully addressed, and we found a solution that also helps students to become more confident readers. At assembly, we introduced our new Story Dog, her name is Popcorn.

Story Dogs is based on the successful American literacy program, Reading Education Assistance Dogs (R.E.A.D.). Reading sessions take place in a quiet area of the school grounds, such as the library or outside the classroom. A reading session is approximately 20 minutes long, where each child is one-on-one with the dog team. Books are chosen to suit the student´s reading level. For more information, please follow the link to the Story Dogs website.

Popcorn belongs to the Hart family and Mrs Hart is a trained Story Dog owner. Popcorn LOVES being read to and really enjoys children’s books. Some lucky MBC girls will be asked to read stories to Popcorn each week on Friday morning. We are very grateful and thank the Hart family for sharing Popcorn with us.

Our Science and Environment Leaders took action to raise awareness about Clean Up Australia Day

Our Archive Leaders shared photos of MBC past Swimming Carnivals to celebrate the Andrews Cup Swimming and Schools with Pools event this week.

From Armelle, Sophie, Scarlett and Zoe:

Coming up to the swimming carnival we wondered what the first swimming carnival was like, and we found out that for a while only secondary could participate in swimming. This is because some boarders from the country had never seen oceans or pools before. Some girls were even unable to swim! We looked through old articles and photos and discovered that there wasn’t just a swim team there was in-fact a lifesaving team as well.

During the 1940s, the primary school started to participate in the swim programme. The girls really enjoyed swimming but got bored of having to catch the bus to the Manly Baths on what they called ‘the old Butterbox’. The swimming programme got bigger and bigger with more and more girls wanting to join, so in 1991, well after the Wondall Road Campus was built, the school sat down and started plans to build the pool, and they decided to name the pool after Mr. John Mason.

Did you know that the Vorgee (v-or-g) clock down at the pool has been there since 1991, the year that the pool was built? The pool was renovated in 1997 and 1999. We found out sun safety was not a ‘big thing’ back then, some girls have no hats. We also noticed that the swimming togs and uniforms are very different to our togs and uniforms now… and if you look closely, there is no grandstand! Imagine having to stand at the swimming carnival!

Our Drama Leaders led a very powerful segment using poetry to build a deeper understanding of International Women’s Day:

A Library Leaders initiative was shared to raise awareness about gender stereotypes:

Our STEM Leaders are leading lunchtime challenges to build confidence in math, science and engineering for girls.

Our Cultural Awareness Leaders highlighted Chinese New Year celebrations:

Staff News

We would like to share the lovely news of the birth of Ms Kate Bruschweiler’s baby. Eleanor June Scharf was born on February 11.

This year the Primary girls celebrated International Women’s Day by reflecting upon, and recording information about, their female role models. 

Students from Years 1-3 created their own role model booklet where they recorded a description of their role model’s attributes and detailed what made them so special. One class even created an iMovie where each student detailed their role model’s unique features. Teachers also shared images from the photobook, Strong is the New Pretty.

The girls enjoyed reflecting on what made these images so powerful and how they often contradicted the stereotypes we often see in the media. I encourage you to view these for yourselves at  http://strongisthenewpretty.org/ as a starting point for conversation at home with your girls.

Last week the STEAM Leaders held our first Steam Ahead challenge and it was a great success! Students were invited to create the longest piece of paper from only one piece of paper! There were over 25 girls from Years 4-6 who came along and gave it a go! Everyone did a terrific job at working out how to create the longest piece of paper they could. Some found it frustrating, and some found it calming! 

We would like to give special mention to the following students

• London, Lily and Lyla whose paper ended up being 1280cm, which was the longest piece of paper completed in Spark Space in one day.
• Caitlin, whose paper ended up being 909cm which was the longest piece of paper in Spark Space over two days.
• Kimby and Janice, whose paper ended up being 665cm which was the longest piece of paper in Year 4.
• Louisa, whose paper ended up being 1550cm which was the longest piece of paper completed elsewhere. 

This week we will hold our next challenge called The Tallest Tower. 

Each year at Moreton Bay College we celebrate Founders’ Day and the work of the Greene sisters. We are especially privileged in 2021 to learn more about our heritage and history as we celebrate our 120th year. At our Founders’ Day service each year, Mrs Ellis leads the Collage Chorale in singing These are the Woman I Come From, by Bonnie Keen and Tori Taff. This moving rendition is one that makes me personally think about the women that each and every student has come from.

The song was written as a tribute to all of the strong women in our lives that have shaped and inspired us, and it was recorded as part of a project called “Sisters - Songs of Friendship, Joy and Encouragement for Women”, released in 1994.

The opening lyrics state:

They are faces in photographs, heads all held high

Not afraid to look life in the eye

They were women with backbone, keepers of the flame

With a spirit even hard times couldn’t tame

And I know that this same blood is in me

And I meet their gaze one by one

Eyes strong and clear, I still feel them near

These are the women I come from.

In the week of International Women’s Day, it is important to remember what an incredible gift it is to be a student at Moreton Bay College. There are times we can forget that others are not as fortunate and are not blessed with the same educational opportunity. Globally there is still much work to do to ensure that all children, including females, are able to attend formal schooling.

Here in Australia, we have seen the international higher education gender bias trend reversed. More women attend university than men; however, this is not replicated in the work force. Currently in Australia, men earn 13.4% more on average than woman (Australian Government, Gender Workforce Equity, 2021). The Australian Government, as part of a Workplace Gender Equity project (2021) discovered that women are underrepresented in key decision-making roles across almost all industries in the Australian workforce. 

2019-20 data shows that while women make up half of the private sector workforce (50.5%), women make up only:

• 32.5% of key management positions
• 28.1% of directors
• 18.3% of CEOs
• 14.6% of board chairs.

What does this mean for students? As an individual who attends our incredible College, students need to consider what is their first priority – and that is to be a student.

Being a student should be the number one priority. I am often asked, “how do I manage my schoolwork, because I have a very busy co-curricular life, part time work, social life etc.” It is at this time that I explain the importance of a scholarly approach.

What is meant by a scholarly approach?

A scholarly approach is one where students take the driver’s seat in the race that is education. They need to have full control of what they are doing, how they are doing it and reflect accordingly for a life-long learner approach. Teachers, parents and friends are the pit crew helping then in the learning race, however we cannot do the learning for the student. At times, learning is hard, and that is ok – it’s meant to be hard. When students work at something, challenge themselves and strive to be their best – they can be proud of the outcomes.

When we talk about a scholarly approach, one must consider:

• being organised,
• start work and assessment as soon as they are received,
• ask questions when clarification is required,
• be brave in conversations with teachers and other students,
• use feedback for future focused growth,
• approach learning with agility and curiosity,
• be willing and open to a collaborative process,
• be dedicated in time given to complete task, both in and outside of the classroom,
• watch the news and/or read the paper
• be prepared to work across term breaks (especially in the Senior years)  

We are seeing a trend where students are asking their parents for assistance with their assessment tasks, and parents in turn are contacting teachers when they do not understand an aspect of the task. Students are the individuals in the classroom being taught how to approach a task, completing targeted activities, writing drafts, having teacher conferences and are provided with question time. Now is the time for students to step up, this is their time to take control. If a teacher sets reading for homework, we expect it to be done. If your teacher expects a novel to be read – students need to complete this. All the little things add up to assist students in being the best that they can be. This is what we want for each and every one of our learners.  

A scholarly approach will help students achieve their goals. I know that our Moreton Bay College students will have the power and capacity to have an impact on the gender gap in Australia and internationally.

I want you to consider who are the women that you have come from. Thank them, have a conversation, ask how they have achieved their success. In doing this you will be assisting students to take a scholarly approach to their learning, because they are in the driver’s seat of education and succusses post-schooling.

I would like to leave you with some final lines from the aforementioned song, in an effort to start the reflective process:

I know what I’m made of, and where I belong

‘Cause these are the women I come from These are the women you come fro

Please find the latest Careers Bulletin here.

There is a famous scene in Return of the Jedi where Luke Skywalker is practising the Force by lifting his X-Wing out of the swamps of Dagobah. In response to Luke’s hesitancy, Yoda says “Do. Or do not. There is no try.”, which is a great line that speaks to the importance of self-confidence and a positive attitude; but I wonder how helpful this actually is to someone who is trying something new? 

Does self-belief always lead straight to success? 

In the context of learning and new ideas, being willing to just ‘try’ has great benefit. Trying is a willingness to give something a go – it doesn’t need to pay too much attention to results and doesn’t necessarily care about success or failure or perfection. When simply ‘trying something’ is considered to have value of itself, then success and failure become part of the process rather than the goal. 

This is particularly true in musical performance, which is rarely, if ever, objectively perfect. Therefore, a musician must be comfortable with the idea that no matter how well they play, there is still room for improvement. They must be satisfied to be unsatisfied. This is a good thing as it encourages us to keep striving – it gives us goals while allowing us to focus on being ‘our best’, not ‘the best’. 

In this context, trying is brave, it is wondering, and it is agile. To put it another way, we don’t learn very much if we are so concerned with ‘doing things right’ that we stay within the confines of our current knowledge and experience – to learn something new we need to go exploring beyond what we already know. In learning, I wonder if we should actually pay more attention to Bilbo Baggins’ The Riddle of Strider, where he writes ‘Not all those who wander are lost….’ 

Musical Inspiration

We are lucky enough to have four Music Captains at MBC, which gives us two more opportunities to be inspired. Here are some performances suggested by Lily Kunin and Maddy Ryan-Kerr. 

Listening to Sign of the Times by Harry Styles, Lily says “I really like how the emotion overrides any technical errors and the audience is completely engaged the whole time. There is a good balance between the energy of the song and the depth of the lyrics, while Harry has a commanding stage presence. I feel that I can learn from this as a songwriter, as I admire how he embodies his song and is completely moved by the music.” 

Lily also likes Jane Monheit’s performance of Cheek to Cheek, because “she makes singing sound easy while the groove of the arrangement immediately puts the audience in a good mood. She showcases different registers of her vocal range, keeping the audience engaged and excited to see what she will do next. When I performed this song, I took great inspiration from Monheit, especially regarding the improvisation section and the scatting.” 

Maddy selected Chaconne in G Minor, performed by violin virtuoso Jascha Heifitz as she feels he “creates a great tone and quality of sound while also playing very expressively”. 

Have you enjoyed hearing about the musicians who inspire our music captains? I hope you have listed to all the recordings! It’s been great to see inspiration drawn from such a variety of sources and styles – from classical violinists to pop singers, and from jazz musicians to rock artists performing operatic arias. While we all have our own preferred musical styles and genres, whatever we like to listen to it seems like it is often the artistry of the performers, both in skill and expression, that really connects and engages us.

On March 3, 100 MBC swimmers walked into Chandler Aquatic Centre for the 2021 QGSSSA Swimming Championships. Although the pink sea had to adapt and cheer via livestream instead of in the grandstands, the team’s performance was propelled forward by this new form of enthusiasm. The team’s hard work, passion and commitment throughout the swimming season paid off, with MBC placing 2^nd in the Molly Gould aggregate points Cup and 2^nd in the Sheena Dyason Percentage Cup. Adding to these final placements were the 13 years and 17/18 years age groups placing 2^nd in their divisions, the 12 years and 15 years age groups placing 3^rd, and the 14- and 16-years age groups placing a commendable 7^th and 6^th respectively. This is a tremendous result which reflects the efforts of each and every member of the Swim team.
