The advent season has just commenced and we are entering a season of waiting in anticipation. The Latin root of the word “advent” means “coming.” For four Sundays before Christmas, we capture both the longing and the hope for the coming of our Saviour. Advent marks the beginning of the church calendar and is a time of preparation and anticipation for the coming of Christ. In the Lutheran church, there are many traditions observed during Advent that help Christians to both prepare for and anticipate His coming. Practices associated with Advent include keeping an Advent calendar, lighting Advent candles, praying an Advent daily devotional, as well as other ways of preparing for Christmas. In the lead up to Christmas, it is easy to get drawn into the frantic gift shopping and stress to get everything right for the festive season. Amidst the business, I hope that you find time to rest and remember the true meaning of Christmas.

The end of the school year is always a very busy time with a flurry of activity; presentation events, Formals, the Graduation Chapel, leadership elections, the Nativity Play, Christmas Concert, Bump Up Day, activity days, and the list goes on. And, amidst the busyness of events, there are assessments, marking and planning for the year ahead.

We are excited about the year ahead. I have heard from many of the Year 6 students about their excitement to have the opportunity to be leaders for another year. They are looking forward to taking part in the rotation subjects and having a completely refurbished learning space, among other things.

We are looking forward to the introduction of the Wellbeing Hub and the Vertical Homegroup system in Secondary School. Staff have already been busy planning for activities to build a stronger House spirit within our College.

As the school year has just concluded, it is also a time for our community members to rest. As we reflect on 2021, we will acknowledge that it was a busy year, full of ups and downs. We will reflect on our ups and consider ways to improve our downs. Most importantly, we will acknowledge the many reasons we have to celebrate the achievements of our students.

I wish all of you a blessed Christmas with your families. Enjoy as you move into the season of rest, laughter, relaxation.

May God’s blessings shine on you this Christmas as you remember and celebrate the birth of Jesus with friends and family.

Whilst it is important for us to have the break from the routines of school and homework, as parents, we need to be mindful that the holiday period is lengthy and we still need to focus on learning for our children. There are many fun ways of engaging children in learning at home, whilst relaxing and having fun along the way:

• Cooking / Baking – Christmas is an excellent time to read and make a few favourite recipes that can even be given out as presents to friends, neighbours and family.
• Reading – Pick a series or chapter book that will take time to read, draw pictures along the way.
• Writing – Write a holiday journal.
• Library visit – Whilst our College Learning Centre is closed, Cairns Libraries are open. Not only are they great places for books, but many also have other activities on offer for children.
• Art and Craft activities – Keep those fine motor skills in practice and put your creative thinking hats on.
• STEM / STEAM activities – There are many of these online for children to access, often with everyday objects and some of these projects take time and can be developed over a number of weeks.
• Technology – Of course, this is a favourite by kids!
• Outside time – Swimming, park plays, riding bikes and scooters are all great ways to keep active.

And don’t forget to have some family and friend time too!

As a dedicated staff we will continue to:

• Refine curriculum
• Develop engaging units of work around an inquiry approach for students to further develop a whole approach towards effective research-based pedagogy
• Provide students with the best opportunity to learn and develop skills and understandings

2022 Prep students have been allocated their individual classes and the other Primary School year levels will be working within a flexible classroom space, therefore individual classes are allocated for the benefit of specialist teaching lessons in the new school year. For the remainder of the time, these students will work within the flexible space under the guidance of two classroom teachers and learning assistants.

I am so proud of the Junior School community at Peace and it has been my second home for 10 years now, and it is with sadness that I leave this wonderful community.

I would like to acknowledge and thank all the Junior School families, current and past, and the amazing teaching team and staff who have shown constant support. Your dedication to teaching and learning and the support shown has helped make Peace, “A Great Place To Be!”.

I know that I leave Peace in a strong position both academically and from a pastoral care perspective. I leave knowing that the programs which have been introduced during my time are embedded in our school culture and will continue to grow.

Whilst 2022 is going to be a year of transition for Peace, I am truly excited and support these changes as the College continues to grow, innovate and provide a great education for our students.

May you and your family enjoy the Christmas break together. Travel safe, relax and enjoy being with each other during this special time of the year.

Kind regards,

Sarah Rowan
Head of Junior School

Term 4 has been an action-packed one for Middle School students. We began with our College Open Day, where our Middle School ambassadors from Years 6 to 9 led tours for prospective families. Everyone we spoke to on the afternoon remarked on how informative and enthusiastic our Peace students were, and many have since enrolled, in part because of the positive impression they gained from our fabulous young people. On the same afternoon, the Year 9 Rite Journey Class could be seen using their entrepreneurial skills on the Peace Green as they managed to sell a large number of succulents and plants which they had propagated and potted earlier in the year.

A number of year groups had some excellent educational excursions this term to help bring the curriculum to life. Middle School Christian Studies students in Year 9 visited the Cairns Buddhist Centre, Year 6 Italian students got to test their language skills ordering gelato at an Italian-owned ice-cream shop, and our Year 6 and Year 8 students of Japanese practised their language skills ordering Sushi. In the penultimate week of term, our Year 8 students were invited to a JCU Experience Day to help them consider future pathways and get a taste of what it’s like to study a range of subjects at the tertiary level. It was wonderful to receive an email from JCU staff following their trip praising our students.

As we head into the holidays, I wish you all a safe, peaceful and happy festive season and look forward to joining you in 2022 in my new role as Director of Wellbeing for both the Primary and Secondary Schools.

Blessings to you all,

Kirsten Anderson
Head of Middle School

In amongst the Year 9 Informal, our celebrations to farewell the Year 12s and the College Presentation Night, we also had a couple of other major events to celebrate in Middle School. Mr Adrian Bonser and the Robotics Club won the Far North Queensland Vex IQ Challenge and received an invite to participate at International Level, and our brilliant Scientists in Years 7 and 9 not only won the local Wonder of Science Competition but also got the double win at the State Conference in Brisbane. Congratulations to Mrs Michelle Cummings, Mrs Claudia Johnson and Mr Carl Johnson for all the hard work they put into preparing our teams.

The year concluded with two days of activities, which allowed students to wind down and celebrate together following a busy period of assessment and exams.

On Tuesday students enjoyed a range of pursuits including off-campus trips to Cairns Laser Tag, the Aqua Park, Ten-Pin Bowling and a day’s adventure to Green Island. On Wednesday we came together in our House groups to have fun and develop relationships through Human Hungry Hippos, Lego Masters and Dodgeball.

The Houses then went on to compete against one another to see who could create the best Spirit of Christmas Recycled Fashion outfit. In its inaugural year, the winners were Gold House.

Many of you will have heard of the show Squid Game, which has been streaming on Netflix. The show is rated MA 15+ as it contains graphic violence as well as a number of sex scenes. As a number of our community have raised concerns about students accessing the show, here is some information to help you understand more about the show and how to deal with children accessing disturbing content online.

Here are the main ways that children are accessing Squid Game, or parts of the show:

• Netflix (parental controls can be used so that when ‘Squid Game’ is searched nothing shows up)
• YouTube (it won’t show up on Kids YouTube)
• TikTok
• Instagram
• World in Roblox

As mentioned in our previous newsletter, our College Firewall prevents students from accessing this sort of material whilst using the College network.

Our Student Welfare Officer has recommended that parents and caregivers use this site to help them understand how to handle situations where children are wanting to watch, or have watched, content that is not appropriate for them:

• Dealing with disturbing content - ReachOut Parents

You can also find more information specifically relating to CyberSafety and Squid Game here.

Another great website, which is a wealth of information on the suitability of TV Shows, films, books and computer games for children is CommonSenseMedia.org. This is a website where parents and children contribute their views as to suitability based on content – as they say, knowledge is power and it’s a great resource if you’re unfamiliar with something your child might be accessing.

In 2022, we will again invite a number of external agencies to hold workshops and information sessions with students and parents around cyber safety and their use of online spaces. We know this is an area that is continually growing and it can have both a positive and negative impact on the wellbeing of our young people. Please look out for details of these sessions in 2022.

After all the restrictions of last year, it was wonderful to see proceeding returning to top form this year at the Pullman Cairns International. The venue was buzzing with excitement as the Graduating Seniors and College staff pulled out all the stops to stage a dazzling formal.

The evening began with our glamorous students arriving in all kinds of weird and wonderful modes of transport to a waiting crowd of parental paparazzi. After enjoying drinks in the atmospheric surroundings of the foyer and engaging in some professional photo opportunities, the guests were seated in the beautifully decorated event room. A wonderful evening was enjoyed by all. The location and effort put into the presentations made for a very enjoyable night. The crowd was wowed and expertly whipped into a dancing frenzy by the considerable skills of a previous college captain, Rowan Culliton, who performed the role of DJ through the evening.

A huge thank you to all students and staff who gave up considerable amounts of their time to make it happen. Mrs Eime and her Year 12 team warrant a particular mention for the wonderful week of retreat activities and celebrations, culminating in the wonderful graduation send-off.

Our Year 12 students graduated last Friday in a very moving chapel of celebration and reflection. Student tributes were followed by some wonderful music and readings. Finally, the graduating students took the opportunity to thank their family, friends and college staff who have supported them over the years with floral tributes.

In their final week, students made the most of their remaining time together and had the opportunity to visit Fitzroy Island, access some solid advice from Queensland Police through the “Driving the Message Home” program and Boarding students to spend time with their families, some who had travelled considerable distances to be in attendance for the events. The final week for Year 12 is an opportunity for our graduates to reflect on their time here and thank everyone in the school community who has helped them along the way.

Queensland Police delivered a presentation on campus to the Year 12 students as part of the Year 12 retreat activities. A senior officer of the Cairns Road Police spoke to the students about staying safe on the road as a young and inexperienced driver. This timely message was equally important for those students who are passengers of friends with newly acquired licences.

I would like to congratulate our new College Captains for 2022 and I am very much looking forward to working with them next year.

• Tiana Weidner (Captain)
• Charlotte Shaji (Captain)
• Jazibar Iftikhar (Vice Captain)
• Cara Kratzmann (Vice Captain)

On Thursday of Week 7, the Year 11 Biology classes travelled to Yorkey’s Knob and Cattana Wetlands. This field trip took place as part of their assessment in measuring the biodiversity of an area through the use of stratified sampling.

At Yorkey’s Knob beach, a 60-metre rope (transect line) was laid on the ground and at every 5-metre interval, the vegetation within 1m² was counted. The six transect lines showed the gradual change in the biodiversity of the vegetation with distance from the beach. At Cattana Wetlands the salt marsh and the mature forest were compared through the use of 5mx5m quadrats to find the soil salinity and tree species diversity.

At each location samples in 20 quadrats were taken, starting at the most southern end and moving north. After the trees inside each quadrat were counted, a sample of soil from the top left corner was collected to compare the soil types and soil salinity between the two locations.

We will use the data from our field trip to write the first internal Biology Year 12 assessment next year.

Article thanks to Kaelin and Coco, Year 11 Biology students.

Last Monday, the Environment Group and some College staff helped in the planting of 300 trees in an effort to enhance the oval area. The group members have done a fantastic job through the year, beautifying the school grounds, recycling school waste and setting a fine example of service to our community.

We are always looking for new recruits to continue the good work and participation in such initiatives always provide positive comments for job references and other applications.

Lights and Christmas go together. Many of us decorate our homes with them, inside and out. They are in stores and on the street. Last year, many people were disappointed that popular light shows were cancelled because of the pandemic.

Ages ago the prophet Isaiah spoke these words: ‘The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of the shadow of death a light has dawned.' (Isaiah 9:2).

Today, we are privileged to see that great light dawning and shining among us, that ‘true light that gives light to everyone… coming into the world’. That light is Jesus, the Light of the World, whose birth we celebrate at Christmas.

As Christmas lights shine from trees, windows, roof-tops, and churches, we are reminded that the Word who became flesh and made his dwelling with us, the one and only Son who came from the Father, is here. He triumphed over all the darkness of sin and death so that through him all should believe and receive the right to become children of God. Today we thank and praise God for Jesus our Saviour, Light of the World, full of grace and truth.

God bless,

Pastor Adam Eime
College Pastor

Each year, Peace Lutheran College supports a number of appeals and charitable organisations and we invite members of the College community to support these causes as they are able. This year we are again encouraging the support of the Salvation Army and Australian Lutheran World Service. Any assistance given to any of the appeals is greatly appreciated.

Salvation Army – Christmas Giving Tree

Peace Lutheran College is continuing the tradition of the Christmas Giving Tree. Members of the school community are invited to donate a new toy or gift, or items of food, to be placed under our Christmas tree in the Administration Office. These will be passed on to the Salvation Army’s Christmas Gift Appeal and will be given to needy families within Cairns.

The Christmas Tree has been decorated by students and is on display in the front office of the Admin building. Donations can be brought to the front office before Wednesday 8^th of December, which is the last day of the school year for students. The families in need that benefit from our donations and the work of the Salvation Army are very grateful to receive these items just prior to Christmas Day. Many people give family and friends gifts at Christmas time; we can also give to those in need.

Australian Lutheran World Service – Gifts of Grace

You are also encouraged to support Australian Lutheran World Service (ALWS) through their “Gifts of Grace” program. Catalogues are available from the front office and the catalogue can also be viewed, and donations made, online at alws.org.au/grace. There are many gifts, some under $10, that will make a lasting difference to families and communities overseas that the Lutheran Church are supporting through ALWS.

Australian Lutheran World Service – Christmas Action Appeal

Trinity Lutheran Church in Cairns invites everyone to attend their Christmas services.

• Christmas Eve service - 6:00 pm Friday 24^th December
• Christmas Day service - 8:00 am Saturday 25^th December

Peace's soccer coach, Mr Alberti has an unwavering belief in his soccer girls and this belief, coupled with his constant encouragement has seen both our CISSA and JSS soccer girls go from strength to strength. Their reward was not only on the field and the scoreboard but also in the form of their very own logo, courtesy of their coach.

This year, our CISSA soccer girls reclaimed the trophy for the first time since 2014. Our JSS soccer girls have had seasons of frustrating results, but the 2020 team came back this year even more determined, along with some new recruits, resulting in one of the best seasons in some time. As a way of giving back for all their hard work, Mr Alberti arranged for the design of a team logo, printed supporter stickers and training shirts.

The girls are delighted and it has provided a big confidence boost to the team.

A very big thank you to Mr Alberti for his total commitment and passion for bringing out the very best in his soccer girls.

We would like to congratulate our Middle School students who have been recognised as our Best & Fairest and Spirit of Peace award recipients from this year's Junior Secondary Sport (JSS) inter-school competition.

I would like to thank all the corporate organisations who have freely given their time to support our students, providing them with the ability to explore career and university pathways. The college continues to establish and maintain strong community partnerships across a number of businesses and support networks.

Thank you to organisations such as the Business Liaison Association, Defence Force Recruiting, Vocational Partnerships Group (VPG), James Cook University, TAFE, Divers Den, Griffith University, Iglu Student Accommodation and Central Queensland University (CQU) who have opened their doors and hearts to our students. Students have been busy attending university open days, professional breakfasts, ATAR and QTAC information sessions, career expos, had guest speakers visit and participated in career activities.

Wishing everyone happy holidays and a very Merry Christmas. I look forward to seeing you all in 2022.

Kind regards,

Rebecca Bolton
Careers Guidance Officer

As the 2021 year draws to a close, it is a great time to reflect on how the College has been supporting our students to successfully become work or study ready.

The last careers event of the year saw our Year 8 students visit James Cook University for UniX – the Year 8 University Experience Day. Students had the opportunity to explore what the university has to offer by participating in a range of hands-on activities showcasing a range of disciplines including Science, Engineering, Dentistry, Engineering, Social Sciences, Law and Education. Activities included a Moot Court, Paper Plane competition, Prisoners Dilemma, and the Egg Drop.

This year, students successfully completed their Vocational Education and Training (VET) certificate courses with TAFE, the Divers Den and Aviation Australia. Well done to all students for approaching their studies with passion and commitment.

Congratulations to Year 12 student Jack Browning who was awarded the VPG Vocational Education Student of the Year.

The Learning Centre has continued to be the hub of the college in 2021. Students have enjoyed our weekly library lessons, lunchtime activities, Book Club, Readers Cup, Premier’s Reading Challenge, and a range of wonderful digital and print resources.

End of Year Library Loans

The Learning Centre will be closed for stocktake from Monday 29^th December. All library books, textbooks, English texts and loan equipment must be returned by Friday 26^th November.

We would like to wish all of our super readers a very happy Christmas and we look forward to seeing you all again in the New Year.

Kind regards,

Tanya Mills and Marcelle Humphreys

This year proved to be the most successful Premier’s Reading Challenge ever, with students reading 4,168 Books! Congratulations to Year 2 who won the inter-class challenge, with every student in the class completing the challenge, and reading 1,800 books.

A big thank you to all of the Peace families who purchased books through our Book Fairs and Book Club. The Library has received over $3,000 in free books for our students to enjoy.

If you have not already had the pleasure of viewing the magnificent mural on the wall of the Peace Performing Arts Centre, do make sure you take a moment to view it in the new school year.

The mural is the first project of our newly formed, College Cultural Committee. We enlisted the artistic genius of Daniel “Wally” Wallwork to help bring the Committee's vision to life. After the initial meeting with Wally, the students met over their lunch breaks to brainstorm how they could embody the multicultural community that is Peace, within the mural. After many sketchings, they sent their ideas to Wally who turned them into a digital masterpiece, ready to project onto our wall.

The students chose to make the college value, “Community”, a feature on the wall to show that even though we come from many different cultural backgrounds and walks of life when we are at school, we all come together as one community.

• The 'world' and the 'hands' illustrate the many countries around the globe that our students and their families are connected to;
• The 'weaving pattern' encapsulates the many cultures woven together to make the tapestry that is our Peace Community;
• The 'reef and rainforest' pay homage to the Yirrganydji and Djabugay nations, the Traditional Owners of lands on which we, work, learn and play;
• The 'dove', the symbol of peace and the Holy Spirit, shows that Christ is at the forefront of all we do and is the foundation on which the College was built.

Over three days, in the second last week of Term 4, Wally and four teams of senior students worked incredibly hard in very hot conditions to bring our dream to life.

The students did an amazing job and learnt some pretty deadly skills along the way. We thank Wally for sharing his talents and expertise with us and look forward to working with him again in the future.

Our Instrumental Music students, Mila (Year 9) and Honey (Year 8 ) were successful with their nominations to represent Peace in the SHEP program, run by Queensland Conservatorium Griffith University. SHEP is an educational program for music students who wish to extend themselves in the pursuit of musical excellence. The program provides students with valuable opportunities, such as:

• Working in an intensive environment of musical excellence with their peers offers a unique opportunity to extend and develop their musical skills
• Work with a team of eminent Conductors from Queensland Conservatorium Griffith University
• Represent their school in a Finale Performance
• Receive a certificate of Participation

Students are nominated by their Instrumental Music Teacher and must be at, or above, a set degree of technical ability and proficiency on their instrument of study.

Rachel (Year 5) was also successful in making the reserves list.

Congratulations to our three Instrumental Music Students for achieving their invitations.

We were so pleased to have 2011 Peace graduate, Julia Seifert, return to the College as an undergraduate practice teacher just recently. Julia is currently studying a Masters of Teaching (Secondary Science) and spent time with Mrs Cummings and her science students throughout her placement.

Current Year 9 students, Mila and Bree were fortunate to interview Julia while she was here and this is what they reported..."Julia attended Peace from 2006 (Year 7) to 2011 (Year 12). By the time she graduated she was not only proud of her academic achievement, through her hard work, but she had developed a great admiration for her teachers. It was these teachers, who nurtured and developed her interest and love of the sciences, who inspired her to undertake a science degree and then a teaching degree."

"Julia said that she loved the feel of the small community that she found at Peace. She said that she felt that everyone knew each other by name in all different grades and everyone cared for each other. Julia loves the close community amongst students and staff at Peace."

"Julia noticed the upgraded and improved facilities at the College and the many new opportunities which the College is providing for the students, allowing them to express and develop their interest in many curricular and extra-curricular activities."

"Julia and her friends were some of the first students to establish and run the Environmental Club at the College and she said that she is very happy to see that it has continued and that there are still many students interested in the cause."

"Julia was extremely happy to find out that she would be undertaking her teaching practice at Peace, and how she’s now gone ‘full circle."It was with great pride that the College Science Department welcomed Julia in her role of undergraduate practice teacher." - Mila & Bree

The College has a team of dedicated staff who, together, look out for the pastoral care needs of our students. The Student Welfare Officer may provide support to students over a designated period of time, however, if a student requires ongoing and extensive support, the Student Welfare Officer will liaise with external agencies for further assistance as necessary. It should be clarified that the role of our Student Welfare Officer is not one of a ‘School Counsellor’ and that as a College, we are unable to provide ongoing counselling support.

Meeting with the Student Welfare Officer is via appointment or in emergency situations as the need arises. Our preferred referral process is for parents to please make contact with their child’s Home Group or Classroom Teacher as the initial point of contact. This allows us to consider ways we can best provide appropriate support as a school.

There are a number of community organisations we would recommend as services that may be able to assist you further:

General Practitioner – In many cases, speaking with a GP is the most beneficial first step. Your family GP will be able to assist with advice or appropriate referral avenues and support.

• Family and Child Connect (Ph: 13 32 64)
• Headspace Cairns (Ph: 4041 3780) – Youth Mental Health Centre & Services
• Centacare FNQ (Ph: 4044 0130)
• Relationships Australia (Ph: 1300 364 277)
• Kids Helpline (1800 55 1800)
• Beyond Blue – Anxiety, depression and suicide prevention support
• eSafety Commissioner

We strive to keep you informed through open, efficient communication. The Peace Lutheran College School App, Facebook and Instagram pages are regularly updated with news, events and important notices.

Peace Lutheran College acknowledges the Yirrganydji & Djabugay People, Traditional Custodians of the land in which we live and work. We pay respects to Elders past, present and emerging for they hold the memories, traditions, culture and hopes of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People.
