Dear Parents, Students and Friends of Ursula Frayne Catholic College,
YOUR CHILD’S WELLBEING
There is a plethora of studies that link wellbeing to learning. Research shows that high levels
of mental health are associated with increased learning, crea vity and produc vity, more pro‐
social behaviour, and posi ve social rela onships, and with improved physical health and life
expectancy.
There is no silver bullet to caring for and growing our own and our children’s wellbeing. Just
like the dashboard in your car, no single gauge tells you how your car is running, but rather it

From the Principal cont...
E – Engagement + Mindfulness: your own nega ve mind cha er, which causes you to experience fight or flight responses will probably be
the biggest thing for you to control and overcome. Remember your children are likely to imitate you. To focus yourself try: create posi ve I
can and I will self‐talk statements to combat the nega ves, colour in for ten minutes and breathe deeply and slowly.
R – Rela onships + Empathy: other people are the best an dotes for life’s ups and downs. Use Zoom, Teams, Skype and Google Hangout for
you and your children to see happy and smiling faces, break out UNO, Scrabble and other fun games to generate laughter, have fun cooking
up pancakes (or similar), and do Wellbeing Fitness Challenges together.
M – Meaning + Purpose: in these mes, feelings of vulnerability are perfectly normal for both you and your children. To relieve these feel‐
ings, having a strong sense of purpose to focus on something bigger than yourselves to devote your energies to, will assist. As a family, make
cards to drop into le erboxes of elderly people in your street, make fun family videos, and as a family follow and learn about a caring charity.
A – Accomplishment + Op mism: to cul vate feelings of op mism in your family that together you can influence your own futures, set a goal
at home every day. Try star ng a vegetable garden with your children, paint a room or a piece of furniture, do one extra sit up or push up,
encourage your children to complete one thing at a me from their teachers or an online wellbeing ac vity.
H – Health + Strengths: to keep your own and your children’s immune systems strong, focus on the big five – healthy fresh ea ng, one hour’s
exercise, at least 8 hours sleep, drinking plenty of water and looking on the bright side of life. An upli ing family ac vity is to iden fy your
top character strengths doing the free online Strengths Survey at www.viacharacter.org. Everyone puts their strength on the fridge and tries
spo ng them.
A sense of wellbeing and connectedness in schools promotes op mal development of the person as a whole and contributes to academic
success. It has o en been said that it takes a whole village to raise a child. It certainly takes a whole healthy school context to help a child to
flourish. With passion, careful planning and perseverance, great things develop. As such, events such as Wellness Week and RUOK? Day
provide opportuni es to focus on what helps us feel well, celebrate the posi ve and look a er ourselves.

CONGRATULATIONS
I write to advise that the Australian Associa on of Religious Educa on (AARE) has conferred on one of our staff
members, Mrs Cecilia Loh, a State Award of Meritorious Service in recogni on of her exemplary contribu on and
service to the Religious Educa on Learning Area.
The AARE is the Na onal Professional Associa on for Chaplains and Educators in the fields of Service‐Learning,
Spirituality, Ethics, Philosophy, Values and Religious Educa on. Members include primary and secondary Govern‐
ment, Catholic and Independent schools and from ter ary ins tu ons in Australia.
In conferring this award, the Associa on noted that it was impressed with the passion, endeavour, and achievements that Cecilia has
demonstrated over many years, par cularly when working with students in a variety of contexts.
Cecilia was presented with her award at the AARE Annual Dinner last night supported by several colleagues who were in a endance.
The AARE Award of Meritorious Service is one form of honouring and recognising the work of those involved within the field of Religious
Educa on.
Although Cecilia was surprised by her nomina on, it is just and fi ng to afford her such recogni on. As such, I am sure that you will join
with me in congratula ng Cecilia on this remarkable personal and professional achievement.
CONDOLENCES
It is with a sense of sadness that I write to inform that Gerri Vanpraag’s (Teacher Assistant – Balmoral
campus) much‐loved father, Mr William (Bill) Caddy, passed away in Townsville on Monday night follow‐
ing a period of illness. Mr Caddy is also the grandfather of Carter Vanpraag in Kindergarten.
In mes of grief the prayers, love and support of our very strong Frayne community will be of great
comfort to the family. As such, I ask that you take a moment today to pray for Gerri and her family.
Eternal rest grant unto Bill, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him.
May his soul and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
With regards and best wishes.

Chaplain’s Reflection
The birthday of the Virgin Mary is celebrated on 8 September. This feast is 9 months a er the Feast of the
Immaculate Concep on on 8 December and has been celebrated in the Church since at least the 8th century.
Even though there is nothing in the Bible about it, there are some early documents telling us the story of the
birth of Mary. Saints Joachim and Anne, her parents, received a beau ful gi from God in Mary and they
raised her with love as a child of God.
When our mother has a birthday, children send their gree ngs and love, so let us be sure that we do the same
to our Mother Mary on her birthday. The liturgy of this feast expresses the wonderful works that God has done
by the acceptantance of Mary to do His will. Pope Francis reflec ng on this feast said: "Every me I read sacred Scripture, in the verses that
talk about Our Lady, three verbs catch my a en on. BE JOYFUL, HELP WITHOUT HESITATION and PERSEVERE". When we get Jesus in our
life, as Mary did, we are filled with a JOY so great that nothing and no one can take away from us. This happiness rises us up and encourages
us like Mary to HELP others. Making a difference does not have to be done on a grand scale, every li le thing we do for others with love can
bring joy to others. Mary always relied on God, in the middle of problems and sufferings, she PERSEVERES, she remains standing, even at the
foot of the cross. "In this world in which long‐las ng values are rejected and everything is changing, in which the disposable triumphs, in
which it seems people are afraid of life's commitments, the Virgin encourages us to be men and women who are constant in their good
works, who keep their word, who are always faithful," Pope Francis said.
Let us wish our Blessed Mother Mary Happy Birthday and pray with the Opening Prayer for the mass:
Impart to your servants, we pray, O Lord, the gi of heavenly grace,
that the feast of the Na vity of the Virgin Mary
may bring deeper peace to those for whom
the birth of her Son was the dawning of salva on.
Fr Jesus Bello, College Chaplain, Duncan Campus
ACC Athletics Team
On Wednesday 8 September we saw the weather gods shine on us as we competed at the State Athle cs Stadium for our annual ‘E’ Division
Athle cs Carnival.
With a team of 120 strong athletes we were excited for what the day could bring. The students were amazing and also looked very stylish in
our brand new athle c singlets. They threw, jumped and ran their hearts out for UFCC, o en working out of their comfort zone to help
others in the team. We had many athletes with heavy workloads and their friends helped them get from event to event, without any
trouble.
It was also great to see so many parents, guardians and grandparents at the stadium to support our athletes. Friends of Frayne also supplied
juice and snacks for our hard working athletes.
Overall UFCC placed second, being pipped at the post by 35 points. We did s ll win three shields:
Senior Girls’ shield
Senior Boys’ shield
Overall Girls’ Aggregate
We also had some stand out performances by the following athletes:
U13 Girls Anna Mar n 2nd place
U16 Boys Keenan Ee 2nd place
Ben Whelpdale 3rd place
U16 Girls Isabelle Rosalia 3rd place
Open Boys Alexander Okoye 2nd place
Open Girls Rachel Statham 2nd place
A team of 16 volunteers, led by Miss Ricci, also worked relessly throughout the day on a variety of ac vi es, including hurdles, finish line
and catering.
I would like to thank Mrs Griffiths, Miss Vince, Mr Tomasevich, Miss Ricci, Miss Muhling and Miss Mar n for their ongoing commitment to
the UFCC spor ng program and the students. Without them we would not be able to celebrate our successes.

Wellbeing Week
Wellbeing Week provides the opportunity to engage in, and learn ways to focus on our physical, mental
and emo onal health. Various ac vi es were held on both campuses to acknowledge wellbeing week.
On the Duncan Campus students had the opportunity to engage with informa on displays, a pledge
board, music and bubbles during Recess and Lunch. Mul ple studies state indoor plants lower stress
levels and anxiety, plus increased produc vity and performance so Homerooms got the opportunity to
get crea ve in the ‘Posi ve Plan ng’ Ac vity. This involved Homerooms decora ng a plant pot and
plan ng a plant. The challenge is to now look a er the plant and see how they’ve grown throughout
the year.
On the Balmoral Campus, students engaged with several ac vi es over the course of the week that
enabled them to spend me on their own health and wellbeing. Families were encouraged to spend
quality me together and share their experiences on SeeSaw with the school, instead of doing home‐
work! This was certainly well received by the students. On Friday, all the students were invited to
wear their sports uniform to par cipate in outdoor ac vi es that promoted teamwork and fitness. The
laughter and joy that was heard around the campus displayed how important it is to provide students
with the opportuni es to have fun and be outside.
Staff also par cipated in a stretching session and photo challenge, sharing photos of ‘Where I find wellbeing’ and were grateful to receive a
cooked breakfast by the ELT for R U OK? day on both campuses.
Whilst we celebrate Wellbeing Week, it’s also important to remember that we can be doing something every day to fill up our tanks and
keep well.

THANK YOU
I would like to thank Miss Kim Thuijs and the students who elected to be a part of the College
Wellbeing Student Team for organising this year’s Wellbeing Week ac vi es. This is a great
student led ini a ve that has grown over the last two years and is just another example of the
amazing staff and students we have at Frayne who work hard to look for opportuni es to
support one another and turn ideas into reality around the College.
