SPECIAL REPORT: Trauma Recovery Following the tragic events at Bondi Beach, many children and young people may be feeling unsettled, anxious or confused, particularly if they have been exposed to media coverage or conversations about what occurred. Even indirect exposure to such events can disrupt a child’s sense of safety and lead to emotional or behavioural changes, with each child responding differently depending on their age and individual needs. The brain stores traumatic events as powerful emotional memories, influencing a young person’s behaviour through mechanisms beyond their conscious awareness. By providing them with support and equipping young people with coping mechanisms to handle uncertainty, parents and carers can greatly enhance a child’s capacity to recover and build long-term emotional resilience. This Special Report offers practical guidance to help identify the signs of trauma and outlines ways we can support young people through recovery. Here is the link to your Special Report http://cccglenmorepark.catholic.schooltv.me/wellbeing_news/special-report-trauma-recovery God bless Mrs Tania Cairns Principal Leader

What a special and joy-filled morning we experienced as our wonderfully talented choir brought Christmas cheer to the residents of Glenmore Park Care Community. Led by Ms Wall and Mr Caws, our students performed a beautiful selection of carols that truly captured the heart of the season. Their music, smiles and warm conversations after the performance created a memorable moment of connection with our nearby neighbours and friends. We are so proud of the generosity and spirit our students shared. ❤️✨

Earlier this week, Sophie McLaughlin (Year 12, 2025) returned to UNSW to inspire the 2025 cohort of the School of Economics’ STEP UP Playconomics Competition. Sophie was the 2024 national winner - finishing in the top 0.5% of students across Australia - an extraordinary outcome that reflected her passion for business and economics and her firm aspirations to study at UNSW. https://www.unsw.edu.au/news/2025/04/Caroline-chisholm-college-success-in-playconomics Sophie's address was as impressive as it was inspirational, bringing both wisdom and warmth to the prestigious Sir John Clancy Auditorium. She shared how Playconomics became a turning point in her journey, proving that she could rise to a challenge, think strategically, and thrive in a university learning environment. It cemented her passion for business and economics and further strengthened her determination to study at UNSW in 2026. Speaking to students from across Sydney, she encouraged them with this powerful message: “You are 1000% capable of more than you think.…If you enjoyed the challenge or felt even a tiny spark of excitement while playing, that feeling matters. It could be pointing you toward a future passion, a career direction, or even just the confidence to try something new.” She closed with an inspiring reminder: “Don’t underestimate how valuable this program has been or what it says about your potential… your success will bring you further than you think.” Also speaking at this impressive occasion were Professor Isabella Dobrescu, Head of School of Economics, Professor Alberto Motta (Chair, STEP Up Program), Paul Andon (Interim Dean UNSW Business School) with a keynote address delivered by The Hon Adrian Piccoli, former NSW Minister for Education. Our College celebrates Sophie's success and achievement in the competition and her inspirational speech this week. She represented Caroline Chisholm College with such grace and confidence and is a wonderful ambassador for our community. She is a role model and shining example of what it means to embrace every opportunity. We look forward to hearing where her career takes her next year and beyond!

The final week of Term 4 has been a meaningful and motivating one for our Year 10 students, who have taken part in a specially designed program to inspire and prepare them for the next exciting stage of their journey. Throughout the week, students explored a range of sessions focused on mental health, wellbeing and mindfulness, prayer experiences, the season of Advent and the importance of service. There was also a focus on future readiness — including careers, team building and the key capabilities they’ll need as they move into Year 11 and 12. This tailored program has given students valuable time to reflect, strengthen their skills, and build the confidence needed to thrive in the years ahead. Our Careers and Pathways workshops featured activities centred on identifying transferable skills using the CADI Careers Clusters tool, exploring the twists and turns of their future career pathways, and hearing from special guest speaker Tim Hempel, Operations Supervisor at Garton Group (McDonald’s Blaxland, Lithgow, Emu Plains and the soon-to-open Mulgoa Rise restaurants). Tim offered practical, timely advice on interview skills, resume preparation, the value of initiative, teamwork and a strong work ethic, and the range of opportunities available within his organisation. Our Year 10s made the most of this experience, asking thoughtful questions and engaging in a rich conversation with insights relevant to whatever career path they choose to follow. We thank Tim for his valuable insights. For the week that was, well done Year 10 on your enthusiasm and positive attitude!

Our Year 11 Hospitality 2 students ended the term on a wonderfully festive note with a Christmas-inspired dessert, a tasty mix somewhere between a brownie, cake, and biscuit! 🍫🎂🍪 While this dish wasn’t about showcasing technical skill, it was all about having fun, celebrating the end of the year, and enjoying the moment together. With Christmas music playing and plenty of festive spirit in the room, it was the perfect way to wrap up the term.
