Dear Parents/Caregivers,
Welcome back as we start our 2021 school year with a flurry of activity. We anticipate that by our Day 8 census, 2608 students will be in regular attendance. Last week witnessed a smooth start to the year as students returned to their classes. Over the next few weeks, most students will receive their summative assessment schedule/items. Students are being encouraged to start their forward planning, using their student diaries now. In addition, in Care Classes last week, students were handed a Swimming Carnival permission form as well as an envelope for the 2021 school photos. Work has commenced on the installation of pedestrian traffic lights to replace the existing unmanned crossing on Thrower Drive. Visibility has been reduced in this area for both vehicles and pedestrians whilst the works are carried out. In addition, road works related to the M1 upgrade has reduced traffic flow, resulting in the streets around the school experiencing heavier and slower moving traffic flows after school in comparison to last year. Please remain patient and vigilant around the school area whilst these works are undertaken. Road Enforcement Command have had speed cameras operating in the school zone today.
Capital Works projects being administered by Q Build continue their progress at school. After fixing the significant water damage that we suffered over the holidays due to the inclement weather, the school’s electrical switchboards are being upgraded to ensure that the new air-conditioners will work effectively and efficiently. The new Sports Precinct Project Design Brief has been accepted and we are now waiting for the Project Coordinator to be appointed.

This week we welcomed 430 Year 7 students to our junior secondary school plus an additional 33 new Year 8 and 9 students. I have been very pleased to see the year start off so smoothly.
We always start with a clear focus on our school motto Nil Sed Optima which means nothing but the best - we ask students to set goals to be their best and we will support and assist them every step to achieve those goals.
We wish everyone the most productive and happy year and we look forward to working with you. Junior Secondary is being led by a fabulous team who will support your young people in any endeavours or problems they have.
The key Junior Secondary team members based in D Block are;
- Tammy Burns - Deputy Principal Year 7
- Wendy Wise - Deputy Principal Years 8 and 9
- Kate Patterson – Head of Year 7
- Donna Condon - Head of Year 8
- Cameron Williams – Head of Year 9
- Anna Willis – Guidance Officer
- Yvette Whittaker – Junior Secondary Student Services
- Michelle McIntyre - DP and Whole School IP Support
- Lyn Bortolin – DP and Junior Secondary Office Support
- Sarah Ryan – Executive Support to Junior Secondary Principal
Contacts can be found on the school website https://pbc-shs.eq.edu.au/our-school/contact-us/staff-contact-list
Enquiries and or concerns can be directed through our central email - parentsupport@pbc-shs.eq.edu.au as these are fielded to the most helpful person to support you.
PBC’s Junior Secondary School has commenced with energy and enthusiasm, as students were introduced to both their Care Classes and new academic classes. There has been a positive buzz about the Junior Secondary that augurs well for the students’ endeavours. For Year 7, this is a time of great change, while in Years 8 and 9, students are adjusting to the raised expectations and demands on their learning.
Year 7 Parent Information Evening
Year 7 Parents please look out for your emailed invitation to our Year 7 Parent Information Night. The night will include some introductions across two alternating short sessions including – laptop use at home, practical tips for parent controls and a visit to your child’s care classroom hosted by their English/Humanities and Maths/Science teachers. We will also discuss Year 7 Camp. The night will conclude at 7:00 pm. Parents attending should bring their child’s student planner with their student timetable in it. You will be greeted at the main entrance and directed to your first venue as this will vary depending on your child’s class.
Assessment Calendar
Each student has received a PBC Student Planner, in which they record their homework, important dates and assignment deadlines. To help students get organised and stay organised, the Assessment Calendar will be published on the PBC website in Week 4 and emailed to parents. Parents and students can easily access this information so that they can predict the busy times and plan for them. Students should also be using their student planners to note homework and important dates.
Year 9 Behaviour and Welfare Update
This year has a strong emphasis on the personal development of our Year 9 young people as they navigate their way towards Senior Secondary. Students will find that they are both given and are expected to have greater responsibly for their choices and actions every day.
Our mantra this year is ‘Make a life of choice, not chance’. Making the best of all of the learning opportunities at PBC means that young people will maximise the choices they have when they leave school. Naturally, students with outstanding effort and behaviour are most likely to achieve the best outcomes. We look forward to our students attending every day, on time, and fully engaging in the learning process.
Attendance Policy
PBC Attendance Target – 92%

Read LessCare Term 1
Students are utilising their time in Care during Term 1 to develop a greater sense of self-identity through the Who Am I? Unit. Concepts including Character Strengths, shadow sides, personal learning styles, positive self-talk and the impact of social media on self-identity are being covered. Parents are encouraged to continue these conversations with their child at home.
Research shows that having a greater sense of self-identity and awareness correlates with enhanced wellbeing. Students that have a good understanding of themselves are less likely to look to others for their opinions and their approval. Knowing who you are allows you to live with purpose, develop healthy relationships and contributes to good emotional health. Parents are invited to take the VIA Character Strengths Survey (www.viacharacter.org) which students will be completing in care class soon as a link between school and home. Are your strengths the same as your child’s?
Swimming Carnival
The 2021 PBC Swimming Carnival is fast approaching and the energy is palpable!
Years 7-9 will take to the pool on Tuesday 9 February, with the Seniors (Years 10-12) competing on Wednesday 10 February - 9:00am-3.05pm.
Students should have brought home their permission notes this week. These must be completed and returned asap. A reminder that our Swimming Carnival is a compulsory school day, with no scheduled classes occurring at school. Students can participate in competitive races as well as participation based fun races and events. As a major carnival on our calendar, it is a hotly contested House based competition, with 100 House Points, age champion trophies and district qualifications up for grabs. We have no doubt the students will represent their House with pride.
To ensure all students are kept busy throughout the day - the inflatable fun is back!! For $5, students can purchase a wristband, which will permit use of the giant Slip and Slides, Dunk Tank, Waterslides and inflatable obstacle courses.
Please ensure your student has applied sunscreen before leaving home and remind them to reapply throughout the day. Sunscreen will be available at the carnival. Students must also wear a sleeved t-shirt or rash shirt and enclosed shoes to enter the pool. Students are also reminded that swimwear must be appropriate for a school event.
The Senior Student Council will be running a BBQ and the pool canteen will have other food and drink available for purchase. Students can also bring their own lunch. A water bottle is a necessity, as no doubt it will be a hot day.
Don’t forget to dress up in your House colours!
- Athenians – Yellow
- Spartans – Blue
- Phoenicians – Red

Thanks Mr Hart!
We would also like to formally thank Mr Hart for his contribution to House and Care over the last 4 years, and welcome Ms Schatz who is stepping into the Vikings Head of House role.
