Dreaming with eyes open…
To kick off our Book Week Celebrations Sami Bayly who is one of my personal favourite children’s authors & illustrators will be our guest on Thursday, 18 August.
The presentation aims at promoting reading, creative writing and illustrating.
Over the years Sami has won and been nominated for numerous awards, receiving Highly Commended for the Community Educator of the Year in the 2021 Environmental Education Awards.
Her first book, The Illustrated Encyclopaedia of Ugly Animals won the Children’s Indie Book of the Year Award and the Best Designed Children’s Non-Fiction Illustrated book held by the Australian Book Design Awards. In the USA it was the 2020 GOLD Winner for the Juvenile Non-Fiction Award, held by Foreword Reviews.
It received the Honour Award for the CBCA Eve Pownall Award and was shortlisted for the ABIA Book of the Year for Younger Children and the ABA Booksellers’ Choice 2020 Book of the Year Awards.

Our Waverley Pop-Up Bookshop proudly supported by The Children’s Bookshop in Glebe will continue our celebrations on Monday 22 August from 9:00 am – 1:00 pm in the Learning Hub.
Students will visit the bookshop with their class on Monday from 9:00 am.
The payment method will be determined closer to the date.
Allowing your son to make his own choices on what to purchase is a great way to encourage him to read!
Books will range from $10.00
Your son will take part in a fun and engaging writing workshop that will encourage critical and creative thinking while working collaboratively in a small group to produce part of an imaginative text, which in turn will be part one chapter of a book. The final copy will be printed and placed in the Learning Hub for all to enjoy.
All students from the Junior campus are encouraged to enter one or both of the competitions running for Book Week. I will be promoting these competitions in the first few weeks of Term 3.
Winners will be announced on Thursday, 25 August

The days were based around training, skills and drills, individual and team challenges, game plan, mini games, recovery sessions and education.

Congratulations to Marcus for making it into the NSW State AFL Team.
In the school holidays Dexter Francis (Year 6) competed in the Interschools ski and snowboard regional competitions in Perisher. The Interschools competition is a fantastic event where over 2500 kindergarten to year 12 children, from over 350 schools across Australia compete across a number of different skiing and snowboarding disciplines.
Dexter competed in Division 4 where he received a gold medal for coming first in Snowboard Cross, silver medal for Snowboard Giant Slalom, and placed 12th in moguls, 15th for Skier Cross and 18th for Alpine – an incredible achievement for a first attempt, especially without any race training.
Dexter will progress to the NSW State Championships for Snowboard Cross, Snowboard GS, Moguls and Skier Cross where he will join Rory Palmer (Year 5) and Patrick Palmer (Year 7) who will be competing in Alpine, Skier Cross and Moguls having prequalified for the NSW State Championships.

A further congratulations to the Waverley boys that represented Randwick in the U10s, including Will Thompson & Oliver Burke and anyone else missed.
We will be holding the School Fun Run as a major fundraising event this year on Friday, 26 August! We’re doing it to raise much needed money for the following charities linked to the annual Walkathon Fundraiser event that has been running for close to 30 years at the Junior School:
| The Sydney Children’s Hospital Foundation |
| Starlight Children’s Foundation |
| Children’s Leukaemia & Cancer |
The School Fun-Run BIG SHOW is all about Fun! There will be huge inflatables, and you will get to meet Chase the Cheetah! Think of it as a Fun Run carnival! This will be one of the most exciting days on our school’s calendar, with everyone’s participation the aim, so please make sure they attend on the day and cheer the other kids on!
Firstly, go to schoolfunrun.com.au and create a student profile page. Everything to do with your fundraising revolves around this page. Students have also been given a booklet with a QR code to help with the sign-up process, which needs to be done by the parents/ carers.
Students who raise just $10 will be able to choose a prize! The more they raise, the better their reward – don’t forget to check these out in the sponsorship form! We have educated students on the dangers of doorknocking without supervision, and we encourage you to reiterate this at home. The great thing about online fundraising is that you can share the link to your child’s profile with friends and family via email, SMS and Social Media.
The easiest way to help your child raise money is through online fundraising, where students raise an average of $120. On top of raising more money, it’s also safer and easier than door knocking and you don’t have to worry about handling money! To start fundraising online, go to your student profile page at schoolfunrun.com.au and share your online fundraising link.
Not only can you support the school and students with your sponsorship – but you can join in on the fun! We would love to welcome parents and family members to attend the School Fun Run. If you would like to volunteer on the day, please contact me on the details below. I can’t wait to see you at our event!

It was an honour to have Old Boy and 2015 College Dux, Adam Hegedus come and speak with Year 12 this week. His wisdom and humble words of advice were well received by the students. He spoke about what inspired and motivated him during his HSC and subsequent studies, offering tips on how he would engage with lessons and prepare for exams. He reinforced the importance of collective effort, hard work and collaboration.
“It’s always great to be back at Waverley – a place which transformed my perspective and goals in life.”
Adam’s many school achievements include: an ATAR of 99.85; 1st in the State for Studies of Religion II; 15th in the State for Business Studies; honoured on the Premiers All Rounders List; College Prefect; Captain of Football – both 1st and 2nd XI; member of 1sts Debating team and active involvement in public speaking.
Upon graduating, Adam was awarded the University of NSW Academic Achievement Award and the highly sought Co-Op Scholarship to study Commerce, majoring in Information Systems and Management. A scholarship only awarded to 5 students each year, with close to a thousand applicants nationwide. He has since graduated his degree with Distinction.
Motivated by the Timor-Leste immersion he experienced here at Waverley College, Adam and classmate Alessandro Piovano chose to walk 21 days from Waverley College to Byron Bay in lieu of ‘schoolies’ and raised $20 000 to go towards building a school in Timor-Leste.
This event went on to inspire the development of Educating The Future (ETF), a youth-run, not-for-profit organisation that builds pre-schools in remote areas of Timor-Leste. Both Adam and Alexi are co-founders of this organisation which seeks to facilitate relief from poverty and generational disadvantage by providing access to pre-school education. ETF has established a volunteer team of students and an expert advisory panel, who are all committed to improving the quality of education in Timor-Leste.
Their major Fundraiser for 2022 will be held at Waverley College on Saturday, 6 August. To book a table or find out more details click here.
In 2020, Adam received a First Class Honours for his study into Women on large Australian Boards and is working with the industry to shape policy around board-level diversity. Adam has completed the Australian Institute of Company Directors Governance Foundations for not-for-profit directors.
Adam leads a social impact portfolio of work across the not-for-profit, international development, and higher education sectors. Currently Adam is the volunteer Chief Operating Officer and Company Secretary of Teach Us Consent. A movement founded by activist Chanel Contos lobbying for and providing holistic consent and sexuality education. Here, Adam supports the governance and regulatory compliance of the organisation, along with engaging with partners, grant applications, fundraising and research.
Most recently, Adam achieved a scholarship to study at the University of Oxford in September where he will be completing his Masters over the next two years. We wish him every success and look forward to continuing our connection with Adam and his endeavours.

It was great to welcome back all staff and students at a special NAIDOC Week Assembly on Tuesday morning. Term 3 at Waverley College is also known as Our Lady’s Term in dedication to Mary, Jesus’ mother.
At the assembly, I noted a rise in COVID cases in Sydney and the need to remain vigilant in maintaining good hygiene and personal health habits until we cross the peak and reach warmer weather at the end of winter.
It is important that any student with even the mildest of cold and flu symptoms remain at home.
All students ate encouraged to practice personal hygiene by:
Boys were also reminded that masks are still required by law on public transport and they are encouraged to wear them at school, particularly in confined spaces.
I congratulate the majority of boys who attended day one in the correct uniform and with haircuts within College policy. Our uniform and grooming form part of the high expectations we have of our students to present themselves with consistency and pride in their identity as students of Waverley College.

*As per the updated conditions of enrolment and as indicated on the College website from 2023, for all Years 5 and 7 enrolments, Term 1 tuition fees are charged in Term 4, in the year prior. This includes continuing Year 6 (2022) students into Year 7 (2023). This replaces the “continuing confirmation deposit” charged in the 3rd Payment to Year 6. Year 5 and 7 will still receive an invoice in Term 1, 2023 for any applicable sundries, excursion fees and camps. Please be advised that if this payment is not made by the due date, your son’s enrolment will be forfeited, and his place will be offered to a waitlisted candidate.
Fees paid before 4pm on the prompt payment date attract a $25.00 discount.
Any payment received after the due date will attract an administrative fee of $110.00.
Please be advised that some financial institutions need more than 48 hours to process their payments (e.g. internet/BPay/BPoint).
Please see the last page of your account for payment method and contact details.
You are reminded that if you wish to withdraw your son from enrolment at Waverley College, you are required to give one term’s notice in writing to the Principal that your son’s enrolment will cease.
The last day you can give notice that your son’s enrolment is finishing at the end of a school term, is the first day of the same term. If not received by that date, a penalty equivalent to one term’s tuition fees will be payable. The relevant dates for 2022 are below:
After three years in the making, the EREA Eastern Region Learning Network Day finally made its debut on Monday 18, July. This important event was certainly worth the wait!
Our work as educators in an Edmund Rice school is to provide high-quality learning; learning that is evidence-based, is about continuous improvement, and is about outcomes that set our young people up to lead meaningful lives. The EREA Network Day provided an opportunity for our staff to come together to collaborate and learn from our peers across seven of the Eastern Region schools and engage in rich professional dialogue and practice. We came away with a strong sense of what we have in common with our EREA network, a renewed sense of hope about the education we provide our students, and some new and innovative teaching and learning strategies.
I would like to thank all staff for their active engagement with the multiple sessions across the five campuses (Waverley College, St Pius X College, St Patrick’s College, St Dominic’s College and Christian Brothers Lewisham). Special thanks to Waverley’s host faculties: Drama, English, Music, TAS and Visual Arts under the guidance of their respective Head of Department Alison Jinga, Michael Couani, Chris Balkizas, James Spargo and Natalie Oates.
The following Waverley staff are to be congratulated on facilitating presentations across the network. All of which were of exceptional quality, showcasing the contemporary pedagogy implemented at Waverley College.
Bill Roberts, Gemma Brown, Silvia Baylie, Michael Couani, Andrea Fernandez, Zoe Fitzgerald, Chris Balkizas, Kyra Oliver, David Parnell, Priscilla Quintana, Matt Barr, Graham Clarkson, Anthony Gibbs, Stephanie Jackman, Bev McCarthy, Holly Medcalf, Marke Neale, Cathy Pham, Alan Riordan, James Spargo, Kim Spicer and Stephen Wilmot.
Finally, special thanks to Lauren Ryan for the logistical operations of the event. Her grace, patience and expertise throughout the planning process – from the two false starts to the final execution – is commended and much appreciated.

This will provide someone else with the opportunity to purchase a secondhand uniform well below the new price, whilst at the same time, raising funds for the College through the Parents’ Association.

Throughout term 1 and the beginning of Term 2, Year 8 students Renato, Oscar, Fox and Year 11 student Isaiah, have been working on a triptych artwork for the Sydney Catholic Schools Clancy Prize Art Competition.
This Friday, they will be submitting their work to Australian Catholic University (ACU), to be judged and exhibited along with other Sydney Catholic Schools. The theme for the this year’s exhibition is ‘Celebrating 200 Years of Catholic Education’.
The group of artists have created a triptych which reflects our own unique history with the subject matter of Blessed Edmund Rice, Brother Murphy and our own students. This is alongside elements that symbolise the land our school sits upon. The artwork emulates the unique school of Waverley in the eastern suburbs and how these elements combine to make Waverley.
On 21 May we invite everyone to come and view this artwork at ACU and the presentation of awards. We also wish the best of luck to Renato, Oscar, Fox and Isaiah for the competition selection process.
