Make a Wave
St Edward's Surfers 'Make a Wave' for SurfAid
In September, the St Edward’s surfing community (students, staff, and families) is invited to join the St Edward's Surfers Make a Wave group to raise vital funds and awareness for the incredible work that SurfAid does in remote regions of the surfing world. https://makeawave.co/st-edwards-surfers
The premise is simple; surf everyday during the month of September, track how many surfs you have and raise money for SurfAid. In the 2024 Make a Wave month, over $640,000 was raised globally. This is the third year that our St Edward’s community is participating in “Make A Wave”, over the last two years we have raised over $20,000 and hope that we will be able to raise some money again this year.
All boys who participate in this great initiative will be able to gain Waterford Hours for the surfs that they have.
If you'd like to get involved, please click on link https://makeawave.co/st-edwards-surfers and sign up. If you have any questions, please contact Jackson English (jenglish@stedwards.nsw.edu.au)

PDHPE in Action
Year 7 PDHPE experienced different fundamental skills such as running, striking with their hands, feet and bats. They also learned to recognise the five components of health and the factors that affect them. The Safe and Sound unit covers all sorts of risks and how to minimise them, from technology, drugs, surf safety to how to stay safe in the sun. To enhance this knowledge, later this term a guest speaker from the Melanoma Institute will come to speak to the boys about how to stay safer in the sun and detect potential skin cancers and they will participate in a water safety unit at Gosford pool.
Year 8 PDHPE students have participated in European Handball, Soft Lacrosse and AFL (when the ovals aren’t closed due to rain) and will try basketball skills next term. In theory lessons they learned strategies to cope with and stop bullying. To complement this unit, they watched the Brainstorm production ‘Verbal Combat’ which is a thought provoking live performance that challenges students to reflect on cyberbullying, values and the responsible use of technology. Later this term, they will experience stress management techniques and wellbeing skills.
Year 9 PDHPE challenged stereotypes in their theory lessons and in prac they participated in blind athletics, seated volleyball, blind soccer, ‘on the knees’ table tennis and traditional Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander games. The aim was to increase awareness of diversity in order to avoid discrimination, harassment and vilification. As part of this unit they will be experiencing wheelchair basketball and listening to a guest speaker talk about how he lives with disability and the challenges this creates.
Year 9 PASS learned how to analyse and appraise fad diets or physical activity regimes. They were also encouraged to design their own nutrition plan. They examined the contribution and impact of technology in sport. They were also wonderful ambassadors for our subject by helping the local and school communities by assisting with administration, refereeing and officiating at numerous primary school gala days and swimming carnivals.
Year 10 PDHPE spent more time learning how to develop and maintain respectful relationships. They also examined the extent and casual factors of road traffic crashes and how to respect others on the road. The boys were fortunate to travel to Sydney to take part in the bStreetsmart forum. This is a hard hitting, realistic view on road safety and the consequences of being reckless. The boys also got real life education tips on what to look for when buying their first car, such as bald tyres, breaking systems, air bags, crumple zones etc.
10 PASS took on the difficult task of anatomy and physiology and the Body Systems and Energy for Physical Activity. This term saw the students participate in and learn about strategies and techniques that could be used to enhance performance. In prac, they designed and participated in their own modified games.
Year 11 Outdoor Recreation VET course students completed their ‘Apply First Aid’ certificate and continued their fun with their four day camp. The boys and girls caught the Palm Beach Ferry from Ettalong, did a learn to surf lesson, before paddling kayaks across to The Basin. They had to set up tents, cook their own meals and then participate in fishing, hiking and mountain biking. It was an awesome adventure and Mr Gentle and Mr Tubridy loved leading the students on this experience. This topped off a great course where they also participated in a hike in Bouddi National Park, kayaking on the Brisbane Water and completing a basic water rescue at Gosford pool. I wish I was one of those students!
Year 11 Health and Movement Science continued their enthusiasm to learn about their bodies and health of Australians. They worked well together in small groups to collaboratively investigate an area of interest where they created a research question, hypothesis, collected data and compared this to existing data. Topics were interesting: Sociocultural status on golf participation; effects of alcohol on recovery of Rugby League players; the effectiveness of control measures on tobacco use; nutrition choices and effects on soccer performance; correlation between resting heart rates and endurance running; effect of Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness on performance; investigation of spinal stress fractures in cricketers; comparison between younger and older generations perceptions of health.
A highlight was our excursion to the ACU High Performance Hub, Blacktown. Here the boys tested their lactate levels, reaction time and participated in biomechanical analysis of forces and the Wingate test. Later this term they will experience their first two hour examination for Health and Movement Science.
11SLR participated in netball and hockey units and other games and sports. These boys and girls know how to have fun and enjoy some robust friendly competition banter during practical lessons
Year 12 PDHPE have nearly finished their course and should have plenty of time to study. They should review feedback from the Trial HSC and focus on these areas. We wish them all the best for their future and hope their HSC results are what they worked for and deserved.
Year 12 SLR had fun trying their hand at golf, archery, badminton and table tennis. They just couldn’t get enough of any sport. Mr Carpenter accompanied them to the golf driving range and I was lucky enough to go with them to Central Coast Indoor Archery. They’ve really improved their skills in both!
Some fantastic, fun, relevant excursions and incursions to finish the year! What’s still to come?
Year 12 SLR: Aquatics at Gosford Pool (October/November) – Analysing a person’s stroke and correcting the technique.
Year 7 PDHPE: Water Safety at Gosford Pool (November) – performing life saving techniques to rescue themselves and others.
Year 10 PASS: Raw Challenge (November) – an obstacle course looking at fitness and FUN in the mud.
Year 10 PDHPE: Mock Interviews (November) – during the Year 10 Activities weeks. One of the most life relevant experiences, an interview with employers from the ADF and local communities. Mrs Dignam has organised these interviews along with other life relevant activities such as work experience, Care of Country excursion and many others.
Year 9 PASS: Snorkelling and hiking – a great day at Bouddi National Park, fitness, care for environment, games and chilling.
Another full and engaging year in PDHPE. Life skills and knowledge to keep us healthy, safe and happy. Thanks to the PDHPE staff for delivering these courses over the year.

Book Week Magic
Book Week Magic at St Edward’s College: A Celebration of Stories and Imagination
St Edward’s College was transformed into a literary wonderland during Book Week in Week 5, as students and staff alike embraced the joy of reading through a vibrant array of activities that brought stories to life. From swashbuckling pirates to mischievous wizards, the Campus buzzed with creativity, laughter, and a shared love of books. The 2025 theme for Book Week was ‘Book an Adventure’.
Dress-Up Day: Characters Come Alive
One of the week’s most anticipated events was the “Dress as Your Favourite Book Character” day. The halls were filled with Harry Potters, White Rabbits, Sherlocks, and even a few dinosaurs, as both students and teachers stepped into the shoes of beloved literary figures. The effort and imagination on display were nothing short of spectacular, turning the school into a living storybook.
Photobooth Fun
To capture the magic, a themed Photobooth was set up, giving everyone a chance to strike a pose in costume. Whether solo or with friends, the snapshots were a perfect way to commemorate the week and celebrate the characters that have inspired us.
Kahoot Challenge: Battle of the Book Buffs
Students tested their literary knowledge in a fast-paced Kahoot challenge, answering questions about classic and contemporary books. The competition was fierce, but the atmosphere was electric, with cheers erupting as students raced to the top of the leaderboard. It was a brilliant way to combine learning with fun—and maybe even discover a new favourite read.
Scavenger Hunt: A Story-Fueled Adventure
Designed by the ever-creative Mr Le Page, the book-themed scavenger hunt sent students on a quest across the campus, solving clues and uncovering hidden clues inspired by famous stories. The hunt encouraged teamwork, critical thinking, and a deeper appreciation for the books behind each clue.
Treasure Island Room: A Journey into Fiction
One of the standout experiences was the immersive Treasure Island room, where students stepped into the world of Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic tale. With maps, props, and pirate-themed puzzles, the room offered a hands-on adventure that made literature feel thrilling and real.
Daily Competitions: Celebrating Bookish Brilliance
Throughout the week, daily competitions kept the excitement alive—from emoji guessing the book titles to finding Harry Potter characters around the library and book in a jar challenges. Winners were celebrated for their creativity and enthusiasm, proving that Book Week is as much about participation as it is about passion.
A Week to Remember
Book Week at St Edward’s wasn’t just a celebration—it was a reminder of the power of stories to connect, inspire, and transform. Whether through costumes, daily activities, or treasure hunts, students engaged with literature in ways that were playful, meaningful, and unforgettable. Here's to the books that shape us—and the joy of sharing them together. We can’t wait to see what everyone will come dressed as in 2026.

Under 14’s Cochrane Cup – Northern NSW Final
The Mighty Under 14s embarked on their first away trip to play the Northern NSW Final against St Paul’s, Kempsey, at North Tuncurry Oval, Forster.
We travelled up on Wednesday afternoon, had a light training session to shake off the nerves, and finished the day with a team dinner.
The next morning started slowly as the boys settled their nerves with breakfast and tidied their cabins before the 11:00 am kick-off.
After weeks of wet weather, the NRL Development managed to secure a dry, sandy field for the game. St Paul’s Catholic College came out firing, crossing for a try on just the third tackle. Standing behind the posts, our boys quickly realised they were in for a real contest.
They regrouped well, and strong carries from Saint, Nick, and Ashton saw us start to win the battle up the middle. Lincoln, Ambrose, Riley, Kody, and Rocco drove us out of trouble with solid runs, while Cruz, Harry, Jacob, and Fraser put in some big defensive efforts. With Tyler, Max, Finn, Beau, and Tobi getting the ball in good positions, we were able to shift the bigger St Paul’s pack around. A burst of tries gave us a 12–6 lead at halftime, despite a fierce southerly wind making kicking conditions tough.
At the break, we reminded the boys that St Paul’s would come out strong again—and they did, scoring in the opening set to level the scores. Once more, our boys dug in, with powerful runs and tough defence helping us regain control. When we crossed to go ahead 18–12, momentum was with us and it felt like we might pull away. Unfortunately, a couple of disallowed tries—held up over the line—halted our charge. St Paul’s then grabbed a late try and nailed a brilliant sideline conversion into the wind to tie things up. In the dying minutes, we threw everything at their line, but their desperate scramble defence held us out.
With the score locked at 18-all, the match went to Golden Point. Losing the toss meant we were running into the wind. A nervous start turned into excitement as Kody surged upfield and was brought down just a metre short of the line. St Paul’s then wrestled back possession and spent several sets camped on our line. Our defence was outstanding, repelling multiple raids and charging down a couple of field goal attempts. But on the last play of the first period of extra time, St Paul’s managed to regather a loose ball, swing it wide, and finally break our desperate scramble defence to seal the win.
It was a cliffhanger of a match with nothing separating the two sides. One more tackle might have seen us celebrating instead—but that’s football. While the boys were disappointed, they should be immensely proud of how they carried themselves on and off the field across the two-day trip. Their behaviour in public, their sportsmanship during and after the game, and their effort in such a high-pressure final are all a credit to them.
Well done on a fantastic season, boys!

Junior Basketball CSBB Championship
The 2025 St Edward’s College Junior Boys Basketball team competed in the CSBB Championship on 25 August at Breakers Indoor Sports Stadium, Terrigal.
Playing in a high-intensity round-robin format, the team went undefeated in the group stage, displaying outstanding teamwork and skill against strong opposition from St Leo’s Catholic College, St Peter’s Catholic College, Mater Maria Catholic College, St Brigid’s Catholic College, MacKillop Catholic College, and St Paul’s Catholic College.
One of the tournament’s defining moments came in a nail-biting semifinal against St Brigid’s. With the score tied in overtime and only seconds remaining, James Blow calmly drained a deep three-pointer—a clutch shot that sealed the win and sent the crowd into a frenzy.
The grand final, however, brought their toughest challenge. After a strong start and matching St Peter’s for intensity early, St Edward’s struggled to contain a dominant second-half surge, eventually falling 41–28.
Across the tournament, the team averaged an impressive 30 points per game while limiting opponents to just 19—a reflection of both their defensive discipline and offensive execution. Despite this, it was the first time in nearly a decade that St Edward’s did not advance to the NSWCCC State Championships.
Keyan Lamabelawa, Sean Burnett, Blake Paulley, and Callan Atherton consistently provided scoring firepower, driving the team’s offense. Defensively, Ambrose Plunkett, Kody Teasdale, and Jack Duggan stood tall, shutting down key opposition players. Meanwhile, Jack Sullivan, Jamie Griffiths, James Blow, Jordan Ippolito, and Sebastian Mansour contributed invaluable rebounding, assists, and relentless hustle—ensuring the team remained competitive in every game.
