Girl’s Night In
PRINCIPAL’S
MESSAGE
I
n the past century women
gained the rights to vote, hold
leadership
positions,
and
build careers, and yet it continues
happen all too often that females are
devalued. On Thursday, November
13th, our 8th annual Girls’ Night
In, organized entirely by students,
placed a high value on its participants
- 175 female students and teachers.
would like to begin by thanking our staff
and students for their hard work and
efforts in Semester One. Many great
things happened at St. Augustine during
Semester One and we are proud of our students
and their accomplishments in their academics, in
their clubs and on their teams.
First we would like to congratulate math teacher,
Nancy Smith who has just retired. Ms. Smith has
been teaching at St. Augustine for twelve year
and will be missed by staff and students. Her
many hours of dedicated after school math help
will not be forgotten by appreciative students.
Our school continues to strive to be more
environmentally friendly.
Working towards
being a greener school we installed a water bottle
refilling station outside of our gym in December.
The fountain counter displayed that within the
first month we have already saved 229 plastic
water bottles from land fill sites. February 5th
we will be participating in National Sweater
Day. National Sweater Day brings an awareness
opportunity for students to learn about the
importance of saving energy, while at the same
time, reminding us to use less heat throughout
the winter.
In 2015 some of us have set challenges for
ourselves, resolved to do better and made New
Year’s resolution. One month into the year we may
be struggling to keep those resolutions as change
is not easy. In an article written on December
31st, ten of the Pope’s most memorable quotes
from 2014 were compiled in the form of New
Year’s resolutions.
I think they are worthwhile reviewing as a
Catholic school and a Catholic community we are
reminded as a people of faith where our focus
should be placed.

@DPCDSBSchools
The night started with a liturgy which
integrated different faiths. The guest
speaker of the night, Tina Quiroga,
described her experience of building
1. Don’t Gossip –there is no such thing as innocent slander
2. Finish your meals – there are so many hungry in the
world
3. Make time for others – be generous with your time
4. Choose the “more humble” purchase – less is often more
5. Meet the poor “in the flesh” help create change for the
poor
6. Stop judging others – be gentle with others
7. Befriend those who disagree – communicate with each
healthier life habits with the support
of her female English teacher.
Afterwards, awesome food was
served, most of which was prepared
by the school’s hospitality program.
Impromptu dancing followed, setting
the stage for an evening of fun.
Andrea Abello, a grade 12 student
who was in charge of face painting
said, “Wow! I can’t believe how much
of a success this night is. I met and
talked to so many people I would
have been too shy to approach during
the regular hours of school.”
Activities were held all over the
school. Many girls who enjoyed
physical activity or just wanted to
try something new went to the gym
for Zumba. Hair, nails and makeup
were done at the cosmetology room
for those who wanted to explore
different styles. Others who enjoyed
making crafts could make picture
frames or buttons for a memorable
souvenir. A coffee house indulged
our artistic types.
Mrs. Kabelin, one of the many female
teachers who came to Girls’ Night
In said, “The evening was truly a
positive experience for all involved!
I especially enjoyed watching the
level of maturity displayed by the
girls as they moved about choosing
activities to be involved in.” It is clear
that all the students felt comfortable
with one another and felt included.
Each girl received a hand made
bracelet before they left as a
reminder that we are all part of a
bigger picture – a picture that values
ourselves and each other.
Shanu Xavier
other
8. Make commitments, such as marriage – have courage
9. Make it a habit to “ask the Lord” – what do you want me
to do?
10.Be Happy! – love your neighbour
The list presents us with challenges and lessons from the
Pope that we can bring with us in 2015. We can use the list
as a guide and I hope it leads us all to number ten. We look
forward to a year of growth together.
We are excited about the second semester. I hope
you and your families are all blessed with health and
happiness in 2015.
God Bless

he students taking French will be
attending the annual Cinefranco
(French Film Festival) in Toronto on
Thursday, February 26, 2015. The film is the
North American premiere of “La Belle et La
Bête” (Beauty and the Beast). This is a new
production of the legendary 17th century
fairy tale by Madame Marie Leprince de
Beaumont. While students are familiar with
the tale, the film will provide them with the
opportunity to compare this production

GUIDANCE
ART DEPARTMENT
W
e are very proud here at St. Augustine to be able to offer a wide range of art courses to
inspire and challenge our students. Art encourages higher order thought processes that
are different than many traditional academics. In art, there is no one correct answer.
Therefore, the student is forced to analyze the problem given to them and come up with their
own unique solution. This type of creative problem solving is a valuable skill. Students that
are able to solve problems creatively have an edge in the job market. The art classes offered at
St. Augustine give students a greater chance to excel in school. Art appeals to all senses. Art
students see demonstrations of the process they are to complete, read or do research about the
art, and then complete the process themselves. By incorporating all of these types of learning,
students who put in the time will find success.
Students have been involved in drawing, painting, sculpture, printmaking and photography.
In addition, in our craft class, students with a wide range of abilities have been learning to
embroider, make paper, create jewelry and have even learned how to knit. Students in all
classes have been extending concepts learned in class through the creation of independent art
projects culminating in an art show hosted by the grade 12 visual art class. All of our students
should be very proud of all of their accomplishments this semester.

@DPCDSBSchools
A
s semester one draws
to a close, our grade 12
data has begun its yearly
demystification. In September our
senior kids were inundated with
graduation, college, university,
work and apprentice information.
Colleges and universities had set up
what seemed like a permanent camp
in room 114, and for the first time in
high school, our students were faced
with the daunting task of answering
the question that plagues all of us
from infancy: what are you going
to be when you grow up? Well, we
can run in life, but we can’t hide, and
our grade 12s are to be commended
for overcoming the debilitating
fear of the unknown and focusing
on the future. We currently house
270 grade 12 students, and to date,
140 have applied to colleges across
Ontario while 110 have applied to
Universities, and all with deadlines
still open as this newsletter went to
print. And so begins the next round
of senior stress as these students
await admission offers whilst
whittling away at nails on both
hands.
Simultaneously, our grade 9,
10, and 11 students have been
selecting courses on myBlueprint.
Many thanks to them and their
parents as our selection success
has been outstanding. All parents
can continue to access this
website throughout the year for
the purposes of checking up on
future course options, college and
university programs and general
5
workplace inventories.
By February we will also begin
our quest for student leaders as
our annual Creating Leadership
Amongst Youth (CLAY) search
begins for grade 10 students to
attend McMaster University for
a three day forum on becoming
tomorrow’s leaders. This occurs
alongside the COLS Leadership
opportunity that exists in
conjunction with the University of
Toronto in Mississauga.
And alas, we bid farewell to Mrs.
Robinson, who heads back to
Science classes next semester. Her
positivity and effervescent energy
levels will be missed by all staff and
students in Guidance.

F
Bird-Kylie Schroeder
ive grade 9 and 10 classes participated in Accelerated
Reader® this semester. In this program each
student reads novels of their choosing, typically
at the beginning of class two or three times each week,
and whenever they want in their free time at home and
elsewhere.
“ The reactions really
helped to reinforce
the pride I take in my
work”.
When a student finishes reading their book, their
comprehension is checked in an online multiple choice test
then they choose their next novel. Merit of the AR program
is evident when you look at the percentage of students who
have earned full marks for their reading.
AR readers drafted reviews for their novels, which
doubled as literacy practice for the OSSLT task: writing
an open response to a narrative reading selection. The
polished copy was handwritten on bookmarks, which
will sit inside book covers to help future students
selecttheir novels.
For the purposes of these statistics, the word read should
be understood to mean passed the test for the book, with at
least 70% correct answers.
As of Jan. 14th, full marks for this self-directed reading
program were earned by:
58% of Ms. Dimitrio’s period 1; 90% of these students read
at least 2 books
45% of Ms. Dimitro’s period 4; 30% read 4 or more books
50% of Ms. Fleming period 2; 77 books were read by this
class of 21 students
62% of Ms. Fleming period 3; the top reader in this class
read 22 books
44% of Ms. Pavic period 1; 100% of students read at least
one book
Furthermore, 65% of all students independently read
at least 2 books above and beyond their class reading
materials.
GRADE TWELVE VISUAL ART
T
he grade twelve visual art students found the art show to
be a great way to showcase their talents and receive well
constructed criticism from their peers. They thank St.
Augustine for giving them the opportunity to express themselves
and hope this will be an event for future aspiring artists.
Student ownership for research questions and collaborative inquiry are in focus in our library. Early in the semester
grade 9 classes during period 4 participated in an inquiry about epidemics in society, drawing out different questions
and beginning to find answers. Grade 10 science classes completed exit tickets responding to three indicators of
their inquiry process: tracking search terms, use of sources, and note making methods. Teaching and reinforcing an
inquiry process continues to drive teaching in the library.
Digital supports for learning continue to be a school-wide focus. Our 28 wifi accessible tablets have been hot
commodities all semester, the ‘cart’ has been split up by as many as five teachers at one time. The use of online tools
has ranged from www.socrative.com, to www.padlet.org. Teachers report that one of their favourite student uses
for the tablets is researching on the web, with each group sharing one tablet to support their inquiry.
Ebooks of the fiction variety are our next step in collection development. Thanks to School Council support, we are
at the forefront of this initiative, working closely with Library Services at the Board, to bring digital fiction to the
user. Stay tuned for these exciting developments.
In second semester Kalyna Bobyk will enthusiastically fill the Teacher Librarian post while I embark on a leave to
spend more time with my own teenagers.
Best,
Ms. Whittaker

THEOLOGY DEPARTMENT NEWS 2015
COMPUTER SCIENCE
T
he Theology department is (as usual) hard at work to give your
child the best possible high school experience. This is what has
been happening lately: Game Room – The St. Augustine after school
game room has been open for this year and will continue to do so for the
second semester. The cost to be a member is $10 for the entire semester.
The game room is an after school program for kids who want to hang out,
play games, and socialize. We are offering table tennis, chess, dominoes,
board games, cards, and video games for all students who want to socialize
after hours in a supervised environment. The location is Seminar room
A, right beside the Religion Department office. Please see Mr. Brocke for
payment to be a semester 2 member.
Grade 9 trip –We
have begun a new
program this past
semester in which
we take your
grade 9 class on
a walking trip
to St. Eugene
De Mazenod
Catholic church
on Steeles
Avenue. This
impressive
building was
consecrated in
2012 and will
be a regular part
of our grade 9
program. A guided
tour of the church
(including the upper choir
area), the relics of St. John
Paul the Second, and an explanation of the sanctity and sacred objects in
the church is part of the experience.
T
wo teams of grade 10 and 11 computer science students worked very hard to create games using the
GameMaker program. They presented their games at the Sheridan College Game Making Contest on December
17th, 2014. They also enjoyed an hour playing at PLAYDIUM.
Great job and great experience. Team members included:
Grade 11’s : Dilraj Tiwana, Vatsal Shreekant, Vatsal Wahi
Grade 10’s: Sumeet Dhatt, Arjun Dhatt, Harkawal Toor, Mankirat Kang.
Retreats – Our retreat program has
been very successful, with students
attending Dr. Simone’s warehouse to
work at feeding the under privileged,
the Knights table in Brampton, a nature
walk, and outdoor activities at Camp
Brebeuf in Acton also interactive games,
community building, and prayer at St.
Jerome’s Catholic Church.
March For Life – Once again, Mr.
Ziemnicki is tirelessly organizing the
annual March for Life campaign in which
students travel to Ottawa to protest
for the rights of the unborn. This is a
very moving and powerful event which
changes the lives of our students forever.
It will take place this year on May 13th15th in Ottawa and Montreal. There is
also a Youth Forum Day that takes place
on April 21st at St. Francis Xavier Parish.
Cost of the trip is approximately $200.00
which includes accommodation, busing,
tickets to shows, one lunch, a candlelight vigil, sightseeing in Ottawa and
Montreal and the Peace march.
COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY
T
he grade 9, 10, and 11 computer technology classes completed their CPTs that involved interfacing assignments.
Interfacing involves applying fundamental programming, constructs to develop programs that interact with
external electronic components. The grade 9s used Visual Basic to control light patterns from LEDs in their
models. The grade 10s created an “Operation” type game using TURING to sense the state of switches and circuits, and
to control output to LEDs and buzzers or piezo speakers. The grade 11s wrote programs to control LEDs, transistors,
7 segment displays, and stepper motors that were incorporated into their models which represented real-world
applications.
Wake a thon – This past November the Religion department hosted the annual 24 hour Wake a Thon. Students
stayed up all night in school playing video games, doing karaoke, watching movies, and playing hockey, soccer and
basketball. About 100 students participated in which they were fed dinner, and a fresh home cooked breakfast
was served in the morning. All fundraising went towards the Nicaragua Social Justice project in which we send
students to Nicaragua to help the disadvantaged and to learn what truly is
the preferential option for the poor.
Other Board sponsored events that St. Augustine will be participating at include:
March 3rd - Ordinandi dinner - All Day youth event at the Pearson Convention
Center.
March 25th - Poverty Summit - Dr. Simone will be guest speaker. $10 per student.
April 17th – Justice Symposium - Up to 10 students to attend.
Yours in Christ,

COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY
e would like to congratulate this semester’s Co-op students on a job well done and would like to wish them
all the best in their future endeavors. Our Career Showcase, held on Jan. 13, 2015 was very successful and
highlighted the diversity of career interests by our students. We would like to thank the following guests for
taking the time out of their busy schedules to attend and share their thoughts and experiences with our students,
parents, and employers: Irene Mota – Pathways and Transitions Consultant; Chris Pearson – Project Manager, SWCI
for Sheridan College; Martine Lewis – Principal St. Augustine; Kathleen Ware – Chaplain; and Paul Donovan – Head of
Guidance and Co-operative Education. The following sent their regrets; Lucy Papaloni – Superintendent Mississauga
Brampton Central Family; Mary Davis – Academic Consultant Experiential Learning, Ontario Youth Apprenticeship
Program (OYAO) and Technological Education; Anna Da Silva – Trustee for Mississauga Brampton Central; Bruno
Sacco – Dual Credit/Student Success Teacher and Domenic De Marco – Dual Credit/Student Success Teacher. We
would also like to thank the following Co-op students for sharing their experiences with the audience: Eddy Nicks,
Dana Da Silva and Brittany Chung.
All of our community partners, parents, faculty and students commented positively on this event. We thank them
for their contributions. We appreciate the time and effort our employers dedicate to training and mentoring each
student placed with them. Without their continued support and expertise our program would not be the success
that it is. We would also like to compliment our students on their outstanding achievements, efforts and dedication
to the co-op program and to the strides they have made in their own personal growth. Our students are successful
in the workplace to a large degree because of the combined efforts of our Administration, Guidance and Faculty, who
all play a role in preparing them for their future endeavors.
This semester we were very pleased to enroll 3 of our students into the OYAP Program in the skilled trades. We would
like to congratulate these students and those who choose to continue onward and pursue an apprenticeship signing.
In addition, we registered 8 students this semester into Dual Credit courses held at Sheridan, Humber, and George
Brown. Every student participated fully in their college courses and achieved great success.
Co-operative Education is experiential learning. The end of each semester brings with it a final reflective moment
from our students. Without exception, each student comments on the amount of hard work they had to dedicate to
their placements. At the same time, each student recognizes and values how much they have gained both personally
and professionally. They all firmly believe that Co-op is a tremendous opportunity and recommend this experience
to all high school students.
We would like to encourage all students interested in a Co-op experience to see their Guidance counselor and fill out
a Co-op application form as soon as possible. Please include a current resume with your application form and return
this to your counselor. We are currently interviewing students for Co-op placements for February of 2015. Early
deadline placements for February 2015 have already been completed and the Dual Credit opportunities for Co-op
students for February 2015 are now listed on the St. Augustine Website. Please contact the Co-op department if you
have any questions.
Many types of placements have early application deadlines for Semester 1, September 2015. We will be handing out
applications for the Military Co-op for Feb. 2016 by May of 2015. Students interested in careers in: Police, Media
and Film, Fire Department ( Education only), Hospitals, City of Brampton, Mississauga News and the trades such as
Electrician, Plumber, Tool and Die, Construction Craft, HVAC, Millwright, Welding, etc., need to apply by March, 2015.
Dual Credit opportunities for September, 2015 will begin to be processed as early as May, 2015. Students interested
in Dual Credit opportunities should visit the St. Augustine SS website and read through all the current offerings.
Upon receipt of your application form, the Co-op Department will contact you for your Co-op interview. Students
are reminded that they must be in either Grade 11, (second semester) or 12, and can choose either a 4, 3, or 2 credit
program. We look forward to meeting and interviewing all new Co-op candidates.

St. Augustine: Supporting Student Voice and Student Leadership through Future
Aces- Herb Carnegie Foundation.
T
he week-end of November 14-16, 2014, eight students from grades nine and ten
travelled to Horseshoe Valley resort to attend the Herb Carnegie Future Aces Student
Empowerment Conference. Thank you to the Royal Bank of Canada who sponsored the
St. Augustine students for the week-end. Feedback from the students indicated that they valued
the time spent together and the informative and fun filled sessions were just amazing. According
to one of our students, “It was a week- end well spent”. Our students made many friends and
returned to school with a different view on how to get involved in their community and make a
difference. It was a fantastic student centered week-end, they had the opportunity to voice their
opinion in a non-threatening environment, they participated in workshops, provided feedback
from group presentations, and they created advertisements, and they even entertained the
teachers as they prepared and participated in “ACES Idol” and many other fun activities.
The students also had a chance to
hear stories from student athletes
and how they overcome adversities.
The message was one of hope,
stand up for peace and what is
right. Finally, the students were
taught the importance of service
and how crucial it is to give back
and pay it forward to others in their
community.
