Cover: Year 9 Lightning Carnival

The other morning my son mentioned at

the breakfast table that he had noticed my

improved countenance and demeanour

over the past five years or so. For some

who may disagree with his assessment,

you would have had to know me then

to have perspective now. It is not a

coincidence that this new-found bonhomie

has bloomed since I became a part of the

CBC Fremantle community.

Over and over again, reference is made

about CBC Fremantle being more than

just a place of education, or place of work.

Students, parents, staff and locals all report

a sense of belonging and attachment. It

is an intangible quality that we are very

proud of, and seek to foster and grow in all

our interactions, planning, policies

and events.

Inclusive Community is one of the four

EREA Touchstones. It is, in my opinion,

the Touchstone that can cause greatest

challenge, because it is entirely about

the potential improved amenity of

others, sometimes at our own personal

expense. Inclusive Community requires

discernment, judgment, selflessness and

almost always means that many suffer

some inconvenience for the potential

improvements in a few. Inclusive

Community is not about algorithmic

consequences, rather it requires

differentiated pastoral and academic care.

On the other hand, exclusive community

From the Vice Principal

CBC Fremantle Newsletter | Week 7 Term 2 | Page 3

is much easier to manage. All you need

is a check list, and if the boxes are ticked,

you’re in, and if they’re not ticked, you’re

out. All you need to administer exclusive

community policy is to be able to read

criteria. In my life, both as student and

teacher, the great pastoral and academic

leaders were the ones who consistently

made good calls; who managed to achieve

the biggest gains with those in need whilst

minimising the effect on those who were

in a position to give. The art required to

manage an Inclusive Community is far

greater than an exclusive community, and

its success is gauged when the benefit/loss

quotient is as high as possible.

For many of us, especially in a world

that is dominated by statistics and data,

this concept is difficult. People in first

world countries are time poor and, as

a result, look for certainty. Certainty of

results, certainty of outcomes, certainty of

consequences. This is the same mindset

that has turned societies into economies,

passengers into customers, and patients

into clients. This is the mindset that

understands equality, but struggles with

coming to grips with equity. The most

mathematically challenged youth ever

to work at Domino’s will grasp the concept

of equality very quickly. Slicing up a pizza

into eight portions is a rudimentary task.

Producing a pizza that reflects the taste

and hunger of eight people is a much more

difficult construct. The first task is equality,

the second is equity. When asked how

they would like to be treated, most people

would prefer equity over equality. In an

inclusive community, we champion the

notion that everyone should be treated as

we would want to be treated.

Before I am inundated by emails from

Inclusive Community advocates about the

rare occasion where a student is asked

to leave an Edmund Rice school, what

Inclusive Community doesn’t mean is that

any child can do what they wish, and be

continually forgiven. The expense to the

entire community of an ongoing enrolment

can, in some instances, be deemed too

great to warrant its continuation, and

these decisions are always accompanied

with sadness. In the case of our College,

and our concept of ‘Today’s boys…

tomorrow’s gentlemen’, the benefit/loss

quotient I referred to earlier in this article

moves closer to equilibrium as a boy

becomes a young adult, and transgressions

in Year 12 are viewed more dimly than

those in Year 7. After five years in our

College, a young man should be showing a

dividend from the home/school education

partnership, and continuing absolution

of inappropriate behaviour may not be in

anyone’s best interest.

CBC Fremantle is an Inclusive Community

we can all be proud of. I hope your

understanding of the concept enables

you to guide your son throughout his life’s

journey. If one ever needs reminding of

the importance of Inclusive Community, a

quick read of the Gospels will help explain.

When the scribes and the Pharisees saw

that He was eating with the sinners and tax

collectors, they said to His disciples, “Why

is He eating and drinking with tax collectors

and sinners?” And hearing this, Jesus said

to them, “It is not those who are healthy

who need a physician, but those who are

sick; I did not come to call the righteous,

but sinners.” Gospel of Mark 2.16, 17

Community cookbook: a call for recipes

CBC Fremantle is proud to be a part of raising good young men

of our community, who have the skills and courage to face and

overcome challenges and to form positive, mutually beneficial

relationships. The gentlemen of CBC are the guardians of the

future, and their positive male contribution to our society

provides us all with hope and faith in a better world.

To highlight the journey from today’s boy to tomorrow’s

gentleman, CBC is planning to produce a community cookbook

celebrating all that is nurturing and resilient about our young men

and their families. A timeless collection of recipes that encourages

our young men to be culinary heroes from their first foray in the

kitchen, whether it is coping with a simple breakfast for Mother’s

Day, wooing a romantic interest (it will happen!), or providing

hearty meals for their children when the time comes.

How you can help• Submit your favourite family recipe to us with specific quantities

(eg millilitres, grams, tablespoons, cups, etc, and in Australian

standard measuring) and easy to follow instructions. Your recipes

will need to be tried and tested prior to submission to ascertain the

correct quantities.

• Please specify how many people the recipe will feed.

• We are specifically seeking dishes that hold a place in your heart,

and are particularly enjoyed by your son. If your contribution is

included, your family will be acknowledged in the final publication.

• Degree of difficulty is from zero to hero, but tasty dishes with

a focus on classic simplicity appealing to all ages would be

particularly suitable.

• Recipes will need to be in a ‘cut and paste’ format, for example

included in the body of an email or in a Word document.

You are invited to contribute to our community cookbook and help us acknowledge the traditions of our College, the love and support of our families, and the journey of today’s boys…tomorrow’s gentlemen.

CBC Fremantle Newsletter | Week 7 Term 2 | Page 11

• Your submission may not make the final book – but don’t let

that hold you back. The sooner you send in your fabulous family

recipe, the better the chance that it will be included.

• Stories about the dish are also happily accepted, for example

who passed on the recipe, which cuts of meat are best, or

perhaps a particular occasion when you served the dish.

CBC has a long and proud association with the Fremantle

community, so please feel free to mention particular landmarks

or places you shop if appropriate to your tale.

The publication will sell for cost price and be available to purchase

for members of the CBC community and extended families and

friends.Please address any enquiries to Cherie Butcher at

events@cbcfremantle.wa.edu.au or 9430 2001.

Pasta al Fornofrom Domenic Burgio This is a dish my mum used to prepare for every major occasion, or as a special treat. It can be made as rich, or spicy as one wishes, simply by adding more dried meats or chili. Makes enough for a 40cm x 40 cm baking tray – a single serve is about 10cm x 10cm.

INGREDIENTS150-250g diced coppa (1 slice)1 cacciatore sausage (as spicy as you like)200-300g ham (1 slice)100-200g prosciutto di Parma (1 slice)150-200g provolone piccante6 eggs200g grated Parmegiano Reggiano1.5 kg premium beef mince5 bottles homemade tomato sauce (can use generic brands – about 3-4 litres)1 large clove garlic, slicedExtra virgin olive oil – enough to fry the garlic1.0 kg rigatoni 200g shredded mozzarella

METhOD

Making the mixtureMy mum used to dice the meats into 1cm cubes, but with modern technology, my dad likes to mince the meats and provolone. This requires you to buy them in a single slice.

Once all the meats and provolone are put through the mincer try and work the mixture by hand so that all the ingredients are evenly spread. If you are dicing the ingredients, keep them separate until you spread them on each layer.

Separate the egg yellow from the whites. Cook the yolks and add to the mixture. Add half of the grated Parmigiano Reggiano.

A taste of things to come...To encourage your contributions to the CBC cookbook, every fortnight we will

provide you with a tasty recipe from the CBC community that your boys are bound to love.

CBC Fremantle Newsletter | Week 7 Term 2 | Page 13

To prepare the raguIn a large pot lightly sauté the sliced garlic.

Add the beef mince, and fry it until the moisture dissipates,

stirring continually so it doesn’t stick.

Once the mince appears dry, add the tomato sauce.

Cook slowly for about an hour, and add some basil for taste.

Once the ragu sauce is ready, pre-heat the oven to 180 degrees.

Putting it all togetherCook the rigatoni until a little al’dente – the pasta will cook more in the oven.

Beat the egg whites until very stiff, this will be the topping of the pasta.

Drain the rigatoni and layer the bottom of a 40cm x 40cm baking tray with the ragu, just

enough to cover the base.

Add a layer of rigatoni, and then a layer of the mixture of meats, provolone, grated

Parmigiano and eggs. This is followed by a layer of mozzarella.

Repeat the process, layering in order the ragu, rigatoni, mixture and mozzarella until the

baking tray is full.

Finish with a layer of ragu, as well as the rest of the grated Parmigiano.

Spread the stiff egg whites evenly over the dish.

Bake for about 25 minutes until the egg whites turn a golden brown.

Remove from oven and leave for about 15-20 minutes as the cooling mozzarella

will bind the other ingredients.

Enjoy!
