NOW that the College ha · completed a success fu l capital fund rai sing camp<li gn: now that the ideas of the Sambell Cemre are fast becoming a three-dimensional realit y: no\\ that the Art Room and the Maintenance Workshop are nearing completion. we are deeply invo lved in the area or phys ical resource!>. T o the mnsider.to the neighbours of the College. there are tangible :.igns of growth and development at the All Saims· College. But growth has occurred in less tangible areas al so. The academic and non-academic staff now totals 90 peopl e. lt would be easy to consider the~e people as merely employees. people who cc working at A ll Saints" College as j ust another job. ju~t another school. lt would be easy to highlight problems and minor ma11crs overl ooked or forgo11en by a staff member in the course of a bu sy day. or week. lt is not so easy however. 10 find exnmples o f times when staff are praised or thanked for the day 10 day excellence, ca re and ex tra efforts that they put imo the College commu nity.

PRINCIPAL'S REPORT

During the last few years. especially during the l a~ t decade. more and more has been cxpec ted of a College ~ta ff member. at a time w henthae has pos~ ibly been le ~s public recognition of their selfless efforts. Independent schools in panicul;lr. place ex tra demand~ on their staiT. at times, outside o r the n orm~l oper<lling hours. I do not aim here 10 highlight any panicular ~x amp le as more imporl<lllllhan any other. but the recem " Camp Week" included nearly all

staff. both academic and non-academic. in ex tra time above and beyond norma l expectation:-. including :~ lot of evening and weekend work. in addition 10 the dem and~ o f the week itsel f. We do have an excellelll stall They arc hard working. keen to develop the ~tucle nt s in their care. keen 10 ex tend thcmsel ve~ through membership of their assot:iati ons. through further study. and a11endance at weekend in-servi ce courses and College$pOnsored professional deve lopment. T heir quality is reflected in their willingness to engage in se If-crit icism and genuine refl ection. I simply encourage readers of CQ 10 nunure the Maff through simple affi rmation ~ ami appreciative comments. T he whole College mem ber~hi p will bcneli t from such an approach.

"So then we must all,·ays aim ut those things that hrmg peace and that help lt! stren~then one wtmher." (Rlmwm 12.1'./ 9)
