MESSAGE
FROM
Every year the Chairman of the Board of All Saints' College reports to the Synod of the Perth Diocese. The report usually charts the progress of the College and highlights events which occurred during the year since the pre vious report. Other Colleges do like wise, and it IS an annual reminder that the College is part of a larger grouping, namely the Church. During the year meetmgs between Principals and Boards of Governors take place regularly in formal meetings such as those organised by the Associa tion of Independent Schools, and infor mally as well. In March this year the Principal and I attended the Consecra tion and Dedication of the Chapel of St Hilda of Whitby at St Hilda's Angli can School for Girls. It was a moving occasion during which Archbishop Carnley preached a very special sermon called "Connections" which developed the theme of the making of connections covering time and geographical space. Where people share a common set of interests and commitments they con tribute in a larger way because of their inter-connected ness. In this year's report to Synod I tried to take a step back from the day-to-day affairs of the Co])ege and paused a while to reOect on the stage which the College has reached. I remember so clearly the task which the late Archbishop, His Grace the Most Reverend Geoffrey SambelJ gave to us as a Foundation Board, to estab lish the College in the developing area of Leemingj Bull Creek. Since the day our Foundation Chairman Mr Jack Howson marched us all over the rough undeveloped site, we have been report ing to Synod on the progress in the scope of curriculum, the growing number of students attending and a comprehensive building programme. Returning to the Board of Manage ment four years ago after an absence of some years I realised this growth had gone on without pause. However, this year we find ourselves at a new stage of development. The College now has a total of 9I6 students ranging from Pre-Primary to Year Twelve. The building programme has included major extensions and ren ovations to the Administration Build-

ing. This will enable the integration of the Foundation Office into the College Administration as well as providing for the expanded staff in the new Staff Room and a Board Meeting Room more appropriate to the needs of the larger and more complex College. The policy j planning committee is looking at refurbishingj renewing some of the existing buildings. We realise that All Saints' College is no longer new; rather like an established garden it needs ongoing planning and atten tion. Having reached this stage in our development, gIves us reason to be pleased with the work we have done. More Lmportantly it gives the College a chance to take stock and move forward with developmg an Anglican education which fulfils the needs and aspirations of members of the now long SInce deve loped area of Leemingj Bull Creek. The College Foundation has com missioned a comprehensive survey of parent and past parent groups as well as past and present student groups. In addition, research within the College, into the specific learning and social needs of both boys and girls within the co-educational environment has been carried out. The Board and Principal will use this information to formulate the forward planning policy. The Col lege realises how important it is not to lose the momentum to move forward and to remain abreast of new develop ments in education. In all these endeavours and develop ments we are aware that we are con nected to the first Board of Manage ment. We know we can call on the experience and wisdom of others in our Anglican community, parents and past scholars and the Foundation are ready to help. It is this framework of inter connectedness which makes it possible to do much more than a small group of Governors could attempt alone. We should then be grateful for the inherit ance of the goodwill, generosity and hard work of so many. May I wish you a peaceful and holy Christmas and a happy 1995. J

INTERVIEW
WITH
THE
PRINCIPAL
What has been the highlight of your at all. The only thing that I can say is years as Principal at All Saints' that 1 had a great time when I was at College? school and maybe that's been the con nection, but 1 hadn't thought of it in The highlight has been seeing it grow terms of a career. and develop with some sort of reputa tion amongst the community and see How did you come to be a Principal? ing young people come back to the How? Well it's an interesting thing. I College having made good in their lives talk to teachers about their careers and and saying "Well, I believe some of it 1say to them, they may not be thinking has been the result of having been at of being a Head of Department or a the College. Also the lovely people that Deputy or Assistant Principal, or Prin I've met, all of them. " cipal, now, but one day they11 see an Do you think any improvements advertisement in the paper and they'll should be made to the College? think aha, that's the job for me. And 1 I think one of the challenges for an guess that it's a point of personal readi independent school in this day and age ness. And I mean obviously I'd been is that there are always improvements the Head of an English Department, to be made, and so for example at the I'd been a Deputy Principal and they were steps on the way. As much as moment we have a Planning Commit tee which is planning the next ten anything, it was opportunities that years. We hope to have that plan ready came my way, rather than me saying, by the end of 1995 to take us to the I've got a career path and I am going year 2005. It is simply to look at as to be that when I am twenty-five and that when I am thirty-five it's just, many ways as we can of improving circumstances. what we do, not just in terms of build ings, but also the services we offer. So Do you ever get embarrassed when
for example we might be saying could speaking in front of a crowd?
we do more for students; could we do I haven't really been embarrassed more for families? The improvement except I can remember one example element of schools is one of those when we had with us as guest speaker, which is ongoing and really quite com the Chief Justice, David Malcolm. I plex. And I suppose in a way, because had asked for his CV to be sent to me all the other independent schools are and it was in the days when fax paper also trying to improve, there is a sort of was photocopy paper. They didn't have in-built sense of competition too, special paper. I'd gone through his fax because you don't want to be left as obviously 1 wasn't going to read all behind. of his CV out to introduce him. I got a What do you think of the new adminis highlighter and 1 went through and tration block? highlighted all the things that I thought Well, it's a lot more comfortable and would be good, then just put it in my folder. When I opened my pages at it's good to have a place for the staff to properly sit down and eat. Even now in Speech Night all the things I wanted to a meeting, we've only just got enough say had suddenly become black. It was photosensitive paper and had a chemi room for the whole staff to sit down, so it's really quite a good project. 1 cal reaction so all that I wanted to say think the computers are more effec was just black lines. Luckily I had a reasonable memory and I ad-libbed it tively housed and having all the student for what seemed like a reasonable services down this side means that all the people who need to be seen have length of time. And the other embar rassment was when someone who I had good access. We've now got a good foyer where the student art work can known for many, many years, Bishop be seen. 1 think the improvements are Brian Kyme, came as a guest celebrant to our Eucharist and all of a sudden in most worthwhile. front of everyone when I was welcom When you were at school, did you ing him, 1 forgot his name. think you'd become a Principal in the future? (Continued on next page) Well there is a very short answer to that, no. I didn't think about that
10
What would you hope that a student from All Saints' College would take away with them? Well, we have a mission statement which says that we like people to fulfil their full potential and to become car ing and positive members of society. I think the most important thing, for me, is that they are happy, that they have a realistic understanding of their abilities, and they really do get on with people. In other words, they have an inner peace which allows them to get on with other people. Now, fine if people get exhibitions, and get four hundreds and all those other things, but 1 really think important personal characteristics are probably as important as anything. Whatever you end up doing, be it Med icine or grooming horses, you need to feel fulfilled. And the other thing which I say to parents and I hope is true, is that 1 believe there are some spiritual things in human beings, in other words, there are questions like, "Is there a heaven?", "What happens after we die?", all those sorts of things. I hope that our students are still thinking about those questions when they leave here, not because we have given them all the answers, but that we have helped them with the questions so that they continue to grow when they leave. How long have you been the Principal at A II Saints' College? Seven years, I am in my eighth year here. 1 started on 27th July 1987. What do you think of the proposal for the reshuffling of school holidays? It's interesting. We had a discussion about this at the Senior Staff meeting last Thursday. Most of the staff thought it was not a particularly good thing and the reason we really said we'd vote against it is that currently, we use the Term Three holidays to do the Year Twelve exams, so that we have more teaching time. So really, it would have a negative effect on our Year Twelves. Also, it's aim is to stop people coming here when it's really hot, in other words, the first two weeks. How ever, it's really hot all through March so two weeks wouldn't make much dif ference. It would be nice to have the long holiday, but we believe there are disadvantages in having the shorter holidays, when y?u think of ski trips
and those sorts of things that take place. It would just make it much harder. Do you have a role model? If so, who? Well, two people 1 suppose I think of as having been significant in my life. 1 mean when I studied history I did look at the autocratic people like Hitler and Mussolini and those sorts of people as a part of the study just to see how it was that they worked. And you might remember me giving talks to you at Peer Support on leadership. Of the two characters, one is Ghandi and the rea son he has always been something of a role model is because he made great achievements. Although there were lots of people killed when they had the par tition between India and Pakistan, throughout his life he was able to show that peaceful, non violent, non co operation was an effective way of bringing about change. He tried to do things peacefully. And another person, apart from Christ, would be Francis of Assisi. I'm involved with a group called the Third Order of St Francis and basi cally the things that appealed to me in his life were personal simplicity and humility and they were the two things which I feel are very important. Now you might say, you're the Principal, look at your flash office, that's not very simple, but 1look at an office or study like this as just simply like wearing a collar and tie. It's just part of the posi tion, it's not personally mine and whoever is here will have it and 1 think that it's important to have a room that people feel comfortable in. Both Ghandi and St Francis lived simple lives and thought of others - this is how I like to think about the world. 1 mean, I feel guilty in a way, when 1 fly interstate or when 1 go on a place somewhere, because I know that it uses 500,000 litres of fuel to go from one country to another. You know, that world travel isn't going to stop, but people need to be more conscious when they do something of what effect they are having on other people.
How do you see the College five years from now? Well, 1don't want to reveal some of our thoughts on planning for the moment, in terms of our ten-year plan, but I would say it won't be much
bigger. We don't really want to have a lot more students as we believe that with 638 in the Secondary School, we are a good size. It means we've got about a hundred and thirty to forty in a year and that means we can get to know the students. If it gets to two hundred or three hundred like some schools, 1as the Principal wouldn't know half the students by face, let alone by name. We probably won't have a swimming pool, but itll be on the agenda. Some of the resources that we have now will be finished oU more effectively, like folding seating in the theatre, that you bring out from the wall, the Junior School theatre closed in with a proper floor and so on. We do have to do some building and so we will probably have added some science laboratories and re-fashioned 'E' block because we are looking at technology in the whole area there and the library will be modified too. Currently we're using Science laboratories ninety-five percent of the time so they never get a rest and it's hard for the lab assistants to get in there and set up the lessons. What are the best and worst parts of being a Principal? Well, the best are some of the points that 1 made in the beginning. 1 meet some really fantastic people and I sup pose having the opportunity of influencing people's lives either directly or indirectly. Indirectly by developing programmes in the school where teachers influence the children's lives and individually, where 1 might have some influence on them. The worst is that there aren't enough hours in the day. I'd like to do more, get about more and teach more than 1do. The question that everyone's asking Why shave off the beard? A variety of things. One of them was that my beard started getting whiter. This is really quite personal now, but as my wife and I were getting on a Thames ferry in London when I was on study leave, this ticket collector said, "Have you got your OAP pass?", that's an Old Age Pensioner pass and I thought, "I don't look that old do I?". 1 think it was need of a change. I'd had it for twenty-six years, so my family is still getting used to the change. Natalie Dowling and Caroline Wise

STUDENT
COUNCIL
COLLEGE CAPTAIN
1994 was a year of many changes. It was the inaugural year of the new Houses, Durack and Cowan; it was the year Mr London shaved off his beard and moustache; and it was the year "c.c." became the same as "M.C." (Assembly) giving the Student Council a more direct means of communication with the students. A new-look adminis tration building and the Rugby 7's I Touch Football competition to boot, and 1994 looked set to be an exciting and interesting one for the Student Council. It was. The Student Executive pre pared for the year at a Dwellingup camp last December, where we learned and applied the principles of teamwork and effectiveness as a representative body. The experience paid off with 1994 proving to be a productive and successful one indeed for the Student and Executive Council. Time was not wasted with the first two weeks of school, seeing the sale and delivery of cards and roses for Valentine's Day. This activity was relatively new to the College, as was the Staff-Student Cup initiated this year, and the non interhouse Cultural Evening with the 60's & 70's theme, both events proving to be very enjoyable and entertaining. Junk Food Day was also a welcome addition to the school calendar. The annual School Ball, featuring contro versial comedian Todd Shillein, as a great event and a fun night out did not fail to deliver. 1994 also saw the late birth of the school newspaper, made by and for the students, providing yet again another means of communica tion. The suggestion box in the library was also reintroduced with the same principle in mind. Traditional All Saints' events such as Free Dress Day, socials, Exec versus Teachers matches, and the Fun Run were well-maintained. The Fun Run, along with a one thousand dollar dona tion from the Student Council, resulted in lots of money going to Rwanda.
This of course could not have been done without the students, providers of the cash, who have done themselves proud and the College; this year's theme of "service to others" was well served. As was said before, 1994 was a year of changes, and committees are where the real changes are made. The Student Executive is proud to have been a part of the process that saw the Uniform Review Committee recommend: an upgrading of the girls' summer uni form, the provision of upgraded PE shorts for both boys and girls, and the allowing of boys to wear their socks neatly down. The Student body was also effectively represented on the Can teen Committee, and the International Week Committee. It was represented at functions such as the Commonwealth of Nations Youth Rally and Multi Faith Observance ceremony, the AHISA Leadership Seminar and the Challenges for the Future breakfast. I must thank Mr london, Mrs Kirke and Mrs Knox for all they have done in helping Student Council activities, and the Student Executive and Student Council for providing great leadership. I wish Caroline Wise well for next year, and hope she benefits from a great team the way I have. Jeffry Hewitt

1994, Cowan's inaugural year, held a mixture of results. Overall it proved to be a successful year, as the small purple House, big in enthusiasm and motiva tion challenged the traditional Houses. Cowan made a respectable start to the year in the Swimming carnival, where the swimmers in their purple swim caps were nicknamed "the Ribena berries"! Everyone who remembered their bath ers or who wasn't sick put in a great effort in the pool, as did the cheering students in the stands. In rowan's first major event, we managed to finish a creditable fifth!
Mrs S Bedford and K Harker.
The Swimming carnival was just the warm-up as things only got better. The Cross Country was next and Cowan competitors performed extremely well, as we did in the Winter Games. 1994 was also the year Rugby and Touch Football was introduced. This was perhaps the highlight of the year for Cowan as we really showed our strength. The boys' Rugby team was undefeated and ploughed its way
through the opposition to claim the trophy. Thanks to Tim Dawson for organising and captaining the team. The girls' Touch Football team nar rowly defeated Forrest in a nail-biting grand final in which we claimed the trophy. Thanks to Mr Chandler for organising the event. Hopefully Cowan will blitz the field in 1995! Cowan did very well in the Senior Quiz as the applied intelligence of Ben Williams (Captain), Kent Brinklow, Elizabeth Pellicano, Robert Dixon and Emily Rainey secured a third place. The Athletics carnival was also an event in which Cowan was well repres ented. Cowan started off very strongly, but as the 'M and M's ran out, so did our lead. However, everyone put in a great effort to finish fourth. Thanks to everyone who repeatedly filled in for events, it was much appreciated. Cowan had a terrific first year and much of its was due to the help of Kent Brinklow and Linc Gibellini, the Vice Captains and Emily Rainey, Elizabeth Pellicano, Tim Dawson and Bel~amin Beaton. Mrs Bedford put in a great deal of effort this year in her organisation of events and activities for the House and deserves to be congratulated on the fine job she has done to make this first year a successful one.

In its first year as a new House, Durack was encouraged by the enthusi asm and enticing antics of Mrs TyITel!. As the Head of Durack House, Mrs Tyrrell endeavoured to instil House spirit and enthusiasm. She honourably defended Durack's symbol, the 'Boab Tree', arguing that, "it is not a dead tree"'. Inter-house Swimming started off the agenda and Durack was full of optimism. After all we had the 'best catch' of All Saints', the 'supeIfish' her self, the one and only, Rebecca Joyce. However even with all the talent dis played in the pool from our intrepid Durack members and the fantastic devotion displayed by some, it was a day marred by injuries and mystery illnesses. However House spirit erupted with a particularly eager group of Year Eight cheerers, headed by the infamous Captain David Ong. "Dong's cheers will always be remembered, particu larly the 'Ninja Rap' and the always popular, "Go! Durack! Go!" cheers. Many thanks go to this cheer squad for their efforts to raise House spirit. A special thanks to Sharron Blazejczyk and Kate Loveday for their participa tion in countless events. Finally a than kyou to the Year Twelves, especially Jeffry Hewitt and Rebecca Joyce for marshalling tirelessly throughout the entire day. After a not-so-promising start to the year, hopes of the House rested on our performance in the Cross Country. We started well with Kiera Chorley win ning the overall girls' Cross Country title and there were many other great
Mrs Tyrre/l and N Hasheminia
efforts. However, our lack of depth let us down and it is an area which needs improvement. The introduction of the Inter-house Rugby Sevens and Touch Football created opportunities for the many skil ful Rugby players like David Turk and the sensational Argentinian exchange student, Pedro Stafforini. After some great games, the Durack Touch Foot ball team fell out of final contention and Durack narrowly missed out in the final of the Rugby Sevens. Thanks go to all who participated, particularly the Captains. David Turk and Jaimie Brook. The new Term also introduced two Vice-Captains; the always enthusiastic Jaimie Brook and the enchanting Katie Priest. Their efforts and support throughout the year were much appreciated. The final House activity for the Semester was the Winter Games, in which Durack performed outstand ingly, especially in the Volleyball and Soccer. Special thanks go to the 'Vol leyball King', Warrick Rann; the 'Bas ketball Legend', Lorenz Gan and the 'Soccer Lord', Carey J ones. A new Semester brought a new Head of Durack House. With Mrs Tyr reil in Ireland, the legendary Mr Whipp took over the reins. The excited and enthusiastic approach of Mrs Tyrrell was replaced with the 'cool', yet
'intense' style of the super coach, Mr Whipp. With his dedication and his unique ability to get the best out of everyone. the Inter-house Athletics was destined to be successful. However, once again the lead-up to another major House event was marred by iniuries. Many trusted Durack ~embers participated to the best of their ability, but it was not our day. The athletes knew that it would be an almost impossible task to win, but nevertheless they tried thei r vcry best and I thank them. Another special thankyou goes to the newcomers of the Secondary School, the Year Eights, who have been most helpful and enthusiastic as a group. Their elforts towards Inter house actiVIties have been tremendous and they are a fine example for the older students. I would finally like to thank the following people in Durack for their support and efforts and who have not previously been mentioned: Ashleigh Fick, Travis Goad, Lorenz Gan, Stuart lames, Andrew Mears and of course a special thanks to Katie Pri est and Jaimie Brook. It has been an honour to be House Captain of Durack. Many thanks to Mrs Tyrrell and Mr Whipp for their help, guidance and dedication. My best wishes to next year's House Captain and to the future of Durack House. Navid Hasheminia with assistance from Katie Priest

FORREST
1994 was a year in which Forrest did not excel in the pool, nor on the track. but it is till one we can be proud of. Our only major wins came in the Cross Country which I believe, came about not through the efforts of a few cham pions but through the participation by the House as a whole. We also won the Senior Quiz, prov ing that you don't have to be an athlete to support your House. The Athletics carnival, even though we came fifth, was a great success. For various reasons the Lower School members of FOITest found themselves greatly outnumbered on the track and in the field. However, through an abundance of positive House spirit, no event was left unat tended. The 1994 Year Eight girls espe cially, deserve a pat on the back. Five girls ran event after event, with only a small amount of persuasion from m self and the Vice-Captains. The House Rugby Sevens and Touch Football, in its premier year, was a great success and was greatly enjoyed by all of the participants and spectators. Forrest came second in the Touch Football and third in the Rugby - ·although many believe that the Rugby team, captained by Brent Bar ton, could have gone all the way. How ever, due to a misunderstanding between the players. concerning the fix tures, we were forced to forfeit the semi-final. If nothing else, it was a good year for firing up House spirit to a level that I have never seen before, a factor that
Mr B HallSon and J Pills.
I'm sure will see Forrest have great suc cess in the years to come. I would especially like to thank both Vice-Captains - Kellie Burgess and Tanya Cook and others like Curtis Brand, Jadanne Heuchan. Desin!e Bell - their help was invaluable through out the year. I hope that next year's Forrest House Captain has such a great bunch of people to work with. Good luck to the House as a whole for a very suc cessful '95 and the years to follow. Jus/in Pitts

In 1994, the year of change, like the rest of the College, Murdoch began a significant metamorphosis. With the introduction of two new Houses, the Inter-house competition has begun to look more like a packet of Smarties than the traditional battle between For rest and Stirling. The large-scale redistribution of the six-house system wreaked havoc with Murdoch's population. However, the loss of many former champion boys and girls has been amply made up for by the influx of talented newcomers like the Bone brothers and others of equal skill in their preferred fields. Once again Murdoch was piloted by competent leaders. 1994 House Captain Christopher Sheehan overcame the challenge of not having any female counterpart by appointing the versatile TeniJJe Cooper to the Vice-Captain position. Later in the year another obstacle was placed in Murdoch's path when Mr Keith Maughan, House Head of Murdoch for many years, became ill. Fortunately mild-mannered Librar ian Mrs Potter threw on the cape and took over his role. It must be said how ever, that while Mrs Potter's leadership was exemplary, no one person can make up for the sheer enthusiasm Mr Maughan exudes. A reflection of this enthusiasm was seen in the way Murdoch attacked the components of the Inter-house compe tition. Students gave all events their best shot to ensure that no matter what the result, Murdoch could hold its head high. A perfect example of this was seen in the Rugby Sevens tournament
Mr K Maughan and C Sheehan.
in which the Murdoch side, composed mainly of complete novices, rallied to win one match and gave a good show in all the others. Other competitions saw Murdoch achieve runner-up position in the Athletics and Swimming Carnivals and strong showings in the Junior and Senior Quizzes. The newly introduced Touch Rugby (in conjunction with the Rugby Sevens) and Year Eight Four on Four Basketball tournaments dem onstrated if not great results, signs of promise for the future. So as 1994, the year of change, draws to a close, Murdoch can rest assured that it's reputation as a "pow erhouse" is intact. No matter what the odds, in keeping with the spirit of Mr Maughan and all the "Mighty Pinkies" before us, Murdoch's 1994leavers would like to express the hope that Murdoch will continue its winning ways. And remember, as the Captain and Tenille always say, "If it's not red, it's dead!" Andrew Poon with assistance from Christopher Sheehan

For the '94 O'Connorites it was a year of varied success. Although never taking the grand prize, we triumphed in the minor placings: Third in the Inter house Swimming Carnival and Third in the Inter-house Athletics Carnival (pipped by one point by Murdoch), at:hievements well earned by every member of the group. The Athletics carnival produced a number of individuai champions and runners-up. Also deserving of mention are all of those who participated in the tug of war, in which O'Connor blitzed the field, winning every category with the greatest of case. With the inclUSIOn of Cowan and Durack, '94 was an experimental year for all. Having less people to fill more events proved difficult, but with the support of Luke Tassell, Sarah Peters (Vice-Captains), Nina Snowden, Rebecca Coombs and Jessica Adder Icy, the task was made a lot easier.
Mr A Radich and K Bevilaqua.
Special mention must also go to my Year Eleven helpers, Paul Kaczmarc zyk and Andrew Fowler, who were running from long jump to javelin and shot put to two hundred metres, look ing for people to fill events. Well done guys! In the academic field we were again pipped at the post in the Senior House quiz. We made it all the way to the finals only to be beaten by one ques tion. It was a great effort. The Touch and Rugby Inter-house competition was inaugurated this year. Both teams did the yellow shirt proud. The Touch team reached the semi finals and the Rugby team gave some teams a real scare by nearly beating
them, but alas, their aspirations fell short of reaching the finals. The Year Eight Basketball competi tion (also in Its first year) has proved to be a success for O'Connor, having won every game so far. Many House members were always keen to support and compete in House activities or carnivals, or help organise and lead certain events. A high level of House spirit has been demonstrated by O'Connor with a pleasing and com mendable effort from all O'Connorites in 1994. The level of participation, enthusiasm and spirit allowed activities to be very competitive as well as very enjoyable. Well done O'Connor and thanks to Mr Radich and O'Connor tutors for their support. 1995 should prove to be an even more successful year. Keep up the high level of enthusiasm and partic ipation and O'Connor House should be a force to be reckoned with. Good luck to next year's House Captain. Kale Bevilaqua

The year started with an unfamiliar feel about it, with two Houses being added to the competition. This feeling con tinued with Stirling taking the Inter house Swimming carnival for only the second time. This saw the end of Term One and the emergence of a new (Act ing) House Head, as Ms Cleghorn left for long-service leave and Ms Branden burg took over. This gave Stirling an even more unfamiliar look. That trend continued with Stirling taking out the Inter-house Cross Country competi tion, for the first time, and also the Winter Games for the first time, (that I can recall). These wins were a tremendous effort the whole House. As an example, no event in the Inter-house Swimming car nival was without a Stirling competi tor. There was commitment by eve ryone, nut just in Swimming but in Cross Country and Winter Games. This is where the winning run finished, however, it was not the end of the com mitment and the will to participate. This continued in the following Inter-
Ms G Cleghorn and N lones.
house events: Rugby, Touch Football and the Senior Quiz. All of the partici pants are to be congratulated on their fine efforts and high standard of competition. All combined, we had a very successful first half of the year, probably the most successful Stirling has ever had and I applaud all students and staff for this fine effort. Not prepared to rest on our laurels, we came out in the second half of the year and put in a mighty showing in the Inter-house Athletics. This has capped off a great year. With the great effort made by so many this year, I feel it would be unfair to single out any individuals when it has clearly been the majority who have achieved this success. However, I would like to take this opportunity to thank my Vice-Captains for their
efforts this year. I will finish by wishing next year's Sti rling House Captain the best of luck and I hope he or she receives the same support and great outcomes that I have been lucky to have this year. It has been a most rewarding and worthwhile expenence. Nathan lanes

ROWING "Half, half, three-quarter, full-power of ten!" This is what our two crews of the All Saints' rowing teams were following during the past three months of school girls' regattas. The two crews of All Saints' are a Year Eleven crew, who row as a "freshman four" and a Year Nine crew. The Year Eleven crew consists of Ashleigh Fick, Jessica Cook, Melita Powys and Karen Melior. We have been rowing for over a year and a half. Jacqui Flottman in Year Six put in a lot of time as the cox for practice ses sions and races. After numerous coaches and even ending up coaching ourselves, we decided to get our act together and we found our number one coach, Kim Greville, who actually likes our company. In training four days a week, with an incredible dedication to rowing, Kim gave us many painstaking training sessions. This all paid off with a third placing at the "Head of the River". The Year Nine team rows as an "eight" and its members include Alei sha Flottman, Susan McGregor, Michelle Rigo, Simone Spencer, Kate Macauley, Christine Tang, Taryn Ban nister, Stephanie Tribbick and Jessica Daniel. These girls have been rowing for six months, but with their commit ment to rowing, they managed to meet the ultimate challenge and defeat Pen rhos, to take out first place. On behalf of all the rowers we would like to thank Mrs Bedford and Mrs Pascoe for their help this season.

SOCCER I am proud to report that this year the All Saints' team didn't lose all of their matches. However that doesn't mean we were triumphant many times either. Our sole victory came against the pathetic team of John Wollaston College. The scoreline: ASC 9 JWC 3. The cheer squad from JWC (S) went home disappointed. Reflecting on a season gone by, most of the team can at least claim they improved some part of their game. Ross Mandin performed well as unwit ting goalkeeper. Mark Blandford had the right attitude but lacked the finish ing accuracy. Robert Paul had the skill but lacked the stamina. These are juS! some of the enthusiastic Year Nines in our team. Mr Schirinzi once again gave up his time to try and build us into a fighting machine. Well. we all have our dreams don't we? Maybe next year. Gerry. He instituted an added facet to training, the indoor soccer every Tuesday lunch time. If it didn't improve team work, it certainly boosted the team's morale to have the small but vocal crowd cheer ing and jeering them on. On behalf of the team I would like to thank him for his time and effort. And as he taught us: "Winnin' isn't ever thin', but losin' is nuffin '!!"

The tears began at the airport on the 2nd July. After many experiences, they haven't stopped.
From the time we arrived to our departure we spoke, heard, slept and even ate French. The food there was just deluxe!
With a month ahead of us, meeting our new families was something we will never forget.

Transport over there is also
of a different sort. It ranges
from authorised and
unauthorised mopeds to cars
that travel at 140km/h and faster. The people of La Reunion call
themselves Maniac Drivers.

CAMPS
YEAR 8 CAMP A week of excitement, challenges and fun lay ahead of us as we arrived at Forest Edge. We were divided into eight groups and each group did differ足 ent activities each day. Our group started out on the "incentive course". We had to climb a three metre high wall with only a few ropes, construct and use a mini flying fox and swing across a creek on a tarzan rope. While Melissa Jakovich and Michelle Fraser were the only ones to fall into the water, everyone needed a wash after a great mud fight. While at Forest Edge everyone had their meals cooked for them, except ihose on the over-night campout who cooked their own over an open fire. Some succeeded, but most failed and though our cold apple pie was deli足 cious, most of it ended up on our faces rather than in our mouths! After dinner Uncle Willie entertained us with a talk about the stars and a story about UFOs before we went to bed in our tents. The next day we walked to the Waroona Dam where we canoed and made a raft which we had to sail across the dam - easier said than done, but nobody minded getting wet. Back at Forest Edge we had a drama session and then visited a dairy where
we tasted fresh milk and had a turn at milking a cow. That night, we had a concert which was quite entertaining! On Wednesday we began the "confi足 dence course" where you start by swinging from tyre to tyre and continue along a course of ropes and obstacles with the aim of keeping your feet off the ground. Next we were harnessed up for the mini flying fox where you had to climb up five logs, each a metre apart and then up a thin metal ladder which spun around as you climbed it. Our reward was the ride down again on a flying fox. The rest of the day was filled with screen printing, horse riding and fun activities like bouncing balloons on our noses. Everyone woke up bright and early for what was to be our last full day at Forest Edge. We learnt compass skills and orienteering in the morning, finish足 ing up with a major water fight to cool us all down. In the afternoon we went to the pamper pole and flying fox, two of the highlights of camp. The pamper pole is about eight metres high with a tmy platform on top. After a frightening climb you stood on the top and jumped to a trapeze bar. (Don't worry, we were all harnessed up safely!) The flying fox was about 350 metres long and though pulling it up the valley wasn't much fun, the ride was great. We had a cool time at our disco on the last night, but it was hard to get up the next day! Our last activities were learning to
use air rifles and painting boomerangs, but soon it was time to leave. After lunch we all boarded the buses and headed for home to relax after our great week at Forest Edge.

YEAR 9 CAMP On Monday I1 April all the Year 9s woke early and made their way to school with packed bags. The destina tion Nanga Bush Camp. We were set to leave at 6.45 am, but we did not count on one student sleeping in. After 90 minutes travel deprived of junk food and magazines, we arrived. The dorms were very small but the fire poles which connected the two Ooors made up for this. We unpacked and headed out for the day. Canoeing was first. After a marathon hike we reached the big yellow canoes. They were heavy and full of holes. As the river had little water m It we carried the canoes a lot. Many students capsized and food and clothing found new homes in the river. We came back to the camp site tlred and wet. The next day was our long hike, eighteen kilometres. Tents, smelly toilets and food awaited us at the end of the day. The night was cold but there was no ram to dampen our spirits. Abseiling was what everyone was looking forward to ~ the highlight of the camp. Harnesses were pulled on and fastened and the climb to the top of the tower began. The first descents were slow and scarey but we were soon bounding and running down the tower. The confidence course was filled with trust activities and a Pamper Pole.
Here we jumped from a 2 metre high log to a trapeze bar a long way out. Other activities were rock climbing, rafting and archery. Many of us improved a lot with archery and climb ing, however the best part about the rafting was the water fights. One night, unfortunately, many of us became sick. The teachers' dorm became the hospital and the really sick people were sent home. The activities were modified but those of us who were well or who had recovered still had a good time. Many thanks have to go to the teachers who looked after us when we were sick, the Year 12s, the cooks and group leaders. Special thanks also to the kids who cleaned up and washed up superbly.

ADVENTURE OUT CAMP
At 12:30pm on Sunday April 10, fifty-three students left for Margaret River. HANG ON - that's a stupid start. Here's the real version, don't hold us back! We left school and after four hours of listening to Metallica full blast, the buses pulled into the camp site. Two hours later the tents were up and dinner was cooking. Later, we discussed the activities of the week which were: Introduction abseiling, abseiling at Willyabrup (bet ter known as "that Willy place" to those less educated amongst us), abseil ing down solution pipes, caving, the over-night hike, canoeing and abseiling at Brides Caves. THE MEMORIES: It was a pretty rough camp with the fear of the fruit bats and the fact that leeches were draining our blood! A lack of water was a bit of a prob lem, and speaking of water, poor "Caz" nearly drowned in a rip but thanks to "Andy", she survived. Everyone got a bit of a scare when "Shane the Guru" went abseiling with out his carabiner done up, but we think he's okay. We couldn't have lifted, pushed or pulled a thing without our three muscle men - David, Nick and Glen! Many nights were spent with lavender scents and magic fingers, but not for "Goldy" when he got clothes lined! Jacko and Kate's birthdays wer en't forgotten just as Jason won't be, in the hearts of all the girls. Mmmmm Jason - he needs no explanation. We think the hairdressing award should go to Zoe Brand for the best instant dread lock in ten seconds. For the night time entertainment courtesy of David, Shane and all the
other little jiffy fire starter bugs, baked bean bombs were provided. Friday night we got rained out but it didn't stop anyone from running amuck and Metallica roared on. No camp is a camp without the camp words: Jimmy Japarra, cham pion, wheezie, yabo, naughty etc, or

BIKE HIKE CAMP
The frigid dawn of Monday II April saw twenty-three boys, totally innocent oftheirtortuousfateuponarrivingin Nan nup, board an oversized Tarago van which some blind inspector classed as a bus. Now these boys were no ordinary bunch - they were the select few who were to go through the "mildly pleasant" experience of riding a total of 150 kilometres over five days, traversing a landscape as flat as a scalpel is blunt. After a long journey we arrived at the Nannup Caravan Park, our base of operations for the ensuing five days, and were introduced to the Stirling Cycle Tours staff members. The for malities and briefing aside, we were all given a bike for the five days and promptly set about using them for the first time on a twenty-kilometre round trip to Balingup Pool. The week's riding saw the hardest rides take place on Tuesday and Thurs day with Mr Whipp ("Whippy") lead ing the way through valleys and over hills, over hills, over even more hills. with both rides culminating in long downhill sections where some of the fastest speeds of the week were attained. The fastest speed however, was obtained on Wednesday, when the crew of twenty-three was divided into three groups to travel the eleven kilometres on bitumen back to Nan nup. The lead group sped down
towards the town at speeds reaching sixty-three kilometres per hour. Thurs day heralded "the big climb", a hill which just seemed to ascend forever, but after much sweat, toil, and many curses being given air, we made it to the top. Back at camp the week was spent playing Trivial Pursuit, with the "Vege" team triumphant on all occasions. Not until Thursday night did the action really hot up though, when Matthew Picker ing, or "Picko", as he was known, discovered the incendiary properties of tinned chicken curry upon ignition. The rumour that had spread like body odour through the campsite on Thursday afternoon was confirmed and made public by Mr Whipp that even ing. The situation was this - a Victo rian contingent had arrived at the cara van park while we bike hikers had been slogging it out on the "big hill". This wouldn't have moved many of us hik ers, but the one motivating fact that launched twenty-three boys into the showenng block as one wave of dirt. sweat, body odour was this - there were girls and they would be Visiting our campfire that night! The camp passed smoothly, taking all the above anomalies in its stride while being enjoyable, and for this many thanks go to the Stirling Cycle Tours staff, Mrs Saggers and Derek, and to Mr Whipp and Mr Hanson.

MOORE RIVER AQUATICS CAMP
On Monday 11 April, twenty-one Year Ten and Year Eleven students left for Moore River on the Aquatics Camp. On arrival, we met our instruc tors, set up camp and prepared for the activities ahead of us. We were separ ated into two groups; Group One tac kling the overnight hike and Group Two, the overnight canoes. Group One was lucky enough to camp near the beach after covering only a few kilome tres in three to four hours. Group Two was in a prime position after a long canoe. We were camped on the river's edge and had views of cows making chocolate milk. Our camp site con sisted of hootchies, mosquitoes, a camp fire and lots of people cooking with their trangias. The next day both the canoe group and the trekkers made their way back to the base camp site, arriving by lunch time. Activities on day two were learning how to wind surf and later in the day. sand boarding down some massive forty to fifty metre slopes. We spent the second night at the camp site and separated into our groups. The Group One instructor, Andy, learnt a valuable lesson in "thea tre sports" and "using a pretend cigarette". Group One spent Wednes day morning snorkelling and wind surf ing before setting off for the canoe. Many happy campers returned with numerous reminders of the GuiJderton
sea inhabitants. Being attacked by stin gers was the price to pay for snorkel ling over the reef. After Group Two had wind surfed, they demonstrated how to snorkel rather poorly and they showed a distinct dislike of the water and stingers. That night, Group One went on the overnight canoe with the instructors demonstrating the art of dream inter pretation. Joshua Willis found this to be a very moving experience. On their overnight hike, Group Two were woken by James Gilroy, high upon a hill crying, "Good morning world!". On return to camp, Group One
wind surfed and tried to surf, while Group Two sand boarded. The fourth and final night both students and staff performed in a concert in commemora tion of the week. The teachers tried to interpret the relationships between the students on camp, but failed. A big thanks to Mr CoUins, Miss Richens. Andy, Mich and Steph from Adventure Out. All that is left to say is "Dorb", and when in doubt, "Look on the map!". Anna Reany and Philippa Goodman

KALBARRI ABSEIL/ CANOE! HIKING CAMP
Sunday 8.00am had arrived. The time we had spent planning and pan icking for over the past ten weeks. What was it going to be like to be taken from our homes and three "mum ':ooked" meals a day, to fend for and teed ourselves in the Murchison Gorge, Kalbarri? Each of us was armed with a fourteen kilogram backpack and two empty soft drink containers, filled or not filled with what was discovered later to be precIous "Penh water"l We said goodbye and began the eight-hour drive to the gorge. The drive up was exceedingly boring and long. During this time we listened to what was regarded as the best of Andrew Forster's and Kevin Webster's music! This was debatable. We finally turned off the main road, on to a gravel track for the last part of our journey, to the repeated chant by the boys of. "Are we there yet"". As the bus halted we tumbled off and headed down into the gorges for a much needed swim. We ventured off for the first of many descents of the gorges. After a ninety degree downward climb, many of us stood in awe of the gorge's beauty, while others wasted no time jumping into the river. After a short, yet very refreshing swim, we made our way up the gorges. We decided that we would seriously die with all this climbing and backpacking ahead of us. Darkness approached at an early hour (6.30 pm). We were left with the light of the stars, methylated spirit stoves and torches. The teachers thought we'd be asleep early, but ha! After we'd been through the ritual of annoying each other and chasing each other around, it was 10.30 pm and still no-one was asleep.
We had our own personal alarm clocks in Kalbarri. They woke us around 6.00am and stayed with us all day until the sun went down. These alarm clocks were not appreciated by any member of the group. They were flies. We are not talking a few flies, but literally thousands of them that stuck to you religiously all day. After waking and breakfasting, it was time to begin the dreaded two-day hike. At least this was the plan accord ing to the teachers, the students had other ideas. Most hikers sat on the bus, our new found refuge, stating we would rather stay In the bus than die In the gorges. But that wasn't to he. Over the next two days whilst hiking through the gorges and completing some challenging activities, we learnt a lot about each member in the group. Andrew Forster's diligent and regular application of lip balm, several hundred times a day. David Maltas' use of obscure words throughout the five days, hence his title, "Dictionary Man". Not to mention our tour leader. "Shane the Pain". Our hiking days passed and those with "Perth water" were down to their last mouthful. This meant we would have to use gorge water, plus one chlorine tablet, which very effectively created a taste like swimming pool water! Some more enterprismg group members sold the remains of their "Perth water" for very inflated prices. The hike had been challenging and enjoyable, minus the flies of course! Canoeing and abseiling were yet to come.
We split into year groups for the next two days. The abseiling was great. Everyone completed a forwards and backwards abseil down the faces of twenty-five and thirty-five metre cliffs. The second day we canoed through the gorges, at times carrying our canoes due to lack of water. As the last night approached people were desperate for food, besides their own camp cooking, clean hair, show ers, soft beds, relaxation for our feet and Perth water! "Wakeathons" and revenges on Shane were planned, how ever it was all canned after the threat of cancelling the "treats" stop on the jour ney home! As we headed out of Murchison Gorge, I think we were all left wIth a sense of achievement and accomplish ment. At our stop for refreshments stop you have never seen civilised peo ple turn so savage at the sight of Coke and chips! Tamsin Kennerson

10/11 JOONDALUP
There was no hesitation on arriving at Springfield Riding School. It was straight onto a horse for our first les son. Those of us who were most anx ious had a lesson to get to know the basics while the top riders had a refresher ride. Mornings were usually taken up with a lesson and although those two hours went quickly, lunch was greatly welcomed. Kym Jones "wanted" to be the first fatality. She didn't mind which bone she broke, just as long as she got out of the hike to our campsite. Unfortunately she didn't get out of it but Emma Gib son did. Emma dismounted (feJl) from her moving horse and luckily for her, got to catch the truck to the campsite. Those four and a half hours were the longest four and a half hours of most of our lives. Saddle sore and basically just beat, we feJl off our horses for a well-deserved drink. For some reason, though, AnnabeJle Du Guesclin waited until we had finished the ride to have her asthma attack and need hospital attention. The dirtiest people were the ones who were always at the back of the pack but the guaranteed dirtiest face went to the person who rode Bobby. The campout was full of paddy melon fights and trying to find suitable trees. Mr Balding also discovered a new way to get out of his tent in the morning. Mistaking the dirt for his breakfast he took a big bite tripping on the edge of his tent. On the way back to Joondalup, Yuki Witono was voted the person we didn't want to let back on a horse. Giving his horse a swift kick he galloped off and everyone followed without warning. Valentina Setiawan and Narelle McAu liffe both fell off, Valentina stopping as she hit a tree. Right then everyone wanted to give Yuki a swift kick. Mr Balding got into yet another dilemma when he let go of his horse and he had to go and chase it for a while to get it back. On the way to our picnic place Adrian Lee's horse went lame and Adrian toppled, wondering what he'd done. On the way back Kelly Brown literally slid straight off her horse.
HORSE RIDING CAMP
From behind you saw her and her sad dle slide to the right and if she had held on it would have been the most inter esting way to ride a horse you had ever seen.

SCUBA DIVING CAMP
On Sunday 10 April, at 7:00am a group of twenty-seven students sleepily piled on the bus leaving All Saints' CoJlege for Malibu Diving at Rock ingham. On the way there, while some of us were trying to catch up on some sleep, Reid Barron whacked in a Metallica tape and pumped up the volume. 1 have nothing against Metal lica, I listen to it myself. But] don't enjoy them at 7 o'clock in the morning. We arrived at Malibu Divmg, not bothering to unpack, but getting straight into the diving course. We were divided into two groups. One group was in the water learning the practical side of SCUBA diving, while the other group was in the classroom learning the theory. My group was in the water first. Luckily enough our first lesson was in an indoor heated pool. After the instructors finally managed to get the SCUBA gear on us we didn't have much time left to spend in the water. After giving our instructor Andrew Gill a hard enough time in the water we swapped over with the other group to the classroom where we once again gave him a hard time. You may think spending time in a classroom on camp would make the camp one to avoid but not in this case. Your basic day in SCUBA theory involved watching videos, hassling the instructor and lift ing your pen about twice to sign your name. The experience in the water more than makes up for the time you spend in the class. Being weightless underwater is a feeling that can only be
experienced but can't be described. On camp we went on a total of three pool dives and four ocean dives. We participated in five theory lessons in which Mr Radich was the worst stu dent of all. On top of that we earned our Open Water SCUBA Diving Cer tificate (from SCUBA Schools Interna tional) and this certificate is recognized internationally. But the main thing about the camp was that we all enjoyed it and 1strongly advise anyone who can do the camp to go for it next year. Our thanks go to Mrs Bedford and Mr Radich who had to put up with twenty-seven teenagers for six whole days! 1 think they are stiJl recovering from the shock! Liam Bennett

YEAR 10/11 SHANNON RIVER CAMP The co-leader wrote this poem after the camp to encapsulate the feelings of the twenty-three Shannon Adventurers: Everyone arrived, with the bus trip, the walk and getting lost all adding to the expectations of their adventure. An adventure with others, with the ele ments, and with ourselves. Settling down to the pace of the camp, our young riders chose their tcams. The daily grind, dishes, food and fire made life out there still bear some reality to home. Our steeds were given out al long lasl. We were going to ride oul nol slow orfasl. The great lake to the west was the place As we sel off to it wilh no haste. The quiet of the woodland, the sun piercing through leaves, the sleepy home of roo, parrot or wren made me feel on horseback as if we were natu rally made to blend in. Climbing hills we overlooked the ocean, this vast land was ours to ride, to explore by the hand. The relief of our ride had come, the great lake we had won, as we bathed our dirt black bodies with the sight of a blood-red setting sun. Our fire burned brightly. The glow showed our smiling ponderIng faces. What's it been like? What will come? But where were we? How were we to get home? The first party left with leff, the courage they had was grand, for we all knew in our selves what we could and couldn't do. Morning pierced through the night to open the day for the surf, where we were to ride in groups across the pep
permint, over the dune. "Head west l " he said. That was our due feeling, our mounts powering through the sand. The great ocean loomed upon us, the waves the only sound. We fled all our fears as we let our hair down, to canter across a beach, to feel the wind, the sand, the water hit our legs, faces and hands. The spirit amongst us was building, the flip charts made their stand, as we grasped their meaning and used them to help us find our way. Having an exhausted but satisfying feeling in my bones, I was ready for the next bite, the one-day trip to the lcypoles. Up at the crack of dawn, we hit the plains, the open covered heath, to make our way for Broke Inlet. Our steeds could feel the task ahead of them. Some learnt about the land and how to find their way, while others learnt about themselves and the extraordinary things they withheld. With their horses working up a lather we cantered through the heath, the laughter, the glory and the success was felt all the way to the feed shed. T'was lcypole territory, with Bruno as our way. Up the hills of Broke Inlet we walked and trusted all our faith. Then there they were, like we all had pictured, or maybe not. They were a symbol of our time. The three Icypoles made us all think and ponder about our achievements, our team, our life, how we can all lend a hand. As wc gathered around leff to hear his say we looked out upon a cliff to the sun of the setting day, with rain clouds pass ing we hugged and drank juice. The
spirit of the Icypoles will never die, ever. Flying down hills, holding hands through thickets, stopping on sand dunes to talk or feel the power and beauty of another person. Then the swim where waters went green, and hearth of heart cooked our snags. We saddled our horses in the dark shad owy space all knowing the journey ahead. We rode through the thicket, then climbed the steep hills, where we saw the silhouettes of the people in front against the stormy grey sky. T'was Terri who openly let out her fear, a fear that everyone felt. I had to say that I was scared too...after which I could feel the ice melt. Battling through the icy wind across the rainswept plains, the chill. thoughts of fear, concentrating on keeping up with the person in front. Our silence was broken by the magic green light which gave all hope and spirit, and want to continue on. Our final goodbyes were not the last. We all had an achievement to say, for some cried, some laughed, but it was all revolving around how our team made these emotions possible. The safety was magic; even I cried. The love that was expressed will last forever in each of our hearts to give us all a special bonding. A championship team is what it was. I remember all the faces which sat in that circle, each face showing the spirit inside, of how it learnt something new and different. We all made this camp what is was. The beauty and energy came into us all. Matthew Butler

YEAR 10/11 SOUTHERN JARRAH FOREST CAMP YOU ARE WRONG! It's not that bad! Whatever you have been told is only to deter you from attending. The 19 campers who attended the Southern Jarrah Forest Camp arrived with this negative image, but left viewing the camp in a whole new light. Some of the many activities that we participated in were: Night Navigation (running around in the dark with no torch, tripping over rocky outcrops and expanding our vocabulary'). Caving (lying in the dark listening to Peter Lane make chicken noises). Bush walking (where we witnessed Matthew Nunis. alias "Roly", gash his leg open whilst showing off on wet granite rocks). Canoeing (involving certain water bot tles, water fights and mass capsiz ing). And regular visits to the local deli (involving choc wedges and Coke).
Throughout the week we observed the flourishing romance between Caro line Burbidge and Chris Taylor, con sisting of marriage, divorce and 'in depth' counselling by David Bright (alias "Poly"). Our fellow campers also managed to extend our vocabulary, not just while stumbling around in the dark but also in serious discussion around the camp fire. Words such as: epiphany, cul-de sac, bumpkin, and 'the' camp adjective
"TARDO"! Not to mention the well used and rather stupid description of flies as 'self-contained units' (Thank you Rebecca Edwards). Unfortu nately for the saner members of our camp, some of us became rather obsessed with anything remotely "tardo" with Susan Atkinson and Susie Tweddle developing rather deranged accents and driving everyone com pletely up the wall. Eventually the sad day came for us to depart, so to create a memorable occasion the boys decided to gang up on us girls and collapse our tents. Unfortunately some of the tents were still occupied! AND NOW FOR SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT ... THE SERIOUS BIT! The general consensus was one of great respect and admiration for our
camp leaders - Dave being a legend, Cal being experienced and knowledgea ble, both being very helpful and amica ble. Annie Gottschalk from Adminis tration and accompanying Mr Colin Morgan, George Jenner - we thank them for their help and assistance, and apologise for labelling Annie a bump kin, but we admit that Mr Jenner's "tardo" laugh is not our responsibility. We would also like to commend the staff on their relaxed approach, their ability to treat the students as adults and to allow us freedom of choice. Lastly, we would like to thank our fel low campers for their excellent co operation and their respect for each other. NB: We are still curious as to the whe reabouts of Pete's water bottle!?

Then with charts we plotted our course for the Trek. Sunday we arrived with our belongings to get everything orga nised to pack on the boat next morn ing. We then learnt radio procedure. After lunch we went for a sail in the river and capsized one of the boats to see if it would float. It didn't, so we fit ted extra buoyancy. Andrew Fowler.

Evan Jones, fishing, puUed in a pike. At the island we saw eight sea lions beached on the sand. As we motored along to Herring Bay five dolphins cruised under our bow and stern. Evan caught a herring. On landing at Garden Island, we put garlic seasoning and lemon pepper on the fish. We were weU prepared. It was a dark and starry night as we caught snatches of sleep on the boat. Gregory Brown. Evan lones. Omesh Motiwalla

There is a barbecue area on the island where our crew had sausages and beans for breakfast. Garden Island is a wonderful place. We left at about 1O.00am and headed for Point Peron camp site. It look a long time because of the light winds. During the motoring I felt really sick. On arrival I was relieved to be on dry land and have a warm, relaxing shower. Heng Tan. Malthew Neal. Kaung Nyunt Wednesday: Boat caU sign Punisher. We awoke wet and tired. The girls were exhausted from staying awake all night guarding the boats. We planned our course and set off in about one knot of wind and slowly drifted over the swell. Radio call from Joker, "This is Joker. I'm feeling sick and I'm not joking". We foUowed Platypus through the reef on engines and lunched at Penguin Island. Emma Harris, Susan Ghent, Kyle owak Thursday: Boat caU sign Starvation. After much procrastination it was decided to sail to Herring Bay for the final night. On arrival there, with very little wind, we sailed into Herring Bay with some huge sweUs building behind us. We had dinner and spent our last night on the boats. Luckily we missed the approach
ing storm and only had a couple of showers. Tanya Cook. Sharmini Subramaniam, Kathryn Ralph Friday: Boat call sign Doors.

YEAR 12 RETREAT I On Saturday, having barely reco vered from the first term of school, we made our way down to Baldivis to begin three days of Retreat. Chris topher Young arrived late, due to an emergency pit stop to pick up various bits of his car, and then Retreat began. Mr Price democratically decided our rules for Retreat and we all sat in a large circle and performed ice-breaking activities, which involved running around hitting each other. We made 'warm fuzzy' bags with crayons that night, and participated in an exciting, fun-filled bush dance. The night was filled with loud noises which came from the roof of the boys' dorm. As Cameron Fletcher put it, "Either it was a big rat, or a small ele phant. Or it could have been Nigel." Scott Steele had an accident with the fire extinguisher, Robin Chandra supp lied all his own food, Shayne Brough brought the stereo (while the car park acted as the dance floor) and Amanda Milner wrote the best warm fuzzies "You are a ... " After several group trust exerCises, we analysed our personalities and found ourselves. We climbed over electric fences and clambered over our comrades in an effort to search for the true paths to our inner souls. We had a formal candlelit dinner where everyone dressed up, and Chantelle Somas and Michelle Adams ended up looking exactly the same. After an inspirational talk there was a session of meditation. Despite the distant noise of someone's walk man, and constant snoring, it was a very relaxing experience. That is, until a candle caught alight and Damian Smith's futile efforts to blow out a ball of fire resulted in hysterical laughter. Overall, Retreat was a whole lot of fun. Giving up Saturday night was almost worth it, as we all got to know each other just that much better. The teachers were great and we especially thank Father Terry and Mr Price for everything they did for us. Andrew Shugg and Emily Rainey

12 RETREAT TT
There was a quick, last minute pack ing of all those unnecessary items peo ple always take with them to camps (well, who can really think properly at six-thirty in the morning?) and then it was time to drive to Baldivis for the best Retreat this year - Retreat Two. Tuesday 14 April 1994, 9:00am: Retreat begins now. Retreat was, to say the least, an unforgettable experience for nearly all. When everyone finally made it, we were taken to the chapel/ hall/ bush dance floor/ mess room to play warm-up games and become relaxed. Mrs Kirke surprised everyone as did Liz Marsh, with her speed in playing fruit salad and everyone else quickly realised that it was not going to be a quiet camp. The first day was spent climbing over electric fences, human ladders and carpet stepping stones while that night everyone was at "Home Among the Gum Trees" with the bush dance. (Just in case no-one believes everyone was dancing, it's all on video, and will be used in future years for blackmail.) We were also introduced to our 'warm fuzzy' bags that night and the letters began. A group of girls, not mentioning any names (Natalie Bowden, Katie Priest, Danyelle Chittenden and Kelly Tate) kept the whole camp entertained with
their natural talent in singing "The Sign". (This is a song, although some times didn't sound like one, because the tape was rewound so much.) However, someone needed to tell them that you can get sick of a song after it has been played for the hundredth time in a row, being re-wound after the first verse to learn the words. There was no shortage of food on the camp, especially for a certain room in the girls' camp, which supplied the whole camp with an endless supply of fruit pastilles and even the can tower in the "Sign" girls' room was looking rather wobbly after the first day. The second day was again filled with more group activities, whacking people with pieces of rubber while running in a circle, writing 'warm fuzzies', eating, relaxing, taking photos, eating, video ing and listening to music. There was a sort of semi-formal dinner that night which made the girls so hyperactive that they had to go back to their rooms and rest??? on the tables - to the music. We had a really interesting speaker that night and then there was meditation. Meditation. Well, we're not too sure what that was because nearly everyone fell asleep, but we were told (Continued next page)

YEAR 12 RETREAT II this was a result of being so relaxed (or just dead tired). However, after waking up when the session was over, we were more hyperactive than ever and could not sleep. When everyone finally woke the next morning, (we really were exhausted), we split up yet again into more groups. The guys decided to play - we think it was Red Faces or Star Search, instead of cleaning up, much to the girls' dis gust. (This is also on video, along with everything else that happened on the camp, the things people saw being filmed. and the things they didn't see.) Unfortunately, it was all too soon nearing 3:30pm and so we said good bye to our rooms, Postman Pat and friends and ran for our 'warm fuzzy' bags. There was time for one last group photo, and then we were left with the memories that I'm sure everyone will have forever. Thanks have to go to all the teachers who were on our Retreat for being there and treating us as equals. It was a great experience and one we'll never forget. Joanna Kent
Year 12 Retreat fI.
YEA R 12 RETREAT III On Friday 15 April, forty Year Twelves (who were predominantly male) made their way down to the youth camp at Baldivis (some getting lost on the way) to form the third Retreat of 1994. On our first evening, we were enter tained by the Southern Cross Bush Band with whom we danced the night away. Almost everyone joined in, how ever, due to the abundance of males, they were often forced to dance with one another, making it a somewhat memorable night. It was then 'lights out'. However, some of us didn't realise the actual meaning of the world 'sleep'. Our time was spent over the follow ing days participating in trust exercises and games, where we learnt more about one another and which were also all enjoyable, forming our own 'warm fuzzy' bags and going out into the bush to 'find ourselves'. On the night of our cocktail party, instead of cordial, we were lucky enough to be served Coke and other soft drinks, which were so generously donated by certain guys on Retreat (those of whom had wrinkly hands from dish washing for the next day or so). This was followed by the formal dinner and then the meditation session from which some of us benefited as we lay in the hall, snuggled up in our sleeping bags. During thiS time in which we were meant to be meditating,
one could hear the faint sounds of music from someone's walkman or the stronger sounds of people snoring as they slept. In our free time on Retreat, some people wrote 'warm fuzzies'. while oth ers either broke windows with foot balls, damaged plastic chairs, played poker using popcorn or Fantales, lis tened to music, talked or lazed about in their rooms. Generally, all of us had a good time over the entire three days. Before it was time to leave, we all read our 'warm fuzzies' and we received our 'little hugs'. All in all, we had a memorable time, both forming and renewing friendships, and generally having fun. We'd like to thank Father Terry and Mr Price, as well as all the teachers for making Retreat Three such a successful and memorable one. Elizabeth Pellicano

LOTE & EXCHANGE STUDENTS
ROTARY EXCHANGE STUDENT Hello, I'm Pedro Stafforini a Rotary Exchange Student from Argentina and I have been at All Saints' College from February to December 1994. Well I can't really say until December because I'm writing this article in August, but let's suppose that I have finished my year as an exchange student. I became involved in Rotary through my uncle, who is a Rotarian, and my brother who came to Australia in 1992. He spent a year in Pinjarra W.A. and had an excellent year and it helped him a lot. I heard that when you finish a year as an exchange student and you go back to your country, you are like a 25 year old in maturity. You mature a lot because you have to do many things by yourself. Some things that your parents did for you are now left to you and you have to make decisions for yourself. You really learn how to spend money wisely and to love your country. It's incredible how much you miss some of the customs at home, but after a few months you get used to the customs of your host country. A year as an exchange student is something that you will never forget. You learn so many things and visit so many places that you probably never will see again. And something that probably is the hardest to leave, is all the nice people that you meet. I don't know many exchange students that
don't cry when the year is over and they have to go back to their countries. And this is something that you can't believe in your first weeks as an exchangee because the first weeks are the hardest. This is because you miss your family and everything back home. However when you make friends and you start to speak and understand the language, that is when you start having one of the best years of your life. Of course it may not always happen that you have a positive year, but I'm sure that 90% of the exchange students have a wonderful year. This is my seventh month that I have
been in Australia. I have had an excel lent time. I have had four host families and I'm going to have another one, and this is not very common because it's usual to have three or four families in the year. I have been lucky and tra velled a lot. I have been to Brisbane to play rugby union and in a trip that lasted twenty-seven days, I went to the north of Western Australia with other exchange students and I had an excel lent time. I have also been to the South west. Well, I hope that you liked this arti cle and if you ever think of going on an exchange programme, do it because you will have an unforgettable year. And I also invite you to visit my coun try, Argentina, and get to know the people and the wonderful places that we have. Pedro Stafforini

FRENCH EXCHANGE While most of you were spending April at the beach getting sunburnt, I was in France hoping that I wouldn't get frostbite. The land of food, wine, shopping and men. I took part in an immersion program which involved staying with a Parisian family for four weeks. Two or three days before [ left I found out exactly where I was going to stay and who with. The 'Segard" family lived in a suburb to the North of Paris called Enghein les bains. "Ies bains" ' means baths, and the suburb was so named because there was a lake in the centre of it. On the first of April I boarded a Bangkok-bound plane with about twenty other nervous-looking students who were mostly from Hale and St Mary's. We were looking forward to a school-free month, and were convinced that settling into the ways of the French wouldn't be too hard. After three movies, two stop-overs and twenty six hours, we touched down in France. Everyone started to panic and tried to remember one or two phrases that might just come in handy. Each with about four years of French classes behind us, we decided that we'd start off with a "Hello, I'm very tired." We went out to meet our families, but it was a bit of a problem for some of us who didn't have a clue what they looked like. After a while and no signs of a family, I thought I'd better ask someone. I was told that my family weren't there at all. On the way home, the family explained the situation in what they thought was perfectly plain French, but by the end of the trip all I had learnt was that my friend's host father liked classical music. After an hour or so my family came to take me home, or so r thought. I spent two days during Easter with the Violle family and then moved In with the family I was supposed to be with all along. As it turned out, they had gone away for the weekend and couldn't make it to the airport. In the next week I climbed the Eiffel Tower, went to school and settled into French life.
In the last few days we found we could find our own way around Paris and went on shopping sprees (so we wouldn't lose any money in the exchange, of course!). My trip was end ing and I would soon have to say good bye to my family at the airport, or so [ thought. As it turned out I managed to get a lift with a friend's family, which saved me from dragging my twenty kilo suitcase around the metro (under ground). r had been dreading this, and was sure I'd get lost and the plane would leave without me. Luckily it was OK. In the end, I got to the plane on time and got home safely. I really did enjoy my stay in France. and would encourage anyone who has the opportunity to go and spend some time there. In the second week my family and I drove from Paris to Ambletouse on the north-west coast of France. The jour ney took three hours, and we had to pay to pass through toll gates on the highway. I found out the French driv er's definition of courtesy when we had to enter the eight lanes of gates. This experience added a few new words to my French vocabulary. Ambletouse is a small town between Boulogne and Calais, where the "chan nel" to England comes up. D-Day landings took place nearby, and the nearby town of Boulogne has been rebuilt in many parts because of the bombings. Not many people live in Ambletouse, but a lot of teenagers spend their holidays there. They all know each other and every night there were always lots of them in the cafes, which are more like our bars talking drinking and playing pool a~d table ' soccer. Whilst we stayed in Ambletouse, my host sister Gaelle, her boyfriend Sam, and I thought we might as well make a trip over to England. We took a double-decker bus to Canterbury and went shopping for the day. We took the ferry back home, but the rough weather would surely have made even a strong-stomached sailor wish that the underground tunnel had been opened. Finally the last week came around, and I looked forward to a day at Euro Disney. It was great fun but it is really just a slice of America in France.

INTERCULTURA EXCHANGE STUDENT TO ITALY
In November of 1993 I was lucky enough to be one of thirty students who departed for two months in Italy, as part of the WAA TI( Inter cultura Italian Exchange Programme. When I first arrived in my town Monzambano in the province of Mantova in the north of Italy, it was hard for me being presented with a new family, a new language and a new lifestyle and I must admit that for the first week I was a little homesick. However, as J began to know my family I felt more at home, so much so that at the end of the two months r didn't want to leave for Australia. Even though having a sister of about my age was a new experience, I feel that it was an extremely posi tive one for me and I think that this allowed me to adapt to the Italian lifestyle more easily. Soon 1 found my host parents to be extremely affectionate and lively people and everybody in the family made me feel at home. My typical Italian day began at 6:30 each morning when I would wake and prepare to take the bus to Lake Garda where my school was sit uated. While in Italy I attended the G. Bagalla Liceo Scientifico or
Scientific High School. I would have to say that perhaps one of the biggest differences between the Australian and Italian lifestyles is the school sys tem and the attitude that students have towards their studies. I became accustomed to not wearing the uni form after one or two days but I still found the timetable quite tiring. The students would work for five hours with only one ten-minute recess, which came as a definite relief. How ever, the best thing about the Italian schools was that students would fin ish at one o'clock in the afternoon. Being in fourth year at a Scientific Schooll studied most of the scien tific subjects as well as subjects such as Latin and Philosophy in which I found myself quite bewildered. The relationship between the teachers and students was very much a formal one. They would lecture and later interrogate, or orally test the students. My family took me to see many places, from the beautiful shore of Lago di Garda (the largest lake in Italy and a popular tourist centre) to historic Verona (the city of Romeo and Juliet), Milan (the commercial capital of Italy) and to the unique
city of Venice. It seemed very strange to see a city without roads, where boats instead of cars served as all forms of transport ranging from floating police to floating funeral processions. J was also lucky enough to see the spectacular sights of part of the Alps where I went trekking, ice-skating and I saw lots and lots of soft white snow. I will certainly never forget these two months. Not only have I gained another family and made many friends but I have also learnt a lot about myself and the Italian culture. I found Italian people to be open, affectionate and generous. Darcelle Dixon

INTERCULTURA EXCHANGE STUDENT TO ITALY
On Sunday 28 November 1993 at 3:45pm I boarded the plane along with thirty other students from Western Australia, for nine weeks exchange in Italy. It was one of the best days of my life, even though I was scared. I was worried whether or not the plane was going to crash, whether or not my fam ily would arrive at the train station to pick me up and whether or not I would regret leaving Australia and the people that I loved for the next nine weeks as I went to a country completely unknown to me. As usual, and thank fully, I worried needlessly - the plane didn't crash, my family was there as soon as I stepped off the train and I was hosted by one of the best families one could hope for. I stayed in a place called Ancona, on the Adriatic coast of Italy. There were wonderful beaches but it was winter and it was absolutely freezing. I stayed with a family who lived in a warm. cosy villa on the outskirts of the city. [ became part of a family with two SIS ters; Benedetta who was fifteen and Costanza. who was twelve years old. They were both welcomlllg and fun to be with, as was the whole family. It was hard at first getting used to the way of life, the food (although it wasn't that hard), the language and school. However my family made it easier for me and I got along with them really well. They made my stay so much more memorable. They also took me to visit the most wonderful places. We stayed in Rome for four days where I saw almost every tourist attraction. We visited Assisi and then in a campervan we trekked up to a place called Cortina d'Ampezzo in the Dolomite Moun tains. It was here that I saw snow for the first time, skied (or tried to ski) and understood what 'cold' really meant. From there, we travelled up to Venice for the day which was so beautiful and romantic. I generally had the best time of my life. I really enjoyed school because of the social aspect. It also Improved my Italian. I met so many people and made many new friends. Everyone was so inviting, warm and friendly. Christ mas and New Year's Eve were very

enjoyable as were the times when I went out dancing with my host sister or shopping (which I did too often). Then unfortunately, my nine weeks were up and it was time to leave. How ever, I came back to Australia with so many memories that will remain with me always. Immense thanks to my host family in Italy and also to Mrs Maio and to those who selected me to go on exchange. My time spent in Italy is something that I will never forget.

INTERCtlLTlII~A EXCHAN(;C STllDFNT FROM ITALY
Hello All Silints' Collcgt. Wtll. .. My experiencc here in Australia has heen really wonderful and unique. a lot differcnt tu what I expected. It had aln:ady hegun while I W;lS racking my suitcase and I didn't know what to hring. At the airport I was really excited and couldn't \\ait tu meet my new family. hut at the salllC time I was a hit sad and I thought two months was a really long time. Tt wasn't long and now I would not like to leave at all' I knew in Australia I would see kangaroos, emus and koalas and I now love them. I am taking one home with me. a toy one of course. I didn't actually know anything ahout the down under country and I didn't expect to find so many differences. First of all your school is different to mine especially in the buildings, hours and subjects. Also the uniform. I have just got used to, is good because in Italy thinking about what to wear every morning is a problem. Talking about subjects. I tried all those I can't do in Italy like Woodwork, Applied Art, Early Childhood Studies . Photography and I enjoyed them a lot. I also joined many Italian classes and that was the best fun. At school everyone has been nice and friendly from the first day and has helped me making a lot of new friends. Mrs Carter and of course Mrs Maio have helped me a lot as well and have been really wonderful. Here I had a terrific time thanks to them, to all my new friends and of course to my host family, the Ponton family. They have been absolutely fantastic and have considered me like a "daughter". With them I had a Christmas in July and went to many places: to Kalbarri, where I had a wonderful time, to Perth and surroundings, to the zoo, to Underwater World and to Cohunu Park, where I could cuddle a koala and this was really amazing. I will miss you all a lot and I am sure I will come back to Australia, hopefully in the near future and maybe by that time I will like Vegemite! CIAO EVERYONE

JAPAN LANGUAGE AND CULTURAL TOUR
School life in Japan was very differ ent to school life in Perth. For starters, many of us had to wake up in the very early hours of the morning just to make it to the train station on time. We then had to stand on a crowded train for up to two hours - not eve ryone's cup of tea, however we man aged to grin and bear it. Once we arrived at Nakano Station, it was about a ten minute walk to Otsuma Nakano Girls High School. Those of us who got off at another station had to walk up to 4 km to reach the school. At school they had six periods of fifty minutes, with a ten minute break between each. The school consisted of a main building which was five storeys high, a gymnasium and a relatively small synthetic sports field. When we got to school we had to take off our school shoes and put green slippers on, which made it very difficult trying to climb the stairs to our room on the fourth floor. Many of us learned to shuffle along the halls very quickly. The most enjoyable things we did at Otsuma were learning how to do Japa nese calligraphy and Ikebana (flower arrangement). We attended many Eng lish classes, in which we each had to do a self-introduction and then answer numerous questions. The most amus ing aspect of school life was their phys ical education curriculum which involved handball (that is passing the ball from one person to the other) and skipping, where if one beat was missed
The Otsuma Nakano and All Saints' College softballteams.
it meant ten push-ups for the whole team. All of Otsuma's teachers were quite a lot of fun, especially our favourite sports teacher, Mr Tojo. During our two weeks at Otsuma we went on several outings, including Tokyo Disneyland, a museum and sev eral temples and shrines. On the whole, going to school in Japan was an interesting, enjoyable experience, and much was learned about the students way of life. There were teary goodbyes when we bid farewell to our host families, although we were all looking forward to the next week of our trip when we would be touring Kyoto and Nagasaki. After saying good-bye to our host families, we checked in at the Asian Centre where we spent a quiet night. We had dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe, which we all enjoyed immensely, partly because it was a change from all the Japanese food we had been eating. The next morning we had an early start to catch a suburban train to the largest station in the world, Tokyo Sta tion. Here we boarded the bullet train to Hakone. We took the tourist route, which included Mount Fuji. Unfortu nately we couldn't see Mount Fuji because the weather was foggy and overcast. That afternoon we boarded the shinkansen (bullet train) for a five hour trip to Kyoto. When we finally arrived in Kyoto we checked in to a traditional Ryokan (hotel) where we slept on futons. In Kyoto we visited Sanjuusangendo which is famous for its 1001 full size Buddhist statues, each one unique. We also visited the famous Kinkakuji, a
temple which is plated in gold, a museum and Samurai Movieland. The main highlight was the archery contest which is only held once a year. Our nights were spent on Kyoto's main streets, where we ate dinner in restau rants on the top floor of a department store. We then took the Shinkansen on a one and a half hour trip to Himeji passing through Hiroshima. At Himeji we visited the largest existing castle in Japan complete with a moat containing koi. After that we went on a three hour bullet train trip to Nagasaki. In Naga saki we also stayed in a Ryokan. The public transport system in Nagasaki is quite old, trams being the main form of transport. Over the next three days we went to the Peace Park, Peace Museum and the hypocentre which marks the place where the atomic bomb was dropped during World War n. We also visited Glover's Garden. Thomas Glover was the first successful western merchant in Japan. The highlight of our stay in Nagasaki was the day trip to Mount Unzen, one of the few active volcanoes in Japan where we visited the hot springs. After our stay in Nagasaki we took a nine hour Shinkansen trip back to Tokyo where we spent our last night at the Asia Centre and had our last dinner in Japan at the Hard Rock Cafe. We all enjoyed ourselves immensely and would like to thank Miss Kilcullen and Miss Claire Carney for the experience. Japanese Language Tour Group

DRAMA
THE
NA
The Bald Prima Donna was a uni que experience for the cast, crew and confused audience alike. Performed by the Year 11/ 12 Theatre Arts Class on May 9th, 10th, 27th and 28th; Eugene Ionesco's Absurdist comedy was brought to life through the talents of Ms Derrington and the Senior Drama Class. Based on the Existentialist Philo sophy of time having no meaning, The Bald Prima Donna presents us with the long forgotten experience of waiting. At the premiere performance the cast too encountered waiting, as the bewil dered audience held back their not-so spontaneous applause. Fortunately the lighting Director (Clive Hutcheon) doubled as a convincing Claqueur. Although the cast found the script hilariously funny at the first reading (excluding a certain College Captain), after weeks of strenuous rehearsal it grew extremely annoying and after a sharp nudge by Ms Derrington we finally learnt our lines and it all came together the night before the first per formance. Much of rehearsal time, however, was spent organising the shy Mrs Martin (Jadanne Heuchan) in her restrained 'love' scene and deciding on the number of clock chimes, although they managed to miraculously multiply on the night! The cast and crew thoroughly enjoyed the preparation and perfor mances and the result was a credit to their abilities. The evocative set and properties encouraged the audience to feel involved in the intimate conversa tions and story-telling, as if they were visitors seated on a third settee. As the play progressed, the onlookers became increasingly drawn into the nonsensical banter, so that even the arrival of the local Fire-Chief (on the off-chance of a fire to extinguish) seemed an everyday occurrence. Thank you to all those who contrib uted in some way and especially to Ms Derrington for pulling us together when we were ready to give up. Joanna Hughes

COLLEGE PRODUCTION: PASSAGES This year, instead of performing a large script-based production, our group dared to be different. After nearly one hundred hours of rehearsal, our group of just fourteen students (mostly Year Tens) produced a piece which was uniquely ours. We chose to work with the theme of books and reading, focusing on the journey that lies within them. Our workshops revealed hidden connota tions in books, such as our love of escaping into them, the passion to con sume them and the danger of losing all the history and culture held between the bound cover of the books we love. We used ideas found in two Australian novels by John Marsden to spark our imagination and to provide us with the character Argus and his passage into manhood. Play-building is a theatre technique that develops strong bonds between all company members. Through this method, we have all had a large and direct input into this production and we would like to thank our directors for introducing us to this co-operative hands-on process which resulted in many lasting friendships. Who loves us and who do we love? Averil Linden! Her committed time and effort has made this production possible and we could hardly forget her numerous flatmates' escapades, her mother's pet sheep Marylou and her strange encounters with pet dogs whilst on family car rides! She stayed with us through the changes and disappoint ments and kept us together with her
positive encouragement. We especially thank Krisztina Bodonyi for her cho reography of our production. She taught us how to move and how to mime; these are skills which trans formed our piece and that we will keep on using in the future. I'm sure we will all fondly remember "telling the text" in years to come. Thanks also to Ms Derrington for her organisational skills and encouragement. Monica Barrall

CHESS REPORT This year has been an exciting year for the All Saints' Chess Team. Our two teams enrolled in the Chess Coun cil and were placed in the Premiership and "c" Division leagues. Our Premier Team, captained by Wesley Lamont and consisting of Robert Nichols, Cameron Fletcher, Michael Ciantar and Raymond Cheung had a consistent effort marred only by one win in the fifth round! The "c" Team captained by Andrew Shugg, consisting of Mark Bertinshaw, Stuart Munro, Matthew Sargeant and Tom Cheung, has had a great success with only one loss and look likely to enter into the finals. Overall the year has taught us much and we can all be grateful for the experience. Both teams would like to thank Mr Sampson for his efforts and assistance and for providing transport to the var iOUS venues. The Year Twelves wish all the best to next year's teams and hope they can achieve as well in the years to come. Wesley Lamont

YEAR 9 WOODWORK COMM UNITY SER V ICE In Term Two Mr Schirinzi approached the Year nine's taking Woodwork and asked us if we would like to do a community service project of making toys for the Meerilinga Early Childhood Resource Library, We all had many ideas about what we would like to make, so we all came up with some designs. In one of our classes lane Roberts
from Meerilinga came to speak to us about what sort of toys would be suita ble, telling us about how different age groups of children like different sorts of toys. She then showed us some dif ferent types of toys that we might like to make (but I must admit we had a lot of fun with these!), After this visit we started on our mock-ups (scaled down versions of the real thing) to see if our toy would be suitable, Once we had finished these another lady came and looked at our toys and gave most of us the go-ahead. We started work on our toys and by the end of term hardly any of us had fin ished our projects, so now in Term Three we are still work ing hard to finish them. When they are all finished they will be donated to Mee rilinga, so lots of children can enjoy them. This project was lots of fun and very interesting. Taryn lones

INTERN A IION AL WEEK Australia has the largest ethnic diver sity in the world after Israel. Interna tional Week at All Saints' College cele brated the unity of cultures of our forty different ethnic groups. The week had a vast array of activi ties which included a special assembly addressed the Minister of Multicultural Affairs, Mr Graham Keirath, a dance presentation by the Filipino Associa tion of Western Australia and a candle light ceremony representing the differ ent cultures we come from. The rest of the week was taken up with music and dance from Switzer land, India, Chile, Portugal and Greece, gourmet food and delicacies from many countries of the world, Jap anese tea ceremonies performed by our Japanese homestay students involved with the College, Japanese floral arran gement displays, guest speakers from various countries, debates and quizzes. A special feature of this Interna tional Week was a cross curriculum which featured four countries: Spain, Brazil, China and South Africa. Stu dents were allocated to these groups and teachers from various disciplines taught material related to these countries. One day of International Week was a rice day and the money collected from each student was donated to Rwanda. Many thanks must go to the organis ing committee, which involved the stu dents, staff, parents, friends, ethnic associations and State and Local Government in this massive logistic exercise.

NATIONAL ENGINEERING SUMMER SCHOOL In January of 1994 I attended the National Engineering Summer School (or NESS) at the University of Newcas tle. in ew South Wales. I was one of four WA students to attend, having been selected through interviews by Rotary Club. There were about one hundred and fifty students at NESS, with as many girls as guys attending. The program was very sensibly organsied and very sensibly conducted. Monday and Tuesday consisted of lectures in the morning and Lab ses sions in the afternoon. On Tuesday we had to choose a project to do later in the week. Monday night was semi serious problem solving and Tuesday night was a quiz. Wednesday was tour day. We visited A Gonninan Co, who were making trains; BHP Steel Rod and Bar Mill. where steel was refined, and the Port Waratah Coal Storage facility, where the freshly mined coal of Newcastle was loaded onto ships. Wed nesday night was a river cruise and dinner. On Thursday and Friday morn ing we worked on our allocated pro ject. Each project was allocated to a group of four. My group were in the computing section working with com puter images. Friday evening was our formal dinner and the results from the project judging were announced - my group won the computing section and we each received a cash prize from BHP, the main sponsors of NESS. Sat urday morning we were all herded back on the bus for Sydney - the camp was over. When I touched down in Perth, 1 knew that I had gained much - 1 had only to ensure that I never lost it. Overall, the NESS was an enjoyable experience that never once involved touching pen to paper or using a calcu lator. The social atmosphere encour aged people to work in groups making NESS what it was. I recommended the NESS to any upper-secondary student with a minimum of vague interest in engineering. If you get Rotary sponsor ship. the trip is really worth it. The NESS has been one of the most educa tional (in a fun way) experiences of my short life. Andrew Shugg

SENIOR INTER-HOUSE QUIZ COMPETITION The 1994 Senior Inter-house Quiz was one of the most exciting ever held. The format for this year's quiz was dif ferent from that used when we had only four Houses and it was feasible for each House to compete against every other House. This year the Houses were divided into two groups. Group 'A' contained the first and fourth place-getters from last year. (Sti rling and Forrest respectively), together with one of the new Houses, Cowan. Group 'B' contained Murdoch and O'Connor (last year's second and third place-getters) together with the other new house. Durack. Within each group a round robin competition was held. In Group 'A' Cowan was unlucky to finish a mere four points behind Forrest which had the highest score across all teams. The competition in Group 'B' was even closer with Murdoch and O'Connor both finishing with exactly the same number of points. A play-off was held between these two teams to determine which would play Forrest in the final and O'Connor was the lucky team.
The final saw a tremendous see-saw competition and with one question left (a possible seven points) Forrest 48 trailed O'Connor 53. A hush fell on the room as the last 'starter' question was read: "What well known phrase is represented by the following verbosity: Gyrating conglomerates fail to accumu late liverwort?" For a few seconds nobody pressed a buzzer, the hush remained, the ques tion was repeated, Shourik Chalterjee buzzed - "A rolling stone gathers no moss" he said and the scores were tied at 53 points a piece. The bonus ques tion "Who was the well-known leader of the pop group, The Rolling Stones?", was a foregone conclusion and Forrest had clinched the final, 55 points to 53.

SKI TRIP Gathered at the airport, we were very excited. The day had finally com ; July 16 1994. At 12.55am we departed Perth Airport and our week of excite ment began. After 3 hours of travelling on the plane and 6 hours of travelling on a coach we finally arrived at Falls Creek and settled into Halleys Lodge. After we had unpacked, we all went down to the ski hire shop and hired ski gear for the rest of the week. A walk around the village topped off the day with some of us seeing snow for the first time. As we travelled ear lier that morning we had an early night. Next morning we took the Halley's Comet chairlift to the ski slopes. We soon met our ski instructors for the week, and were split into 2 groups. We all tried to ski and soon learnt the bas ics and got to know our ski instructors. After our first day of skiing we were all keenly anticipating the next day. The next few days were the high lights of the week. There were many individiual and group falls including skiing right into a lift line. The lifts were a difficult situation! There were many people who mastered them bUI of course there weren't a few wh(: didn't, including a couple of staff (Mr Whipp and Mrs Green). At night time wc would do many dif ferent activities including playing cards or pool, swimming in the spa or heated pool, having a sauna, having a quiz night, and one night we even had a disco with many other schools. By the end of the week we were all skiing intermediate or even experienced
-
slopes. On Saturday, our last day of skiing. we were ali very ad to leave the slopes and our ski instructors. Many photos were taken and many souvenirs bought so that we could remember our great holiday. For the last time we took the chair lift back to our lodge and returned our ski gear. On Sunday morning we dragged our suitcases to the bus and prepared for another six-hour trip. At Perth Airport we were greeted by our families. Our holiday was over. On behalf of all the people on the Ski Trip we would like to thank the parents and staff, Mr Whipp, Mr Col tins, Mrs Green and Mrs Western. Thank you so much for a great time that we will never forget. Kim Tribbick. Kim Hands, Ciaire Derbyshire. Naomi Quartermaine

HOUSES
BUSSELL Bussell had a very busy start to the year. After the Year Sevens elected the ~ery able House Captains, Taryn Seph ton and Julian Wilmot-Barr, they set about encouraging their team in a var jety of activities. They began by organising the collec tion of Easter Eggs to take to an Old People's Home close to the school. After a week of collecting, they were able to deliver three large boxes of dif ferent sized eggs to Father Terry, who then delivered them to the home. The old people were thrilled to receive them. Towards the end of the term, the House swimming carnival took place at Canning Pool. All the Bussell House members gave their best effort in their races and the loud cheering. Many peo ple were quite hoarse by the next day. After an exciting relay finish, Bussell came second to Molloy, by five points I Congratulations to Year Six Champion Girl Vanessa Thackray and the Year Five Runners up - Leigh Mason and Paul Collings for their special efforts on the day. In second term, Bussell House per formed well to win both the Inter House Quiz, and the Winter Fun Games Day. Talei Longbottom, Cameron Hugh, Mark LaBrooy, Nigel Kerr, Benjamin Bowden and Jason Backshall did a great job of answering the hard quiz questions and worked hard to make it a team effort. The combination of points from all the Upper Primary teams in the Winter Games competition, created a big win for Bussell. The Junior Primary teams also did well - they came second in their activities. Unfortunately, our class

house points did not follow the same successful path. the house points fluc tuated quite a lot during the term. Third term saw the start of the Athletics season. The Year Four Seven students participated in the Inter-House Cross Country. Bussell finished fourth when all the points had been tallied. A special commendation
to Peter Heavens who was the Year Five runner up and to all those stu dents who completed the course. Later during the term, Bussell will participate in the House Athletics Car nival. With our record of team effort, Bussell should fair well. Thanks to Bussell House members for your support over the year. Ms Burns. Taryn SephlOn and Julian Wilmol-Barr

DRUMMOND After a very close election. Emily Moore and Bradley Avery were elected as captains of Drummond House early in February. The Inter-house Swimming Carnival held on 7 April indicated that Drum mond was not going to be known for its swimming competence, compared with the other houses. Rahni Greene was our only swimmer to really make a name for Drummond by becoming the Year Four champion. Throughout the carnival Drummond did provide strong competition for the other houses, even though at the end of the day we were fourth. During the last week of Term Two a "fun and games" day was organised for Years One to Seven, giving Drummond an opportunity to show its strength in another activity. Keen competition resulted in Drummond gaining first place in the Years One to Three section and second in the Years Four to Seven activities. Overall Drummond was second with Bussell the victors. The Inter-house quiz provided a competitive end to Term Two with Drummond gaining second place, nar rowly defeated by Bussell. August finally arrived, providing an opportunity for Drummond to display its real strength i;l the Cross-country event. Friday August 5 was an ideal day for the ross Country not too warm or too cold. Early in the event it was clear that Drummond was at last
about to show its true colours, scoop ing up many of the winning points. From the beginning of the race right through to the finishing line one family of th ree boys excelled, the Avery fam ily. Bradley (Year Seven), Jason (Year Six) and Nathan (Year Four) each fin ished first in his age group. Rahni Greene (Year Four) also gained first place in her division. Jamie Williamson (Year Seven), Matthew Dempster (Year Four) and Morgan Phillips (Year Four) all gained second place in their divisions. Points from the Cross Coun try will help to raise our position in the ongoing house competition. Later this year Drummond will arrange a fund raising activity for sup porting the Rwanda Crisis. On August 23 a Drummond lunch will be held in the barbecue area. Drummond students have worked hard in every activity this year. Con gratulations Drummond. Thanks to Mrs Kelly, Mrs McQueen and Miss Oldershaw for their assistance, ideas and enthusiasm as Drummond staff this year. Congratulations and thanks to Emily Moore and Bradley Avery for their consIstent enthusiasm and organisatIOn. Mr R Plumb

MOLLOY Molloy House started the year strongly and due to the tremendous team spirit, (and rambunctious war cries) we achieved first place in the Inter-house Swimming Carnival, and consequently we led the charge in first term. In second term, points were divIded into three main areas. • Classroom work and behaviour, whIch we led. • The House Quiz whIch was an excit ing event with the lead changing hands several times. The Molloy team grabbed the front at one stage and after much thought and deliber ating, we attained tlmd position. • The final competitIOn was the Win ter Games. All students competed hard for their House and the scores were very close - Molloy came a respectable third! The combined scores resulted in Molloy achieving second place in Term Two. Other events such as the House singing and the fund-raising have enhanced House spirit. We have high expectations that we WII! repeat the performance of last year, and with the help of the House Captains - John Willett and Kym Abbott, Molloy House will come home strongly. Mr J Chappell

RILEY The legacy of Archbishop Riley is the concept of "care", which has been amply demonstrated by our House Cap tains, Victoria Paul and James Drysdale, who have encouraged each member to participate in all activities and give of their best. Early in February, on a steaming hot day, Riley came third in the swimming carnival. Watching Felicity Sar geant swim like a dolphin was a sheer delight and her happy expression relayed the pride and excitement all Riley House felt, when she won the Junior Championship. Daniel Blackney was Runner-up Year Four Champion and Sean HOllthuysen Runner-up Year Seven Champion. The Inter-house Quiz day was held late in Term Two and proved to be most entertaining. The Riley House gurus were proud to know the answer to the "Chunnel" question! This was closely followed by the Winter House Games, where once again Riley House members showed fantastic concentration as they dribbled the hockey and soccer balls, charged in the egg and spoon races, turned somersaults, played at wheelbarrow rides and shot for goals. Students helped one another complete each task and a delightful camaraderie developed. The Cross-country Inter-house Race was held early in Term Three. Riley House students showed great courage and tenacity, (especially when many suffered painful stitches!) to complete the event. All were star participators and are to be congratulated for their efforts. Another highlight of the year was the improved harmony of the Riley House singers, due to expert tuition small donation, will hopefully raise funds to buy food, clothing, clean from Miss Chappell with her sing alongs! The rousing choruses of "Tie water and medicine to ease the suffer Me-Kangaroo-Down" made everyone ing of the Rwandans.

JSHAA BASKETBALL LIGHTNING CARNIV AL On Thursday 24 March ten Year Seven students represented All Saints' College at the JSHAA Basketball Lightning Carnival held at Perry Lakes. The team included Rhett Brown, John Willett, Scott Ethering ton, Christopher--Scudder, Nicholas Barry, Sian Smithson, Tristan Aldrich, Simon Vos, Jamie Anderson and Julian Wilmot-Barr, all of whom are highly skilled and experienced players. As to be expected, the team was very competitive, winning all four games in the qualifying round and finishing on top of their division. First place on the table meant a play off for first and second in the tournament. In the final, All Saints' played the very strong New man College side. The game was a very hard fought affair with the lead chang ing hands many times in the second half. In the end Newman proved too strong and All Saints' went down twenty-three points to nineteen points. All of the players are to be congratu lated on their outstanding performance. A very special mention must go to Ella Tribe and Danielle Smith from Year Ten who officiated as referees and scorers on the day, leaving me to con centrate on the coaching. Mr M Tay/or

FITNESS CLUB AND CROSS Now in its second year, the All Saints' Fitness Club has gained in popularity and is functioning very smoothly. Participants meet three mornings per week at 7.30 am to partake in half an hour of aerobic exercise before meeting to share a healthy breakfast. This year the children have a choice of two groups to participate in. The first of these groups works under the shared guidance of Mrs Sally Ramsay, Mr Jeremy Chappell and Miss Kate

Bevilaqua (Year Twelve). The children in this group do activities which include aerobics, circuits, relays, skipping and games. The second group is led by Mr Michael Jenzen and these children almost exclusively work on running. Incorporated into this group's activity is the Cross-country training and so children in this group train quite vigor ously, culminating in the Inter-school Cross-country and Athletics Carnivals in Terms Three and Four. A large contingent of parent helpers organise the breakfasts each morning and without their assistance the Fitness Club could not exist. Many thanks must go to Mrs Eleanor Papamatheos and Mrs Leonie Jones for their efforts in co ordinating this aspect of the Club. In addition to the obvious benefits gained by beginning the day with exer cise and a healthy breakfast, one of the most enjoyable aspects for the children is the socialising during the exercising and the breakfast which follows. Sub sequently, our children do very well at all the carnivals. The Fitness Club is open to any child in Years Four to Seven. Mr M Jenzen

NETBALL Enthusiasm and commitment have been shown by all members of the J un ior School Netball Club during the 1994 season. Training began early in Term One in very hot conditions. Players in Years Four and Five thought that the begin ning of the season would never arrive as they regularly practised their newly developed skills. The big day arrived on the first Sat urday of Term Two when two All Saints' teams took to the courts at Gib son Park in the Fremantle Netball Association's Sub-Junior Competition.

SWIMMING Friday 4 February may well have been just the third day of the school year but we were diving straight into things - literally. The 'Swimming Trials' were held in beautiful weather at the Canning Pool. The children were raced off and timed in preparation for the lnter-house and Inter-school carni vals which followed. Free swims between races guaranteed a fun day was had by all. The following week our Inter-school squad was chosen and so began our training - three mornings per week at the Canning Pool under the guidance of Mrs Ramsay, Mr Taylor and Mr Jenzen. Following our early morning work-out (yes, the teachers swam too!) we were greeted at the College by warm toast and refreshing fruit juice prior to beginning our school day. Our Inter-school competitors com peted in two carnivals, the first of which was held at Christ Church where we raced against Christ Church and John XXIII. The second carnival was hosted by Newman College and was an all co-ed affair. A total of seven schools partici pated. As with all JSHAA carnivals, no points are recorded in keeping with their aim of friendly competition and participation. Our Inter-house Swimming Carnival was held in perfect weather on Thurs day 7 April. This year saw a new approach with boys and girls compet ing against one another. In addition to tbe traditional events there was a spread of novelty events ensuring every child participated in at least three events. The carnival ran smoothly and was a great success. The final part of our Swimmmg Pro gramme were the lessons. This was to be the first time that All Saints' College would have lessons taken by Accre dited teachers enabling the children to be placed on the Swimming conti nuum. By the end of the year all child . ren from Years Pre-primary to Five will have had instruction in enclosed water environments and those in Years Six and Seven in an open water envir onment. Other than a delay in receiving the certificates, the lessons were most successful.

WINTER GAMES On Wednesday 22 June and Thurs day 30 June, the Year Sixes and Sevens respectively, participated in a JSHAA Winter Games Day. The day was orga nised by the JSHAA Girls' Physical Education Teachers. The students had the opportunity to participate as a team in either Soccer, Netball or Hockey matches. The aim of the Winter Games Day was for all students to have the chance to participate as part of a team, and to interact socially with other schools. It also gave the students the opportunity to practise the skills of these particular sports, which they had learnt through out the Term. Every student had as much playing time as any other, and all students were given the opportunity to
play in different positions on the court or field. Although students entered into the competitive spirit of the day, no scores were recorded and obviously no final results were announced. A number of Year Ten students gave up their time on both days to assist. They umpired matches as well as coached a team. Their help was invalu able and enabled the day to run smoothly. The Year Six and Seven students have responded with positive feedback to the Winter Games Days and look forward to participating in similar days next year.

CAMPS
Camp Week for the students in Years Five to Seven was a very exciting end to Term One. The class teachers organised these camps as an extension to normal classroom activities and as an opportunity to pro vide challenging and stimulating activities in a different environment. The Camps are an excellent opportun ity to develop group skills. co-operation, friendship and self esteem. The many parents who also joined the students on these camps provided much needed extra help and expertise. Here are some comments aboUl the camps written by the students.
YEAR 5 ROTTNEST CA MP On 11 April the Year Five class boarded the White Dolphin feeling a bit nervous and excited at the same time. At about 10.30 am we walked from the boat to the campsite that would be our home for five days. During our five days of wonderful experiences there were a number of highlights. • Fishing was an exciting morning exercise with Susan Sephton and Mr Manning catching fish. Some of us were not so IUl:ky. • Going around the island on our bikes (all 27 km), we discovered many beaches and many people greeted us. It was fun but tiring. • We rode to Parker Point and had a swim. There were so many stingers that Mr Chappell caught three in his mask. • Another big hit was mini-golf. We played that for about one hour and then went and built sand castles for a competition. The group that built a mermaid with shells covering the tail, won the competition. • Red Rooster for dinner on our final night was a very big hit. This meal was followed by the concerts and the camp fire. This was one of the best nights. Felicity Sargeanl

YEAR 6 WOODBERRY BOSTON ENVIR ONMENT Ai CAMP Fifty two excited children boarded the bus heading for Torbay. It took two hours to reach Williams where we stopped for morning tea. Our next stop was Kojonup. After six hours of the bus journey we finally reached Torbay. The camp is set mostly in bush area, vcry high and overlooking the ocean. Our hosts were John, Forrest Mark and Tony. During the week we played down at the beach, and had an Aqua rium day when we caught fish, and drew pictures in the sand. Some of us went snorkelling. In the evenings we had spotlight games and sing-a-long sessions with Mr Taylor. Wednesday was the day of our hike. At first we thought it was going to be easy but two hours and many sore feet later, we achieved our goal, the cliffs at West Cape Howe. We all had to admit it was a breath-taking sight. It was here that John told us some history about the area. It was time to make the biodegradable parachutes made from biscuits, wool and tissues. Then we leaned over the edge of the one hundred metre cliff and dropped our parachutes. We were securely roped so that no-one could fall over. Thursday was the Lowlands beach day. After a swim in a five metre swell we had a sand castle competition. Nobody won, but we had a good time. When we went rock climbing some of us got soaked. We saw a blow hole and swam in a rock pool the size of a swim ming pool! When we came back from the beach we set traps. Six groups caught some
thing which looked like a mix between a mouse and a bit of kangaroo. Thursday night was Party Night. With a live band we danced the night away with folk and free dancing. Next was Red Faces and of all of the six acts, "Not Nigel", won. On Friday we each bought a small souvenir in Albany and headed home. Andrew Chiang alld Nigel Kerr

YEAR 7 KALGOORLIE CAMP Year Seven went to Kalgoorlie to learn more about mining and its his足 tory. While we were there we went down a real mine - North Hannan's Tourist Mine. We saw a rock drill, a machine called the widow maker, we heard the screamer which supplies air to all the tunnels and we saw the mini train that carries ore to the surface. Above ground we went on a small train tour of the complex. We saw a gold pour, went to Paddy Hannan's tent, where, by means of a hologram, we heard about his life and his gold dis足 coveries. We saw examples of some miners' living quarters, which were very basic huts. We walked up historic Han足 nan Street and saw Paddy Hannan's statue and looked over the interesting Council Chambers. We saw loads of hotels and old buildings and we were astounded by the dates on the top of them - one was 1895 - so that makes it ninety-nine years old' We visited the interesting Goldfields Museum and saw replicas of some of the gold nuggets. We went up the head frame on a lift and saw the whole town. We tried our hand at prospecting and Scot! Etherington was lucky to find a few grams of gold. We tried our hand at the famous game - "Two up". We all had bets and Mr Plumb won $1000 - unfortunately it was play money. We visited a ghost town, rode cam足 els, viewed the super pit - the biggest open pit mine in the world and we went to a sheep station, a cemetery and another museum. We walked lots, we played lots and ate lots of good food. Jamie WilIiamson and Richard Baillie

NOTABLE
In line with our policy of extendmg capable students in various areas of interest, a number of competitions were entered this year. The Mathematical Association of Western Australia ran the IBM "Have Sum Fun Competition". Twenty-one primary schools from south of the river sat for the quiz on Saturday 9 April. The All Saints' College Team One and Team Two came first and third respec足 tively. Team One consisted of Ben Bowden and Dean Golokin (Year Five), Mark La Brooy and David Miller (Year Six) and Rhett Jones and Peter Ward (Year Seven). Team Two consisted of Tracey Wong and Andrew Miller (Year Five), Karen Sheh and Max Jeganathan (Year Six) and Endriko Winata and Jacqueline lai (Year Seven). Congratulations to these students. Year Three students from All Saints' College entered the Scitech "Build a Bug" competition. They decided to study the life cycle of the case moth and they created larger than life models of the pupa and the adult moth. Their entry was judged best overall out of 536 entries from both primary and secondary schools. Matthew Boyle of Year Four entered the individual cate足 gory for Years One to Fou r. His cross~ section of a house fly won him first prize as it was the most scientifically accurate and creative of all 162 bugs entered. Year Three won a Fuji Tech Computer for their classroom and Matthew won a family Scitrekker membership and a free visit for his class to Scitech. During August all students in Years Five to Seven sat for the Australian Science Competition. Certificates of High Distinction were won by Mark la Brooy (Year Six), Daniel Chan (Year Six) and Peter Ward (Year Seven). These students achieved in the top one percent of the State. The Jun足 ior School was awarded fourteen certif足 icates of distinction (top ten percent of the State) and forty-three certificates of merit (top twenty percent of the State). We were delighted with the success of Mark La Brooy who won an ESSO Award which recognises him as the top student in the State for Year Six.

MUSIC AND
DRAMA
MUSIC AND DRAMA [s there life after Junior School Con certs? I trust there is, but at the time of printing it is three days before our big night and anything post Concert Night has the ethereal glow of the after life. The concert will highlight various Music groups in the Junior School, including the Training Choir (Years Three. Four and Five) and the Junior School Choir (Years Six and Seven) involving approximately one hundred students overall. The Pre-Primary and Year Two classes will be performing movement to Music and Year Four will be playing their own compositions. The Year Sixes will be performing part of their Musical, "Readin', 'Ritin' and Rockin'" which they will perform in its entirety later on in the year. under the guidance of Mr Jenzen. Mr Taylor and Mr Palmer. The Concert will also include items from the Dance Group and the String Ensemble Groups. There are now three string groups in the Junior School under the dynamic leadership of Mrs Salmon and they. along with the Choirs, have been involved in concerts for Friends of Music and various assembly items, and other fund-raising activities. A new ensemble recently started by Mr Palmer, the lunch time Recorder Ensemble, has made a great start and will, I am sure make a fine debut at our Concert. Another innovation this year has been the Junior School singing sessions where the whole Junior School has met for some giant sing-a-longs. These have been good fun as indeed we hope all the musical activities in the College are. At the end of the day the important thing is that Music is about enjoyment (I keep remindmg myself, and then eve ryone else!) Ms D Chappell

VETERIN AR Y STUDIES IN PRE-PRIMAR Y Pre-Primary children have been studying the care of the family pet. They visited the local Veterinary Hos pital where the students learnt how to care for their pets and the types of experiences their pet might encounter when visiting the Vet. We certainly have many promising veterinarians at work in our version of 'All Saints' Veterinary Hospital'! One particular highlight of our theme was a very wet experience of washing Watson - a much loved fam ily pet. He stood very patiently and bravely throughout his cold wash. Many hands rubbed and scrubbed him, but he was to get his own back with a large shake at the end!!

THE
157
FROM
EDITOR
In 1991 I was asked if I would take on the role of advisor to the Student Publications Sub-Committee. I said "yes", thinking that advising the Student Committee would be a pleasant job. Little did 1 know that "Advisor" was another word for Editor and Publisher, and I proceeded to very quickly learn a great deal about what it takes to produce a school Year Book. Here I am three years later and still learning new things each day. My job as Editor of Co/umba has been very interesting and rather challenging. 1 have learnt a great deal about a field that was completely unknown to me three years ago and despite the hard work and sleepless nights, it is extremely rewarding to see the finished product. I feel a great sense of pride when hundreds and hundreds of pieces of paper and photographs are transformed into one publication. This year there has been a major change in that Co/umba will be distributed on the last day of school; instead of in Term One of the following year. I decided to make this change as a result of pleas from students who wanted to receive Columba on the last day of Term Four. This will enable them to get it autographed and to take it home as a memento of the year while it is still relevant. As [ spent Term One
prod ucing the 1993 Co/umba and I was on long-service leave in Term Two, I have had eight weeks to put this year's edition together. 1 have tried to make it as comprehensive as possible, but time restraints may mean that some things have been omitted, hence I apologise for any omission. I would not have been able to produce Calumba /994 without help and I would like to thank the following people: Mrs Jenny Andrewartha for proof reading the Junior School articles; Mrs Maureen Bradshaw for being my reliable, super efficient proof reader; Mr Keith Brewin for selecting the art work for the cover; Mrs Kathleen Carter, who apart from taking my Italian classes while [ was on long-service leave, worked on Co/umba both during Term Two and during the holidays; Rebecea Coombs and Nina Snowden for their fantastic photos and athletics and staff collages: Ms Patricia Derrington for helping Mrs Kathleen Carter with the distribution of Tutor Group photo sheets; Mrs Leonie Kirke for her help with photo days; Mr Tony London for his swimming, camps and activities collages; Mrs Susan Pascoe who jumped in when [ was desperate and volunteered with a smile to proof read all the names on the Tutor Group and staff photos; Mrs Jill Green, Mrs Megan Lewis, Mrs Gill Stone, Mrs

Glenys Watson and Mrs Carrol Western for typing the text and Mrs Jill Williams for co-ordinating the Junior School material. This year I have had a very enthusiastic Student Committee from which have come some good ideas and they have been available to help when needed. Heading the Student Sub Committee as ChaIrperson, Elizabeth Pellicano has worked tirelessly compiling the Year Twelve section, re writing the Year Twelve profiles and more. Thank you to the Committee for the long hours spent naming photos and photocopying and putting together the Junior School section and for the biscuits, popcorn and salt and vinegar crackers. Finally, 1 must thank all the staff who did not run away when I approached them with one of the dreaded green sheets and those who got their articles in on time. To all those who offered a smile, a hug or some kind words when things got tough, I thank you. As this is my third Co/umba, I feel it is time for some new ideas and as I hand over the pile of green sheets, I wish the new Editor and Publisher all the very best for the production of Calumba /995.

CHAIRPERSON'S
MESSAGE
/n every moment of our lives, we are surrounded by change. Life can be described as a series of natural and spontaneous changes. I used to think that change was some kind of evil entity, however / now believe that change is a natural part of life and that one must experience change in order to grow. As /, and many others, step from the safeguard environment of the College into the big wide world, I feel a little terrified. School helps to shape our minds into thinking in certain ways and also helps to form views and values concerning the world around us. It is a place where irreplaceable friendships are formed and unforgettable memories are created. As we depart, we leave behind the discipline. the daily rituals. the security, the relieffrom the responsibility of any major decision making and the strong sense of conformity. From here, we embark on ajourney into the 'real' world, learning to survive on our own without that guiding hand and at the same time being encompassed by change. Throughout all the lows and highs of our College lives, memories form as changes act upon us. Memories, some of which will be forgotten and others, always remembered. Memories, over which tears were shedfrom either happiness or perhaps sadness. Having compiled the Year Twelve section in the 1994 Columba, / have witnessed how precious these memories really are. / have seen the joy with which people reminisce. Throughout the Year Twelve section, as well as throughout the entire Columba, memories have been imprinted, and hopefully these memories will remain preserved in our minds forever. I thank all the people who were involved in the compilation of this section in any possible way. /n the following years, / wish every member of my Year the utmost happiness in everything that they do ... Stride forward with a firm, steady step into the 'outside' world, knowing inside that you will achieve every goal. Remember that life is meant to to be lived. Make the most of it and always be happy. Welcome change and keep the memories alive.
Elizabeth Pellicano
