FROM THE CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD The l.1st tew months h,1Ve seen members of the Board of Management ,llld College Executive ge[[lng together to create a StrategIC PLlll for rhe next ten years, Just as we would not conSider taking a long triP UltO an area we've never been without a road m,lp, the College must, like any orgamsatIon, plan where it wants to go Jnd how It's going to get there. A StrategIc Plan acts JUSt like a road map, provldmg a plan whIch ensures that all management deCisions focus 011 our future goals and obJec­ tives, The Strategic Plan has required us to exannl1e College operatIOns 1ll detal!, together With perceived strengths and weaknesses, so that we can be clear on where we are Jt the moment m the areas of currIcululll, teacher expertIse, student demographlcs, fJcIlitles and resources.

\Ve have also developed operating objectives or, 1Il other words, specific steps we WIsh to take In order to get to where we want to be 1Il the next ten years. These operatlllg objectives have been selected so that the College can contmue to develop and improve, mallltam ItS position in regard to other edncatlOllal bodies, and rem<llll an dttractlve optIOn for a wide range of swdetH groups. HavlIlg deCIded where we are 'now' and 'where' we want to go III the future, we now need to develop the 'how' or, If you will, the road map to help us 1fl achlevmg our operatll1g objectIves. Next term we Will be dL'velopll1g projects, programmes and InitIatIVes to meet the operatll1g objectIVes already set, ThiS process extends well beyond bricks and mortar and wIll cover pastoral care, teachmg methods and

technology advances. The Strategic Plan, when completed, will act as a yardstick and focus for the Board of Management, School Executive, teachers and admll1lstntIon statT together with related entItIes such as the College Foundation, Parents' and Friends' Society and Former Students' ASSOCIatIOn, \Ve will, I'm sure. face many obstacles and detours on our travels, but the Strategic Plan \Vlll help us to ensure that the declSJons we make are deSIgned to move us in the right du-ectIOn. I look fonvard to reponll1g fur rh er when the Strategic Plan has been completed and approved by the Board of Management. In the meatHlme, my thanks to both Board Members and the College Executlve for their efforts towards thiS project.

FROM THE PRINCIPAL

Colt/ll/ba embraces, in a pictonal and written form, the whole of the life of [he College IJl [he year of publlcanon. Observall[ members of [he conllnumty will know [hat Co/ulI/lla IS really only a 'snapshot' of what goe on III the complex life of this \\'onderful org,mism-All Samts' College. The snccesses of our SWIl11ll1ll1g, cross­ country and athletIcs reams. the JOy expenenced through the Rock EIsteddfod, a College ProductIOn of dlstlJlctlon, our Wide range of challengll1g camps and a very full and exciting Junior School programrne are all docull1ented here for you to enJllY. And yet we canllot hope to capture ,111 of the experiences which take pLll.¡e III a College that is a hIve of constant <md productive activity. Editing thiS robust <llld hvely lllclgazinc is a real challenge, not merely tl'om the point of view of the workload but also fi'om the POint of view o( choosing what should be leti: ol1l-and

subsequently Illcurnng the wrath of those artIcles' authors. There IS also the editor's concern about how the magazme will look and feel: wIiI it faithfully represent the things we wish others to assoCIate with our College? Will It capture the ll1tangible essences of the College? These are the thmgs that concern the editor as the magazine moves through the gestatIon perIod to ItS bmh. Re,lders of Co/ulI/ba wdl vary from those who read every word to those who look for their picture and then, after a bnef look to see that it is acceptable, pur the magazine safely on [he shelf. In amongst the group there Will also be those whose lot in life is to look for errors, missing captions and page numbers out of sequence. Others will only give certam sec nons a cursory glance Such is the audience for magaZll1es, and CO/llmba IS one of the genre. However, anyone who has thIS

7

magazll1e In therr hands, Irrespecnve of their c1asslficatlOn-loyal reader or inclifferent browser-wIll not be able to escape the vital colour and positive en rgy of the young people portrayed in these pages. We take partIcular pude III the fact that the vast lTlaJonty of the articles 111 CO/III/1lw are wntten by the students themselves. I am dehghted to be m their company bel:\veen these covers, as I am to have been in their company in the College during this very busy and exciting year. The young people of thIS College have the capacIty to energIse their teachers and each other, and the synergy of all these people makes up what we call the spint of 1\]1 Saints' College. rt IS my pleasure to ll1vlte you to do more than browse: to 1I1dulge yourself 111 CO/II/1lba 1996.

'/996


FROM THE COLLEGE CAPTAIN

As 1996 draws to an end, we are able to look back and reflect on the eventful year that is now behind us. The year has been challenging and exciting ,1I1d there have been many events whIch will be remembered for a long time to come. 'The Executive has worked hard organlslllg numerous eWllts and has also attended a nUlllber of oHicial functions. I WIsh to thank rhe Student Ex,'Lutive and the Student Council for the tireless work the\' put in this year, and for all the things they achieved. It has beell enjoyable working with you all. The first-and at the time most Illlportant-activity undertaken was rhe handing out of the Executive Room keys. After the task was completed there was a mad rush to see who would be the first to open the door. The task ahead was enormous, as we had to clean out the renmanrs oflast year's Executlve while keeping what was Important, then fit thIrteen people IntO ten places. We were soon at home-fndge turned on, radIO gOIng-and contemplatl11g the task ahead. The next one and a half semesters were to test the effectIveness of the group. The Exec. Camp, which was held late last year, gave us an Insight mto the tasks we were to achIeve dunng the year. The Student Executlve mcet1t1gs saw a flurry of discussIon as everyone wanted to supply theIr Ideas on each of the tasks we were to fulfil. The most Important of these tasks lIlcluded the Slime o a\', held earher 111 the year, whlCh had also been held by a previous Ex,'eutive. This actIvIty lIlvolved the slinung of several Year 12s (includmg half the Exec.) and a few game teachers, Il1clud1l1g Mr Dundas and the one with the sWlllnlllng goggles (Mr Williams). Students then p:lid for the pnvdege of slnmng one or all of the parncipants With ,1 green concoction created by some ExecutIve members. It was a fun aCtlVlty, the worst parr of whlCh was cleal1lng the slime off later. Another event whlCh must not go

Ryan Brogden, College Captain

Without a mentIon was the Student Council Executlve Ball, whIch was once agam held at Fremantle Sailing Club. It was a very enjoyable evenmg and congratulations and thanks must go to the Entertall1ment CommIttee, along WIth some devoted parents, who orgamsed the event. It was a hard task greeting 350 people, but once offiCIal dutles were complete It was excit1l1g watchll1g the dancing styles of vanous people (including some teachers). Free Dress Days added to the list of achIevements, with the money ralsed g0ll1g to varIOUS chanties. The Staff vs Students Cup was held once again (commiserations to the staff, but thank you for the effort). Leavers' gear was also gIven out (includ1l1gjumpers, long­ sleeved shuts and boxer shorts). Other actlvltles run by the Executive were tht:' Vanery Night, formerly called the Cultural Evening, and the maugural Battle of the Bands, both of whIch were eruoyable events for all who attended. On the social scene, a number of

8

Executive members were able to attend some functions held out of school. The first of these was a Youth Rally which was held at Government House with the Governor in attendance. Representatives from schools in Perth heard the Queen's Commomvealth Day speech and taJked to the Governor on the lawllS afterwards. A Leadership Day was also held at Hale School, where all student leaders from schools around Perth llIet to discuss the qualities of a leader and the different ways leadership systems are arranged at each school. These, along with other activities, have enabled the Executive members to interact with other students in similar pOSitIOns. 1996 has also seen the end of an era as the College sajd farewell to Mrs Klrke, who retired thIS year. It was a bIg farewell, part of whIch mvolved SOllle members of the Student Council and the Student ExecutIVe jOlmng together to run an offiCIal farewell ceremony in Assembly. The Student Executlve has worked closdy wLth Mrs Kirke this year and she will be nussed by many people, but [ am sure that she is enjoying her retnenlent. ThIS being the year of saymg 'thank you', thanks must also go to Mrs Knox, Mrs CosteJlo and Mr London, who proVIded both the E:-,.ecutive and Council With adVIce and help when nee',ied. ThIS year has been a fultillmg y,':lr and I have learned a lot from my position. It has been great work1l1g WIth such an energetlc group, and we have been extremely successful. I WIsh next year's Executive the best ofluck l0r the year ahead, one that I'm sure ",··ill be as full of challenges and surprises as thIS year has been for us. In closmg, I would like to than k all those people who have hl'lped throughout the year. Now that we have left our mark, It is tlllle to move on and look to the future.

PARENTS' AND FRIENDS'

As we approach the end of the thIrd quarter of '1996, I can reflect upon the ,lCtlVltles of the Parents' & Fnends' AssoL'I<1tlon wlth a grc'lt deal of pleasure. Havm::; now bel'n involved With the P&F tor three ye'ars, I have gradually learned of current concerns and promotions whIle gathering knowledge about the past t'tforts of this group of volunteers. As WIth all org'lIllSatlons, it is mevltable that a need IS recognised for the tormatlon of an offiCIal represen足 tative body to promote the opinions, fight the battles and arrange the commurucatlol1S between all interested partIes. In the 1I1stance of the P&F, yOIl are a member of the 1I1terested parties. Whilst there IS a membership fee to officially welcome people to the ranks of P&F membership, the partICIpatiOn 111 the events and activities that are arranged to help foster our Ideas and Ideals is of much greater value. In the past. the P&F has represt'nted a cOl1SldtTable lorce m the provISIon of fund1l1g for additional facilities, be they bUlldmgs, computers, books or general educational Implements. Many of these ltems do not bear Jny mark to show how they were purch'lsed, how many fundralSlng hours were expended by parent volunteers or how much unpaId work was requm~d to supply them. It IS sufficient reward tor those involved to witness the productive use of these facilities as a lllL'olnS of enhancmg what we already belIeve to be an excellent educatIonal establIshmenr. I have explamed the structure of the p" F m prevIOus College publicatIOns. 1 trust you wIiI all now realise that the Loldles' Foru1l1 and FrIends of MUSIC are both very Important parts of the overall

orgal1lsatlon. WhIlst they 1ll.IV .1ppL';lr separate, we support c'lCh other 111 nuny actlvItles and all 'pull togt,ther' tLl adueve success. ThiS war Ius, 1 hope, made thIS aspect of our orpIllsation very clear, ,IS we have s,'en the Ladlt's Forum ,md P&F ge'l1l'rollly supportm::; the FrIends of MUSIC concerts, while the Ladies Forum also pledged support for the P&F orgamsed entry into the 'Ciry to Surf' fun run. We have also calkd upon the support of the All Samts' stalf for assisLmL'e at the JUJ110r School Discos. These two evenings proVIded huge entertainment for the students, allowing them to enjoy a wide vanery of music in a friendly and non-threatenmg situation. These evenmgs also gave us a chance to mvolve the semor students 1ll the hghtll1g and special effects. It has to be said that some of the parents and upper school students appeared to have a really good tIme at these discos. Unfortunately there has been insuffi足 cient nerve to show the photos m Calumba, but rl1lS all augers well for a P&F Disco m the future. Our mam fundrJlsers, the canteen and ul1lform store, have both been managed IlTIpeccably, provldll1g excellem servIce and qualiry products to students and theIr families. I '\lould like to congratulate both Nola O'Byrne and Ruth McCracken for theIr lllamllloth effort towards a succt'ssliJl year. In additIOn, [ must also thank both the permanent and volunteer staff m each facility. A huge amount of work ta kes place be hmd the scenes and it IS these indIViduals who ensure that everythll1g IS completed on tIme and to the requIred standard. In kt'L'pmg with ptevlous ye,Hs, the

P&F has lJlan'l~t'd to provide consid足 erable fUlldlllg for the College in 1996. We have subSIdIsed hIgh achievers in sport, re~ular sports training events, the Rock 'n' Roll EIsteddfod, the Lower TheJtre completIon, a teachers' Wish List and much more. The Ladies' Forum has also donated a great deal of tlllle, effort and llloney towards the cont1l1ued Improvement of the College. Dnnlung fountall1s will now be Jomed by additional landscape Improvements 111 the form of highly Visible seatll1g arrangements, all thanks to the cont1l1ued efforts of thIS tireless group of mothers. It IS also thanks to the Ladies' Forum that eleven All Salllts' College teddies are now experienc1l1g life in Japan, as gIfts to the Otsuma Nakano exchange students.

FAREWELL TO MRS KIRKE INTERVIEW WITH THE FORMER DEAN OF STUDENTS Mrs Kirke joilled All Saillls' College in 1981 as a part-time member of the foundation staff. She grappled with builders and architects while Ihe new College emerged from salld alld bllsh before taking 011 thefull-time role of Head of Sciellce in 1982. Mrs Kirke lIIas appoillted Assistant Principal (Adll/illislmtioll) ill 1988, and her positioll Ilms rCllalllcd Deall of Studw!s ill 1996. Before retirillg from All Saims' in JlIly 1996, Mrs Kirke spoke to MOllica Barraft abollt I,er CIIrrellt role, her previolls role,~ I,cr Illellwries alld her all/bitiolls-both for Ilerself alld for the school. Whal folloll/s is all edited tmllscripf of fhaf illfervielll. MOllica: Okay, I like this first question because I'm interested m knowlllg what the expectations for the school were dunng the foundatIon years: what did you thmk It was going to be like in fifteen years' tUlle;> Mrs Kirke: [ didn't thmk that far ahead. I initially came here and thought it would be mteresting for a year or two: [ didn't have a long-term plan. I was interested In thIS school because it was new and [ would be part of the plOneenng, and I hoped I'd have a chance to express my Ideas and be mvolved in the planmng, and that did happen: but I didn't imagme myself here m fifteen years' time. The College has grown a lot faster than I expected and there have been changes, either phYSICal or m terms of pl~nning and development, virtually every year. That has been a lot of work-but I could never say I've bCL'1l bored and It has always hccll ~ chJllen!:,:e.

MOllica: WhICh other schools had you worked 1Il;> lvIrs Kirke: [' d worked at Wesley for a short tllllt' ~nd as ~ relief for someone on long-service leave. [,d worked in a leading girls' school m Sydney for three years and did some relief teaching, and I'd worked In the Curriculum Branch-so I had a reasonable spread With whIch to compare All Sall1ts'. I Imagllled It would have the son of ethos alld Ideals that an mdependent school h:ls. but that It would be di£l:erent becaust' It was co-educatIOnal. MOllica: 1 like that. There are so many smgle-sex schools-It's Just diffetent. Mrs Kirk,.: Well It IS. Not a 10t,Just the natural way 10 which the boys and girls Il1teract: they treat each other naturally-:ls fnends. The friendship bIt IS very sIgnificant and the thmg I've notIced with former students, such as the first group I rook through fmm Year 8 ro Year 12. MOllica: When dId that first group graduate;> Mr.' Kirkc: 1985, and many of those young men and women are still friends, which IS slgnific~nt. IVI"llica: So die '81 class was the first to ~o nght through;>

12

Mrs Kirke: '81 was the first. There were three Year 8 classes and one Year 7-120 students. They formed a little pool m the amphitheatre Out there. Monica: And that was Assembly? Mr.' Kirke: That was Assembly-for three to four fuU-tulle teachers and half a dozen part-time teachers. Manica: Who were they, the full­ tlmers~ Are any still here? Mrs Kirke: Mr St;lpleton and Mrs Wilhams are the only twO still here. Then there was Mrs Prescott, Mr White-he was m Manual Arts-a part-tIme libranan, a home economics person and :1ll .lrt teacher. Mrs Williams, Mr StJpleton and myself are the 'stayers' . The tlrst ye:lr I came [ was part-time. I was .lsked to go full-time, but I h,ld three children at school and I felt that h.lvmg three children, starting a new school ;md startmg a SClellce department was too much. At the end of the first year, however, 1 thought yes, I'll go full-tune. To st'lrt with I was lIlvolved WIth architects m plannmg labs. SI and S2 were bUIlt tirst plus a bit of a staff room, and then we added on the rest, but for the first war and a blt-l thmk It was almost t~ the end of tJrst term before we actually went mto labs-we did science in the home economics room. lvlanica: Yeah. I came here when I was in Year 5 and there was no chapel, no music department, all this space next to the JUl1lor School-which was just fom classrooms. It's amazll1g to think that there's a whole JUl1lor School there, a chapel...all these new things. M,s Kirkt'· Well, we had the amphitheatre-that \vas there ,It the beginning. C Dlock-we had cookmg, metal, woodwork rooms, a tmy admll1. building-and that was It. MOllica: When dId the PA Cemre get here?


FAREWELL TO MRS KIRKE

i\[rs Kirl-ic: At least four or five years into it. I i'emember the librarian used to talk Jbout gomg over the 'Gobi Desert' when she went from the stJff room to C Block because it was just a sea of sand-no bwn. no brick pavin a , bits of concrete siJbs. ,\follim: WeLl it's aLl there now l .\ lrs Kirkc: Yes. MOllim: So what were your positions when you became full-time) Mrs Kirkc: I was Head of Science for about seven and a lulf years, and I've been in this position for neJrly eight. MOllica: Assistant Principal? Mrs Kirkc: Yes. although my title IS now Dean of Students. A1ollim: From what 1 can see it's a very busy job in which you spend a lot of time seeing people and doing every­ thll1g. How do you feel about it? Mrs Kirkr: It is busy. Jobs grow and you take on extra things, and somehow things evolve and develop. I used to do the teacher reltefs 1I1 addition to every­ thll1g else, although Mr Groves hls now taken that over. The worst moments used to be when I knew that one or two teachets were gomg to be out on an excursion or something, and then I'd get to school ;lIld find that two people had rung 1I1 sIck so ['d suddenly have to find replacements tor them as well. Then maybe half an hour later I'd hear that somebody else was sick, and I'd hwe ,1 distraught student ,It my door, then a distraught parent. and I'd be supposed to be teaching my Year 12

class in five minutes. Those would be the worst bits, when the unexpected gets in the way. That's pan of the nature of the pastorll side of my job, del ling with problems that aLl need lttention at the same time and can't be prioritised: it can be pretty frantic. A/ullim: I was just wondering about the disciplinary role you take in the school. Do you do that because vou h.we to) Is that part of the brief? . .\1rs Kirkc: It is part of the brief, yes. I don't find it pleasant to deal with serious disciplinary problems-I'd rather there weren't any. I suppose by nJture I'm a pacifist-] like things to be harmonious. A/ollica: Were you ever involved in the music side of things) lVII'S Kirkc: WeLl early on we all had to do things other than our own subject area. so until '88 [ did all the accompa­ niment for anything required for CoLleo-e Productions, Assembly, recital nights and so on, because we didn't have a music director. I enjoyed it JII. MOllica: I'd like to know what you would most like to be remembered for. Mrs Kirkc: I find that difficult to assess, because people don't teLl you, do they) But I've always tried [() uphold the ethos 'lnd the standards that we set and the Ideals th'lt we have. In dOll1g so I try to treat people IndiVidually Jnd not be unthll1k1l1g and uncanng 111 the way I deal WIth problem Situations or dIfficult diSCIplInary situations. That's what rd like- people to remember. N/ollica: Yeah, you can't JllSt disClphne someone-they might Just do It a~,lin: yOll need to work Out the ,'IUS,' of the problem. Mrs Kirke: WeLl yes, and discuss with them why we have thiS situatlO11, the reasons why we ask people to behaVe' 111 a certain way aud the 111lpact It has on other people. Those sorts of things. So from the pastoral care Side, that's the way I've tried to operate, alld I hope that's come across ,1Ild that the students see it th'lt way I know I've had some students who have been really difficult ,It school who have come back a couple of years Luer-after they've left school-and S<lld 'Mrs Kirke we know we gave you ,I hard tlme... but you were really fall' and wt' liked that'-that's the

13

sort of thing I like. And In terms of other things that go on at a staff level for the school, I feel that when I set about doing things I'll always make sure I see them through to the end. I'd like to be thollo·ht of as being innovative .ll1d brino-ing things to fruition by the leadership that I show and by encour­ aging people to work as a team. t\lollica: You like the group work? .\Irs Kirke: Yes-to be able to work with others so that you CJn recognise different people's strengths and allow them to work in certain areas on a project, which then comes together. One Jspect of my job is to head up the pastoral care team, which of course includes heads of House and the guidance counselling and FatherTerry's role and so on. The heads of House have their own group, but we certainly meet every week. I feel I've pia ed an

Important part In developll1g that House system. whIch IS the basis oC pastoral care, and I've been able to help people work effectively. Likewise the camp programme, whIch has been going the way we have It now fot seven or eight years. N/ullica: Camp is a totally different experience from school life. I find they're really enriching, especially the retreats-they were great. Mrs Kirke: I think being able to relate to other people effectively IS probably more Important than knowledge, whatever you do 111 life--be1l1g able to get along With people. Those people who don't avail themselves of these other opportumtIes miss out. You can'[ force people to take pan, bur It IS enriching because I['S not Just the activity you're involved Ill, it's the ramifications of being II1volved With a group. Monica: Learning how to work With everyone? Mr, Kirke: Yes. On a personal level,


FAREWELL TO we have staff development weekends where the Adventure Out staff offer abseiling, caving weekends and so on. I've only managed to get to one, last year: I did the ultimate abseil down Bluff Knoll, not having done it before. That's supposed to be for expel'ienced people so it was a great thrill. I think that's something we do here for staff­ one aspect of staff development which is not done in other schools.

I\Ilolliea: What would you like to see happen in the College over the next five years~ 1\Irs Kirkc: Well, this is not in ,my particular order. One of the things I'd like to see is really academically strong students not being ashamed to excel amongst their peers. There are some who don't try because it's not cool to be seen to be bright. I\Ilolliea: I know that problem. 1\Ir, KiI'kc: It's not umque to All Samts', but It's a shame. I'd also like US to be really superlative m the musIc area. We've come up a lot, bm It would be mce to keep going so that more really good musicians would want to come here. Then I'd like the Year 12s, partlcu­ lnrly, to be able to take more responsibtlity for their own learnmg so that the tranSItion t"i'om school to uni or school to work, where no one IS ~()m~ to come along and check on you all the tune, will be easier. 1\lolllm. How can we do that? 1\Irs Kirkc: Well, we are working on some Ideas at the moment. It may be pOSSIble to emulate some aspects of post­ secondary education wlthm the school. Students are already accepting more

MRS KIRKE

responsibility-senior students, not just the ones who are elected to positions but people who are seen as leaders and good role models for the younger students. I've seen that increasing a lot in the last two or three years. MOllica: Yeah-there are thirteen students in the Executive Committee, but then there arc vice captains and people in sub-connnittees. Loads of people are involved now. !\Irs Kirkc: Yes, it's all the people who are involved in coaching and managing the teams for the Year 8s and 9s, who help with the Inter-house matches after school and go on camp and help out: all those things are great. I'd like to see that continue and grow even more. [ suspect that the people who are involved O'et a lot more out of it than th people they do it for. MOlliea: I think so too. Lik pe r support. You go through it in Year 8 and then you get the chance to do it in Year I I. Then you do it again in Year 12 on retreat. You get more and more out of it, the older you are. Mrs Kirkc: You see a different depth. fI![ollica:You see a different thing come through. Everyone tries to cooperate. I couldn't believe how well our first retreat group worked together in the em!. One group we were in had too many leaders m the beginning. Everyone kept telling everyone else what to do-no one was Listening l We had to learn who the leaders were. When we got one person to lead, it worked. But when everyone is talking and no ouc' IS ltstening, nothing gets done. A[1', [(Id,(': Yes. that's true. I'm a gr at beltever 111 the: programme of retreats. I thulk I've been to one or tWO every year slllce they started, whIch was n111e or ten years ago. Students used to say 'Can't we have another one later m the year to follow up, to regenerate and activate that feeltng again?'. We would do a lot more 111 school If we had the tIme. On the tedlllologlcal front, moves are afoot to ensure that we're at the cutting edge. I'm sure that will happen. This is obViously the way of the fuwre-Il's gOll1g to change educatIOn so It's important we're not left behmd. [ th111k we've done pretty well, conslderll1g our age. The really old establtshed schools have support from former students,

1.+

invest1l1ems and so on. Considering our age and our bck of that financial base, we've done extremely well and far exceeded what I imagined we would have done in the time. J\!ol/i{(l: I'nl Just wondering why you want to retire. Ml's Kirk(': I just feci it's time to have some time for me, and for other members of my family. The job is almost all consunung, so I've had to let a lot of my interests slide completely. [ don't ever open my piano at home­ ever. My husband retired just over a year ago and recommends it-he says it's wonderful to have time to pursue interests of your own. I feel I would like to do some of these things and share them with my husband and the rest of my family. I've got three SOilS still all living in Perth. They all have their own lives, of course, but it would be nice not to be so tied from my end, anyway. NIol/ica: So is there one particular highlight of your time here~ Mr, Kirkc: Being a foundation member of All Saints' and seeing the evolution of the school has meant a lot to me. Early on, highlights were estab­ lishing the Science Department and that growing to the present situation, where we have a very strong Science Depart1l1 nt working as a tearn. That has been very satisfying. MOl/iea: Is there anyone in particular you want to mention or thank? Mrs Klrkc: Well I enjoy working with the staff, no one person in particular. The way Mr London runs the College allows decision-making to be shared: he makes the ultimate decision, but he involves staff 111 the process. So ['ve ellJoyed workll1g WIth hUll, and I've enjoyed workll1g with Mrs Knox: It'S a very harmonIOUS staff: people have conUllon goals, which is good. lvfol/ica: So will we see you at Speech Night? Ml's Kirke: Well I know thiS Year 12 group pretty well, havmg seen them all grow up through the years, so It would be l1lce to see them fimsh. MOl/lea: We'd like that too. Mrs Kirke, I'd like to thank you for glvmg up your time to talk to me. On behalf of all the students and staff at the College, we smcerely WIsh you all the best for a happy and fulfilhng retirement, and hope to see you back at the College from tune to ome, too'

In the sporting arena, Eggy has been a valued member of the ACC Hockey Team and the ACC Cricket Team (someone had to bring out the drinks). When Eggy isn't performing his twelfth man duties with as much pizzazz as he can muster, he may be found explaining 10 anyone who will lislen about the 'one inch' that separated his golden-duck-firsl-ball-plumb-LBW decision from a six. When 'The Eggmeister' isn'l at school, he can be found wearing one of his many black t-shirts and listening to his favourite band, Metallica. We wish Eggy all the best (what else?) in his lifelong desire to become a professional photog­ rapher and remain twelfth man for the Kardinya Lakes Third Grade Cricket Team. AN DREW WYERS 'Wyer's' commitment to sporting activities can never be described as long term. Although Andrew competed in the Inler-school Swimming Team in 1993, his achievements since have not involved competition in any shape or form. Andrew's passion for computer games and after-hours gatherings should stand him in good stead for his high ambitions. The Science Department remembers Andrew's proposal for a particular science experiment-the elfect of liquid nitrogen on live mice-with horror.

YEAR 12

STUDENT EXECUTIVE CAMP

A very diverse group of Student Executive elects came together on Monday [4 December 1995 to undergo five intense days of leadership training, learning about boiled frogs and getting to know one another (anyone who doesn't know about boiled fi'ogs, feel fi'ee to approach any of the Exec. members-particularly Adam, who was an eager student ofTerry H wert!). ur memories began at noon WIth what we affectionately refer to as 'The walk fi'om hell'. With six kiJometres to the campsite ahead of us (which turned into an otfensive eight-hour trek), we headed off with our instincts directing us north, naturally discarding our c mpasses and maps. To our dismay It was 0 p.m. when we finally stumbled up the steps to the campsite to reflect on a day that was filled with Smith's twisted ankle, Annabelle's asthma attack and Ryan's heroic rescue ofShourik's near­ death experience over the waterfall. We soon rehydrated on red cordial and settled down to our first attempt at a 'meeting', feeling quite tidfilled after Father Terry's famous home-cooked meal. The following day Terry Hewett came to work with us and we listened to an unrecognisable recording, which to our disbelief \-vas the previous evening's meeting. Agreeing that squawking at each other is no way to hold a discussion, Terry swiftly produced a process that we could use in future Exec. meetings. Following the week under Terry's guidance, we kept on task with activities that brought out our individual leadership skills and dependence on each other, and our ability to paddle and sing at the same time. Our evelllngs 1I1cluded l111dmght toilet runs, heated discussions between Bee, Ki1l1 Hand Annabelle over the Eagles and the Dockers, indulgence in chocolate, combating our fears of communal showers with giant moths, and of course Ryan eating yet another pbte of food. On the topIC of food, when it came to our solitary 'sleepover' in the bush on the final night, everyone went somewhat mad (e.g. multiple jam and cream sandwiches-RYAN!!!). This lonely little adventure sent some blood pressures runnmg high, leading to a few over-anxIety attacks and heartburn. Wresthng with rogue kangaroos and unsupporting tents, there was little to do out there but th1l1k about the week

behllld us. Some of us slept, some of us wept, but we all made it home eventually-especially Cress, who arrived back at camp at 5.30 a.m. (never having woken up that early in her life!). So our days at Kooringal ended with our dreams of making a 1996 Exec. calendar !e;lding us into the future. ur

The Inter-hous<' Swimming Carmval started the year ott. Cowan was full of enthusiasm, but the talent displayed m the pool and the fantastic House splnt shown dIdn't make up for the many Il1Juries and mystery illnesses. Although we were placed SIxth, our splnt was not lost but remained strong. After a not-so-promising start to the year, the hopes of the House rested on our performance m the Cross-country. Once again Cowan's positive House spnit shone through With outstandlll.g performances from all competItors. Cowan fil1lshed a much Improved fourth. The Rugby 7s and Touch were next on the agenda and defimtely the hlghhghts of the year, with the girls' team remaining undefeated for the thu'd year 111 a row and the boys' team fimshing a very creditable thIrd. The Year 8/9/10 Inter-house Sport CompetitIOn, in its premIer year, proved to be a great success. The JUl1lors of the House certaInly made theIr mark through theIr high levels of skill and

I would like to thank every member of Cowan House for the support they have given throughout the entire year: whether It was encermg an extra event or coachlOg a team, your etforts were much appreciated. I would like to take thIS opportumty to thank my loyal Vice Captains Emily HaIJlday and Trent Passmore, whose contributlOns were lOvaluable.

w1I1mng the overall GIrlS' Cross­ country title, and great performances by Mark Hewltt, Matthew AlIen, Ryan Chorley and Lisa Tihetts, who all fimshed 111 the top four, helped gIVe us another first for Durack l By thIS time everyone agreed we were a force to be reckoned with. The Inter-house Rugby 7s and Touch Football were our next events to conquer, although we had some very tough competition' Due to IIlJunes, many of our top rugby players couldn't play, but the GIrlS' Touch Team did well-entering the finals, only to lose to Cowan first up. An event new to the House calendar, the Year 819/10 Inter-house Sport Competition, was welcomed by many lower school people. Durack was qL1lck and eager to fill teams, finishing fifth and second respcctlvely III the first two terms. With the GIrlS' 'Dream' Durack Basketball Team and legendary Boys' Soccer Team, we were always destined to ul1lsh well. Thanks must go to the many players, semor coaches, Miss Rlchens, Mrs van Dongan and Mrs Angel for thelr tireless support. Another new mtroduction to House acrlvltles was Theatre Sports, with

Durack fieldll1g brilliant teams. Again we were rewarded With a first place fimsh. Well done' Before endlllg, I would like to say thank you to everyone III the House for then constant enthUSIasm and effort, and to the tutor teachers and especially Kelly Combes, Troy Dyson and Kate Loveday for their leadership and support. I am very proud to say I was part of Durack and WIsh Durack the best towards our F1RST House shield. Above all, [ do have to say the bIggest thank you to Mrs Tyrrell for her dedIcation, undYlllg enthUSIasm and confidence 111 me and m our House, always. Best Wishes next year, good luck to the 1997 House Captam, and w10 the shield, Durack' Shanon Blazejcz:yk HOIHe Captain

Throughout the year, the level of participatIon and enthusl,lSIJl from aIJ members of Forrest House was hIgh, and It was these factors that helped FOlTest to pel-form. Lookmg back to the begll1nlllg of the year, Forrest had a great start. The Inter-house Swimming Carl1lval resulted III Forrest finishing thIrd behind Durack and Stirling. Outstandlllg performances from Vanessa TI1Jckray, Alex Norcross, Andrew Munro, Andrea McCracken, Swart Munro, Mlchelle Graham and LIZ Eaton helped Forrest to achieve tl1lS result. Inter-house Sport on Thursday after­ noons replaced the ACC competitIOn for Years 8 to 10. In the Year 9/10 competitlon, Forrest filllshed with the follow1l1g results: third In Boys' Basketball, fifth III GIrlS' Hockey, first 111 Boys' Hockey and equal fifth In GIrlS' Touch Football. The FOlTest breakfast was a great event whIch saw parents, tcachers and students from Forrest socIalIsmg and hav1l1g a pleasant breakfast. It also gave Forrest members the chance to famil­ lanse themselves with and welcome theIr new House Head, Mr Schlrinzi. Durmg Term 2, events such as the

Lookll1g back on 1996, it has been a year of mixed success for Murdoch. The competitions for the year began early in Term 1 with dw first event for 1996 being the Inter-house SWimming Carnival, and newly-elected VIce CaptaillS Scort Payne and Sarah Linton were put straight to work. Although not as successful In the pool as last year, it was great to see attendance re -ords lIIcrease and every competitor swilllllung to hIS or her full potential. Crowned champIOns for Murdoch were Sarah LlI1ton, Amanda Bracken and Matt Sargeant. Even those who dIdn't compete showed theIr support 111 the st:1nds, led by Slan Graham. ACC competition was abandoned thIS year for Years 8,9 and 10 but was replaced by the Inter-house Spore Com.petitlon on Thursday afternoons. Murdoch had many keen partiCIpants who were aided by dedicated Year 11 and 12 coaches and umplfl~S, who displayed thell' leadershIp skills. There were many outstandll1g team perfor­ mances, and next year I am sure even more players will be ll1volved. Keen Murdochians who dIdn't mll1d leavll1g theIr warm beds began early

mornll1g training sessions in Term 2. This marked the stare of a very successful cross-country event for Murdoch, with many outstanding performances from all year groups. Along WIth the cross-country, Murdoch had a lot of success in the lunchtIme touch and rugby matches, WIth the GIrlS' Touch Team narrowly losing to Cowan III the grand final after a bnUlant semi-final game against Stirling (even WIth a couple of players missing). After relaxll1g over the mid-term holidays, Murdoch returned fired up and ready for the next House event: Inter-house AthletICS. 1996 also saw the ll1troductlon of Inter-house Theatre Sports, with Murdoch havll1g more than enough people Il1terested and being the first House to fill a team. Saturday l110rmng sessions over a four­ week penod successfully prepared the Murdoch team.

During 1996, the incredible House spirit of O'Connor was displayed through participation, competition and extreme enthusiasm. With the return of Mr Radlch and the appointment of two Vice Captains, Adam Jakovich and Brad Johnson, O'Connor had a fresh start full of hopes for the year ahead. 1996 held a mixture of results for the O'Connor team. Overall it proved to be a very successful year. Although never takmg the grand pnze, the entire House performed to Its best on every OCClSlOn. The year began with the Inter-house Swimming CarnIval. ThiS was an exciting way to start our year, as O'Connor was leading for almost half the day due to the contlllual support of everyone 1ll the team. A special mention must be made of the year coordlllators LIZ Ronson, Susan Le May, Naorm Coleman, MarJan AV1111 and Stacey Coleman, who made the day [Un even more smoothly. Congratulations must also go to Sean Yost, John Willett, Demelza Evans, Alex Larson, Brad Johnson and Klm Hands, who won or were runners-up 111 their age groups. It was great to see the beglllning of our first cheer squad of the year, consist1l1g mostly of Year 8 girls, showmg O'Connor what they were made of. Unfortunately 1Il the end O'ConnOt came fourth: however thIS was only 111 p01l1ts, not 111 enthUSiasm. The next lIl~or event of the Inter­ house competition was the cross-country race. O'Connor not only displayed some outstandll1g results from FeliCIty Fletchcr, Alex Larson, Charles Street, Kim Hands and Adam jakovlcb, but worked together as a team to achieve a well-earned tblrd place. The touch football ,1I1d rugby sevens games also proved to be exclt1ng competitIon for O'Connot. The

K Hands (Captain), A Radich (Head)

champlOn Rugby Sevens Team, led by Vice Captallls Brad and Adam, reached the grand final against Stirling, while the Touch Football Team (which nearly always managed to have six players) dIdn't qUlte make the finals. The Inter-house Sport Competition (on Thursday afternoons) was inaugu­ rated thIS year. Tbls competition showed Just how many faithful supporters O'Connor has. Some of our teams had too many competitors, the coaches wete enthusiastic, and O'Connor fimshed equal third overall-a fantastIc effort. Special mention must be made of the Girls' Year 8/9 Socceroos, who topped the competitIOn WIth the greatest of ease' O'Connor's final effort, at the AthletICS Carmval, a.lso deserves to be pr;nsed. It was great to see the partic­ ipation and effort from every age group. At the end of the day, O'Connor came a creditable fifth overall' .I 996 was a fantastIc year for O'Connot. So many House members were always keen to support and compete 1Il House activities. [ thank people who were willing to cover for those who were unwell durlllg compe­ titions. Ic ,,vas also wonderful to see the

enthUSIasm and spmt displayed thIS year by the families at the O'Connor breakfast. I am very proud to have represented O'Connor in 1996. It has been an enjoyable learrnng process for me. However, I could not bave done It WIthout che invaluable support of my Vice Captallls, Brad J and Adal11 j, as well as che help of the other Year 12s.

K Tribbick (Captain), P Whipp (Head) 1996 was yet another fantastic year for Stirling House under our new Head of House, Mr Whipp. The year was a great success due to the hard work of many individuals and the team spun of everyone in the House. For Stirling House to be successful m the first Inter-house event, swimmmg, we needed participants and a huge team effort on the day. Stirling's success in the pool was evident by our roaring cheer squad, led by Jessica Cook, Robert Mellor and Peter Edwards, and our strong relays, which boosted us from fifth to second place, a fantastic effort. Throughout the day there were many outstanding swimmers, but It was definitely not individual efforts whIch produced our outstandmg results. On the deck many thanks went to Trent MoreschiOl and his walkie talkies; Bree Goff and Amy Gates, who worked hard all day with marshalling; and Adam Mitchell for his Stlrlmg effort. With no wmter and summer games, a new competition was Introduced for Years 8/9110: the Imer-house Sports, held on Thursday afternoons in Terms 1,2 and 4. Snrhng was well represented once aga1l1 1I1 this extracurncular activiry and the teams were full of talent. We were also lucky to have an enthUSiaStIc group of Year 11 and 12 students who volunteered their time to coach hockey, soccer, touch football,

basketball and rugby teams. Wade Machar ;md Annabelle Du Guesclin coached the Gnls' Touch Football Team to an undefeated vIctory in Term 1, and Catherine Kendall coached the undefeated GirlS' Hockey Team. All coaches and players should be congrat­ ulated on their team spmt and the hard work they put lI1to this competition to make It so successful. I hope next year Stirling wLll get the same encouraging response from participants and coaches. Stlrlmg's successful participation in the Inter-house Cross-country resulted 111 the House taking second place. Every age group was well represented with eager people ready to run the three or four kilometres which lay ahead of them. Many people in each age group receIved P01l1ts even if they did not come HI the top ten. It was an indiVIdual event for runners, but our successful participants made a strong team. MentIOn must be made of the efforts ofAmanda Patching,Jason Avery, SHT10ne Lindsay-Rae, Brad Avery,Juuan O'DonneU, Meghan Grant, Bree Goff and Matthew Jones. Inter-house competitIons are not confined to sport, as a new competition known as Theatre Spons was intro­ duced this year. StirlIng was one of the few Houses which was represented by a full team, and members gave up theIr time to tram on Saturday mornmgs.

ThIS team could not have been orgamsed successfully without the help of Annabelle Du Guesclin. The last of the Inter-house competi­ tions was the Athletics Carmval, and with our record over past years our team was ready for anything. All the events were filled by all age groups and the team spirit m the Stirling camp was outstanding. The day ran smoothly thanks to a huge number of helpers and the standard at which people competed. After a year ofGretzky stamps, House meetings and makmg teams, the year of 1996 for Stirling House has come to a close. There are so many people to thank for theIr huge contnbution thIS year-too many to thank personally. However, I must mentIOn my Vice Captains, Amy Gates and Matthew Jones, all Year 12 helpers and the whole Stirling team. The role ofStlrlmg House Captain was a great challenge. but proved to be rewardmg with such a team effort, and I wish next year's StirlIng House Captam all the best. My last thank you must go to Mr Whlpp for the support and help he gave me over the past year. Good luck for the future, Stirling!!

DEPARTMENTS DESIGN TECHNOLOGY A slgmficant development thiS year 111 the Design Technology Department has been the establishment of the Multunedla Technology area in E6. Twenty-one Acorn computers were lI1stalled around the perimeter of the room, leavlI1g the central area free for other related technological activities. These computers replaced the obsolete network in F Block. The relocation of'comput1l1g' to the Design Technology Department IS an lI1di ation of the growing emphaSIS on technology in the curriculum at All Saints' College, and its signiflcance to student-based learning. This multi-pur­ pose facility is used by students studying courses 111 Multim.edia, Graphic Communication, Computing and Technology. In some lllstances small groups from dif­ ferent courses share the room, enabling the College to max­ Imise room usage. Alongside this development, the metal area was also exten­ sively renovated, making the room lllore condUCIve to the smaller-scale work now under­ taken as part of a greater emphasis 011 Jewellery as well as the new courses 111 technology. These changes to the facilities in E Block reflect the contin­ ued review of our curriculum and the accessibility of a wide range of courses to an increas­ ing number of students of all abilities at the College. The annual Art, Design and Technology Exhibition pro­ Vided further evidence of the changes 111 course content and the greater emphaSIS on Te hnology. Robotic structures, solar-powered cars. multllue­ dla vldc'o presentations and dlgnal Image making are just a few of the many new applIcations of technology which are generated through personaJ research and enquiry. Alongside the more familiar processes of Cer'1l111CS, nutntion, fabric construction, wood turmng and many others, the DeSign Technology Department offers a chal­ lenging and diverse range of actlvltles.

CAREER EDUCATION BUSINESS IS ALIVE AT ALL SAINTS' COLLEGE

Earlier this year, Young AchievelTl~fl( Australia sponsored Mr Peter Alien, the Manager ofVisy Board, to conduct the Business Alive programme once agalll. Business Alive is a curriculum-based enrichment programme teaching senior secondary students about business through the experiences of a 'consul­ tant'-in this case Mr Peter Allen-fi'om a sponsor organisation. Teamed with a teacher, the consultanl spends approximately one hour per week with the students over a ten-week period. One of those classes usually involves an industry visit, further estab­ lishirl'7 for the students the link bet\ een theory and the real workplace. Our students visited the Visy Board fac­ tory in Palmyra. where they were shown alJ aspects of the business. They were also given an insight into the var­ ious career paths ~1Vailable to individuals wirhin Visy Board at that locality. Students now realise there is more to accounting then filing tax returns, more to fashion than catwalks and more to hotels than smartly dressed bellboys. Business Alive gives students an insight into the business environment through rhe enriching experiences of their consulc1J1t, ,It the same time allo\V­ IIlg businesses the VItal opportUl1lty to have input into educatlOll. There IS no substitute for practIcal experience when It comes to choosll1g a career path or enterIng the workplace. Business Allve gives students the oppor­ tunity to lean! more about the role of

busmess 111 the economy and its Inlpor­ tance 111 securing Australia's weU-being. At the end of the ten-week pro­ gramme, all the students who partiCIpated were awarded a certificate ft'om the Business Alive programme. Small Business has arrived at All Saints' College Snlall 13l1Sl11ess has replaced Business Iz.ecords Management as a subject for Year 10s as of Semester Il. This course comprises two sections: SmaU Business and Accounting for SmalJ Business. Small Business aims to provide exam­ ples of small business and to distinguish this ti-om agencies, bnll1ches and fran­ chises, ete. Students identify goods or services provided by smaJJ business; determine factors which lead t.o their success; prepare and understand a busi­ ness plan; study the factors which lead t.o fJilure III small business, marketing and the 11Ilportance of a marketing plan, and ownership, with it.s advantages and dIsadvantages; and discuss and nnpleme11l plans for t.heir own sma]] business. AccountJl1g for Small Business looks at. the benefits gained from recording financial informat.ion, the preparation of cheques and recelpt.s, etc., the prepa­ rat.ion of stat.ement.s from the G.lsh book and detertllll1lng the difference bet.ween profit. and loss st.at.ements for a service or tradll1g business which has both opelllng and closing stock. ThIS course IS enjoyed by t.he stu­

53

dent.s, who are developlllg many and varied Ideas about small business which wilJ hold them 11l good stead in t.he fut.ure. Work Shadowing-Year 11 For rhe first time t.his year, Year 11 students went on Work Shadowing for the week commencmg 1 July 1996. This replaced Work Experience at Year I1 level. Work Shadowing is a powerful way of learning about the world of work. Essentially, it. involves a st.udent. 'keeping in step' with a worker, observing the various tasks performed in his/her job and learning about his/her role. The worker t.hus acts as a 'work guide'. The relationship between the student. and t.he work guide is the key t.o Work Shadowing. In effect, students try t.o put themselves in the shoes of their work gUide and view the world of work t.hrough his/her eyes. Most st.udents this year used the opportunity for career t.asting: i.e. to explore a career area in which t.hey are already 1I1terested. From t.he many and varied excellent reports from employers, teachers and parellts, It. would appear th;lt they fully endorse the Work Experience and Work Shadowmg programmes. CongratulatIons to all Year 10 and 11 students who conduct.ed themselves in an exemplary manner whilst. part.aking in these programmes.

English staff have become excessively prone to leaving presents, in the form of resources, handouts and the OCGISIOnal Freddo, on each other's desks or 111 pigeon-holes.

Many students have partiCIpated in the department's services by making positive use of the various extracurric­ ular after-school classes offered by English teachers. Other activities that students experienced included the Year '12 excursion to the Curtlll University TEE Conference for English and Literature. Ms Dowling and myself (both from UWA) endeavoured, ini­ tially, to lead our literature students around an unfamiliar Curtin Uni cam­ pus. Fortunately for us, our lit. students have kind hearts! 1 remember seeing the faithful sweet smiles of May-Ann Phang, Susie Tweddle and Bec Edwards, which brought to mind that famous call to arms, 'lead on M.lcDuff'!!1 Somehow we got to the lecture theatres on time.

Dedication was of utmost impor­ tance. Some of the cast even spent one Tuesday afternoon with toxic fumes whilst painting the set. This dedication was however questioned when certain members of the cast (i.e. the males) were reluctant to wear stockings and make-up. There was also much heated debate as to who was going to play the role of Alfred, the travelling transvestite. With such eternal bickering our ded­ ication faltered: however the inspiring speech from Ms Derrington (accompa­ nied by much symbolic ripping of posters) soon had us back on track. Cursed with the 'Production 'flu' (thank you Adam Mitchell) and om unreliable 'antique' goblets, we nonetheless lived to tell the tale of Roscllcmllrz alld Clli/dcllsrcl'II are Dead, although It took them <l little longer to che on the final night as Adam and Bryce had a confrontation with a wild noose. Special thanks must go to our patient director, Ms Derrington, with many thanks also to Mrs White, Clare Derrington, Mr Stapleton and David Ashton for providing the magnificent stage and set. Thank you to everyone who helped with this year's Production, and good luck to the future performers of All Saints' Productions.

LOTE

This year has seen a change 111 our area, with Languages Other Than Enghsh no longer coming under the b,\nncr of English, Languaaes and COIllmUI1l­ cation. The number of students studymg a LOTE has been consIstently larae for some time now and the Col.lege's decision to f01'11I a LOTE Department is a welcome one. Mrs Dawn Clements was our Head of Department for several years, and we would like to thank her for all her hard work and leadership. It was not easy for her to run a combined lkpclrtIllent and all her etrorts were greatly apprecIated. 'Merci beau coup.' 'Grazle e nlllle.' 'Angatoo gozall1lasu.' We had some staff changes at the beginning of the year, "vith Mrs Anlle Becker taking maternity leave and Ms Kylie Kilcullen taking a year off to travel around Canada and Europe. Our two new teachers of Japanese, MISS Simone Johnson and Mr Royston Lance, have been a welcome addition to our team. As always, LOTE students have had the opportunity to particIpate 111 many var­ ied and often exciting activities, both III and out of school. Two Vear 11 French students, Emma Groves and Tamsll1 Ford, went to La Reunion for four weeks in July, and Deanne Chiu, also II1 Year 11, spent four weeks in France 111 September. Four Year 12 Italian stu­ dents-Monica Barratt, Jessica Cook, i\my Gates Jnd Natasha Roza-Butler­ went to Italy on exchanae for two months during the 1995 Christmas holidays. while June saw the 'lrnval of two Italian exchange students and two of the four hosts from the December/January programme. They spent two months here and were hosted

In August el ven girls from the Otsllma NJkano Girls' High School in Japan VISIted us for two weeks and were hosted by our students. As well as some students gaining cul­ tural and hnguistic experiences first hand 1Il the relevant countries, LOTE students ti'ul1l Years 9 to 12 have partic­ Ipated 10 the Alliance Fran<;:aise and Dante Ahghlen Examinations, and the AustralIan Language Certificates. This year also saw the introduction of Language Awareness Week as part of the Arts Festival. The idea behind this week IS to highlight the fact that we are a multlcultural nation and that a large portIon of the College is learning a for­ eIgn language. These students are learnll1g 111 detail what multiculturalism is all about, and they deserve recogni­ tion and congratulations for all their efforts. It is not an easy task to learn a second language. During Language Awareness Week the canteen had daily spenals such as French pastries, Italian gelatl, croissants, sushi and lasagne, which were enjoyed by many students and staff. We also had a huge splash of colour, with .ill the LOTE students III the College coming to school for a day in the colours of the national fJag of the language they study.

The photogmplls ollerleaf lell their stories. The day I had been waiting for finally came: the day that I could leave my family for two months and have the chance to experience the Italian lifestyle and culture. I must admit that I did have many different thoughts and feelings running through my head at the time, but I was the first one to 'run' through the gate at the airport and suc­ cessfully escape the tears. I suppose the main thought that was going through my head was that I was going to have fun and no one was going to stop me. After a very boring t1ight we touched down in Rome, where I was finally able to breathe the Italian air (or was that smog l ). While we were in Rome we didn't really do as the Romans do as we mainly spent time getting used to the Italian food (which didn't take too long). We walked on the cobblestone streets to see Saint Peter's Square: unfortunately we weren't able to see the Pope, much to everyone's disap­ pointment. I then travelled five hours on a train to arrive at Milan train station, where my host family were to meet me. This is when things sort of went wrong and I experienced something I had dreaded. When I arrived at Milan train station, other host brothers and sisters were screaming with joy at their exchange students, but fifteen minutes later I still couldn't find my family. I finally found them standing at a totally different plat­ form holdin a up a 'Welcome Gessica' sign. I strung together some Year 8 sen­ tences ;lnd knew th.is was It, no more English for two months. This was when I started to wonder what I had lee myself u1to. I lived in a small country town, Cermenate, which was situated in the province of Como in the north of Italy. My family for the next two months consisted of my two parents, 'mamma and babbo', my host sister Virginia, who lS eighteen years old. Susanna. who is SIxteen, my little brother Filippo, who is

six, and Nonna Enrica. My host family were perfect-they treated me as one of theIr own: even the pet dog Guendalina made me feel welcome--a little too much, as it slept on my bed day and night. I enrolled In Istituto Maglstrale Teresa Ciceri, which was a school for students interested in teaching. The days I went to school I mall1ly spent my time 'vvrit­ ing postcards, sleeping, gazing out the window to look at Lake Como and Its wonderful views and collecting the class money and orders for the break (whIch was a great relief to alL even though it only lasted ten lninutes) The days I didn't go to school (tor acceptable rea­ sons such as spending a day in Venice with other exchange students fi'om around the world), I stayed at home and helped my hosr mother in her book­ shop and learned about fllnnlng a business in Italy. Although I spent most of my tllne ,lr school, I still found rhe time [0 do the typicaJ tourist thin~ and more. For New Year I was in the snow skiing down the Swiss Alps, building snow­ men and skating on an open ice-flnk. 1 aJso spent my Christmas holidays in the regIon of Toscana, where after one month I finally saw the sun and the beach. During this time I went to Florence and Pisa. I also spent days going to Milan. rhe fashion centre of the world. That should explain how I spent my time (and the Visa bill). Two months seemed too long, but it wasn't enough. When the tram ticket for my rerurn to Rome arrIved, I dldn't want to leave. After many hours of being taught Italian by my host brother and partying WIth my fflends, it was tIme to leave. These were two months that I shall never forger.. I couldn't have expen­ enced this without the help of NIrs LUlsa MalO and Mrs Fulvla VaJvason: thank you I , If anyone has the chance to expeflence an exchange, apply, and don't Jet those first thoughts and feeJ­ mgs affect you.

On 29 March 1996, fourteen students fr0111 the Ye3r 11 class and one 'Prof'­ known to most as Mrs Malo-set otT on a fantastic five-week journey to Italy. During the ,1dventure we crarnmed in as ITluch cultural and hn­ guistic knowledge, fun and gelatl 3S possible. Our first taste of ttaJy began in artis­ tically famous Florence. The beautiful architecture and famous sights like David and the Pome Vecchio were not forgotten, even though we spent at least three hours in the cold and ram queu­ ing for the amazlllg Uffizi Gallery. Other memorable moments while in Florence included Rachel's little fall while the group ran from a dangerous situation in a dark alley, and the lovely 2 a.m. view from the hotel room where Susan, Tanya, Pam and Jaye were staying. On a rainy one-day trip to a small yet characteristic medieval town called Siena, the group noticed that each place we visited, although geographically close, was unique and diverse. Siena won't be forgotten-especially the famous smelly omelette that Katrina and Petina found m a bus! Anorher day trip consisted of belllg attacked by a scary old Italian lady with a walking stick while sittIng on the lawn outside the extraordill3ry Leanmg Tower of Pisa. Our second stop was Bologna and. even though we were nervous about staying with complete strangers and being separated for l1Ineteen days, It was surprisingly wonderful for most of us. We experienced an ItalIan Easter and marvelled at the amount of freedom the students are allowed at school, includmg the great vendmg machmes which were well used by us all. Our surprIse destination was a gor­ geous town on Lake MagglOre called Stresa, overlooking the Alps. We were all grateful for the two-day Side trip as Stresa was extremely beautiful and the four-star hotel was a luxury. One day was spent 1Il SWItzerland at a town called Locarno, where we spent up big on amhenric Swiss chocolate. There were sad goodbyes at the train station at Bologna, especially from Tanya, who IS now well known for her tears. On the train to Velllce, Georgia realised that something was missing: her new expensive InvlCta backpack, which held some important thlllgs like her air­ line ticket and all her traveller's cheques. Thanks to Prof everythlllg turned out tine.

In VenIce It ramed a lot, but It was still a faVOUrite for many. The canaJs, although stlllky, were calm1l1g and peaceful as well as beautiful, espeCIally while relaxlIlg dunng a memorable gondola nde. The final city we visited was Rome. It lived up to our expectations as it was a huge, busy and amazing city. We saw the Spanish Steps, the Vatican, the Colosseum and many other famous and historical sights. We aJJ enjoyed the ont' night that we were allowed the McDonalds' we missed so much. On our way to another side tnp to Capri, a wondelful island, we aJJ wore our backpacks on our fronts for fear of getting robbed on our way through Naples. We loved the Blue Grotto and enjoyed resting up for the huge shop­ ping sprees we were looking forward to in Rome in our last few days as a group. We ended up spending a lot of money, especially Tina. The journey home was really sad as we tried to enjoy our last days in Italy. We will never forget Sarah's huge Easter egg that she took everywhere, Pam's hair, which attracted Italian boys from everywhere, Dani's disco-fling, El1lma's obsession with a Venetlan boy, Susan's suggestion that we go to the Irish pub, and one person's fetish for stracciatella ice-cream and spaghetti carbonara! Congratulations to Mark for IllS tol­ erance of fourteen females and a huge 'Thank you' to Mrs MalO for making this possible and teachll1g us so much about Italy and ourselves.

REUNION ISLAND On Sunday 30 June 1996, sIxty-eIght students fi-om all over Western Australia, including the two of us from All Saints', arrived at Perth International Airport expecting shortly after to be leaving the terrible wet winter behind LIS and trav­ elling to the sunny, tropical paradise of Relll1l0n Island. At exactly the time we were supposed to leave, an announce­ ment was made over the IIltercom saYing tlnt our plane was to be delayed for fourteen hours due to unn'lmed 'technical ditucultles'. Fortunately, we were given the nnvs that we would be staying overnight at tlw four-star Orchard Hote! in Perth. We spent the ll1~hr watchmg the Ill-house movies alld trvmg to resIst the temptations of tl1l' tilll mil1l-bar. We left Perth the next day and spent the rest of the trip trying to piece together a conversatIon m French for the car triP home With our

host families. We left our new-found Australian friends at Saint Denis airport ,md headed off with our host families for lour weeks of adventure and fun. Rt-L1I1 101 I Island is situated 200 km from Mauritius (which is a forty­ minute tlight in a IJay small aeroplane with propellers) and 900 km east of the coast of Madagascar. It was formed over thousands of years by an erupting vol­ cano whIch is still active today (the last time It erupted was in 1987 and It IS due to erupt again soon). The island has approxImately 600,000 inhabitants, who arc a mixture of Creole (the Island's origlllal inhabitants) and Indian, Asian and European in'll1ligrants. The Island covers an area of 2,512 km' WIth a coastline equalling 207 km. The highest peak reaches 3,069 m. It is an intense island with many contrasting sights. These include the rock enclosed valleys of Cilaos, Mafate and Salazie, whIch are contrasted WIth the tropical Gllyavicr (a fi-mt) forests which stretch down to the sometimes black sand of the VOlc'1I1IC beaches. Many different animals live on the

Island, lllcludmg Its natIOnal emblem_ the Paille-en-queue, which is found only on Reunion Island. In the ocean there are many varieties of tropical, multicoloured fish which are a renowned sight for many experienced scuba-divers. Of course, not all the ani­ mals are as rewarding to see, especially if you are walking down a narrow street and look up to see spiders as big as your hand dangling above your head. The month passed quickly, filled up with continuous sightseeing and lazy days sun baking on the beaches-the only disappointment being that our late arrival caused us to miss the last day of the Rip Curl Surf Pro Competition at Saint Leu, so we therefore missed out on the long-awaited close-hand glimpse of Kelly Slater. But overall, our trip to Reunion Island was a great suc­ cess, the month being filled with new and different things to do each day. We both thoroughly recommend the trip to any French students who want to improve their conversation skills and have an experience they'll remember tor the rest of their lives.

JAPANESE HOMESTAY

From 2 to 16 August, All Saints' College hosted eleven Japanese students and their teacher from the Otsuma Nakano Girls' High School Hl Tokyo. After a shorl mtroduction ceremony, the gIrls were JJ1troduced to then host students and families, who they would be spendmg the next two weeks with. From then on the girls had a fantastic mSlght mto the Australian way of life. During their stay they visited such places as Kjngs Park, Fremantle, Cohunu Wildlife Park and Tumblegum Farm, which they really enjoyed. At All Saints' College, too, they tried some new subjects such as woodwork, craft and cooking, as well as taking part in many Japanese lessons. With host famJlies, the girls also had some uniquely Australian experiences. They tried AustralIan food-Vegemlte (which they absolutely hated'), meat pies, roasts, la mi no-to ns, pavlovas, Red Rooster, McDonalds', Pizza Hut...They also went to the football, saw AustralIan animals (kangaroos and koalas being their f.wourite) and found out just how different Australia and Japan are. The farevvelJ dll1ner, held at Sunny's shnnng on the Swan in Fremantle, was the laSt chance for photographs, auto­ graphs and plenty of crying (not to mention a last chance to pig outl).After the Japanese students left for the aIrport (not without a lot of crymg'), many host familtes followed them, with more photos and crying once there. It was an end to a ul1lque experience. r feel that both the Japanese stu­ dents and ourselves have gained an insight into one another's cultu res ti'om the past (\'10 weeks. We have learned just how different the Japan­ ese and Australian cu Itures really are. There are differ­ ences in the school systems, lifestyle and food. Over the past weeks there were some small prob­ lems-such as the language barrier­ but any difficulties were soon solved with a few giggles and charade-like

gestures. There were also a few nusun­ derstandings, such as 'wicked' really means great, and 'cool' doesn't mean cold, but fantastic. Havll1g the Japanese gIrls at All Sall1ts' has also made us look at the way we think. Everythll1g IS new and differ­ ent to them: they have a keen eye for notIcing something interesting and exciting whIch may seem boring and umnterestll1g to us, opening our eyes to look at things in a different way. For example my Japanese student, Minako, found a television advertisement that I had watched numerous times and thought qlllte boring, humorous. We also thll1k that the Japanese students have helped us to appreciate Australia for what It is: a huge and beautiful country that we should all be proud of. Over the past (\'10 weeks we have made new friends from a different country and had a new experience which we should not forget. I would like to thank the Japanese students and tllelr teacher for coming to Australia and sharing their culture with us, along With the host families. I'm sure every­ one has erlJoyed the experience of the bondll1g of twO cultures.

MATHEMATICS

It was another busy year In the Mathematics Department. Many students participated 111 a varied programme of activities. The Australian Mathematics Olympiad Committee organises numerous activities and competitions which are deSigned to identify and challenge talented students. From this programme, students participated in the Australian Mathematics Challenge, the Mathematics Enrichment Stage and the Australian Mathematics Competition. During Term 1 students in Years 8 and 10 attempted the Australian Mathetnatics Challenge. Many students produced excellent solutions to the problems. Outstanding results were obtained by Stuart Munro and Matthew S"rgeant {i-om Year 10, whose achievements placed them amongst the top five per cent of those students attempting the Challenge in Australia. Twenty students in Years 8 to 10 then attempted the more demanding Mathematics Enrichm.ent Stage during the SL"X months between March and August. Their efforts exposed them to some tough and c11<lllenging extensIOn work which enhanced their under­ standing of topics not studied by their peers until later years. On 30 July over 200 students partic­ ipated ltl the annual Australian Mathematics Competition. This competition has grown in recent years to be attempted by students from many countries throughout the Pacific region. This year over 500,000 students participated. As in previous years, students from the College achieved excellent results. The Mathematical Association of Western Australia also operated a signif­ icant programme of mathematics activities throughout the year, which again was thoroughly enjoyed by students from the College. During Term 1 two teams of six students, comprising two Year 8s, two Year 9s and two Year lOs, competed in the IBM Have Sum Fun Competition against thirty-six teams from other schools. Both teams were highly successful. finishing in first and third positions. Later in Term 3 four boys from Year lo--Stuart Munro, Matthew S"rgeant, Nicholas Ralph and Raymond Sheh­ represented the College at the Mathematics Games Camp. They repre­ sented the College with distinction by winning the competition, the first time this has been achieved by an All Saints' tcam.

Some interesting projects were produced by students in Year 8 for the Math-O-Quest. At the time of writing no results were available. The department's activities were not lmuted to students in 1996. The highly successful parent algebra nights for parents of Year 8s were again enthusi,ls­ tlcally received. This year the programme was extended to parents of Year 9 students. Due to popular demand It IS anticipated that both courses will be offered aga.lll next year.

The staff were agalll busy attendlllg professional development courses, most of which related to the eagerly awaited introduction of graphlllg calculators into the curriculum next year. Many also attended the annual State Confer­ ence in Bunbury during August, which was again highly valuable and profes­ sionally stimulating as well as a lot of fun. DIlIJia Hr/)'Ief Her/a

DEPARTMENTS MUSIC All Saints' is fortunate to have an amazingly varied selection of musical activities on offer. Participation in any such activity is always voluntary, and the ollege should be proud of the large number of fine young people who have been willing to give of their free time in order to contribute to its musical life. People who imagine that music is some kind of rel<Lxation activity are never themselves musicians. Rather, it is a way of life that allows exploration of many trains of thought and aesthetic experience. To find pleasure and delight in the making of music is always enriching, and the desire for even greater mastery of a musical instrument, although it can create some frustrating periods of time, finds due reward. At the end of 1995 Mrs Ruth Bailey was farewelled as Head of Music. She has nurtured the department with great skill, and the healthy state of music in the College is a tribute to her gifts. Taking her place is Mr John Beaverstock, who comes to All Saints' after nearly ten years as Master of the Chapel Music at Guildford Grammar School. The College is fortunate to be served by a skilled and enthusiastic group of instrumental teachers. At a recent ABC concert it was possible to count three of them in the ranks of the West Australian Symphony Orchestra. As usual there were new faces amongst our instru­ mental teachers at the start of the year, and we are mdeed fortunate that some of them were able to Jom the staff after other teachers found it necessary to resign in the first week of the College year. Ms Shelley Hogan has taken over the teaching of double bass, and Mr Lindsay Gould was able to step into the role both of Clarinet Tutor and Band Director at short notice. Suddenly finding ourselves in need of a 'cello tutor, we were delighted that Ms Catherme Srruth was able to rejoin the staff. We were even more delighted when she became Mrs CatherIne McAslan m June l We were also fortunate, once again at short notlce, to be able to engage the services of Ms Peta Gourlay, who is both a smger and teacher of great reputation. Sadly she became a casualty to ill health dUrIng the year, and we were grateful that Ms Victona Rhodes was able to fill the breach. We look forward to Ms Gourlay's return In 1997 after some time working 111 Europe. One of our most valuable and

popular mem.bers of staff is leaving us at the end of this year. We will miss Ms Jtllie-Ann Clarke terribly. Her bright and enthusiastic personality has rubbed off onto the character of the department as a whole, and we have been very grateful for her fine teaching. Success in performance is the result of opportunity to perform, and our students are fortunate that a number of such opportunities arise during the year.At the end of the very first week of the year was the Music Workshop, which gave aspiring members of ensembles a foretaste of things to come during the year. The parent support for the concert that concluded the afternoon's activities was a presage of things to come. A recital night in March had the Upper Theatre filled to more than capacity, while over 200 people attended the South Bank Concert in May. At this concert, College ensembles and soloists provided the second half of the afternoon's entertainment: the first half was presented by the Perth Undergraduate Choral Society (PUCS) under John Beaverstock's direction, singing a selection of South African music, spirituals, and choral jazz, blues and swing. As always September's College Concert was an outstanding success, with the fruit of extra time together at the New Norcia Music Camp being obvious. It is to the individual ensembles that we now turn. Jazz Ensemble The College Jazz Ensemble has prospered thiS year under the inspired direction of Mr Kevm Fennel', our saxophone tutor. In June the ensemble took part in the Jazz Australia Festival at the Mt Lawley Conservatonum, and part of the programme was a viSit to the College by Professor Tony Garcia, who teaches at Northwestern Umversity In Illinois. Professor Garcia was amazed in particular by the group's skill at impro­ vising. He said that although he had heard of four or five such groups in this age group In the Umted States, this was the first tune he had actually seen people of thiS age showmg the skill so confidently. Mr Fenner is to be congratulated on the high standards he has achieved m this ensemble. Performances during the year have been numerous: as well as Jazz Australia, there have been performances at Mindarie Keys and St George's Cathedral.

Orchestra It has been gratifYmg to see the consistently fine standards the College Orchestra has achieved under the direction of Mr John Ford. He has expanded the group's repertoire into some quite challenging areas of music, while keeping a balance with more popular classics. The Orchestra is fortunate to have a strong body of strings (although more violas would always be welcome, and the lack of a double bass is disappomting) and a fine brass section. AttentIOn to details of ensemble is a feature of Mr Ford's leadership, and with valuable support from Ms Clarke, he has done splendidly to forge a fine team. String Ensemble The balance between serious work and having fun IS always under challenge when Ms Clarke IS 111 the vicinity. After the String Orchestra's amazing feats of swapping bows at the 1995 College Concert, what could there possibly be left to do? The sensitive and car1l1g way m which orchestra members assisted each other in playmg others' mstruments was the answer. The group will also be remem­ bered, however, for its fine performances of more regular items from the repertOire at occasions during the year. Choir The College ChOir began the year with great promIse under Ms Gourlay's direction. Unfortunately her illness intervened, and a time of some uncer­ tainty and Instability followed, although the Choir was able during this time to make a most appreciated contributIOn to a College Family Service. Stability was regained in Term 3 with the deciSion that Mr Beaverstock would direct the group, and some fine perfor­ mances of most enjoyable music during the second half of the year were the result. Choral work IS one aspect of musIC in the College that needs a real boost, and It is hoped that this will be accom­ plished by the establishment next year of a separate Year 8/9 choir. Smglng IS an Important part of every instrumental musician's mUSical knowledge, but it is also a way for non-instrumentalists to participate in mLlSlcal ensembles. We do hope that greater opportunities are available and taken up by more and more people 111 the years to come.


DEPARTMENTS

Swing Band ThIS is a new feature of musIc III the ollege, and results o'om an initiative by Mr Mark Under­ wood, our trumpet tu tor. I t is intended to complement the Jazz Ensemble, with the emphasis being less on improvisation and more on the perfor­ mance of written-out music.The nthusiastic response to th is initiative is ex iting, and we look forward to reporting further developments next year. Band After a slow start because of the ome taken to ond a I irector following thL' unexpected departure of the 1995 Director, the Band has made fine progress under the directIon of Mr Lindsay Gould, ably assisted by Mr Jayson McBride. The one thll1g that tends to hold back progress is the absence of a percussion player, and Mr Gould has been grateful for Christopher Gray's wllhngness to step Il1to the breach when performances are m the offing. A pleasing aspect has been the number ofYear 8s who have Joined the group. [n past years there has been a Training Band, which has slowly folded as its players leave to Join the main band. The experiment ofputtingYear 8s alongside senior players, who can then gIVe encouragement and advice, has been successful.

DEPARTMENTS SCIENCE 1996 is the first year m wlJJch we have been able to offer a full range of upper­ school courses for both tertiary and non-tertiary entrance. Students at All Saints' College can now select a wide variety of courses which will provide interest and motivation as weLl as aLlow access to TAFE and t rtiary institutions. Senior Science, offered in Years 11 and 12, completes our suite of courses. In June all students fi¡om Years 5 to 10, including selected Year 11 students, sat for the Australian Schools Science Competition. This competition consists of a rigorous fifty-minute multiple choice examination which is designed for each year-group level. It tests students' reasoning, comprehension, analysis and interpretation of science concepts. All Saints' Co]Jege students can be proud of their fine overaLl perform;1nce, which resulted in nine high distinctions (top \ % in the State),

seventy-five distinctions (next 10% in the State) and 125 credits (next 20% in the State). Collectively, 41 % of the ASC students who sat this examination achleved better than 70% of the students 111 the State who did the test. ThIS most creditable achievement was topped off by the following students achieving high distinctions: Alexis Davies, Blake Klyen, Jasmin Leong, R.ohan Mahendran, Richard Maynier and Raymond Sheh. Apart from the normal curnculum, many students gain diverse experiences III science through one or more of the following activities: Science Olympiad, Double Helix Club, Environment Group, Tree Planting, Science Talent Search and Science Summer Schools. In the latter actiVIty we continue to have students selected at State and Natiolul levels. As ,1 fIrst this year, Daniel Abbott has

been selected to attend the GenesIs Science and Technological Summer School in New Zealand. Rodney Limerick and Laura Birt have been selected to represent W< stern Australia at the National Engineering Sl1Inmer School in Sydney. New and exciting courses WIl! bl' offered to students at ASC in 1996-7. These are Marine Science III Year 10 options and Space Science 111 Year 10 core sCIence. Even WIthin the normal curnculum, students have enjoyed a wide range of aCtiVItieS, varying from rat dlssectlon to b1111dll1g solar houses, but the future holds even more exciting ne\-v experiences for students in scienc as multimedia technology and the Internet give students access to the world-wIde science community. The future is here now l !!

TREE PLANTING

Once agalll thls year, students have been Illvolved m growing trees to plant for Arbor Day. At the end of last year a group of Year 9 and 10 students prepared pots and planted a variery of native seeds 1I1 order to grow trees for planting around Bull Creek.As the trees grew in their pots, students assisted with weeding, thInl1lng and transplanting of trees to larger containers. On Arbor Day the students from the tree planting group helped students from Years 5, 9 and 1() to plant the trees around Bull Creek. With the assistance of Melville Ciry Council workers we planted about 500 trees and were able to supply MelvilJe City With about another 300 to plant in the local area. Testing by the environmental group has shown a SIgnificant increase in I1ltrate and phosphate levels in Bull Creek over the last three years. Hopefully these trees wd] help to reduce nitrate and phosphate levels 111 the years to come. Allnll Klliglll

SCIENCE OLYMPIAD In a year when the medIa focus was wel] and truly on our Olympic athletes, It IS all too easy to forget that many other fields of endeavour also reflect the Olympic spitll of attaining excellence through competing wlth the best in the world. The InternatIOnal S ience Olympiad competition allows students to strive to reach these very high standards in the sciences of physics. chemistry and biology. All Saints' Colleae encourages students to extend themselves in these disciplInes by providing Saturday morning classes. The classes are essentially an extension of the normal curriculum, meaning that some of the concepts covered in the sessions with Year 11 students are not normally encountered by students until first year university. Olympiad classes are open to all students in Years 9 to 11, but it is maInly Year 11s who sit the qualifying examI足 nations for the Australian Olympiad team in October of each year. TIllS allows for a programme which has a higher emphasis on fun and interest in Years 9 and 10. Whilst the programme is intended to extend the most able of science students, other highly motivated science students have benefited greatly from coming along each Saturday morning to join a motivated group of their peers in the fantastic spirit of challenge and attainment present in these small classes. Even though most Year 11 students did not do biology, many chose to come along to biology classes this year as they saw the classes as an opportunity to learn aspects of a subject that they could not fit into their weekly timetable. Some of the interesting and challenaing activities the students were involved in this year included growing plants hydroponically, designing their own virtual planets using computer silllulations, studYl11g the body's metab足 olislll under cxercise and analysing a household cleaner to discover its composition. In addition students were again encouraaed to prcparc their own lIlultll'lledla presentations. Thls student足 centred task was very successful and allowed students to use computer presentation software to teach each other science concepts using VIdeos, pictures and sounds. Much of the success of thIS StJlllU足 bting and popular prograoune must go to the very able staff, in the form of Mr Keith Dale and Mrs Pauline Pollard, who teach the chemIstry and bIOlogy

components of the programme. As hIghly qualified teachers with a wea.lth of classroom e.\:perience, they bring to the sessions an enthusiasm and a very ObVIOUS concern for the students which m;lkes them popular with .IlI who attend. There IS no doubt that thIS programme IS of great benefit to students of the College in ways that go well bevond measures of academic attalllmcnr. Many of thjs year's Year 1 '1 group h,we consistently attended these classes for the last three years and have formed strong bonds with each other ;1l1d statf III an environment based on purSUIt of scientific knowledge and understanding. This appears to me to be a great formula for attaining the sort of success 111 the scientific and engineering fields that our politicians and captains of Industry dream of.

Term 3 proved to be creatively challenging, intellectually stimulating yet enormously rewarding for six Year 10 students who rose to the challenge of competing in an Australia-wide competition. This was promoted by Environmental Systems Research Institute. Students were required to implement computer software supplied by Geographic Information Systems in order to research the environmental impact of the development of tourism on Rottnest Island. Years 11 and 12 Students in the social studies subjects offered in Years 11 and 12 have been

equally challenged and productIVely busy. For example, Economics students have enjoyed 'lIld learned much from their actlve roles 111 the ongoing stock market game. Also, their participation in relevant seminars offered by the Economics Association of WA proved very rewarding. History students who visited the Holocaust Centre HI Semester II added a further dimension to their studies. Ex ursions to Alcoa and the Perth CBD gave Year 1 1 and 12 Geography students numerous oppor­ tunities to put theory into practice.

DEPARTMENTS PHYSICAL EDUCATION AND SPORT It is always a pleasure to be able to con1.ment on physical education and sport. I believe 1996 will perhaps be remembered as the year of many firsts. At the end of 1995 the College took the bold step of withdrawing fi'om the Associated and Catholic Colleges after­ school Years 8/9/10 programme and decided to initiate an inter-house after­ school competition in a variety of sports. With much support fi'om the Physical Education Department, heads of House, House captains, teaching staff and students, and with Mr Whipp as coordinator, this competition cOITUllenced in Term 1. A feature of this initiative was that it catered for large numbers of students and provided numerous leadership opportunities for senior students. To be on the College oval on any Thursday afternoon in Semester I and see it covered with students engaged in friendly compe­ tition was testimony to the competition's success. Another first in 1996 was the success of one of the newer houses, Durack, in winning the Inter-house Swimming Carnival and Cross-country events, although I must say the level of enthu­ siasm and ability amongst all the Houses is now very even. For approximately six months the Performing Arts Centre was a hive of activity, with 100 performers and backstage crew working tirelessly the Rock Eisteddfod towards production. The level of friendshIp, tealnwork, mltlatlve and COlTUTUtment shown by students in thIs activity IS always outstand1l1g. To top off all the work, this year our performance was selected for the finals night, another first. As usual our performance at a vast variety of Inter-school sport1l1g events (a look through this section of Columba gives an accurate lI1dlcatlOn) was excellent. All SalIltS' College students have certamly developed a reputation for fine performance and excellent student demeanour when representing the College at Inter-school level. In the curriculum area the advent of Health Management to complement Health Education 111 Year 8 and the increase in Health Education topics for Year 10 students has been pleasing, and credit must go to Miss Bozlch, Mrs Greville and Miss Rlchens for their work 111 this area.

1996 was an outstanding year for athletics. The All Saints' team achieved second place for the combined boys' and girls' aggregate at the ACe's Annual Inter-school Athletics 'A' Division Carnival held at Perry Lakes on Monday 23 September. This is the best result All Saints' has ever had, proving that the dedication shown by students, staff, coaches and parents throughout the season certainly paid off. Training began at the end ofJuly and continued for the following two months. There was a huge turn-out of enthusiastic students ready to put in 100% every session. The team trained up to four times a week, including morning and lunchtimes. This was a great effort from every team member, and they all deserve to be congratulated on their commitment. During the season, the team had many OPPOrtullltles to prove its strength. Follow1l1g the Inter-house Carnival, from which the core of the team was chosen, were the Year 8 Carnival at Pen rhos and the Quadrangular Carmval held here at All Saints'. In each event the team dId All Saints' proud. The results were an indication of how the team would place at the ACC Carnival. Even though there were many outstanding competitors, the College's second place was a team effort. It was great to see the team members supporting and encour­ aging each other during their events. The results achIeved by the Athletics Team would not have been possible without the help of many people. On behalf of the 1996 Athletics Team, I would like to thank all of the staff, students, former students and coaches for their encouragement and theIr dedication to the team. A speCIal mention must be made to Miss Melanie Bozich, whose leadershIp and organi­ sation of the team was very much appreciated. On behalf of the team, I thank her for the support and encour­ agement she gave throughout the season. 1996 was only the second year in which All Saints' has been in the 'A' Division Carnival. Second place is a fantastic result, and on behalf of the team captains I WIsh al.l the best to the 1997 Athletics Team. I hope that you do just as well and give Corpus Christi some tough competition!

DEPARTMENTS ASSOCIATED AND CATHOLIC COLLEGES' COMPETITION SWIM REPORT

This year's Swim Team w;)S highly su cessful due to its early commitment to training, which started in tht' holidays. This was then followed by ten vigorous school wecks of training four times a week. Ninety swimmers turned up to the first training session and this was followed by an average turnout of seventy enthusiastic swimmers with the incentive of a place in the AC Inter­ school team. Some swimmers were selected to represent the school at the State Relay Championships, where inspirational performances took place. The first outing was Swim Day, which was a reward to those who had attended trainin' at least three times a we k. It commenced with an invaluable three-hour coaching clinic at the Superdrome led by ex-Olympian tan Drown, who managed to keep us off the nightly news this time around. After the session it was otT to Floreat Forum to feed the famished team. Cortesloe beach was our next destination, where the team got a well deserved rest and took part in the usual scenarios of attempting to drown the teachers.

Om first chance to Pit our talents against opposition was at the Quadrangular Swim Meet. We started the evening with a group dinner and cheerleading practice, led by Liz Eaton's powerflll voice. We arrived at Canning Pool motivated and ready to obliterate the other schools. All Saints' did excep­ tionally well and also managed to fill spare lanes. Two days later a meet was held with Corpus Christi College, our local rivals. It consisted of relay events, where the field seemed evenly spread. Andrea McCracken and Nicholas Bryant took the Swimmer of the Meet awards. This was the last event to finalise the ACC Inter-school Swim Team. The day of the lmer-school Carnival quickly dawned on us, yet we were prepared for the day's events. ur cheer squad opened the proceedings with the new boisterous Haka (a traditional Maori warrior song and dance), which elided team spirit. Every member of the team swam their hardest, for it was what we'd been working for. As usual individuals shone, ,md a mention must go to the Open

Boys' Division One Relay team, who blitzed the field and brought home an impressive time. At the end of the day we artle a notable third, ani su cumbing to other sizeable schools. The awards barbecue, which was held the same evening, brought an end to a great season.While the parencs mingled, the swimmers kicked back and were put throuah many replays of the Open Boys' Relay swim. The presentations started after the food, where many thanks were made. The College was later notified tlut four All Saints' students had been selected to be part of the A R.epresentative Team: congratulations to Tim R.oberts, Demelza Evans, Brendon Dunlop and Stuart Munro. Mr Whipp and his coaching team have once again propelled the team into a position where we are serious contenders for top position. A final thank you to everyone associated with the 1996 Swim Team.

ACC SWIMMING COMPETITION: A YEAR 8 PERSPECTIVE

Beatty Park Aquatic Centre... a place where All Saints' College has achievt'd great thl11gs and challenged many other schools in SWlfl1l111l10' competitions. Some of the schools challenged at the 1996 ACC Swimming Carnival included Mercedes College, Newman College, Christian Brothers College Fremantle, St Brigid's College alld Santa Maria College, to name a few. As the schools arrived at Beatty Park, you could tell that a feeling of excitement and team spirit was in the air and flowing through the crowds III the form of cheers. The cheering gave a competitive edge to tht' entire carnival as schools loudly encouraged their teams to victory III every race. As the Swim Team splashed towards the finish line, the roar of All Saints' cheering g'lVl' Its IlKmbl'l's added motivation.

TIllS year was a year for themes, with Sacred Heart wearing boxer shorts, Mercedes wearing capes, Mazenod wearing Mexican hats and aood old ASC wearing grass skirts and doing the Haka. The gun was fired. The day began. Competitive fever engulfed all those who cheered for their schooL This year's Swim Team was ex eptionally poweri'lll, with a new batch of vigo rOllS Year 8s, experienced Year )2s with a competitive gleam in their eyes and many, 1I1.1tIy more people who really showed the others that ASC has the all­ tune besl Swim Team with the best physicd and mental abilities.

the overall winner 111 the gll'ls' swII11.mlllg and Newll1an College enjoyed victory in the boys' swimming. For the students of All Saints' the day at Beatty Park was both challenging and exhausting. The competing students gave their level best on the day. The support team of cheering students provided additional motivation to those who competed all behalf of ASC. The splashing stopped. The cheers died down. The students of All Saints' headed home, bringing the ACC Swimming Competition to a close for another year. For the Year l2s it would be the last swimming carnival they would enjoy. For the Year 8s, a new tradition, a new challenge in the years ahead at All Saints'. en/llerOIl iV/oft:

1996 was a great year for cross-country. It was a whole-team effort made by everyone, not only by our oLltstandll1g runners. Training began in April and contin­ ued until the Inter-school Carnival at Perry Lakes in June. There was a good turnout of up to ninety people every morning despite the cold and wet weather (it dropped to 2°C on the oval!). The dedication shown by the team during training certainly paid off on the day. Overall, in the combined school aggregate,All Saints' finished fourth out of forty-five schools. In their categories, the boys finished second and the girls finished eighth. This was an outstanding effort from all the team members and

they deserve to be congratulated on their commitment. Runners who performed well on the day mcluded Brad Avery, Jason Avery, Kiera Chorley, Tray Dyson, Felicity Fletcher, Travis Harris, Matt Jones, Amy McQuade, Julian O'Donnell, Trent Passm.ore, Michael Senini and Charles So·eet. A few of these students were rewarded for their efforts and selected for the ACC Representative Team and the State trials. It was great to see the team members supporting each other by cheering loudly during the races. We could not have done this without the help of the teachers who gave up theIr early mornings to train us and supported us on the day. Thanks go to

84

the staff, Miss l~chens, Mr Whipp, Miss Bozich, Mr Dundas, Mr McMahon, Miss Yeo and Mr Schirinzi. We also thank the parents who gave up their mornings to make us breakfast. A spe­ cial mention must be made to Mr Collins: his know'ledge and organisation of the team was very much appreciated. On behalf of the 1996 Cross-country Team we thank him for his encourage­ ment throughout the season. Hopefully, 1997 will be even more successful. Good luck to the team and the captains.

CRICKET YEAR 9110

CRICKET

The Year 9/10 ACC Cricket Team was a huge success this year, proving to be the best team in the whole competi­ tion. This year's team brought back one of the best cricket results AJJ Saints' College has had for some time. The College team won all its three matches. Some of the teams gave us strong competition and there were some close finishes. We always seemed able to hit the winning run, or capture the winning wicket, or make the win­ ning catch. Our team showed great teamwork in aJ.l aspects of the game. Whether some­ one was batting or it was our turn to field, the team gave plenty of support and encouragement to each bowler, batsman and fielder. AJJ Saints' was strong in all parts of the game. We had excellent batsmen putting the runs on the board. Wickets fell one after the other as our bowlers did what was nec­ essary. Let us not forget the great field­ ing from each player, stopping the extra run or two and taklllg the necessary

catch.

On behalf of the Year 9/10 Cncket Team, I would like to thank CBC Fremantle and Helena and Lumen Chrisn Colleges for their competition. I would like to thank all the players for their effort and comlTlitment: each player contributed to making us the winning team. I would also like to thank Mr Davies and Mr Brown for coaching our team and making us the leading team at the end of the competition.

BOYS'

FOOTBALL

When the new ACC Football season starred, twenty-four boys from Years 9 and 10 were placed under the guidance of coaches Mr Whipp, Mr Davies and Brendon Dunlop. Andrew Thomas was appointed Captain and Oliver Beath Vice Captain. Everyone came down to the oval on the first training night with high hopes of doing really well for the season. Everything was going well in the play­ ers' minds, but we were shot back into reality in our first game with an absolute thrashing handed out by CBC Fremantle, who beat us by a margin of about eighteen goals. After a couple of byes and more training, we were prepared to take on Seton College. All I can say IS that tl11S was a game for the ASC boys. We won by about sixteen goals. Our next two games were against Mazenod and Corpus Christi. For these two games we were pushed to our limit, and unfortunately we were convmc1l1gly beaten by both teams. After these two setbacks, Mr Davies had us go through a gruelling trainmg session before the game against Lumen Christi-and it worked! We had a great win and were confident going into the last game against Seton. We travelled to Seton and beat them at their home ground to give us a fifty per cent record with three wins and as many losses. I would like to thank Mr Davles, Brendon, my team-mates and every­ body involved wah the team for a great season.

YEAR 11/12 BOYS' FOOTBALL In 1996, All Sa1l1ts' College fielded its best football team to date, even though a few minor adjustments were needed to transform some players from basket­ bailers and rugby players to footballers. The players and coach showed commit­ ment by giving up their own time to attend training sessions during their lunch breaks. Our first game starred well, except for one player who had his AC joint broken by another member of the team in the first thirty seconds of the game. Despite this ASC defeated St Norbert College in fine fashion, which an ASC football team hasn't done for about three years. The team's first real challenge came when we played Corpus Christi College, who were very competitive and always provided a good battle. The game became very physical towards the end and both teams started to fire up. Even the ASC goal umpire (not known for his running ability) sprinted the full length of the field to help out his mates. Once both teams settled, the game con­ tinued. The final siren sounded and everyone thought we had been beaten until Mr Whlpp revealed that we had

87

won by a poinc after the lecture about the 'on-field brawl'. So on that day we had won tvvo battles in the same game. The next game was against Lumen Christi, who had a reasonable side. Despite our gallant comeback in the second half, ASC was defeated for the only time during the season. With one game left, ASC was equal first with Mazenod College, who we were yet to play. All we had to do was win the game to fimsh first and make a into the inter-zone final, which ASC had only ever done once before (losing the final). With this 111 mind we pre­ pared for a hard game, bu t on arrival found that Mazenod only had fifteen players. So we finished on top of the table and went into the finals. To the disappointment of the players and coach, no school was willIng to play us in the final due to QUit Cup commit­ ments, and so All Saints' made history by winning its first ACC Football Final. Thanks go to Mr Whlpp for success­ fully coaching the team and to all the players who played during the season.

YEAR 11/12 SOCCER The year began with an unexpected win over St Norbert with the help of Simon Jonas' seven-goal haul. Other highlights of the season included another big win over John Wolloston (when Trent Moreschini accidentally eliminated their star player after five minutes), the fighting 1-6 loss to Seton with only ten men on the pitch, the consistency of 'The Brogden' in goal (has he refined his jumping technique?) and the encouraging play of first-timers like Peter Borserini in defence. The sea­ son had a bittersweet end, with ASC winning the final game against closest rival Mazenod College by forfeit. At the end of the season, ASC finished mid­ table with three wins and three losses, the most successful record of a senior team as long as most can remember. Good luck to future generations who will, one day, strive to break this record! (Not too soon I hope.) Finally, thanks go to a highly committed Bob Simpson, who probably improved his personal fitness as the season pro­ gressed.

YEAR 11/12 TOUCH FOOTBALL Once again this year, All Saints' fielded both a Boys' and a Girls' Touch Team in the ACC competition. The Boys' Team was made up of a strong mix of Year 11 and 12 boys who were to be undefeat­ ed throughout the season until losing, by the narrowest of margins (one touchdown), to John WoIlaston, who won the ACC competition and went on to win the Western Australian School Sports Association (WAS SA) competition. The team spirit was evident right from the start, with the Year 12s leading the way and setting the standard for next year's team, and it didn't take long for the Year lIs to catch on and keep up the excellent standard for which All Saints' is renowned. The boys are to be congratulated for their commitment, and for achieving overall second place in the ACC competition. In keeping with the tradition of pre­ vious years, All Saints' fielded another very strong Girls' Touch Team in the and 12 ACC Touch Year 11 Competition. The team remained undefeated throughout the season and won the competition. The success of the Girls' Team led to bigger and better things when they entered the WASSA competition. Now in a much more competitive tournament, the gIrlS had to bring out their best. That they did, clearly out-classing the competition by winning the Grand Final against Como Senior High 6-0.

DEPARTMENTS TENNIS YEAR 11/12 GIRLS' TENNIS In the sweltering February heat, twenty-five girls tried out for what became a strong eleven-member team. Although pitted against strong teams from Mercedes and Corpus Christi, we managed to have very close matches, going down by only two or three games overall. However our team domi­ nated the weaker teams from Seton and Lumen Christi, using its strength and endurance to over­ come the heat in order to smash the opposition off the court. Many people used indi­ vidual £lair in order to win games, like Melanie Koch and Felicity Fletcher, who created a new world of tennis fasmon and con­ versation, regularly talking to oppo­ nents about people everyone seemed to know, or Elizabeth Eaton, who (unfor­ tunately for her) placed her body on the line to rescue a fast-paced smash and was left with a rather nasty bruise for her efforts. Team members won't forget the conversations held between members of the All Saints' team playing at opposite ends of the courts, such as those between the Captain and her Year 12 colleagues. Although we only played four games we had a lot of fun, even if we were unable to run through the sprinklers after playing Lumen Chnsti. My thanks must go to the team, and specifically to Narelle McAulliffe and Bree Goff. Thanks must also go to our coaches, Mrs Ramsey (who left on maternity leave) and Ms CrugnaJe, tor putting up with us during the season.

Even though trus wasn't All Saints' most successful year, all the players put 111 the effort and had 'a good go'. Everyone was enthusiastic and eager to play, no matter how good the opposi­ tion was. But most of all, everyone had a lot of fun and thus enjoyed them­ selves, not only concentrating on the serious side of their game. Adam Mitchell and Simon Jonas must be recognised for their high level of profi­ Ciency. Well done everyone!!

DEPARTMENTS OUTDOOR EDUCATION CAMP As the group of Year '10 Outdoor Ed. students, accompanied by Miss Bozich and Mr Dundas, departed from the car park with their faithful e) bus, little did they know of the adventures and clul­ lenges that awaited them over the course of the next three days. The bus left at approxilTlately two o'clock and by three we had already encountered our first adventure. No one could figure out what that terrible smell was, and the plan was to stop at the nearest service station. Then one of the back tyres literally exploded! All guitars ceased playing and all talking abruptly turned into gasps of surprise as we pulled off the road. Ever one vacated the bus and sat alongside the road as our chaperones calmlv worked out our next move. Soon we all reboarded the bus and were on our way to the nearest service sta­ tion. We travelled in first gear the entire way and the horrendous noise that ac ompanied the problem sent the sheep and cows in the pastures nearby running for their lives.

YEAR 8 FOREST EDGE CAMP Sunday 31 March was a nerve-racking, nail-biting, emotional sort of day. Mter a few hours in the bus we finally got to the campsite at Forest Edge. As we relieved the cramps in our legs, we slowly staggered down to the hall with our heavy luggage. We then had our lunch, which consisted of soup, bread and drinks. Unfortunately leaving home didn't mean we escaped the dreadful kitchen duties, but that's life! After lunch the groups found their dorms and some were preparing for the overnight camp. It was our group's turn to go on the overnight camp first. We slowly trekked our way through the incentive course and finally got to the campsite, led by Mrs Angel and Mr Williams (experienced Guide and Scout leaders). After pitching the tents we cooked our dinner over camp fires and were then bussed back to the main dorm for bootscooting. Other groups made damper, listened to the stories and studied the stars when they stayed on the overnight camp. The overnight camp was refreshing and peaceful after the noise of the main dorm. We staggered out of our tents at 7 a.m. the next morning and started our activities: canoeing and rafting. Throughout the week each group participated in a variety of activities, such as horseriding, abseiling, the flying fox, the pamper pole (the most daring), rifle shooting, screen printing, a confi­ dence course and a trek in the bush. Many students developed new skills and met challenges as they participated in these activities. Each group became

Get me out of here! more aware of the needs of others and of the need for support and encour­ agement. Each night before bed we did a different activity, such as bootscooting, a qUIz night and a video night. Last of all was the dISCO rught, which was run by the Year 12s. This was a great success and It was a hard job to get us to bed as we were still excited. In the morning it was a mad rush to tidy up our donns. We all saId goodbye to the kitchen staff and the owner of Forest Edge and boarded the bus. To our surprise the bus tnp seemed shorter and less exciting as we were all very tired. We had survived an enjoyable and exhausting camp. Thank you to all the staff who were IIlvolved in running our 1996 Year 8 Camp.

YEAR 9 NANGA BUSH

CAMP

It was a cold Sunday morning. Parents and children were huddled together in front of the Chapel and in the car park. Dogs were running frantically every­ where, and the feeling of excitement was loose in the air. Colourful, dull, large and small bags carrying clothes were piled on the pavement, waiting for the buses to arrive. Whispered conversa­ tions were taking place until the buses arrived, and then there was a mad rush to scramble on to one of the two. That was it, freedom was here! \Ve were on our way to Year 9 amp'! After about one and a half hours of travelling we reached our destination: Nanga Bush Camp. The buses \-vent different ways, one to the cabin named Timbarra and the other to the cabin named Woodshed. Bags were offioaded and students rall through the cabins, checking them out and deciding where they would be sleeping until the trip home. Squeals of delight soon came when people discovered the fireman's pole. There were long queues to attempt this challenge, and the stairs were almost forgotten-until we had to go up to our dorms!! A few tried to go up the pole, but not many succeeded. We were then all cal.led together to decide what activities we would partic­ ipate in. It was announced that my group would be attempting abseiling and rock-climbing. Sunscreen, hats. water-bottles and other equipment came out of the bags, and then we were ofF. The abseiling tower was only a small distance away. The abseiling and the climbing were great fun and everyone gave lots of encouragement to their less confident col.leagues. One half of our form group tried climbing while the other half tried abseiling. People ran around the tower all the time, shouting encouragement to their peers. Lunchtime came, and we were in for a surprise. Our chef, 'Troy', loved listening to heavy metal music while he was cooking' The kitchen helpers were moulded into regular chets in no time. I even think that the teachers soon started to like Troy's choice of music, and the kitchen helpers produced dinner. The food was lovely (at every meal), and after we had finished we had group actIvities. Each night was different. The activ­ Ities consisted of a disco, bootscooting,

movie and a campfire (the other night was spent at the overnight camp). The activities that were held during the day were abseiling and climbing, rafting, the confidence course, archery, a short luke, canoeing, and then a long hike that rook us to our overnight campsite. All these activities were great fun and very adventurous. Even the hikes became adventurous because Mr Dundas managed to get lIS lost-although to this day he insists it was an April Fool's joke! NI the days had difrerent activities, but one thing stayed the same: the constant support and encouragement fi·om fellow students. It didn't matter what activity we were attempting, it was one thing that was always with us. Thursday was time for packing up, and we all said goodbye to the campsite. While travelling home the buses were filled with many varied conversations, all teUing different stories, but all of them with the same message: that everyone enjoyed camp. Thank you to everyone who made this such a terrific Year 9 Camp. J

YEAR 10/11 ADVANCED

ROCK-CLIMBING AND

ABSEILING CAMP

The Advanced Rock-climbing and Abseiling Camp provided a challenge and an enjoyable experience for everyone involved. We set off for AJbany bright and early on Saturday morning. Our camp group was made up of a vast range of personalities who had the challenge of trusting each other through difbcult climbs and a three­ hundred-metre abseil. Our capable instructors-Mr Brewin, Mrs Tyrrell and Terry Hewett, from Adventure Out-spent the ftrst few days checking our harnesses, knots and new techniques for any errors. Being pleased with our progress, we were allowed to et ofr ro our own climbing areas vvith minimal super­ vision. This in itself is a very strong trust-building exercise and responsi­ bility. We had no problems, other than one member slipping at the top of an abseil and leaving us with a view of his 'No Fear' shoes-a sight for everyone, inclucling the on.looking tourists, who found our skills to be better photo opportunities than the beautiful scenery of the Natural Bridge and the Gap. This fascination also put Taryn ]ones in the position of trying to do one of the more tricky moves at the top of a climb while tourists asked her to wave at the camera (her response has been edited).

The grade of climbs varied from easy to very challenging. Most of the group progressed to the upper scale with nothing putting them off. Individuals performed at a high level, but the most significant factor in our achievements was the support and encouragement that was in abundance at times of extreme difficulty. We all took turns in cooking for a day, the results ranging from toast to a three-course meal including spaghetti carbonara (Taryn's speciaJty). We had our doubts about making it down Bluff Knoll on the ftnal day. The challenge turned out to be walking up the Bluff. Our group worked well as a team. This was shown with our smooth success in completing the six-pitch abseil down.We were all pleased to have made it, despite having a minor hiccup at 5 a.m. when our bus wou.ldn't start. There were no complaints, except for one episode when Bayan and Rob tried singing in the showers (a distressing experience for the entire caravan park). Overall the camp was very successful, and a big thank you needs to be extended to everyone involved for making it so worthwhile.

I CAN do it!

CAMPS YEAR 10/11 ADVENTURE OUT CAMP After a tiring four-hour bus trip which started at around 10 a.m. on Friday, the three groups arrived at the Big Valley situated about eight campsite, kilometres from Margaret R..iver. We were enthusiastic and excited about the activities which we were about to undertake. We immediately met our instructors, set up our tents and got right into our first activities, which ranged fr0111 orienteering to abseiling. After this we dug into sausages and salad and either roamed the campsite or sat in the kitchen to play a game of cards. On the first night many of us lost a lot of sleep talking into the early hours of Saturday morning, and the next day we realised what a stupid idea it had been. Breakfast consisted of toast, cerea I and milk. Each morning we all packed our lunches-normally meat and salad, rolls and fruit-and got ready for the challenging activities that lay ahead. The highlights of our trip were caving, abseiling, orienteering, rock足 climbing and canoeing, which all left us temporarily drained. There were four main abseiling exercises. The one whICh we all probably found most enjoyable was the Bride's Cave abseil. During the day we had the opportunity to do a trust fall, where you fall until the instructor brakes you. A few uncharac足 teristic screams arose from thiS experience. The caving was pretty grubby and also cured quite a few people's cases of claustrophobia in the process. Our second caving expedinon was held at night and was rumoured to be much more fun than the first. The overnight camp was probably the most strenuous of all the activities. It started

Will we ever see daylight again?

On Friday 29 March seventeen adven足 turous students and two intrepid teachers boarded a luxury Westrail bus for a journey into the unknown, as our Sailing Camp in Albany was in its first year. We were the guinea-pigs for this new Year 10 and 11 Camp. After a G足 rated in-bus movie and a fast-food stop for a deep-fried take-away dinner, we arrived safely in downtown Albany at about 11 p.m. We transferred to a smaller but still comfortable coaster bus that would be our bnd transport for the week. Although the advertising slogan blazoned on the rear window was very obvious and bright, it luckily didn't cause any accidents! We got to our campsite and our beds about midnight and slept peacefully until Mr Thomson decided it was time to begin our first full day of camp. The arena for our adventure was the Princess Royal Harbour and our base was the Princess Royal Sailing Club. Our instructor for the week, Jack Baxter, was a very experienced sailor and teacher with a wealth of knowledge about Albany and anything to do with sailing. On the first morning Jack guided us through the complexities of rigging the general purpose fourteen-foot-Iong sail boats that would be our transport on water for the week. At first the sails, sheets, knots and shackles seemed confusing, but with teamwork and practice we quickly became experts and rigged our boats in record time, eager to put our skills to the test out on the water each day. Luckily the weather was warm, but most of us \-vere not too keen to do the necessary capsize drill on the first

CAMPS YEAR 10/11 BEGINNERS' SURFING CAMP

Michelle McKim, Aliesha Flottman and Melissa Rainey: all hands on deck! Jfternoon. Even with wetsuits, the water WJS chilly-although the local seal that visited the area each day didn't seem to mind the cool temperatures. During our four days on the water we progressed from nervous novices to daring America's Cup-style yachties vying for honours in our three-race regattJ on the final day of camp. There were capsizes, close shaves w.ith the jetty and the danger of the mud bank to contend with. but the excitement level was high and near record times were set. Although we had one 'person overboard' incident, everyone completed the regatta, and the winners were rewarded with chocolate frogs at our final night dinner. A highlight of the week was half a day spent on Jack's thirty-five-foot ocean racing yacht, Sidewalk Cafe. We transferred our new sailing skills from our little boats to the bigger craft under the watchful eye ofJack and his partner and sailed out into the wider waters of King George Sound. Another highlight was the huge quantity of junk food we consumed bJck at the campsite before and after our meals, which were carefully prepared by our own hands. We all took to the water so well that when it came to a few hours of hiking on dry land, on our day off the boats, some people were reluctant to complete the task. We also visited Whaleworld, the Gap and the Natural Bridge. By the time we left Albany on Thursday morning, everyone felt a s nse of achievement and had earned theirTLl certificates. Our thanks to Mr Thomson and Ms Kelly for making it an enjoyable camp.

We thought the weekly College Activities Periods had prepared us for the Surfing Camp, but nothing could prepare us for the challenges that lay ahead. A blown trailer tyre just outside Busselton was our first exciting event. This, however, did not deflate the enthusiasm of the potential professional surfers as we arrived at our campsite in Dunsborough, our retreat for the next five days. The morning began at six thirty, with a few people choosing to rise earlier (Kiera and Whippy). After rushed cornflakes and toast we piled into the bus and headed out to meet our Instructors. Lindsay, Mick (Stomper) and Adam befriended us immediately and before the week was out we became 'old mates'. The boys took us to our first beach, showing us the breaks, the swells and the hazards before letting us get wet. From then on we spent maximum time in the SUlf, learning as much as we could from the experienced surfers. Dunng the week we surfed at many different beaches, including Windmills, SmIths Beach, Margaret River Mouth, Contos and Super Tubes. By the end of the first day some of us were standing up, and by Tuesday we were all surfing the unbroken waves. As \veU as surfing we spent time Visiting the Wet Dreams factory in Margaret RIver, Lindsay's surf shop (Beach LIfe) and on the odd occasion the Dunsborough Bakery. Entertain­

ment during the night was prOVIded by certain members of the group (namely Grape), and by games of Mega Twister, Guesstures, Spotlight and the 'Talent' Night. The swell dropped off towards the end of the week, but that did not dampen our spirits as we prepared physicaBy and mentally for the compe­ tition on the last day. Bright and early on Thursday morning we headed out to the river mouth for the 'Super Swells Beach Life Margaret River Pro Masters Competition'. Great judging by 'Adam the Radical' and 'the Combo Meal' (Whippy and Macca) saw the final results as follows: Girls: first Meghan Grant, second Claire Andrewartha, third Kiera Chorley, Kelly Tyrrell and Felicity Fletcher. Boys: first Roland Walmsley, second Alex Larson, third Matthew Sargeant. Thanks go to Mrs Machar for all of her help, to Wade for the photographs and encouragement, and to Mr Whipp and Miss Richens for the best camp ever!

HORSERIDING CAMP

It was 8.40 a.m. on Sunday mornJllg and we were missing just one person. Too bad: we were off anyway. We'd been going for about ten seconds when there she was, running after the bus with all her luggage. After we picked her up we set off again. This time we didn't stop until we had reached our destination-Springfield Riding School. No sooner had we jumped off the bus than we were jumping onto our horses for our first lesson or a bush ride. This was the basis of our next week. Two hours of riding in the morning and two hours in the afternoon. Any spare time we had was taken up with reading Dolly magazines or playing a five-day-Iong ping-pong contest. After dinner the first night we went for a walk. There was a fluorescent glow-in-the-dark frisbee circulating the group and everyone got a bit of frisbee­ throwing practice. When we'd walked for a while... we turned around and walked back again. They must have thought the walkll1g would tire us all out. They were wrong. All the dorms stayed up for a long time after that. However we all made sure we stayed in our donus after the cmiew, otherwise there was a chance of being confronted by a strange creature wearing nothing but pink shorts. By day it goes by the name of Stan Balding. The follovving day we suffered our first injury. During an arena lesson, Dea's horse decided to throw her into a barrel. The resulting gash on her leg made it impossible for Dea to ride for the rest of the week. Other activities on camp included a camp-out.

ABSEILING

AND HIKING

CAMP

Camp began with a sensational bus ride which took only minutes to reach Kalbarri. AM radio IS really cool...really... we're not lying. Kalbarri is a really, really, really cool place-full of rocks, dead animals and wild pigs. The camp mainly involved hiking, rock-climbing and abseiling. In fact we spent one whole day abseiling and rock-climbing on one of Kalbarri's gorges (which only Rebecca and Taryn successfully completed-better luck next time guys!). Our camp days were spent hiking kilometres and swimming until we reached our destination, where we slept on rocks. Sounds uncomfortable? You are correct. You would have to say that Terran and Emma were the camp jokers. You guys were sooo funny, really. 'I really, really, really love you but I just... can't... smile.' Come on guys! The night-time activities were just as enjoyable as the days; really... no... really, massaging was great. Oh, and the nvo­ minute noodles proved to be a fave. Pity we didn't bring any chopsticks. Camp was going incredibly well until the Year 10 boys decided to break the eleventh commandment-'Thou shalt not abduct Gumby, even if it is April Fool's Day'. Surprisingly, the Year 10s and lls got on reaUy well together. In fact we think the Year 10s may have even looked up to us Year 11 s as heroes and gods. I know you guys probably won't think so now, but in years to come you will thank us for our big talk on the birds and bees. The main purpose of this camp was to hike up to Kalbarri's Nature's Window, which looked like a doughnut-but heyl Who am I to judge? My brother looks like Homer Simpson. The last day was really cool. We went to the beach at Red Bluff where the Year 10 boys tried to challenge us to a sand-throwing fight: naturally the fernales dominated them. We would like to thank Melrose Place, Express, Rebecca, Taryn, oh yeah and Deb, Rachel, the Homes, Mr Knight and of course Rebecca and Taryn.You guys were really, really great.

CAMP

When the students boarded the bus destll1ed for Malibu Diving, Rockingham, everyone was anxious and excited about the forthcoming week of new and fascinating experi­ ences under the sea. Though the many long hours of theory were tedious, we aU knew it would be worth it in the end. For the first three days aJl our practical study was done at an indoor pool. We learned basic as mask skills such clearing; regulator recovery; removing and replacing fins, mask, buoyancy compensator and weight belts; and last but not least buddy breathing. We also learned how to overcome the 'spastic fi·og' syndrome. It was great fun, but it was nothlllg compared to the adventures we would soon undergo in the ocean. We entered the ocean for our next five dives. Each tIme, we entered a breath­ taking foreign domimon full of many beautiful fish, coral, seaweed and other strange and friendly creatures. Some of the students were greeted by a playful sea hon who decided he wanted to Jom m the fun too. So he put on a show that undoubtedly became the highlight of the dive, a Into remarkable moment for everyone. Another popular dIVe site we viSited ,vas that of a sunken wreck. On this d.ive not only were there hundreds of amazing fish that we were able to hand feed, but thete were sea horses, too. Though some people may still have their doubts, it is safe to say that all seahorses were left

SEA TREK CAMP

Everyone arrived at the boat shed at 9 a.m. on 30 March 1996 for a weekend of preparation for the upcoming Sea Trek, which offi -ially began after a kick-start barbecue on Sunday night. Preparation included recapping skills wc learnr at the introductory course. a sail on the river and learning to use radios. The highlight of the weekend was the shopping expedition, when we were required (in our crews) to buy food to last us the whole week. We packed our boats on Sunday night and were to keep an all-night watch over them so none of our things were stolen. Early Monday morning we left the calmncss of the river behind and ventured out into the ocean, heading for Garden Island. After a two-hour sail and a scary encounter with a tugboat, we all arrived safely. Once there we swam and ne and prepared our boats for sleeping (wc had to be off the island and safely installed in our boats by sunset) . Everyone was in bed early as there is not much to do out on a boat in the dark. The next mornino- we woke early after an uncomfortable night and set sail for Becha Point. Many of us were not lookino- forward to the long sail. When we arrived all we saw was beach, and I wondered whether we were at the right place. No toilets, no showers, but sure enough we were. The day was speIll sleeping, walkmg, swnnmwg and eating. At nio-ht wc had a campfire. The teachers went to sleep early and left us to stay up on night patrol. Next destination: Penguin Island, Point Peron.

Row, row, row your boat

We left early for Penguin Island and stopped there for a few hours. Wc had tUlle to look at the penguins and a sea lion before heading to Point Peron. As there was no wind, we had to conserve our fuel for the last day and were forced to row two kilometres to shore. We tlnaIJy made it with our arms still intact. Everyone was happy to reach Point Peron as we had not had the luxury of toilets and showers for three days. We were tired and did not look forward to the night wat h. Even so, most of us stayed up until about 11 p.m. chatting to Mr Chandler. arolina and ]essica were on patrol ÂŁi'om I 1 p.m. to I a.nl. so they stayed on the beach while everyone else went to bed up on the grass oval. At about 12 p.m. it started to rain, so Carolina and ]essica ran up to the tents to ask Mr Chandler if they had to continue wJtching in the rain. As they

approached Ralphie's tent he emerged wrapped in a towel. The look of astonishmcnt could still be seen on Mr Chandler's f:1ce the following day, but can you imagine the nightmares Carolina and ]essica experi­ enced afterwards' Later wc di, 'overed that Mr Chandler was about to dart out and grab his shorts, which were getting wet. Later on that night Mr Chandler Sl1uck out of his tent (fully clothed) and went down to the beach to see if the night patrollers were awake.They were asleep, so he stole an outboard motor, took it up to his tent and slept with it to prove they were asleep. The next day Kate, Renae and Sarah thought they were busted, but Mr Chandler informed them of his .. joke. Thursday finally arrived and everyone was excited and relieved to be <Toing home. After an enjoyable sail home we unloaded, pa ked our bags and had a final briefing session. On behalf of the Sea Trek Camp wc would like to thank Miss Bozich. Mr Chandler and Arvy for a wicked camp. We learned so much about ourselves and sailino-, it was a worthwhile expenence.

YEAR 10/11 SHANNON RIVER

CAMP

We were all stacked into th little school bus half asleep and loaded with walkmans, lollies and magazines. The bus trip seemed to last forever: half of us didn't even know where Shannon River was, let alone care, and we just wanted to sleep. Little did we know that we were all destined for a physically and mentally straining camp, but with the emphasis placed on fun. Eventually we arrived, expecting to be outside our campsite, which we weren't. A fifteen-lninute hike later we were at last outside the bed quarters for the staff and the kitchen. We all sat down on the logs around the camp fire and introductions and instructions were administered. Next tents 'were erected, teams were constructed and Clancy explained the long procedure to keep the toilet smelling acceptable ' We weren't too fond of the ordeal every tin1.e we wanted a shower, so we all went without for a week. For the guys it just came naturally! We all wanted to have our own horses and were a little disappointed not to have them on the first day (little did we know we would not have them until day three). The lesson on riding was somewhat comical: a boring lecture was made fun and we all tried to remember what Clancy and Anme explained that night. 'The Icy Pole Theory' was a COIl1.mon theme during the rest of the camp. It explained the challenges in life that 'vve have to face.

This was likened to eating an icy pole: 'There is nothing surer in life than death. Just as when you buy an icy pole there is nothing surer than the fact that it is eventually going to melt. So during the course of life we must lick our icy poles, sometimes taking a big bite. That is what you have to do on this camp. However, you have to watch that your icy pole doesn't slide off, and remember not to eat the stick!'. Various flip charts and teamwork games were well carried out and we completed much preparation for the days ahead of us, when we were to take to the saddle. Despite the few hiccups we had to £1ce during camp, we all learnt by them and did not make the same mistake twice. We all constantly boasted about our horses' power, speed and ability to expel methane-Mr Schirinzi's horse was superb at this­ however cooperation was the vital ingredient. A great deal of courage and teamwork was needed on our camp to reach the ultimate goal-'The Three Icy Poles'. (These were landmarks and not meant to be eaten!) The Shannon River Horseback Adventure left us with a feeling of extreme achievement, knowing the meaning of fun, physically and mentally. .. and being totally drained. Thank you to all our leaders for a great camp. Gall/erOIl Deaglle

MILLS CAMP

Tarzan and Janes

Day one of our camp began with a long, three-hour bus ride for our group of fifteen Year 10 and 11 students. On our arrival at the cottages we were introduced to Grant, our leader from Adventure Out, and after a brief intro­ duction to the activities we would all be participating in, we drove to Wellington Dam to eat lunch. Finally we walked along the river to Potters Gorge and met the bus which took us back to camp. Then followed the unpacking: bunks were claimed and tea preparations began (chicken and vegetable soup and pizzas!). On the second day, after breakfast, two students went with Mrs Johns to buy some fresh fruit from a nearby orchard while the others did a short navigation activity on how to get to Honeymoon Pool. The first part of the walk was the hardest because of a rough climb up a forty-five degree hill. When we eventually reached the top we had a long break before beginning the easier stretch of our walk downhill. After reaching our second stop at the lookout, Grant and Mr Hayter decided that the fastest way home was to take the direct route-straight down. The 'injured' were bussed back to Honeymoon Pool. The games Grant arranged involved us working as a group and included 'rope-swing', 'spider's web' and 'plank walker'. The day ended with a barbecue.


CAMPS

The next day it was breakfast, a bit of free time and a meeting with Grant about our orienteering activity. The orienteering was more challenging than we thought. Using navigational skills each group covered a two-kilometre circuit to find a number of stations. After lunch we lost two camp members to illness. After a while everyone took down a blow-up airbed, a plastic sheet, a piece of tarpaulin to be used as a hurchie, a cylinder containing methylated spirits and a 'dinner set'. During this time Mrs Kirke and her husband paid us a visit. Later on we found a place to set up our hutchies around the creek, blew up our airbeds and collected firewood for later that evening. Another enjoyable activity was a trip to Donnybrook, where the bus was refuelled, we could walk around and shop for half an hour and where Raymond could meet us at the wrong place. When we got back, spaghetti bolog­ naise and garlic bread were prepared for dinner. After tea we played spotlight, took our things down to the campsite and sat around the campfire. Two packets of marshmallows and many jokes later, it was time to sleep under the stars. Day four began with hilarious stones about visiting kangaroos in the night. (Ask Amanda Etherington for more details.) After break£1st we were driven to Wellington Dam for our short ten­ kilometre walk. During our lunch break a few daring people went for a swim 111 the cold water.

Back to nature

Back at camp a barbecue and the evening activity were organised. After tea we were split into two groups and left two kilometres from camp with only torches to guide us. Not surpris­ Il1gly, we made it back in record time. Spotlight was played before retiring to

bed. On our t1naJ mon1.ing the raft was

YEAR 10/11 WHITEWATER KAYAKING CAMP

The Year 10/11 Whitewater Kayaking Camp started off with an unforgettable display by I~yan 'Chuckie' WaIter of the wonderful variety of substances to be found in his digestive system. This proved to be an interesting start to what was an excellent camp. After arrivine, ar the campsite at Honeymoon Pool and meeting one of our wonderfully sarcastic instructors (Simon), we met the other (Adrian), who c mpared to Simoll was a normal, caring and sharing sort of guy (Miss Bozich's brother). After setting up camp we selected our equipmenr. which included a ranO'e of sexy helmers. deadly spravdecks, very srylish life-jackets, kayaks and our paddles. With our equipmenr in tow we headed for the water. Congratulations must go ro Stuart Munro, who was the first person to fall out of a kayak (although technically he didn't even make ir imo rhe kayak to begin with). After some drills to improve our paddling technique we approached our tlrsr set of rapids and received a rasre of things to come. The nexr day at a.ll1. we learned rhe rrue meaning of

torture-shd1l1g down our first set of turbulent rapids without our kayaks on our tender little botties in \ hat felt like sub-z ro temperatures. Following that we ventured do\.vn two sets of rapids over :lI1d over, practising our te hnique. After lugging our 500 pound kayaks back and forth over treacherous terrain just below Wellington Dam, we felt that at last we could call ourselves kayakers, and the far of falling out had been removed. How wrong we were! The next day we returned to the bottom of the dalll and kayaked all the way back to camp. During this time we manoeuvred our W~l through rapids any way possible­ sideways, backwards, upside down and occasionall the right way up. If we thouO'ht these rapids were difficult, we were in for a major shock the next day when we were confronted with heart-stoppinO' waterfalls and rockslides. On the fourth day we redid the waterfalls and kept on going down the river until we reached the canals. Here, for the first time in the week, we didn't have to do any work, simply floating with the current to our destination. Miraculously, we made it through the camp without any major injuries. That was until Steve tried to prove he was immortal by running through fire. As you can guess his theory was wrong, and he ended up with a badly sprained ankle. Finally the last day of camp arrived and we sadly had to pack up the campsite and load the bus. There was stiLI enough time for one last kayak for all the guys who couldn't get enough, and then it was time to head back to Perth. The camp was a great success thanks to Mr Staplcton (the camp coordinator), Mr Collins (his little helper), Mrs Drown and Simon and Adrian. All of us loved the challenge and rated this camp the best we had ever been on.

YEAR 12 RETREATS 1,11 AND III

Bec jumps the electric fence!

Fire hydrants, mud fights, sore ankles and rats. Just a few of the words we returned home with to describe what happened on this year's retreats. As the sun rose on what was to be the first day of retreat, some of us were busily starting to pack, some were already packed and waiting at school, while others were attached to the phone. Like those on previous retreats we had no idea what to expect, but we were eagerly looking forward to missing out on the last day of school. Some Year 12s had a vague idea what to expect fi'om listening to those on the first retreat when all eventually rolled up at school. As we prepared ourselves to succumb to the mercy of the teachers we couldn't wait to reach our campsite and make many new friend­ ships. A mixture of activities, such as whacking one another with foam bats, racing ea h other to chairs and find.ing someone else with the same hair colouring or brand of toothpaste, proved to be a great beginning to the next couple of days. By participating m activities throughout retreat-some more challenging t!un others-self-confi­ dence was built, new friendships formed, and the chance to find out how much trust we had in one another was expressed. Being continually split lIlto

different groups for the activities ;1Iso enhanced the teamwork skilJs we had already acquired as at some stage we were all able to work with everyone on our retreat. The writing of warm fuzzies to each other was a great boost. and the envelopes we prepared to pictorially represent our feelings and hold our fuzzies managed to make Michelangelo paintings look dull and boring. Our nights on retreat were spent meditating, bootscooting and, for some adventurous souls on Retreat I, running the commando course 1Il pitch blackness. Our final night on retreat saw a formal dinner, after which each retreat tried to break the record of the retreat before on how late in the morning the teachers sent us to bed!! (Not that we slept.) We must thank Father Terry and all his helpers for their hard work and efforts, and for making retreat so much fun. Although the retreats were not as phYSIcally challenging as most camps, they were the most worthwhile as they bonded the 1996 Year 12s together.

THE ARTS BROUGHT TO YOU BY The Arts at All Saints' ColJege have always been a significant component within our broad-based curriculum. As a focus for the many Arts-related events organised by the various departments in the College, the Arts Foundation decided this year to coordinate these separate events into our first 'Festival of the Arts'. This inaugural celebration of the Arts, which took place from Monday 5 August to Thursday 22 August, involved a variety of performances and presenta­ tions. A major focal point was Glyn Parry, who was invited to the ColJege as our 1996 Writer-in-Residence. Glyn is a successfully published writer. His effervescent personality was a popular drawcard with all the students who came into contact with him. His inter­ active presentations provided a source of inspiration to the students' own writing and especially to those who entered the Annual Creative Writing Competition, another activity sponsored by the Arts Foundation. An exhibition of ceramics, featuring the work of six locally based artists, was also on display in the College Gallery throughout the Festival. The work was extremely well received by all who came to view the exhibition--students, parents and members of the wider

commumty alike. The work was clearly an inspiration to those students who are currently studying art, and the influence of this exhibition could be seen in the work that was subsequently produced. Several of the artists-especially Stewart Scambler, who demonstrated the ancient process ofRaku firing using students' own work as part of the demonstration-worked directly with students. Some fascinating results emerged from Stewart's exciting method of applying glaze onto pots. In addition to this input, Graham Hay demonstrated his innovative craft using paper clay as a construction medium during the Junior School Arts Day. He Joined several other people demon­ strating a variety of crafts, including wood-turning, pottery, painting on glass, stuffed toys, topiary and callig­ raphy. This enterprising range of activities proved to be very popular with Junior School students. Other significant events included the Dance Festival, which celebrated the strong emphasis on dance and movement at the College. Coming as it did soon after the successful Rock Eisteddfod performance, this concert was extremely well received. Theatre Sports was another new

venture as a College activity. This popular form of improvised theatre provided some hilarious entertainment. The organising group, the Australian Institute of Theatre Sports, offered professional support and training for the participating students who, in turn, demonstrated a high level of pelfor­ mance skills in improvisation. This Inter-house event is a must for next year. On a more serious note, a piano recital by Gil Sullivan from. Adelaide Conservatorium and, on a separate evening, a Music Recital by our own Year 11 and 12 students, were extremely well received by the small audiences which attended. Language Awareness Week, which also took place during the Festival, provided colour and lots of delicious international food. Many other events, such as the Literature Lectures and the Barking Gecko Theatre Company, added their own spice to this thoroughly enjoyable Festival-an event which we are confident will be repeated agall1 through popular demand.

THE ARTS 1996 ROCK EISTEDDFOD As the countdown for this year's Rock Eisteddfod was coming to a climax, the cast, crew and helpers came together as one team to perform the dance of a lifetime. After countless years of not rea hing the finals, the drought was broken when we exploded on stage, impressing everyone (especially ourselves!). The Entertainment Centre was brought to life through the 'power of imagination'. Fierce competition, pumpmg adrenalin and the roaring crowd helped All Saints' College rise to a new level of perfection on both our heat night and the Rock Eisteddfod final! The choreographic team, consisting of Kate Loveday (Mickey Mouse), Zoe Brand (legless doll), Suzanne Newby (candlestick), Danielle Sellwood (corporal soldier) and Nina Leo (lead doll), was ecstatic and very proud of everyone's performance. Another perfected performance was that of the backstage crew, who despite many difficulties acted both thoroughly and professionally. The team was led by Nicole Barcon, who inevitably won Best Backstage Manager. This year's Rock Eisteddfod could not have reached such an incredible level without the never-ending help and support of various parents, friends, teachers and ex-students. In particular we must mention Jantie Albanis and the very supportive and patient Miss Richens.Thanks guys: we couldn't have made it without you!

ALL SAINTS' COLLEGE DANCE

CONCERT

For the students, by the students-the Dance Festival

As part of this year's Festival of the Arts, the first All Saints' College Dance Concert was held on Tuesday 6 August. The concert was organised and run by the Year '\1112 Dance class. It was a very successful evening as the level of talent was exceptional. Performers ranged

from Years 8 to 12, with a special appearance from the Junior School Dance Group. Thanks go to all who participated and performed. Zoc Bralld alld Kale LOlleda)'

THEATRE SPORTS The Theatre Sports evening can be described as a sports carnival for the athletically challenged members of the College l On Friday 16 August, ten House teams (one from O'Connor, one from Forrest and two from the others) participated in a fantastic carnival of laughter and fun. Theatre Sports involves a lot of improvisation, spontaneity, extrovert natures and audience participation. It can be said that the spectators had just as much fun as the competitors. Minties and peanuts were thrown, the judges were enthusi­ astically booed, AshleighRose was thrown 111 the Sin Bin, much enjoyment was had! The eventual winners were the Great White Rubber Chickens from Durack, comprising Andrew Barnett, Ryan Brogden, Bryce Ridgeway and Bayan Meshgin, who stole the show WIth their graceful ballet of the

110

Christmas tree. Other highlights included Adam Mitchell and Annabelle Du Guesclins' interpretation of 711e Pha1l{011l (~f Ihe Opera, and Emily Moore's terrific lecture. Thanks must go to Michael and Al1gela from Theatre Sports. Hopefully, evenings such as this will become a regular occurrence.

GLYN PARRY When students at All Saints' College think of this year's Writer-in­ Residence, we are instantly reminded of an eccentric, hUlTlOrous and inspira­ tional person known as Glyn Parry. During Glyn's two-week stay at the College he spent much of his time speaking with both Junior and Senior School students on a variety of topics. The subjects ranged from new approaches to develop and improve your writing to what it's like being an author. He also conducted a Writer's Workshop one Saturday afternoon for all interested students and parents, and Glyn's humour made the afternoon very entertaining and enjoyable, as well as informative, for all who attended. Finally, on his last day, Glyn presented the awards to the lucky winners of this year's Creative Writing Competition during a Thursday Assembly. Glyn sincerely encouraged everyone he met to extend their talems in order to achieve their full potential. The passionate love he has for his writing has been seen as an inspiration to many of the College's budding young writers. Glyn Parry's happy, vvarm-hearted disposition enchanted all whom he encountered. I'm sure that everyone benefited in one way or another fi'om his stay at the College, and that his unique personality will be fondly remembered by all.

LANGUAGE AWARENESS WEEK In the week starting 12 August, Language Awareness Week took place. This week was set up by the All Saints' College Language Department in order to raise the awareness of the College community of the languages studied in the College. To open the week some Year 12s dressed up in the traditional outfits of the languages studied at the College and offered hors d'oeuvres to the guests. This took place as part of the opening for the Festival of the Arts. Throughout the week a speciaJ menu was offered by the canteen. This menu consisted of a special item being sold each day. On Monday French pastries were ofl:ered, on Tuesday gelati,

112

Wednesday hot ham and cheese crois­ sants, Thursday sushi (but without the raw fish!) and on Friday lasagne. All of the items sold were hugely successful and extremely tasty! On Thursday 15 August a free dress day was offered to all language students. Students had to wear the colours of the flag of the country whose language they studied. We were surrounded by red, white, green and blue, and this showed the large number of people who study languages at the College. Overall the week was successful, and was greatly enjoyed by all students.

MOCK TRIAL

Ordinarily, the staff of All Saints' College would not be expected to con­ done a student having to go into the Central Law Courts to take the witness stand on a charge of stealing or assault. So... Qlteslion: What do you think they do when a dozen students have to do this on a regular basis? AnsltJcr: Encourage it. Welcome to the world of Mock Trials-a world where budding Perry Masons and Horace Rumpoles get to strut their stuff as barristers, solicitors, witnesses and assistants to the court, all of this presided over by a qualified lawyer or magistrate. Armed with only a basic knowledge of the relevant laws and two witness statements, each team has a few short weeks to build up its case and then, in one fast-paced night, go head to head with another school to argue for a verdict in its favour. Under the watchful eye of a lawyer­ coach, who helped hone our legal skills, and the well-intentioned but often hin­ dering advice of the assisting teachers, we felt ready to take on our first case in the courts. Two teams were entered tlllS

PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB

Photography Club IS held every Wednesday between 3.30 and 5 p.m. Its objective is to enjoy the creative art of image making, and this has been accomplished by all of the students who have attended with enthUSIasm throughout the whole year. Some students used the time to 'catch up' or extend the parameters of the day course they were studying. Others ven­ tured into a series of experiments, often stimulated by articles found in texts and current periodicals such as Australian Photography, a n1.onthly magazine sub­ scribed to by the College Library for the use of the photography students. We would like to thank the library staff for this support, and for the many small kindnesses they have extended to the 'photographers' of the College throughout the year. A great deal of satlsfactIon and confi­ dence was gained by those studenrs whose work was on display at the College Exhibition, the Canning Agricultural Show Competition and in our own studio gallery, which we invite those of you who are interested to VIew at any time.

After a four-and-a-half-hour flight, we 3rrived in Melbourne around 5 a.m. When we climbed onto the coach we kllew the fUll was just beginning and thc jetlag had just kicked in. Aftcr abom three hours we arrived ill a small toWIl which happened to be the homc town of a skiing legend known 3round ASC as Whippy. After a deli足 cious brcakfast at the famous local bak足 ery, we once again boarded the bus m high spirits and headed for the snow. Travel sickness from winding roads was worth it once we pulled into the snow just outside Falls Creek. The next day the fun really began. At 8.30 a.m we hobbled down to the Halley's chalrlift, carrying our skIS, to get up to the snowfields where our lessons began. Ski lessons? The concept became more appealing by the ITImute as the various Austrian, Swiss and Swedish accents of the instructors were heard. ThIS made us more than keen to be at our lessons on tllnc evuy day. After our first lessons many of us h~ld mastered the skill of skiing (or h:llf of it)

and all of us had mastered falling. The lifts were another story, as we all found out. The next few days of skiing proved to be the highlight of the trip. Skiing abil足 ities ranged from Mr Whipp, to Mr Machar's well-timed collision with a female instructor, to Mr Heuchan. whose special talent was skiing right to the lift line, clearing it, then being back on top of the mountain before people back in the line were up 011 their feet. Over the next few d3ys everyone improved so much that we were skiing intermediate or even advanced runs and Jump tr3cks. After an exhausting day's sklll1g we could be found relaxing our achin cr muscles in the pool, spa and saUIla of our lodge. Quiz nights, discos, pool and card g3mes were organised after our three-course meal each night. After 10.30 yet more activities and outings were organised for the more senior members of our group.This was felt and evident the following mornings. By [he end of the week, we were

116

sorry to be leavll1g so soon. Photos were taken, souvenirs bought, and all too soon we found ourselves6 on the bus again, winding our way back to Melbourne. One final day of mad shopping sprees at the Vi toria markets and through Melbourne's best shopping centres, with a trip to the movies to relax our exhausted feet, saw the end of the 1996 ski trip. We were soon on the plane headed for Perth. For a fun-filled week of exciternent, f:1Ce plants, friendship, wipeouts and snow, the ski trip is definitely a must. A huge amount of thanks must go to Mr Whipp, who once again organised such a successful trIp for us all. A memorable time that wd! never be for足 gotten was shared by everyone. Also thanks to Mr (MoLly) Collins and Mr Dundas for the fantastic time, and to Mrs Green, who was everyone's mum for the week.

Starting a new school1s a nerve-racking expenence. Everyone worrIes about having no fnends and gettll1g lost around the school, but luckIly Peer upport was avai!.lble for the new Year 8s. The aim of Peer Support IS to help Year 8s make fnends and seuk 111 well. To help this bappen, leaders were cho足 sen at the end of Term 4 last year. A m~lJ0rJry of Year IOs participated III three days of tramll1g, learning and playing games, sharing and leadership skills. After this seven leaders per house were chosen to continue With anocher two days of leadership trallllng and learning new skills. Each group conS15ted of seven, eight or nine students. Throughout Term l we met weekly to play name games, trust games and other fun activities. The

Year 8s also had a chance to learn more about the school system, subjects and teachers, which helped them to feel more confident about themselves. As Peer Support was a new experi足 ence for both leaders and Year 8s every足 one felt 11ervous that things would go wrong, but all the leaders were good role models and were easy to approach With any problem. At the end ofTerm 1 Peer Support was over and at the last session leaders and students had a small parry, which was enjoyed by all. On behalf of all the other Peer Support leaders we would like thank Mrs Greville, Mrs Home, Mrs Bronwasser and the other teachers who helped with the training as well as the Year 8s for their cooperation. All in all, everyone gained a greater assurance in themselves fi'om the pro足

YEAR 8/9 YOUTH GROUP

The first major change to the' operatlon of the College Youth Group in 1996 was its e'xpansion to include the Year 9 age group (last year's members). As a consequence, our numbers have swelled considerably to the level where we can realistically expect up to fifty membets to attend each week and have achieved an average of forty-two. The main events continue to be table tennis, bad­ ncinton and basketball, all played to the accompaniment of contemporary music. This year we have again arranged some additional activities to help give our meetings some extra va.lue. These commenced with the Self Defence Course-three weeks of learning how and where to kick and punch and a.lso how to escape from the clutches of somebody stronger than you. All mem­ bers had a new respect for the tae­ kwon-do experts after they had been subjected to a few push-ups for'insub­ ordination' , In addition, we have had special evenings "vhen, being unable to use the PA entre, we have taken the opportu­ nity to improvise with other venues. One of these was the Rollerblading Night, when the paths of the JUlJlor School received a good workout l ThiS was followed by another of our MOVie Nights, which have all proved to be very popular. A number of parents have proVided wonderful support, not only 111 the area of food preparation but also with the

productIOn of craft work. It was as a result of thiS that we managed to hold a craft and cake stall outside Bunnings last year 10 aId of Perth City Mission. 1996 has seen Perth City Mission hold lts annual Winter Sleepout once more. Ir was again supported by the CYC with parents, relatives and friends be1l1g asked to donate a $10 babysitting fee. It was tremendously successful, attracting a.lmost seventy members of Years 8 and 9. This year we adopted the theme of a Pig Out, and even managed to have a real live pig drop in for an hour. The evening included the Plglymplcs (including such feats as Buildll1g Styscrapers, Getting the Pig to Market and Piggyback Races). Unfortunately the movie Babe was not released in time, but the Porcine Pursuits quiz at the end of the evening (early morning!) served to educate the revellers about our little snouted friends. Almost 100 students attended our Disco Night, all seeming to really el~oy the fun and games devised by Colin Moore, the DJ, and the lighting, which was controlled by a number ofYear 12 students. At the tlll1e of writing, we have a First AId Course planned together WIth another DISCO Night and will probably partICipate m tm rattling for Perth City MisslOlJ's Chnstmas Dinner collection, hopll1g to exceed last year's $500 in two hours.

Disco Night fun!!

ACTIVITIES YEAR 8 CHALLENGE DAY On 9 February, Year 8 had a 'Challenge Day', which meant that there were no classes for the Year 8s (yippee!!!). As the day began, the Year 8s proceeded down to the C Block lawns for the tabloid sports. When the whistle blew to 'let the games begin', the Year 8s pumped themselves up for what would be a day of orientation to the College and a lot of fun. The games consisted of sack races, egg-on-spoon drills, three-legged races, hockeyball drill. basketball shoot­ ing (parents: don't worry, the guns weren't loaded), hop-in-the-hoops, netball shooting, and ... what day of games would be complete without the old jump rope? After recess we split up into House groups and played 'name games' to try and learn more about the people in our House with two tutors/teachers and three Year 12 students who all made us feel very comfortable. We also had to interview a person and give a presenta­ tion about them in front of everybody else. After lunch we all played theatre sports, which had teams persuading, bribing and kidding the judges to try to win the comp 'tition. This was followed by a cool-down session as we watched a video-documentary on Michael Jordan. After a short break we enjoyed the flavour of life that is ... Chicken Treat. Then at 6.30 p.m. we crammed onto three buses and proceeded down the freeway to Melville Aquatic Centre. With great relief we entered the swim­ ming pool to cool off on one of Perth's hottest days. The competitions contin­ ued as we raced to improve our times. Later on that night we played two nov-

Time out from being challenged

elnes, one where we had to swim in pairs (holding hands) and another where we had to do the 'doggie paddle' (not as easy as it sounds). The day soon drew to a close and the pool slowly emptied, the Year 8s reluc­ tant ro end a day which encouraged new friendships and team spirit. Overall, we all found the day to be challenging yet fun and relaxing. The graduating class of 2000 was fortunate that AJI Saints' College took the time to make the 'freshmen' or 'newcomers' feel welcome. Call/(TOII

ACTIVITIES SAILING TEAMS

RACING

'1'1\RI..,1 11

On 9 and LO April, si-x stu­ dents from All Saints' College competed in the Teams Racing, which was held at the South of Perth Yacht Club in the Puffin Pacer sailing dinghies. The schools sail otf in a round­ robin competition against all the other schools. Thjs year the winds were very Light and we only managed to complete one round. Our team consisted of Nichobs Bryant (Captain), Ben Lawrie, Vicky Barnett, Michael Fisher, Leigh Ashwood, Melissa Bryant and Mr Thomson, who came down to help out during the day. Seven schools from WA entered the regatta: unfortunately All Saints' fin­ ished seventh, but everyone had a great time and ttled really hard. We just couldn't match last year's second place, but next year we will be a little more prepared and hope to make amends for this year's performance.

CHAMPIONSHIPS

On 11 and 1:2 April, five students from All Saints' College made their way over to Perth DlI1ghy SailIng Club for the SSSc. Nicholas and Melissa Bryant sailed their Pelican, Ben Lawrie and Leigh Ashwood sailed their Flying Ant, and Andrew Barnett sajled his Laser. Nicholas and Melissa finished first lTl their class and also their division. Andrew Barnett. Ben Lawrie and Lelgh Ashwood fil1lshed nud fleet. When All Saints' added up their score they fin­ ished seventh out of fifteen teams over­ all, which was an outstanding effort. Fortunately the wmd was a little kinder and allowed for some better racll1g than the prevlOUS two days. ThIS regatta was a very well orgal1lsed event and a great chance to socialIse WIth sailing friends from other schools.

ACTIVITIES ROTARY EXCHANGE STEFAN FOURIE Goeie dag All Saints'! First of all I want to thank Mr London and the whole of All Saints' College for hosting me through this year. I want to use thIs opportunity to say thank you to Rotary IIlter­ national and also Rossmoyne Rotary Club for this CTreat opportunity to come to Australia. This past year I have had the tlme of my life in this wonderful country. Australia is a country with a lot of hId­ den treasures and beauty. I have trav­ elled more than 2.+,000 kilometres III Australia and still I haven't seen every­ thing. Like they say, 'Australia is a big place'. Among the places I visited were Melbourne, Ayer's Rock, Alice Springs, aims, the Whitsundays, the Cold Coast, Sydney and Canberra. I travellcd a lot in Western Australia, too. I still think that Perth is one of the 1Il0st beautiful cities in the world. I have had a very enjoyable and lI1ter­ estin CT time attending AU Saints'. It took mc a while to gct uscd to the way you do things in school. The new subjects I had, like computin CT and drama, whIch I had never done before, were very inter­ esting and I learned a lot fi'om thelll. Teachers and other staff were all very kind and friendly and I very soon felt at home in the classes. I am so glad I came to Perth this year. I learned a lot about myself and also other people. I learned to become inde­ pendent and how to make decisions on my own. I made a lot of lifelong fi'iends whom I never will forget. My English improved a lot, which I'm really happy about. Surely I'm going to nuss Austrah'l and of course All Saints'1 I will come back and VIsit everyone a CT Olll1. Pleasc come and visit me 111 South Atrica. 5"fal/ FOl/rie

JAMES R FROTHINGHAM 1V C'day and good­ bye AJJ Sall'lts'! I'm James R Frothing­ ham IV (better known as Ja1l1Y or Rastas) and I've been a R.otary Exchange Student at thIS school for the past eleven months. Belllg the token Yank here has had ItS advantages and disadvan­ tages, but it's been lI1teresting. to say the Ieast. WhIle pretty much aU the highlights of my year here have been outside school, All Samts' hasn't been a bad place to spend my school time. Perhaps the biggest benefIt of me being here for Ol year is the knowledge of a complete­ ly diiferent kll1d of school system (and you can trust me that All Saints' is total­ ly ditTerent to Tn-Point High School in Cullom, IIlmols, USA). Som.e of the most notable differences are the uni­ torm, the level of discipline and respect, the way school here actually tries to prepare you for 'real life', and the reli­ f';IOUS affiliation. [f there has been one highlight from. my year 111 Oz it would have to be my month-long tour of Australia-the Capncorn Ramble. This lasted fi'om thc end of Apnl to the end of May. I trav­ eUed around thiS COulltn' with thlrty­

122

five other exchange students seemg everything from Ayers R.ock, central Australia and Queensland to Sydney and Melbourne. It was an incredible trip and definitely one of the best months of my life. There are many things I WIl] mIss about my life in Perth, the most impor­ tant of which have been all the friends I've made and the people I've met. Other than that, the things I will miss the most are the climate, the night life and culture, the different sports, Perth's damn fine beaches (especially Swanbourne) and the Perth music scene. One thing I won't miss is how expensive everything is. Whether they're good or bad (most of them are good). [ definitely have heaps of memories from All Saints' and fi~ol11 my year in Perth. Even if I may not want to admit it, I reckon J defi­ nitely have a bit ofAussie somewhere in lue. I'd like to thank everyone at All Saints' who has helped me out .mJ been a part of my year. Finally, I highly recommend Rotary Youth Exchange and any other exchange programme. If anyone is considering it, I encourage you to go for it, because-depcnding on your situation and how you play your cards-it could be the best year of your life. See you l Jail/cs R Frotltillglt(//II I J •

HOUSES

BUSSELL HOUSE Bussell made a great start to the year. We won the Inter-house Swinul1.ing Carnival. The evening meet was a wel­ come break from the heat of the day. After some very good efforts from many of our team and an exciting relay final, we were delighted to receive the House Shield. Matthew Dodd and Susan Sephton made sure they thanked everyone, including their team-mates, for rnaking the night such a memorable one. With this great win in mind, the House aptains were keen to celebrate by organising a House Lunch. All Bus ell students and Bussell House teachers met in the Lower Theatre and brought a plate of food. It was a real feast-plenty of food and drinks and lots ofjelly, too! In second term, the Cross-country was held. Despite the wet weather, there were ome fine efforts by some stu­ dents. Marissa Dew was the Year 5 run­ ner-up Champion Girl, while James Mason was the Year 5 Champion Boy. Jenny Tibbits was the Year 6 hampion Girl and Nathan Dunlop was the Year 6 runner-up Champion Boy. Susan Sephton was the Year 7 runner-up Champion Girl. There were some close finishes in some races. All students who ran and finished earned a point for their House. Bussell finished third for the Cross-country. We are' busy preparing for the Inter­ house Athletics Carnival. We have organised lunchtime practices for team events, while many of the individual skill events will be practised during PE lessons. With some of the times that have been recorded to date, Bussell should perform well at thiS carnival. We have several other thmgs to look forward to before the end of the year. We will have an Inter-house Quiz (Bussell won it last year and will have to work hard to defend that title), a Winter Games day (weather permitting), and we will hold our fundraising in fourth term. Matthew and Susan had a number of interesting ideas for fundraising so time will tell how much we will raise. Thank you to Matthew and Susan for their help and enthusiasm over the year. They have been fine ambassadors for their House and have always been pre­ pared to offer help and ideas in all tasks. Thanks also to the mallY House statr who have helped, advised and support­ ed Bussell House throughout the year.

We won the swimming!

HOUSES DRUMMOND

HOUSE

Drummond has had an extrem.ely suc­ cessful year. In the first semester there was an Inter-house SWImmIng Carnival. Drummond came fourth 111 the carnival, and we displayed good sportsmanship. In order to catch up to the other Houses, Drummond had to work extremely hard by getting House points, in which we succeeded. We had earned most of the House points, main­ ly through Inter-house sport. Inter­ house sport was one of the activities in which Drummond did extremely well. In Term 2 it was Druml1lond's turn to fund raise. Drummond chose to fundraise for the Care Australia Foundation. We held a slave auction for five days, in which the student council­ lors and a few teachers became slaves to the students. On the fifth day of our fundralsing events we had a free dress day, where everyone had to pay fifty cents for free dress. We are extremely happy to announce the grand total of $497.55, which we hope will assist the sick and helpless chlldren of Rwanda. Another event in Term 2 was the Cross-country Carmval.We finished second overall, only behllld Riley. Drummond also came second for the semester, behll1d Riley again. Next semester, III Terms 3 and 4, we hope to carry on our success and good sportsmanship as we did in Terms 1 and 2. We also hope to keep on doing well In the weekly House POlllts and in the Athletics Carnival, wll1ch will be held In dllrd term. With many good athletes and many enthusIastic supporters, Drummond was able to achieve many goals. Without the exceptional athletes, sup­ porters and the good sportsnunship that Drummond displayed, we would never have achieved as many goals. So we would like to give our special thanks to Miss Oldershaw, Ms Kennedy, Mrs McQueen and especially to the Head of T-TOUSt' of Druml1lond, Mr Plumb.

HOUSES MOLLOY

HOUSE

After winning the premiership last year, Molloy was obviously the team to beat. None of the tearns had really done any pre-season training but there was a good sense of fair play by all involved. All of the Molloy team came out fir­ ing in the first quarter and the head of the competition requested that Molloy go out hard, take the initiative (organise the fundraising) and create the spaces (organise an area for a waterslide), and bring it home before the quarter-time siren (before the end ofTerm 1). It was a physically hard first term and due to the 'wet' conditions many lost their footing and slipped along. However, Molloy worked hard to get the ball out (raised $430 for Princess Margaret Hospital for Children) and have the pomts on the board (led the points table). Noticeable performances by mdlvld­ uals came f.rom Tracey Wong, Holly Hands, Christopher Hewitt, Blake Bevilaqua, Bianca Monaco and Mlchael Hansen (SwlOuning Cltl1lval). The second quarter saw the lead change nuny tllnes 111 a tightly fought competition. Howevet as the siren sounded for the half-time break, we came a very close fourth. Molloy was plagued with a few nagging Injuries and the fitness of a few members of the team was dubious. There were however players who ran all day, noticeably Thomas Nanbvell, Holly Hands, Bianca Monaco and Leigh Mitsopoulos (cross-country) . The siren sounded for the start of the third quarter, which was as explosive as the first half, and a fantastic level of skill was displayed by all players. It is difficult to say who won the pre­ miership as the lights went out during the closing stages of the game. However I am sure that with its level of skill and fitness, Molloy will have a good chance of winning the premiership once again, under the keen eyes of Mr Chappell.

RILEY HOUSE As the OlympIC torch burst mtO flame at the start of its long journey to Atlanta, Riley House won its third gold medal In the House Points Competition at the end of Semester I. The House Captains Brooke McCaffrey and Matthew Mouritz were so proud of all of their House members. Early in February, one steamy hot evening, Lisa Graham won gold in thL' swimming pool, becom.ing the Year 7 Champion GirL Silver was won with a tenacious effort by Damel l3lackney, as he became equal runner-up Champion for Year 6 boys. Cord Hansen won another silver as runner-up ChamplOn for Year 5. The magnificent style and powelful six-beat kick ofVasala Warren carried her to gold as she became Champion Year 5 Girl. uccess continued on the athletics track, with Riley House fitness freaks acquitting themselves admirably in the Cross-country Circuit. Stephen Fitzgerald (Year 7) and Kristy Lewis (Year -l) both won silver medals. Every Riley House member fil11shed the gru­ elling race in the wet, windy conditions and their happy faces displayed theIr "reat sense of achievement and support for Riley House. In keeping with the OlympIc motto of 'higher, faster and stronger', Riley House encourages both body and mind. In their fundraising Read-a­ hon all students have been enCOtIr­ aaed to gath'r sponsors who will reward them for reading books, maga­ zines and newspapers. Cynthia assidy is l"tiley's bookworm, with three pages of titles already under her belt. Riley House is the emeraent 'Dream Team'.

Friday 22 September 1995 was a beau­ tiful warm day and all students in the Junior School from Year 1 to Year 7 were actively participating in a Tabloid Athletics Day to gain points for their House. From Year 4 to Year 7 each student is encouraged to achieve his or her per­ sonal best in the fi.lll range of field and track events (shotput, discus, tee-ball throw, 100 m, 200 111,800 1Il, 10ngjul11p, high jump, triple jump and hurdles). Standards are set for the awarding of bronze, silver or gold in each event and the very full morning programme allows for full participation and the pro­ motion of team spirit and good sports­ manshjp. After lunch the team games (passball, football and leaderball) are played, the relays are run and the day concludes with a grand relay involvlllg students from Year 1 to Year 7 repre­ senting their Houses. The results of the 1995 Year 1-3 Tabloid Sports Day were: Riley first with 309 points, Bussell second with 303 points, followed by Molloy with 302 points and finally Drummond with 289 points. A close finish indeed.

Agall1 a very close finish. The Inter-school Athletics Carnival was held on Friday 2 November 1995 at John XXIII College. The day began with a special breakfast for the team. All Saints' College was competing against Bunbury Cathedral Grammar, Fredenck Irwin, John Wollaston, Loreta, Newman, Carmel and John XXIII. The day was full of fun and excitement and our athletes were extremely successful in many events. Winmng the final relay of the day was a fittmg end to a terrific team effort.

INTER-SCHOOL SPORT 1996 is the second year of the JSHAA Co-educational Schools' Inter-school Competition in both the summer and winter sports for Years 6 and 7. In Term 1, four schools (All Saints' College, John XXIII, Carmel and Loreto) competed in the summer sports of cricket, basketball, tennis, softball and tee-ball. In Term 2, Newman made it five schools competing in the winter sporrs of netball, hockey, football and soccer. Students were able to choose a sport, and it was great to see boys and girls participating together in the same teams. The emphasis in this competition is on participation and enjoyment, with no scores recorded. A big thank you to those senior school students who have helped out with umpiring duties. The Inter-school Winter Lightning Carnival for Year 7s was to be held on 20 June with eight schools competing at All Saints' College, but due to severe thunderstorms the carnival had to be postponed until 27 June. The forecast for this day was also bleak, causing some schools to cancel. The weather improved throughout the morning so a mini round-robin tournament was held in the afternoon with Newman and John XXIII. The students were most grateful for the opportunity to compete with the other schools, even though It was on a smaller scale. f\.fiss Lore//a Cntgllale

CARNIVAL

On 21 March, thirteen Year 7 students represented the College at the 1996 JSHAA Basketball Carnival held at Perry Lakes Stadium. This was our third year of involvement. The event provides an excelJ nt opportunity for the many enthusiastic basketball players in Year 7 to team up and compete against keen competition from other independent schools. This year twelve schools took part. All Saints' College played an enthusias­ tic and disciplined brand of team bas­ ketball which resulted m three wins and two narrow losses in the prelmunary round. One of the losses was to Aquinas, by one point. ThIs was an excellent effort by our mixed team as Aquinas went on to win the competi­ tIon m a convincmg manner. Congratulations to Stephen Anthony, Kit Barker, Blake Bevilaqua, Shaun Choo, Paul Collings, Davld Dew, Matthew Dodd, Chris Hewltt, Natalie Laurenson, Priya Mahendran, Kent Mincherton, Philip Swanston and Tracey Wong for the positive and disCI­ plined way in which they represented the Col1ege. A very special thank you to one of our Year 11 students, Kate Burrows, for her assistance with referee duties on the day. Her contribution in this area was very much appreciated.

SPORT FITNESS CLUB Term 2 once again saw the start of our early morning Fitness Club. Three times :I week from 7.20 :I.m., students in Years -1-7 come ro the College :lnd exercise in a choice of three activities-running, walking or aerobics/circuits. Following their physical activity, the students :Ire treated ro breakfast, cour­ tesy of the many wonderful parents who give up their time so early in the morning. This year we had over 100 students and even a few parents attending each morning. It is wonderful to see so many of our young students realising the importance of exercising regularly and ensuring it is a part of their lifestyle. The Fitness Club is now in its fourth year, and already the improved health and fitness of the children in our Junior School is noticeable.

NETBALL This year the Junior School represented the College with five netball teams in the Fremantle Netball Association's 1996 \\linter Competition, held at Gibson Park. This is the largest number of teams the Junior School has fielded in the Saturday Competition, with one Year 3/4 team (Nippers), one Year 4/5 team, one Year 6 team and two Year 7 teams. It has been a successful season, and through the enthusiasm and conulllt­ ment of all players, improvement in skjlls and knowledge of the game has been evident. Just as importantly, good sportsmanship and enjoyment of the game have been displayed. The success of the season is ro be attributed to the great team of coaches and helpers, especially Mr Jenzen, Mrs Green, MichelJe McKim, Zoy Goff, Kate Brown, Mrs Holtham, Felicity Fletcher. Mrs Marks, Mrs Ursich, Leigh Grant, Claire Lister, Mrs Loxton, Mrs McCaifrey, Mrs FranCls and Mrs Klyen. A huge thank you to all those parents and students who have helped out with umpinng duties throughout the season and to all the supporters-parents, rela­ tives and friends-who came each week to support and encourage their chddren.

SPORT

SWIMMING AJl Saints' College JUl1lor School runs a most comprehensIVe aquatlcs pro­ gramme. Children in Years K-3 partIC­ ipate in an Aquatics Fun Day as well as in-term swimming lessons. Year 4-7 children begin the year with swimming trials, an inter-house carnival, swim­ ming training and then two inter­ school carnivals. They also have in-term swimming lessons, with the Year 6s and 7s having open-water instruction at the beach. The swimming trials were held on the first Friday of the school year at Canning Pool. AJl children from Years 4 to 7 are encouraged to participate, With free swims thrown Ul to add to the day's enjoyment. From the tnals children are chosen for their events for the Inter­ house SWlmnung Carnival. The Inter-house Swimming Carnival was an evenll1g affair for the second year runnmg, and once again proved to be a great success. Held at Cannll1g Pool on Tuesday 20 February from 4 to 7 p.m., all children from Years 4 to 7 competed in both traditional (butterfly, breastroke, backstroke, freestyle) and novelty events. By the time the sun was setting it was Bussell, with 576 pomts, who emerged as the Champion House, with Riley next (497), then Molloy (488) and Drummond (392). From the Inter-house Carl1lval results children were chosen for the two Inter­ school Carnivals. The first was held at Guildford Grammar School on Tuesday 27 February, with Hale and Christ Church also in attendance. The second of the carnivals was the JSHAA Co-ed Swimming Carnival held at Newman College. Both carnivals were held in the evening and the competitors from AJl Saints' College, who had been training three mornings per week at 7 a.m., par­ ticipated with tremendous enthusiasm and can be very proud of their efforts. A special vote of thanks must go to Melanie Koch, Kym Abbott, Daniel Abbott and Claire Andrewartha, who gave up their early morning beds to help with training. In the midst of all of these carl1lvals the Year 6s and 7s had their sWlmmll1g lessons at Cottesloe Beach. These were held from 12 to 16 February 111 glonous sunshine. Importantly, these lessons ensure our children experience opell­ water conditions, learning to deal with rIpS, waves and currents in addition to learl1lng their appropriate swimmlOg lewls.

CROSS-COUNTRY The JUl1lor School's prowess in athlet­ ICS, and 111 particular the distance events. stems from the commitment of the stu­ dents to their training. Three mornings per week the children meet at 7.20 a.m. In Term 2 Cross-country training is for anyone who wishes to attend. The term culnunates with the Inter-house Cross­ country Carnival. In 1996 this was a most successful day, with all children from Year 4 to Year 7 competing and earl1lng points for their Houses accord­ ing to where they finished. By the end of the day the Champion House was Riley (398): second was Drummond (351), then Bussell (293) and Molloy (276).

From [hiS carl1lval was chosen the squad for the Imer-school ream, who contmued [hel[ trall1l11g through Term 3. In additIOn, many students who did not make the Inter-school teanl chose to continue training With us. All the children who trained went along to the All Schools Cross-country Carnival held at Perry Lakes on 9 August and then the JSHAA Co-ed Inter-school Cross-country held at Perry Lakes on 19 September. Once again our students were outstanding, and they are to be commended on their commitment and application. Good running l Mr Michacl JCII_CII

MUSIC

MUSIC

The general class musIC programme gives all students in the JUlllor School an opportunity to be actively involved in music. Many children decide to choose additional options such as choir, recorder ensemble, piano or the stringed instrument progranU11e to fur­ ther develop their skills in music. Two choirs are resident in the Junior School. Membership is open to all chil­ dren ti'om Year 3 through to Year 7, with a love of ensemble singing being the malll prerequisite. With Mr McCumiskey as conductor and Mr Palmer as accompanist, the choirs have enjoyed singing a varied repertoire. The Junior School Recorder Ensemble gives students HJ Years 6 and 7 the opportunity to extend their recorder-playing skills in an ensemble setting. The group is comprised of vol­ unteers who meet each Tuesday lunchtime. Much of the musIc IS arranged specifically for the ensemble by its director, Mr Palrner. Ms Clarke teaches vlOlrn and VIOla to students from Pre-primary to Year 7, as well as taking the two JUl1lor School String Ensembles. The ensembles rehearse in the students' own time, giv­ ing them the opportul1lty to play and

perform together and to consolidate then skills. Mrs Shipard leads a happy and strong contmgent of piano players in the JunIOr School. Private tuition is achieved through a timetabled roster system in liaison with the relevant class teacher. Solo performance is always encouraged, but can be awesome to the young students. However, in our friendly and relaxed environment the children gradually become keen to par­ tiCipate, gaining confidence and boost­ ing their morale. Year 3 is the ideal time to commence this very rewarding disci­ pline, With new students always wel­ con1e. Some students organise their own private tUition-trumpet, flute, percus­ sion and vocal being a variety of the chOICes taken. A variety of performance avenues is provided by All Saints' College to enable students to display their skills, and there are regular opportunities for our musIC students to perform at week­ ly assembhes. A string and piano recital was held on Tuesday 28 May. Students from the JUl1lor School gathered 111 the Chapel for the reCital. The evenlllg lllcluded

solOists and ensembles performing a wide selection of excltlllg piano, violin, viola, cello and double bass repertoires. Thanks go to Ms Clarke, Mrs Shipard, Mrs McAslan and the many people who helped. Term 3 heralded the preparation and rehearsals for the Junior School Concert, held on Friday 6 September. Amid a coloU1ful collection of cos­ tumes and sets, children danced, sang or dramatised a myriad of performing arts items. All performers were well received by an enthusiastic and appreciative audience. The choirs, recorder ensemble, string and piano students had the chance once again to perform 111 the College Chapel in Term 4. Here was another opportu­ nity for JUl1lor School students to showcase their talents. Once again, the audience was treated to an outstanding display of musical items that reflected the depth of artistic talent amongst our student commul1lty. It is a credit to the music teachers, children and parents themselves that the music programme can tlourish as It does in our school. Mr John McCl/miskey

DANCE AND DRAMA

JUNIOR DANCE GROUP Some students from Years 5, 6 and 7 have been learning the art of movement through dance. The Junior Dance Group has been working to various tempos, experimenting with timing and rhythm. All members have worked and rehearsed tirelessly to produce an intri足 cate dance item which they performed at the Dance Concert in August and at the Junior Concert in September. Two Junior Dance Groups also par足 ticipated in the ACHPER Primary Dance Festival in November. The stu足 dents performed in front of 600 people ITl the Octagon Theatre at the Ull1versity of Western Austraha.

ACTIVITIES DEBATING AND PUBLIC

SPEAKING

Each Thursday afternoon a group of about twenty-five enthusiastic Year 6 and 7 students meets in rhe Junior School Library with one purpose in mind: to argue. Fortunately they are given guidelines and rules for these 'arguments', and 1 am pleased to report all have quickly learned them. The ability to speak confidently in front of an audience is an extremely valuable skill and one which this group has tackled with admirable enthusiasm. After one term of learning the for­ malities of debating and a second term of in-class debating, Terms 3 and 4 see the students participate in inter-school debates against Hale, Perth College and St Mary's. The year's culmination is the 'All Stars Challenge', where on the one night each school debates against all the others. This is a wonderful evening of debating and is a worthy testimony to the students' progress over the year, with the standard throughout the evening being exceptional. Thanks must go to Mr Andrew Horabin for his role in organising the Inter-school Com.petition and his assis­ tance in training the teams. J\lfr

JUNIOR SCHOOL CHESS DUrIng the year a group of dedicated chess player has been meeting once a week to hone its chess­ playing skills.

Every Tuesday at 7.50 a.m., members of the Maths Club prepare themselves for a fun-packed forty minutes of problem­ solving based on questions from previ­ ous MathematIcs Olympiads. Approx­ imately t\'1enty-two Year 7 students Join in the weekly competitIOn, eager to win the quality prizes, including pen­ cils, rulers, pencil sharpeners. packets of clips, etc. Attendance at the Maths Club helps students learn skills necessary for the Maths Olympiad which is run five times per year (that is once per month fi:om May to September). Five problems are given each month. About 25,000 students across Australia, New Zealand and Singapore participate in the Maths Olympiad. Because the competition's level of difficulty is very high, few students gain a perfect score each month. After two months we have only one student with two perfect scores. Two questions cor­ rect out of five is considered to be a very good result. Students work enthu­ siastically in groups of two or three, hoping to win the daily prizes. What do the students think about the club? 'I think Maths Club is a great time to learn while you have fun' (Robert Porter). 'Maths Club has helped me wlth my problem solvmg and It IS a great club' (Cynthia Cassldy).

'It's lots of fun but please no more pencl1s' (Matthevv Dodd). 'Maths Club helps rIle improve my maths skills. Every time I need new peIlClls I try hard to win a prize' (Stacey Golokm). 'I thmk It'S a great Idea and it should keep go 111 g' (Sean Tyers). A special thanks to the students who make Maths Club so rewarding.

On Saturday 20 March, two teams from the Junior School went to Lynwood Senior High School for the IBM Have Sum Fun Maths Quiz competition. Twenty-five schools were represented from the independent sector in addition to the Education Department schools. Four rounds, each comprising eight very difficult problems, were tackled by each team. These teams were made up of two students from Years 5, 6 and 7. Team spirit, collaboration and math­ ematical skills were all necessary to ensure that each round was completed. Our A team was in the lead for the first two rounds and eventually lost by one point, coming second overall with twenty-three points. Our B team also performed very creditably, with a total of fifteen points. It was a tremendous experience and great fun. Congratulations go to A team members ]acob Doogue and Ariel Armarego-Nlarriot in Year 5, Henrietta Smith and Andrianto Winata in Year n, and Tracey'Wong and Pnya Mahendran in Year 7, and B team members Blake Kagi and Cord Hansen in Year 5, Damel Blackney and Snvldya Bommakanti m Year 6, and BellJalllJll Bowden and Davld Dew in Year 7. ,Hr., ]ill WilliillllS

The Science Talent Search is an annuaJ competition org;lI1ised by the Science Teachers' Association ofWA. Its anll IS to stimulate interest in science and to encourage students to extend [hell' knowledge and skills in a chosen area of science. A group of student~ from Years 4 to 7 met on Tuesday afternoons to plan and prepare projects to enter this competi­ tion. They selected an area of interest and either conducted an investigation or created a decorative poster based on this topic. In 1996 topics selected included nutrition, water purity, recy­ cling, conditions for plant growth, immunisation and pollution. Some interestin o work resulted and we will be looking forward to the jud:e's decisions, hoping that our su ­ esses of past years will be repeated.

ACTIVITIES YEAR 3-MAKING THEIR OWN BOOKS In Term 1 the Year 3 class visited the Fremantle Children's Literature Centre to be enthralled by the process involved in producing two very appealing but different picture books, The Frog Prince, written by Nigel Gray and illustrated by cartoonist Allan Langoulant, and The Dream if the Dusky Do/phin, written by Jonathan Harlen and illustrated by Patricia Mullins. As the children studied the jotted notes, drafts, dummy books, photos and resources collected to study for illustra­ tions, they began to feel enthused about making their own picture books. The fun of the illustrations in The Frog Prince was a great motivation for ideas for the children's writing back in the class­ room, yet the soft, dreamy pastel draw­ ings and the fantastic element of The Dream if the Dl/Sky Do/phill were equal­ ly inspiring.

After brainstorming a variety of ideas the students studied the qualities of a good picture book and then chose their own stories. They had to edit their own work and then draw their draft illustra­ tions in 'dummy' books. Measurement skills helped the children set out their front covers, dedications and title pages. A lot of interest was shown in writing pieces about budding new authors and illustrators to be added to the back cover with students' blurbs about their books. Later in the term several Year 3s were selected to join a group of interested writers fi'om Years 4 and 5 for a Make­ A-Book Enrichment Class with Mrs Andrewarrha, Mrs Wood and Ms Kennedy. It was a joy to see the older children tackling the task with confi­ dence and understanding of the process, having already 'launched' one

book of their own. This was a wonder­ ful example for the younger students. All children are to be commended for completing such a huge task and for their perseverance. Once the books were returned from the Make-A-Book Competition, the Year 3 children began writing invita­ tions to parents and friends to attend their book launch in the library. Each new author read his or her book blurb to the audience before toasting their success with red cordial. It is the hope of the teachers involved that these fine young writers and illus­ trators will continue to gain confidence in their abilities and that they may progress to see their future work in print.

CAMPS YEAR_ 6 WOODBURY BOSTON ENVIRONMENTAL CAMP-ALBANY

On the morning of Sunday 31 March, fifty-three excited Year 6 students gath­ ered outside the College with their lug­ gage ready to commence a challenging week of adventure and learning at the Woodbury Boston Environmental Camp at Torbay near AJbany. Following some careful and organised packing of the trailer, it was time to say goodbye to the smiling parents and conUl1ence the six-and-a-half-hour journey south to Albany. Our arrival at 3.30 p.m. was greeted by afternoon tea and a trip to the beach to blo\-v away the bus cob­ webs. Early on Monday morning, forty-five enthusiastic campers leapt out of bed and joo-ged to the beach. The sand was damp from the previous night's dew but the air was beginning to warm up with the early morning sunshine. The sea was choppy and cold but lots of people had a swim. The morning was so clear you could almost count the individual rocks on the other side of the bay. At around 7 a.m. the rest of the group arrived on the bus. Tony, one of the camp supervi­ sors, took us up to the beach where some salmon fishermen were hauling in their nets. Tony talked to us about the salmon and herring fishing process and what the catch was used for. After dorm inspection it was time to put on our bathers, clothes and hats in readiness for our reef ecology day at Stewart Island. When we arrived we had to hike a fair bit until we callle to the rocks where we set up camp. All of us had a choice of tools to catch a crab or any other marine life. At the end of the day the aquarium was full of all kinds of sea life, including crabs, shrimps, seastars and fish. Fortunately none of the ani­ mals died or was harmed. The evening programme included

For four days we were to enjoy learning through e:>.rperiencing the life and cul­ ture ofAustralia's most important gold­ mining town. Visiting Hannan's North tourist mine gave us an understanding of the conditions miners worked in under­ ground. The lift cage was small, cramped and uncomfortable.

A group of students arose early one morning to go surfing. What beach? Other exciting visits included look­ ing at the enormous Superpit, learning about Jack Carin through studying his humpy, riding on camels and visiting the Museum of the Goldfields. Our stay 1D Kalgoorlie finished with a varIety concert, including playing Red Faces.

During our Kalgoorlie camp we learned more about each other, experi­ enced much of what is happening in Kalgoorlie and observed some of WA during a total of fifteen hours on the train. Thanks go to Mrs Gipson, Mr Jenzen and Mr Plumb for a great camp.

In the August budget, the Federal Government made it just that little bit harder for students, and job seekers in general, to rest easy about their futures. As we slowly find ourselves emerging 111to the prophesied 'Global Village', what the future holds is no longer as definite as it was in the 'good 01' days' that parents and grandparents are so fond of referring to. We now live in a socIety where the phrase 'Call me" has been superseded by 'Fa:x me!' or, in some cases, .E-mail me!' We have moved 111 one decade £i:om 'Life. Be in It', to 'Life is short. Play Hard'. Instead of sitting around contemplating the 'wireless', today's youth have so many media at their disposal that the unsus­ pectJng are falling prey to their djstrac­ tions. Many a role model has fallen from grace, and the youth of today must increasingly rely upon themselves to realise their own goals. The Class of '96 is a varied year group. The goals of the individuals in it do not conform to one central theme.

There are a few who want to make it to the Olympics, a few who want to make it in the music industry, and a few who just want to have a good time. I am sure that all students will do well in their chosen field. I hope that we never for­ get where we started, and the enormous impact being at All Saints' during our formative years has had. I hope we can remember, many years on, the people who succeeded in life just as easily as we recall that guy who took a fi:ee fall from the Exec. room window. I hope Mr Stapleton realises his drealTl of becoming a hair model. I hope Mr Dundas can eventually move out of home. I hope Mr Hill doesn't make many faux pas with his future Applicable Maths classes. I hope that we can make some changes for the better to our world. Most of all, I hope life is good to each and everyone of us. Remember the people you went to school with. You never know who will succeed. To next year's Student Editor~make sure you get reports and photos in early! I pass on the flame, in this Olympic year, in the hope that many others will enjoy the pleasure and memories which CO/l/Illba provides for many years to come.
