P I H S R A SCHOL G N I S I A R D FUN Something magical happened at BGS back in June. Through the use of a new crowdfunding platform, we raised an amazing $424,678 in just 24 hours – more than doubling our original target of $200,000, and more than doubling the number of people in our community who supported last year’s campaign. To the ‘matchers’ in our community who supported the Annual Appeal at the highest level, and to the 427 staff, students, parents, Old Boys, sponsors and friends who gave on the day, a sincere thank you. Your overwhelming support and your embrace of our innovative approach to this year’s appeal has enabled us to offer a further two means-tested scholarships. Two boys who would not otherwise have had the opportunity to attend BGS will now be able to do so, thanks to the amazing generosity of our community. The spirit of giving is certainly alive and well at BGS!

The r e h t w o Cr Centre We have had three areas of focus at the Crowther Centre this year. First, we have continued to deepen our understanding of how to teach boys better, and to put this into practice. Our new Director of Staff, Mark Dowley, has had a very positive impact by working through coaching programs with staff. Through our research, we have developed further the idea of ‘what it is to be an Effective Learner’, and continue to implement this model with all boys in Junior, Middle and Senior Schools. (The model appears opposite.) The data and research team has developed our capacity to better identify and track how your son is progressing through School. This has included further revisions to how we collect and, importantly, act upon benchmark testing like NAPLAN and Allwell. Our data does not define the boys, but it does provide a map for teaching staff to track and understand how the boys are learning.

GRAMMARIAN 2017
Finally, our capacity to improve learning outcomes continues to be enhanced through our relationships with external experts. This year, we ran and evaluated the first Rites of Passage father/son camp with Dr Arne Rubenstein. The prefects continued to collaborate directly with international bestselling author James Kerr to build our School culture. Once again, we hosted an international researchED conference at which education expert John Hattie was the keynote speaker. Christian Machar and I presented at the International Boys’ Schools Coalition Regional Conference about the Legacy Project and the importance of a sense of identity and belonging at school.

R E T S A M D A E H THE This year I have been privileged to host 20 Headmaster’s Tours for prospective BGS families. These tours provide me with the opportunity to glimpse the many different learning activities going on across the School at any one time, to showcase new building works and upgraded facilities, and to talk about all that is happening at the School. Each tour is a reminder for me of the breadth and depth of the programs run at BGS, and our unwavering commitment to providing a stimulating and challenging (yet supportive) environment in which every boy can be the best version of himself. Much has been achieved this year across the School. In particular, it is rewarding to see all of our boys striving to get the most out of themselves in the classroom, on the stage, in the outdoors, in the playground and on the sporting field. In 2017, we continued to focus on making the learning experience as clear as possible for the boys. From ELC through to VCE, we implemented the Building Effective Learners model, based on the work of education researcher Professor John Hattie and his Visible Learning framework. This framework is at the forefront of everything our teachers and students undertake, and ensures we are teaching students how to learn, rather than simply what to learn. Our VCE results for 2016 and this year’s NAPLAN results were strong – an indicator that our emphasis on academics, alongside the implementation of the Visible Learning framework, is having a positive effect. We look forward to congratulating this year’s VCE students on their results.

GRAMMARIAN 2017
Through our research hub, the Crowther Centre, we entered a partnership with the University of Melbourne’s Graduate School of Education (MGSE). This partnership guarantees that BGS remains a leader in understanding and practising education. It will also help us further develop the ‘BGS Way’, a vision initiated by George Henry Crowther when he founded a school based on the art and science of teaching boys. Through our collaboration with Dr Arne Rubinstein and programs such Rites of Passage and Young Warriors, our students continued to explore positive masculinity and what it means to be a successful man in the 21st century. We know from research that students with high levels of wellbeing are more likely to achieve high academic results, have better mental health, and live a more responsible, socially connected lifestyle. Wellbeing and awareness of mental health issues remained high on our agenda this year. We ran a Positive Parenting Program, heard from various speakers, and hosted information nights on our approach to mindfulness. There’s nothing better, on a Headmaster’s Tour, than happening upon a class of high-energy boys enjoying a few mindful moments in silence and stillness. This year’s Grammarian records the highlights of 2017; I hope you enjoy reliving them in these pages. My thanks to students, staff and parents for your efforts this year and for your ongoing support.

The Senior School has flourished under the leadership of Ben Durkin, Branko Skocic and Oli Barden, with unprecedented student voice and cultural development. Commencing with the Big Fella Camp, the Year 12 cohort came together in exploration of the four major archetypes that underpin a successful person – the warrior, the wizard, the caregiver and the sage, and returned from the mountain with a challenge to ‘join the dance’. This year, we have seen student-led initiatives, assemblies and chapels, all characterised by humour, wit and intelligence.

GRAMMARIAN 2017
Across our programs, the boys have demonstrated remarkable development. On the sporting field, team members showed great strength of character and learnt what it means to have high standards. During outdoor education programs – particularly the inaugural Rites of Passage program – the boys showed leadership and developed insight into healthy masculinity. We were also treated to incredible dramatic performances and musical concerts, with each providing an opportunity to test and develop character. It was pleasing to see the further progress of the Wellbeing Committee this year and a sense of developing the ‘care-giver’ within. This was significant for the boys, who chose to prioritise their physical, social and mental health and wellbeing, in order to develop into young men who embrace diversity.
The boys seized a number of wonderful co-curricular opportunities, from debating and chess to Student Council and others, with many great stories of achievement. It has been my pleasure to work with such talented colleagues to lead our students in what has been a very exciting and successful year for the Senior School. I wish to congratulate the boys on their efforts and thank staff and parents for their continued support and involvement.

L O O H C S E L D MID Education in the middle years responds to the physical, psychological, social, emotional and cognitive changes and challenges that characterise early adolescence. It aims to build solid foundations and habits that will hold boys in good stead for the rest of their educational journey and beyond.
Teaching and learning Our teaching and learning program aims to engage, motivate and help boys understand what an effective learner looks like. Learning intentions and success criteria have been an important plank in this journey and when visiting classrooms, it is evident that our boys know what they are learning, why they are learning it, how they will know they have learnt it and what their next steps should be. A shift to focusing on progress has also been significant, with boys receiving datarich feedback that is individualised and targeted. Increased attention on academics is having a positive impact as evidenced by our excellent NAPLAN results and the staff have done an amazing job inspiring and supporting boys with their learning.
Pastoral Last year’s introduction of the House merit system has been a significant factor in encouraging the boys to show allegiance to their House, while also clarifying our expectations of the
16
GRAMMARIAN 2017
boys’ behaviour and learning habits. The Pastoral Team have continued this great work throughout the year with the important addition of an Academic Care period at the end of the school day. During this period, the boys come together and meet with their House Tutors to focus on the ‘five Cs’: control, composure, commitment, coordination and confidence. Research has shown that these elements create academic buoyancy, provide boys with the opportunity to build resilience and ensure that they are motivated and engaged in their learning.
Opportunities At BGS, boys are constantly encouraged to explore as many opportunities as possible in order to broaden their horizons and discover their passion. Sport, music and drama are pillars of our co-curricular offerings and there have been some incredible achievements in these areas throughout 2017. Debating, chess, iDesign, Student Voice and the Charity Committee are just a few of the many activities on offer to our boys. Every
one of these opportunities gives the boys a chance to make a positive contribution to the culture of the School. It has been most gratifying to see so many boys presenting about their activities in assembly with such a sense of pride and honour, and in such a confident and articulate manner. I would like to acknowledge the work of our student leaders, who have made a significant contribution to the School culture this year. The Middle Years represent an important and challenging phase of a boy’s educational journey. It has been a privilege and an honour to lead an incredible team of staff whose passion, commitment and dedication has been nothing short of inspirational.

L O O H C S R O I JUN When I reflect on 2017 in the Junior School, the world ‘consolidation’ comes to mind. We have seen consolidation – both physical and conceptual – in many areas and this has had an extremely positive impact on the experience of our boys.
been extended into the Middle School this year, with BGS families and teachers welcoming two students from the Melbourne Indigenous Transition School (MITS).
The sequential Outdoor Education program at BGS is the envy of many independent schools. This year, for the first time, the ELC was incorporated into the program, providing our boys with the chance to participate in journeys through a variety of locations and landscapes. ‘The journey’ is also a key concept in the Year 4 Young Warriors program, led by Dr Arne Rubinstein, and the Year 6 Father and Son Rafting Adventure. These are the sorts of experiences the boys remember forever and I’m grateful for the effort the Outdoor Education staff put into planning and implementing the program.
I am particularly impressed by the consolidation and collaboration demonstrated by the Year 6 cohort, which has had its challenges in the past. The Year 6s have made significant progress this year, stepping up to take on leadership opportunities and provide role models for our younger boys. Their attitude in the playground and the way they have cared for their Prep and Year 1 buddies has been pleasing. The boys combined with Firbank to put on the musical Beauty and the Beast Jr; the audience was impressed with their professionalism and talent. A group of Year 6 students also arranged a team to participate in the Relay for Life. They ran overnight to complete more than 200 km as a team and to raise in excess of $7000 for the Cancer Council.
We consolidated the Indigenous experiences available to the boys this year by increasing the number of students able to participate. Eight Year 6 boys travelled to Milikapiti, on Melville Island, alongside some Year 6 girls from Firbank. We have also developed a relationship with Pormpuraaw, on the Cape York Peninsula, and in August we welcomed eight boys to BGS, who joined our friends from Milikapiti. In 2018, it is our intention to send boys to Milikapiti and Pormpuraaw. We are also delighted that the Indigenous experience has
Junior School students enter a variety of competitions over the course of the year. In 2017, we had excellent results, including a number of medallists. Congratulations to James Tan for his perfect score in the Maths Olympiad and to Thomas Dunne, who received a perfect score in the ICAS Maths. These results reflect the individual talent and the academic focus and gains the whole School has made over the last couple of years. In particular, this year’s Year 5 students have made outstanding progress, according to NAPLAN results, since they were in Year 3.
We have also had a number of high achievers in sport – see page 158 for those boys who competed in state and national competitions. Refurbishment of the learning spaces has facilitated the consolidation of the Upper Primary team. These new spaces and facilities enable our staff to more effectively implement the Visible Learning approach now being used throughout the School. There was great excitement at the beginning of Term 4, when the refurbished Library, Music and Learning Support spaces were opened for use. We are now 12 months into a three-year refurbishment plan; the Lower Primary area will be ready for the beginning of the 2018 school year. The redeveloped cricket nets, to which funds were donated by the Junior Parents’ Group, have received a workout this year, during PE classes, APS sports competitions, Share Community Campus programs and lunchtimes. It’s great to see our new facilities being used and enjoyed so thoroughly. Thank you to all members of the Junior School community for your contributions to ensure the success of 2017.

Significant progress has been made in a number of areas during 2017, particularly in building projects, partnerships, and ICT and data.
Building projects Development in the Junior School continued, with several projects commencing and being completed over the course of the year. • The upper primary classrooms and specialist teaching spaces were added for the new school year, while existing upper primary rooms were refurbished. • The Junior School creek natural playground and landscaping project finished during Term 1, resulting in an important upgrade to the heart of the Junior School. The space has reinvigorated the creek area and provided a new play environment for the boys. • A major internal refurbishment was commenced in June. The Library and Learning Support areas were completed in Term 3, with lower primary being refurbished in Term 4 and over the summer holiday break. It will be exciting to reveal the lower primary classrooms and reception area for Day 1, 2018. • Thanks to generous donations from our Junior Parents’ Group, we were able to renovate the cricket nets and sports court area. This project has delivered a new long jump pit and an adaptable multi-sport surface.

GRAMMARIAN 2017
We plan to continue works in the Junior School, with some very exciting new projects planned for development in 2018/2019. Senior School building works also continued. • The redevelopment of the Tower Wing was completed in two stages over Terms 1 and 2, transforming 17 of the oldest classrooms in the School into contemporary teaching spaces. • A new Student Services area was created, combining Learning Support, Counselling, Careers, VCE Support and Student Health. This area has improved student access to these services and co-located staff who were previously on different sites around the School. After waiting a little longer than expected for the necessary local Bayside City Council compliances to be approved, the Annandale project is now in full swing. This project has been enabled by the wonderful philanthropic support of the BGS community and will deliver new change facilities, a fully equipped gymnasium and a function room. The project is expected to be completed during Term 2, 2018.
Partnerships A number of new partnerships have been forged with a view to continuing to identify service-delivery improvements and add value to the School. Ricoh, Soniq, Knight Sports, The Crescent and Furnware have
joined the partnership program in 2017, bringing the total number of companies partnering with BGS to more than 30. The School’s corporate partnerships program helps companies to engage with the School at a strategic and business level.
ICT and data Our information and communication technology systems have continued to improve and expand in 2017. Under the leadership of our new ICT Director, Sandra Maher, we have expanded the service model, with increased day-to-day and notebook repair support for the boys and the staff. We have upgraded the School internet connection to deal with the increasing requirements for data/streaming to support learning, and moved The Hub to be a Cloud-provided service, improving availability and agility. Across the School we have continued our focus on data. The School now has a mature data warehouse with several million records that are being used to identify learning insights and support our decision-making. With so many dynamic projects currently taking place to support the wellbeing and learning of students, this is certainly an exciting time at BGS.

N I A T P A C L O THE SCHO Year 12 has been an unforgettable and overwhelmingly positive time for the Class of 2017. Along with the challenges, there have been many highlights. Who can forget the sight of 500 passionate BGS students chanting at the old Crowther Oval for our cricket, rugby and football teams? Or the remarkable sounds of Julian Ou’s cello solo at the combined concert with Firbank at the Melbourne Recital Centre? The accomplishments of so many students throughout the year have been phenomenal, and all these stories have shaped our experience of it. Above all, 2017 has seen the development of an unrivalled Tonners’ culture. The sense of community across the School and the way we care for each other has become a hallmark of BGS, and is the envy of schools across Victoria. BGS students feel they are a part of something more special than just receiving an education, and understand that being a Tonner means that we learn how to become good young men. The camaraderie we share at BGS is second to none and that, I believe, is the great value of attending this School.

I am especially proud that the Year 12 class of 2017 has led the School with such outstanding enthusiasm and passion. The spontaneous creation of a ‘wear your worst’ casual clothes day and a mass fundraiser to shave Dr Swann’s head for charity might seem small events, but they typify the way in which the Year 12s breathed energy into the School and made it such a memorable year for all students. It is with a tinge of sadness that we pass under the Oak for one final time as BGS students. While the Year 12 class will now venture down many separate paths, we are united by the amazing experiences we have shared at BGS. I couldn’t have asked for a better group of mates to have spent my schooling with. We look forward to seeing the BGS community grow and flourish in 2018 and beyond. Ben Durkin School Captain
APTAIN C L O O H C S E L D ID M The time spent in the Middle Years is a unique period of growth and development for most boys. The aim of the Middle Years program is to help us leave our primary schoolboy behaviours and learning habits behind, and prepare us for the transition into the Senior Years. One of the main aims of our leadership group this year was to ensure that there was no divide between the Year 7 and Year 8 cohorts. So, without a doubt, the highlight for me was seeing the bond between the two year levels from day one; everyone just got along really well. Many Year 7 and Year 8 cricket matches were played during recess and lunch, with everyone keen to join in. We all felt strongly that establishing this connection from the beginning was critical to a positive culture in the Middle School. Complimenting this is a long line-up of highlights for 2017, not least the House activities, camps, joint production with Firbank, Connor’s Run, the Year 8 Father and Son Camp, the Mothers’ Day Breakfast and the High Tea, Project X for Year 7 and, of course, iDesign for Year 8. Throughout the year, I have been very fortunate to have received support from my peers, and the Middle School leaders and teachers. Very special thanks to Andrew Penca (Vice Captain), Mr Barnett and Mr Furey, who all encouraged me and the leadership group in various ways. My year would have been chaotic without the support and guidance of these three. It is with a degree of sadness, yet also excitement and anticipation, that our Year 8 cohort progresses to the Senior Years and I wish my fellow Year 8s well in this endeavour. While temporarily leaving behind our friends from Year 7, we look forward to watching them step up to the plate and continuing the momentum our group established this year – we are sure they will make their own mark!

AIN T P A C L O O H C S R JUNIO I am regularly told how amazing it was for a boy who had only arrived at the School 303 days prior to become Junior School Captain. When it was announced, I couldn’t believe it. My jaw dropped. I even remember asking one of my peers next to me to pinch me. It was all a dream, a dream come true. Initially, the role of School Captain was challenging, as I was yet to earn the trust of some of my peers, and this took a while to do. This is one reason why I wish the Captain of 2018 well and wish him luck. Whomever it may be, one of many lessons I have learnt is: Never give up. I’m sure you have heard Mr Tellefson often say, “You don’t have to be the best, you just have to give of your best.” Highlights for me as School Captain included: • taking tours of the School • wearing my badge and tie with pride • being given the opportunity to speak and present at important events, such as the Year 12 Beating of the Bounds • being given the honour of thanking many teachers for their contribution to the School. This year has truly been one of the best years of my life. I wish all the Year 5 boys the best of luck for the year ahead. To all the boys: Good luck, have fun and don’t forget, Tonners never give up! Jarod Prins Junior School Captain

d n a g n i Teach S G B t a g Learnin 7-12 The Teaching and Learning space at BGS has experienced significant growth and development in 2017. We have continued to focus on embedding Learning Intentions and Success Criteria within lessons so that the boys have a clear understanding of what they need to learn and achieve successfully. The Heads of Faculty have continued to make great improvements in curriculum offerings at all year levels. The boys’ learning has been centred around the Australian Curriculum and the Effective Learner Model, with the aim of ensuring that the boys understand where they are in their learning and what they need to do to improve. Boys have been given greater flexibility and choice. In particular, the new VCE subjects introduced in the Senior School have been very well received. The parent–teacher discussion evenings held in the Middle School proved to be a success and we achieved the greatest participation rate on record. This highlights the importance and value placed on our Three-Cornered Partnership. Throughout 2017, BGS has maintained its atmosphere of innovative and dynamic learning, providing an environment in which all boys are given the opportunity to be their personal best.

ELC-6 Teaching and Learning in the Junior School has continued to flourish in 2017. Staff and boys have been working on building a common language so that they all have a clear understanding of what an Effective Learner looks like in the Junior School. In the ELC, staff identified what it means to be ‘ready to learn’ and the key aspects of this. In all of the rooms, during group time boys were asked, “What was your golden moment of learning?” This gave the boys a chance to share their thoughts on what they had learnt, how they went about their learning, why it was important to them, and who they learnt with. Their responses were documented in their Individual Developmental Portfolio and shared with their parents. The provision of more effective feedback to the boys was a major focus for 2017, from Prep to Year 6. The goal was to provide a roadmap for the boys, highlighting their strengths and areas for improvement. The feedback was linked to the Learning Intention and helped the boys to understand the goal of the lesson or unit of work. In the second half of the year, to the delight of everyone, the new Library and Learning Support Areas opened. They are vibrant learning spaces that inspire creativity and encourage diversity. Staff and boys are also eager to start using the newly renovated lower primary classrooms. Joanne Davies Director of Teaching and Learning – Junior School

English In English we aim to ensure that boys master the cognitive and literacy skills they need to navigate their increasingly complex lives, but also to foster a love of reading and an understanding of the importance of art and literature in understanding the world. We are committed to encouraging our boys to read – for pleasure and for information. Our set texts are ‘boy-friendly’, but they also reflect the wider world, giving boys the opportunity to explore multiple perspectives. In Years 7 and 8, the boys undertook a daily writing practice, during which, as the name suggests, they would handwrite (yes – no computers!) for 10 minutes at the beginning of each English class. Through this discipline, every boy wrote thousands of words, implementing different genres and exploring many topics. Our Years 7 and 8 boys are not scared of writing, nor do they see it as a chore. Similarly, in Years 9 and 10, boys studied and emulated a variety of text types and were encouraged to create their own comics, feature articles,
28
GRAMMARIAN 2017
photo essays and adaptations. We are confident that this focus on writing will hold the boys in good stead as they move into their senior years. While our strong English VCE results are a culmination of years of focused work by many people, the dedication of our Year 12 teachers, who rolled out a new Year 12 curriculum this
year, is appreciated. In 2017, our VCE curriculum was supplemented by extension classes on Wednesday afternoons, many eminent external speakers – including Chief Examiner, Bob Hillman – and a holiday revision program. Kristen Molloy Head of English

Mathematics STANDARDS have continued to increase at an exponential rate at BGS. Our most impressive results have come through competitions, with two prize winners in the Australian Mathematics Competition: Zachary Bowen (Year 7) and Jack Liu (Year 11). Zach was deemed strong enough to gain a free entry to the Australian Intermediate Mathematics Olympiad, while Jack has focused his mathematical endeavours on Specialist Mathematics, after achieving a perfect score in Mathematical Methods while in Year 10. These competitions help to extend all of our students, encouraging problem-solving in unfamiliar contexts. The success didn’t stop there, with Jack achieving a 3rd prize in the tough University of Melbourne Mathematics Competition for the second successive year. Year 10 student Victor Ding also received a prize and an Outstanding Award in the competition, which comprises eight questions and takes up to three hours to complete. Year 11 student Steven Sun earned a Certificate of Merit. We have seen increased enrolment in the Monash Extension Mathematics program, which provides an opportunity to undertake university-level Mathematics while in Year 12. Students in the Middle School have continued to engage with Mathematics through an improved academic program that encourages them to target areas of weakness and improve their skills, while also undertaking practical activities such as the Maths Survivor Challenge and the Golf Course Challenge.

y g o l o n h c e T d n a IT Computing at BGS continued to grow in 2018, with a range of elective subjects and activities available. The Middle School Coders’ Club provided the opportunity for boys with an interest in coding to learn the basics or extend their current skills. Year 9 Robotics classes with Adrian Janson moved into the new home of Robotics in the Yates Family Innovation Lab next to the Senior School Library. Boys solved a range of realworld problems using LEGO Mindstorms NXT programmable robotics kits. The highlight of the semester was the competitive Sumo Robot Challenge. In Year 10, the elective units of Games Development and Programming encouraged boys to extend their software development knowledge to produce a range of small applications and games, using a range of programming languages. For many boys, VCE Computing is the culmination of many years of IT experience. In Computing 1/2 boys broaden their skills to use a range of IT tools, including networking, web development, databases and programming. In Software Development 3/4, the problemsolving process is used to design and develop purpose-built applications for a client. The boys made applications for local shops and businesses, as well as applications for The Hub. Working for a client teaches invaluable lessons and the applications developed were outstanding.

2 1 7 e c n Scie The Science Department strives to provide the boys with opportunities to learn skills and develop scientific understanding that will prepare them for future studies as well as for their life after school. In 2017, the Department has focused on developing tools to support the School’s objectives of helping the boys become Effective Learners. To allow staff and students to track progress in scientific skills, a 7–12 practical rubric was developed; this is now used as a consistent assessment and feedback tool across the Department. Targeted feedback has also been employed to start developing boys’ understanding of their strengths and weaknesses so that they can better use their preparation time for assessment tasks. To develop scientific literacy, teaching activities such as close literacy tasks and Marzano’s 6-step process for building academic vocabulary were trialled and then implemented at appropriate times. These methods have helped boys develop their scientific vocabulary and understand how to use it in scientific explanations. We have provided a range of experiences for the boys in 2017, including: • Professor Bunsen presenting to the whole School during Science Week • investigating forces by launching bottle rockets • soldering circuits to match architectural design • investigating geological sites and developing an exhibition stand • VCE students performing Piaget testing on ELC and Year 1 students (both parties loved this!) • designing research questions and carrying out experiments to investigate these questions across all VCE Science subjects To add to these experiences, in 2018 we will be offering two new electives at Year 10: Biotechnology and Analytical Chemistry.

6 p e r P Science When Junior School boys attend Science classes, they are usually very enthusiastic and keen to become involved in the investigations. One of the reasons for this is that they like to work in teams. Teamwork can involve a variety of tasks, during which the boys make mistakes, identify them and plan ways to avoid them in the future – an extremely valuable learning process. Most weeks involve hands-on investigations that the boys help to plan. This allows for some individuality between the groups and enables the boys to learn from each other’s investigations. Teams are expected to present the findings of their experiment, backed up by the data they recorded. The conclusion that each team presents to the class can be challenged by other class members in a constructive way. This helps teams to find ways to improve their investigative techniques.
Design and Technology This year, the boys have been very busy creating devices that serve a set purpose. As they work through the phases of research, planning, design, construction, evaluation and modification, the boys are developing their problem-solving skills. At the end of every unit, the boys undertake a challenge that tests their device against its previous performances. Sometimes they also compete against other boys’ devices in an atmosphere of fun. This tends to make for a thrilling conclusion to the unit. During the year, the boys created the following devices: Preps: Catamarans that were sailed across the School swimming pool Year 1: Wobble board mazes with a second layer for trapping the ball Year 2: Electric fan-driven cars Year 3: Electric belt-driven cars Year 4: Balsawood gliders Year 5: Pinball machines Year 6: Billycarts Bill Gibney Head of Junior School Science and Technology

s e i t i n a Hum Our VCE Senior School Geographers undertook a field trip to Armstrong Creek in Geelong to analyse how changing land use is affecting the natural environment and the local economy, and changing living standards for people moving into the area. While this field trip is a key requirement for the Year 12s, it also brings to life real environmental issues in a way that no textbook could illustrate. Year 10 Geographers travelled along the coastline of Port Phillip Bay from Hampton to Half Moon Bay. They studied the natural processes operating at the different beaches and assessed the impact of human attempts to modify or control these processes. Some budding VCE captains of industry attended a BGS Breakfast Bio to hear the Managing Director of Alibaba (Australia and New Zealand), Maggie Zhou. She spoke on the importance of e-commerce for Australian businesses and the need for Australian business to cater to the Chinese market. Current students were able to network with many Old Boys at one of the biggest breakfasts of the year.

The Year 7 and 8 boys continued to develop their skills in History and Geography, with a semester spent on each subject. The Year 7s were introduced to the wonderful world of historical discovery and source analysis, as they explored life in Ancient Australia and Ancient Rome. In Geography, there is great practical application available, and a highlight for the boys was their excursion to Church Street, Brighton as part of their unit on Liveability. The boys collected data and considered the features that make an area liveable … or not! The Year 8s’ second year of Humanities allowed them to consolidate and build on their historical and geographical skills. The City Experience in Term 4 provided boys with the opportunity to explore Melbourne’s history, with tours of the MCG and Shrine of Remembrance. In the classroom, their learning was focused on medieval Europe. The boys’ semester of Geography was centred on issues relating to urbanisation and its impact on cities and people. As part of their Landscapes and Landforms course, the boys visited Brighton Beach to learn about beach landscapes and their geographic features. Louise Carroll Head of Humanities Senior School

VCE PE We began 2017 in the best possible way, with 30% of VCE PE students gaining 40+. This was a testament to the hard work put in by both staff and the boys during the previous year. During 2017, staff have been preparing thoroughly for the 2018 change in study design. We have been working closely with Chief Examiner Dr Rachael Whittle, who has worked extensively with the Victorian Curriculum and Assessment Authority to develop curriculum and assessment materials for VCE PE.
Sport and Exercise Science (Year 10) This course was introduced a couple of years ago and has been a great success. Two classes of Year 10 boys have been using sports GPS and heartrate monitors to analyse their own and others’ performance, and this technology has given us great insight into how we can structure training to prepare the boys for competition. Boys completing this course get a head-start on much of the curriculum content required for VCE PE.
Sports Psychology and Coaching (Year 10) This course, which is being introduced into the Faculty for 2018, helps prepare the boys for the VCE PE curriculum. It gives them an insight into what is required for athletes to overcome obstacles and have confidence in their own abilities. How can they reach their sporting potential? An understanding of psychology is a vital part of becoming a successful athlete. Boys will also look into the science of coaching and, as part of the experience, will coach the BGS ELC students.
Health and Physical Education 7–10 A great year was capped off by some excellent performances in Health and PE Week. New to the Health curriculum at BGS is the Digital Citizenship (Cyber Safety) program (introduced in 2017) and the Rights, Responsibilities and Respectful Relationships program (beginning in 2018).

ART In VCE Art, boys use art as a vehicle for expression and produce self-directed folios and artworks on an individualised theme. They pursue areas of personal interest and conduct a practical investigation into media that will help them articulate their ideas. This practical and conceptual exploration culminates in at least two final artworks. Throughout the creation of their folios, the boys constantly problem– solve, learning creative thinking skills that they will be able to apply in all facets of their lives. These folios also become the basis of their interviews for a myriad of art and design courses at university. At other year levels, boys complete a mix of set and self-directed tasks. They are given the opportunity to explore and develop skills in a range of traditional and contemporary media. From drawing and sculpture to digital photography and Photoshop, the boys are often challenged, yet always remain engaged in their learning. Art provides them with an outlet to explore their creativity, and for many boys it is a welcome break from their other subjects.

n g i s e D Product y g o l o n and Tech In Product Design and Technology, boys follow industry standards to generate a brief, carry out research into sustainability issues, produce design options and working drawings, and do a cost analysis before beginning production. These are seen as ‘real-world skills’ and give the boys the confidence to deal with adults outside of the framework at BGS. Timber is sourced from local suppliers and is chosen for both aesthetic appeal and its ability to meet the demands of everyday wear and tear. Where needed, outsourcing is encouraged; this may take the form of a large benchtop that needs industrial sanding, or a particular type of finish that the boys do not have the facilities to complete at School. We are fortunate to have built up a wide range of industry connections, who provide the boys with a wealth of knowledge and experience. The finished products speak for themselves.

SENIOR SCHOOL BGS Drama continues to grow and provide a positive arena that fosters the values of tolerance and mutual respect, and invites our boys at all year levels to challenge themselves individually, academically, culturally and socially through dramatic styles and techniques. It also provides an objective forum that offers them the chance to explore different types of human interaction, encouraging them to expand their knowledge and communication skills for a society in which they want to be informed and participating citizens. The Bayside VCE Drama Cluster was established this year to provide our growing number of VCE Drama students a collaborative stage for their creative expression with likeminded students from other schools in the area. Students were able to share, explore, discuss and create ensemble performances based on the topic, ‘Consumerism: How much are you willing to pay?’ Via the performances,
50
GRAMMARIAN 2017
students researched consumer culture, and examined the personal, social and global implications of consumerism. They also presented a vision of the evolution of consumerdriven advertising. The standard of these performances was of outstanding dramatic quality and rewarded highly by external VCE Drama assessors. This year, BGS Drama went global when the Year 10 class enjoyed an interactive and blood-splashing performance of Shakespeare’s epic history play Henry V at the Pop-Up Globe Theatre. The experience inspired the boys to produce their own verbatim/process class ensemble performance, ‘War – What is it Good For?’, which was enjoyed by parents and students alike. The Year 9 class demonstrated their newfound passion for Shakespeare and his language by devising a hilarious ensemble performance of The King’s Men, which cleverly incorporated a number of Shakespeare’s famous plays. Thank you to Captain of Drama, Steven Alesi and CoVice Captains, Alexander Adams and Sam Grose. Their enthusiasm and passion has been influential in encouraging greater student involvement in Drama and left a legacy that deepens the foundations of our evolving and expanding expressive dramatic culture at BGS.
MIDDLE SCHOOL This year, boys in Middle School Drama classes developed their performance skills and self-confidence through specific practical dramatic activities. These focused on increasing their understanding of spatial awareness and self-awareness (through the exploration of neutral mask, Basel mask, Greek theatre and clowning) as well as strengthening their communication skills in an era of terminology expectation and saturation. Visual comedy liberates the boys from reality, allowing them to explore the ridiculous, and encourages them to step outside their ‘safety zone’, giving them freedom to create. Students learn to identify what makes them laugh and why they laugh, and how different types of comedy express the silly side and empathetic nature of the human spirit. Find us a Middle Years student who does not like to clown around! A special thank you to Adrienne Mewett for helping me share the ‘whoopee’ in our drama classes with the boys. If drama be the food of applause for our boys – play on! Myles Collins Head of Drama and Production
JUNIOR SCHOOL Drama in the Junior School works to develop the students’ confidence to perform, their ability to be creative and the strength of their social skills. It provides opportunities for students to make meaning of their world, and enables them to express and communicate ideas in the art form.

C I S U M M O O R S S A L C “Music to me is the perfect expression of the soul.” – Robert Schumann The number of students studying music as an academic subject continues to rise, and at VCE level there has been some outstanding results. At the start of the year Julian Ou, who was a part of the high-performing Music Performance Unit 3/4 class of the previous year (100% of the class scored 40 or above), received a Premier’s Award for achieving a perfect study score of 50 for the subject. These results are an outcome of the teaching and learning that occurs in the study of music from Years 7 to 12, with performance, analysis, composition, aural and theory being the major foci as the boys develop a multitude of skills to become better musicians. In the Middle School, the focus is on the students enjoying music as an art form in areas that have relevance to them in their everyday lives. They work to develop a greater appreciation of music as a language and explore their more creative sides through composition and performance. Classroom Music at Wilson House has continued to go from strength to strength, with more boys in Junior School ensembles than ever before this year. The curriculum has continued to focus on music appreciation, with a significant emphasis on using aural, composition and theory skills in a performance context. Boys in middle and upper primary have learnt about music from around the world, danced, played un-tuned and tuned percussion, read scores, studied program music, learnt about different periods of music and, in the words of the boys, sung a lot! Boys in lower primary have focused on singing and moving, and using a Kodaly approach to reading and writing music. They have also incorporated percussion in their composition and performance activities.
Music Incursions The students are given a number of experiences to deepen their understanding of the topics studied in the music classroom. As part of the Year 7 course on African music and rhythm, the students participated in an incursion by Rhythm of Life African Drumming. They learnt the basic techniques of African drumming using the traditional djembe, as well as other instruments such as the balafon and dun-dun. They also explored the elements of this style, including call and response, improvisation,
52
GRAMMARIAN 2017
and arrangements of traditional rhythms to create polyrhythmic compositions. They received an insight into the cultural and historical context of the music and its role in West African life, broadening the context of what they were studying in the classroom. The Year 8 students undertook a unit of film music, looking at the various elements of this genre and creating their own soundtracks to vision. To assist in this process, the boys were involved in a session with visiting artist Kate Dean, who gave them an insight into the important role that a composer plays in making a film come to life and how to make a scene, through music, appeal to different audiences. They practised the various elements required to compose a good soundtrack and discussed the potential career opportunities that music can offer. They participated in a hands-on activity during which, with Kate’s guidance and expertise, they created the music for an opening title sequence for a film. The Senior Big Band and Intermediate Stage Band were lucky enough to work with guest artist Jordan Murray as part of their preparation for the Generations in Jazz festival in Mount Gambier. Jordan, who is currently lecturer in Jazz Studies at Monash University, has performed with artists such as Tom Jones, The Temptations, The Four Tops, Joss Stone and Kylie Minogue, as well as playing with the Sydney and Melbourne Symphony Orchestras and arranging music for many companies, including on the show ‘Dancing with the Stars’. Jordan spent the day working with the boys on the art of big band playing, giving them many great tips on practising, improvisation and playing as a team. His insight certainly inspired many of the boys and developed their enthusiasm for this style of music. In the Junior School, Prep to Year 4 boys were treated to a performance of Mozart’s ‘The Magic Flute’ by the Opera Australia in Schools program as part of their unit on the Classical Period. ‘The Magic Flute’ is a mysterious and wonderful tale, following four young people’s journeys as they discover their own strengths and weaknesses. Its story of truth and light, and friendship and forgiveness, told with enchanting music, delighted the students and was an entertaining way to help introduce them to this period in music history.

s e g a u g n La In 2017, the boys were given many opportunities to experiment with the different aspects of their language learning, whether they were in Prep or in Year 12. Through the process of learning a different language, students acquire knowledge and understanding of the semantics of how languages operate – including English. They also gain an insight into the culture and traditions of different parts of the world. The Junior School boys were exposed to Asian cultures through their Japanese lessons in the lower years and through their Chinese lessons in Years 5 and 6. The Year 7 boys became aware of the rich cultural differences between the languages offered at BGS as they experienced four different languages over the course of one year. In Chinese, Years 8 and Year 9 students welcomed a martial arts instructor, Chen Yuan Xin, who introduced them to the philosophy and rigour of this practice. The Senior School boys were fortunate enough to travel to China and to be immersed in the Chinese culture. In French, the Middle School students enjoyed the very French Monsieur Crèpes, who cooked them pancakes from his trailer. In the Senior School, the boys had the opportunity to take part in French conversation afternoons hosted by Melbourne Grammar and BGS, with students from Firbank Girls’ Grammar, Shelford Girls’ Grammar and St Michael’s Grammar.

We congratulate Jay Jay Zhu (Year 10), who won the first prize in the Year 9–10 category. The students also took part in origami and calligraphy for Hiroshima events. In Latin, the students discovered parts of Roman history and learnt about the Roman political system. They also found out about the lives of different emperors and the evolution of several cities under the Roman Empire. Learning a foreign language comes with its challenges and rewards, but is also the best way to become an open-minded and understanding individual. It broadens the mind and changes the way we see the world.

These included the Firbank Grammar and BGS Combined Book Club, Makerspace sessions, the Expanding the Possibilities program (ETP), Library Lovers’ Day, Where’s Wally Day, ANZAC Day, Anne Frank Day, Sir David Attenborough Day, NAIDOC Week, Science Week, Game of Loans (GOL)* and Book Week. The highlight of this year was the GOL wider reading program. This program is designed to encourage the boys to compete against each other through their reading. There was a real buzz about the School as boys tried to persuade teachers to read for their Tutor Groups, came into the Library for borrowing and reading sessions, and frequently compared how many books they had read. (It’s true – boys really do love competition!) The winning Tutor Group was 7 Hancock, who received the Game of Loans Trophy Cup and shared a pizza lunch to celebrate. The Middle Years Library would like to thank Paul Stewart for the wonderful wall mural he painted over many days as his own iDesign project. The artwork takes students and staff on a journey back through their most loved novels and stories.

SENIOR SCHOOL The Senior Library remains a popular and busy venue for private study during class time, and at recess and lunchtime. The new Library Committee, comprising eight members, helped us organise events and programs. Activities included chess, Library Lovers’ Day, Book Club, LEGO Club and the Term 2 Trivia Quizzes. We also ran the SS Library Writing Competition, which was won by Kieran Farrell (Year 10). The main event in the Senior Library this year was Book Week, which incorporated many different activities. Students tried to ‘Match the Prefect to the book’. Author Phillip Gwynne spoke to English classes and in the Library about his life and career. We also had a ‘Where’s Wally Reading?’ competition, with teachers (disguised as Wally to a greater or lesser extent) reading in secret places around the School, and a House Quiz, which was a rowdy and robust competition won by Armstrong House. The final event was the Annual Teachers vs Students Debate, with the topic ‘That the school terms should be shorter’. The students took on the affirmative side in a vigorous discussion that adjudicator Kristen Molloy finally declared a draw. Many thanks to the students and teachers who helped with these events.

Celebrating success The Learning Support and Learning Strategies Departments in the Junior, Middle and Senior Schools play an integral role in ensuring the BGS boys are catered for and the BGS teachers are equipped with skills to support boys with specific learning needs. We provide various supports for the boys through withdrawal programs, inclass support and working with classroom teachers on assistance strategies. In the Junior School, the Learning Support Team consists of two enrichment teachers, two remedial support teachers, one EAL (English as an Additional Language) teacher and one teacher aide. The philosophy within the Junior School is to provide early intervention to ensure that the boys succeed with their schooling. The programs aim not only to provide academic support, but to ensure that the boys feel confident and experience success. The remedial classes take on explicit programs that focus on direct instruction, but are supplemented with engaging activities and educational games. EAL lessons focus on developing oral communication skills, building vocabulary, reading and writing. The boys also develop their cultural awareness through these classes. Enrichment classes extend the boys in the fields of mathematics, English and humanities. The boys are also engaged in enriching opportunities such as debating, chess, robotics, planks, games days, International Competitions and Assessment for Schools (ICAS) competitions and Maths Olympiad. Learning strategies in the Middle and Senior Schools celebrate all the boys' learning and successes, be it in English, mathematics, humanities, the arts, sport or social interconnectedness. Using multimodal methods of teaching, and preteaching literacy prior to regular lessons, the boys are prepared and ready to learn. In turn, the boys are well equipped to interact with their teachers, their peers and the learning tasks. Supporting the boys in this way leads to greater independence and achievement. Accordingly, we have seen remarkable growth in the boys this year. David Eggleston Junior School Learning Support Coordinator Daniel Brown Head of Learning Strategies (7–12)

MIDDLE SCHOOL Respectful Relationships At the beginning of 2017, BGS was nominated as a leading school in Respectful Relationships. As a leading school, we have been taking steps to improve our policies and upskill our staff to deliver the Respectful Relationships curriculum across the School. We are also mentoring and building partnerships with other schools to build a Respectful Relationships culture within and among schools. We will be commencing the rollout of BGS’s Respectful Relationships curriculum at the beginning of 2018. The curriculum supports our current PROSPER, Health and Physical Education program, with emphasis on the following key themes: emotional literacy, personal strengths, positive coping, problem solving, stress management, help seeking and positive relationships. The promotion of social and emotional skills in children and adolescents has been shown to improve health-related outcomes and wellbeing. It also reduces antisocial behaviours. We want our boys to build positive relationships with their teachers and peers so they feel safer and happier at school, have greater resilience and display positive social attitudes. BGS is hopeful that these positive relationships will lead to better health and academic outcomes for our boys. Danielle Wolff Middle School Psychologist, Program Coordinator

Positive masculinity BGS is proud to include numerous events that promote positive masculinity in the Middle School. These events celebrate and mark key milestones in the boys’ journey through adolescence and into manhood, and regularly involve Dr Arne Rubinstein. Our aim is to shift, develop and nurture the boys’ psychology using a shared approach to ensure that our boys leave their primary years’ way of thinking and embrace their transition into secondary school. Boys need a process to get through this stage to make sure they understand the roles and responsibilities expected of a young man. The whole Middle School community takes part in the traditional entry into Year 7 ritual in January. There are also many House activities held during the year. Many Year 8 boys and their dads attend the Father–Son Camp at Portsea. Likewise, many boys join their mums at the Mother and Son High Tea. In December, we host a Year 8 Breakfast, when the whole community celebrates the boys’ time in the Middle School before they commence their promotions classes in the Senior School. It is vital that any ritual or rite of passage is done at the right time, in a safe manner and with the utmost respect and honour for the boys. For our entire human history, a concerted effort has been needed to shift boys into good, strong and responsible men… More than marriage, or funerals, or any other ritual, training boys to be men has been at the core of the community life of every society since the dawn of time. –Steve Biddulph, in his Foreword to Dr Arne Rubinstein’s The Making of Men (2013) Travis Hopgood Deputy Head – Middle School

I would gladly spend years getting word of him, even third- or fourth-hand. –Rumi Boyhood is a precious time in a man’s life – the time he spends with his friends, making things, discovering his talents and enjoying the freedoms of youth. But so often in today’s world, we see and hear about what is not great about being a boy or a young man. At Brighton Grammar, we believe that childhood and early adulthood should be full of positive and engaging examples, stories, rituals and practices to develop a wholesome individual. One of the benefits of an all-boys’ school is the opportunities we can offer our students to explore what it is to be a man of character, experience and wisdom.

BGS staff members shared their experience and knowledge at the International Boys' School Coalition conference in Baltimore in June.
t n e m p o l e v e D f Staf The quality of a school cannot exceed the quality of its teachers. As a learning community, teachers must be examples of continuous learning with a specific focus on improving their classroom practice. We have a professional responsibility to identify areas for our own improvement, to learn new skills and to reflect on the way we teach. This results in the highest quality of teaching in classrooms and the best experience for the boys. At BGS, and driven by the Crowther Centre, we continue to use the evidence-based teaching model by employing a variety of programs. These include goal setting, coaching, peer workshops, collaborative teams and video feedback. As a result, our staff have become leaders in teacher learning, and a number of staff have been asked to share our programs and expertise at national and international conferences.

Leaders within in the School and instructional coaches are valuable resources for our teachers. They offer support inside and outside the classroom to refine current practice and develop new teaching strategies. As well as using current best practice, we are exploring new options for teacher development. For example, a pilot program using 360-degree cameras and virtual reality headsets has helped teachers understand how it feels to be a student in their class. We are also developing partnerships with the University of Melbourne Graduate School of Education and the University of Kansas to ensure access to the best staff learning opportunities. Our goal as educators is to create an environment for boys to excel in all areas – being, learning, creating and playing. We will continue to reflect on our practices to ensure we provide our boys with an outstanding educational experience. Mark Dowley
y a l p s i d n o S BG in Baltimore Joanne Davies (Teaching and Learning Coordinator, Junior School) and Raelene Plozza (Literacy Coach, Prep–Year 8) presented a workshop at the International Boys’ Schools Coalition (IBSC) conference in Baltimore in June.
Melbourne Graduate School of Education.
The IBSC, of which BGS is a member school, is a not-for-profit organisation ‘dedicated to enhancing the education, wellbeing and development of boys worldwide’. The theme of this year’s conference was ‘Beyond innovation: creativity, discovery and engagement’. Joanne and Raelene’s workshop, called ‘A coaching approach to staff professional learning’, discussed the latest research into instructional coaching for teachers, and how this can improve practice. Coaches help teachers to move through a cycle of goal setting, learning, observation, data collection and reflection. Instructional coaches bring a level of expertise to the coaching relationship. The workshop used BGS as an illustration of how coaching can improve instructional practice and staff collaboration to improve student learning outcomes. It was extremely well received, with many delegates asking questions afterwards about BGS practice.
BGS teachers must be examples of continuous learning.
This professional development was funded by the BGS teachers’ Reward and Recognition program. Last year, Joanne and Raelene won awards for their outstanding contribution to the School’s teaching. They are excited about the learning opportunities the conference provided them in their respective roles at BGS.

s e i t i v i t c A d n a s Program Every year, BGS students engage in a diverse range of co-curricular programs and activities. This year has been no exception, with an overwhelming number of opportunities on offer. These opportunities are designed to complement the boys’ curricular program, providing a platform for them to extend their formal learning experiences through activities such as creating the School production, representing their peers in the Student Council, and organising and leading wholeSchool fundraising events. The activities remain a critical component of the boys’ overall development and foster their understanding of how to be creative, how to play, how to learn and how to care – the four archetypes that we have introduced to the boys to remind them of the different parts of their character.

We continue to work in partnership with our sister school Firbank Grammar. In particular, three spectacular productions captured our imaginations at junior, middle and senior levels. Boys have competed and had success in chess and debating. We were also treated to a number of musical delights.

The production process began with Year 6 students from both schools participating in activities to get to know one another, before venturing to the Dendy Cinemas to watch Disney’s film version of Beauty and the Beast. Rehearsals began with the year level split into Enchanted Objects and Villagers; lead roles rehearsed outside of school hours. By the end of Term 3, the 130 students and staff had worked together, with the support of our amazing parent costume committee, to produce a colourful spectacular filled with extraordinary acting. The performance garnered great reviews, but the most impactful came from our Year 5 students: ‘We can’t wait until it’s our turn next year!’ Jared Furtado Head of Choral and Coordinator Junior School Music

Camp Rock was brought to life in this year’s combined BGS and Firbank Middle School Production. The Disney musical full of lighthearted tunes had the audience’s feet tapping all night. The large cast of 71 students highlighted the importance of inclusiveness through the arts and developed the boys’ performance, expressive and interpersonal skills. New friendships were made and new talents uncovered. Every student involved worked extremely hard and contributed to the show’s success. The lead roles were captivating and energetically supported by the ensemble. This show would not have been possible without the support of the Camp Rock Production Team as well as the commitment shown by Brighton Grammar, Firbank Grammar and the wider community.

N O I T C U D O R P L O O H C S R O I N E S E D N O L B LEGALLY Legally Blonde is a sassy, witty and fun-hearted show that our senior guys, along with the senior gals from Firbank, took to with zest to serve up another memorable production. Under the direction of Merryn Anstee (Firbank Head of Drama), this show lived up to the hype, with all the panache, pink chic and a little bit of kitsch to give every audience a rib-tickling experience. Captain of Drama Steven Alesi was wonderful as the evil dark lord of the law Professor Callahan, while Ned Wright-Smith, Captain of Music, played the white knight, Emmett Richmond, who comes to the rescue of the stylish Elle, Stevie-Lou Answerth. With so many boys involved in cameo roles, the ensemble and the production crew, Legally Blonde was a powerful class action! All the students involved are to be applauded for their dedication, commitment and resilience as they

managed to balance the intensive rehearsals with their academic studies, family duties and other commitments. Once again, the musical production provided the students with an opportunity to represent themselves differently from on the sports field and gave them a unique voluntary expressive claim. The show left everyone involved feeling the way they should after a school production – a little pink in the cheeks with joy. So boys, don’t wait until Year 12 or a subpoena to get involved in a school production! Just ask the boys who have participated in previous productions and they’ll tell you how much fun they had expressing themselves in a different way. Who knows – it might even help you find your ‘signature colour’! Myles Collins Head of Drama and Production
As a Year 11 boy, I was too scared to speak in front of my English class. And yet, one year later, I was able to speak confidently on stage. This is because of my first Senior School production: Legally Blonde. It forced me to step outside of my comfort zone and was an amazing experience that made me a more confident person. From walking into the first rehearsals till the ending of the final show, I felt like a changed person. I was now able to do something that I had always wanted to do but had been previously too afraid. So, I would highly encourage anyone who is holding back or scared to just audition for next year’s production and see what happens! Lachie McCormack Legally Blonde actor, Year 12

An important part of every BGS boy’s experience is the opportunity to collaborate with his peers at our sister school, Firbank Grammar. A number of opportunities are provided throughout the calendar year for secondary boys to engage in different activities with Firbank students, including Book Club, debating, Philosophy Colloquium, dance classes and the social. A highlight of the program is the combined activity day, hosted this year by Firbank. Our Year 7 cohort were treated to a history lesson followed by a historical walk around the local Brighton area to look at various historical landmarks and sites. The day was rounded off by a series of physical and mental challenges, with the boys and girls working together and against each other in activities ranging from Scattergories to tent building. These activity days offer students at both schools a great opportunity to bond, and continue to strengthen the link between the schools.

We continued to nurture the partnership between BGS and Firbank during 2017. Collaboration between the two schools fosters our commitment to provide opportunities for the boys to interact positively with girls. In Term 3, the ELC boys walked over to the Firbank ELC to spend time with the girls and have morning tea together. They were also invited to attend the dress rehearsal of Beauty and the Beast Jr performed by BGS and Firbank Year 6 students. Lower primary students met a number of times during the year, participating in problem-solving and playbased tasks. A combined visit to the zoo in Term 4 was an exciting highlight for the Prep boys. Tynker Time, an imaginative tournament and a round robin of tabloid activities allowed time for great interaction and invaluable learning experiences for middle primary students. Forging ongoing friendships and encouraging respectful relationships is a focus in upper primary year levels. The Year 5 exchanges included bush dancing, technology, drama, art and sport.

Chess The engagement with chess continues to increase at BGS, with a large program throughout the year giving opportunities for play at all levels. We hosted five tournaments during 2017, including the State Finals for both Chess Victoria and Chess Kids, positioning BGS as a premier state venue for chess. Our teams at Junior School, Middle School and Senior School all qualified for the finals, and the Senior School team placed an exceptional 3rd in the Chess Kids Open Secondary final. Our best players on the day were Captain of Chess Sasha Parsons and Marcus Ang (both Year 12), with great contributions from David Lawlor (Year 12), Victor Jakobus (Year 11) and Lane Donohue (Year 7). Lane also qualified for the Middle Years State Final, where he and David Yuan (Year 7) helped take out 8th place in a tough competition. For the casual players, we ran lunchtime chess sessions every Friday in both Middle School and Senior School, during which internationally noted chess experts discussed strategy and played games with the boys. We ran a similar program in the Junior School to ensure that the BGS Chess future looks bright. Andrew Barr Head of Chess

Outdoor n o i t a c u d E It’s been a big year in the BGS Outdoor Education Department. Some exciting changes are in the wings, which have their roots in the experiences of and feedback from boys, parents and teachers during 2017. Faces have changed in the Outdoor Education office. The new team consists of James Hilditch, Nathan O’Malley (Deputy Head) and me (David Gemmell). We look forward to continuing the good work and solid outdoor education sequence built by our predecessors over the past few years. In every program we deliver, we incorporate elements of the Schoolwide philosophy of creating, being, learning and playing. From a front yard campsite in the ELC to sea kayaking on the Bay, educating outdoors is integrated into how BGS teaches boys – on and off campus. The Big Fella Year 12 Leadership Conference kicked off our year while capping off the Outdoor Education sequence for our 2017 graduating class. Over one massive day, the Year 12s, alongside Senior School staff, hiked their way to the summit of Victoria’s tallest mountain, Mouth Bogong, as a visceral metaphor for all they have been through and all they will go through to complete their Brighton Grammar schooling.

Now in its second year, the Year 11 Outdoor Education Leadership Program (OELP) increased participation from 27 boys in 2016 to 38 in 2017. This program is a long lesson in servant leadership, with members asked to make a demanding commitment. Yet the rewards at the end of the year are immense, for the
Year 11 boys as well as the younger boys with whom they interact, and the teachers. The greatest reward is in the passing on of knowledge, skills and the BGS culture from older men to younger men all the way down to a Year 3 boy.

the foundation of the BGS Outdoor Education curriculum. This year, the Year 10s took part in one of the most epic winter ski programs BGS has ever run! The environment threw just about everything at the group, from blizzards and a flu epidemic to high winds and freezing temperatures. In true Tonner form, our boys persisted and were rewarded with some of the best skiing conditions Australia has seen in a long time. The Year 9 Great Southwest Journey lived up to its reputation, initiating the boys into the Sea Change program and Senior School Outdoor Education with a blast. We are immensely proud of the effort each of the boys put into completing this journey in 2017, and I’m pretty sure they are too.

The Year 7 students undertook a journey in the Great Otways National Park. With the best of Victoria’s coastal landscape as a backdrop, the boys had time to get to know new and old classmates a little better, and to gain a taste for the Outdoor Education program that awaits them over the next few years. For the Year 8 Grampians program, which extends on the skills learnt in Year 7, the boys plan their own menus and self-cater. As staff, we allow some mistakes in the planning and delivery of the boys’ food choices – for experiential education and making mistakes are the best teachers – but we work hard to facilitate their learning so that similar mistakes aren’t replicated in future years. The warmth of a campfire and great conversation can make even burnt rice palatable!
The most enthusiastic and energetic of the boys don’t miss out on Outdoor Education experiences at BGS. The Outdoor Education team supports the amazing work of our early years teachers by helping out with naturebased play and activities in the green urban landscape around the Bay, encouraging the students to have FUNN (Functional Understanding Not Necessary) in the outdoors. By introducing the outdoors as a safe and entertaining place to learn as early as possible, we are setting the foundations for our future Outdoor Education programs. Over the Junior School years, we slowly increase the time spent away from home for Outdoor Education programs, while keeping the activities fun and engaging. From Healesville Sanctuary and the largest flying fox
ride in Victoria to the Howqua River and spending a night out on an island in tents, we make the most of these introductory years by engaging the boys’ curiosity and starting to develop self-management skills in the outdoors. BGS is one of the few independent schools in the state that can claim an ELC to Year 12 sequential Outdoor Education program that builds upon the skills, experiences and activities embedded into the journeys we take. How we travel through landscapes on Outdoor Education programs is where the real value lies … not how hard or easy we find it, not where we end up or how far we travelled. The journey is far more important than the destination. David Gemmell Head of Outdoor Education GRAMMARIAN 2017

e g n a h c Sea Sea Change, the Year 9 experiential learning program, provided many highlights for the boys during 2017. The boys spent a minimum of four weeks beyond the classroom during various program activities spread across the year. All were designed to challenge the boys, but also to encourage them to grow, and to help them develop into good men. The boys began the year with the Great South West Journey (GSWJ). The GSWJ has quickly become recognised as a tough challenge, but an incredibly rewarding one. Over the course of 12 days, the boys, in groups of 13 or 14, travel approximately 250 kilometres through the south-western region of Victoria. In 2017, the boys rode mountain bikes through Portland and the Cobboboonee Forest, canoed down the Glenelg River and walked the beach from Nelson to Cape Bridgewater. They camped along the way and prepared their own meals throughout. Almost every boy successfully completed the journey and all were welcomed back to BGS and acknowledged for what they had achieved. Sea Change also asks the boys to select from a range of options, categorised as ‘Service’ or ‘Coastal’. ‘Service’ programs included assisting at the Martyr’s School in Papua New Guinea. Other boys travelled to Cairns, then across Cape York to the Indigenous community of Pormpuraaw; they spent a week in the community and assisting at the local school. Two groups spent time working with an Artist in Residence,

Ashley Ronning, at the Berendale School in Hampton, working alongside Berendale students on shared artistic projects. Another two groups undertook the ‘Service Melbourne’ program, to ‘find out’ and ‘help out’ at places including Urban Seed, the Salvation Army, the Big Issue and the Red Cross. Within the ‘Coastal’ options, boys had the opportunity to surf, sea kayak and mountain bike during a week based at Anglesea. Some boys travelled further afield, with a Marine Biology trip investigating the health of the Great Barrier Reef, another two groups learning to scuba dive off Tweed Heads, and another riding mountain bikes through the Cairns hinterland to finish on the beach at Port Douglas. These were all amazing opportunities that both challenged and rewarded the boys. Special thanks to the boys for the way they embraced Sea Change, to the parents for placing such trust in the program, to the external providers who helped deliver the programs and to the staff who accompanied and led the boys through the programs. Sea Change has always sought to engage the boys and to encourage them to grow and develop. We are very proud of the Sea Change program, and all who have been involved, and we look forward to building upon the strengths of the program in the future. Peter Shepard Head of Sea Change

The String Program in Years 3 and 4 continues to produce some outstanding orchestral players and the Wilson House String Orchestra has grown to almost 70 players this year. The Band Program involves all new students to the Junior School in Years 5 and 6, and is developing the performance skills of our boys earlier, assisting to create a higher standard of playing in our more senior groups.

GRAMMARIAN 2017
The main ensembles at both the Senior and Junior Schools participated in their annual music camps at Rutherford Park, assisting them to develop the skills of ensemble playing in a more concentrated setting. The equivalent of a term’s worth of rehearsals are undertaken at the camp, so this event is invaluable in the development of the participating groups. Junior students in the three premier ensembles showed off their hard work in the Semester 1 Choral and Instrumental Concert. Years 7 to 12 showcased their talents at the traditional Orchestral, Guitar and Choral Concert, as well as the Wind, Brass and Percussion Concert, all in the beautiful setting of St Andrew’s Church. This was followed in Semester 2 by the St Andrew’s Jazz Sunday and the grand performance at the Melbourne Recital Centre. The Carols Service in December was again a highlight and is a truly special way to celebrate the festive season.
All of our students perform in ensembles; however, some may not often get the opportunity to practise their craft as a solo performer. Thus, in addition to our large concert events, there were numerous opportunities for our soloists to shine at lunchtime concerts, assemblies, the Guitar and Percussion Concert, and the piano, woodwind and Middle School soirées.
Special Performances The Senior Big Band and Intermediate Stage Band travelled to Mount Gambier in South Australia to participate in the Generations in Jazz Festival. The festival involved 4750 students from 125 schools in over 305 ensembles participating in various divisions. The Senior Big Band, under the direction of Jamie Ransome, gained a top 10 finish against 24 bands in their division – a fantastic effort. This is the third year in a row that the group has finished in the top 10. The Intermediate Stage Band, under the direction of Kurt Abell, were participating for the first time in this event and did a great job, finishing 16th in their division.

There were 54 bands in our division and Steven was selected as the best vibraphone player. This is a first for BGS at Generations – congratulations to Steven on this amazing achievement. The Senior String quartet performed for the Prime Minister, the Hon. Malcolm Turnbull, at an important Bayside event in the Semester 1 holidays. The Prime Minister took the time to listen to the boys perform and talked to them at the end of their performance, congratulating them on the high quality of their musicianship. After achieving second place in the American Protégé International Piano and Strings Competition, Zac Shieh (Year 6) was invited to perform at the prestigious Carnegie Hall, New York, in April. Zac enjoyed hearing the sound his cello produced in a world-class auditorium, as well as chatting with other performers from all over the world, gaining an insight into their experience and enjoyment of music.
Melbourne Recital Centre Concert On the evening of Tuesday 5 September, the BGS Music Department, in conjunction with Firbank Grammar School, presented molto crescendo at the Melbourne Recital Centre. This combined concert occurs every three years and the evening was a spectacular event. Students from Years 7 to 12 presented a variety of items, from concert bands, big bands, choirs, string ensembles and guitar ensembles to featured soloists, including Year 12 student Julian Ou performing the first movement from Elgar’s famous Cello Concerto Op. 85 with the full Senior Symphony Orchestra. The Finale involved over 240 students performing ‘O Fortuna’ from Carl Orff’s epic work Carmina Burana, and was a musically inspiring performance. Congratulations to all staff and students involved; they worked hard over a number of months to prepare for the performance. The evening was evidence of the high-performance learning community created within the Music Department. I would like to acknowledge the efforts and support given to me by Jared Furtado (Head of Choral and Wilson House Music Coordinator) and Anna Watson (Music Administrator), as well as the 30 music staff who are a part of our department. The Music Department is an extremely busy place and we are very lucky to have so many talented and dedicated music teachers at BGS. As the year comes to a close, I would like to thank the Senior student leaders for their time and contributions to music – in particular, Ned Wright-Smith (Captain of Music), and Julian Ou and Steven Alesi (Vice Captains of Music), who have been role models to many of the boys through their high-level of performance, as well as their leadership, enthusiasm and dedication to the program. Thanks also to the ensemble leaders for their contributions. Finally, to all Year 12 students, thank you for your contribution to the musical life of Brighton Grammar over many years; we wish you well in your future endeavours. Jamie Ransome Director of Music

L A R O CH The number of parents who report that their sons are singing in the shower and the car is increasing! Moving into the second year of the structured ELC to Year 8 compulsory year level Choral Program was an exciting challenge. It has been a year of consolidating aspects of the program that worked well in 2016 as well as implementing changes to enhance the program. From our ELC sing-a-long class through to the more technically detailed compulsory program in Year 8, the Choral staff – Jeremy Martin, Nina Sofo, Kurt Abell, Frances Walker and Isaac Mouskovias – have ensured that material complements the classroom music programs of each year level. This has included incorporating contemporary, classical, musical theatre and Australian repertoire while covering the concepts of rhythm, harmony, sight-singing and aural skills. With more boys than ever participating in co-curricular choral activities, the abilities of Borwick House Choir, Middle School Choir and Senior Choir members to match pitch, learn and deliver harmony lines, develop projection and tone, and perform confidently have risen sharply. Performances over the year include special Chapel services, assemblies, the Melbourne Recital Centre Concert, speech nights and the annual carols services. We are looking forward to developing the Choral Program further in 2018, with the highlight being the biannual Choral Concert. Jared Furtado Head of Choral and Coordinator, Junior School Music

Representation of the student voice has always been an important pillar in the student leadership model across the Middle and Senior Schools. Nominated representatives of the student body meet regularly to discuss their peers’ ideas and issues. This year, under the new student leadership model, the Student Wellbeing Committee (SWC) has been overseen by the ViceCaptain of Culture, Oliver Barden. Oliver has attended Council meetings, representing the Head of Senior School, and tabled ideas and initiatives – including a review of, and subsequent amendment to, the haircut policy! Captained by Alex Adams, with Callum Drake and Kevin Wang as Vice-Captains, the SWC has continued to raise the issues important to the boys.

MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENT VOICE The Middle School Student Voice exists to improve life and wellbeing for boys in the Middle School and the community. Interested boys were invited to submit a letter of application, identifying why they wanted to get involved in the Student Voice and what they would do in their role.

d n a g n i Debat g n i k a e p Public S It has been another busy and rewarding year of debating and public speaking. Approximately 80 Senior School students and 30 Middle School students enjoyed a variety of activities and events across the School. The boys were engaged and challenged by a number of interesting and thought-provoking topics that prompted them to build their public-speaking skills and confidence. Some of the highlights of this year include: • one of our C-Grade teams (Harry Barden, Patrick Liddle, Curtis Wilson, Lionel Wang and Josh Sum – all Year 10) placing at the top of the Brighton region in the DAV competition and proceeding to playoffs • Middle School students stepping out of their comfort zone to participate enthusiastically in the Brighton region DAV competition • the teacher versus student debate in the Senior School Library during Book Week • the stimulating topics for the public speaking competitions, including ‘My worst nightmare’ and ‘If I ruled the world’ • the introduction of Year 8 inter-class debating • the good-natured rivalry with Firbank during the interschool Middle School debating competition. Many of the boys achieved best speaker awards during the Senior and Junior DAV interschool competitions. Our internal public speaking competitions also attracted a high number of students in 2017. The subjects of the speeches were varied and impressive – for example, ‘G’day North Korea’ and ‘Voluntary euthanasia should be legalised’. The 2017 senior winner was David Lawlor (Year 12), who spoke on ‘Why the world needs global warming’. The intermediate winner was Harry Barden (Year 10). Paula Donnelly Coordinator of Debating 7–12

t c e j o r P Legacy “Higher purpose leads to higher performance and successful change begins with a values-based, vision-led, purpose driven mindset – and ends without it.” James Kerr, Legacy A pilot program, the Legacy Project, was introduced in 2017. The program’s purpose is to develop student leadership and culture at BGS and we are working in conjunction with James Kerr, business consultant and author of the global bestseller Legacy: What the All Blacks Can Teach Us About the Business of Life.
School’s culture of belonging, as well as representing hopes and ambitions. Initially, the trunks held a semester goal. However, in Term 3, each student wrote down a limiting pattern or belief that they wanted to let go of, and placed these notes in the trunks. On the final day of the term, the boys burned the notes in a powerful symbolic act.
From the outset at Big Fella Camp, the student leadership group set an agenda based on the principles of high performance. Student-led assemblies and guest speakers, including Trevor Hendy (Australian Ironman Champion), Nick Maxwell (former Collingwood FC premiership captain) and Holly Ransom (CEO of Emergent), focused on messages of change and excellence.
The Senior boys took the initiative to operationalise the School’s strategy areas – of learning, being, creating and playing – through four archetypes: magician, warrior, caregiver and sage. Each archetype represents a part of every boy’s character and the boys are using them as reminders of how they can learn about and develop different parts of themselves.
Chantology and rituals, such as the use of the four trunks at the base of the Oak, have continued to strengthen the

F O S E T I R PASSAGE During 2017, the first ever BGS Year 10 Rites of Passage (RoP) program was delivered in close association with Dr Arne Rubinstein, author of the Making of Men, and designer and key facilitator of hundreds of Rites of Passage experiences for young men over the past 20 years. The RoP is the pinnacle of the Making of Men program and expands on the work Dr Rubinstein is doing across the School. Prior to delivery of the program, a significant number of Senior School staff were given the opportunity to participate in a three-day residential training course in the RoP. This was a powerful and unifying experience for the staff and gave them some insight into what the boys would experience at their RoP. It also helped to embed the RoP into staff language and experience, and will stand us, as a community, in good stead for the RoP program in the years ahead. Special thanks to all staff who were able to be there. In August, a group of 16 boys and their fathers elected to be involved in the first BGS RoP program, which took place in the hinterland near Mullumbimby in northern NSW. Under the guidance of Dr Rubinstein and his team, with Dr Ray Swann and myself as representatives of the BGS community, the boys undertook some real, raw and honest conversations covering a wide variety of topics. Some deep thinking and acceptance of challenge was required of the boys as they began their transition into young men. In the beautiful, if rustic, surrounds, these 16 young men and their fathers deepened their bonds and established new connections across the group, which will help support their growth and underpin their success in the future. Upon their return to BGS, the boys were celebrated and acknowledged as young men by their families and the wider community. It is anticipated that the 2018 RoP program will be huge in comparison. However, the 2017 RoP was a unique opportunity, embraced by a number of families, and will likely have a profound impact on the Brighton community for years to come.

Duke of d r a w A s ’ h g r u b n Edi The Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award is an internationally recognised program that is revered worldwide. its awardees demonstrate certain characteristics. Participation in the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award program tells a story to the wider community: You didn’t wait for your break; you made it happen for yourself. You have not let a fear of failure or a fear of comparison or a fear of judgement stop you from doing the things that will make you great – for often it is those activities that are difficult, uncomfortable and scary that pay off in the long run. Participants are required to complete four sections at each level: Service, Skill, Physical Recreation and Adventurous Journey.

Not only did the new culture captivate our minds, but our tastebuds were also taken on a journey by the variety of local cuisines discovered in each town and city, from delicious crunchyskinned duck to ‘interesting’ street food in the form of scorpions and other bugs. In Beijing, we enjoyed spending two days hiking on the Great Wall, but the real highlight was the shopping and ‘optimistic’ haggling skills we quickly developed. The rich history in Xian was evident at the 2000-year-old Terracotta Warriors. After a quick stop in Shanghai, we travelled at over 300km/h by train to Hangzhou, where we were to spend our second week attending Guancheng Middle School. Our language skills were tested as we attended classes on the culture of Chinese tea and art, martial arts, IT and science. Our fitness and coordination were also challenged during morning exercises and lunchtime soccer games. Even after such a short time, it was difficult to say goodbye to our hosts and classmates.

During the first week of the midyear holidays, 58 boys headed to Tasmania for the fourth running of the Middle School Football Tour. While stationed in Hobart for the five-day tour, football took centre stage, with games against Hutchins School and St Virgil’s College, and a visit to the iconic Bellerive Oval. A good deal of fun was also had at MONA and its surrounds, Zone 3 Laser Games and Time Zone, and atop Mt Wellington. Historic Port Arthur provided a fascinating day trip. Since it first ran in 2004, this trip has provided boys from both Years 7 and 8 the chance to bond during their first years of competitive APS football. This year was no different. Witnessing the boys enjoying each other’s company under the BGS banner, I feel optimistic about the upcoming footy seasons. Thanks must go to staff Robert Shaw, Kathryn Counihan, Louise Carroll and Travis Hopgood, and Year 7 parents Chris Ryan and Matthew Toms, for their time, dedication and care of the boys while we were away.

In its ninth year, this exchange plays an important role in building an understanding of and respect for Indigenous culture. It also includes a service component, with the BGS and Firbank students assisting the Milikapiti teachers and students in their classrooms.
A highpoint of the trip was the Jilamara Cultural Centre, where we were exposed to the rich history, customs and art of the Tiwi peoples.
Flying in to Melville Island on a small charter flight raised the nerves of the Melbourne kids, but when we landed, we were greeted by the shouts of Milikapiti students welcoming us, and the nerves quickly dissipated.

JUNIOR E S U O H L O O SCH N O I T I T E P M CO In the Junior School, House competitions incorporate a ‘whole school’ approach, involving events and activities across a range of curriculum areas and levels. Boys participate in House competitions in the following areas: General Knowledge, Cross Country, Public Speaking, Athletics, Chess/Checkers, Swimming, Maths, Tabloid Sports, Spelling, Writing and Poetry. Weekly and term winners are also determined from points gained in class and specialist lessons. Houses compete for the Pemberton Shield, an award named after Mr R. L. Pemberton in recognition of his outstanding contribution and service to the life of Brighton Grammar School as a student, Old Boy (1971) and teacher. Involvement in House activities provides valuable opportunities for boys to learn some of life’s important skills and understandings from each other, including:
• sportsmanship and playing by the rules • respect for team mates, the opposition and officials • team work, cooperation and getting along with others • good decision-making – making the right choices, and understanding the consequences associated with those choices and the impact they may have on others • responsibility – for yourself and your team mates • pride in your performance – striving always to do your best • appropriate standards of behaviour in various settings. Older boys take on a strong leadership role, encouraging and guiding the younger boys. House competition provides motivation for the boys to work together and strive towards a common goal. A strong sense of School spirit is evident. Dean Bryan Deputy Head of Junior School

e s u o H L O O H C S E L D MID l a r o t s a p s e i t i v i act To maintain House tradition, boys are placed in the same House as their brother or father. Boys represent the House in a variety of sporting, fundraising, academic and other competitions that culminate in the awarding of the House Championship to the most successful House. Boys wear their House badge on their blazer, and remain in their House until the completion of their Secondary Schooling. The MS House merit system ensures a respectful learning environment that is safe, positive and supportive for all boys. It is strongly held that every boy in the Middle School has the right to be secure and to be respected. Boys are taught to care for themselves and their classmates, and to accept their responsibility for making the School a happy place for everyone.

e s u o H L O O H C S E L D MID R r E e P p S s O o R r P p s e i t i v i t c a This is the third year that the ‘PROSPER’ program has been delivered in the Middle School, and it continues to evolve while remaining a central component of our Growth and Wellbeing program. All of the boys in Years 7 and 8 participate in PROSPER classes for a total of 90 minutes each week, and we are extremely fortunate to have the tranquil Wellbeing Centre on our doorstep. PROSPER is an acronym for Positive Emotions, Relationships, Outcomes, Strengths, Purpose, Engagement and Resilience, and the boys engage in a range of activities to explore these themes. The intention of the classes is to ensure that boys are equipped with social and emotional tools that enable them to flourish, live purposeful lives and manage adversity. The Year 7 program continues to focus on facets of wellbeing that promote a smooth transition to secondary schooling, while providing a kitbag of social and emotional skills. The boys explored emotions, building personal strengths, developing positive relationships, growth mindset, gratitude and resilience. In addition, they are involved in Peer Coaching, during which they are encouraged to set goals and plan a pathway with actions to achieve their targets. The final plank of the program is the MindUp mindfulness course, which develops their understanding and practice of mindfulness techniques. It is great to observe the stillness of the Learning Commons on a Wednesday morning as the boys undertake their core mindfulness practice. In the Year 8 PROSPER program the boys explore more sophisticated wellbeing notions, including happiness and positive purpose in their lives, developing strengths and aspects of self. In the latter part of the year, the focus shifts to study skills, stress management and resilience to

support the boys as they head towards formal assessments at the end of the year. This year, the boys were also introduced to the .b mindfulness program, with the aim of honing their skills in this area and promoting a deeper understanding and more regular practice. The Year 8 cohort also participate in Peer Coaching to promote regular goal-setting behaviour. All of the Middle School boys engaged very positively with the PROSPER program in 2017. The Weekly Reflection sheets indicate that they are accommodating the ideas and putting them into practice on a regular basis. Peter Furey Coordinator, Growth and Wellbeing (Middle School)

The House Trivia event, run separately for the year levels later in the year, produced a tie, with Armstrong and Crowther sharing the spoils. House Chess also went to Crowther, with Year 7s Toon Craps remaining undefeated throughout the tournament. In the Library, the inaugural ‘Game of Loans’ spectacular saw Hancock out-read their rivals. On the sporting front, Crowther claimed the combined 7–12 House Swimming event at MSAC, with the Year 7s and 8s swimming superbly.

N O X I D For Dixon House, 2017 has been a year full of enthusiasm and success. Whether it be through the House coming together and voting in the ‘Duke’ mascot to the Year 12s reaching the summit of Mt Bogong before any other House and the Dixon boys competing viciously in the streetball tournament, the keenness and willingness of all the boys to put their hands up and help out the House has been inspiring. House events with the Middle School boys – and swimming in particular – have highlighted the passion that the boys have for their House, irrespective of their year level. This passion has transcended into other areas of the School, with a multitude of Dixon boys excelling in the classroom as well as beyond. We received a commendable 3rd place in the Cock House Cup, but I have no doubt that the passion displayed by the boys for their House will manifest into even greater levels of success in the future.

R OF E It has been a very successful year for Rofe, even if our results didn’t reflect it in the Cock House results table. We were very competitive in most House activities, which was a goal of the House at the start of the year. The highlight of our Rofe year was certainly the streetball victory by the Year 11s and 12s. Although not a very tall team, we weren’t intimidated and our passion for the House carried us through. In front of a full house, we played a starstudded undefeated Dixon team and got over the line in a thriller. While some of our performances could have been better, the future for Rofe is looking good. The younger Senior School Rofe boys are creating a good culture, which will leave Rofe House in good stead for many years to come. Over the last couple of years, the House barbecue has become a more regular activity. Boys are thoroughly enjoying this chance to get to know their peers and teachers better. I would like to thank all the boys who volunteered their time in House swimming, athletics and many other activities. I would also like to thank Vicecaptains Callum Furey and Jack Carlson, who were very easy to work with throughout the year. It was a pleasure leading all the boys in 2017.

L O O H SC Another busy year for the boys in red. For me, 2017 shone a light on the tight year group that was the Year 12 School House boys. I think it is fair to say that the Year 12 boys who have been together since Year 9 Science class have stepped up to drive School House closer than ever as a group. The boys encouraged success not just in the pool or on the athletics track but also in areas that are not often measured. I was so proud to see the younger boys engaging with the role modelling from older boys in School House this year, especially in areas such as organisation, mature behaviour and just being a general mate around the quad. It is this connection that will turn boys into men, and I think that School House has come a long way in this regard. The enthusiasm throughout the House this year was outstanding, with all House events being easily filled with keen competitors. The connection that is growing in this House is something to be excited about because you can feel that Cock House Cup success is just around the corner. I would like to thank all the staff members and all boys who gave their best this year. I am sure the Year 11 group will go on to lead this great House on to bigger and better things in 2018.

academic and sporting. In some, Armstrong was immensely successful, such as a 1st place finish in athletics. Learning from past performances and efforts demonstrated earlier in the year by the boys, we played to our strengths in an effort to maximise our success. A poor swimming performance didn’t hinder our quest; in fact, it only spurred us on. In activities such as debating and the science quiz, Armstrong dominated. We are pleased by the efforts demonstrated year-round and, as a
leadership group, would like to wish Armstrong the best of luck in the years to come. Every Armstrong boy should feel encouraged to participate in as many House activities as possible – the opportunities are like no other. 2017 will be a year to remember for the Year 12 boys and the comradery of Armstrong House will be sorely missed.

R E H T CR O W The first big House event of the year was swimming. Crowther had won the last three years so the pressure was on. Of the senior boys, Year 12 Harry Hynes swam a courageous freestyle race, and Year 11s Charlie Hayes, Tristan Hutchins and Nick Hutchins made great contributions. Best swimmer for Year 9 was Charlie Lamont. In a joint meet with the Middle School, Crowther drew on huge efforts from our Year 8s, who won both their freestyle relay events. This, added to our Year 11A freestyle relay win and enabled Crowther to edge out Hancock to make it a ‘four-peat’ of House swimming championships. The Russell Waring Cup, inaugurated in 1926, will sit for another year in possession of Crowther House. The ‘Nitro-style’ House athletics events spanned three lunchtimes and the boys rallied together, knowing that a place in the top three would position us well for the remainder of the year. We knew our team wouldn’t be able to take out top spot, but the strong Crowther culture enabled us to take 3rd overall – a great achievement by the boys. Importantly, the Houses continued to make charity fundraising a focus in conjunction with athletics. For Crowther, money was raised for Will Murray’s rehabilitation by Matt Leadbeater, Harry Hynes and Archie Hynes, who sold (and soon sold out of!) confectionary.

Although always a highlight, this year, Crowther House Chapel was, in the words of many, “the best student-run Chapel or Assembly ever”. Jonty Leadbeater began the service by performing the Pink Floyd song ‘Wish You Were Here’, and students then used the song to contemplate decision-making and its consequences. Brad Marais read and interpreted Robert Frost’s famous poem ‘The Road Not Taken’, Simon Farrow provided a Biblical context, and Matt Speirs reflected on good and bad decisions he had made in his schooling. I concluded the service from a light-hearted angle. Throughout the remainder of the year, the Crowther boys performed consistently well in other sporting and academic events, including winning the Senior futsal soccer tournament as well as placing strongly in the science quiz. A House barbecue held at the end of Term 2 lifted the boys’ spirits for the holiday break as well as bringing together all the year levels, further developing the tightknit community and ‘family’ feel within Crowther House. The Year 12s, including Captain Sam Grose and Vice Captains
Xavier Pym and Simon Farrow, were determined to leave behind a legacy, including the core values of determination and leadership, to set up Crowther for the future. In an incredible year of great success, Crowther House took out the Cock House Cup, once again becoming the top House in the Senior School and regaining our assembly seats upstairs for next year. Mr Sainsbery’s outstanding organisation and leadership kept the boys in good stead for the year – a huge thanks goes to him as well as all boys in Years 9–12 who contributed to the outstanding accomplishments of Crowther in 2017.

K C O C HAN Being Hancock House Captain this year has been a privilege I will cherish forever. The opportunity to lead my peers and develop not only as a leader but as a mate is something I am eternally grateful for. This year, in my opinion, Hancock was stronger than ever before. We did not achieve our best result, as we finished 2nd in the Cock House Cup, but the bonding and community of Hancock excelled. I personally witnessed Year 12s helping Year 9s with homework and was astounded when a Year 10 boy had the courage to speak to me about his subject choices. Growing up in the Senior School, the thought of a Year 10 version of myself speaking to a Year 12 is daunting, but being a part of the cultivation of a culture where this is possible is something I will be proud of forever. I could not have done this without the help of my two Vice Captains, Jack Mason and Joe Micari. These boys, weighted by their own responsibilities, somehow managed to come together each week and help me with whatever I needed. Ultimately, none of the work that myself, Jack and Joe put in would mean anything if it wasn’t for the amazing Head of House, Meg Adem. Congratulations to all Hancock valedictorians, and I urge all of the boys in our footsteps to set the bar even higher than we have. Go Cockers! Oscar Donald Hancock House Captain

The Chaplain’s role is to develop and nurture the spiritual dimension of each boy, encouraging him to explore, ask probing questions and expand his spiritual horizons. Junior School Chapel occurs once a week at St Andrew’s Church. The aim of the service is to inspire boys to Christian living and principles, equipping them with the tools to live virtuous lives and empowering them to be well-rounded participants in the modern world.

The Chapel themes and addresses endeavour to align themselves with the values and themes being covered each week during the boys’ mindfulness and circle times. This ensures that the topics are engaging, relevant, meaningful and personally challenging. Qualities such as compassion, forgiveness, leadership, gratitude, friendship and love are some of the concepts covered during 2017. Weekly Religious Education classes provide an opportunity to unpack these concepts further, ensuring that boys develop emotionally, spiritually and intellectually, both individually and socially.

These prayers may not always be said, but the intention to engage with a mystery, to give thanks and to offer a joyful activity always rings true. The office of Chapel is a core event within the weekly calendar of the School; it is the veritable hub around which all things gravitate. This is true regardless of individual interpretation or perception. This is what it means to affirm God as that which is beyond individual whim or manipulation. Throughout the year, key events of the Christian story, and those of our national identity, are celebrated and honoured. Events such as Easter, ANZAC Day, Fathers’ Day and Mothers’ Day, and the commissioning of leaders, stand alongside the concerns raised by student leaders during House Chapel. Through these events, we acknowledge and proclaim who we are as a School and the values for which we stand. So we affirm that life in all its fullness is to be embraced with hope and respect.

PASTORAL CARE
g n i l l e s Coun The BGS Counselling Department has the registered psychologists who specialise in supporting children and young people to achieve academic success, psychological health, and social and emotional wellbeing.
We work directly with children and adolescents and their families who may be facing specific challenges, as well as providing some small-group programs that support the wellbeing and resilience of students with identified needs. Consulting with teachers in terms of effective behaviour management within the classroom is also a priority. The School psychologists work closely with external professionals and other organisations with which our students may be linked (for example, paediatricians, psychiatrists, family therapists, clinical psychologists). The Counselling Department organised a number of wellbeing events throughout the year. In particular, we recognised the National Day of Action Against Bullying and Violence, and RU OK? Day. The Junior and Middle School students engaged in various anti-bullying activities, with the focus on being an ‘upstander’ rather than a bystander.

The Middle School Wellbeing Committee handed out icypoles to students as a reminder to ‘put a freeze on bullying’. Earlier in Term 3, the Year 6 students attended a presentation by cybersafety expert Susan McLean. The presentation covered various topics, including: personal online safety; fact versus fiction with regards to popular sites for young people and how to minimise risk; misuse of mobile phones, digital devices and blogs (including legal consequences); being a good digital citizen; and how to deal with cyberbullying.

s t n e d u t s l a n o i Internat Once uncertain, Once confused, Once ‘lost’ in a foreign land Once, and still confronting, difficulties living in a new environment. As international students, here at Brighton Grammar, we grow, foster, and familiarise ourselves with our setting every day. For many years, international boys have arrived, joined in and graduated at BGS. Their footprints have shaped the School into a multicultural environment where all cultures and customs are respected. We have become one family, made up of Chinese, Japanese and French families – from a tiny seed to the mighty Oak. The International Committee, as well as the International Parents’ Support Group, has evolved into a body that fosters a smooth transition for all arrivals to this school community.
148
GRAMMARIAN 2017
Challenges for international students are many. Fortunately, BGS endeavours to make the process of arrival and settling in less daunting. International students have the support of the staff and, most importantly, the support of one another. The EAL teachers provide a range of support for the students, under the guidance of Jo Ellis. Maggie Lynch provides solutions for homestays, helps parents form new friendships, and also gives advice about subject selections, parent–teacher nights and many other activities. School Marshal Jason Bain’s dedication guarantees that there are no forms of racial discrimination present among the School body, and the House Tutors, Heads of House and others provide international students with a sense of belonging. This year, we were able to set up the first International Parents’ Fundraising Group. Via a dumpling sale during House Athletics, the group raised over $600 for the Robert
Valedictory dinner
Connor Dawes foundation. For many years, we have attempted to organise such activities, to grant international parents the opportunity to share time with the boys during a School fundraising activity, and to give them a sense of the warmth that draws the community together. Multiple parent gatherings were organised by Maggie Lynch this year to provide opportunities for new friendships and a smooth transition to life in this awesome country. In future years, interschool activities are on the agenda with our sister school, Firbank Grammar, to help international students broaden their horizons. As Captain of the International Students, I was often asked how long it took me to ‘integrate’ into the Australian school community. I responded that it may take a year to learn the basics of the English language and a few more to gain an appreciation of its complexities. But to fully fit in, it
requires all of us to adventure out of our comfort zones. For some fortunate ones, they found their talent in sport, music, chess. For some others, it might take them a bit longer to figure out that they are not going to take a bath – despite being told to bring ‘bathers’. However, ultimately, the School appreciates who we really are, champions our differences and recognises our vibrancies. Eventually, we will realise that all the time we spent together here at Brighton Grammar School was worthwhile. Faber est suae quisque fortunae. (Every man is the artisan of his own fortune.)

g n i l l e s n u o C r e e Car This was a year of change and renewal for Careers Services. The new Student Services area opened in Term 2, bringing together a number of different student support areas that were previously found in separate locations across the School. Student Services now encompasses general counselling, careers counselling, learning strategies, VCE information and the health centre, offering students a one-stop shop for various learning and pastoral needs. Another significant milestone in Careers was the launch of the BGS Student Careers Website: http:// studentcareers.brightongrammar.vic.edu.au/. The website became an integral part of the Morrisby Report feedback sessions for Year 10 students, who were encouraged to work through one of the features, the Career Investigator. This feature requires students to research three different career choices/occupations and record what they discover. The program then generates the student’s Action Plan Summary Report, which can be updated and modified as they progress through VCE. Year 11 students also became familiar with the website, using its tools to create resumés for this year’s Job Skills Workshop. Importantly, students do not require a log-in to access the website and can search a variety of information relating to tertiary courses, apprenticeships and careers.

School s ’ l a h s r a M report Boys tend to thrive in an environment where there is a high standard of discipline. One of my many roles as School Marshal is to oversee discipline at BGS. When I explain this, one of the first things most people ask is, “Are you the one that gives the boys detention?” I find that people often get the terms ‘discipline’ and ‘punishment’ confused. Punishment is the result of poor discipline. The flip side to this is that success is the result of strong discipline and we certainly have our share of success at BGS. We deserve this success because, as a school, we strive to maintain the high standards of discipline that we have set for ourselves. Boys tend to thrive in an environment where there is a high standard of discipline because they need boundaries and rules to regulate their behaviour – not because they are inherently ‘bad’ but because teenage boys in particular tend to struggle to find their place within a group. Discipline helps to level the playing field by bringing the group into some sort of alignment; this, in turn, creates a sense of a team that can become successful. I have called in over 6000 boys to examinations this year, and their demeanour and approach is evidence of the standards of discipline we have set. Next time I am asked whether I am the one that gives the boys detentions, I will answer, “Occasionally I might, but I would like to feel that I’ve also helped to oversee their success.” Jason Bain School Marshal

T R O P S L O O H C S R O JUNI It was another busy year of sport in the Junior School. As always, there was a strong emphasis on team, working together and striving towards a common goal. Boys in Prep to Year 6 competed together in the House Cross Country, Athletics and Tabloid Sports. Although we celebrated our champions, our focus was on giving your best. Boys of all abilities worked extremely hard to achieve their best possible results. Boys in Years 3 and 4 enjoyed their weekly involvement in Sport, with the chance to try out a wide variety of sports, as well as to compete against St Kevin’s College once a

term. These boys also participated in the House Swimming Carnival early in the year. The Years 5 and 6 boys made the most of the weekly interschool contests in APS Sport, applying themselves in training and games to best prepare them for their fixture. These boys also lead from the front in the House Swimming Carnival. We had many successes individually and as a team in 2017. A highlight was the performance of the junior teams in the State Relays. All three Junior School 4 x 100-m relay teams had qualified to compete and they trained extremely hard. The 10 Years boys ran brilliantly and, with unbelievable baton changes, charged home to win the gold medal
by almost a second. Jake Ring, Harrison Gibbins, Seb Naccarella, Edward Mitrevski and Luke Sexton (reserve) handled the pressure of their first SSV State Athletics Championships without a hiccough. The 11 Years team had their work cut out, but knew they were a chance for gold, if they could achieve clean baton changes. The ever-so-slight improvements in their changes from the heat took them to the lead and they were able to clinch gold in an incredible race. Cade Segar, Harry George, Elden Zeng, Will Stretch and Hugo Richey (reserve) combined composure with pure aggression to claim their first SSV State Athletics gold medal.
The 12/13 Years team looked like boys among men. With this age group spanning two years, the difference in size and strength between some of the competitors was stark. Justin Krok, Oliver Goodger, Matthew Hogg, Brayden Hope and Sam Heron (reserve) were thrilled to pull off an amazing run and claim bronze in an extremely fast final. Above all else, demonstrating sportsmanship, teamwork, good decision marking, pride in performance and appropriate standards of behaviour was the priority for the Brighton Grammar Junior School boys in Sport.

However, after a couple of training sessions involving learning the rules, assorted drills practising skills and mock match rotations we were ready to face our first APS opponents. The boys were divided into the Red and Blue teams, which were subject to changes each week. Overall, the two teams won the majority of their games this season. Through hard work, passion and teamwork it was obvious and pleasing to see all the boys grow in confidence, competence and ability, which in turn enabled them to enjoy their badminton experiences even more. Whether travelling or hosting matches at home, the boys displayed a willingness to give of their very best and admirable sportsmanship at all times and made BGS proud. Special mention must be made of the Most Outstanding Players, James Mannion (Red Team) and Andrew McGreggor (Blue Team) and the Best Team Players, Jerry Zheng (Red Team) and Alistair Liddle (Blue Team).

The 2016–2017 Middle School badminton season was a huge success. Led by Victor Luo and Oscar Lo, the Year 7 and 8 team proved a dominant force. Boys embraced this sport with professionalism and a sense of fun. The competition gave them wonderful insight into the tactics of the game. Each boy had times recorded throughout the season, and displayed constant improvement. In particular, the less experienced students managed to improve their personal best times week after week. After five rounds of competition, our team remains undefeated, with a majority of wins being by convincing margins. Grit, determination and sticking to a game plan helped the boys to a terrific victory. The boys’ passion, willingness to listen and desire to involve all their teammates made both teams a pleasure to coach. Congratulations to Harrison Svensen, Tony Ma, Victor Luo, Oscar Lo, Josh Foulds and Ryan Dang, who all received awards after extremely successful seasons.

SENIOR SCHOOL The popularity of badminton has been growing immensely at BGS. In 2017, a plethora of boys wanted to try out the sport and additional teams were formed. A strong foundation of players from all years looks good for the future of this competitive sport. In the top divisions, badminton has not been as successful as other sports at BGS; nonetheless, it is promising to have so many enthusiastic players. A number of veterans are returning to help coach and motivate these players, establishing pathways for them to succeed in future. Lachlan Foy (Year 12) Badminton Captain GRAMMARIAN 2017

Nate Stroud was the recipient of 6A Best Team Player for his exceptional organisation, sportsmanship and teamwork. Max Nannes was awarded 6B Most Outstanding Player for leading by example in his bowling, fielding, batting and attitude.

The 5 Blues players all made pleasing progress throughout the season, with Harry Pollock (Most Outstanding Player) and Hugo Richey (Best Team Player) providing strong leadership for their teammates.

MIDDLE School For the first time in many years, the Middle School Cricket Program fielded seven teams, with a fourth team introduced at Year 7 level. Despite being a short Term 1 season for the Year 7 boys, they adapted quickly to APS Saturday Sport and represented the School with great pride. Highlights of the season included a number of back-to-back 7C1 and 7C2 games on the Junior School Oval, during which the atmosphere was electric. The introduction of a post-game barbecue was well received. There was fierce competition for selection in the 7A side, which in turn resulted in a very strong 7B team. Both teams had their fair share of success, largely due to the boys’ attitude and persistence during weekly morning training sessions. Forty-two Year 8 boys returned for their second season of Middle School Cricket to represent the three sides entered. Off the back of a very strong 2016 campaign, the boys again did well with bat and ball across the 8A, 8B and 8C levels, despite injuries to key players during the season. The key feature of this year group is their closeness on and off the field; they take great pride in the GRAMMARIAN 2017

SENIOR School Seven Senior School teams played in the 2016/17 cricket season. Boys from Year 9 all the way through to Year 12 represented the School in the 1st XI. The team finished 5th overall with 6 wins, but could have finished much higher. The top-of-the-table clash with Scotch in the last round before Christmas was an example of our ability to fight through tough situations; however, the result was indicative of the missed opportunities throughout the season. Skipper Nathan Murphy led from the front brilliantly, scoring an amazing total of 746 runs. His hundred against Geelong College was a highlight of the season, among many for him. Jack Munnings scored a century against Caulfield Grammar, and Ben Pryor also had a fine season with the bat. Ned Bellmaine took 15 wickets in his debut season, leaping from the B team only two years earlier to lead our attack. Our seconds had an enigmatic season, often being in games before falling away quickly with the bat. Joe Macari led admirably under tough circumstances. The tremendous support of the magnificent Wiener-Moss Club was greatly appreciated throughout the season and makes for a unique community experience in BGS cricket. The 2016/17 season will be remembered with a tinge of sadness as it was the last official involvement for retiring Teacherin-Charge of Cricket, Gary McPhee. Gary was involved in BGS Cricket for over three decades. His passion and love for the game was evident and contagious. He was a trailblazer in initiating the first BGS United Kingdom Cricket Tour in 1989, a tour that still runs and provides lifelong experiences for our boys. His legacy and impact on BGS cricketers’ lives is immeasurable. Gary, whose humour will be greatly missed, always made his decisions “in the best interests of the boys”.

The competition is held in Term 1 at the excellent facilities of the Burwood Bowls Centre. The team comprised of Paris Tzitsoukis, Xavier Pym (captain), Jackson Warne, Mac Gray, Mac Parsons, Sebastian Williams and Will Spaer. We were
able to field two teams in the competition in both Divisions 1 and 2. The event was well supported by parents as well as by the greatest bowler of all time, Shane Warne. The Seconds won three games out of five to finish 4th and the Firsts won two games out of five to finish 5th. The teams played with great focus and, week by week, the improvement was significant. Lawn bowls is a highly technical and tactical sport and, although the season is only six weeks, the boys benefitted from experiencing a less traditional sport.

ROWING Rowing continues to provide boys with excellent experiences and, significantly, ones that they can take with them beyond BGS. Rowing in front of a crowd of 17,000 at the 150th Head of the River, Rowing Camp at Lake Jindabyne and competing at the National Championships are unique experiences. However, a crew such as the Year 10A boys, who handed a bronze medal back to MGS at the Nationals in a true act of sportsmanship, demonstrates far greater learnings than simply rowing the boat. Rowing teaches high-level teamwork. Rowers learn that conduct both on and off the water is what helps shape a crew. A crew is more than just a team. Overall, our results this year were excellent and the Boat Club continues to develop both physically and culturally. Eleven A-finals from 14 teams and eight top-3 results, including winning the 3rd VIII in record time, are testament to this. GRAMMARIAN 2017

Sailing The 2016/17 sailing season has been one of the most successful in BGS history, with high placings across all our teams at the School Team Racing State Championships and a strong 13th place at the Australian Schools Team Racing Regatta in Perth in July. However, most importantly, it was a season of considerable growth for the entire sailing squad. A total of 29 boys from Year 6 to Year 12 competed in regattas across the season, and for the first time, BGS had a 1st, 2nd and 3rd Sailing Team competing at the State Championships. The 1st Sailing Team had an incredibly strong season, finishing 1st in both the Term 4 and Term 1 Saturday regatta series, and winning the John Middleton Trophy. They also finished 2nd in the School Team Racing State Championships, narrowly losing to Scotch College in the final by three wins to two. At Perth in July, the team competed in the Australian Schools Team Racing Championships, placing 13th out of 26 schools. This is a strong result, and the team looks forward to being able to improve on this placing when the Nationals are held in Victoria mid-2018. The 2nd Sailing Team showed considerable improvement throughout the season, finishing in the middle of the pack in the Saturday regatta series and qualifying for the finals at the State Championships. Our inaugural 3rd Sailing Team had an extremely strong showing as well, finishing 2nd in their division at the State Championships. On behalf of the entire Sailing team, I would like to extend my thanks to our coaches Sam Mackay and Patrick Chipp, who have given us plenty of guidance and knowledge throughout the season. I would also like to thank Hayley Bunting, who has been instrumental in helping to organise and administrate our team. I can surely say that without the help of these people, we would not have been able to achieve the results we have this season. Special thanks also goes to Joshua Moore, our ‘Assistant Teacher in Charge of Sailing’, who gave up his time to come with us to the Nationals. The next season looks extremely bright for BGS, with none of the current 1st Sailing Team leaving the School until after the 2017/18 season. Ethan O’Brien Captain of Sailing

At the end of 2016, the School entered into an exciting new partnership with the Firbank Aqua Stars, with coaches Jason Cooper and Nick Findeisen taking over the training duties for the squad. Julian Wilson was elected Captain of Swimming with Will Paynter as Vice Captain. Early in the season, the squad set a number of goals and this was instrumental to building a culture of success. With three training sessions per week, there was ample opportunity for the boys to improve their fitness and times. Thursday mornings proved to be the best patronised.
Thanks very much to the parents who prepared bacon and egg breakfasts for our hungry swimmers. Saturday fixtures are used as important preparation for the APS Finals Evening and the team started well, with wins over Geelong Grammar and Melbourne Grammar. It was tremendous to see the willingness of all boys to get involved, regardless of preferred strokes or experience. The APS Finals Evening is the most important event on the calendar and the team rose to the challenge, hoping to improve on the 2016 result. The importance of team selection cannot be overstated in an event like this and our coaches did an outstanding job.

YEARS 7-12 Tennis continues to be the most popular sport at BGS, with more than 240 boys representing the School on court this season. With 23 teams entered in APS competition across Years 7–12, our boys played in over 170 individual matches and almost 1500 sets of tennis! Our 1st VIII team had just two wins this season against the Geelong schools, highlighting the current strength of the competition at this level and the divide that needs to be bridged for BGS to climb the ladder. With close losses in four matches, opportunities clearly exist. The young playing group is developing positively and was mentored extremely well this season by the leadership team of Captain Jack Summerfield and Vice Captains Julian Ou and Connor Hipwell. Congratulations in particular to Connor, who had an outstanding season, earning him a place in the APS representative team that convincingly defeated their AGS rivals. Connor also gained selection in the Pizzey Cup, Victorian Secondary Schools team. The remaining Open teams continued to perform well in fixtures, with commendable win–loss ratios, indicating that BGS has solid depth at this level. Well done to Tom Whitson, who was the best player for the 2nd VIII. The strength of APS Tennis competition continues to grow and there was plenty of talented opposition. This makes the undefeated season of our 4th VIII, under the coaching of Ms Shane, even more of an accomplishment. Congratulations to Jack Carlson, Fletcher Pullen, Tom Kosenda, Lachlan May, Nick Parsons, Matt Takahashi, Zach Warren, Hamish Whillas and Sam Tickner. The Years 9 and 10 teams had moderately successful seasons, sometimes suffering at the higher levels when stronger players were elevated to the 1st VIII. Luke Hart was Most Valuable Player for the 10A team and Winston Macgowan was awarded the Adam Brown Cup as Most Valuable Player in the 9A team, with an excellent singles record in particular. In the Middle School, much of the focus is on player development and all teams made positive progress. The season is shorter for the Year 7 boys, who play only in Term 1, but the signs are good for the future. We applaud Harley Chessells and David Canta, the Most Valuable Players in Year 8, and Matthew Bates, who received the Friends of Tennis Cup as Most Valuable Player for Year 7. BGS tennis could not function without the commitment of our coaches, including staff, Old Boys and development coaches, and we continue to benefit significantly from the ongoing support of the Thompson Club, our parent group.

Year 5
For the second year in a row, we had a large team, giving us a valuable opportunity to develop our skills and play with many different team combinations.
The Year 5 group began the season with varying degrees of experience and skill.
We were fortunate to begin the term with many experienced players, who were willing to share their skills and knowledge with their teammates. The season started slowly, with the first two matches cancelled because of hot weather. We were successful in almost all of our matches. As the boys’ recognised the progress they had made, their confidence grew and so did their enjoyment and competitive spirit. The boys worked well as a team, with everyone assisting in setting out and packing up our eight new tables. Excellent sportsmanship was evident in both our home and away matches, as well as the games played within the team. Boys congratulated each other on shots well played and graciously thanked their opponents and coaches. Congratulations to Alessandro Brook Saville, who won the knockout tournament and the Best Team Player award. Jenson Galvin, who consistently helped out, thanked opponents and wrote more than his fair share of sports reports, was awarded as the Best Team Player. Shelly Turek Year 6 Coach

However, impressive focus and determination, plus diverse drills during practice sessions, resulted in a group of boys who were far more competent, confident and invested in the game by the end of the season. The hard work paid off handsomely – the team won most of their matches, and at the very least seriously challenged their opponents. At all times, the boys demonstrated a high level of sportsmanship and, above all, enjoyment. Every boy encouraged, supported and backed up their teammate. Every single player continued to improve throughout the season but special mention should be made of Louis Binoit, as Best Player, and Max Prassopoulos as Most Improved Player and Best Team Player. The team should be immensely proud of their achievement and performance. Chester Lord Year 5 Coach

Year 5 The Year 5 Touch Football boys were playing the sport for the first time. As the intricacies of back passing and the offside law were learnt, the two teams became better organised and disciplined units. The boys were taught to keep a tight defensive line and to march upon the opposition to close down available space. When attacking, the boys learnt to move the ball quickly.

Year 6 Touch Football proved to be a very popular sport among the Year 6 boys in 2017, with BGS entering three teams into the competition. Early in the season, the 6A team demonstrated that they were going to be difficult to beat. The boys combined some fantastic inside work by Matthew Hogg, Oliver Howell and Matthew Cruse with the lightning speed of Oliver Goodger, Sam Heron and Nate Stroud. As each week progressed, their hard work at training and greater understanding of the game lead to improved performances. The 6B Blue and Red teams also had very successful seasons. Despite a few inexperienced players in the group, Matteo Di Pietrantonio, Ben Bezencon and Cooper Beasley lead their troops with skill and lifted the teams’ performances each week. Landon Penca, Blake Picking and Angus Thompson were instrumental in helping the boys to play as a team and hold their structures every game.

Touch football continues to grow at BGS. The season began in August 2016, with 40 Senior School boys trying out for 25 spots in the First VI and Second VI squads. This initial enthusiasm only gained momentum as the season progressed and the teams produced some outstanding plays. The First VI won all of their group games and qualified for the finals of the Victorian Schools Championship, narrowly losing to St Kevin’s College in the grand final in extra time. They also reached the final of the Victorian State Championship, again losing in extra time – to Haileybury, on this occasion. The Second VI reached the playoffs, losing to Trinity Grammar. With a bit of luck, these outcomes may have been different, and it was hard for the boys to walk away from the season with no silverware. However, the progression they made was outstanding and the passion with which they represented the School was inspiring. The Middle School program continues to produce and develop very talented players. All the boys played extremely well in the APS competition and the team that went to the State Championship qualified for the finals. Touch football is in a very healthy position at BGS and continues to be driven forward by an enthusiastic and committed group of players and coaches. Anthony Keane Teacher in Charge, Touch Football

Cross y r t n u o C JUNIOR School Although only six Year 6 boys chose Cross Country this term, they were a very competitive group, led by Charlie Paterson (Most Outstanding Runner), Oliver Dipietrantonio and George Roubos (Best Team Runner), who all finished in the first 12 places in every interschool race. In contrast, 20 Year 5 boys joined in the training and competition. Hugo Richey (Most Outstanding Runner) remained undefeated. Hugh Hasker (Best Team Runner), Cade Segar and James Tan regularly finished in the top 10 places in fields of up to 90 runners. Their results were almost matched by Elden Zeng and Lachie St Leger. The determination shown in competition by Ben Brown, Julian Carlin, Tom Field, Andrew McGregor and Felix Wolff was an inspiration to their BGS peers. Marcus Exler and William Stretch excelled in all aspects of their running. We look forward to the Year 5 boys providing a great stimulus for another successful season in 2018.

YEARS 7-12 The BGS Cross Country program was hit hard in 2017 by a loss of veterans, as well as the desire of our boys to play team sports. Nevertheless, the boys worked hard. Coach Jack Bullock and new Teacher in Charge Mark Dowley set the standard for personal best running and gave the boys many opportunities to compete at an elite level at State and National events. This will stand the group in good stead for future seasons. Boys were encouraged to run in APS Cross Country events, such as the weekly competitions, the ‘All Schools’ event and the road relays. Congratulations to the boys on the results below, which demonstrate the depth of talent we have in lower secondary levels.

Led by the experienced Blake Picking, Max Thomas, Lachlan Paino, Heath Fulton and Xavier Martin, the team developed cohesion over the season. With the ceaseless running of Aaron Hudghton and the awareness of Matthew Hogg, the team was hard to score against. All the boys displayed a willingness to learn and play their role as a member of the team. Most importantly, the boys displayed amazing sportsmanship over the entire season. Well done, boys.

Year 5 The boys worked hard during training sessions to improve their skill development, fitness and teamwork. Liam Cook not only assisted the group with basic strategy and tactics but also umpired our home games at Brighton Secondary College.

YEARS 7-12 The 2017 season was one of great reward for BGS Hockey. We fielded two teams across Years 7 and 8, two at Years 9 and 10, and two at Open level. While many boys at senior level trained hard throughout the hot summer in preparation for the season, our teams started their year in earnest with the now traditional Wicks Club Hockey Clinic. We had over 50 boys in attendance across the year levels, and coaching from our 1st coach, Pat Bretherton, as well as BGS senior coaches and players. In combination with Wicks Club morning teas, the clinic ensures that the club culture around BGS Hockey continues to grow. Once matches started, it was evident that our 1st XI would be a force in the competition. Under a new structure, the team performed magnificently, qualifying for the finals series under a top-four system. Six wins, four losses and a draw was a fitting reflection of the evenness of the competition and the improvement the boys had shown after the disappointments of previous seasons. Two games stood out: the 3–1 demolition of Scotch College and the 4–3 loss to undefeated premiers Carey. We certainly had our chances in this match and, though we were defeated, the team showed that BGS Hockey is now competitive among the highest level teams and shows improvement each season. Other outstanding achievements for the year included Brad Marais (Year 11) being selected for the Australian Futures Hockey Squad and representing Victoria at the National Championships. Craig Marais (Year 9) also represented Victoria at the National Championships, and both boys, along with Niklas Loycke (Year 11) and Sam Tickner (Year 12), represented the APS in matches against the Associated Grammar Schools.

y t o o f L AF JUNIOR School Year 6 The 6A football team had an excellent season, during which they improved their skill level and teamwork markedly. There were several dominant wins and only a couple of narrow defeats. Sam Litis, Oliver Goodger, Sam Heron and Braydon Hope lead from the front and performed consistently all season. The team was unlucky to lose key forward Justin Kroc to representative duties, but when present he provided a strong presence. The highlight of the year was a four-quarter effort against St Kevin’s in which the boys ran out winners by a goal. The 6B team had a strong season with some amazing wins filled with team spirit and exceptional sportsmanship. With many boys earning call-ups to the A-team throughout the season, we had to change our game plan on a weekly basis. The boys demonstrated their determination and persistence in the final game, working together as a team to overrun Kostka Hall in the fourth quarter. Matthew Cameron, Max Nannes, Cooper Beasley and Heath Fulton were standout players for the season. Hamish Leahy and Luke Fensling Year 6 Football Coaches
Year 5 The 5A football team took part in a highly skilled level of APS competition this year. The boys worked hard, demonstrating exemplary sportsmanship and teamwork. Results were mixed, but highlights included a wonderful victory against Kostka Hall and a character-building win over Haileybury, who had earlier beaten BGS comfortably. The team improved their efforts in retaining possession and running to space as the season progressed. Consistent performers on the field included Nicky Robertson, Jem Spicer, Harry Newett, Harry Pollock, Sam Fanning and Harry George. Despite mixed success, the 5B team displayed good team spirit, sportsmanship and determination. They worked consistently to the best of their ability during training sessions and matches to improve their basic skills development, fitness and teamwork. Paul Gurry Year 6 Football Coach

MIDDLE School The Middle School Football program reintroduced a third Year 7 team for the first time in a decade as record numbers opted to be a part of the story. In total, five teams consisting of 115 boys donned the blue and red throughout 2017. The coaching team was also particularly strong. Old Boy and dual 1st XVIII Premiership hero Christian Carnovale steered the 7B1 team while Nick Freeman, another proud Old Boy and ex-BGS footballer, took the reins of the 7B2 side. Travis Hopgood again led the 8A team; he was joined by 2011 1st XVIII Vice Captain Harrison McIntyre, who steered the 8B cohort. Our Year 7 squad enjoyed extraordinary success. Our two B teams were elevated a competition in the redraw after four rounds – the 7B2 team joined the 7B1 competition, and the 7B1 team found themselves in the 7A2 competition. Although up against strong opposition, both teams were superb in their attitude and enjoyed some scoreboard
success along the way. The 7A team took all before them and remained undefeated throughout the season. Not only were they the first 7A team to complete this feat in nearly 20 years, but they did so with an average winning margin of 58 points. The annual Year 8 Lockdown over ANZAC weekend continued the long-standing preseason tradition of combining football and culture. Our two sides were relatively small in stature compared to many of their opponents; however, what they lacked in height they made up for in passion and determination. Throughout the season they were involved in unexpectedly close finishes, such was their never-say-die attitude. Although wins didn’t come thick and fast, the blueprint for the future is particularly exciting. The wonderful support of the Dalziel Club was again appreciated, with all players supplied with free training shirts and various perks throughout the season.

1st XVIII Coming off the back of APS Premierships in 2014, 2015 and 2016, there were certain expectations of the 1st XVIII this year. It was always going to be tough in such a great competition. With our youngest team for five years, and including the brilliant Darby Hipwell in Year 9, we debuted 13 new players in Round 1. We played the eventual top two teams in Rounds 1 and 2, in Carey and Haileybury, and then traditional powerhouse St Kevin’s. Sitting 0–3, the team faced a crossroad: we could concede and fall back on the old ‘not our year’ or ‘too young’ excuse, or respond in a different way. It turns out this different way was ingrained within the culture of the team – and the School, for that matter. Starting with a win at Geelong Grammar, the ball began to roll. The team went on to win six out of its next seven games, including a courageous victory at Caulfield, to finish 6–4 and 4th on the premiership table. For those of us in Year 12, the chance to play for BGS over the last three years has been brilliant. Brighton Grammar Football has been a massive part of our personal development both as players and as men. We have been so lucky to have had Robert Shaw as our coach, mentor and friend. His association with Tim Marshall and Ben White has been masterful. Brighton Grammar Football is like no other; it will be missed and cherished by anyone lucky enough to have put on the jumper this year. It has been a truly memorable experience.

Rugby
The philosophy of Rugby in the Middle School is to ensure maximum engagement and enjoyment for all participants. Given the overarching emphasis on learning and development, the 2017 season was a successful one for the Under 13 and 14 players. There was great attendance at the Anglesea Pre-season Training Camp, held in the Term 1 holidays. The boys experienced a range of activities and engaged with other players in the Rugby Club, including members of the 1st XV. The emphasis of the camp was on learning the basic safety requirements of the game, as well as developing base fitness levels for the upcoming season. We also had a bit of fun practising yoga (which challenged the boys!), having a hit at the Anglesea Golf Club’s driving range and playing laser tag in Geelong. Arguably, the best result of the Under 13 season was their victory against Marcellin College on the Wilson Recreation Reserve. This was the first win the boys experienced as a team at Brighton Grammar, and also the first win for the
188
GRAMMARIAN 2017
vast majority of the team! It was a gutsy win, with tackling being the hallmark of the Tonners’ performance. In the dying minutes, Marcellin went close to scoring; however, resolute defence saw us prevail – the final score was 12 to 5. The game was reflective of the tenacious nature of this year group; it will be exciting to watch their progress in the coming years. The Under 14s battled away all season, and though not necessarily reflected on the scoreboard, their attitude and effort was admirable, and a credit to the coaching staff and leadership team. Vice Captains Will Muller and Harley Chessells continually put their bodies on the line for the team, and rallied the troops. The Captain – Stirling Findlay – was inspirational, not only with ball in hand, but also in his willingness to stop anyone who ran in his direction. In times of adversity, Stirling always held his head high, and is to be congratulated on his season. The boys now start to make the transition to Senior Rugby, and it all begins back at Anglesea next year. The future is bright for these young men! Joshua Moore Head of Rugby
SENIOR SCHOOL The 2017 Senior rugby season was incredibly successful for all teams, and was epitomised by the achievements of the 1st XV. The Under 15s made a solid transition to Senior Rugby, with a focus on developing skills and professionalism. They were ably lead by captain Archie Jackson, who was supported by Vice Captains Joel Tyler and Wei-yee Hall. By sticking to their mantra of ‘hard, smart, and fast’, the Under 16 side, captained by Cameron Glasgow, defeated almost all their opponents. Despite being in the hunt for a premiership, we lost competition points near the end of the season and finished 3rd on the ladder – nonetheless a wonderful result. In an attempt to promote cohesion and opportunity, the 1st XV and 2nd XV squads trained together, with results from both sides suggesting that this approach was valuable. The 2nd XV defeated top-of-the-ladder Carey Grammar. Team members are to be congratulated on a fantastic season, and should be recognised as a huge component of the 1st XV’s success. In 2016, the School’s Senior team achieved one victory; in 2017, they achieved seven. The 1st XV’s brand of rugby was scintillating; we were the second-highest pointscoring team in the competition. The victory over St Kevin’s during the home-and-away season was a tense and emotional affair, coming down to the final two minutes. Earning a home semi-final meant that rugby returned to the Crowther Oval for the first time in over 30 years. In front of more than 800 people, we triumphed over Trinity Grammar to book a place in the Grand Final against St Kevin’s. On that day, the bounce of the ball did not go our way, despite a very close encounter. Max Markham and Mitchell Hurd were wonderful Vice Captains. Maxwell Burt’s leadership of the 1st XV and the entire Rugby Club is a tribute to this young man – his ability to craft an inclusive and high-performance culture is an enviable skill. Four boys toured to Tasmania to represent the Victorian Schools’ Rugby Union: Cameron Glasgow (Under 16), James Fisher (Under 17), Max Markham (Under 17), and Christopher Webster (Under 17). Joshua Canham (Under 16) and Oliver Barden (Under 18) were selected for the Victorian Rugby Union state teams, and competed at respective national tournaments. At the Under 18 tournament, Oliver was further selected to represent the Australian Schools’ Barbarians. Congratulations to everyone involved in the season. Joshua Moore Head of Rugby GRAMMARIAN 2017

Soccer JUNIOR School Year 6 The 6A and 6B Soccer teams had a season of mixed results. Each week the teams worked steadily towards having players settling into and playing their positions against strong opposition teams. The stand-out player on the A-team was Matthew Cruse, who played at a consistently high level to support his team. He was ably supported by Matthew Cameron. Both players contributed in the forward line, in defence and in goal. The B-team had more consistent performances over the season and, at times, played against the A-teams of other schools. The B-team defence, lead well by the utility and teamwork of Thomas O’Leary, was difficult to penetrate. Noah Mies had a steady head and trusty right foot that thwarted many attacks. Many thanks to the boys, who took it in turns to fill the role of Captain on both teams. Hamish Leahy and Shelly Turek Year 6 Soccer Coaches
Year 5 The Year 5 Soccer teams began the Term 3 season with great enthusiasm. We had a large group of 33 capable players. The depth of talent was immediately obvious, which made choosing teams challenging. We managed to field three teams all season, despite illness and injury. The results were excellent, with the A- and B-teams winning all but a few games. Even more impressive was the boys’ ability to remain resilient and positive despite the inevitable setbacks. Congratulations to Cade Segar, Harry Pollock and Sam Trainor, who were the Most Outstanding Players in A, B and C sides.

YEARS 7-12 Three hundred boys and 16 teams across the Middle and Senior Schools demonstrate the popularity of BGS Soccer. The season provided many highlights. Our program began in Term 1, when Year 7 and 8 boys participated in development sessions each Friday afternoon. The aim of these sessions was to develop the boys’ skills under the guidance of our First XI coach, Kogu Sabaratnam, and Technical Director, Jara Dedic. They also provided an opportunity for our coaches to work together with other coaching staff to develop a common language and coaching pathway for the boys. Our First XI were led brilliantly by our senior boys, particularly skipper Sandy Faulds and Vice Captain Branko Skocic. The team finished 2nd, an outstanding achievement in such a strong competition. Losses against lower teams will be long remembered as costly, given the premiership was missed by two games; however, the team were outplayed by eventual premiers, Xavier. The wins against St Kevin’s and Haileybury were outstanding results for the team as a unit. The BGS Soccer Day for Year 7s was a great experience for these boys to get together and watch their peers. The strength of the 7A team, under coach George Fry, is exciting and this team had an excellent season when measured by the key indicators of development, teamwork, desire to listen and improve, and, above all, enjoyment. Our supporters’ group, BGS United, added further value, providing all players with kit bags for the season and being a positive presence at games each weekend. Their undying support for the boys and the program is valued highly. Luke Stewart Teacher in Charge, Soccer

The dedicated BGS Snowsports Club produced an amazing season for our boys this year. Led by the Snowsports Captain, Mattieu Speirs, the team comprised 58 boys who competed at state level, with 22 boys progressing to the national competition. BGS placed 3rd in the Primary School Boys’ competition and 3rd in the Secondary School Boys’ competition. Snowsports offers opportunities for boys at all levels. It isn’t just about the sport – it encourages boys to have fun, be part of a team, depend upon one another, celebrate individual and team successes, and develop resilience. Through training and competition, our boys learn persistence and that they can bounce back (both physically and emotionally). Boys may miss selection or qualification by milliseconds as a result of a fall; how they respond to these setbacks is a true test of their character, as is coping with challenging weather conditions, selection criteria and racing against others. Congratulations to all competitors, especially our two national champions – Will Middlemiss (Cross Country) and Reece Smart (Snowboarding).

YEARS 7–12 After finishing third for two years in a row, the expectations were high this year for APS Finals. Keen to continue building on our program, we welcomed world record holder and Olympian Sonia O’Sullivan as our senior middle distance coach, and Old Boy Doug Greenough as our high-performance and sprints coach. The season was not without its challenges. Sadly, two of our star athletes, Aaron Leferink and Chris Valcanis, were unable to compete as a result of injury. However, the rest of the team stepped into their vacancies without hesitation. A highlight of the day was the performance by Archie Perkins, who won the Under 16 long jump, despite initially being emergency for the event. This set the tone for the day, exemplifying the heart and spirit of our boys. Jackson Sweet’s performances across his variety of events (including a 1st place in the Under 15 triple jump and 2nd in the Under 15 long jump) meant that he earned the most points for the School and received the BF Mathews Perpetual Trophy. Other standout performances on the day included Tristan Scheirs (1st in Open long and triple jumps)*, Oscar Lewis (1st Under 17 long jump), Noah McGrath (2nd Under 17 high jump), Jonah Campigli (2nd Under 14 800m), Max Absalom (3rd Under 14 high jump and shot put) and Sam Fitzgerald (3rd Under 16 high jump). The competition was fierce, with Wesley and Haileybury pulling ahead of us this year; we finished 5th overall. However, the boys can hold their heads high as we were only 26 points behind our total score from last year (361 vs 387). This is an outstanding result and we did not give ground easily, with Wesley and Haileybury having to steal points from the other schools to beat us. There is no doubt that our boys are more determined than ever for next year. We know we have the calibre and heart to finish in the top three. And, dare I say it, the boys will strive to go one higher and aim for the top two in 2018. Many thanks to our Captains, Finn Campigli and Jack Summerfield, as well as our parents, BGSAC, and our outstanding staff: Tom Morehouse, Amy Atchison, Doug Greenough, Martin Green, Craig Furber, Nick Gillies, Sonia O’Sullivan and Matt Wardell.

JUNIOR School Year 6 Basketball proved to be a very popular choice for Year 6 boys during Term 3, and we fielded three teams each week in the APS competition. Experience and skill level ranged from boys who had never played basketball before to those who play in local domestic teams and those who play representative basketball. Regardless of their experience or ability, the boys trained eagerly each week, learning new skills, consolidating their use of the ball and practising play sequences. Matches were played with passion and team spirit, with each boy giving his best every week. Many match results were close and the boys improved throughout the season. The boys’ sportsmanship was exemplary and every boy can be proud of his commitment and effort. It has been a great season. Hamish Leahy and Monica Le Couteur Year 6 Basketball Coaches

Years 7–12 Year 7 and 8, and Year 9 and 10 teams were combined to allow the boys to play in a division appropriate to their skill level. We fielded four Middle School and five Senior School teams. This year, our First team stepped up to play in the APS First Division. Optional skills sessions for all boys wanting to take their game to the next level were a new initiative for 2017. Tyba Murphy brought his experience from the USA back to BGS to run these popular high-intensity sessions. Boys that took advantage of these morning sessions were treated to some excellent workouts, building their knowledge of the game as well as skills and fitness. Under the guidance of Claire Clarke, Christian Machar and Old Boys Sam Ryan and Quintin Montanaro, the Year 7/8 teams enjoyed an extremely successful and enjoyable season, with all the boys dedicated to improving. The 7/8A team went through the season undefeated – an outstanding achievement given the number of Year 7 boys in the team playing against older boys. The team also represented BGS at the Australian Schools Championships in December and loved the experience. The Year 9/10 teams, coached by Matt Burke, Mac Cameron and Sam Murray, had a challenging season, particularly as the playing roster was diminished because of injuries and there was a relatively large number of Year 9s and 10s playing in the First team. Despite this, the boys put in great performances and worked hard to improve their skills. Nick Knight (OB and Captain of Basketball in 2016) returned to coach the Seconds. The boys had many close games, but whether the team won or lost, they always enjoyed their basketball and were committed to working as a team and improving. Elevation into the APS First division was always going to be a massive step up for the Firsts, and made for a demanding season. Under the leadership of Captain Sasha Parsons, the boys were committed to improvement from pre-season camp onwards. Although the team went through the season without winning a game, the improvement was immense, highlighted by the close results at the back end of the season.

The existing court on the Junior School Oval as well as the newly developed ‘Pembo’s Nets’ court allowed BGS to claim the home-ground advantage in most fixtures. With a mix of player skill levels, from accomplished to beginner in the Year 6 group, the two teams took time to gel. They were seeded in the same competition and proved to be very even teams when they opposed each other in the third round. However, both teams showed fluctuating form against other schools, with some big wins but also some heavy loses.

But what they lacked in skill and knowledge, they made up for in enthusiasm and a willingness to work as a team. Their patience in attack meant that they rarely wasted possession, and their disciplined team defence meant that they were competitive every week.

Lead by the goal scoring of Heath Fulton, Julius Ferwerda and Ethan Petris, and the strong defensive efforts of Hunter Absalom, the team was able to work as one to achieve some memorable victories, and suffered some close defeats. Most importantly, the team should be proud of the way they displayed amazing sportsmanship and teamwork over the course of the season. Luke Fensling Year 6 Water Polo Coach

Years 7-12 With a youthful squad, hopes were high for a successful water polo season. Returning were Will Paynter leading from the front and veterans Tom Haddon, Dane Obelt, James Dickson, Finn Estella, Charlie Hayes and Julian Wilson. New faces and enthusiasm from Ben Paynter, Harrison Kirkham, Harry Matthews, Max Post and Harry Preston all boded well. Other students who had a run in the firsts included Matt Noske, Alex Adams and Sam Hayes in Year 8. The season started with four good wins, including against early favourites St Kevin’s as well as Wesley, Scotch and Caulfield. A loss to Melbourne Grammar, when some team members were away at a tournament, led to a must-win game against Haileybury. In possibly the best game of the season, both teams fought hard right to the end. The battle ended in a draw, ending both team’s premiership hopes. Xavier were eventual premiers, with BGS finishing a creditable third overall. Congratulations to Will Paynter, James Dickson, Charlie Hayes and Harry Matthews on their selection in the all APS squad to play against the all AGS squad. With a large number of players returning next season, we hope to be able to make another run for the premiership. A huge thanks to Carl Zveken for coaching, David Liddle for managing and to all parents who came along to help and support.

The 6A volleyball team had a very successful season. They were focused during training and matches, and always displayed excellent teamwork and sportsmanship. Week by week each boy continued to improve. James Hepples demonstrated great skill and teamwork. Terence Wang played consistently and was an excellent role model.
The Year 5 Volleyball team proved to be a very positive and hard-working squad throughout the 2017 season. Boys showed enthusiasm and sportsmanship, and there were many leaders in the group. Just as impressive as their willingness to work hard was the way boys carried themselves across the season. In the A-team, Diesel Saleh’s fine skills and teamwork earned him Most Outstanding Player, while Jackson Chen’s leadership, sportsmanship and spirit meant he collected Best Team Player. The award for Most Outstanding Player in the B-team went to William Yang for his dedication and level of skill, and Alistair Liddle earned Best Team Player for his leadership and motivation to improve.
The Year 6 Red and 6 Blue teams are both to be congratulated on their skill level, teamwork and sportsmanship. Some of our opponents demonstrated hard serves, making the pace of the game and return of service challenging. Throughout the term, the boys enjoyed themselves and it was good to see their skills and the quality of our rallies improve. Shelly Turek, Monica Le Couteur and Chester Lord Year 6 Volleyball Coaches

y b l i b 3 ELC The Bilby boys channelled their vivid imaginations into storytelling this year, using their creative thinking to make up a combined story called ‘Super Farm’. When we first started making up stories, the boys found it difficult not to end the story at the start. This helped them to learn that a story has a title, beginning, middle and end. We used the boys’ artwork from our farm trip as a visual. The boys responded very well to this method, and were able to identify characters and create a plot. Once we had created the story, the boys drew the characters again on a smaller scale and painted them. We continued the project by making masks and acting out the story. The boys connected so well to the story that they are now able to recite it!

Through this project, the boys have discovered that a book needs a cover, a plot and characters. They are able to identify the various parts of a book and understand what an author and illustrator do. As the boys each played a part in the story, they became more confident in acting it out in front of an audience. The project has also helped the boys gain early literacy skills, increasing their comprehension of stories, and their language skills – they have learnt to stay on topic, connect their ideas to others and take turns. We cannot wait to see the future works of all these potential authors!

T A B M O W ELC 3 Each year brings a new cohort of children into our centre. Up to 40 nervous little people enter the building ready to start their first year in ELC3. For many, it is their first time away from their family. For their parents, this can be a very trying time as well. Entrusting this precious person to two strangers takes courage. At BGS, we make the centre as welcoming as possible, with teachers keeping the lines of communication open at all time. We try to provide opportunities for the parents to get to know other parents within the group. This starts as early as orientation week, when the Wombat parents were invited to paint their family on a blank calico piece to be sewn onto our group tepee. Sitting around comparing their artistic talents (or lack thereof) begins conversations between parents that become easier with each social event. Parents are welcome to join in activities and excursions with the boys, sharing skills such as cooking or art projects. Mothers’ Day and Fathers’ Day activities involve helping our little people to finish a task that would otherwise take all term. At Fathers’ Night this year, Grandpa Allen was handed an old, battered guitar that he promptly tuned and used to accompany our crazy campfire songs! We appreciate the way parents indulge in our ideas, with numerous dress-up days, impromptu drama shows and requests for materials. The three-cornered partnership (3CP) of parent, child and school starts the minute you enter our building and, for many, will continue to Valedictory Day 13 years later.

T O O C I D N ELC 4 BA Learning does not get better (or muddier) than this! A wild, windy, muddy day at Chesterfield Farm was the perfect, practical way for the ELC boys (all 70 of them) to complement their in-centre learning about farm animals, farm-to-table and life cycles. Although some of the boys fell asleep on the bus on the way to the farm, they were full of excitement on arrival. There were a number of highlights to the day. In the barn area, the boys had a marvellous time being chased by the shoelace-eating pigs. A tractor ride allowed the boys to see the whole farm and the larger farm animals that live out in the paddocks. At feeding time, the boys were each given a cup of food and off they went. They laughed hysterically as the camel’s huge lips smooched their hands. The emus gave some of us a fright as they pecked our cups to the ground. One of the lamas greeted us with a huge, chewy smile … before spitting at us. A few boys decided to teach the cockatoo to speak Mandarin. And, much to the boys’ entertainment, the teachers took part in a milking competition. The benefits of this farm visit were many. The boys had the opportunity to get in touch with nature and experience the sensory side of the farm. The rain earlier in the day made it even more exciting, as the boys had the opportunity to jump in puddles and stomp in the sloppy mud. The farm visit was a great opportunity for the boys to hear from the farmers, and to connect their learning to real-life experiences in the wider world. With the whole ELC out together, the boys experienced a feeling of total engagement and a sense of belonging.

Y B A L L A ELC 4 W The biggest highlight of 2017 was, without doubt, our beach walks. The first group headed off in soft drizzle. It was a windless morning and we noticed that the water was calm and still, like glass. While we were looking out to sea, we saw something jump, and – to our surprise – it was a pod of dolphins! We couldn’t have asked for a better start to our beach walk experience. After watching the dolphins, the boys enjoyed walking along the wall, balancing carefully, until they came to the drains. They noticed that the water trickling out to sea was particularly dirty and even contained rubbish. This sparked rich discussions about taking care of the environment and, in particular, the creatures that live in the sea. This group also noticed a bird that was very like a seagull, but larger and with a red tip on its beak. Upon returning, we did some research and learned that it was called a Pacific Gull. Group two set off with the sun shining and a cool breeze blowing. The sea was choppy and wavy. We led the boys down some steps, close to where the waves were crashing but far enough away to stay safe. Each boy tried to climb down carefully and bravely, without getting wet. However, the mission was impossible and they shrieked with delight as they were splashed. After morning tea, we explored the coastal flora. The boys discovered some incredible nooks for hiding. They were drawn straight to the ti-trees, which are beautifully twisted, as if they were designed for climbing. The boys climbed, swung, and occasionally tumbled, as we observed incredibly inclusive and creative play. The boys initiated an imaginative game called ‘The Mountain Brothers’, which continued throughout the year back in the ELC. Research shows that unstructured, outdoor play in nature is fundamental to childhood. This has been clearly evident on our beach walks, during which the boys have been eager to learn and discover. As a result of these experiences, they are happier, more relaxed, more cooperative, more independent, more inquisitive, more engaged, more physical, more imaginative and … even more brave!

PREP Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire. –William Butler Members of the 2017 Prep class have smoothly navigated each new challenge presented to them throughout the year. From participating in their first ever cross-country carnival to creating their own catamaran during Design and Technology, the boys have shown their thirst for learning, while always remembering to have fun along the way. A very special milestone in Prep is the ‘100 Days of School’ celebration. During the day, the boys participated in a range of ‘100’ themed maths and literacy activities, and even reflected upon what they would like to be doing in 100 years’ time! The day allowed the boys to look back on their learning over the year and to appreciate the incredible growth in their academic and thinking skills. In Term 4, the boys were lucky enough to go on their very own Outdoor Education experience. Together with their teachers, they spent the day at Fairhaven, exploring the lake and its surrounds. The day began with a nature walk, during which the boys learnt about the various local flora and fauna. After a yummy picnic lunch, there were environmental games and even canoeing!

I know where I am, I know where I want to go, I know what steps I need to get there… The Year 1 boys spent time learning about dinosaurs. By exploring the answers to many questions, they unleashed their inquisitive minds and developed skills in science, mathematics and literacy. The boys took great pride in presenting their research to the class. Not only did they share their findings, but they learnt about speaking clearly, and using voice projection and eye contact when addressing an audience.
George Cuzens
In Literacy, the boys used a range of non-fiction texts to learn many dinosaur facts and drafted, edited and published their own information reports. Boys were motivated to apply their mathematical understanding through an investigative task, which enabled them to work collaboratively to solve worded problems and complete a number of open-ended tasks. The boys’ learning extended beyond the classroom during an excursion to the Melbourne Museum where teachers, parents and boys worked in partnership to further explore dinosaurs. The boys undertook a range of hands-on experiences to consolidate their learning. To conclude the unit, the boys demonstrated their knowledge of prehistoric times and dinosaurs by creating an e-portfolio. Emily Beaton and Paul Strain Year 1 Teachers

YEAR 2 During Term 3, the Year 2 boys undertook a unit about pirates. It involved numerous learning tasks and experiences designed to engage the boys by tapping into the ways they learn best. These activities were integrated into different subject areas, including English, Mathematics and Drama, which helped the boys to expand their knowledge of why people became pirates, the harsh life aboard a pirate ship and the life experiences of some famous pirates. A major focus of our English lessons was to develop the boys’ oral reading and comprehension skills by immersing them in a variety of fiction and non-fiction texts through whole-class and guided reading sessions. By discussing these texts and conducting independent research, the boys expanded their vocabulary and enhanced their understanding of spelling rules relating to plurals and tense. They were then able to use this rich vocabulary to write their own engaging pirate stories. The boys worked collaboratively in Mathematics lessons to create pirate treasure maps and outline directions to find the ‘booty’.

YEAR 3 Life in Year 3 in 2017 has certainly been full of many fun, enriching and memorable learning experiences. Without a doubt, the St Kevin’s football and soccer tournament in mid-August was a highlight for the boys. One of the primary aims of Years 3 and 4 sport is to adequately prepare the boys for our formal APS sports program in Years 5 and 6 and beyond. It is important that the boys not only develop a rich understanding of the various APS sports but also gain a competent skill set to carry with them into the upper primary years. These skills, along with a positive understanding of competitive sport, were gained through the tournament. The boys represented their School with pride, displayed excellent sportsmanship and showed a growing understanding of the games. The boys’ extensive and enthusiastic study of Celebrations was another highlight this year. This inquiry-based unit encouraged the boys to develop their questioning and research skills. While strengthening their understanding of cultures around the world, the students worked both independently and in small cooperative learning groups. Ultimately, the boys were challenged to communicate their information orally in their own words. They used the Spark Page program to present their findings – a wonderful opportunity to enhance their technology skills. It was extremely satisfying to observe so many individuals stepping out of their comfort zone and attempting to present their ideas without the use of notes.

BIRDMAN RALLY Our unit of study in Term 3 was Flight. In the classroom, boys learned about humans’ historical fascination with, and passion for, being able to fly. They also found out about inventors, flying machines and famous aviators. During Science classes, students were introduced to the scientific principles of flight. Design and Technology sessions provided the boys with an opportunity to apply their knowledge by making a balsa wood glider. The Year 4 Birdman Rally was a fitting culmination and celebration of this learning process.
CONVICT DAY To conclude our Australian history unit, the boys’ learning came to life when they dressed as convicts for the day. They were subjected to the harsh conditions inside the hulks on the River Thames (otherwise known as the Red Square!), before being carted off in chains to begin their long journey aboard the First Fleet. The boys experienced life as early settlers in the new colony by attending class at the first Australian school, established in 1789.

YEAR 5 At Camp Howqua in Term 1, in between thrills on the flying fox and the high ropes course, the Year 5s also had to use their problem-solving skills to create buoyant rafts and complete an orienteering course.
Camp Howqua
The camp gave the boys their first experience of outdoor camping at BGS, including waterproofing packs, completing a river walk and camping overnight. In Term 2, the boys built pinball machines during Design and Technology. In a hands-on environment, the boys were fully engaged in their learning, successfully solving problems and working cooperatively to construct their machines. The unit concluded with a Pinball Extravaganza in the GBR Hall, raising money for the Baraka School in Kenya. A highlight of the Year 5 curriculum is the study of gold and the impact of the Gold Rush on Australia. While visiting Sovereign Hill, the boys ventured underground on a guided gold mine tour, and witnessed steam-driven machinery in action, wheelwrights fixing wheels, and candle makers and confectioners plying their trades. They also learnt about the Eureka uprising via the spectacular soundand-light show, ‘Blood on the Southern Cross’. The boys finished the year by studying leadership. They explored the characteristics that make a strong leader, such as accountability, integrity, respect and passion (the four core values of BGS). The boys researched famous leaders, past and present, from Australia and around the world, in many walks of life. There were also opportunities for the boys to reflect on their own individual leadership qualities and ambitions.

Camp Coolamatong was the perfect environment to reconnect with old friends and forge new ones. They boys were challenged to hike, cook, bike ride, sail and overcome obstacles as a team. As they immersed themselves in the sounds, sights and fragrances of Gippsland Lakes, they also developed collegiality with classmates. Lights, camera, action! Disney’s Beauty and the Beast Jr enabled the boys to form bonds with one another and the Firbank girls. With transcendent singing, dancing and acting, the students invited the audience to ‘Be our guest’ and took them on a magical journey into French provincial life. The objects were enchanting and who could forget the standing ovation? Democracy was in action as Year 6 jetted to Canberra for an extensive tour of the political, cultural, sporting and scientific features of our national capital. Highlights included perusing Parliament House, learning about the voting process and democracy, being introduced to the importance of High Court, seeing science and the Minister of Education in action at Questacon and relaxing at the movies.

Following two transition days at the end of Year 6, our boys began their secondary school journey during the last week of January with excitement. Camp soon followed, with the annual trek to Apollo Bay and the Otway Ranges providing all boys with the opportunity to get to know others in their cohort, build relationships and experience BGS Outdoor Education. Additional highlights in Term 1 included the House Swimming sports and combined activities with Firbank, including debating, Book Club, Philosophy Colloquium and an activities day culminating in a historical tour of Brighton. The summer sport program concluded after six weeks of hotly contested Saturday fixtures. With a term under their belts, the boys returned from the Easter break with renewed enthusiasm, a new winter uniform (including a tie!) and a clear understanding of what is expected of them at this level. The boys were eager to turn their attention to winter sports, which would feature for the next term and a half. Music took on a greater focus with the Orchestral, Guitar and Choral Concert at St Andrew’s, followed by the Wind, Brass and Percussion performance a fortnight later. Boys and parents also had the opportunity to receive feedback about individual academic progress at the first parent–teacher interview. The Mothers’ Day Breakfast and Chapel was again well attended and remains a very special event on the Middle School calendar. After an extended mid-year break to recharge the batteries, Semester 2 commenced with a number of new experiences for the boys, including Science Week, snowsports and the Year 7 Social with Firbank. By now the boys had established better routines and more evolved study habits to hold them in good stead in the classroom. The latter weeks of Term 3 were very busy, with the commencement of spring sports, House Athletics and the annual Fathers’ Day Breakfast and Chapel service. A number of Year 7 boys contributed to some of our best results on record at the APS Athletics finals, and a record number of Year 7 water polo players enjoyed success in the pool. The novel experience of examinations became a focus in the later stages of the term as the academic year concluded. The 2017 Year 7 boys have certainly had a busy year in the Middle School, with significant personal and academic growth. They have established a firm foundation for the challenges that lie ahead in Year 8. Special thanks must go to our dedicated and wonderful House Tutors, who play such a vital role in the boys’ development and growth throughout their first year of secondary school. To Jessica Taillandier, Robert Hanley, Carina Jansen, Nicole Clark, Rhys Waterman and Darren Cook, thank you. Scott Davies and Tim Marshall Heads of Year 7

The Year 8 boys of 2017 have navigated an exciting year, with a wide range of experiences designed to prepare them for the Senior School and beyond. From Science pracs to Maths facts and Camp to iDesign, it has been a busy ride. Year 8 is such a significant time for the boys developmentally, as they mature academically, emotionally, physically and socially. We observe them refining their approach to study, honing their sporting and music skills, and beginning to make important decisions about their own identities, their friendships and what values will remain important to them. The Year 8 boys are expected to take on greater responsibility and leadership in the Middle School, and the current crop of Year 8 boys have managed these expectations well. While greater independence is encouraged, guidance is still needed on a daily basis and we acknowledge the wonderful pastoral work of the House Tutors: 8A Christian Machar, 8C Adrienne Mewett, 8D Bianca Lentini, 8H Ryan Barnett, 8R Rachel Bailey and 8S Jamie Watson. Over their two years in the Middle School, the Year 8 boys have engaged productively in the classroom, accommodating an increased focus on visible learning and the notion of targeting individual needs, to enable them to prosper and experience success. The improvement in output, application, organisation and time management from so many boys this year is a testament to their preparedness to persevere and accept constructive feedback from the teaching staff. A community approach is always encouraged, so it is impressive to observe the positive interaction between boys in Years 7 and 8. The guidance and mentoring the older boys offer to their younger counterparts is commendable, be this academically or in the playground. Challenge is an essential component of personal growth, so it was good to see our Year 8s support and encourage one another at Camp, despite many being out of their comfort zones. More recently, the iDesign project has enabled boys to display individual passion, and to extend themselves by learning new skills. The quality of this year’s project is simply outstanding, and is a salient reminder to the boys that they can achieve extraordinary things when they apply themselves in a focused manner. As the current Year 8 boys progress to the Senior School, we hope that they will reflect fondly on their time in the Middle School. We encourage them to continue striving to be the very best version of themselves, and to ensure that they continue to respect and support each other on the journey.

Now in its ninth year, the Year 8 Father/Son Experience continues to attract large numbers and this year was no exception. 106 fathers and sons took to the picturesque Portsea Camp for 24 hours of bonding, reflecting and spending quality time together. Under the guidance of Dr Arne Rubinstein’s ‘The Making of Men’ program, and ably assisted by facilitators from The Man Cave, participants undertook both theoretical and physical activities. During the ‘Amazing Race’ style Portsea 7-Step Challenge, fathers and sons navigated their way around the town together while completing a range of competitive tasks. Such a great tradition on the Year 8 calendar cannot occur without the passion and attendance of a number of Middle School Staff members. Travis Hopgood, Peter Furey, Katie White, Jamie Watson, Scott Davies, Danielle Wolff, Christian Machar and Tony Smith were an integral part of the weekend’s success and must be thanked. We look forward to this initiative’s tenth birthday next year when we return to Portsea to do it all again! Tim Marshall Coordinator

e c n e i r e p x E 9 r The Yea The sound of rousing chantology welcomed the Year 9 boys through the Tower and into their Houses in the Senior School. The boys met their House Captains and boys from older years with whom they would share Tutorial and House activities in the months and years ahead. Early in the year, the whole year level set off to complete the Great South West Journey. The 12-day GSWJ Outdoor Education experience is part of the Sea Change program. The boys were challenged as they hiked, canoed and mountain biked their way through almost 250 kilometres of Victoria’s beautiful southwest region. Later in the year, the boys spent another two weeks on Sea Change activities, choosing between ‘Service’ and ‘Coastal’ options. While some went as far afield as Papua New Guinea and Cape York to assist in schools, others took on local programs, helping in organisations including the Red Cross and Urban Seed. Many also enjoyed coastal trips and the chance to improve their surfing skills or gain a scuba diving qualification. There were numerous other highlights and challenges for Year 9 during 2017. Boys participated in all sorts of activities, including dancing classes and the production Legally Blonde with the Firbank girls, and F1 in Schools. The cohort had an excellent first year in Senior School, leaving the boys well set to succeed in the School and beyond during the years ahead. Peter Shepard Director of Operations, Years 7–VCE

e c n e i r e p x E 0 1 r a The Ye Year 10 is an important year as the boys take increasing ownership of their academic journey and make choices that will influence their lives beyond school. Many boys have undertaken an accelerated VCE subject and all have planned and made subject selections for VCE and potentially for university entry or other career paths. These important choices were made easier by a number of activities. During the Futures Forum, numerous external presenters, many of them Old Boys, lead discussions about the careers they are now in, and how they got there. Morrisby testing assessed the boys’ various strengths and recommended possible career paths. The year also involved adventures that were all about being present in the here and now. A group of boys and their fathers completed the first-ever BGS Rites of Passage program. This amazing experience helped the boys in their transition to young men, and strengthened their bonds with their dads and the other men of the community. All boys had the chance to complete the Bogong High Plains snow journey. This was a major challenge, with difficult conditions. The boys worked hard to get through it and succeeded, to their own satisfaction and the pride of the staff. Later in the year all boys participated in a series of workshops known as ‘Tomorrow Man’. The aim was to enable the boys to build a deeper understanding of each other and strengthen their connections. During the workshops, the boys discussed and defined the type of men they hope to become in the years ahead. 2017 has been a remarkable year, with many firsts, and the boys can rightfully look forward with confidence to their senior years in 2018 and 2019, when they lead the School.

e c n e i r e p x E 1 1 r a The Ye In 2017, Year 11 students engaged in various activities designed to support their decision making and help them develop skills needed for managing life, learning and work. A few are detailed here.
Job Skills Workshop The Job Skills Workshop aims to assist secondary school students prepare for the workplace. Students developed a resume using the BGS student careers website and participated in a mock interview conducted by a human resources professional/manager. They received written feedback to help them identify their strengths and opportunities for improvement.
Futures Forum The Futures Forum is a biennial event for students in Years 10–12. In 2017, over 60 presenters were involved, including parents, Old Boys and community members. They represented a broad range of careers, from diplomacy and humanitarian pursuits to veterinary medicine and
240

the Australian Defence Force. The Forum provides the opportunity for students to hear from presenters first-hand about their career trajectory and their current employment as they capture ‘a day in the life of a…’.
VCE and Careers Expo In May students visited the Caulfield Racecourse for the VCE and Careers Expo. The VCE and Careers Expo is represented by a broad range of exhibitors and includes diverse sessions by institutional representatives, career practitioners and educators.
Launch of the ‘Smarter about Drugs’ Conversation Pack Year 11 students completing Units 1 and 2 of Global Politics were invited to attend the launch of ‘Smarter About Drugs: A Conversation Pack’. This resource is designed to help educators facilitate critical and informed discussions among students about drugs and alcohol use. Currently being trialled, it is mapped to the Australian Curriculum and is expected to empower young people to become involved in the development of drug and alcohol policies at a broader community level.

e c n e i r e p x E 2 1 r The Yea ‘Big Fella’ camp in late January was the ultimate way to start the Year 12 journey. In only its second year, this camp involved the whole year level travelling together to Falls Creek for three days of workshops focused on how the boys would lead the School in the year ahead, as well as strategies to better cope with the stresses of Year 12. A day-long hike up and back down Mt Bogong was the first of many challenges the group accomplished together. As a part of the Legacy Project, the Year 12 boys were continually challenged throughout Term 1 as they introduced the leadership model to the younger members of their respective tutor groups. The Year 12s did a great job of modelling the four archetypes: the warrior, the wizard, the sage and the caregiver. Fortnightly Year 12 meetings gave boys the opportunity to think critically about issues that affect them, outside
242
GRAMMARIAN 2017
of the formal classroom setting. Nick James (OB 2015) spoke about the personal impact of road trauma. The Respectful Relationships workshop, numerous VTAC/ careers information sessions, as well as year level discussions centred on initiatives to lead the school, all provided unique opportunities for the boys to build their individual capacities. Saturday Syndicate sessions began in August and the Year 12s embraced the chance to work with and support their peers in their learning. Almost half the Year 12s regularly made the most of this invaluable opportunity to extend their understanding through collaborative learning. Congratulations must go to this fine group of young men. They have continued to embrace the challenges faced, grown together as a cohort and left their legacy as the Class of 2017. Amy Atchison Head of VCE Programs

BGS COMMUNITY
n o t h g i r B d l O e h T y t e i c o S ’ s n a i r a m Gram The Old Brighton Grammarians’ Society (OBGS) was founded in 1908 by Dr George Henry Crowther, with the aim of keeping Old Boys in touch with their school through social functions and sporting clubs.
Events specifically for young alumni included a great ‘Grand Final Eve Eve’ barbecue in the Atrium.
The OBGS has expanded somewhat since its inception, but cultivating and maintaining alumni connections, both within the Society and to the School, remains its core function. All students of Brighton Grammar, regardless of tenure at the School, become life members of the Old Brighton Grammarians’ Society – a strong and valuable network that will serve them for the rest of their lives. In addition to opportunities to reconnect with their year level at regular reunions, members enjoy many other opportunities to network with Old Boys from different year levels. For example, the OBGS runs reunions in different regions around Australia and the world. These reunions are a great opportunity to connect with other Old Boys in the area, which can be of great personal and professional value. Next year, the OBGS will introduce business networking events, providing Old Boys with the chance to connect with others in their industry and hear from expert speakers. Events such as these are wonderful mentoring and career advancement opportunities. The Brighton Grammar community is a close-knit one; if your son wants to talk to someone doing his degree or working in his chosen field of endeavour, he can make that connection through the OBGS. Currently, this can be done through the Alumni Office but in 2018, the OBGS will launch a new website that will facilitate online connection of Old Boys for mentoring, networking and business promotion. Whatever you are doing or seeking, there are always Old Boys willing to help.

The OBGS has two very strong clubs – football and soccer. These clubs are great communities to be a part of, whether it be playing, supporting or volunteering in some way. Boys, once they finish at BGS, as well as their parents are most welcome to join these communities. The OBGS welcomes ideas from its members. We are here to support and enhance community. Class of 2017, you may not be a student at Brighton Grammar any more, but you will always be a Brighton Grammarian and you will always be part of the BGS family.

y t i n u m m o C e r a Sh Campus What is Share community campus? Share Community Campus (SCC) is an initiative of Firbank and Brighton Grammar Schools whereby the schools’ facilities are shared with external users, primarily children’s program providers. These providers run their specialised programs at the schools’ facilities, after school, during the holidays and on weekends. Mostly external users attend these programs, which is a great way of sharing our school facilities with the wider community.
Why does it exist? SCC was established in 2001 because research indicated that the local community considered Firbank and BGS to be elitist and, in essence, ‘gated’ communities. By opening up the doors, it was hoped that the broader community would see the true nature of the schools, staff and families. Research also indicates that there are strong academic, behavioural, social and emotional benefits to after-school programs. After-school is a great environment to learn how to become a learner, which is a prerequisite to academic achievement. Learning by experience, reflection and skill building is developed. Conflict resolution skills and healthy lifestyle habits are formed. There is space to engage in reflection, planning and problem solving. In fact, the benefits are so great that dosage is important too. Those who attend more or over a longer period of time benefit most.
Has SCC been a success? With over 90,000 students (mostly from ‘outside’ Firbank and BGS) coming through the schools’ doors to attend programs over the last 12 years, a financial contribution of over $1.5 million, and new student enrolments arising from attendance at these programs, we think so!

y p o r h t Philan It has been wonderful to witness the growing culture of philanthropy at BGS and this was clearly evident on Giving Day – see page 4 for more. To the 431 donors in our community, a sincere thank you for enabling us to offer the gift of a BGS education to two boys who would not otherwise be able to attend the School. Over the past few years, through the generous support of our community, we have been able to bring to life eight fully funded scholarships at BGS. In 2018, and as our culture of philanthropy continues to strengthen, we will be reaching out to our community for support for our most ambitious building program in the School’s history – a new science, design and technology precinct. You will hear more about this vital facility in the not-too-distant future. If you would like to make a gift to our Building, Library or Scholarship Fund, or to discuss leaving a gift to the School through a bequest, please contact me on 03 8591 2280 or jphillips@brightongrammar.vic.edu.au.

e h t m o Fr archives In 1918, the new Headmaster, LieutenantColonel Henry Arnold Crowther, announced that the School would introduce Manual Training for boys. The trend at the time was sloyd (also known as Educational sloyd), after the Swedish word slőjd, meaning skilful methods in woodcraft. Crowther had seen an exhibition of sloyd works featuring household implements, such as bread boards, shoe racks and trays, all made to a set pattern. Crowther belied that the sloyd method could enhance the general development of a boy’s natural facility, and that it promoted mental development at both primary and secondary levels. The production of items was secondary to the learning process. In educational terms, it was believed that handicrafts built character and encouraged moral behaviour, greater intelligence, and industriousness. The promotion of sloyd at Brighton Grammar was innovative. Worldwide, the Arts and Craft movement was influencing design and the selection of materials. Emphasis was placed on natural timbers and terracotta rather than glass and steel – a rejection of the Machine Age and war manufacturing, and a return to a craft base. BGS boys were encouraged to learn about nature by using native materials, going for nature walks along the beach and drawing freehand their own observations of woods, leaves, fruits and flowers. These exercises were known in sloyd as ‘object lessons’. The Education Department was keen to promote sloyd. It paid teachers 7s 6d per session to attend Saturday morning classes, and schools with a qualified teacher were supplied with a bench and tools, and received £20 per year.

n u R s ’ r o Conn The Robert Connor Dawes Foundation, created in June 2013, holds a special place in the BGS heart and this is nowhere more evident than through the School’s support of Connor’s Run. Robert Connor Dawes attended BGS from 2008 to 2012 and tragically passed away as a result of a brain tumour in 2013. The run is held annually in Robert’s memory to raise funds for ‘brain matters’ in the areas of research, care and development. In 2017, we had a huge turnout of current students, parents and staff to operate a water station and cheer the runners as they passed. This year, the run exceeded the $600,000 goal, raising $773,641 in donations. Headmaster Ross Featherston completed the run carrying an additional 5kg of weight (1kg for every $1000 raised by the BGS community). It was fantastic to see a number of current and past students, parents and staff run on by. Particularly special moments included seeing Nick James with his team of walkers and our MITS (Melbourne Indigenous Transition School) student Jordan ‘Jordy’ Bourke coming through the finish line.

ipe the kitchen bench. Wash Braeden’s hockey gear after the match. Reheat the leftovers from yesterday. “There’s quite a bit of routine involved, let me warn you,” an older mother had told me when I had just had my firstborn. How naïve I was then, laughing her comment off. “Wouldn’t mind a bit of routine right about now,” I chuckled, as Braeden yet again began screaming for reasons I could not comprehend. I was met with a light round of laughter, as the room full of sleepless mothers courteously humoured me, paying little attention to the book we agreed to read for our newfound book club. How naïve I was. Now, I idly dream of my youth; my records of Michael Hutchence, belting out the words of Beautiful Girl as Steve and I would dance carefree around our threeroom apartment building, keeping the neighbors awake with our antics. Now, I hear only the obnoxious cacophony of Chris Brown telling me that he’s going to dance forever, the music leaking from Braeden’s room. Good luck with that, I think to myself.

I could always tell when Steve was home; it’s hard to miss the distinct sound of his old 1972 Cadillac coughing and spluttering as it enters the driveway. Steve loves the thing, partially because he has never had the pleasure of working under the hood – that task, he leaves up to me. I’ve fixed the lubrication system more times than I can count, I tighten the brake pedal on what seems to be a regular basis and I can align the drive belt around the crankshaft pulley faster than a formula one pit team. Menial chores have never been Steve’s ‘thing’; after all, who has time for humdrum errands when you have a six-figure accounting job in the biggest hedge fund in the country? The slamming of the front door brings me back to reality, and I quickly preheat the oven to 180 degrees. “How was work today, hun?” I ask, cautiously optimistic that this would be the day I would get more than a one-word response.
“Same old.” It has been this way for a few years now. Ever since the first few white hairs appeared, ever since my skin first began to sag, there has been a distance between Steve and I; growing steadily worse as time goes on and these old harridan lines continue to spread. Steve grunts as he kicks back on the couch, flicking on the TV and flipping to the footy as he loosens his tie. The room is engulfed by the enthusiastic cries of Bruce McAvaney offering a play-by-play as Geelong battle it out with the Hawks, accompanied by the faint melodies of Kanye West’s new album escaping Braeden’s room. “Get me a beer, will you?” shouts Steve over the TV, waiting patiently as I stop washing the plates and pull one from the fridge. Surely this task deserves some appreciation, I think to myself. A light kiss on the cheek would be nice – even a “thank you” would be enough.
Dark Days (With a Hint of Colour) Toon Craps (Year 7)
S
he wouldn’t know, I assured myself, thinking back to the horrible conversation I had with the girl. She didn’t know. And that’s why I told her. Why I told her about the importance of observing and paying attention to your surroundings these days. The importance of knowing all that happened around you.
I was keen on getting back home. The night was a cold, dark yet dry one. Here and there I observed the few little flickering of lights. My eyes seemed to stalk the rats as they fled away into the sewer. My ears listened attentively to the small tutting noises the few cars made, as they drove by. Or rather, the tanks. Observing things was not only important for viewing purposes, but also crucial for survival. You see, in my world, my time, every little detail you miss could be fatal. You could miss the gun, peeping out of a broken window. Miss the bang it makes when it launches the bullet right at your leg. Bleed then you would. Die. Right on that very spot. Rot away with the gravel beneath your bloody feet. I felt a cold, wet slob of a tear glide down my cheek. I observed it dropping down to the cold gravel. Observed it die and mix with the soil. Just like my elder sister, Julie had. I remember it clearly. The sound the gun made. Remember the speeding bullet, aimed right for me. Remember thinking that it was the end. Of me. That I was going to die with a bullet stuck in my chest. I remember
closing my eyes. Not seeing what had happened. Not seeing how Julie had dived in front of me. Not realising that the quick, high pitched scream hadn’t come from me. I had thought I was dead. But when I took my hands off of my eyes, I saw her. Or rather her blood that seemed to leech into the gravel. It was truly horrific. Such a detailed way of death that only war can pursue. It happened a month ago. But it felt so long ago. It felt like I had matured so much, that I had become a man. Now, I stalk the street. Gun by side. My ears so alert, my eyes ready, and my trigger-finger ready to fire. Fire a bullet. That bullet would take an enemy out. An enemy, who was probably forced to go into this war. Who probably had a family. Had kids. Had a life that he could have lived. I snapped back to my senses, angry at myself that I had drifted off. I reminded myself that I could have been shot. That in that ten-second flash-back, I could have suffered the same fate as Julie. Except I wouldn’t have died brave. I would have died stupid. If I had been shot then and there, Julie would have died for no purpose. I snapped back. Because I saw it. The gun. The gun that could have been fatal. It could have shot me dead. Put a bullet in my chest. Chuck one in my leg. For all it cared, fire a couple more rounds to prove who was boss. But he didn’t. And the gun didn’t. My gun did. And I did.
His life was simple. And his death was useless. A pull of the trigger with my finger. A screeching loud BANG! Then a horrified, loud scream. And then silence. Just like the other 70 million people who died. But most of them didn’t have the privilege to get shot. No. They died of hunger. Of mass toxic gas. Disease. Devastation. And then it happened. The gun. It was peeking out of a window I had thought I had checked. I ducked, but too late. A bullet launched at my leg, and I felt my blood spurting out of the wound, and into the soil. I screamed. And this time I knew it was my voice, because not even a second later, everything went black. When I opened my eyes, I saw it. The sun. Was I dead? “Who are you?” the voice said. I didn’t see him, or know him but I replied:
“Jonah. My name is Jonah.”
Miraculously, the voice responded: “Welcome to Area 4.1.” Pretty soon I discovered this to be what it was. Area 4.1 was a huge system that had dark and long tunnels leading into different timelines and places. I also found out what people used it for.
Or rather, misused it for. GRAMMARIAN 2017

The People’s Champion Joel Dow (Year 9)
T
he screams of the barbarians raged through the battlefield, as the blizzard began to settle in. The Knights of the Silver Circle were surrounded by hordes of barbarians. As the blizzard finally arrived, Lionel, a squire to the gallant knight Sir Belgrave was separated from his mentor, after the knight strangely ran off into the mist. Lost, cold and afraid, Lionel called out for Belgrave but nothing could be heard over the roaring storm. Lionel, weak, headed further out into the blizzard. Unable to hold himself up anymore, Lionel collapsed, not even being able to feel the snow on his face and fell unconscious. As Lionel awoke he almost immediately began searching the battlefield for his mentor. Lionel found later him, but not in the way he intended. Belgrave was barely alive, bleeding onto the snow. “Sir?” asked Lionel “What happened here?” “Don’t bother trying to save me, child,” said Sir Belgrave, “I’m long gone.” “Master, please don’t leave me!” exclaimed Lionel. “You’re the only family I have left.” “I tried my best to keep calm, but I was

so afraid of them, I… just… let him kill me,” sobbed Belgrave. This was a shock for Lionel. He never knew that the great Sir Belgrave was ever afraid of anything; he’d assumed he was a fearless warrior with no equal and superior to any savage barbarian. “Your death will be honoured, noble Belgrave, I will make sure of this,” cried Lionel. “Honour!” said Belgrave. “What do you know about honour, you who has never faced true fear? You must learn what honour is, before pretending that you are a warrior. Know this, before you step onto that thin red path, where no misstep is allowed and it’s impossible to turn back: you must know that the path only ends when your legs fail to support you and your heart stops beating. It will take you, without any shame, into the cold hands of death.” Belgrave then drew in his final breath and shut his eyes. Lionel stayed with the deceased Belgrave, having no idea where to go. As his last guardian left him, Lionel pulled out Belgrave’s longsword and knelt down, preparing to plunge the sword into his already desolate heart. Three – everything was quiet, not another noise could be heard. Two – he
could hear the voice of a woman crying for help in the distance, and before the count of one the cry for help became real as Lionel saw a desperate cloaked woman running away from an armed ruffian. Lionel couldn’t stand to see another person too afraid to defend themselves die. He charged towards the brute and immobilised him quickly with a swift sword strike to the leg. The man was down and the woman escaped into the frosty mist. Lionel trained for years on end after that day, perfecting his fighting with the longsword and his technique in horseback riding. Many years passed, as did many thoughts in Lionel’s head. Believing that if he was not serving anyone and was harming others, this would make him the most dishonourable knight; he would never let anyone suffer the same fate that Belgrave did. Lionel now ready walked into the armoury, readying himself for what was to happen. What walked out of that armoury was The Warden, defender of the weak and fearful, the light that guides the people and the knight that brings both hope for the good, and terror for the wicked. The legend of The Warden has begun.
