CHRISTIAN BROTHERS' COLLEGE FREMANTLE The Christian Brothers are a Catholic Religious Congregation of lay men, founded in the city of Waterford, Ireland by Edmund Ignatius Rice in 1802. Edmund Rice was a layman of forty years of age when he founded his Congregation in response to the needs of the children of his own city and indeed the whole country. His wife had died soon after they were married and since that time he had increasingly devoted his energies and considerable fortune to the care of the sick, the needy and especially the children of Waterford. When his handicapped daughter reached adulthood, Edmund Rice made provision for her, and resolved to go to Rome to enter a monastic congregation and serve God in prayer and silence. However, his great compassion and concern were also drawn to the human, spiritual and educational plight of the children of Ireland who had no opportunity of any'education at all unless they attended schools at which abandonment of the Faith of their Fathers was a prerequisite of enrolment. He built and opened his first school in 1802 but the teachers he tried to employ invariably became discouraged and left Ilim. For some time he carried on alone, endeavouring not only to teach his unruly charges but to feed and clothe them as well. Edmund Rice's whole life was characterised by a great trust in the goodness of God and although at this time he must have felt discouraged and abandoned he never lost heart. "Providence is our inheritance" was his invariable response to problems which seemed insoluble at the time. Over the next thirty years a considerable number of men from all walks of life began to join him and together they resolved to form a new Religious Congregation which was formally approved by Pope Pius VII in 1820. Edmund's cause for canonisation is currently being examined in Rome by the Congregation of Saints. Edmund Rice and his first Brothers decided to devote themselves entirely to an educational apostolate and for this reason they resolved not to seek ordination to the priesthood which they felt might involve them in other tasks and responsibilities which would take them away from their schools and the children. The Congregation has continued in his spirit and since his death in 1844 has expanded to all parts of the world. The Brothers have schools and a variety of other educational institutions in Europe, North and South America, India, Mrica, Australia, New Zealand, New Guinea, Sudan, Liberia
and the islands of the Pacific. The Christian Brothers came to Australia first in 1843 but returned to Ireland in 1847 when it became impossible for them to retain their identity here. They returned in 1868 and have since opened over 150 primary and secondary schools, schools for the orphans and neglected or disturbed children, schools for the blind and the deaf, special schools for aboriginals, boarding schools, agricultural schools and other activities. In recent years they have become involved in tertiary education, especially teacher education. The first WA. School in 1894 was e.B.e. in St. George's Terrace, Perth which was the place of origin of both Aquinas and Trinity Colleges. The oldest continuing School on the same site in WA. is Christian Brothers' College, Fremantle, founded in 1901. The original College had begun in 1882 and today the building is still in use as the school hall. Its builder was a Fenian (Sinn Fein) convict who was a trained architect but had been transported to Fremantle with John Boyd O'Reilly for political reasons. Between 1882 and 1901 the College was staffed by lay teachers but when "State Aid" was withdrawn in 1895 the Church was unable to continue to staff the School and the Bishop Matthew Gibney asked the Brothers to take it over. From 1901 to 1911 e.B. e. was one of the half dozen schools in the State preparing students for Public and Matriculation Exams of the University of Adelaide but this changed after the establishment of the University of WA. in 1913. In 1916 Brothers S. Woodlock and D.G. Purton were amongst the first graduates of the new University, together with two of their former students, the late Mr Tom Cullity and Mr D.G. Taylor. By 1904 the enrolment of e.B.e. had reached 200 of whom 86 were secondary students. The College annalist comments that more than half the secondary students were non-Catholics, indicating a long ecumenical tradition. Many of the names and achievements of the College are recorded on the Honour Boards in the College Hall. The Brothers at e.B. e. now work in partnership with a large lay staffwith whom, in accordance with the ideals of the Second Vatican Council, they share the Christian and professional responsibility for the education of students entrusted to them by their parents. .,

PARENTS AND FRIENDS REPORT At the end of 1987 I was privileged to be elected the President of the Parents & Friends Association. In this capacity I have been entrusted to make decisions at Parent level to represent parents at various functions, but perhaps most importantly because I believe we should invest in the future to which I dedicate a lot of time in the interest of my son and yours. In this I am not alone, a core of approximately forty parents are dedicated to attending meetings and many more parents respond positively when approached to help. In attending meetings parents have the opportunity to voice a concern, an opinion and share in the direction money raised by the Parents is spent. Achievements 1988 has been the climate of many years of planning, working and fund raising culimating in the opening of the New Hall and playground developments at Tuckfield Street Campus. This along with upgrading facilities at Ellen Street would not have been possible without the sub-committee of work, finance and social/ fund raising. To these parents on behalf of all parents I extend thanks and applaud their efforts.
Liturgy The opening (Founder's Day) and Family Day Masses were attended by the majority offamilies, highlighting the priority parents have in enrolling their sons at this School. Social The Raffle was again a financial success and very well supported. The Anzac Day Dinner Dance at Dominic's was enjoyed by the 180 odd people who attended. The breakfast at Lombardo's was so well attended I feel parents are indicating that this is the type of function preferred. To all those who have supported the P & F, the Committee and myself extend our thanks and look forward to another year in 1989 where parents respond to supporting their sons by participating in P & F activities. David Gowenlock President
NEW HALL - JUNIOR CAMPUS On Thursday the 28th of July the Junior Campus held its Official Opening of the New Hall. The Opening took the form of an assembly in which the school's music students took a prominent part. The Senior, Intermediate and Junior Bands entertained the staff and students for over an hour. For the opening, over 300 people were comfortably seated in a pleasant, aesthetic environment. Up to the hall opening assemblies on the Junior Campus were held in the largest space possible - the library. Unfortunately the library was too small to comfortably hold 250 students and staff. The Parents and Friends Association saw a need and remedied the situation by providing funds for the conversion of an old art room and part of the undercroft into a mUlti-purpose hall. Their foresight has been rewarded by its extensive and varied use, which has included such activities as Parent/ Teacher Meetings, Music Interlude, Masses and Drama Sessions.
RELIGIOUS EDUCATION Religious Education is far more at e.B.e. than simply what happens in the R.E. class. It is essential to education in a Catholic school that religious education should pervade the whole school curriculum. Religious education is concerned with growth in faith of the whole person, not simply of one aspect of the person we choose to call religious. All teachers at e.B.e. have a part in religious education for better or for worse. So that it may be for the better, every teacher has a booklet which explains how religious education applies in his or her subject area. The religious education guidelines published in 1987-88 have now been fully incorporated into the R.E. curriculum at C.B.e. From the start of 1989, each R.E. staff member will know exactly which teaching points from the guidelines are to be taught each term at every class level in order to meet the needs of the students. Yet, the guidelines are flexible as well as comprehensive, allowing for choice in the particular aspects of the prescribed guidelines that require special focus and also the strategies most appropriate for teaching. Both the focus points and a wide variety of possible strategies are set out in the guidelines.
The overall aim of these R.E. guidelines is to enable young people to develop into fully human persons who, in spite of the limitations they might have at any stage of growth, reflect God in their lives. On this foundation of persons formed in Christian faith, there arises renewed growth of the living Church. When individuals and families filled with the spirit of Jesus are united in community, human limitations are overcome in Christ in whom all things are brought together in unity and perfection. The school itself aims to be such a Christian community. Father John Hannah, parish priest at Fremantle, has strengthened the traditional bond between the Oblates of Mary Immaculate community and e.B.e. by personally taking over chaplaincy duties. Other priests have assisted us greatly, particularly Father Michael Delahunty, parish priest at East Fremantle, at the Junior Campus, Tuckfield St. We are most grateful for this generous and essential service. Br. O.P. St. John
ST. VINCENT DE PAUL SOCIETY Though in 1988 our C.B.e. branch of the Society had just eight members the initiatives undertaken were many and helpful. Those efforts included gardening jobs for the elderly, Sunday afternoon outings to Kings Park or elsewhere for our friends from Skye Hospital, a Clothing Drive, some after-school visits to Skye as well as participating in the Doorknock Appeals. There were also, of course, the wellattended, weekly Friday lunchtime meetings. Again this year a highlight was the Cake Stall on Family Day. With good support from many cooks; especially Mrs. M. Miller who made and. presented a beautiful Christmas Cake to be raffled, we raised $400 for our 1988 Calcutta Appeal. It's pleasing to record that this Appeal was well supported by most classes with some being outstanding in their contributions: Year II S with $200, Year 11 B with $106 and the Year 9 classes with a combined total of$230 . Added to these amounts were two generous donations from parents. In all, the Appeal total was $1200. We also acknowledge with gratitude and appreciation the support - moral and financial ($150) - given to us by the Student Representative Council. (Thanks, Wade) That 1988 has been a good year for the St. Vincent de Paul Society at e.B.e. is due in no small measure to the generosity and hard work of our President, Wayne Barton. Wayne set the standard and was well supported by Jason Tandy (Secretary), Phil Matich, Nathan Verity, Troy Russell, David Tunnecliffe, Elio Colalillo and Rick de Castro. To each, well done and thanks. Br. G. Seaman

YEAR 12 WORKSHOP REPORT
YEAR 13 WORKSHOP REPORT
In this modern world of "living in the fast lane", the thought of a week's religious retreat just did not excite many of the Year 12 students. As a change from past traditions, the venue selected was the Christian Youth Camp at Lake Cooloongup near Baldivis. This proved most appropriate for the workshop theme of Personal Awareness and Human Relationships. This theme was achieved by mixing prayer with self-awareness activities and various fun activities like table-tennis, pool, basketball, tennis and the exhilarating "Flying Fox". We all learnt to react with each other as people, recognising each other as individuals. For many, it was the first time they had been asked to realise they were feeling people besides being thinking persons. All these goals were made possible by a supporting team of facilitators who comprised Mrs. Elaine Hart, Mrs. Gemma Colgan, Mrs. Beryl Stacey, Miss Nicole Gray and Mrs. Trevanna Letizia. Brother St. John and Br. Kelly were given strong support from supervisors Mr. Doran, Mrs. Rodgers and Mr. McIntyre all of whom kept the camp well-organised and well-maintained. As always, a camp can't be run efficiently without help from Mrs. Faria and the parents. This year her helpers were Mrs. Epis, Mrs. Farrell, Mrs. Sangalli and Mrs. Gavin. A special thanks to all these people from the Year 12's for their help and involvement. The camp was a great success and established the value of people reacting together without losing their individuality within a religion framework.
Twenty-one of last year's Year 12's gathered at Woodman's Point Campsite, on the 6th September, for a weekend workshop. Many more had expressed the desire to come but the weekend chosen couldn't suit everyone. The workshop was a looking-back at what had happened to them since leaving school, and the issues that had arisen, and then looking forward to where they were heading in the future. It was run along the same lines as the Year 12 Workshop. The groups were facilitated by Br. Kelly, Mrs. Henderson, Mrs. Hart and Mrs. Letizia. Br. St. John and Mrs. Gavin also came along to help with the organisation. The boys who came entered into the spirit of the weekend, so much so that they were quite content to sit around enjoying each others company rather than go tearing off to their usual weekend haunts. Several said it had strengthened the bond between them and made them determined to keep in touch with friendships they had let lapse. The general consensus, at the end of the workshop, was that it had been a thoroughly worthwhile experience.

SENIOR BALL REPORT 1988 On the evening of Friday, May 13th c.B.C.'s annual Senior Ball was held in the most distinguished surroundings of Perth's Langley Plaza Hotel. Black Friday was not to deny both staff and students a relaxed and enjoyable night, their combined participation drowning earlier worries of a less than desirable turnout. This may have been due to the fact that the corporate people put their heads together and decided in the interests of all concerned that the Ball would be better off shifted . up the school year, further away from the confusion of mid year exams. The night itself went by free of the dramas one would normally associate with such an event and due praise must be given to both the students and their parents for their conduct before and during its course. Thanks must go out to the caterers in supplying the excellent food, which everyone enjoyed, the parents who helped supervise, the definitely happening band "Talk Big" who helped make the night such a great success performing at little more than cost price and of course Br. Kelly and the Ball Committee led by the engineer of such events, Mrs. 'When it's got to be organised by next week' Letizia, without whom the Ball would have been a little more than a Christmas present.

FAMILY DAY REPORT The last Sunday in October is when our school community usually celebrates Family Day, but this year it had a theme very pertinent to our school family - that of farewell to Mrs. Joan Jacobs who had been the School Secretary for twenty-three years. It was also farewell to the Year 12's and other staff and students who would be leaving this year. Father Brian Gore, celebrant, and close friend of Mrs. Jacobs, said he remembered when he was at school here at C.B.e. and how, here, the seed had been sown that had led to him becoming a priest. He said that we all had our own life story to write, especially the Year I 2's who would shortly be leaving school, and that they must remember that the important thing was what sort of person they became rather than what career they chose. David Cribbin presented Mrs. Jacobs with a silver cake tray and server on behalf of the Year 12's, thanking her for her generosity to the students, and for the mother image that she projected. Mr. Gowan Lock, president of the P. & F ., also presented her with a gift. Br. Kelly thanked her, not only for the many years she worked as Secretary, but especially for her early years at e.B.e. when she had worked faithfully and untiringly in a voluntary capacity. He then gave her a Collector's Shakespearean wall plaque on behalf of the school. Then the usual Family Day activities commenced with the classrooms on display, the St. Vincent de Paul cake stall which raised $400, a gymnastics display, performances by the school bands, and the drawing of the raffle which was won by A. Bickley of Wattleup. A Year 12, Danny Ciampini, performed with his own band, and the students beat the teachers, for a change, in the basketball match, even though the teachers had recruited ex-head boy Glen Dunkerton and Doug Harvey to help them. Everyone thought the day a great success despite the unexpected high of 36° .

SCHOOL COUNSELLORS CORNER 1988 I would like to use this opportunity to report from a Career Counsellors viewpoint on the changing demands connecting education to employment. I n the Work Experience report I have referred to the trend of an increase in the age and qualifications of school leavers. This has occurred in response to changes in the education system, Government training programmes for youth and employer's requirements. Employers are now more aware of productivity issues and the high costs associated with staff turnover. They realize with increased access to education and the technological developments the workplace is now highly mobile. Consequently they are looking for maturity and commitment in potential employees, to alleviate these problems. Students who have continued on to Year 12 are more able to demonstrate these qualities. Year 12 is no longer only a goal for those aspiring to go on to University, but it is an important qualification for gaining employment. Of the 1987 Year 12 graduates from e.B.e. Fremantle 50% went on to tertiary studies, 12% enrolled in technical courses and the rest went into employment. The jobs they obtained all have career prospects and involved training on the job. They were positions they were much less likely to obtain at a younger age without Year 12 employment. It is interesting to note that all of these figures are equal or better than those published by the State Government in a survey of the destination of all 1987 School Leavers. This survey also showed that the types of jobs that Year 12 students can obtain are much higher status and have greater career potential than those available to graduates, from Year IO and I I. Bearing these points in mind the major message I have for students is to choose their course in Year I I and 12 carefully. Students will obviously achieve better results if
they choose subjects in line with their interests and abilities rather than solely to gain entrance to University of which less than 50% of all Year 12 graduates in the State are able to achieve. Improved employment prospects will then follow. 1988 is my third and final year as Counsellor at e. B. e. Fremantle. I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know the whole community of students, parents and staff. The highlight of the year is undoubtedly that of my marriage to the Economics Teacher, Sean Henderson. Consequently I will not be severing my links with C.B.e. altogether.
WORK EXPERIENCE 1988 In recent years the trend has been for an increasing number of students to continue their studies to Year 12. In todays labour market this is certainly a wise decision . Consequently the aims of the Year lOW ork Experience Programme have had to alter in line with these new trends. The primary purpose is no longer to enable students to 'tryout' a future career. Most are very likely to change their minds about this as they develop and mature to the end of Year 12. The most important objectives now are to increase the students sense of responsibility, his decision making abilities and his appreciation of his own strengths and weaknesses in the vocational field . This naturally assists students in choosing an appropriate course in Year 11 and 12 and provides them with some experience on how to appraise themselves for choosing careers in later years.

DRAMA I WAS A TEENAGE JEKYLL & HYDE The fear, tightness in the chest, the weakness in the knees, the anticipation of waiting in the wings, the surge of adrenalin as you step out into the glare of the lights. The heat and perspiration, the sense of the mass of audience hidden behind the dazzle of lights. The hustle and anxiety of scene changes in the dark. Could we remember all our lines? The exhilaration of hearing laughter and applause; the stirring of emotions. The excitement, the feeling of trust and close friendships all the unique experiences of theatre. It all began in July, a group of students, individuals from c.B.C. and De Vialar - eyed each other from different points of view and I wondered if we could break down the barriers: Reluctance to sing, dance and the fear of appearing stupid. Rehearsals progressed slowly and we lost a few individuals along the way. Those with vision and sense of commitment hung on; devoting all their spare time to rehearsals. During the production camp in the second week of the July holidays the break came through. We all became a family and the action of the play began to take on a life of its own as the cast became more inventive, creative and daring. 'I Was a Teenage Jekyll and Hyde' was a popular choice. A light hearted look at youths struggle for a sense of identity. Crucible, crazed chemistry teacher had invented a formula to make himself more attractive and more intelligent. Courage failing him he persuaded down trodden Sylvester Jekyll to act as a guinea pig. Sylvester was immediately transferred into Hyde, a super cool handsome youth who was everything Sylvester wanted to be. The play follows his experiences and the eventual realisation that he should "be himself', and respect himself for who he really is. I should like to thank the members of staff who became involved, offering their expertise and support, Mrs. Ellis for her dedication and energy as musical director. Mr. Preshaw for sharing his experiences with the band, Miss Sgro for the effective costumes. Mr. Mulvey for front of house management. Mrs. Letizia and Mrs. De Vos for collecting and making props. Mrs. Geers and Mr. Stanton for set construction, Mr. Stengel for sound equipment and particularly Br. Kelly for his support throughout. If success is measured by the degree of energy and enthusiasm of the cast and the degree of response from the audience then the play was a resounding success: The hardest thing to do in the end was to pack up the costumes, dismantle the stage and lights and realise that it was all over. That is until next year!

SENIOR DEBATING This year's Senior Debating team was drawn from Year II. This has the advantage that next year we will have an experienced team but handicapped us this year as we were competing against more experienced Year 12 teams. A good team spirit did emerge as the competition, run by the W.A. Debating League, progressed. Even as we lost, Lachlan Longstaff kept the mood cheerful with his impromptu witticisms. The enthusiastic effort put in by team members into the preparation ensured that our defeats were by the narrowest of margins. This, and the quality of presentation, augur well for debating in 1989. Our thanks got to Mr. McIntyre and Mr. Mulvey for their support in helping us to prepare our arguments and coming along to see us in action. We are looking forward to a good year ahead! Back Row: S. Temby, L. Longstaff. Front Row: K. Stack, Mr. J. Mcintyre, C. D u n kerton.

MOCK TRIAL REPORT The Mock Trial Competition is run by the Law Society of W.A. to encourage interest in the law and its administration in W.A. Secondary schools. The competition takes the form of a mock court case in which civil or criminal cases are contested by two schools, one taking the role of the Crown or plaintiff and the other the defence. Each team is comprised of two barristers, two witnesses, a solicitor and a court official. They are assisted in their preparation by a practising lawyer and the case is heard and decided by a magistrate in a courtroom with all the procedures of legal etiquette being observed. This is the second year in which the competition has been run and our team certainly benefitted from its experience in 1987. We had our sights set on winning first our regional section against Safety Bay High, Melville High and P. L. e. In the first round, against Melville, our barristers Jason Antczak and Cliff Pereira successfully prosecuted a book thief. Jamie Ingram and Marc Coci gave evidence while Warrick Pike acted as solicitor and Nathan Verity as Magistrate's clerk. As the loser in the second round is eliminated we set about defending a driver who had been involved in an accident. Damian Golding joined the team and we managed to defeat Safety Bay.
The third round was the most difficult from a legal point of view. We had the task of proving negligence against a hospital defended by P .L.e. Jason Tandy and John Giallorenzo joined the team and once again we won our case and were granted damages (purely fictitious, alas!) . This win moved us into the regional finals, involving the ten schools surviving from over 80 entrants. Our case was to prosecute a motorist ¡ for abusing a parking inspector with South Fremantle acting as the defence. Our first meeting was unresolved as our magistrate failed to appear. We still enjoyed our afternoon tea, not liking to see food go to waste. The following week we met ia gain and South Fremantle put an end to our winning streak. They have since gone on to the Grand Final and we wish them well. But we'll be back next year with another team! Finally, our thanks go to our legal coach, Mr. Hodges, who advised us so sou~dly and motivated us with his .confidence, and to Mr. McIntyre for his help and encouragement throughout the competition.

JUNIOR DEBATING Team work, the discussion and agreement of strategies. Listening to the oppositions arguments and intelligently refuting them in favour of your own teams opinions make debating an excellent and worthwhile exercise. The Junior Debating Team enthusiastically entered into the competition and gave their opposing teams some very close calls. Winning one debate and drawing another they only lost the rest by very small margins. As inexperienced debators their efforts were creditable. Next year the lessons they learned will enable them to progress even . further and ensure more wins! Back Row: M. Cammilleri, O. Oi Tullio, G. Harding . Front Row: A. Hilton, Mrs. Hinks, N.

CHESS NOTES Picture twenty boys sitting in rapt concentration during their lunch-break, computing mathematical possibilities, analysing subtle variations and shifts in power and conducting serious scientific post-mortems after school hours; or, again, picture them simply playing and enjoying the world's best board-game - chess. Few, if any, games are capable of providing the variation and mental stimulation that chess offers; and what other indoor-sport combines so many of the features that make alert minds clearer and sharper ones more incisive? This year sa w the return of competitive chess to C. B. C. Fremantle. Eight boys from the Ellen Street campus competed in an inter-school competition organised by the Junior Chess Council of W.A. Many more spent up to four lunch breaks a week learning and mastering the game. The team had difficulties in the early games. Lack of previous match practice and a lack of appreciation of the need to develop some coherent strategies for us in the opening game told against our players. Unfortunately, we also drew games against schools that had had years of experience in both areas in the early qualifying rounds.
After four rounds e.B.e. had won only one of a possible sixteen games. The team and its manager did not lose hope though; and the players - to their credit continued to play, analyse and develop. Their work on technique development finally began to payoff, and we finished the season in a very positive way by winning six of the remaining eight games. This promises much for next year when we will enter with a stronger, more experienced group. More importantly, though, the boys will continue to develop their skills as individuals. Some have already entered tournaments as independent competitors and have earned ratings with the Chess Federation. Others will continue to enjoy the game socially. Whatever they choose to do with chess in the future, none will be the poorer for the experience that they have had this year. Brendan Mulvey, Chess Co-Ordinator

MUSIC '88
MUSIC COMMITTEE REPORT - 1988
I
I
The Music Committee's Annual General Meeting was held on the 24th November. On this occasion both Brother Kelly and Mr. Stengel, in their reports thanked the parents for their continuing support of the e.B.C. Music Programme. Special thanks were extended to Mrs. Cassie Morin, the retiring Chairperson after two years' service and to re-elected Secretary, Mrs. Geraldine Stack and Treasurer Mrs. Ann Street. 1988 proved to be another successful year for this Parent and Music Staff group. The Music Luncheon, the boys' Music Camp, the trip to the York Jazz Festival, the Musical Interlude, the Albany Tour and the Carols in the Courtyard were all functions and activities organised or supported by the Music Committee. Perhaps, though, the most important thing to come out of the monthly meetings is the opportunity for Teachers and Parents to share the pro blems, the joys and the progress of the many music programmes growing within the two school campuses. All music parents are invited to attend these meetings and share more closely in this aspect of their boys education. The Musical Interlude was again a highlight of the Music Committee's year. Held the first time on Family Day week-end in the Marquee, the anxiety about 'weather' that has plagued previous Interludes was removed. Another first at this Interlude was the inclusion of Senior Music Boys as performers in the evening's programme. They were a credit to themselves and their teachers. The Music Staff themselves, absolutely delighted the 150 plus people in the audience with their musical contribution which were at a very professional standard indeed. e.B.C. Fremantle really is growing in a very harmonious way! The Music Committee continued this year with its philosophy of gentle fund raising through e.B.e. Community functions and is proud to have contributed in a- small way to the purchase of new equipment which promotes the music programme. Sincere thanks are extended to the e.B.e. Parents and Friends and to Brother Kelly for continued support of the Committee's endeavours. The Music Committee will continue in 1989 under the capable leadership of Mrs. Yvonne Broome.

NOTES FROM YOUR MUSIC TEACHER In the past, these notes were of a more philosophical nature. This year, however, it will take the shape of an annual report, as we had a few maj or developments in the e.B.e. Music Department and some acknowledgements have to be made. In 1988 the music programme has taken a giant step forward. Tuckfield Street Campus has regained its musical vitality, mainly through the employment of additional music staff. Mr. Culver does all the classroom music (ie. theory and music appreciation) and conducts the School Choir, whereas Mr. Innes-Mills primarily looks after the instrumental side of things. Mr. Anning has taken the Junior Band (40 strong) under his wings and has them performing on a regular basis. After numerous performances at various school functions, they made their public debut at Princess May Theatre in front of a large appreciative audience including many proud parents. This year has also seen the introduction of Keyboard tuition into our music programme, which is ably conducted by our pianist 'extraordinaire' Mr. Campana a special talent and a great performer. No doubt you will see and 'hear' a lot more of him in the near future. TEE-Music is entering its second year and indications are that other Catholic Schools intend to follow the e.B.e. Fremantle Music Curriculum Guidelines. The addition of three new practice rooms to the existing main music rooms in Tuckfield Street as well as in Ellen Street helps us immensely to cope with the extra teaching load. Also the acquisition of new equipment (ie. musical instruments, keyboards, music stands, band uniforms, music-computer and other teaching aids) was welcomed by our music teaching staff. A great part of all this was made possible through a team effort by the school, the P . & F. Association and the Music Parents Committee. All our bands (Junior Band, Concert Band and Jazz Orchestra) were performing on numerous occasions throughout the year and our reputation as a music school is growing steadily. Some of the highlights of our activities this year include a most enjoyable music camp in May, the York Jazz Festival in September in which James Morrison (the Australian Jazz Musician of the Year) joined our Jazz Orchestra on stage during one of their performances, a concert at Government House in the presence of the Governor of W. A. Dr. Gordon Reid and of course the Musical Interlude in October, which this year became a showcase for some of our TEE-Music Students and also presented the debut of the e.B.e. Music Staff Ensemble. This annual interlude was the brainchild of the Music Committee, a body of many supportive music parents spearheaded in 1988 by President Cassy Morin, Vice President Yvonne Broome, Secretary Geraldine Stack a nd Treasurer Ann Street. For their neverending help and support (morally and financially) typing letters, making phone calls, helping at music camps and performances, making piano covers, acquiring band uniforms, driving buses, organising various fund-raising functions ... etc. etc . ... I would like to thank everyone involved with this Committee most sincerely on behalf of all the Music Staff.
It seems that in 1988, we have seen only the beginning of a development with enormous potential for growth. My sincere thanks to all the supporters of the e.B.e. Fremantle Music Programme.
Uwe Stengel, Head of the Music Department
MUSIC CAMP - 1988 After a break in the yearly tradition of Music Camps last year, the popular Music Camp was brought back this year. The venue was a new one, being the Senior School Campus instead of Tuckfield Street or Clontarf. At about 5.00 p.m. on Friday the 6th of May about 47 music students rolled up with sleeping bags, pillows and of course cases with instruments in them, many looked like they were there to live for weeks not three days. That night we had the lona Drama squad and band come for tea and afterwards show us what they are working on, which was a Musical 'H. M.S. Pinafore'. After they had given us a taste of what they do, it Was Geoff Stanley and Shaun Temby's turn to demonstrate to us that with a bit of practice even they could sound acceptable when singing. When our singing workshop had finished, it was our turn to give the girls a concert where both Concert Band and Jazz Orchestra played. After all the concerts and workshops were finished, it was time for Mr. Campana and ¡Mr. Culver to display their skills. Mr. Campana on keyboard and Mr. Culver on guitar. After they had left us with our ears ringing, it was time for supper and then bed. The morning started at half past six for some year 6, 7 and 8's who were awoken by Mr. Dobra for a nice early morning jog. It was breakfast at 7.30 a.m. and then into the days work . To start off the day, we had a workshop with Gary Ridge playing many different percussion instruments and Paul Millard playing saxophone. After they had shown us what they could do we had a lesson with saxophones going to Paul Millard, clarinets to Mr. Jim Cook, trumpets to Mr. Innes-Mills and rhythm section to Gary Ridge. We were given a few tips on how to improve our playing and technique. After a very full morning and a big lunch, we were all piled onto the school bus and on our way up to His Majesty's Theatre to see the South African Musical Group 'Amandla'. This was an e~cellent production and everyone enjoyed it. When the show was over, we all climbed back on the bus and rushed home for showers, snacks and Mass. We arrived back from Mass, had a big tea and settled into listening to Mark Cain a member from a band called ACj PVC which is a band using instruments made from PVC piping. Instruments ranged from drums to bass guitars to clarinets to flutes and even a didgeridoo. This workshop gave us ideas on how to make our own instruments and also some good ideas. After the workshop it was supper and a bit of a Jam session and then bed. Saturday night everyone slept well and there were not as many red eyes around as the night bHore. Today was the last day. After our last breakfast, it was time to set up the hall for the Mother's Day Concert. All three bands played and this was the highlight of the camp. Thanks go to the lona Band, Mr. Culver, Mr. Campana, Gary Ridge, Paul Millard, Jim Cook, Mark Cain from AC j PVC and the Mothers who kept our stomachs full. Thanks to Mr. & Mrs. Stack, Mr. Dobra for supervising. Special thanks go to Br. Kelly for the use of the Senior Campus and taking to the group to see Amandla. Most of all thanks to Mr. Stengel and the Music Committee, without whom the camp would not have been the success that it was. Nathan Fitzgerald

TASMANIA - MUSIC TOUR -REUNION On Saturday 30th July, the musicians who travelled to Tasmania had a reunion at Tuckfield Street to watch a video of the tour, look at the many albums of photos and to recount the things that happened on the trip. The night was also spent on looking back at how far we have come from being a relatively small band of beginners to becoming a band that plays a wide variety of Jazz arrangements. As it was the theme of the night to look back at our beginnings, the new pieces we played were contrasted to a few performances in the past. From these earlier performances, we can see that through a lot of hard work by everyone involved we have come quite a way from playing things like Pop Goes The Weasel. After these performances were over, we got ready to watch a different and often amusing show in the form of a video made while in Tasmania. The video had been compiled and edited by Shane Foley who came with us to Tasmania. This took up a lot of his time and effort and we would like to thank him for the work done. The video ran for about 50 minutes and it was lucky we all sat in a darkened room because some of the shots were something like candid camera. The video did show however, that everyone really enjoyed the trip. After viewing the video each person who came on the trip received a video as a lasting momento of the trip. Overall the night was a great success and we would like to thank Br. Kelly, Mr. Stengel, Shane Foley (who made the video) and Mrs. Fitzgerald who organised the screen.
Shane Foley is presented with a gift by Sr. Kelly and Mr. Stengel for the work he has done.

TEE MUSIC CAROLS IN THE COURTYARD The 1988 'Carols in The Courtyard', the e.B.e. Music Committee's third attempt, was this time a great success. The weather was perfect, the crowds poured in and the music was a delight. The Junior Band set the mood with a delightful Christmas Potpourri. Then the very talented Staff Musicians alternated witli the combined Senior Band to provide entertainment and accompaniment for the carol singing. Lack of word sheets due to unprecedented numbers was the only hassle, but singers shared or improvised in the true Christmas Spirit. A wonderful start to Christmas week. Mrs. M.

YORK JAZZ FESTIVAL On Saturday morning September 24th, the CRe. Jazz Orchestra left for its now annual visit to the York Jazz Festival. We arrived in York at mid-day and settled in at the comfortable York Tennis Club. After accustomizing ourselves to the local scene, we got ready for our first performance at the Avon Lounge. Outside the Hotel we were introduced to James Morrison, the Australian Jazz Musician of the Year. "What instruments do you play?" he asked. "We're all drummers". replied Martin, "Hass merchant" Egan. "My brother used to play saxophone", he replied "but he quit music and took up the drums". We entered the hotel for our first gig. A large smokefilled room full of Jazz fans greeted us and we didn't disappoint them. They warmly received and enjoyed our performance as we whet their appetites for what was to follow. After packing up, we joined the crowd and waited for James Morrison. When he came onto the stage, brilliant young clarinetist Andrew Firth followed. This was as Mr. Stengel described 'a once in a lifetime experience'. Two of Australia's best musicians performing together and what a display it was. During Basin Street Blues a duel broke out in which both musicians attempted to outplay each other. Their fingers seemed to move at the speed of light and the sound was amazing. When a stalemate was reached, underhand tactics came into play. James Morrison blew a tune in his mouthpiece through a glass of beer and Andrew Firth replied by refusing to give up the spotlight. At the conclusion of the tune, a spellbound crowd gave a standing ovation. After a few more numbers, we returned to the Tennis Club for a late tea, where South Australian Mrs. Hincks reminded us of Andrew Firth's home state.
On Sunday the band played in the Park only a short walk from the Main Street. After a few songs rain stopped play and we abandoned the performance. During lunch Mr. Stengel set about organising another performance. He noticed many people were walking up and down the Main Street, hesitant to pay entry into the various Jazz Concerts. We obtained permission to set up in the middle of the closed off Main Street. HUNDREDS of people crowded around and cheered for the band. One old boy of CB.C. even bought the band a carton of beer (anyone knowing the whereabouts please contact the school!) After an encore, we left for Mass followed by tea and a quick Jam session. Monday began with a more successful performance in the Park. In the afternoon, we again played in the A von Lounge. The Band performed well and the crowd enjoyed it as much as we did. For our last number James Morrison joined us and played a horror solo that won't easily be forgotten. The York Jazz Festival was a great success and thanks goes to Br. Kelly, Mr. Dobra and Mr. Stengel.

The C. B. C. Concert Band Tour of Albany commenced at Ellen Street, on Saturday December 10th with celebration of Mass in the hall. Celebrant was Fr. Douglas. After pocket money was collected by Br. Kelly, the bus was loaded under the direction of our driver Mr. Vince Powell. At 8.45 a.m. right on time the bus left Fremantle and after stops at Williams for morning tea and Kooginup for lunch, we arrived in Albany at 2.00 p.m. After a brief look around we headed for our beautiful campsite, the Quaranup Youth Camp. There we were met by the warden, Mr. Cliff Meredith and his wife Norma, who was our excellent cook. We settled in and did a short exploring trip. Our first concert was the same night at St. Joseph's Catholic High School. Although the audience was fairly small, it was a very enthusiastic one and the evening was rated a success. After a quick rehearsal of hymns the following morning we arrived at a church in time to play for 10.00 a.m. Mass. We performed well and received a standing ovation after Mass. We played Christmas Carols for another 20 minutes then changed in the bus and headed for Bluff Knoll in the Stirling Ranges. Most of us accepted the challenge of climbing it. The path was easy to follow and the first boys reached the top in about I Y2 hours. Last to reach the top were bus driver Vince and a couple of Year II's who wish to remain anonymous. On the way down there was some debate about which path to take. Led by Ken Gavranich a dozen or so boys suddenly realised they were in the wrong areas and had to fight their way through thick scrub to find their way back to the main path. The trip home was a quiet one and everybody was happy to go to bed early that night. Monday morning and everyone was rudely awakened by Mr. Innes-Mills who decided to practice 'Reveille' on his trumpet at about 6.00 a.m . We gave a successful lunchtime performance at Albany High School where a large group of girls took a liking to the band. It seemed that it was the musicians rather than the music that was silch an attraction. The Principal of the school Mrs. J . Lynch presented all of us with keyrings and spoons. After the presentation we packed up and beat a hasty retreat down the road to the Lions Community Centre where we performend for the aged and disabled . After our performa'nce we shared afternoon tea with them. Everyone involved got a lot of joy out of the afternoon. Back at camp Vince the bus driver killed a SNAKE to save us from certain death. It turned out to be a Rockpython but he lost no friends over the incident. Tuesday morning, 7.00a.m. NOT AGAIN MR. INNES-MILLS, this time it was an extended version of 'Danny-Boy' on the trumpet. We have a busy day ahead of us. Mr. Stengel caught a small shark with his bare hand before we set out to take in the sights of Albany. We visited the Gap, the Bridge, the Blow Holes, the Whaling Station, the Amity and finally ended up at Emu Point where we had been promised a staff vs students cricket game, but the teachers forfeited the match by sneaking off to the coffee shop. Later, Br. Kelly joined our game and put in a good effort. During the afternoon Mr. Innes-Mills
collected cockles with us which we had for supper that night. Mr. Culver enjoyed them a bit too much - and paid the penalty. Once again Mr. Innes-Mills gives us a fine example of the art of trumpet playing the next morning at 5.30!!! After a thorough clean-up we had breakfast. Mr. Stengel made a presentation to Mr. Cliff Meredith and his wife, Norma our superb cook. The bus was loaded and we set off on our way home to Fremantle where we arrived at 2.30 p.m. After we unloaded the bus Br. Kelly presented the teachers with gifts and Vince our driver received a book on "How to identify Australian Dangerous Animals!" Although the boys ranged from Years 7 to II everyone got on really well and a lot of credit for this must go to Br. Kelly who directed group sessions in which we all got to know each other better. Thanks for a great five days go to Br. Kelly, Mr. Stengel, Mr. Culver, Mr. Innes-Mills and Vince our driver. Also, Mr. & Mrs. Meredith who looked after us so well.

SPORT A.C.C. SWIMMING 1988 C.B.e. Fremantle again showed improvement at the A.e.e. Interschool Swimming Carnival. The squad, comprising 57 boys, performed extremely well following an intense five weeks of training. The Junior Boys finished 4th, while the small squad of seniors finished a creditable 6th. The boys aggregate placed e.B.e. Fremantle 5th, an improvement of one place on 1987. The Combined Aggregate with sister school, Santa Maria, placed us 3rd, and earnt the Fremantle Swimmers the compliments of the Santa Maria coaching staff. The swimmers commenced training in week 2 of term 1, 3 days after returning to school. They were given the opportunity to train 8 times a week. The effort required from the boys was considerable and most responded in an extremely positive fashion. The senior swimmers led the team demonstrating a good deal of character in the pool. The juniors responded with good numbers attending all sessions and training with purpose.
The morning swimmers were treated to breakfast prepared by Mrs. Carter and ably assisted by teaching staff. All swimmers and coaches would like to thank all those who assisted in the preparation of the meals, and, for being an integral part of the A.e.e. Swimming Team. Swimming is a growing sport at e.B.C., and it is only with time and a large degree of consistent effort that there will be any significant improvement. The talent exists, and recent years have seen gradual enhancement of this ability. It is envisaged that greater interest in Interschool Swimming will be displayed in 1989, and that e.B.C. Fremantle will further develop as a competitive force in the pool. Mr. C. Barns

A.C.C. SENIOR CRICKET This year's Senior Cricket side played a mixed season - on a number of occasions the team played against some very strong opposition and were outclassed. However, at other times, the side put together some very good cricket. Opening batsmen Simon Bazdaric and the technically correct Domenic Scaffetta were responsible for some sound opening partnerships. They were supported by Captain David Vitali who proved to be an attacking player at Number 3. In the bowling department, the team relied heavily on the opening pair of David Vitali and medium-pacer Mark Carter for the majority of breakthroughs. However, David Pensabene also proved to be a handy wicket-taker on occasions. All members of the side should be congratulated for the way in which they were prepared to train during the week prior to the Tuesday afternoon games. Mr. S. Henderson
SENIORS (DIVISION B) This year e.B.e. had a very successful season in the A .C.e. Senior Cricket - Division B. We went through the season undefeated. Our only real worry was against Mazenod at their home ground. We went in to bat and, uncharacteristically, scored less than 200 runs in the allotted 40 overs - well below our potential. However, our bowlers did an excellent job and bundled out the opposition for a mere 75 runs. Mazenod turned out to be our main rivals and we had to play them in the finals. We batted first and scored 240 for the loss of8 wickets in the allotted 40 overs. Mazenod was dismissed for 146. Both teams played the game in good spirit. Mazenod must be commended on their good sportsmanship. Some outstanding performances during the season were: Peter Geers - 140 vs. Corpus Christi Aaron Milbourne - Hat Trick vs. All Saints Andrew Baldoni - 59 not out off 6 overs vs. Mazenod Greg Norton - 12 wickets for the season. Many thanks goes to Mr. Rose'Meyer for training us and also for transport. Andrew Baldoni

C.B.C. Fremantle has earnt the reputation of being very competitive on the basketball court. In 1988 they were able to maintain that reputation by finishing 4th in the A-Division and winning in the B-Division pennant. The A-Division Boys managed to secure fair wins from seven games with 2 losses and a forfeit due to camps. The closeness of the competition was such that, had the boys won their last game, four teams would have finished on top of the ladder on equal points. However, due to some very good basketball from Corpus Christi, and poor team work by Fremantle, the A-Division was soundly beaten. There were many good performers for Fremantle in this team, but generally, not consistent enough. Many boys were disappointed with the final placing, but they can take heart in the level of effort given throughout the season. The B-Division boys produced resounding victories in almost all of their games. With one or two excellent players and a backup of6 or 7 very good players, this team proved unbeatable throughout the season. So competent was this team, that they even recorded victories against Fremantle's A-Division during a training session. The final was the only game in which Fremantle were placed under any pressure. At half time, ' C.B.C. Fremantle led All Saints by a mere 3 points. There was an air .of complacency in the Fremantle team which was not really countered until well into the second half. The actual score indicated that Fremantle were the better of the two teams by a good margin . Br. P.B. Kelly

TENNIS Fremantle again demonstrated the variety of sporting talent present at the school with excellent results in the A.C.C. Tennis. The A-Division boys finished second but only because of a smaller percentage than Lumen Christi. The B-Division, although not as high in the final tally, were still very competitive finishing 5th out of 9 teams. The original final A-Division score board actually placed c.B.C. Fremantle fourth behind Lumen Christi, St. Norberts and All Saints. However, due to the incorrect recording of our score against Lumen Christi, and following its correction, Fremantle were destined to play Lumen Christi in the final. The score book tells that Lumen Christi were far too strong, and that was the case. C.B.C. Fremantle was not able to repeat its performance of earlier in the year and conceded top place to Lumen Christi.

SQUASH
The B-Division were no less competitive but completed the season in seventh position. With two wins and a draw from seven games they were never going to be one of the top 3 teams. However, their effort and dedication were no less than that of the A-Division. All boys are to be congratulated on their sportsmanship and the way in which they approached the game. It also seems appropriate at this time to extend a note of thanks to Mrs. Stack who supervised the boys for each of their games. The giving of your time was greatly appreciated by all boys. Br. P.B.

INTER ATHLETICS REPORT The 1988 season was a reasonably successful one for the Senior Soccer side - finishing third behind the strong St. Brendan's team and Corpus Christi. Games played against these two teams were the only ones which the side lost. David Vitali proved to be a very good team leader and also a fine contributor in defence. Other solid players . throughout the season included the skilful Domenic Scaffetta, Sandro Schiliro, Daniele Ciampini, Jason Lang, Anthony Sims and John Marinovich. On a number of occasions, particularly against the strong sides in the competition, the team was unable to finish off some excellent mid-field play with the goals necessary for victory. Mr. S. Henderson
e.B.e. Fremantle acquitted itself well in this years A. e. C. Athletics Carnival. Following a consistent season of training many boys performed personal bests on what proved to be a moderately successful day for e.B.C. Fremantle. At the conclusion of the day our Junior Boys finished 7th with the Senior Boys a creditable 4th. The Boys aggregate placed e.B.e. 5th, uP ' one place from 1987. The combined aggregate with Santa Maria saw e.B.e. Fremantle/ Santa Maria finish 3rd. There was a large number of good performances from the Fremantle boys. Some of the days highlights included. Simon Gallacher - 1st in Open High Jump Luke Dullard - I st in Open 400m Damian Ziegelaar - I st in U / 15 Javelin As has come to be expected of F.remantle boys, they all gave of their best on the day. Their best of this year, could be improved on a more consistent and concentrated approach to training. It is this that the school will be aiming for in 1989. In addition more involvement from the Year 8's is also sought and means of encouraging this are currently being examined. C.B.e. Fremantle has shown itself to possess a high level of talent in the sport field . There appears also to be a large amount of untouched talent in boys who do not participate in physical activity on a regular basis. 1989 will also endeavour to seek out these boys and assist their whole development through the enjoyment of sport.

FOOTBALL
U /14's FOOTBALL
c.B.e. Fremantle experienced mixed fortunes in the A.C.e. Football Competition in 1988. With a good deal of talent in the first 25 players, we were not able to develop a good level of consistency and cohesion. This was due mainly to the unavailability of most boys to be able to meet to train together. Mazenod and St. Norberts established that they were the teams to beat. Our first encounter with both these teams showed that we too could be a force in 1988. However a lack of discipline and a lack of cohesion in the forward line meant that opportunities went begging. The remaining teams Corpus Christi, S t. Brendans, All Saints and Lumen Christi were sound victories for Fremantle. At the conclusion of the qualifying round , Fremantle finished 3rd which meant we had to play St. Norberts (2nd) to Mazenod - the final. Again the effort was pleasing but the lack of training showed weaknesses to our game. With a 19 point victory to St. N orberts our season finished with Fremantle 3rd on the ladder. I would like to pay special tribute to all boys in the team for the efforts from week to week. It would be unfair to highlight individual efforts suffice to say, all boys played to the best of their ability.
The 1988 season saw the U / 14's football team finish the season on a triumphant note with victory in the PLATE Grand Final. This win was the sides 10th su~cessive victory, following an indifferent first half of the season where the team could manage only one win from the first eight games of the year. This was a definite indication of the improvement shown, from an individual and team point of view, throughout the season. Nicholas Sloan was an excellent Captain and also an outstanding player for the team during the season. Other fine contributors included Kurt Shepherd, James Rodrigues, David Simms, Grant McLaughlin, Fred Rodriguez, Matthew Gill and ¡ Brad Marshall. Alex Farfan, Marco Piscicelli and Nathan Johansen all showed tremendous improvement in their play throughout the season. Sincere thanks to Mr. Jeff Sloan for his efforts as Team Manager, and also to Mr. Mick Rea for his assistance. Thank you also to the other fathers for their help with the goal-umpiring, and also to all the parents for supporting the team so well. Mr. S. Henderson, Coach

YEAR 11/12 HOCKEY TEAMS
YEAR TEN HOCKEY
If a season can be judged purely on enjoyment then 1988 was a most successful year for our Year 11 / 12 boys who fielded two teams in the Saturday morning Metropolitan Competition and one in the Tuesday A.CC Senior School Competition. The number one team had brilliant players who gave the opposition little respite. They scored over a hundred goals while conceding only three. Yet they played a friendly, skilful game which never left the opposition feeling demoralised . The number two team seemed to enjoy the season as much as their more expert counterparts while rarely tasting victory. Congratulations to the No.1 Team who won the Saturday morning Grand Final with a winning score of 3-0 over St. Marks. They were runners up to Newman College in the A.CC. Competition. It would be remiss to write a report for the season and fail to mention our enthusiastic, sporting group of parents. They and our team managers made playing so much more enjoyable.
This year the year 10 Hockey team had a reasonably successful year in the Saturday morning competition. We won six of our twelve matches. The standard of our game improved against the stronger teams and even though we lost some of these matches they were played in good spirit ,and we learnt much from them. At the end of the season we were fourth in our zone and were fortunate to playoff the Quarter Finals. Unfortunately we were without our regular goalie, and our normal right wing put on the pads to help us out. We held the opposition to a scoreless first half. Due to a lapse in concentration in the first minute of the second half we allowed the opposition to score and try as we might we were unable to equalise. The team is to be congratulated on playing the game in good spirit. Many thanks go to our coach Mr. Rose'Meyer, and to the many parents who supported and encouraged us every weekend.

ROWING REPORT With the loss of some fine rowers at the beginning of the and only the memory of past victories to keep our splfltS up, the season started slowly. The coach and myself soon picked up the pieces and formed a new four which had a mighty task in front of them, that ofkeep}ng up the fine rowing history ofC.B.e. Nobody lost hope though and training began immediately, and under the fine instructing abilities of our coach the crew soon became quite an admirable team. The second semester found the crew with one of its old members again and before long we were in fighting spirits and shape. Though we could not boast entering a Regatta, the Captain Cook ferry proved to be a willing competitor and we lost every time! ye~~
The last term came with the introduction of a new crew member and a new rowing machine, we had great enjoyment with both of them, firstly the new member who was requested to enter an initialisation programme (we pushed him in the river), and secondly, with the rowing machine, we timed the rating of each member and found there to be considerable competition. The club house has ' recently undergone some upgradings with a new gym which we have already started to use . N ext year we will continue training and hopefully enter some Regattas. Thanks must go to Mr. Revell who has supported us throughout the year. If you think you would like to join us contact Mr. Revell or myself. Stephen Toole, Captain

A.C.C. CROSS-COUNTRY The Annual A.e.C. Cross-Country was held on Tuesday 30th August at the superb Clontarf facilities . The 3500m course is very taxing with fast grass surfaces, winding sandy sections and a water hazard. Approximately 2800 athletes represented both city and country schools in an efficiently organised event. Most of our 36 boys had trained on the course two weeks earlier and so were familiar with the terrain especially the water jump. But the mass start of 200 athletes is an experience that only race-day can give and although there were some falls and minor injuries all boys gave their best on the day. Best individual performance was by Wade Jarvis with a third place in the open division and in the teams the U / 15s came first. With a fourth place in the boy's aggregate we combined with Santa Maria (second in the girl's aggregate) to win the overall aggregate for the second year.

CAMPS 1988 YEAR 9M/9C CAMP On Tuesday the 10th May, the Year 9C and 9 M classes left for a four day camp at the larrahdale 1.R.D. Village. We arrived there at lunch time after a pleasant hours drive. We unpacked and settled in quickly to our new surroundings. After lunch, our teachers put us through a torture test, a one and a half hour walk to a National Park and a fishing spot. Unluckily there were no fish to be caught, but we all had a great time playing football and having a tug-a-war contest between the two classes. Obviously the walk didn't effect us, and we were up the next morning at 5.30 a.m. During the days that followed, we participated in a number of enjoyable activities, including quiz nights, videos, a walk to a natural waterfall and a trip to a nearby dairy farm. All who participated in these events would agree they were very worthwhile. Overall the camp was a great success and was enjoyed by all the boys who took part in it. Special thanks to Mrs. Faria, who provided our meals, to all the mothers who helped, and not forgetting Mrs. Cooney and Mr. Moran. Mark Pensabene and Nick lenkins
Year 10's boarding the ferry for Rotto.
YEAR 10 CAMP The 1988 Year 10 Camp to Rottnest Island was a memorable and enjoyable experience for this member of the touring party, as it was my first trip to "Rotto". From start to finish I was not disappointed as the beauty of the Island , the quokkas, the magnificent beaches and coastlines were all new to me. For the students visiting the Island for the first time they would have shared my feeling . of adventure, departing from Fremantle docks on the first morning, and in exploration of the Island. For those students who had been to Rottnest before, the experiences of community living meant all left the camp with new experiences gained and ventured . Mr. S. Pill

YEAR 11 CAMP Our Year 11 Camp held at Lake Cooloongup in March proved to be a valuable experience for the 110 students who attended: besides the opportunity for personal selfdiscovery and development there took place an evident growth in friendship and cooperation. At the camp some of us were fortunate to have first use of some newly completed "house" accommodation; for the not-so-lucky there were the old style dormitories. While the beds may have brought some "wry" comments there was no doubting the quality of the food. Tasty meals were planned by Mrs. Faria and Mrs. Croll and prepared by a group of volunteer mothers led by Mrs. Croll and Mrs. Taranto. To these very generous people we owed a lot. The daily routine began with breakfast at 7.30 a.m. and included four Working Sessions each of an hour's duration. Most sessions took place in groups of 10-12 with one Staff member to each group. While four such sessions in a day was a little tiring the groups worked well together. Moreover the physical demands did not deter some hardy individuals from rising at the crack of dawn (or before it!) to try the early surf. Thanks to Mr. Barns for sacrificing his sleep! The recreation periods allowed for use of the swimming pool as well as the facilities for tennis, basketball, table tennis, etc. On the final evening the Mass celebrated in a particularly reflected and meaningful way by Fr. R. Smith was a memorable experience. The celebration was enhanced by the presence of many family members who availed of the invitation to attend ~ Throughout the four days of the camp a happy spirit of friendship and cooperation prevailed. This together with the getting to know others better (Staff members, too!) and the more serious work done left us feeling that our time had been well spent. Our sincere thanks go to the Staff members who organised the camp, tothe mothers who looked after us so well and to Mr. Geers who actually (and courageously) offered his services as a group leader.

THE JUNIOR CAMPUS HOUSE In 1901 the Oblate Fathers in Fremantle were seeking for a community to take charge of a High School there. This coincided with our Congregation's desire for a place near the sea. On the 18th of October of that year the Sisters of Our Lady of the Missions found a suitable building in Tuckfield Street, Fremantle known as "RIVERVIEW". ' The building was already being used as a boarding school for girls by a family ofladies, the Misses Bird, who held it on lease from Mr. Mayhew, the American Consul. As soon as the lease expired the Sisters purchased "Riverview" and on the 22nd of July the school was blessed and opened by His Lordship, Bishop Gibney. The school enrolment on that date was five pupils. Over the years the numbers of students increased. The school even received boarders. With the outbreak of war and the threat of the Japanese, it was considered unsafe to continue the school at Tuckfield Street. The pupils dispersed to Narrogin and Morine Rock and the Sisters moved to 224 Canning Highway and they continued to teach at a temporary school in King Street. The convent buildings were taken over as a military hospital.
In 1946 the High School was reopened and a little later the house became a Juniorate known as "Virgo Potens". The numbers in the school now necessitated more space and work was begun on a new school. This was completed the following year and officially blessed and opened under the title of Our Lady of the Missions. The J uniorate was closed in 1968 and the building became a residence for the Sisters and housed the Archives of the Australian Province of the Order. A further block of school buildings was built, blessed and opened by His Grace, Archbishop Goody in 1975. This school was closed in 1980 and the following year the Christian Brothers leased the site for the Primary section of their College. Two years later the Year 8 classes moved to Tuckfie1d Street and the campus became a Junior High School. With the closing of the convent ~ n 1986 the Archives were removed to Highgate. The Christian Brothers bought the school site. "Riverview" was then used for Music and Speech and Drama classes. In 1987, after considerable planning, work was begun in improving and enlarging playing space and gardens on the campus. During the mid-year holidays in 1988, "Riverview" was demolished. During the next school holidays work was begun on levelling the old "Riverview" as part of the renovation of the entire northern area of the site. Work is planned to be completed by the start of school in 1989.

J .S.H.A.A. CROSS-COUNTRY e.B.e. Junior School competed in the J.S.H.A.A. Cross Country. We competed against another 14 schools or more. The first race was the 8 and 9 year olds. e.Re. had no one competing in it. Next came the 10 year olds race and we had 5 year 5's competing. The boy who won was from John XXIII who had a convincing win over the rest of the field. The first boy to cross the line for e.Re. was Nigel Bridgeman. After the ten year olds came the II and overs. The boy who won it was from Hale College. He won by a little distance. The e.Re. boy to cross the line was Adam Jenkins in 13th place out of the field of 60 boys behind was Grant Jarvis in 24th place. After all the e.B.e. boys had finished we all collected our things and waited to hear the presentations. After the presentations we all started to board the bus. I'd like to thank Mr. Holtham for accompanying us at the Cross Country. Overall it was a very enjoyable day. and best placings were:
11 and over: Adam Jenkins - 13th Grant Jarvis - 24th Gavin Neesham - 32nd Aidan Casey - 34th Stephen Maher - 36th 10 year olds: Nigel Bridgeman - 36th John Casey - 44th Kieron Lawlor - 45th Fernando DeFlorenca - 47th Steven Maisano - 48th
PRIMARY SCHOOL CAMPS YEAR 7 CAMP - POINT PERON On the 19th April 1988 the Year 7 class went to Point Peron Sport and Recreation Camp. We all arrived at school in top physical condition. Soon the bell went but we did not go in. Instead we helped pack the bus and bring food out. When everyone had put their bags in Mr. Fitzgerald's trailer, we hit the bitumen and set off to Point Peron. The bus trip was exciting. Mr. Holtahm and Mr. Cortopasi knew exactly where to go, so the bus trip went along smoothly. When we arrived the first thing we did was help unpack the bus. We used skateboards to carry the goods, that made the job easier for all of us . Soon everyone raced to the beach. The water was shallow so we went out about 500m. In the afternoon we went to the Kwinana Grain Terminal. When we went inside the Admin. Building our guide showed us a 3-D map of the Terminal. From there she took us to where all the grain is stored. It is stored in huge annexes with big holes that suck all the grain in. Next she took us to where the trains deposit the grain. We then went up to the top of the terminal in a big elevator used for taking heavy machinery. We cou~d see all the way to Perth up there. We then went down III the elevator to a canteen where we received a free drink of "Refresh". After we had finished our drinks we saw a movie all about grain in W.A. When we arrived back to camp everyone was completely bushed. Next morning we left for Penguin Island . Everyone thought that this excursion would be so boring, most of us didn't bring our boogie boards. We made a big mistake! Well I didn't, I borrowed someone else's. The waves were 15ft or more. Everyone bodysurfed . It was a bit choppy so it wouldn't have been any good for surf-boards. That ~ight some boys went fishing while about 5 others stayed at the campsite. The boys who stayed back played a game called 'CHOCOLATE FEAST'. Next morning we got up and left for Garden Island Naval Base. We saw the submarine escape unit, where the sailors living quarters are and where the first settlers in W.A. dug a well. In the afternoon we went to the deer park. There are two types of deer at the park. Fallow deer and Red deer. We were all allowed to feed and pet the deer which was a new experience to most of us. On the last day we packed up and went to a park for lunch. After lunch we had a game of soccer. Dennis' team won Marcel's team lost. Michael Fishbourn'e, Year 7
YEAR 5 MANJEDAL SCOUT CAMP On 17th August Year 5 had their camp at Manjedal Scout Camp. Mr. Casey drove the bus and everyone enjoyed the trip. We spent three days there doing various things like cricket, chasey, hand-tennis and bush hi~es. We had a swim in the lake although the water was freezlllg cold. We then went on the commando-course and that was an enjoyable activity. When we got back from the commando-course we went for our showers and then had Mass around a camp fire. Father Richard from Rockingham celebrated the Mass. On the second night our teacher Mr. Sta Maria got angry at us because we were making too much noise! On the last day we got up quickly and packed quickly. Mr. Sta Maria decide? to take us to Point Walter for a picnic. We played vanous games and had ham and salad rolls for lunch. We all boarded the bus and then returned to school. It was an enjoyable and successful camp. (We would like to t~an~ Mr. Sta Maria, Mr. Casey, Mr. and Mrs. CammIilen, Mrs. Richardson and Mrs. Faria who all made this camp possible and enjoyable.) Joseph Terrible Jonathan Broome Kieron Lawlor
YEAR 8 CAMP Three classes (8N, 8W and 8B) attended the Lake Cooloongup Camp from the 24-28 October 1988. The excellent facilities of the camp site were enjoyed by all the boys. Activities at the camp included the flying fox, mini golf, pool, table tennis, cricket, tennis, skateboarding, basketball and trampolining. As well as these, the students enjoyed several athletic competitions designed to "tire out" the students ... it tired the parents and teachers but not the boys! The three classes, at different times, travelled to horse riding, canoeing, lantern stalks and fishing. Canoeing was a favourite of the boys. Mr. Hine, an expert canoeist, led the parties on three separate days to the Murray River. Amazingly, all three classes completed the "treacherous" course without a single accident although, at one stage, Gerald Croll decided it would be quicker to get out and walk, leaving his partner to fend for himself - he was persuaded back into the canoe. Mr. Carrigg offered to run the flying fox for a "little while" on the first day - he was still there, assisting the boys, on the last day of camp. The boys found the wide range of activities to be sufficient to occupy them for a whole week. I thank the parents and staff who assisted in making the camp a very great success. In particular, I thank Mrs. Faria for her friendship and hard work in catering for the students. Mr. T. Nastasi
On Monday 24th October we were assigned for our first mission, our mission was to reach the top of the sand dune where a lantern had been placed, boys in camouflaged clothes loaded their torches with 'D' size batteries and were ready to go into combat. As a group of boys crawled through the bushes they were caught in the crossfire of torch beams. Now there were very few boys left, our mission was nearly complete. Then during the last seconds of our mission some boys made it to the peak of that dune. All boys survived that ordeal. This was the end of our first (of many) tour of duty. We awoke early on Wednesday morning, about 5.30 a.m., and ate a hearty meal, (it could be our last), excitedly we boarded the bus, we chatted nervously about the day ahead, all of a sudden "bang!" a rock smashed the bus windscreen, this catastrophe actually helped to ease the tension which had been mounting. We finally arrived at a disused granite quarry in Orange Grove. Our instructors from "Adventure Out" made us feel comfortable as they explained how each piece of equipment worked. When Terry told us that the ropes could support two Holden cars we felt much better. Our first challenge was to descend a 25ft nursery cliff. This was really scary, as each boy went over the edge for the first time, he tried to show a calm face, but had to admit later that he had been frightened, from here we went on to face three other challenges, one, a 55ft verticle drop, two, a flying fox over a 60ft ravine and three, a 11 ft cliff with a 60ft free-fall section. Each challenge was faced and met, but were nowhere near as hard as the first 25ft nursery cliff. As we said our thanks and farewell to Terry, Rick, Jim, Frank, Peter and John we all felt just like Adam Calginari who said "This is the best thing I have ever done in my life!" After a week of early mornings, active outings and late nights we were sort of glad to be going home. We must thank Mr. Day, Mr. Mangano and Mrs. Appleby for all their help on camp and also Mr. Van Dongen and Mr. Hendon for showing us that the world really is wonderful. The Boys of 8 H
