]P> R.][ N C][ JP>A]L f § ]~]E JP> 0) ]R.lr 1996 was the special year of Edmund Rice. It was a time to acknowledge the difference that the life of one man made to his own country of Ireland and to the world - the life of a man who was husband, father, widower, businessman, educator, rei igious brother and founder. Undoubtedly the highlight of the year was the beatification of Edmund on October 6 by Pope John Paul II in Rome, an event attended by two of our staff members. Our local celebration on August 29 at the Entertainment Centre involving students from CBC, Aquinas and Trinity College, Bindoon, Tardun and Clontarf was also of great significance.
Technology When parents visit a secondary school before making decisions about their child's education, a common question is 'What about computers?' Most parents are satisfied if the Principal is able to show them a room or two which is occupied by banks of computers. However 'computers' are only the visible sign of deeper changes taking place in the world of education as technology impacts on it. Over the last century the frontiers of knowledge have been extended at ever-increasing rates in the world of science, and this knowledge has impacted on human living as never before. Discoveries in the world of matter and energy represented by Physics took us into the Nuclear Age. After World War II, it was the study of materials in Chemistry which led to new synthetics becoming part of everyday life. Now the world of knowledge and the processing of information is sweeping over us. The next impact will come from Biology and will challenge our taken-forgranted understanding of the nature of the human species.
The change taking place now is as deep and as significant as the impact of the Industrial Revolution on previously established patterns ofliving and is to do with the way we organise knowledge, the way we understand it, and the way we apply it. These deeper changes are about the fundamental ways in which a school operates.
In this changing world, what do we want for our students?One suggestion is that schools will want to produce students who show that they: - are able to critically appreciate the world around them - are able to fit easily into a knowledge based society
- are highly literate and numerate - understand and are comfortable with all aspects of technology
What about the boys? Two years ago I wrote about this ¡question which now is often being raised in the daily papers. Somehow in these days education for boys has become the loser. The experience of co-educational schools - by far the majority of schools in Australia - is that boys are being left behind. Much of the discussion around the education of boys has focused on the negatives: youth suicides, truancy and discipline problems, violence and aggression, risktaking behaviours of all kinds, academic failure and under-achievement. Overwhelmingly, it's boys! Yet here at CBC, boys take part enthusiastically in music and art as well as sport, showing great talent and enjoyment of these different opportunities. As our boys leave school at the end of Year 12 or earlier (and our current retention rates are above the national average), almost all move to something worthwhile whether it is in the area of further study, employment, traineeships or apprenticeship. And almost all express their appreciation for having been at this school.
Perhaps in an environment where girls are absent there is no need for boys to be embarrassed about the shame ofloss offace, nor to be driven by the urge to impress. Here teachers express what is good about educating and teaching boys. Last year a study of science teaching in WA Government high schools looked at the levels of achievements from combined class and single gender groups. Were there any differences? Yes, there were, but the researchers were puzzled by a lack of consistency in their results. What the study did show is that where teachers allowed for differences in ways of learning, varied their teaching strategies and made use of the energy of boys, then good results were achieved for all groups. The study concluded that competent, enthusiastic teaching - and understanding the differences between boys and girls - does make a difference.
Catholic schools exist for many purposes. A common and fundamental purpose is to educate people not only in academic fields but also as spiritual beings, aware of their own and others' dignity, alive to God in others, and respectful of our world and their time in it.
This work with boys does not stop with boys, we know, but affects the education of girls, families and future communities.

On 7 October 1996 the Beatification of Edmund Rice was held in Rome and I am pleased that the Board was able to support the Deputy Principal, Mr. Sandro Sandri in being at the ceremony and also having the opportunity to visit Edmund's birth place in Waterford.
At the commencement of 1996, the Board lost the services ofBr. Shanahan who took up duties as leader of the Holy Spirit Province of the Christian Brothers. On the positive side we welcomed to the Board Br. John Marks a trustee of the Christian Brothers, Mr. Martin Lowry who is a life member of the Old Boys Football Club and Dr. Roland Bovell formerly of the Education Department, WA, and Edith Cowan University; Inspector Pat O'Connell will be retiring from the Board after many years of valuable service and on behalf of other board members I thank him for his contribution particularly as Secretary to the Board.

Association has been operational over the last four years, has met regularly and has assisted the school in several areas.
One of the roles of the Association has been to provide support to the College in whatever form it is able to and your Committee is pleased to be able to represent all Old Boys in this endeavour. We personally invite all past students, regardless of the length of time they attended CBC Fremantle, to join the current financial members in helping to support both spiritually and materially the Associations aims and goals.
As President, I have been fortunate to have a great Committee consisting of the following Old Boys: Kevin 0 'Brien, Kevin Cant, George Ayres, Graham Taylor, Jerry Gerovich, Ken Doherty and Peter Christie. Thank you for all your hard work and enthusiasm.
At present we are looking to the Centenary of the school in 2001 and planning various activities that will provide the opportunity for Old Boys to catch up with former classmates.

Another year at CBC has drawn to a close. With the New Year dawning, one is reminded of a beginning, so why not start this report from Genesis?
When Paradise was closed down God was devastated. So distressed was the Creator that that evening, while listening to the music of the spheres, the Almighty decided to bestow a gift upon Earth. From that solemn moment on, to alleviate humanity from labour and pains and whatever difficulties the human race would , impose on itself throughout the centuries, the Giver of Life gave us that which makes everything more bearable - Music.
the generous donations offoods by the music parents'were melodious contentment to our mouths and stomachs.
... The Music Festival, at the Fremantle Town Hall once again revealed the dedication of the Committee and the Music teachers. The Hurle's brought an instant garden from their nursery and fairy lights added a magic touch. The kindness of the parents who provided the foods made the supper splendid. Mrs. Jenssen arranged donations of drink (especially for the performers) for which we are very gratefuL
"Some will master and create the art", said God, "all will have the chance to rejoice and be glad in it".
At CBC it is clear to see that spark of the divine gift. Among other equally important subjects, the sound of Music makes itself heard and listened to.
Unlike the previous years, 1996 started with no Music Committee, except our Treasurer Mr. Bovell, who had bravely been chosen and volunteered in December. But at the first meeting in February, all of a sudden, Mr. Jerry Harvey became Vice-President, Mrs. Maria Arandiga the Secretary and I the President. Several extremely reliable supporters volunteered: Mrs. Dunne, Mrs. Barlow, Mrs. Antony, Mr. & Mrs. Dutton, Mrs. Harvey, Mrs. Pounder, Mrs. Roberts, Mrs. Clapsis, Mrs. Jeffery and Mrs. Wade ... people without whose help our musical activities would not have been possible. I would also like to thank Mr. Sandri for his friendly support.
We are grateful to Ms. Emma Harrison, Mr. Uwe Stengel, Mr. Kim Anning, Mr. Valery Niyazov and Mrs. June Corcoran, our dedicated Music teachers who guide our sons in their music path and make our musical moments worthwhile.
... The Music Luncheon, which was held at Tuckfield St., was unforgettable. The not-so-wellappointed hall was transformed by the bleu-blancrouge decorations vro vided by the imagination and work of Ms. O'Neill and Ms. Kania. The music was ajoy to our hearts and
Students performing at the CBC Music Festival.
... An important event was the Workshop given by Ernie Watts, the famous saxophone player. It allowed the boys an insight into a musician's experience and methods of work.
... At very reasonable prices, three instruments have been purchased: an euphonium, a vibraphone and a baritone saxophone.
The last musical event for '96, is the Christmas Carols Night which will be held at the historical Fremantle Arts Centre. We will be gathered for singing and listening to the narration of the Nativity mystery play by the new CBC Dramatic Arts Society. On the night we shall praise and thank God immensely for the gift of Music and also for guidance and inspiration to the new Music Committee, our beloved Music teachers and our sons (our joys!).
Jesus, please lead our actions in melodious harmony.

This did not mean all was ' steady as she goes '; it was as hectic as we could wish it to be, though it left us well satisfied with ajob well done at the end of the year.
In February, Mr. Declan Masterson joined us as Year Eight English and Special Needs teacher following the departure of Mrs. Lynn Rose. Mr. Tim Parish left us to teach Japanese at Hale School and was replaced by Mrs. Akiko Danker. The temporary absences of Mrs. McCann, Mrs. Dimasi and Mr. Purcell on Long Service Leave were covered by the appointment of Mrs. Rose Hanratty to teach Italian in Terms 2 and 3, and Ms. Rosa Hajduk to teach English and Social Studies in Term 4. All of these people have, I believe, contributed very strongly to the work of the Department and I thank them for their efforts.
The demands of the syllabi in upper-school courses meant that teachers had to make special efforts to keep themselves abreast of developments in these areas. A programme of Professional Development opportunities was presented to them and many made use of this to upgrade their skills.
Yr. 8 Award Winners.
I extend my grateful thanks to everybody who has worked as a member of the Languages and Communications Department this year. Despite the large marking load that is characteristic of the subject English and the fast pace of change within the curriculum area generally, there has been a willingness to accept changes and a commitment to improving the level of literacy within the school. I am going to be absent in first term next year but I am confident that the Department's staff will continue to provide the highest standards of professionalism to the boys and to the schools in 1997.
- Mr. Bredan Mulvey During the year, there were opportunities for students to enjoy special activities and excursions. Yr. Twelve Literature students attended productions of Hamlet and Checkov's Three Sisters. The Yr. Eleven group went with Mr. Purcell to see Educating Rita. A writers' workshop with children's author Glynn Parry was offered to students as part of the Edmund Rice Beatification celebrations. Participants from CBC joined with others from Christian Brothers schools on the day at Aquinas College for this event.
Special mention must be made of the English Speaking Board Examinations which were organised and directed in Yr. 8 by Mr. Masterson and in Yr. 10 by Ms. Morison. Both exams revealed students who had confidence and flair in public speaking. They also provided all of the students involved with a chance to speak to a real and critical audience. I am grateful to all class teachers who helped to prepare students for this event and I am especially thankful to Ms. Morison and Mr. Masterson for their organisation and enthusiasm in the preparation which made these events possible.
In August, students sat for the National English Competition. This event has become a traditional one in this school and one which reveals strong talent which is latent in many students.

There has been a great deal of activity in the Italian area this year. During the Italian Festival Week, a competition was held for all schools for students to design bookmarks, bumper stickers and posters to promote the learning of the Italian language. Many of our students were highly recommended for their entries while James Foley and Simon Raspa (Yr. 9) were the 3rd Prize winners in their category of designing a bumper sticker.
In August, Year 9 and 10 students participated in the National Australia Bank Languages Certificates which tested their reading and aural comprehension. All students received a certificate. Excellent results in both reading and listening tasks were achieved by Yr. 9's F. Fusari, D. Liberatore, M . Monzu, Q. Speca, S. Santoro and Yr. 10 's R. Guerra, J. Paratore and A. Spano.
Also in August, all Yr. 10, 11 and 12 Italian students participated in the Dante Alighieri Examinations. This exam is an annual event which has been running for over 20 years. Results were pleasing and Yr. 12 student Alessandro Lucioli achieved a wonderful re-
suIt of 93% gaining overall First Place in the exam.
Once again, food was a feature of our program to incorporate the culture with the language. All classes celebrated Easter with the traditional Italian Easter Cake (Colomba) and other pastries. At the conclusion of the topic on "Food and Restaurants", the Yr. 8 students were treated to sampling some antipasto style foods while the Yr. 9 boys were taken to Caesar's Restaurant for lunch.
The Italian Connection Expo at the Fremantle Passenger Terminal was enjoyed very much by the Yr. 8 students who sampled some delightful food and saw some classy Italian goods on display. However, most agreed that the models in the fashion parade were the classiest.
]LP\..1P'AN1EยงlE From March to April of this yea!;, a group from Torei High School in Japan visited CBC. Two teachers and nineteen students had home-stay with some CBC Families. Their visit consisted of
mainly sight-seeing and interacting with our students so as to improve their English. From all reports, our Japanese visitors enjoyed experiencing the nature, the education system and life style here in Australia. A strong friendship was exchanged as a result of their visit.
The most exciting event this year is the beginning of a student exchange program to Italy for Yr. 11 Italian students.
On Friday November 29th at 8.40am, six Yr. 11 students will fly to Italy. On arrival in Rome, they will spend 4 days touring and seeing the sights of this wonderful city. On the last day in Rome

the students will have the honour of having an audience with the Pope. From Rome, the students will travel to Florence and onto Figline (approx. 30 minutes away by train). In Figline, the students will attend school, go on excursions and be billeted to families. It is hoped to establish a sister school relationship between CBC and the Instituto Tecnico Statale Commerciale e Per Geometric "G. Vasari" and possibly host students from this school here in VIA in the future.
This exchange will be the first in what we hope will become an annual event for Yr. 11 Italian students. Best wishes for your trip to Paolo Chiappini, Joseph Merlino, Ricardo Raffa, David Raffaele, Frank Raguseo and Adrian Tranchita.
Presently, we are planning to send a group of students from Yr. 10 and Yr. 12 to Japan during the April school holidays in 1997. They will visit Torei High School in Fujisawa-city, Kanagawaprefecture, which locates two hours by bus from Narita airport. They intend to experience the culture, education system and life style of Japan.

Carols in the Courtyard.
The Music Department finished the year with one final combined performance at our Carols in the Courtyard, held in the lovely surroundings of the Fremantle Arts Centre. The reading of the Nativity by the Dramatic Arts Society added a very special element to the night.
Throughout the year, all events that have been put on by the Music Department have been done so with the strong support and help of the Music Committee. The support and enthusiasm of all Committee members, especially the President Mrs. Stela Rock, has certainly added atmosphere to each event and is much appreciated.
Overall this has been a very full year. I sincerely thank and congratulate all of the music students for their dedication, enthusiasm and achievements over this year - you should be very proud of yourselves.

After the tour we had spare time to kick a footy or play soccer and we then went back to the dormitory to have showers.
The next morning we were woken up at 6.30am and for some people it was just a bit too much to handle and they had to have a second shower to wake them up. We then walked to the Abbey to have Mass at 7.30am to be followed by breakfast at 8.00am. Yr. 11 Christian Service.
Retreats playa significant role in the life of each student because it provides the time for students to reflect upon their life journey. An innovation of the Yr. 10 Retreat program was to invite students to spend their Retreat at New Norcia, a Benedictine Monastery 160kms north east of Perth.

After arriving at New Norcia's Old Convent, six boys from a group of 12 were split up and sent off to lunch. The first 6 had lunch with the Monks. I happened to be one of the first lot of six who had a "monk" lunch and it was a totally different experience. Noone was allowed to talk in the eating room except a Monk who was standing behind a lectern reading scripture during our meal.
Not long after lunch, all of us went on a tour of New Norcia taking in all of the historic sites; some artifacts dated back to 1500AD.
From 9.15 onwards we had free time and we went down to the Monastery Chapel for Midday Prayers. Prayers were said in Latin and Mr. Rose'Meyer was the only "civilian" who could speak the lingo!

Finally, I wish to thank all the Science staff for their contribution to the Department throughout the year. A sad farewell to Mr. Paul McAuley and Ms. Kerry O'Brien who will be leaving CBC at the end of 1996 and we wish them every success in their new endeavours.
Ms. O'Brien & Yr. 10 Science.
Excursions were a feature of the Science Department in 1996. They took place at all year levels. For example, Yr. 8's searched the Perth Zoo in answer to such puzzling questions as "Why does the giraffe have such high blood pressure?". This informative excursion was highly complimented by CBC and Zoo staff alike. The excursion was organised by Ms. Daly.
Science Labs at the end of Term Four '96...
In Upper School, the Senior Science students experienced a breathtaking night field trip which was organised and run by Mr. McAuley, Ms. 0' Brien and Mr. Hortense. As part of their Astronomy topic, students were taken to a property in Chittering Brook where they used telescopes to watch the night sky under the supervision and guidance of David Nicholson.
Students from Years 8 - 12 voluntarily took part in the National Science competition. This competition produced some excellent results in all year levels. Particular mention must be given to John Giovanetti in Yr. 8 who achieved a high distinction award. This result places John in the top 1% of the state, which is an outstanding result. Well done John.
As the students school year came to an end, the real work began in the Science Department. In late November, the upper science laboratories were gutted in preparation for a complete overhaul.

1996 has also involved reorganising the Department. Old stocks of books will gradually be phased out to be replaced with new and appropriate books in the next few years.
In upper school, History students have completed the new Yr. 11 History syllabus. The emphasis of history will no longer concentrate on learning facts and dates but endeavours to use an inquiry approach. This will better prepare students who plan to go to university.

It has been a busy year for Geography students. The Yr. 12 students had a busy and full year, including two excursions. The first, in Term 1, was to the J arrahdale Minesite to see how ALCOA mined bauxite. The second involved an excursion through Perth and the outlying suburbs, to understand the different land uses and functions that a city has.
The Yr. 11 Geography students concentrated on the physical environment. They also had two excursions. The first was to Point Peron and Penguin Island to study the coastal landscape. In Term 4, students enjoyed a three day camp at the Jarrahda1e Environmental Studies Centre. Here in the cold and wet of winter students studied in detail the Jarrah Forest Ecosystem.

The Innovative Skills Training and Education Program - INSTEP for short, is a structured learning program that combines school learning with experience in industry/commercial work placements. It is the first school based industry placement program which incorporates assessment by employers. INSTEP is a unique joint industry/school venture which benefits students, the industry and in general the wider community.
Essentially the INSTEP program entails students being involved in interviews, work place agreements, attending trainer workshops and then undertaking 1 to 2 days per week for 12 plus weeks at their work placement. The other 3 to 4 days, INSTEP students continue with their school subjects plus school workplace assessment tasks.
The benefits of this program are numerous with the main ones being: the program provides a strategy for a greater number of students to successfully work towards Secondary Graduation; assists in the development of responsible student work skills and career planning; increases student self-esteem, confidence and develops broader interpersonal skills; provides students with a recognised' Skills Profile" which ensures greater access to employment, further education and training and builds an understanding of employer expectations.
This year 16 CBC senior students were involved in the program. Their work placements were varied and ranged from Scavolini's Cafe to East Victoria Park Recreation Centre.
Yr. 12 Student, Jason Fuller whose work placement was at Sports Locker, Bullcreek states that he benefited from the program because he was able to get a deeper understanding of the retail and sporting goods industry. He states that his biggest achievement during the placement was showing his employer that he was a cable and reliable employee - so much so that he was offered employment.
Another Yr. 12 student, Ryan Morgan gained a placement with Timms Furniture. Towards the end of November, Ryan was offered an apprenticeship with the company.

SRC stands for the Student Representative Council. It is made up of boys nominated by their classmates and staff to be their spokesperson. We are also expected to help staff and students, and to be a good example to our peers. Every second Friday, the Council would hold a meeting to discuss complaints, inquiries and ideas brought up by students or a member of the Council. Some of the things we have accomplished this year was a free dress day to raise money for Edmund Rice Camps and a Yr. 11 student who had been injured in a car accident. Due to reduced days of the canteen, we saw that there was a need for a drink machine on campus and so the Coke machine was installed in the undercroft area. We were also involved in the Multicultural Food Day at Tuckfield St. The return of basketball cards, with the help of the teachers guiding the trading and sharing of collector cards was trialed with great success.

through their words and actions. Academically, as we have seen tonight, some students have strived to keep CBC's strong academic tradition alive.
The year was 1993 and assembled in the school hall was a unique collection of Yr. 9 students, who had collectively, survived their first year on the Senior Campus. However, the words ofBr. Wedd echoed through the many minds at that awards ceremony, echoing -the school's disappointment at the lack of maturity, lack of leadership and lack of responsibility that they had shown during the year.
Our proud sporting tradition has been kept alive by a majority of the students here tonight. Regardless of ability, several students have represented the school in Football, Athletics, Swimming, Soccer, Rugby, Hockey, Cross-country and Basketball.
It is now 1996 and three years later, many of those students are
sitting before me. In amongst them, we have the elite group of students who have been at CBC Fremantle for 8 years; those who have been here since Yr. 8; and those who have joined the school since then. It is hard to believe that the same "ruffians" three years ago are on the verge of graduating from twelve years of school; twelve years of waking up five days a week to attend a learning facility; a true display of dedication.
Our Yr. 12's have displayed more than just dedication. In several different ways they have displayed maturity, responsibility and leadership.
At this point I would like to thank Ivo Da Silva, Alex Lucioli and Jamie Paganoni, fellow SRC members, along with Fawaz Melder, who has carried out SRC duties for his Form Class. Thank you also to the Yr. 12's who have merged as unproclaimed leaders within the College.
Although the Yr. 12's have set a high standard, a personal disappointment for myselfhas be'en the lack of students attending school during intra-school swimming and athletics carnivals. I would like to challenge next years Student Council to try and reverse this trend.
Others have not competed in sports, but participated in such groups as Amnesty, ERYG, Spectrum and the Law Society. Tradition.
On behalf of the Yr. 12 student body, I would like to thank our Form Teachers Ms. Cooper, Mrs. Flexman and Mr. Searle. Also thank you to those teachers who have given us their spare time to help us with any problems that we have faced academically or otherwise.
I would like to wish you all a safe and prosperous career. Never forget your time at CBC, the good and the bad times, the joyous and frustrating times.
I will leave you with the words of Nixon Waterman.
You are my friends, for you have smiled with me, My help and hope in fair and stormy weather; Friends in the joys you have whiled with me, Friends in the griefs we've wept together. Old friends are scarce New friends are few, Here's hoping I've found one in each and everyone of you. Yr. 12 SRC: Jamie Paganoni, Alex Lyon, Ivo Da Silva & Alex Lucioli.
Tradition. Tradition at our school is reflected through the students,

Every Friday from 3.4Spm to 4.4Spm the Yr. 10 boys from Christian Brothers' College, Fremantle participated in dancing lessons with IONA. Our lessons were conducted by David Gilkison Dance Studios. From our first tentative steps until our final dance, we thoroughly enjoyed our dancing lessons.
Before our lessons we prettied ourselves up, sprayed ourselves with heaps of deodorant and boarded the buses for IONA. When we arrived, we hurried off and entered the hall. In the weeks to follow we learnt some Old Time Dancing (Bam Dance, Pride of Erin), Modem Dancing (Waltz, Quick Step, Slow Rhythm), Latin American (Jive, Cha-Cha-Cha, Samba) and also some novelty

Jon Temby and Alison Brown were selected as the most improved dancers during the lessons.

Until 1996, all our Yr. 10 boys went out on work experience. Because of the change of emphasis in the workplace in this regard, this year we limited the number of Yr. lO's to go on Work Experience, which was conducted from the 1st - Sth July. The Yr. 11 students who do work studies and the Yr. 12 students involved in the INSTEP Program, also go on work experience during the year.
Each Yr. 10 found his own work experience placement. It was interesting to discover the variety of interest amongst our boys.
A detailed preparation program was done with the boys, culminating in 'Practice Interviews' which was conducted by members of the community who are experienced in interviewing.
The boys enjoyed their week in the workforce and the written reports they received from their employers were very pleasing.

Escaping the winter chills of the mid-year holidays, a group of29 Year lO students and 5 teachers and supervisors from CBC, left on a tour of West em Australia's North West region. Seeking adventure as usual, Mr. Bob Rose'Meyer organised the trip for his year group, and managed to persuade Mr. Sandri, Ms. Harrison, Ms. Daly and Mr. Wade to join the expedition.
in a pool at the bottom of one 'of the ravines. The swim was well worth the cuts and bruises sustained on this outing!
The first few days of the trip was taken up by long hours on the coach, stopping only to stretch the legs and have something to eat and drink. No five star hotels on this trip - just the stars of the night sky, where students pitched tents and slept "bush style". The evening lantern stalks kept the students occupied, and as a credit to Mr. Rose'Meyer's organisation, everyone found their way back to the bus.
Camavon was the next place on the agenda. Here the group visited the local fruit research centre, satellite dish and the "one mile jetty". At Coral Bay, the spectacular sights of the offshore reef were enjoyed. Luckily, the bus tour just missed the floods at Camavon which left the area a metre under water.
Next stop - the magnificant gorges of the North West. After a rugged climb over some rocky outcrops, the party enjoyed a swim

This years English Speaking Board Examinations were the most successful to date. The results were outstanding and the students behaviour exemplary.
The Exam comprised of four sections. The first was a talk on a hobby or topic of interest. They varied from snakes (live in the classroom) to Judo (complete with uniform and demonstration). The second section involved reciting a poem. They ranged from Shakespeare to Lawson. The third section was an oral reading of from a novel. Tim Winton and Steven King were popular. The fourth and final element of the Exam was a discussion with the Examiner and audience about the presentation . .
The fmal results were 4 Satisfactory, 28 Highly Satisfactory, 45 Credit and II Distinctions. The following students gained the Distinctions.

On Tuesday the 21 st of March, a group of anxious students were sat waiting on the oval after last minute arrangements had to be made because the school bus had broken down. To pass the time, we all ate our packed lunches at around 9.30am and played some sport on the oval.
A few hours later we arrived at FairbridgeVillage. On first impressions, it looked very, very old and we felt like we'djust gone back in time to 1905 or something along those lines. We were put into three separate houses while the teachers got a really good two storey house. In most houses the water system ran on a very basic principle rule of science and to use this principle, we were given an axe, a few logs and some matches. One of the houses had gas heating but with the log fire heating, you had about two minutes to get in and out before the water turned solid on you. The food was very nice and served in a sort of buffet style mess hall (and mess hall it soon became!).
it or not, Mr. Saridri and Mr. McAuley were almost as gun-ho as us!); horse riding (on some aggressive horses i.e. mine!); water skiing; biscuiting (where you sit in a tube with a material bottom and you get towed behind the boat at a speed of 30 - 40mph). A few kids fell out and Mr. McAuley was untied in the middle of the dam by some revenge-craving students. Other activties included: a bush walk, canoeing and raft building and a cowpat frisbee game (NOTE: Bit messy. Don't try this game at home.). There were a few different night activities including: a games night, a quiz night and a couple of video nights. After four days we went home and what better way to end the week than to finish school at 12.15pm.
Overall the camp was lots of fun and I give it a 811 0 as being a good camp.

For 9A and half of 9B, the camp at Logue Brook (just out of Harvey) was a complete success. The camp was held from 19th 22nd of March, and Mr. Murphy, Mrs. Cooney, Mr. Purcell and Ms. Morison together with Madeline Morison attended.
The activities included Abseiling, horse-riding, a low-ropes (obstacle) course, archery, canoeing and water-skiing. Abseiling down the 13m tower was fairly easy, but free-falling through the centre of the tower required courage, a few prayers, a lot of trust and a still tongue (the supervisors said we'd get into trouble if we swore). As well as canoeing, water-skiing and sea-biscuiting at Logue Brook Dam, we had fights in knee-deep sludge, and quite a few students went back to camp covered in dried-up mud. Horse-riding was also fun, except when the horses got grumpy and nearly threw us off. The low-ropes and the archery tested our skills and the most anticipated activity was Mr. Murphy's 6am jogs. NOT!
We also visited the Harvey Agriculture School, and saw the chicken sheds, piggery, slaughterhouse, calf shed, shearing shed and the milk shed, but the best place there, was the vineyard. The
red globe grapes were of export quality, and were absolutely delicious.
We watched several videos during the camp - "Ace Ventura", "Cool Runnings" and "Drop Dead Fred" were laughs a minute. Games Night was excellent, except for a few races that made us look very silly (i.e. rolling potatoes across the floor with our noses???) and the skits - which made us look pathetic - were clever and hilarious.
Special thanks to all the teachers and supervisors, especially the owners of the excellent campsite for all their time and hard work. Overall everyone had a really good time and enjoyed it thoroughly. It was great!

During Science, the Yr. 7's were learning about parts of plants and their scientific names. Then Ms. Womer had the idea of visiting the Rolling Stones Nursery which is owned by Blair Hurle's parents.
As we were leaving, Mr. Hurle gave us each a plastic bag that contained a variety of seeds, bulbs and fertiliser.
At the nursery, Mr. Hurle taught us how to pot seedling s. He then gave us agapanthus to plant and take home to grow. After that Mr. Hurle gave us a tour of the Nursery. We saw a large variety of plants.
I'm sure that the class enjoyed the day. On behalf of the class, I would like to thank Ms. Womer for organising such a wonderful day, Mr. and Mrs. Hurle for the tour and for all that they taught us, Mr. Caputi for driving the bus and Ms. Jayamaha for coming along and helping as well as taking photos.

Ms. Womer was to be our Yr. 6 and 7 teacher. Boy is she a glutton for punishment! Here we again met a strong, disciplined teacher, one who is always organised, with plenty of work for us . She is always willing to listen, advise and help us. I know we all have gained alot, and are now ready to face Yr. 8. My first impressions have not changed. I have loved the time that I have spent in the band feeling very honoured to have had the talents and patience of Mr. Stengel always as my encouragement. This feeling is one I know that is shared by all that have any association with music at CBC.
Our three years at CBC have flown but I know the memories, loyalties and friendships that we have made will stay with us for ever. CBC has a special power or bond that it weaves over its students. This I feel certain is shared by all the boys as well as several of their fathers and grandfathers here tonight that also went to CBC Fremantle.
Finally I would like to say thank you to all that have shared and helped make our time at Tuckfield St. so wonderful. I know that we all look forward to a future that is richer due to our time together at CBC.

When the class found out that we were going on a camp to Northam, the room was filled with excitement because for many of us, this was our first camp ever. Ms. Womer had given us a timetable explaining what we would be doing. Wednesday 11 th September arrived and immediately I saw that everyone was as excited as I was.
We loaded our gear onto the bus and were on our way by about 8.30am. We headed straight for Mundaring Weir and were lucky enough to be filmed by Channel Seven. At the Weir we saw the c.y. O'Connor Museum and had a tour of the Weir. After lunch we went on a bush walk. That night we had Mass and a Quiz Night. Lights were out by 1O.OOpm.
We were woken by teachers at 7.30am and after breakfast we headed for Connor's Mill in Toodyay and learnt how the Mill worked. We then were bussed to Old Toodyay Goal, one of three still remaining. After lunch we ventured t? Archery and Camel riding, a first for most. That night we watched a movie and went to bed. On the third day we packed up our luggage and headed home at 1O.30am.
The camp was a great success and we would like to thank Ms. Womer for organising everything and to Mr. Caputi for driving the bus and to all the parents who helped at the camp.

This year went well for the CBC St. Vincent de Paul Society, although the number of students involved was disappointing. However, the Society, led by Mr. Gerard Theseira, was able to function due to the involvement of the following Yr. 9A boys: Justin Chauveau, Aston Ladzinski, Clifton Pratt, Jeremy Yates and myself.
We held meetings generally every fortnight on a Friday. The So-
countries know that there are people throughout the world who are aware of their human rights violations against their people. In Sri Lanka, these violations include the disappearance, torture, arbitrary arrest and senseless wounding of innocent people.
As Amnesty International is not politically motivated, we do not normally send letters to the government in our own country. Rather, people from other countries write to Australia. In September, the President, Fawaz Melder along with the Head Boy, Alex Lyon and the Deputy Head Boy, Ivo Da Silva had the opportunity to attend a Youth Conference run by the A.LE.S.E.e. university group. The purpose of this conference was to see how we as indiâ&#x20AC;˘ viduals can make. a difference as we approach the 21st century. Issues such as Multiculturalism and Racial Intolerance were discussed. The conference allowed us to see how important groups such as Amnesty International are, in that they fight for Human Rights and really make a difference.
Our Yearly Cake stall was once again a success with over $100 raised. We also attended an excursion with the E.R.Y.G. and St. Vincent de Paul groups in September for lunch and a movie. This excursion provided us with an opportunity to reflect on our goals
ciety organised a few events during the year. One was a Cake Stall in First Term, in which we raised $114. We also managed to organise a clothing bin and held an evening for "Kids at Risk" children in the Fremantle area whose parent(s) didn't come home till late in the evening.
On behalf of the Society, I would like to thank Mr. Theseira for giving us a hand (and as he said, only slight) and to everybody who contributed to the course.

The main aim of Amnesty International is to pressure certain foreign governments to analyse their human rights record. Under the guidance of Mr. Purcell, our small yet dedicated group of students from Years 10 to 12 has focused attention on a number of countries, including Sri Lanka, China, Colombia and Turkey. The purpose of writing these letters is to let the governments of these
As Chairman, I would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank Mr. Purcell, Mrs. Barton, Mrs. Gavin, Ms. Jayamaha, our Vice-President Asanka Gunasekera and all the members of Amnesty '96 for all their efforts.

Most of the ex-students arrived on time and were informally greeted by Br. Wedd, Mrs. Cooney and Br. Hackett. It was good to catch up with the teachers that we had not seen since school
At MEGA we got to explore some things that we never thought existed in Mathematics. We had the opportunity to use a graphics calculator for the duration of the camp. We were also able to explore the Internet, use computers to construct fractals and create 3D shapes on computers. One of the speakers showed us how to multiply two three digit numbers in our heads. On the camp we mainly used technology and applied it to mathematics. I would like to thank Mr. Tognolini for giving us the opportunity to go on the camp.

Interesting also were the changes that had occured in such a short time; some teachers had left CBC ' and new teachers had arrived, but all in all not a lot had changed with the school itself. The changes with the ex students were more intense; some were working, others going to Uni, Tech or job hunting, all of us had something to tell.
Following this came the breakfast itself. To say it was delicious would be an understatement, and it certainly was enjoyed by all
The workshop involveJ students from the three Christian Brothers' schools - CBC, Aquinas and Trinity - and was led by the author, Glynn Parry. In what turned out to be an interesting seminar, Glynn Parry explained to us his methods of generating ideas and putting a novel together.
The workshop was a valuable experience because we learnt some of the techniques employed by an experienced writer and this will help enhance our own writing abilities.

In particular, the Yr. 12's on the team: Alex, Grant, Richard, Fawaz, Ivo and Production Manager, Jason Monzu, responded generously to the demands on their time despite heavy TEE commitments. (It takes Jason nine hours per issue to put it all together.)

while the younger people were tight with their money and quite rude. One young 'lady' told me to get stuffed. I ignored this and said "Thank you anyway, have a good day." I wonder ifshe did! (Kris Nolan)
I did not really feel comfortable about asking people to donate money, but it was a good cause so I didn't mind. (Steven Erceg)
I felt strange collecting for people I did not know, but it was worthwhile. It was extremely interesting to see that people dressed ordinarily gave so generously. The elderly proved to be the most generous and overall women gave more than men. (Tyson Beattie)
I noticed that the rich gave little or nothing, the poor were generous. I enjoyed what I did and learnt a lot. From now on when someone asks for a donation, I will give because I've experienced the situation. (Jon Temby)
I found that the elderly and the tourists were the most generous
What do you know! I got a donation from the Hon. Dr. Carmen Lawrence. (Glen Harris)
Although at first I was a little apprehensive to go can shaking, the thought of helping intellectually and physically disabled people made me feel a little better and more positive. (Neal Hobson)
The people who were dressed more upper-class, indicating they were better off, gave nothing or on most occasions simply ignored us or smirked at us. The less well-to-do gave quite generously. (Luke Vernon)

A full house was the result of a few months of hard work rehearsing, organising, advertising and believing in the stage production of Don Quixote Revisited.
The cast consisted of four lona Presentation College students: Kate McRae, Emma Fullerton, Analisa Bell and Georgia Adams; five CBC Yr. 9 students: Malcolm Rock, Christian Thompson, Justin Chauveau, Rick Nodari, Robert Antony and one Yr. 7 student, Duncan Rock. The technical support was provided by Clifton Pratt, Ben Khoo and Derek Novak (all in Yr. 9 students)
For some years, CBC had not had a play performed on its stage (or anywhere else). But finally... what a praiseworthy performance! Incorporating damsels, death, puppetry, sword fights, musical effects and even some fireworks, the play did not let the audience go home disappointed.
With unlimited support from some parents, teachers and friends, Malcolm Rock's script was brought to life in an unforgettable way.
The success ofthe performances has brought about action to form the much needed CBC DRAMATIC ARTS SOCIETY which in time will be a full part of school life with many more students from all years participating.
Stay tuned for next year's performance ...

The 1996 Inter School Chess Competition has not been an interesting one as we have only won a few individual games.
Over the last two terms, the Yr. 8 Chess Team has played games every Tuesday afternoon after school. Four players representing CBC went to every game and played for about 30 minutes to an hour. The schools we played against included Mazenod, Scotch, Ursula Frayne and Servite College.
There were many good players including Russell Bell, Paul Smith and Lucas Oldfield - just to name a few.

On a hot summers day the College once again made the journey to Fremantle Aquatic Center for our Intra Swimming Carnival. This years event was different from previous years in that the whole school (Years 6 - 12) competed in one Carnival. This added a great atmosphere to the event and made for a busy program with two pools running simultaneously.
The House System was resurrected from previous years which gave a competitive edge to the events.

On Wednesday March 13th a squad of 46 CBC students combined with Santa Maria for an assault on the ever elusive A Division crown.
The depth of commitment was very strong and training attendance was very high - even at 7.00am. The Fremantle Aquatic Center was packed with a sea of green caps pushing out the laps.
The highlight ofthe day was the record set by John Neesham in the SOm freestyle. The other great individual effort was by Glen Nicholson who won two events and placed in two events.
Unfortunately competing against the larger schools remained our nemesis and when combined with Santa Maria we finished 7th overall. Next year we will be competing in B division which will allow us to compete with schools of similar sIze. - Mr. Barron

The cricket season was hopefully a fun time. There are some talented players at CBC, Fremantle. Paul Carruthers and Tyson Beattie provided the "openers" who could stay at the crease all day but often sacrificed their wicket in the chase for runs.
Scott Tate, Matthew Symons, Dale Yeoman, Joel Lawrance, Nathan Jerovich and myself provided the bowlers during the season.
Game Two against Lumen Christi was a shortened game, but excellent running between wickets saw a comfortable win CBC 2/ 74; Lumen Christi 3/33.
Game Three against Mazenod was the Grand Final. We bowled well against an excellent team. Unfortunately, our fielding was sub-standard and eventually was to cost us dearly. Chasing 64 rutlS, we started well but began to panic and fell 3 runs short in an exciting finish.
Congratulations to all players - you played with great spirit and really enjoyed yourselves. As the season progressed, we also improved as a team in our fielding, batting and especially our catching. An indication in our improvement was our final game where we won by 60 runs. I would like to thank Mr. Theseira and Mrs. Whitney for coaching us during the season. - Craig Gianoli (lOA)

The 1996 Senior School Hockey has been very successful. The side played in two different competitions. The first being the Senior Schools B grade competition and the second being the Aranmore Cup.
The Senior Schools competition was the harder of the two but this didn't stop us from winning. We played five regular season games and an additional two finals competition. We won all of our games including the finals. Our main goal scorers in this competition were Blake Burrows and Chris Sheridan. Our hardest opponent was Como, who is supposed to be the number one school for hockey. Against them in our normal season game we won by 1 goal in a 2 - 1 victory. The win can be accounted to great saves by goalkeeper, Ben Sheridan, who also saved a penalty flick.
Our grand final win of 4 - 2 against Como was our best victory. The whole team played well in this and it was a great team effort. The sole goal scorer was Chris Sheridan. Some of the stand outs in this game were Blake Burrows, Adam Grinsell and Grant Watton.
We also won the Aranmore Cup. This competition was easy for the first game but the second game was a very close 1 - 0 victory.

The hockey season had a very enthusiastic start, with seventeen students attending the first meeting early in Term 2. Throughout the season, a core of thirteen players worked very well to produce a cohesive team. The more experienced players helped the first-time players to develop good skills and game strategies.
The ACC Hockey season ran for seven weeks in Term Two. During this time, we played schools such as Lumen Christi, Helena and Mazenod. Our home games were played at Steven's Reserve, to which Mr. Barron kindly drove the team and umpired the game.
The team successfully competed through the season undefeated. In a season of seven games, the team scored a total of 48 goals and only conceded 4 goals against. This was quite impressive considering a number of games were played with our goalie, Ben Sheridan, deciding not to pad-up but to have a run on the field instead.
After winning the southern zone we progressed into a final against St. Mark's, who were the winning team of the Northern zone. This game had the added pressure of an audience of the Australian Men's Hockey Team, who watched the final 15 minutes of the game as they waited to use the stadium for their training session. The CBC players stood up to the pressure and won the final 5 to 1.
Thanks must go to Mr. Preshaw for driving the bus to Helena (even though we had a flat battery for the return trip) and to Mr. Sandri for driving and coaching for two away games.

After dominating the Ross Glendenning Division in 1995, CBC Fremantle were promoted to play in the Graham Farmer Division ofthe Quit Cup Football Competition for the 1996 season. This meant facing larger schools such as Hamilton Hill SHS and Rockingham SHS.
Although CBC failed to reach any finals, the team certainly proved themselves more than capable of the higher level of competition. The highlights included defeating Melville SHS on their own ground and providing regional finalists, Rockingham SHS, with their hardest game of the season.
This year also witnessed the establishment of a new competition, "The Port Cup", an exclusive competition between John Curtin SHS and CBC Fremantle. The inaugural game was played vigorously by both teams with CBC being set the challenge to take out the Cup next year. Congratulations to Glenn Nicholson who as best player for CBC in the Port Cup, received the Brad Rowe Medal.

1996 was a very successful year for the 9/ 10 ACC Football team. They were undefeated at the end of the home and away games' after defeating teams from Mazenod, Lumen Christi, All Saints and Seton College. The only game that proved to be close was the game against Mazenod College, which saw CBC win by only 2 points.
Our undefeated season saw us top ofthe ACC Southern Division and we now had to play Sacred Heart College in the North Vs South Grand Final. After a hard fought game, CBC succumbed to the pressure applied by Sacred Heart and went down by 4 goals.

Our thanks go to Mr. and Mrs. Emslie and Mrs. Hall for support and assistance during the inaugural tour. On the Melbourne playing field, we performed weIl with Chris Graham taking out the best forward trophy. In the backs, Eamon Arandiga led from the front with some fearless IUns and tackles. Our inaugural trip to Melbourne proved to be a very worthwhile and enjoyable experience for all concerned. For the '97 CBC Rugby Tour, I hope to organise a trip to Queensland where the students will have the opportunity to play against interstate schools, experience family lifestyle in Queensland as well as take in the many tourist destinations. The Yr. 9110 XV, coached by Mr. Gordon Hill, performed well and played with a lot of courage and passion. Thomas Triolli led from the front with some very strong work in the tight and rucks. Rory Elliot could always be relied upon to tackle anybody, anywhere and anytime. New recruit, Kin Onn Lam (prop) showed he could hold his own playing against more experienced players.
The Yr. 8 Rugby Team was full of enthusiasm and with the help of some experienced Yr. 9's, won a couple of games. It was unfortunate that on occasions, we couldn't field a full team. When we did, we were very competitive. Russell Bell showed his courage during the games and hopefully many of his team mates will stay with Rugby next year and build on what they know.

The Senior Soccer team started the season brightly with emphatic wins over Swanboume SHS and South Fremantle SHS. The team was ably led by Captain Cris Moreno and its defense was strengthened by the experienced Gary Faria.
Last year's champions - John Curtin A, proved to be the toughest opponent in our group. Despite losing 1 - 0 to our traditional rivals, I think that our team lifted its standard and had some excellent passages of play.
With easy wins against Lakelands SHS and Melville SHS, CBC eventually qualified for the second round of the competition - the knock-out phase. Our team was plagued with injured players when we went to Leederville to play Aranmore College. With a restructured team, CBC started poorly, however the team didn't panic and won the game comfortably.
This win set up a quarter-final match against Willeton SHS. Despite losing the very reliable Paolo Chjappini through injury, our players were confident and started the game brightly by creating a number of chances. However, due to wasted opportunities and Willeton consolidating its defense, the final whistle saw CBC bowing out of the competition which they and John Curtin had dominated over the last two years.
Needless to say our players were very disappointed. However, I am confident that our talented Yr. 9 and 10 players will be able to blend with our established players to form an exciting and·cohesive team next season.
Finally I wish to thank all the students who have participated in the competition this year, in particular the Yr. 12's. Thanks too to all the students and staff who came to support the team - your presence and cheers were greatly appreciated.

At the end of September, two staff members, Mr. Bob Rose'Meyer and Mr. Sandro Sandri, left Perth to represent CBC, Fremantle on the Edmund Rice Pilgrimage. The itinerary for the Pilgrimage consisted of travelling to Europe to visit Edmund Rice's birthplace and then onto Rome to be present at the Beatification ceremony celebrated by Pope John Paul.
]P)][ lLG ]RU[ ML1\G E
St. Patrick's Church, where Edmund worshipped, still operates as a small but functional Church signifying the struggle the Catholics of his time endured in order to attend Mass and receive the Sacraments.
Mr. Sandri has the following memories of the pilgrimage: "Our journey commenced with an air of excitement, 28 strong we gathered at Perth Airport. I wondered if 101 years ago whether the first Christian Brothers who arrived in Perth had the same sense of discovery and excitement.
In Dublin, we went to the O'Connell School which was the first residence of the Brothers, the place where Edmund received visitors and discussed his ideas with eminent figures of the time. The small austere room where Edmund slept, prayed and gave devotion to Our Lady was testimony to the sincerity of his dream to use his wealth for others. The presence of Edmund is evident in very comer of the house giving one a feeling of reverence and peace.
Edmund's Family home, "Westcourt", in Callan, a quiet rural area was the next stop. Here in the Chapel one can see the magnificent original Edmund Rice Icon. The guide for our tour turned out to be a Brother from India who recognised Bob Rose'Meyer as a former student of his. We then went on to Waterford, a place of great beauty now, but once the site of such turmoil and poverty that inspired Edmund in the 18th Century. Mt. Sion, the original Brothers' residence remains as it was in his time.
The first school Edmund taught at.
On to Rome and what a contrast to the peace and gentle beauty of Ireland. However this city of exquisite Churches and breathtaking art and history soon had us emaptured.
On the Saturday before the Beatification we attended a Rosary led by His Holiness. The reciting of the Rosary was a very special moment as it was in keeping with Edmund's devotion to Mother Mary.
On October 8th was the Beatification ceremony and Bob and I were amidst the thousands of people gathered for the ceremony. The arrival of the Pope - "Papa" as the Italians call him, sent a frenzy of cheers through the crowd. The scene was a panorama of red, white and green scarves symbolising Edmund Rice, being waved widely. .
The culmination of the three hour ceremony was when the Pope declared Edmund Rice Blessed and at that moment a huge picture of Edmund was unveiled, draped over the balcony of St. Peters. It was the moment for the purpose of our visit. The huge crowd reverently prayed and celebrated in unison. All too soon it was over and we were left to reflect on a very moving experience " .

To acknowledge the wonderful times that were had by many at Tuckfield St. and to formally farewell the end of an era as well as celebrate new beginnings, a special Mass and function was held for all the past and present CBC Community.
The following is the speech given by Nelson Serrao, the final Head Boy of Tuckfield St.
"Good afternoon distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen. My name is NelMr. McKirdy, ex-Deputy Pricipal. son Serrao and I am honoured to be the [mal Head Boy of Tuckfield St. Campus.
I have been at Tuckfield St. for 3 3/4 years. I would like to tell you a little about how it has been through these years.
In Yr. 5, orientation day was similar to a nightmare. CBC was a different school to most soon-to-be- students because the rules were strict. Homework was new to most students as they had done little or nothing at their previous schools. We were the youngest and shortest of the school and the only thing we did during recess and lunch was play hand tennis.

sure we had lots of confidence in Qurselves.
Yr. 6 came faster than ever and we weren't the smallest in the school any more. Newer students joined the clan and settled down fairly quickly. We used desks instead of trays and the chairs were bigger than most of us. Yr. 8's were pushy but we now retaliated.
Yr. 6 went and Yr. 7 came. We now had several teachers who prepared the class well for Yr. 8. Most of us found that the rules were less strict but it was only because we had become so accustomed to them that we were pulling up our socks without knowing we were doing it.
In Yr. 8 most of the Yr. 7 graduation class was split up into three Y r. 8 classes. We met new students on orientation day and understood how they felt as we had passed through the same situation in Yr. 5. In Yr. 8 we learnt that to learn the hard things you must understand the basics first.
Now that exams are starting you notice the difference between primary school and high school. I hope every student gets the mark they want and deserve.
These are the years I will remember most. There has been good times and bad times and the teachers helped us get through the bad times.
I would like to thank all the teachers for putting up with us and helping us through the years.
Br. Wedd accepts the commemorative plaque.
The best thing in Yr. 5 was the teacher, followed closely by the Yr. 5 camp. Mr. Santa Maria was very outstanding and he made
On behalf of all the students of CBC Junior Campus, we would like to present this Honour Board in memory of the students at Tuckfield St."
