"To determine the status of a society, one has to look at the security it provides for its children, their possibilities to develop physically as well as mentally, and to be free to explore the environment and the society without fear:' "Our schools, through their climate, teacher pupil relations and curriculum, aim to meet the spiritual, intellectual, phychological and social needs of each pupil,

developing more fully the ability of each one to think objectively and responsibly, to value the search for truth, and to appreciate the dignity and value of the human person:'

These two comments have much in common. The first is from Jette Meng, a representative of UNICEF, who is contributing greatly to this International Year of the Child. The second is taken from "Loreto Educational Philosophy:' The combination.of the two, sets the theme for this year's magazine: Our school striving

towards the ideals of all Loreto schools, in a world particularly conscious that, "Mankind owes the child the best it has to give'.' (Declaration of the Rights of the Child.)

SE TnNG THE THEME A school as large as this speaks with many voices; voices from its past fifty-five years and the thousands of students who have formed part of the Loreto, Mandeville school community, the voices of the present eight hundred and thirty

students, the voices of staff, past and present and the voices of the many who'are linked to the school - parents, advisers and friends.

What is said and the context in which it is said will vary enormously from person to person and group to group but my hope is that the essential spirit of this school

will be at the basis of whatever is communicated about the school, whether in words

or in actions. And what is this essential spirit? I would like to suggest that it can be summed up in a few key principles.

As a Catholic school, it draws on a long tradition of Christian education which has always affirmed the value and importance of the individual. Created in the image of God, each person has a unique and undisputable claim on the respect of others. In the school setting, this respect relates to such things as the development of talents, the encouragement of independent thinking and a compassion for the

disadvantaged. Such attitudes lie at the root of any living community which allows

individuals the freedom to grow but also provides them with the support, if risks and mistakes are to be made.

School Principal: Sister Deirdre Rofe, I.B.V.M.

The essential spirit also demands a fidelity and loyalty; not in "the old school tie"

sense but in that mature response which is based on gratitude for what has been

given and a commitment to living out the ideals which have been conveyed.

And finally the essential spirit has something to do with hope in the future; that, from the tangle and uncertainty of the present will come a capacity to cope and an enthusiasm in tackling what lies ahead.

A Principal has only one voice and these words are written in the trust that they will find an echo in the experience of others who have known and loved this school.

Sr. Deirdre, I.B.V.M. Principal

On behalf of the staff, students and myself as Deputy Principal, I do extend to Sister Deirdre Rofe a very warm welcome and congratulations on her appointment as Principal of Loreto Mandeville from January 1979. I can assure her she will have

the co-operation and loyalty from each one, to help and assist her, to carry out her duties as Principal of Mandeville.

Sr. Deirdre had worked as a member of staff during 1978, and it became evident

quite early in that year, the school had acquired a quiet, efficient dedicated Christian personality. Perhaps it was not surprising to many of us that other people were aware of these and many other qualities possessed by her, and as Sr. Jane Kelly was

nearing the fulfillment of her term at the school, Sr. Deirdre Rofe would be the new Principal for 1979.

During 1979 certain changes have occurred within the school organisation and curriculum. V.I.S.E. has been one of the most discussed topics, an alternative H.S.C. course has been devised and will be placed on the 1980 curriculum. The Creative Studies Programme has been expanded to include ethnic culture, public speaking and multi-cultural works. We have seen a greatly increased need for guidance services, the appointment of a part-time counsellor, extended library hours particularly available to H.S.C. students, changes in subject content, teaching methods and organisational patterns are being undertaken, the re-organisation of business administration - a Business Manager has been appointed.

Religious Education is the uppermost concern of the administration and staff in a Catholic school such as Mandeville. The religious education team is certainly untiring in its efforts and concern in arranging Retreat days, Christian living weekends, Reconciliation services and student Masses. These are all regular events in our year.

Naturally certain principles are set out which students and staff are expected to

respect. No organisation can function to advantage without certain guidelines being known.

Mandeville is a school, staff, students and parents should be proud and honoured to attend and become involved with all aspects. The priveleges are many, the potential of students most encouraging, a Christian school with great values and ideals which we hope to preserve.

Fl Question: On Television there is a song that says you have to "Care for Kids:' How do you "Care for Kids?

Answer:

Mummies and Daddies, teachers, policemen, dentists, doctors and all the big people should look after children. They should like them and help them to be happy people. They should not growl at little children. They should not hit them. They should buy them lollies and toys

and clothes. They should tell children to go to bed so they can be awake in the morning.

Children can feed themselves meat, chocolate pudding, cakes and cornflakes but they should not have bad food like pickles, vegemite, sauce and pumpkin.

So big people should look after kids by

looking after them and giving them a hug just when they need it.

THE GRADE FOUR WORKSHOP

The Grade Four workshop was on Monday night, the 2nd of July. The Grade Fours were all excited as they got into their costumes, but they were rather nervous too. In

949

the workshop we had items like ballet, physical education,

plays, poems and singing. It was a great success and everyone in the audience enjoyed it. The parts I liked the best were "Toad's Garden" and "The Magic Shoes:' Some of the items were funny, others rather serious.

"Toad's Garden" was about a frog who had a lovely garden. Frog's best friend, Toad, wanted a garden too and tried hard, but thought that he couldn't grow one. But one day Frog came knocking at Toad's door shouting for him to come out. Toad came out and looked at his garden. He saw tiny green buds coming out of the ground. He jumped for joy! His garden was growing at last.

SPEECH AND DRAMA

My speech and drama teacher's name is Miss Sadler. At speech and drama we do speech exercises to open our

mouths well. We drop our lower jaws and move our tongues around. We also do plays, poems and theme work.

The theme I am working on with five other girls is "Spiders", We have to write and act a play, read part of a book on spiders, make up a story involving spiders, read a poem and give some information about them. In third

term we have our first speech exam when an examiner

ART

At 1.20 every Monday we have art with Miss Dillon. At the beginning of the year we learned about primary and neutral colours and how to mix them. Then we did some

embroidery stitches on a piece of material and stitched a picture. After we had finished that we made a frog from material and stuffed it. When we had finished all that we were able to knit whatever we wanted to.

Tiffany MeGowan, Grade 5 SPORT

Everyone goes to sport - Prep., Grade 1, Grade 2, Grade 3, Grade 4, Grade 5, Grade 6, but at different times.

When Grade 5 go to sport on Mondays at lunch time or every second Wednesday we begin by using the mats. We do somersaults, forward and backward rolls and then we play basketball. After that we usually split up. Half of us

t

dance and the other half do more mat work and beam

work and then we change over.

SPEECH EXAM

Our speech exams will be held in third term at the end of

October. Each of us must recite a poem that takes no more than one minute. Then we read aloud, concentrating on looking up at the examiner as often as possible, speaking slowly and clearly, but most particularly using as much expression as possible so as not to bore the examiner.

Having a conversation with the examiner may sound easy but believe me, it is quite difficult when we are now allowed to use those precious "ums" and "ers:' We do the

exam in groups of five or six because working in a group helps us to feel relaxed and less nervous.

TWICE UPON A TIME

On Friday, 1st June all the children from the Junior School went up to the Hall to see an opera, "Twice Upon a

Time" which was presented by the Victorian State Opera.

There were four performers and one pianist. They acted two Russian Folk Tales. The first was "The Crock of Gold" which was about an old man whose wife had died.

While he was digging her grave he found a crock of gold and this enabled him to give her a proper funeral. The

When I think of my street the first thing that comes to mind is the trees because they are so tall and shady. In autumn the leaves fall to the ground and the trees look bare. In the summer you can hear the people playing and swimming in their pools. The smell I don't like in my street is when the next door neighbour lights his incinerator. It

TRIP TO PETERSVILLE

In first term Grade Six were told that on Tuesday, 27th March, they would be going to Petersville. Everyone was very excited and looked forward to it very much.

We arrived at Petersville at 11.30 a.m. and the gates were open ready for us to go through. Soon we were seated to see a film, which showed Products and Properties all over Australia. It was interesting to see how they picked the corn, how they made different products from milk, and their specialised machinery. Finally, they showed the canned products with a lady walking around a supermarket with a trolley buying the 'Peters' products.

The tour through the factory was amazing! Machines coated the ice-creams, poured ice-creams into moulds, put

and even made ice-cream easter eggs. The machinery can make up to 12,000 ice-creams per hour, so there were ice-

When one reflects on the various branches of every Loreto school - its pupils, parents, community, staff,

mothers' association, clergy and past pupils, all imbued with the same spirit and aims, but not necessarily achieving these in the same ways, one comes to appreciate in no small way the responsibility that Sister Beatrice has carried, and handled with such success. A measure of that success, is the harmony which she has maintained between the various parts of the Loreto Family. She has achieved this through the force of her own personality. She has succeeded in infecting others with her sense of duty, her common-sense, her friendly dignity, her instinct for what is right, her consistency in being firm, but not obdurate, strict but tolerant, and above all, a very human and loving person. For myself, I think the feature of her personality

In her six years at Toorak, Sister Beatrice has been Superior of a community numbering between 25 and 30.

Her sincerity, directness and extraordinary unselfishness

have been at the base of a very unified community. We have particularly valued her patience and interest in each person.

Sister Beatrice is a courageous person who has faced change with optimism and a clear understanding of key

principles. In her humour and cheerfulness, she reflects one of Mary Ward's sayings:

"In our calling a cheerful mind, a good understanding

and a great desire after virtue are necessary, but of all

which I find most endearing is her undeniable sense of

This year was a particularly busy and happy time for the Past Pupils' Association, due of course, to the great honour of holding the 13th Biennial Federation

Much fun and hard work was had raising money to

finance the Conference. In fact, all proceeds from all'our functions were used for this.

Our Luncheon was held at my home in October. It was 1*

very well attended and financially as well as socially e successful.

The afternoon of recollection was a wonderful occasion

- due to Father George Belfrage, S.J. - whose enlightening dissertation on "Taking each day as it comes" gave us all something to think about, discuss and accept. He also said a beautiful and meaningful Mass for our deceased past pupils. Our reunion this year was held on the first night of the Federation Conference, and it was

INSIDE - OUTSIDE FORM V AND VI SOCIAL The Form Five and Six Social was held at Dennis House

this year on May 10th. It was a night of much gaiety and outwardness on the part of those who attended. It portrayed the characters and styles of the students outside

the school environment. The evening abounded in plumages and fake diamonds, which added colour and amusement to the staff and the less adventurous students.

The black spots on aqua were one of the more favourable innovations to the social scene. The girls' toilets were

suitably crowded with emotions and shrieks of delight on account of the male representatives who had so obligingly attended.

The music, although devastatingly loud, was much enjoyed by students, but inhibited conversation to a large degree (which was an advantage for those who had little to say to their partners).

The evening was, on the whole, a success, the excitement being promoted by a before-party and suitably lulled by a relaxing after-party. We all hope that the Form Fives will have an equally enj oyable time next year and we only wish that we could re-live the enjoyment with them.

SKI TRIP TO FALLS CREEK

Catriona Brennan, Form VI

This year, for the first time, a ski trip was organised involving fourteen Form IV students. The mid-term break enabled us to spend two full days and two half days up at Falls Creek. Some of the girls were experienced skiers and others had not ever seen snow, so the group was split to allow for better tuition.

Mrs Varani, Mrs. Szotyory and the Physical Education staff were in charge of the girls and made certain that everyone was supervised at all times.

A great number of pancakes were consumed, but we feel certain that their consumption was more than balanced by the output of energy taken in falls on the slopes !

We are sure that this trip was an enjoyable experience and hope that it is one which the school may wish to repeat.

It has been the custom over the past nine years for the "National Times" to sponsor the School Students' National Debating Championships. This year, I was selected as one of the members of the Victorian Team. (To support my earlier statement of fact, the other three students were male.) After six weeks of intensive training - discussing, debating, and shouting·each other down -

"WIT, LOGIC AND THE AUSTRALIAN WAY" Debating, as a form of communication which forces

students to formulate and fluently present a coherent argument, has been a popular exercise adopted by many schools. In the junior forms, dry mouthed girls nervously shuffle palm cards and whisper half prepared speeches, to the front desks. It is sad that the trauma is too much for

Australia's western wilderness, Perth, a fair city in full flower for those intrepid tourists who dare traverse the

ranks of obscurity.

However, for a few, the lures of debating far outweigh the temporary disadvantages of blind terror and embarrassed incoherence. These are the girls who have discovered that debating is an excellent way to meet students from other schools. It is a fact that girls are outnumbered four to one by boys in local competitions; despite what one might say about sex inequality, that circumstance is the female debater's delight, and the

The Championships were conducted over five days, and despite a shock defeat in our first debate, the Victorian team nevertheless reached the semi-finals. The two semi-

THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING EARNEST

Early in the 1880's Oscar Wilde decided to write a play full of satirical wit, mainly concerned with social manners

and attitudes of that time. This play was "The Importance of Being Earnest" and during most of the first term Form V Mandeville and Form V and VI St. Kevin's students

decided to attempt a production.

Most credit obviously goes to Mr. Barnett, the director,

*J?3

who we all greatly respected and admired. He helped to form a pompous Lady Bracknell, a charmingly lightheaded Algernon, a more serious John Worthing, a calculating Gwendolen, a severe Reverend Chasuble, a sweetly unspoilt Emily and all characters of contrast and interest.

At the beginning most of the cast relaxed in the humour of the play but as 'the day' in April drew near, hearts and minds resolved to work consistently and hard. The result was a generally acclaimed school production with a professional air. Many people behind the scenes gave valuable assistance and aided to overall success. Many thanks from all to all. How many of us agree with Lady Bracknell's ". . . but ignorance is like a delicate exotic fruit, touch it - and the bloom is gone . . ."

When he became king all the fun went out of life. He no longer found maidens in distress or had to fight dragons.

Life was quite a bore for Charming now he was king. The only advantage was that he banned cabbage or even the word to be mentioned in his kingdom.

The peasants were very angry, so angry that they

THE GIFT OF SIGHT

Thank you God for the gift of sight

I'm a zookeeper with many a tale,

So we can see your love which shines so bright

Some are quite grizzly and may make you pale, It has been a rough life, a smelly one too,

So we can see our friends and family too And see all those who resemble you.

I'll be glad to leave this stinky zoo.

So we can see all colours and each passing day,

One thing that worries a respectable man,

So we can see your gentleness given in every way.

Is the bucket and spade, always in hand.

So we can see the sky, the stars and the moon,

There's also the feed, the fish and the slops, Every morning at eight - it never stops.

And then know that you will be coming soon.

So we can see each month and every year

The elephant showers me with his trunk,

And know so well Lord that you are near.

The hippo shoves me with his rump,

Simone Naulty, Form II Blue

I shudder as the lion stalks by, I'll be the meat in his next pie.

There's always children underfoot, And quite often covered with soot.

I never know just where they'll end, I'm nearly going around the bend.

But the day will come when I retire, And 1'11 leave all this mess and mire, I'll grab my hat and off I'll go, And have a holiday in the snow!

A silver mare, heavy with foal, Shuffles around restlessly, Then sinks to the soft grassy ground.

She rolls around as her foal is born.

The little foal is licked dr.y, Then it is nudged to its feet,

Its long thin legs collapse, over and over again, Still the patient mother nudges, Until her foal is on all fours.

The tired mother gives her foal a dr'nk, And rests herself.

It is a proud mare that brings

At 9.30 a.m. we arrived at Campion. We were the first school to have a retreat at Campion so we were privileged.

FORM THREE FORM III DEBATING

The conscientious efforts of the junior debating teams have certainly put Mandeville up with the greatest

I got a nudge and then a wink "The third one's rather cute!"

Much of their success must be attributed to the advice of

their helpful teachers, and every debater swells with gratitude. Although the senior debating teams have not made their presence as dramatically known as in previous years, Patrice Murphy of Form VI is to be commended for her effort and acceptance into the Victorian State Debating

The creeper starts as a little plant,

For they meant to do them in!

And slowly grows up towards its goal.

The audience was expectant -

Slowly but surely it climbs the trees,

The knees were knocking fast.

Like a child it climbs to see the sky.

Team members exchanged scared glances,

The creeper is a sign, a sign of new life,

The time had come at last!

As it crawls and covers the scars on trees -

Our chairyoman gave an intro,

The scars from an earlier life

Our bellringer gave a chime

It hides the wrinkles of old age

I stood up very slowly

As it strives up higher towards its goal.

For now the turn was mine!

MARY

During first term in Religion, we discussed Mary and what she meant to us in 1979. We said that she is real and that she knows what it is to be human. We found that she

is approachable and that it is often easier to come to God through her. She had courage to face difficulties in her life.

We said she understood other women, we found she is

gentle and calm, above the normal woman. Mary is the example for our life. We have really discovered that Mary sums up for us what a perfect woman should be. This is the challenge we face in our modern world.

hatreds,

That their antics are more daring

Than the tales that they're sharing.

God makes me try at things and not give up He is reassuring strength

We will never forget our new found friends.

We're hoping you will remember us too

But most of all God is

Because we will always remember you.

He lands the full weight of his body against the glass,

A battle we must fight together

but cannot make contact with his outside world,

To unite in all we say and do.

I sit and think

Once more the bird flies towards the glass, but the sudden overpowering force proves too much

- the hassles that I bear

and with agonizing pain,

And the love I do not share.

He falls to the ground; neck broken.

How much like man this bird seems,

Karen Murphy, Form III

In his bid for freedom he ruins the things precious to him.

Unlike this small, helpless bird, man is trying to escape from a self-made prison, But his tools have made it strong,

And soon enough, he too falls, hopes broken

We remember the men

Who were just faces in pictures, But in hearts were loved ones.

A smile is a symbol of love, Love is a sign of real life, Life is an object of God's creation,

So smile and you will be alive in God's world forever.

FORM FOUR POEMS

The trauma of writing a poem The room is packed with quietness The stagnance of thinking But the cogwheels of the brains can be heard

THE DEATH OF MY TOOTHPASTE

Once white and creamy, Thick and flowing,

Turning amidst the silence of trying to express

Proud to sit on the end of my brush, With bristles high and straight standing, Awaiting the call of my mouth.

Blue inked lines travel in symmetrical

an emotion.

proportional, horizontal tracks.

Across the rectangular wooden pulp that

The china bowl shining and glistening, Catching the foaming bubbles,

is my stationary stationery.

Repetitive lines scrawled over in forced labour,

Running from my mouth,

boring me, and all else who see them.

Shaaron Dalton, Form IV

Flowing down the gliding surface.

Now the tube all distorted

And bent out of proportion My lumpy, hard moras of paste Dreading the touch of my brush, With bristles bent and uneven, And residue embedded between the cracks.

Now my tasteless bubbles Drop painfully, Into a bowl of death.

The black ring whitens, As the slush, plunders down the sides

And dies down the rusty drain.

Mainly this weekend was to get together, away from our everyday life of one day to the next without thought; to retreat to somewhere where nothing else mattered except God and those around you. We had discussions on subjects which I think have at one time or another disturbed us all. The teachers who organised the weekend gave us films and stories which we also discussed. We exercised our artistic capabilities on collages and other pictures. All of these had deep effects on us and everyone tried to be a part of the group. The Eucharist we prepared and celebrated together on the Saturday evening, was a really prayerful experience. Father Martin helped us to

The morning air was crisp and sweet

But our excitement and enthusiasm were not daunted.

As it always is on the mountain.

REACHING OUT

A shallow smile followed anger

Sr. Ruth Winship

And she held out her hand.

I saw through her, Only briefly,

CHAMPAGNE

And saw hate in her face.

POP, goes the cork, tiny bubbles rush for a breath of air.

Through the slender neck is poured the frothy, bubbly liquid.

She hated me... silently...

And in that minute I saw a hate so intense

That I shrank away from her outstretched hand.

And then, I thought that I should love, So I pul out my hand,

Never ending.

When she smiled

I see people, I see red lips consuming the delightful concoction.

I see happy faces, I see people who love life.

I felt the sun break through.

FORM FOUR THE FLOWERS

It's gone for ever,

Carefully twisted and arranged, Into magical and wondrous design, So lovingly watched and admired,

And now only memories Are left.

So hard to imagine, Yet so hard to accept,

Its beauty exists for only a few short days, Until its very life and incentive to live, Is drowned in a sea of colourless liquid,

To him it was nothing, To be concerned about, I wonder how he feels,

In which it is placed for beautiful intentions, But thoughtlessly murdered,

The truth he dare not shout,

For all its loveliness.

My heart feels, A piece missing and

Kathy Garretty, Form IV

Is never to be Found.

THE FIZZ IN MY COKE

Somehow I feel no anger,

The tilted bottle spewed birth to the embryonic gas,

Towards this male, Who broke and kicked me, To the ground.

I don t th nk he realizes, And he probably never will,

Ejaculating the liquid foam; Life released the enzymes of death, As they writhed in dying ecstacy.

Fizzle, Fizzle

Mrs. Rachel Haskell

How COULD one imagine, Of the hurt, feel deep down inside,

The fluid froth foamed and fought Fought the chilling air, who,

He would not have a,

Breathed evaporation over,

Second breath

The dying bubbles.

For my feelng or my pride.

GOLDEN SHADOWS OF THE PAST

Dusk came down on a gentle night,

To shroud the world in grey, Man in his lonely house by the sea, Welcomed the end of a bleak winters day.

He barred the door then stood at the windo W,

Intending to shut out the light of the day.

But he found himself staring far out to sea, Reliving glories long passed away.

SOMEWHERE BETWEEN YESTERDAY

He stood mighty and tall on the wooden deck,

AND TOMORROW

In the phantom days of old.

The bitter spray in vain lashed the cheek, Of one who was strong and upright and bold.

Memories can be beautiful...

Looking behind on the faint past But life is too brief to dwell on yesterday...

Death is too near to fret what the future holds, Live for the present and revolve on the wheel of now,

His eyes grew misty as memory stirred, They shone as they looked out to sea.

For friendship and glory, hope and love,

For somewhere between yesterday and tomorrow is

Are linked in his heart with the sea.

today!

A part that only you could share,

A part that did not belong to me, but rather

belonged to you.

For I am not only myself but rather I am you too, Now you are gone and some of me has gone, In a way it is beautiful that it has left me,

For it did not belong in my body but rather in yours.

I have, I feel, some compensation in you leaving me,

Reels and reels of coloured Cotto j. all t'ed in a knot,

For I know that wherever you go, I go too, Because that small part of me is with you, It is not with you for a short time but rather

Lost not on my behalf, but rather on yours, For they say that one and one make love,

I'm desperate. I throw all down.

It rolls along the floor

I do not wat to pick 't up

And without you that love is lost, My life is lost, without you.

I walk straight out the door.

FORM FIVE ALLIANCE FRANCAISE

THE FORM V CHRISTIAN LIVING CAMP

On the 6th May, some fifth form French students went to the Alliance Francaise building in North Melbourne for

Mitcham Hills was one of the venues for this year's Christian Living Camp with Xavier College. Approximately seventy students attended the camp along with

the second Cafe Theatre. It was an authentic reproduction of a French cafe one would see along the 'Champs Elysee'.

The programme included singing, dancing, and sketches

about eight adults. Those days will be long remembered by both teachers and students alike.

(all in French of course). During the performance the audience was served a French supper and wine. The evening was very enjoyable and proved most successful.

The theme for this year's camp was that of communication, a very appropriate theme since in this day and age communication seems to have fallen into a rut, not only between people, but between ourselves and God. Personally, I have never questioned exactly what communication is, but rather have accepted it to be talking

Margie Hurley, Simonette Varrenti

to another person. Communication, however, came to me

in many other ways during those days away, and I am sure that they will not be forgotten quickly. Communication through non-verbal qualities, touch, action, gestures, meditation and many other things. One of the most important lessons that I think was gained from the camp was that of an incredible type of trust which we can, if we wish, place in another person to help us along on our way towards eternal life. This type of trust came very much to the forefront in our amusing but very fruitful trust walk.

Confronted with the idea of a Christian Living Camp one generally immediately takes the viewpoint of a very regimented three days of prayer and reconciliation. The three days were spent very much in prayer and reconciliation with God, yet the atmosphere in which these activities were experienced was relaxed, and yet very

reverent. The Eucharist was celebrated twice during our stay at the camp and each was very different from the

other. The first mass was organised by the students and the second by Fr. Durser and the team. Although the two were totally different they both performed the desired wish to unite us closer to our Lord.

Unnoticed and disregarded, stands the clump.

Another extremely interesting exercise in which we participated while we were away were the meditation sessions. These sessions were enjoyed immensely by all in that they gave us a total awareness of all that surrounds us, both people, nature and ourselves, our movements and

even our breathing. This time of meditation gave us a great

opportunity to recollect on all of the different activities that had united us as a group over the three days. The camp carried out its aims to its greatest capacity in that we came away generally with a totally new concept of what communication is and how through different aspects of communication we can get that little bit closer to others

A CONCISE HISTORY OF OUR YEARS AT SCHOOL

by Sue Hanrahan - School Captain

I was faced with the task of compressing 13 years of incidents and fun and hope that this will suffice as a comprehensive record of our school life from 1967-1979.

The predominant memories from kindergarten days involve boys, clean fingernails and handkerchiefs and inaccessible play equipment. Mother Aloysius effectively trained us to be the kinder's after-school answering service and occasionally we hear

the echoes of "Good afternoon and for whom are you calling?" and sigh for lost etiquette.

Grade One passed as an endless succession of multicoloured Lisa Brophy

alphabet charts and excursions to the zoo but as Joanne Grogan so aptly said - "Grade One? - gee that was a long time ago!"

However, Grade Two has a nice mingling of social and religious memories. After sharing first communion and confession, the

boys and girls tearfully separated and moved on. Third grade was an exciting era: writing, our first Mission Concert and Sister

Lena's "um" fines.

Elastics, skippy and painful stumbles on the asphalt bring Grade Four to mind, along with Miss Hill's speech lessons, unorthodox detentions and a class full of orthodontal equipment.

In 1972, we returned to school to be confronted by the

replacement of the front lawn by a ploughed field; the grotto, the gully and the massive pine trees had all disappeared. It was at our presentation of a slightly shortened version of "A Wizard of Oz" that Jenni Cooke emerged as an aspiring Judy Garland (later to be Leonie Browne

superseded by Sue Height).

Two changes occurred at the beginning of Grade Six: Sister Margaret and Sister Jane arrived to take charge of Junior and

The Mission Concert provided sixth grade with a perfect opportunity to shine - their obvious talent helped to make it one of the best productions of the Junior School. But undisputedly, our overnight excursion to Grantulla was "the event of the year:' After a wild €V

two days in the heart of the beautiful downtown Sherbrook Forest we came back ready for anything! !

In 1974, we apprehensively entered the Senior School and the huge onslaught of "newies" broke us into three classes instead of

inspired by "Happy Days:' It was also Centenary Year and Mandeville was hostess for the first Loreto Music Camp. Our limited political knowledge was thrown into turmoil by the diverse opinions of Miss Howard and Mrs. Dowd on the sacking of the Whitlam Government.

Form Three was our year of fun and quickly passed as we watched a large assortment of teachers come and go. Then, after many years without making contact we were propelled into St. Kevin's hall for dancing instruction in the first half of Form Four.

In the Progressive Barn Dance a few old second grade classmates were re-discovered. Wednesday Programme was highly acclaimed by all and gave us a chance to broaden our skills in new areas. We presented another production of "The Wizard of Oz'; slightly more successful than the last. Our camp at Somers gave us yet

Form Five hit us like a whirlwind and we did not stop going all year. The tennis-a-thon finally took place and the new library encouraged more study (and noise). Wednesday programme brought about the productions of "Our Town'; "Bendigo or Bust" and "Pirates of Penzance" We had much to do with two ,

schools that were crammed with gorgeous hunks! "Pygmalion" was produced at St. Kevin's with the girls stealing the show and a Xavier/Mandeville retreat was organised. The latter packed us off in two groups, one to Clivedon and the other to Mitcham Hills -

needless to say it was a great success, although perhaps on a more social than spiritual level. We were excited to participate in the Form Five and Six Social at the Dorchester. In third term we

voted for councillors and sports captains and after our exams we sadly wished good luck to those who had decided against

Anne Kloester

endeavouring to matric.

We have now reached the height of our education - matric.

The compensation of having survived these years of trauma is the Common Room which accommodates our weary bodies and provides us with a gossip centre. We have had our blazer pockets embroidered with "Form Six - 1979': Our spiritual needs have

been catered for in a retreat to Macedon, "Stranger" camps and Marriage Encounter. The most exciting and gala event of the year was the Form V and VI dinner dance at Dennis House.

We have been around for a long time and done a lot of growing up together. Looking back - the teachers we have trained, the nervous fits we have provoked, the rooms we have re-decorated, the rise and fall of Toorakanrooin, the oval and everything else has helped me to see just how good our school life has been. Next year we will have gone, but hopefully memories will linger on.

THE FINAL DEFEAT

In a dark musty corner

With much effort his torpid body Slowly moves to a stooped standing position

Of an old attic He crouches

His back is hunched

And groans softly.

He leans heavily against the wall.

Shivering, sweating, Gasping for every breath,

A gentle, faded beam of light

Looking beyond reality The lucid swirls of rich colour.

Shines through the bars of the smal window The side of his face is caught in the soft light

His mind, inert,

He sways his heavy head

Succumbs to a power

Noises, lights, spinning around in his brain Fleeting thoughts he can no longer comprehend Equilibrium of reality has been removed.

From a battered street lantern

f

Over-ruling all self will,

Its pieces shattered.

He tries to stand

He groans a deep coarse groan

Edging his boney shoulder

And sinks to the attic floor

Up against the wall

A crumbled heap motionless in an old dark attic

All synthesis seem dislocated.

NOW, GIRLS .

Like every other Form Six class that has ever passed through a school, we are the form which seems remote from the others.

Perhaps it is the pressure of H.S.C. or suggestions of maturity that makes the sixth formers react as they do. Whatever the cause, it may safely be said that no other form is like sixth. r?ft

The oddities of a form six student range from sport fanaticism (a disease which leads to athlete's foot) or common room tea and coffee addiction (resulting in severe cases of insomnia). At lunch time the sixth formers are scattered all over the school - and

further. The sporting people bound out of the common room, cradling acute indigestion, to be harassed by teachers or cheered Ruth Telfer

by captains.

H.S.C. tension is released by ball-bashing; the netball people attempt to wind each other; the hockey players aim hockey balls at shins; while the volleyball visciously aim to hit their opponents;

other students remain warm and cosy (?) in the common room.

Their cries reach the point of hysteria as they relate the latest weekend antics.

The common room is well used and well loved. It's comfy chairs have been the soothing force of the year. Many matrics are seen sinking into their 'Genoa velvet' covers, fighting desperately against anger and depression or hiding from teachers who are in search of absconders. These chairs, which stand solidly at various 4

intervals around the common room are also witness to the larks of some adventurous sixth formers. Records have been broken and

rebroken as they try to fit the maximum number of people into Karen Treloar

one of these majestic specimens.

Whether humanities or science students we all have two subjects in common, English and Religion. Religion classes this year have certainly been an experience ! By the end o f second term all

students were proficient in the art of non-verbal communication (having been encountered by marriage encounter people) and there is a hope that third term will be quieter, as a result.

This hope will probably not be realised because, as happened in the two previous terms, there will be a number of events to which all form six look forward and about which they spend their idle hours talking. First term witnessed boy friends and the fifth and sixth form social. An event preceeded by gossip about what to wear and who to take. Second term talk revolved around conflicts

Ball, failing exams and boyfriends. With such stimulating conversation one can hardly imagine the Common Room being a silent retreat. As the saying goes "One flew east, one flew west, One flew over the cuckoo's nest:'

FORM SIX THE ROLE OF WOMEN TODAY - STILL ANYONE'S GUESS

Western society experienced enormous social change during the defiant years of the 60's. Conflict over the Vietnamese war provided an articulate prelude to the explosion of the Women's Liberation Movement, one of the most extensive expressions of anger and bitterness over society's attitudes to women's rights since the sufragette campaigns at the turn of the century. After the frenetic activity of those turbulent years, the 70's appeared calm and controlled. As the new decade opened, the truly liberated

woman emerged: cool, assured, a completely fulfilled human being - or so the lingering feminists told us. Graciously granted legal equality, bra-burning ceased (it was now considered passe), and we liberated women settled back into a life of carefully

0

Pauline Wallis

watchful independence.

For the new-found equality of the sexes did require careful watching: the problent was not so much the men, who continually forgot our new status, but the women who had been bystanders in the earlier struggle, and who now seemed willing to sink back into a distressing state which was little advanced from the original. It seemed that they did not want to be liberated - a most perplexing problem for the feminists who were still proclaining the advantages of their advocated lifestyle.

It is only now that anyone is daring to suggest that perhaps we are not so much liberated as confused. According to the feminists, 4

any woman who remained at home to care for husband and children was meant to feel cheated and unfulfilled, having been

denied the opportunity to lead an interesting life in the competitive work force. If the choice was hers, then she was made to feel not only dull, dreary, and boring, but also guilty for not having had more drive and ambition. The suggestion today is that women should be allowed to assert their right to be anything they

Lisa Watson

desire: homemaker, dedicated career woman, or a moderate

combination of both. An ideal goal which, if achieved, would make woman undoubtedly the most privileged members of our community - few other people can today claim such freedom.

Not surprisingly, men recognize the privileged attitude of this new aim, and are now protesting their own rights. Women have supposedly risen from the shadow of suppression, to stand up and stridently shout "I am Woman . . . I can do anything:' Men

protest that they themselves are not permitted this totally free choice between family and career, and they wish to have this sexual inequality recognized. Will men's liberation be The Cause

Elizabeth WHY

ofthe 80's?

We are at present in the backlash of the forward thrust of the 60's, a jumbled, confused mess of roles and rights. Women supposedly happy with their substantial achievements, are now discovering a new discontent with their lot: men appear restless and unsatisfied with the traditional roles with which they are burdened. Perhaps we shall see a swing toward male domestication and female dominance! Whichever way the result lies, it is unlikely that there will be a universally joyful acceptance

of the new rights and roles claimed by either sex.

FORM SIX MISCELLANEOUS

Just a few things that need a mention. Firstly, the old forgotten school bus, their drivers and mostly the bus girls. There are two rival routes - the Kew and the Outback (Ivanhoe, North Balwyn

and Bulleen) and these have been running for so long it was inevitable that sooner or later they'd receive comment in the school magazine.

I'd like to say that we bus girls are marvellous. On the whole

(and on the bus) we're a quiet and self-sacrificing lot and on the Outback bus at least we've developed a real loving community.

Nothing much ever happens on the bus that you'd call exciting.

There are the daily de fiances of red lights and regular late runs.

Sometimes there's a little antagonism between the seniors ( who try to keep uncertain order) and the younger forms.

A comment once made which is no doubt true - "Those

matrics think they are so good:' Mrs. Anouk Smetana

Secondly, the councillors - dearly loved by one and all, seen

lurking behind bathroom doors and parading down at the tram stop adorned with hats and polished badges. Religiously we visit

our own particular classes once a week (and sometimes more than once, much to their dismay). The story of the councillors sometimes seems very dismal, but our energetic Captain and ViceCaptain provide periodic boosts to our morale.

We haven't succeeded in abolishing hats or smoking or developed school spirit to the extent we'd hoped, but none the less

we've made our mark and been there in full (if not loud) support.

Thirdly, I think the Fifth and Sixth Form social requires some

Z

remark. After worrying about dresses, tables, tickets and partners (sometimes called "boys"), all first term, was it worth it? Do we remember it with a twinge of embarrassment or pleasure. The answer speaks for itself. For those who weren't there, imagine 10,000 squashed toes, waving feathers, poisonous food, Miss Patricia Ryan

throbbing headaches and pulsating crowd of hysterical idiots (teachers, students and partners). All in all, it was a memorable, hilarious night (as far as we can remember).

SPORT 1979, I am pleased to say, has been a great year for sport at Mandeville. Unlike recent years this year looked to be

most unpredictable, mainly because of the school's involvement in various new activities.

The new competitions in Athletics, Netball (Form VI), Softball and Swimming offered us a challenge and a renewal of team spirit. The standards in these competitions were very good and showed the tremendous ability and sportsmanship of many of the girls involved in each team.

Hopefully these competitions will be kept on in future years and Mandeville will be as successful.

One of the most rewarding aspects of being Sports Captain is the variety of sports with which I am involved and the girls I have been able to get to know through involvement. Because I don't specialise in just one aspect of sport, I am able to be involved in a variety of sports all year round, which is great.

Special thanks to Mrs. Schaefer and the Physical Education Department for making my year really enjoyable and for whose help and support I am most

grateful.

BASKETBALL

Basketball this year has grown to include the

Thanks especially to the help of Mr. Crowe, who has kindly given his free time to fostering basketball within the

RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES

This year it was decided to break away from traditional sport and introduce the Form Fives to recreational activities. The intention has been to encourage girls to

participate in activities outside school and make full use of

The rowers for example, competed in a regatta on Albert Park Lake and defeated Kilmaire and Siena to win a splendid trophy.

The gym and fitness and trampolining groups use the facilities at Brendan Edwards; including the eucalyptus

Once again Mulhall House regained the Shield at the Inter-House sports. The weather was superb, the contest very close and the sw'mmers retained their zest throughout the afternoon. Helen Gray won the Hollywood award for the Champion Swimmer and Patrice Savage narrowly defeated Vanessa Feakes for the title of Champion Diver.

The Loreto Mandeville Invitat'on Athletics meeting was held for the first time on 6th May, 1979 at the Duncan

McKinnon Oval, Murrumbeena. Seven colleges and grammar schools were invited: Morongo C.E.G.G.S., Shelford C.E.G.G.S., St. Cather'ne's Toorak College, Tintern C.E.G.G.S., St. Margaret's and Ballarat and

DIVING

A very popular sport at Mandeville reached a high standard this year due to the many entries in the Inter-

House Swimming Carnival. Patrice Savage was declared the Champion Diver and many junior competitors showed promise for the future. The Loreto Diving team entered the Victorian Championships. The team is Vanessa Feakes. Sue Kiernan, Nicola Morris, Erin Magee, Gabrielle Howard and Megan Tauro.

Loreto's senior softball team joined the Royal Park Softball Association and played every Saturday in first term. Due to the Association and consistent training our standard lifted considerably. We were extremely successful in reaching the Grand Final at Royal Park in the U/17 Grade, for our first year in outside competition.

Special softball uniforms were acquired by the girls in the Loreto school colours of royal blue and gold.

GYMNASTICS

At the recent Performing Arts Display the gymnastic

team gave an exhibition of Mat sequence, Balance Beam, Vaulting and Tumbling. Although somewhat lacking in space on the stage, it was a delight to see some of our skilful performers. Vanessa Feakes, a member of the Victorian Gymnastics Team, was winner of the Open Section. Rosemary Hass won the junior section and close runner-up was Danielle Shield.

1 This year's hockey season began with greater enthusiasm

than has been apparent in past years. The introduction of P inter-house hockey matches was met with a great response

j from both senior and junior teams. These inter-house matches proved to be excellent practice for our inter-

school matches, the results of which showed a great improvement in the overall hockey standard.

Despite this improvement, the matric team was soundly defeated by the staff, with the score being 2-0! Watch out next year staff! Due to encouragement from Donna

Mortimer, hockey has become a much stronger sport in the school.

Losing her does not mar the privilege of having known her at all. At 19 she was a vivacious happy girl who could not resist delving into every corner of humanity, who's thirst for knowledge was unquenchable and who's energy was infinite. She had everything going for her.

Some then may say that her death was pure tragedy of the most unnecessary kind. For us, who no longer have the companionship and constant inspiration of her presence, it is tragic but for her it is a fulfilment of everything she hoped to achieve. One cannot help thinking that now she
