on a disaster course regarding education. There i a need for a level of sanity to prevail in order to repair the crumbling foundations of our education system. Many of the changes implemented during dle course of the last few years are worthy of praise, but a number leave much to be desired. If one wishes to prepare tomorrow's leaders adequately for that which lies ahead, it is essential that one strives to maintain certain mores and standards that are acceptable to the broader community. Finally, \vithout wanting to sound too pe simistic: if onc were not to hold on to what one now has in education and build onto that, then the entire connotation of "education", as one has come to know it, \vill be lost.

EDITORIAL There is no doubt that education is experiencing a decidedly trying and disturbing period for all interested parties: parents, educators and most importandy, the pupils/students. Teachers arc being retrenched, schools are being closed and standards are being lowered. The question arises: \Vhat price education? It is time to be totally frank and hone t: education standards in outh Africa are being lowered to accommodate the less fortunate, the le s privileged, the disadvantaged, whichever term one wishe to use. But at what price? It is imperative that all persons involved in the education infrastructure should meet and assess the situation immediately, before it is too late. Constructive criticism supported by positive resolutions arc needed, because South Africa i

FROM THE Over the past eight years in this article I have tried to highlight tho e events which were pecial to that year. Thi year \vil! be no exception. 1992 will always be remembered for the hectic rapid decisions which had to be taken concerning the po sible tran ition from a state school to a state-aided school (Model C). The School Management Council, with the con ent of parents, went ahead with the change in status. The immediate impact was that parents now had to accept greater financial responsibility. However, parents now also have the opportunity to play a more influential role in formulating school policy through the School Management Council. The addition to school facilitie continued in 1992. A school museum ha been built and should be fitted and stocked by the end of the year. Thi hand ome addition has been the result of a generou donation in memory of Mr Eric Ta ker, one ofWynberg's teaching greats. 1his year the school has al 0 initiated a cholarship Fund which in its initial year topped RlSO 000,00 in capital. The following scholarhips are now available: The Old Boys' Union cholarship Mathew Family cholarships, Lennox Scholarship, Rotary cholarship and PTA cholarships. A Scholar hip Committee has been formed. I leave Wynberg at the end of this year knowing that it ha been a privilege to be headmaster of this school and thankful for the meaning it ha given my life. Rosemary and I leave being extremely proud of Wynberg Boys' High.

Mr RAlgie

pupil leadership, and changes in school uniform including new prefects' blazers. Staff development sessions and Staff Seminars are held regularly. The development of media facilities including a fuBy equipped computer centre has taken place, as well as many other innovations. Mr Algie has also paid much anention to the development of the sports' facilities. The Wynberg House site comprising a magnificent cricket oval with a handsome clubhouse and score-room, together with a smaBer field for juniors, is a tremendous asset for the schooL It also serves as the hockey headquarters in the winter. The Bill Bowden Pavilion on the HoBow with its function room, comminee room, changing facilities and two glass-backed squash courts, is an outstanding facility. The Honow has had its drainage completely revamped and the latest acquisition is the Eric Tasker Museum built to form part of the school building. He always saw education in the wider sense, and encouraged the fullest co-operation between staff, parents and pupils. He was also very interested in the activities of SAT A and encouraged his staff to become involved, and he took a strong lead in promoting fellowship and understanding bet\veen Wynberg Boys' High and the other Wynberg schools, as wen as other schools in Cape Town. Mrs Rosemary Algie has proved to be a perfect headmaster's wife. Extremely supportive, she has always been a charming hostess, fully involved in aB aspects of school life and one who could be completely relied upon to do the right thing. She has been weB liked and respected by all who have come into contact with her. She has played a very important part in Mr Algie s contribution to the school. She made a particularly significant contribution to the general improvement and beautification of the school grounds. Wynberg has progressed and grown under Mr Algie's leadership. Amongst the many highlights of his career here, the 150 celebrations would probably rank uppermost. So many highly successful and varied activities took place during 1991 and he undoubtedly played the major role in the planning, and providing the drive and inspiration for this very significant event. Mr and Mrs Algie have been most successful and they will be remembered as having played a very important part in the history of the school. The school is most grateful to both of them and wishes them every happiness and success in the future.

TRIBUTE TO MR ALGIE Headmaster, Rowan Craig Algie, retires from the teaching profession at the end of 1992 and so another chapter in the long history of Wynberg Boys' High School comes to an end. Only the fifth headmaster of this century and the shortest serving one, having taken up the post in January 1984 Mr Algie has undoubtedly made a very big impact on the school. He has steadily built and expanded on the sound foundations laid by his predecessors. He has been both a traditionalist, who set and insisted on the highest standards of involvement, discipline and performance from both staff and pupils, as well as a progressive, who has innovated and been open to new ideas and influences. A latcral thinker, he has constantly searched for new methods and solutions to improve the school. Evidence of this was his devotion of a large amount of time, searching and experimenting for a more efficient time-table, and a bener utilisation of time and subject choice. He was not interested in window dressing or glossing over problem areas, and has constantly tried to face problems head on. He has always put the interests of the pupils and the school first. Mr Algie has been a man of utmost integrity who earned respect by not expecting anything of others which he was not prepared to do himself. He has worked extremely hard and led from the front. He was also adept at developing and using the strengths of the people under him, which resulted in a number of new innovations during his time at Wynberg. Amongst the changes under his leadership has been the emphasis on the pastoral side of the school. In his time there has been a development of the role of the Standard Heads, as weB as the role of Subje.ct Heads. This has been stressed and much wider responsibilities have been placed on their shoulders. The introduction and encouragement of new sports, and new Clubs and Societies, and the introduction of a Societies' Period and Open Night have taken place. Introduced during his time have been the highly prized Supera Moras Awards, and a Colours Comminee, with far more recognition being given to academic and cultural achievements. Academic and Cultural Assemblies have become a regular feature. Other changes include a yearly Std 9 camp, a most impressive school leaving ceremony for matrics, a bigger emphasi on the development of

OBITUARY: MR HENRY CAWOOD many ways from his association. Even after he cut hi formal links with the chool he stiU maintained a keen interest and \\'a often een at ch ol functions. His election as an Honorary Life Member of the Wynberg Old Boys' Union is evidence of the high e teem in which he was held. This honour is only rarely bestowed. Although Mr Cawood died a relatively young man he accompli hed a great deal in the time available to him. He is sadly missed, and the world i both a poorer place for his untimely pas ing, but a better place for him having been here. The deepe t sympathy of the chool Community are with his widow, June, and hi family. R.P.C.

The untimely death of tr Henry Cawood on 6 August 1991 came a a great shock to his many friends. Pasl member of the Wynberg Boys' High School Committee, and the immediate past Chairman until his resignation in 19 7, he \\'a indeed an outstanding friend of the choa!. Educated in Boksburg he joined Afrox as a young man and was appointed General Manager of the Cape and outh West Africa Ln 1972, a position he held until hi dealh. His two sons Mark and Michael, arc pa t pupils of the chool, both having been prefects and good sportsmen.

The matric results of 1991 were exceptionally pleasing and must rank as the best Accounting results for many years. Congratulations to Christian Evans, Ian LiddJe, Sean O'Connor, Dean Ollis and Brent Tipping on achieving A aggregates. Accounting at Wynberg is healthy at the moment. Enrichment continues to be an important area in which pupils may broaden their scope and the Std 7 A class have been doing project work on the Stock Exchange. It has been a pleasure to notice the interest shown by some of the more senior pupils in such areas of enrichment. Next year we hope to be able to make use of the computer room on a regular basis to introduce pupils to the relevance of computers in the field of accounting.

Of tremendous concern is the general decline in the number of good results since 1988 when there were four pupils who obtained an A for Boilogy. The method of instruction will have to be evaluated and pupils will have to have more pressure 25

Our congratulations to Ian Liddle and Alisdair Eddie on obtaining A aggregates in the 1991 Cape Senior Certificate Examination. We have been experimenting with film study this year and we have also drawn up a more challenging p06try syllabus for our Std 9s.

The citizenship lessons took place in the pastoral period. The Std 7-10 pupils had one citizenship period per week and the Std 6 boys had one period every two weeks. Unfortunately the short 30 minute period made it difficult to invite outside speakers. However, we did manage to arrange for two theatre groups to stage two plays during an extended pastoral period. They were "A Matter of Fact", a play about Aids, and "War on the Road", which dealt with road safety. Examples of the topics covered during the citizenship classes are as follows: self-defence, national conscription, fmancial planning and debates on topical issues, e.g. the South African political situation.

The 2 td 6's have produced a magnum proventum. With three A-symbol and fi\'e Bymbols in eptember the td 7 class of 1993 looks very promising. The four matric pupil - Mark Aaron, Richard Carter, Jason Lee and Chad VenabIe - havc worked very well this year. Their eptember examination resulted in a 76,5% average. Their projects - ranging from Cae ar' Demi e to Architectural Design in Rome - demanded much thought on their part. T.O'R.

The matric class of 1991 did not fulfil our expectations as they obtained only twO A's instead of the expected six. Ian LiddIe and ruart Anderson ,,"ere the [WO A candidates. Fourtecn boys entered for this year' History Olympiad and Craig Hayman and Matthew Gro\\'don reached the finals. To date the results ha\'e yet to be received. \Xlynberg was also the host to this year's Young Historians Conference during our Ans Week. The td 7's had to research their family history as projects thi year. These projects ha\'e made interesting reading and it eems d1at many boy' grandparents and great-grandparent have left their mark on A hi tory.

With so much to be co\'ered in lhe field of serwork and grammar there was little time for the Std lO's and the td 's to enter the competition that were open to all Latin pupils. The Unseen tudy Seminar offered by the Univer icy was held again this year. Time and commitment prevented ome of our pupils fr0111parucipating. 27

The 1991 manic resuJts were fair, with five boys obtaining Higher Grade A's and one a Standard Grade A. Ten boys failed maths on the Higher Grade while five failed maths outright (including one Higher Grade candidate). Seventy-two Wynberg boys entered for the Maths Olympiad this year. Six of the e boys were placed in the top 1 000 pupils nationally, and went through to the second round. They were A Biermann, R Carter, M Fletcher, P Ginsbcrg, J van Heerden (all Std 10) and J Orford (Std 7). None of these were placed in the top 100 in round two. Fifty-two boys entered the annual UCT Maths Competition. The best placings here were Richard Carter (Il th) and Philip Ginsberg (18th) in td 10. At the start of the fourth term the annual Wynberg Maths Competition was held. The winner of the Senior Section was Werner van Kets, while James Lu was placed top in the Junior Section. Mr Rushby marked Paper I of the matric external exam at the end of 1991, thus gaining invaluable experience which has been passed on to other members of the department. M.R.

responsible for the cost of media, looking after what we do have, is vitally important. About R6 000 was spent on new books. Of a total of 279 added to the stock, a number were good second-hand books donated by parents and friends whom we thank. Good progress has been made with the cuttings' collection, an attempt to provide the pupils with up-to-dare information. The library monitors, led by the committee of Phillip van der Byl, Ralf Moller and Lee Robinson, have done sterling work and they deserve the thanks and appreciation of the school. The audio-visual demands of the school increase every year as teaching and learning keep pace with technological advances. The Science, History and Geography departments now have their own te.levision sets and video recorders, and the viewing room serves the needs of the other departments. This year the Science department

The library has served the needs of avid readers (and some reluctant ones) and has supplied research opportunities for many pupils doing projects. Unfortunately proposed modifications to the library to make it more secure were not done this year, but hopefully this project \vill not be postponed longer than is absolutely necessary. Now that the school is solely

The td 6 pupil enjoyed their few practical period and were ,·ery keen to finish their models. Unfortunately they cannOt continue widl M.etalwork next year as the subject will be phased out of the school within dlree years. The td 7's broadened their knowledge of machine use and work hop safety while the Std 8's managed to complete a variety of model. Amongst the td 9 boys, copper and brass models have been much in evidence, while bra s jug two vices, a bed, furniture and art metalwork were produced by the td 10' .

ANTHOLOGY TIME

for us. Our entire society bends its effons towards fLOding more efficient way to use time, to save time, even to make time! How, I ask you, can anyone presume to make time? "Time passes according to the way you use it," I have heard before. "If you're busy, time passes faster." How can Manland be so stupidly arrogant lo assume that time "flows" according to our whim? Time is it own master, it is our perceptions of time thal change. Thus we arrive at the crux of the matter. The Human mind is physically incapable of grasping fully the concept of time. Our minds simply do not have the scope to deal with time, thus we childishly imagine our superiority over it. "What IStime?" I asked at the outset. Time is running out for us. \Vhat is time? It is Mankind's greatest enemy. Marc Secchia, Std 10

(fhis piece of writing was adjudged the winning entry in the Senior Section of the school's Writers' Competition.) Time. What is time? There is something subtle, something devious about time that defie our anemptS to rationalize it, a simple four-Iener word so innocuous at a glance, yet 0 impervious to scrutiny. It can move as slowly and inexorably as a lazy river, and yet strike with the s\\iftness and unexpectancy of a \'iper. The Webster's Concise Dictionary renders the following: time, n. measure of duration, whether past, present or future; age or period during wluch anything occurred or a person lived; present life or e.xistence; season; era and et cetera. It has been said by many wise persons that we begin each day with a free gift of 86 400 seconds, to use or abuse as we ~ill. This time sweeps forward relentlessly, econds to minutes, minutes to hours, hours to days. Weeks fade into seasons, seasons transform into years, and the years pass us b} like an expre s-tram, rushmg us mto death. Is death CessaOODof ome-duration, or is it merely the beginning of the greater whole? Is it mere coincidence that almost all major religions teach "life after death" and peak about "eternity" \\1th yearning? Did God create time, or did time create God? During the nascence of planer Earth, time was mea ured in aeons; billions of years passed without remarkable inCident as dinosaurs roamed the primeval, steamy swamps. These dinosaurs, the reptile race, arc considered by e\'olutionists and sCIennsts alike to be the most successful creatures to inhabit Earth; they ruled supreme Then ome struck, and the repole ma ters vanished virtually overnight. What tale of woe or warning lies fossilized in their millions-of-years-old remains? Let us leap forward in time, to the modern information-age. What is the most common complaint that rises to our ears? The plaintive wail: "I don't have enough time!" Yet from a econd person, not much different from the first, we hear: "r have all the time in the world." What is so special about the second person that he pos esses more time than someone else? What is this strange quality mherent LOtime which makes it so imponant to our modem world? Time holds a certain mesmeric fascination

Months of planning and hard work went into this year's journey to " e"er- ever Land". Lush palms, fresh cut flower, pirate waiter, and soft music welcomed our matrics and their lovely partners to an enchanting garden scene, not soon lO be forgotten. Tinkerbell "her"self appeared a if from nowhere and entertained the guest with a magical dance of exquisite delicacy. Behind the scenes, a mouth-watering cuisi.ne was being prepared by caterer Elaine Bartram. For staners, a mixed seafood planer with generous helpings of mussels, shrimps and smoked angelfish. The main course featured thinly-sliced portions of roast beef, crispy roast potatoes, vegetables and salad. Chocolate mou se with cream provided the "grande finale" to a truly fine meal. Many mothers, under the capable supervi ion of "Irs Liz Mills, contributed in no smaU way to the success of the evening. The preparation of fresh cut flowers (l'v1rs Gloyne and her learn), the selection of green plants (Mrs Hey), ewing of waiters' uniforms (Mrs Finneran), supply of decorating material (Mrs Dreyer) and the washing up of dishes (Mrs Barnard and team) were all done with enthusiasm and considerable expertise.

OLD BOYS' SPORT The enthusiasm for the 150 Celebrations did not continue in 1992. The Summer port' Day had to be cancelled a not enough tearn could be raised and very few past pupils upported the Ad,letics Sports' Day. The Winter Sports' Day, on the other hand wa the most SllCCCsful yet, as 7 rugby team were present. Thank you to Mr Chri Luman who made thi pos ible, and we hope thi enthusiasm will continue into 1993.

STAFF SOIREE

ARTS'WEEK

The firSl "ariety concert held at the school for a number of year was held on the Thursday night. The e\'ening was very well supported and the audience was privileged LOsec a number of high quality acts. It \\'as pleasing to cc the variety of acts and the di"ersit)' of talent (often unnoticed) at the school. The Friday evening saw the first ever Staff oiree to be held at the school. Because of an unfortunate double booking (rugby at the Strand) the e\'ening wa not as well supported as it de erved [Q be. The staff performed a variety of "high" qualir)' act~ which were thoroughly enjoyed by the 19D-odd people who arrended. The Arts' Week was undoubtedly a succe and hould be repeated in the future.

For the first time in the hi~LOryof \X'ynberg an Arts' \X'eek was organised this year. Dc pite a couple of minor hitches the week wa a tremendous succes~ and will mo t certainly he repeated next ycar. The weck was from ,\\onday 17 Augu t until Friday 21 August and was well supported hy parents and pupils. Unfortunately the anticipated support from Old Boys was poor. The weck tarred off with a ocieties' E"ening whIch wa presented in conjunction with the \X'e tcrn Cape Young Hi torians' Conference. The Monda~ also saw the opening of our Arts Exhibition which was open for two weeks. This was held in the new Eric Tasker .\tuseum. An innovation this year was that all the societies' exhibitionl> \\'Cre held in the hall which worked very well. AJthough a number of societies held "ery good exhibitions, many were di~appointing as was the support on the nighr. On Tuc day evening a most enjoyable and entertaining J\lusic Evening was held in the school foyer. The renditions were of a high standard and appreciated by the audience. The evening wae; concluded with a chee e and wine party. A One-Act Play Fe tival was on the programme for the \X'edne day evening. Plays were put on by \X'ynberg Boy' and Girls' Junior, SACS and \X,'ynberg Boy' High. The Girls' High were al 0 due to arrend but withdrew al the last minute which up et the programme somewhat. Nevertheless the plays were of a high standard and attendance was good.

1992 was indecd a very active and busy year for !.he Cultural Committee. Our aim was to create a greater awal"eness among [ the boy at the school and lO enhance participation in cultural activities. The committee di\'ided the societies amongst the committee members so that each member had five or six societie to look after. Another measure implemented during the year was the organisation of the "Cultural Committee Report". Each chairman had lO keep a record which would be inspected by !.he Committee member in charge of the respective society on a regular basis. By adopting these measure, the Committee mo\'ed clo er to fulfilling it~ aim. Another wav the culrural activitie in !.he chool wen: enhanced wa by the increase in lhe level of communication between the Committee and the re t of lhe school. This wa ac omplished by ha\'ing regular announcement at assemblie and al 0 by upgrading the ocieties' noticeboard. Bc ide looking after the societie in !.he school and a I tmg in the running thereof, lhe Committee also had the duty of as isting in a number of activities like the lnterhou,e Onc-Act Plav Fe tival, lhe Choir Evening, the Carol E\'~ning, the major school drama production, "Wild Goo e Cha en, and the activities of CuI rural Week.

We started off the year with a trong challenge at the Athletic Sport' Day and were it not for a lapse in the organisation at the last moment, Van Riebeeck hould have won the day. Wc d.id poorly in thc wimming Gala. Once again, \ e huid have done vcry well taking into account the good swimmer in the House. We performed well during mo I of the other competitions. Van Riebeeck fini hed econd in the Friedlander hield this year. I feel that the House has done well ra achieve this, although the talent and potential is there lOha\'e filled first place. My thanks to all who have helped with the rgani a[ion of hou e activities and who kept thing running moothly e pecialJy Brynn Thoma (Hou e Captain), Paul Gerber (Deputy Hou e aptain) and Ian 'iiLI, who organi ed the winter sport activitie .

The prospect of a succes ful year was empha i ed by the marvellou performance by our athletes on winning the annual Sport' Day. Although not always as successful comment must be made of the tremendou spirit and willingnes with which our portsmen competed. Although we are not very culturally orientated, congratulation must go to Roger Jones and hi cast for a promising performance in the one-act plays, and lO Mark Aaron and hi team for their victory in the inter-house ches competitions. Thank al 0 to Allan Lipp and lhe members of C for their contribution to the House as emblie a well a to my committee and all involved with the running and organisation of the Hou e and it activitie .

Cricket at Wynberg remain trong. 15 side have been entered in the school ' leagues and there are enough spare players to warrant u entering further sides in the 4th term.

ell

One of the many aspects tl1at make cricket uch a fascinating game i it unpredictability. Games can be won or lo t within the pa e of a couple of over, but whatever tl1e ituation calls for, there i much to learn with the pas ing of each game. The difference at 1st Team level is the enormous power of concentration and commitment that the game demands. Whelher one i' in the field, bowling or at thc crease, each ball bowled presents a different situation. Po sibly the most important ingredient mi sing from the I st Team ha been their inability to produce these power of concentration. One thinks of the Plumstead game where things eemed el for a go d win but a feeling of complacency and lack of continuou pre sure co t u the winning result. Undoubtedly the ide ha talent. The individual performances were there during tl1e season. One think of Kallis' 100 against Rondebo h his 89 against Plum read followed by his 5 wickets; Rookledge' impres ive 50 against Rondebo eh

To be successful at anything one needs the COITect approach; the correct attitude. I firnlly believc that thi i where the ecrer of being a winner lies. Cricket. more than anything, demands this characteri tic. At [hi rage the attirude ha been reflected in our fielding, which wa alway of a high randard. The same cannot always be said for our batting and b wling. The match again t Montro e reflects this a peel. erting a target of only 107 run to win in ~5 over we were bowled out twO run hort. Clearly the me age was there: Be po itive in your approach, and be prepared to take on the oppo ition. Finally, a word of thank to Garth 1ruter for the manner in whi h he ha led the side; to the players who have made it a memorable fir t term of coaching at this level for me; and la t but by no mean lea t, to the parents who have been so supportive.

G Tn./ler (Captain and wicket-keeper) Kept well during the term, but wa forced out owing to injury toward the end of the ea on. He ha worked hard at his game and has hown a will LO succeed. Need to relax m re tend to be worried that he i going to fail - mu t play hi hot more po itively. J Ka/lis (Vice-Captain, top-order bat man and fir t change bowler) A good ea on aU round. He ha dcveloped a marure approaeh and i beginning to become an attaeking bat man. Unbelievably talented in all a pect of the game he is going to be a force in the game in years to come. B Mu/lwllalld (opening bat man) An inability to concentrate fully resulted in a disappointing term of cricket. Tend to go after the bowling too early flashing out ide off rump. IVBossel/ger (opening bat man) One of the younger members of the side, he lack the experience at this Ic,·el. Ha ome uperb hots, but wa rarrled by the opcning

anacks that he had to endure. Proved a competent wicket-keeper. M Munro (upper-order batsman) Has developed his own anacking game - pity he is stiU unable to wait for the correct ball. Has the ability to be a match-winner, and it is only a matter of time before a big total comes his way. Hudson (middle-order batsman) Lacks the self-discipline to make runs. Has a good range of shots, but struggles to keep the baU on the ground against the spin. Needs to work on his fielding which has shown lapses of concentration. A Whitehead (seamer, bowling inswinger) Must learn to vary his bowling. However, he did bowl a consistendy good line and length, but was often too predictable. I appreciated his wiUingness to work hard. Andrewalways looked sharp in the field. A Wnght (spin bowler) Alex was extremely unlucky with the ball. Many a batsman found him unplayable, and his ability to turn the ball both ways makes him a danger to any batsman. J Rookledge (upper-order batsman) Justin has vast talent. He is prepared to work for his runs, is still slighdy weak in his range of attacking shots. This will change as he becomes exposed to the game at this level. He has proved himself capable with the ball as well. W Denne (opening bowler) Bowled good line and length, but tended also to be predictable. Has developed his speed and accuracy, but needs to work on variation for this level of cricket. Has great potential. C Willoughby (opening bowler) Charl has the making of one of the finest leftarm quick bowlers the school has produced. Unfortunate to be forced out early in the season with a knee injury, but came back strongly, showing an ability to swing the ball both ways. Also played: K MarshalI, M Aetcher, L Johnson, R Davison.

The inability to convert 20's into 50's and the lack of 'line and length' bowling were the twO biggest downfalls of the team. With the talent in the side, both in the barring and the bowling department, bencr re ults should have been recorded. The match that illu trated the side's potential was against Bi hops. Bishops had u in trouble al 89 for 8, but thanks to a 57 T.O. by James Wells we were able to record a mode t 149 all out. Defending this total wa never going to be easy, but with spirited fielding and some of the best bowling rye seen, we bundled Bishop out for 52 runs. Concentration i the name of the game. Thi i something our boys will have to work at.

boundary to dismiss the last SACS batsman in a clo ely contested battle, showed that cricket is a team game which has much to teach schoolboys about the importance of working together.

5TH XI CRICKET Coaches: Team:

This was an enthusiastic team which keenly contested each match. Con idering that they also played other schools' and clubs' 2nd teams, they had a fairly good ea on. Morgan Poole wa an efficient wicket keeper who al 0 developed hi batting to the extent that he wa able to open the innings towards the end of the sea on. The batting was not dominated by anyone player, as there were good scores from Rowe (35), Lombard (28 and 41 not out), Parkin (23), Weeks (41, 25 not out, 44) De Beer (28) Poole (28) Kalt (20 not out) and Zeederberg (31), during the cour e of the season. Both earn bowlers and spinners had success during the ea on with opener Springen and leg spinner McCormick each taking 7 wickets. Some of the best performances were: Grisdale (3-20), Springen (4-13), Weber (3-20), Kalt (3-23), Zeederberg (3-8) and Clark (3-4). Darryl Grisdale captained the side well. He is a player with good natural bal! skill and should prove to be a bener batsman than his present cores indicate. The boys played well as a team upporting each other constantly.

Fa t and aggressive batting line and length bowling and very efficienr fielding was the key to the team's success. Some noteworthy individual performances were: Warren Weitz 62 and Gavin Crous 6 for 5 again t Westerford; Gavin Crou 84 and Marco de Oliveira 48 again t Rondebosch; Neil Gib on 5 for 21 against imon's Town. The team always seemed to be thoroughly enjoying their cricket and built up a wonderful team spirit which was probably owing to the fact that everybody had a chance to contribute to the tcam' suecc s.

useful contribution with either bat or ball. Although we ha\'e thi policy wc have had three players who really have ex dIed this year. Garrh Turvey, our captain, has been the mainstay of our batting, coring 272 run (H 73, ave 38,8). He ha also captained the team very well. Donovan Henry ha been our star bowler, raking 25 wickets during the term with his medium-fast deliverie . Our third maj rentributor has been our wicketkeeper, lake Be ter, who missed nothing behind the lumps and alomade some u eful comribuuuns with the bat.

Our (rong attacks by Kevin LiddIe and Adam Leighton were the major reason for our success thi term. Jacques Bock wa a talented opening bowler who i de tined for a memorable cricket career at Wynberg. Gareth Billimore is a keen allrounder who did well with both bat and ball. Garth Bruwer displayed many shots in a number of succe rul innings, and he is a player wonb watching in the future. With more commitment to per onal prac(i ing Robert Jeffer on, Peter Kirsten and Dale Barker will all do well in Wynberg cricket. No-one was keener than Chris Potterton, Gavin Tero and imon Raab and their enthu ia m made it a plea ure to coach the side.

A disappointing event in the third term was the loss to Pinelands in the quarter-finals of the Puma Cup - the first time in four years that Wynberg has not reached the final. However, this was compensated for in that the tearn won the annual indoor hockey tournament for the first time, beating Bishops in the final. That this tearn lost only three matches out of twenty-six is a reflection of the effort and commitment from everyone who represented the first team. Although seven players were selected for the various provincial teams, this was not a team of "stars", and the excellent record is due to a fine team effort. As always, the parents played a major role during the season. My thanks to all those parents who assisted with lifts, particularly during the Pinelands festival, and in taking the boys all over the Peninsula in search of Astroturf. Their support during the season is sincerely appreciated. As nine of the players who regularly represented the first tearn are in Std 8 or Std 9, 1993 promises to be an exciting season too.

centre back. Season illness. Good tackler; with improved hitting distribution; stopping

A Laubser: Sweeper, centre back. Used his speed to good effect. Tackling improved during the season, as did his hitting and stopping. Must learn to get ball opposite his right foot when distributing; must not "first time" in pressure situations. I Mills: Left half. Did everything required of a left half -tackled extremely hard and well, covered well, not afraid of Astro bums! Must change hitting and stopping style if these skills are to be improved.

Memorable Matches vs Kimberley Boys' High School 2-1 This was the second match of the Founders' Festival, the team having been a little lucky to draw the first one with Westridge 0-0. Down 1-0 at half time, eve.ryone showed a lot of determination and displayed the fighting spirit which characterised this team to come back in the second half to win. This was an important result in that, I think, it gave the players belief in themselves.

J Penzhom: Right link, right half. Better right half than right link, where lack of pace was exposed. Intelligent and gutsy player who put team talks into practice in the match situation. Disguises hit well and distribution generally good. Must work on speed and strength. J Heath: Right half, right link. The change from right half to Link gave Jason the chance to exhibit his flair and attacking skills. Beats an opponent deceptively easily, but must guard against trying to beat one too many. Generally good basics, but must get lower in the tackle, especially, and when running with the ball.

vs Fairmont 3-0 This was the team's first match in Cape Town, against a fancied Fairmont tearn. A clinical performance with goals coming from Denne, Mallory and Thomson gave us a good start to the local season.

D Grisdale: Left link. "Hot and cold" player. Basics generally good, but hitting needs some work. Good distribution when given some room. Rank bad tackling from behind his downfall; must control temper.

vs Rondebosch 3-1 Having lost to Rondebosch 2-0 during the first half of the season, this was a particularly satisfying victory. Down 1-0 after the ten minutes, we scraped a goal back before half time. In the second half there was only one team in the game. Definitely the best match of the season.

W Denne: Centre link. Outstanding basics; good tackler and good change of pace; reads the garne very well. Distribution generally good. Must become more goal hungry. Good vice-captain who motivated well and gave intelligent advice.

The 4th side ha had a atisfactory season. Many players came and \ ent from the side and players from lower sides often had to stand in for ill members during matches. Illness also caused low attendance at most practice and then obviously affecred match performances and team pirit. Rodney Jenkins captained the side well, and along with Keith van Heynigen was the team's mo tenthu iastic player. James Well wa the side's top goal- corer though many goals were mi sed thanks to the infamous "chip shot"!

Our 5th Team had an especially enjoyable hockey sea on this year. Our strong point really was good teamwork and fortunately it was a settled, stable squad with minimal shifting between lower and higher teams. Practices on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons never had a dull moment (and we seemed to lose every hockey baH we ever owned in the dreaded eabbage patch!). Our results were particularly good, with the team enjoying the Saturday morning fixtures immensely. All in all, we had excellent results, good teamwork (bar Wilson on a bad day!), and plenty of laughs. Thank you gentlemen.

It has been a mixed season for the U lSA hockey side and the team should have performed better than it did. No-one can reach the top in any sport without hours of practising the basics. Leigh Keanly is a highly talented player and has potential. His co-strikers were M.ichael Beattie, Donovan Cooper and Chris Potterton - all of whom have an abundance of talent. The midfield of Bruce Wilsnach, Mark Coetzee and Matthew Mabin had good seasons, but they need the rough and tumble of men's hockey to toughen them up. The defence of Adrian Goslett, Mathew Bailey and Warren van der Westhuizen were hardworking and they certainly never stopped trying. Gareth Coetzer and Bryan Watson shared the sweeper duties with Alwyn McCrae as goalkeeper. U 14 and U 15 are where the basic foundations are laid for 1st Team hockey players. They have the foundation; now it is up to them to achieve their goals.

This proved to be a strong side. Of the ten matches played, they won five, drew three and lost two. The whole team played weU from the beginning of the season and team spirit improved as the season progressed. Deserving special mention is Ryan Clark who really enjoyed scoring those goals. Special thanks to Warren du Toit for taking over as goalkeeper in mid-season. N.deC.

Bles ed with a large group of U 15 hockey players at Wynberg, it was a struggle for players lO make the B Team. Ha\'ing laid a solid foundation in 1991 the team played adventurous and anacking hoeke\' all sea on. Th~ introduction of the new obstruction rule in March was expected to cau e plenty of mayhem; instead, the team (mo t notably left-wing Donovan Mj)Jer) took to it impres i\'ely quickly. With Marco de Oliveira leading the goal corer to the opponent's circle, early results were most impres ive. Nevertheles , under di ciplined captaining both by Alistair Scon and Warren van der \X'e thuizen, the team never showed igns of becoming over confident.

Each and every player gave of his best which led to a keen spirit amongst the players. It wa a plea ure to coach the ide as everyone was very keen and willing to learn. Well done, chap. G.F. 94

An enjoyable season was experienced by a group of boys who worked together well to form a useful hockey team. Posses ing no stars, the team soon learned the value of team-work. Although they won only onc game during the first half of the season they improved so much during the latter half that they lost only one match - recording wins over their arch rivals Bishops, Rondebosch and SACS. The Indoor Tournament, played on the penultimate Saturday of the season, saw them going through unbeaten in their pool beating Westerford 2-0 in the semi-final and losing narrowly 1-2 to Bishops in the final. Stephen Wolff captained the side as a true gentleman and moulded them into the spirited team they proved to be at the end of the season. Goal-scorers were: S Wolff (3) K Liddle (3) R Fennessy (2) L Revington (1). Goal-scorer at the Indoor Tournament were: Wolff (6), M Bryant (4), A Clark (3), K Liddle

Jeremy]ackson was promoted to the D Team during the second half of the season and Pierre Groenevledt replaced him as a good captain. Paulo Rodrigues was also lost to this team as his hockey improved. Simon Howes must be congratulated on scoring all four goals against Bishops in our la [ game to secure a 4-3 victory in the dying moments. Many of the players started the season playing hockey for the flfSt time and the majority acquired some basic skills as the season progresed. All the players benefited from the fresh air and exercise. The large majority were enthusiastic about playing the game and thi combined with some newly acquired skills contributed to our relatively successful season. The parental support in a variety of ways was also greatly appreciated. G.J.C.

From a coach's point of view this wa a particularly enjoyable season. There was a splendid esprit-de-corps within the team, some fine play and an ever-present determination to maintain their admirable record. We also had enthusiastic support from the parents. All of the players displayed a marked improvement in form during the course of the season. Particular mention must be made of Gary Sasman, our team captain, who fully deserved his promotion ra the B Team for the final two matches. At the clo e of the cason the team had lo t only one match, against Bishop (1-2). The team played particularly well against Paarl Boys' High (5-1), Pinelands (3-0), SAC (3-0) and eruers,

Mr Polden - match and practice balls; Mr Kriel entertainment, helped on occasions by Messrs Blom and De Klerk; Mr Russel] - referees; Mr Stanford - sand and water; and Mr Pretorius programmes and press. A special word of thanks to Mr Connellan for all the work done in the 2nd term and to Mr Algie for his continuous support during the eason.

RUGBY The emphasis in coaching has not only been to teach the boys the necessary skills, but to promote enjoyment of the game. We obviously expect our boys to be competitive and give their best, as well as to develop the spirit in which the game is played. It is a well-known fact that team sport definitely has its place in the overall growth of the child and it is a pleasure to see the friendship and camaraderie that develops between team members. Rugby is about the people, friendships which last a life-time disappointments to overcome and broken spirits to mend. Rugby is about discipline, a way of life, a physical challenge. It is learning about oneself and one's fellow beings. Rugby isn't really about scoring points or winning matches at alL It's about doing things with the ball and and being inventive, being different. It is especially the latter which has been missing in Wynberg rugby these past few years. Wynberg rugby has shown an increase in numbers except in the U1S division which has showed an alarming drop. Hopefully with South Africa back in international rugby more boys will take up the game again.

Neverthcle~s, the leam recorded good victories again t Rondebosch (m'ice), Oro tdy, and a resounding victory against AC' (79-0). nfortunately the "Paarl syndrome" appears to still be with us, as on bOlh occasions against Paarl there wa no score al half-time, but ended up losing both games. It is time that we, the coaches and the players, adopted a more posio\'e approach for the~c games.

Nevertheless, they managed to hold their own against our traditional rivals and recorded good victories against SACS and Drostdy. Unfortunately, a number of the players were not prepared to work too hard to achieve success and therefore many of the games that were lost could possibly have been won. A great deal of thanks needs to go to W Love, G Kelroe-Cooke and W Tregurtha for captaining the side at various stages during the course of the season.

These two "social sides" had a number of other players in them this season but the above-mentioned 5th Team formed the core. In fact, I felt proud to be associated with such willingness of the players to play rugby - the spirit was contagious. The U 19's made use of 139 players this season and managed to field six U 19 rugby teams on a derby day with Bishops. This must be some kind of a record.

Results do not always reflect success or failure. The results of the U16A do not tell the full story of the team. This is a team with a lot of potential and who are willing to work hard. Improvement, both on a personal level and as a team, was clearly visible. Chris Raubach and Lyall ]ohnson always had the full co-operation of the team and I, as coach, could always rely on the team for their support. The downfall of the side was their inability to concentrate for the entire game and this is clearly reflected in the results. The U 16 league is a competitive one and the sides are evenly matched, therefore one mistake is often the difference between winning or losing.

The 1992 rugby season tarted off with a rugby clinic at Craduck High School. {ichael du PIe si~ howed the players finer points of bacldine play, whereas André Markgraaff coached the forwards in line-out play, serumrning etc. I think that thi clinic wa of great benefit to the players. The team al 0 played three matches against Volkskool High, Hangklip High and elbourne. Our first match at home against Houentots Holland High, the leam played fifteen-man rugby, and they were awarded with a great victory of -8-0. Here the forwards and backline player combined very well, scoring excellent ties. Who will forget Craig White's (WO tries from broken play. Good victories against D F Malan and Dro tdy followed. Against Paarl Gym the team played very well, but wrong deci ion at crucial time cost us the game. Here the pack of forwards played very well, and O\'er hadowed Paarl Gym completely. Jason du Preez, playing in his first match this season becau e of a leg injury, led the pack of forwards very well. With a little more applieati n from the team game against Bishop Rondebo ch and Paarl Boys' High could have been won. Player who caught the eyc thi cason were Craig \X'hite, Christopher Bai ter, Michael Grendon, Ja on du Preez, haun McEvoy, Marcus Roodman and Brendon Arkwright. Brendon rkwright wa undoubtedly the mo t imprO\'ed player. He played during the entire first half of the ea on in the C Team and was then promoted LO the A ide, where he excelled as a player. A major hortcoming of this team was nor playing fifteen-man rugby at all times. My advice is: forward combine with the ba k-line player, and have faith in each other. The learn will do very well next year if they believe in them elve . \X'e ended the sea on off with an UI5 7-A-Side tournament. Rondebo ch beal W'BH U 15A convincingly in the final. Thank you to all players, supponer and referees for making it a memorable day. Thank you to ~lr de Klerk, for accompanying the team to radock; Mr Huefnagels and his U15B tean); MT Nienaber and Mr McTavish, for their time and a i tance in the U 15 divi ion.

Another exciting rugby season has come and gone and the mixed fortune of the B Team was indicative of the number of players used in our thirteen matche . Our ingular aim during the season wa undoubtedly fifteen-man running rugby. Handling errors at critical stages during game again t Paarl Boys' High and Paarl Gym and J G Meiring led lO our downfall, but we also registered fine wins against Bi hops SAC and Rondebosch. The first game against Rondebosch was arguably our best performance of the season and will remain the highlight for me, a we played superbly to win 12-0. I should like to thank all the player for being so re ponsive and enthusia tic during practices and matche , and all the parents for their loyal suppon throughout the season. L.H.

They played very wcll against Drostdy ( coring 42 point) and against a strong Bellville B- ide ( coring 8 tries to nonc). In thi game they showed their true potential. Thi team had the potential to be a very good side, but lacked the commitment on a few occasions. Antonio Bruni, Ri hard Schroeder, Ulrik trandvik, Mark Ryan and Manhew 1cKellar al\\'ays played well and were the talwarts of d1e idc, while Andrew Wc t ort and j\lark Alexander are vcry talented rugby player who should play 111 higher teams regularly in future.
