Welcome Schools are called to be many things.

We are of course challenged to inspire those in our care to ensure they do as well as they can academically. The summary of the 2012 Year 12 results pleasingly confirms Trinity is meeting the academic needs of so many students. The excellent results are a testament to the skill of the staff, the support from parents and the work ethic of the students.

We are also challenged to ensure when students leave us, they are community orientated and possess values and skills that can make a genuinely positive contribution to society. This edition of Trinity Times has a host of articles relating to students who have identified particular needs in the local, national and international community and gone out and done something significant to address those needs. The Trinity team of twelve students and four staff who toured Cambodia in the holidays have been on a wonderful educational journey.

Their commitment to making a difference

So many students are hardworking, honest, community orientated and readily display servant leadership qualities. is exemplary and their personal growth has been significant. A number of other Trinity students have volunteered their time generously to make a positive community contribution closer to home. I have great respect and confidence in the youth of today.

For the first time in my life I could fully comprehend what helplessness meant.

Trinity2Cambodia After a year of planning, fundraising and preparation twelve students and four teachers (or three teachers and a Chaplain) departed for Cambodia on January 11 for fourteen days. This being the first overseas mission trip by Trinity College our heads and hearts were filled with much anticipation.

The team was involved in a variety of experiences and activities while in Cambodia including a visit to a typical rural school in Preah Vihear Province where they delivered desperately needed school uniforms and reading books. “It was the most amazing feeling to present these children with the simplest gifts and to see how happy they became; just spending time with these children was an eye opener, but it also melted our hearts.” said Year 10 student, Georgia Beer.

The team also visited a boarding hostel for girls called Plas Prai where they donated twelve laptop computers. The hostel provides a place to stay, food, clothing and school uniforms. Year 10 student Beth Evans said “These girls not only became our friends, but also taught us that happiness isn’t just about materialistic things. The experience opened our eyes to the importance of relationships with the people around us.”

The team also spent time in Pailin Province where they worked with the 2H Organisation on farms, harvesting and chipping potatoes and helping to finish a sanitation system for which team members had raised over $13,000 prior to their departure.

Participants reported that one of the most challenging aspects of their journey was learning about the tragedy that struck Cambodia 36 years ago when the Khmer Rouge came to power. During this period many people were left homeless, unemployed and with little or no family.

Participants said the overall experience was humbling, confronting and eye opening, but also incredibly enriching.

One of the greatest challenges on the trip was being confronted by the poverty in the communities we visited. The following is a reflection from Catalina.

and beggers, there he stood; the man with the pink cap. As we got closer and he became clearer, I realised this man had no left arm.

Surprisingly though that is not what made him stick out from the rest. It was the painful, pleading, desperate look in his eyes that struck a chord deep inside of my soul. We had already been told collectively that we were not allowed to give our money to beggars because of the unwanted attention it would bring, and because of the fact that at times the money we gave to these people would end up in the pockets of other people they were working for, but the logic of these reasonings flew straight out the window as soon as I looked at his face and into his eyes.

emotionally draining. Seeing the torture chambers and the photos of the little kids on the walls was just indescribable but at the same time I knew deep down in my heart that there was nothing I could do to help them. Everything was already done, set in stone, history. A horrendous history, yes. An unforgettable history, yes. But ultimately an unchangeable history. Unlike the man with the pink cap who I could still make a difference for, even one as small as a $10 note. I could still help, offer some hope and yet I knew I had to obey the rules and advice set out and given. So it was here that I fought a war between my morals and logic that resulted in a limbo where neither won, Yet one by one the group members purchased instead for the first time in my life I could fully their goods without faltering away from the comprehend what helplessness meant as I quietly logical rules given.

A grant secured from the Federal Government supports two former Trinity students to work as Youth Chaplains this year. Jordan Gauci and Tim Littleford (2011) are based at Blakeview one day a week and are mentored by the College Chaplains. In 2012, while volunteering alongside the Chaplain at South and Christian Liaison Officer at Blakeview, they each completed a Certificate IV: Jordan in schools ministry and Tim in youth ministry.

Both are undertaking further study in Christian theology and ministry.

As Youth Chaplains they visit pastoral care groups and RAVE classes (Religion and Values Education), arrange guest speakers for assemblies, help prepare and speak at Eucharists, lead Bible studies and plan and initiate service and fundraising activities including supporting the Cambodia Mission.

The Youth Chaplains have initiated a Thursday lunchtime social sports schedule and ‘chat time’, as a way to engage students to feel comfortable in asking the tricky questions about religion, concerns they might have or just seeking guidance. Tim and Jordan play basketball or cricket with students during their lunch hour. From these activities they have commenced ‘chat time’ where students can share their thoughts and questions.

Their work and fresh approaches will both support students as they explore the Christian faith and strengthen the pastoral care programme at Trinity.

It was an exciting day where we had an opportunity to spend time and get to know people from the SCOSA Willaston hub.

Gawler River Service The Gawler River Middle School completed the 2012 year with two successful fundraising campaigns. The first project initiated by Hillier House was for the Little Heroes Foundation. After contemplating the idea of a modified version of Relay for Life, it was decided that this would be called the Hillier Humility Walk.

Clipsal 500 to Trinity How does a racing V8 ute help students with Life Choices? Fresh from his overall second placing at this year’s Clipsal weekend, Jesus Racing’s Andrew ‘Fishtail’ Fisher brought a fast paced, interactive programme designed to challenge young people to think through the consequences of their decisions. As a racing car driver, successful businessman and happily married family man, Andrew had lots to say about life. His action packed, multi-media presentation included a replica of his race car, which Andrew happily roared to life, sending V8 vibrations throughout the school.

Walking with humility is an act that can be distinguished by the purpose of that walk.

The purpose of the walk is to serve as a fundraiser to make life easier for any young person in a position of need and support. Students were able to participate in teams of eight to ten. They could devise a team name, a team theme and create a team baton that would be the measure of the number of laps around the 400m running track in 3 ½ hours.

The primary goal was to accrue as much team sponsorship from monetary donations.

All donations go to the Little Heroes Foundation and support children surviving cancer and serious illness. Across all ten teams the batons covered over 350 laps, and raised over $5,000.00 Students participated in an awareness programme which aims to educate the South Australian community about inclusive behaviour and acceptance of people living with a disability. It was an interactive and engaging presentation to raise disability awareness.

The Middle School held a BBQ to raise money to help the Spastic Centre of South Australia (SCOSA) in support of programmes and activities organised to promote the potential of people with disabilities through individual choice, community inclusion and meaningful participation. It was an exciting day where we had an opportunity to spend time and get to know people from the SCOSA Willaston hub. We were able to raise $500 for SCOSA due to the contributions made by all the students and staff in the Middle School.

Andrew and his wife Annie have a daughter (Lily) who was born with half a heart (Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome). They were told by medical experts that the most humane thing they could do was to let their child die……Andrew and Annie chose to go against the doctor’s advice and decided to give their daughter a chance at life.

Andrew explains the “Lily Story” and the decisions that he and Annie had to make as part of his presentation. This story was incredibly powerful and created an extraordinary level of connection with the students. Andrew went on to challenge the students about making courageous decisions and the consequences of some of life’s important choices.

Students are asked to consider how war affects people on an individual, as well as a local and global basis.

The packages will be sent to the 7RAR Task Group, based at RAAF Base Edinburgh, who deployed to Afghanistan in November 2012 on an eight month deployment.

The students have been working in collaboration with English teachers, Merridi Hickman and Damon Wilson.

Students participating in the activity have been working in groups to produce their letters. In addition, students are asked to select one item from a suggested list of

The students are hoping to receive a written response from the soldiers, and later on in the school year will extend an invitation to them to attend the school for a class discussion and personally to thank them for their participation.

One excerpt from a letter reads:

“Our names are Maddy, Brock, Alexander and Cedrick and we are interested in learning about your life and role as an explosives searcher. We were interested in how an explosives searcher is responsible for detecting buried explosives before soldiers can travel through by foot or vehicle”. ……..”Australia is thankful for what you and your fellow colleagues do for us. We thank you for reading our letter. We hope you enjoy responding back to our questions like we enjoyed asking them to you.”

Gawler to Kathmandu Sixteen children were at risk of being evicted from the Nifon Orphanage in Nepal for the sake of $70AUD a month in rent.

Alexander Law-Smith and Owain Millikan (Year 6) heard this story through a mutual friend who established a charity called “Inspire the World”. The boys decided to make a film about the orphanage to draw attention to their plight. They spent twenty-one days in Nepal witnessing the extreme poverty and the number of children working, as opposed to attending school, to survive.

You can view more information about the project, see pictures and videos of the boys’ trip and learn how the Orphanage was saved from closure on the “Inspire The World” facebook page or go to www.inspiretheworld.com.au . This is a wonderful story of how two eleven year olds had the courage to take the initiative to make a difference.

Creative Corridors Every Monday after school the Trinity College Senior corridors are filled with Junior and Middle School students, Years 3 to 10, who come to use the specialist equipment and be mentored by staff as part of the Targeting Talents programme.

We are all familiar with the successful Robotics teams which originate from within this co-curricular activity, but Targeting Talents provides opportunities to work in other creative mediums as well. Students participate in a range of activities including problem solving, science, maths and literacy. The activities are all based around developing critical and creative thinking skills and of course, fun!

Fast Performers Reception students at North had only been at school twenty-five days when their teacher asked them to perform a Readers Theatre. This entailed students memorising lines in rhyming verse from the story “The Grumpy Bear”, and working in groups to bring this book to life for their audience. They had to make headdresses, learn hand actions and tell the story in perfect timing, with the help of their class mates. They recorded their performance and watched it on the whiteboard as an audience. Given the wonderful reaction from guests these young readers are keen to investigate more books and produce more Readers Theatre performances.

After attending the National Youth Science Forum (NYSF) during January, Year 12 students Catisha Coburn and Lachlan Arthur have both been asked to represent Australia at one of two International Youth Science forums. Caitsha is one of six students to represent Australia against 300 Canadians in Alberta during May and Lachlan is one of seventy-five students to attend the International Forum in Boston during July. The NYSF is the only programme in Australia that offers students the chance to test-drive a wide range of universities and careers in the sciences. The NYSF consists of a mix of scientific, formal, personal development and social activities ranging from laboratory visits to sports evenings, a bush dance to group dynamics.

Both students undertook a strenuous application process for the International Science Forums and we wish them well as they travel internationally.

International Women’s Day This annual event was hosted at the Gawler and Barossa Jockey Club with over 300 attendees and included a debate by students from Gawler and District College, Xavier College and Trinity College. Funds raised from the day assist the Step-Up Award which provides three local students with $400 each towards their academic goals. The debate topic was “What a woman wears, affects the way she is treated”. Two students from each school joined together to debate the topic in the affirmative and negative, with some excellent points raised by both teams. There is not a winner declared in these debates, but rather a thought-provoking series of ideas are presented to the audience.

Old Scholar, Emily Smith (2009) also made a special appearance as part of the entertainment for the day and delicious scones were made by our Hospitality students for the afternoon tea.

Heartfelt Music Senior students performed a wonderful night of music to over 100 guests to raise funds for the Heart Foundation.

As part of their assessment process in Term 1, students decided to make their performance piece a fundraising activity. With cupcakes, cookies and other delicious foods for sale the Senior students raised $1,307.00 for the Heart Foundation. A variety of ensemble groups performed as well as solo artists, with music from Beethoven, Rihanna, Metallica, Adele and a Schubert opera piece. The crowd were thrilled with the students’ selections.

Illustrator, Simon Scales, has enlightened Senior Students about technology tools of today enabling him a diverse artistic career. Although Simon is a traditionally trained illustrator, he has forged a career in visual effects, digital painting, entertainment design, video game designer, 3D modelling, art direction and graphic design. His words of wisdom included how a formal Arts degree was necessary to refine his skills to open doors in the film and animation industry. His favourite animation figures all started out as a drawing on paper and required constant practice to perfect his art. As a highly sought after professional screen artist Simon was able to show leading-edge methodology to our students.

During Term 2 with support from Carclew Youth Arts, Fran Callen, a visual artist, will hold classes every Friday in ‘The Space’ gallery for students in Years 9 to 12. The aim is for students to submit work for the 2013 SALA exhibition “Figures in Space”.

This South Australian Living Artists (SALA) exhibition will consist of work from students, staff, invited guests and the artists-in-residence. The exhibition lasts for one month and is open to the public. Proceeds from the sale of art work will be donated to the ‘Wall of Hands’ organisation that promotes literacy for indigenous children.

Congratulations to Nathan Stafford (Year 4) who performed a lead role as part of the Adelaide Youth Theatre production, “Seussical” in January 2013. Nathan along with Kate Neville (Year 5) has been selected in the ensemble for the upcoming Adelaide Festival Theatre production of “Chitty Chitty Bang Bang”, starring David Hobson, Rachael Beck, Alan Brough, Peter Carroll and George Kapiniaris. We wish them luck as part of the rotating chorus who will perform eight shows a week for a month.

The Trinity College Senior Concert Band won every section they competed in at the National Band Championships in Perth over the Easter weekend. Competing in the C Grade section, the College band went head to head with some of the best adult and student bands in the country. The overall performance was highly praised by the adjudicating judges. The commitment of all band members was exemplary and conductor, Bruce Raymond received numerous positive comments from audience members after the performance. A number of the students have a very bright future in the performance world. In preparation for this event, the Senior Concert Band presented a farewell concert in the College Chapel on Wednesday 20 March where they performed all of their contest pieces. The evening was thoroughly entertaining and showcased our students at their best. Young UK Trombone virtuoso, Peter Moore also presented a solo segment where he displayed his dazzling skills and beautiful tone on the trombone. Adelaide Symphony Orchestra’s Principal Eb Clarinet player, Darren Skelton also gave an outstanding solo clarinet recital which was inspiring to say the least. The College is very proud of the students, staff, guests, parents and Old Scholars who contributed to this fine achievement.

By inspiring the cast to work hard she was able to choreograph two major chorus numbers. Not only was this an incredible and very educational opportunity for the cast, but by the second night of the camp both numbers had been successfully choreographed, learnt and then performed for the parents the next morning. Overall, the Musical Camp was a huge success for all and provided a great experience.

To have a mountain with a big snow base, recent snow dumps and challenging terrain is great.

Snow Skiing in our Summer While most Trinity students sweltered in the hot January sun, nine others boarded a plane for a winter wonderland.

Years 10 and 11 students were offered an opportunity to venture to Canada and the USA during their summer break.

The aim to spend time in Canada’s world renowned powder, experience North America’s culture and, of course, go to Disneyland!

The group consisted of our nine students, plus students from Karratha, WA, the Gold Coast, Armidale and the Central Coast of NSW. Forty-six students in total and six staff. On arrival in the USA we had a long journey to Apex Ski Resort in the heart of the Okanagan region of British Columbia.

The area is famous for its light fluffy powder snow of which we had over 2m as our base.

The next five days were full of learning and developing our snow skills. Some were first timers and learnt the art on a perfect playground. No lift lines, wide open runs and excellent instructors. For those who had the basics already, their time was bliss.

To have a mountain with a big snow base, recent snow dumps and challenging terrain is great, plus no one else around, well, that is dreamlike. The instructors helped hone skills and all would agree that they are better skiers and snow boarders from the experience. We also had the chance to go ice skating on an outdoor rink and tubing down a massive snow bank, all in minus degree temperatures.

The jeans and jackets were soon packed away as we landed in a perfect Southern Californian day of twenty-two degrees (in the middle of winter!). No trip to Los Angeles is complete without a day at Universal Studios and two days at the happiest place on earth...Disneyland. With white knuckle rides, famous characters and enough sugar to sink a ship, everyone becomes young again and can’t help but smile! Our accommodation was a short five minute walk to Disneyland so we got there early and stayed late to experience all the joy it brings. Fond memories and a great end to a magic holiday break.

Students have once again been involved in every aspect of wine production from pruning the vines through to hand harvesting.

Swim Safety Song As part of the ongoing transition from Preschool to School, the Montessori children visit many parts of the College including the Library, Ag Centre, Chapel and playgrounds. In Term 1, with the warm weather, they have been discussing water safety. The Preschool children went over to STARplex to visit Sammy STARfish.

They were very excited to practise what they had been learning about – the ‘5 rules of water safety’.

1. Fence the pool 2. Shut the gate 3. Teach your kids to swim – it’s great 4. Supervise – watch your mate 5. Learn how to resuscitate

Sammy taught the children all about safety in the water. They danced, sang songs, went on an adventure, tried on life jackets and even got a hug from Sammy at the end.

Navigating a Career Pathway

2013 Vintage Commences

A career pathway is the unique route an individual can choose from the many routes available to reach a career goal. It can involve completing formal and informal learning, developing skills, experiencing education, training, community and personal life. Year 10 North students recently attended an information session presented by the University of South Australia (UniSA) to educate and inform them as to how they might navigate their own career pathway.

The 2013 vintage is well and truly underway at Trinity College. With grape yields down after a very dry spring, our wine output will be reduced this year with 600L of Chardonnay, 600L of Rosé and 1200L of Shiraz wine. However, with low grape yields comes exceptional wine quality and 2013 is no exception.

Presenter, Mandy Giles spoke to students about the numerous avenues and opportunities now available, as well as her own experience involving a mix of formal education and on the job training that led to her current role.

L-R: Brandon Brooks (Building and Construction), Jaryd Gurney (Metal Engineering), Stephanie Hickey (Make-up), Keegan French (Building and Construction) and John Lavia (Building and Construction).

Your Name in Lights The Foundation finished 2012 in a celebratory fashion, with a thank you event for all donors and the unveiling of our permanent Donor Board. Some of the donors on this Board have given a donation to the Foundation every year since its inception in 1995, that is eighteen years ago.

Others have given their first generous donation in the last six months. The Foundation’s motto: “From Little Things…..Big Things Grow……” is why this permanent Donor Board has been created. All donations, no matter how small, make a difference. The Donor Board represents over $500,000.00 in fundraising activities and has created many opportunities for Trinity students.

To further acknowledge our generous supporters you will see donors wearing badges recognising their level of giving. It is never too late to give to the Foundation and as tax time approaches we ask you to consider one of our three tax deductible funds:

ABOVE

Acknowledged as an Ambassador, Mr Geoff Gordon receives his Ambassador badge from Head of the College, Mr Nick Hately.

The Library Fund – permitting us to buy resources for all our libraries.

The Scholarships Fund – providing a range of scholarships to students in Year 10+ and all ages for the Special Purpose scholarships.

The Building Fund – to assist with projects such as sun shade cloths and the Blackham facility.

Each year at our Annual Thank You event we will unveil more donor names and present badges to donors who have achieved membership at Fellow level or higher. Becoming a Fellow requires a donation of $20 per week for one year totalling $1,000.00. Please contact the Foundation Office on 8523 8726 to arrange a monthly donation.

Our last fundraiser in 2012 was the Annual Tennis Day, which was once again well attended and continues to strengthen as an affordable way to support the Foundation. We thank Mrs Vanessa Sharrad and the Gawler River catering students for a tasty Greek feast and the small business operators for great raffle prizes. First time tennis player Jodie Brind won the trophy with Jane Sanders.

The permanent Foundation Donor Board located in the Common was unveiled late in 2012.

The Foundation Board were delighted to attend all 2012 Speech Day Ceremonies and proud to present Merit and Achievement prizes. We were also pleased to contribute $1,000 towards the Cambodia Mission trip. The Board is extremely proud of the students who represented Trinity College in such a compassionate manner internationally.

Our major fundraiser each year is the Foundation Dinner. Tickets are now on sale for the Great Foundation Wall Dinner, a Chinese theme, on Saturday 3 August 2013 at the National Wine Centre. There are great bargains to be found in the silent auction room and I encourage you to book a table with ten of your friends so you do not miss out. I look forward to enjoying your company at this terrific event.

It’s great when a plan comes together!

And this is exactly what is happening for STARplex Swim Club as they look ahead to the remainder of 2013 and beyond. And they have a lot to look forward to - the imminent arrival of an additional swim Coach and building on last year’s successes.

The Club was formed in 2000 with the aim of taking swimmers to the highest level as well as providing an environment which encourages swimmers of all levels to continue their participation in the sport.

Over 63% of the current Club’s swimmers are Trinity students or attended Trinity and many of them have come up through the STARplex Swim School program.

The path to success is never a straight line, but the last 12 months have seen the Club and its swimmers work hard and achieve outstanding results.

Ynez Grimes, Club President commented “STARplex Swim Club, STARplex Swim Centre Management and Coaches have developed a strong working relationship, and as a result, we have seen our Club membership grow by 34% in the last six months which bodes well for the future. Our Club is fundamentally about our swimmers.

Their achievements and results over the last year have been outstanding.”

The appointment of Craig Stewart, as Coach within the STARsquad program brings another dimension to the Club.

Craig has a great deal of experience with all levels of squads including working closely with the NZ High Performance coaches and swimmers. In his own right he was a competitive swimmer at a National Open level in the past, he also represented NZ as a triathlete in the World Age Group Championships.

Kelly Lange, Swim Centre Manager explains “Craig will work between the Swim School and Swim Club. The focus will be to identify individuals with talent and potential from within the Swim School and work with them to develop their skills to progress to Squad level. We want to encourage and spark interest in swimming as a sport.”

Steve Garner, High Performance Coach added “The plan is to have the swimmers become aware of their potential and the relationship between their psyche and the physical activity of skill building. Ultimately, the aim is to have the swimmers take responsibility for their own training and progress with an understanding that the imagination starts the process, and the skill building completes it.”

“With the addition of Craig Stewart to the coaching team we look forward to not only having a strong National Squad, but also a State Squad that will produce National swimmers of the future,” added Ynez.

The future looks bright.

Football Season Underway Trinity Old Scholars Football Club has commenced its 8th season in the SAAFL and after making the Grand Final last year enters the unknown of Division 5, our second division climb since establishment.

We will again be fielding three sides in 2013 and very proud to say our coaching panel has remained the same as 2012 with Scott Mathews, Kym Hillard and Ben Johnson heading up the A’s, B’s and C’s respectively.

Unfortunately we have lost our Div 6 Association Medallist, Jamie Forwood to Div 1 team, Gaza and a few others to travelling, work or injury. However, the huge positive for TOSFC this pre-season has been the number of Class of 2012 students choosing to carry on with their footy at the Old Scholars. We’ve had at least a dozen students come through which has been our best recruitment year.

The likes of Liam Nottle and Daniel Elvin have really made the experienced players feel old over the pre-season as they dominate time trials, along with showing some real skill.

Although Round 1 will soon be upon us, TOSFC is always looking for new players, sponsors, trainers, boundary umpires and team mangers to help lighten the load.

We are especially looking for someone to head up the canteen at home games in 2013. Please do not hesitate to make contact if you are slightly interested in any of the previously mentioned roles.

We pride ourselves on club culture and guarantee that anybody that gets involved will quickly fall in love with the club. The club would finally like to thank Trinity College, key sponsors such as Gunn Group, Zorich Group, Bedshed, Transliquid, Fasta Pasta Gawler along with all the supporters and volunteers for their continued support. Without such support our club would simply not exist.

We look forward your support!!!

Shield Winners Again The Trinity Old Scholars Cricket Club has had an extremely eventful and successful year in the Adelaide Turf Cricket Association. This year, the A grade was promoted again finishing top of the ladder in the A4 grade, taking us up four divisions in just four years. The B grade, in their first year in the two-day competition has finished second on the ladder which is a fantastic achievement, however, unfortunately they lost the semi-final in the C3 competition by 53 runs, chasing 224 runs for the win.

This season has been a record breaking year with statistics. We have seen a total of seven different players making centuries, as well as five different players taking 5WI hauls, and some fantastic record breaking partnership stands.

However the most notable was the hat-trick from Brodie Fraser in the A4 grade on Waldeck Oval vs Brighton on February 23 2013. It was a fantastic achievement, especially on ‘Pink Stumps Day’ when the Trinity Old Scholars Cricket Club managed to raise over $500 for the McGrath Foundation.

The A grade this year won their 4th consecutive premiership beating Penfield Districts by over 100 runs. Trinity Old Scholars won the toss and batted first on what looked to be a damp wicket, however Eythan Barraclough and Tom Krieg had a positive opening partnership of 56 runs which eliminated any pre-game nerves.

Tom Krieg went on to score a match winning 75 runs and was extremely well supported by Matthew Sandery with 63 runs. With a late cameo from Alex Cotter (32 runs), Trinity posted 7/246.

The bowling was superb, claiming early wickets thanks to Brodie Fraser and Matthew Sandery. Brad Cameron was also a handy contributor finishing with figures of 3/40. The star of the bowlers was once again Brodie Fraser who finished with figures of 2/12 off 10 overs. Trinity kept the pressure on Penfield and bowled them out for 138 runs. It was a superb way to end the season for the A grade, finishing undefeated for the year.

As always, we welcome any new players be they Old Scholars or not, to come join our club. Pre-season training will start during August in The Big Shed (indoor facility) at North School and we urge anyone interested to contact me.
