PRINCIPAL'S REPORT CATHOLIC LADIES' COLLEGE 1896,1986 In 1896 at East Melbourne, Victoria, the Sisters of C h arity set up a seconda ry school fo r girls called St. Patrick's High School. Six years after it was fo unded the school was relocated opposite S t. Patrick's Cathedral in what was then known as G rey S treet, and it became know from th at time as Catholic Ladies' Co llege. T oday , the same school carries on the tradi t ion and the philosophy of a Ca tholic education offered to girls which commenced at East Melbourne ninety years ago. The year 1986 is a particularl y significant one in the histo ry of C. L. C. as it marks a very important transition. For the first time since its fo unda tion C. L. C. will h ave a Lay Principal nex t year. The school will still be conducted by the Sisters of C harity and we see th is as a new and positive stage in the growth of the C hurch. W e are confident that under the guidance of Miss Patricia Ryan the Co llege will continue to meet the ch allenges thrown down by a rapidly ch anging and increasingly secular society. The next few years will see marked ch anges and new de velopments in educa tion th roughout Victoria as the Victo rian Certificate of Education replaces the existing system. Amid the rapid ch anges taking place in education wi th the impe lementat ion of the Blackburn Report, the Sisters of C hari ty and staff at C. L C. hold firml y to the bel ief th at it is only when the spiritual growth of yound people is nourished in schools th at the whole person can deve lop. Let us pray that together the studen ts, their parents and the staff at C. L. C. can face those challenges with great hope and fa ith .

CONNIE CASEY In late December 1985 , Connie Henham Casey passed away following a lo ng illness. Mrs. Casey began teaching speech and dra ma at C LC when the'school was first established in Eltham, some years ago. Over the period of time that Connie was with the school, she quickly became a highly respected and well loved teacher, who was able to touch the lives of all who knew her. The driving fo rce in Connie Casey's life was a dedication to both teaching and the girls whom she taught. She was never happier than when working with and helping the girls, and she was a woman - truly gifted when it came to bringing the best qualities and potential out of those she worked with. Anyone who attended C LC during the years in which Connie Casey taught there would be we ll aware of her achievement s within the school. Among these, and there were many, are the numerous plays she produced, the initi ation and establishmen t of Drama and Theatre Arts as a HSC subj ect and the recognition she brought the school through student victories in drama festivals and public speaking competitions. Perhaps the best way to descri be Connie Casey is through her own unique approach to teaching. When teaching students, Connies' aims were to give those people the skills by which they could make the most of their li ves. She set out to ass ist students to develop themsel ves to the very best of their ability ; she also set out to give others perhaps the most complex of skills, communication'. Connie Casey R. l. P.
THE LEGION OF MARY Altho ugh most people know that a small group of students attend the Legion of Mary every Tuesday lunchtime, very few actuall y know what we do. At our weekl y meetings we say several prayers, including the Rosary but we aren 't just a prayer group . Discussions are held every week on a variety of themes ranging from poverty, to nuclear war, to drugs, as well as mo re conventiona l re ligio us top ics. The other aspect of the Legion is our work in the community and school. W e visit Judge Book, clean the sickbay and ensure the chapel is used. W e are looking toward ex tending o ur area of work next year. This year was a sad one fo r the Legion of Mary as o ne of our first works was organising a Mass fo r Mrs Connie Casey, our President of fo ur years. Her guidance is sorel y missed. Since second term Mrs Renwick and Mrs Roadley have attended our meetings, giving us support. W e hope next year many students with new ideas will jo in , and that our group can continue to grow.
RELIGIOUS EDUCA TION RERETREA T A weekend away with students from Whitefriars College - who could say no? I certainly didn't and looked forward to the event with feelings of great anticipation. There were 14 of us going and who knows how many boys? Then the blow came. The very day before we were due to leave, our teachers informed us that, "due to a lack of interest, the boys aren't going". Most of us were known to have blacked out at this horrific moment and in the end, one girl, who wishes to remain anonymous (could it have been Clare O'Brien?) even backed out of the weekend altogether. Obviously religion was not her prime concern. But despite all the setbacks, we all cheerfully made our way to the meeting place at Mrs Nicholas' home on Friday night. After an hours delay we finally had our wardrobes packed in the bus. There were so many cases that we could hardly fit in ourselves. We got to Millgrove at around 8.00pm we got our bunks allocated and had a "session" before we went to bed. Most of us were so tired from a hard week at school that we got to sleep early (2.00am) and much to our delight, the next morning Sr Pat woke us at 8.00am. We had various sessions that morning and a lovely BBQ lunch. After all food had been digested for an hour or two, some of us went for a scenic treck around the mountains. We came across some very muddy swamps, hills with an incline of 83° and obscene men. It was a very eventful walk . Dinner was next on the agenda which was carried out rather uproariously due to the presence of a rather rowdy young man, Father Shane O'Connor from Whitefriars. He apologised profusely for the absence of the boys and by this time we didn't really care whether they were there or not. We had a mass after dinner and I think for many of us it was the most moving, impressive part of the whole week-end. Video's followed the spiritual uplifting most of us received and after that an extremely crazy night. Our room had a "session" of our own and we all told deep, dark secrets that had most of us in fits of laughter. Food was passed (and thrown) around the room and I don't think any of us had eaten so much in our entire lives. Someone even gave the room next to us some of our yogurt and they reciprocated with peanut butter that "went down" very nicely. But that's what retreat is all about-sharing . We certainly gave it to them, and vise-versa. Finally the last of us dropped off to sleep about 4.30am and were once again awoken by the infamous Sr Pat at 8.30am. We then had a few more "sessions" before we went to clean up the pig-sty that had been our salvation for the previous two days. Finally, for the last time, we crammed our belongings into the bus and cars and made our way home . On the whole it was an extremely enjoyable weekend and we'd like to thank Sr Pat and Mrs Nichols who put a lot of effort into the organisation of it. Denise Boeyen Year 11
S.R.C. The very charming and enthusiasti c 1986 SRC is achieving quietly but surely. Being a member of SRC invo lves more than just presenting our bodies at a meeting once a week (even that can be hard at times), eating our "munchies " and discussing varius matters. The SRC invo lves work and student participation and that is exactly what the 1986 SRC has done. The year began with a burst of activity and enthusiasm . The two long awaited drink machines were installed early this year. The drink machines have been a great success, quenching the thirst of hard working students. Some students have been so excited abou t the drink machines that they have been using them between classes (naughty, naughty) . The first te rm slipped by with a few no ticeable achieveme nts, such as blue, gold or white hair ribbons and St. Patricks Day celebration s. Many things were underway such as the bikestand, chairs and table for the B. B. Q. area, taps on the ova l and basket ball courts, and windows for the P.E. changeroom . Many of these are now completed and the others no t far away. Second term has been just as successful with a fine effort in the 40 Hour Famine, the annual talent quest, a hot dog day, a very successful little campaign and the winning entries from the mural competitio n are soon to ado rn the walls of the P. E. changeroom s. Third term is still to come and the SRC is sure to continue it's hard work and enthusiasm . It has been a pleasure to work with such a great group and I would like to thank all the stude nt reps and Miss Harcourt for all their help and work this year. Gabri elle C urran SRC President
Dear Bron, I don't kn ow if this is what you wanted, but this is what you got! Sorry it's late, but when you're the Principal's niece yo u're supposed to have th ese privileges!

It's Thursday recess and Gaye puts a notice in the bulletin say ing that there is going to be a meeting in room 15 at lunch-time - be prompt! W e all arrive and a year level has a lready been elected to bring food yummy food. Early in the year we learnt each o thers names, so now we sit down and get on with the serious business, and ea t. Gaye starts throwing po ints at us, we either object or agree. Gabrie lle Curran is our SRC President - poor girl, the things she has to put up with continually goi ng up to Mr. Jamieson and continually getting "No". Sometimes he might be in a good mood and say yes to something or give a good suggestion . Overall though Gaye says he's funny and a kind man. Now to S ister Pat, it's quite sad that she's leaving, she's been good to us over the yea rs. I don't' think Gaye has to go to S ister Pat much and when she does she's nearly a lways nice about things anyway. O ur Vice President is Belinda W ard , She helps Gaye a lot and is a lways willing to help eveyone e lse. Mi ss Harcourt , "Bo nn y" is our SRC teacher represe ntative. She's rea ll y good and ta kes our suggestions from both a teacher and student point of view. I rea ll y ca n't think of any disadvantag es of the SRC, on ly adva ntages. We get to know everyt hing and a lso ge t to participate in a ll eve nts, it's rea lly great. I've never been bored with it , there's always so mething go ing on. Ou r meetings are full of fun and we all st ick together when things are to be do ne. Katie Mulvenna Year 10

NOTICE BOARD After careful planning and putting together the SRC notice board was fin ally finished. On the board there are notices about all the latest events that happen in the school, what the SRC has achieved , and ideas fo r the future.
LITTER WEEK Litter Week was from the 14th to 18th of July. In that week the rooms were the tidiest they have been all year. Rooms 11 and 16 were the dirtiest rooms fo r the week and some of the punishments suggested fo r them were to clean all windows around the school, scrub rubbish bins and do yard duty fo r two weeks. The winners were rooms 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 and they rece ived a big bag of lollies as a reward .
TALENT QUEST O n W ednesday 23rd of July our talented , young stars took part in our annual talent quest. It was run by the SRC and was a grea t success of course. This year the year lO's took charge with Justi ne Dalla Ri va and Jackie O 'Rourke comparing the quest, while the other year 10 SRC reps kept the contestants in order and on the move. There was also a surprise fo r the audience, who fo r once were very well behaved. They were treated to jelly babies after the show. The talent quest was a great success with the winners being the "Dance Era" and "Dolly Parton, 9-5". W e hope future talent quests will live up to the one held on July 23rd 1986. Justine Dalla Ri va
STUDENT DAY The famous annual CLC student day is rumoured to be full of madness, disorganization and general insanity. We , however, know this exaggerated and somewhat distorted gossip is untrue. The day aga in ran smoothly and efficiently, and was of great value to all involved. N ormal responsible behaviour is expected and achieved, helping the day succeed . Julie van Bavel Student Principal
ST PATRICKS DAY Green, green, green . That lo vely fresh color graced our school en masse on March 17th. Light green, dark green, fluorescent green , bright green - it was all there, and what a change from our dull brown unifo rms! The St. Patrick's day parade was a great success, thanks to the SRC we had some interesting entrants, including Jake the Peg, Gangrene, and Mouldy Potatoes (lovely!).

DEBUTANTE BALL I think all the 1986 debs would agree with me that the only thing that got us th rough the initial shock and traumas of beginning o ur HSC year, was the prospect of our deb. For years we looked fo rward to the great event, listening enviously to the various HSC's talk of what they were wearing, who they were taking etc ... and now it was our turn . Deb practices were on a Tuesday night, which gave us something to look fo rward to during the monotonous start of the week, and something to talk about during the mental strain of the rest of the week. Finally, the night came and to everyones suprise, we actually looked decent! Our hair was neat, and gone were the unflattering brown , sacklike tunics and big blue jumpers, to be replaced by the most beautiful fi gure-hugging white gowns. W e all beh aved ourse lves extremely well during the function ... smiling our permanentlyplastered smiles to all the fl ashing cameras and danci ng with everyone from our little brothers to our great gra ndfathers. The party afterwards was ours to enjoy, and we all let our hair down (some more than others). W e went all night and then some very tired and disheve lled looking people arri ved at the Pancake Parlour the next morning. During that night one thing was con cluded; blondes don't have more fun, red heads do ! Marianne T ome Year 12
EXCHANGE STUDENTS When I decided to apply to be an exch ange student , my reasons were that I had heard abo ut Australia from other exch ange stude nts and I wanted to know more about the country and its people. I met man y fa ntas tic and wo nderful people, I've seen so man y fa ntastic places and I have experienced so man y new and exc iting things during my year here in Australia. It h as been more than I ever expected. I must say I was lucky to come to such a grea t school as C LC, where I a lways fel t wel come and despite the differences from my own schoo l at ho me there was never a problem fitting in. Right from the start C LC took good care of me with two girls, Katrina Benton and Nicole Bates , showing me arou nd the schoo l, and the helpfuln ess and care has con tinued right th ro ughout the years. During my stay here in Australia, with the Rotary C lub ofTemplestowe, I have had six different host-fa milies. Even though there wasn 't much tro uble in mo ving every eight weeks it's nice to have a steady base such as schoo l which I know to be comfo rtable and the same all the time. The Rotary Youth Exchange program gives yo ung people an exce llent chance to meet new people, see how different people li ve in other countries, mature without their bio logical parents and be able to give info rmation about the ir home country. Abo ut 40 young Swedish people have been exchange students in Australi a this year. I soon rea lised that Australia is a very big cou ntry, but I still managed to see a fa ir bit of" Oz-Land" . Canberra, T asmani a, Adel aide, Sydney , Cent ral Austra li a , where I me t with all the other exchange studen ts in the d istrict , and I have also seen other va rio us places in Victoria. All the trips h ave been great and I've rea lly enj oyed all the d ifferent types of land and cities th at can fit .into one country . T o be an exchange student not only means to get experience and lea rn fro m o ther people and places , but also to give a great deal of yourse lf. This is also an importan t and valuable part of what I' ve learnt during thi s year , as well as my now better unde rstanding of the English language. I still can't fully realise how important and great this one yea r has been in my life, but as time goes on I probably will refer back to this yea r fo r a long, long time. This year wo uldn't have been as great if it was n't fo r C LC with Sr Patric ia, the teachers, and students who opened the schoo l and let me jo in . Therefore I'd like to thank Sr Patri cia, all my teachers, espec ia ll y my ho me group teachers Mrs Barra tt and Ms G illespie , and a ll the ladies in the school, espec iall y the HSC group . W ords canno t rea lly express how much I fee l fo r yo u all and the schoo l, but I want to thank yo u fo r making this year something I'll always keep in my heart. Love Marie Sandq vist Rotary You th Exchange 1985 -86

HSCCAMP On W ednesday the 12th of March about 80 HSC students went to Gembrook for the traditio nal camp. W e were all allocated our cabins and proceeded to tum the once tidy cabins into pig stys - helping us feel at home. Soon after, lollies , chips and cakes emerged , the result of which can still be seen on our bodies months later. After a meal and more junk food we settled down fo r a good nights rest. Next morning, after clash ing violently wi th fe llow students and friends over who was to use the total of ten showers next, we consumed our breakfast and got ready fo r the days activities. Bush walking to Powelltown , running the Ga untlet (which returned so me muddy ogres after being dumped in the dam) and bread making (with Mr. C halker!) were a few of the activities we enj oyed . Aspiring actresses and some not so aspiring actresses dressed up to do a perfo rmance of"A Midsummer Nights Dream" . The camp food was deli cious (thanks to students and teachers alike) and I'm h appy to report not o ne of us starved . The mass in the picturesque outdoor chapel was enjoyed despite persistant attempts by some determined mosquitoes to the contrary . Even Sr. Patricia and Mr. Jamieson joined us! After the mass we partook in a delicious roast dinner and then gathered round the campfire fo r a singa long. This extended into the night and was fin a lly bro ken by some very weary teachers who desired to retire . At this stage I'm afraid I returned too , however I have it o n good authori ty that midnight ra ids were made o n cabins, midnight feas ts were pursued and even Disco's occurred, all of which I took no part in . Well at least I looked fresh in the morning! A quick t idy up of camp-0. K. a long tidy up of camp , a quick lunch (this was quick!) of pizza bread , sandwi ches and ice crea m, and then we were on the bus heading home. Special thanks to the teachers who organised the camp , particularl y to Maureen and Morag who made so enjoyable and memorable. Th ankyo u on behalf of '86 HSC Stude nts. Jackie Brown Yea r 12
CENTRAL AUSTRALIA
. UUUNAUAI IA
O n the morning of Saturday 10th May, being at school at 6. 00am was not something to resent. For the nex t ten days thirty-six young ladies fro m HSC and Year 11 , and 4 more "senior ladies" would be travelling and camping in O utback Australia. However this was not the time to put decorum into practice! The bus ride (once we were in N orth W estern Victo ria, off bitumen roads) was a very bumpy one. The scenery of the wonderful Flinders Ranges distracted us from the ro ughness of the ride and the long needed and wanted lavatories! For those who had never been camping before , this was the best first experience. The pyramid shaped tents were nothing but a hassle to set up , but towards the end of the ten days we were experts at putting them up and taking them down in 5 minutes fl at. T o top it off, in pitch black at 5 o'clock in the morning, the last thing you wanted to do was nea tly fo ld a tent, but if yo u wanted breakfast , yo u h ad no other cho ice. Day in and day out we would be on the coach, driving on a road in the middle of a seemingly endless desert. S trangely eno ugh "NO THRO UG H ROAD" and "DETOUR" signs were ad vising the traffi c of what was ahead . After five days of intense dri ving, halluc in ations and dehydration, we ended up at our long awaited destin ation - U luru {Ayers Rock) . The college song was once aga in remembered as , at the highest peak of the roc k 36 exhausted and pro ven unfit girls exerc ised their lung capac ity to the well known tune. With ga le fo rce winds, climbing was very difficult and clinging with all fo urs (so as no t to fa ll off) seemed the onl y safe way to go about conquering the rock. Coming down , however, was much more relax ing and fun. There were many to urist spots other than U luru th at were just magni ficent; the O lgas, Stand ley C hasm , S impson 's Gap, the various gorges as well as N amatjira's twin ghost gums were among these. H orse rac ing may be a we ll lo ved sport of o ur daily lives in the c ity, but camel races beat them fo r excitement by far ! Actu ally riding a camel is something no t to be missed either. The ido l of our trip was the one and onl y T ed Ega n . His songs are original and have significant meanings. For example the songs abo ut the skill drinkers of the No rthern T erritory, and the tragic death of Japanese pearl di vers caused by the bends. The pitching of tents and the overa ll excitement of th e ten days unfo rtunatel y had to come to an end. Eddy and Barb (host and hostess ) are people to be pra ised and we were all extremely thankful, they took us on their bus, sorry! coach - into the mid dle of Australia. It had to a ll end I suppose but it's a trip we' ll never forget and look fo rward to other similar journeys ! (Hint , hint) Thanks to: Bronwyn , Liz, Annette and Lucy and not to fo rget the students for such an enj oyable trip . Michelle C ubberly Year 11

TED On our recent trip to "The Centre: we were fortunate enough to meet the much famed Ted Egan. A man of many talents, Ted, along with Nerys, played gracious host to our merry band of travellers during our stay at 'Sink-a-Tinnie Downs'. Whilst staying with "Him" fortune \:?estowed us, allowing us to enjoy two of Ted's campfire concerts and our own private audience with "Him". After witnessing the singer/ songwriter/entertainer in concert, those of us who were not already disciples of his soon became converted. Ted's concerts are an experience to remember. Accompanied solely by his Fosterphone, Ted provides us with his own unique talent, which allows him to mix the humour of the outback into lively foot-tapping songs and soft sung ballads. Ted begins his concerts by introducing himself with the famous "g'day, I'm Ted Egan" introduction and then launches into singing such popular numbers as "The Drinkers of The Territory". Ted Egan provided the highlight of the tour for many and we are grateful to him and Nerys for allowing us to stay with them. So if you've read "A Touch of Rough Ted", and if you haven't - take a look; and you'll find that Ted Egan is the hero of the book! Alice Blake Year 11

WORK EXPERIENCE The first day of work experience, most students were filled with nerves as well as anticipation. I will admit that butterflies were chaos in my stomach as I realized that I didn't know where my work experience place was. Although it was a brisk day I could feel tiny beads of perspiration rolling down my neck as I came closer to Thomas Cook. I realized I wasn't alone in my nervousness as I though of my fellow classmates, especially Denise with all those young policemen surrounding her. As the first week was growing to an end most of the year l l's were becoming exellent coffee makers and had blisters on their feet from running around with messages. I think most people were doing two placements so at the start of the second week the nervousness began over again. Coffee, tea and messages were becoming routine but a lot of observation was included in a days work. Employers were friendly and sympathised with the awkward position we work experience people were in . Most girls had helpful employers. I say most because not everyone would agree. I think that work experience did make an impression on most students and we found it very worthwhile. This years work experience was a great success and we appreciate all the work that went in to prepare it for us.

STUDY STUDY STUDY! Let it be openly stated that the MOST important thing in a year l l's life iS'study. It is a myth that a social life even exists in the dreaded eleventh year. The wise people at the reins of CLC realize this and provided us with an opportunity to make these long hard hours of study more fruit-
ful. Straight after the May holidays (which we undoubtedly spent feverishly studying for the much feared year 11 exams) the whole of our year embarked on a new adventure in study skills known as M .A.S.T. , a name which is firmly implanted in the minds of every year 11 student at CLC. M . A.S.T. stands for Management and Study Techniques. Naturally we focused on the latter, h owever we did pick up a few helpful hints on how to manage teachers and their troublesome ways. For two days we learnt how to improve our whole attitude and approach to study through exercises, visual aids, handouts and discussions. The course was very well presented and managed to cover practically every aspect involved with being a student. We learnt how to manage our time, where to study, what to study and why we are studying.

Have you ever made a "mind map"? At first most mind maps looked like a mystery tour gone wrong, but by the end of the second day we could arrange notes in a logical order that were easy to study and use for revision in a fraction of the time it used to take us. This was much quicker than laboriously writing every word in the obsolete linear fashion.
SOCIAL Mrs. Virgato and Ms. Crow ley had an interesting time with a number of Cassanova's visiting from Romper Room. Over yonder, who's that bespectacled man breaking up couples? Overall the night was great . Everyone seemed to enj oy themselves and partied until pumpkin time. Marisa Bredle Maria Lopes
I feel that the course was invaluable even if we don't use very technique we were taught, I'm sure all of us will benefit from the program in one way or another, even if it only inspires us to tidy up our desks at h ome.

SUMMER DREAMS A summer breeze sings softl y In the garden of my mind , While murmuring a message, W ords fa intly undefin ed. Thoughts of long lost seasons N ow pass on waves of light , Butterflies drift by me Wings spread in fitful flight Beneath the green clad branch es I dream, with eyelids closed , Blinds drawn on tiny windows to shelter my repose. Such are the summer dreams, Hours lost in idle momen ts , The present , past and future A web of tangled schemes. Angela Farrell Year 11

Four days in the Cath edral Ranges, away from all the comfo rts of home , spent unde rtaking all sorts of outdoor activities, pro mised to be an interesting experience. This is what Mrs McCutchan, aided by the "O utdoor Activities Group" had o rganized fo r our end of year camp. The acti vities included bushwalking, rockclim bing, abse iling and canoe ing; all of which everyone was given a chance to experience. Bushwalking included staying out overnight away from the main campsite. Mrs McCutchan ga ve us the impressio n that the walk itself was something of a leisurely stro ll th ro ugh the countryside. However, we soon discovered that it was in fac t a treacherous, fa tiguing seven ho ur uphill climb, which most of us spent crawling on our hands and knees, and scrambling over rocks! Upon reaching our overnight campsite we discovered that our clothes were practica lly ripped to shreds, and in some cases our supplies fo r the fo llowing morning's breakfas t - such as eggs had broken in our best and only pair of underpants! Following the discovery of these unfo rtunate mishaps we set up camp fo r the nigh t and tested our cooking expertise on that night's tea. Because most of us were lacking in this area , we dined on cold noodles and vegetables - most appetising! The fo llowing morning we got up and cooked breakfas t, which was a bit more successful than the preceding mea l as we had fin ally learned how to master the portable stoves. After this we set off back to the main campsite, which was fac ilitated by pittoilets and a running stream, now seemed luxurious in comparison . The next three days were spent engaged in rockclimbing, abseiling and canoeing. At first rockclimbing and abseiling appeared to be extremely dangerous and fri ghtening, however it soon became second n ature fo r us to scale the sh eer rock faces of the Ranges, to and fro m great heights. The canoe trip down the rapids of the G oulburn Ri ver was also most enj oyable. After an afternoon spent learning how to master the art of taming the rapids. W e enj oyed a scenic trip down the river. Whether this trip was of our own direction or because we couldn't fight the current is debatable ! Overall the camp was a most enj oyable and very worthwhile experience. Alice Blake Year 11
CANBERRA TRIP May 8th , 6.30 am (Yawn) 45 Year 11 students set off fo r Canberra. Arrive at Tullamarine, and catch a wink and a "Hi G irls" from Jacko. O nce seated onboard we pigged out on ome lettes, sausages and orange juice , while some first-flighters were a little nervo us. W e arri ved in Canberra at 9. 40 am and headed off fo r Parliament House and morning tea with our local M. P., Mr. N eal Brown. Afterwards we visited T elecom T ower on Black Mountain , had lunch in a park, watched an info rmative film on the developmen t of Canberra, then set off to find out wh at was on at the local pictures. While wa iting fo r the teachers to come back with an answer, Emma the animal (Emma Quilkey ), dec ided they 'd fill in the time by th rowing our beloved mascot (Ted) out the bus window and into the gutter. Luckily he was retrieved unharmed as a group of bogans walked past him in the gutter. Then the teachers came back and total chaos took over. (We h ad to dec ide which film to see out of 3) . After some time, the back seat boppers won, and we bought tickets to "The Jewel of the Nile" . Las t on our list fo r the day was a trip to the new Parliament H ouse site . After watching another film we travelled to the "C restwood Inn" to se ttle in and h ave dinner. Frozen fi sh fingers, chunky mush room soup, half fri ed chips, then dessert . . . at least the teachers seemed to enj oy their candle li t ch ampagne dinner. Boy, that town is really alive! W e saw them watching cars rust fo r fun! After the mo vie we drove back up Black Mountain fo r a great view of the city by night. When we arri ved back at th e Motel we were to ld it was lights out at 12 am. (Sure thing). Many parties raged on in to the morning, including one which consisted of fo urteen happy girls. It was a real cock when Mrs. G reen sprung us, eleven guilty looking girls streamed out of the bath roo m. (Too bad , end of party). May 9th ; T oo early - bloodshot eyes bulging from our heads we left stale cornflakes and ski pped breakfas t. W e se t out fo r the Institute of Sport and tried to find an opening or a keyho le into the weight room. Shopping was next, and the loca l shopkeepers didn 't know what had hit them. Man y of us rushed stra ight to the fas t food counter. O ther visits this day included th e Min t, High Court, N ational Ga llery, W ar Memorial, and a to ur of some of the Embassies . W e begged the bus driver to take us th rough Duntroo n Mili ta ry Camp , and screa med each time we spo tted some guys. W e boarded our plane home, along wi th Premier John Ca in, who sat in first class while we were allocated economy seats near the rear. Before long we were landing in Melbourne. Some of the group were off to Central Australia next morning! The tri p was great , and we'd like to thank Mrs. G reen, Mrs. Endersbee, and Mr. Smith fo r putting up wi th us. Monique Burt Melissa H arrison
WILSON'S PROMONTORY BUSHWALK March 8-10th Our contingent made off for Wilson's Promontory. It was still dark when we left, but not one of us could sleep . Upon arrival we learnt that this walk was going to be different from any other; there were shops nearby, a myriad of peop le, and above all, toilets which flushed! The first days walk took us from Mt. Oberon to W aterloo Bay through occasional drizzle, and much stopping to put on or take off japara's. We fin ally reached the beach, and dec ided that the long trip was worth it. The water was a beautiful green and the sand a shimmering white. We thought that we had found "Paradise Lost" . The morning broke dramatically with rain, and for some, a cold breakfast, after which we packed up camp and headed towards Sea ter's Cove. Anything waterproof was used to cover our backpacks and bodies. By lunchtime the clouds h ad disappered and we felt ready fo r a swim . Afterwards we ate o ur chocolate rations (occasionally accompanied by fruit and biscuits), and then left, only to face another apparently insurmountable climb. This one was dec idedly worse than the trek between W aterloo Bay and Refu ge Cove. At Seater's Cove , after examining blisters, some of us excl aimed o ur disgust at our filth, and braved ga le-force winds to sw im in water close to freez ing. Around the campfire we expounded the man y virtues of bushwalking, while studio usly ignoring sore backs, co ld hands and wet clo thes. Our third and final day brought us further joy. T o add to our list of sightings there was a koa la, graz ing wallabies, a penguin, and thousands of birds. The track was covered in mud fo r more than half-way, but the on ly thing that worried us was that we were head ing bac k to the minibus and C LC. W e went ho me ex hausted, dirty, exhilarated, and itching for the next walk. Maree Germech Year 12

DUKE OF EDINBURGH November 1985 Part of the Duke of Edinburgh Award scheme which has been introduced into the school, is to take part in an expedition. This invo lved after school training for approximately three months, one night a week. During that time we learned map reading, compass and bush skills which were used in the final walk. We also had a training walk at Powe lltown. The final walk was to climb The Bluff near Mt. Buller. We had to walk 25km, navigating our own way and camping overnight. A great time was had by all. Queen's Birthday, 1986 Saturday 8.00am, four leaders, 15 Year 9's and two year IO's set out for Eildon. We set camp on arrival, then walked about ISkm , mostly uphill at Fraser National Park. Dinner in the dark was followed by Murder in the Dark. Next morning we set off for Healesvi lle. The IOkm downhill track, with quite a lot of mud, was enjoyed without rain! After a late lunch, a lost watch, and last minute photos, it was back to C LC. Many, many thanks to Mrs McCutchan for a ll her work to give us these trips away.
YEAR 10 Well so here we are again, reporting on our ever so exciting year. So far we've done work, work, work and more work, and have we played? NO! But life as a year 10 isn't so bad. We've got our social, we've had our retreats, been to the movies, and that's just about it. Other activities we've done have been ballroom dancing at Parade in 1st term and at Marcellin in 2nd term.

SUR VIV AL COURSE FOR FLUTE STUDENTS Over the centuries, people have tried and tried again to last the duration of a flute lesson despite lack of practice. Some have succeeded, but most haven't! So, I have coll·ected little bits of information from one flute lesson or another and have put these together to form a complete survival course for flute students.
THE FOUR GOLDEN RULES l. 2. 3. 4.
NEVER admit that you haven't practiced. ALWAYS have an excuse handy - better make it tragic. No matter what happens, DO NOT get the teacher angry . A VOID suspicion.
BALLROOM DANCING
WHAT TO A VOID
Ballroom dancing at Parade College was a new experience. It was a chance to meet people and many friendships were formed. It was an opportunity to learn how to Ballroom Dance. Everyone enjoyed themselves immensely, especially the final night. Parents and friends were invited to partake in the evening. A worthwhile experience. Jackie O'Rourke Year 10
1. 2. 3.
A VOID playing the pieces you haven't practiced. If you haven't practiced any, then don't play any pieces. A VOID choosing that day to yell at the teacher and calling him/her a lousy hypocrite. AVOID going to your flute lesson altogether. This is called TACT.
EXCUSES, EXCUSES l.
2.
3.
DO NOT use repetitive excuses. By this, I mean: don't give the teacher a note which says you have had to go to your Aunt Gemima's 40th birthday party over the weekend; every week for three months. DO NOT use unbelievable excuses. For instance, don't say that you got a major heart attack on the weekend and couldn't practice, but now have miraculously recovered. When forging a note, do not sign the note in any of these ways: (a) (b) (c) (d) and if your name happens to be Jenny Smith, don't sign the note: JENNY SMITH.

YEAR9 CANOEING It was really good until about 11 . 15 am, then the canoe capsized. l t was that cold , I couldn 't fee l my legs. It was like I was paralyzed, but apart from that, it was really good. I learn t a lot. I hope I can do it again some day, and maybe even stay in the canoe. In the morning it was freez ing and there was a lot of fog so yo u couldn't see ahead of you. By late afternoon it was warm and my partner and I got the hang of it. W e h ad races and played ch asey in our canoes. A few people fell out, but luckily I didn 't.
ROCKCLIMBING O ur instructors made the activity really fun and enj oyable. It was exciting to be able to do something diffe rent fo r a change. I loved it. It's the most enj oyab le th ing I have ever done in my life . W e never got to rock climb with our fa mily. It was an experience I'll remember.
BUSHWALKING W e went to Murrindindi and started by walking up a mountain fo r one hour. W e were then re lieved that the rest of the wa lk was fl at. W e came to a waterfall wh ich was beatiful , and then kept walking. W e finally saw the bus , and ran fo r the toilets. Hiking was a very enj oyable way to get closer to nature , and also closer to your classmates and teach ers.

CYCLING Cycling was great fun . Riding down hills was great, but when it came to riding up the hills it was time fo r most of us to walk. The best part of all was when we h ad completed the 26 km and we sat down and ate ice creams at the station. I thought it was really fa ntastic, especially downhill . Some uphills were mortify ing, but that's life!

SKIING Skiing was fa ntastic. W e had a great day fo r it , and I even got sunburnt . The instructors were really n ice and by the end of the day everybody could ski reasonably well. The best part was the tra il , the hills were rea lly long and you went so fas t that everybody fell over a lot. Excitement, awating to be off. Falling over, cold snow aga inst your skin . Downhill , scary, but fun Learning, finding new skills. Wishing that the end will never come.

THE EXPLOSI ON ...
WINTER
It was an averge day in Melbourne, Business men in ties and jackets Striding along to work, briefcases in hand For yet another dull day at their desks. Smartly dressed ladies, straightening their skirts, Reapplying lipstick, disappearing into offices. No one knew what would happen that day. No one even suspected ...
Winter only. comes once a year, before Spring and after Autumn . Cold and icy, the wind blows in all directions. The city in morning glistens with ice. And fog shrouds the valleys. Scarves, gloves and coats outside, The fire crack ling inside; the cat purring, snuggling up for comfort. Nicole Brisbane Year 9
The explosion that went off in Russell Street The explosion that brought terrorism to Melbourne Thursday the 27th of March Havoc and screaming in the streets of our c ity Fear and disbelief that this could happen T o a city such a stranger to violence.

FREE Swiftly down the mountain, He made a path in newly layed snow. The fresh cri sp breeze blew through his ha ir. He fe lt great exc itment, There was nothing to disturb him . Para llel turns, dodging obstacles, C utting th rough clusters of trees, Jumping Falling, It was a ll fun. He sta rted go ing faste r now, No turns, Just straight to the bottom. He finally stopped And stood staring All alone in a different world No fear Nothing He was free. Lara Breen Year 9
MY DESK My desk is a good o ld desk. No one is allowed to use it except me of course. With strange scratches and dents in it, it is surely no t like any other. When you lean on it a certain way it will always make a familir creak. The desk drawers are always cluttered with bits and pieces so that it's hard to close sometimes. On my desk there is a lamp to the left and a radio to the right. And in places it is piled with books because I like slightly messy desks - but I always find roo m to do my homework . Sandra Colbert Year 9
THE MARVELLOUS BOOK The shop was tiny and ignored, an irrelevancy to most who bustled past its antiquated front each day. The door groaned as I stepped into the dimly lit interior. There was a musty smell to greet me, tempting me to look at and read each and every antique book. A petite, wiry lady with spectacles sat quietly behind a desk humming to a tune playing from a huge mahogany radio. The shop was fasc inating. There were postcards fro m all round the world, spanning decades, cigarette cards from war time and a variety of o ld tourist maps. I went over to one of the shelves and pulled ou t a dusty volume. I wiped away the dust and discovered it was an Encylcopedia Brittanica from the 1800's. It was abso lutely beautiful! It was superbl y bound in rich, deep green leather. It was smooth and covered in those erratic lines characteristic to leather. It was marvellous. I opened the book. The pages were ye llowed around the edges. The paper was thick and resilliant despite yea rs of use. The print was small and very dark. I closed the book with a slight bang; the musty smell wafted to my nostrils. From that moment I knew I had to have that book. Amanda Emerson Year 9

SCIENCE SCIENCE TALEN T SEARC H Last year we entered the Science Talent Search on the request of Mrs Willis. The research was entitled "Do animals re late color to food?" We used a dog, cat, horse and a temperam ental budgie. We only really entered on the chance of winning some money. The presentat ion day was really great. It was more a social event than an education al day because of the cute guys from De La Salle, Xavier and Wesley . Because we won so much money $10.00, we spent $25.00 on the research - we decided to enter two research projects and a game called Bacteriop oly, this year. Later this year we plan to market the game and make millions of dollars, and become really, really famous, and buy lots of pizza and chocolate with the money we make.

CHEMISTRY QUIZ On the 23rd of July, we participte d in the Chemistr y Quiz. There were about 60-80 girls in it. The questions were fairly easy, but we fuzzed the answe rs. The C hemistry Quiz was cha llenging. The questions were interestin g and I learned a lot from them. I wo uld recomme nd the quiz to anyone who finds science enjoyable Amanda Emerson Year 9 I sat down and stared blankly at the booklet in fro nt of me, listening attentive ly to Mrs Willi's direction s. I cou ld feel my heart racing as she prompted us to begin. Each question took carefu l considera tion. The minutes ticked by rapidly until a voice interrupte d my concentra tion. Time was up! I made a last minute check that my name and,o ther required informat io n was printed at the top of the sheet and made my way bac k to class, re lieved it was all over. Kim Snopkwsk i Year 9

I sat fo r the Science Competitio n in tota l silence, not know ing the mea ning of one word from another. After an ex haust ing ho ur and a half of mental fatigue, we (the yea r 9's) retired to the corridors to discuss our disappoin tment with each other. Jod ie C lark Year 9
GERMAN CAMP REPORT Well, what a camp. Great view on top of the mountain. It was freezing in Monbulk, but rugged up in plenty of coats and jumpers, we felt fine. The food was scrumptious, except for the soup. First night there was a session with two German people who taught us some German dances and songs. We also played "Leute Lotto" which was a great way to meet everyone. We went to bed at eleven, to sleep at four, got up at seven. Whew! Into the , shower queue and joined the breakfast table at eight. Saturday morning we had two working sessions, which consisted of writing German stories and painting German slogans on T-shirts. Then there was free time after lunch on the flying fox, trampolines and the ropes. That afternoon we played a game where we had to go looking for German clues to reach our various destinations. The winners received their prizes after the concert on Saturday night. The concert was great, embarrassing and funny. Later that night we had a relaxing time listening to pop music and eating more delicious food. Then it was finally to bed again. Next day we were up early, more working in groups; mainly learning new vocab, and practising speaking German. After lunch it was the big clean up with packing to do. It was a worthwhile learning experience in more than one way. You shared a cabin with people from four different schools, with different personalities and opinions. Many good friendships were made by the sounds of the last few minutes and the exchanges of addresses. Oh, and not to mention all the Auf Wiedersehens! Monica Ley Emma Rose Year 10

GERMAN KRAMBAMBULI German is famous for its cold and hot fruit punch. During the summer, signs hanging in the gardens of the cafes along the Rhine, Moselle and Neckar rivers anounce: "cherry punch today". On the white Rhine boats, the waiter on deck offers large glass mugs, set in bowls with crushed ice and filled with sparkling, full-flavoured "Kalte Ente", a delicious drink made of white wine and fruit. Hot drinks such as "Krambambuli" and 'Feoerzangenbowle' 1 are always welcome when sitting by a warm fire on a cold winter night. Krambambuli ( 18 servings) 3 bottles dry red wine 114 cup orange juice 2 tablespoons lemon juice l spiral orange peel l stick cinnamon 4 cloves 8 tablespoons sugar 1/J cup rum (54%) Combine wine, juice, peel, cinnamon, cloves and 4 tablespoons sugar in saucepan. Simmer 8-10 minutes. Strain into punch bowl. Heat rum slightly. Place remaining sugar in large metal spoon Light rum with a match pour over sugar pour burning sugar over punch "Prost!"
YEARS YEAR 8 RETREAT W e were driven to a place called Amberley, a Youth Renewal Centre. It used to be a Monastry. The place looked old and was very large. There were paddocks with horses and lo ts of trees everywhere. W e first played a game then did a bit of meditation. W e lay on the fl oor and Mrs Ven turini talked to us slowly telling us to concentrate on o ur breathing. I really felt relaxed and as though I was lifting upwards . By this time it was about recess and we just walked around and ate. When we came in we watched the "O utsiders" which was rea lly good but sad ; some people were crying. At lunch time everybody was going exploring down a ll these tracks and to the Yarra River, which was below Amberly . W e also visited two horses which we fed grass. Later on we broke up in groups and talked about the "Outsiders" and did plays that related to the movie. At2 .30pm , itwas time togo home. W ea l! left happily . It had been a good day.

MUSIC LESSONS We walk into the music room, Heads held high To face the terror and the doom, And hope we'll leave alive. Mr. Smith struts in the door, High heeled boots, glasses and all. He stamps his foot on the floor, "Girls be quiet, stop your brawl." Eventually we settle down, Five minute lecture 'bout mucking around, We get our instruments with a horrendous noise And sit down again, like stuffed toys. Mrs. von Moller waltzes in , Waving her stick in the wind, We all tune up to a note called "A" That leaves Mr. Smith in dismay. Mrs. von Moller gives a sign, 1, 2, 3, "Girls, keep in time!" Merrily we go along, Knowing that it sounds all wrong. We all sound out of tune, But the concerts in June, If we don't improve by then It will be our musical end. Ding, Dong, The bell has gone Heck these lessons Are so long. Jodie Nicholls Pauline Loftus-Hills Nerida Slizys Year 8
HISTORY WHY DO WE STUDY HISTORY W e study history because we learn from the past. W e learn about different times, about how life has changed and how these ch anges came about - How we got to our technological stage. But also people h ad their negative opinions. You can't change the past and we can't relive ancient times so why learn abo ut it ? This is room eight's point of view in history "86".
AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL . . . is a world-wide organization that defe nds the rights of people to hold and practise their own political, religious or o ther bel iefs, prov ided these do not infringe upo n the freedom and dignity of o thers. Why should this organization be represented in a s,chool? Because a schoo l is concerned with education and educatio n is concerned with equipping people to live full , aware and compass ionate lives. By in viting students to respond to the needs of the countless people who are impris,m ed and tortured because of their convictions, we are helping to achieve this a im .
ANCIENT TIMES HOUSE W ell it's finally arrived, yes it's the big day. The first history excursion fo r the year to be taken by rooms 3 and 5. There was a large amount of enthusiasm and excitement . T oday we are to visit the Ancient Times House in the heart of C hinatown . A s the train arrives at Parliament Station , Mrs Larsen gives the girls a quick look to check their attire before releasing them on the unsuspecting city. After a pleasant walk we arrived at a small door and were lead into a two-storey building filled with ancient artifac ts, some seats and a proj ector. After browsing through this fascinating place we were shown an interesting film giving us a descriptio n of the river civilizations. After this we answered some questions about certain obj ects while Mrs Larsen and Mr Andrews had a quiet cup of tea. Some time later we bid farewell and dashed off to a nearby park fo r lunch . W e returned to the station so we did not miss our train. Unfo rtunately the train was not as prompt. Anyway, after returning, happy girls left fo r ho me to tell of their day . Thanks to everybody involved in organizing this excursio n. Year7's
OUR FIRST DAY AT SCHOOL When we first arrived we felt kind of shy because we were now the "babies" of the school instead of the oldest. W e were all looking for our fri ends. W e weren't sure what to do at first. W e started off by go ing into our cl assrooms and huddling into our groups from last year. When th e warning bell went we were not sure of what to do, so we fo llowed each other into our rooms and started ta lking abo ut how we fel t on o ur first day. Each day we became closer to our new classmates. O ur first subj ects were Geograph y and Maths. W e had a fe w problems findin g our way around as well. The school seemed large , very large fo r the first week and we had trouble findin g the sc ience roo ms, art rooms and our music room. After about two weeks we could find o ur way aro und with our eyes closed. W e have fi ve more years to go and we hope they are all as pleasa nt as this yea r. Anthea Hawkins Louise D'Adam

YEAR 7 CAMP TO WEEKAWAY Our camp to W eekaway was fun! We h ad cabins filled with multi-colored doonas , bunks and the odd hook here and there. The beds were co mfo rtable, but even so , most of us didn't ge t to sleep until two or later each night. W e woke up each morning to a lo ud siren and ate in a hall. Our days were jam packed with lots of activities such as the fl ying fox, rope course , archery , bush cooking, indoor cooking and kite making (we attempted to make the kites fl ya ble). It rained a lo t of the time, but still we man aged a couple of hikes. O vera ll the camp was a great success and a fun way to get to know o ur year seven students and teachers. Belinda Ben to n RoomS On Monday, May 5th , rooms 4 and 5 set tracks to go to W eekaway Lansfield. On W edne5day the 7th rooms 2 and 3 also packed their bags.

When we arrived we played games such as basketball, trampolining, tennis and orienteering. The most popular play ing equipment was the flying fo x. W e got most people on the flying fox, even Miss Foot. This is what most thought of the camp , it was good, grouse , OK, fa ntastic, pity it ended so fast, it should have gone fo r a lo t longer. Teachers bugged you all night but it didn 't worry us. W e were even threatened to go and clean up the showers if we didn 't stop talking (what a threat) . W e also went on walks and sang songs . Room 4 thought it was great too and everyone was sad it ended . The food was just OK. Claire Dunell Kristi Vincent Louise D'Adam Anthea H awkins Andrea Thomas
MATHEMATICS
. MATHS WEEK Maths week arrived with excitement high, All of the girls in Year 8 made coloured Pl. The puzzle a day got everyone in Hoping like crazy that they would win. Each class had something special to do Maths Trivia made Year 7 all cry and hue. And Year 8 trail~d Maths all over the school Though Year 9's Number Game demanded sheer cool. ln search of some money, Year 10 puzzled hard Cakes galore in the foyer, included a car. Some teachers looked grouse in their jumpers so white It's a pity they don't always look such a sight. Some girls sported badges all over the place Fact is, they wore them with flair and with grace. Unfortunately its over for one more year, Not to worry, Maths as usual is still here.

HARP DONATION We took delivery of our fine harp this yea r. The h arp was donated by the parents of a student afte r being so impressed by the 1985 end of year concert. We are fortunate in gaining the services of Miss Pamela Raines to teach this instrumen t, and now have several budding harpists in our midst.
ENSEMBLE PLAYING Th ere has been a steady increase in ensemb le pl ay ing in 1986, and was particularl y ev ident at the Year 7 concert. The sharing of musica l performances with o thers is one of the most rewarding and pleasurable as pects of learning an instrument.
THE FUTURE The invo lvement in musica l ac tivities has been graduall y increas ing and no doubt will continue to grow in both numbers and qu ality. W e look fo rward to further good music, fu n and enj oyment in the future.
MUSIC MUSIC DEPARTMENT 1986 has been a very active year for our music department with increases in the instrumental programme, performances by the orchestra and concert band, and more excursions and music workshops. All of these are aimed at creating another dimension in each student's education. Performances at: Heidelberg Festival Mrs. & Mr. Virgato's wedding Parade Art Show Year 7 Concert End of Year Music Concert School Assemblies Workshops at: CLC Greenwood High School Excursions To: Opera - Don Giavani North Texas University Big Band
ORCHESTRA The Orchestra is made up of about thirtyfive members from years 7 to 12. They rehearse every Wednesday and have participated in a number of ativities including the Heidelberg Music Festival. The Orchestra has brought many honours to the College, due to their dedication, and the hard work of their conductor, Mrs Von Moller.
CONCERT BAND The Concert Band is also made up of approximately thirty-five students who drag themselves reluctantly on Monday lunchtimes to bang, crash and blow for an hour, to see how much noise they can make. The Concert Band has also had a great success this year with a music workshop at Greenwood High, the Heidelberg Music Festival and excursions to see the Texas State University Band and Don Giovanni. They are organised by Mr Smith, who usually after a bit of ranting and raving and tearing his hair out, manages to get us organised enough to be able to produce music! Rose Ms;Crohan Year 10

Thanks to Miss Gleeson's wonderful organisation and guidance, this year's school hockey team commenced on a fine no te . The first match was played at C LC aga inst Our Lady of Mercy, Heidelberg. With the commendable efforts of our enthusiastic players the hockey team managed a fin al score of 1-0. The return match evened out the score as we were beaten 1-0.

This was a particularly good year for the slave-driving Cross Country Team trainer, Mr. Morgan. The inclusion of what seems to be thousands of year seven's has dramatically increased the size of what used to be a small group of enthusiastic and later exhausted runners. This increase has included just as much enthusiasm and it has potential for exhaustion. Every Wednesday and Friday the team is lead around the Eltham Park and this training lead to great results in the S.C.S.A. cross-country as our Intermediate team finished third. Sonia Cavallo
NETBALL - Victorian Schoolgirl Championships Many young, talented sportswomen from CLC tried out for the school netball teams. The P.E. teachers had a difficult task in se lecting the three teams. The junior team consisted of Year 7 girls, the intermediate team was made up of Year 8 and 9 girls and the seniors were comprised of Years 10, 11 and 12 girls. The games were originally to be held on the 9th of July , but the petrol strike and rain delayed our plans. The teams eventually played at Royal Park on the 23rd of July, and although none of our teams qualified for finals they displayed the qualities of fairness and persistence they have become well known for.

BASKETBALL This year it was the senio rs tum to dominate. Los ing to O ur Lady's in a practise match , before the tournament, proved to be a good incentive to beat them in the Grand Fina l. Everybody worked hard and in the end, it paid off. The quote of the day was Alexandra Willi ams' comment after the G rand Final, " Do we have another game now?" Even though the junior ream didn't win, you can't take anything away from them. Their determinatio n and enthusi asm made them winners on the day anyway. Their endurance and concentration were tested to the limit, having to play five ga mes in a row .

INTER,HOUSE ATHLETICS
INTER,HOUSE SWIMMING
O n Sunday April 6th , C LC held its annual inter-house athleti cs carni va l. The weather was very good and there were man y fa milies who came to support the ir daughters. During the morning all the track events take place and then during lunch the invitation relays are run. The schoo ls which we competed aga inst were Eltham Co llege , St. Columbus, S iena and Santa Mari a, and all the tea ms can be proud of themselves. The novelties are a lways a good way to fini sh the day as the girls relay support one another as a team . The staff/fa ther/s tudent three legged race saw many thrills and spills but the fa thers fin ally came out victorious. The overall results were Loyola first, then Marita , Vincentia and Aikenhead. The day was enj oyed by all with spec ial thanks to the P.E. teachers, mothers and fa thers fo r all their assistance. Sue Mitcham Marita Vice Captain
On Friday March 7, 650 girls arrived at Greensborough pool, ready once again to display their immense talent at the CLC annual inter-house swimming carnival. The day dawned bright, the sun beat down, which made competitors even more enthusiastic. The carnival was once again a very colourful, vocal and highly contested occasion . Overall winners were Loyola , with Marita coming a close second , followed by Aikenhead and Vincenti a.
PHYSICAL EDUCATION I say to myself "Wh at's today's excuse? " A s I stroll th rough the changeroom door , " I've got a terrible tumm y pain Miss ! " And my toenail's rea lly sore !" "Mum says I can't do S PO RT today, 'Cos I fe ll off me 'orse las t week, And bruised the end of me fingertip , 'Ere look Miss, have a peek." " I can 't do Sports today Miss , I r's my tum to stand as ide, Besides I fo rgot me unifo rm, And it's 3 degrees outside !" " Me Mum hasn't was hed me unifo rm , Mi ss , I put it out last nigh t, 'Cos it's been in me locker all of th e term, Boy it smelled something shockin ' all righ t. " "So I ain't got no white socks Miss , A nd me windcheater's ALMOST blue, Does it matter if Sting's on me shirt , A nd can I hop round with just one shoe?" "Can't do gym , Mi ss, sca red of heigh ts, Can 't hit the ba ll or umpire," The man y varied and wonderful excuses, Will fill a book when I retire.
Special thanks must go to the P. E. teachers, other members of staff and house captains, all who made the day a very successful one. Belinda W ard Loyola C aptain
INTER,SCHOOL CARNIVALS After the usual enthusiastic inter-house sports carnivals, CLC was well prepared to meet the onslaught of the 'city schools' in the inter-schoo l swimming and athletics. For many weeks before the inter-school swimming the squad braved the free zing weather and icy waters of Doncaster and G reensborough pools, all in the name of dedication, team spirit and a dri ving desire to be Genazzano. W e were determined to put on a good show and sure enough on the night we finished in fo urth position - our best resul t in this division fo r swimming! The school athletics team also tra ined with enthusias m . While some students were laz ing on the oval trying to tan their legs, our dedicated sports women were tra ining - do ing laps, jumping ·hurdles and wildl y th rowing various projectiles (j avelins, shot put , etc. ) across the expanse of the oval - much to dismay and physicca l danger of all the sunbathers. Although on the day C LC didn 't win a place, the who le team tried their hearts out and performed credi ta bly. W e would like to thank both teams fo r all their hard work in tra ining fo r these events, Mrs. Cross, Miss H arcourt , Miss G leeson and Miss Foott fo r their help , and the house captains fo r their organization and the cheersquads fo r their rowd y support.
