A FOND FAREWELL

• • •••

DAVID THOMAS 'Cheerful' is probably the best word. Cheerful after attending endless meetings relating to education in London, even though most of them were of no use to us and just made our job more difficult; cheerful when an injury to one of the staff brought a dark cloud over the school; cheerful to pupils, staff, parents and governors during the seemingly endless time that the Upper School was in the transition from Stepney to Bethnal Green; and cheerful even when he was caught out for for a 'duck' on his first appearance for the staff cricket team !

Many Heads can reasonably expect when they take up their jobs that there will be a period at the beginning when they can sit back quietly and make calm decisions about what needs to be done while the school carries on its normal way.

When Mr Thomas arrived in 1980 there was no such 'honeymoon' period. Decisions had to be taken quickly, and this was not easy when he had no clear experience of the evolutions which were in progress or in the pipeline: grammar to comp­ rehensive, St. Judes to Raine's Lower School and Parmiters to Raine's Upper School. Nevertheless with authority and good humour he tried to bring together all the bodies involved in the change and although for none of us was the operation comfortable, it has to be said that it might well have been a great deal more unpleasant without the Head's abilities.

Many people feel that when Rain&ls finally became fully comprehensive it would lose a lot of the popularity and charisma that it had when it was a grammar school.

No longer, they said, would there be more applications for entry than there were places available. In fact, during the last two years of Mr Thomas's seven year Headship there were over six hundred applications for the three hundred places available in the First Year. So much for the doubters

And all credit to the

Head !

We wish him well in the calmer waters of Enfield.

J. Everton.

WARM

WELCOME .....

Lewis arrived at Raine's in September

to take on the responsibilities and challenges which the headship of a large urban school always brings. Having spent the last ten years as deputy headmaster of Langham School, he will be no stranger to either 'responsibility' or 'challenge' and as the school year at Raine's begins in its usual hectic fashion, I am sure he will find both his experience and his energy most useful qualities.

Prior to his post at Langham, Mr Lewis taught at Grey Coat Hospital, Westminster where he spent a happy seven years.

Mr

LeWis, welcome to Raine's. We hope

your time with us is happy and successful足 unfortunately, we can't promise not to work you too hard Ed.

editorial

This year sees the launch of a 'new look' Raineian Magazine.The purpose of this policy change is to give the magazine a more accessible look and feel that, it is hoped, will make the pupils of the school (Who are after all

the main

receivers of the Raineian) want to read it and to contribute to it.At the same time, we still want to reflect the raany varied facets of school life and so we have tried to, as usual, include many reports on the various activities that have taken place this year.

.

The magazine has been produced with the kind co-operation and help people

Dr. CIOCI

Last

term the school sadly said goodbye

to Dr. Alfredo Cioci, Head of Physics at the school for seventeen years.Dr. Cioci was born in Florence in

Italy

I

one of the world's great cities.

He lived

and worked in various

countries of Europe before coming to Britain twenty years ago.He liked it here so much that he bought a house and entered the teaching profession.lt was our good fortune that he accepted a job at Raine's.Many generations students

of Physics

can testify to the skill and

success of his teaching. Dr. Cioci has a total commitment to Physics

and few

teachers can match his grasp of the subject.

He will be missed but not forgotten.

We wish him and his wife a

very happy

retirement.

BIRD AND GARDENING CLUB

Starting a Bird and Gardening Club in the middle of Bethnal Green didn't seem like a very good idea at first but once we got a started and people saw that it involved digging holes in the school grounds, grovelling in mud and tipping water everywhere, everyone wanted to join in - and that was just the staff!

Since spring the gardeners have replanted the old 'flower' bed outside the staff room window, grown plants from seeds for inside the classrooms, planted two Whitebeam trees and trained three ivy plants to climb up the bike shed wall 足 well, at least it makes achange from the second years!

As for the bird club, there have been many trips to Victoria Park to observe the water birds on the lake - mallards, tufted ducks,canada geese, coots, pochards etc. - and two trips out, one to the Walthamstow heronry and one to the Blackwater

estuary.

At Walthamstow we saw many heronsgliding in to land on the islands in the middle of the reservoirs.Jane McCarthy spotted. a heron. on the day we went to the Blackwater too, and Soleman Hussein pointed out a pair of cormorants pounding a pathway across the sky.Ms Smith thought she had spotted a very unusual wading bird on the shoreline but after a second glance she realised it was only Leigh Hicks up to her knees in water, looking for shells ! We did see a curlew and an oyster catcher, though, as well as a great black backed and several black足 headed gulls.

In spite of the appalling weather and everything else ( ! ) it was a great day out. Many, many thanks to Mr. Jones and Mr. Philpotts for being such good drivers and for

of humour throughout !

TALES FOR APRINCE : THE DAPPLED ROCKING HORSE There once lived a little girl whose name was Jill.Her mum and dad were poor but they always gave their child as many toys as they could afford.

Now one day when Jill went shopping with her parents and the house was as qUiet as amouse, all of Jill's toys started talking and in the middle of the conversation, a deep voice grumbled, , I need a new coat of paint.'

It was the rocking horse, and yes, he did need a new coat.

'Why don't you go and ask someone to paint you?' suggested the teddy bear. And the rocking horse agreed, So the rocking horse set down from his rockers and set off to look for a person to paint his coat.

Soon he came across a group of frogs. 'Excuse me could you possibly paint me a new coat of paint ?' he asked.

'Certainly,' said the frogs. So the frogs got their paint and their brushes and went to work.

'Marvellous,' murmered the rocking horse.He'd look lovely with his new coat. Very soon they were finished.

But, oh dear. He was an awful green colour. So as soon as the frogs had gone, the horse started rolling in the grass trying to get as much paint off as he could. But very soon he just lay still crying, because he looked even worse than ever.

Soon a little crowd of mice came by and asked him what was wrong.When the rocking horse told the mice, they took pity on him and said,' Never mind, we will give you a beautiful spotted coat of new paint, but you must stand still because we will have to lean ladders against you to reach.'

So the mice painted a beautiful dappled coat, just as they had promised, and although their tiny little brushes tickled the rocking horsf., he never moved an ear.

He thanked them again and looked very pleased for now he would look nice for Jill.

So, if you know a little girl with a dappled rocking horse, ~ou never know, it might be Jill, Katrina Randell 2J

Dear Sponsors, Greetings from all of us in the family here in the name of our Lord! We hope you are all getting along quite well this summer.

Things are going tolerably for my family here owing much to your loving concerns and prayers for us. A oarload of thanks for the valuable grant just arrived_ We feel the warmth of your love for us in every grant coming - and it is a good incentive that motivates each of us to further efforts.

We go to church well, and there we never fail to give our special prayer for you all. And we love the Bible - to enjoy its stories, appreoiate its teachings, adopt its standards, and find its God, thus being led to find new joy and interest in the Bible, and aocept it for ourselves, as indeed it is, the Word of the living God. May the devine graoe of the Lord be upon you all until next time.

Hallelujah I Love from all of us , Pyerng-ja for the family

SWIMMING The rippling clear water, Calming my tense nerves, As I lower my body.

Then a final gulpwater rushing past me and I come up for air, Throwing my arms behind me To clutch what is not there.

Afrantic kick: I gain a little lead.

Water in my mouth, The pace now slowing down.

Only we know the pain ahead, aching limbs, gasps for air, Awhirl-pool pulling at our legs.

I swallow wat8r but before me The end.

In a final kick, I rake the water, It's good to feel something solid.

My pounding heart

RUNNING Must keep going, To reach my destination.

Something pushing me, An inward fascination.

Step by step, Mouth open, Breath panting, Rain fall ing, Wi nd whi st ling, Feet pounding, Getting slower, Flag ahead, Confidence growing.

Lorger steps, Growing faster, Two more steps, One and finished!

Across the line足 Mission accomplished!

SNOWDON '87足 Everyone arrived outside the school gates at B.30am prompt, eager to set off.

First of all, all the luggage was put into the black bags then put onto the roof of two mini-buses and tied down. Then we all said good-bye to our parents and got on board. most of the way we had the t'adio on vet'y loud.

It was a vet'y long Way. When we got there we had to drive up a very steep hill to a barn with a wall in front of it.

When we all got off the mini足 buses everyone wanted to get their luggage, but we first had to pitch the tents.

Mr Willett and Mr Wilson put one tent up to show how it was done.

Samantha Prigg was complaining about all the sheeps muck on the grass, so Mr Willett threw some on her.

After we had pitched the tents and put all the lugga~e in them, we all just sat around laughing.

For dinner that night we had a stew~ it wasn't fabulous but at least it was edible.

After dinner and after the washing up was done every-one went back down to their tents until it was time for cocoa.

Every-one was supposed to stay in their tents until Bam, but we was all up at.6.30am.

When Mr Willett came down we all rushed back to our tents. Af tet' breakfast we all had to get our ruck sacks because we were going to Beddgelert.

Why do we need our ruck-sacks ? we thought, we soon found out. We had to walk' Not just along flat ground, but along three different mountains; it was a t'eally tit'ing ~oJalk.

When we

finally got back all we wanted to do was sleep.

In the evening we had cocoa and a story by Miss Fuller, then off to bed.

By Wednesday we were all getting up a bit later and some people were late for breakfast, which was at B.30am. After breakfast we got our rucksacks again collected our ready made packed lunch and got on board the mini-buses.

We were going to the beach for the day, where we swam, played rounders and'9 s9uared king ball~ Thursday was the day we had to climb Mt. Snowdon.

We got our pack lunches ready and had a clothes inspection to see if our clothes were warm enough.

We drove to the bottom of Snowdon and then got out and started to climb.

After the first five minutes we all wanted to rest.

When we got to the top there was a cafe and we all had a dt'ink.

It was a hat'd journey going down but eas iet' than going up.

That night everyone was tired and could not wait to go to bed.

On our last day we went to the Slate Mines and on the Blaenow Pfestiniog Railway, which was 9Llite eHuting.When we got off we were in Porthmadog, where we went shopping.

We spent the rest of the day in the river ne x t to the camp-site; this was gt'eat fun!

All too soon our holiday was over and we had to sweep out our tents, pack everthing away and head home - after first waving to the sheep, of course!

the form

teachers who have been enthusiastic in giving their time.

We meet every week and have managed to organize an agenda for the year.

If you would like to find out more about the way school council operates I'm sure your form rep. ,Mrs. NaYQr or Mr. Phillips will gladly help.

Why not come along to one of our meetingsjYou may have something useful to add!

Tom Bus, the recently bereaved widower arrived sadly at the coffin Syrup Funeral Parlour.

He banged loudly on the gargo yle knocker.

The door eventually opened and Tom was confronted by an eight foot tall, muscle bound man in dark glasses.

The man had two metal things seemingly stuck to his neck that Tom could only conceive were trendy fashion accesot~ies.

"You t~ang, Sit~ .-;:... the giant asked slowly "No I knocked, but no mattet~," Tom t~epl ied 9uickly, sensing the significance to the plot.

"Mt~ Cula, OUt~ funet~al dit'ectot', is waiting fot' you in h.is office ," the tall man said."t'lt' who'?" in9Uit'ed Torn "Mr' Cula, Drack-Cula! now please come this way, si r~. " Tom followed the tall man, who called himself Frank, into a large hall and up ten flights o f sta ir s until they reached a co+ + 1 n shaped doot'.

Ft' an k disappeared through a side door of the same shape, leaving Tom to make his own entrance.

He tapped on the door which was yet aga i n opened by Ft'an k. " "YOU t' a

n g,

Si

t~? "

"Dh shut up we ' ve alt~eady done that gag ," Tom said walkin~3 in.

He found himself in a dark room containing a solitary leather chair facing away from him.

Suddenly it swung round e x posing a small man with greased back hair.

"Mt~ Bus I pt'esume ," I"h' Cula said in a Tt'ansilvanian accent "Yes, bLlt on ly by a 'few seconds ," Torn t'eplied.

Mr. Cula sat silently for a few seconds, giving the reader enough time to get the joke and allowins Tom to observantl y notice the shirt Mr eula wa s weat'ins; it looked as if it h a d . , been washed in plgS blood.

"So t路k Cu 1 a, you ,'IIa':3h y OUt' shit'ts in pigs' blood."

well I find it gives ze t'esults, I just love ze softness and aroma.

Now, you are here about your wife, ya t' ? " Yes, d eat' , d eat', I ma we were married for I, twenty years don't you know I "Ah, Ima Bus, yat~", "Well you might look mot'e like "Yes~

"Yes ve hav'e yoUt' Ima F'acked and ready to go. Iz zere anzine zat you vould like us to do to ze body?" Mt' eula said, licking his lips.

"Anything else? \1 "Yat~ ve could, slLwp, e :< tt' act her blood and make you a souvenir black pudding or perhaps you would prefer us to pluck out a toe nail and put it in a pendant" "Um, I St' think that my memories are all I need and they ' re embedded deep in rfry heat-路 t:' "VeI l , ma Y'b e ve c o u ld, p ant pant, get zem out for you, slurp.

"Anyway his essay has to be let's about four sides long so get on with it," said Mt' Cula opening his mouth so wide that it blocked out the rest of his face.

Tom kneeled on the floor and closed his eyes and hoped for a happy ending but unfot'tuantely felt Dt'ac Cula's hot, stale bt'eath gett ing closer to his jugular.

He was preparing for his gruesome and probably highly detailed death when suddenly the writer had a stt'oke of genius.

"Ahhhh" Dt'ac Cula screamed, rapidly turning into a pool of acid. "Vou't'e wearing garlic after shave for men, i~s the only thing that can kill a vampire like myself •.. " Mt' CLlt'las face melted and completed the now sulphuric puddle which resembled a good quality school custard.

Tom had some fun watching pencils he threw melt in the acid and then he turned towards the door.

Frank was standing there towering above him with a famished grin on his face, luckily Tom had a mega watt battery in his pocket and was able to short circuit the creature; it fell against the door and conveniently smashed it open, providing Tom's exit.

He hastily returned home via taxi.

Tom was last seen in the flesh at his wife's but'ial and is thought to be living, or should, I say residing in the chLlt'ch belft'Y. It is said he spends most of his daytime hanging around but he has an active nightlife!

MATHS CLASSES

ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE After the success of Professor Zeeman ' s televised lectures on mathnJatics, Christmas 1978, the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of mathmatics . Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have potential and interest were selected. The classes were held at the City of London Polytechnic.

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell, Thomas Bentley and Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics professors, teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils. They were so 'bitten ' by the bug', and created such a good impression on the organizers, that they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the summer holidays. Following their success, five pupils will be attending the masterclasses this year. It is hoped that Garoline Hughes, Karina Cox, Micky Kullar, Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last year's group did.

Miller took down details for the funeral while Pinky and Perk y abruptly stopped and turned on the requiem music.

Next morning Mike and Bob embalmed the bod y and laid it out in its coffin in the chapel of rest. At 11.30 they finished and sat down by the c offin to eat some crisps. The phone rang.

Bob put down his crisps and went to answer it. Mike put his crisps down and followed Bob out to count up the coffins.

A moment ~ater Mike came back to fin ish his c t' i s P ·s • He 1 00 ked at the table, then around the rest of the room but neither packet of crisps were an y where.

Bob was still on the telephone and Miller could be heard outside

dealing with a customer'.

Mike looked down at the face of the corpse, which, now he looked, had a s 1 i g h t s mid:: .

Had the y really left it in that position? The shop door slammed as the customer left.

Miller marched into the chapel of t'est.

"Did you leavE~ those ct'i':::;ps thet'e?" he demanded, holding up the two bags of ct'isps.

"Yes" Mike admitted, too t'elieved to 1 ie.

"Well don't, what if a customet' or Mr. Selwyn were to see crisps lying in rest with the dead body?" " The y , d P t' 0 b a b I Y gOt' i g h t 0f f c t' i s P s :' Mille t' 1 00 ked 0:<. t the man in exasperation.

Then the door to the shop opened, and Mr Selwyn himself walked in.

"Millet,!" he bellowed.

Millet' ft'oze, then ~"Ient tht'ough to see Mt' Se I wyn.

"Good mot'rling,Mt, Selwyn!' "~";e ' ve had a complai.nt. I don ' t pay you good money to get complaints.

I didn ' t get where I am today by getting complaints' "No, sit' ~"Ihat was the pr'oblem'?· "Tactle·:::;sness. Did you tell one of our customers to 'have a nice da.y?'"

"No, sit'."

"Don't intet'upt I" Millet' -fell silent "(:;t'e you ca 11 i ng me ali. at"?" "No, sit'," "Then YOLI ~"Iet'e tactles·:::;11I "5 i t' , I t h ink yo u 1 1 fin d i t..': "'{ou " t'e intet'upting again' I didn ' t get where I am today by interrupting and being tactlE?ss!

As he opened the door he called out "And by the way' t1i llet·,. h a. v e ani c e day!" The r-I t' 0 a t- i n g with laughter at his own weak joke, Mr Selwyn departed.

On Friday morning, Miller arrived early to ens:;ul'-'e was fot-· the II

funet'al.

He checked the flowers, made sure the hearse was immaculate and that the bald patch on the body was practically invisible.

At the appointed time, the relatives arrived and soon afterwards the hearse and following car moved off, without c,. hitch.

"So fa.t', so :300d," thought Miller as the cars turned into the ma i n t'oad.

Th e h eax'se shuddered violently and swerved, then slowed to a halt.

Bob . leapt out and hurried back to the second car.

"A punctut'e," he e:<pl.ained to Mille t' , thE: n hut' t' i e d a \"1 c,.y t0 change the wheel.

Eventually' the cat-· s moved off again at a faster pace.

Miller relaxed again, then sat bolt upright in horror.

He had spotted the hearse of their rivals, Popplewell's, evidently heading for the same cementary.

The cars sped up further and pa sse d the Popplewell hears e . Then Miller heard a police siren.

The cars were pulled up and booked for speeding by a pol iceman in no h L.wt'y, who calmly dealt with the increasingly frantic Miller.

When the cars moved off again they took a short cut through a ma ze of back streets in a desperate attempt to arrive before the Popplewell hearse.

As the hearse turned one sharp COt'[""let', one of the t"elati\/ es in the '"ecol"ld cat·-· g.::1sped.

The coffin could be seen sliding around in the back of the hearse.

Miller gritted his teeth and did hi s best to distract attention from the the c Cl ffin by c)\'et"' (~)oin~:~ 3t't'angeme'n ts a'jain.

With 50 m~y interuptlon~ to the programme, it would not have been surprlsing 1f all interest had be.n lost early on 1n the term, but the girls mainta~ned a remarkable enthUSiasm waiting for a games afternoon when the weather would be candu~ive to what hAd been planned.

With 50 much rain, the track was not alway. available and sess10ns on the coaching of hurdling. long Jump and thrOWing events came few and far between.

There were no compet1tlons for flfth year Slrls With only a few weeks before half term.

Sadly a triangular match WhlCh was to hava taken place at Slr John Cass School was called off at the last m1nute.

Nevertheless a full team had been selected and all girls were prepared to represent the School.

Early morning tralning seSSlons before school have proved popular, not necessar1ly because large numbers attend but because the regularity and enthusiasm of the few have made it a worthwhile

under the g~ldance and

It was not

Compet~laon started very eat'ly

on as Junior and Intermediate

teams were entered in the English Schools Milk Cup Championship, a team of twelve 91r1s iG needed, each to attempt two events , a track and a field or relay .

This tests real depth of talent.

Travelling to Bromley for the flrst round, both teams gained suffiCient pOlnts to go to the ReSlonal Finals at Copthall Stadium.

The Junlor team did not manage to set through to the final but are to be commended on thetr eTforts with each 91r1 Improving on her preV10US peformance In at least one of her events.

The intennediate team did very well winning the overall canpet1t1on.

CROSS COUNTRY The cros. country ~ea.on take~ place, as far as Raine . s 91rls are concerned a~ter half t.rm in the Autumn Term so as to prepare teams for the Tower Hamlets Champl0nshlPs. Sadly, for the flrst tlme 1n twen~y yearG, these Championships did nat take place.

However the Inter House Champl0nsh1PS were as keenly contested as usual with the Sen lor Race ta k lns place ln Vlctor~a Par~ on the last WedneSday of term. Vear s one to four competed at the Eastway Cycle Track.

C1rcult work and trainlng 1n P.E. lessons in addltlon to runs 1n V1cto'"la Park, prepared all the 9 1r ls for the House ChampionshIpS.

The standard of the Inter-House competitions played by half term was hieh,especlally In the senior tournaments, when Houses fielded full sides.

Wi th the indroduction of playground hoc~ey ln PE Lessons, the standard of stlckwor~ and understand1ng of the same have lmproved, espeCially ln the -fourth year> Their prowess and skill were evident at games afternoons with a large number pf 911'15 selecting hockey as thelr maln option.

As usual the annual tr1p to Wembley for the Inter'nablonal Hockey matches Ensland v U.S.A. was well supported with lower school pupils . with the characteristiC volume of slnglng on the way to Wembley and at the stadium be~ore the matches started; a good day w as had by all.

HOF:SES This the horses time to show off With white foam as they wait for their class, Their elegant features Their limbs cut like glass.

In9uisitive ponies listening.

A pony bolts away, Th t'OW i n~l mud, Under pounding steadiness of its hooves.

Too impatient to wait,

It goes to meet his stable mate.

The pa.tient one,

The one with the red rosettes.

FOt&rth YbV Trif' to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the Bam ferry to Calais . It was very cold windy on the boat so most of us wandered around inside looking in _and buying breakfast.

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium. On the way we saw several P "l ll Boxes and other structures left over from the second world War. On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten ~ minute walk through the town. After this we were taken to the Menin Gate . The is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is names of all the soldiers who have no graves and died in battles in the First World War are carved in stone .

years a massive crater where allied tunnelling companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which literally blew orf the top of the hill.

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal trench network on exhibition. We were told that it gave a reasonably accurate impression of what life was like in the trenches. It must have been terrible Part of the trench was submerged in water and there was slippery mud everywhere.

Original uniform, supplies and weapons were on display in Hill 62 museum and also some genuine, gory photographs that made us realise the destruction of life and buildinS that war brings.

After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or Ypres.We took a quick look around the cloth museum, answered our question sheets on the Great War and stole a last wander around the town to rind some native rood( chipsJ.All too soon it was time to go home after a tiring but very profitable daytrip.

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul Tiffin of the British Red Cross.He visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons.

At first we were embarrassed doing bandaging

and

mouth to mouth re足

suscitation but soon we became more confident and started to enjoy it.

An officer from

the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us for our certificate. We were all very nervous.

We think that everyone should have the first aid training because accidents happen all the time.
