Several highlights deserve special mention, none more so than the Federation Festival of the Arts which channelled a wealth of creative energy into a sustained display of performance and spectacle. Behind the scenes, the talent and enthusiasm of the artists and players were matched by the extraordinary contribution of a host of willing parents, led by Mr Shane Brennan, whose inspired grasp of both the 'big picture' and the smallest detail kept this ambitious undertaking on a steady course from its earliest conception right through to through to the closing sumptuous celebration dinner. This was an event in which our community truly invested its heart and soul. 2001 also saw the College embark on an adventure which is set to have a significant impact on the development of our learning pathways and of the natural environment of the school itself. Forty-eight pioneering Year 4s set up base at the sparkling new Enviro Centre and spent an exciting year learning quite differently. I am sure that they will carry with them not just lifelong lessons about caring for the environment, but the fondest memories of their unique learning experience. The year began in triumphant fashion with the remarkable back-to-back victory of our boys' 1st VIII at the first Head of the River to be held at Nagambie, and it was to end on an equally high note with the award by The Australian to our Fine and Applied Arts Department for the outstanding calibre of its work. In between these two superlative achievements, a rich and varied stream of activities running through the year has, once again, amply upheld and reflected the fine College traditions we have inherited.

6E Federation Quilt

During the year students from 6E collaborated to make a Federation Quilt to commemorate Australia's 100 years of Federation. Firstly the students investigated the many events that had occurred over the past 100 years, deciding on which events best represent our lives today. Each student was responsible for designing and making one square. The quilt was handed over to the College Community on Friday 14th September and now hangs proudly in the Helen Mackie Library.

We would especially like to thank the Prefects and Tutors for their support, and our Head of House, Mr Conway for his tireless work and dedication to Morrison and its students.

your chairs, two feet on the floor, instruments up and ready, 1, 2, 3 - the baton has come down on yet another fruitful year for music at the College, under the close watch of our new Director, Mr Roose. One of the most positive achievements to come from the Music Department this year has been the broadening of the different musical cultures explored by many students. Drawing inspiration from our knowledge of classical, jazz, and modern music, we have this year expanded our musical education undertaking studies in Latin American and Celtic music. This has provided a creative outlet for many of our students and has been warmly received by the student body at assemblies, lunchtime concerts and the Foundation Concert. We hope to see this continuing in the years to come. At the end of Term 2, the musicians of the College travelled to Campaspe Downs to take part in the annual "Band Camp". Workshops with Celtic violinist Hugh McDonald, singer, Lisa Young, and the Band of the 4th/19th Prince of Wales Light Horse Regiment were highlights over the four days, as was a performance by the Radio Rhythm Orchestra in Kyneton.

were very productive and beneficial, and this hard work was balanced out with recreational activities such as horse riding, the flying fox and canoeing. The camp was a tremendous success for all who took part. The musical highlight for 2001 was our very own Foundation Concert - showcasing the vast talent and commitment shown by musicians of the College. This night proved to be very enjoyable and rewarding as the years' dedication and determination come together in an outstanding display of ensemble music making. A particularly notable aspect of the concert was the large number of Preparatory School and Campbell House students who displayed admirable enthusiasm and interest in the world of music. Such participation should prove invaluable for the musical life of the College in future years. On behalf of the musicians of the College, a special thanks needs to be expressed to all the music staff who have shown enormous support and guidance throughout the year; it has been greatly appreciated.

Textiles

The nature of Studio Arts asks a student to take a broad experimental approach to working with textile fibres. This involves trialling and experimenting in an endeavour to find solutions to problems and questions. This has to be based on a sound understanding of the uses of a variety of materials and techniques, in order for the students to feel confident in their creative learning. At Year 9 this year the students produced an original hand painted design on a large windsock and learnt to master the many uses of the sewing machine when making their teddy bears. Year 10 looked at Surrealism and applied these images to their wall hanging, cushions or beanbags. Some of the Year 10s also tackled basketry and weaving. Both Year levels also studied a variety of fashion designers, textile artists and recent innovations in the textile/fibre area. At the VCE level, both the Year 11 and 12 students are expected to bring an open mind and an adventurous approach to the study of textiles. They excelled at this, making garments and art works that included techniques such as bleaching, dyeing, hand painting, beading and machine embroidery. Most of the art pieces were designed using altered or invented patterns. Unit 3 and 4 Studio Arts/Textiles students brought with them a solid grounding in many areas. Their final art works were the result of a genuine fascination for using fibre and fabrics to express their personal creative responses. This was stimulated by the various excursions we had to Melbourne galleries, including the Versace exhibition at the National Gallery of Victoria. We also visited the Geelong Regional Art Gallery to listen to our very own Ms Kathryn Locke talk to us about conservation, preservation of art works and the ways in which art works are presented to the public.

Design and Technology

This year has been an outstanding one with a new

study design with a bigger emphasis on the designing of a product for a client. The students have embraced the new study with flair and some amazing products I were produced. Charles Gordon designed an incredible office chair, with a gothic taste whilst Vincent Lo crafted a very ritzy table, which included glass bricks, mirrors and metallic laminex. There was a room divider with glass inserts and an interesting reclining chair by James Hope-Johnstone. We had a motorized scooter, computer desks, and designer coffee table. James Alston created a challenging crystal cabinet from an exotic timber, while Jack Eastman will recall boarding days at the College by making a replica dining table. Overall, a fantastic year completed by all my Design and Technology students. Mr R Kayler-Thomson

House of Guilds

2001 was the twenty-first year that the HOG has operated from its new site at the Austin Gray Centre and it was certainly a year worth celebrating. The year will be remembered for a number of things, but most probably the frenetic activity within the HOG around the time of the Federation Festival. Nearly all of the sets and props for the Festival were produced by the staff and students at the HOG, from masts for ships to seats and staging. We will also remember 2001 for the work that Mr KTS' students produced in the HOG as part of their VCE. Tom Paton's remote controlled ute took shape throughout the course of the year, and it was a pleasure to finally see it in action. Mark Fagg also worked hard to create his motorbike trailer, as did Nick Guyett in Year 12. The HOG and the College have continued to benefit from having members of the public working alongside our students

and this will continue to be a strength of the program in the way it brings the general public into our school. Other key moments from this year will have to be the handing over of Joe Jeans' work bench in March, Mr Andrews' spring clean of the HOG in Term 3, and Anthony and Jack's cooked lunches in Terms 3 and 4. I am extremely grateful for the help and assistance I receive from all members of the Austin Gray staff, for without their help it would be impossible to run such a fine facility.

Creative Writing/Poetry Bringer Of Death

She spies the fanged cretin, alerted by the small movement on the periphery of her vision. Slowly, it makes its way into the room, invading her private domain, trespassing on her sacred ground. ! no no no just turn around go back where you came from this is no place for you go away and maybe you'll live go away just go leave ! Oblivious to her silent yet frantically urgent messages, the bringer of death continues its journey into the unknown. With its impenetrable black armour and smug attitude it is blissfully unaware of the inner turmoil it is causing her. ! o jesus no grab something grab something not that ok I hope quick quick now get it now ! It stops, possibly sensing the rising tension of the moment. ! now do it now ! She strikes viciously, but not without caution. This time, it is the caution that may bring her downfall, for in this fateful struggle for life and death, one of the two must come off second best. She pushes down forcefully, all the time knowing her efforts are futile. Help is too far away, she must cope with this on her own. Releasing the pressure she snatches the weapon away and jumps back, heart crashing in her chest while cold sweat oozes from every pore. The demon, seemingly unharmed, scuttles away and finds refuge in such a place that she cannot reach, nor has any desire to do so. ! no ! It is over. She has lost. She has been defeated in battle, but will win the war yet. Camille Mewett, Year 11

It threatens to wriggle and squirm,

I attempt to cover my treacherous breach of trust. I immerse the listener in a river of lies, But fail to corrupt Her impassive pursuit of truth. Until her lips twitch into a smile And I see her struggle to constrain Her own disloyal, possessed tongue. I watch the instrument of jealousy and deceit Intoxicate her body with selfish desire As the secret festers in an other victim. Gemma White, Highly Commended in the Dorothea MacKellar Poetry Competition

Time Time to reflect, on wars lost and won, Time to remember, good times and fun. Time to share, memories of the past, Time to rejoice, and make the happiness last. Time to encourage, our children and friends, Time to apologize, to help our wounds mend. Time to engage, on our hopes and dreams, Time to discover, things aren't what they seem. Time to help, the homeless and the poor, Time to realise, we should try to do more. Time unite, together as one nation, This year is the centenary of federation, come with us and join the celebration. Elise Davey, Year 8

Arts Week

Despite the absence of Mr Phil Taylor, Arts Week went off without a hitch. As in previous years, the entire Fine and Applied Arts Department moved into Morrison Hall and endeavoured to make creative activities as appealing as possible to the entire Senior School student body. Judging from the large number of staff and students participating enthusiastically throughout the week at recess, lunchtimes and after school, the week was remarkable successful. The theme this year was "Nature of Art" with an emphasis on using natural materials to create art. Students and staff became involved in designing and weaving fibre baskets, framing natural objects, making three dimensional silhouette lamps, painting a mural of an abstract bush scene, working in plaster and of course a great deal of 'mud pudding'. Three Artists in Residence, Fiona Orr, Christine Sage-Marsh and Viktor Cebergs inspired the students. The most impressive feature this year was the large wooden piece created by chainsaw sculptor, Viktor Cebergs on the Tait Forecourt. From a huge tree stump he fashioned a magnificent sculpture, Pegasus Rising, which is now located near the Austin Gray Centre. Mr D Andrews

Autumn The wind shifts the leaves As they fall to the ground Orange, red and yellow, Mustard, maroon and brown. Dew's on the earth Like a carpet drenched and wet, Bringing in a lovely day from sunrise to sunset. By Elizabeth Wood, Year 5

he Federation Festival involving hundreds of students, many staff, countless parents and friends, complex logistics and four days of

events, was undeniably one of the most ambitious events that the College has ever undertaken.

The Festival began on Wednesday 9 May with the Art Show, organised by the OGCA Committee and officially opened by distinguished Old Collegian artist and author, Robert Ingpen ('50). It was attended by a nurrk ber of guests who moved from there to a lantern light tour of the six satellite productions, led by a group of Year 11 Drama student guides. Then came, after a short interval, the play, Chips. Every group had a different experience according to the role played by their guides, all of whom were archetypal characters from Australia's history The program was repeated each evening and performed over three nights. In all, there were six performances of Chips, but many, many more of the shorter segments. Little wonder some students looked exhausted as they attended their normal classes during the day! The satellites were "The Timeless Land 1788" in the aquatic centre - a spectacular sound and light experience (with Senior School students) created by Norm Stanley from Narana Creations; "Gone Bush 1855", where the audience enjoyed corned beef and damper (with or without mustard) and an old fashioned singalong at the Austin Gray Centre (with Middle School students); and "Down the Local 1898" - Wettenhall House room converted into a tavern frequented by a number of disreputable types (Years 9 and 10) who discussed politics while barmaids dispensed ginger beer and cheese. The Dining Hall was transformed into "The Melbourne Club" where the issues surrounding Federation were debated fiercely (Year 9),

while in"A Nation is Born 1901", Campbell House and Middle School students re-created the opening of the first Federal Parliament as Tom Roberts captured the scene on canvas. "The Saturdee Matinee 1921" combined the screening of the winners of the short film competition in the Elliott Theatre, (complete with popcorn machine), with Hollywood actresses (Year 10) vying for attention and fame next door - in contrast to the scene outside on the lawn, where croquet and cards formed a more genteel expression of Saturday afternoon recreation. Finally, the College chapel was the lovely setting for "A Tribute to Opera 1901", which provided a most enjoyable demonstration of the talents of both students and staff from the Music Department and celebrated the illustrious memory of Dame Nellie Melba in particular. "Chips", which was written by English teacher Mrs Julie Gainey and then work-shopped by the Year 12 Theatre Studies students, gave audiences a realistic snapshot of contemporary life - parenthood, growing up, families, relationships, and the issues faced by teenagers and their parents. The subject matter was serious (and sometimes confronting), but the play was mainly very amusing and the acting, by both our junior and senior drama students, superb. Woven into the play was a series of songs performed with sparkling energy by a ten-piece band of talented student musicians, led by staff member David van Elst. The emergence of this group proved to be one of the highlights of the Festival. Earlier in the week Campbell House students had enjoyed dress up day sand school activities and games of one hundred years ago and a Middle School Assembly on the 9 May saw all students up to Year 6 presented with special commemorative medallions,

provided by the Centenary of Federation Committee, by guest speaker Robert Ingpen and the Principal, Or Pauline Turner. On Saturday 12 May, a colourful Sports Pageant was mounted around scheduled APS sport in the morning (all 1 st games being played against Geelong Grammar), a marvellous mini-Carnival, and the annual Grammar vs College 1st XVIII football match in the afternoon, with the OGs Perpetual Trophy as the victor's prize. Unfortunately for College, the game was won in the dying minutes by Geelong Grammar, after a very exciting and evenly matched contest. The festival's finale on Saturday night was a black tie gala dinner, where 320 guests, determined to enjoy themselves, followed the piper and squeezed into the beautifully decorated Morrison Hall for an evening of feasting and dancing. The "toast to the College" was made by Old Collegian and Past Parent Mr Ken Nail ('37), who is also a former Foundation President and former member of the School Council. Other important features of the Federation Festival were the Archival Exhibition in the Cloisters Gallery, reflecting our own history and the Alfred Deakin Travelling Exhibition in the Library, which was focused on the "Father of Federation", Alfred Deakin. The Federation Festival will be long-remembered, and. rightly so! Its compelling' quality touched most areas of the school and dictated much of what happened during the term. It was a true festival of the arts, involving students from Campbell House, Middle School and Senior School, teachers, parents and friends, in a wonderfully inclusive, cooperative and creative learning experience. Mr Shane Brennan, the Festival Project Manager, Ms Deb Hynes, Head of Drama and the Festival Organising Committee deserve very special

acknowledgement for the part they played in making the Festival such a resounding success. The sponsors of the Festival underwrote its ultimate financial success. Particular thanks go to Allabout Tours and Travel, our major sponsor, African Wildlife Safaris, who donated first prize in the Festival raffle and to Freedom Furniture.

Night of the Notables

Dr George Betts, an eminent American educator and researcher believes that autonomous learning is a highly desirable component of a talented child's learning. In Term 4, students from Years 7 and 8 have elected to be part of this program. Each student chose an eminent person and completed an " in depth" study of their life. A scenario depicting an important event in each notable's life was presented to the group and a detailed autobiography written.

Steven Herrick, performance poet, 'wowed' students from Years 4-8 with beautifully rehearsed performances of his contemporary poetry. He was most interactive with his young audiences, delighting them by including them in his poetic scenarios. John Nicholson, a Children's Book Council shortlisted information text writer, showed an inside view of the illustrator's world with detailed revelations of his techniques when sketching buildings, bridges and landscapes. Many students were able to work with him on perspective sketches, learning techniques in minutes through John's direction which he had personally devised when he was working as an architect. Early Learning Centre students were immersed in an interactive wildlife experience. Fittingly for this Federation year, the animals were Australian natives, and the ELC children were given the opportunity to go beyond looking, to touch and to hold! Each animal was displayed and discussed , then viewed closely,

Year 9 Camps - Wollangarra

Six Year 9 classes escaped from school for a week without timetables, watches, electricity and pollution. Wollangarra fosters the ideas of self-reliance, teamwork, fun and concern for the environment and our students came back to the city with a new view of themselves and their place in the world. The enthusiastic Wollangarra staff became both friends and guides to the College students and thanks must go to Teresa Peterson, Beth Chamberlain, Aleks Svasas, Dannica Shaw and Co-Directors Stuart Wonson and Joey Long, for their energy and inspiration. The core of the week is a three day expedition and this year our groups walked in the heat along the Macalister River, faced icy winds and rain on the Wellington Plains and experienced the dramatic alpine scenery of Bryce's Gorge. The opportunity to return to Wollangarra to help with projects aimed at preserving the mountains was taken up by a number of students in their holidays. Thanks to Mr Tim Parkes, Mr Roger Smith, Mrs Chris Lean, Mrs Leonie Brown, Mr Phil Taylor and Reverend Richard Franklin who accompanied groups to Wollangarra this year.

The games we played and the jobs we did,

It is a great delight

They are covered with sticks

Sitting round the camp fire,

The tents are small and squashy

The friendly people, the vegie garden,

They are hard to put up right

The showers on the hill,

Debating

The 2001 debating season saw a very enthusiastic band of students argue, persuade, dramatise and humour their point. Members have increased to include 10 teams. A debating season would never be the same without the bus rides out to Geelong Grammar and the stops at "Maccas" to calm the nerves. Upon arrival, the anxious moments waiting for a missing team member and the challenge of finding the right room at the right time in the dark at Grammar are also a significant part of the debating season. Topics are either given in advance with the opportunity to research and prepare, or are silent topics where the teams are only given the topic one hour prior to the

competitive and committed side which led to some very close games with the top contenders. The best game of the season was against the undefeated Premiers of 2001, St Kevin's. Our courage and hunger for the ball was unmatched, resulting in an extremely competitive game until the very end. As this year's team is a very young one, with only three Year 12 students, our success is exciting for the future. Thanks must go to head coach Alan McKee and Mr Wood for their dedication to the team. Their priceless knowledge of the game and ability to pass on their expertise contributed to our success. This year may be the beginning of a more committed and enthusiastic team with greater skills and hopefully, more success in the future. Jonathon Friend - Captain

Year 9 A 2001 shaped up to be a very successful year for the Year 9 footballers. At the start of the season, training under Mr Clifford's guidance seemed challenging, but it all paid off during the year, with our fitness and ball skills improving significantly. With a great start to the season that saw us losing only one of our first 5 matches, we were promoted to A grade at the start of Term 3. This was a shock and we now doubted our talent, but as our first games got underway, we found it was a bonus to be playing at a higher level. We were fortunate to have a strong team who were enthusiastic as the effort we put in showed on the scoreboard with 2 losses and 8 wins. We felt a sense of achievement, which could not have been done without teamwork and composure during the year. All the boys are to be congratulated for their efforts. A big thank-you must go to Mr Clifford for assisting us in all areas of our football. I know the boys appreciated it immensely, and we wish the best of luck with his future Year 9 footballers.

Girls' Inter B The 2001 Inter-B girls were a new and justifiably inexperienced side, with ten of our thirteen members new to the sport. With two consecutive byes and an opposition forfeit at the very beginning of the season, the Inter-Bs were a little behind on experience but not lacking in determination. From our first match as a close 0-1 loss, we improved enormously to pull off some well-deserved wins against some tough opposition. Evidently the newcomers had brought some exceptional natural talent, for immediately ensuing that first match downfall, the Inter-B's unexpectedly managed two consecutive wins over Ivanhoe and Geelong Grammar, followed by a hardfought draw to Yarra Valley Grammar in the rain and mud at the Prep. School pitch. Despite missing mouthguards, synthetic grazes, forfeits, cold, injuries, and mud, through the course of the season we pulled off three fantastic wins, a draw, two less fortunate results, and a fantastic game of teamwork and determination whilst three players down against Grammar. Credit must be given to all the Inter-B girls who maintained their uncanny enthusiasm throughout the entire season. Congratulations to the whole team, which included fellow halfbacks Hannah (Vice-Captain.) and Catherine; forwards Kate, Cath, Holly, Melanie, Rebecca, Brandy; and defenders Fiona, Bee, Daphne, and Jackie.

I would like to thank all College athletes for their efforts and wish those returning next year every success. Brydie Meek - Captain of Athletics. Brydie Meek has made a substantial contribution to College athletics over the past six years. She has represented the school in the shot put, long jump, 400 metres and sprint relays and been a member of two College athletics premiership teams. She has won the shot put at the Combined Sports each year from U 14 to Open and this year threw a personal best on APS day. Brydie has been a fine role model for all College athletes in her training and competitive spirit. T P Parkes - Teacher in Charge of Athletics.

BOYS' ATHLETICS The 2001 Athletics season has been another rewarding one for all College boys involved. Although we fell short of the eighth placing achieved at last year's APS Sports, the efforts of the whole squad were no less significant and there were strong performances in each age group. Tremendous team spirit was a feature of the boys' approach to training and competition and the application and dedication of our athletes ensured their improvement. The achievement of fourteen personal bests on the final Saturday in October was an indication of the boys' commitment and effort. In the five weeks before the Term 3 holidays, the

squad competed at Landy Field against Geelong Grammar, Kardinia International College, Carey, Caulfield and Wesley. Although the weather was often
