r Aly, Dr Seward, members of Council, parents, staff, students and members of The Geelong College community. It is my pri\ilege in this brief report to reflect on the progress the College has made oyer the course of 2009.

M

\\ 'hen I look back over this year, two core responsibilities the College has discharged, in what has turned out to be a demanding social and educational environment, stand out clearly to me. The first is the absolutely critical role the school assumed in respect of the health, safety and well-being of our students as a variety of challenges emerged. In a sense, for us, the scene was set when 2009 began in a blaze of heat causing disastrous bushfires to flare up in different parts of the state, classes to be cancelled on the first two days of school and sport to be called off as temperatures soared over 40 degrees. Conditions gradually returned to normal but the experience gave us a

jolt and set in motion reviews of our crisis communication processes and extreme weather policies relating to the academic and sporting programs. \Ye sensed that the ground had shifted, that a new situation of uncertainty had emerged, for which we needed to develop appropriate safety parameters within the school's broad risk management framework. The question of health and safety took on a more global form in Term 2 when so-called swine flu emanating from Mexico sparked widespread outbreaks, especially in Victoria, and threatened to disrupt our school operations. Policies had to be put in place to manage this situation and to plan for similar threats in the future. Avian flu and the SARS epidemic were too fresh a memory for us not to understand that such global clisease alerts have rapidly become a new norm. Term 3 provided a challenge of a different order -- managing the emotional and spiritual well-being of

• 2 •

our students and staff following the disturbing suicide of one of our Year 9 students, Taylall Mahon. Resources were put in place to support their needs, especially thos most closely affected, and a reassuring environment was created for students to raise questions and express their grief. Tot only students but parents felt particularly anxious in the wake of a number of well-publicised student suicides in Geelong. Specialist personnel were enlisted to assist but, interestingly, as was highlighted later by the head of the external counselling team, they served mainly to support our internal welfare team (teachers, Heads of I louse, School Counsellor and SpiriLual Coordinator) who had all responded with Lact and compassion. SubsequenLly, a community fOl'Wn devoted to promoting resiliency in our children and menLal healLh issues took place early in 1erm 4. where th need for teachers and fan1ilics La be encouraging, vigilanL and supportive in r lating Lo young people, whose vulnerabiliLies are of Len oncealed


and subject to exploitation, was highlighted again and again. In the light of calamities like this and challenges of a more general nature, such as social and family dislocation, our schools are increasingly becoming core social centres and the site of essential welfare-oriented services. A fourth more subtle set of challenges threatening the well-being of young people and which has been gathering strength over the years was also tackled front on by the school Hris year. I am speaking now of tlle cyber world which, while offering a wealtll of opportw.nties for learning and social neLworlilllg, has become invasive in many of our students' lives. IIelping sLudents Lo navigate it safely and to develop an acceptable moral compass has become a priority in thi school and we have twice enlisted the services of an acknowledged expert in Lhe field, Robyn Treyvaud, to assist staff, sLudenLs and parents to 1.mdcr Land and devise appropriaLe pracLices and policies. We also engaged a

leading drug and alcohol educator, Paul Dillon from Sydney, who uses positive psychology to help students realise that taking drugs or habitual drinking is not an obligatory norm of adolescence, and his follow-up forum for parents was invaluable. Beyond these more targeted welfare programs, I should mention the many time-honoured ways in wInch schools hl{e ours routinely help students to become connected, confident young people who are able to \vithstand tlle aggressions of modem living and flourish individually and collectively. Sport, drama, music-mal<ing, debating, camps, House activities, community service and cro s-cultural experiences, wInch form a very large part of what constitut a College education, have again this year afforded myriad oPPOltunities for students to gain viLal skills, acquire decent values and build up inlporLant socio-cultural competencies. These opportunities stand alongside the curriculum proper and help students dev lop into well-

rounded, balanced individuals. The recently introduced Fulfilling Lives programs, which expose our Year lOs to different communities and ways of living inside and outside Australia, testing their individual values and sense of being, have been a valuable addition to our offering, with an eyen more interesting line-up of programs for next year including expedition and service based experiences in Bomeo and Thailand. I warmly thank Senior School teachers for so willingly leading these important kinds of programs from which students derive both great enjoyment and enduring cultural and moral benefit. At tlle sanle time as we have attended Lo the well-being and personal growth of our students, the College ha continued to develop strongly as a learning organisation Uris year, "'lnch i.s the second core responsibility I w1sh to touch on today. I "ill report in detail to parents next January on Lhe educational irntiatives we have introduced in 2009 (including tile


ucces ful Regan Career cowlselling program) but it is important to clarify the sense of om most recent educational tim.lst in tins end-of-year address. To me, it can be sUilllnaTised by om greater focus on data collection and analysis to identify paJticular aJ'eas requiring attention, especially literacy acro the cmriculwn and in relation to external test and eXaJnination results. E.\.cellence is not aJl act but a habit. Aristotle suggested more thaJl two millennia ago, and tln chool i committed to enabling its teachers both to deyelop individually and embed best practice witllin tlleir subject areas. ,~.lld to encourage outstanding practice this year, we introduced an Exemplary Teacher A\yard "'hose recipients are also required to dewlop leaJning projects ""hich \\ill be of ongoing benefit to their colleagues and ultimately. of course. our students. Allied to tlns and further trengthening the knowledge and capacity of om staff is the :'laster of Education Studies program deliYered by Ballarat University ,,"hich ten of om teachers, who have been subsidi ed by the school, will complete this year. These Senior and Preparatory School teachers are to be commended for their intense dedication to their professional learning which has been pursued at considerable personal cost on top of their normal teaching load. I

should add U1at UnTe oU1er Collcge teacher ar eiU1cr working on, or will complete, a diIIerent i\iaster degree thi yeaJ'. TIns is a school conmntted to growth, development aJld c.'Ccellenc in teaching aJldlcaJ'lling. ~ lore tllaJl five yeaTS ago, when

the College \Vas preparing iLs first education plan, we aJlalysed several school scenarios put forward by the OrgaJ1isation for Economic Cooperation and Development which suggested that schools that would tlnive in the futme would probably go down one of two di tinctive pathways - either enacting a social, welfare and commw1ity chaJter or adopting more of a learning orgaJ1isation focus. I \yould suggest that the demands of the current social and educational conte,.'t require good schools to do both well and the fulfibnent of these two core roles is what this school will wholeheartedly pursue in the coming years. On a broader le\'el, it is important to highlight the federal government's determination that there be two major school priorities in the coming years: firstly, the implementation of a national curriculum beginning in 2011, ,,'hich educators around Australia agree may strengthen the quality of curriculum delivery overall; and secondly, transparency in reporting, with school performance data set to be posted online from

Ule end of this year. I \Vould like to comment on the latter developmenL today. Th current governmcnt in Canberra insists U1aL paJ'enLs want the abili ty Lo compaJ'e Ule results of sinlliar schools aJld UlaL it will be in a better position to assisL 'failing' schools once th e data become publicly availabl . However, as you may lmow, fuis push for traJlsparency and accountability has been widely resisted by teachers and principals across Australia, including in independent schools, who fear it will result in league tables which will 'name and shame' underperformers and seriously damage school commw1ities.

The implications of the national online report caJ'd will be far-reaching, I believe, and may change the way people think about schools and education in Australia. vVhat parents need to realise is that the data will present a narrow snapshot of school performance based essentially on testing atYears 3, 5,7 and 9 . It will not reflect the richness of the school experience which deals in LU'l.llleasmable intangibles such as the breadth of curriculum, quality of care, inculcation of values, personal grOwtll, co-curricular involvement and sense of commw1ity. It will report instead in bmeaucratic terms on literacy and numeracy at selected year levels and present senior secondary outcomes,


thank !VIr Mahon for capably assuming the role of Acting Principal during my sabbatical in Term 2. As you are aware, our Director of Community Relations and Development, Mrs Best, will be leaving in the new year. She has performed her complex and varied responsibilities in a highly professional and exemplary manner throughout the four years of her time \vith us and will be greatly missed by the whole school community. I also acknowledge the valuable role our Business Manager, Mr Findlay, has played in managing the business, financial and administrative centres of the school for more than six years and his loyal service to the College.

tertiary destinations, teacher qualifications, students' background and general attendance rates . 'Nhile it will in no way capture the totality of the educational expelience, comparisons between schools will be drawn and the media will inevitably delight in maloog ultimately damaging jUdgements. In Australia, we have thus far avoided the excesses of the English system of interschool ranloogs and the equally dubious testing and rankings of American public schools and it is a pity that this government has chosen to ignore the advice of many respected educators. I note, in conclusion, that the aclmowledged top education performer in the world, Finland, does not publish any data at all on its schools. It is important now to thank a number of people for the contribution they have made to the College's programs and iLs educational progress this year. First of all, I am graLeful to the academic staff for th ir d votion to Lbcir teaching and co-curricular responsibiliti and to the welfare

of the student body in general. They are called on to invest themselves in many different projects and the school is fortunate to have the services of a very talented and committed group of teachers, as the three College ViceCaptains made abundantly clear, in their own thankful terms, at our Valedictory celebrations last Friday. Three of our Senior School staff are leaving this year and I thank them warmly for their valuable contributions over varying periods of time: Mrs Ekkel after 22 years mainly as a teacher of French; NIl' Andrews after 18 years as part of the Austin Gray staff; and lVlrs 1 lcArthur after two, as IT teacher and Coordinator of E-Iearning. I am also very grateful to the members of my Executive team who have played important roles in ensuring the effective deliver.> of our programs and management of the multifaceted operations of the school. They have also brought invaluable assistance and support to me, as Principal, for which I thanl\. them sincerely. I especially

• 5 •

The Prefects and School Captains also deserve my particular thanks for their leadership of the student body this year. Vice-Captains, Caitlin Lamont, Harry Seward and Elliott Mann, and Captains, Kate Kittlety and Tom Molyneux, \\'ho have all given remarkable service which I am pleased to aclmowledge today. And nmv, as always on Speech Day, it is with great pride and pleasure that I announce our new school leaders. In 2009, Vice-Captains will be Fiona Barton and Richard Langham and the CoCaptains of the College will be Lyndall Watson and Nelson Wang. Please join me in congratulating these fine young people on their appointment. In conclusion, I would like to express my gratitude to the members of the College Council for their generous commitment to the school s affairs and especially thank the Chairman, Dr Hugh Seward, who has led Council v,rith distinction again this year. I am deeply grateful to him for his devotion to the advancement of the College and for his particular support of me in the execution of my duties as Principal of this fine school. Thank you all very much for your attendance at Speech Day 2009 and my best ""rishes to you for a safe and fulfilling holiday in the near future. Dr Pauline Turner Principal


s I reflect on t.he 2009 year 1 am genuinely heartened and excited by what I see. There have been some 'highs' and 'lows' throughout the year but I feel a sen e of optimism for the today and the future.

A

r extend my best \\ishes to allYear students for their move to the Senior School. I know that they will achie\'e great things in the future and the teachers at the Preparatory School will delight in tileir success. They haw gelled together and tile friendships, camaraderie and tile po itiw relationships established, as \\'ell as tile leadership that the Year 8 group has demonstrated, has been truly remarkable.

How we act, ho'" "'e behave, ho'" " 'e treat each other - "'ho "'e are - has an enormous impact on the culture and tone of our school. If we are reckless, disrespectful, ignorant or apathetic then our emTIonment can be a negative one, conversely if "'e act "ith respect, tolerance, understanding, compassion and killdness to each other then there is a corresponding gro,,'fu in the de\'elopment of a positive and caring emTIonment.

As Head of the Preparatory School my responsibilities include oversight of the Early Learning Cenb:e. r thank the Director of the ELC, Irs Ros :-lolyneux, for her outstanding work over fue last year. i\1r Chris Dinneen assumed the role of Director of Campbell House earlier this year and his appoinbnent was well received by students, parents and staff. Chris has had a fine year and r have enjoyed working closely with him ..

On the facility front the Commonwealth funded "Building the Education Revolution' projects of the Campbell House Library and the additional :\liddle School Gymnasium should be complete by early Term 2. These developments will further enhance the learning environment at the Preparatory School and provide greater flexibility for students and staff.

At fue ~ liddle School r am blessed to have two dedicated and loyal Deputy Heads in:\1rs Coral Turner and Ivlrs Leanne Russell. r thank them for their outstanding work, excellence and support this year. They have been wonderful. The Curriculum Coordinator of 7/8 and the English Coordinator, Dr Nlaryann Brown, has worked tirelessly in the pursuit of promoting excellence and best practice in the classroom and I thank the Director ofTeaching and Learning, Mrs Mary Mason as well as Area Leaders. Our Principal, Dr Pauline Turner, is absolutely and Lotally

The old adage 'a champion team will always beat a team of champions' certainly rings true and r believe that \ve have assembled a 'champion team' at the Preparatory School.

committed to The Geelong College. And I thank Pauline for the trust fuat she has bestowed upon me.

r appreciate the care, genuine concern and commibnent of the teaching staff to the development and wellbeing of the students. Thank you for your passion and your great work throughout 2009. To all departing staff, r wish you all the very best for your future. Parents, staff and students are all partners in tile educational journey and r would like to thank the Preparatory School Parents' Association Executive and members for their wonderful contribution to College life this year. Well done to the 2009 president, Mrs Lyrule Gorell, for her excellent organisation andleadersh.ip. To conclude I leave you with a quote by William Allin thaL I believe encapsulates our journey.

"Education is not tile answer to tile C[Uestion. Education is Ule meaDS Lo tile answer to aJJ C[Ucstion ."

he conLenLs of this ediLion of Pegasus reveal an impressive array of opporLuniLies that CoUege sLudenLs bave emJJraced WiUl vigo ur and enLhusiasm over Lhe course of Lhis year. Th e pages do no L111 rely record a series of calendar highlighLs, but celebraLe the experiences that enrich the learning of Lbose who engage wiLh Lhem Lo Lhe [ullesL exLenL. The Lypical busy Senior School student combines COllT ework, classes and homework wiLh an exLensive sporting program and a diverse range of I-louse and Scll00l activities to encourage specialisation, extension and excellence. The countless slories and

images summarised here show tlle commitment that so many of our students devote towards the Senior School program. A major theme of pathways emerged this year, through a restructured Careers program and associated events designed to provide students with greater insight into future options and more responsibility for decisions they malze. A more structured regime of testing and advice at strategic times was complemented by a remodelled Careers Expo and a successful series of themed breakfasts to encourage individual networking and the sharing of vocational ideas. Year 12s in paIticular benefilted from targeted advice prior Lo key selection dates Uu-oughout the year. Also embedded within Ule curriculum were numerous xcursions, neldtrips and sLudy tours relaLing to bOUl core and elective disciplines. In addiLion, the I louse TuLorial have extended program lo include as is Lance for LudenLs wi Lh sLudy skills, paI-Licularly prior

Lo exan1inaLions, cyller-safely and guidance Lhrough lhe important process of subject selecLion . Complementing the rigorous academic program is an exciting program of co-curricular activiLies where students learn new skills, refine exisLing ones and co-operate wilh peers to optimise tean1 performance. AL the various sporting levels participanLs have Lrained and compeLed to their own potential regardless of individual expertise or competence. We have enjoyed numerous musical reciLals at evening performances and weekly assemblies, as well as feaLured events such as the marvellous Foundation Concert and

Carols by Candlelight. The Drama students have also performed \vithin year level productions, theYear 12 version of TIle Crucible a highlight for Term 1, and of course the School production of Peter Pan entertained everyone later in the year. Similarly the innovative compilation of an artistic video Artube 09 dUling Arts Week, the fantastic VCE Art Show early in Term 4 and the screening of films produced by our senior I\ leclia students have showcased the creative talent that has developed over time. Beyond the School there have been opportunities for students at all levels to in1merse themselves in a variety of physical andleaI-ning conte;.,..-i.s. For Year 9s it may have been enjoying the outdoors in cenLral Victoria or in I\ lelbourne extending their depth of understanding of a rlli1ge of disciplines. Similarly some Year 10 students travelled overseas or interstaLe Lo experience very different cultures, others fo tered meaningful contact with tile rich ethnic diversity within our localaI'ca and some

acquired new skills that would then be applied in Community Service activities. With renovations to main buildings at i'vIokborTce completed, various groups have also been able to use this Wensleydale site for various learning and socialisation programs. The annual trip to Shalom Christian College in Townsville and the popular Revolutions tour to Paris and Russia attracLed considerable interest again this year. Some annual collecLive events help to bind respective year levels and the Senior School together. Some of these are friendly wholeschool compeLiLions such as House S\virnming, Athletics, Cross-country

or l\lusic, whilst year levels gather for theYeaI' 9/10 social or the mid-year formal for senior students. This year, regrettably, two unexpected and tragic circumstances saw the whole school unite; in Term 1 when we rallied to support bushfire victims and in Term 3 when we required support from each other. On both occasions the yery best aspects of our community came to the fore. Whilst the breadth of expeliences has always been a feature of the College, the way in which so many students become actively involyed is probably of greater signifiCaI1ce, a it is tlu-ough concerted effort rather tllan superficial paIticipation that genuine contribution and consequent achievemenL is attained. Finally, we wish to acknowledge the conscientious way in which members of staff ha\'e made this year so succes ful: it is Lhrough Uleir collective efforts that these amazing opportunities haw become available for our students.


t the end of last year the College, like the ~'hole country, ~'as facing the great uncertainty of the Global Financial Crisis. But that GFC, like our local GFC, deliyered far better results than we anticipated. Australia has been cushioned from the expected severe fallout. The College also has produced some surprising outcomes with rising enrolments after a minor drop, many year levels in the Prep nm,- at maximum levels, and a prospect of a full Boys' Boarding House next yearthe first time in many years. \Ve have been cautious and disciplined in our budgeting but still encounter rising costs that continue upward pressure on our fees.

A

The College Council, during this year, has focused on maintailling this careful fiscal approach, but also worked steadily at improving features of our Governance to enable us to operate more effectively in our role of overseeing the administration of the school and future policy direction.

The niting Church , with which the school has been associated since 1977 , has recently begun a process of building better relations with its affiliated schools through the development of a charter, and the Council has been happy to be part of this process. \Ve are now discussing the appropriate interactions between our two organizations that will benefit both parties, are relevant to our community needs, and appropriate to the role of the Church in the 21 ,[ Century. \\ e are also beginning the task of re drafting our Constitution which is also closely linked to Lhe Uniting Church of Australia. Earlier this year we welcomed Professor Hugh Collins, the former :, laster of Ormond College at Lhe University of :Vlelbourne, to the College Council, and he brings a wealLh of experience and wisdom to our board. He is the 3rd former Master of Ormond to serve on the College Council after Sir John McFarland early last century and Dr Davis McCaughey,

• 8 •

who was also a former Governor of Victoria. I am grateful to all my fellow Council Members for their active contribution to tl1e guidance of the College. I thank Mr. Daniel Mal10n for his leadership during Term 2 while Dr. Turner was on sabbatical leave, and I pcuticularly acknowledge Dr. Turner's continued strong and visionary leadership of the College. As I review what The Geelong College offers our students I have been impressed by our Department of Community Rela tions marketing theme -" Opportunities" -and I believe this is a vital Lheme for this school. It fils well wiLh our seLof values upon which we base our Educational program . The Jist of values attest to our desire to noL only promoLe personal excellence and fulfillmenL, buL also Lo emphasise the imporLance of fanlliy and community; understanding, Lolerance and Christian principals. We strive to provide an educational experience Lhat bOLh embraces


academic excellence and offers a broad education beyond the classroom. This principle has its origins deeply imbedded within the school's history. As I have been reading the drafts of the commissioned History ofThe College, to be published to celebrate our 150 lh anniversary in 201 1, I have learnt a great deal aJ)out the aspirations of past school Principals and College Councils. From the days of George Morrison tile school promoted botb academic excellence and an active co-curricular program. This was enhanced by Sir Francis Rolland in the 1930's witb innovations such as the House of Guilds and tile Exploration Society; and post Second World War Principals successively added layers to what is now a very rich program of sport, music, technical pursuits and social service activities. Why is this important to us today? I believe this allows the College to fill an increasing need in our society. I, like many parents today, are concerned about our society's drift from a" sense of community" to the current " worship of the individual" with its focus of self. We live in a time where celebrity is supreme, tbe drive to seek fame and fortune is paramount, and tbe world of I Pods, mobile phones and tbe Internet appear to create isolation rather than cohesion in society. This is taking its toll on tbe mental health and physical well being

of our youth. But what the school provides that can counter tilat drift are Opportunities - opportunities to move beyond tbe self. Our programs are about groups working together, about co - operation and tolerance. Most of our SpOlt is in teams. Commitment to a rowing crew, a netball team, a hockey team or on tile football field means the individual must sacrifice the focus on tbe individual for tbe good of tile team, train hard and to understand team work to achieve the best team performance. The same commitment is needed in an orchestra, a band, or in producing a play, and our House system similarly promotes a sense of community ,vitbin a community, where participation, support, and consideration for others are honored. While sport, music and drama promote a spirit of team work, anotber area where the College fills a gap in our need to re balance tbe drift to tbe Individual and promote tolerance and understanding, is through our OUll'each programs. As we live our fortunate and relatively privileged lives, how do we demonstrate to our children this is not tbe domain of every Australian? Can we also show tbem tbat joy and satisfaction can come from interactions tbat develop understanding of otber, less privileged sections of our diverse society? Among our most desperate communities are tbe Indigenous people of Australia,

• 9 •

and our Outreach program's work with Shalom College in Queensland and the local Narana Creations, togetber with some of our fuliilling lives programs, expose our students to those communities in order to develop a greater understanding of tileir complex issues and needs. Another group in desperate need are our Refugee communities, who can only succeed in bringing diversity or richness to Australian society if they can successfully integrate and gain acceptance. Our programs in this direction are embryonic, but these groups may provide future opportunities for our students to understand the broad world around us. Hopefully the understanding gained from these experiences can bring knowledge, because with knowledge a greater degree of tolerance grows. I mention these opportunities in sport, in arts, in outreach, not just to provide a rationale for the College's concept of a" broad education", but with the hope that our students may embrace all that the school has to offer. To those students leaving the College, I hope tbat tbe opportunities tbe school has given you serve you well in the bright future you have ahead of you. To those students continuing with us, grasp your opportunities - your life will be richer in many ways.

Dr Hugh Seward Chair


s Captains, it has been particularly pleasing for us to \\ilness the continued growth of the College this year. 2009 has not been an easy year for anyone by any sb.'elch of the imagination. With the -Global Financial Crisis' and the dreaded"S\\1ne Flu-', this has not been a time for the faint-hearted.11lankfully, the College's experience-based education is prO\iding students with the skills they "ill need to be able to face challenges such as these, and the others that they will no doubt have to face in the future. An education at the Geelong College is more than just classroom-based education; it involves exposing students to situations that \\ill allow them to develop into well-rounded and free-thinking individuals.

A

\Ve have considered it particularly important this year to foster relationships \vithin the schooL This includes between Year levels \vithin, and also between, campuses. As a Prefect group, we have travelled to the Preparatory School to both prepare students for a transition to the Senior School, and to encourage

relations between all members of the College community. Continuing this theme of relationship building, a project of particular pertinence for us has been ti1e formation of the APS Foundation, in collaboration with the Captains of all the APS member schools. As a group, we decided to look beyond the purely competitive relationships on the sporting field, and commence a new era of worlting together towards a common, chatitable goal. Providing assistance to less privileged educational institutions is one aspect of \videning our vision to encompass issues affecting our "communities" on a local, national and international scale. As we pass through the historic gates on Talbot Street for the last Lime, we can feel confident that every lesson learned, from the first day of ELC 3 to the final day ofYear 12, will assist students to achieve future success in anyone of the expanding range of possible careers. There are of course many people who have provided us with outstanding assistance throughoul the course of this

• J0 •

yea:t~ First of all, the 15 Prefects who have been admirable leaders and contributed greatly to tl1e running of tl1eir individual portfolios. We must also pat-ticulatiy thank theVice-Captains of the College for 2009; Caitlin Lamont, Harry Seward and Elliott Mann, who have supported us a great deal this year. Ms Gill has been an excellent mentor for all Prefects, providing us with invaluable help on the many occasions that it has been required. Finally, we must thank Dr Tumer for giving us the opportunity to lead The Geelong College in 2009. Her support has been unquestionable, and very much appreciaLecLIt has been an absolute pleasure on our behalf to represent this school, a remarkable establishmenl steeped in Lradilion, of which all students are now a part.

We would like give our very best wish to alJ students aL the College in 2010, and remember: "Sic Jtur Ad Astra" - Thus is the Way to thc SlaTs.

Refugee poem

Refugees

Refugee poem

\\ nen man is at "'ar, government decisions and interventions are poor;

TIley have a sad life, it can drive them mad.

I pull away my plastic covers in my tent

People became displaced, food is scarce, and shelter destroyed.

We try to help but all we can do is yelp.

The sun shines in my eyes

It takes years for the situation to be addressed and aid to be deployed.

They try to make a better life but cry then die.

People's lives are ruined and emironments destroyed,

They run from the war out the door to the shore.

liees and vegetation are lost and after a war the landscape is void.

To catch a boat that probably won't float.

It must be deyastating to be a refugee, no home, familiar things or family.

If they arrive alive they're still unsafe.

Yet they keep on trying, to survive "ith courage and hope Praying that one day their life will repair and they will be able to cope.

Emma Blake-Hahnel 7N

They roam looking for a home. They need food but have no clue. They try to steal but that would be rude. 111ree years later.

Every morning is like a reminder Saying, you're never going to leave I see other people around me People with no legs, no arms and illnesses People worse off than me Sometimes I wonder Why, why did it have to be us? Why did it have to happen to anyone? I see the little kids Oblivious to the fact that they might never leave

The fear and tears have disappeared.

Oblivious to everything around them while they play in the mud.

It seems weird but they are out of strife and can now live their life.

After several strenuous practices, harmoniously polished voices and tunes of great musicality could be heard \\'I1ilst walking past Calvert in Term 1. This perhaps was not due to our fabulous rendition of Does J'our "'dother Know enhanced by Dylan Spence's valiant efforts, but significantly due to our talented Small Group lead by Torn .\lolyneux, Bec Carman and Jess '\lackay. They won over the judges, helping us to gain 2nd place. Cross-Country was yet another highlight in our sporting calendar this year \\ith us finishing a close 4th, substantially assisted by our long distance super stars, Erica Robinson and the Saunders duo, Ryan and Josh. Badminton Sa\"V JeffYeung and Tristan Tan come out to shine with Annie .\liddlemiss and Stephanie Taylor assisting in some hard fought wins.

The last day of Term saw House j\ lusic, where our large group tried to save the environment with the Captain Planet theme song. The Small Group got the entire school intoxicated with The ViTJne Song.

In Week 7, goggles were dusted off for the first major House event, Swimming.

The BBQ raised an amazing $350 for Wildlife Victoria,

At the start of Term 2, endurance was the key factor for House Cross-Country. With outstanding efforts from Harry Mann, the Walmsley twins, Richard Langham and Loren Lane, Coles attained a respectable 6th place. Basketball was a highlight for Andre Garcey and I athan Maxwell as they took to the court to take out the boys' Basketball competition.

The effort of all students has been overwhelming considering the ups and downs faced over the course of the year. The death ofTaylah :\lahon of Year 9 came as a shock to us all, but we are honoured to have known and been a part of a truly amazing girl's time as a student in Keith; and we know she will be sorely missed.

T

Keith House has been long recognised for their charitable contributions amongst the community and again this rear the House cemented its place as the Service House. The year began \vith two extra days of holidays due to the severe heat which was relaxing, but also a reminder of the harsh environment in which we live. After the treacherous conditions that resulted in Black Saturday, we saw the opportunity to become involved in trying to make life easier for those

affected by the fires. Again the House with the heart showed its caring attitude through the running of the Keith Relief concert in Term 1, raising over S3000 for the Bushfire Appeal. Thanks must go to the whole House for being involved. H owever the attitude did not stop there, we again got behind the 40 H our Famine with the organisation of the activity coming from Year l Os George Curnow and Emily Profitt. Despite the busy role we played in helping others, the H ouse's performances in all events this year must not go without. mention. After a successful start to the year \vith the Year lOs taking out the Volleyball, S\virnming was soon underway but it proved not to be our strongest suit. However, the overall attitude and palticipation was great. Special mention must go to Sarah Guthrie in Year 11 for putting in strong performances in her events, and Sam MCLean for taking on the dreaded 200 m Freestyle event.

House Music this year was a great event with the performance of Help by the Beatles. Keith worked together hitting the right notes to surprise the audience with an act worthy of note. Thanks to Coco Cover, Anthea O'Brien and Joelan Jeffreys for ensuring the event ran smoothly. Cross-Country was another event not to be taken lightly \-vith all all-round committed attitude on the day. The House recorded some impressive individual performances; notably those of Eliza Cumow, Jen Cleary and Annabelle Wilson's with their impressive individual Age group wins .

With the summer activities out of the way, the winter sports proved a huge hit.

e in ;, 1cArthur House started this year '>\'ith such determination you'd think there had been a jail break. House S,nmmmg was our first whole House competition and our endurance ,,·as e\"'ident with all e\'ents being filled and in taking out 1st place; not a bad start for our com'icts and inmates.

W

Our new Year 9s slotted in perfectly to our House \\'ith some great participators. The Year 12s and their buddies enjoyed some activities in the sun of Term 1 and finished their bonding ,,'ith icy poles and other treats enjoyed by all. l\Ietallica and some True Believing brought us back together for another fantastic whole House event, ;'vlusic. Our big group practices of I'm a believer paid off while our Small Group's limited practice luckily pushed us over Lhe line to end Term 1 as House ?\ lusic Champions. This was a wonderful effort by all and well deserved, with standout performances by new girls Ellie ;VlcEvoy and Lucy Campbell.

A bakery stall of goodies helped raise S380 for R elay fOT L ife. Although the event was cancelled due to the weather, our contributions in planning and the numbers ready to attend were significant, \,'ith e\'eryone's efforts truly commendable. The whole of Deakin Uni was blown over by our presence, and there are still pieces of debris to prove it! Cross-Country was looking to be a tough competition against Shannon, considering their gruelling training sessions with 11r Donovan, b ut once again our sheer determination and House camaraderie took us to victory. \ Ve had solid efforts across all Year levels with many Year 9, 10, 11 and 12 students placing in the top twenty and these achievers supplied us once more with donuts ... and how sweet they were. We had quite deal of success in other House sports allowing each Year level to prove that we in McArthur have what it takes. It also demonstra ted that team of differenLYear levels were

• 52 •

great at mixing and contributing together. Another hearty mention must be given to all those who stepped up to the plate, not knowing the exact rules of what they might be playing, but pulling out gallant efforts game after game, round after round. As the pressures of midyear exams dropped, the Year 12s had more time to sit dO\vn and have a Burger Inc lunch with their buddies again, maloog sure they had truly settled into Senior School and more importantly, McArthur. And it was clear that they had. During Term 3 roll call a t I-louse Assembly became longer with several overseas visitors from France, Germany and Japan, all helping enrich our I louse with diversiLy. We celebrated \'lith our annual House Party as a way of catching up before Lhe Year 12s left and to try out our general knowledg in th Trivia compeLition. As Term 3 drew La a close, the finish lines we were crossing were a t HouseALhletics where our


nerdy boys and girls from McArthur pushed Lhemselves on the track and excelJ d a LfieJd evenLs. Even as we were Jowly falling La the lower end of Lhe score bocu:d , some inclividual ell'orLs rose La Lhe Lop wiLh many competing in new evenLs. As Term 4 began iL wa time [or us to farewell McArthur which has moved us from nalveYear 9s to sLriving and successful Year 12s. Our experience would not have been enjoyaJ)le without the House Tutors; Ms Clarke, Mr aylor, Mr K-T, Mrs Hallows, NIl' Thacker and Ms Guest, who has b een with us for all fOUT years . Inexpressi])le thanks go to Mrs Smith, OUT I-lead of I-louse, although there

have been Limes when we haven't liked being encouraged into an event or 3, she is there every step of Lhe way organising and running this House as smoothly as it has been over Lhe years. Thank you all for making OUT job so very easy. Thanks to everyone for making OUT experience in McArthUT one thaL all of the Year 12s will remember forever. Go McArthUT. 1 icholas Kovacev and

This aside, everyone in :\ 1cLean can feel satisfied that we have given 110% in every activity.

The year began with a splash, \\·ith a creditable performance in Swimming, strengthened by dominant performances from OUT Year 10 sporting superstar Addy Dunkley-Smith and theYear 12 veteran Chris Lau as well as the talent of our up and coming Year 9 group. Tennis followed with an equally impressive domination as we served it up to the opposition and away with some gallant victories. Our House Music performance amazed the Senior School, and

although we came a""ay with a 4 th placing, no one will forget the

Coldplay's The Scientist performed by our talented Small- Group led by the incredible voice of Alex DixonTrigg. Our Big Group song, the Beach Boys' Get Around was also a great team effort; all our hard work in rehearsals paid off in an excellent execution of the song. ~ lany thanks go to allYear 12 ":\1cLeanites" for standing up as leaders to get the job done.

009 has pro\'ed to be a quietiy successful year for i-iorrison. \\'e kicked off with a fljing start in the first of the 'Big 4', House Swimming. Outstanding performances from Jack Kershaw, Eliza Scott, Samantha Suendermann, along with the positive le\'el of participation from the rest of the House enabled us to achieve a very commendable 3rd place. This result can really be a reflection of our whole year. Although not the strongest of Houses or the largest, our desire for success and our determination always saw us up there with our rivals.

2

Such characteristics also lead us to a 3rd place in Athletics and a 4th in Cross-Country. The always entertaining House Music competition saw '\lorrison perform Pink Floyd's, Another Brick in the Wall and our talented Small Group did a rendition of Kn.ights of Cydonia by i-luse, ably led by Chris Skoglund and Joshua Hay. Our enthusiasm in the event cannot be overlooked as

we attempted to follow up last year's stunning 1st place. Such results unfortunately were not achieved as another 3rd place was obtained. However, with the musical talent we leave behind in the H ouse with musicians such as Joe Foley, Jack H urley and Kris Verfurth, it is only a matter of time before our next victory is achieved. As for the minor events, success

and donuts came hard and fast as 1st placings were recorded in many events. In girls Soccer the talent of the younger years shone through for an overall victory; House FuLsal saw an incredibly exciting finish, and what can be said for Water Polo? With the addition of our German import David Wachmann, we blew the competiLion 'out of the water' in a runaway final . 2nd places were also recorded in boys Basketball and Debating along wiLh a 2nd in Junior etball.Young gun Sophie Brand proved her talent in this event. Without the participation of the whole I-louse throughout our

• 56 •

sporting calendar, such results could never have been achieved, and vve are proud to say we did not place 8th in any competition.

In Morrison, however, not everything depends upon our performance in House sporting events. Each Year level participated in a tree planting session along the banks of tile Barwon River during lunch and Tutorials. The highly successful program has proven to be beneficial for the environment, but had also educaLed members of the House on what simple things we can do to make a dilierence. Cakes, cakes an d more cakes: our tasty bakery stall proved an ultimate success for our sponsor child from World vision. We raised over $300 for Lhis cause Ll1J:ough our bake sale aL athletics day.

2009 comes to an end, the students of Shannon House can reflect on their achievements with a sense of satisfaction. Whilst on our perpetual journey for 'Cronk glory', Shannon recorded some gallant performances that showed the true nature of a Shannon Knight. Fiercely determined and ready to race, the House sports season began with Swimming. Boasting a strong team including many superstars such as Sam Phillips, Campbell MacDonald and Tom Perkins, Shannon's performance saw us already s\vimming away from the other Houses with a very close 3rd place overall.

A

We continued to dominate in the minor sports with Laura Jelfs leading the Badminton team to a convincing win. Our experienced cricketers, George Chisholm and Campbell Bishop managed to annihilate the competition with ease, and began to cement Shannon's status as strong contender for the Cronk trophy.

Our impressive start to the year was al\\'ays going to take a slight detour \\'hen we reached House i\Iusic. However, showing what could be achieved with a little bit of hard work and determination the House music campaign saw Shannon improve outstandingly on their previous result of 8th to this year's equal 7th. The effort put in by all students was unquestionable, but our lack of musical finesse eventually caught up with us. Having put in long hours of rehearsals the Shannon knights went into the performance with great confidence and enthusiasm again sho\ving the optimistic outlook Shannon displays. The young group, (including Ebony Westman, Audrey Moore, Emily Serle, Lachie Serle, Sonia Campanaro, Laura Stekelenburg and Fraser Russell) who performed Love SLary are to be congratulated for their ouLslanding efforts and hopefully they will develop inlo a very competitive group.

• 58 •

\tiThen Cross-Country came around, it was time for our new recruits, the Year 9s, to show the College what Shannon was made of, with places recorded by Tom Rogan and Alex Shannon; they put the I-louse in good stead to place us 2nd overall. After Cross-Country 1st places became elusive for the Shannon Knights, but they were still able to record the minor places with ease. With a 2nd placing in Netball and Basketball and a 3rd placing in Waterpolo, we finally managed to grasp 1st place in the very competitive Soccer competition. James Rho, Trent Tomkins, Aaron Jones and Chris Nixon all contributed to a win which the boys had to fight for until the final whistle. Continuing our dominance in Lhe House FuLsal Lomnament, the whole school was on edge watching Shannon and Morrison baLLle it oul for 1st place. Morrison scored the first goals, bUl Shalmon, being lhe underdog rose lo the chaDeng ,


leading LnLo half Lime wiLh Lh upper hand. BuL iL was noL Lo be ShaJ.1l10n's day. In the final momenLs , Morrison goL a goal aL a decisive momenL Lo snaLch the win away from the devasLaLed Shannon KnighLs. As the weaLher began Lo warm up, ALhleLics clay was upon us. Tbe final major event for the 2009 Cronk season was Lo be highly contested by the IIouses all hoping to score some lasL m inute poinLs Lowards a Cronk victory. Filling almost all our events, Shannon was conJident goi.ng in to the day after last year's solid performaJ.1ce. The day began vvith the 100m sprinLs where Fraser Russell blitzed the field and began

his dominaLion in the Under 17 boys. Emily Serle and Rachel I larris also performed well in Lheir respective age groups. As the Athletics came Lo an end, despiLe our disgraceful chanting skills, Shannon placed a respecLable 4Lh in very tough competition and left the track saLisfied that we had represented the Shannon spirit commendably. On behalf of Shannon we would like Lo thank all our dedicaLed Tutors for their supporL and guidance Lhroughout the year. Thank you also Lo Mr Donovan who leads our House with passion and determination, always setting a positive example for all Shannon Knights .

Most importantly, to the students of Shannon; wi Lhout your participation, the House's success would not have been possible. You all contribute to the friendly and welcoming House that Shannon is. We \vish you the best of luck for the future and hope that you carry on the Shannon legacy. Jack Richardson and Laura Stekelenburg Co-Cap lain

las, 2009 dissolyes into the netherworld, canonized by the Year 12s and mildly exalted by the remainder of the House. Whilst ,ve are saddened by its departure, the year has given us some "'onderful memories to take with us. Though we experienced transient glory in pursuits physical and intellectual, the true success of this year was in atmospheric alterations; a drop in house temperature induced a welcome relaxation in interpersonal tensions, with Head of House ~1rs . Gainey doing a superb job at maintaining air flm.v.

A

The Year 9s spent the first few weeks acclimatising, with Mr Parkes and ~ls Ulloa,Year 9 tutors, providing excellent assistance in this transition. The enormity of the grounds in Senior Campus can be rather overwhelming, but they adapted swiftly and confidently. With their zest for H ouse involvement, no doubt they shall be instrumental in Wettenhall's future success.

Victories were difficult to achieve early in the .lear. In fact, we never really secured any of the major contests, but there were plenty of smaller, though certainly not less important, triumphs in House events. Badmint on, Soccer, Softball and Tennis were all well contested, and thanks to the dedication of our athletes, even a placing in Cross-Country was recorded. However, these results were trumped by our magnificent dodgeballers- standing before the assembly, holding aloft a statuesque dodgeball trophy, is the gr eatest honour a Captain (or in this case three) can ever have. Henceforth departing from the College, we have so many people to thank: i'vlrs. Gainey, for showing motherly concern toward all of us, however difficult that has been. The Tutors have all done a magnificent job this year. As mentioned, Mr P arkes and Nts Ulloa did a fantastic job initiating our Year 9s, Mr. Joyce has offered his theatrical in1luence Lo the

• 60 •

Year lOs, Mr Andrews purveyed his creative design skills to the Year l I s aided by our musical muse Mr Mack and Ms Bourke has introduced a social, literary perspective to the Year 12s givingWettenhall a diversified cultural establishment. This, along with the ethnic differentiation amongst the students and Mrs. Gainey's global embracement, has made Wettenhall a sanctuary a t The Geelong College; given it the homely feel tha t a House is supposed to have. To all of you we are indebted, and we wish all Wettenhallians and Wettenhallians- to-be the besLof luck.

oday draws to an end 13 hard ,-ears of schooling for the Year 12s. It has been a roller coaster ride filled with its highs and lows, but being part of ~ lackie has always been a pleasurable journey. it being the place that I have called home for the past -1 years. Starting in Year 9, in came 7 dashing, young, rebellious delinquents out to prove themselves in a man's world. Years 10 and 11 further added to the collection and to the \'ariety ofYear 12s you see today. Over the years, we have matured from delinquents to hard workingYear lIs b:jing to do our best in the year leading up to the most important stage in our young lives. \Vhen that year finally came along we had transformed into a group of well groomed individuals that are about to embark on their final year of school and then onto a new and exciting chapter of our lives. As we reflect on the Lime we had in ~lackie, my buddies and I can only look back on the times that we had and feel that it was one of the greatest episodes of our lives.

T

It is inevitable that some of us may b e looking forward to being able to get out of the daily routine that comes with ~lackie life, from waking up and having to attend breakfast that some found so tough and gruelling; to the weekly soccer matches in the gym, and the ever so regular cleaning of the kitchen. ~lackie has helped everyone of the Year 12s that are leaving from learning how to live in a closely knit community or how to work together as a team to achieve the goals set out by each individual student.

Each and every one of the boarders appreciate what you have done for us, whether they show it or not. Finally to my other fellow Prefects Harry, Chris, Dylan and Alex, thanl{ you for your constant support and solidarity throughout the year, it has been greatly appreciated. Your energy and enthusiasm has made the house as sociable and co-operative as it is today. Mackie House has a bright future in the sLeady hands of Jordon and his team of Kelvin, Jonno arld Daniel. This day marks the end of our schooling, but I hope tha LiL is noL the end of a chapLer of great friendships tha Lhave been forged through life in Mackie.

hen I entered Mossgiel House, I didn't lmow what to expect, but I can now safely say that Mossgiel has become my home, and the girls in Mossgiel, my family, one I have come to lmow, love and value over two years. Our Year 12 group has grown and matured from the time when Georgia Hunt was the only stm:ter in Year 9 to now, four years later, 11 young women who have grovvn and matured and are preparing for the next chapter in their lives.

W

Year 12 has some interesting characters; we admire Sissy Dunn's dedication to her sporL while Carmen Ao is our quiet achiever mld Penny Took always keeps us entertained with Lalk of her friends . Anthea O'Brien and Pui Ee Hor, Mossgiel's artistic Lalent, are always full of insightful questions while Natasha Lau is unique and encourages others Lo be Ule same. Alexandra Murphy, a welcome addilion Lhis year, provides every girl WiUl fa hion and styling advice. Shcridm1 Bmu1 r's laugh is

infectious, and Cassie Haines' musical abilities have provided dynamism. Georgia Hunt is an eagle, loyal and ambitious with her views and values.

Term 1 saw an enjoyable b:ip down to Lome to bask in its sun, and iVlossgielians saw what the College had to offer in terms of theatre, with groups of girls going to see The Crucible and Peter Pan as well as the Australian Ballet and the iVlelbourne International film festival. At family day, the girls pulled on their soccer boots with the Urban beating the Rurals in an entlu-alling penalty shootout.

Campbell House Music There were many musical highlights at Campbell House this year. From the stunning Foundation Concert performance by the String Orchestra at Costa Hall to the everyday special moments of singing in class, playing at assembly or participating in instrumental lessons. Students at Campbell House are enthusiastic musicians who share a passion for singing and creating music. The Carols Service was a moving occasion where all students from Prep to Year 3 donned choir robes and sang carols,

adding emotion and atmosphere to the Year 1 ::.Jativity Play. The final Campbell House .\lusic Evening celebrated a year of rehearsal and performances for the ;\1ini-Singers, Year 3 Singing Sensations, The String Orchestra and the Year 2 String students. This was an entertaining concert showcasing beautiful singing, nimble fingered string technique and a genuine love and plide for their musical achievements. The Year 3 students finished their year at the Final Assembly singing the very apt song 'Dare to Dream'. Earlier in the year we were given the opportunity to hear professional singers from Oz Opera perform 'The Sound Garden' . it was so wonderful Lo watch a live performance and be impressed by amazing voices. The Year 1 Music Evening was an exciLing evening of

Middle School Music SLaff and students alike should be very proud of their efforts in the Music Faculty this year. We were pleased for Mrs Fyffe to take up new challenges at Campbell I louse but were sad to see her leave the Middle School. The Upper Primary students have not missed a beat, giving their all Lo Ms IIook, Mrs Bell, Mr Ti gani and Mrs McCarLney thTougho uL the changes. This was evident in Lheir marvellous singing aLI louse Music and Carols by Candleli ghL, and through Lh eir commiLment to Lh e class work.

We have been most fortLmate to benefit from the marvellous String Program at Campbell House. OurYear 4 Intermediate SLrings students, led by MJ: Mack, defy their age with their musicianship and endeavour. The Preparatory School SLring Orchestra, under the baton of Mrs Kamburowski, has been a very strong, hard-working group and in addition to their regular music evening performances, they enjoyed re-connecting with students from Brighton Grammar in a workshop and performance. The Concert Band, directed by MJ: Irwin, continues to benefit from the developing depth and maturity of its players. The Beginner Band, with MJ: Thacker, was a safe haven, providing a valuable opportunity for students new to their instruments to find their

feeL in an ensemNe. Many of our students have challenged themselves wi.th AlVlEB exams and parLicipation in chamber ensembles to extend their playing. The wind and string quartets, string trio, rock ensembles and newlyformed jazz ensemble add vibrancy to our program. In Term 4, aD students were presented with the chaDenge of playing in different groups in the form of tbe Year 7 & 8 Symphony, Primary Strings and Primary Concert Band. As musicians do, they rose to the cbaDenge, and provided some exhilarating performances at the final Middle School Music Evening. Our choral groups have gone from strength to strength this year, providing some wonderful highlights. Singing is such an inspiring way to connect with people and a joyful life skill. It is so helpful that our general staff and Head of the Preparatory School, MJ: Carroll, also love to sing and lead by example. Congratulations to aD our music staff and students on a fine year of music-making. Mrs Leanne McCru:tney

Senior School Music The range of performance opportunities at the Senior School continues to diversify, catering for the broad range of musical interests of our students. The class music program , ,vith its focus on smaD ensembles, was well balanced with the extracurricular large ensembles and choir and some memorable performances were presented throughout the year. Some bighligh ts: • The Stage Band participation in the 'Generations In Jazz' Festival held annuaDy in Mt Gambier. The commitment of the students to regular attendance at early morning rehearsals is to be applauded and their musical achievements commended. • VCE ensembles (Rock Groups, Saxophone QUaltet,Vocal Ensemble and String Quartet) performed regularly throughout the year. • 'Dido & Aeneas', a baroque opera by Henry Purcell, was presented in a concert performance by students from College and four other local

The Meditation from Bach's Double Violin Concerto was performed by Cavelle McKenzie and Nicola Luppino (Year 12) . • The Speech Day performances by our Symphony Orchestra (Mussorgsky's "Promenade" and "Great Gate of Kiev" from Pictures at an Exhibition) and String Orchestra ("Palladio") I would like to acknowledge the ongoing support of the Friends of Music, chaired by Mrs Robyn Pugh, with assistance in purchasing equipment for each campus, subsidising hire of vehicles for school tours, providing suppers for Music Eveni.ngs, and maintaining the Musical Instrument Register to allow families an opportunity to purchase or sell second-hand instruments. This year the inaugural Friends of Music 'Battle of the Bands' was held in Term 3. Adjudicated by old-Collegian John O'Brien, it was enthusiastically supported by rock musicians from both the Middle and Senior Schools. All these activities are of direct benefit to our music students and their families, and much appreciated by the music staff. I would lilm to congratulate all our senior students, ably represented by Music Captain Joshua Hay and Co-Vice Captains Cassandra Haines and Rebecca Carman, for their contributions to the musical life of the school this year, and I wish our departing Year 12 students the best of luck for the future. This has be n another inspirational year of music malting at Geelong College. Mr Mark Irwin Director of Music

he theme of this year's Arts week was 'Artube 09' which, w1der the guidance of 1\111' McIntosh and Mr Smith, twned into a magnificent collaborative arts project that eventually ended up being displayed for the world to peruse on the Internet. Inspired by a similar concept in which a visual image is created in quicktime over a couple of minutes, the projects involved the creation of a forest landscape that evolves from nothing into a flourishing forest of organic textures and forms. Project 2 involved the creation of a wave as it formed and pealzed before crashing into a sea of white water. Events such as these involve significant sLudent input, and this year we were fortunate to have many students lend their time to see this year's 'ArLube 09' come to [TUition. A special noLe of thanks Lo NIr McIntosh, Mr Smith and Lhe Art sLaff for their efforLs in again malzing ArLs Week an event Lo remember.

Fine and Applied Arts Report he Fine and Applied Art Faculty has been the ce~tre of significant and sustained creati\'e output in 2009. There are alKays some areas ""hich are more popular than others, but this year there has been a consistency in many different fields of the fine and applied arts. :\ lr :\ lacintosh 's YET :\ lulti-media students have shown \vhat can be achieved using a range of sofu...·are programs. The Design Technology area lIDder the guidance of Nlr Kayler Thomson has been bursting at the seams again this year, stretching facilities. The range of work produced has again been varied, but the quality remains the same high standard. The Textiles area has seen many incredible works lIDder construction, with creative outcomes achieved in a range of materials and styles. It is pleasing to see many students using this facility after school and on weekends The Painting studio has been the scene of considerable activity

T

this year particularly in Years 9 and 10. The variety of subject matter and approaches to art making have been e\ident in the quality of work produced by students. Of particular interest were the responses by:\lr Smith's Year 11 students to their visit to the Rosalie Gascoigne exhibition earlier in the year. Senior Art classes were also able to enjoy the incredible Salvador Dali exbiliition as well as the Top Arts show at the Ian Potter Gallery. Finally it is with great sadness that we farewell :\lr David Andrews after 18 years of dedicated service to the teaching of Fine and Applied Art at the College. His commitment to learning and encouragement to many Collegians over the years will never be forgotlen, and we thank him for what has been an outstanding career in the teaching and support of the Arts at Geelong College. 'Art is the desire of a man to express himself, to record the reactions of his personality to the world he lives in'Amy Lowell.

Cricket-1 st XI or all involved, crick~t can be at times a "ery challengmg sport. It is a game of mental strength and determination. There are not many other sports "'here you have to apply yourself for hours on end and not make a mistake in order to prevent a defeat. It can be frustrating and it can be exhilarating, but the challenge that arises every game IS something to treasure and that is why we Im'eit.

~

For the 151 XI it was a season in which we experienced highs and lows and the occasional in between. But these events were made easier by the friendship and loyalty that we have all gained for each other throughout the year. \Ve defeated \Yesley in the first match which turned out to be our only v,'in for the season. In a tough year our next best result was a well fought out draw against the eventual premiers, Xavier. Although we did not manage to win a n\'o day game, many of the boys achieved some fantastic resulLs. My

Vice-Captain, Tom Summers was always there to lend a hand on the field and was consistent throughout with the bat and ball. :\ lichael Jones was able to bat for long peliods, but LBW was his biggest problem; after one instance he stated 'if LBW did not exist in cricket, he would never go out'! Dale Denny made a remarkable recovery from what we all thought was a season ending knee injury managing to play all games in 2009. Although he may not have performed as well as he hoped \vith bat and ball, Campbell Bishop's ground fielding and catching throughout the season was fantastic. It was however, LheYear lOs that sLole the show on most occasions. Our young gun Jack Wood was a key player in the second half. His 42 against Melbourne Grammar was pivotal in prevenLing an outright loss. Jamie Harrison opened the bowling, and his baLting, though ugly at times, Lurned ouL La be effective, as he managed La pUL on a record 84 runs for Lhe 10 th wicket wiLh Edward Ratcliffe. Edward Ralcliffe

• J06 •

was our most economical bowler - an outstanding effort for a first year player. George Cameron continually punched well above his weight, constantly occupying the crease. Eammon Vines was the surprise packet for the year; with over 200 runs he proved that he is one to watch for in the future. He stated his claim with an unbeaten 68 against Melbourne Grammar which ended up costing them the premiership. Finally, on behalf of all the boys I would like to thank MrTeny for his excellent organisation and great detail with the slats; !Vir Gilby for his Lireless contribution Lo all cricket throughouL Lhe School, and our Coach Greg I Iansen for his coaching and menLoring of all players. They are m n we all respect greatly; Lbeir insighL and knowledge of the game has made us betLer cricketers as well as beLter people. Alex Carr CaptaiJl


Cricket: 2nd XI The 2nd XI had a good season, particularly after the holidays when we moved down a division into the 3rd competition. Before the end of the year we played just a handful of games, recording one win over \iVesley with only eight players. A devastating opening spell from Josh Carr (Year 10) had Wesley at 6/7, and set up the victory. After the Christmas break, we added some new and exciting players to the team. We started very well winning our first two games, with Michael Jones and Wesley lVlitchell doing well with lh bat and Lachlan de Blaquiere and Charles Mayfield wilh the ball. Aller our exciling start to the season we dropped off to lose the last 3 malches by very close margins. Alister Maas, Xavier I Ialch and Tim Gordon were all consislent conLributor to Ule

team throughout the season. I would like to thanl" Pete Adams for coaching us for the season and the TIC of Cricket, Mr Gilby.

Matthew McLean Captain

Cricket: Year lOA Team The 2008/2009 season was always going to be a challenge for theYear lOA Cricket team. With 5 of our best players making the step up into the 1sl XI, we lmew we were up against it playing some much bigger and stronger MelboUlne schools. Hugo SteinfOlt and James CalT were dangerous with the new ball, and we were always confident in talting early wickets. They also featured prominently with the bat throughout tlle season, batting aggressively with Janles averaging over 50 whilst Hugo howed u on many

• 107 •

occasions why he is just as handy with the bat as with the ball. George Chisholm consistently looked dangerous with his off-spinners in the middle overs taloog 4 wickets against Scotch and 3 against Brighton. He was also one of our key babnen at the top of the order with his 70 against Scotch a highlight. We were always dangerous in the field ,vith many highlights such as James Carr taloog a diving catch and Josh Carr witll a direct hit from the boundcuy line to affect a run out against Carey. It 'vas a season of missed opportunities with close losses to St. Kevins, HaileybUlY, Carey and MelboUlTIe Grammar, but we ended the season on a high with a stunning win against Brighton at home.

r would like to thank our Coaches Ben Gardiner and Rowan Sykes for a fantastic season.

Damien Hatch


Cricket:Year 10 B Team verall, it was a great year for the Year lOB Cricket team as a whole. Despite winning only one game for the season, we were very competitive throughout the season. Some of the highlights of the season were Charlie Harris' 56, Eddy Abletl's 38 as well as Will Kelly's and Douglas Morris' ability to consistently take wickets every week.

O

I would also like to thank our coaches, Dave Hunter and Matthew Wade for putting in so much work, effort and dedication into making us a better team. They have been fantastic in their roles and have truly improved our team in all areas. I would also like to thank the team for their great work and for having a great season.

didn't win many games we were regularly competitive and there were some good individual performances throughout the summer. John Simson and Joshua Saunders were consistent with the bat and made some very good scores, while Guy Fanning, Oliver Price and Dan Nagle bowled with accuracy and endeavour. Tom Maguire, Tom Andrews and Rory McCaffrey were good team players. It was pleasing to see Randall Fincham, Oliver Harris, and James Kenny regularly contributing to the team's performance. Jake Booth played his first season and showed great improvement; Macklen Barker and Ed Kershaw chipped in with some important innings throughout the year. Thanks must go to Dave Hunter as Coach for his enthusiasm and guidance over Lhe season.

Football: 1st Team s \Yinter sports season, the 1st vm was a strong and determined team hoping for a successful and enjoyable season. We started the season with a fantastic game against Carey which went down to the last minute. We came through winning 69 pts to 68 indicating we were going to be a competitive team all year. Alex Carr showed that he was going to be strong up forward booting 3 goals, with help from Piers Flanagan and Harley Le\vis through the middle.

~

Round 1 was one of our biggest games of the year. The Geelong College vs Geelong Grammar grudge match. Right from the first bounce you could tell that it was going to be an even and hard hitting game all day. With the score alternating continually, the boys

decided they had to do something about it. In the final quarter, they took on the challenge of kicking into the wind. Frasier Russell had a fantastic game running along the wing and giving us that extra boost we needed for the final term. With 30 seconds to go we managed to score a goal which put us in the lead. All we had to do now was Lo maintain possession of the ball; Isaac Baker managed to get hold of it and cleared it out of their backline so that we ended up with the win. Jeremy Taylor was the best on ground, dominating the ruck and kicking goals when most needed; Wes Mitchell also helped himself Lo a few goals. Round 5 was also a significant match for the boys this season. We came across Melbourne Grammar, and a few old teammates, who have always

• 110 •

been tough opponents throughout the years. This game was no exception. The game started with College kicking the first 2 goals, but then Melbourne surged back and kept the score tight. Cameron Williams had a dominant game in the ruck, winning the tap outs. This helped Richard Langham to run on to the ball, dodging and weaving around opponents. Xavier Hatch also played well on the backline in what was to be a stellar season. Elliot Mann also blocked out one of their red hot opponents. In the last minuL ,CoJlege kicked a goal managing to hold off Grammar unLil Lhe final siren.

Football: 2nd Team The 2nd XVIII had a trying season, often facing opposition with greater depth and bigger bodies. With each game, however, the team played with determination and a Loughness that continued to impress both the coaches and our opposition. Despite large losses at the beginning of th season, Lhe sid turned a corner with the extremely close loss to Geelong Grammar, finding a desire to win and an enjoyrnenL [or playing that had been laclzing.

Football: 3rd Team The 3rd Tearn's season was one to be truly remembered, with not many wins being recorded buL more lhan a few friends being made. Om skills and game plays were honed twice a week at arduous training sessions on the one eighth of the oval we were graced .vith. Leading these grueling sessions was the back bone of the team, the affectionately named 'Major Steve', who coaxed the boys through the hard times for maximum performance each Satmday morning. I'd like to thank all the people who puzzled together the team each week, collaborating with 1st Basketball players and Boarders; we are much obliged for their efforts. I would also most impOltantly like to thank om Coach, Steve Major, and om passionate Football Coordinator, Mr Clifford. Hamish Palmer-Hill Captain

Football: lOA Team High expectations were on the shoulders of the lOA team in 2009 after only dropping six games since YeaI' 7. This pressme to perform became even greater when six of the twenty players from 2008 were good enough to be selected in the 1st The boys were extremely excited \vith the task allead of them and this enthusiasm was brought to the first training session and remained for the sea on. With two new Coaches, Leigh ilcCorkell and Aaron Gleeson, we headed into the first game of the season on Main Oval up against an evenly matched Wesley team. This match ended up being as close as was pr dicted, willi "Vesley ju t getting over Ule line in the dying minutes.

These close games became all Loo familiar for Lhe team as we overcame much tough opposition in outfits such as Xavier, Carey and I Iaileybury Learns. The first game back from the holidays was the game that everyone has been looking forward to all year againsL Brighton Grammar and with lhe return of the six players from the 1st squad, th tearn was looking its sLrongest yet. The resulL backed this up with College beating Brighton by ten straight goals. Special thanks must go to all of the boys for giving it their all in such a tough football competition, and to Coaches Leigh and Aaron who were so instrumental to the success and the enjoyment of the team. The team consisted of: Hugo Steinfort, Darnien Hatch, James Carr, Cameron Williams, William Kittelty,

Football: Year 9 Team The Year 9 Football squad began the season full of enthusiasm and after just two training sessions, we were thrown into our first match against the very strong St Kevin's squad. We were comprehensively beaten, but this did not reflect on the talent of our team, we just had to knuckle down at training and begin to know our roles \vithin the team. Our first and most memorable win of the season carne at home against a strong }{aileybury side. Players such as Dan Ross, Angus Widdicombe, Ollie eerhut, Matt Lamont and Alex Shannon were able to win the hard ball out of the centre from our ruckmen Aaron Derkson and James Billings. They were able to kick long into our strong forward line

made up of players such as John Simson, Jackson Wylie, Daniel agle, Ollie Price and Jack Steel who were able to convert these opportunities into goals. Our backmen, Robbie Waterhouse, Tom laguire, Randall Fincham, Matt Roche and James Landy were able to batten down the hatches and dirninish any scoring opportunities that arose. After the mid season break we came back in form after dropping down a Division. We had two comprehensive wins, firstly against a weaker opposition in Marcellin College. Our other win was much more satisfying; we were able to notch up a great win againsLa Caulfield Grammar side that consisted of many players who had been part of a side that narrowly defeated us earlier in the season. The game had many highlights, one being Lhe satisfaction of utilizing many setups which we had been using a t training throughout the

N etball: 3 rd Team Coming into this season, we were not that optimistic about our chances of doing well. But we still went out and played our best especially our two Year 12's, Natasha Lau and Bridey Sanders. r atasha was one of our bouncy centres while Bridey played as oUT strong \VA. Our attack was strong, no matter what the scores said, with Louisa Bennison, Georgie Bull, Rosie Walder and newcomer Aislinn Campbell all stepping in to tal<.e a shot.

009 has been a great period of time where all cre,,'~ have gained from the eX'Penence of a tremendous team based competiti\'e sport, where indi\idually ere'" members ha\'e learnt things about their individual strengths and \\'eaknesses, as \yell as great values of teamwork. dedication, perseyerance, in a very supportive and encouraging environment.

..\. few weeks before the Head of The Ri\U, the Girls and Boys l'lVIII and twoYear 10 rowers,Addy DunkleySmith and Jennifer Cleary, travelled to Tasmania t.o compete in the _Tational Ro\\wg Championships held at Lake Barrington. Add}' and Jennifer competed in the Gnder17 Quad scull event combining with a Coro\\'a and _Tagambie Rowf'r and they \\'on a gold medaJ which was no ~ean feat as Lhe event had 32 entries from around the country. The Boys 1 VIII managed to gain a

silyer medal in the ~lens U/19VIII, second to Scotch College, l\1elbourne, arguably their best performance for the season. Tim Cleary and Jack Richardson made it through to the finaJ "'here they finished 5th . Tim, amongst some serious competition, also managed to claim a Bronze medal in the Schoolboy Single Scull race. The season was capped with mixed results at the Head of the River. There were two \\inning crews on the day, the Girls Year lOA crew and the Girls 2nds. Congratulations should go to them and to their coaches Alan Darker and Anita \Vhitehouse. Our Year 9 boys compeLed for the first time in Quad sculls and while we did not have any wins, all performed well which makes for a promising 2010 for them in the Year 10 compeLiLion . I'm sure that all crews gave iL everything Lhey had on the day or days, and as Coaches, parenLs and supporters, that is all we can ask of them. Of course Lhere was some disappointment for some crews

Boys Captain of Boats and 1s l VIII Report The 2009 season has been one of breath Laking wins and heartbreaking losses for some of the serrior crews, as well as a great learning experience for ourYear 10 crews, and for all of our Year 9 boys quads. The Serrior boys sLarLed as usual with early mornings in the gym wiLh long ergos and weighLs sessions. There was also of course the Sunday morrring sculling which ofLen resulLed in swimming ... for cross Lraining purposes, oJ course! College had a strong turnouL aL Lhe National Indoor Rowing Champi onship wiLh some good individual performances.

W hen school recommenccd so too did the serious end of the season . We were competing at Regattas on most weekends, travelling to Iagambie and Carrum. We did have a couple of small Regattas on the Barwon as well, where some of us competed in pairs as well as VTIIs. The amount of pair rowing that we participated in this season proved to be beneficial for our Nationals' campaign

In Week 6 of Term 1 the Boys and GiTls 1stVTII crews headed to Tasmania for the Australian National Rowing Championships. During this week we competed in the Male U/19 pairs, U/19VTII and SchoolboyVTII races . It was dUling the Male U/19

IL was a very Lough year Lo do well aL the Head of U1e River, \vith the standard of all crcws being very high. Our Year 9 Boys quads were not disgraced by any means perfolming well against the Scotch and Caulfield crews. OurYear lOs found the going tough against a num])er of crews who would have been very competitive at the Senior level. The Boys 1st and 2nd VTII had their heats on ilie Friday evening \vith a small crowd and very little atmosphere. The Boys 1'[ crew drew the worst lane [or llieir heat on Fliday ,vith start being delayed because of an "Ul1fair" \vind.

UnfOltunately, we did not

I would like to thank all the coaches who have dedicated themselves to improving the rowers at all levels of ilie club, and in particular our Senior Coaches Neil ;\l.yers, Scott Penning and Alistair Miller. All in all it has been a very enjoyable season. But of course none of it \vould have been possible \vithout the help of a bunch of dedicated people. First of all the coaches; these men spent hours of their own time trying to make sure ilieir crew was going as well as possible. At the same time as slogging us up and down the course, they still managed to make us have a great time. Thank you to our always smiling boatman Fletch; \vithout this very special man we would be in a whole lot of strife! And lastly, but not least, thank you to the Parents Support Group; it was these people that provided food for us hungry rowers on Saturday mornings, gave us shelter at regattas and raised money for equipment.

Boys 2 nd YIII Before \ye let ourseh-es turn a\\-a,- from the eason that \\-a :\109, perha~ let a glance back at what "-as_ ,,-hat could ha"e been, and what \\ill foreyer be. The Geelong College Boys 2nd \ TIl again ha pro\'ed itself as one of the great nursery grounds for the \ lS. Throughout the pre, ea on the tallest the fittest assembled themseh'es in front of The Geelong College Boat Club (:\ 1uckie Land). and submitted them to selection, better lmO\\l1 as trial by oardeal.

Others like Angus \\lshart and :\lark D'..lJtera also made their presence lmO\\l1. Ben, 'ott \\·ho. as a Year 10 more than filled the foot stretches that were placed before him; he was always lmO\\l1 as "Brave Little Benny, ·ott". Towering m'er us all \\'as the musical prodigy Luke :\ lcGowan, King of the Ergo, and who could forget the aqua h,ins Hamish Palmer Hill and James Holding, oh how they played in the water, splashing us all; thanks guys.

A for Lt Georgie Webster and Sgt Harry Se\\'ard VC, it \\'a to be their year of fOltune and glory. .\s the re pected eldel of:\ 109 they lead from the front, and it was for their honour that all the hard work wa done.

Georgie, steered her cre\\' to its best. and Harry's our mild and stoic leader, inner trength glued our crew together, leading by example allO\\ing others to bring out their best.

Our success was not recorded by results in any race, but by the way \\'e conducted ourseh'es with a common goal of unity and team\\'ork rarely seen in any other sport. Our success is recorded in our camaraderie as a ere'" and our common bond as :\ luckies for Life. Harry eward troke

Year 10 Boys' crews Small numbers in the squad ofYear 10 boys for the 200 12009 Ro\\ing season resulted in the College only boating one \ 1II and struggling to keep a 1\' on the water. Early in the season we were able to boat a IV but after losing Ben _'ott to the Senior boys 2nd \ 1II and George Curnow to other spoding pursuits, this combination was no longer viable. The crew did race early in the season at the Barwon and GRA Score Regattas in the i\lale C Grade 1\~ but found the 'dinosaur' crews (read 'older' males who are not school

boys!) too strong. Thanks to Jeremy Sturges for his assistance \\~th coaching this crew. Ian, James and Alex Retman, our three 'reserves' must be commended for their commitment given the unfOltunate and difficult situation they found themselves in for the latter pad of the season. Ian and James stepped up as dependable substitutes when others from the vm were injured, which included the e}..'J)erience of racing in the vm at the APS Regatta. Alex Retman's new found enthusiasm for sculling provided him with an oppOltunity to compete at the Scotch 1\ 1ercantile Regatta. Despite being outclassed by stronger opponents in superior boats, as Ale.x approached the finish line some distance behind, he happily enjoyed the applause and suppod from the whole crowd that stretched for some distance along the banks of the lake! The boys 1 'vm competed in five regattas and approached each event with plenty of enthusiasm and determination. Having to compete in the highest di\~sion against the strength of numbers from APS Boys' schools, such as the ever dominant Scotch College and i\lelbourne Grammar, was no easy task. Perhaps their best memories of racing success are from early in the season when the VIIl was split into two IVs to compete in the i\lale C Grade IV at the Barwon Regatta. The 1 t IV combination of Nick,


Cameron, Andrew, Ben and coxing cluLi sharcd by Alex Wal goLL and KaU1crinc lonoLLi, misscd ouL on winning Ul A final by U1e narrowesL of margins. The 2nd IV combinaLion of Rowan, Georgc CLUTIOW, Alcx Sullivan, MaLlliew and Georgina WebsLer (cox), claim dan exciLing victory in the B final. Overall llie boys in U1e VIII made good progress throughouL U1C season, and I am confident their coach, Tim Wlight, was proud of lli ir conLinual efforL to work on improving their tcchnique and fiLness each week. Despite the lack of victories, tile general good nature of the boys, along with their terrific spiriL was appreciated. Thanks to Tim WrighL and Jeremy Stmges for tileir time and effort to coach the boys, along with occasional assistance from v\ ill Heath and Paul Van Prooyen. I am confident the boys who retmn to the Boat Club will help to strengthen the senior crews and eagerly take on the challenges of another rowing season - good luck!

Boys Year 9 Report For the first Lime om Year 9 boys were competing against the best of the best in Quadruple sculls at the APS Heads of River Regatta. This was a big change from going straight into sweep oared rO\ving in VIlls. Willi some doubling up of Coxswains we were able to boat 7 crews for the final regatta. We had a large group of dedicated coaches who were at times a little frustrated with the large number of other school activities which led to many changes in crew personnel dming training and in some early regattas. This large group of boys showed that with a little persistence the skill and concentration needed to rm\' a quadruple scull can be achieved, and, whilst we did not win any finals in the first year in these boats, all crews showed a great deal of improvement, and inished in front of more crews than they were behind. Thanks must go to the coaches William Heath, .lIlathew Carroll, l\'eil Fletcher, Ben Thompson, Paul Van Prooyen, Lamen 1\ 1cGowan, Andre\\' Steele, and Tim Andrews.

Year 9 Girls Crews At the end of 2008, a new bunch of fledgling rowers spilled ouL of the bus from Lhe Preparatory school onto Lhe banks of the Barwon River. They were Lhere to try their hand at the new sport of Rowing. As the weeks flew by, skills were developed and crews were prepared for the home and away regattas. The }'l crew, coached by Sue Campbell, consisted of Sophie Brand, Emily Fuller, Fiona Riley, Danielle Roberts and I Iannah Chimside (cox). Within this crew there was strength and athleticism. Sadly they did not win a title at any regaLta, but Danielle provided much entertainment when she was flipped high out of the boat toward the end of a race. 'With characteristic good humour and almost grace, she pulled herself back in. They finished the race to great applause from the crowd. The 2nd crew had the most success through the season. They were coached by John Hill and the girls were Paris Kontelj, Lucy Campbell, Laura Walker and Phillipa Weetman. Katrina Bigelow steered this very fast boat. Their finest row was at the Head of the School Girls' regatta where they won in their division. Congratulations John and girls! Past student and Captain of Boats Laura O'Rourke, coached the 3rd~.

The girls in tills crew were Remy Blair-Thom pson (cox), Francoise Hill, r\n.nabelle Chrimes, Emma Bath and Thea Pilllip. These girls rowed well through the season, improving greaLly as each week went past. Our 4 u, crew was coxed by Katie Appelbe and rowed by Edwina Slattery, :'vladdie SLevens, Grace Clark and Lucy Drayton. These girls applied themselves wonderfully to the task aL hand and, by the end of the season become very competitive. This plea~ed their coach, Louise Gardner, very much. Finally, the 5 th crew. Jenny Hayles, ,vith assisLance from present student Ruth Blair, coached tills enthusiastic group of girls. There was a bit of seat changing through the season, but a crew each week was formed from Cristina Porto, Holly Russell, Lucy Duffield, Lucy Walsh, Kirra Greig, Brigitte Ward-Moss and Kameiko Gray. Even though these young ladies had much to learn about the rigours of the sport, their commitment to improve and their cheerful perspective on all setbacks were commendable and impressive. l\'irs Deb Cleary Photo Top Left : Yr 10-1st IVWinners Head of the River Photo Below : Boys 1st VIII

Girls Team he 2009 Waterpolo season for both the 1st and 2nd girls' teams saw tightly contested matches witll every girl stepping up and playing brilliant and entertaining games. Waterpolo at the College has grown in popularity over the year, with new girls joining the team throughout the season. The 1st team played with determination and enthusiasm.

T

Georgia Ratcliffe demonstrated why she scored the most goals (15) with her aggressive style. Best and fairest, Emily CalT showed that she ,vas a versatile player who could manipulate the play anywhere in the pool. Laura Stekelenburg, Stephanie Taylor and Olivia Dalton used their swimming abilities to out swim the opposition and leave them with no answer~ \iVi.th Hannall Wellernan as goalie, scoring for the opposition became very difficult. Key players Brydie Munihy and Elin Collins provided strength [or tile ever' inlproving team. Reb cca Widdicombe showed she was tougher' Ulan most, after

being forced out of the competition due to injury, she attended every last game to support her team mates. Performances like these influenced a large crowd to come and support the girls. Well done to all the girls who finished an impressive 3rd on the ladder behind Haileybury and Wesley. The 2nd girls' team had a ter1.IDC season \v:inning over half their games. The whole team demonstrated the talent that will be our future. All our success would not have been possible if it were not for our coaches Kenny McClelland and Jo Fox, who both put in so much time and effort in to developing the two girls'teams, allowing us to perform to the best of our abilities. A special mention must go to Mrs Porter, whose organization and commitment have ensured a smooth running season. I have played and enjoyed many seasons ofvVater-polo at the College and would like to wish all Ule future teams the best of luck Congratulations again to the 2009 girls' Water-polo teams.

Boys IstTeam he 1st Boys enjoyed a great season of tennis, despite some disheartening score bnes. Regardless of finishmg at 1l1e bottom of the ' ladder, as a team and individually, we managed to improve ourselves and gain some confidence and momentum towards the end of the season. Early in llie season, we endured numerous heavy defeats by the top schools such as Scotch College, Haileybmy College and Carey GrammaJ.~ Neverll1eless , we picked ourselves up and continued to play haJ.'d with the intention of beating om' arch rivals Geelong GrammaJ.'later in llie tenn. The highlight and the most highly anticipaLed match of the season came in U1e form of a wet, wmdy and mi erable day of Lenni against Geelong Grammar. Thc boys were full of enlliusiasm and hope of winning Uus grudg maLch againsL ow' pale blue aJ.'eln'ivals. vVllilc w wcre ouL on courtbravmg U1C harsbesL of condiLions, our maLell referec cnjoycd Ule vlew from U1C comfort and

At 8 sets all at the end of the day, the matel1 would be decided on the count back of gaJ.l1es, for the second year in a row. The heartbreakllg final score of Grammar's 8 sets, 109 gaJ.l1es to our 8 sets, 108 gaJ.l1es is etched in my brain and forever will be! After our stunningly positive 11 sets to 5 loss to a strong Caulfield unit, we were confident and hopeful against Bligl1ton, where the few remainingYear 12s would play our last gaJ.l1e of College tennis. Unfortunatel.i~ we were unable to perfonn at our best, but we made a pomt to fight to the very end. Nost:,ugically for me, tbis was where I debuted for the 1st team, and tbis too, sadly, would be where it would end after a wonderful 3 year c..'Cpcricncc.

Boys 2nd Team The 2nd Tennis team participated in a strong competition all season and fought bravely to win a number of matches against very capable opposition.

Boys 5ths and 6ths Tennis Teams This eason, the Boys' 5ths and 6ths Tennis Teams combined to form a flexible unit. As many of the boys suffered injuries and were required for othel~ wlavoidable commitments throughout the season, we found mixing and matching the two teams to be the most effective way of fulfilling our sporting commitments. The boys played with great deteIlllination and spirit, although the final scoresheets did not always reflect this attitude., The coaches' encouragement awards went to Alec George and Dylan Spence for their reliable attendance at training and matches, their positive attitude towards their tennis and their Wlfailing good sportsmanship.

Girls Badminton Despite a slow start in Term 4 2008, the number of badminton enthusiasts increased by the beginning of Term 1 and we were pleased to have enough players to add a 4th Team to our 1st Team which played in the 2nd division of the APS competition. Throughout the season, these young girls advanced in skill and tactics whilst enjoying themselves and mal<ing ne,v friends.

1st Team This year's 1st Team managed very well in terms of winning games against the other APS schools as well as developing close friendships.

Amongst the 1st Team members, Pui Ee I lor broughL laughter and joy to the courts and in addition, we were very lucky to have international support from Sarah Zemp, a Swiss exchange student, who became a strong part of our team.

I wish Laura Jelfs, Michelle and Louise Beggs, the remaining girls in the 1st Team, all the best for the next season.

Our senior girl Carmen Ao should be recognised for the effort she put in as well as for being the most reliable member of the team. Penny Took was also a veteran player, having contributed to Badminton for Lhe past four years. Despite everyone's best effort, however, the team was a liltle unlucky in terms of wins. This has no doubt been a great experience for them and I am sure that they will rise to the occasion next season with their budding Lalent.

r

he 2009 Girls S"II'immll1g team trained and performed at an impressive level throughout the season. Despite tough competition each Saturday morning, the girls sho"ll'ed excellent team-spirit and a determination to be admired. The intense early morning training sessions and the high class of competition only seemed to encourage our girls, as the attendance eyery week \"as strong in number. In an intense workshop lead by Fiona

Skirmer and the reputable Russell Parsons, we had a great chance to learn from one of the best coaches in Victoria and refine our skills before the upcoming APS finals. Saturday swimming also continued to provide an arena for the girls to practice, improve their swimming ability and tackle new challenges. Another of the many highlights of the season was to observe the determination and perseverance of swimmers such as Luci Ross, who made it her mission to master the dreaded

backstroke tumble tum. It was great to see the enthusiasm and competitiveness of our Prep School girls every weekend. Saturdays soon developed into a competition between them as to who could swim the most events each week. The 24" Annual APS finals were held onTuesday 24th .\larch aL\lelbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre. Although this competition is dominated by larger schools, our team comprised of 31 of our best, and we are proud to boast that our home grown talent and sheer determination led the College to an impressive 5th place, outscoring our traditional rivals, Geelong Grammar. First class competition on Lhe night saw 17 long standing records broken, mostly by Haileybury and Carey.

Finally on behalf of tlle team, I would like to express our appreciation for the expert coaching of Dean Alchin and Fiona Skirmer.

It is with great sadness that I and my fellow Year 12 girls Stephanie Taylor, Laura Stekelenburg, Eliza Curnow, and Georgia Scott, after 6 years of representing Ule College, say goodbye to the swimming team. The fond memories that we all have of swimming for'Dle Geelong College will remain with us for many years to come. The Swimming tearn at the College seems to only improve each year and I hope, und r the guidance of Fiona and Dean, oW' younger recruiLs can carry on Swim Learn's proud LradiLion.

With not enough nwnbers to fill a full side, the Geelong College and Geelong Grammar teams combined to mal{e the Geelong Combined swimming squad.With many strong friendships beginning to form, it was always great to get together with the boys from Grammar, even if it meant getting up extra early for the joumey to Melbourne., Although our teanl was not a huge threat, it was he.:lrtening to see everyone getting in there and giving their best each week."

he Geelong College has had a history of great surfing teams for over three decades of competing in the Rip Curl Shield Tag Team Championship. Past memJJers have included the likes of World Tour sensation Troy Brooks who has gone on to achieve professional status and success. Despite this, College has only managed to claim the State title twice (1989 and 2002). On May 1st a team of ten surfers from The Geelong College travelled to Jan Juc to compete in the Regional qualifier for the State finals. Met with small and challenging surf conditions, the team managed to make the final to face strong public schools such a Oberon High School and Lome P- 12 school.

his year saw an immense improvement on last year's inconsistency. Vve had a strong team including only 2Year 12s (myself and Nathan Maxwell) with a few new additions to the team from Year 9 (Nick Quail and Taylor Bett) who both proved to be invaluable in the team's success. Despite being in the 2 nd Division, we still pushed ourselves to win by as much as possible, winning all of our game by at least 20 points and in some cases, even pushing the winning margin out to forty or more points. After the early weeks we narrowed the squad down to a firm eight, with the slarting five being AnclJ.-e Garcey, Ben Roberts, Nathan Maxwell, Nick Quail and myself. Others playing in lhe squad were Taylor Bell, Russell George and Jordan Timms, willl DOlninicTigani and Nikolas Jeremic (Year 9) also playing om matches. Our game plan for 1l1e year was 'nm a nd gun'. This was bolstered by lhe

presence of Andre Garcey and Ben Roberts in our team who both have a lot of experiences in basketball and who controlled the pace of the game most of the time. Andre took out the MVP award for the season, a reflection of his great season. Russell George took out the Coach's Award for his determination to get the ball; this intimidating tenacity however was not the only thing he brought to the team, as he would always come to games and training with a big smile. athan iVl.a,'{well, our fearless Captain, would never throwaway the opportunity to shoot three's no matter the time of the game. This confidence of his own ability, and constant nagging of our Coach Chris Clyne, was soon to bring oul his forsaken lefl hand when scoring. Ben Roberts was a solid player who brought speed and pace to our leanl as well as a great deal of experience. He proved invaluable in controlling the pace of Ille game and keeping everybody on their toes, inclucli.ng the referees . The future looks bright for College

basketball as next year \ve see our team move into the 1st Division, with only two players leaving the side. ick Quail shows great strength and skill for his stature, and continually proved reliable as our starting point guard, Nick shows experience well above his age. Taylor Bett shows promise as our big man with his ability in rebouncli.ng and shooting. As both ~ ick and Taylor are only in Year 9, there is a promising future for College basketball. This season was memorable as an undefeated season always spells fun. I'd like to thank our Coach Chris Clyne for sharing his Imo\\'ledge of the game with us , and wish him good luck for the future as he will be leaving us ne},.'t year for a State team coaching job. As this is my last year of College Basketball, playing was certainly my highlight of being at The Geelong College. I will miss the Saturday morning games and wish the team good luck in the years to come. Chris Atkinson Vice Caplain

Our determination yielded some great results, especially after \\'e suffered THE training session of many, man~' push-ups. Jack .\ngliss was our con istentiy sb-ong point scorer, ably a sisted by the dominant Rhys Hoelting, who would often nail us a highlight goal. Joelan Jeffrey showed his high jump mastery in his great jumps and blocks, wl1ilst Alex Genis made his presence on the court known. Dominic Tigani joined us from the Ists during the season, outrunning the defenders witil his agility and speed, and putting up some quick points. Our two :\ lackie boys Stan Lian and JeffYeung, also helped create the core of the team through their skill and sheer character. \Ve were also assisted by some of the boys from the 5ths as well as Darcy Thomson, who was forced to sit out for half of the season due to an unfortunate injury.

Throughout the entire eason every player in the team improved and always displayed detemunation and willpower. There were of course standout players: Luke Chaffey was a star both offensively and defensively, towering over other teams to provide many rebounds and scoring opportunities; Alan He scored many baskets from his excellent shooting ability, while Senney Wang never failed to impress with his speed and agility. Sam Zhang and Chlis Song played a key role in defense with their much improved rebounding ability. r-Iatthew Yang's jumping ability was spectacular at training, but unfortunately he could not make it to any games. Tick Pedersen managed to do a bit of everytl1ing, aiding the tearn as a good all-rounded player.

BoysYear 10 C team Th IO C team, made up wholly o[Year 10 sLudcnts , had a good season, winning most of their games and losing only a couple. The team consisted of Jonathon Khoo, Lachlan Serle, Caleb 'Nong, Eason \ iVu , Nick Fulton and Ryan Timms. Over Lhe course of the winter season, we had to employ a few of tile Year 9s to play for us due a lack of numbers. That did not stop us however, from \vin.ning some of our games by rather convincing margins. One such example was a classy demolition of Scotch by around 30 points. On the other hand, we felt the sting of defeat when St. Kevin's defeated us by over 60 points. They are a team some of us lmow from Year 7, and we have never beaten tilem. There were some good individual performances consistently over the season. Eason Wu, more often than not, scored a bucketful of goals during each match with brilliant field goals

The 9A team this year had a tough year, unfortunately not winning any games, although there were a number of hard fought ones. Even in the games we lost, we used that energy and converted it into positive thoughts for the next game. During the year we had some real highlights. Travelling up to Melbourne, and to and from the Try Boys Arena, were experiences we found amazing. The boys attended regular training sessions and were privileged Nicholas Fulton to be coached by Steph Guy, who in Captain tum, taught the team the basic skills of how to properly post up or set a screen.

GiTls 1st Team This year's season has been one to remember. There were many bighs which included 7 out of a possible 9 wins with 1 draw. Unfortunately, we had our first loss in our last game of the season, taking away our undefeated title. Our average winning margin of 20 points did not reflect how hard the matches were. The major highlight of our season would have to be defeating our rivals Geelong Grammar. This basketball game was one of the few games where the girls were challenged on the scoreboard. We went out onto the court with one goal in mind - to win. We achieved this by having confidence in ourselves, our teammates and playing aggressive basketball. It was a close game, but the only difference was that College was leading the whole game. It was one of our best games for the season because of the fact that we all contributed and played as a true team. This great girls tec'UIl can only get such success from a pecial bunch of girl . The team had a variety of


personalities in it, firstiy we ha\'e ;, iorgan Olsal\., who altilough shy and quiet, \\'ould not hesitate to tal,;:e long hots from outside tile key and haw tile ability to hit them. Then there's tile opposite, a person who you can hear before you can see her - -"larina. ~ larina is the first person to start talking it up, no matter what hour of the morning. ::\eAi is ::\atalie, who just gets out there and plays basketball. Then there is a girl who is always happy and o\'erjoyed at trainings and in games - Lauren Kemp. A team cannot go \\ithout the social gal, Ali -" iurphy. Ali has kept us entertained and is a player \\'ho is also not afraid to shoot from outside the key. And then there's Jen Cleary. \\nat can we say about Jen? She is one of many great players of the team; she always puts in 100% and is \'ery consistent. Our star Harriet Fraser displayed many skills and led by example, sho\\ing improvement with each match. Samantha Dobson is one that stands out due to her outgoing nature that just comes naturally to her. Sam has contributed to the game with her big 3 pointers and o\'erall general presence. Emily Koroneos showed on-court leadership while she was a\'ailable early in the season before her State basketball commitments took her out. Finally. my little Co-C ;\lorgan Smith. I have never known someone to be so short but still be able to rebound

over girls D\ice her size, and have tile courage to talze them on. She has been our little ecret weapon. \Ye cannot forget the most important person on our team, tile most amazing and fun Coach College has to offer.

Boys IstTeam think it's fair to say that the staff, coaches and continuing players approached the 2009 season with caution, if not apprehension. \Ve had lost 8 of last year's starting 11 players; to fill these spots may not seem like such a daunting task for a ;\ lelboume school, such as Scotch, ',"ho has 14 senior hockey teams, but for College who has only 3 senior male teams, it appeared, at first, to be more of a challenge. \\Te needed a team that was confident, committed, competitive and consistent. With this gap in our team, it was obvious that the new Year 9s were to playa major role. At the start the season, I wondered how we could prepared them for not just the higher standard of hockey, but the extra physicality and potential intimidation that older players bring to the competition.

Eddie Ablett, Kieran Salathiel-D.i ke, Guy Fanning, ;\latthew Perkins, ~ick :.Ylolyneux, Kris Barton, Joel Barton" and occasional players Zac Buggy, Hamish Palmer-Hill and Gus Townley, bonded well and played a very competitive season. \Ve started with a well fought out 2-1 victory over Carey at Hawthorn which was followed up with a draw against :\lelboume Grammar. Round 3 brought our first loss of the season against a strong Xavier side but we played well and were encouraged that we could match it \vith a premiership contender. Round 4 was a nil all draw against Haileybury, in which we were unlucky not to score and take the 3 points as we controlled most of the match. Our next match was the first match in which our inexperience showed, and the halftime score against the undefeated Caulfield was 6-1 . The last match before the midyear break was on a Friday afternoon and both Brighton and College had their chances to win, both leading at some point in the maLch. I Iowever, we were

• 144 •

both left disappointed, sharing the points to record our third draw in six matches. Our form dropped off after the break, the team only managing 3 losses to ladder leaders Scotch, a strong Wesley outfit, and finally St Kevin's at the State Hockey Centre in our poorest game for the year. These results show we were competitive, and it is impossible to be competitive without a solid support base; this is why a big thanks must go to Graeme Dent, the Director of Hockey, who willingly gave valuable advice during matches and training; Ms Tol, the Head of Hockey, for her strong interest and work on our behalf, and also Mr Cheatley and Mr Gilbey for their support. But most importantly, I'd W{e to thank Ben Gardiner, Lhe Coach oI the Leam for his willingness and deLermination Lo make us the fittest team in the APS.

Soccer: Boys 1st Team oming off from the record breaking season of 2008 and losing many key players to retirement, the 1st team was plunged into tile deptils of 2nd Division APS Soccer. Our season started positively with the Xavier game being tile highlight of the season.

C

We scored the first goal, but in the blink of an eye, it was half time and we were 4-1 down. We thought we were done. Whenever there is an inspirational half-time speech, there's a \vay so Coach Kovacev lipped into us and put belief back into our heads. TIle second half of Lhe game was the besl half of Geelong College soccer ever seen. Xavier didn't know what hit them. Magnificent headers came from Acizhim Poon and Andy Flanagan se.:lled a draw for us and we slole lwo poinLs from Xaviel~ College a1mosl won in the lasl minute when Nick Kovacev's shot hil Ule crossbar. Il was a game Ulal had lo be seen to be believed.

Telson Wang and David Wescott were our fortress guardians but our backline players were never in full strength with sicimesses and injuries causing many to "soldier on". Daniel Berton secured our left flank, Teak McPadden was the dictator in the middle of defence, and Santo Thpodi never missed a defensive header. Julian Fabbian had a short lived 1st XI playing career, but an effective one, nonetileless.

"That can't be a Year 9"! 1\latt l\1cLean was the cool forward that let nothing ever get to him; even the thousands of balls hit into the posts didn't stop him from trying to get the ball into the net.

Our midfield was never short of players. Year 9 Chris NL'(on gave it his all to prove he could match, or even better, hisYear 12 opponents.l\\ichael Jones' top draw skill enabled him to score the College's first ever 1st hat-trici\:. Undoubtedly our most consistent and most tenacious player of the team \Vas Andy Flanagan who could pull out a matcil winning goal if ever it was needed.

The Girls 1st team has truly exceeded expecLations; with 3 \vins and 2 draws the team has become the mosL successful 1sl girls' team in the school's history. Our firsL g3llle against Caulfield GraDlIDar made us realize tilat pre-season training may have been a good idea. We also recognized Lhat we had potential as long as we put in hard work.,lms was reflected in the well fought out match against Geelong GraDlIDar in Round 4 when Jess Brotchie scored our first goal of the season.With Eliza Scott and Erin Collins playing fantastic games we came away from tile game with a 1 all draw.

Soccer: Boys 5th Team Tile 5U1 Soccer Team had a producLive year. Coming inLo the last match of the season we were wldeIeated and showed a relaxed aLtitude to Ule final match. This attitude was evident at the beginning of the match, and we conceded an early goal. Helped out by new recruit Louise Beggs, we were able to come away with a one all draw, enabling us to be undefeated for the entire season. This match, like the entire season, saw great goalkeeping from Baden KeranibIW1, as well as marvellous defence from Alex Rollo, Jack Plowman, Dylan Spence, Alec George and Cameron Walsh. The consistenL midfield of Angus WishaIt, Callum Maltby, Grady McGuire, Julian Fabbian and tile frontline of Josh Murphy, Nicolas Brimacombe and Jake Bertone played well. Thanl{S from the whole teaJn go to om Coach Alexis Lopez for his great enthusiasm and constant encomagement. Callum l'v1allby Captain

Our first win of the season came against Peninsula in round 6, within tile first few minutes Liv Dalton slotted away tile first of our 11 goals of the day. ~\vith 3 games in 6 days near the end ofTerm 2, the pressure was on. The girls again rose to the challenge and managed to come away with 2 wins and a 2-0 loss to Carey, tile eventual winners of this year's competition. Our defense line consisting of Georgia Pugh, Edith Lightfoot, Lyndall Watson, Louise Beggs and Liana Banjanin, was a force with which to be reckoned. With Allanah I\ litchell the ever improving and fearless goalie, it seemed next to impossible for other teams to find the back of the net. We were up for a challenge against Haileybury, but with the skillful young gun Jasmine leading the way, tile opposition was shocked with the talented College team., \Vith Grace, Laura and Annabelle on the wings, I Iaileybmy was held to a mere 2 goals. Before we knew it, we were playing ilie last gaIne of ilie season. And for the girls, it had come way too quiddy.

Soccer: Girls Inter B Team The Inter B girls' season of 2009 saw many new faces to the game. Throughout llie year we saw huge improvements in all tile new and old soccer players so that we became a tough challenge for our opponents each week. The girls were always eager and enthusiastic to play and each played a vital part in our team. Our determination \\'as not always matched with a desired result \vith the team winning only om first game of the season, but this didn't dampen om spirits as each week we fought to improve our skills and team work. Whether it was our strikers, midfield, badiline or om determined goalie, we remained enthusiastic and optimistic throughout the season and we all showed vast improvement in our slillls for the yeaI' ahead. We'd like to thank om coach i\ II Andrews for his support throughout the season.

Geelong College athletes are often Lhe underdogs in the APS competition, but we have become known for our competitive spirit and determination and Lhis was also true in 2009. Although we finished tenth this year. there were a number of outstanding performances and twenty-five personal bests from our aLhletes at the APS Sports.

In Term 3 our Knockout teams did well to qualify for the State Final, where the Senior Boys finished third in the Division 1 Final and the junior Boys won Division 2. Some very good work was done in the holidays by those athletes who attended the six sessions held at Landy Field. At the APS Combined Sports, our sprinters led the way with Fraser Russell's two third places in the Open 200m and 400m, both in School Record time. Callen Wade, Alex

I \\'ould single out Theresa' follo\\ing achie\ 'elIlents for particular attention: the introduction in 200 of Passion for Performance. a weekend-long dance \\'orkshop for tudents from the Geelong region and beyond that pro\'ed immediately popular and helped position the school positively in the performing arts, also yielding some \\'elcome enrolments; a substantial increase in the performance of ammal gi\iug from belo\\' S50,OOO in 2006 to just o\,er Sl-1O.000 in 2009; the formalisation of a bequest program (the ..\ lorrison Society') \\'hich \\'as successfully launched in October 2009; the coming to fruition in _-m'ember 2009 of ParenL'\et,pro\iding many features that College frunilies had been \\'anting for some time; enhancements to the look of Ad Astra which has become more \ibrant. colourful and reader friendly; the dC\'elopment (together \\ ith .\ 1rs .\ lary .\lason) of'Career Edge' breakfasts as a \'el1icle to help students connect \\'ith our Old Collegian network and become more career sa\''}'. Paraliel with these school orienlated developmeI1ts. Theresa worked very producti\'e1y as Executive Officer to both the Old Geelong Collegians' Association and the Geelong College Foundation, Al! in all, Theresa's contribution to the school has been a higllly valuable and subslantial one, and I have deeply appreciated her

personal qualities as well: modesty, grace, integrity and cheerfulne s. The school i indeed in her debt. Dr Pauline Tw·ner. Plincipal
