I am writing this Principal’s report in Peter Chapman’s absence as Peter is on sabbatical leave until early September. He is presently in Africa and about to undertake an immersion experience in Kenya, which has been organised through the Christian Brothers in Rome. In addition, during his time away Peter will attend the Old Boys Reunion in London on 4 August.

The school term, which concludes at the end of this week, has featured some wonderful achievements and events. GPS Debating has possibly never seen a bigger night than 2 June when our Senior A team (supported by several hundred vocal Terrace students) defeated our traditional debating rivals, Brisbane Grammar School, to claim an undefeated premiership – our first since 1981. Congratulations to the members of the team – Oliver Badenhorst, Mitchell Grady, Chris Maguire, James Warry and Andrew Quinn. The College Mooting team (Jacob Lehr, Ed Kingswell and Andrew Quinn) has again performed well and has qualified for the Australian finals, which will be held

next term Photo below]. This year’s school musical, SherWoodstock, staged with All Hallows’ School late in May, was a rollicking success and a credit to the creative talent and dedication of many students from both schools, who featured on stage, in the band or who worked behind the scenes. Our CIC Cross Country team performed strongly to win the Percentage Trophy and was placed fourth overall.

One of the sporting events of the year so far was in Round Two of GPS Rugby and Football when we hosted Nudgee College in what was a wonderful celebration of our great rivalry. In a day that saw over 40 spirited matches, the First XV were narrowly beaten by a point while the First XI shared the points with a draw. Other notable events during Second Term included the Parent and Friends Information Evening which featured leading adolescent psychologist Dr Andrew Fuller while the Terrace Cardinals hosted a spectacular Art Show in early June which was a great success.

During the term the Alumni of Gregory Terrace were prominent in a variety of capacities. Our ANZAC Day service featured several Terrace Old Boys who were ex-servicemen. Following this, the Roll of Honour of Old Boys, who had served in WWII, was unveiled in a moving ceremony in the Chapel of the Holy Family.

This project was made possible through

the funding of the GTOBA and the College Foundation, as well as the dedicated work of Br Fergus Gagen (Editor of the Terracian), Mr Neil Doherty (College Archivist), mother Mrs Jayne Hackett and Old Boy Mr Kevin Haley.

The GTOBA has again been involved in the selection process of the Year 11 International Exchange to the USA. Many thanks to Mr Mark Shaw and Mr Luke Murphy who were part of the panel who selected Mark Jeffrey and Matthew Marchesi to visit Chaminade College in St Louis and Nicholas Gattas to venture to Archbishop Moeller College in Cincinatti. The College also welcomed back a significant group of Old Boys, who presented to our current students as part of our annual Terrace Careers Expo. Last week the College Foundation and College Leadership Team hosted our Year 5 Parents of 2007 at an informal welcome evening. Amongst the group of incoming parents were 16 Old Boys returning to Terrace, a healthy sign of the ongoing school pride there is within this community.

This week is Mrs Patricia Barry’s final week of teaching after 25 years of dedicated service to this school. Patricia commenced teaching here in 1982, at a time when she was only the third female teacher on staff. Since that time she has taught and influenced countless numbers of students in History and French.

Her enthusiasm and love of teaching never waivered and in recent years as Co-ordinator of French, she has co-ordinated trips to Noumea and France. These trips as well as her embracing of technology have helped the love of language develop within our boys. Au Revoir, Madame Barry!

In conclusion as a community Gregory Terrace continues to be moved deeply by the news coming out of East Timor in recent times.

Through our Campus Ministry programs we have developed a strong relationship with members of the East Timorese community, in particular with our twinning school – Blessed Magdalena of Canossa High School in Comoro – as well as through our support of the projects of Br Bill Tynan and the Christian Brothers in East Timor. We ask you to pray that peace will soon return in this troubled land where the ministry of Edmund Rice was pioneered by Terrace Old Boy Br Dan Courtney.

Mr Peter Fullagar, Acting College Principal

Revisiting College Hall Twenty-five years at Terrace MRS PATRICIA BARRY (1982-2006) For a quarter of a century Mrs Barry has been an outstanding teacher and tutor at Terrace. Those taught by Mrs Barry or sharing her many excursions/tours of Noumea or France would appreciate her dedication and organisation. We thank her for her example, genuine interest and support of this community.

We wish Patricia and her husband, Tony, “Bonne Chance” in their retirement on the Sunshine Coast.

GIL KENNEDY WITH HIS WIFE AND DAUGHTERS AT TERRACE Recently Mr Gibson was happy to show past student Gil Kennedy around the College. Gil had not been here since as a schoolboy in 1929-31. The trip was a surprise organised by his daughters - a visit to his old house and schools he attended in Brisbane. He had spent his working life in Melbourne.

His name is also on the Honour Board of Terrace students who enlisted in the armed forces during World War 2.

Class of 1964 at their 2004 Reunion “The Senior Class of 1964 started out as the Grade Four class of 1956 and we held our sixth reunion in September 2004. This class has had five-yearly reunions since 1979.

“Several of our old teachers were able to come: Br Dan Marzorini who taught us in Sub-Senior has since died early in 2006

in his 89th year. May he rest in peace. Br Frank Cruice, aged 76, taught us in Grade 7. They travelled from the NSW Province to be with their past students. From Queensland came Br Brian Grenier (Grade 6) and Br Barry Buckley (Sub-Junior and Senior).Apologies were received from NSW Province members Br Len Hanlon (Grade 5) and Br Stan Cusack (Scholarship).

“Most of the 60 past students came from Queensland, but a small number had come from NSW, Victoria and PNG. Especially missed was the bubbly presence of our classmate Br Dan Courtney who since the accident in East Timor in 2001 has been in a coma and is now in a vegetative state.”

The Pilgrim Statue from Fatima visits Terrace in June, 1951 These photos were taken by Harold Gates, father of Terrace student John A. Gates who was at Terrace when the statue from Fatima was travelling around the world and visited Terrace in July 1951. There is some deterioration from mildew, etc, but we are very grateful to see what we looked like fifty-five years ago. Walking near the

CADETS AT THEIR FIRST CAMP AT GREENBANK IN AUGUST 1952

The 313 cadets enjoyed the new experience of Greenbank, especially the two evening experiences of observation and movement by night. This year Terrace had reached an enrolment of 600, but some 250 were in the primary school.

TERRACE CADETS JOIN THE CROWDS IN QUEEN STREET

No one is sure what the occasion was now.

Perhaps the celebration of the Queen’s Coronation Day in June 1953 when Terrace joined in the general euphoria throughout the world of the British monarchy after the long years of war and “doing without” to start again with a new young Queen. In the early 1950s Anzac Day was a very quiet celebration in Australia.

Pictures from the past.....

TREACY BUILDING IN 1885

This is the view from across Gregory Terrace when a Mercy Sister took this photo in 1885. The pictures remained on the wall of a Mercy convent in Ireland until recognised by a visitor from Australia.

The “Boarding Wing” was still two years away, although many resident students were living in the house.

All the boarders moved to Nudgee in 1891 and Terrace became a “city school” only.

In 1885 the one-storey College Hall was the only other building on the site.

Old Boy Veteran At the unveiling of the WW2 Servicemen’s Honour Board, [Front cover] I was surprised to see how many names I recognised and saddened to realise how many lost their lives in that conflict. I had read a news item in the December 2005 issue of “Terracian” about a former class mate, Jim Maunsell, and I thought you may be interested in other past pupils of the same vintage. Jim was of course well known as a top grade Rugby player, whereas my sporting ability was limited to “batting on a sticky wicket and kicking the ball right out of the court”.

Below is a photo of myself taken by the University of Qld. The story starts at a reunion lunch for UQ

graduates of 50 or more years standing held at the Custom House on 20 August last year, where I found myself being asked to move a vote of thanks to the guest speaker. I think this was due to some skulduggery on the part of our oldest son Dr Mike Bourke of Canberra who had some time earlier visited the UQ Dept.of Agriculture to discuss some project.

My main claim to fame is that I had four sons attend Terrace :Richard Michael (1958-1964) B.Ag Sc (U.Q).

M.Ag (Uni of PNG) and Ph.D (A.N.U.). Mike lives in Canberra with his own Consulting Company working mainly on Aid Projects in the Pacific area.

Andrew Charles (1958-1966) B.Sc. (U.Q). Andy is a Geologist, living in Perth. He spends his time running around the world, drilling holes in the ocean floor looking for oil.

Robert John (1963-1970) M.B.B.S. (U.Q). Bob is a country G.P. with a practice based in Roma and is on call to the Roma Hospital to perform anaesthetics when needed.

David Luton (1974-1977) David is a part time Apiarist, living in Ipswich, but is often away from home doing I.T. network support, mainly for mining companies.

Photo of Working Bee, 1995 Many thanks to Ms Claire Vanderloos for informing us that the “Unknown” in the photo on p4 of the last “Terracian” was her husband, Clem Vanderloos, who was the organiser of rowing tents when their sons were rowing at Terrace, 1993-2001.

“We really enjoyed the comraderie associated with preparing the Boatshed and that photo brought back happy memories of our time with Terrace Rowing.” (Terrace is grateful!)

My own story is very brief: 1939 - Senior Terrace, 1943 - B.E. (U.Q) 1944/1946 - Royal Aust.

Navy, 1947/1949 - Design Engineer with City Electric Light Company, 1949/1983 - ran my own Engineering business Since then I have been actively engaged in a major research project involving trying to ascertain the most efficient and speedy method of doing absolutely nothing.

On the Feast of St Mark we were very fortunate to have the Archbishop of Brisbane, John Bathersby (an old boy from Nudgee), come and preside over Eucharist for our Year 12 students as well as induct the special Ministers of the Eucharist for 2006. The Archbishop spoke very fondly of his time with the Christian Brothers at Nudgee and recalled playing rugby games against Terrace at Victoria Park many years ago.

During the homily and throughout the Mass he addressed two key points - one being the mission of the Church and how we are all involved in the proclamation of the reign of God and the second being that we are all called to have the courage to live out this mission. He challenged all present to have

the eyes to really see what was happening in the world, from a position of justice, peace and hope. He also expressed his happiness at being invited and how he loved coming and talking to young people.

It was truly a humbling experience for all of

This van, presented by the estate of Mr James Mahoney Junior, and staffed each day by College staff, Old Boys, parents and students provides a warm breakfast daily to those inner-city homeless who lack food and warm clothing. It is truly an example of an Edmund Rice charitable work.

Lest we forget.

Thanks Special thanks to Mrs Jayne Hackett and Mr Kevin Haley (GT 1956-59) for the many hours they gave out of love for Terrace to prepare for this Honour Board. Many thanks from us all.

Photo 4: TERRACE FOUNDATION Mr Brian Flannery speaks on behalf of the Terrace Foundation in organising the Commonwealth support for this project, of work done in research by Mr Doherty of the Archives and his helpers and of the part played by the GTOBA in helping in various ways with getting Old Boys to asist with their memories.

The Roll of Honour is certainly a memorial to many Terracians working together for the general good of us all.

Photo 5: Fr Jim Bishop SM during the blessing of the Roll of Honour.

Photo 6: JOHN REID (1939) CHECKS THE ROLL OF HONOUR This photo (taken on the Terrace Anzac Day commemoration) shows something of the Roll of Honour. There are nine rows of names with over a hundred in each row.

The College had been expecting closer to 400 names on the list. However, as more and more were uncovered by diligent research and the total passed the thousand mark, it became clear that the lettering would have to be smaller than we had hoped.

But at last we have a true list of most of those who joined the armed forces in Australia during World War 2. It will join the World War 1 Board in College Hall.

So, after a lot of hard research by many people, something of the war effort of the Terrace family can be recognised: servicemen in every war front all over the world, Terracians offering their lives in blazing planes, in jungle swamps, in arctic seas and in terrible prison camps. And it was all done for our Australian way of life.

An appreciation of the day From Miss Carmel Bolger, sister of Tom and Hugh Bolger both killed in action: (To Mr Chapman): On behalf of my brother Paul and myself I wish to thank you for the blessing of the Roll of Honour. We are honoured that Tom and Hugh are remembered in this beautiful way.

I know that this occasion did not just happen, but was the work of so many people - I don’t know who they were, but all of them deserve congratulating. I mention also the boys whose behaviour and demeanour gave new meanng to the phrase “Gentlemen of Terrace”.

From Mr Alan Thompson (1940-41): Please pass on to Mr Chapman my heartfelt appreciation for the whole concept for the Roll of Honour for the 1939-1945 Terrace veterans. Only superlatives could adequately express the tremendous nostalgia and comradeship I felt at the Chapel dedication and the refreshments afterwards. The whole College should be congratulated: the Principal, the supporting staff and the young men of Terrace for the amazing and outstanding work and research done before and on the day

He used to talk to me occasionally of the Brothers who taught him in Senior in 1937 and 1938. He had a special affection for Br Hardie and Br Watson. Br Hardie left the Brothers in 1939 and by a great coincidence they met at Konedobu near Port Moresby in 1943 - Captain Radford and Gunner Hardie! David said, “Captain and Gunner sat at the side of the road and had a great old yarn!” He also met Morgan and Harry Windsor, both medical officers in Port Moresby. Their brother Gerard who was killed in the RAAF in Europe had been David’s classmate in Terrace.

Like many other veterans he found it difficult to settle down to a UQ Dentistry degree and withdrew from it. He found a position that appealed to him: he was a returning officer for the Australian Electoral Commission and was for many years based in Kedron.

David Radford (1921-2006) David Radford (GT1935-1938) was one of a group of Old Boys who rarely missed a College Gallipoli Remembrance. In the photo [At left] he is in the middle of the front row.

Back Row: Chris Pozzi (then RAAF Woomera), Redmond Quinn (1936, RIP), Bernie Lewis (1939, RIP), John Reid (1939), Barry O’Malley (1938, RIP)

He met and married Carmel O’Brien in 1950 and they had four children.

Front Row: Merv Warren (1931), David Radford (1938, RIP), Dick Grant (1940) Before the War broke out, David had been a citizen soldier, but when War was declared in 1939 he was ordered to report to 9th Batallion headquarters “in full marching order and with whatever tinned food could be spared”. (We were a pretty innocent lot in 1939!)

Japan entered the war and by June 1942 David was deployed with the 7th Brigade to Milne Bay In Papua New Guinea. In August the Japanese landed an invasion force and suffered one of their first defeats in the Pacific War.

Sir Edward Stewart (1924-2006) Sir Ted Stewart (GT 1932-1939) was one of the very few Knights of the Realm who were Old Boys of Terrace.

Four of his sons attended the College: Jim 1973, Bill 1975, Ted 1976, Andrew 1980 and then five of his grandsons: Edward 2002, Tim 2004, Robert 11K, Jonathan 11T and Thomas 7K. Other Terracians offer them all our sympathy on their loss.

He grew up in the hotel industry and finished his education at Terrace with Senior in 1939. His father, Charles Jackson Stewart, established the family in the liquor trade industry and Sir Edward served on many boards of major Queensland companies, and spent three years as National President of the Australian Hotels Association.

Sir Edward always had an interest in horses - and this is often mentioned in the “Class Photo 1: Sixty Years Reunion (1999) for the 1939 Seniors: (From left): Sir Ted Stewart, Harry Lewis, Norm Morris, Bernie Knapp, Len Lather (1938) and John Reid.

These boys, most now deceased, were taught by Br L. Edwards (who died 14 June 2006 in Melbourne) and I know that Bill Glasson, a great friend of Sir Ted through his life, visited Brother some years ago in Melbourne. In 1934 there were 12 in Grade 3, 14 in Grade 4 and 20 in Grade 5. Of the forty-four students in the photo, thirty served in the Armed Forces and three died in action.

Jottings” that were in issues of the Terrace magazine over the years. We met his horse “Cactus” in various classes and in 1938 we read, “Congrats, Ted, to your pony for taking third place at the Show.” This developed later when he and his bush poet friend, Bill Glasson, competed in shows with their horses. He also had an interest in horse racing and horse breeding. He sold the last of his thoroughbreds in 2004. His horse, General Fox, had won the Queensland Cup nearly fifty years before - in 1956.

He also did much charitable work - generally unknown to most people.

He wrote in 2003, “I remember with pride that I led Australian infantry, the salt of the earth, in battle with humility and they gave me their trust and with gratitude for their loyalty and comradeship.” He enjoyed robust health until his final battle with cancer. He is survived by his wife, Carmel, and their four children and their families - including six grandchildren.

Those who attended any performance of SherWoodstock at the Tivoli at the end of May would agree that it was an enertaining, energetic, polished performance and that the cast, crew and orchestra deserve congratulations.

It also seemed that the students of both Colleges enjoyed the experience and will have many memories of events over the months of preparation.

Special credit to the Director, Mr Darren Collins, who certainly fulfilled his dream

of staging something quite different from any previous Terrace production and who worked so hard to bring it to fruition.

Credit also belongs to these staff members in particular - Ms Allingham, Mr Baudet, Mrs Claffey, Ms Donohue, Mr Esbensen, Mr Knauth, Mrs Lourundos, Mrs Rooney, Mr Vink, Mrs Watson and Mr Whitehouse; and to those other staff members who gave their support. The final product is something we are all very proud of.

the Story Bridge. In his long retirement he had the vision to build shopping centres, long before cultural changes made them the mega-complexes we know today. In some ways the architecture of the gates reflects his Kippa Ring shopping centre’s functional architecture; straight lines – it would have been the way he wanted it. He would have appreciated the “form” of the gates - their structural simplicity (to take nothing away from them) and the combination of metal and concrete – he would have been interested in the particulars of the gate-opening mechanism of them.

Secondly, he was a considerable sportsman.

In particular he excelled at athletics. That these gates lead to both the College athletics track and the Brother Dillon Boatshed is appropriate. He held the Terrace athletics medals (100 yards, 220 yards) of his late uncle the Terracian, Fergus Durack. He rowed for many years after concluding school.

The Charles Durack Marchant Memorial Gates, Tennyson The Charles Durack Marchant Memorial Gates were blessed by Fr Tyson Doneley MSC on Sunday 21 May 2006 in the presence of the Principal, Mr Peter Chapman, members of the College Leadership Team and descendants of Charles Marchant. It is fitting that Fr Tyson Doneley MSC blessed the gates, as he is the younger brother of the wives of two Terracians, Mrs Camille Marchant (the wife of Charles Durack Marchant) and Mrs Frances Marchant (the wife of Ronald Marchant). It is hoped that Fr Doneley, himself a St Joseph’s Hunter’s Hill student, First XV premiership flyhalf and First XI premiership cricketer and later Queensland Schoolboys coach, sportsmaster and headmaster will have imbued the gates with his blessing.

The blessing was an important day for the grandchildren of the Katter family as they were able to pay small recognition to their grandfather Charles Durack Marchant.

‘Dud’ Marchant as he was known, like so many Terracians of his time was educated by the Christian Brothers at St James’, before coming to Terrace. He had lived at Auchenflower. His mother was a Durack from the great pastoralist family. He was to spend two years at Terrace in 1924-25.

His older brother Ron was also at Terrace during his time. He had followed two of

12 The Terracian - July 2006

his mother’s brothers to Terrace also, Clare Michael and Fergus Durack. Sadly Fergus was to die at Gallipoli. In spelling out Charles Durack Marchant’s full name on the gates, the relevance of lineage through the Durack family and his links to his uncle Fergus are remembered.

The naming of the gates had particular relevance to Charles Durack Marchant for three reasons: Firstly, he was an engineer. He spent his entire career at Evans Deakin rising to the pinnacle of that then great engineering corporation. He supervised the building of portable docks in Darwin after it was bombed in the Second World War. He was to become the joint CEO at Evans Deakin after the death of A. J. Deakin and his uncle Colonel Evans, in charge of the heavy engineering division. His was a life of construction – he was a key engineer for the construction of Photo Above: CHARLES DURACK MARCHANT Winning the Senior 100 yards at the Christian Brothers Sports, Brisbane Exhibition Grounds, 1924 Photo Below: BLESSING OF THE GATES AT TENNYSON From left: Dr Jim Butler (GT 1965), Kathy Butler, Anne-Louise Katter,

Thirdly, these gates lead to the grassed and tree-lined grounds of the playing fields of Tennyson. For Charles Marchant’s nearly thirty years of retirement he cared for the 21⁄2 acres of grounds at the family home, Cubberla, at Kenmore. He fought a constant battle against leaves on his grass. In many ways the large expanses of grass at Tennyson reminded the family of him.

He was a family man. He was married for over fifty years – fathering a large family – with many grandchildren – many of whom have already attended Terrace – with more grandchildren even to follow. The web of the extended family, including many cousins, is great and reads like a historical study of Terrace. Throughout his life he remained a person of faith and would quietly attend Mass at Toowong parish, that faith having been nurtured by his education by the Christian Brothers at Terrace.

Rudyard Kipling’s poem “The Palace” is relevant: Yet I gloried not; I read in the razed foundations the heart of that builder’s heart.

As he had risen and pleaded, so did I understand The form of the dream he had followed in the face of the thing he had planned.

First Terrace Intake to “Waterford” visits Waterford, Ireland

Mr Conor Finn wins National Teaching Award Good teachers are the linchpins of a school which aims to develop the learning potential of every student. Good teachers matter to their students, to their school communities and to society at large.

In Canberra at the end of May, Mr Finn formally received a National Excellence in Teachng Award from the Deputy Leader of the Opposition, Mrs Jenny Macklin.

[Picture at left] He was among fourteen teachers from across Australia to be so recognised and to be presented with a cheque for $5000 for professional development and future projects.

His commitment to the College Campus Ministry, service programs and retreats has been outstanding. The national award also pays tribute to the teachers’ often unsung networks both of colleagues and community that invariably surround and support them.

We emerged from the Fiumicino airport in Rome weary from the twenty hours we’d spent in transit from Brisbane. Although we were tired, none of us could be any more enthusiastic about what lay ahead.

For the rest of our time in Rome we were tourists, guided through the streets and places of Rome and the Vatican by the experienced eye of Mrs Price-Stone. We couldn’t help but stand in awe of the sheer magnificence of St Peter’s Basilica.

Ranging from the complex artwork at one’s feet to the glorious view from the top of the basilica.

Our time in Ireland was spent retracing Edmund Rice’s footsteps through Dublin, Waterford and Callan and experiencing the extraordinary yet humble ministry of the Christian Brothers. We, with Mr Celegato and Mrs Kotzas, came across many remarkable personalties, true to the Irish reputation. However none of us will forget Edmund’s casket as he rested there peacefully in the tranquil light of the stained glass windows of the chapel beside Mt Sion School; it felt as though we were in his presence at that time.

Having experienced the very heart of the Edmund Rice Ministry half way across the world, we realised that, a lot like Edmund, you could work hard at something all your life and never see overly large outcomes, but at least you’ve set up strong foundations. You could be long gone before your work actually pays off in full. I think that this attitude is what can be found in next year’s Year Ten group and the Terrace staff. In the tradition of Edmund Rice and the Christian Brothers, hard work and strong foundations set up at the beginning are a vital part of the continued success at Waterford Place.

GT Under 16 First Eight 2006 breaks Head of the River drought!

For the first time in 10 years, and for only the second time, Terrace has won the Under 16 First Eight’s Race at the GPS Head of the River Championships. The 2006 crew rowed itself into history by beating favourites Churchie (second, 0.9 seconds behind) and Southport (third, 7.9 seconds behind) in the slick 2000m time of 5.59. In a superb and steely performance, the Terrace crew rowed flat out from start to finish, never dropping its rating below 36.5 strokes per minute, and was never headed at any stage.

This year’s crew showed what can be achieved over a short period regardless of previous years’ results. Last year, when the crew was in the Under 15 age group, both the First and Second Quad crews were placed sixth at the Head of the River.

Conversely, while this year’s result augurs well for next year’s Open First Eight, the comparative year to year performance shows that nothing may be taken for

Senior A Debating Team wins GPS Premiership On the first Friday night in June a crowd in excess of 1000 people witnessed a Debating epic. Two highly talented teams from Terrace and Grammar wrestled with a difficult topic about Pakistan. After eighty minutes of contested points, rebuttal and reply speeches the Terrace men came out victorious by one and half points.

College Debating history indicates this is the first time since 1981 that our Senior A has won a Premiership undefeated. Our team of Oliver Badenhorst, Mitchell Grady, Chris Maguire, Andrew Quinn and James Warry deserves the very highest of praise for this momentous season.

Sincere thanks go to our two coaches, Adam Pennicott and Patrick Morgan. (Both from Senior A Debating, 2003) Like many historic moments in our College’s history, the 450 Terrace supporters went away satisfied that they had been part of something special. War cries, chants and support that is evident only on Rugby days echoed through the Great Hall at BGS. We look forward to the QDU Finals series when this team has a chance to make this an

even more memorable year.

Congratulations Senior A on your hard work, your dedication to training and your ability to rise to the occasion.
