This second edition of Jigsaw has met every hope and expectation alluded to in the first edition.
This magazine aims to tell the story of our school, from the daily events to the very special achievements of the year. It is a magazine for everyone - our students, staff, parents, ex-students, ex-staff and future students; and so we have tried to bring snippets from all of these groups together to represent the whole community. Our school is very open and welcoming. -inil br I his reason parents, ex-students and staff are integral to and very much pail of tire daily life. This magazine captures the essence of our community.
Stories are very important. They become the myths of the future and within them lies our heritage which is passed from one generation to the next. With digital technology, our stories can be seen as powerful colour images. Jigsaw provides a very lively and entertaining record of the past few months. Small vignettes focus on individual successes which are shared across the school. These small articles are particularly enjoyable. They show just how busy the days at IGS are and the enormous variety of activities that take place within our school. I love the fact that this maga7ine can weave so many different people and their stories from all parts of our school life together, to create the texture of our school.
Jigsaw is a great success and I congratulate our editor, Valerie Bohie, on her initiative this year in bringing this project to fruition. I am confident that it is now well established as an important text that will be collected by families, along with other memorabilia of their child's school years. I know you will enjoy this second edition for 2004.
At the beginning of Term 4 we held a special assembly for the induction of our new Student Leaders. The parents and I are very proud of this group that has moved into the role of leadership for the final year at IGS. Each will focus on a particular area of interest, expertise or experience, but together they provide strong exemplars of commitment, participation and passion.

Throughout 2004, various excitable primary students have been dipping their fingers into a multitude of• activities provided by the Science Department. It is always so nice to see beaming faces as Double Helix, an After SLI100I Upper Primary Club, tackle
the world of construction, developing the sturdiest boxes, bridges and buildings. It was certainly exciting when Ilie siTlallest member of the class
was placed upon eggs without a single crack. They also tried their hand at Chemistry when they examined the properties of moon goo, a wildly entertaining slime that can, with time
and patience, be converted into paint.
For the first time at IGS, due to popular
demand, we began Little Helix, a Club
aimed at the Lower Primary who in a
matter of weeks became young
palaeontologists, able to study fossils
and create their own dinosaurs. A
favourite was definitely the Astrodon or Star Tooth, which all decided was
safer remaining extinct.
We had some fun creating our own
face paint with Year 6 on International
Day as we crushed chalk for its
pigments. Although a little chaotic,
everyone had a laugh at the artistic temperaments that appeared from
nowhere.
Overall, things are fun if a little hectic

Understanding Australia's need for design and innovation, and the importance of connecting people within our society, has been the focus of study for Design and Technology students this semester. Each year level has explored and created designs that meet the needs of specified target markets but also provide an insight into other perspectives and cultural values.
Year 7 learnt about market research techniques when they visited Year 3 and 4 classes to interview them about thpir likpc and dislikes, abilities and interests. The Year 7 students used this information to help them design and create a new board-game, including the game packaging and a promotional poster. Students used digital graphic software and their imagination to complete in
total 76 different board-games. Of course they then had to test their final design solutions by re-visiting Years 3 and 4 to play the games!
Year 8 enriched their studies of a second language by exploring the architectural design style of the country in which their second language is spoken. Students explored past and current architectural trends and learnt skills in architectural modelling. They then transposed this knowledge into the design of a buildinq facade for a new restaurant for innercity Sydney.
The Year 9/10 elective students explored the designs and technologies of other cultures for their International Festival design project. The students were required to write their own projects
based on an identified need within an International Festival. The realisations from this project included costumes, jewellery, T-shirt graphics, websites, toys, gift boxes and street parade floats.
Completed design projects for D & T students this year have included Motion Toys and Robotics (Year 7) Sterling Silver Jewellery and Website design (Year 8) and Ambient Lighting (Years 9/10).

Our Living Eggs project was a great success and a wonderful learning experience for the Preschool and Transition children.
We had an intense and incredible 2 weeks of learning. The children's sense of wonder and curiosity was delightful and their empathy was heart-warming. They were very concerned that the incubator and subsequent brooder could not possibly replace "mama hen." Therefore we supplied plenty of love (and possible squashy moments) as well as food, water, warmth and a clean environment. Thanks
to all parents and friends who showed an interest in our project - it makes the learning experience so much more intense and worthwhile with this strengthened home to school link.
The children were so engaged in so many differing ways - some were keen to sit back, observe and recount their stories, some wanted to handle the little chicks constantly while others wanted to draw, paint or create playdough chickens.
Ann-Kathrin Kiehn Head of Preschool
Last August, several students from Years 5 & 6 participated in Robocup Junior along with schools from all over NSW.
The Venue was the University of NSW in the Square House. It was really fun! Nobody was expecting to get a place but we tried our hardest considering that we had only had a basic training course and it was our first time.
For the dancing category our 2 teams were first up - we were a bit nervous but we still had a go. We had to start our robots dancing to music in a 3 metre square in the middle of a huge room with the judges and everyone else watching. You lost points if your robot went outside the square. My team's robot worked perfectly but stopped under the time limit
and lost points. Later we were all interviewed about how we made our robots and this went really well.
Two people tried the Rescue Category where you had to make your robot stay on a track. The Soccer Category is a big challenge which we can look forward to next year. This is played in a box on the floor with two robots for each side, a goal keeper and a striker.
Overall we all had a great day and learnt a lot from watching all the entries, and came up with some good ideas about what's good to do and what's best not to do. We all want to do it again and hope we can expand our expertise next year

Language is part of our children's lives and it unites us all to be part of the came family in spirit. From cooking napoletana sauce in the Italian Preschool class to studying plant life in the Year 4/5/6 German class, getting caught up with the 'language fever' at IGS is part of everyday life.
The Year 2 Japanese class performed "Momotaro" (Peach Boy) and sang a song for the Preschool children. They did a fantastic job. The preschool children listened rapturously, even those who don't study Japanese, which goes to show that language crosses all barriers!! The Year 2 children also had fun describing monsters:

The Germans had their Faschingsfest (end of winter celebration, like Carnivale) on Sunday 29 August at the Holdsworth Community Center in
Woollahra. Kindergarten children, Year 1 and Year 2 children plus many siblings all came in fabulous costumes, as did many parents. There was a beautiful singalong and a presentation of the characters - all in German!
Year 4/5/6 German students studied the planets. They did some amazing power point presentations and their knowledge about space and planets has increased greatly.
The story of 'Jack and the Beanstalk' ('Giacco ii Fagiolo') is always a hit, but reading and performing it in Italian for the Year 1 students was lots of fun. Making mobile phones and learning to respond on the phone in Italian in different situations was an enjoyable task for the Year 3's.
Learning about associated problems, causes, consequences and solutions affecting our environment was a challenging hut rewarding iinit for the Year 5 Italian class, as was the work on creating information reports on various animals for the Year 6 students.

The final formal event for our Year 12 students took place on Friday 24 September.
It had already been a very emotional day for the students who had started the day with a breakfast with the staff. This was followed by the formal and informal farewell assemblies
Despite the teary exit at about 1.30, by the evening the students turned up looking smart and glamorous. The speeches throughout the evening elicited tears and laughter, and provided a fitting tone to the farewell for our studeflts.-Many thanks to the Year 11-parents and students, and to the staff who helped with the organisation of the event.
