little more about it. I came to accept that the statement reflected the 111:tgilitillie of the change for Sport and Physical Education at Mandeville.

When I first arrived at Mandeville. netball was

the only sport played iii the school. The "Sport Centre" was then a room in the old home of the

Brash family. now the Principal's Office in the

Junior School. Sports days then were happy affairs revolving around marching. hall gaines and novelty races. At the Junior School Sports the winners proudly accepted boiled sweets as prizes.

Through the years the hub of the grow'iiig Sport department was to be found in a succession of unlikely locations: a tin shed near the back gate, a room iii the groundsman's house (near the "beer garden"). part of the stables, a shed near the tradesmen's entrance and a box in the old grotto.

During these years netball and tennis continued to flourish and gradually new sports were introduced.

Second Row: L-R

1985 has been an extremely busy, but enjoy-

able year for "music making" in the Junior School.

The 'Choir Open Day' held on May 3rd was our initial attempt to show parents and friends a typical choir 'working session'. This gave the girls the opportunity to experience performance in a relaxed atmosphere. During June. thirteen girls from our Junior Orchestra participated in a Combined Junior Schools Orchestral Workshop held at Fintona Junior School. The month of June heralded a new program of work for our Junior Orchestra. designed to stimulate sight reading and overall playing skills through the Kodaly method.

All girls responded with enthusiasm and liave worked very hard to achieve a high standard. We

also welcomed the Recorder Group into our orchestra and have enjoyed the challenge of combining a variety of instruments.

During July and August the choir sang at the Victorian State School Music Association's Festi28

Prep to Six.

Tenii three began in earliest with prep,arations

for the Mary Ward Concert. Many extra practises were held for the Junior Orchestra and Choir and

we were thrilled with the way girls met the cliallenge of performance. On October 13th, the choir

led the singing at the Year 3 First Communion Mass held at St. Peters Church Toorak and we

concluded our year with a final 'Christmas Orchestral Workshop'during December.

My thanks to all music staff: in particiilar Mrs.

Barbara Johnston: Mr. Rupert Guenther, Mr. Richard Webb and Miss Pat Mo)lan for their unfailing help witli orchestra: to Sr. Maria and Miss Robyn Horner for their continual support and in-

novative suggestions: and finally to all parents who have so willingly attended our performances.

CREATIVE STUDIES The rumblings of the Blackburn Report have consolidated the Creative Studies' Programme as an integral and vital part of the school's curriculum. It

appears that practical skills in all subject areas are going to be stressed iii future assessment in the upper echelons of the school. Also. iii this year of celebration of Mary Ward's vision. the Creative Studies' Programme is a dyn.imic witness to the Loreto 1·dueational Philosophy. in that. through the Programme we endeavour to develop the gifts and talents of all individuals and encourage the creative and constructive use of leisure via means not catered for iii the formal academic curricillum.

DRAMA - "THE SERVANT OF TWO MASTERS"

After what seemed like an eternity of rehearsals. which were enjoyable anyway. and various sicknesses anti accidents, ''The Servant ofTwo Masters"

finally made it to the stage on May 2nd and 3rd.

Nicci Hicks. Margie Ralph and Justine Press were the lucky threesome who were given the chance to represent Mandeville iii this once in a

lifetime experience. From St. Kevin's were Paul Bateman. Stephen Horsley. Brian Downie, Michael

Napoli, Roll MeGregor. Cameron Martin. Rowan Lodge and Michael Siu. We would also like to congratulate Mrs. Kate Birch and Mr. Peter Hall.

Despite the brilliance of the final production. one of the best results from a Mandeville/St. Kevin's Production is the chance to make and

keep new fi-iends.

HISTORY AT MANDEVILLE

The challenge of any faculty must be to desigii a curriculum that attempts to respond in a broad sense to an increasingly diverse and dissenting

society, attempting to provide students witii hollie firm moral. academic and personal gitidelines to deal with aii increasingly complex and confusing world. This challenge must also be itispired by a vision.

For me such a vision is energized by Christianity.

Sr. Roberta Hakendorf I.B.V.M., the 1984 editor of the Loreto Education Bulletin iii her first vol-

unic asked the question, how do we achieve the Christian ideal in education: She writes that

Cliristialiity offers life lived to the full. "the

glory of God is nian fully alive", and a way of ful-

46

fillment, "I have come that you may have life, and have it inore abundantly". A Christian, she concludes, must be realistic and well informed

about the world, ready to intlilence eveiits and ready to speak out. Thus a Christian must be well

driving force in realizing such an ideal.

'To know and linderstand one's past is to know and understand one's self'.

Through the study of history we try to give potency and meaning to the present. To this extent history is myth making. But myths are central

to the perpetuation of all that we believe is sacred iii our cultural heritage and thus in ourselves.

Myths are also the way we legitimize our culture and empower ourselves to face the future confidently no matter how dimly that future is perceived.

Returning to Loreto, 1985, Mary Ward reinains an inspiring woman. But summoning heroines from the past can be challenging. They do not set down an easy act to follow. Who can be so dedicated and take such risks? Is heroism of that kind out of

place today?

But Mary's spiritual testament is reassuring and

simple, requiring only faith and a reasonable understanding. The spiritual dispositions of freedom, justice and sincerity should shine in her followers and be handed on in her tradition.

Success was not a value. Setbacks and frustrations

were accepted by Mary as graciously and calmly as compliments of success. Humble and self-effacing

she wished above all else to be spiritually associated with the poor: Sr. Kathleen Brennan I.B.V.M.

YEAR 7,1985.

Going from Year 6 to Year 7 is certainly a big

jump. The first day we were petrified. standing iii huddled little groups nibbling tingernails and talking our heads off. None of tls really kiiew what to expect as we stepped into our new Year 7 classroom. only that it would be a lot of hard work. Iii a couple of days we had settled in and were already 1111.!Ch rlere grown lip.

Our first real opportunity to get to know lieu

girls and teachers was the annual Year 7 Camp which was held at Canipaspe Downs in Kyneton.

Out of all the activities we did. canoeing was definitely the most enjoyable. but also disastrous for the teachers, who hail to fetch several capes

from the squishy bottom of the freezing lake! We think Miss Winship was the most unliicky teachbr of all because while she was canoeing with another girl. two girls in another canoe came lip and started splashing her, filling the conoe with water. Miss Winship was almost drowned:

At day time we were around teacliers being angelic little girls. BUT. . . .at night time when the 'ights had been switched off. the raging parties broke out amongst the cal,ins. and they didn't stop until the early hours of the morning.

Other activities included a

rope

course.

bushwalking and orienteering. To end our stay at camp. each group put on a littie performance, inclucling the teachers.

Towards the end of Term 1. we started

preparing for the Performing Arts Festival. which was held in early June at the Robert Biackwood

Hall. It was a great success and Barry won both awards. It certainly was a totally new experience for.is.

An enthusiastic group of girls this year started new Year 7 Choir, conducted by Mrs Strong. They already have come a close second iii the Dandenong Eisteddfod, and they are singing in the Mary Ward concert in third term.

55

There was one day late iii second term when there was only Year 7's and Year 12's iii the school. That day we had a sausage sizzle und every

one had at least three sausages each. Then lollies were served and they were gone iii two seconds

tlat. Games of poison ball. netball and skippy were played and there was also an attempt at barn dancing too. 1·veryone fully enjoyed the day.

This >'ear was an extremely busy year for

Year 7's and we have en.joyed our first experience with the Senior School. We hope the next lot ot Year 7's will enjoy thi· Senior School as much as

THE YEAR 10 CAMP

At the beginning of this year. all the Year 10 girls were invited to go on a camp held in Boronia.

When it was mentioned to us we were a little

hesitant. but after learning more about it we were

willing to go. As I was new, it was a good opportunity for me to get to know the girls and teachers better.

So. one rainy Friday afternoon we j-topped on

the Boronia train at Richmond. After arriving at Boronia station. we had to walk for iniles but soon

we heard a bus coming and we all boarded it thankfullv.

At our destination. we were filled with new

energy and excitement. During the weekend we were to spend there. we had a Mass. group aCtiVities and discussions in w'hich we talked about

ourselves and about the camp. Our free time was spent on the trampoline, in the pool. playing gailies or doing diity. I felt that the night-time was the best. when we had sing-alongs und other

activities, and then, eventually, we would fall into bed. Overall. I think tliat everyone really enjoyed themselves because everyone participated enthus-

iastically and was really great fun!

Buffy Mc Laren

The Red Cross Door Knock Appeal on Saturday, 1(,th March was a tremendous success.

Over sixty girls participated and a total of $2.003.16 was raised.

Although dark clouds. pouring rain and strong

winds threatened to spoil our day, the girls involved seemed to finish with enthusiasm.

Several teachers. including Mr. Mulcally. collected us from our assigned streets and drove us back to school where we were greeted with cold drinks. ice-creams and coffee or tea.

Mrs Monalian. the Malvern Divtrict Organiser

for the Appeal. was delighted and extremely grateful when she was given the money on Saturday afternoon. An enormous alliount of

money was raised for the few hours which the girls spent collecting donations.

Due to Mr. Mulcaliy's efforts in organising this event. the day was very successful. The money

THE LATEST INVESTMENT

Sally Evans

Admittedly. tile directions do look simple. There are no complicated switches or dials like those which adorned the homely face of its ancient

predecessor. just :iii ingenious little panel. One touch gives the dating operator a copy of anything, and, as I have discovered, multiple copies.

Last week I found myself with no money and five pages of French verbs to copy, so I cunningly

persuaded one gullible librarian to lend me tile master key to the machine.

What presumption on my part! Who am 1 to deprive it of twenty-five cents?

I approached

The

somewhat

cautiously and inserted the key. The lock fustened

onto it like a feeding shark! I grew apprehensive.

After digesting this (no pun intended). i

presently worked up enough courage to push 'GO'.

To my surprise. The Machine began to churn out Evelyn England

neat little duplicates of conjugated French verbs. 1 soon finished atl I had to do but unfortunately it

did not seem to realise. More and more copies of the present subjunctive and the past perfect were being printed.
