KIM HOLMAN Head of Girls Boarding Due to the delayed start to the Term 1, Girls Boarding held their annual House Camp at Tangalooma in Term 3 and did a Day Camp instead. The year could not finish without the obligatory dodgeball game on the beach between Finger vs. Cameron. Cameron had been the victors over the past six years and this year Finger came home with the trophy! It was a nail biter and all involved took this annual game so seriously that we had to invite Mr Holman in to be the judge. The day started with sand tobogganing, on to the dodgeball game and then a swim in the ocean. It was wonderful to see all of our new boarders getting involved and all of our Year 12s leading the charge. In Term 4 we farewelled our Year 12 Boarders with a bigger-than-Ben-Hur day of celebrations which started with breakfast in bed followed by afternoon tea at Chaplain Silke’s, a flash mob dance at a park in Chapel Hill, the Year 11 mandatory 'roast' video for our Year 12 girls, then on to our themed dinners— 'Cameron Goes Coastal' and 'Finger Fever' Following dinner was Mrs Holman’s presentation and gold stars given out by our Year 12s. Finally, everyone huddled together to sing, 'We Were Here'. What a crazy, busy, emotional fun day! Our Year 12s felt the love so the day was a success!
