‘As soon as I heard we were auditioning for the very popular "High School Musical", I knew that I wanted to be part of it. It was truly amazing performing with a committed, enthusiastic and extremely talented cast and I would do it again in a heartbeat.’ Shannon P (Year 9) ‘The most common piece of feedback I received was how great the energy of "High School Musical" was. The cast was so excited and committed to their roles that their elated vibes could be sensed from the back row.’

Georgia D (Year 8)

‘Being involved in the production of "High School Musical" was one of the most rewarding experiences I've had at school to date.’ Eve H (Year 8) ‘"High School Musical" was such an awesome production to be involved in. We had so much fun making it and it was easily one of the best highlights of Year 12.’

In 2016 the Girls Sport Victoria sporting association celebrated 15 years of providing opportunities for participation in elite, competitive and recreational sport for girls across member schools.

The association is always a strong advocate for girls being involved in physical activity and students have access to high level, well run competition as well as a wide range of sporting opportunities. In the years since the sporting association inception around 15,000 girls from 24 schools across Melbourne participate in weekly competitions, carnivals, tournaments and skills development programs.

GSV has been an integral part of our sporting program at Toorak College.

It has given our students the opportunity to get involved in sports that they may not have otherwise tried; it has allowed friendships to form through training and competition; it has seen students reach their full potential by being give the opportunity to compete against other schools.

As part of the 15 year celebrations, schools were asked to submit a list of the coaches who have given 5 years, 10 years and 15 years of service to sport. The coaches are an important part of our program and Toorak College would like to acknowledge the work of our dedicated team:

‘Volleyball has given me the chance to play a sport I probably never would have otherwise played. If there is one piece of advice I can give before I leave, it is to do a sport that gives you this chance. I’m not saying that it necessarily has to be volleyball (but it should be), but just take a leap and sign yourself up for a sport you think you’d never do in another situation. Because before you know it, you’ll be counting down the days until your last exam is over, and if you haven’t taken every chance and opportunity the GSV program has offered you to play sports like volleyball, then you will have missed out.’

Beth D, Volleyball Captain (Year 12)

5 Year Service Ms Georgie Chambers, Mr Dailan Hatherley, Ms Sarah Hosking, Ms Jess Hosking, Ms Rosie Saunders, Ms Danielle Smith, Mr Roger Wiggins.

10 Year Service Mrs Kim Aliotti, Mrs Rachel Halkias, Mr Martin Harrison, Mrs Julie Idzes, Mr Travis Williams, Mr Phil Williams.

15 Year Service Mr Greg Clarnette, Mrs Ru-wen Clarnette, Mrs Michele Coventry, Mrs Lee-Anne Marsh, Ms Kirsten Thomson.

‘The thing that I love e about b being b i iin the h B Badminton d i team KU VJG YC[ VJCV YG CNN YQTM VQIGVJGT 9JGP + ƂTUV DGICP playing Badminton for Toorak, the older girls taught me about this sport, the rules and the tactics. They shared their love of this sport with me… they passed on their spirit. At the time I didn’t understand why they loved it so much but over time my understanding grew and over time I knew I wanted to pass this spirit on to the younger girls at Toorak.’ Jia B, Badminton Captain (Year 12)

In the spirit of House House activities see friendships formed and participation encouraged.

House in 2016 has again been a showcase of the extraordinary culture of participation, fun and friendship that exists at Toorak College. House events offer students the opportunity to participate in a wide range of activities which are always conducted in a fantastic spirit of friendly competition, with a strong emphasis on participation, fun, energy and enthusiasm.

Beyond this, House events also offer an opportunity for the girls to develop teamwork and leadership skills and it is great to see the number of students who rise to the occasion and really grow LQ FRQ¿GHQFH DV PHPEHUV RI D WHDP DQG DV OHDGHUV LQ ZKDW FDQ be a challenging environment.

Not giving up. Rolling with the punches. And, in my opinion a trait which is constantly undervalued but of the utmost importance; kindness. Being compassionate towards everyone, supporting friends and otherwise when they ask, and even when they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t â&#x20AC;&#x201C; accepting people for who they are, and loving them regardless. This is a Toorak trait.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Shakespeare Republic is a culmination of my Drama School training in London, combined with my work at the BBC, being mentored by Sir Nigel Hawthorne and then my time performing with the Australian Shakespeare Company. /Â&#x2026;iĂ&#x192;i Â&#x2C6;Â&#x2DC;yĂ&#x2022;iÂ&#x2DC;ViĂ&#x192; Â&#x153;ÂŤiÂ&#x2DC;i` Ă&#x2022;ÂŤ Â&#x201C;Ă&#x17E; iĂ&#x17E;iĂ&#x192; Ă&#x152;Â&#x153; Ă&#x152;Â&#x2026;i iĂ?Ă&#x152;Ă&#x20AC;>Â&#x153;Ă&#x20AC;`Â&#x2C6;Â&#x2DC;>Ă&#x20AC;Ă&#x17E; relevance Shakespeareâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s works still have and the exciting possibilities when taking those texts written 400 odd years ago and placing them in modern circumstances.
