Gordon Dean Assitant Head of Junior (Religious Education)
For Dean Tarca from 7 Blue 7 Blue…..Coming Through! In Term One we got a new guy, He started off a little shy. But Andrew became really cool, And now he is a part of our school. Mr Maxfield was my new teacher, He has turned out to be quite a preacher. We got our Year 4 peers in Term One, Mine turned out to be my teacher’s son. For science we made poppers for balloons, And mine was working really soon. We read a book about a girl in Afghanistan, Being ruled by the Taliban. In Term Two we had Confirmation, The program was a big sensation. I wasn’t actually being confirmed, But the retreat and mass were superb. At the end of term we had the “Canberra Tour”, I was scared of flying but found a cure. My friends made it a smooth run, And the plane trip was very much fun.

in their powerpoint slide show. A commemorative plaque was also brought up in the offertory procession which will be placed in the Chapel at a later date.
We arrived in Sydney near the coast, I liked the sights there the most. Just down the road was the Opera House, Every sight was good to browse. In Term Three we learnt about the World Wars, They broke about a hundred laws. We also learnt about the Amazon and Daintree, These beautiful Rainforests did interest me. We all had an excellent year, Except for sharing a bit of a tear. Over Dean Tarca’s tragic passing away, But our memories of him will surely stay. This sad time happened in Term Four, Now we have to move on and learn some more. I have had a great year, And had heaps of fun with my Year 4 peer. Next year we go to Year 8, It hasn’t come too early or late. But I will miss the Junior School, Because it has been really cool. Clinton Hodges 7 Blue
