Sint lucernae ardentes!" God grant our light so shine That henceforth the flame of our teaching Far through the centuries reaching, Stand for a sign. Borne over far distant lands Wheresoe'er learners may roam, Bidding the watchful know proudly, Telling it gladly and loudly, This was their home. Sint lucernae ardentes !" That's the aim of our School! To kindle of hope and endeavour Fires that will blaze, and will never Flicker nor cool!

SCHOOL HYMN

To Thee, 0 God, our hearts we raise In humble supplication, For those who seek in childhood's days A lifelong consecration. To Thee we come with vows renewed, the right from wrong discerning, O send us forth with power endued, With zeal and courage burning. O Saviour Christ to Thee we pray With heavenly manna feed us, Thyself the life, the truth, the way, Through all life's changes lead us. When fails the heart in warfare long, When faith and love are dying, O make us in our weakness strong While on Thy might relying. O Holy Spirit, fount of life, Through all our days protect us ; Our help in need, our shield in strife, With sevenfold gifts direct us. Inspired with love and holy fear, And pledged to high endeavour, 0 grant us grace to persevere And seal us Thine for ever.

THE PRINCIPAL'S REPORT of the Forty-seventh Year of the School's History

" Do not anticipate that because our hearts are centered here, our horizon is bounded," said a Headmistress concerning her school. Let me ask each girl who is leaving school this evening. " Where have you set your horizon and what are you taking with you from your School ?" I hope that you go out into the world realizing that there are things worth doing and for which you are prepared to make tremendous efforts and sacrifices. These efforts will be demanding in this highly competitive age. In moments of discouragement you may feel tempted to give up, but be assured there is no greater satisfaction than success resulting from effort and hard work. Special knowledge and skills are called for, and these you must acquire or fall behind in the race. Sir Francis Rolland once reminded the girls of our School that each girl had her own particular contribution to make that she and only she could offer. That should bring home to us the solemn responsibility that lies at the door of each one of us. In gaining knowledge and skills you should remind yourself that you may be developing mind and hand, but even more important is the acquiring of wisdom in making decisions, of developing tolerance and understanding of the needs of others, in the gaining of self control and unselfish devotion to duty, which will make you put first the things of God, and in that spirit dedicate yourself to the service of your fellows. I am certain that you can make a positive contribution in upholding truly Christian standards. I appeal to you once again, for I have spoken to you personally, to have the courage, even in the face of ridicule to defend your principles in a world where so many are throwing off all restraints. Turning now to the Parents, — Do you agree that the present state of Society can be explained by the swing of the pendulum from the old strict repressive regime to a society without authority and without discipline ? As I share my thoughts with you, I realize afresh the responsibility which you are placing upon the School in entrusting your girls to us. Not only are you asking us to impart knowledge and to teach them how to learn, but you are requiring us to share with you the even more difficult task of character building and training in self control. This demands from you and the home and from us, firm, even discipline. We look for your support at all times in our efforts to ensure that your daughter should develop to the best of which she is capable. To some extent we can by examination and testing gauge her mental development, but how are we to measure human qualities ? You, the Parents were given the opportunity this year to meet and discuss your daughter's progress, her strength and her weakness, with those who teach her. I feel confident that we can count on your full co-operation most of all when correction and even stern measures become necessary. 5

Let me express to the members of Staff my warm appreciation of their willing assistance over this and each year. You are all aware that they have given up hours of their free time — not always appreciated I may say — in the interest of those under their care. I have acted on the audacious utterance of Miss Beale of Cheltenham College, " If you want a thing well done, don't do it yourself," and so with confidence I delegate a very great deal to our Chief of Staff, Miss Sutherland, who makes life so much less complicated for me. I do not need to tell the Parents of the Juniors that Miss Courtney still spends herself in the interest of her children. If I gave everyone her due, I should find it necessary to add a very long list of names, so I must content myself by saying that the friendly co-operation of every member means so much to me personally and to the School. Some members are with us this evening for the last time. Each one takes with her our warm wishes for the future. I add a reminder to Miss Williams that we expect to see her in her old place in February 1968 — we are rather reluctantly sparing her to her family from whom she has been separated for the last six years. The Boarding House calls for a special word. Pressures over the last years have so increased that it became imperative to provide more accommodation. Many problems will be solved for Miss Henderson, as Head of the House when the new quarters are ready during 1967. We hope her task will then be easier. I take the opportunity to express appreciation to Miss Jean Rentoul, who very quickly slipped back into the life of Morongo and found a sure place in a position calling for patience, knowledge and a tactful approach. The Staff join me in acknowledging the loyalty of the Prefects and those seniors who throughout the year have supported our efforts. They have appreciated the need for the constant vigilance that is essential for good discipline, and in carrying out their duties have used their powers with discretion and common sense. There are endless changes in the field of education and the Staff members have cheerfully prepared themselves to meet the challenge. Without unduly disturbing the children — the work is being introduced at appropriate stages and we are hoping that the fresh approach to certain subjects will in fact prove as beneficial and encouraging as their protagonists predict. We are watching with interest. We needs must look ahead and be ready to meet the challenge of a changing and rather bewildering world. Over the years I have seen the introduction of new ideas, have seen methods tried and discarded, so my approach is one of cautious optimism, rather than of unrestrained enthusiasm, but I do endeavour to keep an open mind. Results in the 1966 Public Examinations were on the whole, gratifying. Fifty-nine Intermediate candidates were credited with four or more subject passes, some as many as nine, ten and eleven; sixty-one Leaving girls qualified to go on to Matriculation, though only fifty-one did so. Forty Matriculation Certificates (including forty Honours) gained for the girls concerned, five Commonwealth and six Secondary Scholarships. You may be interested to know that from these seniors, eleven went on to Melbourne or Monash Universities, two are at the Pharmacy College, nine are training for primary teaching, two are at the Kew Kindergarten College, two at Mercer House, the Training College of the Independent Schools, five are nursing and at least two others are studying Art. As usual 6

the 1966 girls now presenting for Matriculation are worried over their chances of finding places at the various Universities and the added difficulty of residence within the University Colleges. The University of La Trobe should ease the strain, but I find myself supporting applications for admittance to universities as far afield as Canberra and Armidale, N.S.W. The steady sound work over the years of Miss Botterill and Miss Evans is revealed in the results of the recent Alliance Francaise Examinations. I pay a special tribute to both Miss Evans and Miss Botterill who have served the School so well for long years. Activities outside the form room provide opportunities for initiative and self expression. We feel there is much to be gained by continuing to work with the boys of The Geelong College in drama and music, as well as in debating and an occasional sporting fixture. The drama group trained by Mr. A. D. Mahar produced Archibald McLeish's " J.B.," a modern version of the Book of Job. Miss Blowes collaborated with Mr. W. Martin to train choirs for the Cantata St. Nicolas, which was sung in St. George's Church. Both productions required many hours, in fact weeks of intense preparation. The actual performances doubtless gave pleasure, but these are not ends in themselves — it is rather the co-operation and the working together of the girls and the boys that are of value. We consider that this working together is to be preferred to purely social activities. Speaking of social matters, I am becoming increasingly concerned over the growing number of dances arranged in second term of each year. Admittedly the young require social training in this casual modern age, but there is a disproportionate importance attached to these functions and we deplore the distraction occasioned both before and after these evenings, rather than the actual events. With the cooperation of the Head of The Geelong College we plan to work towards a healthier attitude to the social life of the School. The experiment begun a few years ago by the four Geelong Public Schools — that of making music together — was carried a step further this year. Time has proved the value of these evenings, if only for the incentive they provide. As I was abroad, I missed the 1965 performances, but I realized that there had been a definite improvement in standard over the past two years. It is unfortunate that Parents and the whole School cannot be invited to attend, but the choirs, bands and orchestras of the four schools require the entire floor space available in the various school halls. Speaking of our own contribution, I was struck by the improved quality of the work and it was with pleasure I listened to the orchestra that is now taking shape. I am sure the Parents and Friends would share my pleasure in this development for the School is indebted to the Association for help in providing instruments as well as music scholarships. Before leaving the topic of music, I must mention Miss Wadelton who for thirty-seven years has so faithfully served the School in teaching individual girls and in encouraging appreciation of music by her endeavours in the Music Club. She is now relinquishing practically all teaching, taking only those few Seniors who could be affected by a change-over at a late stage in their musical training. Generations of Morongo girls can testify to the soundness of the training they received under Miss Wadelton. We are sad the time has come to make the break, but we take pleasure in the knowledge that she will now be able to enjoy some leisure. 7

It says much for the enthusiasm and initiative of the boarders that the P.F.A. and the P.G.A. have continued to function successfully. The demands of an exacting year made it difficult to give time to these groups and the girls themselves met the challenge. They are to be congratulated on their fine efforts. In the absence through illness of the Reverend K. MacLean, Deaconess A. MacLeod prepared for Confirmation thirty-one girls who were later admitted to Church membership at St. David's Presbyterian Church. Sincere sympathy is offered to Mr. MacLean in the prolonged illness, which ultimately led to his resignation from St. David's and from the Chaplaincy of Morongo. I know that it was a matter of great regret to him that he was unable to have the close association with the School he desired, for as he said on more than one occasion, the School was a rewarding part of his ministry. Our wishes for the future are offered to Mr. MacLean and to Mrs. MacLean and Kenneth. I previously said that we hoped the girls of this School would dedicate themselves to the service of others. Maybe this desire is something which is caught not taught.' The attitude of the home is in the main, responsible for the attitude of the child towards her fellows. Group activities however can add to home training. The enthusiasm of the girls in their fund raising for social service augurs well for the future, suggesting that theirs could well be a sympathy finding expression in practical service. Miss Evans with her experience gives wise direction to the efforts of the Forms, enabling the girls to answer some of the appeals which arrive almost daily. Each year brings as a rule some special call upon our sympathy. 1966 brought an appeal once again from St. Hilda's University College. As a result of short term concentrated efforts some two hundred and sixty-six dollars were sent to this Building Fund. Though we have had no spectacular achievements in the Girls' Public School Association Matches, the teams have given good accounts of themselves and have profited by keen competition. Physical training has gone on without interruption and it is encouraging to see greater enthusiasm being displayed by many who previously needed constant urging. It is a matter for concern that so many of this generation tend to be spectators rather than performers. I acknowledge the interest and enthusiasm of Miss Rainsford and Miss Hobbs in inspiring and encouraging the girls to active participation. The very close results of the School Houses and those of the Boarders testify to growing interest. I now move on to speak of those who are no longer within our Form rooms. A well known Scottish School refers to its past pupils as " Seniors " and this name has virtue, implying that they are still a vital part of the School, since it is to our seniors we look for example, support and co-operation. Whatever the label, our Old Collegians most loyally stand behind Morongo and we take pride in the Association and the various branches. If I may add a personal note, — I was touched by the messages of congratulations and encouragement that poured in from the Associations and individual girls scattered over the world. As I said in reply to many, it gave me great happiness to share the decoration which came so unexpectedly, with the Old Collegians and with the School which has become so much part of my life. 8

The Wimmera Branch was formally constituted in May last, though there had been several informal gatherings over the years. This brings the number of Branches to four, the membership of these being drawn from wide areas of Victoria. Though long distances may curtail activities, these groups serve a real purpose in keeping members in touch with each other and in enabling them to learn something of the development of their School. I realized how deep is this desire for news of Morongo when meeting girls overseas and indeed nearer home. Mrs. Ruxton has served the School well as President of the Association over the last three years. She appreciated the loyal support of her Secretary Mrs. J. Williams and a helpful Committee. The recently elected President Mrs. Daryl Heath will be associated with Mrs. Ross Cook (Noele Dabb) the new Secretary. It is notable that the new President, formerly Jennifer McCann is the first President to be drawn from the ranks of the second generation of girls. She is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. E. W. McCann, both of whom have included Morongo in the many interests they support. Mrs. McCann as an active Old Collegian and Mr. McCann an energetic member of Morongo Council. A school is fortunate to have such loyalty. Thereby grows tradition. Old Collegians and a wide circle of well wishers sent messages of congratulations to the first Principal of Morongo, Miss G. Pratt who in June last celebrated her 90th birthday. Miss Pratt amazes us all with her vitality. Her interest in Morongo grows with the years. We never cease to wonder at the firmness of her fine handwriting, so familiar to us all. We regret that she is forced to spend some weeks in hospital, following a fall in which she broke her leg. Visitors report that she dwells little on the discomfort she is suffering but speaks with pleasure and appreciation of the flowers and remembrances that have come from so many Morongo friends. I am sure that those Parents who knew Miss Pratt will join with her former scholars and with the School in hoping that we shall shortly see her walking about her own home. I turn now to the other groups, the Parents and Friends' Association and the Junior and the Afternoon Auxiliaries, which give their unending support to Morongo. The School Council dictates the policy of Morongo and plans for future expansion and development. There are many improvements and additions that are desirable, but these must wait their turn. The Council makes itself responsible for these, but there are various amenities that the Parents and Friends have shown willingness to provide and their interest is greatly appreciated. The Committee would wish me to tell you all that Saturday, 18th March, is the 1967 date chosen for their main fund raising function, the proceeds of which will go towards the project they hope to undertake. The School thanks all these Parents and Friends and indeed every Parent for continued confidence in the School and for their practical support. • There comes to mind a number of kindly gestures for which donors have been personally thanked. I wish to take this opportunity to add a more public acknowledgment of the generous thoughts which prompted these gifts. It is particularly touching when young past scholars send gifts as a gesture of goodwill. A case in point is a cheque of one hundred and eighty dollars recently handed to me by the Younger Set of the Old Collegians. The gratitude of the School comes 9

also to many who have provided a number of the books and trophies that are to be given tonight to recognise the efforts of the girls over the year in work and in sport. Scholarships made possible through the generosity of the Old Collegians of Geelong and also of the Western District, as well as several from the Howard Hitchcock Trust help to ease the financial burden of those to whom they have been awarded. I am not forgetting the welcome cheque sent by the Melbourne Old Collegians. This was used to add helpful equipment to the Science Laboratory, for the requirements of the new courses call for many expensive additions. My last word is reserved for the members of Council, the body that serves the School so ably and faithfully. Walk about the School and grounds and you will see the fruits of their foresight and vision. The provision of buildings has gone on steadily step by step. No progressive school is ever complete. That could lead to smug complacency and even stagnation. There must always be something for which to strive and your Council is well aware of this and plans accordingly. While they do indeed provide material benefits, their interest does not rest there. With Mr. Hirst as Chairman the Council has made it clear that they are sensible of the responsibility that is theirs as guardians of a Church School, and that they stand firmly behind every effort of Principal and Staff. To each member I offer my personal thanks for encouragement over the years. The Council will agree that a special word is due to Mr. D. G. Neilson, who approaches every problem with understanding and sympathy but also with clear thinking and realism. A happy friendly atmosphere is a pleasing feature of our monthly meeting, but nevertheless, serious thoughtful decisions are made for the benefit of all at Morongo. It is not easy to find words to thank the Council adequately, but I believe the members will feel amply rewarded if they can find evidence that the School is noted not only for sound scholarship but for strenuous disciplined effort in work and behaviour. LUCY SHAW, Principal.

Editorial

We in Australia tend to be neglectful of a number of things, including the preservation of our own traditions. The Concise Oxford Dictionary defines a tradition as " a statement, belief or practice transmitted from generation to generation." This country was born when the worst injustices of the Industrial Revolution were being perpetrated against the common man, woman and child. Thus, Australians of more than a century ago, developed opinions and beliefs that made the nation more democratic and more resentful of injustice than any other nation in the world, However, the enthusiasm for a " fair go " for all has abated considerably; migrants today often see us as complacent and long-suffering about issues which should be matters of public concern and debate. Perhaps this is due to too much money for motor cars, travel, drinking, gambling, surfing, sport of all kind and general mental laziness brought on by a smug satisfaction with the present society. Whatever the cause, it is something to be deplored and attacked. Traditions unite a people and strengthen a nation. They build pride and encourage the young to emulate great men. If one grows up in a family where the parents maintain a love of something they found good in the traditions of their youth, one inevitably absorbs the same feeling and gains confidence by its positive philosophy. People without traditions lack something on which to build their pride. A person's integrity is closely related to his pride in his membership of a family, a group, a nation. Our pride in the traditions of our school helps to mould us into mature citizens of the future. By holding firmly to the moral and spiritual values which we have been taught and observed, we may obtain a balanced appraisal of the challenges with which we will be confronted. " The future is purchased by the present " said Johnson, and we, of the present generation must do our duty in preparing for the future. The cause towards sound citizenship lies neither in the direction of too much self-assurance nor in the wavering stream of indecision. Today, with the shadow of war looming over us and the swirling clouds of racial hatred in our midst, we must be prepared to remain loyal to our ideals based on the experience of earlier generations. With the influence of women in public life being stronger today than it ever was before, we must be ready to use all our opportunities to influence others and to carry our ideals into effect. As the barriers of pride and prejudice are broken down, we find that the union of family life and career is possible to a degree never before conceivable. We, as the future women of this nation, must be prepared to accept the responsibilities that those before us have fought to give us, and to play our part in moulding the future of Australia. As individuals, we may ask " how can we take the initiative and act on these ideals whilst still at school?" the answer is that in everything we attempt, we must aim for perfection. Far too many of us are satisfied with mediocrity. Unless we are to fail our nation, we must stir ourselves out of this lethargy. It is true that " Today's youth are tomorrow's leaders " and we hold the future of this country in our hands. As our future is being moulded, so is our country's. We are all building in the present

Page Six

for the future and our beliefs and practices today, will form the traditions of the future. We must ensure that these traditions will prove worthy of us and of our ancestors. We must fulfil our duty to ourselves as members of an expanding and highly competitive International society in which, charity, freedom and humanity of thought and action are vitally important.

Morongo Junior School Auxiliary

The meetings have been fairly well attended this year. We do encourage members to attend as often as possible in order to enjoy the interesting syllabus items and to keep in closer touch with the School. Our annual social evening with Miss Shaw and members of the Junior School staff was held at the G.A.M.A. Theatre where we saw the Tennessee Williams Play " The Glass Menagerie " and afterwards had supper at the Theatre. A varied syllabus this year included an historical talk by Mr. Philip Brown on Bell Post Hill, a demonstration of Yoga, a visit from a Melbourne furrier and two lively talks by Mrs. D. R. Sefton on " The Status of Women " and " Women and their Leisure." At the June meeting which was held at the Gertrude Pratt Hall we made a presentation to Miss Shaw as a token of congratulation upon her being awarded the M.B.E. Miss Shaw spoke to us that day about Schools she had recently visited overseas. The Auxiliary raised $62 at its Garden Party cake stall. During the year the President and Secretary have attended Executive meetings of the Parents and Friends' Association together with members of other organizations within the School. It has been decided that the funds we raise be added to those of the other organizations in order to help finance projects of value to the School. All members would like to thank Miss Shaw, Miss Courtney and members of the Junior School staff for their constant encouragement and inspiration to our children. We also thank the retiring Committee members for their keen support, and especially the President, Mrs. F. R. Herd for her splendid leadership during the last two years. Judith A. Fielding, Hon. Secretary.

School Notes

At our first assembly held on February 2nd, Miss Shaw welcomed the new members of staff — Mi,ss Boddy, Miss Bird, Miss Forster, Miss Hobbs, Miss King, Miss Morrison, Miss Patterson, Miss Rainsford, Miss Rentoul and Mrs. Thom and the new girls to the School. We were all thrilled to see Miss Shaw's name in the Queen's birthday honour list this year and congratulations were extended to her from the staff and girls and all associated with the School. Our Chaplain — Rev. Kenneth McLean resigned this year. He and his family have been much in our thoughts during his long illness and we thank him for his service to the School during his ministry at St. David's. Under the supervision of Mr. A. Mahar of Geelong College, members of the Morongo and Geelong College matriculation class staged Archibald McLeish's play " J.B." in second term and they are to be Page Seven

congratulated on a fine performance. Later in the year the choirs of Morongo and Geelong College, under the direction of Mr. Martin, Miss Blowes and Mr. Newnham, combined to produce the Cantata " St. Nicolas " by Benjamin Britten. The success of these performances reflects credit on those who spent many hours in preparation. In second term the staff and girls raised $266 towards the expansion of St. Hilda's College. This year we welcomed Debby Gottleib to Morongo. Debby is an American Field Service exchange student and she has taken an active part in the life of the School. One morning, after assembly, Debby gave us an interesting and amusing comparison of life in America with life in Australia. We have enjoyed having her at Morongo and hope that she will take back happy memories of her stay in Australia. Once again we thank the Council for their untiring support in providing us with a new classroom, a gas cooker for the kitchen and for having the back drive sealed. Plans are now well under way for a new boarding house which will be started next year. Janette McAdam.

Head Prefect's Notes

The prefects for 1966 were: Elizabeth Bramley, Janet Cox, Janine Martin, Janette McAdam, Jennifer McColl, Heather Millikan, Vanessa Mitchell and Margaret Reeve. The Deputy prefects were: Susanne Brown, Janine Carew, Joy Casboult, Barbara Guthrie, Anne Liddle, Ann Lucas, Lynne McGregor, Jennifer Moles, Jane Urquhart and Elizabeth Wright. The induction of the prefects took place on February 28th at a service conducted by the Rev. J. Bentley, chaplain of Geelong College. Miss Shaw and I were invited to attend the annual luncheon of the Geelong P. A. at the Belmont Presbyterian Hall on April 5th. The School Garden Party was held this year on March 12th, and although we did not manage to break last year's record on our sweet stall, with the folk singing, the girls raised $247 towards the total sum. Morongo again joined in the Commonwealth Youth Sunday this year. It was decided that, in preference to the various groups dividing to go to different churches, all the schools taking part would assemble in Johnstone park for a combined service. After the service I attended a reception given by the Mayor of Geelong, where we met the Canadian High Commissioner, Mr. A. Menzies. The Annual School Dance was held on June 5th and, for the first time, a Senior Boarders' Dance was held this year and proved to be very successful. During the year the prefects have had the pleasure of attending school dances at the Hermitage, Geelong College and Geelong Grammar School. The Senior girls were also invited to a dance given by the boys of Chanel College. The School church service was held on August 7th in the Gertrude Pratt Hall. The Rev. J. Martin from St. Andrews conducted the service and the School choir sang the anthem. Members of the School Council, Old Collegians and parents were present.

Some of the senior girls had a very interesting afternoon on July 24th when they attended an S.C.M. conference at the Gordon Institute. The subject was " Can Man control his own evolution?" and Professor C. L. Birch from Sydney University spoke to us. Discussion groups were formed and we had an opportunity to bring forward our own ideas. My thanks go to the prefects and the deputy prefects who have given me their support throughout the year and especially to Janine Martin who, with the assistance of the House Committee, has worked efficiently and capably in the Boarding House. On their behalf I express thanks to Miss Henderson for her guidance. I would like to thank Miss Rentoul who spends so much of her time in taking care of the needs of the boarders and also for the help which she has given me so many times this year. The thanks of all the girls go to Miss Shaw, Miss Sutherland and the members of the staff for their unfailing interest in us all and the support they give to us, not only in our work, but in our many school activities. Miss Shaw has willingly given up her time to help me and make my task easier and I sincerely thank her. In conclusion the prefects wish to thank the girls for making their year in office such a happy one and wish you the best of luck for 1967. J anette McAdam.

Church Notes

Throughout the year, the Presbyterian boarders and members of staff have attended the weekly 11 a.m. services at St. David's, while the Anglican girls have attended St. John's Church of England. As usual, on Palm Sunday, the Boarders sang their part in " The Story of the Cross " at St. David's, and later in first term the senior girls joined in the Commonwealth Youth Sunday March and the short service afterwards which was conducted in Johnstone Park. A number of Morongo boarders, who had attended classes conducted by Miss McLeod, were confirmed along with the Geelong College boys, at St. David's in second term. These girls included: S. Bannon, J. Beckman, S. Berlyn, L. Coad, C. Coutts, A. French, L. Harrison, K. Lang, E. Ludemann, J. Matheson, J. Menzies, P. McDonough, E. McRae, G. Notman, M. Petrie, W. Reddie, J. Robbins and L. Smith. This year the Annual School Service was held on Sunday, 7th August, again in the Gertrude Pratt Hall. A number of parents attended with their daughters this year, and it was pleasing to see that the Old Collegians were better represented than last year. The Rev. J. Martin from St. Andrew's, conducted the service, and the School Choir sang the introit and the anthem. At the beginning of third term,. the School was very sorry to hear of the Reverend K. McLean's retirement from St. David's, and we would like to express our sincere thanks to him for his past services to Morongo. Our thanks also go to Deaconess Miss A. McLeod for her help throughout the past two years, and we wish her the best of luck for the future. Susanne Brown. Page Nine

Ardens House Report

Seek Wisdom ,' Although Ardens has not been quite as successful this year as in previous years, the co-operation of most of our girls has been gratifying, but too many still lack the enthusiasm we need to bring our house to the top again where it belongs. Our relatively pleasing results in the Music Competitions and Swimming Sports overshadowed the " disasters " of the Athletics, Basketball and Junior Hockey a little, but I sincerely wish next year's teams perhaps a little more success. Congratulations to our Senior Swimming Champion, Elizabeth Wright and runners-up in the Junior and Sub-junior Championships — Suzanne Cooke and Meredith Cooper; also Deidre Cook and Vivienne Sutherland who were equal runners-up to the Intermediate Athletics Champion. Harris, Lawson and Roslyn must be congratulated on their respective wins during 1966 and as I wish Ardens good luck for the future, I wish it to you too. I want to thank Elizabeth Wright, our Sports' Captain for her capable and loyal leadership on the Sports' Field, and all the seniors and members of staff who have helped in any way, however small, and in concluding I would like to say how much I have enjoyed leading Ardens this year. Good luck for the future and " Seek Wisdom.,9 Jane Urquhart.

Harris House Report

" Not Failure, but Low Aim is Crime" Harris began the year rather slowly but soon most of the girls were showing a keen interest in House activities which lead to successes in the classroom and on the sportsfield. The first sporting event of the year was the Swimming Sports, and we congratulate Lawson on their convincing victory. Although Harris came last, many girls did try hard and we congratulate the champions, including Jane Taylor, who was Junior champion. For the first time in sixteen years, I am very proud to say that Harris won the Athletic Sports. This was a magnificent effort and was made possible by the enthusiasm of the girls who trained very hard in running events and for the marching. We congratulate Judith Winkler on winning the Senior championship, and Fiona McIntyre, sub-junior runner-up. During second term, a high standard was attained in basketball and hockey, and we were fortunate to win the hockey. This year, House Singing competitions were held for the first time. Although many Harris girls gave much of their spare time in preparing for these, we were defeated by better singers, and we extend congratulations to Roslyn. Owing to the enthusiasm of the girls, we were pleased to raise the sum of $65.50 towards the St. Hilda's College Appeal. I would like to thank the Harris staff for their sustained interest in the House throughout the year, and in particular I thank Judith Winkler, Sports Captain, for her assistance in all House activities

Page Ten

and especially for her consistent work in organizing sporting events. We thank the girls of Harris for their loyalty, enthusiasm and keen House spirit. These are the qualities that pave the way to success. In conclusion, to those returning in 1967, I extend best wishes and express the hope that all girls will continue to wear the Harris badge with pride. Jennifer McColl.

Lawson House Report

"To Strive, to Seek, to Find and not to Yield" The general enthusiasm of the majority of Lawson girls in 1966 has been reflected in our results, although there are still a few who insist on pulling against their House. This year, after keen competition from Ardens, the vigorous participation, both physical and vocal, of all Lawson girls, resulted in our regaining the Ena Miller Shield for Swimming, with Lynne McGregor, Senior runner-up and Jan Adams, Intermediate Champion. Before our Athletic Sports on April 23rd, a system of House Late Sport was introduced to assist with training. However, despite our efforts, Lawson again occupied but second place. Our congratulations to Cynthia Powell and Lyn Crellin, Senior and Junior runners-up respectively, and Susan Eldridge, Intermediate Champion. Our House Choir was ably led by Helen Thompson, although we could only manage third place in that section of the House Music Competitions. Congratulations to Helen, and to Adrienne Herd, for their respective wins in the Senior and Junior Pianist sections. In second term, the individual efforts of the girls and the House Fete, helped in our contribution to the St. Hilda's Appeal. The House Basketball and Hockey teams were thwarted by injuries, although the Junior Basketball' team was equal first. At present, Baseball and Tennis matches are in progress, and we hope that the promising start that has been made will result in success for Lawson. My thanks go to Barbara Guthrie, our Sports' Captain, for her unfailing support and organization of all our sporting activities throughout the year. Our thanks go to all Lawson girls who have helped to make our year so successful by their co-operation and support. We both feel that there is great potential in Lawson and wish every success to all Lawson girls, either leaving or returning, and hope that you will always remember " To Strive, to Seek, to Find and not to Yield." Lynne McGregor.

Roslyn House Report

" We are Judged by Our Deeds" Roslyn can certainly be proud of her " deeds " for 1966, even though the House has not always been at the top of the list, the spirit has been good and it has been pleasing to see the girls try as they have. The Swimming Sports on February 25th again found Roslyn in third position, although she would surely have taken the prize for cheering. Our congratulations go to Judith Menzies who was runner-up to the Intermediate Champion, and Lesley Potter, the sub-junior champion. The School Athletic Sports were held on April 23rd. We found Harris taking first position, Lawson second and Roslyn again third. Page Eleven

The sports were very exciting, and we are extremely proud of two of our girls who showed their colours — Jennifer Worland, junior champion and Jennifer Bartlett, sub-junior champion. Roslyn was successful in the marching, even though we missed our leader who followed us round the outside of the field on crutches. During second term, hockey and basketball matches were played. The Senior basketball won, while the Juniors were equal first. The tennis and baseball matches are still being played and we are hoping for some successes here. The House Music Competitions, held between School Houses for the first time, this year, were a victory for Roslyn. The Choir was very ably led by Janet Cox, and the pianists and group instrumentalists are also to be highly commended for their performances. Rosemary Laidlaw, Heather Millikan and Robyn Woodburn won the instrumental section of the competition. The St. Hilda's Appeal, held on a House basis, was well supported, and the girls worked very hard to raise the $50 which put Roslyn in third place in the totals. Debits and credits have been abolished this last term, but I am afraid that the Roslyn girls were not maintaining their high standards in the Tuesday " lists " during the earlier terms. Finally, I would like to thank Jill Muller, our sports' captain, for her help, and her capable organization of the teams, and I wish all Roslyn girls the best of luck for 1967. Susanne Brown.

Sports Report

General enthusiasm and improvement in play has been characteristic of all aspects of sport this year. As a whole it has been successful and there appear to be many promising juniors who will be capable of taking places in the senior teams in the near future. At the beginning of the year we were pleased to welcome Miss Rainsford and Miss Hobbs to the School and I would like to take this opportunity on behalf of the Sports' Captains and girls to congratulate them on their efficient guidance in all spheres of our sport throughout the year. Baseball and tennis teams played their association matches during first term, also social matches against Clyde and St. Margaret's. It was pleasing to see the Junior A tennis team finish the season undefeated. The Swimming Sports were held at Lara on 25th February and congratulations this year go to Lawson on winning the Ena Miller Shield, also to the individual champions. The Geelong All-Schools' Swimming Sports were held at Norlane on March 15th and Morongo was well represented in all events. Full credit goes to Harris for their most decisive victory at the Athletic Sports which were held on Saturday, 23rd April. It is interesting to note this was the first time Harris House has won the Margaret Shannon Cup since 1950. Golf lessons at the Geelong Golf Club were made available and numbers of girls took advantage of them. Fencing this year has

Page Twelve

become increasingly popular and since last year the classes have doubled in size. We had representatives in the Victorian C Grade Championships and entrants in the Junior State Fencing Competitions. Hockey and basketball teams were keenly contested at the beginning of second term with a record attendance at the first practices. Association matches were played between 18th June and 30th July and congratulations go to the Senior B basketball team for winning the premiership. We played many social matches throughout the season against Alexandra College, Clyde, Geelong Teachers' College, Bell Park High School, Geelong High School, Sacred Heart, Clonard, Geelong College and Geelong Grammar School. We felt these extra matches were a tremendous stimulus to the general standard of play. The system of School and House Colours was reviewed this year by the Sports Council (consisting of the House Officials). Previously a girl had to be a member of a first team for two years to get her symbols, now they may be awarded after one year if she has been particularly outstanding and co-operative and has contributed in some constructive way to the particular sport. Two sets of symbols are necessary before School Colours are awarded. This year School Colours were awarded to: Merril Campbell, Jane Urquhart and Jennifer Moles (Bar to School Colours). House Colours are now awarded to a girl who represents her house in 3 out of 6 sports including swimming and athletics. A new form of Boarders' Sport has been introduced this year whereby a system of inter-house competitive matches in various sports has been undertaken. Girls from Leaving have taken the responsibility of organizing this programme and have done so willingly and efficiently. Senior and Junior House matches in hockey and basketball were played during second term. Both Harris teams were successful in the hockey while Roslyn won the Senior section of the basketball with Lawson and Roslyn sharing the Junior Cup. Baseball and tennis matches are yet to be completed, also the School Tennis Championships. In closing, I would like to congratulate the respective Sports' Captains for all they have done within their Houses to make 1966 such a successful year in the field of sport, and best wishes to those returning for 1967. Jennifer Moles.

Swimming Report

For the fourth year, the Swimming Sports were held at the McClelland Pool, Lara, on February 25th, the heats having been held on the previous Monday. Congratulations go to Lawson, 242:; points, who defeated Ardens, 223 points, to win the Ena Miller Shield, Roslyn, 155 points and Harris 132?) points were third and fourth respectively. We also congratulate the champions who were; Open: Elizabeth Wright; Intermediate: Jan Adams; Junior : Jane Taylor; Sub-Junior : Lesley Potter. Page Thirteen

It is hoped that next year the Sports will be held at the Norlane Pool, which is heated and this should encourage more people to participate. The Geelong and District All Schools' Swimming Championships were held at Norlane on 19th March. Unfortunately they were washed out and had to be continued on the following Tuesday. For the second successive year Morongo was narrowly defeated and our congratulations go to Clonard for winning the Batten Aggregate Shield for the first time. We would like to thank Miss Hobbs and Miss Rainsford for their assistance during the season. Elizabeth Wright. Athletics Report

The general attitude to Athletics, as in all sports this year was one of great keenness and enthusiasm, and many girls commenced training weeks before the Heats of the Athletic Sports. We were fortunate this year to have fine weather for our Annual Sports held on April 30th, as it had been raining for most of the previous week. Pre-decided events were held on Saturday morning, but this year most of the events were held in the afternoon. The Sports were very keenly contested this year and it was pleasing to note that for the first time in 16 years, Harris was victorious with a convincing total of 371 points, followed by Lawson with 342 points, Roslyn with 336 points and Ardens with 234 points. This year it was decided to try a different style of House Marching. Instead of the usual block marching, the Houses tried formation marching, and our thanks go to Miss Rainford and Miss Hobbs for their expert organization of this, which was enjoyed by all and proved to be very successful. The Individual Champions were: Senior: Judith Winkler (Harris), Runner-up: Cynthia Powell (L.), Intermediate: Susan Eldridge (Lawson), Runner-up: Deidre Cook (A.), Junior: Jennifer Worland (Roslyn), Runner-up: Lyn Crellin (L.), Sub-Junior: Jennifer C. Bartlett (Roslyn), Runner-up: Fiona McIntyre (H.). In closing, I would like to thank the staff for their help in judging the Sports and also to extend my personal thanks and appreciation to Miss Hobbs and Miss Rainsford for their most successful efforts to make the Sports run smoothly. Sport at Morongo has improved considerably this year owing to their expert help and guidance and my congratulations go to them both. Judith Winkler.

Baseball Report

Page Fourteen

With only three players from last year's Senior A team, hopes for 1966 looked perhaps a little doubtful, but positions were ably taken by girls from the Senior B and Junior A teams. After several changes the final Senior A team was: Sue Crellin (Pitcher), Jane Urquhart (Catcher), Judith Winkler (1st Base), Frances Spry (2nd Base), Sally Odgers (3rd Base), Jennifer Moles (Short-stop), Jeannette Camp (L. Field), Elizabeth Bramley (C. Field) and Janine Martin (R. Field).

Regular practices began promptly at the beginning of the year, two afternoons a week as well as some early-morning practices when necessary. Our first match for the season was against Clyde which was played at Woodend on 26th February. Association matches were played against P.L.C., M.L.C., The Hermitage and M.C.E.G.G.S. between 5th March and April. On the last Saturday of the term we played a social match against St. Margarets' at Berwick — it proved a successful as well as being a most enjoyable trip. A brilliant spectacle was observed when the staff decided to challenge the Senior A team on the last Monday of first term. They certainly received a sound defeat as the result of a most hilarious but enjoyable game of baseball. This year baseball symbols were awarded to: Janine Martin, Jane Urquhart, Judith Winkler and Jennifer Moles (re-awarded 1. The standard of play in all the baseball teams this year showed a very marked improvement both in practices and matches; although no team was undefeated during the season, I feel confident that success will come in the very near future. In closing, I would like to thank Miss Hobbs for her patient coaching and very willing assistance to us throughout the season. To all girls returning I wish every success for 1967. Jennifer Moles.

Hockey Report

The standard of hockey set by the 1st team in 1965 was certainly very high and it was consequently the aim of every girl this year to achieve another such successful season. This was certainly no easy task, and I would like to congratulate Miss Hobbs for her fine coaching and all the extra time, energy and effort she gave to the hockey teams throughout the season. The teams were keenly contested from the very beginning when about 70 ,girls attended the first senior hockey practice this year. The numbers gradually dwindled and the following girls were chosen for the Senior A team: Lynette Harrison, Jeannette Camp, Elizabeth Bramley, Susan Forsyth, Jennifer Moles, Anne Liddle, Alison Richardson, Sally Odgers, Judith Winkler, Elizabeth Wettenhall and Mary Barber. In all teams the standard of play was particularly high throughout the season, showing the importance and effect of regular practices and consistent training throughout the week. Association matches against P.L.C., M.L.C., The Hermitage and M.C.E.G.G.S. were played with varied success. Other social matches besides these were played against Clyde, The Geelong Teachers' College, Geelong High School, Geelong College and Geelong Grammar School. On the last Saturday of 2nd term the Old Collegians made up a hockey team to play against a combination of our two senior teams. The afternoon was enjoyed by all, and it was good to see former students appearing on the field again. Page Fifteen

The highlight of the season was the trip to Alexandra College in Hamilton on the weekend of September 17th. Everybody had a marvellous time, even though we were narrowly defeated in the hockey (2-1). Out of the six girls who attended trials for the Victorian Junior State Hockey Team, three were successful in gaining positions. The tournament was held in Melbourne this year over a three-day period from August 29th - 31st. Congratulations to Harris House for their success in both Senior and Junior matches, and once again winning the Ruth McMillan Shield for Senior Inter-house hockey. At the end of second term, hockey symbols were awarded to Sally Odgers, Alison Richardson and Jennifer Moles (re-awarded). I would like to congratulate all girls who were in the teams this year for their fine performances, and best of luck to those returning for 1967. I hope that the enthusiasm which showed in the teams this year will continue. Jennifer Moles. Basketball Report

The selection of a Senior A team was a difficult task again this year, and owing to numerous mishaps throughout the term we finished with eight permanent members, these being: Merril Campbell, Carmel Cowley, Merryl Cowley, Sue Crellin, Glenda McRae, Jill Muller, Jane Urquhart and Catherine Walter. At the end of the season Merril Campbell and Jane Urquhart were awarded basketball symbols. All our matches were played well and with enthusiasm. The usual association matches were played, and congratulations to Yvonne Barr, Janet Brewster, Rosalind Fagg ( captain), Ann Jarman, Margaret Reeve, Jill Robbins, Janette Thomson and Elizabeth Wright, the members of the Senior B on winning their premiership. Social matches were played against Clyde, Sacred Heart, Bell Park and Geelong High Schools, Clonard and Teachers' College, and Alexandra College, Hamilton where the seniors spent a very enjoyable weekend in third term. In the last week of second term the staff v. Senior A match roused quite an interest in the School and I hope the tied result was appreciated by the spectators! Congratulations to Leaving P on winning the senior inter-form basketball and Sub. P the junior section. Also Roslyn, who won the Marion Rankin Shield for Senior House Basketball and Lawson and Roslyn who tied in the Junior. Although very few of our seniors are returning, we all have great faith in this year's junior teams and Miss Rainford's willing and unfailing guidance for next year. Jane Urquhart.

Tennis Report

After some difficulty over the pairings, the Senior A team was finally chosen as follows: Janet Brewster (vice-capt.), Merril Campbell, Janine Carew, Heather Corstorphan, Barbara Guthrie (Capt.), Ann Lucas, Una McIntyre, Judith Vickers-Willis. Unfortunately the standard was not high enough to ensure any outstanding victories in the association matches, although we managed

Page Sixteen

to beat M.C.E.G.G.S. Congratulations to the Junior A for remaining undefeated throughout the season — a very good effort and an encouraging sign for the future. Successful social matches were played against Clyde on 29th February and St. Margaret's at Berwick on 7th May, and both were enjoyed immensely. A mixed doubles tournament was held this term among players from Morongo, The Hermitage and Geelong College, and despite rain, which only seemed to strike Bell Post Hill, everyone had a pleasant day. The School Tennis Championships are being keenly contested this term, and it was pleasing to note the large entries in all events. House matches are also in progress, and the results should prove interesting. This year symbols were awarded to Janet Brewster, Merril Campbell, and Ann Lucas, and re-awarded to Barbara Guthrie. On behalf of all the teams I would like to thank Miss Rainsford for all the help and encouragement she has given us, Mr. Sleeman for his valuable assistance, and Miss Botterill for organizing the tennis lessons. Finally, to all girls returning I wish every success in the coming year. Barbara Guthrie.

Fencing Report

This year the Fencing Club had many keen members, and the increase in the ranks of valiant fencers enabled us to form two teams for Morongo. A Team: Michelle Miles, Margaret Shanks, Penelope South, Frances Spry. B Team: Elizabeth Dennis, J anne Dixon, Joanne Herd, Susan McNeil. Thais Horne and Jeanette Johnson were our representatives for the under fifteen fencers. Various competitions were held in Melbourne and Geelong and Mr. Fadgyas considered several of us competent enough to be entered. Michelle and Penelope both fenced well to form in the Victorian Junior State Championships, being placed second and third respectively. Girls were also entered in the selection for the State Junior Team. Penelope fenced extremely well but was unfortunate in not being made a member of the Victorian Team. On October 9th and 13th the Geelong and District Championships were held. Elizabeth fenced her way to victory in the beginners' competitions, while Michelle came 3rd and Penelope 6th in theJunior Championships. 1966 has been a tremendous success for all concerned, and our thanks go to Mr. Fadgyas without whom we would be lost. To those who will be continuing next year, and those who will be beginners, I extend my best wishes for 1967. Fencing is a wonderful sport, being both mentally and physically rewarding. Michelle Miles. Pafe Seventeen

French Report

This year has been a busy one for those studying French. On Friday, 22nd July, Miss Botterill took the Matriculation French class to Wesley College to see a performance by the Alliance Francaise of Moliere's " L'Avare." Having studied the play, those who attended found the performance very helpful. This year, for the first time, the Alliance Francaise Examinations were taken at Morongo. They were held on 13th August and, with thanks to Miss Botterill, the day was successful. When the shortened prize list was announced, many girls from Morongo were among those included. Page Nineteen

On 16th September, Miss Botterill took the Matriculation and Leaving French students to the French Night for Schools at the Melbourne University, and the evening was enjoyable as well as being beneficial. The many records supplied for us by the School have helped to improve our French oral work, and we have benefited from opportunities of watching television and listening to radio programmes. We are most grateful for the guidance given to us throughout the year by Miss Botterill and Miss Evans, and hope that we can repay their work with good results. Joy Casboult and Deanne Whittleston.

Library Report, 1966

This year has again been a successful one in the library, and although there have been no major innovations, a lot of work has been done by Mrs. Clarke in covering and cataloguing the new books, and by the Library Committee in the regular checking of each section in an effort to prevent too many books going astray. Once more we have added a large number of new books to our shelves — 346 reference books and 110 fiction books, making a total of 456. Our thanks go to the Council who have kindly provided the finance for many of their new books, and also to all our other friends who have been so generous with their gifts. We were particularly grateful to Miss Margaret Oddie for her beautiful gift of " The Churchill Years 11 in memory of her friend and fellow Old Collegian, Winifred Hutchings (May). The new shelves which we received during second term were also very welcome as they eased the overcrowding in the Art section. On Hobbies' Day, as usual, the Library was open for inspection and a large number of new books were on display. We would like to thank all those parents and girls who were good enough to donate some of their books to the Library. The Library Committee has attended two Library meetings this year. During first term, Geoffery Blaney was the speaker at an evening held at Geelong College, and in second term the Hermitage held a meeting with Ivan Southall as guest-speaker. Mr. Southall, who won this year's Children's Book Award with his " Ash Road," gave us an entertaining talk on his life as an author. In closing I would like to thank Mrs. Clarke and all the members of the Committee for all the work they have done during the year, and wish next year's committee a happy and successful time in the Library. Una McIntyre, Librarian.

A number of combined Morongo and Geelong College committee meetings have been held for the first time this year. As a result of these meetings, we have joined with College in holding a Talent contest at Morongo where $46 were raised; a Camp at Ocean Grove on the theme " Boy-Girl Relationships " which was attended by eighty senior boys and girls, and a modern Church service held at St. David's where badges were presented to members of both clubs. Thirty-six girls received badges that night, and after the service there was an hour of coffee and folk songs held in the hall. All these meetings were most successful and we hope there will be more co-operation with the College in future. During first term, the girls prepared articles for our mission box which was dedicated by Miss McLeod, and entered in the Geelong and District competition where we gained a large number of prizes. Speakers this year include Mr. Chislett from Geelong College, who spoke on " The Meaning of Christianity Today," Debby Gottleib, our exchange student from the U.S.A., who showed slides and spoke of " home," and Julius Patching, the manager of the Olympic team in Tokyo. We have also had a hairdressing and makeup demonstration given by Miss Barbara Valpied, film afternoons and evenings, barbecues, and two or three general meetings. A great deal of money has been raised both from the girls' collections, a sale of Boat Race ribbons and the Talent Contest. A number of the senior P.F.A. girls entertained members of the Ernabella Choir at lunch at Morongo when they visited Geelong earlier this year, and everyone thoroughly enjoyed their performance that evening. The Committee has taken Sunday prayers on a few occasions when Miss Shaw has been away, and at these times, as well as at meetings, the members have heartily joined in with the modern hymns played by our pianist, Anne Liddle. This year, a larger percentage of the members has attended each meeting and it is pleasing to see that a record number of 120 members has been reached. In closing, I would like to thank Miss Shaw and Mr. Bentley for their assistance throughout the year, and Mr. A. Martin for his leadership at the camp. My final thanks go to the Committee for their support, and to the members for their willing co-operation, and I wish next year's committee and members the best of luck for a year as successful as 1966. Susanne Brown. Dressmaking Report

This year has been a very busy and satisfactory one for those girls taking dressmaking as a subject, owing to the new Intermediate and Leaving syllabus brought in at the beginning of the year. The usual fashion parade on Hobbies' Day was not held this year because of the large amount of hand embroidery, so all work was displayed in the Hall. During 3rd term, Mrs. Gowland, the Educational Director of McCall's patterns, came to Morongo and spoke to us of her work. Also during Page Twenty-one

third term, two new sewing machines were donated to the School, one by the Afternoon Auxiliary of the Parents and Friends' Association and the other by the School Council. These were greatly appreciated by all the dressmaking pupils. On behalf of all the dressmaking girls we would like to thank Mrs. Webb for all the help and advice that she has given us during the year. Jennifer Dickens and Ruth Goldsworthy.

P.G.A. Report

This year P.G.A. began on the 11th March, 1966. The following girls were elected as office-bearers: President, Prudence Lamont; Secretary, Catherine Graham; Treasurer, Jennifer Davies; VicePresident, Pamela Lamont. This year there were thirty members who have attended most meetings and have been very co-operative throughout the year. My thanks go to them. We have had various activities after our meetings, which included a games afternoon, newspaper letters, a crazy hat competition, a hike, a talent quest and a barbecue. An Annual Badge Dedication Service was held and nineteen members received their badges. Many squares were knitted and they have been made into a rug for Social Service. Mrs. Shanks left at the end of 1965 and so I would like to thank Susanne Brown, Janine Martin and everyone else who has supported the club with unfailing interest this year. Good luck to next year's members. Prudence Lamont.

Miss Wadelton

Page Twenty-two

It is with regret that the School learns of Miss Wadelion's retirement at the end of this term. She has a wonderful record of service to the School — 37 years, during which time literally hundreds of successful music students have passed through her capable hands. Miss Wadelton studied at the Melbourne Conservatorium where she gained a Diploma of Music and her life has been truly devoted to her work. She is interested in all aspects of her art and one of her most successful innovations in Morongo was the Music Club for boarders and latterly for day girls also. Miss Wadelton has private music pupils as well as those in School and her boundless energy often sees her through a 12 hour working day! Although she is retiring from most of her. School commitments, Miss Wadelton intends to teach some of our senior music students in order to avoid a change of teacher at this late stage, but in general her work will be considerably less and the whole School hopes, most sincerely, that she will find more time in which to relax. We thank her for her years of untiring devotion to the music of Morongo, for her guidance and inspiration and wish her joy and contentment in the years to conic.

Art Report Art As A Discovery "To be alive is to be aware, curious, active, sensitive, productive, adventurous, concerned, involved. To be dead is to be none of these things. Art increases our state of aliveness by expanding and deepening our state of awareness. Art discovers, heightens, refines life experiences, it brings our emotions to our attention and makes us fully feel them. Art serves to clarify our feelings. Until we express emotions we do not know what they are. The work of art sums up and reflects the discoveries the artist has made about his environment and about himself. For the child, as for the man, Art is a way of discovery which leads to new understanding of the physical world in which he lives and of the self: it gives new meaning and significant form to his life". —Dr. D'Arcy Hayman. "Art andMan."

expeditions, exhibitions At the beginning of first term, Matricu lotion and Leaving art students attended a film presentation at the Geelong Library where Australian and European art was shown. Later in the term, Sub-Intermediate A girls visited the Geelong Art Gallery to view the H. F. Richardson Art Prize. The Coombe Down Galleries held exhibitions which Matriculation and Leaving students attended.

Towards the end of term, Sub-Intermediate P were let loose to re-decorate the Art Room, which now sports a black-red-white decor, with even the stools painted in football stripes. Several girls were fortunate enough to attend the White House Pottery School during the May school holidays. During second term, the Leaving art students visited various Melbourne Art Galleries. At the Secondary Schools' Exhibition, Morongo was well represented. Jill Robbins' entry "The Idlers" received high praise as the most

exciting exhibit, and nine other students' work was highly commended by visiting artists and art teachers; Jan Spokes' and Jillian Smith's paper sculpture received special mentions. Sub-Intermediate produced an interesting colour movie film which was shown at the end of the term. The proceeds made will go towards a daylight screen. Also, an exhibition of students' work was held at the same time in the Art Room. Once again, students attended the vacation pottery school.

An excursion to Melbourne was made by Intermediate, Leaving and Matriculation girls at the beginning of third term to visit the South Yarra Galleries, the Australian Galleries and Georges' Galleries. Several girls attended the Students' Week-end Workshop at the Teachers' Training College, organised by the Geelong Art. Teachers' Association. Towards the end of the term, senior students attended a lecture on design at the Gordon Technical College. For the Mid-year School Dance, Michelle Miles originated the colourful theme of `Spiders' while for the Senior Boarders' Dance Jill Muller chose the theme of ' Daisies.' To Miss Bodily, our new practical Art teacher, and Miss Philip, our History of Art teacher, thank you for your help and encouragement throughout the year. Rosemary 'Laidlaw.

Junior School Notes

This year, more than ever, it has became obvious that the changes in education are allowing children to develop as individuals, to make greater use of innate ability and to enjoy a wider variety of interests and pleasures. It has been especially obvious that children gain much from opportunities created by parents and are able to work at a higher level than those whose education is left entirely to the school. Thoughtful conversation, encouragement and help in choice of books from public libraries, educational visits of interest, encouragement to listen to suitable radio sessions and to watch appropriate television shows have all helped to widen and develop the children's knowledge. Girls given these advantages are forging ahead and leaving behind those who are not given simple advantages. With a higher requirement in education the child of today is not one of yesteryear who "must be seen and not heard". Reading is all important and the new system known as I.T.A. (Initial Teaching Alphabet) which has been in use for two years at Morongo, has convinced us that it answers all requirements. The little beginners are developing into avid readers and show how much knowledge they gain by their written stories. It was a revelation to check a set of Project books from Grade IV during the last term. The topic "A Free Choice" showed the widest of interests and the opportunities of the children. From a knowledge and story of "'Music" as shown in one book, to illustrations and a summary of "A Day in Moscow" in another, the topics were many and varied, and in some cases very refreshing. Essays which followed were enlightening. Children set out in detail their manner of approach to the subject, opportunities presented to them by parents, and, more important, revealed that the knowledge which they had gained had been understood and retained. The wide variety of interests and knowledge within the group made it very evident that children cannot be treated as a class, but as very important individuals. On the recreational side the Annual Sports, which were held in April resulted in a win for Lawson House. The Junior Championship was won by Jennifer Smith NN jib Suzanne Gillett. as runner-up. Again , the Junior School combined with the Senior School and invited parents to attend an exhibition of work early in November. For the first time, the Christmas Party and Prize-giving were combined in one function in the School Hall. The innovation was met with approval and may well become a permanent arrangement. A very important section of our School is the Nursery, which becomes increasingly important to us. Each year the little ones feel more and more a part of the School and enjoy the regular visits to their class-rooms of the future. As the festive season draws near, we wish to thank all those who have co-operated loyally with us throughout the year awl we offer to them the seasons greetings. Page Twenty-five

Speech Night, 1965

The Annual Speech Night was held at the Palais Royal, on 8th December, 1965. Our guest speaker was Professor R. Selby Smith, M.A. (Oxon), A.M.T. (Harvard), F.A.C.E., and Mrs. Selby Smith graciously presented the prizes. Sports' trophies were once again presented by Mrs. E. G. Ruxton, President of the Old Collegians. Miss Shaw commented on her report and on School activities in general, and the School Choir under the direction of Miss J. Blowes sang a traditional air " He is Born, the Child Divine " and " An Earthly Tree, a Heavenly Fruit " by William Byrd.

Shakespeare Report

The 1966 performances of scenes from plays by Shakespeare continued a tradition which began in Morongo in 1925. This year, girls from the senior Literature classes acted five excerpts from four Shakespearian plays, in the Gertrude Pratt Hall. Intermediate P. presented the Palace Scene from " A Midsummer Night's Dream," with leading roles taken by Elizabeth McRae as Peter Quince, Kerren Steele as Bottom, Andrea French as Francis Flute. Other major parts were taken by Wendy McLean, Anne Thomson, Sally-Anne Cuttriss, Barbara Selman and Gillian Horne. From this climax of hilarity, the audience was plunged into the stirring tragedy of the murder of Caesar from " Julius Caesar," which was well played by Intermediate A. Among the leading characters were Rennie Potter who gave a capable performance as Caesar, Jan Spokes as Marcus Antonius, Katherine Pearcy as Marcus Brutus and Anne Brownsworth as Cassius. Roman scenery was left, while the audience was whisked back to England, where Leaving A. and Leaving P. played two scenes from "Richard II," and Matriculation presented a scene from " King Lear." Leaving P. acted the Farewell scene from " Richard II " with Robyn Sisson and Alison Randle as Richard II and his Queen, Ruth Goldsworthy as Northumberland, and Elizabeth Dennis as Exton. Leaving A. acted the Abdication scene with leading roles taken by Elizabeth McLeod as Richard II, Judith Reid as Bolingbroke, Anne Wesley as the Bishop of Carlisle, Gillian Menzies as Northumberland and Heather McLennan as the Duke of York. Matriculation presented the opening scene from " King Lear," depicting the dividing of the kingdom with Michelle Miles as Lear, Barbara Guthrie, Judith Bayliss and Prudence Hewitt as Lear's daughters, Cecily Moreton as Kent, Lynne McGregor as the King of France and Helen Thompson as the Duke of Burgundy. On behalf of both the players and spectators, I would like to thank both Miss Williams and Miss Forster for the time and energy tat they gave so wholeheartedly to make yet another successful Shakespeare Day. Cecily Moreton.

School Dance, 1966

Page Twenty-six

The Annual School Dance was held on June 5th. The hall was decorated in the form of a spider's den. A huge black spider with orange eyes and mouth and long, black legs covered the brick wall and two smaller spiders, with orange, pink and black balloons, decorated the drink stand and the band stand. Orange and pink streamers cascaded from the ceiling and on the stage was a large

bow] of flowers sprayed to match. To complete the atmosphere the drink waitresses were dressed as " Little Miss Muffets." Our guests included Miss Shaw, Miss Sutherland, Miss Henderson, Miss Rentoul, Mr. and Mrs. Thwaittes, Mr. and Mrs. Coggin, Mr. and Mrs. McAdam, the Hermitage prefects, a group of Chanel prefects and prefects and boys from Geelong College and Geelong Grammar School. The evening again took the form of a programme dance which seems to be popular with everyone. Most of the supper was provided by the day girls and was served in the dining hall which was decorated with candles arranged with gum nuts and flowers sprayed gold and silver. My thanks go to Miss Rentoul who helped greatly with the organization of the supper, and to the prefects and senior girls who worked for weeks beforehand to make the dance a success. Also I would like to thank the kitchen staff and the ground staff for their co-operation and Mrs. Gilbert who arranged the flowers. Janette McAdam.

Social Service Report, 1966

Social Service this year has played an active part in School activities. First term we had two very interesting people to speak to us. Mr. Smith from the Community Aid Abroad described his experiences in India and explained that we are trying to help the people to use the resources they have to the best possible advantage, and to help themselves, as well as giving them material aid. Miss Hore told us about the work and aims of voluntary Service abroad. She, herself, had been to New Guinea as a volunteer and gave a very realistic and vivid account of her two years there. Second term, traditionally, is when we have our main appeal, and this year it was for the St. Hilda's University College Building Appeal. This was run on a competitive basis among the four houses, by voluntary donations to the " house bottles," fetes, the sale of soup and fruit salad, cleaning shoes and a folk concert. A barbecue was held during two lunch hours, and earlier in the term, 3 cartons of books and magazines brought by the girls, were sent to the bookstall in aid of the appeal. The final amount sent to St. Hilda's was $300, the success of the appeal being the result of enthusiastic support from the whole School and the tremendous amount of thought and effort on the parts of the House Captains, Prefects and matriculation girls. • During the year we have been collecting bottle tops and stamps to send to the women of the University, this term we sent nearly 200 woollen garments to them, for children overseas. As well as its individual effort, each form has had a fete some lime during the year to help raise money. In addition to this, some forms have made extra efforts by knitting squares for rugs and putting on form plays. I would like to thank the parents for the important part they have played in constantly supporting all we have done, the girls for their keen co-operation and Mrs. Bickford, Miss Botterill, Miss Leigh, the other members of the staff, and particularly Miss Evans, for their willing work throughout the year.

Hamilton Trip

During the first weekend of third term, the Senior A. basketball and hockey teams visited Alexandra College in Hamilton, and spent two very enjoyable days playing matches, meeting the girls and being shown around Myrniong, Alexandra College and Boys' College. We left Morongo at approximately seven o'clock on the Saturday morning, arriving at Myrniong a little later than expected; we were faced with the problem of deciding when we arrived, which gate would scrape the least paint off the bus. An enthusiastic welcome awaited us and we were met by the girls who were to be our hostesses. Having finished morning tea, we were shown to our respective sleeping quarters; Miss Rainsford, Miss Hobbs, Jennifer Moles and Jane Urquhart having the privilege of sleeping in the new wing which the girls had only moved into a few days earlier, The rest of us were placed in the Cottage, the Chalet and the main house, sleeping comfortably in bunks. After a picnic lunch we all changed into sports-tunics and trudged, with heavy stomachs, over to the hockey field. The home team defeated us 2-1 after a very energetic and interesting match. The basketball was played at Pedrina Park, not far from Myrniong, this time our team being successful and winning 47-36 with great teamwork on both sides. With the matches finished, we all returned to Myrniong, some hurredly, for refreshments and hot showers. This was followed by a barbecue consisting of chops, sausages and salad at the foot of the " Arcadia " which is the old hay loft. About half an hour later, two buses took us to A.C. where we saw " Carry On Spying," with the junior A.C. boarders and some of the B.C. boys, and had a pleasant evening's entertainment. Sunday morning produced the usual breakfast rush, and when it was over, we were shown over the boarding house and classrooms. We then walked to B.C. where Mrs. Waters, the headmistress, took us over the new Science Block and proceeded to show us a ratbreeding experiment demonstrating Mendel's laws concerning heredity; also the various other laboratories and library which complete the block. A church service at St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church with some of the day team members present on the Sunday morning, was followed by a roast dinner at A.C. At about a quarter past two we headed back to Geelong after reluctantly saying goodbye to all the new friends we had made. On behalf of all the girls who were present on the trip, I would like to thank Miss Rainsford and Miss Hobbs for arranging the matches and for taking us; I know that they enjoyed the trip just as much as the girls themselves. Our special thanks go to Mrs. Waters for allowing us to become part of her school and for giving us such a wonderful time. Miss Ladd also did a great deal in preparing the matches and making all the arrangements, so I would like to thank her also and hope that all her efforts and time spent preparing for our visit were not in vain. We appreciate everything that was done for us and hope that next year our girls will be able to arrange a similar weekend. Sally Odgers. Page Twenty-nine

Report of Afternoon Auxiliary,

The meetings of the Auxiliary are generally held on the fourth Tuesday of the month in the McPhillimy Hall, St. George's Church, La Trobe Terrace, at 2 p.m. Office-Bearers for 1966 were: Mrs. M. Richardson, President; Mrs. B. Campbell, Vice-President; Mrs. H. Katz, Secretary; Mrs. J. Freeman, Assistant Secretary; Mrs. E. McLean, Treasurer; and a Committee of five. The opportunity to meet the teachers at the School, combined with an address by several staff members, was a much appreciated innovation. Some parents of day girls also accepted Miss Shaw's invitation to meet mothers of boarders before the commencement of third term. Our best attendances during the year have been at morning coffee parties. Members enjoyed a cooking demonstration given by Committee member, Mrs. D. Ingpen, also a floral demonstration given by members of the Floral Art Society. In June we combined with the Junior Auxiliary to hear an address by Miss Shaw, who related some interesting and amusing incidents from her overseas tour. Other speakers during the year were Mr. McDonough, advising us on how to make our money grow by investment, and Mr. Ross Scott discussing gemstones. Members worked enthusiastically as usual to make the Annual Fete a social and financial success. In accordance with our agreement with the Parents' and Friends' Association to accumulate funds for a major project, no large sums have been spent during the year. However, to meet immediate needs a tea urn and electric sewing machine were purchased for the School. Mothers of new girls and those leaving the Junior Auxiliary are invited to join the Afternoon Auxiliary where they will be most welcome. On behalf of the Auxiliary may I thank Miss Shaw and staff members for their interest and co-operation. Our thanks also go to Mrs. Richardson, who retires after several years of service and leadership, to Mrs. Freeman, who retires after two years of hard work as Assistant Secretary, and to the Committee, who have worked enthusiastically to make our meetings run smoothly. Maureen Katz, Hon. Secretary.

Tuckshop Report

The Canteen has opened more frequently this year, and as a result, soft drinks, sweets and ice-creams are now available to the girls at recess, lunchtime and after school and to the boarders at various times during the week-end. Day girls have been able to order rolls and buns for their lunches and pies during second term, and hot lunches have been provided for those girls who wish to have them. I would like to thank the girls of the Senior forms and the Matriculation boarders, who have assisted in running the tuckshop, and also on behalf of all the girls thank Maria very sincerely for managing the Tuckshop, and for the help she has extended to us in organizing our form fetes. Janet Cox.

Council Notes

Rev. K. MacLean The Council was very sorry indeed to receive the resignation of the Rev. Kenneth MacLean as School Chaplain and as a member of the Council. His bright and cheerful personality has been missed from meetings for some time, owing to his long and distressing illness which brought about his retirement as parish minister of the School Church, St. David's. Everyone regrets that ill health has so prematurely cut short his direct association with Morongo. Boarding House The next major building project to be undertaken is a new boarding house, which is likely to be erected to the north-east of the Gertrude Pratt Hall. A ground plan and a sketch of the proposed building have been approved, and work is now proceeding on the preparation of detailed plans and working drawings. Building work should commence early in 1967, on the first stage which will accommodate about 25 pupils. Building Fund As supporters have been generous over the years with gifts of money, it was thought desirable formally to establish a building fund and register it with the Taxation Office, to ensure that such gifts will continue to be tax deductible. A set of rules has now been approved by the Commissioner of Taxation, and a separate bank account opened into which any gifts will be paid from now on. Fees The basic wage increase and a rise in teachers' salaries made it necessary once again to make a small increase in tuition and boarding fees. The Council was pleased to be able to minimise the increase and so maintain the fees at a lower level than those of most comparable schools. Grounds Trees have been planted and more are still to be planted to replace those which will be lost when the Ballarat Road is widened. The work of keeping the grounds in order is constantly growing, as the new top oval is developed, and as new lawns are established around additional buildings. Although some of the property is not used directly for School purposes, the Council never ceases to be thankful for the foresight of its predecessors in purchasing the 103 acres. History The Council has authorised the preparation of a jubilee history and has requested a former member of the teaching staff to undertake this work. Although a more direct request will be made later, we suggest now that anyone who possesses material likely to be of assistance might consider communicating with the Principal. Miss G. Pratt The Council sent greetings to the former Principal, Miss Gertrude Pratt, on the occasion of her ninetieth birthday, and received a typically cheerful and well-written reply. Page Thirty-one

Superannuation In line with other girls' schools, the Council increased its yearly contribution to teachers' superannuation to 5% of the annual salary, to provide more adequately for retirement benefits. Government Grant News has been received that the Government will probably grant the balance of the cost of the science laboratory within the three years commencing 1st July, 1968. Morongo is grateful for this help from the Government and welcomes the general acceptance of State aid without interference in the conduct of the School, as it is obviously unfair for parents to have to bear the whole cost of the education of their children while contributing through taxation to the education of other children as well. New Congregation The Geelong Presbytery has decided to try to establish a congregation at Bell Post Hill, and the School is co-operating by making available the Gertrude Pratt Hall for morning services. Eventually, it is thought that a local church may be built on part of the School property or on adjacent land. The idea of having a church which could be available as a School Chapel warrants some serious consideration. Thanks The Council would like to record its appreciation of the continued loyal service of the Principal, and members of the teaching, domestic and ground staffs, as well as the various auxiliaries and supporters of the School who all contribute to its success.

Morongo Parents' & Friends' Association

The Association continues to meet at the Kindergarten in Elizabeth Street and would be glad to welcome any Parents of Day Girls or Boarders. If you would like notices of meetings sent to you, please send your name and address to the Secretary, who will arrange to post them to you. The evenings arranged by Miss Shaw for Parents to meet members of Staff and have an opportunity to talk with them about their girls, have been much appreciated. At the beginning of 2nd Term, Parents of Boarders were entertained at afternoon tea, and met members of Staff. The plans for the new Boarding House were on display during the afternoon and were of great interest. Some Geelong Parents were able to be present, and Mr. Lucas and Miss Shaw spoke about plans for the future, and about our Association's proposed Garden Party on 18th March, 1967. As this is our main source of revenue we look forward to the generous support of all Parents and Friends on that day. The joint Committee of all organizations working for Morongo, have been pleased to have the Council's recommendation, that we could work towards providing a Canteen which would form the nucleus of a new Domestic Science Building. It has been agreed to pool resources and make this a definite project.

Page Thirty-two

We are arranging, with Mrs. Clark's co-operation, to have a display of books for Hobbies Day, hoping that visitors will be inspired to purchase some of them and present them to the Library. We are contributing 560 to the Prize Fund this year and continue to grant a Bursary of 5100 for the Violin Class, which we hear is progressing favourably. Also we have promised to be responsible for paying fees for one term for our American Field Service Student. The Annual Meeting was held in April to coincide with the Shakespeare's Day's performances of scenes from the Plays, and these we much enjoyed. To finalize our year's activities and to entertain Miss Shaw and the Staff, a Theatre Party is being arranged at the G.A.M.A. Theatre on 29th November, with supper at the Art Gallery. We look forward to a pleasant evening. During Mr. Lucas's absence on a holiday abroad, Dr. Taylor ably carried out the duties of President. Mr. Hedley and Mr. Lucas are busy preparing material for the next issue of the Bell Post Bulletin and would welcome any news items or offers of assistance. They plan to publish this edition in time for the beginning of the school year in 1967. Thanks are due to Mr. Lucas for his energetic and genial leadership. Gwen Blakiston, Hon. Secretary.

The Dramatic Report

Music Club Report

The past year has been an eventful one, full of fun, hard work and success for the music-lovers of Morongo. It was felt that the day girls should be included in the Music Club and its activities, and as a result a new system has been introduced whereby a music committee, consisting of six Matriculation music students, helps organize the musical activities of the girls under the direction of the music mistresses. Our first major attempt to prove the worth of this arrangement was the School House Music Competitions, which were held on May 6th. In contrast to the Boarding House Music Competitions, which included vocal and piano sections only, instrumental groups were introduced, so that each House presented a House Choir, Junior and Senior pianists and an instrumental ensemble. Mr. H. Newnham of Geelong College Preparatory School adjudicated the competitions and awarded first place to Roslyn, followed by Ardens, Lawson and Harris. Altogether the House Competitions were an outstanding success and well worth the work of the House captains and participants. The Celebrity concerts this year, have been held in the Geelong Theatre, and have been attended regularly except for two concerts which were held during the holidays. Artists included the pianists Louis Ketner and Mindru Katz, the violinist Alfred Campoli, the 'cellist Daniel Shafran and two performances by the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, one conducted by Sir Malcolm Sargent, and the other by Sir Bernard Heinze. On March 19th, a bus-load of girls were taken by several members of staff to a concert presented by the London Symphony Orchestra in the Melbourne Town Hall. The Orchestra, which was on an overseas tour was conducted by Istvan Kertesz, and featured solo clarinetist Gervase de Peyer. Besides attending these performances, Morongo's folk music-lovers have staged concerts of their own, several at lunchtime, and two at the Garden Party. The rising popularity of folk-music resulted in the formation of " Folk '66 " under the leadership of Rosemary Laidlaw and Cecily Moreton, and the number of enthusiastic guitarists led to Mr. Stall coming out to School on Wednesdays to give guitar lessons. The standard of the work of our folk-singers rose so rapidly that they were asked to lead a modern Church service at St. James' Presbyterian Church on August 14th. This they did so very successfully. The growing interest in guitars and folk music was accompanied by a rise in the number of girls learning other instruments. Five clarinets, three flutes and two 'cellos are in use at the moment, and there are five girls learning the violin privately and two classes in P6. Also this year ninety-four girls are studying the piano. Morongo is well represented by " would-be " pianists, however it is felt that a larger number of girls would derive pleasure and contribute a great deal to the music of the School, by learning other woodwind and string instruments. For many pianists and instrumentalists, weeks of hard work culminated in the Music examinations which were held on the 19th and 20th October. By far the largest work the Junior and Senior Choirs have attempted this year is the cantata Saint Nicolas by Benjamin Britten, however

Page Thirty-four

the Senior Choir has sung at the School Church Service, a broadcast Church service from St. David's, and participated in an Old Collegians' Church Service held on 13th November. At the Four Schools' Music Night this year, a small orchestra from Morongo consisting of violins, flutes, 'cello and piano played " Air From Beethoven's 9th Symphony " and " The Whip " a Norwegian folk-dance. The girls also presented an instrumental group including flute, clarinet and guitar and a flute and piano duet. This concert which was held on the 21st October also included items presented by members of the Hermitage, Geelong College and Geelong Grammar, and students of the four schools joined together to sing the Elgar version of the National Anthem and Vaughan Williams' 100th Psalm. It is easy to see that it has been a progressive year musically. This is because of the combined efforts of many people, but in particular I would like to thank the other members of the Music Committee, Anne Liddle, Heather Millikan, Cecily Moreton, Rosemary Tucker and Helen Thompson for their help and support, and the sincere thanks of the Committee and girls of the School go to Miss Blowes, Miss Wadelton and other members of the music staff. We appreciate all they do for us. I urge the girls returning next year to take an active part in the music of the School, for you will benefit, not only from the pleasure music can give you, but also from the pleasure that making music can give to other people. Janet Cox.

Forum Report

Forum meetings have been held every Monday after lunch. They were presided over by Miss Shaw and Miss Sutherland and were attended by the Prefects, House representatives, the School Sports Captain and Social Service Representative and the form captains from Intermediate, Leaving and Matriculation. The purpose of the meetings is to discuss School activities such as ground tidiness, conduct and Social Service activities. Our thanks go to Miss Shaw and Miss Sutherland for their help and interest shown throughout the year. Vanessa Mitchell.

Saint Nicolas

After some indecision it was decided that the combined choirs of Morongo, Geelong College and Geelong College Preparatory School should perform Benjamin Britten's choral work St. Nicolas. The three choirs practised independently under the direction of Miss Blowes, Mr. Martin and Mr. Newnham until combined rehearsals Were held during second term. This cantata was written for performance at the Centenary celebrations of Lancing College, Sussex, and concerns the life of Nicolas, Bishop of Myra, and his care of the poor and oppressed. We were proud to have Mr. Ian Lee to sing the tenor solos, and the chorus was divided into a main choir and gallery choir, and accompanied by an orchestra of strings and percussion and a piano duet played by Mr. Roger Heagney and Mr. Hartley Newnham. Owing to the difficulty of arranging nights suitable for both the orchestra and Mr. Lee, performances had to be postponed until early in third term, when two performances were held each night on the 20th and 21st September in St. George's Presbyterian Church. All four performances were highly successful, especially the last one, when the members of both choirs mustered all their enthusiasm and resources to bring the production to a thrilling climax. We sincerely thank Miss Blowes, Mr. Newnham, members of the orchestra, and especially Mr. Martin for the help and direction. they have given us. I hope that next year more girls will participate in a similar presentation, for they will find that in doing so, they will be amply rewarded. Janet Cox. Page Thtirty-seven

Page Thirty-eight

On the 25th and 26th of July, the play " J.B." was presented in the Gertrude Pratt Hall by senior students of Morongo and Geelong College under the direction of Mr. Mahar. The principal characters were Nickles, John Duigan; Mr. Zuos, Robert Spokes; J.B., Ian Scott, and Sarah, Vanessa Mitchell. Other parts were taken by Louise Mahar, Susanne Brown, Christine Moodie, Prudence Hewitt, Judith Bayliss, Susan Forsyth, Janet Brewster, Rosemary Tucker, Una McIntyre, Michelle Miles, Ian Unsworth, Paul Dixon, Robert Grover, Donald Atyeo, Geoffrey Shanks, Alex Morrison, Andrew

Wall, Colin Pryor, James Dennis, William Dennis, Gary Bigmore, John Menzies, Jeff Crellin, Michael Ritchie, Ian Prenter and Don Poynton. Rehearsals began soon after Easter but it was not until the Drama Camp at the end of the May holidays that the play began to take shape. We thank Miss Shaw and Miss Rentoul for making this camp possible. " J.B." was written by the modern American playwrite Archibald McLeish who takes the story of Job and presents it in a modern setting with the hero J.B., a modern American businessman with a happy and attractive family, going through trials which are similar in character to those of Job. J.B. and his family are summoned into the imagination of the audience by two circus hands who decide to " play ' the story of Job. Forces greater than those of the two circus hands take charge of the play and J.B. is rushed through a series of modern tortures which leave even the circus hands wondering if faith and love can still stand the test in today's world. Many people came to the play expecting light entertainment but instead saw a dramatic and thought provoking play. There was some controversy as to the choice of play and a few of the lines in it, but Mr. Mahar and the cast felt that if it were changed too much the play would not have been as authentic. Our thanks go to Mr. Mahar who spent many patient and persevering hours in producing the play, Mr. Webb who was responsible for the scenery and to all those people behind the scenes who did so much towards making the play a success. Vanessa Mitchell.

Original

Debby

Australia! I'm going to Australia! Where exactly is it and what's it like? I know there are kangaroos and rabbits and boomerangs, but what else? These were my first reactions when I discovered that I had been chosen to be an American Field Service student and that I was to be sent to Geelong in Victoria. I also found that I would be going to Morongo Presbyterian Girls' College, and at first I thought that Morongo would be a school at university level, for in the United States colleges are of the same standard as universities, but I soon discovered that this was not so. It was tremendously exciting to step off a plane into a new country; a country which was to be "my" country for a year. I met my Australian family and in less than two weeks after my arrival I was sitting in a classroom in Morongo, getting used to wearing a uniform and to hearing "God Save the Queen" on Monday mornings instead of the "Star Spangled Banner"! During my year here I haven't seen many kangaroos or rabbits or even boomerangs (apart from the ones in souvenir shops) but I have come to know Australians very well; however, it would be useless to try and compare them with Americans because that would be a great generalization. It is amazing how much people do generalize over national characteristics; for example that all Americans are big, rich, gum-chewing, crew-cut "guys" who snap pictures incessantly, and talk of the swimming pools in their backgardens. There is no need for me to say, I hope, how untrue all this is. I come from Milwaukee, Wisconsin — the best State in the Union, naturally. Milwaukee has about one million inhabitants and stands on the shore of Lake Michigan, about 90 miles from Chicago. Wisconsin has over 8000 lakes, most of them in the northern part of the State and this is where my family goes every year for the summer holidays. The water is clear, the air is fresh; the fishing is wonderful — as my father says, "It's God's own country"! I have really enjoyed my year at Morongo. I've come to like the uniform and am very proud to wear it. All the staff have been very kind and have put up with all sorts of odd things from me. I know that it took me quite a while to quit saying "Okay" to a teacher. I haven't meant to be disrespectful but the students are more casual with their teachers in the United States. I will always remember and treasure my year in Australia and hope to return in the future and see all the friends I have made. Debby Gottlieb (17 years).

The Mind

Page Fifty-four

Complex is too simple a word For the workings of a person's mind. Thought and feeling are buried deeper Than the gay colours of the covering rind. Tear away the outer peel, The finer qualities to reveal. Cecily Moreton (16 years).

Translation

The following poem was written by the famous Roman emperor Hadrian on his death-bed: "To His Soul" "0 dear little soul that is wandering at present, The guest and companion of the body, You will now go to a lifeless, cold and bare abode, Nor will you be able to crack jokes there as you are accustomed to do here." Helen Thompson (17 years).

The Sunrise

The grey dawn creeps across the sky, The birds awaken from their sleep. Their songs from bushes low and high, Re-echo through the valley deep. The clouds with pink and gold array, The sky, light blue at the coming of day. The sun climbs up to the hill's full height, And floods the earth with golden light. Rhonda Koschade (12 years).

Wilpena Pound

Nestling in the heart of the Flinders Ranges, South Australia, is a unique geographical feature, Wilpena Pound. In the shape of an amphitheatre the 82 square miles of parklike plateau are surrounded by precipitous peaks, so steep that they form a natural barrier and the only entrance to the Pound is by following on foot the creek which flows out of it. The ruins of an old farmhouse remain in the Pound after an unsuccessful attempt to farm there early this century and today the grazing rights are leased by adjacent Wilpena Station. Wilpena Pound is a great tourist attraction, especially for those people who are fond of bush-walking. During the September holidays, when the wild flowers are out and the spring air emphasises the beautiful rock colours, hundreds of families flock to the Pound and the camping ground in bush setting overflows with campers. The most rewarding (and exhausting) walk is to the top of St. Mary's Peak, 3,900 feet above sea level. Although it took us ten hours to walk the 15 miles (and some of that was on our hands and knees) the bird's eye view of the saucer shaped Pound and the rugged, old ranges made the intense weariness well worth while. Mary Honey (15 years).

The Cry of Hunger

I watch them go by throwing their rubbish down beside me. Some throw it at me, some miss and feed sparrows and dogs who come and see what food I have for them. In sun, in rain, in heat, in storm They're content to walk past — scattering their rubbish After feeding their faces But they forget the hunger of an empty rubbish bin. Pamela Ingpen (15 years). Page Fifty-five

A Day on the Rhine

It was near the close of our second day on the Rhine when we came in sight of Brawback. On a hill towering above the village stood Marksburg Castle. After finding a room in a hotel we decided to climb the steep and winding path to the castle. In Germany there are two different kinds of castles, a "schloss" which is a beautiful and luxurious palace, and a "burg" which is a fortress. From the ramparts of Marksburg Castle huge cannons used to fire shots at ships down on the river that did not pay duty to the customs officer. In the torture chamber we saw many fascinating things to punish people. Even the room where the captain slept with his family was small, dark and cold. "Marksburg Castle was already known in the year 882". Fiona Hamilton (8 years).

Storm

Angry waves, surging, Roaring, Sucking at the inert sands, Pounding, on black, glistening rocks And ebbing seaward. Wind howling, Driving sheeted rain at swordlike grasses; Lashing, flattening Until they lie, beaten into submission. Gulls wheeling, Shrieking curses to the furious gale Which answers by scudding The ominous, black clouds across the watery sky. One solitary sunbeam Pierces the gloom, to dance across The whipped, foamy waves . Bringing peace. Gillian Menzies (16 years).

Long Ago

'Twas there that the brumbies galloped free Down on the plains by the inland sea, 'Twas there the seagulls wheeled in the sky, And the dingoes howled their mournful cry. When I lived in my shanty on the shore of the sea, All round me were birds and animals free, And at night when the sun sank in gold and red; I could hear the echo of hooves, and the tread Across the tall hills, and the dry emu plains Of brumbies, galloping and dancing again. When the sun rose high in the sky at noon I would ride for the gunyah that now is a ruin, But which once was the brumbies' fighting grounds, Where the air was filled with the mighty sounds Of the pounding hooves of the stallion kings, Whilst neath the ground the cricket sings. Lynn Forsyth (12 years).

My Wishes

I wish I was a dancer, A long way o'er the sea; Dancing at Covent Garden. As happy as could be. I wish I was a rider, A riding o'er the plain; Roaming about the prairies, Then coining home again. I wish I was a mother, A tiny babe to tend; To listen to it gurgling, And to show it to a friend. But the greatest of my wishes, Is to be a poetess; To tell my listeners truly, The things that I love best. Susan Henshaw (12 years).

Aussie Rules

Now that me and Guiseppe, we is nationalized, we think maybe we should see the football — which is the sport all Australians watch. So we goes to the football ground. When we is all made into sardines, two mobs wearing ski-jumpers come rushing on to the ground and run around it picking up grass. Also comes on to the ground the fella what owns the ball. He is called many things by the sardines, but mostly he is called "Yamug." Two guys called captains, they go off together and have a game of two-up. When they tell "Yamug" the result, he gets mad and throws the ball away. The crowd she roars and I yells, "kill the mug," at which one big bloke tells me to shut my face or he'll kill me. Then a bloke with straight hair called "Curly", kicks "Yamug's" ball at two flagpoles and when the crowd she roars again, a poor fella in a white coat waves two flags to surrender, but they keep attacking him till goes the air raid siren and they all go home. As we leave I say to Guiseppe, "We better not bring any money next time we comes. 1 hear men leaving saying, "We was robbed." Rosalind Fagg (17 years).

Shearing

The buzz of activity in their ears, The shearers grasp their grimy shears: Eight hours a day they toil away, It's hard, hard work and a long, long day. Near the board the rousey stands, With a long straw broom in his hardened hands His job it is to sweep the pieces, Pen the sheep, and throw the fleeces. The classer in his coat is there, To skirt the fleece with utmost care: He tests its strength, removes all skin And puts in the proper bin. Into the press we pile the wool And tramp it down 'till the box is full, Start the motor — she's on her way, Another bale — the first today! Anne Mathison (15 years). Page Fifty-seven

Hidden Paradise

To get there you have to cross a bridge — a bridge consisting of a huge log and some strong twine. It takes you across a deep ravine, a torrent of raging fury, its tumultuous waters hissing and frothing, sending out a shower of fine spray, as that spitting fury comes into contact with the rocks. Once safely over, you follow a path which suddenly plunges you into dense, tangled undergrowth, much like the heart of a tropical jungle. Dark green creepers lie across your path, waiting to trip you up; branches from the overhead trees and young saplings catch at your dress and hair, as you walk at first, unheeding of these things, until you are tripped up by some invisible rope. Another 100 yards brings you into a gully, from where you can almost see the world. It is cool and green there, in that little private abode, inviting you to dabble your hot, swollen feet in that clear, crystal stream, which has been coursing its way over the same stones and down the same mountainside, never changing its course, for generations, and it will still be running for generations later. Its source? No-one knows. It is a world on its own — a world of tall, stately gums, green, shady ferns and blue skies. It is a Hidden Paradise, where all the occupants, birds and animals live happily together and do not fear each other. Why? Because there is no need to fight to live, for food is plenteous and in great abundance. From this small world you can see a poem, unworded, but yet the beginning of one. Two things make up this beautiful scene, a willow, its long, sweeping branches enveloped in pale, green foliage, hanging perfectly still. Underneath its leafy boughs is an ancient log, covered with lichen and moss. Its reflection in the still, clear pool, on the brink of which it stands, is in every way perfect, even to the precise arrangement of a small leaf. No small ripple on the surface of the crystalized water of the pool, disturbs the quiet beauty of one of nature's most beautiful works. Penelope Wilson (12 years).

Menura's Tapestry

There's a haunting elfin painting (is it fragrant dawn or dusk) ? Of cool, mystic, cloud-dropped mountains, Framed by blackwoods, myrtle, musk. Frisked with sparkling, brooklet fountains playing in a mossy glade, Under gleaming fern-tree masses. In the mantle of their shade. Wreathed with scented flowering grasses, Poses beautiful Menura — his wondrous plumage preening. Gaily stroking, smoothing his copper-coloured breast, His lyre - - - a silver curtain screening The gorgeous dusky, browny crest. As gracefully performing, he fans his plumes of feathered glory, Wooing and displaying in enchanting silhouette, Sings the old exquisite story, In the lovely, joyous music of courtship ettiquette. Softly, softly burnished by some Alchemy of Nature, Shivering and shimmering with elfin artistry; In the nuptial dance of rapture, Our beautiful Menura weaves a woodland tapestry. Judith Johnston (15 years).

Today

Today is today A day of bright sunshine Singing birds in trees, Young lambs frollicking in fresh green fields; Young foals running by their mothers' sides; Under blue skies and Over fresh deep green grasses. Flowers opening wide their petals To the deep warmth of the sun, Tiny buds on vines opening wide Children out picking daisies in the fields Playing and joking in the warm sunshine Happy is all of today A day of bright sunshine. Barbara Harris (15 years). Me is good Me is bad Me is happy Me is sad Me is here Me is there Me is everywhere Me is funny Me is not Me is me And that's the lot. Susan Lowe (11 years).

The History of Loch Ard Gorge

(near Port Campbell) The sailing ship 'Loch Ard', 1,623 tons, left Gravesend, England for Melbourne on the 1st March, 1878, in charge of Capt. Gibbs. The passengers included Dr. Evory Carmichael who was on his way to Sydney to start a practice. With him were his wife, four daughters, Ruby, Margaret, Annie and Eva, and his two sons, Evory and Thomas. On the night of the 30th of April the captain of the Loch Ard believed them to be 10 miles from shore, but at 5 o'clock on the morning of the first of May the Loch Ard struck a reef near Port Campbell. Six men including the apprentice. Tom Pearce managed to get the port life-boat out but it was washed overboard with the men. The ship was then carried over the reef by a huge wave and sank in deep water. All passengers, except two, perished. Tom Pearce luckily got washed into a small inlet with steep sides. After he had rested a while he heard a cry and saw Eva Carmichael clinging to a spar in the water. He swam out and rescued her. He then left her and went for help. He later returned with Messrs. Gibson, Shields, Robinson and Ford, who lived on nearby farms. The small inlet is now called Loch Ard Gorge and some of the people from the wreck who were drowned are buried in a small cemetery at the top of the Gorge. Janet-Louise Matheson (10 years).

My Favourite Recreation — Parachuting

My greatest ambition in life is to become an amateur parachutist. As my father lectures on an Air Force base, I have had many opportunities to practise this daring sport. While I am sitting in the cargo-room of a 'Hercules' many thoughts buzz through my head. "Why ever did I choose this pastime? — What could happen? — I could get killed or crippled for life — but think of that glorious take-off," are just a few horrors that fly through my head. But after the 'Warrant Officer' has revised with me all the necessary instructions and I am waiting to 'choot, I tingle all over with the excitement of knowing I am challenging the air! I'm off — falling through space at first — but then comes a jolt and the glorious instrument of the air — the parachute — unfolds. The sea-gulls cry with piercing shrieks below me. I feel ready to combat any dragon or lion that challenges me. I hear a few words above me of last-minute instruction and then silence, but for the screaming gulls, and the wind. That wind! It billows the clouds, pushing me this way—then that way—all the time howling and eerily shrieking. Down below I can see the ocean, a deep aqua-blue, with the white crests of the waves rushing to the shore, only to be pulled back again by the outgoing tide. Suddenly an icy gust of wind come from the side. This is the moment I have been waiting for. My orange parachute flaps—flutters then dies down and hangs limp, a heavy weight around my chest. Then with an immediate icy, almost numbed, thrill I 'touch-down'. Slowly I make my way upwards through the green waters to the surface, gasping for air, groping for light. At last I feel the cool air enveloping me, while I hail the 'crashboat'. As I lie exhausted on the deck, a few lines float through my mind, continually recurring— "He floats through the air, with the greatest of ease, Like the daring young man, on the flying trapeze!" Katrina Watson (11 years).

"Dread of Man"

Like the pulsing red body of a writhing snake, Like the summer sunset on a carmine lake, The crackling heat of the flames drew near And the gallant men were full of fear. Its growth was rapid with more to gain. And the sky sealed its lips against the welcome rain. The men's despair grew as the wind freshened up, And nary a man that night did sup. The charred remains of the skeleton trees Were left behind to the gentle breeze; And the ashes that cooled on the once hot earth Were all that remained of the forest's worth. Sue Berlyn (15 years).

Search

0, glorious, mystical, bountiful might— Where are you? That steered for men the course of life; That controls, by man's free choice, The waters The earth The heavens— I am searching Searching through perilous times Through great valleys of darkness Why can I not find you? Why can I not be sure? These lonely aching cells of life Ache for want, for need of you: Others have trod such paths Have they found all? Content — are they? I am tired I am sore I will be comforted I will wait on you. Catriona McGregor (14 years

Drought

The cattle are dying, And the trees are decaying, All the growth has a browny tinge The land is all cracked From the merciless sun, And no water is to be seen. No clouds in the sky, Not a breath of wind, Only the cry of the crows, The dams are all dry, So the animals will die, For no water is to be seen. Helen Freeman (12 years).

Mikki

The sun slowly filtered through the thin sticker trees and rested on the twinkling dew-drops, which lay on the short grass. Mikki, the great outlaw brumby of the Sawback Ranges, raised his black head to listen to a warbling group of black and white currajongs, who were perched in a wild dog-wood tree amongst a cluster of creamy blossoms. The pollen, shaken out by the warbles and movements of the birds, floated down to rest on the glossy coat of a chestnut mare, who was grazing contentedly on the tough bush grasses. She too raised her head and listened, then she knickered softly and walked over to Mikki. Both horses had sensed an unusual disturbance in the crisp morning air, and after listening intently for a moment or two, Mikki gently snorted to Copper, the mare and trotted off to find the rest of the herd. The herd had already sensed the unusual sounds and were pacing round restlessly, uneasy at the thought of strangers in their domain. Mikki, alert and disturbed, trotted around the mares and foals and on hearing the soft thud of horses' hooves, guided the bunch of horses into a gully close at hand. Page Sixty-one

Suddenly the herd was in a gallop, tumbling and tripping over stones in their haste, for a whip-crack broke the morning air. The currajongs had scattered and were wheeling in the blue sky, for ,they could pick out the shirts and hats of a large group of browned and tough men, astride beautiful slim-legged horses, followed by lean blue cattle dogs. On the far side of the gully the brumbies were racing up a steep winding track made by their ancestors and the bush cattle. The brumby-chasers broke into a gallop and sent the cattle dogs pelting after the fleeing herd to head them off and slow them down. Mikki was frantic and was pushing the herd as fast as possible, nipping the slowing mares with his sharp teeth. The mares who were heavily in foal, were panting and dripping sweat but galloped on in fear — nostrils dilated and the whites of their eyes showing. The foals who had been scattered throughout the herd, had now dropped to the rear, nearly dead from exhaustion, from being pushed along at such a fast pace. Copper was in the lead, for she was not as heavily in foal as the other mares, and lead then through the bush growth, hoping to throw off their followers. Quickly swinging to the right she galloped through some leaning saplings, which barred both sides. The herd followed, galloping on and on . . . . The men were getting alarmingly close and the dogs had reached the front of the herd, flashing in and out like silver lightning, nipping and yapping at the horses. Mikki, who had moved up to lead the herd through the trees, lashed and kicked out at the dogs, but they were sly and quick and dodged his flailing hooves. Suddenly a large clearing appeared through the trees. The herd galloped into it, hoping to escape, and tried to force their way through the fallen trees, and what seemed to he very thick undergrowth. Desperate and fear-ridden the herd realised that they were trapped! Men seemed to be everywhere — the brumbies looked in a hope for freedom. Whips were cracking, dogs barking and choking brown dust was everywhere! Crash! A large portion of the undergrowth and leaning saplings fell down, leaving a raw wooden fence in its place -- the brumbies had been tricked. Thais Horne (13 years).

My Impressions

Page Sixty-two

Wilsons Promontory "Camp Out" (A trip with the Geelong Field Naturalists) We're travelling to Melbourne, the weather is fine, Then out through the traffic, line upon line. Green pastures come in to view as we pass, Jerseys and Guernseys and Friesians and grass. Huge rhododendrons and mint bushes vast, Townships and villages come — and fly past.

Dairy herds, beef herds, and green all the way, Does anyone tire of it day after day? Trees by the wayside. — the colours are legion; Heath and clematis abound in this region. On to the Prom. now — a wallaby leaps; We stop for a wombat that silently creeps. The lights of the "Wallaby Lodge" meet our view; Let's unload our luggage without more ado. Car loads of people and blankets and meetings, Boxes of eatables, bedrooms and greetings. A cup of hot coffee at quarter to ten, A big day to-morrow — we'll see you all then. A typewriter tapping, a bird in a tree, Let's get up early, there's so much to see. The parrots are friendly, they feed from the hand; Look at the pattern of claws in the sand. Sausages, bacon, egg and burnt toast, Appetites grow when we visit the coast. Up to Mt. Oberon — view is divine; Isn't it great that the weather is fine! Ti-trees and wattles are there by the score, Correa, iris and myriads more. Bright yellow daisies and banksias tall; How can I ever remember them all! The sweet, black-eyed Susan seems anxious to meet The red Running postman in bashful retreat. Look at the skink as it basks on a stone; Look at the colours in granite alone. We're off for a hike now, follow who will; It's orchids we're looking for out on the hill. Cameras are ready. Mind where you walk! Look out for candid shots too while you talk. Trigger plants, cone bush — the bay is in sight. I must find an orchid before it is night. On to the beach where the Tidal runs through, A picturesque bridge enhances the view. Home through the park — the hungry gulls fight; Barbecued steak makes the world seem just right. Over the ridge now and round Squeaky Bay, The silver sand squeaks as we go on our way. The bravest adventurers find the surf cool; The cowards sit dabbling their togs in a pool. The longest way home is the sweetest they say; 1 doubt that my feet would describe it that way. What else I remember? a swim before tea, A bird in a nest with its young ones to see. Films of New Guinea, New Zealand and more, The heart of Australia and near our own door. Pictures of insects and birds rarely seen, Flowers of breath-taking beauty on screen. The Promontory grips you — it's wild and it's gay; Let's hope we don't spoil it; let's leave it that way. Barbecues, emus, blue orchids, and pink, Birds in the ti-tree — I'm too tired to think. My brain's in a whirl but I'd just like to say, It's a trip I'll remember for many a day. Carolyn Cassidy (17 years). Page Sixty-three

King of the Sorcerers

The leaden day deliberately encloses The stagnant water hole. The weary Gum stoops like a crumpled parchment Whose yellowed leaves crackle as they turn. A trance has been spelled over life — The great hypnotist peers from his cape Of steaming blue. Even the birds in the trees Are muted by the hanging silence, And the listless flies strive to move, Crawling over the sweat swathed face Of the stockman, bathing in his horse's eyes. The whole oasis is in a coma, All action is involuntary, from the wiping of the forehead, To the swearing at the flies. Eternity is almost in sight, when the sun, Forced to break the hypnosis, slips To the horizon, taking the furnace heat with him. A final effort not to break the trance And the sun throws all his glory forth — The heavens, drenched in brilliant gold and purple Proclaims near and far the royal death. Cecily Moreton (16 years).

"The Tantanoola Tiger"

Tantanoola is a small town in South Australia, about twenty-five miles north of Mount Gambier. Many years ago lots of people began losing up to twenty sheep a 'night. They just seemed to vanish and absolutely no-one could work out just where they were going. One night a man from near Mount Gambier went out to watch to see how these sheep were disappearing. He shot the tiger and brought it for everyone to see. It was not really a tiger but a Syrian wolf and was believed to have escaped from one of the ship-wrecks near by. There were quite a few wrecks along these coasts at this time. This Syrian wolf was stuffed and put in a glass case. This is now in the Tantanoola Hotel. The gun with which it was shot is beside it, you can also see the bullet wound. Recently it had to be moved into a better glass case because its fur began to fall out. Sometimes Tantanoola is referred to as "Tiger Town". Deidre Hookings (14 years).

A Day in Moscow

After having lunch, Daddy and I joined a few people on a German spoken tour to the Kremlin. On the east side of Lenin Square, running right down to the Moscow River is the Kremlin, this is a former royal palace of the Czar, which is now a museum. After entering the building we had to take off our shoes and put on huge slippers which fell off my feet. We had to wear these because of the polished floors. Inside we saw armour, ancient carriages, china, silverware and jewellery. We also saw crown jewels more magnificent than the ones in England. In addition to the museum of splendid things, the Kremlin is the home of the Premier of Russia. Meetings of the Supreme Soviet Government are also held within the Kremlin walls.

Derbyshire Well Dressing

Many years ago, Each year in spring: They dressed the wells, And around them did sing. The pretty flowers, In a plaque were placed; And by the Vicar, They were graced. This was done, To make the rain; For another year, Pure again. Jacqueline Connor (12 years).

Jungle Beauty

The dark, shadowing mountains, which rose high above the dense undergrowth were the background. Native grasses and flowers were scattered over the mountains. The clear sky was like a mirror, reflecting the gleaming sun, on the crisp, baked leaves of the great giants. This dense underg rowth was composed mostly of creeping parasites, which cling to bushes, native weeds and scrub. Mosses were the jungle's carpet, spread under great roots, which knitted together with the creepers of this jungle, made with the careful care of Mother. Nature's wonderful hands': A glistening, sparkling stream, bubbled over the smooth, round stones, which had been rounded by the continuous flow of water. Strange flowers and weeds, with spouting tentacles, lay idly on the banks of this bright ribbon of water. Bark from the trees, hung over these weeds. It seemed as though it had been stripped, or pulled off to form wavy streaks, like checked snakes hissing and slithering along the thin branches. This brightness coloured the wings of the picture, and the reddish berries sploshed together to form dark crimson leaves on their olive backgrounds. All these beautiful plants, placed and arranged properly, created "jungle beauty". Trudy Hepburn (14 years). Page Sixty-five

Dad, You're A Square

" Turn that T.V. off, I'm not having any daughter of mine raving over those packs of nuts. Put 'em in the army; that's what they should do with the whole bang lot of 'em. What's this modern world coining to Fay (Mum) ? I've given that daughter of mine the best education that anyone could hope for, and what's she do all day when she's home, swoons over nothing but a pack of animals, with long hair. Barbara, get that hideous looking thing off. Do you realize how crazy you look? What would Mrs. Barr say if she saw you in a weird outfit like that; I can hear Lismore now. " That's Andrew Borbidge's daughter, you wouldn't think he'd let her loose in something as disgusting as that would you." Out, out, out, and change on the double. Do I have to yell at you again? Turn that record player down. You call that " belly-ache " screeching singing? You listen to Bing Crosby and then you'll really know what a good voice is, not like those hooligans. Go to a Surf Club Dance; My daughter at 151 go to a Surf Club Dance? You must be joking Barbara. Do you read the papers? Do you know what happens to young girls who go to these kinds of things? You could get murdered, or end up in one of those gang brawls. Oh no, my daughter stays " put " for at least another year. Of all the things to ask, could she go to a Surf Club Dance. At her age I was milking a cow or doing something useful, not running about wild with a pack of irresponsible louts or T-E-E-NA-G-E-R-S. What's that you're doing? Dancing you say? Well looking at it from here it looks like an aboriginal coroboree. My daughter throwing herself about like that, where have the good old days gone, when we did the Old Time Waltz and the Evening Three Step. What she needs, is to be put over my knee and given a good hiding. She might be a teenager, but as far as I'm concerned I can still give her an old fashioned spanking." Barbara Borbidge, 15 years.

IA is with deep regret that we record the death of Lorraine Bengtsson, on 26th October. Lorraine was at Morongo from 1954 to 1956 inclusive, and in her last year was a Deputy Prefect, Librarian, on the Lucernian Committee and was equal Dux of the School. Our sincere sympathy is with her father in this great sorrow.

NEWS AND NOTES Congratulations to J can Russel who was awarded a Churchill Scholarship in the Penal Division of the Public Service. M ander- J ones Lois (McDonald) whose husband is South Australian Director of Education, has been studying Social Economics at the University where she has also passed in two histories and psychology.

A group of Old Collegians made a pact on 5/6/1955 to meet on 6/7/66 and 18 girls remembered and met at the Kingsway Motel — those present were Wendy -Hudson, Jeanette Middleton, Pauline Maunsell, Di Moore, Di Butler, Mardi Poulston, Sue Falk, Elizabeth Roland, Lorraine Wallis, Judy Noble, Lesley Helmer, Barbara Tampion, Marion Frazer„Annette Cook, J eanette Pederson and Jackie Gorell. Helen Cougle from New South Wales sent a telegram. This is an idea others might like to follow. No one was reminded, the onus was on each girl to remember— well done those who came along. Erica Wallace is an "A" reporter with the London Sketch — she has been in Israel for two weeks and has just returned to London. News from Margaret Leigh tells us that she is nursing in Canada and hopes to move on through the United States — she sends her best wishes to those who remember her. She intends to be overseas for about five years. Margery Snow (Tritchler) is living in Invercargill, New Zealand, where her husband is connected with large freezing works. She has two boys and a girl— she sends good wishes to her friends in the Association. From Scotland comes news of Pat Cleveland (Pat Blakiston). She is living at Dallor and is teaching with the Scottish Education Department. Congratulations to Elizabeth Boddy who is the first woman in Australia to hold a degree in Town and Regional Planning — she is with the City of Heidelberg as Planning Officer. Norma McArthur has been Acting Associate Professor in Canberra (luring Dr. Barry's absence overseas — her branch is Statistics and she was sent on tour of the Pacific .\rea by the Commonwealth Government. Margaret McArthur whose interest has been in the Northern Territory is mentioned in Colin Simpson's book, the " Aborigine." Jennifer (le Pagny has joined the staff of the Commonwealth Banking Corporation in Deniliquin.

Kathleen Badger has been making headlines — for 19 years she has been a head librarian with the United Nations— she sometimes is homesick for Australia but the U.N. has a very firm hold on her. It is good to know Old Collegians still think of their School even though thousands of miles away — Nora Sutorius (Volk) had K.L.M. Airlines send an excellent film on Amsterdam to Miss Shaw for showing to the girls. This was very much appreciated. Another one who thinks of her School from afar is Joanna Pyper — she has a very interesting, but no doubt lonely, position with the North-West Health Authorities in British Columbia. Congratulations to Adele Doonan who won an award for designing slumber wear in a Lingerie Designing Contest. Natalie Hall has also been entering contests and came first in the Junior Day Style of the State-wide Hairstyling Championships. Old Collegians connected with Morongo this year include Edith Leigh. Margaret Henderson, Jean Renton]. Janice Bell and Barbara Webb. The Roslyn girls will remember with affection Miss Isobel Owen who came to the School from Miss Harris' at the inception of Morongo. It is with regret that we record her death and our sympathy is extended to her family.

MELBOURNE BRANCH Annual Report, 1966 The I elbourne I ranch has had a very happy and successful year and we hope to continue our success in 1967. We welcomed Phyllis Orchard and Elaine Howden to our committee this year ; Helen MacGowan resigned and Meredith Middleton has moved to Perth so our office-bearers are now : President : Lorna Cooper. Secretary-Treasurer : man.

Bunty Pen-

Committee : Min. Thompson, Elsie Bishop, Joan Swain, Phyllis Orchard and Elaine Howden. At our 1965 October Re-union we welcomed Miss Sutherland and members of the Geelong committee and we heard a report of school activities. Although Miss Sutherland's visit was due to Miss Shaw's trip overseas she will always be welcome at any future re-unions. We greeted Miss Shaw again at our next meeting in April and all enjoyed her entertaining address on some of her experiences. She mentioned especially 01(1 Collegians with whom she had shared some time and we saw some photos of the re-union arranged in London. Our first Supper Dance on Friday, 15th April at 9 Darling Street, where 250 Old Collegians and friends shared the festive atmosphere, was a great success both socially and financially and enabled us to give Miss Shaw $200 for Page Eighty-four

the School. This amount included profit from the Supper Dance, proceeds from our Opportunity Table and donations from Pat Glover, Frances Stevens and Paddy Milne. because of the success and enthusiastic reports on our Dance this year, we have booked 9 Darling Street again, for Friday, 17th March, 1967, and we hope our Old Collegians' response will even surpass their 1966 effort. Lorna Hooper, 129 Winmallee Road, North Balwyn, phone 83,1359, or any other member of the committee will welcome any enquiries. The Business and Professional Womens' Club has moved its rooms and we now meet at Manton House, 6th Floor, 262 Flinders Lane. We have our next Re-union planned for 10th October when we have arranged for some Old Collegians to give five-minute talks on unusual occupations. Sunday, 13th November, is the date of our Church Service at the Presbyterian Church, Banool Road, Balwyn, and we hope many Old Collegians will join IVIiss Shaw and the School Choir at this service. All members of the committee wish to express their appreciation to Lorna Hooper for her planning and untirin, enthusiasm, not only for our Supper Dance, but also for her regular representation of our Branch at School functions. The compliments of the season to you all and best wishes for good health and happiness in 1967. Bunts Penman, T-Ton. Secretary.

Then a few weeks later, in August, we held our Annual Meeting with Mrs. Ruxton being- present. Miss- Shaw was unable to come on this Occasion. The committee provided the luncheon this time at the C.W.A. hall in Shepparton. Our guest speaker, Mrs. Ruxton, told us of news from the Geelong Branch and also took the chair for the election of office-bearers for the ensuing year. President : Betty Thornton. Secretary: Hilda Wotherspoon (Tucker). Treasurer : Gwen Jensen (Bradshaw). How proud we are of the honour bestowed on Miss Shaw by the Queen. We offer her our congratulations.

Best wishes to all Old Collegians during the next year, hoping we will all continue to give our support to all Morongo activities. Betty Thornton, President.
