Editorial

This year great controversy has resulted from the inclusion of a number of books on the required reading list of the Matriculation English Expression syllabus, namely D. L Lawrence's " Sons and Lovers " and " Go Tell It on the Mountain " by James Baldwin. The chief objection appears to be that their realistic portrayal of the more sordid side of twentieth century life is too advanced for the uppermost form of secondary education: a criticism which the younger generation regards as unjustified. Those adults who would not permit these novels to be incorporated feel that because they are still at school, students are children and must be treated as such: the consequences of this attitude are evident in the widespread student riots, making 1968 be remembered as the year of student revolts: treated as children, the students react in this manner. Yet there is no criticism of the reading habits of the adolescent who is earning his living, instead of furthering his education: the only restrictions on his life are those that apply to adults themselves. Moreover, from the time they are sixteen, students are forced to pay adult fares and are judged by the same jurisdictional code as their elders: hence any attempt to protect them from the seamy side of society merely contradicts these principles. Owing to press exploitation of the inconsistent censorship policy, the name of D. H. Lawrence is inextricably linked with that of prohibited books. Criticism of the inclusion of his semi-autobiographical novel " Sons and Lovers " comes from some who have immediately assumed that it is in the same vein as his later works, whilst others fail to recognize his genius: their repugnance for the text of " Lady Chatterley's Lover " blinding them to the artistic point of his poetry, his travel works and his fiction. None of this furore has ever resulted from the study of this novel as a prescribed text for Matriculation English Literature classes: the student is here accredited with a sufficiently profound appreciation of literature to either ignore the " offensive " passages or to accept them in the light of greater understanding. The criticism directed towards James Baldwin's novel is even more vitriolic and incorporates a twofold objection; firstly to his handling of black - white relationships and secondly to the frank treatment of sexual relationships. Baldwin, himself a negro, wrote the novel early in the nineteen-fifties when the antipathy between the two races had not then degenerated into violence. Any attempts to remedy the situation at that stage failed: just as any attempt to shield the youth of today from the problem will prove futile: by ignoring the immediacy of the issue it could rapidly deteriorate into civil war: toleration and equality must be effected, and this can only result through greater understanding, which Baldwin's novel promotes. Concerning the second half of the criticism this realistic approach is warranted: in an era in which the moral standards are frequently bewailed an improvement will not be forthcoming until the responsibility is faced as appertaining to both generations. Thus by increasing the student's comprehension of the faults of contemporary society, these books are as beneficial as those set in past eras when civilization was not as advanced. For this reason alone, both " Go Tell It on the Mountain " and " Sons and Lovers " deserve a place amongst the prescribed texts.

School Notes

At our first assembly on the 7th of February new staff members Miss Chapman, Miss Habersberger, Miss Heindorff, Mrs. Larcombe, Miss Lawson, Miss Murray, Miss Peel and Miss Winzor, joined us for the first time. Miss Williams also returned to us from her trip home to Wales last year. They and all the new girls were welcomed by Miss Shaw. Also present at the Assembly were Mr. McCann, Mrs. Heath and Mr. Waters. Our School Chaplain, The Reverend Reynolds Waters has taken our Thursday morning assemblies each week throughout the year and has also conducted scripture classes. In 1968 we have all been able to appreciate the new building extensions throughout the School. It has made the work more interesting to be able to use such modern surroundings especially our biology laboratory. The Boarders have also appreciated their new Boarding House and could not wish for better living conditions. It is therefore evident that the School Council is always working in our interest and allows us to work with the most modern educational equipment. Morongo is unfortunate this year in losing so many efficient staff members but I extend to them the thanks of the girls for all they have done and the interest they have had in the School. We also wish them every success for the future. Penelope Brian.

Head Prefect's Report

The Prefects for 1968 were Penelope Brian (Head Prefect), Anne Clutterbuck, Pauline Day, Jean Embling (Deputy Head Prefect), Mary Honey, Elizabeth McLeod, Rennie Potter, Robyn Sisson, Frances Spry and Robyn Woodburn. The Deputy Prefects were Lyn Batty, Judith Downey, Christine Duncan, Anne Mathison, Judith Menzies, Glenda Mitchell, Edith Prenter and Margaret-Anne Scott. On the 18th of February the Prefects were inducted by the Reverend Mr. Reynolds Waters. Owing to the success of the buffet dinner before our school dance in 1967, we repeated the effort on June 1st of this year. Other dances attended by the Prefects and senior girls have been held at The Hermitage, the Geelong College, and the Geelong Grammar School. After we attended a meet* concerning Commonwealth Youth Sunday, a march was again held through the streets of Geelong, followed by a service in Johnstone Park where we were addressed by Mr. Lloyd. After the service Miss Shaw and I were invited to afternoon tea at the City Hall with representatives from other schools and youth groups, to meet Mr Lloyd. Jean and I were invited to a number of Head Prefects' meetings in Melbourne but owing to transport difficulties we were only able to attend one. However we enjoyed meeting the girls from the various schools although their problems did not always concern us. The School Church service was again held at St. David's Church on the 13th October and the minister was the Reverend W. Fraser from Melbourne. Jean and I read the lessons. Page Seven

Earlier in the year all the Prefects were invited to a service at Sacred Heart, commemorating Ecumenical Week. We returned their hospitality by inviting them to a discussions' afternoon in Shaw House on the 23rd October. The Geelong Grammar School invited a number of girls to a meeting where we met Prefects from Clyde, The Hermitage, Geelong College and Geelong Grammar. At the meeting we discussed interschool activities and although it was hard to draw conclusions on any subject it was a most enjoyable afternoon. It has been a busy year for us all in 1968 and I know I would not have been able to survive without the wonderful support given to me by my fellow Prefects and Deputy Prefects. The seniors in the Boarding House have also been ever willing to help and I greatly appreciated their thoughtfulness. I know that I pass on the thanks to Miss Shaw, of all girls as her unfailing interest in us and the School is a wonderful support. Miss Henderson has again been willing to listen to us in the House and help us, and I also thank Miss Rentoul for all the assistance she has rendered. 1968 has been a very happy one for me although there are the usual little troubles, and I wish my successor and next year's office bearers a prosperous year. To all who are leaving, I wish you every success for the future and may Morongo be ever remembered in a happy atmosphere. Penelope Brian.

Council Notes

Membership: Mr. G. C. Notman of Skipton was appointed to the Council to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Mr. C. L. Hirst. Jubilee: Much thought and discussion has been devoted by the Council to the celebration in 1970 of the School's jubilee. An appropriate programme of functions will be arranged, and a history of the School will be published. Most functions will probably be held early in 1970, in February and March. Grounds: In view of the continual development of the property, the Council has created a grounds committee, headed by Mr. .1. S. Venters. Already much valuable work has been undertaken by the committee in supervising the restoration of the grounds to first-class condition after the drought. Buildings: The highlight of the year was undoubtedly the opening of Lucy Shaw House in February. The addition of this splendid boarding house, together with the provision of a biology laboratory and extra classrooms and the extension of the dining hall — all accomplished in the one year — give the Council a great deal of pride. The staff residence in Newtown was sold early in 1968, and the funds set aside for future staff accommodation. Some extensive improvements to existing buildings were effected, including the

Pate Eiaht

provision of gas heaters for the Junior School. The next project is to be the construction of a canteen near the present domestic science room. Staff

Excellent results in sport, public examinations, cultural activities and other facets of school life, and the obviously high morale amongst the students clearly point to the devoted and talented service offered to Morongo by Miss Shaw and her staff, to whom the highest praise must be given. The Council's task is made enjoyable and satisfying through the quality of this service, which permeates through the whole of the School.

Library Report

This year has again highlighted the important function of the Library in our school life, as it has provided valuable reference material and a quiet retreat for study purposes. Numerous new books have been added to the library shelves during the year, and at the beginning of second term we were most appreciative of the generous gift of two hundred used books from the Athenaeum Library in Melbourne. Towards the end of second term the Council increased the library subsidy to $800. I would like to mention here how much we are indebted to the Council who are always so willing to provide the necessary finance for the purchase of additional books. Once again the Library had a display of books on Hobbies' Day, and we thank all those who so generously donated books. With the help of Mrs. Clarke, members of the Library Committee re-organized the current affairs section of the Library early in first term. This section has proved to be of valuable assistance to all girls because it contains up-to-date information on a wide range of topics. On Thursday, 4th April, Mrs. Clarke, Pauline Day, Janet Cuthbertson and I travelled with some representatives from Geelong College to a meeting held in the Melbourne Library. At this meeting, students from various Melbourne schools spoke on a wide variety of books they had read, and a general discussion and question-time followed these short talks. On Friday, 7th June, members of the Library Committee attended a four schools evening held at Geelong College. The guest speaker was Judah Waten, author of " Alien Son," a book being studied this year by Leaving and Matriculation English classes. A representative from Sun Books was also present and he demonstrated the difficulties publishing firms mace when ordering books which will be studied by secondary schools during the next year. A book-covering competition begun after the exeat weekend in second term, created interest, particularly amongst the junior forms and the winners were — Senior: A. Brownsworth; Junior: J. Gunn; Sub-Junior: J. Hobbs. In conclusion I would like to thank the members of the Library Committee for their support and willing co-operation during the year; and we all express to Mrs. Clarke our appreciation for her enthusiastic and tireless work throughout the year. To next year's committee I wish a happy and as successful year as we have had this year. Jean Embling. Page Nine

Junior School and Nursery

Many of our thoughts and activities have revolved around the drought. It was impossible to consider holding the athletics during the first term owing to the dry, cracked state of the ground. The girls became very conscious of the water shortage and made every effort to conserve a commodity which had become so precious. Any dripping tap in-doors or out was promptly turned off by the smallest children. Despite the drought, the effectiveness of work was not hampered. This year the girls gained the benefit of permanency in staffing arrangements, and good progress commenced more quickly than usual. Modern methods adapted in this department continue to prove most effective. One never fails to be amazed at the progress of the tiny girls who learn to read so well and enjoy doing so. A further grant of $50 from the Junior Auxiliary for the purchase of library books was much appreciated. The new mathematics course is another means of raising the general standard of work to a considerable degree. Great enjoyment is continually gained from the various forms of Art. All girls, no matter in which direction their skills, find some form of Art where they can excel. The demand for entry to the Nursery becomes greater every year, and it has been impossible to find a place for all girls who wished to attend this year, the admission of boys must necessarily be curtailed. Enrolments at the Junior School were also higher than usual. We were pleased to welcome back Susan Wardle who had been attending school in England for twelve months and had travelled extensively as well. In March, the Annual Fete was held and as usual, the Junior School conducted a display of toys and dolls. Great interest was shown and a record amount of over $40 was added to the School Funds. The Sports' Day, after three postponements, due to inclement weather, was held on 15th October, and resulted in Karen Smith being Junior Champion with Kathryn Lloyd and Fiona Beach as runners-up, As well, there was the usual Hobbies' Day, and the end of year Break-up Function and Prize Giving. These functions cause much. excitement and interest every year. Each term the Nursery children have visited the Junior School in order that the girls may become acquainted with their new surroundings for next year. As the end of the year draws near, we would take this opportunity to offer the Season's Greetings to all.

French Report

Page Ten

Once again this year French has played a very important part at Morongo, although our activities have not been solely confined to the classroom. During second term the Matriculation French class was taken to Melbourne by Miss Botterill to see the play " Les Justes by Albert Camus which was performed for us by the Alliance Francaise

Association of Victoria. This proved to be most beneficial in our understanding and appreciation of the play. Our thanks are extended to Miss Botterill for making this trip possible. This year, for a change, the Annual Schools' French night was held in Geelong at. the Geelong College and Sacred Heart Convent on 4th October. Both Leaving and Matriculation classes attended and everyone thoroughly enjoyed the interesting and entertaining evening. The Alliance Francaise examinations were held at " The Hermitage this year, and as usual Morongo was very well represented by many enthusiastic girls. We are also pleased to note that Morongo gained the most prizes and commendations — thirty-one in all. We realize that much of the credit should go to both Miss Botterill and Miss Evans whom we congratulate on their thorough preparation of the participants, and their unfailing assistance. Throughout the year students from Intermediate, Leaving and Matriculation have been listening to radio broadcasts of dictation and aural comprehension, finding them most helpful. For all girls doing French next year I would like to point out that there is an extensive record library of the prescribed texts and poetry, and we hope that these will be used to their advantage. There are also several tapes containing dictations, aural comprehensions and French songs which are available to those who wish to use them — for both interest and pleasure. In closing I would like to thank Miss Evans and Miss Botterill for their continual encouragement and help throughout the year. Maintenant, a tout le monde, Bonnes Vacances! Rennie Potter.

P.F.A. Report

Due to the constant guidance and inspiration of our Deaconess, Miss M. Wilson, this year has been an active one for the members of the Morongo P.F.A. The following office-bearers were elected for 1968: President, Barbara Selman, Vice-President, Sue Berlyn, Secretary, Edith Prenter: Treasurer, Frances Spry. Members of the Committee: Jane Beckmann, Penelope Brian, Keryn Cameron, Deidre Hookings, Gillian Horne, Gwyn MacDougal, Elspeth Maconachie, Rennie Potter and Robyn Sisson. Because of the increased membership this year, the P.F.A. has been divided into a Junior Group comprising third and fourth forms and a Senior Group comprising fifth and sixth forms. Our Community Service during 1968 has been centred around Grace McKellar House and Hospital for the Aged. Regular visits at fortnightly intervals have been made by members of both groups and due to the contributions of many members, two rugs and some used articles have been provided for the old folks' use. It has been decided that financial assistance is of greater benefit to the Missionaries than mission boxes, so the usual request for articles for mission boxes was not made. Page Eleven

Resulting from our Committee meetings with the College Committee, we were able to organize a " Rip Trip ", on Sunday, 5th May, followed by a barbecue at Queenscliff. Also a combined Tea and Badge Presentation with The Geelong College P.F.A. held in the Gertrude Pratt Hall on 9th June. The Reverend Keith Kirby, the Chaplain of the Geelong Hospital and Gaol gave the address, then thirty-four girls received badges. The difficulty of procurring suitable accommodation for a weekend camp resulted in the substitution of a one-day combined conference with the College boys at Avalon Community, Corio. The studies were prepared and lead by the Reverend J. Martin and Deaconess M. Wilson, the theme being " Who Am I?"

•

We have had a wide range of interesting speakers throughout the year, including Miss E. Williams, showing slides of Wales, Mr. G. Gration, representative from The British and Foreign Bible Society showing a film on Africa; Mr. I. Prenter, slides and souvenirs of the New Hebrides; Miss S. Fowler, speaking on " Life at Melbourne University " and Miss J. Philip showing slides and souvenirs of Thailand. Among other activities we have enjoyed are acting mimes and charades, making Boat Race and School Ribbons, debating with the co-operation of members of staff, namely Miss J. Philip, Miss E. Williams and Miss I. Winzor and an open discussion on the " Has Beens ". The profits made from the sale of novelty worms and the regular collection of newspapers, have enabled us to continue a scholarship for a Korean student and contribute to the Burnside Camp Building Fund. In conclusion we would like to thank Miss Shaw, Miss J. Rentoul and the kitchen staff for their continued support and assistance throughout the year, without which many of our activities would have been impossible. Barbara Selman and Edith Prenter.

Junior P.F.A.

This year for the first time a Junior P.F.A. was formed. Our Committee was elected late in first term and the girls were — President, Deborah Spence; Vice-President, Heather McKewan; Secretary, Thais Home; Treasurer, Catherine Graham and Committee, Janet Coutts, Margaret Crossman, Prudence Lamont and Susan Menzies. During the year, in our meetings, we have been entertained by slides which Jennifer Davies showed us of her parents' trip abroad, a talk by Matron Waddley from the Bethany Babies' Home, a talk by Mr. Leon Gleeson from the Good Neighbour Council about problems facing migrants when first arriving in Australia and a talk by Policewoman Browne about juvenile offenders. There have also been several Committee meetings with the Geelong College boys to plan for the Junior P.F.A. Non-residential Day Camp which took place on the 11th August at " Dariwell," the property of Mr. and Mrs. Young of Moorabool. The day was most enjoyable and afterwards a combined committee meeting was held to evaluate the outing.

Page Twelve

On several Saturday afternoons groups of girls visited the Bethany Babies' Home and observed how the children in the home were cared for. They had the opportunity to play with the children and feed them. Girls have made toys for the babies as well as knitting a rug for the people of Grace McKellar. On Sunday 3rd November a competition was held in the Art Room to identify the staff members or Matriculation girls from photographs of them as infants. This proved very successful as a fund raising effort. Deborah Spence.

The Art Report

This year, more than ever before, there has been extremely varied, and, at times, intense activity in the Art Department. Prior to Miss Boddy's appointment three years ago it had been the common practice of art students to use 16 in. x 23 in. cartridge paper for all art work. This year every girl has painted on canvas with oils or the new acrylic paints, often on a large scale, providing wonderful, new scope. There also have been some changes in the Senior Art Room procedure. During first term the syllabus was rapidly commenced with work such as drawing, design, techniques and still-life. During second term the syllabus was considerably relaxed and Miss Boddy encouraged girls to choose their own activities ranging from pottery, silk-screening, oil-painting, lithography, out-door sketching, sculpture and lino-cuts. Each girl thought of her own theme and worked out her own application — this system seems to work well as the student learns to demand answers to her problems as they arise and sets her own pace, working within a range of personal ideas. This term Leaving and Matriculation students have concentrated on compiling their examination folios which must consist of six pieces of art work. The Examiners' Report for last year mentioned that all too often the six were similar in medium and style. Due to Miss Boddy's keen interest in different art media this does not apply to the work from Morongo which has been covering an increasingly wider field. 1968 visits to galleries by Intermediate, Leaving and Matriculation have been to the Crossley Gallery of Primitive Art, the South Yarra Galleries, several to Coombe Down and, one evening, to the new National Gallery, which greatly impressed the majority of girls. During first and second term Intermediate and Leaving girls were taken on outdoor sketching excursions to the wine cellars in Geelong, Queen's Park, Batesford and the Barrabool Hills. Early in second term we were very pleased when it was agreed that a small room, along from the art room, could be used as a sculpture and pottery-making area, for space has become quite a problem. A quantity of stone was obtained from the cement quarry for sculptures and, with Miss Shaw's permission, some of these are displayed in the courtyards of Shaw House. A number of sculptures and other art work was entered in the Secondary Schools' Exhibition at the Geelong Gallery. On Sunday, 16th June, fifteen girls with Miss Boddy and Miss Philip attended an Art Students' and Teachers' Workshop, held at Geelong GramPage Thirteen

mar School and since then Matriculation students have been inv:ted to use the facilities there on Saturday afternoons, which is of much benefit, though we are grateful for our own acquisition of five silkscreens and a lithographic press at the beginning of second term. During second term life classes were held on Wednesday nights at Geelong Grammar School. I feel these contributed an important part to our senior study for practical art. Towards the end of last term there was a clean up in the art room with a group of volunteers painting the interior on a Saturday afternoon. New display boards in black were part of the renovations. Recently, the Mural on the outside wall, once depicting " Fun in the Park ", has become a black and white action painting, executed by the Intermediate A girls, now in keeping with the new ' decor '. The most significant development in the art life of the younger girls is the change from painting in their form rooms to having their own art room, thus providing new freedom which can be seen in their work — some of which is very inspiring and quite mature. Mobiles have been particularly popular with the girls and Miss Philip has also introduced these girls to various other media, including mosaics. Miss Philip, our History of Art teacher, showed two feature films on the lives of Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci. At this stage, on behalf of the art students, I thank both Miss Philip and Miss Boddy very sincerely for their unending interest and help to us all and the art life of Morongo. Very best wishes for the future are extended to Miss Boddy who is leaving this year. A final word to those girls who will be doing art next year. Aim high from the first day and if you don't let your enthusiasm wane you will reach your ambition. And please do take advantage of the extremely relevant collection of books in the History of Art section in the Library. Ann Brownsworth.

Dressmaking Report

There were many girls who did dressmaking for Intermediate subjects and Leaving Certificates, and garments made throughout the year were winter wear, lingerie and afternoon frocks. This year, evening frocks have not been as popular as in previous years. As well as sewing, there were embroidered articles and a file to complete. Hobbies' Day was on 5th November and a variety of attractive garments was modelled. Throughout the year, Dressmaking students have been on excursions to Melbourne, to see a Tapestry display, to a Mannequin Parade at the West Technical School, Geelong, and also at the All Saints' Church Hall we saw a display of tapestries and embroidered articles. Finally I would like to thank, on behalf of the Dressmaking students, Mrs. Webb and Miss Miller for all the time and help they have given throughout the year. Christina Malley.

Shakespeare Day

Shakespeare Day comes but once a year and the 1968 performances were the 43rd held in Morongo. This year, 6 plays were featured together with one about Shakespeare. Leaving P presented 2 scenes from " Richard II." The first was the Garden scene with Barbara Bayliss in the leading role as Richard's Queen, and Suzanne Aylward as the gardener. The other scene, set around the York family had Gwyn MacDougal, Deborah Carew, Lyn Dorrington. and Heather Hunt in the leading roles. Leaving A contributed a light-hearted scene from " A Midsummer Night's Dream." Before Theseus (Pamela Ingpen) and his new bride Hippolyta (Jennifer Nelson) a group of rustics performs their idea of a dramatic play. The principal actors were Pyramus (Vicki Smith) Thisbe (Jennifer Miller), Quince (Jennifer Warland ), Wall (Diedre Hookings), Moonshine ( Anne Kefford ) and the Lion was Judith Cuthbertson. Leaving G staged a light-hearted romance set in a colourfully painted forest from " As You Like It ". The cast included Kaye Dickson as Orlando, Christina Matley as Rosalind, Anne McWattie, Julie Oman, Joanne Herd and Tina Apted. Intermediate L featured 2 scenes from " Macbeth ", in the first between Catherine Graham and Faye Donnan as Lord and Lady Macbeth, and in the second, more frightening sleep-walking scene with Faye Donnan supported by Elizabeth Davidson and Judith Clutterbuck. Instead of a play by Shakespeare, Intermediate Y presented " The Rehearsal ", a play about Shakespeare by Maurice Baring. Set in the Globe Theatre 1606, a rehearsal of " Macbeth " was in progress, the cast being: Producer, Susan Lowing; Stage-Manager, Sally Mansfield; Mr. Burbage, Robyn McRae; Lady Macbeth, Sunni Roydhouse and a very minor part, that of Shakespeare played by Jan Waters. Intermediate X introduced us to " The Merchant of Venice " with Bassanio (Roslyn Lee), Gratiano (Robyn Bellwood and Antonio (Susan Adams) being tricked by Portia (Deborah Collins) and Nerissa (Anne Greenhill). As a finale, Matriculation presented scenes from " The Taming of the Shrew ". Judith Lockhart was well cast as Petruchio the tamer and Glenda Notman as Katharina the shrew. Katharina displayed her violent temper in attacking her sister Bianca (Katherine Pearcy), however, to the surprise of their father Baptista (Elizabeth McLeod). Petruchio is prepared to marry Katharina for her dowry and then proceeds to tame her in his own manner. Petruchio's servants deserve a special mention as their appearance and ineptitude were high-lights in a very thought provoking, well presented play. As always, Shakespeare Day was enjoyed by all but the success is partly measured by the gain of the girls actually acting and behind the scenes. The producer of any play has a demanding task and Miss Williams, Miss Winzor and Mrs. Pearcy guided their respective productions to successful stagings; both audience and participants express their gratitude.

Owing to the success of the Buffet Dinner before the Dance last year we decided to do the same again and were equally pleased with the result. The dining room extension prevented overcrowding around the tables which were decorated with long, thin candles in apple blossom and gold sprayed ivy. The Official Party was served dinner by the Intermediate girls. The party included Miss Shaw, Mr. and Mrs. Thwaites, Miss Sutherland, Miss Rentoul, Mr. McNeill, and Mr. and Mrs. Brian. The prefects from the Hermitage and Chanel College also attended, as well as the prefects and boys from the Geelong College and Geelong Grammar School. This year our decoration theme was Holland and we had three large comic dairy cows, dancing through a tulip field, displayed on the main wall of the Hall. On the opposite side there were three drink stands which were decorated as Dutch windmills with huge orange sails. Despite the collapse of one of the windmills the decorations proved to be successful especially when they were highlighted by dangling bunches of blue and white balloons. The girls helping with the drinks were dressed in Dutch costume. We hired the " Portrait " as our band for the evening. Most people seemed extremely pleased with the evening and I think its success was due to the amount of work and thought which went into its preparation. I extend the thanks of the prefects to Miss Rentoul, for all her assistance, and to the kitchen staff for the extra work they did. My thanks also go to all the senior girls who so willingly helped to make the evening the success it was. Penelope Brian.

Tropical Trek

THE SCHOOL TRIP TO QUEENSLAND, SEPTEMBER 1968 Brisbane greeted us with a grey face on Thursday, 29th August, and amid clanking wire-cage lifts, gilt-sprayed bedsteads, and draughty communal bathrooms . . . . we, (28 students and 2 teachers), spent our first night in an edifying establishment of the Queensland Temperance League! Next morning, in typical tourist tradition, we donned cameras, sunglasses and " bonnets " and swarmed onto our coach much to the initial bewilderment of the 6 civilian passengers and our coach captain. 500 miles of travelling north revealed to us Cook's Glasshouse Mountains, pineapple plantations, Bundaberg, bananas, the Tropic of Capricorn, Rockhampton and National Servicemen! A picnic at Lotus Creek broke the monotony of the " Horror Stretch " — 240 miles of arid forest, scrub and Brahman cattle — to Mackay. There we were regaled in the glow of barbecue fires, with renowned Queensland steaks, " French " chefs and impromptu entertainment at Paradise Lodge! Ea/1y Monday morning we boarded the " Mirimar II " on which we cruised through the pellucid aqua depths of the Whitsunday Passage to Hayman Island. On this idyllic haven we indulged in a sumpt-

Page Sixteen

uous smorgasbord, took advantage of the hotel pool or walked across white sands to meet the tide. Before leaving Bowen the next morning we were shown the town and surrounding district by one of the Golden Girls. En route to Townsville, we stopped at the " Rock Shop " in Ayr where we purchased trinkets and despatched coconuts by mail to Victoria. The luxurious Robert Towns Motel was our base for trips to Magnetic Island and after tea to the Castle Hill lookout. Lush tropical rain forests and paw paw plantations were characteristic of the landscape around Tully on our way to Cairns the following clay. Thursday was highlighted by a rough trip to Green Island and the chance to view the coral and the vividly coloured fish of the Great Barrier Reef. That night we inspected a sugar mill outside Cairns which was of particular interest having seen so many thousands of acres of sugar cane crops in their different stages of development. As we crossed the tarmac at dawn, light rain was falling, reflecting our low spirits at leaving Queensland after eight days of beautiful sunshine. We hope Miss Henderson and Miss Gibson enjoyed the trip as much as we all did and we are most appreciative of their taking us. Elizabeth Grant, Rennie Potter, Glenda Notman, and Judith Matheson.

Forum Report

Every Monday at lunch-time, Miss Shaw and Miss Sutherland presided over forum meetings at which the prefects, house-captains, house-sport-captains and form captains from Intermediate, Leaving and Matriculation attended. Throughout the year we discussed School activities and recorded weekly debits and credits. By means of these meetings we were able to offer suggestions concerning the awarding of sport symbols for athletics and swimming which in future will be embroidered on the blazer pocket as ATHS and AQUA. The ground tidiness system caused the most comment during the year, and we hope that next year all girls will co-operate and show a greater pride in their surroundin t,as• We would all like to thank Miss Shaw and Miss Sutherland for the keen interest they have shown and the valuable guidance they have given at these meetings throughout the year. Jean Embling.

Music Report

Despite the fact that there was no combined production by the choirs of Morongo and the Geelong College this year, there has been a great deal of musical activity within the School. The highlight of the year was the Inter-House Music Competitions, held at the beginning of second term after being postponed owing to the absence of Miss Habersberger. The five choirs and the soloists, under the direction of the House Captains and other senior girls, worked extremely hard in preparation for the competitions Page Seventeen

and their efforts were rewarded by the small differences between the total points gained by each house. Congratulations go to Lawson for its first win, and to Venters for winning the choral section. We thank Miss Habersberger for her efficient organization, and Mr. Newnham of the Geelong College for accepting once more the difficult task of adjudicating. It is hoped that everyone took note of Mr. Newnharn's criticism and that next year we will see more enthusiasm and co-operation from the girls who did not participate this year, as well as some originality in the choice of songs. For the first time, a concert including both musical and dramatic items was held at the end of second term, once in the afternoon for the School and again in the evening for parents and friends. It was a great success owing to the variety of the programme and the high standard. The musical items were two short pieces by the orchestra, two songs by the junior choir, folk-singing, a piano solo, two piano duets, four songs by the senior choir, four tunes by the recorder group and a classical guitar solo. The dramatic items were also varied, including group-recitation, solo verse-speaking and an impressive scene from " Macbeth " acted by two Intermediate girls. For their help in organizing the concert, and all the time they put into preparing for it, we thank Miss Habersberger and Mrs. Deller as well as all the girls who took part. The annual Four Schools' Night, held this year at the Geelong College, was also successful. The Senior Choir sang four songs — " To Music " and " The Trout " (Schubert), " A Regular Royal Queen " (Gilbert and Sullivan) and "Fanfare " (M. Shaw). Girls from the choir then showed their versatility by singing some folksongs, and two girls played a piano duet. At the School Church Service, the Senior Choir sang the introit, " God Be In My Head," and the Twenty-third Psalm to the tune Brother James' Air. The combined junior and senior choirs will sing two songs on Speech Night — " Past Three O'Clock, " an old English carol, and " Where the Gentle Avon Flows," an Elizabethan serenade. The School will sing two Australian carols. As usual, day-girls and boarders have attended the Celebrity Concerts held at the Plaza Theatre. The Melbourne Symphony Orchestra has played twice, conducted by Willem van Otterloo and Ladislav Slovak, and there has been an interesting variety of soloists: the Hungarian pianist Annie Fischer, the Polish pianist Andre Tchaikowsky, the Mezzo-Soprano Janet Baker and the Australian violinist Beryl Kimber. First and second form girls have also been taken to the A.B.C. Schools' Orchestral Concerts presented by the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. We have had a small but enthusiastic orchestra this year, under the direction of Miss Habersberger and consisting of two flutes, two violins, two clarinets and a 'cello. It has played at the Music Competitions and the concert. We hope to have new members in the orchestra next year, especially as several of the present members will have left school, so girls are encouraged to learn an instrument other than the piano. Music-making in a group can be enjoyable and is very rewarding. Newcomers to the music-staff this year were Miss Habersberger and Miss Misso, a piano-teacher who replaced Miss Hair at the beginning of second term. We hope they are both enjoying teaching a t Page Eighteen

Morongo and we thank them both, and the rest of the music teachers, for all the time and effort they have contributed to the music of the School this year. We also hope there will be even more enthusiasm shown for music next year, and we wish all music students of this year and the future a great deal of success. Christine Duncan.

Church Notes

Church services began for the boarding mistresses and girls at St. David's, on Sunday, 11th February. The following week all Anglican girls began attending the service at St. John's Anglican Church, Geelong West. " The Story of the Cross " was again sung on Palm Sunday and the boarders took their usual part. This year Commonwealth Youth Sunday on May 5th was celebrated by a Street March, by all Secondary Schools and Clubs in Geelong. A service at Johnstone Park at which the Hon. Geoffrey Lloyd gave the address, followed the March, at which Morongo was represented by the Intermediate, Leaving and Matriculation Girls. On Sunday, 28th July, the following girls were received into full membership of the Church by the Reverend Reynolds Waters: Heather Barber, Marie Dykes, Jennifer Forster, Anne Harrison, Thais Horne, Kaye Krepp, Susan Lowing, Susan Menzies, Julianne Turnbull and Gaye Witcombe. The service of Confirmation took place at the evening service at St. David's and for the first time Miss Shaw and Mr. P. N. Thwaites took part in the service, by taking the Scripture Readings. Our Annual School Service on Sunday, 13th October was conducted by our Chaplain the Reverend Reynolds Waters while the Reverend W. A. Fraser gave us the Address on " Our Mixed Heritage ". The Head Prefect and Deputy Head Prefect took the Bible Readings and the Junior and Senior Choirs rendered the Anthem and led the singing. Our Chaplain has shown continual interest in our School, as seen by his weekly visits to the School on Thursday mornings, when he conducts our Morning Prayers and takes Scripture Classes with the Senior Forms. Barbara Selman.

Farewell to Cookie

Miss Slaven left Morongo in June this year after twenty-five years during which she worked very hard to feed the starving multitudes with such delicacies as " giraffe " meat, " Yarra mud and dandruff ", as well as her widely renowned puffballs. Even though spare toast was strictly rationed and inclusion on the excused list " a rare privilege, Cookie has obviously succeeded in doing a wonderful job keeping so many hungry girls healthy. Everyone was sad to see her leave and the girls will always remember Cookie as an important part of their schooldays. We hope Miss Slaven is enjoying her retirement and has many happy memories of Morongo. Elizabeth Grant. Page Nineteen

Sports Report

A large section of school activities this year has been taken up by sport, and the enthusiasm of many, has resulted in generally high standards in all fields. We welcomed Miss Heindorff this year as our new junior sports mistress. The Boarders again attended early morning training before the Swimming Sports which were held at the Norlane Pool on Friday, 8th March, four days after the heats. The standard of diving at the sports this year was much higher as Miss Rainsford put in a lot of work to train a number of girls in some of the harder dives, making this event even more interesting. The Ena Miller Shield was won by Ardens, and our congratulations go to Judith Downey and her house for their win. Venters House is also to be congratulated on gaining second place, especially as the house is only new this year. The Geelong All Schools' Swimming Sports were held on Saturday, 9th March, and our girls swam well to give us third place overall, behind the Hermitage and Norlane teams. The All Schools' Swimming Sports in Melbourne was re-introduced this year and organized by P.L.C. We had a good team to take up to the Olympic Pool on March 23rd, as well as the largest, happiest and loudest group of spectators — mostly boarders! The enthusiasm was tremendous, and although we did not match the Melbourne schools in swimming strength, with the challenge of this year's results, we are sure to do better in future years. Morongo finished fourth out of the five schools. Association baseball and tennis matches were played throughout the term and the Senior A baseball team won their premiership, not losing one game, which is the first time this has been achieved in many years. Social matches have been played against: Geelong College, Teachers' College, St. Margaret's, and also Clyde in 3rd term. Sport in the Boarding House was again efficiently organized by the Leaving girls, who are the sports captains of the respective houses, and the improvement in play noticed last year is still apparent and increasing, but there is still the minority who seem to have very little house spirit. Two new houses, Pettitt and Hirst have been formed this year, to make six in all, to cope with the large numbers. Basketball and hockey practices began immediately after our return in second term, association matches were played over a period, 15th June to 20th July, and social matches with Sacred Heart, Clyde, Toorak College, Teachers' College and Clonard, gave us a very full season this year. We congratulate the Senior B, Junior A and Junior B basketball teams for winning their premierships. A weekend was also spent at Alexandra College in Hamilton on 21st-22nd September, when we played hockey (won), and basketball (lost). The Junior State Hockey trials were followed closely by many in second term, when four of our girls reached the final selection trials. Barbara Symes was our only representative in the team which was finally chosen, but we congratulate them all on their fine efforts. Inter-form matches were greatly enjoyed by all who took part, and the successful forms were Leaving P who won the senior basketball and 2Y the junior basketball. Hockey matches were unfinished owing to the weather.

Page Twenty

Basketball, hockey and table tennis were all included in inter-house sport during the term. Harris won the senior hockey and basketball, junior table tennis and sub-junior basketball, Lawson the junior hockey and basketball and Roslyn the senior table tennis. On the last Saturday of second term, the 17th August, the first Boarders' " Mini-Aths " was held and was an overwhelming e success, as all the Boarders and Boarding Staff joined in. hope this day will become an annual event, and congratulations to David for their win and to Pettitt who received the covetted " Wooden Spoon "! Swimming (AQUA) and Athletics (ATHS) symbols were introduced this year and will be awarded in the same way as other symbols. Also dates will be added to house colours to show how many times a girl has been awarded these. School colours were awarded this year to: Lyn Batty, Joanne Heard, Jan Spokes and Frances Spry. Owing to the bad state of the ovals the Athletic Sports were postponed in both first and second terms and were finally held on Saturday, 19th October. The heats were held at various times — between thunder storms — as were house and marching practices. The new public address system installed on the top oval was the ideal solution for the marching, as every house can now hear the music. Congratulations again this year to Harris on winning the Margaret Shannon Cup, with Roslyn coming a very close second. The field events showed a remarkable improvement this year which is very pleasing and the marching was as spectacular as ever. A senior and junior cross country was a new event in the programme and aroused much interest from the spectators. Inter-house baseball and tennis matches and the tennis Championships are yet to be finished this term. Gym work has also been started in preparation for Hobbies' Day. Boarders have continued to attend the Geelong Golf Club for lessons this year, squash lessons have been made available for both day-girls and boarders who attend lessons in Geelong every Saturday morning, and the fencing girls continue to improve under Mr Fadgyas' coaching every Monday evening. We hope that more girls will participate in these three sports next year. All the team girls know what a keen interest Miss Shaw shows in all our matches, and in all our sporting activities generally. I would like to take this opportunity td thank her very much on behalf of all the girls and to say how much we appreciate her presence and support. Our thanks also go to the Council for all the new equipment (basketball courts, trampoline mat, baseball gloves and bats, javelins, gym mats, table tennis and hockey equipment and the new P.A. system), they have most generously provided for the School and to Miss Rentoul and the Boarders for their valuable help when we have visiting teams. Many people contribute to the smooth running of all the sporting activities and we all appreciate what the junior and senior team captains, the house officials, and especially the sports captains, have done this year. We also thank the staff who have officiated at both the athletic and swimming sports and given up their time for our pleasure. Page Twenty-One

In particular I would like to thank Miss Rainsford and Miss Heindorff who have been so patient in both coaching and encouragement in all fields of sport throughout the year. We are sorry to see Miss Rainford leaving at the end of this year, for in the three years she has been here, her influence on sport at Morongo has brought wider interests and enthusiasm to the girls and built up the general standard of sport to a very high level. We all thank her, and I wish her the best of luck for the future, and to those returning, a prosperous and very happy year in 1969. And remember — " a person who never makes mistakes, never makes anything ", so learn by your mistakes, but NEVER make the same mistake twice. Best of luck. Frances Spry.

Swimming Report

The Annual Swimming Sports were held at the Norlane Pool on 8th March, the heats being held the previous Monday. The swimming was of a very high standard, and congratulations go to Ardens who won the Ena Miller Shield with a total of 245 points, from Venters, 200 points; Lawson, 199 points; Roslyn, 137 points and Harris, 87 points. The individual champions and runners-up were: Senior, Judith Menzies; runner-up, Heather Roydhouse; Intermediate, Anne Hucker; runner-up, Lyn Crellin. Junior, Marilyn Ford; runner-up, Meredith Cooper. Sub-junior, Heather Taylor; runnerup, Virginia Wilson. This year it was decided to hold a Boarding House relay event, and this was won by Hirst. We would like to thank all members of staff who helped to run the sports so smoothly and we would also like to thank the staff of the Norlane Pool for their constant co-operation with our late sport during the term and with our Sports. Morongo was again represented at the Geelong All Schools' Swimming Championships at Kardinia Pool on 9th March, though not fully, owing to matches being held on the same day. However we managed to come third, with The Hermitage winning the Batten Aggregate Shield. This year for the first time a Swimming Carnival was held at the Olympic Pool on 23rd March between the five schools in our Association. Our congratulations go to M.C.E.G.G.S. on their victory, followed by M.L.C., P.L.C.. Morongo and The Hermitage. An extremely high standard of swimming was displayed. Five bus-loads of Morongo girls armed with a mascot and a war-cry were unequalled in their enthusiastic support of their Team. All the girls enjoyed the competition very much and we extend our thanks to the staff of P.L.C. who organized the day so successfully. Reflecting the increased amount of interest in and the growing importance of swimming in our sporting lives, it was decided this year to award swimming symbols. These were awarded to Judith Menzies. Prior to the swimming competitions Miss Rainsford and Miss Heindorff took girls down to Eastern Beach before school to train. This was greatly appreciated and we would like to thank them both very much for their guidance throughout the season. Judith Menzies.

Athletics Report

This year, instead of spending first term preparing for our annual athletic sports, we had to watch the drought ruin our oval. In view of these conditions, the sports were postponed until second term but unfortunately we found it necessary to wait all second term for the oval to recover. However, we were not disheartened, and we decided that Saturday the 19th October was to be the day. Third term was rather wet, but we managed to arrange a fine day for the sports. The shot put, the javelin, baseball and discus throws, the long jump and the high jump were all successfully contested on the morning of the 19th of October, while the remainder of the programme, the track events, the team games and the marching, took place in the afternoon. The highlight of the day, apart from a number of record breaking individual performances, was perhaps the cross country race. This was the first year such an event had been included in the programme and our congratulations go to Barbara Symes and Anne Chirnside for winning the senior and junior events respectively. The house marching was, as usual, an impressive spectacle for the many spectators: congratulations to Venters House, the victors in this field. The final results of the sports were: Harris, 367 points; Roslyn, 351 points; Lawson, 288 points; Venters, 272 points; Ardens, 125 points. The individual champions were: Sub-junior, V. Hunter (Lawson) ; runners-up, E. Whiteside (Harris) and L. Anderson (Roslyn) ; Junior, J. Coutts (Ardens) ; runner-up, A. Chirnside (Lawson) ; Intermediate, M. Walter (Harris) ; runner-up, B. Johnson (Venters) ; Senior, J. Spokes (Harris) ; runner-up, J. Heard (Roslyn). Athletic symbols have been awarded to Penelope Brian, Joanne Heard, Jan Spokes, Robyn Woodburn, Frances Spry and Myrna Walter. The Junior School Sports also had to vie with the elements but they were eventually held in fine weather on Tuesday the 15th of October. Venters were the final winners with Harris coming second. Congratulations to K. Smith, the winner of the Junior School Athletic Championship. Finally our thanks go to all those concerned with the organization and running of the sports and especially to Miss Rainsford and Miss Heindorff for their invaluable assistance and support, without which the sports could not have been the success they were.

Baseball Report

With six out of nine members of the Senior A team returning this year, we had a solid basis on which to build a very strong team. The girls selected for the Senior A were: Jane Beckmann (pitcher), Jan Spokes (catcher), Lesley Malpas (1st base), Frances Spry (2nd base), Heather McKewan (3rd base), Kaye Dickson (short stop), Robyn Woodburn (L. Field), Penelope Rhodes (C. Field), and Barbara Selman (R. Field). This team was very enthusiastic, and each girl was an invaluable part of a systematic and highly skilled team. Strong team spirit and the understanding between Page Twenty-Three

the players was tremendous, and with the sound coaching from Miss Rainsford, we were undefeated in the association, so gaining the premiership. Congratulations to the Senior A team, and to all the other teams who also played consistently and enthusiastically. The overall standard of baseball shows an impressive improvement, and an encouraging Junior A team won most of its matches during the season. Social matches in first term were played against Teachers' College and St. Margaret's, and on 28th September we played Clyde, this match being the only one the Senior A team lost: the score was 15-13. Also before the first matches of the season, ten seniors played softball for Teachers' College at Stead Park, which was instructive although rather hilarious at times. It was extremely difficult to award baseball symbols at the end of the term, as every girl in the team played exceptionally well, but the girls finally chosen were: Kaye Dickson and Frances Spry (reaward). A large part of our success this year is due to the hard work and encouragement of Miss Rainsford, and we all thank her very much for all the time and guidance she has given us. To the girls returning, keep the standard high and best of luck for the 1969 season. Frances Spry.

Hockey Report

Page Twenty-Four

This year quite a pleasing number of girls tried for the hockey teams, although a little more enthusiasm and a marked improvement in punctuality would go a long way in improving the general standard of play. The Senior A team chosen this year was: Heather Barber, Christa Birdsey, Keryn Cameron, Anne Clutterbuck, Judith Cuthbertson, Pauline Day, Edith Prenter, Penelope Rhodes, Barbara Selman, Frances Spry and Barbara Symes. Apart from the usual Association matches, we played a number of social games throughout the season. These were played against Toorak College, Teachers' College and Clyde, the highlight of the season being the trip to Alexandra College, Hamilton, on the weekend of 21st September. This weekend was a great success and all the girls thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Our hockey team won its match 4-1, although the score gives no indication of how evenly we were actually matched. Glenda Mitchell played a brilliant game as goalie, and was certainly our best player on the field. Also played at the end of second term, was a rather damp but amusing match between the staff and Senior A. The result, of course, was a draw! A large number of girls sat for the hockey examination this year, with a few gaining " A " passes. All the juniors sat the examination, and by some of their results, many now realise that there is much more to hockey than just hitting a ball; but time and experience, if you are willing to learn, will get you to the top in the game. This year proved to have some good individual players as Pauline Day, Penelope Rhodes, Frances Spry and Barbara Symes were all chosen to attend the final selection of the Junior State Hockey Team. Barbara was the successful player chosen for the team and was also named Victorian captain.

Inter-form matches during second term were unfinished owing to bad weather, but we congratulate Harris for their success in the inter-house senior hockey and Lawson for winning the Junior section. For general helpfulness and co-operation, combined with a high standard of play and interest in other teams, the following girls were awarded hockey symbols: Pauline Day (re-award), Frances Spry and Barbara Symes. Congratulations to these girls and their team for their fine performances and also to all the other teams who played so well throughout the season, although no team managed a premiership. Finally, I would like to thank Miss Heindorff for her help and .guidance in the practices and matches and to wish her and those girls returning the best of luck for 1969. Look, listen, learn and lend a hand; with patience it will bring big improvements. Frances Spry.

Tennis Report

Although the beginning of the year was not successful for the Senior " A " team, as the season progressed the ability and the unity of the team improved. There were few changes in this year's Senior " A " team as so many from last year returned. Once again the Senior " B " team was most successful in winning all their Association matches. The Junior " A " and " B " teams were not so lucky, but they showed improvement as they gained experience. Throughout the year social matches were played against Clyde, St. Margaret's, Geelong Teachers' College and The Geelong College. During third term a tournament was held between Morongo and Geelong College. This year tennis symbols were awarded to Judith Downey and Lyn Batty. As usual great interest and enthusiasm has been shown in the various tennis championships which are now well under way. On behalf of the tennis teams and all girls interested in tennis, I would like to thank Mr. Sleeman for the invaluable assistance he has rendered during the year. We are most grateful to Miss Heindorff and hope that all girls will, in the future, show their appreciation, as we have tried this year, in giving her our courteous attention and support. I am certain that 1969 will be a happy and successful year for all tennis teams, with so many capable players returning. In closing I would like to thank all the girls who have given me so much help and made my task a pleasure. Lyn Batty.

Basketball Report

This year basketball practices began much earlier than usual, and as there were six girls back from last year's Senior " A " team there was only one change. Although we were not as successful as we had hoped, I am sure that every girl played as consistently and as well as she could. I am very pleased to say that the Senior " B ", Junior " A " and Junior " B " teams were undefeated, thus proving how many keen and able young players we have. The two new basketball courts have helped play considerably. Social matches were played against Alexandra College, Clyde, Clonard, Sacred Heart, Teachers' College and Toorak College. Page Twenty-Five

Inter-form and inter-house matches were played during second term. Congratulations go to Harris who won both the Senior and SubJunior matches and to Lawson who won the Junior section. In the inter-form matches, Leaving P, Intermediate L and 2Y won their respective sections. Basketball symbols for this season were awarded to Lyn Batty, Deidre Hookings and Jan Spokes and re-awarded to Joanne Heard. The prospects for next year's teams are very bright with so many enthusiastic young players returning. If the team spirit and team work shown in all teams this year are carried on, Morongo will win many premierships in 1969. On behalf of all the basketball teams I would like to express my gratitude to Miss Rainsford for her continual interest and encouragement throughout the season, and wish her luck for next year. I am sure that the teams will show their appreciation for all she has done by winning all their matches in 1969. To those girls returning I say " never ever stop trying and remember, determination wins the game ". Lyn Batty.

Fencing Report

1968 has proved to be a most successful year showing increasing interest in this activity with the enrolment of six enthusiastic beginners — Jennifer Heard, Robyn Scott, Edwina Brien, Robyn Johnson, Ethelwy-n Barber and Sue Berlyn who, together with the girls from the previous year — Jeanette Johnson, Deborah Spence, Rhonda Koschade and Ruth Koschade bring the fencing class number to 10. Lessons begin at 5.45 p.m. every Monday evening under the expert coaching of Mr. Fadgyas, a former Olympic champion. Beginners and advanced groups alternate their lessons every week. This year, only one competition was entered — the Victorian Golden Foil Tournament, in which Rhonda Koschade reached the finals. We hope that next year, an even greater interest and enthusiasm for the sport will be shown and that Mr. Fadgyas, whom we all sincerely thank for his encouragement and patience with us will be able to find in his next year's pupils the same enthusiasm for this gratifying and challenging sport. S. Berlyn and E. Barber.

Barbara Symes

This year has been a very special one for Barbara, for she was selected as captain of the Junior Victorian Hockey Team. She has playe4 in the State team for the last three years but this year she captained them to victory at the Carnival in Sydney where she was chosen captain of the " All-Australian " Junior. Team — thus earning the nick-name " International Symes." She has also represented Geelong in the Combined Country XI which played against the State Senior side. She has been an inspiration to her fellow hockey players and all here at Morongo wish her the best of luck for 1969 and future years and look forward to seeing her play in the Senior State XI next year.

A Visit to Alexandra College

The first weekend of third term is a memorable one for our Senior A hockey and basketball teams who spent two days at Alexandra College in Hamilton. An enthusiastic welcome awaited us when we arrived at about 11.00 a.m. and we were taken by our hostesses to morning tea. We were then shown around the two colleges of A.C. and B.C. before having lunch. The matches in the afternoon were held at Myrniong, the boarding house where most of us slept. They began with the hockey match which Morongo won after a very exciting game, and then we all moved to Pedrina Park basketball courts to try to uphold Morongo's status but alas we lost convincingly. After coming from the courts we were greeted by the smell of sizzling chops and found a roaring barbecue awaiting us. We all helped to clean up then changed ready to go to the "Monivae " Dance which we all enjoyed, thanks to the Head Prefect of Monivae for making it possible for us to attend. Next morning we were awakened early and reluctantly rose to go to breakfast and afterwards walked to church. During dinner Frances Spry presented Mrs. Waters, the head mistress of A.C. with a trophy and Lyn Batty gave their sports-mistress, Miss Shaw a box of chocolates as a token of our appreciation. At about 2.00 p.m. we headed back to Geelong after saying all our goodbyes. On behalf of all the girls we would like to thank Miss Rainsford, Miss Heindorff and Frances for arranging the trip and taking us, and our special thanks go to Mrs. Waters and Miss Shaw for making us all feel so much at home and giving us such a marvellous weekend. Heather Roydhouse and Deidre Hookings.

House Committee

Ardens House Report

Penelope Brian (Head of the Boarding House), Jane Beckmann, Sue Berlyn, Andrea French, Jane Hewitt, Gillian Horne, Elspeth Maconachie, Judith Matheson, Anne Mathison, Elizabeth McLeod, Judith Menzies, Glenda Mitchell, Glenda Notman, Rennie Potter, Edith Prenter, Barbara Selman, Robyn Sisson, Frances Spry, Robyn Woodburn.

" Seek Wisdom" It was disappointing to find that many Ardens girls after showing greater enthusiasm and House spirit in 1967, did not continue to do so in 1968. For the first time in three years Ardens won the Swimming Sports with the new house, Venters getting off to a promising start by coming second. At least there are many enthusiastic swimmers in Ardens and our vocal supporters were as loud as any. Our congratulations go to the individual champions, especially our own, Marilyn Ford (Junior Champion), Meredith Cooper (Junior Runnerup), and Ann Hucker (Intermediate Champion) and also to Venters for their fine effort.

Page Thirty

Unfortunately the swimming enthusiasts were not all music lovers as was proved when Ardens was placed last in the Music Competitions held in June. Next year I hope that there will be a far greater interest shown in these competitions and that instead of having the smallest choir we will have the largest. Congratulations Lawson on coming first and thanks to Elizabeth MacLeod and Heather Wishart for playing so well for us. Despite the long postponement, the Athletic Sports when finally held in third term proved a most successful meeting for everyone despite the fact Ardens came last once again. Judith and I would like to thank all those who so willingly practised and cheerfully participated. We congratulate Harris the victors and the champions especially Janet Coutts who showed great stamina to become Junior Champion. Although we were not successful in the Inter-house hockey, basketball and table-tennis matches the girls in the teams are to be praised for their valiant efforts and unfailing high spirits. We hope that Ardens will do better in the tennis and baseball matches yet to be played. To Judith Downey, I can only say, " Thank you for a job well done and for all the support and advice you have given me throughout the year." I am sure all the girls will agree she has done an excellent job, devoting most of her spare time to the House. She joins with me in thanking those senior girls who have helped us both so much in the organization of the House. We come to school to " Seek Wisdom " and part of that wisdom is knowing how to lose, as well as win, gracefully. I hope Ardens girls will always remember that and will go on to accept the bad with the good without losing their good-will and determination. Good luck for 1969 Ardens. Anne Clutterbuck.

Harris House Report

"Not Failure, but Low Aim is Crime" A school house is a small society in which each individual plays a vital part and each action affects the final results. I am proud to say that the majority of Harris girls have aimed high in 1968 and on the whole have been well rewarded for their enthusiasm and hard work. The first major Inter-house competition, the Swimming Sports, was held at Norlane on 8th March and we congratulate Ardens and the individual champions on their successes. Swimming is not Harris' strong point but there was nothing lacking in our vocal support. It was pleasing to see Venters make their debut by taking second place. The Music Competitions took place on 11th June and this time Lawson took the honours, congratulations! Harris sang and played its way to second place and I feel that our pianists, Jan Spokes (Senior), and Alison Kirkpatrick (Junior), deserve our special appreciation. Because of the erratic weather conditions the Athletic Sports were postponed until third term, 19th October, the ovals being first too Page Thirty-One

dry, then too wet. Harris was successful in retaining the Margaret Shannon Cup for Athletics to make it three in a row. Congratulations to all participants, the individual champions and especially our own house members: Elizabeth Whiteside (equal Sub-junior runnerup), Myrna Walter (Intermediate Champion) and Jan Spokes (Senior Champion). Inter-house sport in basketball, hockey and table-tennis was held in second term, with our teams winning the Sub-junior and Senior basketball as well as the Senior hockey, and Junior table-tennis. The tennis and baseball matches are now in progress. The Tuesday morning " lists " are a constant indication of the level of House spirit, unfortunately some girls do not seem to have their full share, a little extra effort by a few could make a lot of difference. On behalf of Harris I would like to thank Ardens, Lawson, Roslyn and Venters for their keen competition throughout the year. My personal thanks go to Jan Spokes our sports-captain who has done so much for Harris through organization and participation, Penelope Rhodes, our vice-captain, and most Harris girls for their support and co-operation. 1968 has been a very memorable year; good luck to all Harris members, especially those venturing beyond school, and I trust those returning will endeavour to make 1969 as successful, if not more so. Mary Honey.

Lawson House Report

Page Thirty-Two

"To Strive, to Seek, to Find, and not to Yield" Although this year has not been a particularly successful one for Lawson, nearly every Lawson girl has shown great enthusiasm towards her house activities. Our first major house competition was the Swimming Sports and although Lawson tried hard they only succeeded in coming third. Our congratulations go to all the houses who competed and especially Ardens who won, and our own champions Heather Taylor (SubJunior), and Lyn Crellin (Intermediate runner-up). During second term Lawson competed successfully in the House Music Competitions and I would like to thank all girls who took part so enthusiastically, especially Christine Duncan. We were also successful in the Hockey and Basketball matches, winning both Junior Shields and we congratulate Harris on winning both Senior Shields. Our Athletic Sports held during third term were a great success, Harris proved too strong for all of us and gained first place while Venters won the Marching. Our congratulations go to these two houses and to our champions Valmai Hunter (Sub-Junior), and Anne Chirnside (Junior runner-up). I would like to thank all the teachers and girls for the enthusiasm they have shown during the year, especially Jane Hewitt our Sports Captain, and Lynne Cooke our Vice-Captain. Finally I would like to wish Lawson good luck for the future and I hope all girls remember their motto. Jane Beckmann.

Roslyn House Report

" We are Judged by Our Deeds" Although Roslyn has been consistent in all her efforts we have been unable to gain any first placings. This is definitely not due to a lack of enthusiasm as most of the girls have maintained a strong House spirit throughout the year. Roslyn was placed fourth in the Swimming Sports held on 8th March at the Norlane Pool. Our congratulations go to Ardens upon winning and to Heather Roydhouse who was runner-up to the Senior Champion. The results of the Athletic Sports were a pleasing improvement on last year's, with Roslyn in second place. This time we congratulate Lynette Anderson who was Sub-Junior runner-up and Joanne Heard, Senior runner-up, also the other champions and Harris on its success. Owing to the drought conditions during first term the ovals were unable to be used, so the tennis and baseball matches have been postponed until this term. Hockey, basketball and table tennis were successfully conducted throughout second term with Roslyn proving successful in the Senior Table Tennis. The Inter-house Music Competitions were also held during second term, concluding with Lawson the successful House and Roslyn in third place. Our thanks go to Ann Brownsworth who was responsible for training our choir and we congratulate her too, upon winning the Senior pianist's section. Next year however, we hope there will be an even greater response and consequently a larger choir ! Within the House there are still a few girls who seem to be unco-operative in the classroom and our success in the academic line has been handicapped. However, we hope there will be as much enthusiasm in the classroom as there is on the sporting fields next year. I would like to thank Robyn Woodburn, our sports captain and Helen Darby, our vice-captain, for their unfailing help and continual support throughout the year, and I also thank all the Matriculation girls who have been extremely willing to help at every opportunity. In concluding, I wish all Roslyn girls of 1969 a successful year and hope that they will remember ;they are " judged by their deeds." Rennie Potter.

Venters House Report

"No Victory without Effort" To perpetuate the name of Venters, the family which has played such an important part in the development of Morongo, it was decided to create a fifth School House, giving it their name. House officials were chosen last year, and the members of the House volunteered, or their names were chosen in age groups from a hat. Our members of staff, Mrs. Thom, Mrs. Mackinnon, Mrs. Clarke, Mrs. Dellar, Miss Lewis, Miss Gibson, Miss Stevenson and Miss Lawson are all volunteer members of the House, and have never been wanting in enthusiasm or encouragement. Page Thirty-Three

Royal blue was chosen for our House colour, and the House voted unanimously for the motto " No Victory without Effort," I hope that this will serve as a source of inspiration for the House in the years to come as it has for us this year. The girls have been very enthusiastic and have responded keenly to every House activity. We began the year with the School Swimming Sports which were held at Norlane Pool on 8th March. The day resulted in a win for Ardens, followed by Venters, Lawson, Roslyn and Harris. Our congratulations to Ardens and to the individual champions, particularly our own Sub-Junior runner-up, Virginia Wilson and Senior Champion, Judith Menzies. Our next House effort was the House Music Competitions on 11th June. We congratulate Lawson on their success, and we also congratulate our choir on gaining first place in their section. The large numbers of girls in the choir, and their enthusiasm, was very pleasing. Owing to the condition of the ovals during first term, the Athletic Sports were held on 19th October this year. The day was not filled with success for Venters, but we were well represented in all aspects of the sports and there was a good deal of House spirit, which is equally important. We did win the Marching, and we have an Intermediate runner-up champion — congratulations Bronwyn Johnson. Congratulations to Harris on their victory, and to the other houses for providing such good and enjoyable competition. Inter-house Hockey, Basketball and table-tennis matches were played throughout second term with the usual House spirit, but with very little success for Venters. Our hopes now lie in Inter-house baseball and tennis, being played at the moment. Venters fared better in the work totals and the weekly lists which have been consistently good although we have had our share of un-co-operativeness. The final House results should prove to be very interesting. Much of the credit for establishing Venters on a firm footing must go to our Sports captain, Pauline Day. Pauline has worked enthusiastically all year, and Venters could not have achieved its high standard without her. I would like to thank Glenda Mitchell, my vice-captain, for her invaluable assistance, and the staff for their interest throughout the year. It has been a wonderful experience starting Venters. What could have been a difficult task was rendered smooth by the enthusiasm of the girls who make up this House. Thank you Venters for a memorable 1968. Good luck for 1969. Judith Menzies.

Folk Activities

Page Thirty-Four

During the early weeks of the year, folk singing and guitar playing resounded throughout the Boarding House in preparation for the first folk event in our calendar — the Fete day concerts. The auditions were well patronized and the quality was exceptionally high. The concerts were held in a mellow Coffee-house setting which gave the desired atmosphere for the singing, and we were pleased to raise $77.81 for the Parents' and Friends' Association.

Another concert, for the daygirls was held during one lunch hour at which we raised $14 to buy Easter eggs for the children at Glastonbury Orphanage. Armed with 6 dozen eggs and our guitars, we set off the Sunday before Easter for the Orphanage where we entertained and distributed the eggs, much to the delight of the children! — we hope they also enjoyed the performance! In second term, the Boarding House music competitions were held and a folk singing section was introduced, proving very popular. Two groups represented the club in the School Concert held at the end of the term. Once again they surprised the daygirls and parents with their high standard of singing. At the Four Schools' Music Night, held this year in Morrison Hall, three folksongs were presented by Morongo. Third term activities have been restricted because of examinations, however we have enjoyed all we have done throughout the year and we thank everyone, particularly Miss Rainsford, Miss Habersberger and Miss Philip, for their support. Judith Matheson.

Boarding House Events

This year has been a memorable one for those leaving and those returning in the Boarding House. Everyone has become very interested in her respective house activities including new ones which have been introduced. At the beginning of the year as there were large numbers in the Boarding House, two new houses were introduced, namely Hirst and Pettitt. The names of all girls in the original houses were picked out of a hat to be in one of the six houses. House captains and Sports captains were then elected. Page Thirty-Five

The first House competition was at the Annual Swimming Sports when there was a relay team from each of the six houses. The results were: Hirst, David, Hearne, and McPhee. As the girls had decided on some identification of their boarding houses, a colour combined with the traditional navy blue for boarders, was organized. The house colours are: David, green and navy; Hearne, light-blue and navy; Hirst, white and navy; McPhee, orange and navy; Neilson, yellow and navy, and Pettitt, red and navy. An " entertainment evening " was enjoyed this year by all houses. This consisted of two songs, one light-hearted and the other, more serious, a skit by the houses, all with a set title, and a folk singing group. Mrs. Pearcy was very kind and gave up her time to adjudicate the different items and give helpful hints. The final results were McPhee, 351 points; Hearne, 341 points; Pettitt, 33 points; Hirst, 31 points; Neilson, 281 points; and David, 27 points. We all hope that this is continued next year. Another new light-hearted competition this year was the " MiniAths " held on the last Saturday of second term. There were obstacle races, three-legged musical chairs, bun eating, apple dunking, and various other unskillful races. Even the staff took part in a donkey race with the house captains and sports captains. This was a day when everyone, from the youngest to the oldest could take part and we sincerely thank Miss Rainsford and Miss Heindorff, especially for making it such an enjoyable afternoon. To highlight the day there was a winning trophy, made by Barbara Symes and her father, which looked stunning, given to David, the winning house. A wooden spoon with the School ribbons on it was awarded to the house least in luck. David won with 218 points followed by Hearne with 193, McPhee with 190, Neilson with 167, Hirst with 162 and Pettitt with 161. To finish off the day the houses paired off and had barbecue teas in various parts of the School. Miss Shaw visited each gathering, and everyone enjoyed herself immensely. We hope that this is a good sign and that the " MiniAths " will be an annual event. Boarders' sport was begun in second term and most girls proved to be very co-operative and enthusiastic. The Sports captains led their houses very ably, those being Joanne Heard (David), Christine Coutts (Hearne), Kaye Dickson (Hirst), Judith Matheson (McPhee), Deidre Hookings (Neilson), and Gwyn MacDougal (Pettitt). The final results were: David, Hirst, Hearne, Neilson, Pettitt and McPhee. This year, the first time for many, many, years the Boarders won the Daygirls', Boarders', Old Collegians' race at the Annual Athletic Sports which was very pleasing to see, especially for the Boarders. This year also at our sports we had a boarding house relay which showed no lack in enthusiasm for the competition. Hearne won with David, Neilson and McPhee following closely behind. I know the Boarders would want me to thank Miss Rainsford especially for organizing the new events with the house captains and making the year so much more enjoyable within the boarding houses. We hope that next year will be just as successful. Robyn Woodburn. Page Thirty-Six

Junior School Auxiliary

It is with much pleasure that I present the Annual Report of the Morongo Junior School Auxiliary for 1968. Most of the meetings throughout the year have been held at McPhillimy Hall but attendances have been lower than usual. As the aim of the Auxiliary is to promote friendship between mothers and to help the Junior School, the Committee would be very happy to welcome more mothers at future meetings. The best attended meeting was held at the Gertrude Pratt Hall, when 53 mothers were present. As a result it has been decided to hold one meeting per term at the Junior School in the hope of promoting more interest. Our Annual Social Evening with Miss Shaw and Junior School Staff Members was held at the Gama Theatre, where we saw the Noel Coward play " Present Laughter ". Afterwards mothers had the opportunity of meeting the Teachers at supper. A varied syllabus this year included a very interesting talk by Mr. Ross Scott, a Geelong Jeweller, who spoke on his favourite gem, the opal. Miss Courtney explained the new reading methods at the June meeting, after which the mothers were able to inspect the School. Our President, Mrs. Davidson told us of her fascinating trip to Turkey and Mr. Fred Herd gave us a lively and expert talk on buying and storing meat. At the September meeting five mothers modelled hats from Hendersons in a parade which was ably compered by Mrs. Noelle Cook. The morning coffee at the Community Aid Abroad rooms was again enjoyed by the members. At this year's Garden Party the Auxiliary's successful cake stall realised $83.80. It was decided at a Parents' and Friends' Association meeting that this money be left in a joint account to help build and equip a Canteen adjoining the existing Domestic Science block. Once again I feel that I voice the thoughts of all mothers in thanking Miss Shaw, Miss Courtney and the members of the Junior School Staff for their continued interest in, and encouragement of our children. Thanks are also due to Committee Members for arranging flowers, dispatching Notices of Meetings and their able support during the past year. My special thanks also to those mothers who volunteered to provide afternoon tea at the meetings, and to the retiring Committee Members and retiring Treasurer Mrs. Connie Inglis my sincere thanks for their sterling efforts during the year. In closing, may I extend on behalf of all Junior School Mothers our thanks to Mrs. Davidson our retiring President, for her leadership and co-operation during the past two years, and to Mrs. Rachinger who so ably performed her duties whilst Mrs. Davidson was abroad. With best wishes to the Auxiliary for the coming year. Jean Gray-Thompson, Honorary Secretary.

Afternoon Auxiliary of Parents' and Friends' Association

The Afternoon Auxiliary of the Parents' & Friends' Association has completed another interesting year with eight meetings being held. A varied syllabus has been provided including two morning coffee meetings held at McPhillimy Hall. Our most successful meetings have been those held at the School when staff members spoke of recent developments in the approach to their subjects. This year the staff members who spoke were Mesdames Pearcy and Mackinnon and Misses Botterill and Sutherland. In April we welcomed a very large gathering to the School Hall to hear Miss Shaw and Dr. Russell speak on social standards and the effect on our girls. As a result of this meeting a committee was formed to endeavour to acquaint all Morongo parents of the problem and to seek their help and opinions. In August a circular was sent to all Senior School parents by this committee who have been very heartened by the response of the parents and at present are preparing a follow-up letter. This committee was also responsible for the organization of a social for Form IV girls which was held on October 5th. Other meetings have included a talk by Mrs. C. Jacobs and two demonstrations, one of wigs and the other an interesting and profitable meal demonstration. Members of the Auxiliary contributed much to the success of the fete held in March, the result of the day being $1,537.68. This money being held by the Parents' & Friends' Association towards the proposed canteen project. Pamela Taylor, Hon. Sec.

We again played a major role in organizing the Garden Party held at the School in March which raised a nett profit of $1,537.68. The date of the next Garden Party will be 15th March, 1969. During the year Mr. Errol Wood was elected treasurer to replace Mr. Cowperthwaite who was transferred. We thank our President Mr. A. Lucas and Dr. Don Taylor for his outstanding work as Chairman of the Organizing Sub-Committee for the Annual Garden Party. Lilli as Matheson, Hon. Sec.

The Annual Speech Night was held at the Palais Royal on December 6th. Our guest speaker was Dr. E. G. Eden, M.A., Ph.D. (Cantab.), M.Sc. (Melb.), Principal of Janet Clarke Hall, who spoke on the importance of careers for girls. Dr. Eden also presented the book prizes and sports trophies were presented by Mrs. Daryl Heath, President of the Old Collegians. Miss Shaw presented her Annual Report and the School Choir under the direction of Miss Blowes sang " Poverty " (Traditional Welsh) and " In Bethlehem City " (arranged by R. Vaughan Williams). The School sang " Now Brightly Beams " (Nicolai, arranged by J. S. , Bach) and Sing Aloud on This Day " (Traditional German, arranged by G. Holst).

Social Service Report

Wordsworth said " Small service is true service " and so we have used this as our motto for the social service done within the School, this year. During Red Cross Month we received badges which we sold throughout the forms and the amount raised was $14.60, to which we added money out of the General Fund to send a total amount of $40 to the appeal. Some members of the Boarders' Folk Club gave a concert to the day girls, raising money to buy Easter Eggs for the children of Glastonbury Orphanage. $14 enabled us to give each child a large egg and we went out on Sunday, 31st March and gave a concert in the hall, after presenting them with the eggs. " Corilong " is a new centre, built to look after retarded children in Corio and surrounding districts and we sent $30 to their Building Fund. During the last week of first term we collected second-hand clothing, foodstuffs and first aid supplies to send to refugees in Vietnam. We had a wonderful response to this appeal. After the School Dance was held, we auctioned the boys' official replies and raised $14.00 for the General Fund. A special effort was made in June to raise money for the Aust Care and Freedom from Hunger Appeal and a cheque for $90 was sent from girls and staff. Owing to suggestions of many senior girls we held an appeal to aid Biafran refugees. It was a competition between the five School houses and we congratulate Harris on being the victor! However, the whole School is to be praised for the wonderful effort which raised $100.35. Third term opened with the collection of second-hand clothing which was brought from home after the holidays. This was then packed and sent to the Women of the University for Save the Children Fund. Throughout the year the forms have had fetes during winter months and these have all been very successful, especially when hot soup or coffee was available in bleak, wintry weather. Without these fetes our Social Service work would not be able to continue and so I would like to thank all the girls for their enthusiasm in holding them. We have also been continually collecting stamps and bottle tops which we send to the Women of the University, to be sold. As you can see, Social Service work has played an active part in our school life and I would like to thank Miss Evans and Miss Steere for their untiring support and organization throughout the year. I hope the girls are as enthusiastic next year as they have been throughout 1968 and that they will continue the Social Service work. Glenda Notman.

Thirteen years of M.R.N.O.

" You haven't, oh no! heavens I suppose you are relieved this is your last year." This is the usual remark when someone asks me how long I have been at Morongo. Thirteen years — yet it seems only yesterday I was playing in the " sand-pit ' at Morongo kindergarten. I can remember what fun I had going to school on the Junior bus, and then I finally graduated to the Junior School. My very own hat, tunic, blazer and most of all school case, and although my feet did not touch the floor of the bus as yet, I considered myself a " big " girl now. What can I tell you of those four years at the Junior School? Many times I just could not help myself from walking down the " Teachers corridor " and when caught in the act by Miss Courtney, having to do " bear walk " five times up and down the hall. One day I had the sudden urge to whistle, even louder than the sparrows. I whistled all right, especially when Miss Courtney gave me my first (well deserved) spanking, and those uncontrollable tears rolled down my face! Being in fourth grade in the Junior School was like being in Matriculation in the Senior School. So you can imagine my mixed feelings when I became a " Senior " and entered fifth grade. No more pinafores, no more milk at recess, and now I had graduated to the Senior School Bus and there I stood outside the " Great Western " for eight years and not yet been inside! I was petrified of Miss Graham, and trembled in my school shoes when she asked me a question. A typical question: " Lyn Batty — please give me a verb;" Lyn shaking from head to tiny toes answered, Miss Graham, (in a very loud voice) " A verb is a doing We word, Lyn can you we across the room"? !! ! Can you imagine the blank expression on my face? Soon I graduated to French and the most " misbehaved " years of my school life which included chewing gum, water pistols, playing silly jokes on teachers, and frequent, very frequent visits to Miss Shaw's office. Indeed I could say I became part of the office furniture for a short time. My last three years have been happy and sad. Nothing much happened in Intermediate. " Intermediate G " had a bad reputation, so one felt like a gangster at times! I have forgotten to tell you about the second time I was " spanked." I am sure Miss de Ferranti would not mind; as usual my lack of attention in sport lessons was causing some worry. So Miss de Ferranti called me out in front of the class, told me to bend over (naturally I thought we were going to play Leap Frog) and the full force of her hand hit one of my softer spots! I was shocked and amazed, so shocked, it took me a full five minutes to get off the ground! Last year around this time, I accidentally left my transistor going during the broadcast of the Melbourne Cup. When told to turn it off I could not find the switch until the race had finished. I was popular with the rest of the form, but with the teachers! How am I to describe Matriculation, the year I have waited twelve years for, was it really worth all that trouble?

Page Fifty-Six

This year has been the happiest and yet the unhappiest, full of success and disappointments, laughter, hope and embarrassment. The most important things I have gained are knowledge (I hope) and most of all very warm friendships. Morongo has been practically my life and every night I have told my Mother of some new problem. I have had a great time; Ayers Rock, Queensland, Geography excursions, and all I have had to do with Roslyn. In this last year I have gained more than I had ever hoped for in my school life. There is no ending I can think of more appropriate than "Ichamalaya"! To those lucky ones returning, make the most of the opportunities Morongo has to offer, as I am sure you will regret your last Speech Night. Lyn Batty (17 years).

The Things you Say . . . Historical!

They sent two Members of Parliament, irrespective of their size or population. Florence Nightingale wrote an eye-rate letter from the Korean War. 70 aborigines on a kangaroo, together with their wives and children were massacred.

Breeding Rats

The demand for laboratory rats in Geelong is great, especially in the High School Biology course. One pair of wild rats can produce three hundred and fifty million descendants in three years. Tame rats are not nearly so productive and, of course, their breeding can be controlled. They can be bred about eight times a year averaging seven in a litter. The white rat's intelligence has been underestimated. Laboratory tests have shown that rats are capable of deep reasoning. On the other hand rats can do some stupid things. This is probably a reason for scientists thinking that they are so much like humans. White rats have been inbred, brothers to sisters, for so many generations that they are, " identical twins." Rats, being omnivorous, eat nearly anything. They should be fed sour milk as it contains lactic acid, which serves as a body builder. They need a lot of vitamins and minerals. White rats are said to like beer, popcorn and ice-cream, but these aren't good for them. Plenty of hard nuts to crack are very necessary as rats' teeth are constantly growing and, if they are not given nuts to gnaw, their teeth may grow through their cheeks or into their brains. The maximum life of a rat is three years but it is rare to find one this age. Rats make ideal pets as they need a small living space, they are clean, and very friendly. Jill Adams (13 years).

Buderim

Buderim is a small town on the top of a hill looking down into a beautiful valley. There are many beautiful gardens and most of the population is retired people. It is situated about twenty miles inland and ninety miles from Brisbane, the capital of Queensland. Buderim has many tourist attractions, The Seal Park, The Ginger Factory and the Pioneer Cottage. The Seal Park is on the main road, a little way out of the town. There are koalas in most of the trees and there were several seals which were fascinating to see being fed. There were many birds such as parrots, rosellas, parakeets, peacocks and peahens, lyrebirds, water birds and many other species. Besides these animals they had a buffalo, a camel, a monkey, a land tortoise and some rabbits. There was a large array of old machines, washing machines, mangles, old steam engines, old tractors and also an old bullock wagon. The Ginger Factory at Buderim is the only one in the Southern Hemisphere. The ginger is grown around Buderim and processed there. The golden ginger has to be picked in three weeks. It is milder than the other type which can be left for another month or so before being picked. At the Ginger Factory there is a small theatrette in which a short film is shown called " The Story of Ginger in Australia " which illustrated the planting of ginger to the final packaging. After the film has finished you can go upstairs where there is a platform above the factory. From here you can see huge concrete brine tanks where the ginger can be kept indefinitely, this insures yearly employment for factories. There are rows and rows of women cutting and grading ginger which is the only part of the processing which isn't mechanized at all. Then a conveyor belt with girls on each side carries the ginger into separate bins after they have sorted the ginger into two groups — the fibrous pieces which will be used for syrups and the good pieces which are used for crystallizing. Then there is a section for jams and syrups, a crystallizing plant and a packaging section. Then, in the strawberry season they process strawberries. There are girls standing beside a conveyor belt sorting the strawberries which are to be canned and the strawberries for jams and syrups. The Pioneer Cottage at Buderim was the first house built in the district. It was given to the Buderim Historical Society in 1966 and it was opened in September 1967 as a tourist attraction. There is a main bedroom beautifully furnished with bedspreads and curtains, a living room with a few glass cabinets with many historical pieces arranged in it and one wall was completely covered with old photographs. Then upstairs there is a very small nursery with an old doll the size of a five year old child sitting in the rocker. Next to the nursery there is a maid's room. The dining room is very ornate and off it was a very wide passage filled with historical pieces. The kitchen has two large fireplaces with pots and pans hung over them. Buderim interested me a great deal and I would like to visit it again in the very near future. Wendy Inglis, 12 years.

Ode to a Puffball

It sat there — Staring at me, oozing sulkiness with its undulating irregularities protruding ominously. I stabbed. It rolled . . evading my menacing fork, But — I was not outdone by the alarming rotundity of this static fat, Disguised — in a golden oleaginous splendour. Rennie Potter (17 years).

The Alien

I stood alone, utterly alone — an alien — and watched the tide of faces flow by — uncaring, impersonal, busy faces. Faces which, if they looked at me, turned away in resentment, hate, and maybe even fear. Faces which failed to realize or to pity that I stood there with my dreams in splinters at my feet. Inside, my mind was in turmoil as I remembered the other voices which had said, " You'll regret it ", and the woman who had clung to me weeping, her heart naked in those beautiful eyes. But I had overcome all this as I replied, " Darling, I have to go, I have to see for myself, I have to prove myself, I have to find my own place in this world." Yet now how futile such a dream and such words seemed, all my early toil had been in vain — I was a leper, jobless and nearly penniless. Time was all I had, time to watch them. To watch the beautiful women, with a bitter hurt that they were cherished at face value and not because of personal attributes or the work that had earned my Master of Arts degree. I saw the long-haired youths loitering by, gay and merry in their confidence, a selfconfidence no longer inspired in me by my immaculate suit and white shirt. Then a child came past, miserably tugging at the arm relentlessly towing it along, and a childish voice said, " Ooh! Mummy, look he's black!" The child showed a naive interest but the muted voice which replied, " Hush dear, don't stare! He is not nice," conveyed contempt and hurt me deeply for it taught the innocent infant to hate and to shun. Then suddenly I was joined by a man — an old man, who with a weatherbeaten, grimy face was trying with his gnarled, shaking fingers to gather his few tattered garments around his feeble frame. I pitied him and forgetting my self-pity in my sorrow for this ill creature I turned and helped him. He did not shun me, he needed me and in his words, " Thank you, my son,"I found great joy, joy that I was useful to someone in however small a way. Praising God I turned and head held high I stepped into the crowd, a part of it, a useful person. An alien? Susan Connor (16 years). Page Fifty-Nine

Silver

Silver is the moon and heavenly bodies, the tails of comets, and the shining furrows in the sky, left by meteors. Silver is Venus, bright and morning star, and the palace of the Ice Maiden. Silver are the pipes of Pan, and the notes woven from those reeds. Silver are the gossamer webs of spiders, the topmost leaves of the aspen, the slender figure of a birch bathed in silver filigree. Silver is frost and ice on hills and valleys, frost glistening on spangled leaves, ice glistening on mountain peaks, dew glistening on the damp, fragrant earth, and on grass and flowers. The rain on the iron roof is silver, fine, needle-sharp silver. The trail of a snail is silvered, and the lights of a diamond ring. The frosting on the wedding-cake is silver, too. Silver is the sand, the moonlight shore, the sparkling waters of the gulf, full of elfin madness; Silver is the pale mist that engulfs you out on the bar, the silver ribbon that is a glacier on the mountain. The song of a nightingale is a clear, limpid, poignant silver. Silver is the clear ringing of a bell, the crystal fountains, sending out sprays of silver showers, the bubbling of the brook, as it courses over the stones. Silver; sweet, cool, elusive silver. Penelope Wilson (14 years).

Autumn

How The Porcupine Got its Quills

Autumn, the fiercest caress of sun and death, Blazes to fiery reds then Crackles to dusty browns. And slowly fades, fades, Fades away white Beneath the soft intruder Snow.

• • Zannette Kelly (15 years).

One day a porcupine was walking through the bush contented and very happy when suddenly he heard a great hissing noise. Turning round he saw the biggest rattle snake he had ever seen. He was quite aware that the snake could swallow him alive and whole. Now the porcupine was so scared he started to grow goose pimples and they grew and grew and didn't stop till they were long and hard with points on them. When the rattlesnake saw this, he slithered back to the bush for he was so scared himself. This is how the porcupine might have grown its quills and kept them. Elizabeth Hurley (10 years).

Haiku

Standing all alone The solitary willow Weeps its saddened plight The steady pitter Needles of rain penetrate The thirsty parched earth. Time flows on The river of eternal Impeccability. Turbulent waters Transcending crests of foam and Ever destructive. Red sky and brown soil Barren and monotonous These hot desert plains. A small seed floats down Blowing carefree with the wind Alone and helpless. Mountains are Nature's Monuments to the efforts of the Creator. What is nature but A revealing light of enchantment To human enquiry. Roses are so sweet Their pink petals surrounded With the hum of bees. The beauty of small Things inspires Japanese to Write Haikus for joy. Written by: E. Baker, C. Brewster, A. Herd, J. Keddie, A. Kefford, B. Mackinnon and K. Macmillan.

Time

Time slips from us Like sand through our fingers. The days slide on — An irrepressible force. When shall we halt To consider life's moments? When shall we use Each hour to the full? Margaret Anne Scott (17 years). Page Sixty-One

Tanka

Rain drops fall softly Over the warm humid soil. Their refreshing sound Is like a sweet lullaby That brings peace to still earth.

The Beginner

From the moment he got out of the car one could tell he was a beginner from the innocent look on his face right down to the new ski boots. Of course skiing is easy, everyone knows it's easy; his dear friends said he would " get the knack " in no time at all. He took his new skis off the roof with a loving touch and stood for a moment regarding the straps and buckles. A formidable array to be sure but he was not daunted — soon he would be flying over that soft white snow, free as a bird. After a short struggle with the " formidable array, " he attached them to his feet and took his first tremulous step. This it seemed was the wrong thing to do as somehow he landed flat on his back in that soft white snow (which by the way was not quite as soft as he thought). After a moment's deliberation he managed to stand up. Advancing a few uneasy slides he landed, as before, flat on his back. He progressed slowly in this way and managed to arrive at the beginners' slopes. He stood for a moment at the bottom of the gentle rise which loomed larger now he was close to it. Well, as they say, nothing ventured nothing gained, so full of brave determination he attacked the hill. Friends, have you ever seen anything so strange as a person sliding down a hill backwards on skis? Alas for our poor adventurer! Picking himself up out of the snow slightly red and abashed he again attacked the hill. It seemed that some of us are fated to be unlucky and again our friend experienced the ignominious feeling of sliding backwards down the hill. This time however, he heard an ominous tearing sound. Disappointed and sadly disillusioned our friend made a hurried retreat to the car. Judith Clutterbuck (15 years).

A Block of Wood

Just think upon a block of wood, How meagre does it seem. But in its colour, shape and grain Is poured an artist's dream. To him the colours dance and gleam The shape is but a guise Of wonder, only known to Him Who made the earth and sky. And oh, the grains, if they could speak

What tales they could narrate Each curve and bend, each line and end Is like a stream in space.

A Witch

As black as night is her cloak, And pointed is her hat, She has her cat beside her, I'm positive of that. I saw her plucking cowslips And marked just where she stood, I'm sure she didn't see me, While hiding in the wood. Robyn Taylor (10 years). 11

Fire

I am a fire bright and warm, People flock round me out of the storm. They warm their hands, they warm their toes, In fact they warm even their nose. People sit near me having their tea, For comfort and warmth they come to me. They poke me about to see my flare, If I'm not looked after they'd better beware! Susan Fields (11 years).

The Melbourne Arts Centre

A walk along grey cobbled stones leads to a large glass window, shaped like a half moon, with fine spurts of chlorinated water running down it. Once inside a glass door, one is on the spongy carpet of Melbourne's new Arts Centre. After ascending a carpeted escalator and stepping off onto the first floor, very colourful brocades and lace greet one. The dainty and feminine lace is very fine like a spider's web and was made by hand many centuries ago, before the invention of machines. A large embroidered picture in many bright colours, which is about ten feet wide and six feet long decorates a side wall. This was also done by hand many years ago. A seventeenth century outfit of clothes adorns a model. These clothes have been well preserved and are made of the finest satin, silk and lace. Another few steps and one is in a large hall with fine Elizabethan silver, daintily carved with a brilliant shine of which all housewives would be envious. The delicate egg cups, chalices, bowls, urns, tea pots, large patterned serving plates and casserole dishes, all with a 'brilliant shine, fill numerous glass cases which are placed about the room. The most spectacular thing about the Arts Centre is the exquisite stained glass ceiling which took years to prepare and covers the grand hall. The artist has combined the red, blue, yellow and green glass between fine strips of lead which are arranged in an interesting design. This ceiling is one of the largest, of its type, in the world and has been admired by many artists and designers of many countries, who have come to see it. Asian clothes, pictures and trinkets fill another room. Carefully woven silks adorn the models, while other models are in cases. Page Sixty-Three

The kimonos and jackets have been woven in bright colours and exquisite patterns. Many gods and idols made of precious stones fill another case, while a hand made picture, telling a story, decorates a side wall. Also there are large wooden chests with people and animals carefully carved on them. Going into another room one is taken back to the time of primitive man, with all the ancient spears, head-dress and shields of the Australian Aborigines and the New Guinea savages of the Highlands. Totem poles and other trinkets of the New Zealand Maoris are also in this room. There are many other large rooms filled with psychadelic art, old furniture of many years ago, and pictures by expert artists. In the middle of this mass of stonework are three gay courtyards named in honour of famous Australians. One of the courtyards has statues and pieces of metal moulded together to form an abstract statue, while another has bamboo trees surrounded by white pebbles, and the third has large, graceful trees surrounded by seats on which the weary visitor to the Arts Centre can rest his aching feet. Louise Watson (13 years).

Le rivage

Le reflux roule sur le sable, Et dans le silence de l'aube, Les Hots retoutnent a la mer, Et s'entremelent et disparaissent, Et tout est calme. Les cretes sous la Croix australe, Se debattent pour rester, Mais elles se perdent, Dans le tourbillon de la mer, Et le soleil apparait. Rosemary Flanders (16 years).

Boredom

Page Sixty-Four

I look at the scab on my knee — It looks at me. No relief there. I try the desk, Once varnished, But now garnished with the carved initials Of generations of people like me. Bored people. Outside, out there, life is calling. Life? Or should I say strife? At lunchtime I had some saline in the palm of my hand. I gradually lowered the tip of my tongue Until it reached the saline. Then it shot back at me, Tingling with fizz. But now the palm of my hand is sticky. Is there no pleasure without pain? Katrina Watson (13 years).

The Things you Say . . . Geographical!

Most of the rain that falls in the Tropics is conventional. Climate depends on the clothes you wear. Much of the desert land is in hospital. The stream rises from its bed in the mountains.

Scared!

The silence is intense. You are next. When people were before you, there was only a mere butterfly attack to worry about. But now! Your heart seems like a great machine, pounding, pounding. So quiet, everybody can hear it. It's hard to swallow. Throat so dry. Take a deep breath. No, that's no good. You look around. Friends wish good luck. Your house is depending on you. If only they knew that is why you are scared. All eyes are on you. Here goes! Anne Chirnside (14 years).

An Old Lady Crossing the Road

She painfully lowered one foot from the pavement onto the road. The other scrawny stick of a foot followed. Her back was hunched and she grasped her sagging black shopping bag with her veined fingers as though it was her one possession. She lowered her head and shuffled off across the road, oblivious of anything else, and miraculously managed to reach the opposite side safely. Heather McKewan (15 years).

The Stallion

Arched neck and sweating brow He canters down the country track Caring nought for saddle and bridle And the rider on his back. Through fields,and over pastures, Down lanes, round the marshes. The cool wind of the crisp young morning Hits his face as he dashes on, Tireless in the dawning day. Susan Henshaw (14 years).

The Castle

It stood brown and yellow Burnished gold, Strong and tall; mute, enshrouded In the luminous mist Shot with points of fire From a molten sun In a burnished sky. Majestic and omnipotent In silence, Leprous with lichen It towered, rising Sheer, out of a black Green-blue eerieness Of quiet — That water is thirty centuries deep. Catriona McGregor (16 years). Page Sixty-Five

Loneliness

Doors creaked, windows rattled, roofing shook. Wind howled around the tiny shack like a lost dingo. An old man crouched inside, trying to get as much warmth as he could from a tiny fire. The room was small and draughty, but it was home to him. Scattered around it were many souvenirs, keepsakes. He wouldn't lose them for anything — they were his only link with the past. Looking up at an old china horse standing on the mantlepiece, he began to rock and remember. It had been at a fair, a grand fair, that he had won that. Oh, what fun it had been! People everywhere, no one sad. Gay, swirling machines, colour, happiness, love, had blossomed there. They had been the talk of the town, he and Gloria. They had gone everywhere together, done everything together but that love had faded out. The chime of the church clock jerked him from his reveries. He was nothing now, alone and sad. All through his childhood he had known love, people, fun. All this had gone now. How old was he? He could hardly remember. His loneliness seemed to stretch back a long way, and for all he knew, it would stretch on until he died. A scratching sound at the door. Was it only the wind? No, the wind didn't make that sort of noise. Craning his neck, the old man peered around. The scratching continued. Had someone come to see him? In his haste to open the door, he almost stumbled. His pulse raced. Hope which had almost gone, sprang It was anew. With trembling hands he opened the door only a cat, a ginger cat, looking for food. It ran away when he appeared. The old man felt weak and alone. Slowly he dragged his feet back to the fire, back to sit in loneliness, and memories . . . . . Wendy Katz (14 years).

Soliloquy

Page Sixty-Six

(with apologies to William Shakesepeare) Thou, Power, art my goddess; to thy law My services are bound. Wherefore should I Stand in the plague of custom, and permit The voracity of nations to deprive me, For that I am some twelve or fourteen shades Darker than my brother? Why nigger? wherefore inferior? When my dimensions are as well compact My mind as generous, and my shape as true, As whitefolk's issue? Why brand they us With inferior? with inferiority? coloured? black, black? Well then, Superior Whiteman, I must have your land: Our Father's love is to the black Nigger As to the Whiteman, fine word, — white! Well, my Whiteman, if this clenched fist strike And my invention thrive, coloured man Shall top the White. I grow; I prosper: Now, gods, stand up for Negroes! Lynne Cooke (17 years).

Other Places Like Biafra

The netting tastes bitter against my mouth, The barbs hook against my chest And draining down my cheeks are a few reluctant tears. I watch, with millions of others straining to get the food On the other side. My clothes stink, and the lice squirm around my ears, The festering sores open up and weep along my legs I swallow a dead locust hungrily And wonder miserably what life's all about On the other side. The day before yesterday I had no food; Yesterday nothing either; and today a locust; Tomorrow — Maybe I'll be where they all went . . On the other side. Thais Horne (15 years).

OLD COLLEGIAN S' ASSOCIATION Office-Bearers for 1969: President: Mrs. EATHORNE PAVIA. Senior Vice-President: Mrs. HELEN RICHARDSON. Junior Vice-President: Mrs. NOELE COOK. Secretary: Mrs. MARLENE RYAN. Assistant Secretary: Mrs. JOAN MORWOOD. Treasurer: Mrs. BARBARA CARR. Assistant Treasurer: Mrs. NORMA MOCKRIDGE. " Lucernian " Representative: Miss JEAN RENTOUL. I have pleasure in presenting the Annual Report for 1968 of the Morongo Old Collegians' Association. This year has been one of varied activity. Your Committee has been busy arranging different functions and at the same time keeping in contact with the branches and supporting them in all ways possible. The President joins with me in thanking all members of the Committee for their interest and help during the year. We also extend our thanks to those who have accepted office in the different branches, continuing to contact those Old Collegians throughout the state. As our President, Jennifer Heath, completes her term of office, the Cornittee and indeed all Collegians offer her their sincere gratitude for her capable and gracious leadership during the past two years. The Annual Meeting, 1967 was held in the Junior School at 11 a.m. and this time seemed most satisfactory. Melbourne Branch made a presentation to Miss Shaw for the School, an ink draw-

ing of Morongo by Max Cantleen. We extend our congratulations to Melbourne Branch for obtaining such a delightful gift for the School. Miss Shaw gave an interesting resume' of school activities during the year. The meeting was followed by a luncheon in the Founders Dining Hall at which we welcomed as our guests Miss Shaw, Miss Sutherland, Miss Henderson, Miss Rentoul, Mrs. Higginbotham, representatives from Combined Old Collegians' Association, M.L.C. Old Collegians, Melbourne Grammar Old Girls' Society, Hermitage Church of England Old Girls' Association and the School Prefects. Toasts were proposed to the School and to our guests. Miss Shaw responded on behalf of the School, supported by the Head Prefect. We record our thanks to Miss Shaw for her continued interest in the Old Collegians and the time and support so generously given. Eathorne Pavia and June McColl continued to represent us on the National Council of Women. We extend congratulations to June McColl who has held the office of Secretary of the Council so ably for some years. Old Collegians once again participated at the Garden Fete, by running a cake and biscuit stall and assisting with other stalls. To the many Old Collegians who supplied goods for sale we offer our sincere appreciation. Early in the year we entertained Miss Shaw and the staff of Morongo at a Theatre Party and afterwards at the home of the President for supper. We were able to attend the first performance of a play by " La Mancha Players " dramatic group which was started by an Old Collegian, Margaret Toyne. Later in the year the Old Collegians requested the use of the Gertrude Pratt Hall for La Mancha Players to present another play. Margaret Toyne worked most enthusiastically for the success of this play and the Art Exhibition held in conjunction with it. We congratulate Page Sixty-Nine

her on an excellent production. In this connection our thanks are due to Miss Shaw, Miss Rentoul and other members of staff who contributed to this project. The Old Collegians Committee are very conscious of the time given and the inconvenience suffered, and extend to them our appreciation. The Old Collegians served the supper and the Younger Set provided usherettes and sold programmes. Money raised will be distributed at the direction of the Old Collegians. On June 12th we again held a Midyear Luncheon at the Royal Commonwealth Society Rooms. This year the occasion was memorable because Nora Sutorius (Valk) who was revisiting Australia from Holland, was present. Many of those who were at school with Nora made an effort to attend and a very happy reunion was enjoyed. As Guest Speaker, Nora told us of her life in Holland with her young family, the beautiful city in which she lives, and of the Old Collegians who have passed through Holland in recent years. We thank Nora for her interesting talk illustrated by slides. In July we entertained Miss Shaw, Mr. and Mrs. E. McCann, representing the School Council, Mr. and Mrs. A. Lucas representing the Parents' and Friends' Association, and representatives from past student associations of other Geelong schools whose hospitality we have enjoyed during the year. On this occasion we attended the " Yeomen of the Guard ", at the Plaza Theatre. We once again thank our President, Jennifer Heath for the generous use of her home for supper. During the year the President and other Old Collegians have continued to visit Miss Pratt. She is still a resident of Harcourt Hospital and despite poor health at times, continues her interest in the Old Collegians and, we feel, appreciates our visits. We offer our sincere thanks to those who have represented us in sporting fixtures. Unfortunately, we were unable to compete in the Sun Golf Cup this year as our application was delayed in the mail. Rosemary Stewart once again organized the team for the Sun Page Seventy

Tennis Cup, postponed this year to 2nd October, because of dry weather. She played with Barbara Guthrie, Una McIntyre and Susanne Brown. Our Swimming team consisted of Elizabeth Wright, Sue Hocking, Jan Adams and Jane Urquhart. Janet Brewster, Judy Reid, Judy Winkler, Janine Anderson, Gill Walter, Kathy Maconachie and Wendy Barr made up our athletic team in the Sports in October. To all Branches we extend our congratulations for a successful year. Our thanks are due to those who have willingly accepted office and continued to serve the Old Collegians. Please accept our best wishes for 1969. Melbourne Branch once again held a most enjoyable Dance at 9 Darling Street. Representatives and Miss Shaw have been present at the two meetings held during the year. Western District Branch held their Annual Church Service at St. Andrew's Church, Colac, and the President, Jennifer Heath and Miss Shaw attended. In October, Miss Shaw and the Secretary were present at the Annual Meeting of this Branch. Miss Shaw and Miss Rentoul travelled to Shepparton for the Goulburn Valley Church Service in March and Jennifer Heath and Caroline Blokkeerus attended the Annual Meeting. Wimmera Branch held its Annual Meeting and Reunion in May, and Miss Shaw, Miss Rentoul, Jennifer Heath and Eathorne Pavia attended. The Younger Set under the leadership of Dawn Armstrong and Rosemary Matheson have continued to meet regularly during the year. A most interesting programme is always arranged and we urge all girls in this age group to join the Younger Set. I feel I must mention the fact that this year for our Reunion Luncheon, Miss Shaw and Miss Rentoul in agreement with the domestic staff, generously offered the School catering facilities This means that we can offer an excellent luncheon at an unchanged price. We are indeed fortunate to have such close co-operation with the School and to avail ourselves of this offer.

We record our thanks to all those who have assisted us during the year — to Miss Shaw for her co-operation at all times, to Miss Rentoul and the domestic staff for their assistance, to Mr. Geoff Neilson for his work as Auditor, and to Mrs. Higginbotham and the " Geelong Advertiser " for the use of their columns. It is with regret that we accept the resignation from the committee of Marjorie Reeve, who has contributed so much to the Old Collegians over the years, in office as President and on the committee. We extend our appreciation to her and to others leaving the committee. Our congratulations go to all who have married or have become engaged or who have announced the birth of a baby during the year. We also congratulate all who have been successful in their various careers. Our sincere sympathy is extended to all those who have suffered sorrow. The Association takes much pleasure in welcoming the girls leaving School this year. The Old Collegians Association only grows and progresses because it is enriched from year to year with new members who all contribute in their own special talents. We hope the girls leaving school in 1968 will enjoy their place in the Old Collegians' Association. Noele R. Cook, Honorary Secretary. IN MEMORIAM It was a great shock to many Old Collegians to see the death of Jean Woodward (McPhee). Jean spent her school days at Morongo, was Captain of Harris House and a School Prefect in 1947, the year she left school. After a two year course at " Invergowrie " she trained as a nurse at the Geelong Hospital and spent some time in the R.A.A.F. Nursing Services. She took her Midwifery Certificate at the Queen Victoria Hospital and went on to the Presbyterian Babies Home for her Infant Welfare training. After being some time a Sister at Kardinia House, Jean left for Western Australia where

she took charge of Infant Welfare Centres. She continued this work at Saiho and Wewak in New Guinea, and here met her husband. To Allan, her two little children, Ann and Keith, and to her family we extend our deepest sympathy. Another Old Collegian, Mrs. Stuart Henderson, died this year. As Jean McCurdy she was known to many of the earlier girls at Roslyn and Morongo. Jean was a quiet girl who spent three years at the School and was at the first assembly of Morongo on its present site. She married Stuart Henderson and for many years helped him with the management of Franks Book Store, first in Moorabool Street and then in Ryrie Street. Her husband predeceased her and to her son Warwick we extend our sympathy. NEWS AND NOTES Congratulations to Corinne Nicholas — she was Miss Geelong, 1968. Judith Heard was chosen as Chaperon to Miss Victoria and was overseas with her for three months. She also toured interstate with Miss Australia. Judith has interested herself in Spastic work for many years. Gerda Nicholson has been on T.V. and played Fiona Buckland in Bell Bird, as well as being in several " Homicide " series. She has left T.V. for the time being to return to the Stage with the Melbourne Theatre Company. Helen Swinton has been making a name for herself as an Air Hostess with TAA — no doubt she was very relieved that the " unexpected passenger " did not decide to arrive between Pert and Adelaide. Hostessing is not all routine it seems. A number of Old Collegians would have seen that excellent photo of Helen Gillies in the Herald during September — Helen is a great worker for the paraplegics so if anyone wishes to help this cause and does not know how to, get in touch with Helen at the Alfred. News of Margaret Mann from Edinburgh where she is training for her Page Seventy-One

Midwifery Certificate — of the fifteen girls in her group five are Australians — study occupies the first six months and the last six are mostly practical work. She sends her good wishes to her friends. Heather Scott and Janece Harvey are overseas and have toured Scotland and England. They plan to visit the Continent after working for a while, Heather as a Librarian and Janece teaching. At the Shepparton Annual Church Service Elizabeth Knox and her mother and a friend were present. Elizabeth, who has her private Pilot's Licence had flown down from Albury. Her licence is also endorsed for many Aerobatic sequences and she is now busy training for her Commercial Licence. Friends of Janet Archer (McIntyre) will be interested to hear she is living on a 4000 acre wheat and sheep property at Kukerin, W.A. She and her husband moved to the West in 1966 with "a number of Stud ewes, a sheep dog, horse and cat" to settle on the land. It really sounds pioneering! Heather McMillan (McDonald) has written from Wellington in New Zealand where she and her husband have settled. Heather is teaching at a training school where she has a class of 36 seven year olds to cope with. Helen Millikan is back from overseas and has taken a position at the Alfred. With Marjorie Fisher she toured Cornwall and Devon during February. Marjorie is still overseas and has spent three months with two other Australian nurses touring the Continent. In between trips she has been working at the Royal Marsden Hospital which is famous for Cancer Research. Nora Sutorious (Valk) revisited the School after an absence of 20 years — she has written her impressions for this magazine. Jan Dickson and Prue Hewitt have been House Mistresses with the Hermitage, while studying during the day at the Teachers' Training College. Merren Hurlston has been in residence at Girton C.E.G.G.S. in the same capacity during her final year at the Bendigo Teachers' Page Seventy-Two

College. She has been appointed to Cangupna, near Shepparton. Old Collegians on the School Staff this year include, Edith Leigh, Jean Rentoul, Barbara Webb, Margaret Henderson, Jan Bell, Frances Lewis, Leanne Chapman, Gwen Blakiston, Marleen Miller, Marie Kershaw. Kitty Patterson (McLennan) from Scotland was thrilled to be at the opening of the Lucy Shaw House in February. Kitty and her husband were on a visit to friends and relatives and were able to make many contacts while here. Sally Odgers is at the Training Centre in Hawthorn taking a Youth Leadership Course. Jenny Miles is in her second year and Joy Barber first year at the Alfred. Catherine and Cherry Walter are at the Royal Melbourne in first year. Allison Hutchins is enjoying life at Invergowrie; Jan Adams is studying Physical Education at the Melbourne University; Jane Urquhart, who is doing Optometry, Susanne Brown and Lyn McGregor both doing Arts, are all at St. Hilda's. Heather McGowan has been appointed Directress at the six year old Kindergarten, at Kangaroo Flat. Priscilla Connor (Head) and her husband Dr. Connor are working as missionaries for the Church of Scotland at the Nessie Knight Hospital at Sulenkama, Cape Province, South Africa. They have another eight months to serve before being furloughed. Janette Ockleston is still Air Hostessing with A.N.A., but Judy has decided to come back to terra firma and is finding life in a law office very interesting. MORONGO REVISITED AFTER 20 YEARS It was like a dream, I couldn't believe it was real. There I was staying at Morongo in my old room after more than 20 years — but now with husband and six year old daughter. Miss Shaw had invited us to stay at the School. It was exciting to relive the happy memories of school so vivid-

ly. Miss Shaw had invited Jenny Heath and her husband to join us for dinner the first evening and we ate in the Reception Room, where of course I had never been since the first day I arrived at Morongo with my father in 1945. The dinner was served by Evelyn, the first of several familiar faces I was to encounter in the next twenty four hours. For our daughter Tessa, Miss Shaw and Miss Rentoul had arranged a little party with the two youngest boarders, Fiona and Heather. Tessa was a little shy at first, but a little later was playing happily with them, but upon being sked if she would like to sleep with them . . . no that was a little too much. The next day there was a special assembly (being Tuesday there is normally no assembly) especially for us. I was very honoured by this and wished I could have done better when Miss Shaw asked me to say a few words. They were too few, I'm afraid. After assembly, Miss Shaw showed us all around the School. An old familiar face in the brand new kitchen was Cookie! How eerie to think it had been so long since my schooldays in uniform. It was lovely to be joined by Miss Botterill, Miss Evans, Miss Leigh and Miss Sutherland for morning coffee. They certainly have not changed one bit. We have. Meanwhile Tessa was well settled in the Junior School with Miss Courtney and spent the entire day with them and when it was time to leave, she would have gladly let us go without her, I think. (A future boarder, perhaps?). At lunchtime, we were invited to have dinner in the dining hall with Miss Shaw and the two hundred girls. My husband was the only man, so it was his turn to feel very honoured! His impressions of Morongo and Australia were very important to me. I wanted them to be good and indeed they were. If I remember correctly, he wrote this in Miss Shaw's guest book: " Here then is a precious instance in which the reality of a revisit surpassed memories treasured for over twenty years. Some School, some Principal." I am extreme-

ly thankful to everyone who helped in making this reunion such a tremendous success. I returned to Geelong the following week for the Annual Old Collegians' Luncheon at which I was asked to speak. (Well, let us not mention the talk). It was a thrill, despite my butterflies. I want to thank Jenny Heath in particular for arranging this opportunity and Mrs. Pavia for the lovely gift of a little bouquet of framed Australian wildflowers, from the Old Collegians' Association. Although at the time, like most boarders, I couldn't wait to leave school, I always have looked back with fond memories and now, I am only sorry I missed seeing some of my contemporaries, like Jill Cannon who returned from England the day after the reunion, June Baker, Dot Brownlees and a few others I could not get in touch with. Miss Shaw and Miss Rentoul, thank you, thank you again for making this visit so perfect." Nora Sutorious (Valk) Holland.

1970 AND ALL THAT!!! (with apologies!)

What does 1970 mean to you? If it means nothing at the moment then it should certainly mean something after you have read this! Morongo is celebrating its 50th year! Why don't you put this down in your engagements for a year ahead and make sure that you will take part in one or more of the very interesting celebrations that are being planned? When one is planning such an important event in the life of a school one has to plan well ahead so things are on the move already. There will be reunions, dinners, special assemblies, and many other things to interest both present and past pupils, parents and friends of the School. Also, and this is very exciting, there is to be a " History of Morongo " published, and when we say " history " we mean it. Two years research has been done by Mrs. Cowperthwaite (known to many as Miss Doreen Philips) and she has put together a most interesting book which most Old Collegians and present girls will want to keep. Its price will be within the reach of all, it will be liberally sprinkled with photos — most probably you will find yourself there either in picture or name, certainly by name if you are a financial member of the Old Collegians. It would be a tremendous assistance if you could indicate to us how many copies you would wish to have, for once the publication has run out, I am afraid you will be unlucky. Send your name and address and the number you require to Jean Rentoul, Morongo P.G. C., P.O. Box 17, Geelong — don't delay — do it now, you will surely regret it if you don't. Also, rummage around in the " attic " and pick out some of those priceless gems of photos — we do want to have an " Art Gallery " for you to wander through. Send them along to the same address when you have found them — they will be well looked after and returned to you after the celebrations. Don't forget, 1970.

MELBOURNE BRANCH Annual Report, 1968 Once again the Melbourne Branch has had a busy and successful year. Helen Dunlop (Ferguson) made her home available for a garden party luncheon early in the year and Gwen McKay (Morgan) arranged a luncheon in October. The proceeds from these were added to the profit from our Cabaret Supper Dance and we have been able to give Morongo a cheque for $200. We changed our Buffet Supper Dance to a Cabaret this year and it was enjoyed by over 200 Old Collegians and friends. It has been decided to have another Cabaret Supper Dance in 1969 at No. Page Eighty-Five

9 Darling Street, on Friday, 21st March. Members of the committee will welcome any queries and will accept bookings for tables of 4, 6, 8, 10 or 12. We held our 2 reunions this year in new surroundings; the Tudor Room at the Victoria Hotel, which has proved to be a successful venue with no parking problems. We welcomed Miss Shaw and representatives from Geelong and were interested to hear the news from Morongo. Susanne Brown and Kathryn Maconachie have joined our committee and Joan Sutherland has retired. The Committee:— President: Lorna Hooper (Ebbott). Treasurer: Min Thompson (Harding). Secretary: Joan Swain (Pope). Elsie Bishop (Gough), Elaine Howden (Barber), Phyllis Orchard (David), Erica Potter, Faye Pope, Kathie Maconachie, Susanne Brown. We would like to thank all those who participated in any of our functions and hope that we will have your continued support next year. Joan Swain, Hon. Secretary.

WESTERN DISTRICT BRANCH Annual Report, 1968

I have much pleasure in presenting to you the Annual Report of the Morongo Old Collegians (Western District Branch) for 1968. In February Miss Shaw and Jenny Heath travelled to Colac for our Annual Church Parade held at St. Andrew's

Presbyterian Church, Colac, the service being conducted by Rev. W. B. Hastie. There was a very good attendance despite the fact that it was an extremely hot day. The service was followed by a luncheon after which Miss Shaw brought us up to date with news of the School's activities. The year has been very quiet for us but we were able to take part in many of the functions organised by the Geelong Branch. We should like to congratulate them upon the wonderful success of the fete they held in March and many of us were able to enjoy this day with them. Some of our members attended the reunion in November and thought the new programme of having the meeting before the luncheon a very good innovation and found it very convenient and more relaxing. There was only a small contingent present at the Mid-winter luncheon but we hope to remedy this next June. We are happy to report that we were able to contribute $50.00 towards the Joyce Alexander Memorial Scholarship and to send Miss Shaw a cheque for $90.00 for two chairs for the dining hall. In May Norma Clifford visited Miss Pratt and found her very interested still in hearing news of many of her past pupils. We are very sorry to hear that since then Miss Pratt has not been so well. Our best wishes to Deidre Permezel on the announcement of her engagement. Good wishes for the future to Dianne Gillespie (Carson) who married this year. Congratulations to Rhonda Wilson (Lang) and Margaret Jervis (Reddie) who welcomed little ones to their homes. Our sincere sympathy to Val Atkinson Grimshaw who has suffered the loss of a loved one. Our Annual meeting was held on the fifth of October, 1968 at St. Andrew's Sunday School Hall. A warm welcome was extended to Miss Shaw and Noelle Cook who had come from Geelong for the occasion. Miss Shaw took the chair for the election of office bearers which resulted as follows:—

President: Judy Gulbin, 77 Murray St., East Colac. Secretary: Lexie Stray, 143 Wilson St., Colac. Treasurer: Jessy Borwick, 5 Hesse St., Colac. In conclusion, I should like to say " Thank You " to all those who have assisted during the year. To Miss Shaw and representatives who travel from Geelong so willingly to attend our functions, we offer our grateful thanks. Judy Gulbin, President.

GOULBURN VALLEY BRANCH Annual Report, 1968 I have much pleasure in presenting the report of the Goulburn Valley Branch for 1968. Our Annual Church Service was again held early in March at St. Andrews, Shepparton. Miss Shaw and Jean Rentoul braved the heat to be with us for the service. After a refreshing cup of tea Miss Shaw spoke to us of some of the activities of Morongo. Two P.L.C. Old Collegians were also with us. Again this year the Annual Meeting was held at the Commodore in the form of a Luncheon and meeting to follow. Attendance was not good. The President of the Old Collegians, Mrs. Jennifer Heath and Caroline Blokkeerus came up from Geelong. Jennifer gave us lots of information of the Old Collegians activities for the following year then took the chair for the election of office bearers. President: Heather Lloyd (Laird). Vice-Presidents: Moira Pankhurst (Hildebrand) and Betty Thornton. Secretary: Barbara Ramage (Bradshaw). Treasurer: Gwen Jensen (Bradshaw). It was decided to combine the Church Service with the Annual Meeting in some way for next year trying to encourage more girls to come along. Sufficient money was raised to purchase a tea and coffee urn for the School dining room. A car load from Shepparton travelled to Geelong for the Annual Meeting and all enjoyed the day. Boxes of goods were sent back with Miss Shaw for the Annual Fete. This is my last report as President of the Branch. I have enjoyed my term of office very much and I wish Heather all the best for her term. I would like to thank all Old Collegians especially Presidents of Geelong Branch who have come to our re-unions

and been such a help. A big thank you to Miss Shaw for all her interest in our activities during the past years. May the interest we all have in Morongo remain as it is for many years to come.
