EDITORIAL 1.970

John Clare once wrote: " If life had a second edition, how I would correct the proofs". Will you be saying this? Unfortunately it is certain that the vast majority of people will answer in the affirmative. In fact, the few people who could look back at an almost perfect set of proofs, would be the type from which saints originate.

Considering life, ordinary life, as it stands, it immediately becomes obvious that an individual cannot avoid becoming entangled with (and influenced by) the surrounding people in his environment. It is from these that opinions will be' formed, morals will be taken and the general experiences of life gained. Although our length of eternity is a mere billionth of a second, the use we make of life and the values we take from these other people deserve careful consideration, for — fraction of a 'second that is — our life on earth presents a unique partide, an unsoiled grain, no matter who we are. It is up to us to make up our minds from this stage on whether or not we are going to value this life we are given; whether we can successfully make the most of it.

Making the most of life presents its own problems. There are innumerable obstacles to by-pass — trivial things, yet irritating enough to take on a distorted importance. Many — for example, jealousy, feelings of failure and inadequacy, intolerance, relate directly to human relationship, with emphasis on material possessions. It is regrettable that an individual, forgetting his own unique worth, tends to feel that the way to prove himself in

life is by accumulation of material proof-giving ' possessions. The individual here has forgotten that this is his one chance of life; in collecting material proof ' to substantiate his values he seems to have been unable to appreciate the full beauty of living and discovering the worth of his inner self. The fact that he is an individual who never has been, and never will be, created again has not been explored in sufficient depth to give him faith in his spiritual and unseen values.

The way in which life is approached and understood is of the greatest importance. It is no use getting upset, or jealous, or worrying what other people think of you. You have something which no-one else has: your very own self. Take comfort in this, no matter who you are and you will discover that finding the best points in life and making the most of what you have will come naturally.

good analogy to our lives is a candle: lit at birth, burnt or snuffed out by death. In between is the endless wick trimming, the continuous stream of waxy globules, which symbolise relationships and experiences with life. Perhaps a lamp with its single flame holds more significance for Morongo girls. But small matter in such analysis; the issue at hand — from birth till death — is the understanding we have of life. Cherish this one chance. It is up to you to give your first edition of life a set of proofs worth keeping afterwards. A

MY LAST WORD TO YOU ALL —

In the 1969 issue of the Lucernian I wrote a special Jubilee Message but I should like a word with you as I now prepare to leave the School world and become a private citizen.

I am not sure how many girls I have accepted for enrolment at Morongo during the past twenty-nine years, but the numbers would I believe, run into thousands. I hope I am right in claiming that I always tried to make you feel that you were not just a number on the roll, but that you counted as an individual, that you had some definite contribution to make, however unimportant you considered this to be. When Sir Francis Rolland dedicated the Gertrude Pratt Hall, he reminded the girls of the day, that each one had something quite unique to offer, that she and no one else could possibly contribute. I remind you all of this challenge. If you make honest use of your talents and your interests you will find that you are able to lead a full and rich and satisfying life.

You are all part of a Community in which those in authority are trying hard to bring out the best in every single one of you. I confess that it is not easy to convince everyone that this is so. It is our constant hope that as a member of the school community you will accept and live up to the standards expected of you, that you will not ask " What are my rights, what are my privileges?" but rather " What is my duty?" You will show signs of growing in maturity when you accept the full responsibility of yourselves — working honestly and 'playing hard without being constantly watched.

in one word. Basically there may not be essential differences, but the changes of the modern world have left their mark on so many. In the more leisurely days in a school with fewer girls, there was, I think, more thought, more responsibility for °triers, there was greaterjoy in simple pleasures, more interest in Clubs and Societies. I look back to those days with some nostalgia, but tell myself that the great pressures from all sides, the fierce competition of the world, have forced their way and already made themselves felt in the School itself. These lead naturally perhaps, but not inevitably, to turning the thoughts of girls more towards themselves and their requirements, and seem to leave them little time and energy for wider interests. This is sad, for many of you miss so much that would be of great value, maybe even of consolation in later life. I think I previously said that the present generation unfortunately tends to look for more so-called sophisticated pleasures and many are apt to be content to become mere spectators rather than active participants. However, generalisations are always dangerous, so I hasten to pay my sincere tribute to all those girls who over past and present years have taken full part as leaders or as workers in school affairs, giving as well as getting, thereby increasing in stature. They have played a worthy and important part in the life and the development of Morongo. My thoughts will constantly be with you in the days to come. It never fails to give me great pleasure and not a little pride to hear of the happiness and the success of my girls in many spheres, whether as homemakers or as workers in the larger world, but my cherished hope is, that as you make your impact upon the world, you will bear the hallmark of graciousness. I leave this thought with you as I bid you farewell.

I have often been asked whether I have noticed many changes in the girls of the day. This is not easy to answer Page Nine

Lucy Shaw.


In Appreciation to Miss Lucy Shaw, M.B.E., B.A., M.A.C.E. Principal — 1942 - 1970.

FROM THE COUNCIL No words can express the debt due by Morongo to Miss Lucy Shaw, who will retire as Principal at the end of the year, after 29 years' service in that position. The Council has always had unbounded admiration for Miss Shaw and for the intense dedication, wisdom, graciousness and diplomacy, and common sense which Miss Shaw has shown in carrying out her onerous duties. The success of the School and its growth during the last 29 years are undoubtedly due to Miss Shaw's outstanding leadership, and Morongo will sorely miss her.

FROM THE STAFF Morongo has on many occasions been called a fortunate School. This term has been used with reference to its surroundings, buildings and amenities, all of which reflect the vision and generosity of its Council; but, beyond all these, Morongo has been fortunate in the women who have been its two Headmistresses. Tribute has been paid to the work of Miss Pratt, but until now there has been little opportunity of expressing the gratitude and appreciation due to Miss Shaw for what she has given to the School. Members of Staff who have taught at Morongo know Miss Shaw as a leader worthy of respect and as a friend worthy of affection. They know that she has a strong sense of loyalty to her Staff, that she is always approachable, and is ready to listen to suggestions and try out new ideas which seem interesting or useful. Miss Shaw has the gift of maintaining final authority without being dictatorial; she is never at a loss when

confronted by the many emergencies of school life and has a saving sense of humour, invaluable to her and relished by her Staff. Miss Shaw's deep interest in girls: their background, their health, their attitudes and manners and, of course, their work, is characteristic of a great Headmistress. Morongo may indeed count itself fortunate in having a Principal who has served the School so well.

FROM THE GIRLS The great schools of the world are frequently and justly identified with their notable principals, because an independent school reflects the characters and ideals of its leader. Morongo is very much the projection of the visions and ideals of Miss Shaw. The foundation she built on was laid by Miss Pratt, and the future of the School will be based on what Miss Shaw has done. No one has to wait to see Miss Shaw's period of office in perspective, because the evidence is all around us, and, in the minds of many people, Miss Shaw and Morongo will always be synonomous. This cannot, therefore, be written as a " farewell " to Miss Shaw, because she leaves so much of herself in Morongo and its pupils, both past and present, that her influence can never be entirely lost. And yet, in a more immediate and personal way, we shall all miss her as a friend whose Sympathetic guidance and interest have been a source of encouragement during our years as pupils of Morongo.

girls; thousands of miles and thousands of hours of selfless giving of time and thought have contributed greatly to the close association of Old Collegians and their School.

FROM THE OLD COLLEGIANS

" Sint Lucernae Ardentes "

God grant our light so shine That henceforth the flame of our teaching Far through the centuries reaching, Stand for a sign.

Today we pay tribute to Miss Lucy Shaw who has nurtured this flame over a period of twenty-nine years, with dedication and ability, so that Morongo and its girls, past and present, do truly " stand for a sign ".

To lead a school successfully in these changing and challenging times is difficult. Years of war brought extra tension and responsibility, and years of peace bring their own problems. Big schools are now big business, but to direct a school successfully does not only require business acumen — and the ability to attract good staff — a school must also preserve its soul, and through the dedication of its Head Mistress, Morongo has continued to grow not only in terms of the number of girls and buildings, but in this special area which is so important in any school, and in particular a Church School.

Much is required of a Principal, but Miss Shaw has demanded of herself far more than would ever be required. She has placed her mark on Education in this State and beyond, and her great interest in the affairs of her Old Collegians Associations will be remembered with deep gratitude.

She has travelled to the four corners of the state and beyond to bring a message from the School to its old

During this long and close contact there are many girls who while at school respected and admired their " Head " but who now have as well a deep affection for Miss Shaw as a friend.

Morongo is written on her heart, and her name is held lovingly by girls of the school both present and past.

To guide a school over a period of twenty-nine years requires talents far beyond normal capacity. Wisdom, strength, courage, unselfishness and humility — all these talents have been used to the fullest extent by Miss Shaw, but overlying them all has been a deep conviction of the requirements of a Church School, a firm faith, and a due reverence for God.

Poets may use the English language to more eloquent advantage, but no one can speak with more sincerity than the girls who have been brought under her influence.

We thank you Miss Shaw for tending the lamp so devotedly, and increasing its light so that its rays have shed not only on the School but over the wider area of life.

We wish you many years of peaceful enjoyment of more personal pursuits, and with these wishes go the warmest affection of thousands of girls. " Inspired with love and holy fear And pledged to high endeavour."

COUNCIL NOTES

Name Although the name "Morongo " has been used in connection with the School ever since the move to Bell Post Hill, the official name of the School in the constitution has always been, " Presbyterian Girls' College ". During the year, the Council resolved to alter the constitution so that the name of the School is now " Morongo Presbyterian Girls' College ".

Jubilee The Council members were delighted with the success of the jubilee celebrations. All the functions and events were well attended, and the weather conditions were eminently suitable. The Council is very grateful for the assistance given by a large number of people, including members of staff, Old Collegians and parents and friends of the School. The Council is arranging for an album of photographs of the celebrations to be prepared and kept in the School archives.

Principal The Council wishes to record its thanks to Miss Shaw and her staff for another fine year of educational achievement. At the end of the " Shaw era ", the Council looks back with pride at the first fifty years, and at the same time looks forward to the future with confidence. The Council sought applications for the position of Principal for 1971, and was delighted to be able to appoint Miss Dulcie Brookshaw from Shelford C.E. G.G.S. Miss Brookshaw's teaching and administration experience, and her fine personal qualities, will enable her to maintain the high standards achieved by the School in the past.

Property During the year, the nursery property in Newtown was sold, and part of the building moved to Morongo, for use as a craft room. An extension is to be built to the Junior School to accomodate the nursery children, and it is hoped that this will be ready for the beginning of the 1971 school year. Renovations were carried ouc to the front of the house, and numerous other minor improvements were also completed during the year.

SCHOOL NOTES The First Assembly this year was held on February 4th, and the girls were addressed by Mrs. Pavia and Mr. McCann. At this assembly we were introduced to several new members of Staff, Miss Odgers, Miss Falkenstein, Miss Jameison, Mrs. Cook, Miss Matheson, Miss May, Miss McMahon and Miss Hodgins. Unfortunately three members of Staff had to leave at the end of First Term. These were Mrs. Service, Mrs. Grabovszky and Miss McMahon. At the beginning of Second Term we were pleased to welcome to the Staff Miss Forster, Mrs. Maddever, Mrs. Pateman, Mr. Crunden, Mr. Robbins, Mr. McAvaney and Mrs. Champness. We also lost two members of Staff during Second Term, Miss Hodgins and Mr. Crunden. Once again with the increasing numbers in the School we have had extra rooms added. The girls are extremely grateful to the Council for their constant consideration to our needs and their advice in the development of our modern surroundings. Our thanks go to the Staff for their help and guidance throughout the year. We wish all those members of Staff who are leaving every success in their new positions and to those returning we wish a happy and interesting year in 1971.

REPORTS


prefects from Clyde, Geelong Grammar, The Geelong College and The Hermitage, and we discussed ways in which the schools could participate in extra curricular activities. Arising from this, two debating contests were held in second term between The Geelong College, The Hermitage and ourselves. Unfortunately neither Clyde nor Geelong Grammar could participate. The Prefects were also invited to The Hermitage, Geelong Grammar and The Geelong College dances which were all very successful. The School Church Service was held on Sunday, I I th October at St. David's. The Rev. Waters, the School Chaplain, delivered the address while the two readings were presented by Deidre Hookings and myself.

HEAD PREFECT Judith Clutterbuck.

THE HEAD PREFECT'S REPORT The second Fifty Years of the School was inaugurated at the beginning of this year with a weekend of celebrations held in Geelong. The celebrations began with a Special School Assembly held in the Gertrude Pratt Hall on Friday, 20th of February. At this assembly the prefects, Judith Clutterbuck (Head Prefect), Cathy Graham, Deidre Hookings (Head of the House), Thais Horne, Heather McKewan, Sue Menzies and Jan Rhodes, were installed by the School Chaplain, the Rev. R. Waters. The celebrations continued on Friday evening when the Jubilee Dinner was held, followed by the Old Collegians' Luncheon and Jubilee Garden Party the next day. Here parents, friends and old collegians had the opportunity of walking around the School and inspecting the progress that has been made in the last fifty years. The celebrations concluded with a Jubilee Church Service on Sunday, 22nd February and a Jubilee concert on March 6th.

A new idea introduced into the Matriculation Expression Course this year was a group discussion with the Sixth Form of The Geelong College. This afternoon was found to be extremely enjoyable and interesting to those who attended. This year has been one of the most eventful in Morongo's history but it was with great regret that we heard of Miss Shaw's retirement. Those girls who have had the experience of attending school under her, realize just how much they owe to Miss Shaw, and I am sure both past and present pupils would like to thank her for her long and unfailing service to the School. The girls and myself are most grateful for her help and encouragement this year and we wish her a happy retirement. I should also like to thank the members of Staff, Prefects and Matriculation girls for their help throughout the year. I wish all those returning to school next year good luck and I am sure the girls will be helpful and friendly to the new headmistress, Miss Brookshaw.

The prefects attended a five schools meeting on 1st March. Here we met Page Fourteen

ART REPORT The seniors made a promising start to the year with Miss Hodgins and we were sorry to say goodbye to her early in second term. We are very fortunate to have Mrs. Pateman to take her place. This year, once again, the art students have been very busy. The Sub-Intermediates have been working with colour and texture in different media, in both two and three dimensions, and developing sketching skills. For the Intermediates different types of work with fabrics, dyes and sculpture with wire and plaster were added to these activities. Girls have gained a feeling for the appropriateness of materials to their use, and a response to colour, form and design. With Mrs. Pateman, Leaving and Matriculation have practised painting and drawing in various forms as well as creating interesting batiks, wall hangings, lino cuts and celluloid etchings. There is always much activity in the junior art room with Miss Philip. Second form work has featured lino cuts and colourful paper weaving. Among individual projects the great rhombicasidodecahedron is worthy of special mention. The Removes have also

enjoyed paper weaving as well as marble painting. Their special project has been the painting of Ned Kelly and other murals in the " New Wing ". Grade six has found scope for selfexpression in paper-mache and plenty of clay. They have also made film slides and written and illustrated a poetry book. Under Mrs. Egan's guidance the fifth grade girls have found intense creative satisfaction in making and doing. They have experimented enthusiastically with varied artistic activities and proudly displayed their creations in their formroom. This year great improvements have been made to the plumbing in both art rooms. Hot water has been added to the Senior Art Room and, with the connection of hot and cold water and a sink to the Junior Art Room, the coloured lakes outside have subsided. Mrs. Pateman has kindly taken several Matriculation girls sketching and Leaving girls have gone on an excursion to Coombe Down Galleries. Miss Philip has taken two Matriculation girls to Melbourne to Observe architecture and the whole Matriculation art class to see the Corio Whisky prize-winner's entry. Bendigo was also visited for a day of lectures by the examiners. Through practical activities the girls have gained a sense of achievement which can energize the rest of their work. The wide range covered in art has encouraged greater individuality of expression with a large variety of responses to different media. As with all the divergent branches of aesthetic training there is the advantage of grappling with a problem in a practical situation and of learning from the discipline of the material, which is different from the discipline imposed by a teacher. However, there is still room for simple enjoyment and lighthearted experiments which are not regarded as tragedies if they go wrong. Our thanks go to Miss Philip and Mrs. Pateman for their help and encouragement during the year. Ellen Thom Judith Thomson Elizabeth Davidson.

FORUM REPORT Held every Monday lunchtime Forum involves a range of girls from Intermediate to Matriculation — namely the Prefects, Social Service Representative, House Office-Bearers and Form Captains, presided over by Miss Shaw and Miss Sutherland. Discussion generally revolved around School activities. The girls were made free to express any ideas towards improvements, on systems such as ground tidiness and tuckshop routine, or, to suggest new movements. Preparations for activities such as the School Dance were also discussed. Throughout the year much attention was devoted to the behaviour of the School, with attitude and appearance under especially close scrutiny. Records of past events were taken down, including of course, the many special Jubilee events. Forum members were always the first to be told of such things as the introduction of an award to girls who have helped in house activities with meritous enthusiasm. Much thanks must go to Miss Shaw and Miss Sutherland who showed continual interest in all activities and who, as always, supplied the presence of an ever-steady hand of guidance.

Thais Horne. DRESSMAKING REPORT This year, there has been a varied range of garments made, such as lingerie, suits, coats, beach dresses and frocks. As well as sewing there were embroidered articles to make and a file to keep up-to-date. Due to the Dressmaking Course, which has been altered, the fifth form students made a dress in two weeks by themselves as a final examination. During the year, the fifth form Dressmaking students went on excursions to Melbourne, to see a Tapestry Display at ' Georges ' and to a Mannequin Parade at the Gordon Institute of Technolgy. Hobbies Day was on the 1 1 th of November. Each girl had to model at least two of the garments she had made during the year. In closing I should like to thank Mrs.

Webb for her continual guidance and assistance throughout the year. Carolyn Trewin. FRENCH REPORT This year has been a very active one for senior French students. With increasing emphasis being placed on the aural and oral aspects of French, Miss Botterill has encouraged the use of Morongo's extensive library of French tapes and records. The weekly broadcasts have also been beneficial. On Friday, 24th July, Miss Botterill took the sixth form class to see an excellent production of Jean Anouilh's play " Antigone " at the Geelong .College. During the September holidays, eleven sixth form girls attended a Higher School Certificate French course at Monash University. This was of great benefit as well as being very enjoyable. About one hundred and fifty students from all over Victoria took part, and the course included lectures on the set texts, conversation classes, lectures on grammar, dictation, translation and pronunciation, and three language laboratory sessions. The students lived in at North-East Halls for the two days and a French film was shown on the second night. The Alliance Francaise examinations were held at The Hermitage on Saturday, 8th August, and the results gained were very pleasing. The annual French Schools' Night on 25th September was attended by fifth and sixth form girls. We thank Miss Botterill, Miss Forster and Miss Evans for their untiring enthusiasm and hard work, and wish all girls studying French next year the best of luck. Margaret Scott.

LIBRARY COMMITTEE Librarian: Susan Chettle. Page Seventeen


LIBRARY REPORT This year, the library has been run very efficiently under the guidance of Mrs. Clarke. A number of alterations has been made to the appearance and organization or the library: tables have been re-arranged to enable easier access to the shelves and to provide greater space. Our library has accumulated many new magazines and books throughout the year. Approximately 300 books have been added to the shelves, with book gifts donated by various people. The library contains very many useful and worthwhile books, and I should encourage all girls to use the library to a much greater extent than they do at present. I should like to thank those who have donated books this year, either fact or fiction, and I am sure they will be greatly appreciated. It is gratifying to report that the girls in certain forms are showing an increased awareness of the library facilities, and the number of borrowers con-

tinues to grow. It is a matter of concern, however, that some girls continue to take books from the library without observing the library rules. In so doing, they are depriving other girls of the opportunity to read the books which are not returned punctually. During the first term, representatives of The Geelong College and Morongo Library Committees, accompanied by Mrs. Clarke and Mrs. Wood, attended a Children's Book Council of Victoria meeting in Melbourne. We all found the evening valuable and interesting, and the talks given were very stimulating and thought-provoking. In second term, a discussion evening was held at Geelong College. Students from Morongo, The Hermitage, The Geelong College and Geelong Grammar gave reports on books studied in Matriculation English this year, and this proved to be a helpful and entertaining evening. A similar library meeting was planned for third term, but unfortunately, certain circumstances prevented it from eventuating. Instead, an allday seminar was held at Geelong Grammar, on Saturday, 26th September. This provided an opportunity for students to discuss various books which were on the English Expression and Literature syllabuses, resulting in a very enjoyable and profitable day. Again, this year, all girls in P.5, P.6, Forms 1 and 2 are given regular library lessons. In these periods, the girls learn both how the library works and how books can give pleasure, and help in school work. It is hoped that the progress and interest shown in the library throughout the year will continue, and be even greater during 1971. The work of the library committee throughout the year has been much appreciated, and I thank them for their help and support. Finally, on behalf of the committee members and all girls, I extend my gratitude to Mrs. Clarke for her unfailing enthusiasm and time which she so freely devotes to the affairs of the library. Sue Chettle.

P.F.A. REPORT Running an organization such as the P.F.A. from 'a boarder's point of view is no easy task because one is limited in what exactly may be done. However I am pleased to report that the activities carried out were very popular and well supported by the general body of the P.F.A. Once again the Junior and Senior P.F.A's went their own separate ways. Office-Bearers elected at the close of 1969 were: Junior P.F.A.: President: Anne Chirnside; Vice-President: Noni Notman; Secretary, Claire Bourke; Treasurer, Sue Dale; Committee, Jill Fraser, Cathy Brewster, Jenny Gunn, Ros Woodburn. Junior P.F.A. Report: We have had various guest speakers including Mr. Ray Reardon, a member of Alcoholics Anonymous; and Mrs. Beckett, a probation officer who spoke to us about her job. Other meetings have been taken up with discussion, helped expertly by Miss Wilson to whom we owe a great deal. A coffee night was arranged for boarders and was most successful. A barbecue has been planned for the end of term. Junior P.F.A. has also been visiting Grace McKellar Home, where five or six girls have helped with the Church service, wheeling the patients to and from the Church. In giving pleasure to these old people the girls feel they are doing a small service for the community. Anne Chirnside, President. Senior P.F.A.: President, Thais Horne; Vice-President, Vivien May; Secretary, Margaret McCann; Treasurer, Julie Williamson; Committee: Prue Chapman, Ann Rummans, Prue Lamont, Jocelyn Brown and Nanette Smibert. Senior P.F.A. Report: A busload of girls spent an interesting Sunday in Melbourne, first listening to a multi-lingual service at The Church of All Nations, then lunching at Rolland House. The afternoon was comprised of a visit to a Spanish immigrant's highrise flat, and an informative talk on Melbourne youth by the minister of the Sunshine Methodist Church. It was only through Miss Wilson's efficient organization that such a day was thoroughly enjoyed by all.

Miss Wilson, in fact, was also invaluable for our Lamington Drive — a delicious success — providing an endless scource of 'organization' knowlidge and encouragement. I should advise the 1971 P.F.A. to try a similar drive — the boarders provide excellent customers. Scattered meetings ensured that all members were kept in touch of fund raising efforts. Newspapers were sold in hundred weights to groceries, a rug of knitted squares begun, and Christmas Church of All cards in aid of the Nations sold. A ' hunger tea ' is planned for the end of the year, in which money for a normal meal is donated to the Christmas Bowl Appeal whilst the lean (?) boarders subsist on the equivalent of a meal in an underprivileged country. I feel that the P.F.A. as a body cannot over-express their gratitude to Miss Wilson. Always willing to help, and full of many suggestions. I myself, as president, express a special thanks. I also thank my committee and most especially my right-hand man secretary, Margie McCann, who proved invaluable. In closing I wish the 1971 P.F.A. every success, and hope they make use of the opportunities proffered to help others — for there are many if one cares to seek — and to keep the Christian spirit out in front. Thais Horne, President.

MUSIC REPORT, 1970 This year, music-wise, has been even busier than previous years, particularly with the celebration of the School's jubilee. A highlight of these celebrations was the gift of a Wurlitzer organ

Both choirs this year have been extremely active. On February 20th, the School attended a special Jubilee Assembly in the Gertrude Pratt Hall, at which the choir led the singing and sang an anthem. Then, on March 6th, the Jubilee Concert was held in the Hall, the entertainment including items from various girls' groups and the Old Collegians. On April 5th the Senior Choir was invited to Colac to lead the singing at the Annual Church Service of the Western District Branch of the Old Collegians. In third term the choir participated in a concert with boys from The Geelong College, at Morrison Hall, singing " Come Ye Sons of Art ", by Purcell, and the Gilbert and Sullivan operetta, " Trial by Jury " Concurrently with the concert, the School choir had been busy preparing for the Annual School Church Service held on October 1 1 th. This year the Four Schools' Concert was held at Geelong Grammar School, where the junior and senior choirs, as well as the recorder group, presented items. Once again the choir sang " Come Ye Sons of Art " with the College boys. As usual, the annual House Music Competitions were very successful. Each house choir sang an anthem and a song from a musical, and each house presented an instrumental soloist, an instrumental ensemble and a folk group. Although many girls are learning the piano or the guitar, not many have established an interest in other instruments, and we did not have enough members to form an orchestra

from the Old Collegians. The organ has certainly proved itself a great asset, being used for assemblies, boarders' prayers and for several keyboard demonstrations.

this year, although it was pleasing to see the variety and high standard in the house instrumental groups. Congratulations go to Lawson, who deserved first place, and to the winners of the individual sections. I hope that all the houses took particular note of Mrs. Martinez's criticism and we thank her for so kindly accepting the hard task of adjudication. The Boarders' Music Competitions were also held in Second Term. The six houses each presented a choir which prepared a humorous and a serious song, a skit and a folk group. We are very grateful to Mrs. McNeil for her capable adjudication, and congratulations go to Pettitt for winning the music competitions for the first time. The boarders also held a folk concert which ended on an appropriate note with a song sung in unison by all. Once again, girls have attended the Celebrity Concerts held at the Plaza Theatre in Geelong. The girls from forms one and two were also taken to an A.B.C. Orchestral Concert presented by the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. Although we have been extremely busy this year, the girls have certainly enjoyed participating in the various musical activities. These would not have been possible without the endless work that Miss Habersberger has done. On behalf of the School I thank her sincerely for her continued guidance and encouragement. I should also like to wish Miss Shaw a most enjoyable retirement and I hope that she will continue her unfailing interest in the musical activities of the School. Alison Kirkpatrick. Page Twenty


SHAKESPEARE DAY The 1970 Shakespeare Day on the 5th of May was an important step in the improvement of school productions. It was different from other years in many ways and the changes made resulted in an interesting experience for both the actresses and the audience. Instead of the tradition of each senior form producing one or two scenes from a number of Shakespearean plays, it was decided that a single play would be better as the story would be less difficult to follow and greater unity in production could be created. " The Taming of the Shrew " was chosen, abridged and arranged in ten scenes. The cast was taken from a large number of fifth and sixth form girls by Mrs. Thompson and was: Baptista, Judith Clutterbuck; Vincentio, Susan Henshaw; Lucentio, Deborah Richards; Petruchio, Faye Donnan; Gremio, Margaret Scott; Hortensio, Katrina Watson; Tranio, Heather McKewan; Biondello, Margaret McLean; Grumio Jan Waters; Curtis, Jacki Connor; Pedant, Ruth Sweetman; Katharina, Penelope Wilson; Bianca, Merrilyn Julian; Widow, Elizabeth Davidson; Tailor, Alison Kirkpatrick, Haberdasher, Rosemary Flanders; Officer and servant, Wendy Katz.

Costumes were designed to fit in with the time and atmosphere of the play, and were off-set by backdrops painted in grey, charcoal, and shades of blue, by Miss Philip and several girls. Special attention was paid to lighting and simple props in keeping with the modern ideas in Shakespearean production. This year the extra time required for rehearsals made it necessary to change the day from Shakespeare's birthday on 24th April to 5th May. The play was presented again on 9th June for the parents. It was a most enthusiastic production, involving people from all parts of the School. Besides actresses, dress makers, hairdressers, artists and stage hands were required. Page Twenty-One


Special thanks go to Miss May, the producer of the play, for her attentive guidance. Miss Philip must also be thanked for her invaluable help with lighting, costumes and sets and above all as stage-manager. All the girls involved also appreciate the work done by Mrs. Deller, and Mrs. Mackinnon and the staff who acted as dressmakers and make-up advisors. Thanks also go

to the senior girls who helped as stageassistants. I hope Shakespeare Day, 1971 will be as successful, and for those who do not act, remember that there are many other jobs to do which are just as much fun. What is required is unfailing enthusiasm and much hard work with everyone co-operating.

TRIAL BY JURY On the 8th and 9th October Morongo Senior Choir took part in the annual College Concert. The first section of the singing was the cantata " Come Ye Sons of Art " accompanied by the College Band and the second half of the programme consisted of a production of Gilbert and Sullivan's " Trial by Jury " Practices began early in second term and major parts were soon allotted. Merrilyn Julien was chosen to be the dride, sueing her reluctant husband tobe for breach of promise. Alison Kirkpatrick, Margaret Scott, Sue Henshaw and Ruth Sweetman trilled the part of the bridesmaids and the rest of the choir composed the general public. The male roles were taken by John Weddell as the " great Judge ", David

Sutton the Usher, Fred Soon the Understanding Council and Doug Silke the heartless defendant. Mr. Mahar, our producer, decided upon an unconventional performance and chose modern costumes and an original setting. The girls dressed in midi skirts and the boys wore jeans. Slides were continually flashed above the Judge's head subtly portraying his inner mind. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed participating in the two performances and we are grateful to Mr. Martin who controlled the singing and conducting and to Mr. Mahar, and the boys who helped with the scenery and lighting. Also our thanks go to Mr. Jenkins who patiently trucked the boarders to and from the College for practices. Margaret McCann.

SOCIAL SERVICE REPORT The various fund-raising and practical activities which have gone on throughout the year have shown the enthusiasm of the girls. Continued visits have been made every second Sunday by Boarders to The Grace McKellar Home. These visits have been much appreciated by the elderly people, as some rarely have visitors. The girls have not been careful about tearing stamps off their letters, for there should have been at least three hundred each week from boarders alone. This is one aspect of our social service which is sadly lacking. However we were able to send away some parcels of stamps to the Women of the University. We were pleased that one hundred Aboriginal badges were sold so readily. This may have been because some girls have been to Central Australia and have seen the conditions that prevail there. A Folk concert was held by the Boarders during first term and was organized by Heather McKewan. Fifteen dollars was saised from this enjoyable concert. Fetes, as usual, have been a great success and I congratulate Social Service Representatives on their enthusiasm and help during their term of office. A good respose to the appeal for partly-worn clothes for the "Save the Children" Fund pleased the Women of the University as we sent 170 garments to them. The two outstanding events of the year were a runathon and a spellathon held by P5 and P6. They raised over $300 between them and this won the admiration of the Senior classes of the School. Some of this money will help in the training of a Guide Dog for the Blind. A " Trikathon " which was run by Leaving P, was also most successful. I have found that my work has not been difficult because everyone has

been so helpful and I hope the same enthusiasm will be shown towards the Social Service Representative in 1971. My task has been made much easier with help from Miss Leigh who copes with the money, and my thanks go especially to Miss Evans , and Miss Steere, who gave up their spare time so willingly to help others.

THE ' CENTRE ' BECKONS Seeing the horizon of the ' Red Centre ' diminish beneath us, we could only remember the enjoyment and fulfilment of the preceding days. Reminiscing was to be the key note for the remainder of the journey . . The memories were coming to life again — Ayers Rock, Glen Helen Gorge, Pungalunga Gorge, Mt. Olga, the township of Alice Springs, Ormiston Gorge, Hermannsberg Mission and Palm Valley. " Euro ", our four-wheel drive bus, lived up to the expectations of the driver, although the party was quite dubious and unsure at the start. We travelled the expanse of ground from Alice Springs to Ayers Rock which, on arrival, proved to be the most fascinating and startling aspect of our journey. Touring the base of the Rock with Vin, alias the bus-driver and guide, we learnt of the varied history and mythology of the aborigines. Being the great explorers that we were, the ascent of the Rock seemed a trifle to us — would you believe? The excursion to Mount Olga (20 miles from the Rock) proved tiring but fun. Our hosts at Ayers Rock Chalet had packed a picnic lunch for us which was welcome after our trek to the

Page Twenty-Four


Valley of the Winds. We were disappointed at leaving the Chalet and the wonderful hosts, but we felt that better things were still to. come. And so they did . . . Our trip to Glen Helen Gorge was much shorter but offered just as much entertainment. The sunny days were taken advantage of by swimming enthusiasts, some girls swimming morning, noon and night. From Glen Helen we moved on to Palm Valley, the last lap of our journey. It was a surprising place due to the lush vegetation in the midst of the dry ' Centre '. The climax of our visit was the impressive singing of the Hermannsberg Choir. The mission is run by the Lutheran Church and these skilled aborigines make crafts to sell to the tourists. The final trip back to Alice Springs, although a little sad, was terminated with a barbecue and a " sing-song " around the camp fire. However, the trip would not have been complete without the hearty fun given by the members of staff, Miss Henderson and Miss Mitchell, and we should like to express our gratitude to them. Ann Harrison, Sheridan Browne, Deidre Hookings.

team of 46 competitor's spent an exhilerating morning and it is pleasing to note that despite our short training course we proved to be the stronger team.

SCHOOL SPORTS CAPTAIN Catherine Graham.

SPORTS REPORT, 1970 The year of sport has been one of interest and enthusiasm resulting from the coaching and assistance of our two new sports mistresses, Miss Odgers and Miss Falkenstein. The swimming season began quite early in first term with the Annual Inter-House Swimming Sports on 9th March. The winning house, Ardens, is to be commended on its fine victory. The following Saturday 26 girls competed in the Geelong Inter-Schools Swimming Sports and with strong swimming managed to gain second place. The end of the swimming season was marked by the Inter-Schools Swimming Sports held the next Saturday at the Melbourne Olympic Pool. Morongo gained fifth place. Immediately after the swimming season closed training towards Athletics Day — 19th April — commenced. The general standard of competition was good. Marching, the highlight of the day, commemorated the Jubilee. Roslyn, the overall winner, is to be congratulated for its winning style. During third term the athletic spirit was renewed with the team that travelled to Melbourne to compete against Lauriston Girls Grammar School. The

Despite Jubilee celebrations team practices managed to begin fairly well on time. I should like to thank the captains for their strong leadership and for setting a well followed example of sportsmanship displayed when playing against the other schools. It is my pleasure to congratulate the following teams for gaining premierships during the year: Senior C Baseball, Sub-Junior A Baseball, SubJunior A Tennis, Sub-Junior B Basketball and Senior C Hockey. Social games were also played: hockey against Geelong Grammar and Geelong College; basketball against Sacred Heart and the Geelong Teachers' College; and matches against Clyde. Inter-House matches were played during the last two terms, and all the successful premiers are to be congratulated on their efforts. Throughout third term inter-form basketball matches were played. The most successful Junior form was 3L and the Winning Senior form was 4L. Boarders enjoyed extra activity in the form of Boarders' Sport. A new plan was devised in third term in which every girl has to gain ten points per week for her house by reaching a certain standard in sport. Also much amusement and enjoyment was gained from the annual " Mini-Aths " held between the six boarding houses. For those who wished there were the usual coaching lessons in swimming and tennis and the more specialized sports of golf and fencing. An enthusiastic class of gymnasts, taught by Miss Odgers, began during second term. They put much effort into preparations for a Hobbies Day display. As the hotter months approached so did the tennis championships. These matches are left until last so as not to coincide with other sporting activities. The successful champions are to be congratulated for winning their respective divisions.

Every year a privileged few gain the highest school sporting award — School Colours. This year they were given to three girls: Deidre Hookings, Fiona Heard and Cathy Graham to whom I extend my congratulations. I should like to take this opportunity to thank both the Boarding and School house officials, most of all the sports captains, who have supported me throughout the year and who have given me much-needed assistance. Having covered the 1970 sporting activities I wish now to thank all those who gave up so much of their time for our benefit. As always Miss Shaw and the Council have been behind us in providing the means to play sport and the encouragement to nurture sportsmanship. The members of staff, of course, proved an asset on days when judging was necessary but the members of staff I should like to thank most are Miss Rentoul, for her assistance in feeding the hungry sports-women, and the two sports-mistresses, Miss Odgers and Miss Falkenstein, who have offered me invaluable assistance and guidance throughout the year. In conclusion I wish all those returning a successful year, one filled with as much activity as I have experienced. Remember: keep the lantern of good sportsmanship and fair play burning brightly in the years to come. Cathy Graham.

ATHLETICS REPORT We were fortunate enough to have fine weather this year for our Jubilee athletic sports, held on the 18th April. As part of the Jubilee functions a barbecue lunch was held and this was well attended by parents, friends and Old Collegians. 1 raining began soon after the swimming season had finished, and high standards in all fields were reached. A different marching display, including a formation of the letters M-O-RO-N-G-O was very impressive and our congratulations go to Harris who won the Venters shield for marching. Roslyn is to be commended for winning the Margaret Shannon cup for the first time in five years. The final results of the sports were: Roslyn 3971, Harris 3251, Lawson 2951, Venters 258, Ardens 2011. Individual championship awards went to Christine Riley, Sub-junior; Lyn MacLeod, Junior; Lindy Osbourne, Intermediate; Fiona Heard, Senior. As a result of their efforts and enthusiasm in athletics, symbols were awarded to Catherine Graham (re-award) and Fiona Heard. In conclusion my thanks go to all those who helped make our annual sports day a success, and in particular to Miss Odgers, Miss Falkenstein and the School sports captain, Catherine Graham, without whose assistance we could not have managed. Fiona Heard.

BASKETBALL REPORT Basketball practices began in earnest after commencing second term. Enthusiasm once team positions were announced, and also beforehand, was present in each player as she tried to fulfil her place in the respective teams. With many barriers to overcome, namely the adverse weather and time to continue practices because of the pressing committments during this busy term, teams contested each match with great determination. Although no outright premierships were won, this did not detract from the high standard of play present in each team. Besides the keeness and extreme firmness of purpose shown by the senior players, it was not lacking in the junior and sub-junior teams who showed that they will develop into valuable and competent players in future years. With the season coming to an end, players resolved to play their best games in our last Association Match against M.L.C. Social matches were played against Geelong Teachers' College, Sacred Heart and Clyde with the seniors also

obtaining a practice match with the Open Geelong Combined Team. These matches were very beneficial to the participants. At the end of a fulfilling season basketball symbols were awarded to. Fiona Heard and Sheridan Browne and re-awarded to Deidre Hookings. Congratulations go to these girls. Congratulations are also in order for Roslyn on winning the Marion Rankin Shield for Inter-House Senior basketball, to Harris for winning the Junior section, and Lawson on being successful in the sub-junior section. In closing my report I should like to extend the teams' thanks to our coach, Miss Falkenstein , for enduring those freezing early morning practices, as well as the afternoon ones, and for her guidance and assistance throughout the season with the efforts needed to coach a team. To those returning for yet another year I wish them every success in attaining more satisfying results in 1971. Remember, unfailing enthusiasm and persistence are your keynotes for achievement. Sheridan Browne.

HOCKEY REPORT In spite of the disappointment of some association results the term proved to be an interesting one. Social matches were played against The Geelong College, Geelong Grammar and Clyde teams.

Hockey examinations were sat for by all senior and some junior players. These proved to be very useful in determining how much, or how little, we all knew.

TENNIS REPORT This year has not been a very successful one for Morongo in tennis, although the season was an enjoyable one with great enthusiasm being shown by all girls. At our first practices it was pleasing to see so many girls armed with rackets waiting to show their ability, and to those who didn't make it this year, don't be discouraged. Both our Junior and Senior teams were very young this year and I am sure everyone gained a great deal of experience for future years. To those returning, good luck in 1971. Social matches were played against Clyde and Geelong Grammar. Also the

tennis tournament between The Geelong College and Morongo was held on Saturday, 3rd October. This was enjoyed by all girls and our thanks go to Mr. Hunt for arranging it. The tennis Championships are under way at the moment with many girls keenly competing. At the end of the tennis season symbols were re-awarded to Deidre Hookings. I should like to thank Miss Falkenstein for her enthusiasm and help during the season and our thanks are also rendered to Mr. Sleeman for his unfailing assistance and encouragement each Friday. Deidre Hookings.

ARDENS L. to R.: R. Lee (Vice-House Captain), F. Donnan (House Captain), H. McKewan (House Sports Captain).

ARDENS " Seek Wisdom " As in the past three years, swimming has proved to be our finest point, with our victory at the Swimming Sports on 10th March. Our congratulations go to the champions, especially to Marilyn Ford, the Intermediate champion. The fact that she was our only champion, is indicative of the high standards achieved by all our swimmers — well done! Enthusiasm has been generally strong and the keennessrof the Juniors is pleasing. However, this did not prevent our disastrous defeat in the InterHouse Athletics Sports. We were not particularly successful with our second term Inter-House basketball, hockey and table-tennis matches. Hopes are held for the coming Inter-House baseball and tennis matches this term. We are grateful to all the other houses for the keen competition they have provided. After singing " Where do I go?" in the House Music Competitions held in second term, we won first place in the choir section and achieved third place in the Instrumental section. Lawson

won by a narrow margin, in fact two points! Congratulations Lawson! We thank Roslyn Lee for her competent conducting. A special mention must be made of Jenny Davis who won the Instrumental Soloist section and whose invaluable help and support made our competitions so successful. It is pleasing to see that our academic work is of a good standard and to note the comparitively few debits. I wish Ardens the best of luck and every success in the coming year. To Heather McKewan, for her efficient organization, enthusiasm and help, to Roslyn Lee for her consistent valuable support, to the House Staff members and to every girl, I express the traditional " Thanks ", which are particularly well-deserved this year.

HARRIS L. to R.: D. Hookings (Vice-House Captain), J. Rhodes (House Captain),

S. Browne (House Sports Captain).

HARRIS " Not Failure, but low Aim is Crime Harris has throughout tried to maintain the standard of previous years, and with the general enthusiasm of all the girls the results have varied. Swimming launched the inter-house competitions, and although not taking a victorious position our ability in raising the standard was evident. Our congratulations go to Marion Matheson (sub-junior runner-up) and the other swimmers who made this possible. Athletics held the next major positions in the year's activities on 18th April. Unfortunately Harris did not maintain her winning position of the past four years, but the enthusiasm of the girls was not at a loss, and our congratulations go to Lindy Osbourne (Intermediate Champion) and to Roslyn House. But our loss was well balanced with our win in the marching. Second term proved very busy with preparations for the Inter-House Music Competitions, and this resulted in the high standard of all houses. Our instrumental group portrayed its ability in the tie with Lawson for first place. and I do extend my thanks to all girls connected with the music competitions for their unfailing co-operation. Inter-house basketball and hockey were quite successful, and our Junior

basketball team did well in winning all its matches. Although the baseball and tennis are still in progress, Our juniors once again excelled themselves in being undefeated in tennis, and I hope this high standard will continue. But Harris's ability has come through the work of the girls, and my personal thanks go to Sheridan Browne who has been a most capable and efficient Sports Captain, and Deidre Hookings who has been a conscientious ViceHouse Captain. The unfailing support they have shown along with the other senior girls and staff, has been most rewarding to the house. For me, this has been a most memorable year as House Captain, and I hope the enthusiasm and co-operation I received will continue for other leaders. For future years, I wish Harris every success.

ROSLYN L. to R.: J. Yorke (Vice-House Captain), R. Bellwood (House Captain), F. Heard (House Sports Captain).

ROSLYN " We are Judged by our Deeds " Roslyn was not successful in all sections of inter-house competition this year. However, despite this, most members of the house keenly participated and displayed courteous sportsmanship. The Swimming Sports were held on the 9th of March this year at the Norlane Swimming Pool. Although Roslyn was not successful we had three champions, Sally Malloch (runner-up to Senior champion), Michelle Tattam (Junior champion) and Shani Tattam (Sub-Junior champion). Ardens was the victorious house. The Athletics Sports were held on the 18th of April. This year Roslyn won. Congratulations go to our champions: Fiona Heard (Senior champion), Cathy Graham (runner-up to Senior champion), Chris Spry (runnerup to Intermediate champion), Libby McKenzie (runner-up to Junior champion) and Chris Riley (Sub-Junior champion). During second term inter-house basketball, hockey and table-tennis matches were played. The Senior basketball team was successful. At the moment inter-house tennis and baseball matches are being played.

The Inter-house Music Competitions were also held in second term. Lawson was the successful house. The final results were very close among all houses. I should like to thank all girls who participated, and I should like to see Roslyn do better next year. I should personally like to thank Fiona Heard, our sports captain, who has keenly participated and organized the sport in the house; Jenny Yorke our vice-captain; and also Cathy Graham, who, although being School sports captain, has devoted much of her time and interest to the house. The support and co-operation of the house officials and girls has been much appreciated. To those not returning to school, I wish you all good luck in the future; and to those returning to school I hope you have a successful 1971. Robyn Bellwood.

To acknowledge the help given by some girls, Miss Shaw and Miss Rentoul took us to the film " Oliver " and we should like to thank them both for giving up their valuable time. During second term a number of boarders were confirmed at St. David's and four girls had their confirmation at St. John's on 28th October.

HEAD OF THE BOARDING HOUSE D. Hookings.

BOARDING HOUSE REPORT

With suitcases in hand and much holiday " chat ", the boarders returned on 3rd February. Both the Boarders' Picnic at Torquay and the tennis tournament, held the first two Saturdays of term, helped new and old girls to mingle. These were enjoyed by all, despite the blustery conditions at Torquay, and our thanks go to the Sportsmistresses for the organization of the tournament.

On 17th February, Miss Shaw anounced the House-House Captains and the Head Boarder. The following evening the councillors dined with the boarders to celebrate Founders Day and afterwards we had a service in the Hall.

Although the weather for the MiniAths was rather bleak, all girls seemed to enjoy themselves and the brightly coloured windcheaters (of the different House colours) added to the gaiety of the occasion. House barbecues preceded the inter-house concert in which all girls enthusiastically partook, revealing the boarders' talents . . . Our thanks go to Mrs. McNeil for giving us her time to adjudicate and also to Miss Odgers, Miss Falkenstein and Miss Rentoul for the efficient organization. Congratulations go to Pettit on its overall win and to MacPhee which received the Wooden Spoon. Throughout the year Miss Henderson has willingly given up her free time to show the boarders different films and I should like to express our gratitude to her. These films have included: " They're a Weird Mob ", " The Wrong Box ", " Sammy the Sea-going Seal ", " Walk Don't Run ", " Becket ", " The Taming of the Shrew ", " Treasure Island ", " Matter of Innocence ", and " Counter Point ". House feasts were held the last night of term as a finale to 1970. Everyone realizes how fortunate we have been in the continued interest shown by Miss Shaw in the Boarding House; she will be greatly missed next year and we extend to her our best wishes for a peaceful and happy retirement.

Many boarders gave enthusiastic assistance at the Luncheon held the weekend of the Jubilee Celebrations and all boarders attended the Jubilee Church Service on the Sunday morning. Page Forty-Three

The new site has been a tremendous success: The little ones feel part of the Junior School, and have gained a great deal from the nearness to the other groups and to future staff-members. Now we are looking forward to the completion of the modern Nursery which is being added to the existing building. As usual, the Athletics Sports were held during the first term, on 22nd April. It was an enjoyable occasion. The winner of the championship events was Yvonne Cook with Simone Jerram as runner-up. The House to gain most points was Ardens. The Junior Auxiliary has been most helpful and thoughtful in its approach to the staff and the needs of the School. A gift of $100 for the purchase of books for the School Library was much appreciated. Mrs. Hargreaves, from the I.T.A. centre, paid a visit in October, and as always, gave some friendly advice.

JUNIOR SCHOOL AND NURSERY

This year has been quite an eventful one. At the beginning were the Jubilee Celebrations which proved to be most enjoyable. Many former students paid a visit to the Junior School, and we had Tessa Sutorius with us for a few days. A big change in the lives of the Nursery children was the transfer from the city building to the Junior School. The spacious surroundings, the association with the older girls and the longer bus ride have been added attractions.

The Junior School is always a busy place, and as the year draws towards its close, all are preparing with happy anticipation to the end of year functions. The thought uppermost in most minds is the pending retirement of Miss Shaw. We will miss her visits to the Junior School, but all wish her a very happy future. At the same time we extend a welcome to Miss Brookshaw. There will be changes in the Junior School, too. Mrs. Walters who has been at Morongo for many years, and Miss Miller who has also been with us for several years, have both given stirling service and will be missed greatly. The Compliments of the Season are extended to all.

JUNIOR AUXILIARY

I have much pleasure in presenting the Annual Report of the Morongo Junior Auxiliary for 1970. Under the capable leadership of Mrs. Noelle Cook, our year started most happily with our joining the Jubilee Celebrations. Junior School mothers were invited to the Special Assembly and morning coffee, The Garden Party, Jubilee Dinner and the Church Service and cheerfully helped with catering when required. The Annual Social evening at the G.A.M.A. Theatre was again well attended on 3rd March. After seeing the Play " Thriller of the Year " members had the opportunity to meet Miss Shaw and the Junior School Staff who were our guests. On 18th April, the Senior School Sports Day, the Junior Auxiliary Members held a well stocked cake stall, and our thanks go to all whO helped. Four morning meetings have been held in the Community Aid Abroad Rooms. Guest speakers have been Mr. E. W. McCann, whose subject was the Proposed Gas Pipe Line to Geelong, Mr. A. Howarth on Speech Therapy, and one of our members Jennifer Heath told us about Marriage Guidance. At the April meeting in the Canteen Mrs. Duff was invited to talk about teaching deaf children, and our August meeting- at Morongo had the greatest attendance to hear MisS Courtney's interesting talk about the Junior School. In July we combined with the afternoon Auxiliary to hold a most successful Film and Morning Coffee Party, and judging by the hilarity of the audience this entertainment was enjoyed by all. Junior School mothers will all be sad to say good-bye to Miss Shaw at the end of the year, but, with her go our good wishes for a much deserved long and happy retirement. Miss Courtney and her Junior School Staff have as always been unstinting in their efforts to encourage our children

and on the President's and members' behalf, I would like to thank them most sincerely. Thanks go also to members who have happily done various tasks throughout the year, especially our President Mrs. Noelle Cook and Treasurer, Mrs. Kath Plumridge, who retire this year and have worked so hard in the Junior Auxiliary's interests. I would personally like to thank Noel and Kath for their help to me as Secretary and hope they have enjoyed their term in office on this Auxiliary. Best Wishes to the Junior Auxiliary for a most successful 1971. Joan Morwood, Hon. Sec.

PARENTS' AND FRIENDS' ASSOCIATION

The Annual Meeting of the Parents' and Friends' Association was held in the School canteen on 2nd June, 1970 and the following were elected to office: President: Dr. D. Taylor. Secretary: Mrs. A. Huffam. Treasurer: Mr. J. Clutterbuck. We would like to thank the retiring office bearers, Mr. A. Lucas, Mrs. Herd, and Mr. Wood for their contribution to the Parents' and Friends' Association during their term of office. As a result of a motion put to the meeting a draft constitution has been prepared and will be submitted to the Annual Meeting in 1971. The highlight of our October meeting was a talk by Mr. W. Oats, Headmaster of Friends' School, Hobart who discussed various aspects of co-education. During 1971 we hope to invite guest speakers to talk ,on subjects of interest to .us as parents. A. Huffam, Hon. Sec.

PARENTS' AND FRIENDS' AFTERNOON AUXILIARY It is with very much pleasure that I present this Annual Report, and offer it to you as a full and accurate account of the activities of the Morongo Parents' and Friends' Afternoon Auxiliary for 1969-70. It has been a most successful year both socially, and financially and the attendances have been very pleasing, making the task for the Committee a very happy and easy one. Mesdames Cooke, Powell, Sweetman, McGibbon, and McNaughton were elected to our Committee for two years in October 1969, and Mesdames Herd, Thorne, Cuthbertson, Fenwick, Champion, Simmonds, and Chirnside reelected for a further year, Mrs. Cooke as Secretary, Mrs. Herd as Vice-President, Mrs. Simmonds in charge of used clothing, and Mesdames Fenwick and Champion, in charge of the trading table. A morning coffee party was held in the Canteen in November, and this took the form of our annual Christmas breakup. To mark the Jubilee of the School, the Afternoon Auxiliary donated Valedictory Prizes for Matriculation students leaving the School. We helped the Old Collegians with the decorations for Speech Night, and here I would like to thank Mrs. Cooke for the magnificent blooms she so kindly donated for the occasion. February marked the Jubilee celebrations. On Friday morning the 20th, the Afternoon Auxiliary and Junior School organised a morning coffee party after the special Assembly. A dinner was held at night in the Corio Centenary Hall, and on the Saturday a Garden Party was held at the School, and we catered for afternoon tea in the Canteen. After the Church Service on Sunday, our committee once again served morning coffee and supper was served by our willing ladies after the Jubilee Concert. All functions were highly successful. A barbecue was held on 18th April prior to the School Sports, and our

committee and members were to the fore with their organizing and working ability as usual. In April Mrs. Ingpen gave a very interesting and informative demon: stration on .dried arrangements and hand made flowers from paper, cellophane and tulle. In May, Miss Wilson, the Deaconess at Morongo, gave a talk on her work with the girls and this proved extremely interesting. During the school holidays the Matriculation students made a trip to Alice Spring and Ayers Rock, and in June, Deidre Hookings and Jan Rhodes entertained us by relating their experiences. In July,we joined forces with the Junior School 'for a morning coffee Picture Party at the *Geelong Theatre. This was such a wonderful success, both socially and financially, that I would like to suggest this becomes an annual event. The School has been very fortunate in having presented to it by the Old Collegians, a magnificent Wurlitzer Organ, and in September we spent an hour or so' hearing delightful numbers rendered by Mrs. Thompson. During the year a letter was received from Mr. D. G. Neilson, informing us of the retirement of Miss Shaw at the end of the school year. I, and I know all members of this Auxiliary, received this with deep regret, but wish Miss Shaw a very happy and long well earned retirement. I would like you all to know, and I say this with all sincerity, that I have enjoyed every moment of the last two years, and I feel that I am a better person for having known such wonderful and loyal friends. I say thank you firstly to my Secretary, Mrs. Cooke who has carried out her duties as Secretary with a capable and cheerful manner, and at all times assisted me, making my term a very pleasant and easy one. During the year, Mrs. Cooke has provided floral decorations on many occasions, at no cost to the Auxilliary, and I thank her also for her valued friendship. Mrs. Powell has been a very capable Treasurer. The position

Page Fifty-One


wasn't easy for her, as she suffered ill health, and spent some time in hospital, but we were delighted to see her back, to carry on as Treasurer. To Mrs. Fred Herd I say many thanks for her help as Vice President. I know she will enjoy being President, and I know she will receive loyal support at all times as I have. I will be right behind her, and I know you will be too. I would like to mention others individually, but all I can say is a big thankyou to all members of the committee. Each one has given of her very best at all times. To the retiring members, I know it is a sad occasion, as they have loved every moment of it as much as I have done. I wish the incoming Committee every success. May the great friendliness of the committee and members continue to grow, and may you

still experience pleasure in being a parent and friend of such a wonderful School, Morongo. V. M. Chirnside, President. Office bearers for the coming year: President: Mrs. Fred Herd. Vice-Pres.: Mrs. Gray-Thompson. Secretary: Mrs. Cliff Cooke. Assist. Sec.: Mrs. E. J. Sweetman. Treasurer: Mrs. E. B. Powell. Committee: Mesdames Chirnside, McGibbon, McNaughton, Plumridge, Sutherland, McMillan. Used Clothing: Mrs. N. Simmonds. Trading Table: Mrs. Champion and Mrs. Fenwick.

The Classroom

The " noiselessness " of pencils rubbing together And pages being flipped over in desperate Silence Results in overwhelming hubbub. The French poster curls, slowly As the minutes clink-clank past. It is a sea of paper, pens Muddy shoes and grey, misty air. Three o'clock " Please don't mumble " Grumble, mumble. Why does my mind take wings Of cotton wool and lace and fly? The piece of sky takes on a purple hue. Girls become blue-grey blurs. Even my book changes colour and I put down my pen with a sigh. Elizabeth Davidson (Form 6).

A Journey

Bubbles of prismic light, float towards their mother Sun, I cling to the chequered panes that I may go too. The sun was warm, so deceptively beautiful; and so we went, seeking and searching, until at last we came. All were lost, broken and torn on the jagged glass fragments of the Sun. Their life-blood spilt and over-ran in crimson drops. Down we went, for I was not lost until the Sun became once more a thing of beauty and of warmth. The golden sands stretched before me, my crimson gone I had to leave. I walked past people, not seeing; I walked past oceans, not caring; and then I came to a hole in a grassy bank and pushing through, found myself here with you. The room is dark, the air is hot; Bubbles are fancy, the gains of pot. Jan Waters (Form 6). Page Sixty-One


War is tough, war is hate, The Four War is vengeance, war is fate, Lettered Word War is death, war is . . . But what is peace? Peace is a five lettered word What! You heard — is that all peace means to you? Perhaps if it were a four letter word people like you Would sit up and notice. Peace is calm, peace is love Peace is happiness, peace is joy. Remember — War isn't a four lettered word But love is. Kathie Kidd (Form 6)

Morning Symphony

With the whisperings of dawn The clouds blush' And faint ripples fill the air. The world slumbers, Lost in dreams, While pink ribbons thread the sky. A touch of scarlet Invades the tapestry, Sending throbs of colour Along a rosy highway. The blood-red umbrella Of morning Has shed all mystery, Revealing A hidden reality: An inevitable finale.

the Sea

The sea is a glistening, shimmering kingdom, Underneath the heavens of God. It sparkles on beautiful days, Like millions of precious stones, It scares you on windy days Like a pool of molten lead. It looks as though someone has thrown the stars beneath the sea, At all the pretty shells we see, As we swim to the surface the sun shines down. We break an oyster SNAP! In half. A beautiful pearl we find! I love the sea in all these stages, I don't really mind which one, But the salty water tickling my feet, I love, as along the soft sand I run. Kristen Good (Grade 6).

Sweet Teeth

I'm a coffee bear, a toffee bear and I like honey best. I'm a cunning bear, a honey bear, giving hives a test, I'm a young bear, a stung bear — I'm leaving bees alone, And I wouldn't have pinched honey if only I had known! Sally Price (Grade 6).

The Aborigine's Plea

Crouching in their' humpies shivering with cold, Theirs is a story that's never been told, Their land we have taken, their heritage lost. We've gained fair Australia, but at what great cost. The land is rugged, the desert so bare, Their plea is obvious, but do we care? What help are we? What can be done? There's so much unhappiness in this land of sun. Megan Poulston (Grade 6).

Our Country

I'm proud and pleased to own this land. Sunburnt brown and green. The river flowing by my house, Is good and fresh and clean. The Springtime flowers open, With early morning dew. And I am there to smell it When it opens to the blue. Rachel Deller (Grade 5).

Heaven

Heaven is everything, the stars, the planets, the milky way; It is something that is nowhere, yet somewhere. It is where the Lord is. Heaven is something that cannot be found, yet we seek it, It cannot be written down on paper, but It is nowhere on earth: it is the eternal place. Lynda Scott (Grade 5). Page Sixty-Four


rhe Horse

I'm a free horse, a sea horse Doing what I like. I'm a rough horse, a tough horse running on the course. I'm a hairy, horse, a Hairy horse, running wild and free. I love other horses by my side to keep me company. Ann Denney (Grade 6).

Waterfall

The turbulant waters tumble down, From huge black rocks that form a frown. Cold water spurts from every hole, And trickles to a slimy bowl. Jane Doery (Form 1).

[rains

They go forever, Never thinking of stopping; With their one eye They tear through the night. Taking their passengers to destinies Known only to the dragon itself. Its black coat conceals it from all Until the thundering horse passes by Into the cool dark night. Sally Hanna (Form 1).

What My Grandfather Said

When I was a child Accidents were mild There weren't the terrible electric things, That give us burns and give us stings. Though I remember there was quite a rangle When my sister put her arm through the mangle. Perhaps they weren't so mild at all Especially in that slippery hall. But my memory's not the best When I put it to the test. Simone Hall (Grade 5).

Lost!

I am a wild rabbit. One day I went farther away from my burrow than I had ever done before in search of food. Winter was coming and my food supply was running down. Suddenly I heard a rumbling and hid in the long grass. But then I saw very dark clouds and saw some lightning. I noticed it was night time and there was a terribly big thunder-storm. I sheltered in a hollow log. Then morning broke and I found myself saturated. I hopped outside and looked about. In an instant I knew I was lost. I found I was in a wood. I was weak from hunger and nibbled some grass. Then I was so scared I nearly had a heart attack. A female human was looking down at me. I ran, but she caught me, took me home and I lived happily ever after. Sally Toyne (Grade 4). Page Sixty-Six

Day Noel

The sunburnt ones standing quietly golden in the doorway Watching Doing nothing Waiting for the morning to unfurl And air itself With the screaming curlews Blue sky and rough hard seeds in my oven Cooking slowly rising forming round brown loaves. Lilies in the field Leaves floating down. Sliding The curve of rusty sickles Ruddy as a windburnt cheek, The soft undulating folds of flapping robes down amongst the vineyards. I wonder when the donkeys will come home This fine clear Autumn. Thais Horne (Form 6). Page Sixty-Seven


Eruption

The air was hot and humid. The great mountain stood etched against the blood-red sky, sending its thick grey clouds of smoke into the heavy air, to disappear slowly in the vast spaces. It had been smoking for a long time, and tiny particles of carbon and volcanic dust clotted the limbs of the ghostly trees. Utter desolation echoed over the empty, treeless plain. Suddenly, as if the mountain could no longer retain the internal pressure, the crater exploded with an ear-rending roar, sending rocks and clods of soil volleying through the air. Shooting flames thousands of feet into the air, the mountain spewed forth the molten lava like a giant dragon vomiting destruction. Tiny riverlets of boiling mud and searing lava ran riot over the summit of the mountain, while the main flow of lava surged forth on its path of disaster. Like a river of death, it swallowed everything in its path, turning the landscape into a nightmare of terror. Nothing survived its onslaught. Insanity ruled nature and an untamable beast had been set loose. A. Chirnside (Form 4).

Autumn

The Rooster Sat on his Dunghill and Crowed

Autumn is my favourite season For a very good reason. Red, yellow and brown leaves Are falling from the trees. Bright colours, dark colours. But then you rake the gladness away. And sadness comes again. Rebecca Mahar (Grade 4).

The rooster sat on his dunghill and crowed Along the dark plains of the sunless dawn. The stars were pale and dying, the fields fawn And barren; the potent drug of sleep rode The world. A dog came sniffing, but . . . hallowed Was the ground 'round there; no need for a pawn Where a king reigns, and the dog left with torn Ears. The feathers and comb of the cock showed Gay on the muted morning horizon. He crowed again as a warm glow suffused The sky; the sun looked down from its mountain And watched the conceited bird. It amused The king to frustrate the pawn's happy dream, And cause its self-built pedestal' to steam. P. Wilson (Form 5). Page Seventy


The Dream

The shapes that grew there in my mind; The face distorted. The eyes shook my soul; They ripped away my countenance. The evil passion dawned inside; The grey moon charred, The gripping glare, Fastened; bonded with age-old hate. The arm stretched out; Long-dreaded skeletons, Bony fingers reaching, clutching. The blood-stained tears clung. A scream that echoed in the cave. China smashed — gutless spirit Gave birth to new dread. A sheath of feathers tickling aimlessly. Swirling, curling The mists of time With seeds newly spread Sacrificed its only life. Bronwyn Mackinnon (Form 3).

An Educated Reply? The doorbell rang, A sharp masculine jingle. Landlady glancing towards mirror, Fluffs pretty permed hair. Coming she trills, Patting face with puff. Smoothing skirt and jumper, Lining lips with paint. " A vacant room, Advertised in today's paper, Still ready to be occupied?" A masculine voice inquired. Her brows knotted, Darker than her customer's face. Smile replaced by a sulky expression, Eyes of hatred, nugget black. " No, no rooms," Was her educated reply Devoid of any white politeness, To her brother — black. Madeline Tucker (Form 4). Page Seventy-One


Exam Thoughts from my Desk

(— with apologies to Robert Browning) Oh to see Morongo, Now October tests are here, For whoever sees Morongo Sees, in each face, dread and fear, For each girl is crammed with knowledge new Yet hopes of passing still seem few, And wrinkles cross each troubled brow Morongo — now! After October, falls November, The dreaded month, we all remember! When faces are long, and lose all their humour, They show only worries, express only fears, Because of some terrible, terrible rumour, That this is the worst exam set in five years! That's lest you should think that you don't have to hurry, Or can pass without a single worry! And though third term is spent in all this strain, January, alone, can ease the pain, Results come out, and this year they are mailed — So we'll be first, to know how well we've — passed! Sheena Henton (Form 5). Page Seventy-Two


Silhouette

Morongo Mystery

A shadow of colour perturbs the monotony of sole blue sky: And the quiets of beauty beakons. A child often wondered and loved and hated composing words to spite, in the shelter of a great tree, but as it grew, bitter words and thoughts, dissolved as salt in water. there was a happiness in imagination and dreams, uncultured by knowledge of reality. A summer day, A ride of red beaten track, A parched creek and tussocked paddock, A rattling, rusty bike chain, A clanking, empty milk bucket, A snake skin shed by old stonewall. Long hours of wandering in the intrigue of feedom. But, as a north wind hailed year, Time paced change to shadow an existence with scrub and blood. An eddying pool of desolation evolved an ocean deep in perplexity, a path of blind gold stumbling, a torment of entwining seaweed and tentacles and enhalement of gurgling sorrow. Shallow courage and pretence of happiness were infinite. But, Time is not restrained and as the tree gained statue it was understood, " I complained because I had no shoes, until I saw a man who had no feet." Happiness deepened and an existence was shadowed With a wisdom of acceptance. Hands sculptured a complex way to contend, not to cower. A smile, laughter and love were sincere and the tree is peace. A shadow of sunlight pursues the night that beckons and I go. Prue Lamont (Form 6). — a specialty from Grace. Take 1 cup of water and add a Giblet with Parsley. Steer round with Murray's curry mixed with Forsters lager. Cook steadily and don't be Ega and when Shaw of being brown Flip in a Southerly direction. Pate with Jam and drink with Bovril. If this is Methy Have a Burger. Eat Bicky and Maccoroni with a Faulk. Good Evans, don't forget to ring the Bell! Someone will be Mad'v'er. Sally Doery & Co. (Form 3). Page Seventy-Three


A Bush Fire

A fierce crackle and then, as if, The world were all ablaze, A fire flared high above the trees Sweeping the bracken below. The glowing red coals flicker like fire-flies. The orange flame dances frolickingly on falling timber. Bush animals race for safety. Intensive heat twists the fence posts Until they become unrecognizable shapes; A kangaroo flops to the ground burning. The scrub is no longer dry growth But a mass of black and red sparks. Chris Howarth (Grade 6).

Solitude

Through the black silhouettes of trees, The silver moon shines down on The harbour, each beam lighting The flat mirror-surface of the sea. Looking through the windows of his home, A man sits, waiting for someone He needs, someone who can't Come back to him. He's alone. In a dingy bedroom a baby lies, Small and frail in the dark night. Hopeless and unable to understand What has happened. He cries. Judith Anderson (Form 4).

Sacrifice

The dusk was thick and hanging, boding a night which lurked under every shadow, which breathed every sweated drop of the misty orange highway light. All round him cars flashed by like bees homing for their hives, scurrying before they are squashed in a sticky human melée. His ' engine battled against the intense determination of the insect stream, tossed about like a ship at sea. The Melbourne night blanket was grimy and prickly with heat. An opening of the window served only to amplify the dusty droning of millions of machines — a humming made to be loved by men. Ah — a byway; an escape from the flood. The potted road ran past the frowsy glue factory, belching out the last of its daily clogged indigestion; past the stockyards, waiting, dry, licking their wooden lips for the slaking juice of tomorrow's carcasses; and then through that guilty congregation of slummery houses, huddled like a babe on its mother's breast, its chimneys gulping greedily the suckling soot of the city. The road ran on. The engine rejoiced sadistically in the boundless, purring distances. The road ran on. Sudden flash of light. Headlights razing the dazzled road, stabbing, probing. He caught the eyes flaring in brilliant terror. Screaming, stark eyes, flaming as they saw the car throw itself onto them. Screaming eyes. Screaming, burning . . . a live, pulsing body . . . crying eyes . . . a yelp . . . dying eyes . . . The flapping body thudded onto a firm-cased car, slapping out the remains of its life on the metal. A slumped, empty bladder. The engine stopped, generously; graciously allowing a brief respite for death. Then the boy. He saw first the skinned legs pounding out a tattoo on the throbbing footpath; growing longer, larger, until the face appeared. A rigid, accusing face, hating. The boy stood at the edge of the road, gaping dumbly at the hump of flesh. His eyes stared in chill, green blindness. The mouth contorted into a cruel jagged line: a line which tore the heart of the man, as he watched, conscious of intruding upon a scene. The whole affair was seeming so planned. Doorways bent over remonstratingly, as the boy sobbed silently on the adult footpath, as his childhood flowed into the salty gutter. The scene broke — " Look sonny, I didn't . . . I mean . . . " The sober silence of a suburban street, frowning, leering, disapproving. " Here son — he just appeared . . . dark . . . no pain . . . " A grieving, bleeding shoulder shook off the tentative hand. " How about another . . . another pup . . . ?" The silence of hatred, of refusal. The car had gone; hearse-like in its guilt.

Page Seventy-Five


In the alley the boy's legs pounded out the crying footpath as he ran off his grief. One bony hand clutched the coins of conscience; the other pulled out a yapping pup from the grimy, twitching basket. The innocent sacrifice writhed as if it knew its fate. In the street a car was approaching. Katrina Watson (Form 5).

Doubtful Statements

Every day the Indians have large families. The Power of the Press ' is the amount of electricity required to print a newspaper. The people were ubiquitous at the football. France was in a state of Anakie. Charles V died hairless. Question: (On The Reformation) What caused the split in the Church? Answer: There was an earthquake some distance away, and it shook the Church. The Church was old and unsteady. It had been poorly constructed. Its foundations collapsed.

Bliss

The birds were settling down in their nests to go to sleep, the cattle were dozing around the feed troughs which were now empty. The slow setting sun with its beautiful colours, was giving the last rays of light to the almost noiseless earth until the moon would come. There, looking out of the window on to the contented world, was an old man. He would sit there all night if necessary to make sure there would be a warm fire and a hot drink for the ' visitor '. The ' visitor ' was his son, come at last to settle in his childhood home, which had once bustled with the noise of children and their mother, but now there were only two of them left to recall those happy memories. The sun sank out of view and one by one the stars came out like sparkling diamonds on ink-blue velvet. Finally, a cloud drifted away and there, shining down on everything, was the beautiful moon in full splendour. The minutes passed slowly until suddenly the man saw a black shape silhouetted on a nearby ridge. His heart beat faster, gathering speed as a train moving from a station. Soon the ringing thud of hooves was to be heard on the track . . . coming up the hill. The thuds became less frequent with the tiring of the horse, but neither the rider nor spectator could think of anything but the other. The old man started outside, new life came into him, the rider arrived at the homestead and slid off the heaving horse. Both humans went to each other and embraced with a warm loving hug . . . this was complete bliss . . . Heather Taylor (Form 2). Page Seventy-Six


The Flood

Run, Run for your lives, The liquid monster is here again, To drown the animals To flood the pastures, To leave most people homeless The Flood. The Flood, It is an enemy to drought and the sun, and has won the battle By covering all the dry properties, It is a partner to rain and water and has spread the country o'er Rising, Rising over the banks of the river and over the doors of buildings Surely it will not last Surely it will not last, The rays of its enemy the sun, Will again conquer its powerful flow, Until it has disappeared Disappeared, into the heavens above; Only to wait, To wait for another chance to attack its only foe, Water. Penny Kerger (Form 1).

Thoughts

The spray flies up in crystal showers Showing forth the mighty powers Of the sea, as it crashes on shore, Beating the sound of waves, evermore Repeating the echoes. Pounding, Resounding, An endless source of beauty.

Bright flames of colour Burning fiercely with the last fiery hours of life. Warmth, After the heat of Summer, Like the glowing embers of a dying fire. Music, Flowing songs of life, Tunes that ripple on the waves of the mind. Death. Last dying hours Extinguished flames, Cold. And Autumn makes way For Winter. The stony out-crop towers above the baren waste of sandy desert.

Bare, licked clean by greedy hands A dead tree sways in the tearing wind; Wind, sweeping away the loosened soil of life. A solitary lizard, alone, a tiny speck On the bare wound on man's destruction. Margaret Davidson (Form 3).

Bushfire

The roaring flames Leaping like dragon's tongues Devour the forest. Man's handiwork ended in a minute, Gone with only the ashes as a memorial. Night is coming, But the devil remains Eagerly delighting in his conflagration. As the sweating, straining men collapse The flames gradually die, And the sun slowing sinks to the horizon, The forest is restored once again, To Peace. Mary-Louise Randell (Form 4).

Lucernian " Representative: JEAN RENTOUL Morongo — P.O. Box 17. Miss Lucy Shaw, M.B.E., B.A., M.A.C.E. Principal — 1942 - 1970. " Sint Lucernae Ardentes " God grant our light so shine That henceforth the flame of our teaching Far through the centuries reaching, Stand for a sign. Today we pay tribute to Miss Lucy Shaw who has nurtured this flame over a period of twenty-nine years, with dedication and ability, so that Morongo and its girls, past and present, do truly " stand for a sign ". To lead a school successfully in these changing and challenging times is difficult. Years of war brought extra tension and responsibility, and years of peace bring their own problems. Big schools are now big business, but to successfully direct a school does not only require business acumen — and the ability to attract good staff — a school must also preserve its soul, and through the dedication of its Head Mistress, Morongo has continued to grow not only in terms of the number of girls and buildings, but in this special area which is so important in any

school, and in particular a Church School. Much is required of a Principal, but Miss Shaw has demanded of herself far more than would ever be required. She has placed her mark on Education in this State and beyond, and her great interest in the affairs of her Old Collegians Associations will be remembered with deep gratitude. She has travelled to the four corners of the state and beyond to bring a message from the School to its old girls; thousands of miles and thousands of hours of selfless giving of time and thought have contributed greatly to the close association of Old Collegians and their School. During this long and close contact there are many girls who while at school respected and admired their " Head " but who now have as well a deep affection for Miss Shaw as a friend. Morongo is written on her heart, and her name is held lovingly by girls of the school both present and past. To guide a school over a period of twenty-nine years requires talents far beyond normal capacity. Wisdom, strength, courage, unselfishness and humility, — all these talents have been used to the fullest extent by Miss Shaw, but overlying them all has been a deep conviction of the requirements of a Church School, a firm faith, and a due reverence for God. Poets may use the English language to more eloquent advantage, but no one can speak with more sincerity than the girls who have been brought under her influence. We thank you Miss Shaw for tending the lamp so devotedly, and increasing its light so that its rays have shed not only on the School but over the wider area of life. We wish you many years of peaceful enjoyment of more personal pursuits, and with these wishes go the warmest affection of thousands of girls. " Inspired with love and holy fear And pledged to high endeavour ".

ANNUAL REPORT, 1970 I have much pleasure in presenting the Annual Report of Morongo Old Collegians Association for 1970. This has been a momentous year for Morongo, celebrating the Jubilee of the School with a number of most successful functions — our only regret is that during the year the Council announced the retirement of Miss Shaw, to take effect from the end of third term. We cannot adequately express our feelings toward Miss Shaw — her untiring devotion to Morongo and the discipline and leadership she has shown makes past and present girls grateful and proud to have been her students. Our year began with the Annual Meeting held in the Junior School on 22nd November, 1969 at 11 a.m., followed by drinks and savouries served in Lucy Shaw House and Luncheon in the Dining Hall. Miss Shaw and the Head Prefect gave resumes of various School activities which seem to increase and become more varied each year. Our guests at the Luncheon included Miss Shaw, Miss Sutherland, Miss Henderson, Miss Rentoul and Miss Evans who was retiring from the permanent staff after thirty years of teaching. We also had representatives from Old Collegians Associations of P.L.C., M.L.C., The Hermitage, M.C.E.G.G.S. and Combined Old Collegians, The Geelong Advertiser and the Prefects. Our thanks go to Miss Shaw, Jean Rentoul and the domestic staff for the excellent catering arrangements and to Intermediate Boarders who helped by waiting on the tables. The Jubilee Year commenced at Speech Night 1969 when the co-hostess Vida Fallaw presented the sports prizes on behalf of the Association. A very busy Jubilee weekend commenced on Friday, 20th February with a special Assembly at 9 a.m. in the Gertrude Pratt Hall, followed by morning coffee in the Canteen. The same night a Jubilee Dinner was held at Corio Centenary Hall where the book " Morongo, The First Fifty Years " was launched. The following day, Saturday

21st, over 450 Old Collegians many from overseas and interstate gathered for a buffet luncheon. We were fortunate to have a lovely sunny day and girls moved freely from the Dining Hall to the lawns. After the Luncheon the Association's Jubilee Gift of an electronic organ was formally presented to Miss Shaw and the Chairman of the Council, in the presence of other Council members and Old Collegians. During the afternoon a Garden Party was held and a Parade of Old Uniforms and a gallery of Photos provided much amusement. The weekend finished with a most inspiring Church Service held in the Gertrude Pratt Hall, conducted by the School Chaplain with the address being given by former Chaplain Rev. R. A. Blackwood, and an Old Collegian, Meredith Goding officiating at the organ. A Jubilee Concert was the next function early in March with Old Collegians and present girls providing entertainment, while the final function for Jubilee was a most successful Ball held at No. 9 Darling Street at which our Melbourne Branch members were hostesses. Due to all the Jubilee functions it was later in the year when the Committee entertained the staff at a buffet dinner and were happy to meet new and old members. Our mid-year Luncheon was held on 10th June at Royal Commonwealth House and judging by the attendance, Old Collegian speakers are proving very popular. This year Judy Williams (Lindsay) and Adrienne Solomon (Clarke) spoke on their tour of Japan and visit to Expo 70. We thank them for their delightful commentary and slides. This year through our Charities Fund we have been able to donate $50 each to Grace McKellar House Building Fund and to the National Council of Women Appeal for a Womens' College of Residence at the University of Papua and New Guinea. At the end of Second Term we 'ere advised by the School Council that Miss

Page Eighty-One


Dulcie Brookshaw, B.A., Dip.Ed., had been appointed Principal from the beginning of the 1971 school year. Representatives and Miss Shaw have visited:— Colac for the Western District Church Service and Luncheon on 5th April and Annual Meeting on 3rd October. Horsham for the Wimmera Branch Luncheon and Annual Meeting on 2nd May. Adelaide for the South Australian Branch Buffet Dinner and Meeting on 18th July. Melbourne for their Branch meeting on 5th August. Shepparton for the Goulburn Valley Branch Luncheon, meeting and Church Service on 9th August. We extend our best wishes to all Branches and hope they have continued success in 1971. Old Collegians were represented in the Sun Tennis and Golf Cups, and the Swimming and Athletic Sports. We thank all girls who took part in these fixtures. Eathorne Pavia and June McColl continue to be our delegates to the National Council of Women. June is at present Senior Vice-President of the Geelong Branch and we offer her our congratulations. The president, Eathorne Pavia would

specially like me to thank all Old Collegians for their interest and enthusiasm during this Jubilee Year, but in particular to thank her co-hostess Vida Fallaw and all Committee members for their loyal support and co-operation in the organization of all functions throughout the year. We thank Miss Shaw for her continued co-operation and interest in all our activities in Geelong and at Branches, Jean Rentoul for advice and assistance, Geoff Neilson for his work as Auditor, and Mrs Higginbotham from the Geelong Advertiser for publicity for our functions. Marlene Ryan, Honorary Secretary.

SOUTH AUSTRALIAN BRANCH Unfortunately at the time of going to press the Annual Report of this Branch had not arrived but we do know that they have been active during the year holding bi-monthly meetings. One of particular interest was that on 18th July which was attended by Miss Shaw and Jean Rentoul from Morongo as well as approximately 20 Old Collegians, a buffet dinner was served and members then had the opportunity of hearing School events first hand from Miss Shaw. Best wishes to the branch for next year. Marlene Ryan, Geelong.

MELBOURNE BRANCH Annual Report, 1970 It is with pleasure I present the 1970 Annual Report of the Melbourne Branch of the Old Collegians. All Old Collegians who attended the Jubilee Functions enjoyed renewing acquaintances both with staff and fellow students and many happy hours were spent in remixing. The presentation of the organ to the School was one of the highlights of the celebrations and will be a lasting reminder of the anniversary. The Supper Dance held at No. 9 Darling Street in March as part of the celebrations was most successful socially and financially and enabled us to send a cheque to the School. We thank all Old Collegians and friends who supported the occasion. Because of the special functions during this, our Jubilee Year, we did not have our usual number of 50 cent Coffee Parties but our thanks to those who helped in this direction and our thanks in advance to those who are planning parties during this financial year. Similarly, we decided to defer our April Reunion for this year but .our August Reunion was a special occasion, as it was the last official visit by

Miss Shaw as our Principal, and sadly we said " Goodbye ". We cannot adequately express our thanks to Miss Shaw for the devotion she has shown to the School and the understanding and guidance she has so willingly given to all those who were fortunate enough to be her students. Her influence helped shape the traditions of Morongo and has been taken by girls into all walks of life. We all wish Miss Shaw a happy retirement and a well-earned rest. Best wishes to the Geelong Branch and to our sister branches. Our Committee: President: Lorna Hooper. Treasurer: Min Thompson. Secretary: Joan Swain. Elsie Bishop, Sue Brown, Elaine Howden, Cathy Maconachie, Faye Lee and Phyllis Orchard. Joan Swain, Secretary.

WESTERN DISTRICT BRANCH Annual Report, 1970 I have pleasure in presenting the Annual Report of the Western District Branch of the Morongo Old Collegians' Msociation. Many members were able to attend the various special functions arranged to celebrate the Jubilee of Morongo earlier this year. In particular, a large number enjoyed a happy and exciting day at the Old Collegians Luncheon and Garden Party. Our own Jubilee Church Service was held at St. Andrew's, Colac, on Sunday, 15th April when a good attendance of members welcomed Miss Shaw and Eathorne Pavia. Twenty girls from the School's Senior Choir travelled to Colac with Miss Habersberger to lead the singing in the service. Readings were taken by the Head Prefect Judith Clutterbuck and branch secretary Lexie Stray. We deeply appreciate the work and interest put into this service by Rev. W. B. Hastie of St. Andrew's. This year we departed from our usual practice of a catered luncheon and entertained our visitors to a casserole luncheon in St. Andrew's Hall. This function was greatly enjoyed, and it is felt that the added freedom of move-

ment associated with a buffet style meal contributed much to the success of the day. Miss Shaw gave us an interesting report on the news of Morongo. The news of the retirement of our much loved Principal, Miss Shaw fills us all with thoughts of gratitude for her many years of magnificent service to Morongo. Miss Shaw's contribution to the development of the School will never be forgotten and we wish her a happy and rewarding retirement. We welcome Miss Brookshaw to the life of Morongo, and assure her of our good wishes and the continuing support of our branch. The annual meeting was held at the home of our joint President, Jessie Beckmann, on 3rd October and we welcomed Miss Shaw and Eathorne Pavia from Geelong. The new office-bearers are:— President: Jessie Beckmann. Secretary: Lexie Stray, 158 Hearn St., Colac, 3250. Treasurer: Jessy Borwick. We were sorry to say farewell during the year to Rev. and Mrs. W. B. Hastie from St. Andrew's, Colac. Rev. Hastie has always welcomed us to St. Andrews for our annual Church Service, and his interest, and that of his wife Jessie will be greatly missed. We extend our good wishes to those members who have become engaged or have married during the past year, or who have welcomed new babies into their families. Our sympathy is extended to those who have suffered the loss of loved ones. To those who have shown such interest and support in our branch particularly Miss Shaw, and Eathorne Pavia from the Geelong Branch, we say a sincere thank you. Lexie Stray, Secretary.

Jessy Borwick, Treasurer. WIMMERA BRANCH Annual Report, 1970 I have much pleasure in presenting the 1970 Annual Report of the Wimmera Branch of Old Collegians. Once again, Jean (Williams) Hanna kindly opened her lovely home " Droylesden," 145 Baillie Street, Horsham for our 7th Annual Reunion, it was another enjoyable day for the 30 Old Collegians present and, in appreciation, Anna (McBain) Miller presented Jean with the book " Morongo — the First Fifty Years " and a dried flower spray. Miss Shaw, Miss Jean Rentoul and Mrs. Eathorne Pavia willingly travelled from Geelong, giving us news of Jubilee celebrations and present activities of the School and Old Collegians. All who travelled to Geelong for the Jubilee celebrations in February voted it a most happy and successful weekend. Our thanks to the Members of the Council, Miss Shaw and staff, and Old Collegians. Congratulations to our President Janice (King) Russell on the birth of a son — Timothy David — in her absence, Vice-President Ida (Brewster) Bourke extended a welcome to all, and despite the rain outside, those present enjoyed a lovely casserole luncheon while meeting friends again and the usual natter.

Wimmera Branch donated $240.00 towards the Old Collegians gift of an Organ to the School. Norma (Hoffman) Dymke played exerpts from her husband's tape recordings of the Jubilee Dinner and Church Service, enjoyed by all especially those unable to be present at Geelong on that happy weekend. While Doreen (Phillips) Cowperthwait's husband is Manager of the Bank of New South Wales at Warracknabeal, we are happy to have her join in our reunions, many taking advantage of having their books of "Morongo, — the First Fifty Years " personally autographed. Office-bearers for the coming year are as follows:— President: Ida (Brewster) Bourke, Donald. Vice-Presidents: Anna (McBain) Miller, Horsham. Lois (Hanna) Ward, Donald. Secretary/Treasurer: Rona (Bennett) Schilling, Katyil. Committee: Janice (King) Russell, Jan (McDonald) Dahlenburg, Jenny (Anderson) Heard. Congratulations to Lois (Hanna) Ward and Isabelle (King) Flett on the birth of daughters. The Secretary apologizes for the omission of Norma (Hoffman) Dymke's name as Honorary Life Member of Wimmera Branch from the book " Morongo — the First Fifty Years." Though realizing it must come, we are sorry to hear of Miss Shaw's pending retirement and on behalf of Wimmera Branch, Ida Bourke presented Miss Shaw with a dry arrangement and a locally mounted brooch as a token of appreciation of ler interest in our Branch and her years as Principal of " Morongo ". The meeting closed with the singing of the School Song then afternoon tea was served to sustain the girls for their long drives home again. Our next reunion — 1st May 1971, will be at the home of Mrs. Ida (Brewster) Bourke, " Donabeal," Areegra (approximately half way between Don-

Page Eighty-Six


ald and Warracknabeal), luncheon, meeting and afternoon tea, and all Old Collegians are welcome. Our best wishes to all Old Collegians for another happy and successful year. Rona S.

GOULBURN VALLEY BRANCH Annual Report, 1970 The Annual Reunion was held at St. Andrew's " Shepparton on the 9th of August. It again took the form of a buffet luncheon, Annual Meeting and Church Service and was much enjoyed by the thirty-one members present. We were pleased to have Miss Shaw, Miss Rentoul and Mrs. Pavia with us and they capably covered the events of the Jubilee weekend. Several of our members attended the functions and had a wonderful time meeting old friends and seeing " Morongo " again - much changed to many of course. It was sad to realize it was Miss Shaw's last visit to us as Principal and we wished her well for the future and gave her a gold bracelet. We welcome the news of the appointment. of Miss Brookshaw and hope to meet her at a future reunion.

IN MEMORIAM It was a very great shock to all those who knew Helen Lang to read of her recent tragic death in a plane accident. Helen was seven years at Morongo, she worked hard, she played hard, she gave of her best to the School and she received much from the School. After completing her training at the Alfred she went on to the Queen Victoria for her second certificate, for she had her eyes on the Aerial Ambulance and knew that the more experience she had the better were her chances of acceptance. She spent nine months with the Ambulance and enjoyed every minute of her time. As one paper said " Helen Lang was in love with the world, with nursing and with flying," and if any proof was needed of the mark she made on that world it was evident in that small country Church, which could not contain the elderly and the young who were her friends. Our sympathy goes out to her parents, her fiance Bob Mitton and Jess and Isabel Lang, her aunts. We were indeed shocked to hear of the tragic death of Isabel Denney, (Ayre) in the early part of this year. Isabel was a boarder at the School for five years while her parents lived at Shelford. During that time she took a lively part in School activities being a good sport and making both House and School teams, as well as being Athletics Champion in her age group on several occasions. From Morongo she went on to Invergowrie and subsequently did her training as a nurse. Married to Geoff Denney, she lived in the Cobden area. Her two girls, Jane

and Anne are boarders at the School. Our deep sympathy is extended to her family, her mother and her sister. Another Old Collegian died this year. Kathleen Diddums (Mathison) was one of the original Roslyn girls, a very good students and a keen sport. After completing her education she took nursing as a career and before her marriage spent many fruitful years in her profession. We extend our sympathy to her family in their loss. Word has just been received from England of the death of Marianne Trezise. We do extend our deepest sympathy to her family in this tragic loss. BITS AND PIECES Congratulations to those responsible for forming the South Australian Branch — a delightful evening was held at the home of Dorothy Newman, on 18th July, when Miss Shaw and Jean Rentoul were present. Others who enjoyed this get together were — Nancy Mann, Janette Drake, Ruth Marshall, Jean McDonald, Lesley Broadfoot, Carolyn Harvey, Marjory Stuckey, Barbara Hanlon, Susan Bromwell, Wendy Oakley, Carol Harry, Joyce Harvey, Marjorie Lucas, Mrs. F. Bryce, Mrs. A. Rugless and Mrs. P. Javelin. The next reunion is in October at the home of Lesley Broadfoot. Learning the art of Motel Management at the Commodore, Glen Osmond, when Miss Shaw was there, were Stella Pullin (Lamont) and her husband. They were hoping to take over the Management of one of these Motels in Victoria. Truda Howard was recently awarded a Doctorate of Philosophy at the Melbourne University. Her thesis was about the ecology of myrtle beech. She now has a position with the Associated Forest Holdings in Burnie and will be working specifically on the problems of eucalypts in the Tasmanian Forests. Truda recently spent three months with two zoologists surveying the Little Desert for the Department of Fisheries and Wildlife. Denise Hargreaves firmly believes that Guiding is exciting and adventurous — " Young people dont have to

Page One Hundred and Four


steal cars or take drugs for kicks — there are still plenty of healthy activities that are far more exciting." Denise has just returned from a two month tour observing Guiding in other countries — she is Assistant Adviser for Rangers in the Victorian Girl Guides. At present she is teaching at Yarra Valley Grammar School, Ringwood. Heather Taylor (Wallace) is at present in Instanbul with her husband and two of her girls. Gough is Medical Officer attached to the Australian Immigration Department in Turkey. For eighteen months Kath Honey was nursing in a remote highland village in New Guinea with an Anglican Mission — later she came down to Gona on the coast. Now she is in Europe having a working holiday, having reached England after a most interesting bus trip from Katmandu, through India, Pakistan, Iran, Turkey and across Europe. Christine and Fay McKenzie who are at present in England, flew over in the " Under 26 " tour and intend to return on that same bus tour which takes seventy days back to Katmandu and thence by air to Melbourne. Deanne Hindson (Jones) is now living at Kyabram where her husband is teaching. Deanne is on the Staff of the hospital and is kept very busy with her nursing, housework and social life. Betty Van Groningen is now in her third year nursing at Geelong Hospital and hopes to visit her homeland when she completes her course. Vicki Paterson is with the Geelong Regional Library and is now one of the buyers for the Mobile Libraries. Noni is finishing her nursing at the Geelong Hospital. Lynette Peel has added another set of letters to her name — her first being Master of Agricultural Science (Melb.) and now Ph.D. (Monash) in History of Agriculture. For her thesis Lynette took the Early History of Agriculture for 50 years from 1838 — the location, around the Geelong and Melbourne districts. She is now at the Arthur Rylah Research Centre of the Wildlife and Fisheries at Heidleberg, where she is colating experiements and research for publishing purposes.

Helen Millikan is at present Sister in Charge of a floor at Kardinia House, Geelong, while Lois is at the Eye and Ear Hospital, Melbourne. Jill Muller has been overseas and is home again. Williams (Lindsay) and Judy Adrienne Solomon (Clarke) had a wonderful tour w Japan and Expo 70 — some of us saw their slides wnich were most interesting. Old Collegians on the Staff at Morongo during the year included — Margaret Henaerson, Jean Rentoul, Edith Leigh, Beverley Egan, Barbara Webb, Marlene Barber, Marie Kershaw, Gwen Blakiston and Sally Odgers. The Jubilee functions at the beginning of the year proved to be of very great interest to all Old Collegians and their loyalty to the School was evident by their attendance at most of the celebrations. The highlight was the Reunion and Garden Party when over 400 took part and enjoyed the luncheon and the meetings with some who had not been back since they left the School. Overseas girls who made the trip were Nora Sutorius (Valk) from Holland and Joanna Pyper from British Columbia, others from distances included Margaret Harvey (Ellis) Tasmania, Heather McMillan (McDonald) New Zealand, Melba McGlypn (Marshall) Northern New South Wales, Alison Lloyd (Williams) Sydney, Nancy Mann (Gray), Jean McDonald (Walker) and Jeanette Drake (Walker) from South Australia, while Miss Hope came from Western Australia. It was also a great delight to many to welcome back Mr. Blackwood, an ex chaplain, for the Service on the Sunday morning. Many girls will remember Brenda Blake whose father was for three years at Alcoa. Brenda is now in her third year of Colleg in the U.S.A. and is ambitious to go into the Administration Department of College when she gradlades. She represents her Campus, which numbers 15,000 students, in the State Capital, working with State Governments on Colleg eproblems. She is Chairman of the Leadership Conference, writes for the paper, and is a leader in the Youth for Christ Movement. Brenda

is very conscious of and very grateful for the fine start Morongo gave her. AIR HOSTESSING

So you want to be an Air Hostess? This thought crept into my mind and stayed when I first considered hostessing. I guess I had pictures of glamorous young ladies, always smiling, always perfectly groomed and never flustered, flitting about from City to City. Needless to say I did not think the airline would consider me as a possible candidate, but they accepted me, so I set off to Melbourne to start my training. Here I joined 25 other girls from different States for the schooling period of five weeks. We attended lectures all day and were given reams of notes to be learned off by heart, about aircraft and their various emergency equipment. We were examined on this once a week so that a constant check of our progress could be kept. Finally we were fitted into uniforms and assigned to Senior Hostesses for our " In Flight " training. At last I felt like a hostess! This In Flight ' training also lasted for five weeks and then we were left on our own for two weeks before graduation. Graduation consisted of three days of lectures, exams and finally the ceremony itself when we were presented with our " Wings." Each year brings promotion and this is shown by a Bar added to the wings. The work is often hard and the hours long, but the rewards are great. I thought I would miss my usual 13 weeks holiday from Morongo, but this job is like being on one long vacation. We may spend two days in Darwin one week and then a week later we are enjoying a twenty-four hour stop over in Perth. This gives us ample time to see the Cities by night and day and also some of the surrounding areas. Perth is my favourite City, the people are just so friendly it is quite amazing. Then there is Sydney, all rush and bustle and terribly impersonal. Adelaide is a quiet serene place, as is Canberra. Brisbane is a slow and ponderous place, owing to the climate, its the same in

Darwin and Alice Springs. Tasmania is like a little England to fly over, with its hedges and fields. We carry many celebreties on our flights. I have had such people as Sergio Mandes, Johnny Young, The Mixtures and also Members of Parliament, Mr. Whitlam, Mr. Lynch and Mr. Bates. Some days the flight is really great, the passengers can be a lot of fun and sometimes they can be quite difficult. this is where self-control plays a big part, we have to just smilingly agree and be polite. We do have some amusing incidents at times. One day a Hostess was giving a life jacket demonstration — these have to be shown on flights to Tasmania, Perth and New Guinea — as she was walking down the aisle pointing out the features of the jacket the girl demonstrating said " To inflate the jacket pull the red knobs smartly downwards," whereupon a rather -intoxicated gentleman pulled the knobs and of course the jacket inflated. When fully inflated it is tight and uncomfortable around the neck and in her effort to get out of it in front of the plane load of people, her wig flew off into the aisle — most embarrasing for the Hostess, but most amusing for the people! I think the Morongo girls who have already flown with us have enjoyed their flights. It might be quite interesting if I were on one of their flights to see if they thought me still as " grumpy " as I no doubt was when working at Morongo!! I do hope I will see some of you flying in the very near future — you will get V.I.P. treatment! Lea Chapman,
