the athletic teams. Rodney Close played cricket for the school and
came second in the open high jump (what a pity his legs aren’t half an
inch longer).
To keep the peace we have two cadets, Graham Browning and
Rodney Close; the latter has won his Crossed Rifles.
In other fields of activity we have been busy, too; eight girls are
in the choir, and eleven took part in Inter-House Debates, Janice,
Loretta, and Cherrie doing very well; we were pleased with the result
of our tuck-shop early in the year, and many were able to help with the
school fete.
Will you help us to buy Christmas presents for our teachers? For
Mr. Cox we want a box of chalk (to eat), for Mr. Kingsbury a button
hook, for Mr. Griffith a piggy bank, for Mr. McCormack some tuneful
instruments for the cadet band, and for you a feather duster to save
you from having to dust the table with your handkerchief.
Doesn’t all this prove how thoughtful and public-spirited we are ?
Your ever-obedient,

FORM 3D
Form 3D consists of nine girls who consider themselves to be the
“Cooks” of the school. We are doing most of the cooking for the cadets
passing-out parade. Our Form teacher, Mr. McCormack, said that until
now he didn’t know the reason for it being called the “Passing-out”
Parade.
We are also responsible for the cleaning of Mr. Perry’s and Mr.
Garrett’s offices. Our Form captains are Denise Barr and Noeleen
Chantier. Joyce Russell is our best student as she came top in exam.
Lesley Gardner has honoured us by being in the B team in tennis,
while Kathleen Russell plays basketball and Wendy Cutlack was in the
G.P.S. and State Secondary School Sports. Charmaine Norbury,
Beverley Barbaler, Delma Rodwell and Lesley Gardner were speakers
for the inter-House Debates.
Joyce is an assistant ballet dancing teacher, Delma plays the piano
and Noeleen is a very enthusiastic guide and is hoping to earn her
Queen Guide Badge. Many thanks to Miss Golliker and the other
teachers who have taught us throughout the year.
