        tennis racquet. Of course, the girls are not outshone. Alayne Smith,
        Beverley Pickering and Camilla Andrew are fine ball-game players,
        while Charmaine Easten represented seven of the Intermediate basket
        ball team. Wendy Eames, who has won many cups and also came third
        in Q.L.D., is our champion swimmer.
            We feel that we have nearly the making of a band with our
        musicians. Jeanette Sands, Jocelyn Senden, Beverley Pickering, Bill
        Hase, Lance Duke, and Peter Parker learn the piano. Maurice Doube
        (bagpipe), Wayne Perry (banjo), Trevor Shepherd (guitar), Garren
        Leatherbarrow (drums).
            Peter Parker and Ray McMahon are the class comedians, bringing
        many a ray of sunshine into our room with their well-timed and some
        times unconscious wise cracks.
            As final word, this is Form captains, Charmaine Easten and Robert
        Allen on behalf of 2A, wishing all candidates success in the forthcoming
        examinations.

            Our chief humourist (he thinks so) is Ian Spray and he always
        tries to keep the class awake with his “stale” jokes.
            Altogether we have a good time and here’s wishing you all good
        luck in the coming examinations.


                                FORM 2C
            Our room is 15A and we have Mr. Maccoll as our teacher. We are
        a happy, co-operative and intelligent (?) group of children, with Aileen
        Barr and Robin Ricketts as Form Captains.
            During June and July, while Mr. Maccoll was on sick leave, we had
        Mr. McCallum as relieving teacher.
            The approach of our Scholarship Examination has caused most of
        us to do more study, and we hope that we do credit to ourselves and our
        teachers when the results are published.
            We have our share of members in school sporting teams, as you
        will observe.
            Footballers : R. Ricketts (captain of school 6st. 101b. Rugby
        League Metropolitan Premiers), Tony Jennings (7st. 71b.) represented
