on 654 points, a massive 96 points clear of the rapidly
improving Strathdon, who relegated last year’s winners
Wilberforce into third position. The War Cry competition was
won for the second successive year by Cornwallis. Claremont
capped off a very successful day by finishing second in the
war cry with Melville in third. Congratulations to Claremont on
their fantastic achievement and to all our students and staff,
particular Mr Anthony Kelshaw who organised the carnival, for
making the day such a huge success.
Additionally, since that last edition of Revelations, the Junior
School Swimming Carnival was held at Richmond pool. It was
here that our 2019 Middle Years Prefects did an excellent
job of helping our staff in staging the event. I was fortunate
enough to be able to attend part of the carnival and witnessed
our prefects doing a great job timing races, conducting novelty
events and whipping up plenty of house spirit amongst the
Junior School students. The Junior School staff was very
appreciative of our prefects’ assistance. This week has also
seen our Middle Years Prefects start a new initiative providing
help to our Canteen staff in serving the Junior School students.
It is great to see their willingness to serve our school and they
have started their year as prefects in fine style!
Senior prefects have also had a busy start to the year. In
addition to all the swimming carnival organisation, our
prefects also conduct our annual ‘65 Roses for Cystic Fibrosis’
fundraiser. This involves the pre selling, ordering and de-
thorning of a large number of roses. Prefects then write and
attaching message tags to each rose before delivering them
to students. Prefects commenced this process at 7.30 on the
morning with Miss Paragalli’s classroom resembling a wholesale
florist before school when the production line was in full swing.
