Anlied with tlae pressure on students is thc telribtre pressure on the teachers wilo laave eocntimuous marle- ing Soad together wittra fnequemt maoderatiom meet- ings. T"o naost stuldents tlaese appear to he eompnctely useless. T'here is now inereasing criticisna of the Radford systexn as it treeomaes apparent to more and more people that it is produeing a generation of students with bareXy any solid basic hnownedge on wlaieh to base funther edueation. tsult in these eritieislns onc reads fue tlee press it is always a teacher or a pnof,essoa" wlao is voicing Xris opireion. Sttadents trave beem asked to neake comments on the seheme, but only in the form of Yes/No answers to a ready-made qulestionnaire. We would like to nnake our own conmfients. Feople realy seen'l to listen to students' oplnrons. We sXrould not wait to he asked. We shouXd uy to voice our opinions through the newspaper$ at least. As students, we slaould not sit hack apathetically and let tlais .joyless systern contimue to spoil the edueation of tlae younger students who will follow us. Somaething nxust be done before it is too [ate. Wnro was it who said "fufy edtaeation was ireterrupted by my sehooning?" This has sadXy becoraae no joke!

EE}TTSRJA"L, X"he first of the Radford guinea. pigs ar-e flrow eorn- ilag off the production line. ,Already, naany of thenil have laeaded for tertialy il'istittatioras. Some of us are now beginning to feel that not all of these students ane fulXy prepared for the eourses they rnay wish to axadertake. The eal.lse of this problern can be traced back, quite eorrectly, to the ftadford systerm of con- tinuouls assessrnent. Under tiais system students are required to con- eentrate on a particullar anea of, say, History, for almut five weeks. At the end of those five weehs the studesrt is suhjeeted to a test in whieh she usuatrly re- 'produrces all that she Xras lean'ned in that tirne. Wtrai often tiappens is that tlae student has a fair idea of the guestion and rhen proceeds to concentrate only on that qurestion and on no other aspect of that topic. Thc nesunt, of coul'se, is that -the student knows nothing of the topic as a whole and a year or even a rnontle later does not even nemember it any- way. This is no way to gain the basic knownedge tkrat is required before one embanks om any forrn of tenti. ary educationr. The Radford system is such tirat aln of us must work uneeasingtry arad witlaout relief throughout each sernester to keep up with the pace of testing and assignrnents. Om top of this we ffiust even work dur- ing the holidays sinee they are still geaned to the old ttrree terne system and not to the Sernester systema. As our school is independent of Goverrunemt .juris- diction, sulnely we could teke the initiatlve in chang- ing this situation. The result of our leaving to work incessantiy for tests is that we have lit-tie or no tirne to get to like a subjeet or to enter into extra- curricular activities. We rarely even teave ihe tirne to bury ourselves in a good book. Eecause the R.adford systenn is so test oniented, the emphasis is ail the timre on marks and not on learning for its own sake. trt is quite obvior.ls that the originators ofthe systern forgot or did not know that the basic purpose of education is to increase knowl- edge and not to gain marks. I wonder how rnany of them had ever been teachers?

Interact Club. Our first ma.jor activity this year was to be hosts for the ,Annual District 260 Interact Conference held on Sunday 9th fufarch. Represemtatives ofcXubs carne from as far nonth as N{aryboroteghr/tsurndaberg and a.n enjoyable day was had by atrl witll ai-r ex- change of ideas for fund raising and service pro.iects. We were sad to have to farewenl our Japanese ex- change student, Yoko Matsumoto, in k{arcir as she lead become an integral part of our school life. She is now studying at the univensity in Tokyo. However, on ,A,ugllst 23 we were happy to welcorne Katlay fu{c}damana ftom Conneticutt {.J.S.A., who will be spending the corning year witli us. We are also glad to report that oun past-hesident, Sue Thompson, is having a fantastic time and being a wonderful arn- bassadress for ,{ustralia in her year in U.S.A. as a Rotary exchange student. Before the weather becarne too cold the Interact organized a Marathon Swimathon where we con- tinually had someone swirnming up and down the school pool from 4.00 pm on the Friday afternoon to 4.00 pm on Saturday. nt was a jubilant but weary group of girls who clambered out of the water on the Saturday afternoon after hours of keeping at least 3 pmple awake to ensure that we did not miss our target, So complete were some people's exhaustion that they resorted to sleeping on the beaml! As fruit of our Xabour we raised $270 of which we donated $150 to SCF and the remainder with other funds raised during the year bought a much needed stereo- system for the music department. Our specific community project for the year was to raise funds in order that we might allow aborig- inal children to attend the OFAL holiday camp this coming.Ianuary. We were also fortunate enough to have a speaker from OFAX- who told us of its op- eration and as a result of this hopefully some of our Interactors will be leaders at the coming camp Our activities of community service include helping with the Keep Australia Beautiful Council, assisting the S.A. Red Shield Appeal, the Lifeline Door Knock and the Cancer Fund Door knock. Through the year the club has been active in fund raising. We have had various cake-stalls, raffled a food-hamper, organized the child-minding centre on School Day, and ran a film evening which was enjoyed by those who attended despite reels dropping off the projector, warped spools, bulbs being blown and other various mishaps. In Novem- ber we have planned to have a combined walk- athonlcyclathon with the SRC. We have also worked in conjunction with the Boys'Club in our various activities and ventures. The club would like to thank Mr. Logan who tras always come along to meetings with bright new suggestions and various pro.jects, Mn. T'homas, or.lr staff rep., Miss Skiaw, ottrer staff rnembers and parents - aXl who trave supported our various activities throughout tr 976. My personal thanks go to the committee who trave worked along with me and girtrs within the school who have given their assistance. Finally, good luck to the incorning office bearers for 1976fi7 and to ttre school public, consider becorning a member of the club for - "it is in giving that we receive."

This yean, the school was able to run its own camp in .Tuny, spec- i{ically organized for training in expedition. n would especially like to thank Mr. Eell and Mr. and IMrs. trn V{arch, several of the girls attended a Bronze Training Camp at Samford organized by the Gold A^wardeeg Society (G.A.S.). Upon the completion of this training, the girls are ableto undertake a Frac- Johnston for their help and assistance concea-ning the expedition section of the Scheme. DUKE @F' EPEB{BEJRGFS,AW,AR.& SCE{EIVHE T-he year began nather well for the rnembers of the Duke of Edinburgh Award Scherire within the sehool. Our numbers were boosted bv the entrance of many enthusiastic young Fourth tro'rmers into the Scheme. Also it was good to see some interest from the Fifth Forrners. Early in the year a Committee of Sixth Formers undergoing the Gold tr-evel of the Scherne was elected to assist IMrs. Torney, our organizer and co-ordinator of activities. w@ - The Design for T ,iving Section of the scherne pro- ceeded very well this year as again the girls were able to undertake sucir courses as "You and Your Friends" and "The Art of N{ake-up and Grooming" during thear Extension Education ,Activities (E.E.A.). Mrs. T'orney enabled these courses to run srnoothly by working iir co-operation with ttre E,.E.A. staff. Thank you Mrs. Torney. IVfrs. Chowdhury has beerr of great value to the girls regarding the Service Section of the Scheme. She kindly gave up much of her tirne to lecture on the value of Cornmunity Senvice to the girls who after the series of lectures, participated in such ser- vices as helping at the Children's hospitals, within the school library, lifesaving and first-aid. The interest section leaves everything ared any-. thing for the girls to pursue in their own time. Miss Cahill has been very active in giving the girls gui- dance where necessary. .[n these days of Wornen's l-lberation, the Award Scherne has also been forced to submit to the pres- sures of women's equality and a new syllabus has been adapted to comply with these pressures. -ilhe expedition section has become a little more demanding and reow giris have a choice between Design for Living or a Fhysical Activity. To cornplete the year, all of the girls involved in the Scheme are planning to attend a Fun Camp at Sarnford being organrzed by the Cornmittee with the help of sorne of the Fifth F'orrners. I would especiatrly like to thank lvnrs. Torney for all the advice, involvemeart and encouragemerit she has given to the glrls and the Scherne within tlie school.

The second ''4:r'{r#liw}ry|,! form girls are an increasing help. The school day theme of "Habitat" was most successful with model houses and habitat displays. The annual sale ofsecond-hand and new books was a great success. i!&.^.:, The acquisition of eight bean-bag chairs, donated by Mr. McPherson, has given us needed eKra seat- ing for the browsing area, the most well - used and often abused corner of the library. This year the library has been lucky with don- ations from teachers and with voluntary help from mothers and old girls of the school, Over 4,000 books have been added to the library. Let us hope that 1977 will see the continuation of good work and the prosperity of the library.

What a surprise it must have been when an animal came down to drink and found himself face to face with another creature, who did exactly the same things as he did (only back to front, silly beast) and refused to go away until he did. However, the ones who have al- ways been the most intrigued by these amazing hal- lucinations are women, especially the younger type. They have perfectly good reason to be, for when they look into a mirror they usually see a much morc pleasant sight than many other individuals. (Of course, some would say that this is a matter of opi- nion). Every woman (or girl) almost alwap wants to know what she looks like at various times, for various reasons. Those furtive glances at the shop windows as she walks down a busy slreet are not because she is really particularly interested in the factthatWoolworths is have yet another sale, or that the butcher is selling veal chops at ninety cents a pound. It's far more likely that she is checking up to see that her hair hasn't fallen down, or her makeup isn't smudged. What's more, it has probably taken her years to perfect the art, because although not many people notice, it takes a great amount of prac- tice to walk down the centre of a crowded pavement and at the same time look into the windows without seeming too obvious, and also without knocking over wery person she passes. At the age of about one this training begins, when, in prams the young girls delight in looking at them- selves as their mothers wheel them on the rounds, fascinated by their beauty and poise. Later, as tod- dlers they learn the tactic of pressing their noses against the mirror, so that they can see any little mark on their faces (as well as an extremely strange nose) and later, when their social life begins they en- joy twirling around to see their frilly skirts billow around their knees. Thus, by the age of ten most girls are prohcient in the basic techniques needed to continue their studies and to increase their exper- tise. After the age of about seven it becomes less desir- able for a girl to openly show any interest in herself, and therefore, if she is to save herself from many an embarrassing situation, she must be competent in lwo very important fields. Firstly, she must be capa- ble of taking in every little detail in one swift glance and secondly she must be able to spend a longer period of time studying herself if in doubt, but with- out being detected. She must be an excellent actress (as most women are) to make everybody believe that, she is really looking at the maitership of the painting (not her reflection in the glass mv-ering it) and that it was just by chance that she happeneil to look in the direction of a mirror at a certain mo- ment. If educated in this way, by the time the teenager emerges a girl is perfectly trained in keeping track of her appearance at almosthll times, and with practice this skill improves until such expertise is attained that even the most self-conscious of females muld be thought by the general public to be completely uncaring about her appearance.
