TEUKAEMIA COMMITTEE REPORT we began this year with great hopes and ideas. we were confident of raising the required $1,000 within the first half of the year; however, as in previous years ou r aspirations far exceeded the reality. our first biS fundraising effort for the year was a cold cups stall at the swimming carnival. This was shortly followed by a sweet stall and cake drive. Tickets were continually being sold for the Screen Print Raff le which was eventually drawn in August. One of our ever faithful leaders, Mrs. Thomas, was fortunate enough to win this lovely Screen print. (P.S. This was not rigged). Let us not forget that rather ill fated lamington drive. You may ask what lamington drive? Well, the one we held in the last few weeks of Second Term. The response was, how shall we put it, not great; but we managed to make a small profit. We also held a"Guess the number of M & M's in the Jar" competition and a Plain Clothes Day in Fourth Term. We atternpted to sell our second Screen Print in the Old Girls' Art Show. Unfortunately,it wasn't sold. Oh well, there's always next year. The Committee has never been large and in fact only two levels were represented this year: crade B and 12 accompanied by one lone Grade 10. Next year we hope that the school will show more general support and participation for th" group and make their job easier and more rewarding Thanks must go to Mrs. Hukins and Mrs. Thomas, for without their undying support, encouragement and cars, we probably would have killed ourselves. Best of luck to the girls in f utu re years; let's h it that $1,001 mark !

This year has been a particularly interesting one for the Student Representative Council, incorporating many varied and taxing tasks f or ou r band of faithf u I followers. we have witnessed the "P.E Uniform" surveys, resulting in P.E. Uniform being accepltable for before 7.00 a.m. arrivals, and "n/here do I shop?" surveys which were aimed at gaining discounts from movie complexes, shops and for entrance as students at places most fre- quented by Crammar girls. This was held in conjunction with our ever-popular l.D. cards. Finan.!ng was left in the capable hands of Robyn- An n Hartland, Who soon learnt the joys of cou nting cash (und the sorrows of parting with it) and Stephanie Sibtey became our number one secret ?rf teven taking minutes in moments of extreme eff iciency. with Lexie Mooney's insighl and wit, and my "How to run a meeting" (ut learnt by all Zenith members) we coped admirably with such calamities as The Toilet Paper Crisis, and Stand-down. on a more serious note we achieved Drama Pockets, gloves became an acceptable option in winter, dnd ties could be worn either f rom neck to bottom of blouse or tgp of pocket to bottom of blouse (as seen on Assembly). Flashes were re-introduced for the sports uniform, with an explanation on Assembly to explain what they were and how they could be purchased. ln an attempt to provide yet another service to the school, the SRC in cgnjynction with the Prefects ran several Coffee Shops wh ich had varying levels of success and attendance. True to tradition the SRC also ran film nights, with "The Blues Brothers" as our major attraction. This was accomp- anied by a Pizza Stall to provide nourishment between reels. (Our reps soon learnt their worth as chefs when asked to man lunch-hour pizza stalls of surplus food. They also learnt what "a friend in need" is really all about).Mr. Bromiley, as usual, lent assistance and gui- dance this year, and must be thanked for his continuing efforts. Lastly lwould like to thank all Reps, in particular the executive committee, who have worked so hard to make 1984 a memorable year.
