The aim of the tou r was f u lf illed, in that everyone had an enjoyable and successf ul 1gB4 season. On behalf of all the girls we would like to thank Miss Williamson (Hockey), Janelle Derrington (Netball), Peter Sinden (Tennis) and Miss Dempsey (Volleyball) for their support and encouragement on the tour. A special thank you to our manageress Mrs. Pauline Harvey-Short, without whom the tou r wou ld not nearly have been so enj oyable. Your enthusiasm was greatly uppreciated!! Thank you also to all those people who helped to raise money for the trip especially the committee. The tour was great fun and we hope that students in the f uture will have the same opportunity that we did. An n Harrap Kylie Yu le
