1989 School Magazine

H IRSCH FE LD CAT-CH HIRSCHFELD lF YOU CAN! The other houses are still trying! With Carfield the cat there to suppoft us again this year, Hirschfeldians exploded into 1989 with as much enthusiasm and colour as their ORANCE shirts displayed. Our famous colour has outshone every city council worker and his uniform for miles. Only Hirschfeldians could devour ten blocks of chocolate, fifteen bags of lollies, twenty bags of chips, over three hun- dred pieces of Kentucky Fried Chicken and still parade in the Miss Hirschfeld competition, deafen boarders with war- cries, watch a video and survive an aerobics lesson with Emma Woodall and team! (Look out, Jane Fonda.) Yes, all this and more was enjoyed, devoured, laughed at and sweated over at the annual Hirschfeld Barbecue. I mean, what more could the Crade 8's possibly ask for as their initi- ation into the best house in the schooi?

Our house proved to be tough competition in the swimming and athletics carnivals. Our loud war-cries were simply too much for some houses and we adopted a few new recruits on those days, not that the names of any Red lndians will be mentioned - l'm not having the scalping of any of their members on my conscience. These carnivals turned out to be very successful days and only strengthened Hirschfeld's house spirit. Anyway the accompanying photos tell the story although they leave out one of the most dynamic and witty members of the team - our house master, Mr Stuart. Long live his house assemblies! We really wouldn't have survived without his help and those amazing jokes! Keep up the spirit, Hirschfeld, and have a successful and even BRICHTER 1990 if that's possible.
