Am anda's outstanding, but veryironic speech (below) won her an invitation to attend the Sixth National Constitutional Convention held in Melbourne from 25 to 27 March

The Mathematics Faculty is pleased to offer opportunities for all students to experience maximum success in learning. Prior to the introduction of each new topic students have been assessed as to their background knowledge. This has enabled us to make available enrichment activities for those who already have a strong understanding of the concepts involved, as well as to take the time to provide concentrated assistance to students for whom the topic is unf;amifiar As part of this project, we conducted a 'get to know you day' for the different classes and their teachers,

At the beginning of this yearthe girlsin YearlO attended an in-house conference which focused on Service: a better vision for all. We were fortunate to have Dr. Mark Loane as our keynote speaker, who shared with the girls his passion and commitment to helping others. He is an Ophthalmic Surgeon and closely involved in a government eyecare program for indigenous people on Cape York Peninsular. Holly Smith, Year 2000 Old Girl was our other guest speaker who spoke of her own experiences on Service in Year I a and gave the girls some good advice - to give of themselves, be flexible and have a good sense of humour. Lana Hadgraft who coordinates the School club, Am an I, enthused the girls aboutthevaluableworkthatAmnestylnternational does through its volunteer task force, and a group of Year 11 girls shared their own YearlO experiences through some creative skits The conference was a great success. Feedback from the girls was positive. However, the test would be in the attitudes and performance of the girls in the field throughoutthe year. Three classes went outin Term One and the reports that came back, both from the girls and their supervisors. spoke of commitment. enjoyment, awareness of others and a sense of fulfilment. in this Yearofthe Vdunteer; ms all about making a difference We are very grateful to the organisations that take our students Sometimes having people in to help - especially new faces every term, means extra work. Here is a representative selection of comments taken from girls' personal reports, and some evaluations written by supervisors. These evaluations are from busy people in responsible positions with organisations to run. They are matching our students' performances against real-life demands

Some weeks were busier than others. We did some photocopying and cleaning out of cupboards -jobs which allowed other people time to do importantjobs.
