Sixth Forrn <strong>Society</strong><br />

Since <strong>the</strong> last issue <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Southwellian</strong> <strong>the</strong> Sixth Form Socierv<br />

has been reasonably active, although it has not been able to <strong>of</strong>ier iti<br />

undeniably effcient services to <strong>the</strong> Garden Fete and o<strong>the</strong>r school<br />

activities, due to <strong>the</strong>ir absence from <strong>the</strong> curriculum this year.<br />

Papers have been presented on a wide diversity <strong>of</strong> subjects,<br />

rilging from Islam", through "Impressions <strong>of</strong> Jugoslavia'i, rc<br />

"Venical Take-<strong>of</strong>f Aircraft". We<br />

-ro-our<br />

are also indebred leained<br />

visiting lecrurers, bur in panicular ro Mr. J. K. B. Ball., B.A. for<br />

his praclically demonsrrated leclure on "Bee Keeping".<br />

<strong>The</strong> visits <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> society have been as diverse and almost as<br />

numerous as <strong>the</strong> papers, since we have visited such places as Boots.<br />

<strong>the</strong> new Playhouse, Stoke Bardolph Sewage Vorks -and <strong>the</strong> Assize<br />

LOUrtS.<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Society</strong> has evolved a "new, improved" streamlined constiturion<br />

from <strong>the</strong> one devised last year. This was due mainly to <strong>the</strong> Societv<br />

becoming tired with "Vhere I went for my holidays!' lectures.<br />

\V'ith this "new" constitution we hope to function amidst<br />

luxurious surroundings in <strong>the</strong> new school jusi as well if nor better as<br />

we have done, in <strong>the</strong> past, with <strong>the</strong> old constitution in that,,crumblins<br />

pile", <strong>the</strong> old school.<br />

Summet 1962-1964<br />

During <strong>the</strong> last two years <strong>the</strong> society has had somewhat mixed<br />

suceess, bur while perhaps few in numbers it is certainly nor Iackins<br />

in enterprise, e,g. rhe wide variery <strong>of</strong> trips and excursions over <strong>the</strong>se<br />

last two years. On July 25th, 1962 <strong>the</strong> society visited various motive<br />

power depots in I-ondon (Stratford, Hi<strong>the</strong>r Green, etc.) and in spite<br />

<strong>of</strong> 'heavy' wea<strong>the</strong>r was compensated by <strong>the</strong> large number'<strong>of</strong> locomoiive<br />

types seenJ most <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>m steam. <strong>The</strong> traditional November half-term<br />

visit that year was to Birmingham (7 installations visited) and our<br />
