BREAKER<br />

<strong>College</strong> Social Life<br />

By Sasha Zavadskaya<br />

Another Icebreaker has come our way! With<br />

our great SRC team that helped to organise, it<br />

was another fun night out.<br />

It was great to see true college spirit to those<br />

who come out and enjoyed a few drinks. Even<br />

though a smaller term, we all were driven on<br />

the ready-to-go busses down to manly,<br />

exploring Sable Bar first and continued our<br />

night at the New Brighton Hotel.<br />

For those students who managed to survive<br />

Icebreaker, we organised Feel The B@ss party.<br />

This Round TWO started at the B@ssment,<br />

playing pool, having couple <strong>of</strong> drinks and<br />

rocking at the dancefloor. After we went down<br />

to finish our night at Shark Bar.<br />

DON’T miss our<br />

COOTS<br />

Rugby News<br />

Reported By Rebecca Wise<br />

The ICMS Rugby Team, also known as the<br />

Bandicoots has been re-established by a group<br />

<strong>of</strong> ICMS students, at the forefront <strong>of</strong> this was<br />

Greg Farrell and Reggie Howard, who in the<br />

February 2012 term set up a Sign Up and<br />

recruited a fantastic 25 players for the team!<br />

The Bandicoots are playing as part <strong>of</strong> the<br />

Forest Rugby Club, whom play in the Suburban<br />

Rugby Competition in <strong>Sydney</strong>. The team play<br />

each Saturday in the new kit, which is Red<br />

White and Blue – the ICMS Colours.<br />

SCOREBOARD<br />

Currently coming 4 th in the table after 9<br />

rounds, the Coots (as they are known on the<br />

field) have a fantastic chance to win the<br />

competition with fierce competition amongst<br />

Mosman, Colleagues (Woollahra) and Petersham.<br />

We would like to encourage any students (or<br />

staff) who have some free time on Saturdays to<br />

come down and watch the Coots Play.<br />

Facebook and also on the student noticeboard<br />

around the campus.<br />

Netball News<br />

Reported By Kirralee Glass<br />

2012 has been the first year for netball at ICMS,<br />

with the ICMS BandiCutes – dominating the<br />

Manly-Warringah Competition.<br />

Headed by Captain Kirralee Glass and Vice-<br />

Captain Sarah Ieroianni, the team <strong>of</strong> ten (10)<br />

girls have won four (4) <strong>of</strong> five (5) games they<br />

have played, currently standing at Fourth (4 th )<br />

on the ladder. However with one more round<br />

to play (six games) they are set to make it to<br />

the semi-finals, hoping to ultimately win the<br />

grand finals at the beginning <strong>of</strong> September.<br />

BECOME A BANDICUTE<br />

The team trains on Tuesday afternoons right<br />

here at ICMS on the netball courts, and play<br />

each Saturday afternoon at Curl Curl Netball<br />

under Narrabeen Netball Club, but are hoping<br />

to develop and play as a separate ICMS team in<br />

future university competitions.<br />

We encourage any staff, students and others to<br />

come to along to Curl Curl Netball courts and<br />

cheer us on as we play.<br />

Whether living on campus, at home with family, or exploring<br />

the untold mysteries <strong>of</strong> shared living... Money is unmistakably<br />

short for college students. With this being said, at this stage in<br />

our adult lives socialising has become paramount and we find<br />

ourselves <strong>of</strong>ten sacrificing activities due to empty wallets. Well<br />

this is where I come in. In an attempt to explore Manly myself,<br />

I will research and review affordable restaurants, cafes and<br />

bars so that you, my fellow students may avoid the hazards <strong>of</strong><br />

pretentious and overly priced meals, making you seriously<br />

consider starvation as an alternative!<br />

<strong>Service</strong>:<br />

Ambience:<br />

This week I stumbled across ‘Mortar and Pestle’ a small Thai<br />

restaurant positioned neatly on Darley Rd, a stones throw from<br />

The Corso. Simple and contemporary furnishings stray from<br />

the usual ‘holiday in Thailand vibe’ creating a relaxing and<br />

intimate atmosphere. With young couples and small families<br />

occupying the restaurant I am at least assured <strong>of</strong> the general<br />

public’s appreciation for Thai cuisine. Closely armed with two<br />

friends we are seated at a small table near the back. The tables<br />

are positioned quite close together making any personal<br />

conversations impractical with our neighbours dining so close.<br />

The menu provides an array <strong>of</strong> exotic and somewhat familiar<br />

meal options, all with a full list <strong>of</strong> ingredients to make the<br />

selection process easier. After glancing at the photos also<br />

provided in the menu; I selected my favourite ‘Chicken Pad<br />

Thai’ and we call over the waitress waiting patiently to the side.<br />

After a very frustrating conversation, we are led to believe our<br />

meals are being prepared. Apart from also being casually<br />

dressed and without a uniform, the staff (with whom English is<br />

their second language) struggled to take our order. After<br />

another 10 minute exchange we have our drink order (3 s<strong>of</strong>t<br />

drinks) set.<br />

Although ordering was slightly awkward and challenging, the<br />

food was prepared almost instantly! After a quiet moment to<br />

ourselves to comment on the experience this far, the meals<br />

began being delivered (separately, which was also slightly<br />

annoying). Once we were all served our meals and finished<br />

convincing the waitress no additional extras were required we<br />

ventured to taste our selections. My meal was delicious!<br />

Perhaps containing a little bit more egg then necessary; but<br />

delightful all the same! The large portions left us taking home<br />

extras for lunch the next day, which wasn’t bad for a meal<br />

under $20. I therefore strongly encourage you all to go and<br />

check it out if you haven’t already. Although the service left<br />

something to be desired, it provides a cheap meal and an<br />

entertaining night for an intimate gathering <strong>of</strong> friends.


Shop 8,<br />

9-15 Central Ave<br />

Manly, NSW, 2095<br />

Mint Shop was founded as a men's and women's<br />

boutique in the NSW Northern Beaches suburb <strong>of</strong><br />

Manly.<br />

Mint Shop quickly became a household name in the<br />

local area and grew quickly with popularity. It was<br />

not before long that word spread and saw customers<br />

traveling great distances to shop at Mint.<br />

From recognition <strong>of</strong> this Mint Shop Online was born.<br />

It was created as an extension <strong>of</strong> the Mint Shop<br />

boutique to make shopping easier for our customers<br />

that (or want to but cannot) travel far and wide to<br />

shop with us.<br />

Mint Shop showcases some <strong>of</strong> the best Australian<br />

and <strong>International</strong> labels around for both men and<br />
