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 />

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 />
Details on games each week will be posted on<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 />

here at ICMS on the netball courts, and 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 />
