Sailing on Lake Rotorua has been very peaceful, with light or no wind. The sunburst yachts require team work to sail and the races around the buoys are a highlight for the students as they master the knots, techniques and intricacies of sailing.

The painting (see front cover of this newsletter) was commissioned by the 2012 leavers, who raised just over $5,000 to fund Mr Schofield’s trip out to New Zealand. Mr Schofield is a well-known artist in the United States of America and has been responsible for commemorating many important occasions in US history – including work commissioned by the Defense Department as part of a memorial for the 11 th September attack on the Pentagon. One of his works hangs in a gallery for the Arlington National Cemetery (the only painting to hang there), which is seen by most of the 7 million visitors a year. Mr Schofield finished painting the 2012 leavers gift in the Dining Room and many of our Art and History classes were given presentations from our ‘Artist in Residence’ during his four week visit. Mr Schofield has also just finished an ANZAC commemorative painting for the Returned Services Association and the Department of Veteran’s Affairs. This painting will be used as the official print for the commemoration of the 1915 Gallipoli Campaign. We appreciated Gary Schofield giving so much of his time, thought and energy to produce a magnificent painting which will hang permanently in the School’s recently renovated Dining Room. 40 The Informer St Paul’s Collegiate School
