Rememberthe Ball will be on again at TudorCourt on July 4th, 1958 (please checkwith Mr. Tucker). Other social events includedtheatre nights and a snow trip inconjunction with the present day students.Two very successful and interestingnights were provided by Mr. Keller andKen SambeJI who described their overseastri ps with the a id of coloured s lides.A number of post students have returnedfrom overseas, therefore make it a pointto attend when the next review of experiencesis announced.We would appreciate the views ofmembers upon the types of out-doorfunctions that would interest them possibilities include hikes, barbecues,car trio I and treasure hunt, or evencombinations of these. These functionswould be organized with social gettogetherand good fun predominating,in order that members may get to knowone another. New and old past students,please never feel that you cannot cometo our functions because you do not15know the others - we will soon makeyou welcome. With this thought in mind,we ask all present-day graduates tojoin the Past Students' Association, sothat they may hope to retain and enlargeupon the friendships and interestsmade at school.We hope to see a very representativegathering of graduates at the Post Students'Annual General Meeting on FridayFebruory 28th, 1958.Come along with the object of securinga good representation upon the ExecutiveCommittee.For further information contact theSecretary, Alan Wi lson, 10 Wi lmothAvenue, Murrumbeena, S.E.9.
• HEADMASTER'S REPORTIt is fitt ing, perhaps, that after a briefstay of one year at Caulfield, I shouldrecord a few impressions of a year thathas been a strange m ixture of joys andsorrows, of high hopes and almost deepdespair.My joys and my hopes have beenraised by the outstanding successes ofthe boys of the school - their triumphsat football and athletics, their wonderfulresponse to charitable appeals, theexcellent performances of the choir onpublic occasions, and by the spirit ofwholehearted co-operation shown by thegreat majority of the students. Sorrowand despair have been caused by thosefew boys who have proved dishonest, untruthfulor delinquent. Among the boys,I hope, I have mode many friends. Thereare many boys whose futures I wiII followwith the greatest of interest whetherin their further education, in their chosencareers or in the field of sport.It has been a privilege and a pleasureto work with my colleagues on the staff;their readiness to help, their willing cooperationand their cheerful acceptanceof many extra burdens have been, to me,a source of encouragement and inspira t ion.In conclusion, may I soy that everystudent has a grave responsibility to theCaulfield Technical School, a responsibilityto be regular and punctual in attendance,to be attentive to his lessons,to be properly clod, and to behove at alltimes in a manner that will bring creditto himself, to his family and to hisschool. On the other hand, the schoolhas an equal responsibility to the boys,to see that every boy receives the understanding,the sympathy, the toleranceand the justice he merits, and that he isfully prepared to face adult life in acommunity bristling with problems.My best wishes to all at Caulfield fora happy and successful future.• OBITUARYIt is with deep regret that we recordthe death of one of our teachers andtwo of our students during the year.Mr. Stan Brown collapsed and diedsuddenly while on duty on 9th July.
