Sydney Boys High School The Record 2003 7 Year 12 Farewell Message
On sitting down to compose a little address to Year 12 for their final formal school assembly, I was wondering how I could say something fresh, something not said in my previous addresses on such occasions. I would not want to be accused of aporia (a condition which owners of The Superior Person’s Book of Words will recognise as the patently insincere protestations of a speaker that he does not know what to say or how to begin his speech), so I decided to explore the unoriginal but topical theme of ‘the vintage year’. I wonder if in academic terms Year 12 will be a ‘vintage year’ It certainly is the first Year 12 to have its own website. In the sense that Year 12 2003 is high yield academically, to be processed shortly by the HSC harvester. Bottled up, labelled and distributed by rank, and likely to turn out better after a few years cellaring at a university, we are yet to know how good a vintage Year 12 is. From the point of view of their predilection to being associated with vegetation that produces mind altering substances, I guess every Year 12 may secretly harbour such a desire at this time of year. From the perspective of sporting achievement, it Dr K A Jaggar has been a vintage year. Premierships in tennis and rifle shooting equalled the best ever performance by the school since 1906.

Fencing Mini As Team results: The SBHS Mini A fencing team competed in the 9 August SBHS v Grammar 5:4 School League Preliminary Rounds at Newington 9 August SBHS v Grammar (Prep) 5:4 on the 9, 16 and 23 August. Even though the team fenced enthusiastically, we had to be content with 16 August SBHS v St Aloysius 3:6 a disappointing ninth place due to lack of 16 August SBHS v St Ignatius 1:8 competition experience in our team. However, we were awarded a Bronze Medal in the Individual 23 August SBHS v Birchgrove 3:6 Awards Category. Individual results: All team members are keen to improve their Amadeus won 11 of 15 73.33% fencing skills quickly and are currently training both at SBHS and SGHS, hence we are looking Bronze Medal forward to a much-improved performance in Lucian won 2 of 15 13.33% 2004.
