Dayedhiram ...Damyata "-the three commands of the thunder. The quality of independence is a compromise of all three­ giving, sympathising, showing self�control. Especially does the paradox of a compromising independence apply to a seventh form. Examination of this idea is an integral part of the study of the seventh form situation; a major contemporary educational inadequacy, it is triggered by transition. Preconceptions are regularly misconceptions. Some such misconceptions accompany the transition from the secondary to the tertiary (phase). In regarding the seventh form year as a " trial run" for university, seventh formers look for symptoms to indicate the loosening of the bond with the school and with its tradition, the symptoms of the " blissful state of permanent exemption".However, because of the more formidable challenge the univer� sity year poses, the incentive it inspires contributes towards its relatively greater success. Evolving is the concept of the " need for incentive ", the absent in� gredient, the integral component. Here, the education system is at fault. The aim of the majority is Higher School Certificate: the ratio of financial benefit to effort required for the Bursary is such as to discourage rather than encourage those requiring that extra effort.The award of the Certificate, however, is almost automatic. Students camouflage themselves in the security of the award with as much complacency as the pessimism with which they regard their chances in the examination.For the majority of students there exists a total lack of incentive. Ideally, the need for incentive should be a declining one-one supposes that this was the outlook of the education authority. The problem then rests with decreasing the present reliance upon incentive, by increasing the rate of mental and psychological maturation. Since maturity is a gradual process, this rate must be being suppressed in the lower school. What is the function of the lower school? Too often we are unconscious of function; function of teacher, subject, or even function of education.Teachers have often failed in their objective of mental stimulation because of a communication difficulty. Inspection of the classroom situation reveals that the usually defined " pool of ideas" is, in most cases, barely a puddle. This is obviously inadequate. Emergent is the lack of independence and the blanket of conformity engulfing contemporary youth. It is a " conformity in non�conformity ", a conformity, nevertheless, which is just as suppressively restrictive. Independence means a shedding of this cloak. Independence leads to a fuller participation in the classroom and develops a greater mental maturity. In that the pooling of ideas is an integration of thought, this independence must be a compromising one. Five ROSS'S OPPOSITE S.B.H.S.

    Gordon District Cricket Club Inc. 116TH ANNUAL REPORT & FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2020-2021 SEASON FOUNDED 1905 2 GORDON DISTRICT CRICKET CLUB INC. ANNUAL REPORT & FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2020-2021 GORDON DISTRICT CRICKET CLUB INC. 3 Message from the President Season 2020/21 was, in a lot of ways one of the toughest on record for our club, however as I reflected at the end of the season also one of our more successful seasons. It started in mid-March 2020, when Sydney was locked down as the emerging threat of the COVID-19 pandemic came to the fore. We met as an executive to try and plan how the pandemic would impact cricket and our club’s future viability. Within a month our initial analysis indicated we could possibly lose up to $80,000 of income from reduction in grants from Cricket Australia and Cricket NSW, loss of Geoff Hickman sponsorship as corporates tightened their belts, reduction in donors and cancellation of some of our key fund-raising events. Our club was in a solid position financially with good cash reserves, however losses like this would see us run out of funds within two years. From that point of time the club’s executive met every second Tuesday via ZOOM and tried to come up with a plan of how to mitigate these financial losses and keep the club functioning as normal. The problem was the target was moving and things changed every week or so it seemed. Along the way we realised our 1st grade side, due to a mix of retirements and other reasons, had lost the majority of players and would need to re-build by promoting our talented Under 21 players from the previous season, and giving some players an opportunity to shine that, they were not previously receiving.

  • 4Th-8Th January 2021 – Waimakariri and Selwyn
    58th SOUTH ISLAND PRIMARY SCHOOLS CRICKET TOURNAMENT 4th-8th January 2021 – Waimakariri and Selwyn Thank You to our GOLD sponsors Welcome to Canterbury Country On behalf of the Canterbury Cricket Association it is my pleasure to welcome all thirty teams to this, the 58th South Island Primary School’s Tournament to be played throughout Waimakariri and Selwyn. All South Island provinces have made the trip to our district for this week. As well as the players, it is a warm welcome to the coaches, managers, parents, supporters, administrators and sponsors of these teams. This is the fifth occasion that Canterbury Country has hosted this tournament and we look forward to another wonderful week of cricket, and the building of friendships. From this tournament over the past 57 years a number of players have gone up through the age grade groups to represent their provinces, and even on to the highest honours of representing New Zealand. Whilst it is healthy for players to have aspirations and dreams of playing for the Blackcaps in the future, I’d like to encourage all adults involved with this tournament to positively praise the effort the players put into matches throughout the week, rather than reverting to focusing on performances, stats and results. Playing in this tournament gives players the opportunity to represent their province and to play alongside players from other clubs or schools. The friendships formed in this tournament will hopefully be long standing as the players continue to play cricket into the future. A tournament such as this could not be run without the help of a large number of volunteers.

  • 56Th SOUTH ISLAND PRIMARY SCHOOLS CRICKET TOURNAMENT
    56th SOUTH ISLAND PRIMARY SCHOOLS CRICKET TOURNAMENT 7TH – 11TH January 2019 Oamaru, North Otago Oamaru Nobody does it better than LJ Hooker 1 WELCOME A very warm welcome to Oamaru for the 56th South Island Primary Schools Tournament to all the players, coaches, managers, whanau and friends of the 14 participating teams. This is a tournament rich with history and this years addition sees a number of significant changes to the format in response to the new Age & Stage policy implemented by New Zealand Cricket. This is a new era for the tournament, as the shorter formats of the game will be played. This tournament has seen a number of players advance onto 1st Class cricket and International careers and it is likely some of the players playing in this year's tournament will do the same. This tournament is about bringing the best players from each of the districts from the South Island together for a week of competition and for players and supporters to enjoy the great game of cricket and each others company. A massive thank you to all of the volunteers from throughout the North Otago region who have given up their time to enable us to put this tournament on. This includes members of the organising committee, groundsman, ground managers and umpires. Without their help this tournament would not be possible. We are very thankful to all of our sponsors whose generous contributions have provided the necessary financial support required to make the tournament viable. This is especially the case for our major sponsors, LJ Hooker and Crombie & Lockwood.
