Eight of the thirteen who played during the season played in all seven matches. In batting, Tony Hodgson, a fifth form player. scored a total of 336 in his eight sessions at the crease. This included 60 not out against Carey, 100 not out against Geelong Grammar and 82 against St. Kevin's. These excellent figures resulted in the top batting average of 56. Other excellent batting performances were the chanceless century (101 to be exact) by David Gordon against Caulfield, 58 not out by opening bowler Mark Russel l, another fifth former, and 49 by Barry Mann. The overall average of the eight who played in all matches was 28.66 and two of these were essentially bowlers.

    ews-Sheet of the Geelong College Community No. 42 NOVEMBER,1979 JUBILEE OF CAMPBELL HOUSE The report of the Principal (Rev. F. W. Rolland) in December, 1929, included the following paragraph, " Next year we are adding to our Preparatory School a class for boys of four to seven years of age. It will be on Kindergarten lines and will embody the results of the painstaking scientific observation of the young child which has been going on for the last thirty years. The trained child teacher of today does not let children do anything they like, nor does she take a fixed syllabus and force it on her class. She says: All these children have many natural instincts and activities. How are these activities, which are the most valuable for the individual and social life of the child, to be encouraged and developed? What is the environment and material that these children should have if their restless energy is to be guided into the right chan· nels and they are to make steady progress from easy to more difficult achievements? In short it works from the human end, as some day all education will do." So the Kindergarten began in 1929 under This was the original kindergarten class·room. the skilled direction of Miss Sylvia Baird, who was in charge for the first three years. Until 1936 it was based in one of the class· Rapid development and growth occurred ment which lasted until her retirement at rooms of the old Preparatory School build· after the appointment of Miss Lorna Hamer the end of 1978 and wh ich was marked ing, on the Senior School site.

Science is at the heart of this progress. Given such incredible advancement, it’s tempting to think that science education must be in pretty good shape. Sadly, it isn’t.
