Our Values At Prince Alfred College we believe men have unique skills, talents and abilities. We believe it is their differences, not their similarities, which need to be nurtured. We recognise that their traditional roles and responsibilities are changing. As a consequence, they need clarity, flexibility and a clear sense of purpose. Our goal is to nurture and develop boys into Princes Men. Men who know who they are, work hard and value their roles and contributions. But at the same time, to develop men with kindness, who care and support others. Men with a sense of duty, honour and integrity. Men with courage and emotional strength. Men with ambition and a willingness to act and achieve. Men with a good sense of humour, confidence and self- reliance. Men who build strong networks and enduring relationships.

Prince Alfred College — the world needs more good men.

Our Purpose To uncover, nurture and develop the unique qualities of boys to help them transform into productive, confident and resilient Princes Men. Contents

Already we have noticed boys are more settled and more engaged in learning. All this by changing the seats and tables and adding some softer furniture. The results have impressed us and I know the boys are enjoying their new learning environments.

The Shades of Red launch for 2016 was the biggest yet with parents and students attending to witness and purchase the fantastic work that the boys had produced this year. The audience that attended the launch were lucky enough to hear readings from students that feature in the journal ranging from Years 8 to 12. Shades of Red is one of the many initiatives that makes the Prince Alfred College community so unique. In a modern era where young men often are reluctant to open up it is important that we have Shades of Red as we provide the boys with an opportunity to express themselves creatively. As Princes men we are taught to be well-rounded and this journal is a welcome chance to show that there is often much more inside young men than meets the eye and we are proud to be showcasing that throughout these pages.

2016 has been a very busy year, with so many co-curricular opportunities offered to boys in Years 4 to 6. It is always pleasing to see nearly every boy involved in one of the summer and winter activities on offer. Families are now put under pressure to involve their boys in Club Sport very early, but the College remains adamant that school sport plays a very important role in a PAC boy’s development. The friendships that develop on the sporting fields and out of the classroom are usually lifelong ones. We thank the dedicated staff members who freely give up their time after hours to coach and manage these many teams. Without their passion and energy, the experience would not be enjoyed so much by the boys. We would also like to acknowledge the parents’ support also – getting boys to matches, supplying food and drinks and cheering loudly every week. We rely on parents to encourage the boys to be reliable, a good team person and a good sport. The College continues to focus on the development of skills in the Preparatory School and we are seeing a marked improvement in boys that are coming through into Middle School. The strategy of utilizing a quality development coach in every field has lifted the standards and we have seen some very impressive results. The Old Scholars always offer great support to our sports teams and this year is no exception.

Since my son’s recent Year 12 graduation, I’ve been reflecting on my time here at Princes which I would like to share with you. 2004 seems like an eternity ago when our family of four made the decision to move from Hobart to Adelaide. As very much a family oriented person, I felt deeply saddened at the choice we made to move, but understood that this was necessary for both the sustainability of our family business and our children’s future. From the moment we three, Brooke, Brandon and Mum stepped onto the oval to play after a wonderful interview on that hot November afternoon, with irritating little black flies buzzing around us, we knew we had found another home, an extension to our family, the school community right here at Prince Alfred College. The lifelong friendships we have made, our successes, our failures, our ups and downs, it’s all been worth it! This is the final chapter of will be some successful friend and To quote Shakespeare: a novel almost complete, and yes, I fundraising activities on the horizon. suppose I do feel a little sad. “who is a better word-smith The Family Fun and Movie nights than I am I thank our Treasurer, Lorraine return was also well received early Ottanelli, for the many dedicated And whether we shall this year which will continue to be years she has given to this meet again I know not built upon. committee and her vast knowledge, Therefore our everlasting support and endearing friendship.

166 Prince Alfred College CHRONICLE 2016 Lodge & Community

Prince Alfred Collegians’ Lodge No. 51 The concept of a Freemasons Lodge linked to the School was first raised at the Old Scholars’ dinner in 1907 by several Freemasons who were also old scholars of the School. Prince Alfred Collegians’ Lodge was the first lodge associated with a school in Australasia. Eventually, under the Grand Lodge of South Australia and The Northern Territory two other clearly related school lodges were formed (St Peter’s School Collegiate Lodge, in 1907, and Pulteney Lodge, in 1948). In addition, Erindale Lodge was connected to Kings College although the link was not formally made. The rationale for an association with the School community was that freemasonry shared a similar Year 10 student Damon Zygouris with the PAOC Lodge’s Worshipful Master Don Catford ethos to that of the founders of the School, namely the endeavour to improve society, one by educating with four other lodges in 2000, and Certificate and cheque were boys into the right pathway, the this lodge subsequently surrendered presented to Damon Zygouris (Year other by reinforcing such teachings its Warrant in 2016. 10) and a Special Award Certificate to grown men.

This year the New Vintage Reds were ‘babes in arms’ in 1956 and sat together in the front row. Master of Ceremonies Rex Wilson introduced each new Vintage Red and acknowledged the five men present aged over 90, with highly respected past staff member David Mattingley Garth Palmer (1957), Richard Thomson (1959) & Roger Lang (1960) who commenced at the College in enjoying the Vintage Reds luncheon 1955 being the eldest present at 94.
