Tobias Patterson and Eddie Sheppard engaged in a colour mixing experiment using teat pipettes Mead This year in the Mead Room we have followed many learning journeys.

The children have been deeply engaged in our inquiry – Our Natural World, in particular recognising change and life cycles. We observed with awe the transformation of yellow, white and black monarch caterpillars from miniscule to colossal sized. We studied them and represented our thinking in observational drawings. We saw the start of the process of metamorphosis as they changed into their bejewelled chrysalis. And finally the remarkable stage where the monarch butterfly emerged from the chrysalis and flew away into the wilds of Kent Town.

The children formed an understanding that light had a key role in the formation of shadows. We placed a projector in the classroom and the children began to utilise natural materials and their hands to create shadows on the classroom wall. They had made the connection that both man-made and natural light can create shadows.

The awareness to the fact that the sun was the source of light during the day did however prompt the children to think about why shadows are not always apparent when we are outside and why their shadows were not always in front of them and were sometimes much larger or smaller than their bodies.

We hosted many different creatures in our room, observing their lifecycles first hand. It was amazing to hatch our very own Monarch butterflies.

Year 12 Wellbeing Leadership positions were amply filled in 2017 by Lachlan Evins, Harry Wise, Peter Mourtzios and Angus Cowling. We understand the workload for all Year 12 boys and we appreciate the commitment that each of the students give when they accept this role. Having wellbeing leadership roles gives a peer message which helps to de-stigmatise boys seeking support. Our Wellbeing leaders 2 3 also assume a small role in mentoring younger boys, usually at lunch time or after school. Wellbeing leaders are in a unique position as they have travelled the journey through PAC. This insight allows for a different level of understanding and shared experience. The younger boys appreciate the perspicuity that the year 12 leaders can share to encourage and support their years ahead. We wish our Wellbeing leaders and all of the Year 12 cohort the very best as they continue their journey.

It was at the blacking factory the most innocent and needy among that Dickens met Bob Fagin. Bob was another employee at the Thomas Fenner as Fagin from Oliver factory. However, unlike some of the others, Bob never teased young Dickens.

Prince Alfred College CHRONICLE 2017 In fact, Fagin defended Dickens when the other boys taunted him. He also taught Dickens how to wrap and tie the bottles of polish. He even helped Dickens when he was ill at work. So why would Dickens remember someone who had showed him such kindness, by naming such a villain after him? The time Dickens spent at the blacking factory was the worst time of his entire life. His shame over the incident made him keep it a secret from all but a few people; perhaps it was just that Bob Fagin introduced him to the ways of the Performing Arts 85 factory in the same way that the other Rory Hellwig as Bill Sykes and Thomas Fenner as Fagin Fagin showed Oliver the correct way to pick pockets.

Once in a Lifetime In June of 1837 something happened that only occurred once in Dickens’ career. He missed a deadline. He was writing two serialised novels at once, The Pickwick Papers and Oliver Twist. However, in June of 1837 there was no Pickwick. There was no Oliver Twist. Instead, there was a funeral. In 1837, Mary Hogarth was seventeen, pretty and living with her sister Catherine and Catherine’s husband, Charles Dickens. Mary was a favourite with the couple and had become like to same-sex quarters with the children reach of the wealthy. In rich homes, a little sister to Charles.

For lower class instalments of Twist and Pickwick were families, children were breadwinners not published due to ‘the sudden death Rather than finding this treatment who brought home meagre wages of a very dear young relative to whom motivational, the workhouses broke from factories, coal mines or other he was most affectionately attached the spirit of many people forced to live people’s pockets. Children went to and whose society had been for a long there. The adventures of young Oliver work just like everyone else in the same time the chief solace of his labours.’ Twist make this point. Dickens also conditions that would be enough to touches on this topic in other works, turn our stomachs. There were few Themes in Oliver Twist such as A Christmas Carol. Charles laws protecting them from working In Oliver Twist Dickens attacks the New Dickens used his novel to point out alongside their parents in the mills. Poor Law of 1834.

In our musical Oliver! we gave audiences a peek into the inner workings of a band of child thieves and pickpockets who are led and cared for by Fagin. The child-like naïvété of Oliver makes him stand out. Every character who encounters him in London sees something special in the boy that makes him the spark of youth in the grey factory of adulthood, which is ultimately why Nancy is willing to risk

The theme for this year’s journal centred around the premise that although science has always been recognised as a powerful tool, in more recent times it has been used to more misinform and mislead by those with vested interests. There is therefore a responsibility of all scientists to use science in the best interests of all mankind with honest, scientific method as their sole foundation. This concept was summarised in the theme for this year’s journal of “Dishonest Science”.

The journal itself was again launched at the Celebration of Science function during Week 7 of Term 4. This function, ran for the first time last year, which Science Journal Committee acknowledged the fine work of the Back Row: Tate Crowley, Seran Perera, Max Kirkby, Seung Hun (Eddie) Han Journal Committee for their work in Front Row: Mishari Al Hariri, Jungho (Denny) Han, Xing Yu (Steve) Wu, Henri Jury producing another fine publication.

We were blessed to learn from great teachers who were solid role models and provided much needed discipline. Many were there. It astounds me how committed the teachers are and ongoing. At the time we may not have fairly appreciated them but the realisation of the value provided comes later and that our best interests were in mind. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Mr Bean was there too. What a great man.

Special thanks to Mary-Ann Standish for going over and above and organising a The Class of 1987 truly great event.

Many of us left making promises to connect more regularly. In fact, the boarders have committed to catching up every second year. I know this will happen because of the quality of individuals involved. Many of the boarders carried on after at 'The Pink Pig' to taste some magnificent SA produced 'Shorthorn Beef' supplied by Matt Ashby of Gulnare. Delicious!

I say....'do brave deeds and endure'.... and will see you at the next reunion. If Phillip Palmer, Jason Gerard and Bryan Krywanio you are not on board...get onboard!

Robert William Piper AO (1938- 1947) provided outstanding service as a member of the College Council from 1960-92 and as Chairman from 1980-92, and President of the PAOCA in 1965. Bob participated in the appointment of Headmaster Bean in 1969 and was Chairman at the time of Dr Webber’s appointment as Headmaster in 1987, and was one of a small group of far sighted men who established the Endowment Fund which underpins the College’s finances. In later years Bob’s pride was in his four grandsons who attended the College as the fifth generation of the Piper family. The College gives thanks for the life and contribution of Bob Piper, and extends sincere sympathy to his wife Bob Piper Margaret and their family.

C. David Mattingley DFC served the College from 1955 until his retirement as Senior Master in 1987. Best known as a teacher of history and as rowing master, David’s distinguished World War II service as a Lancaster pilot in the RAAF was known by few until his wife told his story in Battle Order 204 in 2007. David Mattingley died peacefully aged 94 and his life was celebrated with obituaries in The Times (London) and The Advertiser. The College gives thanks for the long life and service of David Mattingley, and extends sincere sympathy to his wife Christobel and their three children. Prince Alfred College CHRONICLE 2017
