    St Mary’s MATTERS VOL 17 ISSUE 4 JUNE 2017 Head’s Message Page 1 Junior School Page 3 Senior School Page 8 Sports and Recreation Page 14 From the PA Page 25 The Counselling Centre Page 26 TABLE OF CONTENTS Dear St Mary’s DSG Community May has own and winter has set in. Germs are doing the rounds. Life is very busy as academic matters and sport, cultural and spiritual matters continue unabated, as they do every year at this time. A few more weeks of “hectic” and things change pace dramatically. We are very good at feeling sorry for ourselves, forgetting the hordes that have gone before us. The national psyche remains fragile. If the school were in the same place as the country I would have been red long ago! Yet no one it seems will accept responsibility! Responsibility is not a popular word. The world of lawnmower parents is catching up with us, as teenagers, and even voting age teenagers have built up little resilience to dealing with the ebb and ow of life. Youngsters (and adults) now seek continual armation, even when wrong. A reprimand is now interpreted as “shouting” for example, and self-worth becomes questioned when facing any negative experience which demands personal accountability. People want to be continually stroked and made to feel good. Self-indulgent behaviour and petulance in the absence of pleasure abounds. Ben Zander, the conductor of the Boston Philharmonic, tells the story of a visiting world famous violinist who was visiting. He gave tickets to his entire class at the Youth Music Centre.

  • 6Th Issue-June 06
    6 June 2008 St Mary’s Matters St Mary’s Diocesan School for Girls From the Head’s Desk Dear Parents, The term continues to provide a busy life for the girls and teachers alike. The sports girls have been particularly active play- ing matches up to three times a week. The successes have been impressive in both the Senior and Junior Schools and it is a real pleasure to see the improvement in the standard of play. The league matches are mostly over and I must thank every- one involved in coaching and sport administration for all their hard work. The results have been impressive, particularly as we are now playing in stronger leagues in most of the sports. Where teams have lost they have done so by very narrow margins. In the Senior School, the U14A hockey team won their league section and will participate in the playoffs. We have yet to hear if other teams will be invited to their playoffs. The U14A and U15A netball teams were placed 2nd in the playoffs, and the U16A team were the overall winners of their league- a wonderful achievement. In basketball, the Open, U16 A and B, and U15A and B teams are all involved in playoffs this weekend. Three hockey girls have been chosen for Northern Gauteng B teams. One of our girls has also been chosen for each of the U14A, U16A and U18A teams. Three of our U16 girls have been chosen to play netball for Northern Gauteng, one of whom went on to be selected for the Gauteng team.
