Head Message
Boy's
It has not only been an honour but a privilege to
represent Sterling Hall as Head Boy this year; has
it
been a learning experience that will never forget.
I
When I started Sterling Hall in grade 1 , I was just
one of a group of little boys starting school. By the
time finished Grade 8, all of us had been nurtured,
I
mentored, instructed and well-prepared for our
future in higher education. To attend Sterling Hall is
a gift given to us by our parents and a trust that was
fulfilled by the dedicated teaching staff and
community of Sterling Hall. Good luck to all my
fellow graduates. will never forget your friendship,
I
good times and great support. My one wish is that
we all stay in touch through the next stage of our
lives.
Cheers,
Geoffrey Williams

Message
Principal's
One of the pleasures that falls to me annually as SHS Principal
is to write a message which introduces the Yearbook to the reader.
Together with the Head Boy's Message, some of the individuality of
this year is expressed in words and then is reinforced by the content
of the book.
It is striking to look back at previous years and see how far SHS
has come. The Principal's Message in the 1997 Yearbook reminds
us that no two years are the same, and that "...the different
personalities, the changing events and the evolution of the school
create an individual flavour which is unique." - a comment from ten
years ago which was true then and is true now. Just as this year
has been, it was also a year of growth for SHS - but growth of a
different kind. The student population increased to 165 - the total
Grade 8 class had 18 students and the Grade 1 class had a total of
1 1 ! Indeed, the only grade that had two classes was Grade 2.
And so from humble first steps in 1987 and emerging growth in
1997, this year SHS can really celebrate its coming of age. Our
school is full of bright and enthusiastic students; our Faculty and
Staff make up a wonderful team of caring people; with the additions
of the Discovery Centre last year and the Music Centre this year,
our buildings now offer facitilities that are the envy of many of our
brother and sister CMS schools; and am proud to say that at the
I
centre of the SHS experience, the same core values are treasured
today in much the same way as they were when Darlene Ferris
opened her school.
We have enjoyed a strong year. Read this Yearbook and as you
do, reflect back on the memories that are important to you. And
smile.
