The not-yet-16 year old scored two goals in the week long Championship in which Western Australia finished fourth. Playing at the Perth Hockey Stadium, Angela said, “It was awesome to play in front of a home crowd. It made the game a lot easier feeding off the crowd's encouragement.” In preparation for the Championship, Angela focused on her personal fitness, nutrition requirements and skills, along with training every Sunday morning and Wednesday night and playing in occasional scratch matches. Currently a Year 10 boarder at St Hilda’s Anglican School for Girls, balancing her school work, Club hockey, State hockey and other commitments (including a school rowing Above: Boyup Brook’s Angela Chilwell in action against NSW in the School team) was a challenge. She said, “I made sure whenever I Sport Australia 16 Years and Under Hockey Championship had spare time I would get work done to keep on top.” This Photo credit: Right Photos meant late nights, early mornings and even turning down social outings with her boarding mates to be at her best for trials and scratch matches - a real tribute to her dedication. But it was all worth it with Angela saying “It was one of the most enjoyable hockey tournaments, I loved every second of it.” Angela joins two of her Western Australian teammates, Isabella Suleski and Renee Rockliffe in the eighteen girl national team. When her name was announced, the teenager squealed with her teammates and found herself holding back tears of happiness. Mum, Ros Chilwell was also quite emotional as she witnessed the announcement, but overwhelmed with absolute pride and excitement, especially as WA had not done as well in the event as they would have liked. Ros commented, “It was also a great sense of pride to our community, as a lot of Angela's attributes have evolved from wonderful role models coming through the Boyup Junior and Women's teams, and she will always be very proud of that.” A meeting was held during the event for parents to outline pathways for the athletes and it was stressed how important it is to keep a balance of activities in their lives, to which Ros said, “It looks like she won’t be giving up her spot on the tailing cradle anytime soon!” As the 2015 recipient of the Shire of Boyup Brook’s Young Achiever of the Year, Angela continues to demonstrate the qualities which earned her this title and with her whole-hearted commitment and work ethic, she is destined to achieve great results.

As part of a small grant obtained by the BBDHS P&C, some of the more notable, interesting, colourful, awarded and fabulous members of the school alumni are to be honoured. A Foundation for Rural and Regional Renewal grant has allowed us to fund an ‘avenue of honour’ project, to tie in with the school’s ‘Masterplan’ improvement blueprint. As suggested in the plan, an avenue of trees has recently been planted along the driveway into the Middle School campus, off Beatty Street. Each tree will be accompanied by a small plaque to celebrate the life of a former student of the school. So, with the trees now in, we need to identify some worthy ex-students, whose achievements in life can be documented and listed on the ‘alumni honour plaques’. The project aims to help us celebrate the long, proud history of education in Boyup Brook. From the school’s inception in 1900, thousands of students have completed some, or all, of their education there. If you know of any alumni, from any one of the decades of the BBDHS history, who has achieved something fabulous, please let us know. Whether it be an achievement of international significance, one of great local value, an act of immeasurable valour or kindness, or an achievement made despite great adversity, we’d love to know about it. The name, estimated date of attendance at the school and a brief description of the person’s life is all we require. To make a suggestion, please contact project coordinator, Jennifer Staniforth-Smith, via phone on 9767 1329 or email [email protected]. Alternatively, just send a note in to the school. Please make your suggestions by or before September 30. The BBDHS alumni community is now spread far and wide, with many great stories evolving from their achievements. Please help us tell a few of these stories as part of this simple project.
