[edit] Reversion

I just reverted the anon edits (see differences here) since the material seemed to come from various pages of the Hornsby Girls High School website (see for instance this).

[edit] Overall Tone

The overall tone of this article is not encyclopaedic and reads like a school magazine - added cleanup tag (as well as cleaning up a little) - The events section, for example, needs to give actual facts (such as time of year) --Princess Tiswas 13:16, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

Having found the cleanup tag, I deleted material that was insufficiently explained (just saying that there is an event is not enough, the reader needs to know what happens at the event and what its purpose is). I also took out a paragraph of POV material about the possible meaning of the school motto. Since the motto is in English, that seems sufficiently self-explanatory. I would welcome the return of better-explained and more notable material about school events, as long as it's neutral in tone. For instance, what happens during the multicultural event? How do the textiles students present garments?Accounting4Taste 21:54, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

It does read a lot like a school magazine. 123.243.255.3 13:13, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
