[edit] Notability

A non-notable school —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 144.132.235.43 (talkcontribs) 00:37, 11 December 2004.

I must agree. It is not of significant importance, especially when compared to other schools in the Sydney area which have produced very famous individuals. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 138.130.25.49 (talk • contribs) 00:41, 11 December 2004.

Like the amazing and honorable Malcolm Turnbull. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 144.132.235.43 (talkcontribs) 06:15, 11 December 2004.

How is Sir William Deane not important? Or Matt Burke? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 147.10.196.252 (talk • contribs) 01:14, 13 July 2005.
Nothing wrong with this article. The school is notable (as are many others). The school's traditional rival, St Ignatius' College, Riverview, has an article which seems to have given rise to no complaints —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 129.94.6.28 (talkcontribs) 21:59, 1 January 2006.

[edit] How about John O'Neill?

Did someone forget that John O'Neill, the former Rugby Union CEO responsible for the running operation of The 2003 Rugby Union World Cup held in Australia, is another example of an Old Boy (former student)? John O'Neill is the current Football Federation of Australia's um... Chief Executive!

Just to add that point out. There are many people, but this man was responsible for much of the work, in recent times, for Rugby, and now currently Soccer... —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 213.202.130.35 (talk • contribs) 00:08, 16 October 2005.

[edit] Headings

I was just wondering why the major sub-headings are the size of the article heading: i propose that every sub heading should be one size smaller - and will endeavour to edit the article in this fashion right now. Rcm 10:29, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Photograph

The Image:JoeysHH1930s.jpg doesn't look much like Joey's main building and the landscaping bears no resemblance to the terrain around the school. Could it possibily be looking up from Tarban Creek or the lower grounds below Villa Maria ? If so there appears to be none of the flat ground that we know as Coll A,B,C,E and Villa Maria itself. I assert that this photo is not of Joey's in spite of the contributor getting it from the State Library archive. I will remove if anyone agrees with me -Sticks66 (talk) 11:56, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

If you are sure that it's not of Joey's then I support its removal. Loopla (talk) 01:31, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

The photo is of Kincoppal-Rose Bay, School of the Sacred Heart, Sydney and so I will remove it. Many images in the Sam Hood archive are incorrectly captioned. I won't move it to Kincoppal due to the confusion with the Library caption but hopefully Loopla will know what to do about this. Castlemate (talk) 02:48, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
