This article provides a download of Acacia: Weston Creek High ’88, the annual Weston Creek High School Magazine published in 1988.
The magazine was produced by Year 9 and 10 Journalism students in the days before digital composition. Each page was laid out on paper by hand – you can even see the tape sticking down the student photos!
