Every second Tuesday at noonhour, representatives of all facets of school life met together. These representatives involved the Head Girl, School Captain, Sports Captain, House Heads, Head of Residence, and the Class Presidents and Vice-Presidents from each form. Their meetings included discussions of upcoming social and sports activities, and amendments of any disciplinary problems that arose in the residence or day-school life. With each position on the Council, came the responsibility of that individual for the welfare and contentness of those she represented. By enabling the girls to have a major say in the form of school life they wished around them, they were spurred on to a greater involvement in, and concern for Balmoral Hall. If the habit of res- ponsible behaviour can be learned at the scholastic level, then students will go on to higher endeavours with a better understanding of people and problems.

l 'Lum n LH A LLU Balmoral Hall, June 1968. Greetings to the Balmoral Hall graduating class of 1967-68g This school will always remember with gratitude your class as the one that introduced self-government in instituting the Student Council. Your elected officers have carried through with a difficult and bewildering programme in this year of experimentation that may mark the directional path for many years to come. The various innovations suggested by your council may, through the mellowing of time, become traditions of the school. I hope that when you look back at this book, this record of your class personality, you will have a feeling of deep satisfaction in your contribution to this school's vitality. I hope that what you have learned at Balmoral Hall, outside of the formal academic curriculum has been a satisfactory experience and may continue to be rewarding in your future lives. Yours sincerely, Harriet M. Perry.
