J VALEDICTORY The year 1967-68 has been a year of firsts for Balmoral Hall. As Canada enters her second century of Confederation, it seems fitting that we, too, should be starting a new era in the proud history of our school. Last fall marked the beginning of a new and exciting year for Balmoral Hall. Under the direction of Dr. Perry, in her first complete year of office, and the newly developed Student Government, it promised to be a most unique year. The school day cycle altered, students changed classes, and modern equipment was put to full advantage. Prayers took on a new image with a tendency towards more up-to- date forms of worship such as those used at the Sunday Folk Services. The addition of Drama to the curriculum made it possible to have a play at Christmas. This play, together with the choir's usual excellent performance, resulted in an extremely successful Christmas service and an appropriate ending to the first term. The highlight of the second term was the opening of Richardson Hall whose modern facilities will continue to be a source of stimulation to students in the future. Current Affairs, the Business Club, Newspaper, school sports, ski buses, Cheer- leading , Folk Services, and dance organizations offered a variety of new activities for all students. This interest in school affairs aided in encouraging the mounting spirit of the student body throughout the course of the year. For myself and my fellow graduates, these will be a few of the cherished memories of our final year. To Balmoral Hall we will always be grateful for the experience gained and for the education earned during our year hereg these, coupled with the highly valued friendships which have developed, will be our stepp- ing stones to the future. In closing l should like to ask you, the students, to remember this: it is YOU who are the essential part of the school-Balmoral l-lall will become whatever you make it. To my successor, go my best wishes. May she benefit from and enjoy her position as much as I. To those of you who leave, may you find happiness in all your endeavoursg and to each of you, the best of luck next year and always. Trish Stovel School Captain
