The Branksome Slogan 7 We at Branksome are intensely proud of our school and of its tra- ditions. We are grateful, not only for the opportunities offered in education, but also for the splendid chances given in our sports. For, after all, learning to succeed in life is achieved not only in the academic field, but also in the field of sport, where we have been taught fair play, co-operation and sportsmanship. To be able to say that you have been graduated from Branksome Hall means a great deal in later years. It means that you represent a God-fearing school that has carried the beliefs of fair play and justice through forty years of service. It means that you, personally, believe in these qualities and are ready to support and defend them at any time. JOAN LANGLOIS, Head Girl.
