YEAR BOOK, 1955 Page 25 We had loads of fun exploring the trails But soon from us all there arose dismal wails Because all too soon it was time to go home, And back to the buses we started to roam. We arrived back at Branksome, happy and hot, It took many weeks ' ere that trip was forgot. Then came that ' ' horror , the Christmas exams Which all of us passed according to plans. Next came the holidays, happy and gay But before very long we were back in IIA Struggling with tests which were piled to the skies And talking of essays — and — ' ' Who ' ll win the prize? Nine girls from IIA in the choir did sing To win at the festival ; marvellous thing. Then came our play, The Ghost of the Show Three cheers for the cast, who with talent did glow. Thanks for directing the play, Jackie B. Thank you for making the audience cry Whee, This is the best, the most wonderful play ! It must be produced by the girls of IIA ! Thanks are in order to president Anne, To our V.P. Joan Henson, to our treasurer Dianne, For helping to make this a wonderful year ; A barrel of fun for each one of us here. A special salute to Miss Murdoch, our teacher Who taught us our Eiatin without being a preacher. And now we ' ve cheered everyone, there ' s just this to say, THREE CHEERS AND GOOD LUCK FOR THE GIRLS OF IIA. IIB FORM REPORT The first of the year at Branksome Hall HB spent their time playing basketball; The game against VB was really a doozer , But we, unfortunately were the loser. And then as a welcome diversion — Off to the farm for our picnic excursion; Winter came, bringing lots of snow, — Armed with our skis away we go ! Archibald became famous in our play And many times he saved the day. Frances, our secretary, collected for Lent And to a hospital in India it went. Other activities — Swimming, bowling, and choir, To them all, our class does aspire. Ingrid did her house donate

Page 24 THE BRANKSOME SLOGAN We chose a zebra mascot; As cute as he could be. His name was Zeberauchie Because he was striped, you see. And then was basketball begun; When every girl had lots of fun. Then later as the days flew by, The game was badminton. The next event for IB class Was putting on a play: We all joined in, had lots of fun, On this important day. But all good things must have an end ; As so the saying goes : In IB class ' case it was — The final exams arose. Then soon the day for leaving came : Some happy and some sad ; But when the names who passed were read, I ' m sure they all were glad. And so the 55 IB Was surely a happy year ; And we extend to our Miss Boyes, A hail and hearty cheer. IIA CLASS HISTORY When we came back to school this fall We did not want to come at all ; Our minds were full of summer joys, Of swimming and diving, of fun and noise. We organized a basketball team Who were ALMOST always on the beam. Coached by Marg Benson, who took great pains And led by such players as Joynt and Haines. To the semi-finals at last we came, But VA outplayed us ; a very close game. And right in the middle of all this fun Another treat came for everyone. One day in September we climbed on a bus And went to the farm, a whole group of us ;
