Year Book, 1968 Page 9 HEAD GIRL ' S MESSAGE This year at Branksome has meant a great deal to me and I would like to thank everyone for making it memorable. Though I spent quite a bit of time admonishing you, the students, I owe you so much. Your spirit and enthusiasm were more than I had ever hoped for. To the Prefects and Sub- prefects I owe a special thanks. They have made my job easier because of their support and helpful advice. Miss MacNeill and the staff too have been very helpful, always so ready to give ad- vice and assistance. I take a special interest in sports, and thanks to the efforts of Stoney and Miss Perry-Gore I feel it has been a very successful and full programme. Of course I am patsy CROSS particularly proud of our basketball achievement, and I hope you realize that we could have done nothing without so many cheering supporters. The Opheleo under Debbie Gibson has outdone itself during Ramabai and Nancy Falconer has led the Beta Kappa through a flurry of wonderful dances with imaginative settings. Although I have not heard much about the Slogan, judging by what I have heard and the amount of work Patty Parker and her variety of editors have done already, I feel sure this yearbook is bound to be some- thing special, which of course it will be anyway to all those who graduate. I shall always remember life in boarding with my boarders. I cannot help but feel a certain protectiveness for these girls from near and far as they have shown me the part of Branksome which I had missed for four years. To one and all I wish to say thank you. Everyone has been wonderful and no one can appreciate it more than me. Patsy

Page 8 The Branksome Slogan To the Graduates — c A Message From the Alumnae Dear Graduates: Congratulations on achieving this important milestone. In the midst of all your celebrations, however, it may come as a bit of a shock to you to realize that you are about to become Branksome Old Girls! Nevertheless, after the initial blow, you will eventually come to realize, that to be a Branksome Alum is really something rather special. In the years to come, perhaps in England, France, Thailand, or even right here in Toronto, you may meet a stranger, and somehow the magic word Branksome will come up, and then you will experience that special something for yourselves. It is the love and loyalty and fellowship of Branksome that makes our great school spirit. It is this same spirit that creates an enthusiastic Alumnae. An Alumnae that works together to assist in Branksome ' s steady progress by providing additional equipment and bursaries for the benefit of the present students, and in so doing enjoys a friendly personal contact with those who have graduated either in the same year, or per- haps years apart. Together, much can be accomplished. It is our hope that the Graduat- ing Class of 1968 will join with the Alumnae to keep the flame burning brightly . . . ' Jean Macdonald Bennett, Alumnae President and Registrar.
