EDITORIAL As this school year closed, one cannot help looking back on the events of the year or years we have each spent at Branksome. In trying to reflect on these activities, this year ' s Slogan has tried to capture the many moods of Branksomites in every aspect of school life. There is no particular concentra- tion on any one activity, but rather a combination of everything that involves Branksomites as a whole. Looking through the following pages, one sees certain names and faces appearing over and over again. For these girls, school spirit is a real and important part of Branksome. However, many girls do not appear in anything other than class pictures. Apathy is not a new word. People who are involved are always ready to undertake something else, because they MAKE more time. It really takes so little to get involved and to participate and to show your school enthusiasm. Branksome needs each and every one of you to participate. Contributions are vital to every aspect of the school in order for it to improve and to make further progress. It is often hard to appear to be making changes, as change is a slow process. For us at Branksome, tradition is a very major part of everything in the school. Constructive changes are always welcomed and encouraged, and, therefore, we have attempted some changes. The inclusion of Junior School Class pictures and more literary material is one step further towards our goal of total involvement with the school, so that your yearbook reflects every one of you. However, it is often necessary to hold onto certain principles of the past. We cannot hope to gain anything by sudden radical changes. We, the editors of The Slogan, realize that the pressure of deadlines is often trying for you, the students. Nevertheless, as you can see by looking through this book, the many excellent contributions do not appear to have been hindered by this fact. With your support, the much appreciated time and effort of Miss Kenny and Miss Forsyth, and the help of every member of the committees of The Slogan, we offer you the results of your efforts and hope that you enjoy them.

HEAD GIRL My years at Branksome have ended And looking back over the time Certain images and experiences All seem to come to mind. Drama, debating, swimming, Cheering in the stands, Carol Services (St. Paul ' s this year). Gatherings of the clans. Birth of the Branksome Duckie, Blind dates at the Rout, Playing bueno ball at noon, Trying to sneak out. Toilets overflowing. Visiting in the night. Water fights and pillow fights. Studying by flashlight. Black running shoes and bloomers, Ink bespattered shirts, Screaming, crying, joking. Laug hing ' til it hurts. Enthusiasm that ' s overflowing. Friends — some passing, some true. Experiences which push forward. Tradition keeping pace with what ' s new. These fragments put together Show the Branksome style: To live, to learn, to laugh, to love, To think, to give, to try. So keep up the Branksome spirit. Never quit the fight. And may you always be proud To be a Branksomite. Page 4 The Branksome Slogan
