EDITORIAL A school yearbook is a clear representation of school life and is subjected to the ideals of and from the student body. Slogan ' 81, we hope is a vivid photograph of the memorable events and spirits of Branksome. As in most things, there are traditions that must be kept up in our yearbook, however without a certain amount of change, the repetition becomes monotonous and almost a facsimile of past year- books. Thus, we made many changes and variations in style, layouts and design. We hope that many of these changes will be recognizable and acceptable. We removed the idea of separation between the Junior and Senior schools present in other year- books, and combined both Junior and Senior ac- tivities throughout the book. We felt that the small section given to the Junior School in past years did not adequately represent their contribution to the Branksome community. The link between the two parts of the school has been much stronger than previous years and indeed more of a visible sign that the overpass itself. Because the book comes out in June it is difficult to include Spring happenings. In past years, many Spring write-ups have been mere speculations. We decided to eliminate speculations as a yearbook should be a record, not a guess of all events and happenings during the year. For this reason we added 1980 ' s Spring events and divided the book into seasons. Many people are unaware of the fact that most schools are governed by either a clan (house) system or a class (year) system. Branksome has both. In past years, class pictures have always been taken. This year we decided to substitute larger, formal identified clan pictures for class pictures, and added to the directory the name of the clan each girl belongs to. The other changes that have occurred on a smaller scale are the combined efforts of this year ' s editors, Margy, Sarah, Sheila, Paula, Vicky, Kirsten, Hope, Rebecca, Jenny and Mrs. MacGregor, who have gone to the extremes (chicken bouillon, coffee and tea, cabbage, dry curd cottage cheese, celery, lettuce, fruit, excuses for missing dinner, bagels, muffins, parent-teacher trays, ice cream, peanut butter and jam raids, a.m. pizzas, bottles and O.J., Betty and sleeping bags) to bring you their version of 1981. I hope that this edition of the Slogan will not be just another yearbook. Thank you Cathy, Maureen, Sheila Rae, Fiona, Helen, Laurie, Jill and especially Margy. Sue Farrow 2
