EDITORIAL A yearbook is meant to serve as a tangible represen- tation of the school year. However it should not only record the teams, clubs and events, but also capture the spirit and essence of school life. This is the intention of SLOGAN 1984. In keeping with the many changes that have taken place within the school over the past year, the yearbook has changed as well. Perhaps the most obvious changes are the divider pages and cover. Rather than using photographs, we have decided to use the talents of some of Branksome ' s art students. Ruth Beatty ' s drawings, although cartoons, accurately capture many of Branksome ' s different personalities. Jennifer Kim ' s graphic introduction to the Art and Literary section provides contrast to the lighter side of the book. Another significant change occurred in the presentation of the staff pictures. A new section was added, entitled Academics . This section not only includes depart- ment pictures of the staff, but also candids of students and teachers both in and out of the class. W e have focussed more sharply on academics, realizing after all that they are the raison d ' etre behind the Branksome community. All of these changes in structure have been enhanced by the many new layout ideas that have been used throughout the book. These ideas are results of the clever planning and creativity of Ruth Beatty and Emily Stephenson. Section editors, Theresa Hoefenmayer, Marci Hartill, Kathy Kendall and Jennifer Kim, not only collected and organized the material required for their sections, but did the layout as well. Despite recessive business conditions, Valerie Korinek persevered, not only filling the required number of advertising pages, but eventually turning people away. Our photography staff of Sally Pitfield, Sheila Ross, Vicky Peters and Andrea Dinnick took hundreds of terrific pictures, enabling us to include more candid pictures. As you can see, the production of SLOGAN 1984 has been the coUaberated effort of many different people with a variety of talents. We, the staff, feel that this past year has been a vintage one that SLOGAN 1984 will allow you to remember and enjoy for years to come.

PRINCIPAL This has been a year of significant change for Branksomc Hall. The most noticeable is, of course, the acquisition of our new science labs, and the resulting attractive quadrangle which enhances the appearance of our school. Although we have refurbished and reconstructed our properly before, the science wing is the first new building since the former science labs were built in 1956. This year marks the arrival of our long awaited instrumental music program - in grade 7 this year, but expanding to grades 8 and 9 in September 1984. And we are pleased with the addition of our two large music rooms to accommodate both the instrumental and vocal programmes. The school ' s timetable and courses have been ad- justed to enable more students than before to move more quickly through the high school curriculum, a major change, for the choice between a four and five year programme will demand careful thought and wise decisions from parents and students. Not all change is welcome, however. In June we will say goodbye to a great friend of the school, our Dean of Residence, Mrs. Lloyd. Branksome has always been fortunate in the number of people who have been willing to work tirelessly for her with care and love and good humour. Mrs. Lloyd is one of them and we will miss her constant gentleness and warmth. Finally, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the girls of the school, particularly the 1984 graduates, for making this another happy year at Branksome. Allison Roach
