ARTS ' FESTIVAL The Arts ' Festival was once again a tremendous success. The Fashion Show was produced solely by the Grade 12s and was delightful. The Synchro Show included routines performed by girls from both the Junior and Senior schools. Many thanks and much appreciation must be given to those involved. GRADUATION Despite dismal forecasts, the day of the Senior Graduation could not have been more beautiful. Janice Loudon gave a very touching and inspiring valedictory speech. After the ceremony the grads, students and guests retired to the traditional garden party where popsicles and brownies were abundant.

SPORTS ' DAY It was a time to relax and sprawl across the newly green grass which swathed the lower field. The season was still quite cool so the unathletic majority huddled in their sweaters and thin jackets while those of a more sporting disposition fiercely defied the cold in shorts and assorted colourful shirts. hall-day of freedom lolled about on the grass signing yearbooks, talking, or lazily watching the events. Needless to say, the day was not filled with any spectacular revelations. Darcy Bett and Carol Hood swept up most of the honours. The three- legged race was the most popular in terms of participating contestants. The serious competitors limbered and stretched their muscles, twisting and lunging in order to give their best performance and perhaps win an honour at the upcoming Prize Day. Those who simply wished to linger over the sweet Sports ' Day is one of the highlights of the school year - the beginning of spring, the winding up the last school term and a chance for the athletes to test their strides and the spectators to conserve theirs. m 5a . hay 1 AOrUT TVvIO 12
