BOYS’ VOLLEYBALL As usual, challenges were hurled around the school, with each grade trying to prove its supremacy over all the others on the volleyball courts. However, the best grade prevailed, as Grade XI walked off with top honours by defeating all the other grades which dared to challenge them. However, Grade XI boys could not entirely prevail against the staff. In the first set played, the boys won straight matches, but in the next set, the staff won two games out of three.

The captains were Ruth Kurtz, May Edwards, Shirley Fredlund and Sharon Rink. These teams competed until Ruth Kurtz’s team was victorious.
