Mrs. Guina and Mr. Shumlich presenting Driver Training Certificates DRIVER TRAINING THIS YEAR’S Driver Training Course, with Mr. Shumlich as the in-car instruc¬ tor, and Sister Allan Marie as the classroom instructor, was sponsored by the Convent Safety Council. This course taught the girls the fundamentals of driv¬ ing as well as the mechanics of the vehicle they were operating. We are certain that these twenty-two girls who have successfully completed the course are safer and wiser drivers for having taken the instruction. ’66-’67 CLASS.

The following Saturday evening there was a dance at St. Thomas College with students from COCJ and STC in atten¬ dance. Sunday, February 5, about 50 students turned out for a toboggan party on King Hill. Monday, several students stepped in to take a minor role in teaching classes while the teachers stood by to help out with any serious problems. Monday afternoon we held the Bryant Oratory eliminations. Of the eight contestants competing, ad¬ judicators Father Heilman and Mr. Broley chose Donna Buj- nowski. Her topic was “Canada, It’s Good to be a Canadian.” Treana Quinn was second. Monday night about 80 students turned out for a skating party at the STC Playdium. Tuesday was Clash Day as most of the Students wore clothes that clashed rather than matched. The highlight of Clash Day was a Hootenany and Talent Show held in the evening. Ap¬ proximately 100 girls were present to laugh and sing-a-long with many of the items of entertainment. Wednesday evening featured a swimming party at the new indoor swimming pool. Thursday the girls invaded the Bowlarena for an evening of bowling plus a record hop. The final day of Spirit Week saw some students take on teaching duties once more. Friday night, two mixed teams of boys and girls from COCJ and STC displayed their talents in a heated basketball game at STC. This year, for the first time in Convent history, a Spirit Week was observed. The idea proved both exciting and edu¬ cational and gave everyone a real “boost” in school spirit. It is hoped that this will be continued in future years for it is a mar¬ velous way to bring us closed together in a true feeling of unity.
