SAMARA 19 Art Notes We had a large collection of colourful pic- tures this year displayed every week by the juniors in the dining room. Under Mrs. Amt- mann, our budding young artists displayed their artistic sense extremely well. The pic- tures were very original and they have ifn- proved a great deal since the beginning of the year. The special Art group, taught by Mr. Hynd- man, labour away every Tuesday, drawing old men, Elmwood girls, or scenes of Sher- wood Forest at the park. The results are usu- ally on the fair side and are occasionally dis- played in the dining room whenever anyone produces a Van Gogh. We were very much pleased Mr. Hyndman could teach us this year but I think that he often wishes he did not have to teach our very strenuous group. The Formal Dance This year our formal dance was held on Friday, April 18. We combined forces with Ashbury to make the biggest and most success- ful formal that has ever been seen within the portals of Elmwood. Freiman ' s decorated the auditorium and the Prefects of both schools laboured for two days with the decorations in the front hall, library, senior classroom and dining room. Cammy Howard ' s excellent orchestra supplied the music and the Mothers ' Guild donated de- licious refreshments. We would like to take this opportunity to thank all those at Ashbury who so kindly co- operated with us. Debating This year our inter-class debating was very successful. The classes from 5C to 6M took part. The 6 Uppers do not participate because they are supposed to be the best. The helpful hints from Miss Leonard were appreciated and the topics were good. 5B won over 5C, and 5A over 6M. That left 5 A to debate 5B. We had, to judge the debate, Miss Cairine Wilson. The negative 5A proved that Radio is not detrimental to society. Jennifer Wooll- combe, leader, Sandra McKee and Jo-Anne Davis were the three who debated for 5 A and Sheila McCormick, leader of the affirmative, with an outstanding rebuttal, Janet Chapman and Tish Heeney argued for 5B. The debate was excellent and very even, but we were glad to see that 5 A took the prize. Squa re Dance This year the Intermediate School planned a Square Dance for Ma.y 16. They hired an orchestra for the occasion, under Roger Boulliere, which provided the suitable music for a Square Dance. Round dancing was in the front hall for those needing a rest and some nice soothing music! It was an unqualified success. Ballet Notes Under the able instruction of Erna Pilupe, Elmwood ' s young ballet enthusiasts have im- proved greatly. Our thanks to Mrs. Earl for accompanying us on the piano. 1, 2, 3, 4 can be heard echoing from the halls of the gym every Friday afternoon, as the hard working ballet pupils proceed with their exercises. There is to be a Ballet Recital held this year, but the date is not as yet determined. Efii Malamackie and Sheila McCormick are proving very talented with their grace and technique. Courtesy of J. Lawson, the floor has developed a slight squeak! Music Notes Mr. McTavish is still with us valiantly attempting to teach our aspiring musicians. A great deal of interest have been evinced by the younger members of the school; and most of the girls have been doing good work. The morning service has been greatly added to by the playing of the morning hymn by Margaret Boehm, Pat Knowkon and Wendy Quain. Jill Edward should also be given a note of praise for trying to keep the boarding school in tune at the supper grace. During this past term Mrs. Graham has very kindly had some choir robes made for us. We made an appearance before the assembled parents of the girls at the presentation of the Junior Plays.
