CHOIR NOTES The choir of 1964-65 would like to thank Mrs. Harwood- Jones very much for her patience and understanding in working with us. Under her competent direction, a Junior Choir was formed which relieved the Senior Choir every Wednesday and provided needed volume for our anthems. Wearing our new yellow gowns, we sang at Ashbury and St. Thomas ' . Although it was sometimes a great struggle to get to practices on time, we all tried our best. Sometimes we didn ' t all succeed but we certainly enjoyed the trying. Due to the varied types of music we sang, our musical appreciation has greatly broadened and matured. Thanks again to Mrs, Harwood- Jones for making the Choir such an enjoyable experience for us all. We said good-bye this year to Mrs. Edelsten who has worked with the choir and taught music at Elmwood for the past few years. We were sorry to see her go, but wish her the best of luck.

SUI SANG COMMITTEE A new committee has been formed this year to help raise funds for our foster child Sui Sang, from Hong Kong. On November 27th. we held a successful bazaar, earning money for Sui Sang and his family. It was supported by everyone at Elmwood who contributed various self-made articles. As well as the baking and handicraft sales we had a number of enjoyable games including a loli-pop hoop-la, a money train, a horror house and an exciting raffle. This made the bazaar amusing and fun for all and also helped our worthy cause. Among the class contributions were a bake sale organized by 4A and the publication of a small news- paper by 5C, Every term, we try to send Sui Sang several letters telling him of our surrounding and life in Canada, relating interesting happenings and making him feel part of our family here at Elmwood. We have indeed been successful with our attempt to raise funds. The committee has done much to aid, but the school has given the support. Many thanks to everyone, students and teachers alike for their keen interest and many contributions to help make Sui Sang ' s life an easier and happier one.
