I MRS. WHITE ' S REPORT Although enrolment this year is at a record high of 355, Elmwood remains in spirit a small school, where teachers and students can maintain close relationships. We still all know one another by name. The addition of a grade one class means that we now offer a full primary program in the Junior School. A welcome benefit of our expansion at this grade level has been an increase in opportunities for senior students to assume a wider variety of leadership roles both under the guidance of teachers in the primary classrooms, and within the Houses. In the senior school, our increased numbers have enabled students and staff to develop more extra-curricular clubs and interest groups. Students have frequently surprised themselves this year, discovering hitherto unknown talents in Pottery, Photography and Dressmaking. They have perfected skills in Classics, Math, Drama, Debating and Science clubs, Band and Choir and have exercised on Rowing, Volleyball and Basketball squads. All these groups have fostered friendships and developed skills beyond the classroom and have encouraged students to grow in confidence and competence. Programs of social outreach have continued to grow, both within the House System and from academic courses. The houses have introduced speakers, raised funds, and lent practical support to a variety of projects. Keller ' s Guide Dog Project, Nightingale ' s work for Ronald MacDonald House, the Elizabeth Fry Society and the Wilson Match project have all been organised on student initiative. Awareness of Canada ' s role in the world has been enhanced by programs initiated by social studies projects throughout the school, such as the grade 5 6 Twinning project in Jamaica, the Cansave Valentine Tree, the Commonwealth Conference and the International Student Exchange program. It is our firm belief that participation in and observation of these programs heightens social awareness and provides opportunities for students to acquire valuable organization, leadership and public speaking skills. If it is true that nothing worth learning can be taught, then I hope that Elmwood has provided every student with ample op- portunities to learn by participating actively in academic pursuits, in social and athletic activities and in service.
