Once again, the lilacs are blooming at Elmwood and the members of the Samara Committee sense that the end of their task is approaching. As before, the Committee has asked me (but twice this year) to write a few words for this edition of the yearbook. I wonder if the members of any other Elmwood committee learn as much about other people, managing and delegating. It would be much simpler I am sure, for them to just write the material they require themselves. Hopefully, at least, some of the school was co-operative. Elmwood is completing another busy and suc- cessful year. This yearbook deals with exactly what we did and when we did it. It is a testimonial to the fact that we played with the zeal and excellence with which we have always approached academic life. This yearbook also represents one year in your life and will bring back happy memories, next year and for many years after that. 3. iUh aJxiuL After fifteen years as head of the Junior School, what can I find to tell you that is different from the other years? . . . continued growth, continued striv- ing to make Elmwood the place where each stu- dent may discover that learning is an exciting, life- long occupation . . . Mrs. Kry ' s recorder group was rewarded for its dedication and excellence with a trip to Toronto to perform for five Toronto schools and to have lunch at the CN Tower. In an exchange of students Valerie FRANCO and Stephanie COLOMBO from Nancy, France visited Melanie Quevillon and Meredith Nelson for six weeks and attended our grade eight classes. In mid-May Melanie and Meredith flew to France with their guests to enjoy a six week French experience. Each year brings new challenges and new students. Perhaps the greatest joy of the ac- cumulated years of teaching is the thrill of seeing young students, who come into the school as hesti- tant fledglings, develop into poised and confident young girls and women. We are indeed proud of you, and so happy to see you return to tell us of your accomplishments. I hope that you will feel that Elmwood has had some part in helping you set worthwhile goals and to realize them.

Another busy and eventful year has flown by, as these pages will attest. The strength of an Idependent School like Elmwood depends on the col- lective efforts and goodwill of innumerable groups and individuals. The in- teraction between the Board of Governors, administration and faculty, parents, students. Old Girls, the Ministry of Education and the community at large, make for an exciting and lively atmosphere in which to plan and implement educational policy. This has been a very exciting year and each of these groups has worked hard to ensure Elmwood ' s continuing growth. Our campaign to complete the Development Plan started in 1983 is well under way and we are all excited at the prospect of changing our dreams of a gymnasium and new teaching facilities into reality. You the students have contributed most generously through the Penny Campaign, and various fundraisers, and your pride and commitment are remarkable. This is your school and it is gratifying to see you taking an active role in its future. I hope your year was a happy one, in which you set and attained some personal goals that you will remember when you turn to these pages some years hence.
