Glzapter Cgwo KELLY LIFE . . . four unforgettable Christmases at Kelly, with Christmas carols at the tree. Band music in the lunchroom, the G.A.A. carol sing, and parties and merrymaking here and there in the building, memories that will come surging back. Four big evenings the doors of the school were opened so that parents and community could come to see the schools of the year and how they operate. Another event too momentous to run more than once a year was the Community Council Dance, an event arranged for the benefit of the school, often in a hall so crowded with loyal Brighton Parkers that dancing room was at a pre- mium. The pictures that follow and the calendar bring to life again our high-school memories. We say, These days were ours , and of this record we say, This is ours for always. Page 28
