The first day of school is always one of excitement and the first day of school at Sion was no exception.. There were old friends to welcome back and new friends to make. Shown here are members of the Sophomore class busily discussing events of the first day of school. On Registration Day, old and new students alike poured into the new school. There was an air of excitement, rarely seen as the stu- dents surveyed their new surround- ings for the year. Every nook and cranny of the new building was ex- plored, and all of the students heartily approved. The students quickly became accustomed to the routine of the school days beginning for many with a ride to school in the morning on the big yellow school bus and ending when the final bell rang for dismissal at 3:45 in the afternoon. Shown entering school are, LEFT TO RIGHT: Kathy Wolff, Jane Stickney, Claudia Williams, Judy Irby, and Jan Flynn. 7 Bishop Helmsing Blesses Gur New School - September 8, I962 i 4, 1 4. .hy , X.

Bonne Fete, Ma Mere l w l L 1 I In tribute to all that she has done for the school and the students, Notre Mere is annually feasted on a special day set aside for her.

Sherrill Mulhern directed the play. 14 'N f Lure of the Stage Calls Sionians One of arts that Sion girls find interesting and attractive is drama. The age-old smell of grease paint, the discovery of an ingenious talent for costume designing, the ability to lose one's own personality in developing a character of different perspective.., all add charm to the theater. Even an opportunity to be a bit of a Ham in an accepted sense lends fun to the occasion. Sion girls are no longer sur- prised to discover the tremendous sense of solidarity that being in a play produces with the cast whether the leading lady or a stage hand. Each is dependent upon the other to produce a well-done play. lf one cog breaks, the total production suffers. So while we have fun, we continue to learn. The burlap gowned chorus line is really some of the Junior Class depicting cave-woman fashions as part of their hilarious as- sembly program.

Sionians Celebrate Christmas With the beginning of Advent, Sion 'students began preparation for the coming of Christ at Christmas. Daily, the beauti- ful suspended Advent Wreath was lighted in the auditorium. The days sped by bring- ing an ever-increasing awareness of Christmas both in the blessed spirit which the Sisters work hard to instill and also in the holiday spirit of fun and festivity. A Christmas pageant presented by the Sophomore Class, Christmas songs, a special Christmas Concert for parents and friends, caroling on the Plaza, the nnew creche in our lovely new Chapel.., all made our first Christmas in the new school ia thing of joy. hr Singing carols in the Plaza is a Kansas City traditon and the girls W from ur Lady of Sion did their part to spread Christmas cheer to the scurrying shoppers.

Enjoying the Banquet are Romans Peggy McMahon, Channie Massy, Vickie Peek, Annette Lindsay, and Chris Miller. Each person was required to wear a costume typical of Roman times. The variety and originality of the many costumes 'showed the talent and creativity of the girls. Shown to the left is a group of Romans modeling their costumes. Playing key roles in the Seder meal are Lynn Rosenberg, Sherrill Mulhern, Mary Petersen and Jayne Stickney. In a more serious vein, the Sophomores staged a Jewish Seder during the Lenten season. The religion class studied the meaning of the meal and presented it as it actually is presented today. This meal was an attempt to gain more insight and understanding of the Jewish people and their customs. Shown left are Miss Pretz, Father Guillot, and Mrs. Watkins.
