As always, the first term began with the arrival of the Old Boys. On the next day, New Boys arrived and were made to feel at home. The school halls filled with laughter and conversation. Old friends met again and talked of their summer adventures as the new stu- dents unpacked their belongings. Parents met with counsellors and dis- cussed the academic year ahead. After several weeks, New Boys' Day arrived. The school was divided into groups. Places of interest were visited. Groups went to the Pickering Nuclear Plant, the Science Centre, the African Lion Safari and the new Toronto Zoo. Everyone enjoyed himself and was grateful to the Student Committee for organizing the day. ln the evening the movie, Bugs, with Charlton Hes- ton was shown to help everyone sleep 'X X more soundly. ln all, the goal of the day was reachedg we all realized that school could be a home away from home. On October 5, 1975, the weekly Meeting for Worship was a reception service for New Boys. As is the custom at this ser- vice, Allan D. Rogers, the Chairman of the Board, read the following passage from the school Bible: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon the house, and it fell not, for it was built upon a rock. Matthew 7:25 Every New Boy signed the school roll and finally became an Old Boy.
