A hush fell over the auditorium as a proud and radiant group of graduands made their appearance. The music started and with it the procession of 3$ graduands slowly entered in breathXaking splendour to begin the dance with the grand march. The first dance was a waltz reserved for the graduands•only, the fleoond, for the parents and the graduands, and the third the graduands and their escorts. Then the music took on a lively tempo and young and old surged out onto the dance floor. Through out the evening couples danced to the excellent arrangements presented by the Rythum Rouges”. Finally after lunch and a final waltz everyone left vowing they had never enjoyed thercselves so much and expressing desires and intensions to return next year to the gala event.

GRADUATION Everyone rose as thirty-eight graduands took their places in St. Albans Hall to begin the fourth Composite graduation. Our M.C. Gerald Harrison called on Miss Janice Kubin to say grace after which a turkey supper was served. We were honored to have Sharon Skotheim and Diane Paul start the exercises with two songs. The audience soundly applauded and the two girls came back later in the program for another selection. Toasts were presented to the Queen, Dep’t of Education, School Board, Graduands, the school and the parents by various top students. The main feature of the exercises was the introduction of the graduands by our Vice-Principal, Mr. A.Prytula. Glennie Krakowetz gave the Valedictory.

Chosen from grade ten were Wendy Frith and Sherryl Soles. Topping grade eleven was David Paul and Wilfred Reynish. Glennie Krakowetz and Slyvia Krechowec won from grade twelve. The banquet ended with a farewell song, Now is the Hour , sung by the graduands. After the banquet all graduands and their escorts preceeded to our school auditorium for the grand finali. Never before was the auditorium so colorfully displayed contributing to a lively dancing mood for all. Blue and white streamers flowed out from a large silver star in the center of the ceiling. Smaller silver stars and blue stars bearing the names of the grads, hung from the streamers. When the lights were turned out and the orchestra played a dreamy waltz, a moonlight mood was shared by all when the tiny blue lights, outlining a large star in the center of the auditorium, were flicked on. The beautiful silver streamer s which adorned the stage also added a brilliance to the decorations that set the perfect atmosphere for a perfect evening.
