JU IOR SCHOCL PRINCIP L'S ADDRESS I was introduced to a quotation attributed to Dr. Samuel -lohnson. when I was I 5 years old. upon re- ceiving an essay from my teacher of English. On it was written in accompaniment with rather a pitiful grade What is written without effort is in general read without pleasure . and he might well have added and without reward! . I atn reminded of this only because of the great effort I find necessary in order to prof duce annually this short message. I should say that if I was to be treated as are nit students who fail to meet deadlines I would find myself annually on early report. Activities in the Lower School have continued apace as these pages will attest. many of Iast years suc- cesses have been repeated. For example: the visits to the Excelsior Life Concerts at Massey Hall: Ski Day' at Seneca: the junior School plays now involving Grade -I. 5 as well as 7: Norvalz the Contact Theatre visit: the Swimming Gala etc. We have also seen the introduction of some new activities. particularly in the field of Art where Mrs. Grieve has taken our Grade 7 Art group to two exhibitions. the R.O.M.. and a gallery. the McMichael Collection at Kleinberg. and to Harbour front. This widening aspect of our programme has been well received and its resounding success will ensure its permanence in the curriculum. The sports programme under the direction of Messers McMaster and Dunkley has continued to supply varied physical activities to all boys in the lower school on both school and house teams. I was privileged In accompany Mr. Smith and his B team on their visit to Ottawa to take part in the lndep-Schools L'-IS tourna- ment. Teams from Vancouver. Ottawa. Halifax. Winnipeg. Hamilton. St. Catharines. and Toronto took part. and though we did not make the play offs the team gave good account of itself on the field. and was a credit to St. George's College off the field. I cannot put pen to paper and write about school activities without some tnention of the Ladies' Guild and their tremendous support of many Lower School activities. I would like to pay tribute to their kindness in making a generous donation of SI .l00.00 towards the particular swimming programme expenses. enabl- ing us to offer swimming on a year round basis. The hard work carried ull! by Mrs. Knight and her ladies at the annual Ilummage Sale was the main reason for this generous donation. Writing of work and donations. I want to commend all those walkers. 95 per cent of the Lower School who took part in the Canterbury Cathedral Restoration Fund Walkathon. and raised S2.R75.lI0. We were thanked for our efforts by Mr. Roland Michener who made a visit to the school and addressed the Lower School at a special assembly. I will close this message as I began with Dr. -Iohnson who said that. at 77 it is time to he in earnest and hope that the boys of the Lower school will paraphrase that great mans remark to in '77 it is time to be earnest! gl.
