NEW TEACHERS No teachers left the Junior or Preparatory Departments last July, but this September we welcome back MRS KAY WALKER as an additional full-time teacher. Mrs. Walker ' s time will be divided betwe en the two Departments, continuing and developing her reading programmes in the Junior School, and helping to combat the numbers problem at Cavendish. Increasing numbers in the Senior School allow us to have an extra teacher as well as the three replacements. The extra man is MR. E. REID KEMPE, a Bermudian, whom many of you will know. He holds an English degree from Swarthmore, in the States, and a P.G.C.E. at London University. As a second English teacher, Mr. Kempe allows the same sort of possibilities in this important subject as we managed last year with the Mathematics; it also allows Mr. Duncan to devote all his energies to his music and will give Mr. Tim Smith a little more time for his duties as Librarian. MR. PAUL MORRIS comes to teach Geography and Economics, taking over from Mr. Payne, who has been with us, unfortunately, only a year. He holds a B.Sc. in these two subjects from the University of Hull, and has taught for two years at Rainsford School, Chelmsford. MR. DAVID MORRISON, with a B.A. (Hons) and P.G.C.E. from the University of Wales, comes to take over the Spanish teaching from Mr. Alan Bestford. Mr. Collins ' successor in charge of Physics is MR. DAVID ROBERTS, B.Sc.(Hons), University of Birmingham, who has been Head of Department in a large comprehensive school. Mr. Roberts has two sons, who will be enrolling at Saltus; Mr. Kempe, Mr. Morris, and Mr. Morrison all married during the summer. Indeed this seems to be something of a nuptial year for Saltus since Bruce Lines. Henr Ziegler and Penny Cross are also to be congratulated on their recent weddings.

SENIOR YEAR Inevitably there were some disappointments. With the new ranking and requirements for graduation, two students failed ' to graduate — and their failure was really self-imposed. There were not the enormous discipline problems of the previous year, but there were the niggling problems of lateness and attire. There was not as much studying done as we would have liked, and it became obvious by the time of the final examinations that next year a tighter rein will have to be held in this area. I must thank the staffs of both schools for their co-operation. Jean Myerscough, who took over some of the administra- tive duties from B.H.S. was of enormous assistance and next year, when she is the official form mistress, T look forward to even smoother coordination. But I cannot get away from the students. They were very diverse in terms of backgrounds, philosophies, and personali- ties. Somehow they came together in an open-ended gestalt and it worked. Yesterday I went into the Gibbons Room — the Senior Year Common Room which has added so much to the programme. It was a very eerie feeling looking at a room suddenly almost totally devoid of personality but soon I could hear the voices as I found odd souvenirs from the group like an old shoe (Del?), the odd cigarette packet (Peter or Shaun?), a boxing glove (Ray?), a guitar (Macdonald?). Many of the staff have told me how great the students were. Some of the staff student relationships became quite close as we instituted an advisor programme in which the student picked a staff member to oversee him or her in addition to ' the work that I did with the students. This proved quite useful as both got to know each other as human beings and perhaps this is one reason why the students were complimented so in the past few days as they graduated.
