ting on the platform, men like the Bursar whom I see in the audience, the men and women who work behind the scenes - working for long hours with patience and devotion in the interests of the boys. I am absolutely convinced that the factors which make the School in the final analysis are the unselfishness and the efforts of these people. As there are over fifty people on the teaching, administrative and domestic staff of this School, I cannot thank them all individually as I would like. However, I would like you and them to know that the loyalty of these people and their devotion to the School mean more to me than anything else here, because this in fact is what is essential if we are to make this into a first-class school - and for this support I am deeply grateful. At this point too I would like to express my most sincere appreciation to our Board of Govern ors for their genuine interest and invaluable help. We in this School are particularly fortunate in having on our Board the happy combination of wisdom, vision, enthusiasm and courage. Moreover, considering the way in which they deal with me and my many requests, I should underline also their tolerance. In any event I would like to say most sincerely to our Governors, how very grateful I am to all of them for the outstanding service which they are rendering to the School. It would appear that spiritually, morally, intellectually and physically, the School is in quite good shape. However, in my opinion, in all these aspects we still have a long way to go. We must aim to produce a more rigorous, balanced and constructive training: a training in the disciplines of the mind, body and spirit, to produce a keen and developed intellect, a broad and cultured mind, a sound physique, a character that will not stoop to meanness or discourtesy or slovenliness in standards, and above all a true understanding of the mean- ing of life, in which the reverence of God is the beginning of wisdom . Any real success the School has achieved in the past has ultimately been dependent upon these convictions, and they will remain as the traditional values by which we stand, and by which we shall set our course in the challenging years of change which lie ahead. n 16
